'''Ash's Lycanroc''' (Japanese: '''サトシのルガルガン''' ''Satoshi's Lugarugan'') is the second {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that {{Ash}} {{pkmn2|caught}} in the [[Alola]] [[region]], and his forty-ninth overall. Before being caught by Ash, it lived with {{an|Professor Kukui}}, although it was never officially Kukui's Pokémon.

==In the anime==
===History===
====''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]''====
=====Under Professor Kukui's care=====
[[File:Ash Rockruff.png|thumb|left|250px|As a Rockruff]]
Lycanroc, as a Rockruff, was a [[wild Pokémon]] that stumbled across {{an|Professor Kukui}}'s house one day. It was starving and left {{status|Confusion|confused}} from another Pokémon's {{m|Teeter Dance}}. Professor Kukui gave it some [[Pokémon food]], which made Rockruff decide to stay at Kukui's house. From then on, Rockruff lived with Kukui, although he never {{pkmn2|caught}} it in a [[Poké Ball]].

Rockruff first appeared in ''[[SM002|The Guardian's Challenge!]]'', where it had dinner and played with Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}}. It was later seen the following day with Professor Kukui, watching the welcoming party {{ashcl|Ash's classmates}} had prepared for him. Kukui had planned to battle Ash and Pikachu with Rockruff, but the party was interrupted by {{DL|Guardian deities (anime)|Tapu Koko}}, who challenged Ash to a battle instead.

In ''[[SM015|Rocking Clawmark Hill!]]'', Rockruff came home injured, causing Ash and Professor Kukui to investigate the reason behind its injuries. This led them to [[Clawmark Hill]], where they discovered that Rockruff had been fighting with other wild Pokémon, including a {{p|Magmar}}. With Ash's help, Rockruff was able to master {{m|Rock Throw}}, which helped it defeat Magmar. At the end of the episode, Professor Kukui encouraged Ash to catch Rockruff after seeing the bond the two had developed.

=====With Ash=====
In ''[[SM019|A Guardian Rematch!]]'', Lycanroc, as a Rockruff, was used in its first official battle, in which it faced [[Hiroki]] and his {{p|Mudbray}}. During the battle, Rockruff performed {{m|Breakneck Blitz}} for the first time, which was able to defeat Mudbray.

In ''[[SM027|A Glaring Rivalry!]]'', Rockruff was seen training with [[Ash's Rowlet]] and {{AP|Litten}}. Later, it witnessed its evolved form {{TP|Gladion|Lycanroc}} winning a battle against a {{p|Blastoise}}, which greatly impressed it. Ash later used Rockruff in his battle against {{an|Gladion}} in which it battled Lycanroc. Rockruff got quickly overwhelmed by Lycanroc's great speed and fierce moves, but was still able to battle. The battle was then interrupted by {{TRT}}, who captured Pikachu and Lycanroc.
[[File:Ash and Lycanroc.png|thumb|250px|Lycanroc and Ash]]
In ''[[SM036|Trials and Determinations!]]'', Rockruff was used in the [[Akala Island]] grand trial alongside Rowlet, battling [[Olivia's Lycanroc]] and {{p|Probopass}}. Despite their opponents giving them tough times with their combination tactics, Rowlet eventually managed to defeat Probopass with {{m|Bloom Doom}}. Unfortunately, Rockruff, who was acting aggressively, was so desperate to battle Lycanroc by itself that it impulsively used {{m|Bite}} against Rowlet, accidentally knocking it out. Despite this setback, Ash encouraged Rockruff to use its fighting spirit, allowing it to outrun and defeat Lycanroc, thus earning Ash a [[Rockium Z]]. Professor Kukui and Olivia then revealed to Ash that Rockruff's behavior was a sign that it was going to [[evolution|evolve]] soon.

In ''[[SM037|Rising from the Ruins!]]'', Rockruff went off by itself to train after remembering the aggression it demonstrated during Olivia's grand trial. While training, it encountered {{DL|Guardian deities (anime)|Tapu Lele}}, who challenged it to a battle. Rockruff was no match for the [[guardian deities|guardian deity]], however, and was easily beaten. When Ash found Rockruff, he tried to stop it from running away again, but failed. The next day, Rockruff was walking on a cliffside when it got startled by a {{p|Fearow}}, causing it to fall down into a river. The injured Puppy Pokémon was later found by Olivia and Gladion's Lycanroc, who brought it to the [[Ruins of Life]], where Tapu Lele resided. When Ash, Professor Kukui, and Olivia arrived at the ruins, Tapu Lele used {{m|Draining Kiss}} to drain Ash and the two Lycanroc's energy, which it then used to heal Rockruff's wounds. Afterwards, Rockruff went to the edge of a cliff and began to howl as the setting sun {{wp|Green flash|turned green}}. It then evolved into {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Lycanroc|Dusk Form}} Lycanroc, after which it got happily embraced by its Trainer and the rest of Ash's party.

In ''[[SM038|Mimikyu Unmasked!]]'', Ash had Lycanroc use {{m|Continental Crush}} against Team Rocket, but the attack failed. After another attempt, Professor Kukui gave him some advice, which led to Ash training with {{an|Kiawe}} and his {{TP|Kiawe|Turtonator}}. When Team Rocket showed up again and [[Jessie]] challenged Ash to a battle with her {{TP|Jessie|Mimikyu}}, Lycanroc mastered Continental Crush and sent Team Rocket blasting off, much to their surprise.
[[File:Ash Lycanroc berserk.png|thumb|left|250px|Lycanroc going berserk after discovering its fur is dirty]]
In ''[[SM047|A Masked Warning!]]'', Ash discovered while washing Lycanroc that it was so proud of its appearance that it would fly into a rage and attack if its fur got dirty. Lycanroc attacked {{AP|Litten}} and Litten fought back, with Ash placing himself between his two errant Pokémon. This helped Lycanroc to calm down, and it was very apologetic towards Ash. Later, Ash used Lycanroc to battle Gladion's {{p|Type: Null}}, nicknamed Silvally, where it was outmatched by its opponent sheer power. During the battle Lycanroc was thrown into a nearby lake which drenched its fur, causing another rage during which it refused to listen to Ash's commands. Despite this, Silvally was still the stronger opponent and Lycanroc was easily held at bay before it could regain control of itself. After Lycanroc recovered, Ash and Gladion decided to continue the battle, but despite its best efforts, Lycanroc couldn't stand up to the power of Silvally's {{m|Crush Claw}} and was defeated.

In ''[[SM053|Rescuing the Unwilling!]]'', Lycanroc fought alongside {{an|Lillie}}'s {{p|Vulpix}}, [[Snowy]], against [[Lusamine's Clefable]], which was under {{DL|Ultra Beasts (anime)|Nihilego}}'s control. It saved Lillie from Clefable's {{m|Moonblast}} with an {{m|Accelerock}}. After Lycanroc knocked back Clefable with a {{m|Rock Throw}}, Lillie reminded Clefable of the Clefairy doll they used to play with together, in order to free it from Nihilego's command. When Clefable began powering up a move, Lillie gestured Lycanroc and Snowy not to attack before freeing Clefable with a simple embrace.

In ''[[SM074|Tough Guy Trials!]]'', Lycanroc was used to battle [[Nanu]], going up against his {{p|Krookodile}}. During the battle, Nanu had Krookodile deliberately anger Lycanroc, even going so far as to make it go berserk by dirtying its fur with {{m|Mud-Slap}}. Despite the furious attacks in its angered state, Lycanroc was defeated after Krookodile used {{m|Counter}} to send it flying before finishing it off with {{m|Crunch}}. Afterwards, at [[Acerola]]'s library, Lycanroc sulked over its defeat. It was cheered up after Ash asked Acerola to help him find a place where he could train for a rematch with Nanu.

In ''[[SM075|Some Kind of Laziness!]]'', Acerola took Ash to see {{DL|Guardian deities (anime)|Tapu Bulu}} at the [[Ruins of Abundance]] so it could help him train. After some time, the duo managed to meet with Tapu Bulu and convince it to help them. At one point during their stay, it began raining, so Tapu Bulu decided to knock Lycanroc into a nearby pond, dirtying its fur and making it go berserk. By reminding Lycanroc of its time as a Rockruff and the bond they share, Ash finally managed to calm Lycanroc down. Impressed by this act, Tapu Bulu decided to battle Lycanroc. Though Tapu Bulu proved to be a powerful opponent, Lycanroc learned {{m|Stone Edge}} during the battle, after which Tapu Bulu called the battle off.

In ''[[SM077|Guiding an Awakening!]]'', Ash faced Nanu in a grand trial battle, but was only allowed to use Lycanroc against all three of Nanu's Pokémon. After managing to defeat Nanu's Krookodile and {{p|Sableye}}, it went up against Nanu's {{rf|Alolan}} {{p|Persian}}. Throughout the battle, Nanu used his previous strategy of angering Lycanroc so that it would go into its red-eyed state. Ash, worried that Lycanroc could go berserk again, kept telling it to keep calm throughout the battle. Nanu, realizing the truth of the situation, decided to anger Ash himself by mocking his skill as a Trainer. In order to calm its Trainer down, Lycanroc chose to tackle Ash, revealing that it was in complete control of itself the entire time. Realizing that he let his anger and frustration from Nanu's insults go to his head, Ash apologized to Lycanroc and continued the battle. After an exchange of Z-Moves with Persian as well as its newly learned {{m|Counter}}, Lycanroc won the battle, allowing Ash to win a [[Lycanium Z]].

In ''[[SM078|Twirling with a Bang!]]'', while on the group's third [[Ultra Guardians]] mission, Ash decided to use Lycanroc's new Z-Move to weaken the {{an|Ultra Beasts}} they were facing, {{p|Blacephalon}} and {{p|Xurkitree}}, while they were distracted by the performance provided by the group's other Pokémon. After the successfully executed {{m|Splintered Stormshards}} had left the two Ultra Beasts momentarily vulnerable, {{an|Lana}} and Lillie were able to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} them and thus complete the mission.

In ''[[SM090|Securing the Future!]]'', Lycanroc joined the rest of Alola in showering {{DL|Light trio (anime)|Necrozma}} with light so it could return to its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|normal form}}.

In ''[[SM105|Showdown on Poni Island!]]'', Ash used Lycanroc during his battle against Gladion and his own Lycanroc. Gladion's Lycanroc was able to withstand Splintered Stormshards before defeating Ash's Lycanroc with {{m|Devastating Drake}}.

In ''[[SM139|Enter the Champion!]]'', Ash used Lycanroc as his final Pokémon against Gladion and his own Lycanroc during the finals of the [[Manalo Conference]]. Ash's Lycanroc's attempts to get close to Gladion's Lycanroc were repeatedly intercepted by Counter and Stone Edge. After powering itself up with {{m|Swords Dance}}, Gladion's Lycanroc got close enough to attack with {{m|Outrage}}, only to get confused and bite its left arm. Ash had his Lycanroc take this opportunity to attack, only for Gladion's Lycanroc to retaliate with Counter, revealing it bit itself to snap itself out of the confusion. Ash had his Lycanroc rush in with Accelerock, hoping to land one final blow. Gladion had his Lycanroc intercept with one more Counter, but just as it connected, Ash had his Lycanroc use Counter as well. This sent Gladion's Lycanroc flying into the wall and subsequently knocking it out, thus winning Ash the battle and the championship.

In ''[[SM141|Exhibition Unmasked!]]'', Lycanroc was Ash's second Pokémon used during his exhibition battle against Professor Kukui, replacing {{AP|Torracat}} in the confrontation against [[Professor Kukui's Incineroar]] after Ash [[recall]]ed it. When Incineroar used {{m|Darkest Lariat}} to stop Lycanroc's Stone Edge, Ash had Lycanroc grab one of the shards of the broken Stone Edge with its mouth and use it to attack Incineroar. The plan worked, allowing Lycanroc to deal the first bit of [[damage]] to Incineroar in the battle. Kukui then chose to recall Incineroar and send out {{p|Braviary}} in its place, while Ash chose to stick with Lycanroc. Their battle properly commenced in the [[SM142|next episode]]. While Lycanroc was able to endure a {{m|Sky Drop}} and deal some damage to its opponent, the [[Pokémon category|Wolf Pokémon]] was eventually defeated by a super effective {{m|Superpower}}.

In ''[[SM145|Dreams of the Sun and Moon!]]'', Ash used Lycanroc in a battle against Kiawe and his {{TP|Kiawe|Charizard}}. Following a collision between Splintered Stormshards and {{m|Inferno Overdrive}}, Lycanroc emerged victorious.

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

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

===Personality and characteristics===
[[File:Ash Lycanroc Gladion Lycanroc.png|thumb|250px|With [[Gladion's Lycanroc]]]]
[[File:Ash Lycanroc red eyes.png|thumb|250px|left|Lycanroc in full control of its red-eyed state]]
Lycanroc is normally a playful, affectionate Pokémon that gets along well with both Ash and its previous caretaker, Professor Kukui. The first night Ash stayed with the Professor, Rockruff, Pikachu, and Ash were quickly able to befriend each other. As a Rockruff, like other members of its species, it likes to greet and show affection to others by rubbing up against them with the rocks on its neck, although it doesn't seem to be aware that it stings the recipient. Its affectionate personality was also shown in ''[[SM045|Now You See Them, Now You Don't!]]'', where, despite the fact that {{AP|Litten}} was angry toward it whilst eating and whilst relaxing at home, it continued to eat and smiled back at Litten respectively. Lycanroc appears to take its failures rather personally. As a Rockruff in ''[[SM036|Trials and Determinations!]]'', after knocking out {{AP|Rowlet}} in a fit of anger, it immediately came to its senses and regretted what it had done, and, despite ultimately winning against [[Olivia]], was still visibly upset in [[SM037|the next episode]]. At the end of ''[[SM074|Tough Guy Trials!]]'', Lycanroc was seen sulking in the corner of [[Acerola]]'s house after losing its battle with [[Nanu]]'s {{p|Krookodile}}, prompting Ash to give it a pep talk.

Although Rockruff lived with Professor Kukui before being caught by Ash, it was actually a [[wild Pokémon]] that Professor Kukui was taking care of. When Ash revealed this to his classmates at the [[Pokémon School]], {{Rotom}} added that Rockruff readily bond with humans even if they are not captured by a {{pkmn|Trainer}}. After evolving, Lycanroc started taking great pride in its fur, as shown in ''[[SM047|A Masked Warning!]]'', and is shown to enjoy being groomed and taking baths despite being a {{type|Rock}}, as observed by Rotom. However, if angered enough, such as when its fur gets dirty, Lycanroc's eyes turned red, and it would fly into a rage, lashing out at whomever it thought was responsible. When this happened, Lycanroc became [[obedience|disobedient]] and ignored Ash's commands. This weakness caused problems later during Ash's battle with Gladion and {{TP|Gladion|Silvally}}, and was later the cause of its defeat at the hands of Nanu and his Krookodile in ''Tough Guy Trials!''. In ''[[SM075|Some Kind of Laziness!]]'', Lycanroc was able to overcome this destructive habit with the help of Ash and the bond the two shared, remembering a memory it had when it played in the mud happily with Ash and Pikachu when it was still a Rockruff. After this, Lycanroc no longer goes berserk when its fur is dirtied, as seen in ''[[SM076|A Battle Hand-Off!]]'', where it got a bit of mud on its face and only reacted with disappointment. In ''[[SM077|Guiding an Awakening!]]'', Lycanroc was revealed to have gained full control of its red-eyed state, allowing it to use it as a boost of power.

Lycanroc has a strong sense of smell as a Rockruff, which has been used to help find {{AP|Rowlet}} and {{TP|Lana|Popplio}}, Ash's missing [[Electrium Z]] and [[DJ Leo]]'s {{p|Dugtrio}}. In the [[Poké Problem]] segment of ''[[SM047|A Masked Warning!]]'', it is revealed that Ash and Pikachu had to rely on Lycanroc's nose to guide them back from [[Ten Carat Hill]] after {{an|Light trio|Nebby}} had fallen asleep. In ''[[SM048|Night of a Thousand Poses!]]'' and ''[[SM049|Mission: Total Recall!]]'', Lycanroc tends to spar with Litten on occasion, even when it is separated from its Trainer.

==In the games==
===In the core series===
[[Professor Kukui]] appears to own several Rockruff and Lycanroc in the games. He uses a Rockruff in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon]] to help with the capture, [[Z-Move]], and [[Battle Royal]] tutorials. He also uses a Midday Form Lycanroc in his battles against the {{player}} at the {{al|Pokémon League}}, a Midnight Form Lycanroc as the Masked Royal, and both forms in the Battle Tree in {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}. Another Rockruff can be seen in [[Alola Route 1|Professor Kukui's Lab]].

'''Radio programs''' are known to be broadcast in the [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] [[region]]s of the [[Pokémon world]]. Most radio stations are hosted by [[DJ]]s and are broadcast by the Johto Radio Broadcasting Network from [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]] or by the Kanto Radio Broadcasting Network in [[Pokémon Tower|Lavender Radio Tower]] in Kanto.

==In the games==
Radio functionality is included in the [[Pokégear]], which is featured in the Johto-based games {{game5|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}.

===Lucky Number Show===
The '''Lucky Number Show''' (Japanese: '''ラッキーナンバーキャンペーン''' ''Lucky Number Campaign'') is a radio program hosted by {{DL|DJ|Reed}} on the '''Lucky Channel''' (Japanese: '''ラッキーチャンネル''' ''Lucky Channel'') from the Goldenrod Radio Tower in [[Goldenrod City]] in Generation II.

The station broadcasts in Johto on channel 8.5. The channel broadcasts a random [[Original Trainer|OT]] [[Trainer ID number|ID number]] which changes every {{DL|Days of the week|Friday}}. During the week, the player can visit the Radio Tower and talk to a man on the first floor. If any of the player's Pokémon in the [[party]] or in the [[Pokémon Storage System]] have an OT ID that in whole or in part matches the ID number for the week, they will receive a prize. The player may only receive a prize once per week, even if they have multiple Pokémon with winning IDs. The lucky numbers for the week are randomly generated the first time the player speaks with the man on the first floor of the Radio Tower.

The possible prizes are:
{{Itlisth|building}}
{{itemlist|PP Up|Trainer ID matched last two digits only|G=yes|S=yes|C=yes}}
{{itemlist|Exp. Share|Trainer ID matched last three or four digits only|G=yes|S=yes|C=yes}}
{{itemlist|Master Ball|Trainer ID matched exactly|G=yes|S=yes|C=yes}}
{{Itlistfoot|building}}

While the program is no longer broadcast in Generation IV, the [[Pokémon Lottery Corner|drawing itself]] remains on the Radio Tower's ground floor, changing daily, rather than weekly, and with the same prizes as the drawings in [[Hoenn]] and [[Sinnoh]].

===Mysterious Transmission===
When the player is at the [[Ruins of Alph]], strange noises will play and there will be no reception from other stations.

In [[Generation II]], it can be heard on channel 13.5. In [[Generation IV]], it also increases the chance of encountering an {{p|Unown}} form the player has not yet encountered, and sounds similar to the [[Azure Flute]]. It can be heard if the radio is tuned to somewhere in the center.

===Poké Flute===
The station plays [[Poké Flute]] music that is used to awaken {{p|Snorlax}}. It requires the [[Pokégear#Radio|EXPN Card]] upgrade.

In Generation II, it can be heard on channel 20.0. In Generation IV, it only plays in the [[Celadon Game Corner]] and the [[Goldenrod Game Corner]]. It can be heard if the radio is tuned near the top, above stations 1 and 2.

===Pokédex Show===
The '''Pokédex Show''' (Japanese: '''よくわかる　ポケモンずかん''' ''The Pokédex Made Simple'') is a radio show available in Johto in Generation II. It operates on radio frequency 4.5 from 4 AM to 10 AM each day. All the other times, [[#Professor Oak's Pokémon Talk|Professor Oak's Pokémon Talk]] is broadcasted on that frequency. This show is not hosted by any known DJ. The Pokédex Show randomly broadcasts Pokédex descriptions out of the Pokémon that the player has caught and stored in the Pokédex.

===Pokémon Music===
The '''Pokémon Music Channel''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンミュージックチャンネル''' ''Pokémon Music Channel'') broadcasts different pieces of music on different [[days of the week]], each with different effects. In Pokémon Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver, the [[Pokégear#Radio|EXPN Card]] is required to listen to the Kanto station.

In Generation II, the program differs between Johto and Kanto. In Johto, the program is known as '''Pokémon Music''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンミュージック''' ''Pokémon Music''), and is hosted by DJ {{DL|DJ|Ben}} on channel 7.5. In Kanto, the program is known as '''Pokémusic''' (Japanese: '''ポケミュージック''' ''Pokémusic'') or '''Let's All Sing!''' (Japanese: '''みんなで　うたおう！''' ''Let's Sing, Everybody!''), and is hosted by DJ {{DL|DJ|Fern}} on channel 18.5.

In Generation IV, the program is hosted by {{DL|DJ|Ben}} in both Kanto and Johto on station 1 (top-left).

====Pokémon March====
The Pokémon March doubles the encounter rate of [[wild Pokémon]] when played, much like the [[White Flute]] does in [[Generation III]] and IV.
*In Generation II: The song plays on Sundays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.
*In Generation IV: The song plays on Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays pre-[[National Pokédex]], and only on Mondays and Fridays post-National Pokédex after receiving the [[GB Sounds]].

====Pokémon Lullaby====
The Pokémon Lullaby halves the encounter rate of [[wild Pokémon]] when played, much like the [[Black Flute]] does in [[Generation III]] and IV.
*In Generation II: The song plays on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
*In Generation IV: The song plays on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays pre-National Pokédex, and only on Tuesdays and Saturdays post-National Pokédex.

====Pokémon Past Archive====
The Pokémon Past Archive is only accessible in Generation IV, after the player has acquired the National Pokédex. It has no function in the field, but like the [[GB Sounds]], it plays chiptunes from Generation II. It primarily plays music that the player cannot normally listen to with the GB Sounds, such as the game's opening and ending themes. It plays on Sundays after receiving the GB Sounds from the Game Freak employee.

====Hoenn Sound====
The Hoenn Sound channel is also accessible only in Generation IV, post-National Pokédex. It plays a remixed version of the {{rt|101|Hoenn}} theme, which attracts certain wild [[Hoenn]] Pokémon. The song plays on Wednesdays. In order to successfully attract Pokémon, the music must be currently playing instead of the location music.

====Sinnoh Sound====
The Sinnoh Sound channel, much like the Hoenn Sound channel, can attract wild Pokémon from [[Sinnoh]] with a remix of the music played on {{rt|201|Sinnoh}}. It is only available in Generation IV, post-National Pokédex. The song plays on Thursdays. In order to successfully attract Pokémon, the music must be currently playing instead of the location music. Curiously, it attracts {{p|Meditite}} even though it was introduced in [[Generation III]], however, this also makes sense, as Meditite is quite common in Sinnoh.

===Professor Oak's Pokémon Talk===
'''Professor Oak's Pokémon Talk''' (Japanese: '''オーキドはかせの　ポケモンこうざ''' ''{{tt|Dr. Okido's|Prof. Oak's}} Pokémon Lecture'') is a radio show aired on the '''Pokémon Channel''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンチャンネル''' ''Pokémon Channel''). It is hosted by [[Professor Oak]] and [[DJ Mary]]. The show talks about Pokémon and where they are found. At first, Professor Oak was going to turn down the offer of having his own radio show, but Mary's energy and enthusiasm convinced him to host it.

In Generation II, the show can be heard on channel 4.5, during the afternoons; in the mornings, the [[#Pokédex Show|Pokédex Show]] is broadcast instead. In Generation IV, the show can be heard all day on station 2 (top-right). After obtaining the [[National Pokédex]], it also informs the viewers of [[mass outbreak]]s. This also includes the ones from Generation II that appeared in a swarm when a Trainer registered into the player's Pokégear contacted the player.

The following Pokémon may be found by listening to Professor Oak's Pokémon Talk in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver.

===Radio Transmission===
A high-pitched screech plays over and over. It only plays in [[Mahogany Town]], {{rt|43|Johto}}, and [[Lake of Rage]] before the player has cleared the [[Team Rocket HQ]].

In Generation II, it can be heard on channel 20.5. In Generation IV, the broadcast causes interference that prevents the radio from tuning in to other stations.

The announcement is played on all stations after [[Team Rocket]] succeeds in taking over the Goldenrod Radio Tower. A Team Rocket {{tc|Executive}} announces over the airwaves that they have rejoined, and pleads their boss, [[Giovanni]], to come out of hiding and rejoin them. It begins playing once the player had defeated the seventh [[Gym Leader]], and no longer plays after Team Rocket disbands.

===That Town, These People===
'''That Town, These People''' (Japanese: '''あのまちこのひと''' ''That Town, These People''), known as '''Places and People''' in Generation II, is a show that focuses on various towns or people.

In Generation II, it is broadcast from Kanto on channel 16.5, and is hosted by {{DL|DJ|Lily}}. In Pokémon Crystal, an [[Pokégear#Radio|EXPN Card]] is required to listen to the program on a Pokégear; however, players can listen to the show on radios in Kanto houses before then. The program pulls the name of a random {{pkmn|Trainer}} the {{player}} has fought, or a random location, and then applies a random quality from the list below to it.

* ''<Trainer>'' is actually great.
* ''<Trainer>'' is always happy.
* ''<Trainer>'' is cute.
* ''<Trainer>'' is definitely odd!
* ''<Trainer>'' is inspiring!
* ''<Trainer>'' is just my type.
* ''<Trainer>'' is just so-so.
* ''<Trainer>'' is kind of weird.
* ''<Trainer>'' is precocious.
* ''<Trainer>'' is quite noisy.
* ''<Trainer>'' is right for me?
* ''<Trainer>'' is so cool, no?
* ''<Trainer>'' is sort of OK.
* ''<Trainer>'' is sort of lazy.
* ''<Trainer>'' is somewhat bold.
* ''<Trainer>'' is too picky!

In Generation IV, the show is broadcast on the '''Town Channel''' (Japanese: '''まちかどチャンネル''' ''Street Corner Channel'') on station 3 (bottom-left). It features the top three parts of the towns and cities in both [[Johto]] and [[Kanto]]. It is broadcasted by an unknown announcer. It switches every hour with [[#Trainer Profiles|Trainer Profiles]].

====Buena's Password====
'''Buena's Password''' (Japanese: '''アオイのあいことば''' ''{{tt|Aoi|Buena}}'s Password'') is a quiz show held in the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]] by [[Buena]] that was first introduced in {{game|Crystal}}. In Generation II, the channel is broadcast on its own station, station 10.5. In Generation IV, it is part of the repertoire of the Variety Channel.

In order to play the quiz show, the player must listen to the Pokégear radio from 6 PM to midnight (in Generation IV, at 2 AM, 5 AM, 8 AM, 11 AM, 2 PM, 5 PM, 8 PM, and 11 PM). A secret password will be announced over the air, along with an invitation for listeners to come to the Goldenrod Radio Tower in [[Goldenrod City]]. The player is to go to the second floor and talk to Buena, the show's host. She will give the player three options; if the correct one is picked, one point is added to the player's [[Blue Card]]. Only one point can be earned per day; changing the DS time to a different day will not allow another point to be earned.

In Generation II, points must be spent to buy each prize; whereas in Generation IV, prizes are awarded when the player obtains a certain number of points. Players cannot have more than 30p on the Blue Card. If the player has 30p, they can speak to Buena to register her phone number in the [[Pokégear]] (points will not be spent). In Generation II, the player cannot earn points while their Blue Card has 30p (requiring points to be spent); whereas in Generation IV, the player will be issued a new Blue Card once the 30p limit is hit.

==In the manga==
[[File:Buena's Password Golden Boys.png|thumb|120px|Buena's Password in Pokémon Gold & Silver: The Golden Boys]]
===In the Pokémon Gold & Silver: The Golden Boys manga===
Buena's Password is featured briefly in ''[[GB15|Escape From The Mystery Forest!]]'', coming on {{GnB|Gold}}'s [[Pokégear]] radio as he is flipping channels while lost in a forest.

In the English translation by [[Chuang Yi]], [[Buena]] is still known as her Japanese name, Aoi.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* On the Lucky Channel, {{DL|DJ|Reed}} occasionally says, "''...Repeating myself gets to be a drag...''"
* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the poster announcing the Lucky Channel on the ground floor of the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]] is still present, despite the program itself no longer being available. It reads "''Lucky Channel! Win with Pokémon ID numbers! Trade your Pokémon to collect different ID numbers!''"
** In the Japanese versions, the poster refers to the Lucky Channel as '''だいこうひょうポケモンくじ''' ''The Great Pokémon Lottery''. In the English versions, the name "Lucky Channel" is kept.
* In Pokémon Music, the Hoenn Sound channel plays on Wednesday, considered the third day of the week in some parts of the world, as well in {{wp|ISO 8601|international standardization}}. This corresponds with Hoenn's introduction in [[Generation III]]. Likewise, the Sinnoh Sound channel plays on Thursday, sometimes considered the fourth day, matching [[Generation IV]].
* In Pokémon Music, {{p|Meditite}} is the only Pokémon found with the regional music programs that doesn't match the generation, being a {{cat|Generation III Pokémon}} found with Sinnoh Sound. This is probably due to its greater prominence in the [[Generation IV]] games.
* In Pokémon Music, Sunday is the only day of the week that the music playing before the National Pokédex has been obtained in [[Generation IV]] is the same as the music playing in [[Generation II]]. All other days swapped the music.
* In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, one of [[Professors' aides|Professor Oak's aides]] [[List of cross-generational references|mentions]] Professor Oak's show he's planning, but mentions that it's called Professor Oak's Pokémon Seminar rather than Professor Oak's Pokémon Talk.
* According to one of Professor Oak's aides in {{game|Crystal}}, [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|HeartGold, and SoulSilver]], Professor Oak's Pokémon Talk is prerecorded. This explains why Oak is always in his lab, even if the player listens to the program while visiting him, and why he isn't in the {{FB|Goldenrod|Radio Tower}} while the program is playing.
* The Town Channel in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} shares its Japanese name with the Street Corner Channel.
* The program Serial Radio Drama on the Variety Channel may have originally been intended to be called Radio Miniseries, as referenced by the radio located in [[Mahogany Town]] tuned to the Variety Channel.

'''Gengar''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ゲンガー''' ''Gangar'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ghost|Poison}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Haunter}} when [[trade]]d. It is the final form of {{p|Gastly}}.

Gengar has two other forms.
* It can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Gengar''' using the [[Gengarite]].
* It has a [[Gigantamax]] form.

==Biology==
[[File:Morty Gengar.png|thumb|200px|left|[[Morty's Gengar]] floating in the air]]
Gengar is a dark purple, bipedal Pokémon with a roundish body. It has red eyes, a wide mouth that is usually curled into a sinister grin, and pointed ears. On its back are numerous spikes and it has smaller spikes on top of its head similar to tufty fur. Its arms and legs are short with three digits on both its hands and feet. It also has a stubby tail.
[[File:Gengar in shadow.png|thumb|250px|Gengar in {{Ash}}'s shadow]]
Gengar has the ability to hide perfectly in the shadow of any object, granting it exceptional stealth. However, Gengar's body acts as a {{wp|heat sink}}. Its presence cools the temperature of the surrounding area by nearly 10°F (5°C), because it absorbs the warmth. [[EP023|The anime]] has shown that Gengar can fly and [[SM073|possess people]] and other Pokémon. In the past, {{m|Night Shade}} was its [[signature move]].

Gengar is very mischievous, and at times, malicious. It enjoys playing practical jokes and casting curses, such as pretending to be one's shadow, then behaving erratically. When the quarry notices, the Gengar takes delight in its victim's terror. However, Gengar has been known to be loyal to a {{pkmn|Trainer}} who treats it well. Being the result of an evolution via [[Trade|trading]], Gengar is rarely found in the wild, though they can be found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon|caves}} and dark places where shadows form. It is especially fond of urban areas such as cities and back alleys, but only during the night.

As Mega Gengar, a portion of its body sinks into the ground and its arms and tail lengthen. The lower portions turn a more reddish purple, and a third eye appears on its forehead. This new unblinking eye is oval, yellow, and allows it to see into other dimensions.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20150329055725/http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/ Pokémon X and Y site | Mega Pokémon (archived)]</ref> The spikes on Mega Gengar's back are more numerous and pointed, and additional spikes appear on its hands and tail. Its ears are now considerably longer and tilt backward.

Mega Gengar has the ability to access other dimensions and has a vicious nature. Mega Gengar has no interest in opponents unless perceived as prey. Its relationships are warped due to [[Mega Evolution]]. It now desires to take and curse the life of anyone or anything in its path; it may even curse its own Trainer. Mega Gengar sinks into an another dimension to wait for a chance to attack.

As Gigantamax Gengar, it becomes larger, with portions of its body sinking into ground, and only the head, tail, and arms remain. Its body changes from dark-purple to light-purple, and its eyes become white with yellow sclera. The inside of its mouth changes to resemble a tunnel with a long purple tongue sticking out. Three red clouds surround the top of Gengar's head.

Gigantamax Gengar's mouth is rumored to not lead into its body. Due to the cursed energy, it is believed to instead lead into the afterlife. By laying a trap, it attempts to steal the lives of those it captures. Should someone stand near its mouth, they can hear the voices of their loved ones calling out to them. Gigantamax Gengar is the only known Pokémon capable of using the exclusive [[G-Max Move]] {{m|G-Max Terror}}.

* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]]: Gengar is the leader of [[Team Meanies]]. While often accompanied by {{p|Ekans}} and {{p|Medicham}}, Gengar will often act alone and spends much of the game causing trouble, even convincing the village to exile the hero, blaming them for the natural disasters. However, it is later revealed that he is the cursed human. After Rayquaza destroys the star heading for the world, Gengar will post a request, asking to visit Ninetales in the hopes of bringing back Gardevoir. While she is rescued, she has no recollection of her times with her trainer, but Gengar is still satisfied to see her safe and leaves.
* {{g|Super Mystery Dungeon}}: Gengar appears as a recruitable character and asks the player to deliver a letter to {{p|Banette}}.

==Trivia==
[[File:094Gengar-Mega-Shiny.png|thumb|175px|Promotional artwork of a {{shiny}} [[Mega Evolution|Mega]] Gengar]]

* Gengar is [[Ken Sugimori]]'s favorite Pokémon.
* Gengar is one of the first two Pokémon to appear in a [[Pokémon battle]] both in the {{pkmn|anime}} and in the {{pkmn|games}}, the other being {{p|Nidorino}}. This is due to their appearance in the opening animation of {{game|Red and Green|s}}, on which the beginning of [[EP001|the first anime episode]] was based on, as well as the [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|remakes]].
* Nidorino, along with Gengar (and, possibly, other Pokémon), originate from the old manga, [[Capsule Monsters]], which is considered the ancestor to the Pokémon franchise.
* In {{g|X and Y}}, Gengar is the only Pokémon with the Ability Levitate that is not eligible for [[Sky Battle]]s.
* No other Pokémon has the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Gengar and its evolutionary relatives.
* Mega Gengar has the highest base {{stat|Special Attack}} stat of all {{type|Ghost}} and {{type|Poison}} Pokémon.
* When viewing Mega Gengar's [[Pokédex]] entry, the camera's view can only be moved sideways.
* Gengar could be seen as a counterpart to {{p|Alakazam}}. They are both the last stage of a three-part evolutionary family, require trading to reach their final stage of evolution, and are capable of Mega Evolution. They are the same height, and both get shorter upon Mega Evolution. They share a base friendship of 70 and, since Generation VI, a base stat total of 500. Both are weak to the other's [[STAB]], and they share weaknesses to the {{t|Ghost}} and {{t|Dark}} types. In the anime episode ''[[EP072|The Ancient Puzzle of Pokémopolis]]'', a Gengar and an Alakazam are put against each other.
** Gengar could also be seen as a counterpart to {{p|Machamp}}. They are, like Alakazam, the last stage of a three-part evolutionary family, can both be obtained through evolution induced by trade, and are capable of [[Gigantamax]]ing in [[Generation VIII]]. Both Gengar and Machamp also share a base friendship of 70. While both are weak against {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon, as Gengar is part {{type|Poison}} and Machamp is a {{type|Fighting}} type, Gengar can counter it with its {{t|Ghost}} typing.
* When being escorted through [[Mt. Freeze]] and [[Murky Cave]] in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]], [[Team Meanies|Gengar]] knows {{m|Leer}}, {{m|Scratch}}, and {{m|Quick Attack}}, although it [[game move errors|cannot learn]] those moves by any means in any generation.
* In the [[core series]] games, Mega Gengar has small feet that can be seen by recalling it and sending it out. In [[Pokkén Tournament]], however, Mega Gengar does not have feet. Instead, a portal appears beneath it whenever it is airborne. Its tail will disappear as well.
* When Gengar [[Gigantamax]]es, it doesn't grow on screen. Instead, it pops out of the ground.
* Gengar is the only Pokémon capable of Gigantamax and Mega Evolution that is not a starter in the [[Kanto]] [[region]].

===Origin===

Gengar seems to be based on general cartoonish {{wp|ghost}}s, {{wp|cat}}s, or the {{wp|Cheshire Cat}}; and possibly on a distorted shadow of a human being as well, like {{wp|Shadow person|shadow people}}.

====Name origin====
Gengar and Gangar are possibly a shortening of ''{{wp|doppelgänger}}'', a double of a person, which is fitting for a Pokémon with a habit of pretending to be a person's shadow. The kanji 幻 ''maboroshi'' can also be read as ''gen'' and is used in words meaning ''phantom'' or ''illusion''. There is also a striking pronunciation similarity to the Danish word ''{{wp|gjenganger|genganger}}'', a term for ghosts found in Scandinavian folklore.

Dynamax

2020-05-12T18:36:05Z

Mr.GodzillaMan: /* In the manga */

[[File:SwSh Prerelease Dynamax Pikachu.png|thumb|A Dynamax {{p|Pikachu}}]]
'''Dynamax''' (Japanese: '''ダイマックス''' ''Daimax'') is a temporary transformation affecting Pokémon that was introduced in [[Generation VIII]]. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who obtain a [[Dynamax Band]] are able to Dynamax their Pokémon. According to [[Professor Magnolia]], the Pokémon distorts space to change its size while affecting the world around them. This transformation has another special variant known as [[Gigantamax]].

==History==
After its defeat thousands of years ago by {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}}, {{p|Eternatus}}'s energy leaked out during its slumber in the form of Galar particles. This resulted in the creation of {{cat|Power Spots}}, where Trainers can trigger the Dynamax transformation. Some Power Spots had Gym Stadiums built over them, and others in the [[Wild Area]] became [[Pokémon Den|Pokémon Dens]], where [[Max Raid Battle|Max Raid Battles]] take place. Parts of Eternatus's body, known as [[Wishing Star]]s, rained across [[Galar]], allowing whoever found them to Dynamax their Pokémon when at a Power Spot. [[Dynamax Band|Dynamax Bands]] were created to help anyone fully utilize the transformation there.

==Effects==
{{incomplete|section|Effects of item-affecting moves See comment tags}}
Dynamaxing increases a Pokémon's size drastically, as well as changing the moves of the Pokémon and increasing their HP in battle (except for {{p|Shedinja}}), but can only be used once during a battle, and ends after three turns or if the user is switched out. In addition, it can only be performed in areas known to have {{cat|Power Spots}}, such as [[Galar]]'s [[Gym|Gym Stadiums]] and {{gdis|Battle Tower|VIII}}. When Dynamaxed, all of the Pokémon's [[move]]s will turn into [[Max Move]]s that correspond to those moves' [[type]]s and categories. Like with [[Mega Evolution]], Dynamax is activated at the start of the turn before all other moves are executed. If a Dynamax Pokémon is unable to use any moves (e.g. running out of {{PP}}), it will use {{m|Struggle}}.

In a [[Max Raid Battle]], the wild Pokémon is a Dynamax Pokémon for the entire duration of the battle. Only one of the Trainers' Pokémon can Dynamax during a Max Raid Battle for three turns. The first Trainer with the chance to Dynamax is the host, with the chance passing to the next player who joined until it returns to the first player.

{{p|Zacian}}, {{p|Zamazenta}}, and {{p|Eternatus}}, including Pokémon {{m|transform}}ed into one of these, cannot Dynamax.

===Gigantamax===
{{main|Gigantamax}}
If a Pokémon has the Gigantamax Factor, it can undergo Gigantamax, a special kind of Dynamax that results in a different appearance to its regular form in addition to being larger. Only specific individual members of a select group of species can Gigantamax. Each Gigantamax Pokémon has an exclusive Max Move known as a [[G-Max Move]]. Other than having a G-Max Move, Gigantamax is functionally identical to a Dynamax.

===Dynamax Level and HP===
Dynamaxing provides Pokémon with an increase to its maximum and current HP (with the exception of Shedinja) by the same factor. The amount of HP gained depends on the Pokemon's Dynamax Level, which can be increased with [[Dynamax Candy]]. At Dynamax Level 0, a Pokémon will gain 50% more HP. For every Dynamax Level above that, the Pokemon will gain 5% more HP, up to a 100% HP increase at Dynamax Level 10. All other [[statistic|stats]], as well as its [[Ability]] and [[held item]], remain the same.

Whenever a Pokémon enters into or reverts from Dynamax, its current HP is adjusted to retain the same percentage of HP remaining rounded up. For instance, if a Pokémon at Dynamax Level 10 has 100/200 HP remaining, then upon Dynamaxing, its HP will be adjusted to 200/400. Conversely, if the same Pokémon has 101/400 HP in Dynamax form, then its HP will be adjusted down to 51/200 when its Dynamax expires. All effects that are based on a percentage of the Dynamaxed Pokémon's maximum HP (e.g. {{m|Life Dew}}, {{m|Leech Seed}}, [[Poison (status condition)|poisoning]]) are calculated based on its maximum non-Dynamax HP. If {{m|Endeavor}} or {{m|Pain Split}} is used against a Dynamax Pokémon, the damage it receives would only be based on its non-Dynamax HP. The same Dynamax Pokémon described above will have its HP lowered to 101/200 hit with a 1-HP user's Endeavor. However, {{m|Brine}}'s bonus damage is still calculated based on the Dynamax HP.

===Immunities===
Dynamax Pokémon are immune to {{status|Flinch}}ing. {{m|Fake Out}} can still damage a Dynamax Pokémon, but will have no secondary effect. They are unaffected by {{cat|moves affected by weight}}, such as {{m|Low Kick}} and {{m|Heavy Slam}}, [[one-hit knockout move]]s, and {{m|Destiny Bond}}. Moves and Abilities that replace the target's [[Ability]] with the user's, including {{m|Skill Swap}}, {{m|Entrainment}}, and {{a|Wandering Spirit}}, have no effect on Dynamax Pokémon. However, moves that {{cat|Ability-changing moves|change or suppress}} the Dynamax Pokémon's Ability altogether, such as {{m|Gastro Acid}} and {{m|Worry Seed}}, still work.

Dynamax Pokémon cannot be switched out by the effects of {{cat|Moves that switch the target out}}, like {{m|Roar}} and {{m|Whirlwind}}, but can be forced out by {{a|Emergency Exit}} or an [[Eject Button]]. {{m|Circle Throw}} and {{m|Dragon Tail}} will still damage Dynamax Pokémon. [[Red Card]] also fails to switch out a Dynamax Pokémon, but can be activated and consumed. If a Dynamax Pokémon has {{a|Magic Bounce}} and is targeted by {{m|Parting Shot}}, the move will be reflected and force the Dynamax Pokémon to switch out (the owner of the Dynamax Pokémon is still able to choose the Pokémon that it is replaced with).

Dynamax Pokémon cannot be affected by {{m|Disable}} or {{a|Cursed Body}}. A Max Move can still be used if its base move was disabled prior to Dynamax. Dynamax Pokémon are also immune to {{m|Encore}}, {{m|Torment}}, and {{m|Instruct}}.

===Effects on held items===
[[Choice Band]], [[Choice Scarf]], [[Choice Specs]], {{a|Gorilla Tactics}}, and {{a|Sheer Force}} temporarily stop working (including the stat boosts) if the holder is Dynamaxed. However, [[Assault Vest]] still works accordingly and prevents the holder from using of [[Max Guard]].

===Effects on Transformed Pokémon===
If {{m|Transform}} or {{a|Imposter}} is used against a Dynamax Pokémon, only its base form and base moves will be copied, and the user can Dynamax separately. The Gigantamax Factor, however, is not copied at all; instead, the user can only achieve the standard Dynamax form. Additionally, if a Pokémon incapable of Dynamax (e.g. {{p|Zacian}}) is copied, then the user will not be able to Dynamax afterwards. If a Pokémon attempts to copy a Max Move (e.g. using {{m|Copycat}}), it will copy the base move of that Max Move.

==In the anime==
[[File:Lance Red Gyarados Dynamax.png|thumb|250px|[[Lance]]'s [[Red Gyarados|Gyarados]] Dynamaxed in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Dynamaxing was first featured in [[SS005]], where {{Ash}} and [[Goh]] witnessed a {{p|Snorlax}} [[Gigantamax]]ing in the [[Wild Area]] and had to figure out a way to stop an incoming train from colliding with it.

In [[SS012]], [[Lance]]'s [[Red Gyarados]] was shown Dynamaxing during his battle against [[Leon]] and his {{p|Charizard}} at the finals of the [[World Championships|Pokémon World Championships]], which was held at [[Wyndon Stadium]]. Leon Gigantamaxed his Charizard in response to Lance's Dynamax.

Later in the same episode, {{TRT}} inadvertently caused a {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Drednaw}} to Gigantamax outside Wyndon Stadium. It reappeared in [[SS013]], where it battled [[Ash's Pikachu]]. In the process, Pikachu was also exposed to some Dynamax energy and subsequently Gigantamaxed. This resulting power and size boost allowed Pikachu to defeat Drednaw.

==In the manga==
[[File:Max Raid Battle Adventures.png|thumb|200px|A Dynamax Gurdurr in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokemon Adventures Manga===
A Dynamax Pokémon first appeared in {{chap|Sword & Shield}}, where [[Sōdo Tsurugi|Sōdo]], [[Shirudomiria Tate|Shirudomiria]], and a pair of {{tc|Team Yell Grunt}}s battled against a Dynamax {{p|Gurdurr}} in a [[Max Raid Battle]]. After defeating it, Sōdo was able to catch it, adding it to his [[party]] and [[nickname|nicknaming]] it Tekkotsun.

Dynamax appeared again during Sōdo's [[gym]] battle against [[Milo]], where the {{type|Grass}} [[Gym Leader]] Dynamaxed his {{p|Eldegoss}}. Sōdo responded by doing the same with his {{p|Sirfetch'd|Ransun}}.

==In the TCG==
Dynamax is featured in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] as {{VMAX}}. It was added as a new mechanic to the game in the {{TCG|Sword & Shield}} expansion (the {{TCG|Sword}} and {{TCG|Shield}} sets in Japan).

Released along with the first {{TCG|Pokémon V}} cards, '''Pokémon VMAX''' introduce the Dynamax and [[Gigantamax]] mechanics into the Trading Card Game. Pokémon VMAX evolve from their respective Pokémon V, giving them boosted {{TCG|Hit Points}} (so far, the biggest HPs in a Pokémon card) and more powerful attacks. When a VMAX Pokémon is knocked out, the opponent takes three Prize cards instead of one.

So far, all released VMAX Pokémon have one or two attacks and no abilities. While keeping the same layout of Pokémon V, VMAX Pokémon cards have a rainbow background and details on the card's bottom, as well its illustration also fading into the top-most area and having the visual aura of Dynamaxing/Gigantamaxing on the Pokémon.

While going through the forest, the player and Hop ran straight into a thick wall of fog, and are suddenly approached by a mysterious Pokémon. None of the player's Pokémon's moves have any effect on it, and they and Hop are soon knocked unconscious as the mysterious Pokémon envelops them in completely opaque fog. The two wake up and are found soon after by [[Leon]], who also managed to find the runaway Wooloo, and leaves everyone out of the forest.

After [[Chairman Rose]] interrupts the [[Galar League|Champion Cup]] by starting the [[Darkest Day]], the player and Hop enter the forest again in order to find the Pokémon they met before, since legend says it once stopped the Darkest Day in the past. The player and Hop eventually find both of the Pokémon described in Galarian legends, and [[Sonia]] explains that they are known as {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}}, which were born somewhere beyond the Slumbering Weald long, long ago. At an altar at the deepest part of the forest, the player and Hop discover the [[Rusted Sword]] and the [[Rusted Shield]], ancient artifacts that were once used to stop the Darkest Day. Each of them takes one of the relics, before traveling to [[Hammerlocke]] to stop Rose. While the player and Hop confront {{p|Eternatus}}, Zacian and Zamazenta awaken from their long sleep near the altar and rush to join the battle.

During the post-game, the player meets Hop at Slumbering Weald and battles him. After the player has defeated Hop yet again, the two return the relics to the altar, only for [[Sordward]] and [[Shielbert]] to show up and snatch them. The player manages to recover one of the items, but the two brothers get away with the other one.

Later, Hop pursues Zamazenta{{sup/8|Sw}}/Zacian{{sup/8|Sh}} to the Slumbering Weald after the twin brothers had driven it berserk, and manages to calm it down by the time player is done {{pkmn2|caught|catching}} the other [[Legendary Pokémon]] and they and Sonia reach the Slumbering Weald. The Legendary Pokémon then willingly lets itself to be caught by Hop, becoming one of his partners. Hop then requests the player battle him for one last time, in the same place where their adventure first began. Once the battle is over, Hop declares that his new dream is to become a [[Pokémon Professor]], and Sonia offers him a place as her [[Professors' aides|assistant]], which he accepts.

===Special===
On the player's first visit, they are forced to participate in three guaranteed [[random encounter]]s.

This is followed by a special battle with {{p|Zacian}}{{sup/8|Sw}}/{{p|Zamazenta}}{{sup/8|Sh}}. In this battle, that Pokémon's name and [[level]] are replaced with ??? and the player only has the option to Fight or Run, although they are unable to [[escape|run]]. All of the player's Pokémon's moves have no effect, and the wild Pokémon does not use any moves, instead, it keeps making the fog in the battle thicker and thicker until the player passes out at the end of the third turn.

None of these Pokémon can be caught, as the player has no [[Poké Ball]]s at this stage of the game.

{{spoilers}}
The Slumbering Weald appeared in a flashback in the {{chap|Sword & Shield}}. One year before the events of the chapter, [[Sōdo Tsurugi|Sōdo]] [[Shirudomiria Tate|Shirudomiria]] entered it after seeing a pair of [[Wishing Star]]s falling there. After finding them, Sōdo also wished to see the legendary [[Rusted Sword]] and [[Rusted Shield]] at the heart of the forest. Upon finding the artifacts, they were confronted by illusions of {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}}. As all of Shirudomiria's Pokémon's attacks just phased right through them, Sōdo was able to identify them as nothing but harmless illusions and just walked right through them. However, before the two could reach the artifacts, they were blinded and knocked unconcious by a bright burst of light. When they woke up, the artifacts and Shirudomiria's Pokémon were all gone. Sōdo, feeling partially guilty of the event, decided to help Shirudomiria find her missing Pokémon by joining the [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]] with her, hoping to use the attention brought by it to help find Shirudomiria's Pokémon.

'''Moon''' (Japanese: '''ムーン''' ''Moon'') is a [[Pokédex holder|main character]] in the manga series [[Pokémon Adventures]].

==Character==
[[File:Sun Moon Adventures.png|thumb|left|270px|Moon's love of Poison-types]]
Moon is a girl from the [[Sinnoh]] region. She does not enjoy [[Alola]]'s tropical air, stating that it doesn't suit her character. She isn't one to be fooled by others, easily seeing through {{adv|Sun}}'s deception and seeing through the lies of the {{tc|Team Skull Grunt}}s. Moon is a pharmacist and is proficient with making various types of medicine. Due to this occupation, Moon is very knowledgeable about various poisons, as certain kinds can be used to make medicine. In addition to the possible benefits of poison, Moon favors {{type|Poison}} Pokémon and finds them to be cute. Moon is also a skilled archer, which helps her get medicinal supplies by firing at the desired item with her bow and arrow.

Due to coming from a family of scholars, Moon prefers to use her intelligence to devise strategies in battle. As such, concepts she considers "unscientific", such as luck, tend to annoy her if they end up defeating her strategies. For her skills, she is given the title of '''"Mixer"''' ({{tt|調合る者|つくるもの}} ''Mixer'').

==History==
{{spoilers}}

===Past===
Moon was born to family of scholars in the Sinnoh region. Ever since she was a small child, she studied various poisons and Poison-type Pokémon. At the age of six, she earned a doctorate degree for her studies, earning her the nickname (Japanese: '''ミス・ポイズン''' ''Miss Poison''). After causing various poison-related accidents, she chose to research ways to counter poisons, eventually becoming a pharmacist at age ten. Moon worked alongside [[Mr. Berlitz]]. Due to a mistake on her part, a {{p|Piplup}} became poisoned and could only be cured with materials that only exist in the [[Alola]] region. Although Mr. Berlitz was reluctant at first, he agreed to allow Moon to leave after [[Roseanne]] arrived with a {{TP|Moon|Rotom}} requested to be delivered to [[Professor Kukui]].

==={{chap|Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon}}===
[[File:Moon assistant Adventures.png|thumb|left|220px|Moon working as an assistant in Sinnoh]]
Moon debuted in ''[[PASM01|The Grand Entrance and Delivery Boy Sun]]'', where she encountered a boy named {{adv|Sun}} doing part-time work removing wild {{p|Pyukumuku}} from the [[Hau'oli City]] Beachfront. When the {{tc|Team Skull Grunt}}s that hired Sun came to check up on his work, they tried getting out of paying him by planting an extra Pyukumuku on the beach. When Moon pointed this out, the male Grunt had his {{p|Salandit}} attack her and then feign injury to force Sun to pay for its medical bills. Angered, Sun used his {{rf|Alolan}} {{p|Meowth}}, [[Cent]], to defeat the Grunts and forced them to flee. Afterward, Sun apologized to Moon for causing her trouble and offered to help with her delivery to Professor Kukui.

In ''[[PASM02|The Delivery of Rotom and the Girl]]'', Moon and Sun were attacked by the [[Guardian deities|guardian deity]] of [[Melemele Island]], {{p|Tapu Koko}}. After a quick battle, Tapu Koko ran away and left behind a [[Sparkling Stone]], which Sun picked up. Later, Moon and Sun arrived at Professor Kukui's house on {{rt|1|Alola}}, where they found the man testing the moves of his {{p|Rowlet}} and {{p|Popplio}}. After a quick introduction, Moon delivered Rotom to Kukui, who wanted one due to it being capable of combining with Sun's [[Pokédex]]. When Rotom tried entering the Pokédex, it ran away in disgust because Sun's constant mishandling of the device left it dirty and smelling bad. After Sun retrieved Rotom, he told Moon about the festival being held in [[Iki Town]] the next day and suggested she go to it before going back home.

In ''[[PASM04|The Decision and the Tournament of Six]]'', Moon met [[Olivia]], one of the [[Island Kahuna]]s, and helped her pick the roster of a tournament being held at the Iki Town Festival. During the placement, Moon encountered [[Lillie]]. When a Pokémon Lillie called {{DL|Light trio (Adventures)|Lunala|Nebby}} escaped from her bag and ran off to [[Mahalo Trail]], she and Moon chased after it. They found Nebby under attack by a group of wild {{p|Spearow}}, but as Lillie was too scared to move, Moon had to step in and save it. When Moon got to Nebby, it used its powers to break the bridge they were standing on, causing both to fall into the water before Tapu Koko caught them and brought them to safety. After learning that Lillie was entered in the tournament by accident, Moon decided to take her place instead.

In ''[[PASM06|The Party Crasher and Guzma the Destroyer]]'', Moon faced [[Gladion]] in the second battle of the second round of the tournament. Moon tried to ask Gladion about a mysterious [[Ultra Wormhole]] that she saw at Mahalo Trail, but Gladion only agreed to answer if she beat him. During their battle, Moon proved to be an effective strategist and nearly defeated Gladion's {{p|Porygon}}, but it eventually managed to win through luck. The shock of losing to something she considered unscientific as luck shocked Moon to the point where she completely ignored the final battle of the tournament.

In ''[[PASM08|Going Ashore and Neighboring Akala Island]]'', Moon and Sun traveled with Kukui to [[Akala Island]]. After rescuing Kukui's Rowlet from the pair of Skull Grunts, he allowed Moon to keep it after seeing how attached they were. Sun was given the task of delivering special [[Mirage Berry|Mirage Berries]] to each of Alola's guardian deities. Afterward, Moon revealed that Rotom decided to stay with her after fusing with a spare Pokédex she received from Kukui to become the [[Rotom Pokédex]]. Later, Moon and Sun arrived at [[Heahea City]], where they met [[Kiawe]], [[Mallow]], and [[Lana]], the [[Trial Captain]]s of Akala Island. Kiawe tested Sun to see if he was worthy in taking part of the [[Island challenge]] and eventually accepted him after they had a short battle. Lana, still unsure, told the group to follow her to [[Brooklet Hill]].

[[File:Moon Adventures.png|thumb|left|120px|Moon's first outfit]]
In ''[[PASM09|True Identity and the Totem Pokémon of Brooklet Hill]]'', Moon and Mallow went to [[Lush Jungle]] to search for the Mirage Berry. Shortly after arriving, they found {{p|Tapu Lele}} battling a {{p|Xurkitree}} emerging from another wormhole. Moon sent Rotom to get information about the mysterious creature, but it ended up shutting down after Xurkitree blasted it with an electrical shock. Moon tried firing a Poké Ball-tipped arrow, but it failed to catch Xurkitree, who managed to escape. Tapu Lele left in anger while Moon collected its fallen scales. When Moon pointed out they didn't know Xurkitree's actual name, Mallow suggested giving it the code name "Lighting".

In ''[[PASM11|Homecoming and the Brilliant Professional Golfer]]'', Mallow had her and Moon's Pokémon communicate with the wild Pokémon in the area to help them find the Mirage Berry. After successfully finding what they came for, Mallow received a call from Kiawe, who had been attacked by someone. After informing Sun and Lana, the four regrouped at [[Konikoni City]] before heading to [[Memorial Hill]], where they found an injured Kiawe lying on the ground. A group of Skull Grunts appeared, claiming they were the ones who defeated Kiawe. Mallow and Lana stayed behind to battle the Grunts while Moon, Sun, and Kiawe went to the [[Ruins of Life]] to check up on Tapu Lele. Shortly after arriving, Kiawe told Sun about [[Z-Move]]s and helped him practice the pose for {{m|Inferno Overdrive}}, which he planned to have Sun use against Gladion, the person who defeated him. As Sun did not possess a [[Z-Ring]], Kiawe allowed Sun to borrow his own, but they were interrupted by Gladion, who had joined [[Team Skull]] as an Enforcer. Gladion managed to capture Tapu Lele, was still recovering from a battle it had with Xurkitree. Kiawe tried giving his Z-Ring to Sun, but it was destroyed by Gladion's {{TP|Gladion|Type: Null}}. When Gladion claimed Sun wouldn't have won even with the Z-Move, a voice appeared, pointing out that if he truly believed that, then he wouldn't have destroyed the Z-Ring. The voice is revealed to be [[Kahili]], who uses her Pokémon to distract Type: Null before delivering Sun his finished Z-Ring.

In ''[[PASM13|Unleashing the Incredible Z-Move]]'', Sun and {{adv|Dollar}} successfully executed Inferno Overdrive, which managed to crack Type: Null's mask. Gladion gave up on Tapu Lele, deciding it was too weak to fight the mysterious creatures appearing in Alola. As he left, Gladion revealed the Ultra Wormholes are the result of something trying to break free into their world. Afterward, Tapu Lele woke up and Sun delivered the Mirage Berry to it. As thanks for healing it, Tapu Lele challenged Moon, Sun, Kiawe, and Kahili to a battle to test their strength. Despite the combined effort of their Pokémon, Tapu Lele easily blocked their attacks. Sun, refusing to give up, managed to land a hit on Tapu Lele after Dollar [[Evolution|evolved]] into a {{p|Torracat}}. The attack didn't harm Tapu Lele, but it acknowledged their determination and flew off. Afterward, Moon tried to consult Rotom about what Gladion said when he left, but the only answer it could give was "{{DL|Light trio (Adventures)|Necrozma}}."

In ''[[PASM14|Flash and Cosmog's Secret]]'', Moon faced {{p|Lurantis}}, the [[Totem Pokémon]] of Lush Jungle, and defeated it. Afterward, she and the others grouped together at Mallow's restaurant in Konikoni City to speak to Kukui's wife, [[Professor Burnet]], over a video phone. They speculated the Ultra Wormholes appearing in Alola may have been the result of Nebby's power. Kukui told Burnet to take Lillie and meet with him, Moon, and Sun at [[Ula'ula Island]], where Sun has to go to deliver the next Mirage Berry. Later that night, Burnet and Lillie traveled to Kukui's yacht via [[Mantine Surf]], but a wild {{p|Bruxish}} appeared and used its powers to give everyone headaches and cause them to pass out. Sun and Lillie ended up separated from the others while Moon, Kukui, and Burnet were rescued by the [[Aether Foundation]] and taken to their base of operations, [[Aether Paradise]]. There, they met [[Faba]] and [[Wicke]], who explained what happened to everyone and gave them a tour of the location.

After finishing their stay, in ''[[PASM18|Confusion and Monsters from Another World]]'', Moon, Kukui, and Burnet traveled to Ula'ula. Moon traveled to [[Po Town]], where she found the place under siege by a group of mysterious creatures, now known as [[Ultra Beast]]s. Gladion revealed the Aether Foundation's president, [[Lusamine]], gave a second Cosmog to Guzma to fuel her desire to create a paradise filled with nothing but Ultra Beasts and herself. Guzma denied the accusation that he was being used, only for a {{p|Nihilego}} to grab him and drag him towards an Ultra Wormhole. Moon attempted to rescue Guzma, but was stopped by Xurkitree. Sun managed to free Moon with his team, but ended up swatted away by Xurkitree, causing him to crash-land onto a car. The other beasts broke out of Po Town's barrier, allowing them to wreak havoc on the rest of Ula'ula. The Captains headed off to evacuate any innocents caught in the beasts' attacks while Moon stayed behind to heal Sun's injuries. When Moon pointed out that Sun reacted strangely when Gladion mentioned the Aether Foundation, Sun revealed the reason he had been collecting money was to buy back the island the Aether Foundation stole from his [[Sun's great-grandfather|great-grandfather]]. Before he could explain any further, Moon and Sun were approached by {{FB|Salon Maiden|Anabel}} and {{adv|Looker}} of the [[International Police]].
[[File:Moon bow Adventures.png|thumb|rightt|200px|Moon using her bow]]
In [[PASM20]], Anabel questioned the children about what they knew of the Ultra Beasts, but Sun was wary of the International Police, as he found their desire to protect and take in Pokémon used in crimes too similar to the goals of the Aether Foundation. After receiving a bribe from Anabel, Sun allowed Moon to give the officer information about the beasts that appeared in Alola. After having Looker sent off to investigate, Anabel told Sun and Moon about the beasts' species names as well as their codenames. The group was then attacked by {{p|Blacephalon}}, another beast that emerged from a wormhole. Sun and Anabel managed to stun Blacephalon long enough for Anabel to attempt a capture. The {{i|Poké Ball}} did not work on Blacephalon, revealing they only work properly on regular Pokémon. Blacephalon retaliated by using {{m|Mind Blown}} on the group, but was blown away by Tapu Bulu's {{m|Whirlwind}}. After Kukui and Burnet arrived with the Mirage Berry, Sun was reluctant to give it up, as he believed the guardian deities had no reason to help humans, because they were the ones responsible for causing the danger in Alola to begin with. Moon disagreed with this statement and argued that if humans were the cause for the danger, then they should take responsibility by helping fix it as well. Moon and Sun then gave the Mirage Berry to Tapu Bulu, who readily accepted it.

In [[PASM21]], Moon, Sun, and Anabel traveled to [[Poni Island]]. While Sun went off to find information on where to find {{p|Tapu Fini}}, Moon and Anabel arrived at [[Seafolk Village]], which had been evacuated due to the Ultra Beasts' attacks. Worried that some injured people may still be there, Anabel requested that Moon help heal any hurt civilians. As they walked through [[Poni Wilds]], Moon asked Anabel how she knew the names of the Ultra Beasts. Anabel then revealed that she knew because she is a Faller, a human who had passed through an Ultra Wormhole.

In [[PASM23]], Moon and Anabel traveled to [[Vast Poni Canyon]], where they witnessed Faba battling [[Plumeria]]. Worried that his plans could be jeopardized, Faba had his {{tc|Aether Foundation Employee}}s battle Moon and Anabel, hoping the distraction would give him the chance to escape. Faba fled to the [[Poni Altar]] while Moon, Anabel, and Plumeria followed him. Later, Tapu Koko appeared and placed Moon on the Altar with Sun, where they played the [[Sun Flute|Sun]] and [[Moon Flute]]s together, causing the Altar to react.

In [[PASM25]], the Poni Altar released a bright light that allowed Nebby and another {{p|Cosmoem}} to evolve into {{p|Lunala}} and {{DL|Light trio (Adventures)|Solgaleo}}, respectively. After explaining what the two [[Legendary Pokémon]] were, Anabel received a call from Looker, who reported that a large number of Ultra Beasts emerged from Po Town and have made their way to Poni Island. While the others fought the beasts, Sun confronted Faba, demanding that the Aether Foundation return his great-grandfather's island. Faba revealed to Sun that the island had already been converted into Aether Paradise, and money he suggested Sun gather wouldn't nearly be enough to return the island back to its previous state. A giant Ultra Wormhole with a {{p|Necrozma}}'s hand emerging from it opened in front of everyone. The hand possessed Solgaleo's body, forcing it to grab Sun and jump into the wormhole with it while Moon and Lunala followed after.

At some point, Sun and Moon ended up separated from Lunala and ended up trapped in the [[Ultra Deep Sea]] for six months. In [[PASM26]], Lunala reappeared, only for Moon and Sun to find it being [[Ultra Warp Ride|ridden]] by [[Dulse]] and [[Zossie]] of the [[Ultra Recon Squad]]. After overhearing that Dulse had met with the Aether Foundation to create Poké Balls capable of capturing the Ultra Beasts, Sun confronted the strangers, demanding to know what their connection with the Aether Foundation was. After Dulse and Zossie explained themselves, Moon asked the two if they could take her and Sun back to Alola. Though Dulse refused, Lunala returned to Moon and Sun, leaving him no choice but to stay behind while Moon, Sun, and Zossie rode on Lunala's back to Alola. As they traversed through [[Ultra Space]], Zossie taught Sun how to use Ultra Warp Ride and told him and Moon about the various worlds the Ultra Beasts come from. After passing through an Ultra Wormhole, the three arrived at the Ultra Recon Squad's home world, the [[Ultra Megalopolis]].

In [[PASM28]], the Ultra Beast {{p|Stakataka}} appeared in hopes of fighting the weakened Necrozma. Zossie took Moon and Sun to the [[Megalo Tower]], where they met [[Soliera]], another Ultra Recon Squad member. Soliera lured Stakataka to the tower as she wanted to test the bonds between people and Pokémon in order to find a way to return light to the Ultra Megalopolis. By disguising itself as a building, Stakataka hid itself from view, allowing it to easily capture Sun. Moon and Lunala fought to rescue Sun, but were unable to use their full strength without risking Sun's safety. After noticing Stakataka's many eyes, Sun had Moon shoot the Zygarde Cube with an arrow, releasing {{adv|Zygarde}} Cells everywhere. The Cells stuck to Stakataka, blinding it and preventing it from dodging Lunala's next attack. The battle alerted Necrozma, who released Solgaleo and leapt from the Megalo Tower to try and absorb Lunala as well. Lunala tried fighting back, but was overpowered. Moon and Sun sent out their Pokémon to help, but were stopped by Lusamine. Angered by her presence, Sun claimed that Lusamine was responsible for taking away his great-grandfather's island. Offended, Lusamine sent out a Nihilego and commanded it to become one with her.

In [[PASM30]], Necrozma fully absorbed Lunala to become its Dawn Wings form, it battled Lusamine and her team, who aimed to capture it. With one of the [[Beast Ball]]s that Lusamine dropped, Sun captured Stakataka and used it to battle Lusamine, who retaliated by sending out the rest of her Ultra Beasts to attack. At Soliera's suggestion, Moon attempted to stop Lusamine by capturing Nihilego with a Beast Ball, but the risk of Lusamine suffering negative side effects from a forced separation prevented her from firing the arrow. When Necrozma fled to the Megalo Tower, Lusamine and her Ultra Beasts chased it while Moon, Sun, and the Ultra Recon Squad members followed them. At the top, Moon attempted to capture Nihilego again, but was blinded by a bright light emanating from a wormhole Necrozma created. The wormhole sucked everyone into it and dropped them off in the skies above [[Mount Lanakila]]. After landing safely in a field of snow, an unconscious Moon was found by [[Ryuki]] and carried off to somewhere else. Later, she found herself trapped in a cage at Aether Paradise by Faba and Plumeria, who had dressed herself in Moon's previous outfit.

Faba revealed that he had researched Moon's past in order to learn more about her. He also showed that Sun reunited with Lillie and they managed to safely separate Lusamine from Nihilego, but were forced to protect her while they battled Necrozma. After being freed by Gladion, they attempted to confront Faba, but were forced to battle [[Ryuki]] after he was tricked into attacking them. As her own Pokémon were hidden away by Faba, Gladion allowed Moon to use his Silvally while he stayed behind to face Ryuki. Moon fled to Secret Lab B and reunited with her Pokémon, only to be interrupted by a group of Aether Foundation Employees. Moon had her team fight off the Employees while she made medicine for Gladion and his Pokémon, leading to {{p|Dartrix}} evolving into {{p|Decidueye}}. Once the medicine was complete, Moon prepared to leave and meet with Gladion again, only to be approached by Lunala.

Moon and Lunala traveled back to Mount Lanakila, where they regrouped with Anabel and Looker. Anabel revealed she was in possession of a Beast Ball and she intended to use it on Necrozma once Sun managed to weaken it enough. By combining Lunala, Solgaleo, and Zygarde's attacks, Moon and Sun managed to down Necrozma, but it mustered enough strength to destroy Anabel's Beast Ball. Sun revealed he picked up the Beast Ball Moon tried using on Lusamine earlier. The last Beast Ball was given to Zossie, who captured Necrozma in the hopes that the Ultra Recon Squad could potentially heal its injured state.

Several months later, Moon had returned to Sinnoh, but eventually decided to move to Alola permanently. On a video phone, she spoke to Kukui, who told Moon about the changes to the people of Alola that had happened while she was away. After hanging up, Moon was called by her sister, who told her that they needed to start preparing for the move.

Slumbering Weald

The '''Slumbering Weald''' (Japanese: '''まどろみの{{tt|森|もり}}''' ''Slumbering Forest'') is a [[forest]] in southern [[Galar]], located west of [[Postwick]].

==Role==
{{spoilers}}
[[File:Slumbering Weald altar SwSh.png|thumb|left|250px|The altar where {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}} sleep]]
The {{player}} and [[Hop]] first visit the Slumbering Weald after they've obtained their [[starter Pokémon]] in order to chase a {{p|Wooloo}} that had forced open the gate leading to the forest. While going through the forest, the player and Hop ran straight into a thick wall of fog, and are suddenly approached by a mysterious Pokémon. None of the player's Pokémon's moves have any effect on it, and they and Hop are soon knocked unconscious as the mysterious Pokémon envelops them in completely opaque fog. The two wake up and are found soon after by [[Leon]], who also managed to find the runaway Wooloo, and leaves everyone out of the forest.

After [[Chairman Rose]] interrupts the [[Galar League|Champion Cup]] by starting the [[Darkest Day]], the player and Hop enter the forest again in order to find the Pokémon they met before, since legend says it once stopped the Darkest Day in the past. The player and Hop eventually find both of the Pokémon described in Galarian legends, and [[Sonia]] explains that they are known as {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}}, which were born somewhere beyond the Slumbering Weald long, long ago. At an altar at the deepest part of the forest, the player and Hop discover the [[Rusted Sword]] and the [[Rusted Shield]], ancient artifacts that were once used to stop the Darkest Day. Each of them takes one of the relics, before traveling to [[Hammerlocke]] to stop Rose. While the player and Hop confront {{p|Eternatus}}, Zacian and Zamazenta awaken from their long sleep near the altar and rush to join the battle.

During the post-game, the player meets Hop at Slumbering Weald and battles him. After the player has defeated Hop yet again, the two return the relics to the altar, only for [[Sordward]] and [[Shielbert]] to show up and snatch them. The player manages to recover one of the items, but the two brothers get away with the other one.

Later, Hop pursues Zamazenta{{sup/8|Sw}}/Zacian{{sup/8|Sh}} to the Slumbering Weald after the twin brothers had driven it berserk, and manages to calm it down by the time player is done {{pkmn2|caught|catching}} the other [[Legendary Pokémon]] and they and Sonia reach the Slumbering Weald. The Legendary Pokémon then willingly lets itself to be caught by Hop, becoming one of his partners. Hop then requests the player battle him for one last time, in the same place where their adventure first began. Once the battle is over, Hop declares that his new dream is to become a [[Pokémon Professor]], and Sonia offers him a place as her [[Professors' aides|assistant]], which he accepts.

===Special===
On the player's first visit, they are forced to participate in three guaranteed [[random encounter]]s.

This is followed by a special battle with {{p|Zacian}}{{sup/8|Sw}}/{{p|Zamazenta}}{{sup/8|Sh}}. In this battle, that Pokémon's name and [[level]] are replaced with ??? and the player only has the option to Fight or Run, although they are unable to [[escape|run]]. All of the player's Pokémon's moves have no effect, and the wild Pokémon does not use any moves, instead, it keeps making the fog in the battle thicker and thicker until the player passes out at the end of the third turn.

None of these Pokémon can be caught, as the player has no [[Poké Ball]]s at this stage of the game.

'''Postwick''' (Japanese: '''ハロンタウン''' ''Furlong Town'') is a small town located at the southern end of the [[Galar]] [[region]]. It is the [[hometown]] of the Galarian [[player character]] and their [[rival]], [[Hop]]. To the north is {{rt|1|Galar}}, to the west is the [[Slumbering Weald]] and to the south is the [[Crown Tundra]].

==Slogan==
'''''A farming town since days of old, where people and their Pokémon live in close harmony.''''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|昔|むかし}}から　{{tt|牧場|ぼくじょう}}を　{{tt|営|いとな}}み　ポケモンたちと　ともに{{tt|暮|く}}らす　{{tt|町|まち}}}}''' ''A farming town since days of old, where people and Pokémon live together.'')

The [[player character]] lives in this house with their {{gal|Mum}} and her {{p|Munchlax}}.

===Hop and Leon's house===
[[Hop]] and [[Leon]] live here with their parents and grandparents. After fetching Leon from [[Wedgehurst]], the {{pkmn|Champion}} will give the player and Hop their [[starter Pokémon]] at the front yard.

==Demographics==
Postwick's population is 5 (not counting the {{player}}), likely owing to its lack of amenities such as a stadium or [[Pokémon Center]] and its relative isolation.

Flying Taxi

Mr.GodzillaMan: /* In the anime */

[[File:SwSh Prerelease Flying Taxi.png|thumb|300px|A Flying Taxi {{p|Corviknight}} seen in [[Wyndon]]]]
The '''Flying Taxi''' (Japanese: '''そらとぶタクシー''' ''Flying Taxi'') is a form of public transportation service in [[Galar]] provided by the '''Galar Taxi''' (Japanese: '''ガラル{{tt|交通|こうつう}}''' ''Galar Transport'') company. These taxis are carriages pulled by {{p|Corviknight}} and piloted by a {{tc|Cabbie}}. After attending the opening ceremony for the [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]] in [[Motostoke Stadium]], the player is granted access to them by a {{tc|League Staff}} member. After this, the player can access the Taxi from the [[Town Map]] or Habitat screen of the [[Pokédex]], free of charge.

In addition to the Flying Taxi the player regularly uses, there is a local Flying Taxi in [[Wyndon]] located in front of the Rose of the Ronderlands Hotel and [[Wyndon Stadium]]. This taxi will take the player to and from the two aforementioned locations, the Monorail Station, and after becoming {{pkmn|Champion}}, the {{gdis|Battle Tower|VIII}} as well.

==Destinations==
{{incomplete|section|Unlock conditions}}
Like {{m|Fly}} and its other counterparts, the Flying Taxi typically takes the player to that given area's [[Pokémon Center]]. Some larger cities, like [[Motostoke]] and [[Hammerlocke]], have several [[Pokémon Center]]s, some which the player does not have access to until they have progressed to a certain point in the story.

==In the anime==
[[File:Flying Taxi Twilight Wings.png|thumb|250px|The Flying Taxi in [[Pokémon: Twilight Wings]]]]
===In Pokémon: Twilight Wings===
The Flying Taxi service has a recurring role throughout the miniseries. It debuted in ''[[TW01|Letter]]'', where [[Chairman Rose]] and [[Oleana]] used it to travel from [[Wyndon Stadium]] to a children's hospital and then back.

In ''[[TW02|Training]]'', [[Bea]] used the service to travel to the [[Wild Area]]. However, she accidentally left her smartphone in the taxicab, which prevented her from calling for help when she and her Pokémon were trapped in a cave. The cab reappeared at the end of the episode, where the {{tc|Cabbie}} driving it returned the phone to Bea.

In ''[[TW03|Buddy]]'', [[Milo]] called the service so it could return [[Hop]]'s runaway {{p|Wooloo}}. The cab was then used to take Hop and Wooloo home after they reunited.

In ''[[TW04|Early-Evening Waves]]'', [[Nessa]] used the service to go to Rose's office and then to Wyndon Stadium.

'''Milo''' (Japanese: '''ヤロー''' ''Yarrow'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Turffield]]'s Gym, known officially as [[Turffield Stadium]]. He [[Type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. He gives the {{badge|Grass}} to Trainers who defeat him.

==In the games==
Milo is designated the first Gym Leader [[Galar]]ian {{pkmn|Trainer}}s face in their [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]]. He is a farmer that honed his skills working on his farm with his Pokémon, and can be often seen in [[Turffield]] trying to wrangle wandering {{p|Wooloo}} with his farm's herding {{p|Yamper}}. Despite his size and strength, Milo is a gentle, laid-back Trainer who has trouble giving it his all on weaker opponents and doesn't worry about winning or losing so long as each party is having fun. [[Nessa]] considers Milo her [[rival]], as revealed in her [[League Card]], but Milo doesn't seem to acknowledge this, claiming the only rival he really has is himself.

===League Cards===
This is a transcript of the back of Milo's [[League Card]]s in {{g|Sword and Shield}}.
;Normal League Card
:"This {{pkmn|Trainer}} was born as the son of farmers. He has honed his strength, stamina, and skill as a Pokémon Trainer from a young age by working together with his Pokémon. Because of his gentle nature, he has trouble going all out on weaker opponents, which is why his [[Gym]] is the first one for challengers to attempt during the [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]]. He always wears his boots, as apparently they let him dig in his heels when he needs to."
;Rare League Card
:"Though his record isn't the best due to his focus on simply having fun in battles, Milo himself is incredibly strong. The rolls of hay used in his Gym Challenge each weigh over {{tt|770 pounds|350 kilograms}}, yet Milo can roll them around easily. {{p|Wooloo}} tend to roll around, too, and sometimes they can get carried away and roll out of the [[Turffield Stadium|Gym Stadium]]. It has become common in [[Turffield]] to see the whole town chasing after Milo, who is in turn chasing after a stray Wooloo, along with {{p|Yamper}}."

===Pokémon===
Milo keeps his Pokémon in [[Ultra Ball]]s.

Milo will [[Dynamax]] his {{p|Eldegoss}} at the first opportunity.

:''"My... Are you OK? You took that Tackle head on..."''
:''"Hmmm? Oh, you must be one of those Gym Challengers, right?"''

::'''"No, I’m not"''': ''"Oh please, are you trying to have me on? I saw you at the opening ceremony!"''
:''"My name’s Milo. I’m a Gym Leader and rather partial to Grass-type Pokémon."''
:''"I’ve been itching to see just how good the Champion-endorsed Gym Challengers are... Let me find out at the Gym Stadium! Just head on through this route, and you’ll run right into my stadium. See you there!"''
:''"Come on now. Back to the stadium with you, too! We can’t keep the Gym Challengers waiting!"''

;[[Turffield Stadium]]
:''"My Gym’s the first one people face, so we get a lot of challengers. That’s why I try to keep the Gym mission challenging, but..."''
:''"that didn’t stop you from completing it, <player>! Proper job!"''
:''"Sure seems like you understand Pokémon real well. This is gonna be a doozy of a battle! I’ll have to {{color2|f00|Dynamax}} my Pokémon if I want to win!"''

* Upon sending out last Pokémon
:''"Woohoo! We’re not going to be done in that easy! We’re tough as weeds!"''

* Upon using Dynamax
:''"Come on, then! It’s Dynamax time! You’re about to be uprooted!"''

* Upon using {{m|Max Overgrowth}}
:''"This’ll really leave you in shock and awe. It’s our Dynamax move!"

* Upon being defeated
:''"The power of Grass has wilted... What an incredible Gym Challenger!"''

* After being defeated
:''"That must have been a fulfilling Pokémon battle for you!"''
:''"As proof that you have defeated a Gym Leader for the Gym Challenge, allow me to present you with your very own Grass Badge!"''
:''"You need to obtain all eight Gym Badges in order to complete the Gym Challenge. And the only way to gather the Badges is to defeat every Gym Leader!"''
:''"Some advice for you, <player>. The Gym Challenge has a set order you’ll need to follow. So that means your next stop should be in Hulbury to meet Nessa. Hulbury’s just beyond Route 5. Or since you’re got the Grass Badge, you could head to the Wild Area. It’s a bit tricky to catch Pokémon that are a higher level than the Pokémon on your team, but they make powerful allies if you succeed!"

(Japanese: '''剣創人''' ''Sōdo Tsurugi'') is a [[Pokédex holder|main character]] in [[Pokémon Adventures]].

==Character==
Sōdo is an assistant to [[Professor Magnolia]], helping her research the [[Dynamax]] phenomenon. He is often referred to as (Japanese: '''そーちゃん''' ''Sō-chan'') by [[Shirudomiria Tate|Shirudomiria]] and Professor Magnolia.

Sōdo was born to a family of swordsmiths and was taught how to repair weapons. He used this knowledge to become a (Japanese: '''身具{{tt|職人|マイスター}}''' ''Tool Meister''), where he repairs various objects Pokémon use in battle, such as his {{p|Sirfetch'd|Ransun}}'s leek lance or his {{p|Grookey|Sutikkun}}'s stick.

==History==
===Past===
One year prior to the {{chap|Sword & Shield}}, Sōdo and Shirudomiria first met at the entrance of the [[Slumbering Weald]]. Despite it being forbidden to enter, they went inside to obtain a [[Wishing Star]] Shirudomiria spotted falling into the forest. They found two Wishing Stars, with Shirudomiria taking one for herself and giving the other to Sōdo as thanks for his help. Sōdo and Shirudomiria then found themselves surrounded by the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}}. Realizing the two Pokémon were merely illusions, Sōdo and Shirudomiria passed through them, only to be knocked unconscious by a bright flash of light. After coming to, Sōdo discovered the [[Rusted Sword]] and [[Rusted Shield|Shield]] he was looking for had disappeared. Shirudomiria was distraught to find that her Pokémon had gone missing. After a failed search attempt, Sōdo and Shirudomiria decided the only way to find Shirudomiria's missing team members was to enter the Gym Challenge, hoping to use their fame to spread the word about the missing Pokémon.

==={{chap|Sword & Shield}}===
[[File:Soudo tool repairing Adventures.png|thumb|left|150px|Sōdo repairing a tool]]
Sōdo was first seen rescuing a young boy named [[Marvin]] from falling off a cliff. Later, Marvin was taken to Sōdo by Shirudomiria in order to properly thank him for saving his life earlier. After a brief introduction, Shirudomiria offered to let Marvin participate in a [[Dynamax]] simulation with her and Sōdo. Together, they fought and defeated a Dynamax {{p|Pangoro}} hologram, giving Marvin the confidence to set out on a Pokémon journey. Having received approval from his parents, Marvin joined the others on their quest to study Dynamax.

Later, everyone found [[Leon]] on the outskirts of [[Wedgehurst]], trying to move a large flock of {{p|Wooloo}} off of some train tracks. Sōdo and Shirudomiria stepped in to help, driving off an {{p|Obstagoon}} that was terrorizing the Wooloo. After introducing themselves, Leon left to appear on a television program in [[Motostoke]]. To Marvin's surprise, Sōdo and Shirudomiria revealed they helped Leon hoping that their efforts would leave enough of an impression that he'd give them an endorsement for the Gym Challenge.

Later, the trailer house was attacked by a trio of wild {{p|Drednaw}}. In order to battle the Bite Pokémon, Sōdo and Shirudomiria each received a [[Rotom Phone]] with a [[Pokédex]] function installed, officially making them both [[Pokédex holder]]s. With some assistance from {{p|Sobble}}, the Drednaw were defeated. Afterward, Professor Magnolia suggested Marvin keep Sobble, which he happily accepted.

Later, Sōdo and the others arrived in the [[Wild Area]]. While they traveled, Shirudomiria was delivered a package that contained Gym Challenge uniforms for her and Sōdo. When a pair of {{tc|Team Yell Grunt}}s tried to destroy the uniforms, Sōdo and Shirudomiria pushed them into a [[Pokémon Den]], forcing the four to team up in a [[Max Raid Battle]] against the wild {{p|Gurdurr}} that lurked inside. Eventually, the Gurdurr was defeated and caught by Sōdo, but the Grunts' Pokémon were knocked out during the battle, forcing them to flee.

==Pokémon==
Sōdo nicknames his Pokémon by taking the name of the tool they wield and adding the suffix "-n" to the end of it.

:''"If I discover something really huge, then maybe even Gran’ll admit I’ve got some talent!"
:''"I said you needn’t worry about it! I’m glad to be on the road. Really! It’s been ages. It’ll be great to fish and camp and rough it outside again."
:''"What cheek! [[Dynamax]] [[Pokémon]] are really on another level, you know! You’d better [[Dynamax]] your partner Pokémon, too, if you want to take on opponents that strong!"
:''"You’ll find spots here and there in the Wild Area that emit a red beam of light. If you think you’re up to it, check them out. There’ll be [[Dynamax]] [[Pokémon]] lurking inside! So with that, how about I send you off with a little treat from me?"
:''"With a Pokémon Box Link, you’ll be able to put Pokémon from your team into your Boxes or take Pokémon from your Boxes to add them to your team. Nice, right? So go wild catching as many Pokémon as you like, and fill in some more of your Pokédex!"
:''"The Wild Area is waiting for you! This is the start of your real adventure!"

;[[Motostoke]]
* Outside Pokémon Center
:''"Hey! Over Here!"
:''"Real Ace of you to make it through the Wild Area! Seems like your trek ran your [[Pokémon]] ragged, though. You should pop into the Pokémon Center."
:''"Besides, there’s something I bet you’ll get a kick out of...if you’re a real Trainer and all."

* Pokémon Center
:''"Oh, looks like the Rotomi’s free."
:''"Rotomi are a kind of rotom Information service. It’s a handy machine for Trainers. You can even use one to customize your League Card!"
:''"Why don’t you try playing around with your League Card a bit, <player>? Here’s a sample for you!"
:''"But Motostoke sure is big, right? Not to worry! Sonia is here to show you around a bit! Come find me after you heal up your Pokémon!"
:''"The opening ceremony, huh... I get a bit worked up when I think how exciting and moving it was to actually stand on a stadium’s pitch for the first time!"

* Outside
:''"So, brilliant young Trainer who’s braved the Wild Area! Do you remember what your goal in Motostoke is?"
::'''I’m here for the Gym Challenge!''' :''"Yup! The Gym Challenge opening ceremony."
::'''Uhhh...''' :''"What? You seriously forgot about the Gym Challenge opening ceremony?"
:''"By the way, the ceremony tomorrow is being held at the Motostoke Stadium, OK?"
:''"Use that lift over there to get to the stadium, ‘K?"
:''"Well, laters! I’m going to swing by the shops while I’m here, but don’t forget to register at the stadium, ‘K?"

* Boutique
:''"My gran told me I needed to go on a journey, but a girl needs a bit of joy in her life, too! Are you to here to do some shopping as well? Don’t forget to register at the stadium!"

* Budew Drop Inn
:''"Hiya! Looks like you both got yourselves registered."
:''"It’s a statue of the hero who once saved the [[Galar]] region. I could run through the legend right quick, if you fancy?"
::'''The short version, if you please!''' :''"Long ago...a great black storm covered the [[Galar]] region. People called it “the Darkest Day.” The land was assaulted by gigantic Pokémon...but they were defeated by a single young hero bearing a sword and shield. The statue here is meant to depict the young hero of that legend."
::'''Give me all the details!''' :''"Long ago...a great black storm covered the Galar region. People called it “the Darkest Day.” The land was assaulted by gigantic Pokémon...but they were defeated by a single young hero bearing a sword and shield. The statue here is meant to depict the young hero of that legend. We still don’t understand what kind of sword and shield the hero actually had. And what this “black storm” is supposed to be is just another mystery... Whatever it was, it blotted out the skies all across Galar. I suppose that tracks with it being called the Darkest Day, but still..."
:'''You’ll be all right, Sonia!''' :''"Heh, thanks! I’ll muddle through somehow—don’t you worry!"
:'''Will you be all right, Sonia?''' :''"Course I will. I’ll muddle through somehow—don’t you worry!"
:''"You two are staying here at the hotel tonight, though, aren’t you? Shouldn’t you check in?"
::'''If talked to again''' :''"Thanks for always taggin’ along with [[Hop]]. I hope you can keep it up. Leon really worries about him, too. He practically raised him, after all."

;{{rt|3|Galar}}
:''"Heya, Gym Challenger! You looked real ace out there during the opening ceremony!"
:''"Oh, but where’s [[Hop]]?"
::'''He went on ahead''' :''"He can’t sit still at all, can he? Guess he really wants to catch up to his brother."
::'''He went a different way''' :''"Well, you’re rivals, after all. I guess it makes sense you’d train on your own."
:''"Oh, I know! Let me tell you about something a bit interesting."
:''"You see that building over there? It’s a company owned by Chairman Rose."
:''"Just past Route 3, there’s a mine where they dig up ore. That building over there processes it into energy."
:''"In other words, the chairman is responsible for providing the Galar region with its energy, too."
:''"Can’t say I really get him, but the chairman seems like a pretty brilliant guy, right?"
:''"Here, a little something for having a chin-wag with me! It’s an Escape Rope."
:''"I’ll heal up your Pokémon, too!"
:''"The way to [[Turffield]] is pretty long, but that’s a kind of challenge in its own right. Good luck, Gym Challenger!"

;[[Turffield]]
:''"Thanks, Yamper!"
:''"I had you come ’cause I wanted to hear what you thought."
:''"So, that geoglyph... What do you think of it?"
::'''The Darkest Day?''' :''"Right perceptive of you. Especially since the portion depicting the black storm has mostly disappeared."
::'''Dynamax?''' :''"Seems likely... It certainly looks like a gigantic Pokémon. I suppose people three thousand years ago could’ve just imagined this, but it looks too similar to Dynamax. It can’t just be coincidence."
:''"A long time ago...a great black storm covered the Galar region. Giant Pokémon ran rampant... But what was that black storm they called “the Darkest Day”? What connection does it have to Dynamax?"
:''"Guess I’m the lucky lady who’ll be looking into that... Gran sure gives me a lot to do."
:''"Thanks for your thoughts on the matter! As thanks, I’ll give you a League Card."
:''"[[Milo]]’s a Grass-type Gym Leader. Things will go well for you if you use Fire-, Flying-, or Bug-type moves. Take these, too! It’d be pretty bad if your Pokémon weren’t in fighting form!"
:''"Go on, then! Get yourself to Turffield Stadium and battle yourself silly!"

;[[Hulbury]]
* Captain's Table
:''"Oh, were you invited, too?"
:''"*sigh* She was saying that here’s still so much we don’t know about Dynamaxing. It’s causing her some worry. She even made me take a Power Spot Detector with me when I started traveling..."
:''"*sigh* Does he think he’s doing me a favor? He’s right that the vault would be a good place to look for info on the legends, but..."
:''"You got the Water Badge, yeah? Defeating Nessa’s no small feat. Here’s a TM as a reward!"
:''"[[Nessa]]’s a good friend. Perhaps I should drop in on her. Until net time, Gym Challenger!"

;[[Hammerlocke]]
* Vault
:''"Oh, you’re here."
:''"Brilliant, aren’t they? It’s great that there are still treasured tapestries that can tell us of Galar’s history."
:''"The two youths watching a Wishing Star."
:''"A disaster occurs... The two bewildered youths."
:''"The youths looking on at the sword and shield that stop the disaster."
:''"The youths being crowned."
:''"These tapestries tell the story of the creation of a kingdom in [[Galar]]."
:''"Say, young Gym Challenger, what sticks out to you the most about them?"
::'''There’s two heroes?''' :''"Band on! The statue at the hotel in [[Motostoke]] only had one hero, no matter how you slice it. But here, we clearly have two youths."
::'''The Darkest Day?''' :''"Right? That’s got to be it. The story of the black storm that blotted out the skies was passed on through the years as a tale of disaster… That’s what the Darkest Day is!"
:''"Was there really only one hero, or were there two? And what even caused the Darkest Day?"
:''"Thanks for letting me bounce some ideas off you. I think I’ve got some theories now. I’m going to research the tapestries a tad more, but you have your Gym Challenge, right? I’m cheering for you, so take a couple of these. I hope to see more of your wins!"
::'''If talked to again''' :''"Whatever happened to the sword and shield that drove off the disaster?"

;[[Stow-on-Side]]
* After defeating the Gym
:''"Looks like my [[Yamper]] really likes you, huh? Anyway, we’ve run into each other at a good time. You know the mural here in [[Stow-on-Side]]? It’s said to tell the story of the hero of [[Galar]] as well. Though what’s there today is actually a replica of the ancient art that used to be here..."
:''"You tend to have surprisingly sharp insight, so I was wondering what you might think when you see the ruins."
:''"Wha...? What in the world was that? Sounds like it came from the direction of the ruins, too..."
:''"Let’s have a look! Come along, [[Yamper]]!"
:''"What’s going on up there?!"
:''"You know, during one of [[Bede]]’s matches, I heard the announcer say that [[Bede]] has no family. Apparently it was [[Rose]] who took Bede under his wing, and so Bede was battling for the chairman’s sake."
:''"What an awful turn of events… I hope the mural survived all that."
:''"Not a brilliant turn of events, but the ruins were brought into the light for us to see..."
:''"What does this tell us about Galar’s legends?"
::'''Pokémon?/A sword and shield?''' :''"Right! More than any hero, there’s those things that appear to be Pokémon that stand out! Not just that, but those Pokémon appear to be holding a sword and a shield as if they were using them!"
:''"Anything else look interesting to you?"
::'''The hero...was actually two people?/The same as the tapestries?''' :''"Oh, good observation! There really were two heroes. But if that’s the case, then why only the one statue at the Budew Drop Inn?"
:''"More than any statue of a hero or old tapestry, these ruins made in truly ancient times must show us the real truth."
:''"Which means..."
::'''The sword is a Pokémon!/The shield is a Pokémon!''' :''"Yup! I was thinking the same thing! Seems like at some point in history the sword and shield were combined with the two actual Pokémon and treated as the same thing... But then what? They just faded from history?"
:''"Two young heroes... The sword and shield were actually Pokémon... But why would the truth of these ruins be hidden when their stories were depicted in artwork?"
:''"With your help, I really feel like we made a big discovery here. Thanks! I’ll give you a couple of these, so you keep giving it your best in the Gym Challenge, too, OK? Guess you’ll be headed to [[Ballonlea]] next, right?"
:'''If talked to again''' :''"So... There was history being covered up by all that over-stylized artwork... I’m gonna have to look into this some more."

;[[Hammerlocke]]
* After defeating [[Opal]]
:''"Heya! The Badge collecting going well?"
:''"I’ve been doing some research on the ruins in Stow-on-Side... The sword and shield... What kind of Pokémon were they? And where are they now? I still have so many questions, I was thinking about taking another look at the tapestries in—"
:''"Are you kidding me?!"
:''"What was that?!"
:''"Hammerlocke Stadium shook..."
:''"That’s where Chairman Rose’s power plant is, isn’t it?"
:''"Huh? A Power Spot?!"
::'''What’s wrong?''' :''"I’m getting readings from the Power Spot Detector… Does that mean Dynamaxing is possible here?"
::'''You mean, like where you can Dynamax?''' :''"That’s right! The Power Spot Detector reacts when it’s possible to Dynamax!"
:''"This is bad! Pokémon might start Dynamaxing right in the middle of Hammerlocke!"
:''"You’ll just get lost, Leon. I’m going, too!"
:''"I’m really looking forward to seeing you compete in the Finals. So you should leave the investigation on the quaking to the adults. Head to Circhester and get that Gym Badge!"

;[[Circhester]]
* After defeating the Gym
:''"That battle was brilliant! That Gym Leader was tough, but you had no trouble."
:''"Circhester has some really great restaurants."
:''"I got some things I want to talk to you about, so let’s head to a restaurant to celebrate your win! The name of the restaurant is Bob’s Your Uncle!"

* Bob’s Your Uncle
:''"Oh, hey! There you are."
:''"I’ve been trying to find out more about the Darkest Day and the sword and shield [[Pokémon]], but still no luck..."
:''"Wait! Hold on!"
:''"No way! What’s this?!"
::'''A new chapter in the old [[Galar]] legends?/A fifth tapestry!''' :''"The heroes look sad... And where are the sword and shield?"
::'''An absolutely fantastic poster!''' :''"Exactly! Bob, with his brilliant smile, must be part of the legend! Wait, what are you on about?! Don’t confuse me! The heroes look sad... And where are the sword and shield?
:''"What was the meaning of this picture?"
::'''An end to the legend?''' :''"Hmm... Perhaps when their duty was completed, they went into some kind of sleep?"
::'''Some kind of seal?''' :''"You think so? I guess it could be that they were sealed away. Or maybe they’ve gone into some kind of sleep?"
:''"That’s right! That’s my take on it, at least."
:''"You...met them?"
:''"Oh, that’s right! You lot have been in the Slumbering Weald."
:''"I only started on this journey because my gran told me to, but this is turning out to be too much fun! You’ve got to tell me more. How about we discuss this over a meal? Go on, what do you want to eat? Let’s get our orders in!"
:''"Fascinating... All right, the next thing to do now that we’re done eating is to have a look around Circhester! Let’s inspect the Hero’s Bath!"

* Hero's Bath
:''"The Hero’s Bath... They say this is where the two heroes came to sooth their wounds after the battle to bring down that evil presence, long ago."
:''"Nowadays only Pokémon really use the Hero’s Bath, though... Hmm... Who exactly were the heroes that bathed here? I think I’ll have to look into that."
:''"You two met a mysterious Pokémon back in the Slumbering Weald... Perhaps...you two can become new heroes."
:''"What kind of battle do you think the heroes had back then?"
::'''After agreeing to battle Hop''' :''"I don’t entirely understand your reasoning, but I might just as well see what you can do. I’ll heal up your Pokémon for you, <player>, so give it your best!"

* After Battle
:''"Thanks! You two gave a right proper battle... At the rate you both are going, even the unbeatable Leon may be in trouble! So what’s next, you two? I plan to look into things in the Slumbering Weald."
:''"Seems like he finally shook off that gloom. Leon’d worry if Hop wasn’t feeling all right. As his rival, you wouldn’t like it either, right? See ya."

;[[Hammerlocke]]
* After defeating [[Piers]]
:''"Well, if it isn’t <player>."
:''"I’d expect nothing less from you and your [[Charizard]], [[Leon]]! You took down that [[Dynamax]] [[Pokémon]] in no time at all!"
:''"An overflowing red light... Pokémon Dynamaxing without a Power Spot?"
:''"I’m not sure... What’s going on? That red light could suddenly appear again at any time and we’d have no way of knowing."
:''"Gran?!"
:''"Are you saying that red light and the Darkest Day are connected?!"
:''"Gran, there’s something I want to look into. You’ll help me, right?"

* After defeating [[Raihan]]
:''"Hey there, <player>! You gave [[Raihan]] a good thrashing, and that means you’ve completed the Gym Challenge! Congratulations, from the bottom of my heart!"
:''"I really wish we could go celebrate, but I think there’s some things we should talk over."
:''"That light that covered [[Hammerlocke]]... It was just like the Darkest Day, where it’s said that giant Pokémon went on a rampage and almost destroyed the entire Galar region."
:''"The legendary sword and shield..."
:''"Are you sure, Gran? I still haven’t finished the work you’ve assigned me."
:'''Professor Sonia!/It looks great!''' :''"Y-yeah!"
:''"I know, Gran!"
:''"I’ll do what I can! You or Hop could be the one to take down Leon, and I don’t want to miss that! Not to worry—you can count on me to take care of everything! You just focus on getting to Wyndon. Go on! Head to the station, or you’ll miss your train!"
::'''If talked to again''' :''"The station’s near Route 7, remember? Now, off with you Gym Challenger!"

;[[Postwick]]
* After Rose interrupts the Championship Match
:''"Huh? <player> and Hop? Ah! I completely forgot about the Championship Match! What’re you two doing here?"
:''"Huh? What?! What happened while I was researching things in the Slumbering Weald?"
:''"Hold on a tick, ma’am. Did you say “the Darkest Day”?
:''"“The Darkest Day” is the name for the black storm that nearly brought the Galar region to ruin in ancient times..."
:''"So what’re you here for, <player>?
::'''I’m here to stop the Darkest Day!''' :''"To stop the Darkest Day... You mean you’re going to search for the sword and shield Pokémon?"
::'''To search for the sword/shield Pokémon''' :''"I suppose if the legends are true, then the sword and shield Pokémon should be able to prevent the Darkest Day from coming to pass... They may be just what we need to beat back the black storm!"
:''"OK! Here, take this. You should head to the Slumbering Weald. I’ll catch up with you once I’m done looking into something that’s been bothering me."
::'''If talked to again''' :''"I’ve got to keep looking into the origin of the sword and shield Pokémon!"

;[[Slumbering Weald]]
* After encountering the Legendary Pokémon
:''"You two... What in the world are you doing?"
:''"Hop, you sure you haven’t lost the plot? There was no one here but the two of you..."
:''"Listen! I dug into some literature from other regions, and I finally found something! Mentions of the sword Pokémon, [[Zacian]], and the shield Pokémon, called [[Zamazenta]]. The writings said that those two Pokémon were born somewhere beyond the [[Slumbering Weald]] sometime long, long ago."
::'''If talked to again''' :''"Zacian and Zamazenta... They may have been sleeping in the [[Slumbering Weald]] right next to your hometown all this time. Perhaps that’s why no one has entered the deepest parts of these woods for so long..."

* After defeating Leon
:''"And if it isn’t the two of you again. I was wondering what all the noise was about."
:''"<player>! Congratulations on beating Leon!"
::'''Thank you''' :''"Taking it all in stride like it’s your due, eh? You cheeky thing!"
::'''It was nothing...''' :''"Oh, trying to act modest, are you? Go on—you’ve earned the right to be proud!"
:''"Hop, I’m actually not working as my gran’s assistant any longer..."
:''"In fact... I’m the professor now!"
:''"And really, I’ve got the two of you to thank for that."
:''"I was just along for the ride on your adventure, but I ended up taking a real interest in the history of the Galar region."
:''"And I came to care for Pokémon even more than I ever had before!"
:''"Ah, here! It’s a book I wrote! I even signed it—that makes it a collector’s item."
:''"Aww, thanks, Hop! That’s so sweet. I’ll sign your copy for you later." :''"Anyway, I’ve got my gran’s blessing and put out my first book under my own name... I think you can expect great things of the lovely Professor Sonia in the future, wouldn’t you say?"
:''"So? What are you young’ns doing here?"
:''"Ohhh... That’s it, isn’t it? You were putting the Rusted Sword and the Rusted Shield back in their place?"
:''"Can’t just keep holding on to them forever, right?"
:''"You forgot entirely, didn’t you? What, you think the two of you are besties now with Zacian and Zamazenta or something?!"
::'''If talked to again''' :''"I don’t have the best memories of the Slumbering Weald, but I came to do a quick investigation. Hurry it up, and put the Rusted Sword and the Rusted Shield back where they belong! I’d like to get a photo of them on location."

* After returning the Rusted Sword{{sup/8|Sw}}/Rusted Shield{{sup/8|Sh}}
:''"I think I’ll stay a bit longer. I want to do a little more research here in the forest."
:''"Hm? My Power Spot Detector is going off..."
:''"Eh, ah, hello... You bought my book?"
:''"What?! There are no lies printed in that book!"
:''"What exactly are you two supposed to be?"

*After Battle
:''"What does that even mean...?"
:''"Mural? You mean the one that hid the historical ruins of Zacian and the others? And hold on a moment—<player> wasn’t the one who destroyed it."
:''"Hold on, Hop!"
:''"Ugh, that kid. He’s gone and recklessly run off..."
:''"At least you’re calm, <player>. I expected as much."
:''"I’m surprised that Hop lost to someone like that. He looked upset about something during the battle. Maybe that had something to do with it?"
:''"His own rival became the new Champion, and his goal vanished before his eyes... You can’t help but wonder how he feels about it all."
:''"Anyway! [[Sordward]] and [[Shielbert]], was it? I think I might know something about where those two weirdos went..."
:''"Shall we go over it at the lab in [[Wedgehurst]]?"
::'''Of course''' :''"I bet I didn’t even need to ask! Thanks! OK, we’ll meet up later, then! I’ll head back to the lab."
::'''I’m worried about Hop''' :''"I get it... You feel responsible for him and want to help him as soon as you can, right? OK, we’ll meet up later, then! I’ll head back to the lab."

* Pokémon Lab
:''"Hey, <player>! Glad you’re here.
::'''Who’s this?''' :''"She’s my assistant! I’ve been so busy with research lately that I’ve had to bring on some extra help."
::'''You got an assistant?''' :''"Spot on! I’ve been busy with my research, so I decided to bring on some extra help."
:''"I’ve been keeping all the Wishing Stars that Chairman Rose had been gathering here in the lab."
:''"Things have been a little hectic around here, but my assistant has been handling things in a proper fashion. She’s really been helping me keep things afloat."
:''"Come here for a moment, would you? There’s something I want you to have a look at."
:''"You remember my Power Spot Detector, right? It detects places where Dynamaxing is possible... Basically when there’s a high concentration of Galar particles, the readings spike..."
:''"And that’s how I figured it out!"
:''"The Power Spot Detector reacted when those two got close."
::'''Could it be...?''' :''"Exactly!"
::'''So what does that mean?''' :''"Basically..."
:''"follow the readings from the Power Spot Detector, and you might be able to find those sword and shield weirdos."
:''"[[Sordward]] and [[Shielbert]] might claim to be royalty, with their weird, fancy hairstyles. But it’s easier to just call them weirdos, don’t you think?"
:''"Let’s get back on topic, though!"
:''"I placed Power Spot Detectors all around Galar, and now it’s their time to shine."
:''"Power Spot Detectors—access!"
:''"Whoa, whoa! That’s a way bigger reaction than I would’ve thought! Looks like it’s coming from… Turffield Stadium?"
:''"You could always Dynamax Pokémon at the stadium, so that’s not exactly unusual. But these readings are way higher than normal!"
:''"It can’t be Eternatus... You already caught it. Maybe it’s something related to those sword and shield weirdos?"
:''"You should go check it out, <player>. Since you’re our snazzy new Champion and all!"
:''"I’ve set up your Town Map to show where the strong particle reactions are coming from, so have a look at it."
::'''If talked to again''' :''"I’ll leave looking into Turffield to you. I’ll stay here and try to look into those rude weirdos."

;[[Turffield]]
* After defeating the Dynamax Pokémon
:''"Ah, there you are, <player>! Things are a right proper mess!"
:''"Just when I though the Galar particle count around Turffield had calmed down..."
:''"I started getting huge Galar particle readings from Hulbury Stadium and Motostoke Stadium!"
:''"So, what exactly happened at Turffield Stadium?"
::'''Explain exactly what happened''' :''"What?! A Dynamax Pokémon went on a rampage?"
::'''Exaggerate what happened''' :''"What?! A Dynamax Pokémon completely destroyed the stadium? Wait... Turffield Stadium is still there."
:''"Huh? Those sword and shield weirdos did it?"
:''"Hm? Hop and...Piers?!"
:''"Piers, what are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be back in Spikemuth?"
:''"Yes. I’m getting the same readings in other towns as I was from Turffield Stadium."
:''"Ah, but [[Spikemuth]] Gym should be OK, right? I’m only seeing readings from Hulbury Stadium and Motostoke Stadium."
:''"Leave those sword and shield weirdos to me."
:''"I can poke around the net for sightings of them!"
::'''If talked to again''' :''"Those sword and shield weirdos stick out like a sore thumb. It shouldn’t be too hard to find them. Time for a little searching on social media!"

:''"<player>! We’ve got trouble! Those two weirdos have showed up at the Pokémon Lab!"

* After Battle
:''"Those men are dangerous! Be careful!"
:''"What? Stop! Give back those Wishing Stars!"

::'''If talked to again''' :''"... ... ..."

* Outside Pokémon Lab
:''"Wait! Don’t just leave without saying anything!"
:''"Of course I’d be down on myself! It was my fault I for tricked by a Nickit in Wooloo’s clothing."
:''"But that’s it! No more feeling sorry for myself!"
:''"That lot made off like bandits with all the Wishing stars!"
:''"It’d be awful if they were used for some evil purpose, so there’s no time to be feeling down!"
:''"Gran..."
:''"But why? What reason could they have for forcing Pokémon to Dynamax?"
:''"I’m curious about what my former assistant said about a royal lineage. Did she mean it literally?"
:''"...Ah, <player>! Look at your Town Map!"
:''"I’m detecting huge reactions at four stadiums now!"
:''"Ah, [[Spikemuth]] seems to be OK. There’s no Power Spot stadium there..."

* Before visiting all four Gyms
:''"Oh, <player>! Someone saw those sword and shield weirdos! They said they got through the door! But the door’s closed with an electric lock. Opening it might take some time..."

:''"Righto! We’ve stopped them from causing any harm! Still, I hope Zamazenta{{sup/8|Sw}}/Zacian{{sup/8|Sh}} is OK..."
:''"<player>, your Rotom Phone! Probably Hop, I reckon!"
:''"He sure sounds like he’s got his hands full. Guess some things never change!"
:''"Even in its Poké Ball, [[Zacian]]{{sup/8|Sw}}/[[Zamazenta]]{{sup/8|Sh}} seems worried about its partner. We should go to the Slumbering Weald and see how Hop and [[Zamazenta]]{{sup/8|Sw}}/[[Zacian]]{{sup/8|Sh}} are doing."

;[[Slumbering Weald]]
:'''If talked to''' :''"Want me to show you to the center of the woods, where [[Hop]] is waiting?"
::'''Yes''' :''"All right! Let’s get a move on."
::'''No''' :''"OK! Take all the time you need to prepare."
:''"Hop! You look a fright!"
:''"*sigh* Rushing in and trying to calm a legendary hero head on was awful reckless..."
:''"What did [[Zamazenta]]{{sup/8|Sw}}/[[Zacian]]{{sup/8|Sh}} say?"
:''"Wait, seriously?! That’s totally crazy!"
:''"You two really are something!"
:'''If talked to again''' :''"[[Hop]] sure must be tough if he’s been accepted by [[Zamazenta]]{{sup/8|Sw}}/[[Zacian]]{{sup/8|Sh}}. Make sure you’re in top form before challenging him. If you need some time to prepare, I can take you back to the entrance of the woods."
::'''Yes''' :''"All right! Let’s get a move on."
::'''No''' :''"OK! Take all the time you need to prepare."

* After Battle
:''"Ahhh! No fair. You two are so young and cute."
:''"I’m tearing up."
:''"What?! I’m still young and super energetic!"
:''"Say, [[Hop]]. Fancy becoming my assistant at the lab?"
:''"I’ve got all the books and data on Pokémon you could ever want!"
:''"Since you want to be a professor someday, I’ll oversee your studies!"
:''"Of course! Mind you, it’ll be a lot of work. Work’s really been piling up since I lost my first assistant!"
:''"What’re you lot doing here?"
:''"I already told you two... [[Zacian]] and [[Zamazenta]] are the real royalty."
:''"Oh? [[Leon]] gave you some pretty high praise. You look like the Meowth’s got your tongue, Hop."
:''"All right, I guess we should get going, too..."

:'''If talked to''' :''"If it isn’t <player>. Hop’s been studying pretty hard, surprisingly. I’m sure he’d be glad to know you dropped by for a visit."

'''Sonia''' (Japanese: '''ソニア''' ''Sonia'') is a character introduced in [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]].

==In the games==
Sonia is the granddaughter and assistant of [[Professor Magnolia]]. She is also [[Leon]]'s childhood friend. Sonia and her partner Pokémon, {{p|Yamper}}, participated in the [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]] with Leon, but eventually dropped out. Sonia spends the duration of the game discovering what she wants to do with her life, eventually choosing to pursue the truth behind the legends of the first king of [[Galar]] and the [[Darkest Day]]. Together with the {{player}} and [[Hop]], she discovers the existence of {{p|Zacian}}, {{p|Zamazenta}}, and {{p|Eternatus}}; and publishes her findings in [[Sonia's Book|a book]], a feat that helps her be recognized as a {{pkmn|Professor}} just like her grandmother.

====Quotes====
{{incomplete|section}}
;[[Wedgehurst]]
* Pokémon Lab
:''"What is it today, [[Leon]]? Looking for info on another never-before-seen, superstrong Pokémon? I wish you’d stop with these outlandish requests."
:''"Tsk. What kind of an introduction is that? Did you forget we were rivals during our Gym Challenge? It wasn’t just [[Yamper]] helping you out. I did, too."
:''"Anyway, nice to meet you! Name’s Sonia. I’m the professor’s assistant."
:''"*sigh* What does he think I am? He’s always got his head in the clouds. It’s no wonder he gets lost all the time."
:''"Oh. Looks like you’ve got a [[Rotom Phone]]. Hey there, Rotom!"
:''"Rotom Phones are handy little things, aren’t they? They’ve got a map and a navigation tool. That said, Leon still gets lost, so…"
:''"Oh, sorry. So tell me, do you know a lot about [[Pokémon]]?"
::'''You bet!''' :''"Well said! In that case, I’ll make it so that you can use the [[Pokédex]] on your Rotom Phone!"
::'''Not really...''' : ''"Don’t worry! Here, I’ll make it so that you can use the [[Pokédex]] on your Rotom Phone!"
:''"Just so you know, that [[Pokédex]] is a gift from my gran! Could you let Gran know that you received the [[Pokédex]]? She lives in the house down along Route 2."
::'''If talked to again''' : ''"Leon’s a right amazing Champion, and I’m basically just an assistant... I’m not even Gran’s official assistant, either. I’ve just been calling myself one... Somehow, it makes me feel a little restless."

;{{rt|2|Galar}}
* Outside Magnolia's House
:''"Seems I came back home right in time for all the excitement!"
:''"Hey, you lot, why not have some dinner. You must be hungry, right? I’ve been totally obsessed with making the latest trendy curries."

* Magnolia's House
:''"Hop, is it true you really met some Pokémon you didn’t recognize? Is there anything more you can tell me about it?"
:''"A right fount of information you are."
::'''If talked to again''' :''"A strange Pokémon in the Slumbering Weald... I don’t know... I’ve got an uneasy feeling for some reason..."

;[[Meetup Spot]]
:''"My gran gave me a proper earful, in her own way… “Those two young Trainers are setting out on a journey, but what are you doing with your life?”"
::'''That sounds rough/Ouch, Professor''' :''"Ah…Never you mind that! Nothing to worry yourselves over! Besides, I’d been quite curious about that Pokémon you two met in the forest. I’d been thinking I should look into it, so the timing works out fine!"
:''"If I discover something really huge, then maybe even Gran’ll admit I’ve got some talent!"
:''"I said you needn’t worry about it! I’m glad to be on the road. Really! It’s been ages. It’ll be great to fish and camp and rough it outside again."
:''"What cheek! [[Dynamax]] [[Pokémon]] are really on another level, you know! You’d better [[Dynamax]] your partner Pokémon, too, if you want to take on opponents that strong!"
:''"You’ll find spots here and there in the Wild Area that emit a red beam of light. If you think you’re up to it, check them out. There’ll be [[Dynamax]] [[Pokémon]] lurking inside! So with that, how about I send you off with a little treat from me?"
:''"With a Pokémon Box Link, you’ll be able to put Pokémon from your team into your Boxes or take Pokémon from your Boxes to add them to your team. Nice, right? So go wild catching as many Pokémon as you like, and fill in some more of your Pokédex!"
:''"The Wild Area is waiting for you! This is the start of your real adventure!"

;[[Motostoke]]
* Outside Pokémon Center
:''"Hey! Over Here!"
:''"Real Ace of you to make it through the Wild Area! Seems like your trek ran your [[Pokémon]] ragged, though. You should pop into the Pokémon Center."
:''"Besides, there’s something I bet you’ll get a kick out of...if you’re a real Trainer and all."

* Pokémon Center
:''"Oh, looks like the Rotomi’s free."
:''"Rotomi are a kind of rotom Information service. It’s a handy machine for Trainers. You can even use one to customize your League Card!"
:''"Why don’t you try playing around with your League Card a bit, <player>? Here’s a sample for you!"
:''"But Motostoke sure is big, right? Not to worry! Sonia is here to show you around a bit! Come find me after you heal up your Pokémon!"
:''"The opening ceremony, huh... I get a bit worked up when I think how exciting and moving it was to actually stand on a stadium’s pitch for the first time!"

* Outside
:''"So, brilliant young Trainer who’s braved the Wild Area! Do you remember what your goal in Motostoke is?"
::'''I’m here for the Gym Challenge!''' :''"Yup! The Gym Challenge opening ceremony."
::'''Uhhh...''' :''"What? You seriously forgot about the Gym Challenge opening ceremony?"
:''"By the way, the ceremony tomorrow is being held at the Motostoke Stadium, OK?"
:''"Use that lift over there to get to the stadium, ‘K?"
:''"Well, laters! I’m going to swing by the shops while I’m here, but don’t forget to register at the stadium, ‘K?"

* Boutique
:''"My gran told me I needed to go on a journey, but a girl needs a bit of joy in her life, too! Are you to here to do some shopping as well? Don’t forget to register at the stadium!"

* Budew Drop Inn
:''"Hiya! Looks like you both got yourselves registered."
:''"It’s a statue of the hero who once saved the [[Galar]] region. I could run through the legend right quick, if you fancy?"
::'''The short version, if you please!''' :''"Long ago...a great black storm covered the [[Galar]] region. People called it “the Darkest Day.” The land was assaulted by gigantic Pokémon...but they were defeated by a single young hero bearing a sword and shield. The statue here is meant to depict the young hero of that legend."
::'''Give me all the details!''' :''"Long ago...a great black storm covered the Galar region. People called it “the Darkest Day.” The land was assaulted by gigantic Pokémon...but they were defeated by a single young hero bearing a sword and shield. The statue here is meant to depict the young hero of that legend. We still don’t understand what kind of sword and shield the hero actually had. And what this “black storm” is supposed to be is just another mystery... Whatever it was, it blotted out the skies all across Galar. I suppose that tracks with it being called the Darkest Day, but still..."
:'''You’ll be all right, Sonia!''' :''"Heh, thanks! I’ll muddle through somehow—don’t you worry!"
:'''Will you be all right, Sonia?''' :''"Course I will. I’ll muddle through somehow—don’t you worry!"
:''"You two are staying here at the hotel tonight, though, aren’t you? Shouldn’t you check in?"
::'''If talked to again''' :''"Thanks for always taggin’ along with [[Hop]]. I hope you can keep it up. Leon really worries about him, too. He practically raised him, after all."

;{{rt|3|Galar}}
:''"Heya, Gym Challenger! You looked real ace out there during the opening ceremony!"
:''"Oh, but where’s [[Hop]]?"
::'''He went on ahead''' :''"He can’t sit still at all, can he? Guess he really wants to catch up to his brother."
::'''He went a different way''' :''"Well, you’re rivals, after all. I guess it makes sense you’d train on your own."
:''"Oh, I know! Let me tell you about something a bit interesting."
:''"You see that building over there? It’s a company owned by Chairman Rose."
:''"Just past Route 3, there’s a mine where they dig up ore. That building over there processes it into energy."
:''"In other words, the chairman is responsible for providing the Galar region with its energy, too."
:''"Can’t say I really get him, but the chairman seems like a pretty brilliant guy, right?"
:''"Here, a little something for having a chin-wag with me! It’s an Escape Rope."
:''"I’ll heal up your Pokémon, too!"
:''"The way to [[Turffield]] is pretty long, but that’s a kind of challenge in its own right. Good luck, Gym Challenger!"

;[[Turffield]]
:''"Thanks, Yamper!"
:''"I had you come ’cause I wanted to hear what you thought."
:''"So, that geoglyph... What do you think of it?"
::'''The Darkest Day?''' :''"Right perceptive of you. Especially since the portion depicting the black storm has mostly disappeared."
::'''Dynamax?''' :''"Seems likely... It certainly looks like a gigantic Pokémon. I suppose people three thousand years ago could’ve just imagined this, but it looks too similar to Dynamax. It can’t just be coincidence."
:''"A long time ago...a great black storm covered the Galar region. Giant Pokémon ran rampant... But what was that black storm they called “the Darkest Day”? What connection does it have to Dynamax?"
:''"Guess I’m the lucky lady who’ll be looking into that... Gran sure gives me a lot to do."
:''"Thanks for your thoughts on the matter! As thanks, I’ll give you a League Card."
:''"[[Milo]]’s a Grass-type Gym Leader. Things will go well for you if you use Fire-, Flying-, or Bug-type moves. Take these, too! It’d be pretty bad if your Pokémon weren’t in fighting form!"
:''"Go on, then! Get yourself to Turffield Stadium and battle yourself silly!"

;[[Hulbury]]
* Captain's Table
:''"Oh, were you invited, too?"
:''"*sigh* She was saying that here’s still so much we don’t know about Dynamaxing. It’s causing her some worry. She even made me take a Power Spot Detector with me when I started traveling..."
:''"*sigh* Does he think he’s doing me a favor? He’s right that the vault would be a good place to look for info on the legends, but..."
:''"You got the Water Badge, yeah? Defeating Nessa’s no small feat. Here’s a TM as a reward!"
:''"[[Nessa]]’s a good friend. Perhaps I should drop in on her. Until net time, Gym Challenger!"

;[[Hammerlocke]]
* Vault
:''"Oh, you’re here."
:''"Brilliant, aren’t they? It’s great that there are still treasured tapestries that can tell us of Galar’s history."
:''"The two youths watching a Wishing Star."
:''"A disaster occurs... The two bewildered youths."
:''"The youths looking on at the sword and shield that stop the disaster."
:''"The youths being crowned."
:''"These tapestries tell the story of the creation of a kingdom in [[Galar]]."
:''"Say, young Gym Challenger, what sticks out to you the most about them?"
::'''There’s two heroes?''' :''"Band on! The statue at the hotel in [[Motostoke]] only had one hero, no matter how you slice it. But here, we clearly have two youths."
::'''The Darkest Day?''' :''"Right? That’s got to be it. The story of the black storm that blotted out the skies was passed on through the years as a tale of disaster… That’s what the Darkest Day is!"
:''"Was there really only one hero, or were there two? And what even caused the Darkest Day?"
:''"Thanks for letting me bounce some ideas off you. I think I’ve got some theories now. I’m going to research the tapestries a tad more, but you have your Gym Challenge, right? I’m cheering for you, so take a couple of these. I hope to see more of your wins!"
::'''If talked to again''' :''"Whatever happened to the sword and shield that drove off the disaster?"

;[[Stow-on-Side]]
* After defeating the Gym
:''"Looks like my [[Yamper]] really likes you, huh? Anyway, we’ve run into each other at a good time. You know the mural here in [[Stow-on-Side]]? It’s said to tell the story of the hero of [[Galar]] as well. Though what’s there today is actually a replica of the ancient art that used to be here..."
:''"You tend to have surprisingly sharp insight, so I was wondering what you might think when you see the ruins."
:''"Wha...? What in the world was that? Sounds like it came from the direction of the ruins, too..."
:''"Let’s have a look! Come along, [[Yamper]]!"
:''"What’s going on up there?!"
:''"You know, during one of [[Bede]]’s matches, I heard the announcer say that [[Bede]] has no family. Apparently it was [[Rose]] who took Bede under his wing, and so Bede was battling for the chairman’s sake."
:''"What an awful turn of events… I hope the mural survived all that."
:''"Not a brilliant turn of events, but the ruins were brought into the light for us to see..."
:''"What does this tell us about Galar’s legends?"
::'''Pokémon?/A sword and shield?''' :''"Right! More than any hero, there’s those things that appear to be Pokémon that stand out! Not just that, but those Pokémon appear to be holding a sword and a shield as if they were using them!"
:''"Anything else look interesting to you?"
::'''The hero...was actually two people?/The same as the tapestries?''' :''"Oh, good observation! There really were two heroes. But if that’s the case, then why only the one statue at the Budew Drop Inn?"
:''"More than any statue of a hero or old tapestry, these ruins made in truly ancient times must show us the real truth."
:''"Which means..."
::'''The sword is a Pokémon!/The shield is a Pokémon!''' :''"Yup! I was thinking the same thing! Seems like at some point in history the sword and shield were combined with the two actual Pokémon and treated as the same thing... But then what? They just faded from history?"
:''"Two young heroes... The sword and shield were actually Pokémon... But why would the truth of these ruins be hidden when their stories were depicted in artwork?"
:''"With your help, I really feel like we made a big discovery here. Thanks! I’ll give you a couple of these, so you keep giving it your best in the Gym Challenge, too, OK? Guess you’ll be headed to [[Ballonlea]] next, right?"
:'''If talked to again''' :''"So... There was history being covered up by all that over-stylized artwork... I’m gonna have to look into this some more."

;[[Hammerlocke]]
* After defeating [[Opal]]
:''"Heya! The Badge collecting going well?"
:''"I’ve been doing some research on the ruins in Stow-on-Side... The sword and shield... What kind of Pokémon were they? And where are they now? I still have so many questions, I was thinking about taking another look at the tapestries in—"
:''"Are you kidding me?!"
:''"What was that?!"
:''"Hammerlocke Stadium shook..."
:''"That’s where Chairman Rose’s power plant is, isn’t it?"
:''"Huh? A Power Spot?!"
::'''What’s wrong?''' :''"I’m getting readings from the Power Spot Detector… Does that mean Dynamaxing is possible here?"
::'''You mean, like where you can Dynamax?''' :''"That’s right! The Power Spot Detector reacts when it’s possible to Dynamax!"
:''"This is bad! Pokémon might start Dynamaxing right in the middle of Hammerlocke!"
:''"You’ll just get lost, Leon. I’m going, too!"
:''"I’m really looking forward to seeing you compete in the Finals. So you should leave the investigation on the quaking to the adults. Head to Circhester and get that Gym Badge!"

;[[Circhester]]
* After defeating the Gym
:''"That battle was brilliant! That Gym Leader was tough, but you had no trouble."
:''"Circhester has some really great restaurants."
:''"I got some things I want to talk to you about, so let’s head to a restaurant to celebrate your win! The name of the restaurant is Bob’s Your Uncle!"

* Bob’s Your Uncle
:''"Oh, hey! There you are."
:''"I’ve been trying to find out more about the Darkest Day and the sword and shield [[Pokémon]], but still no luck..."
:''"Wait! Hold on!"
:''"No way! What’s this?!"
::'''A new chapter in the old [[Galar]] legends?/A fifth tapestry!''' :''"The heroes look sad... And where are the sword and shield?"
::'''An absolutely fantastic poster!''' :''"Exactly! Bob, with his brilliant smile, must be part of the legend! Wait, what are you on about?! Don’t confuse me! The heroes look sad... And where are the sword and shield?
:''"What was the meaning of this picture?"
::'''An end to the legend?''' :''"Hmm... Perhaps when their duty was completed, they went into some kind of sleep?"
::'''Some kind of seal?''' :''"You think so? I guess it could be that they were sealed away. Or maybe they’ve gone into some kind of sleep?"
:''"That’s right! That’s my take on it, at least."
:''"You...met them?"
:''"Oh, that’s right! You lot have been in the Slumbering Weald."
:''"I only started on this journey because my gran told me to, but this is turning out to be too much fun! You’ve got to tell me more. How about we discuss this over a meal? Go on, what do you want to eat? Let’s get our orders in!"
:''"Fascinating... All right, the next thing to do now that we’re done eating is to have a look around Circhester! Let’s inspect the Hero’s Bath!"

* Hero's Bath
:''"The Hero’s Bath... They say this is where the two heroes came to sooth their wounds after the battle to bring down that evil presence, long ago."
:''"Nowadays only Pokémon really use the Hero’s Bath, though... Hmm... Who exactly were the heroes that bathed here? I think I’ll have to look into that."
:''"You two met a mysterious Pokémon back in the Slumbering Weald... Perhaps...you two can become new heroes."
:''"What kind of battle do you think the heroes had back then?"
::'''After agreeing to battle Hop''' :''"I don’t entirely understand your reasoning, but I might just as well see what you can do. I’ll heal up your Pokémon for you, <player>, so give it your best!"

* After Battle
:''"Thanks! You two gave a right proper battle... At the rate you both are going, even the unbeatable Leon may be in trouble! So what’s next, you two? I plan to look into things in the Slumbering Weald."
:''"Seems like he finally shook off that gloom. Leon’d worry if Hop wasn’t feeling all right. As his rival, you wouldn’t like it either, right? See ya."

;[[Hammerlocke]]
* After defeating [[Piers]]
:''"Well, if it isn’t <player>."
:''"I’d expect nothing less from you and your [[Charizard]], [[Leon]]! You took down that [[Dynamax]] [[Pokémon]] in no time at all!"
:''"An overflowing red light... Pokémon Dynamaxing without a Power Spot?"
:''"I’m not sure... What’s going on? That red light could suddenly appear again at any time and we’d have no way of knowing."
:''"Gran?!"
:''"Are you saying that red light and the Darkest Day are connected?!"
:''"Gran, there’s something I want to look into. You’ll help me, right?"

* After defeating [[Raihan]]
:''"Hey there, <player>! You gave [[Raihan]] a good thrashing, and that means you’ve completed the Gym Challenge! Congratulations, from the bottom of my heart!"
:''"I really wish we could go celebrate, but I think there’s some things we should talk over."
:''"That light that covered [[Hammerlocke]]... It was just like the Darkest Day, where it’s said that giant Pokémon went on a rampage and almost destroyed the entire Galar region."
:''"The legendary sword and shield..."
:''"Are you sure, Gran? I still haven’t finished the work you’ve assigned me."
:'''Professor Sonia!/It looks great!''' :''"Y-yeah!"
:''"I know, Gran!"
:''"I’ll do what I can! You or Hop could be the one to take down Leon, and I don’t want to miss that! Not to worry—you can count on me to take care of everything! You just focus on getting to Wyndon. Go on! Head to the station, or you’ll miss your train!"
::'''If talked to again''' :''"The station’s near Route 7, remember? Now, off with you Gym Challenger!"

;[[Postwick]]
* After Rose interrupts the Championship Match
:''"Huh? <player> and Hop? Ah! I completely forgot about the Championship Match! What’re you two doing here?"
:''"Huh? What?! What happened while I was researching things in the Slumbering Weald?"
:''"Hold on a tick, ma’am. Did you say “the Darkest Day”?
:''"“The Darkest Day” is the name for the black storm that nearly brought the Galar region to ruin in ancient times..."
:''"So what’re you here for, <player>?
::'''I’m here to stop the Darkest Day!''' :''"To stop the Darkest Day... You mean you’re going to search for the sword and shield Pokémon?"
::'''To search for the sword/shield Pokémon''' :''"I suppose if the legends are true, then the sword and shield Pokémon should be able to prevent the Darkest Day from coming to pass... They may be just what we need to beat back the black storm!"
:''"OK! Here, take this. You should head to the Slumbering Weald. I’ll catch up with you once I’m done looking into something that’s been bothering me."
::'''If talked to again''' :''"I’ve got to keep looking into the origin of the sword and shield Pokémon!"

;[[Slumbering Weald]]
* After encountering the Legendary Pokémon
:''"You two... What in the world are you doing?"
:''"Hop, you sure you haven’t lost the plot? There was no one here but the two of you..."
:''"Listen! I dug into some literature from other regions, and I finally found something! Mentions of the sword Pokémon, [[Zacian]], and the shield Pokémon, called [[Zamazenta]]. The writings said that those two Pokémon were born somewhere beyond the [[Slumbering Weald]] sometime long, long ago."
::'''If talked to again''' :''"Zacian and Zamazenta... They may have been sleeping in the [[Slumbering Weald]] right next to your hometown all this time. Perhaps that’s why no one has entered the deepest parts of these woods for so long..."

* After defeating Leon
:''"And if it isn’t the two of you again. I was wondering what all the noise was about."
:''"<player>! Congratulations on beating Leon!"
::'''Thank you''' :''"Taking it all in stride like it’s your due, eh? You cheeky thing!"
::'''It was nothing...''' :''"Oh, trying to act modest, are you? Go on—you’ve earned the right to be proud!"
:''"Hop, I’m actually not working as my gran’s assistant any longer..."
:''"In fact... I’m the professor now!"
:''"And really, I’ve got the two of you to thank for that."
:''"I was just along for the ride on your adventure, but I ended up taking a real interest in the history of the Galar region."
:''"And I came to care for Pokémon even more than I ever had before!"
:''"Ah, here! It’s a book I wrote! I even signed it—that makes it a collector’s item."
:''"Aww, thanks, Hop! That’s so sweet. I’ll sign your copy for you later." :''"Anyway, I’ve got my gran’s blessing and put out my first book under my own name... I think you can expect great things of the lovely Professor Sonia in the future, wouldn’t you say?"
:''"So? What are you young’ns doing here?"
:''"Ohhh... That’s it, isn’t it? You were putting the Rusted Sword and the Rusted Shield back in their place?"
:''"Can’t just keep holding on to them forever, right?"
:''"You forgot entirely, didn’t you? What, you think the two of you are besties now with Zacian and Zamazenta or something?!"
::'''If talked to again''' :''"I don’t have the best memories of the Slumbering Weald, but I came to do a quick investigation. Hurry it up, and put the Rusted Sword and the Rusted Shield back where they belong! I’d like to get a photo of them on location."

* After returning the Rusted Sword{{sup/8|Sw}}/Rusted Shield{{sup/8|Sh}}
:''"I think I’ll stay a bit longer. I want to do a little more research here in the forest."
:''"Hm? My Power Spot Detector is going off..."
:''"Eh, ah, hello... You bought my book?"
:''"What?! There are no lies printed in that book!"
:''"What exactly are you two supposed to be?"

*After Battle
:''"What does that even mean...?"
:''"Mural? You mean the one that hid the historical ruins of Zacian and the others? And hold on a moment—<player> wasn’t the one who destroyed it."
:''"Hold on, Hop!"
:''"Ugh, that kid. He’s gone and recklessly run off..."
:''"At least you’re calm, <player>. I expected as much."
:''"I’m surprised that Hop lost to someone like that. He looked upset about something during the battle. Maybe that had something to do with it?"
:''"His own rival became the new Champion, and his goal vanished before his eyes... You can’t help but wonder how he feels about it all."
:''"Anyway! [[Sordward]] and [[Shielbert]], was it? I think I might know something about where those two weirdos went..."
:''"Shall we go over it at the lab in [[Wedgehurst]]?"
::'''Of course''' :''"I bet I didn’t even need to ask! Thanks! OK, we’ll meet up later, then! I’ll head back to the lab."
::'''I’m worried about Hop''' :''"I get it... You feel responsible for him and want to help him as soon as you can, right? OK, we’ll meet up later, then! I’ll head back to the lab."

;[[Wedgehurst]]
* Pokémon Lab
:''"Hey, <player>! Glad you’re here.
::'''Who’s this?''' :''"She’s my assistant! I’ve been so busy with research lately that I’ve had to bring on some extra help."
::'''You got an assistant?''' :''"Spot on! I’ve been busy with my research, so I decided to bring on some extra help."
:''"I’ve been keeping all the Wishing Stars that Chairman Rose had been gathering here in the lab."
:''"Things have been a little hectic around here, but my assistant has been handling things in a proper fashion. She’s really been helping me keep things afloat."
:''"Come here for a moment, would you? There’s something I want you to have a look at."
:''"You remember my Power Spot Detector, right? It detects places where Dynamaxing is possible... Basically when there’s a high concentration of Galar particles, the readings spike..."
:''"And that’s how I figured it out!"
:''"The Power Spot Detector reacted when those two got close."
::'''Could it be...?''' :''"Exactly!"
::'''So what does that mean?''' :''"Basically..."
:''"follow the readings from the Power Spot Detector, and you might be able to find those sword and shield weirdos."
:''"[[Sordward]] and [[Shielbert]] might claim to be royalty, with their weird, fancy hairstyles. But it’s easier to just call them weirdos, don’t you think?"
:''"Let’s get back on topic, though!"
:''"I placed Power Spot Detectors all around Galar, and now it’s their time to shine."
:''"Power Spot Detectors—access!"
:''"Whoa, whoa! That’s a way bigger reaction than I would’ve thought! Looks like it’s coming from… Turffield Stadium?"
:''"You could always Dynamax Pokémon at the stadium, so that’s not exactly unusual. But these readings are way higher than normal!"
:''"It can’t be Eternatus... You already caught it. Maybe it’s something related to those sword and shield weirdos?"
:''"You should go check it out, <player>. Since you’re our snazzy new Champion and all!"
:''"I’ve set up your Town Map to show where the strong particle reactions are coming from, so have a look at it."
::'''If talked to again''' :''"I’ll leave looking into Turffield to you. I’ll stay here and try to look into those rude weirdos."

;[[Turffield]]
* After defeating the Dynamax Pokémon
:''"Ah, there you are, <player>! Things are a right proper mess!"
:''"Just when I though the Galar particle count around Turffield had calmed down..."
:''"I started getting huge Galar particle readings from Hulbury Stadium and Motostoke Stadium!"
:''"So, what exactly happened at Turffield Stadium?"
::'''Explain exactly what happened''' :''"What?! A Dynamax Pokémon went on a rampage?"
::'''Exaggerate what happened''' :''"What?! A Dynamax Pokémon completely destroyed the stadium? Wait... Turffield Stadium is still there."
:''"Huh? Those sword and shield weirdos did it?"
:''"Hm? Hop and...Piers?!"
:''"Piers, what are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be back in Spikemuth?"
:''"Yes. I’m getting the same readings in other towns as I was from Turffield Stadium."
:''"Ah, but [[Spikemuth]] Gym should be OK, right? I’m only seeing readings from Hulbury Stadium and Motostoke Stadium."
:''"Leave those sword and shield weirdos to me."
:''"I can poke around the net for sightings of them!"
::'''If talked to again''' :''"Those sword and shield weirdos stick out like a sore thumb. It shouldn’t be too hard to find them. Time for a little searching on social media!"

;[[Rotom Phone]]
* After visiting both [[Hulbury]] Gym and [[Motostoke]] Gym
:''"<player>! We’ve got trouble! Those two weirdos have showed up at the Pokémon Lab!"
:''"They keep rudely demanding I hand over Wishing Stars. I’m all right for now, but get over here quick, OK? These guys are right creepy!"

;[[Wedgehurst]]
* Pokémon Lab
:''"Wishing Stars and being a celebrity have nothing to do with each other!"
:''"I don’t know how you knew about this, but there’s no way we’re giving them to you!"
:''"Hop!"
:''"Don’t let these goons put you down!"

* After Battle
:''"Those men are dangerous! Be careful!"
:''"What? Stop! Give back those Wishing Stars!"
:''"Why?!"
:''"Was everything... Was it all a lie, right from the start?"
::'''If talked to again''' :''"... ... ..."

* Outside Pokémon Lab
:''"Wait! Don’t just leave without saying anything!"
:''"Of course I’d be down on myself! It was my fault I for tricked by a Nickit in Wooloo’s clothing."
:''"But that’s it! No more feeling sorry for myself!"
:''"That lot made off like bandits with all the Wishing stars!"
:''"It’d be awful if they were used for some evil purpose, so there’s no time to be feeling down!"
:''"Gran..."
:''"But why? What reason could they have for forcing Pokémon to Dynamax?"
:''"I’m curious about what my former assistant said about a royal lineage. Did she mean it literally?"
:''"...Ah, <player>! Look at your Town Map!"
:''"I’m detecting huge reactions at four stadiums now!"
:''"Ah, [[Spikemuth]] seems to be OK. There’s no Power Spot stadium there..."
:''"I’m sorry to leave it all to you, but you’ll have to take care of the Dynamax Pokémon. I’ll search for those sword and shield weirdos in the meantime!"

;[[Rotom Phone]]
* After visiting all four Gyms
:''"<player>! It's me! Sonia!"
:''"Those sword and shield weirdos got into Hammerlocke Stadium and are headed for the Energy Plant."
:''"The door to the plant’s locked, but I think I can get it open. Give me a bit, and you’ll be able to get in there!"
:''"You hear that? [[Hammerlocke]] Stadium. Get over there as soon as you can!"

;[[Hammerlocke]]
* Before visiting all four Gyms
:''"Oh, <player>! Someone saw those sword and shield weirdos! They said they got through the door! But the door’s closed with an electric lock. Opening it might take some time..."

* After Sonia calls the player
:''"Wha—? You’re back already? Hold on a moment! I think I’ve got it... Huh? That’s strange..."
:''"What?! It...it opened?!"
:''"[[Yamper]]! I should’ve known! Thanks for your help!"
:''"Those two weird guys are probably up ahead. Be careful!"

* Energy Plant
:''"... ... ..."
:''"Well... I could believe that you two are descendants of a Galarian king..."
:''"You’re wrong! What I wrote was the truth!"
:''"My hypothesis was that [[Zacian]] and [[Zamazenta]] have been protecting the [[Galar]] region since ancient times!"
::'''If talked to''' :''"I can’t really battle, but I’ll support you however I can!"

*After Battle
:''"What was that sound?"

* Tower Summit
:''"Stop! [[Zamazenta]]{{sup/8|Sw}}/[[Zacian]]{{sup/8|Sh}} is in pain!"
:''"It’s trying to suppress and calm itself, but it can’t control all the power!"
:''"It’s coming, <player>!"

*After defeating [[Zamazenta]]{{sup/8|Sw}}/[[Zacian]]{{sup/8|Sh}}
:''"Hop! Watch out!"
::'''If talked to''' :''"Amazing… Absolutely incredible, <player>... I wonder if [[Zacian]]{{sup/8|Sw}}/[[Zamazenta]]{{sup/8|Sh}} is thanking you, too?"

* After catching [[Zacian]]{{sup/8|Sw}}/[[Zamazenta]]{{sup/8|Sh}}
:''"Wow, brilliant! Seems like you’ve been recognized by real royalty!"
:''"Ah."
:''"I was really hurt at first, but I’ve rallied. Thanks to you, I ended up learning quite a bit... Ah, that came off a bit more sarcastic than I thought it would!"
:''"Righto! We’ve stopped them from causing any harm! Still, I hope Zamazenta{{sup/8|Sw}}/Zacian{{sup/8|Sh}} is OK..."
:''"<player>, your Rotom Phone! Probably Hop, I reckon!"
:''"He sure sounds like he’s got his hands full. Guess some things never change!"
:''"Even in its Poké Ball, [[Zacian]]{{sup/8|Sw}}/[[Zamazenta]]{{sup/8|Sh}} seems worried about its partner. We should go to the Slumbering Weald and see how Hop and [[Zamazenta]]{{sup/8|Sw}}/[[Zacian]]{{sup/8|Sh}} are doing."

;[[Slumbering Weald]]
:'''If talked to''' :''"Want me to show you to the center of the woods, where [[Hop]] is waiting?"
::'''Yes''' :''"All right! Let’s get a move on."
::'''No''' :''"OK! Take all the time you need to prepare."
:''"Hop! You look a fright!"
:''"*sigh* Rushing in and trying to calm a legendary hero head on was awful reckless..."
:''"What did [[Zamazenta]]{{sup/8|Sw}}/[[Zacian]]{{sup/8|Sh}} say?"
:''"Wait, seriously?! That’s totally crazy!"
:''"You two really are something!"
:'''If talked to again''' :''"[[Hop]] sure must be tough if he’s been accepted by [[Zamazenta]]{{sup/8|Sw}}/[[Zacian]]{{sup/8|Sh}}. Make sure you’re in top form before challenging him. If you need some time to prepare, I can take you back to the entrance of the woods."
::'''Yes''' :''"All right! Let’s get a move on."
::'''No''' :''"OK! Take all the time you need to prepare."

* After Battle
:''"Ahhh! No fair. You two are so young and cute."
:''"I’m tearing up."
:''"What?! I’m still young and super energetic!"
:''"Say, [[Hop]]. Fancy becoming my assistant at the lab?"
:''"I’ve got all the books and data on Pokémon you could ever want!"
:''"Since you want to be a professor someday, I’ll oversee your studies!"
:''"Of course! Mind you, it’ll be a lot of work. Work’s really been piling up since I lost my first assistant!"
:''"What’re you lot doing here?"
:''"I already told you two... [[Zacian]] and [[Zamazenta]] are the real royalty."
:''"Oh? [[Leon]] gave you some pretty high praise. You look like the Meowth’s got your tongue, Hop."
:''"All right, I guess we should get going, too..."

'''Marnie''' (Japanese: '''マリィ''' ''Mary'') is one of the [[rival]] characters in [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], the others being [[Hop]] and [[Bede]], and [[Type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. She eventually replaces her older brother [[Piers]] as the [[Gym Leader]] of her [[hometown]] [[Spikemuth]]. As the Spikemuth Gym Leader, she gives the {{badge|Dark}} to Trainers who defeat her.

==In the games==
Marnie is one of the {{player}}'s [[rival]]s. She is a stoic, but well-mannered girl who wants to become {{pkmn|Champion}} to support her hometown, [[Spikemuth]]. Her [[starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]] is her {{p|Morpeko}}, who can be seen [[walking Pokémon|following her around]] outside of battle. She is constantly followed by her fan club, [[Team Yell]]. She can first be seen at [[Motostoke Stadium]] while the player and [[Hop]] register for the [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]]. The player first meets Marnie in the lobby of [[Motostoke]]'s Budew Drop Inn, where she scolds a group of {{tc|Team Yell Grunt}}s for causing trouble for the player, Hop, and other participants before introducing herself and apologizing on her behalf. After the player returns to Motostoke, the player has their first battle with her in the same lobby. The next day, Marnie will give them a copy of [[Kabu]]'s [[League Card]] and two [[Burn Heal]]s before seeing them off. The player later meets Marnie and Morpeko at [[Ballonlea Stadium]], where she learns her Morpeko has taken a liking to the player, and she gives them a copy of her League Card before officially acknowledging them as a rival.

Later, on the outskirts of Spikemuth on {{rt|9|Galar}}, Marnie will show the player an alternate way into town but insist on a battle before they can enter. After being defeated, Marnie gives them [[Piers]]'s League Card and leads them inside, claiming she'll get her revenge in the [[Galar League|Champion Cup]]. During their Spikemuth Gym Mission, the player will learn that Team Yell consists of the Gym's {{tc|Gym Trainer}}s, and that they blocked the main entrance to cut down on Marnie's competition. They also learn that the Gym Leader, Piers, is Marnie's older brother. After Piers is defeated, Marnie arrives to congratulate both her brother and her rival on the match and tells Piers she knows he plans to retire his title after the Champion Cup. Piers planned on offering the position to her, but Marnie refuses, telling him she can't be a Gym Leader if she becomes Champion. The player leaves Spikemuth while Marnie and Piers have their Gym Battle.

The player next meets Marnie as their first opponent in the semi-finals of the [[Wyndon Stadium]] Champion Cup. Marnie says she was expecting them, and that despite what they've been through together, she declares she's going to go all-out. Marnie is revealed to have a [[Dynamax Band]], unlike her brother, and uses it to [[Gigantamax]] the newest addition to her team, {{p|Grimmsnarl}}. After being defeated, Marnie thanks the player for the battle, saying that she enjoyed putting on a show for the crowd, but tells the player she hasn't yet decided who to root for just yet. After the semi-finals, the player and Hop meet Marnie, Piers, and Team Yell in front of the Rose of the Ronderlands hotel, who agree to help them look for [[Leon]]. While the player battles {{tc|Macro Cosmos's}} Eric, Marnie will lead Team Yell in cheering for the player, boosting their Pokémon's [[statistic|stats]]. As the player and the others reach [[Rose Tower]], Marnie and Piers will stay behind to hold off any other interlopers. Marnie later appears in the waiting room of Wyndon Stadium after Piers loses his match with [[Raihan]] in the Champion Cup finals, telling the player she'll be cheering for them.

After the player becomes Champion, they'll find Marnie in one of the rooms of the Budew Drop Inn, talking to her Morpeko. She attempts to practice smiling by pushing up the corners of her mouth, but when she is caught by the player, she runs off embarrassed. The player can then find her in Spikemuth, where she reveals she did take up Piers's offer, taking his place as Gym Leader. The player can train with her in a [[rematch]] here once daily. After being defeated for the first time, she will give the player a copy of her rare League Card. After obtaining this Card, they can encounter her in rematches in {{DL|Wyndon Stadium|Champion tournaments}} at [[Wyndon Stadium]], as well. Here, she will use the same team, only she will also Gigantamax her Grimmsnarl once more.

===League Cards===
This is a transcript of the back of Marnie's [[League Card]]s in {{g|Sword and Shield}}.
;Normal League Card
:"As a child, she was timid and a bit of a crybaby. However, she became more cheerful as she played with {{p|Morpeko|the Pokémon}} she received from [[Piers|her brother]], and her talents as a {{pkmn|Trainer}} also grew greatly. She joined the [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]] because she wishes to breathe life back into her dilapidated hometown, but she says she has been somewhat distracted by the boutiques throughout Galar. Though many in [[Spikemuth]] see her as a local celebrity, she herself has no interest in pursuing fame. However, she says she does appreciate the support of [[Team Yell]], her personal cheering squad."
;Rare League Card
:"She was appointed as the new [[Gym Leader]] of Spikemuth by her brother Piers. Piers caught Morpeko and gave it to her when she was five. She still finds herself at the mercy of Morpeko's {{a|Hunger Switch|mood swings}} even now. The local dialect of Spikemuth has a distinct kick to it, and many of Marnie's fans have started mimicking her. Marnie won't change her expression even when she gets angry, but once something sets her off, she stays angry for a long time."

===Pokémon===
Marnie keeps her Pokémon in [[Dusk Ball]]s.

==In the TCG==
[[File:MarnieSwordShield200.jpg|200px|thumb|Full Art print of Marnie]]
{{main|Marnie (Sword & Shield 169)}}
'''Marnie''' was introduced as a {{TCG|Supporter card}} in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] during the English Sword & Shield Series (the Japanese Sword & Shield Era). It was first released in the Japanese {{TCG|V Starter Sets}}. It later appeared in the Japanese {{TCG|Shield}} expansion before debuting in English in the {{TCG|Sword & Shield}} expansion, with artwork by [[kirisAki]]. It was also released as a {{TCG|Full Art card}} and {{TCG|Secret card}} in the same Japanese and English expansions, with artwork by the same artist. It allows both players to shuffle their hands to the bottom of their decks. If so, the card user draws five cards and their opponent draws four.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* Marnie's uniform number is "960", which can be read in Japanese as {{wp|Japanese wordplay#Goroawase|goroawase}} for 苦労 ''kurō'', meaning "hardship", or 黒 ''kuro'', meaning "black".
* Marnie is the only [[Gym Leader]] in {{pkmn|Sword and Shield}} who doesn't use the {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}} "Gym Leader" when battled at a [[Gym]].

'''Marnie''' (Japanese: '''マリィ''' ''Mary'') is one of the [[rival]] characters in [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], the others being [[Hop]] and [[Bede]], and [[Type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. She eventually replaces her older brother [[Piers]] as the [[Gym Leader]] of her [[hometown]] [[Spikemuth]]. As the Spikemuth Gym Leader, she gives the {{badge|Dark}} to Trainers who defeat her.

==In the games==
Marnie is one of the {{player}}'s [[rival]]s. She is a stoic, but well-mannered girl who wants to become {{pkmn|Champion}} to support her hometown, [[Spikemuth]]. Her [[starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]] is her {{p|Morpeko}}, who can be seen [[walking Pokémon|following her around]] outside of battle. She is constantly followed by her fan club, [[Team Yell]]. She can first be seen at [[Motostoke Stadium]] while the player and [[Hop]] register for the [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]]. The player first meets Marnie in the lobby of [[Motostoke]]'s Budew Drop Inn, where she scolds a group of {{tc|Team Yell Grunt}}s for causing trouble for the player, Hop, and other participants before introducing herself and apologizing on her behalf. After the player returns to Motostoke, the player has their first battle with her in the same lobby. The next day, Marnie will give them a copy of [[Kabu]]'s [[League Card]] and two [[Burn Heal]]s before seeing them off. The player later meets Marnie and Morpeko at [[Ballonlea Stadium]], where she learns her Morpeko has taken a liking to the player, and she gives them a copy of her League Card before officially acknowledging them as a rival.

Later, on the outskirts of Spikemuth on {{rt|9|Galar}}, Marnie will show the player an alternate way into town but insist on a battle before they can enter. After being defeated, Marnie gives them [[Piers]]'s League Card and leads them inside, claiming she'll get her revenge in the [[Galar League|Champion Cup]]. During their Spikemuth Gym Mission, the player will learn that Team Yell consists of the Gym's {{tc|Gym Trainer}}s, and that they blocked the main entrance to cut down on Marnie's competition. They also learn that the Gym Leader, Piers, is Marnie's older brother. After Piers is defeated, Marnie arrives to congratulate both her brother and her rival on the match and tells Piers she knows he plans to retire his title after the Champion Cup. Piers planned on offering the position to her, but Marnie refuses, telling him she can't be a Gym Leader if she becomes Champion. The player leaves Spikemuth while Marnie and Piers have their Gym Battle.

The player next meets Marnie as their first opponent in the semi-finals of the [[Wyndon Stadium]] Champion Cup. Marnie says she was expecting them, and that despite what they've been through together, she declares she's going to go all-out. Marnie is revealed to have a [[Dynamax Band]], unlike her brother, and uses it to [[Gigantamax]] the newest addition to her team, {{p|Grimmsnarl}}. After being defeated, Marnie thanks the player for the battle, saying that she enjoyed putting on a show for the crowd, but tells the player she hasn't yet decided who to root for just yet. After the semi-finals, the player and Hop meet Marnie, Piers, and Team Yell in front of the Rose of the Ronderlands hotel, who agree to help them look for [[Leon]]. While the player battles {{tc|Macro Cosmos's}} Eric, Marnie will lead Team Yell in cheering for the player, boosting their Pokémon's [[statistic|stats]]. As the player and the others reach [[Rose Tower]], Marnie and Piers will stay behind to hold off any other interlopers. Marnie later appears in the waiting room of Wyndon Stadium after Piers loses his match with [[Raihan]] in the Champion Cup finals, telling the player she'll be cheering for them.

After the player becomes Champion, they'll find Marnie in one of the rooms of the Budew Drop Inn, talking to her Morpeko. She attempts to practice smiling by pushing up the corners of her mouth, but when she is caught by the player, she runs off embarrassed. The player can then find her in Spikemuth, where she reveals she did take up Piers's offer, taking his place as Gym Leader. The player can train with her in a [[rematch]] here once daily. After being defeated for the first time, she will give the player a copy of her rare League Card. After obtaining this Card, they can encounter her in rematches in {{DL|Wyndon Stadium|Champion tournaments}} at [[Wyndon Stadium]], as well. Here, she will use the same team, only she will also Gigantamax her Grimmsnarl once more.

===League Cards===
This is a transcript of the back of Marnie's [[League Card]]s in {{g|Sword and Shield}}.
;Normal League Card
:"As a child, she was timid and a bit of a crybaby. However, she became more cheerful as she played with {{p|Morpeko|the Pokémon}} she received from [[Piers|her brother]], and her talents as a {{pkmn|Trainer}} also grew greatly. She joined the [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]] because she wishes to breathe life back into her dilapidated hometown, but she says she has been somewhat distracted by the boutiques throughout Galar. Though many in [[Spikemuth]] see her as a local celebrity, she herself has no interest in pursuing fame. However, she says she does appreciate the support of [[Team Yell]], her personal cheering squad."
;Rare League Card
:"She was appointed as the new [[Gym Leader]] of Spikemuth by her brother Piers. Piers caught Morpeko and gave it to her when she was five. She still finds herself at the mercy of Morpeko's {{a|Hunger Switch|mood swings}} even now. The local dialect of Spikemuth has a distinct kick to it, and many of Marnie's fans have started mimicking her. Marnie won't change her expression even when she gets angry, but once something sets her off, she stays angry for a long time."

===Pokémon===
Marnie keeps her Pokémon in [[Dusk Ball]]s.

'''Marnie''' was introduced as a {{TCG|Supporter card}} in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] during the English Sword & Shield Series (the Japanese Sword & Shield Era). It was first released in the Japanese {{TCG|V Starter Sets}}. It later appeared in the Japanese {{TCG|Shield}} expansion before debuting in English in the {{TCG|Sword & Shield}} expansion, with artwork by [[kirisAki]]. It was also released as a {{TCG|Full Art card}} and {{TCG|Secret card}} in the same Japanese and English expansions, with artwork by the same artist. It allows both players to shuffle their hands to the bottom of their decks. If so, the card user draws five cards and their opponent draws four.

==Trivia==
* Marnie's uniform number is "960", which can be read in Japanese as {{wp|Japanese wordplay#Goroawase|goroawase}} for 苦労 ''kurō'', meaning "hardship", or 黒 ''kuro'', meaning "black".
* Marnie is the only [[Gym Leader]] in {{pkmn|Sword and Shield}} who doesn't use the {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}} "Gym Leader" when battled at a [[Gym]].

'''Hop''' (Japanese: '''ホップ''' ''Hop'') is one of the [[rival]] characters in [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], the others being [[Bede]] and [[Marnie]].

==In the games==
Hop is the {{player}}'s neighbor and [[rival]]. His goal is to become the {{pkmn|Champion}}, just like his brother [[Leon]]. Hop starts his {{pkmn|journey}} with his [[starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]], {{p|Wooloo}}, and the [[starter Pokémon]] weak to the player's choice. After meeting a mysterious {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in the [[Slumbering Weald]] and receiving an [[endorsement]] from Leon, Hop and the player board the train to [[Motostoke]], and their respective journeys begin. While an outwardly earnest boy, Hop's dreams are cast into doubt after a crushing defeat at the hands of [[Bede]] soon after earning his {{badge|Fire}}, compounded by frequent losses to the player and the pressure of following in his brother's footsteps. Believing he is making his brother look weak, Hop begins using different teams to get stronger but still comes up short, losing his first challenge at [[Circhester Stadium]].

After the player wins at Circhester Stadium, Hop and the player learn more about the mysterious Pokémon of Slumbering Weald and their relationship to the hero. Motivated, Hop tells the player he has made up his mind and will no longer doubt himself, challenging them with his new, final team led by his newly-evolved {{p|Dubwool}}. Hop completes his Gym challenge and eventually meets the player as their second opponent in the Champion Cup in [[Wyndon Stadium]]. He is eventually defeated, and while visibly upset, Hop congratulates the player.

After the semifinals, Hop and the player search for Leon, who said he would be at the Rose of the Ronderlands hotel to join the two for dinner, but he did not show up. With the help of [[Piers]], [[Marnie]], and [[Team Yell]], the player and Hop pursue a member of [[Macro Cosmos]] to [[Rose Tower]], where they find Leon having a discussion with [[Chairman Rose]] at the top. Hop later appears to congratulate the player for clearing the final round of the Champion Cup, and after some encouragement by his starter Pokémon, he decides he is going to cheer for them over his brother. However, after Rose interrupts the Championship match, Hop suggests heading towards the Slumbering Weald to stop the return of {{p|Eternatus}} and the [[Darkest Day]].

In the deepest parts of the Weald, the player and Hop are unable to find the mysterious Pokémon they once saw, and instead, they discover a [[Rusted Sword]] and [[Rusted Shield]]. Hop takes the Shield{{sup/8|Sw}}/Sword{{sup/8|Sh}} and make way to the [[Energy Plant]] in [[Hammerlocke]]. After defeating Rose, the player and Hop join Leon, who tries and fails to catch Eternatus. After the player knocks it out, Eternatus turns into {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Eternatus|Eternamax}} Eternatus. Hop joins the player in a [[Max Raid Battle]] against it, but they are unable to do anything until they use the Rusted Sword and Shield to summon {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}}. Through the combined efforts of Hop and the {{pkmn2|Legendary}} heroes, the player can catch and stop Eternatus.

After becoming {{pkmn|Champion}}, the player meets Hop again in the Slumbering Weald where Zacian and Zamazenta once slept, saying he felt compelled to come there. After congratulating the player and having another battle, the player and Hop attempt to return the Rusted Sword and Shield, but are stopped by [[Sordward]] and [[Shielbert]], who attempt to steal the artifacts. The player successfully reclaims their artifact in a {{pkmn|battle}} with Sordward{{sup/8|Sw}}/Shielbert{{sup/8|Sh}}, but Hop is defeated by the other brother and loses his artifact. Feeling responsible, Hop quickly pursues the brothers, who are causing Trainers' Pokémon to [[Dynamax]] by force and run amok in [[Gym|Stadiums]]. While helping the Pokémon in Max Raid Battles with the player, Piers, and the other Gym Leaders, Hop expresses newfound doubts, thinking he is only dragging his friends down.

Hop and the player eventually corner the brothers at the Energy Plant, where they drive Zamazenta{{sup/8|Sw}}/Zacian{{sup/8|Sh}} into a berserk state by exposing it to Dynamax energy. The player defeats it in battle, and the Legendary Pokémon runs off after nearly attacking Hop, who was trying to help it. Hop goes after it, leaving Zacian{{sup/8|Sw}}/Zamazenta{{sup/8|Sh}} in the hands of the player, who is challenged by the other Legendary Pokémon. After the player catches Zacian{{sup/8|Sw}}/Zamazenta{{sup/8|Sh}}, they go back to the Slumbering Weald, where they see Hop soothing a distraught Zamazenta{{sup/8|Sw}}/Zacian{{sup/8|Sh}}. Thankful, the Legendary hero offers to join Hop's team. Hop then declares he has a new dream; to become a [[Pokémon Professor]] to help people as he did during the past incidents, but he also says that he will always see the player as a rival. With that, he and the player have one more battle, with Hop using his new Legendary partner. After the battle, [[Sonia]] offers Hop a position as her [[Professors' aides|assistant]] to help with his studies, which he accepts.

After the post-game story, Hop can be [[rematch]]ed as one of the challengers of the Champion Cup. This time, he uses a [[Gigantamax]] {{p|Corviknight}}. While not battling, he can be found in Sonia's laboratory at [[Wedgehurst]].

===League Cards===
This is a transcript of the back of Hop's [[League Card]]s in {{g|Sword and Shield}}.
;Normal League Card
:"This [[Pokémon Trainer]] got endorsed to take part in the [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]] by his brother—the reigning {{pkmn|Champion}}, [[Leon]]. Hop claims to have watched all Leon's matches. Commentators speculate that as a result, he might be quite the force to be reckoned with. The Champion himself has said that his brother has potential, but his carefully hoarded knowledge can go to waste as he tends to get easily flustered in battle. It's said that Hop's partner {{p|Wooloo}} is a great help to him both in battle and with chores around the house."
;Rare League Card
:"This Trainer ultimately was defeated in the final match of the Champion Cup Semifinals. However, many [[Gym Leader]]s speak highly of his battle style, where he will let his Pokémon battle freely and really enjoy themselves. During the incident with {{p|Eternatus}}, he provided vital assistance in resolving the situation, proving beyond doubt that he is a skilled Trainer in his own right. It is expected that his battles with {{player|the new Champion}} will be the stuff of legend."

{{incomplete|section}}
;[[Postwick]]
* At Player's House
:''"Hello, hello!"
:''"Oh! That your flash new phone, <player>?"
:''"Were you watching Lee's exhibition match on it? But you can't cheer him on with your hands full! You know the only way to properly cheer on Lee would be with his famous Charizard pose! "
:''"Yeah, that's exactly why I came running over to get <player>! Never mind watching the match now! I've got it recording at home anyway. I record all my brother's matches."
:''"Come with me, <player>! He should be here any minute! And Lee always brings presents when he visits, so I wouldn't forget that Bag if I were you!"
:''"Now I've got to run! See you at mine later!

* Outside of Player's House
:''"Hahaha! Have a look at you, <player>! That old Bag looks like it could pull you over! At least we know that it should hold anything Lee might bring, even if it's as big as a Snorlax!"
:''"A Wooloo... But what's it doing there?"
:''"Hey! You silly Wooloo! I see what you're up to! Don't go using Tackle on the fencing! Now, you listen! No going past that fence! No! Everyone knows there are scary Pokémon living in the Slumbering Weald!"
:''"Now that that's taken care of... How about it, <player>? Let's race! Bet I can make it to my house first, what with you lugging about that big old Bag!"

* Hop's House
:''"Mum! Is he here?!"
:''"Yeah, yeah, but where's Lee? Have you got him crammed in a cupboard?"
:''"Then that's where I'm going! You know Lee is hopeless with directions. I'll make sure he doesn't get lost on the way!"
:''"You've got the come with, <player>. You've still never met my big bro, right? You can't miss out on your chance to meet the undefeated Champion! I'll wait for you out on the route!"

* Outside
:''"Let's get a move on! Only remember, <player>... Wild Pokémon could come out of nowhere if you walk through patches of tall grass. I've got my Wooloo with me, so I'm ready for battles against wild Pokémon, of course. But not you, <player>! So we'll steer clear of the tall grass as we go."

;{{rt|1|Galar}}
:''"Let's go and meet Lee at the station! It's dead ahead from here!"
::'''If the player walks into the grass''' : ''"No wandering in that tall grass for you if you got no Pokémon of your own, mate!"

;[[Wedgehurst]]
:''"Lee!"
:''"Bingo! That's the sort of sharp eye that's kept you undefeated so long, eh, Lee?"
:''"Come on, Lee! And you, <player>!"
:''"Bet I can beat the both of you back home!"

;[[Postwick]]
* Leon giving the player and Hop their [[Starter Pokémon]]
:''"Come on, Lee! You promised us a present! So out with it! You brought <player> and me Pokémon. You did, didn't you? I know you must have!"
:''"Go on—you pick first. I've already got my Wooloo, after all."
::'''If the player tries to leave without choosing''' : ''"Where are you going, <player>?! You haven't chosen a Pokémon yet!"
::'''Grookey''' : ''"So it'll be Grookey for you? Nice one! Then I'll go with...Sobble! You're mine!"
::'''Scorbunny''' : ''"So it'll be Scorbunny for you? Nice one! Then I'll go with...Grookey! You're mine!"
::'''Sobble''' : ''"So it'll be Sobble for you? Nice one! Then I'll go with...Scorbunny! You're mine!"
:''"I'm aiming to be the next champion, so be ready! You and I'll be doing some serious training!"

* The next day
:''"Course I have, Lee! <player>'s made fast friends with his/her Grookey/Scorbunny/Sobble, too."
:''"What're you looking at him/her for, Lee? I'm the one who'll be coming to challenge you! If you think <player> might be able to challenge you, then I guess he's/she's my first rival! But I'm not planning to lose to him/her and miss out on my chance to beat the unbeatable Champion!"
:''"Just having a Pokémon with you doesn't make you a real Trainer, you know. Proper Trainers raise their Pokémon up to be first-rate in battle, too!"
::'''If the player said No to battling''' : ''"Me and Sobble/Grookey/Scorbunny are ready to have a go at you anytime!"
::'''If the player tries to leave without battling''' : ''"And where do you think you're off to, then? We're having a battle — you and me!"
::'''If the player said Yes to battling''' : ''"I've watched every match that Lee's ever had! I've read every book and magazine he left behind at home, too! I know exactly what to do in order to win!"

* In battle
:''"A Pokémon battle it is, then! I've got two partners with me!"
::'''After Wooloo faints''' : ''"It's not ever yet! I've added another trusty ally to my team!"
::'''After player lands a Super-Effective hit on Hop's starter''' : ''"Did you already know about type advantages!?"
::'''If the player hits a Critical Hit on either of Hop's Pokemon''': ''"A critical hit? What kind of beginner's luck is that?!"''
::'''If the player defeats Hop''' :''"You beat my two Pokémon with your one?! You and that Grookey/Scorbunny/Sobble are too much!"

* After battle
::'''If Hop defeated the player''' :''"Sorry, mate. Even if you did get your Pokémon direct from a champ like Lee, looks like I’m still the greatest!"
::'''If the Player defeated Hop''' :''"Well, that was a shock! Guess I know now why Lee thought he should give you a Pokémon, too..."
:''"I already want to get stronger and stronger! You've seen me battle now, Lee, so come on—— you've gotta let me take on the [[Pokémon Gyms]]!"
:''"Right, right, we get it... Pokédexes, then! We're on it! Looks likes it's off to the Pokémon Research Lab for you and me, <player>!"
:''"I'm going to be the next Champion, so completing a simple Pokédex will be nothing! Just another page in the tale of my legend! You'd probably better go tell your mum that we're heading out, though."
:''"<player>! Did you hear that just now?"
:''"The gate's open! And the Wooloo that was there..."
:''"It was tackling the fence pretty hard earlier. You don't think it actually broke through there, do you?"
:''"But it's off limits! Nobody's supposed to go in there! I remember the professor's granddaughter went in once, and she came back in a real state... And that was nothing compared to the earful she got from the professor afterward! <player>... What do you say?"
::'''We've got to save it!''' : ''"Right? Even if we're not supposed to, this is the kind of scene where you simply have to do what's needed!"
::'''I don't know...''' : ''"Right... No one wants to get in trouble, least of all me. But deep down you want to save that Pokémon, too, don’t you?"
:''"Hope you're ready for anything, because we're going in, <player>!"
::'''If the player tries to leave''' : ''"The Slumbering Weald is over this way! Let’s go find that Wooloo!"
::'''If talked to again''' : ''"Come on, <player>! We can't just leave that Pokémon on its own!"

;[[Slumbering Weald]]
:''"That Wooloo… Where do you think it got off to?"
:''"The fog is really coming on thick now... If we don't find that Pokémon soon, this might be trouble."
::'''If the player tries to leave''' : ''"Be serious, would you? We’ve got to go look for that Pokémon!"
:''"Doing all right there, Grooky/Scorbunny/Sobble? Let's be sure you're in tip-top shape."
:''"There. Now let's push on!"
:''"Did you hear that? Was that a Pokémon crying out, you think?!"
:''"Come on, <player>! That Wooloo might be in real trouble!"
::'''If the player tries to leave''' :''"Hey! <player>! Not trying to ditch me in here, are you?"
:''"This is mad... I can't even see my own hand in front of my face! I think I get now why this place is off-limits..."
:''"What in the——?!"

* In battle
::'''After attacking''' : ''"Wha—?! The move had no effect on it?!
::'''After attacking again''' : ''"<player>! I can't see anything! You OK?!"
::'''After attacking a third time''' :''"I can’t see anything!"
:''"Uwaaaaaah!"

*After battle
:''"Wha—? Lee? How’d you manage to find your way here? You’re pants with directions. You always get lost."
:''"Wait, where’s the Wooloo?! We were trying to rescue that Wooloo!"
:''"And at least that Wooloo’s all right… Yeah, Name? I thought we’d had it when that weird fog started rolling in and that mad Pokémon attacked… but at least it wasn’t all for nothing!"
:''"It seemed loads stronger than any Pokémon I’ve ever seen. And it just had this sort of presence… Our moves didn’t even touch it. I mean, really— they seemed to pass right through it!"
:''"Even if we did get an earful from Lee…what an experience! This’ll make a pretty fine first page in the tale of my legend!"

;[[Postwick]]
*Outside of Player's House
:''"Don’t forget to tell your mum we’re off to Wedgehurst now. She’ll go spare if you leave without a word—even worse than Lee just did!"
::'''If the player tries to leave''' : ''"You did tell your mum that we’re heading to Wedgehurst, right? She’ll go spare if you disappear without a word."

;{{rt|1|Galar}}
:''"Here we go! This is quite the big step, you know. My first step toward becoming the next Champion!"
:''"Guess I’ll probably train up Sobble/Grooky/Scorbunny a bit by having it battle against Pokémon in the tall grass."
:''"You should get yourself to the building with the purple roof and the great red and white ball mark out on front. That’s the Pokémon research Lab!"

;[[Wedgehurst]]
* After getting the Pokédex
:''"Got your Pokédex from Sonia? Then it’s time to meet lots of different Pokémon and start building up a strong team! But battling strong Pokémon in the wild can leave your team in a bad way. Not to mention what battling another Trainer can do… Luckily, we’ve got Pokémon Centers!"
:''"Luckier yet, they’re dead easy to spot. They look the same wherever you go."
:''"Come on, <player>. Bet you’ve never been inside one!"

* Pokémon Center
:''"Level with me, <player>. Is this your first time in a Pokémon Center?
::'''Yes...''' :''"Then the future Champion’s got you covered! First things first—you talk to the lady at the counter if you want your Pokémon healed up. And Pokémon you catch are kept in computers like the one you can find here, see? After all, you can only bring six Pokémon with you on the road in your party. The Potions they sell at the Poké Mart got me out of a real rough spot the other day!"
::'''Of course not''' :''"Then I don’t think you need me to tell you what you already know."
:''"Cheers! I’m already good, though. I’m heading to Route 2, <player>! Come find me, maybe, when you’re done here!"

* Outside
:''"Listen, <player>. I’ve been thinking... If you’re a Pokémon Trainer now, you must want to try your hand at the Gym Challenge, right?"
::'''The Gym Challenge?/What's that?''' :''"The Gym Challenge, mate! The annual competition where Trainers can battle it out for the right to challenge the Champion! But the trick is that you’ve got to be endorsed if you want to take part. And Lee doesn’t seem to think I’m up to snuff… So I’m thinking I ought to talk to the professor and see if she could help! You’ve got to take part, too! A proper rival is just the thing every Trainer needs to keep growing stronger, after all. Keeps you motivated, right? The professor’s house is way down at the end of Route 2, so let’s head there…and give our teams the chance to train up a bit along the way!"

;{{rt|2|Galar}}
:''"Over here, <player>!"
:''"All right, <player>? It’s time we filled in out teams a bit—"
:''"Lee?! Where’d you come from?"

* After the catching tutorial
:''"Typical Lee!"
:''"The Pokémon on your team will get Exp. Points when you catch Pokémon, too."
:''"All right! I’m gonna catch loads of Pokémon. The professor will be shocked when she sees!"

* Outside Magnolia's House
:''"Look! There’s the professor!"

* Magnolia's House
:''"Hey, Professor, do us a favor, would you? Help me convince Lee he should endorse us for the Gym Challenge!"
:''"Right! I’ll be waiting outside, <player>!"

* Outside
:''"Hurry it up, <player>! You’ve gotta battle me so I can get myself that endorsement!"
::'''if the player tries to leave''' :''"Hurry it up, <player>! You’ve gotta battle me so I can get myself that endorsement!"
:''"I’m going to become the greatest Pokémon Trainer there is! And to do that, I need that endorsement to take part in the Gym Challenge! Come at me with everything you have so we can prove to Lee that we’ve got what it takes!"
::'''Of course''' :''"It’s time for my legend to begin!"
::'''I need to prepare''' :''"Oh, fine... Guess I can wait a bit."

* In battle
:''"Have you gotten a bit stronger? Me and my team will put you to the test and see!"
::'''After player lands a Super-Effective hit''' :''"Well, look at you! Seems you’ve really learned your type matchups!"
::'''After player lands a Critical Hit''' :''"You landed a critical hit on my Pokémon?! You’ve got plenty of spirit—that’s for sure!"
::'''When Hop sends out his last Pokémon''' :''"It’ll be a close one! But that’s exactly my sort of match!"
::'''When Hop uses his starter's same-type move''' :''"Have a taste of our true power!"
:::'''[[Branch Poke]]''' :''"Our green power just keeps on growing stronger!"
:::'''[[Water Gun]]''' :''"This wave is gonna crash right over you!"
:::'''[[Ember]]''' :''"Our flames are burning bright!"
::'''If the player defeats Hop''' :''"Oof! Gutted that I lost… But I’d expect nothing less from my rival!"

* After battle
::'''If Hop defeated the player for the second time''' :''"Undefeated! And my Pokémon’s moves were seriously on point!"
::'''If Hop defeated the player for the first time''' :''"Hah! See that! I knew I could do it. Am I ever glad I could beat you this time!"
::'''If the player defeated Hop for the second time''' :''"And I even got my Poké Ball throw perfect, too!"
::'''If the player defeated Hop for the first time''' :''"This was you getting back at me for last time, wasn’t it? Argh! I’m gutted to lose to you of all people!"
:''"The sting of defeat and joy of victory... I guess going through both is the key to the two of us getting stronger, right?"
:''"Yes! Thanks, Lee! I swear I’m going to win my way through the Gym Challenge to reach you!"
:''"All right, <player>! You and me are going to train up against one another to aim for that Champion’s title!"
::'''Absolutely!''' :''"The more we keep battling against one another, the more our Pokémon will grow."
::'''Against one another?''' :''"That’s the way of it when you’ve got a great rival! Just like you’ve got me, and I’ve got you!"
:''"Huh? What’s that?!"
:''"<player>! Would you look at this? They’re Wishing Stars! Since there are two of them, you should take one yourself!"
:''"With one of those, my Pokémon can Dynamax! They’re gonna be massive! YES!"
:''"I will be the greatest Trainer ever! I WILL be the greatest Trainer ever! I WILL BE THE GREATEST TRAINER EVER!!! There! I’ve said it three times, so surely my wish will come true now, right?"
:''"Ah, right. You’ve done heaps of research on the Dynamax phenomenon, haven’t you, Professor? Then please! Give <player> and me the power to Dynamax our Pokémon!"
:''"First we got to battle against that mad Pokémon in the Slumbering Weald, and now this... It really feels like we’re getting caught up in the adventure of a lifetime!"

* The next morning, inside Magnolia's House
:''"It’s morning at last! And time for our adventure to truly start!"
:''"Er, well, there was weird heavy fog, and then this even weirder Pokémon appeared... <player> tried to fight it off! But then I think we both passed out or something. It’s all pretty hazy."
:''"Thanks, Professor! This is brilliant! It’s just like the one Lee has on him, too. Now we can Dynamax our Pokémon like he does!"
:''"The legend of my reign is finally about to begin!"
:''"Come on, <player>! I’ll beat you to the station!"

* Outside
:''"One last thing before we race, <player>. See, I’ve got some great advice for you!"
:''"You know how you sometimes see Pokémon wandering about out of the tall grass, yeah?"
:''"If you move real slow like, and crouch down, those Pokémon won’t pay you any notice."
:''"But on the other hand... If you whistle at them, you’ll be SURE to catch their attention!"
:''"If you’re a bit rubbish as whistling, just remember this: "Need a fail-proof trick? Press the Left Stick!""
:''"Try it out, and let’s see who can catch the most Pokémon, <player>!"
:''"You remember Wedgehurst Station, right? Where we went to pick up Lee before. That’ll be the goal, so see you there!"

;[[Wedgehurst]]
:''"Come on, <player>! You’ll never beat me to the station at that pace!"
:''"So, out with it, <player>! How many did you catch? I caught a really special one!"
::'''If the player did not catch any Pokémon''' :''"And you got... Not one?! What were you doing this whole time? You’re going to want a team if you’re a Trainer!"
::'''If the player caught one Pokémon''' :''"And you’ve got yourself... Ooh, just one! Looks like we’re at a draw. Though we are rivals and all, so that’s fair!"
::'''If the player caught multiple Pokémon''' :''"But look at how many you caught! You’re well on your way to building a fine team."
:''"That’s a technical machine! A TM, mate! With a TM like that, you can teach your Pokémon a new move in a flash. And you can use them again and again, too. That one can teach the move Swift. Lee gave it to me ages ago, and now it’s yours."
:''"The Gym Challenge will begin in Motostoke! And our train’s waiting, so let’s go!"

* Train Station
:''"What’re you doing here, Mum?"
:''"Thanks, Mum. And just think how lucky you are—mother to the first ever pair of Champion brothers! Because I’m certain to be the Champion next. You’ll see!"
:''"Wish us luck! Not that we’ll need it."
:''"There are loads of brilliant Trainers and all kinds of Pokémon out there waiting for us! My excitement’s running ahead of me even faster than that train can go, Name! Come on! We’re off!"

* On the Train
:''"Motostoke is surrounded by a vast Wild Area! It’s a real sight. There’re all sorts of wild Pokémon just wandering about—everywhere you look! Plus, you can camp out, do a spot of fishing... I don’t think I could ever get tired of it!"

;[[Meetup Spot]]
* Inside Station
:''"Hey, Mr. Station Master! Isn’t this the Wild Area? What’re we stopped here for?"
:''"What’s there to be sorry about? This is brilliant!"
::'''Brilliant?/What is?''' :''"This Wild Area is massive! There are loads of Pokémon to battle here! You get it, don’t you, <player>? This is the best possible place to put together the greatest team!"

* Outside
:''"Look at that!"
:''"That’s Motostoke, way off that way!"
:''"And between there and here are countless new Pokémon waiting to be met!"
:''"Oh, hello. And if it isn’t Sonia."
:''"Yikes... Being an adult has got its own challengers, eh?"
:''"Well, I’m off to go stick my head in as many of those red glowing dens as I can find. I’m going to battle the snot out of a bunch of Dynamax Pokémon and fill in another page in the tale of my legend!"

;[[Motostoke]]
* Outside
:''"You made it, too?"
:''"Motostoke Stadium... This is where the opening ceremony will be held."
:''"Everyone’ll be watching the opening ceremony for the Gym Challenge... My mum... Your mum... The whole world!"
:''"It’s getting me a bit nervous, really... Naw, this isn’t nerves... I’m only trembling because I’m so excited!"
:''"Come on, <player>! It’s time the world learned our names!"

* [[Motostoke Stadium]]
:''"Would you take a look at this... The place is packed with Gym Challengers! Every one of these folks is another rival!"
:''"Let’s get signed up!"
:''"Seriously? What a piece of work..."
:''"Well, now you’ve had two, because I am as well!"
:''"I’m Hop! I’m Leon’s little brother, in fact. And the next Champion. Get me all signed up, would you?"
:''"That’s the League Chairman for you! Even booked us all hotel rooms! I’m off to check out the fancy digs!"

* Budew Drop Inn
:''"Oh hey, Sonia! What’re you doing at our hotel?"
:''"What’s this, then?"
:''"Huh... I suppose that hero must’ve been about as strong as Lee, then! Looks like you’re going to have your hands full with plenty to research, though, Sonia. Black storms and swords and shields and all..."
:''"Probably so! And we’ll look out for you, too, Sonia. If we hear anything about any hero or whatnot, we’ll tell you!"
:''"I wasn’t expecting checking in would be such a big fuss, <player>! What’s going on? Sneaking in some Pokémon battles without me?"
:''"Don’t think you can get ahead of me that easily... I need to get some training in, so I’m joining! Here, I’ll even heal up your Pokémon, too."
:''"I’m Hop, one of this year’s Gym Challengers! And the one who’s gonna be the next Champion! Now let’s have us a nice two-on-two!"
:''"So you’re a Gym Challenger, too? Team Yell, was it? Pretty impressive that you already have a set of fans to call your own!"
::'''If talked to at any point''' :''"I guess we probably should head to the front desk to get checked in."
* The next morning
:''"Morning!"
:''"So this is it... Now my legend really begins!"
:''"Watch out, <player>! I’ll beat you to Motostoke Stadium!"

* [[Motostoke Stadium]]
:''"I can’t wait for the first match! Pretty soon I’ll have so man fans, I’ll have to fight 'em off like Lee does!"
:''"Standing there on the pitch...in the stadium...in front of everyone! There’s really no words for it, but... I can barely contain myself! My heart’s racing!"

::'''All right!''' :''"I knew you’d be up for it! We’ve got to stay keener than anyone else if we want to steal the spotlight from our rivals!"
::'''But why?''' :''"Seriously? This is the moment when you play along and act pumped up for battle! If you’ve gotta ask why we should bother training, you’ll never make it through the Gym Challenge!"

* After Battle
:''"Just what I’d expect from my rival! You know what? I’ll even give you one of my League Cards! That’s how good I think you did in that battle."
:''"Our Gym Challenge starts right now—from here in Motostoke! Although the first Gym Leader we’ll have to challenge is in a town way far off from here... Still, you’d better believe I’m going to keep on winning my way to that Championship Match!"
:''"Hello, Galar! Meet your next Champion! From the sleepy town of Postwick—it’s me, Hop!"

;[[Turffield]]
:''"Look! Just take a look at that, <player>! That’s Turffield Stadium down there!"
:''"The Gym Leader just returned, too. Milo’s his name. But the place is jam-packed with challengers. It’ll be ages before our turn comes up..."
:''"Oh... But Sonia was looking for you, <player>. She wanted to ask you something. She tried asking me, but I had no idea. She’s up on that what’s-her-face hill. You know the one."
:''"What? You don’t know the hill? Well, have a look at your map if you’re not sure!"
:''"Oh! If it isn’t Sonia’s Yamper! He’s a good boy. He’ll show you the way!"

:''"I reckon I’m just about the greatest when it comes to wrangling Wooloo... I’ve had plenty of practice at it, after all!"

;{{rt|5|Galar}}
:''"There you are, <player>!"
:''"I’m warning you, though... Any closer than that and we’re going to have to have a battle—you and me!"

;[[Hulbury]]
:''"All right, mate! You’ve got both the Grass Badge and the Water Badge by now, right? In that case, we’re both headed for Motostoke and the Fire Gym Leader, Kabu! How about I share with you a little tip about that Leader Kabu? From what I heard, he’s holed up now in Galar Mine No. 2, undergoing some special training! If he’s in there, then we can’t take him on in Motostoke even if we zip right over there—putting the brakes on our Gym Challenge. So I say we head to Galar Mine No. 2 ourselves! Let’s go see what all the fuss is about!"

;[[Galar Mine No. 2]]
:''"Well, look at you, <player>!"
:''"Surrounded by adoring fans, eh? You’ll even be showing up Lee pretty soon!"
:''"Yeah? And can’t you see that I’m Hop, the Trainer who’ll be your next Champion?"
:''"You think I’m joking? I’ll prove it, then! And I think a battle with you lot would definitely end with some laughs!"
:''"Let’s take ’em together, <player>! You ready, mate?"
::'''Yes''' :''"The two of us were endorsed by the Champion himself! We’ll show you just what that means!"
::'''No''' :''"Got it! Then get yourself all ready for a good battle!"
:''"Nice one, <player>! That’s my rival for you!"
:''"Now then... Where could Kabu have gone off to? Let’s keep going. Maybe he’s further in!"
:''"That’s Kabu... Man, he’s wicked! No wonder he’s the Fire-type Gym Leader!"
:''"I remember Lee talking about Kabu. He said that a lot of Gym Challengers give up because they just can’t beat Kabu."
:''"Man, now I’m getting all fired up, too!"

;[[Motostoke Outskirts]]
:''"That Carkol from before... I guess it must’ve been here on a job. You do know about Poké Jobs by now, right?"
::'''I do''' :''"Course you do!"
::'''Poké what?''' :''"Looks like there’s no helping it, in that case... Settle down and let professor Hop teach you a thing or two! Let’s see if I can remember what Lee had written down in his old notebooks... Basically, you can have your Pokémon go about and help companies or other folks who are in need of something. You can take Poké Jobs from the Rotomi at any Pokémon Center, so give it a look sometime."
:''"Now I’m cream-cracked! I’m for the Budew Drop Inn and some sleep. Come tomorrow, that Fire Gym Leader Kabu better be ready, because I’ll be coming for him!"

;[[Motostoke]]
* Outside
:''"Slow moving, aren’t you, <player>?"
:''"I’ve already gone and earned my Fire Badge! That man of fire Kabu is just what you’d expect. Nearly got burnt in my battle with him! Even with my strongest team, it was definitely touch-and-go...but I still won in the end!"
:''"Get a shift on, <player>! I bet you could beat the man of fire, too!"

* [[Motostoke Stadium]]
:''"Hey, <player>! I was on fire in my battle against Kabu!"
:''"<player>! I figured that if anyone could do it, you and <Pokémon> would be the ones...but still! That match had me right at the edge of my seat!"
:''"With all the Badges we’ve earned ourselves, I reckon we should be all right even against the fierce Pokémon you find deep in the Wild Area. Let’s go find out for ourselves!"

* Outside
:''"Hurry it up, <player>!"
:''"Huh?"
:''"You’re the Gym Leader, but you still came all the way to see us off? Oh, I bet you can already tell that I’m the one who’ll become the next Champion, yeah?"
:''"Thanks, you all! We’re gonna keep winning! We’ve got to if we want to face-off in the Champion Cup, after all!"
:''"Come on, <player>! Let’s head for Hammerlocke!"

;[[East Lake Axewell]]
:''"Hello again, Wild Area, my old friend! I’ve come back to you even stronger than before!"
:''"<player>! Hammerlocke is up that way—got it?"
:''"And, yeah, you could certainly rush straight there without a single detour..."
:''"but now that you and I have a few Gym Badges, we should be able to catch stronger Pokémon!"
:''"So I know what I’m doing. I’ll be catching myself some amazing Pokémon to fill in the next page in the tale of my legend!"
:''"Rubbish. More like you don’t know enough to recognize greatness when you see it. My throws are the greatest, and my bro is the finest Champion the world has ever seen! I’m not gonna listen to you insulting him!"
:''"You’re on then. I know you challenged <player> to battle in Galar Mine No. 2 and lost to him/her there. And I’m his/her greatest rival. In other words...there’s no way you’re beating me."
:''"I’ll show this wally my real skills in battle! So, see you later, <player>! Let’s meet up in Hammerlocke when I’m through with him!"

;{{rt|6|Galar}}
:''"Oh, hey, <player>. You’re heading to Stow-on-Side, right?"
:''"Oi, Team Yell. Don’t suppose you’ll let us through?"
:''"Right..."
:''"What do you say, <player>? If we don’t get past them, we won’t be able to continue our Gym Challenge at Stow-on-Side..."
::'''I'll battle them!''' :''"You... Yeah, that’s the spirit!"
::'''Let me think...''' :''"I don’t figure thinking at them is going to change much about the situation. What else you got?"
:''"Think I’ll leave this to you, <player>. Keep up the pace."
:''"<player>... You and <Pokémon> were brilliant together!"
:''"See, Bede really wiped the floor with me the last time we battled... And don’t get me wrong—I can take a loss! Battling means you’ve got to lose sometimes."
:''"But he said that I was dragging Lee’s good name through the mud, being so rubbish like I was... And I just can’t get those words out of my head!"
:''"If I’m weak, then people’ll think Lee’s weak, too... But I don’t want that! I can’t let Lee get dragged down! He’s the unbeatable Champion! I’m gonna have to take some time figuring this out. See you around, <player>..."

;[[Stow-on-Side]]
:''"<player>..."
:''"I’m still not too sure what I should do about all that stuff I told you before... About me being weak and dragging down Lee’s good name and all, yeah?"
:''"But the only think I can do is get stronger, right? So I’m gonna try out all kinds of different things against you and see what works!"
::'''You're on!''' :''"Then let’s do this! I bet an all-out battle with my true rival will help me get my head on straight!"
::'''Wait a second...''' :''"What? Your rival is depressed over here, and you won’t lift a finger to help?"

:''"Hrmmm... I tried switching my team members in and out to max out their potential in every matchup, but... We just couldn’t get it together somehow... Maybe that’s why I’m still so weak..."
:''"But Lee really is the greatest Trainer! And I don’t want people to be laughing at him all because his little brother is rubbish!"
:''"It’s not enough! I’ve got to try harder! And harder and harder till no one’s laughing! I’m off, mate! Off to find the kind of Pokémon that I can really draw the strength out of!"

;[[Hammerlocke]]
:''"Oh! <player>!
:''"First that forest, then that mad quiz... I’ve been lost in every sense of the word! But it looks like I’ve finally caught up to you again."
:''"Come with me to Route 7! I could use a bit of competition to motivate me!"

;{{rt|7|Galar}}
:''"All right, <player>! You and I both know I’ve got to keep on trying different strategies if I’m gonna get strong enough to catch up to Lee... No! Not just catch up! If I want to surpass him!"

* In Battle

::'''When the player uses a super-effective move''' :''"The way you battle… You know, it kind of reminds me of Lee!"
::'''When Hop uses a super-effective move''' :''"How’d you like that attack?! Now I really feel like we’re getting somewhere!"

:''"Before we ever started out on this journey... I remember watching Lee on the telly. He was like a bright star, so strong I could hardly bear to look right at him. But now, I can tell just how strong he really is... And what he’s got that I haven’t..."
:''"But I’m getting stronger, too. Maybe not as fast as you, but fine. Whatever! Thanks for letting me battle you again. And here. I’ll heal up your team for you, too!"
:''"I think I know what it is I really want... I want to battle Lee—I want to take on my bro. But not just that, I want to beat him! I want to be the one who beats the unbeatable Champion! And I’m going to! My mind’s made up! You and me are going to have another battle once I get my Gym Badge in Circhester!"

* [[Circhester Stadium]]
:''"Arghhh! I lost! It all went to pot!"
:''"There must’ve been something wrong with my strategy, but I did just what I’ve seen Lee do in battles! Here! Take it! It’s the Rock{{sup/8|Sw}}/Ice{{sup/8|Sh}} Leader’s League Card. You should check out the Gym Leader you’ll have to face, too."
:''"And me... I’ve gotta figure out what to put on my team once and for all, and no more of this doubting!"

* Bob’s Your Uncle
:''"Got that Gym Badge, <player>? Nice one!"
:''"Based on those statues we saw back in Stow-on-Side, the sword and the shield were actually two Pokémon, right?"
:''"You remember the Pokémon we met that day? Do you think...it could’ve been one of them? Either the sword or the shield Pokémon?"
:''"Come on! You know what I’m talking about, right, <player>?"

===In Pokémon: Twilight Wings===
Hop made a cameo appearance in ''[[TW01|Letter]]'', where he tied a friendship bracelet to the right foreleg of his {{p|Wooloo}}. He briefly reappeared in ''[[TW02|Training]]'', where he and his Wooloo were watching television.

Hop then appeared more prominently in ''[[TW03|Buddy]]'', where he was revealed to be watching television with Wooloo so he could study [[Leon]]'s technique and figure out how to become stronger. However, his admiration of Leon's {{p|Charizard}} caused Wooloo to run away. This prompted Hop to desperately search around town for it. By the end of the episode, Hop was reunited with Wooloo, whereupon he promised it that they will both challenge the Pokémon League together, and assured that it was perfect the way it was.

Wooloo then appeared prominently in ''[[TW03|Buddy]]'', where it became jealous of Hop's admiration of [[Leon]]'s {{p|Charizard}} and ran away from home. It eventually jumped off a cliff to try and fly like Charizard, only to fail. Wooloo was subsequently found by [[Milo]], who sent Wooloo home on the [[Flying Taxi]]. It reunited with Hop, who promised it that they will both challenge the [[Pokémon League]] together, and assured that it was perfect the way it was.

==In the TCG==
[[File:HopSPromo5.jpg|200px|thumb|Full Art print of Hop]]
{{main|Hop (Sword & Shield 165)}}
'''Hop''' was introduced as a {{TCG|Supporter card}} in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] during the English Sword & Shield Series (the Japanese Sword & Shield Era). It was first released in the Japanese {{TCG|V Starter Sets}} before debuting in English in the {{TCG|Sword & Shield}} expansion, with artwork by [[Ken Sugimori]]. It allows the player to draw three cards, the same effect as cards of previous rivals.

==Trivia==
* Hop's uniform number is "189", which can be read in Japanese as {{wp|Japanese wordplay#Goroawase|goroawase}} for 飛躍 ''hiyaku'', meaning "leaping".
* Hop is the only rival in {{pkmn|Sword and Shield}} not to become a [[Gym Leader]] by the end of the games.

Mr.GodzillaMan:

== Erika ==

Um, no. It's Erika, not Erica. Who the heck made this page, and why haven't they played the games? {{unsigned|Transfinite}}

We all know that her name is EriKa. The origin of the choice of her name could derive from the name of a plant (heath) that in German is called "Erika" and in Italian is called "Erica". Anyway, don't get angry! If you have a better suggestion write it! {{unsigned|Siegfried}}

Is there a reason that the talk is found at [[Talk:Erica]], while the article is at [[Erika]]? [[Talk:Erika]] is a redirect to the C spelling... This should be fixed, for consistancy's sake, but it'd require the ability to delete pages (in order to preserve the history. You delete the K spelling redirect, move the C spelling to the K spelling, and there you go). --[[User:DarkfireTaimatsu|DarkfireTaimatsu]] 18:38, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

:Don't worry, I fixed it. I have no idea why that happened to begin with, but thank you for catching that error. And it actually didn't require any deleting pages. It just moved it over a redirect. --[[User:PAK Man|PAK Man]] [[User talk:PAK Man|Talk]] 19:13, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

== Bellossom ==

I know this may seem minor, but Bellossom has a jumpluff picture. {{unsigned|09MurphyM}}

== TM ==

I searched through it, and it seems to me Erika is the only Kanto Gym leader in G/S that gives a TM.
That seems strange to me, so I was wondering if that was true. Is it? Or is there some missing info or mistake? {{unsigned|M190049}}

No, I vividly remember Janine gave out TM 06 (Toxic), although She and Erika were the only Kanto Gym Leaders that did in G/S/C. [[User:FireplaceMan|FireplaceMan]] 08:35, 6 July 2009

Why is [[Gloom]] a disambiguation page that links to Erika's Gloom. Should it be a page? Was it a page and then deemed not notable? Has it always been a redirect? ----[[User:Zewis29|Zewis]] [[User talk:Zewis29|(2]][[Special:Contributions/Zewis29|9)]] 01:35, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
:Erika's Gloom formerly had an article, but it got merged into this page. The disambiguation page, Gloom, has been turned into a redirect. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 07:39, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

== R/B/Y sprite ==

Are you absolutely sure that her R/B/Y sprite was colored? Because I'm pretty sure that the proper sprite doesn't have any color at all except for black and white. {{unsigned|LoadOfMentos}}

:The sprites in RB, when played on a GB are monochrome. But when played on a GBC it adds a single colour over one of the greys, making it a kind of two colour sprite. Yellow, designed for the GBC, has slightly more colours. Since the GB itself has a monochrome display, the sprites will always be black and white when played on one. <sc>[[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]]</sc> [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 22:23, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

== Chlorophyll ==

Should it be noted that every pokemon Erika uses has the same ability, Chlorophyll. No other gym leader in the series has this same trait. --[[User:Darkcloud1111|Darkcloud1111]] 02:53, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

== In the TCG section ==

Is there any particular reason her "In the TCG" section has such a long intro? I don't mind it, but I've never seen such a thing on other Gym Leader pages. [[User:Brock Kent|Brock Kent]] ([[User talk:Brock Kent|talk]]) 01:26, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

== Interesting fact that need to be discused ==

Mr.GodzillaMan:

== Erika ==

Um, no. It's Erika, not Erica. Who the heck made this page, and why haven't they played the games? {{unsigned|Transfinite}}

We all know that her name is EriKa. The origin of the choice of her name could derive from the name of a plant (heath) that in German is called "Erika" and in Italian is called "Erica". Anyway, don't get angry! If you have a better suggestion write it! {{unsigned|Siegfried}}

Is there a reason that the talk is found at [[Talk:Erica]], while the article is at [[Erika]]? [[Talk:Erika]] is a redirect to the C spelling... This should be fixed, for consistancy's sake, but it'd require the ability to delete pages (in order to preserve the history. You delete the K spelling redirect, move the C spelling to the K spelling, and there you go). --[[User:DarkfireTaimatsu|DarkfireTaimatsu]] 18:38, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

:Don't worry, I fixed it. I have no idea why that happened to begin with, but thank you for catching that error. And it actually didn't require any deleting pages. It just moved it over a redirect. --[[User:PAK Man|PAK Man]] [[User talk:PAK Man|Talk]] 19:13, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

'''Brock''' (Japanese: '''タケシ''' ''Takeshi'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Pewter City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Pewter Gym]]. He gives the {{Badge|Boulder}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat him in {{pkmn|battle}}. He [[Type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Rock}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

==In the games==
Brock appears in {{game5|Red|Blue|Yellow|FireRed|LeafGreen}} as the [[Gym Leader]] of the [[Pewter Gym]], which is the first [[Gym]] that the {{player}} challenges on their {{pkmn|journey}}. He is one of the few truly serious professional [[Pokémon Trainer]]s in the [[Pewter City]] area, and many people respect and admire him. He is quite proud of his rock-hard willpower, and uses {{type|Rock}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} to complement this. He rarely laughs or drops his serious demeanor, but when he does, he finds it hard to stop. In his free time, he likes to dig for [[Fossil]]s in [[Mt. Moon]]. In addition to the {{badge|Boulder}}, Brock gives out {{TM|34|Bide}} in Red, Blue, and Yellow, {{TM|39|Rock Tomb}} in FireRed and LeafGreen, and {{TM|01|Headbutt}} in Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!.

In Yellow, Brock mentions that he is training to become a {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}}, despite {{pkmn|breeding}} not being present in the game. This is a reference to the goals of his {{an|Brock|anime counterpart}}.

Three years later, in {{game5|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Brock remains the Gym Leader of the Pewter Gym, which can be challenged at any point during the player's travels through [[Kanto]]. He is surprised to hear that the player is from the [[Johto]] [[region]], and happily accepts their challenge. While he doesn't give out a TM in Gold, Silver, and Crystal, he gives out {{TM|80|Rock Slide}} in HeartGold and SoulSilver.

In HeartGold and SoulSilver, after all 16 [[Badge]]s have been obtained, Brock can be found in [[Diglett's Cave]] near Pewter City on any day between noon and 3 PM, and will offer his [[Pokégear]] number if spoken to. If he is called on [[Days of the week|Saturday]] [[Time|night]]s, he will be up for a [[rematch]] at the [[Fighting Dojo]] in [[Saffron City]]. After his Pokégear number has been obtained, he will reappear in Diglett's Cave every day between 5 PM and 8 PM, and the player can have a [[photography|photograph]] taken with him there. If he is spoken to in Diglett's Cave on a Saturday, he will offer to [[trade]] a {{p|Rhyhorn}} that knows {{m|Thunder Fang}} for a {{p|Bonsly}}.

In {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, Brock appears alongside the other Gym Leaders of [[Kanto]] as an opponent in the [[Kanto Leaders Tournament]] at the [[Pokémon World Tournament]]. He also participates alongside the Gym Leaders of Kanto, [[Johto]], [[Hoenn]], [[Sinnoh]] and [[Unova]] in the [[World Leaders Tournament]], and other Rock-type experts in the Rock [[Type Expert Tournament]].

In Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, it is revealed that he obsessed with girls.

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
[[File:Brock anime SM.png|thumb|250px|Brock in the {{series|Sun & Moon}}]]
{{main|Brock (anime)}}
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, like later Gym Leaders, Brock appeared primarily as an opponent to [[Ash Ketchum]] in his [[EP005|debut episode]]; unlike later Gym Leaders, he requested to join Ash on his {{pkmn|journey}}, aiming to be the world's greatest {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}}. In doing so, Brock left the Gym in the hands of his father, {{ka|Flint}}, who had finally revealed himself to have returned from his journey. Brock advised Ash throughout the [[Kanto]] [[region]], then left briefly during the [[Orange Archipelago]] arc to assist [[Professor Ivy]]. He returned to Ash's side in [[Johto]], and with brief returns to [[Pewter City]] at the end of each series, joined him for his journeys in [[Hoenn]] and [[Sinnoh]] as well; however, he now wants to become a Pokémon Doctor.

Brock mainly provides an advisory role to the other main characters of the anime, being several years older than the rest of them. His knowledge of Pokémon battles is great, causing him to often referee matches between Ash and others. Brock also fancies himself as something of a ladies' man, though each time he hits on someone he is either rejected outright; pulled away by {{an|Misty}} or [[Max]]; or, more recently, {{m|Poison Jab}}bed by his {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}}.

{{-}}
===In Pokémon Origins===
[[File:Brock Poké Balls PO.png|250px|thumb|left|Brock in Pokémon Origins]]
In [[Pokémon Origins]], Brock is the only Gym Leader to have a key role other than [[Giovanni]]. Much like his role in the {{pkmn|games}}, Brock is the Gym Leader of the Pewter Gym.

Brock is first seen in ''[[PO01|File 1: Red]]'', watching a [[Pokémon battle]] between {{OBP|Red|Origins}} and {{OBP|Blue|Origins}}. After Red is defeated, Brock talks to Red and teaches him about the basics of Pokémon battling and training.

Later, Red discovers that Brock is the Gym Leader of Pewter City and goes to challenge Brock to earn his first Badge. There, they have a Gym battle in which Brock teaches Red about type matchups and strategy. Brock is shown to have many Pokémon, and selects Geodude and Onix when Red confirms that he has no [[Badge]]s. This implies that all Gym Leaders have Pokémon of varying strengths in reserve in order to keep each challenge a fair fight. After a tough battle, Red eventually defeats Brock by using all of his Pokémon to slowly weaken Brock's Onix until it falls. Having lost the battle, Brock awards Red with the Boulder Badge and {{TM|34|Bide}}.

Unlike most other characters in Pokémon Origins, whose designs were based on their {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} designs, Brock's design is more akin to his {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} design.

Brock appeared in the [[Pokémon Masters Animated Trailer]], where he joined [[Scottie]] and {{ga|Rosa}} in a {{pkmn|journey}} across [[Pasio]]. In a forest, the trio came across [[Erika]], a {{tc|Beauty}}, and a {{tc|Lass}}; and battled their {{p|Vileplume}}, {{p|Lotad}}, and {{p|Whimsicott}}, respectively. His Onix was ensnared in Whimsicott's {{m|Leech Seed}}, but Rosa's {{p|Snivy}} managed to free it. Afterwards, Brock healed Snivy with a [[Potion]] after it was injured by Lotad's {{m|Energy Ball}}.

==In the manga==
===In the Ash & Pikachu manga===
{{main|Brock (anime)#In the Ash & Pikachu manga|Brock (anime)}}
Brock appears in [[Ash & Pikachu]], a {{pkmn|manga}} based on the Pokémon anime. Like in the anime, he is a traveling companion of {{Ash}} alongside {{an|Misty}}.

===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
{{main|Brock (anime)#In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga|Brock (anime)}}
As [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] is based on the [[Pokémon anime]], {{an|Brock}} is a commonly recurring character, although he does not appear in every chapter and he does not travel with {{Ash}} and {{an|Misty}} constantly.

===In the Magical Pokémon Journey manga===
[[File:Ash and Brock MPJ.png|thumb|200px|Ash and Brock in Magical Pokémon Journey]]
Brock, along with {{Ash}} and {{an|Misty}}, make cameo appearances in bonus chapters of [[Magical Pokémon Journey]]. In the bonus chapters, Brock and co. have mistakenly wandered into the world Magical Pokémon Journey is set in. The bonus chapters chronicle their attempts to return to their own world (of the {{pkmn|anime}}) and their encounters with various aspects of the Magical Pokémon Journey canon which differ from the anime's canon (such as the use of [[Poké Ball]]s).
{{-}}

===In the movie manga adaptations===
[[File:DP series trio.png|thumb|200px|Brock with his friends]]
As Brock has appeared in every movie prior to the {{series|Best Wishes}}, he has appeared in every manga adaptation of it. His team in the manga adaptations are the same as in the films.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Brock Adventures.png|thumb|200px|Brock and his {{p|Geodude}}]]
Aside from being a Gym Leader, Brock also works as a security guard at the [[Pewter Museum of Science]].

====History====
====={{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}=====
Brock debuts in ''[[PS005|Onix Is On!]]'', though he is mentioned earlier by {{adv|Blue}} in ''[[PS004|Wanted: Pikachu!]]'', who described him as being bored by no one being able to defeat him, or even get past the preliminaries. To gain access to Brock, a Trainer must win several rounds of battles against special Trainers of the Gym, and all of those battles are watched by him from a special room.

Brock is a brave Trainer, and he assists [[Erika]] and [[Misty]] in their {{pkmn|battle}}s against [[Team Rocket]]. He also gave {{adv|Yellow}} a {{p|Graveler}} after the good [[Gym Leader]]s of [[Kanto]] battled [[Agatha]]'s mind-controlling {{p|Gastly}}. However, he is also shown to be quick to anger and restless in his search for a good battle, and when discovering that {{adv|Red}}'s [[Pika]], the only remaining Pokémon of his, was disobedient, deemed his wins "dumb luck" and sought for a finisher attack instantly. However, when the boy begins to gain his Pokémon's trust, it chooses to fight for him and defeats his Onix.

====={{chap|Yellow}}=====
After [[Blaine]] figured out that Red must have been at [[Mt. Moon]] before going missing, Brock volunteered to search there, since Mt. Moon is closest to [[Pewter City]]. He then found a cast of Red frozen in ice there and contacted Blaine. Before all of the information could be exchanged, he found out that [[Pewter City]] was under attack by a group of [[Bruno]]'s {{p|Machop}} that was searching for Brock's {{badge|Boulder}}, and he left to protect it.

====={{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}=====
A few years later, he, along with Erika and Misty, traveled to [[Johto]] for the Gym Leader Tournament at the [[Indigo Plateau]], where he faced off against the expert of the newly discovered {{type|Steel}}, [[Jasmine]]. He lost the match and later fought against Team Rocket on the [[Magnet Train]].

|desc={{p|Onix}} is arguably Brock's most powerful Pokémon and is apparently well known for its speed, which causes shock waves when it moves. Onix was first used in battle against {{adv|Red}}'s [[Pika]]. Despite the type advantage, Onix was defeated by the small Electric type after it came to fight for Red of its own will. Three years later, Onix was sent out by Brock to use as a bridge when a bridge in the [[Tohjo Falls]] went out while Brock, Erika and Misty were heading to Johto, during which Misty is joined by {{p|Suicune}}. However, it itself collapsed when they were all attacked by a large group of {{p|Zubat}}, {{p|Golbat}} and {{p|Crobat}}. Once the group finally made it to the Indigo Plateau, Brock used Onix in his battle with [[Jasmine]]. It lost to [[Jasmine's Steelix]], which he initially mistook as an Onix of a different variety due to its rock covering used to hide the fact that it was a new, undiscovered species at the time.}}

It knows many ancient attacks and is a very powerful member of Brock's team; it was able to easily hold its own against Jasmine's [[Amphy]], nearly winning him the match despite the type disadvantage.

Kabutops's only known move is {{m|Ancient Power}}, and its Ability is {{a|Battle Armor}}.}}

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
Brock debuted in ''[[PM003|Take Out The Rival Onix!!]]''. Before {{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}} arrived in Pewter City, {{OBP|Green|Pocket Monsters}} got there and took Brock on. However, Brock was brutally strong as he managed to knock Green and his {{TP|Green|Charmander}} back into a window. The impact caused him to tell Red about Brock's strength. Despite Green's advice, Red decided to go to the Gym anyway. Red noticed Brock's collection of Pokémon he had caught over the years and one of them turned out to be {{TP|Red|Clefairy}}'s cousin, {{TP|Red|Pikachu|Pikachu (Pocket Monsters)}}. Brock then came and Red had his first Gym battle with him. Red used Clefairy while Brock used {{TP|Brock|Onix}}. Clefairy managed to defeat Onix by having it chase its own tail, earning Red the {{badge|Boulder}}.

Brock reappeared in ''[[PMRSs1|Clefairy, Form Teacher Of Class 1P!!]]'' in a form of a cameo. He was seen wearing his outfit from {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}.

==In the TFG==
{{TFG ID|Next Quest|Brock|39}} appears as a rare {{TFG|Trainer figure}} in the launch set, {{TFG|Next Quest}}, of the [[Pokémon Trading Figure Game]].

==Trivia==
* In {{5v2|Red|Blue|Yellow|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, all of Brock's {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are part {{type|Ground}} as well as part {{type|Rock}}.
* Despite being a Rock-type [[Type expert|expert]], none of Brock's Pokémon in [[Generation I]] know any Rock-type [[move]]s, only knowing {{type|Normal}} moves. This was changed in FireRed and LeafGreen.
* In Generation I, Brock's {{p|Onix}} knows {{m|Bind}} at [[level]]s 12 and 14, despite Onix not learning the move until level 15.
* Brock is one of two [[Gym Leader]]s not to give the {{player}} a [[TM]] of his specialty type, the other being [[Falkner]]. This is only true in Generations I and VII, however, as in FireRed and LeafGreen, Brock's chosen TM changed from {{TM|34|Bide}} to {{TM|39|Rock Tomb}}.
* During his Gym battle in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Brock uses a {{p|Rhyhorn}} with the [[Ability]] {{a|Sturdy}}, even though Rhyhorn cannot normally have that Ability.
* In HeartGold and SoulSilver, Brock trades the player a Rhyhorn knowing {{m|Thunder Fang}} (an [[Egg Move]]) in exchange for a {{p|Bonsly}}. This may be a reference to his {{an|Brock|anime counterpart}}, who is a {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}} and once owned a [[Brock's Sudowoodo|Bonsly]].
* As seen in HeartGold and SoulSilver, Brock's [[Trainer ID number]] is 06845.
* Out of all of Brock's Pokémon in the [[core series]] games, only three do not suffer from a double weakness to {{t|Grass}}: {{p|Rampardos}}, {{p|Aerodactyl}} and {{p|Tyranitar}}.
* In the [[Pokémon Stadium series]], Brock has been shown with several non-Rock-type Pokémon that his anime counterpart would later come to own, namely {{p|Golbat}} in {{eng|Pokémon Stadium|Stadium}}'s Round 2 fight, {{p|Forretress}} in {{pkmn|Stadium 2}}'s Round 1 fight, and {{p|Steelix}} in Stadium 2's Round 2 fight.
* Brock shares his French name (Pierre) with {{Steven}}, the {{pkmn|Champion}} of the [[Hoenn]] [[region]].
* According to [[Ken Sugimori]], Brock wasn't originally planned to be the first Gym Leader in {{2v2|Red|Blue}}.<ref>https://twitter.com/SUPER_32X/status/611129653110026241</ref>

[[File:Galar Sw.png|thumb|200px|In-game map of the Galar region from Sword]]
[[File:Galar Sh.png|thumb|200px|In-game map of the Galar region from Shield]]
'''Galar''' (Japanese: '''ガラル地方''' ''Galar-chihō'') is a [[region]] of the [[Pokémon world]]. It is the setting of {{g|Sword and Shield}}. It was the eighth [[core series]] region to be introduced.

==Etymology and design concept==
===Etymology===
Galar may have been derived from ''gallant'', ''gala'' (a special occasion), or ''{{wp|Galahad}}''. It can also come from an anagram of ''San-Graal'', the French name of the {{wp|Holy Grail}}.

===Design concept===
{{main|Pokémon world in relation to the real world#Galar|Pokémon world in relation to the real world → Galar}}
Galar is based on the {{wp|United Kingdom}},<ref>[https://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/we-interview-junichi-masuda-and-shigeru-ohmori-about-pokemon-sword-and-pokemon-shield/ We Interview Junichi Masuda and Shigeru Ohmori about ''Pokémon Sword'' and ''Pokémon Shield'' | Pokemon.com]</ref> with the region focusing heavily on the island of Great Britain, flipped upside-down as if being viewed from the north. The main region itself is based mostly on {{wp|England and Wales}}, while the [[Crown Tundra]] is based on {{wp|Scotland}}. The [[Isle of Armor]] is based on the {{wp|Isle of Man}}, which is a self-governing crown dependency of the United Kingdom.<ref>[https://twitter.com/pokemonnewsuk/status/1216731889920368643?s=21 Tweet regarding Isle of Armor and Crown Tundra's inspiration]</ref>

==History==
===Dated history===
* 20,000 years prior to the events of Pokémon Sword and Shield, a meteorite containing {{p|Eternatus}} fell.
* c. 3,000 years prior to the events of Pokémon Sword and Shield, a black storm called the [[Darkest Day]] occurred and was stopped by {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}}.

===Contemporary history===
{{ga|Victor}}/{{ga|Gloria}} and [[Hop]] receive their [[starter Pokémon]] from [[Leon]], the undefeated {{pkmn|Champion}}, and meet a mysterious {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in the [[Slumbering Weald]]. The two receive [[Pokédex]]es from [[Sonia]], [[Dynamax Band]]s from [[Professor Magnolia]], and [[endorsement]]s from Leon to enter the [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]]. They head on an adventure traveling across Galar challenging [[Gym]]s in order to earn eight [[Badge]]s to enter the Champion Cup. Over the course of their {{pkmn|journey}}, they encounter a group called [[Team Yell]], whose members support [[Marnie]] in the Gym Challenge. They also encounter another group called [[Macro Cosmos]], a conglomerate led by [[Chairman Rose]], who has endorsed his ward [[Bede]] in the Gym Challenge. During the Champion Cup in [[Wyndon Stadium]], Rose interrupts the Championship Match by reawakening {{p|Eternatus}} and bringing about the [[Darkest Day]] in an attempt to provide energy for the Galar region in 1,000 years. Victor/Gloria and Hop find a [[Rusted Sword]] and [[Rusted Shield]] and head to the [[Energy Plant]] in [[Hammerlocke]], where they battle Rose and summon {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}}. After defeating it, Victor/Gloria manages to catch Eternatus and returns to [[Wyndon]] to defeat Leon in the Championship Match, becoming the new Champion of Galar.

==Cities, routes, and other locations==
Galar has 11 cities and towns. Like in [[Unova]], [[Kalos]], and [[Alola]], the routes of Galar start counting again from 1, likely to represent its geographical isolation from the original four regions. There are 10 routes in total.

In the anime, it was revealed Galar is far enough away from Kanto (and presumably Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh) to require flying between the two locations via airplane.

===Demographics===
The Galar region has a total population of 727, including all towns, cities, and other areas.

==Trivia==
* The {{wp|Demonym|adjectival form}} of Galar is "Galarian", as seen in the term {{rf|Galarian|Form}}.
* Galar is the only [[core series]] [[region]]:
** To have all of its [[Gym]] [[Badge]]s named after their respective Gym's type.
** To not have an "o" in its English name.
** To not have a [[Victory Road]].
** To not have an [[Elite Four]].
*** A similar role is fulfilled by the Champion Cup.
** To contain no settlements that end in "Town" or "City" in their English names.
** To introduce no [[Mythical Pokémon]] at the time of its release.
** To contain a single landmass the map of which does not fit on the screen. Previous regions with multiple maps either [[Kanto|contained]] or [[Alola|were]] archipelagos.
** To introduce four [[fossil]]s, the most of any region so far.
*** Despite this, the region does not beat the record for most Fossil Pokémon introduced (five in [[Kanto]]) due to the Galarian Fossil Pokémon being unable to evolve.
*** Also, for the first time, none of the introduced Fossil Pokémon are {{t|Rock}} type, capable of {{pkmn|breeding}}, or have genders.
** To have two [[Gym Leader]]s resign from their posts over the course of a single game's plot.
** To not have an {{pkmn|anime}} [[series]] solely dedicated to [[Ash Ketchum]] fully exploring the region in a journey.
* Galar is the first region to have a {{type|Dark}} Gym.
* Galar has the fewest numbered [[route]]s of any core series region, with a total of ten.

'''Galar''' (Japanese: '''ガラル地方''' ''Galar-chihō'') is a [[region]] of the [[Pokémon world]]. It is the setting of {{g|Sword and Shield}}. It was the eighth [[core series]] region to be introduced.

==Etymology and design concept==
===Etymology===
Galar may have been derived from ''gallant'', ''gala'' (a special occasion), or ''{{wp|Galahad}}''. It can also come from an anagram of ''San-Graal'', the French name of the {{wp|Holy Grail}}.

===Design concept===
{{main|Pokémon world in relation to the real world#Galar|Pokémon world in relation to the real world → Galar}}
Galar is based on the {{wp|United Kingdom}},<ref>[https://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/we-interview-junichi-masuda-and-shigeru-ohmori-about-pokemon-sword-and-pokemon-shield/ We Interview Junichi Masuda and Shigeru Ohmori about ''Pokémon Sword'' and ''Pokémon Shield'' | Pokemon.com]</ref> with the region focusing heavily on the island of Great Britain, flipped upside-down as if being viewed from the north. The main region itself is based mostly on {{wp|England and Wales}}, while the [[Crown Tundra]] is based on {{wp|Scotland}}. The [[Isle of Armor]] is based on the {{wp|Isle of Man}}, which is a self-governing crown dependency of the United Kingdom.<ref>[https://twitter.com/pokemonnewsuk/status/1216731889920368643?s=21 Tweet regarding Isle of Armor and Crown Tundra's inspiration]</ref>

==History==
===Dated history===
* 20,000 years prior to the events of Pokémon Sword and Shield, a meteorite containing {{p|Eternatus}} fell.
* c. 3,000 years prior to the events of Pokémon Sword and Shield, a black storm called the [[Darkest Day]] occurred and was stopped by {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}}.

===Contemporary history===
{{ga|Victor}}/{{ga|Gloria}} and [[Hop]] receive their [[starter Pokémon]] from [[Leon]], the undefeated {{pkmn|Champion}}, and meet a mysterious {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in the [[Slumbering Weald]]. The two receive [[Pokédex]]es from [[Sonia]], [[Dynamax Band]]s from [[Professor Magnolia]], and [[endorsement]]s from Leon to enter the [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]]. They head on an adventure traveling across Galar challenging [[Gym]]s in order to earn eight [[Badge]]s to enter the Champion Cup. Over the course of their {{pkmn|journey}}, they encounter a group called [[Team Yell]], whose members support [[Marnie]] in the Gym Challenge. They also encounter another group called [[Macro Cosmos]], a conglomerate led by [[Chairman Rose]], who has endorsed his ward [[Bede]] in the Gym Challenge. During the Champion Cup in [[Wyndon Stadium]], Rose interrupts the Championship Match by reawakening {{p|Eternatus}} and bringing about the [[Darkest Day]] in an attempt to provide energy for the Galar region in 1,000 years. Victor/Gloria and Hop find a [[Rusted Sword]] and [[Rusted Shield]] and head to the [[Energy Plant]] in [[Hammerlocke]], where they battle Rose and summon {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}}. After defeating it, Victor/Gloria manages to catch Eternatus and returns to [[Wyndon]] to defeat Leon in the Championship Match, becoming the new Champion of Galar.

==Cities, routes, and other locations==
Galar has 11 cities and towns. Like in [[Unova]], [[Kalos]], and [[Alola]], the routes of Galar start counting again from 1, likely to represent its geographical isolation from the original four regions. There are 10 routes in total.

In the anime, it was revealed Galar is far enough away from Kanto (and presumably Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh) to require flying between the two locations via airplane.

===Demographics===
The Galar region has a total population of 727, including all towns, cities, and other areas.

==Trivia==
* The {{wp|Demonym|adjectival form}} of Galar is "Galarian", as seen in the term {{rf|Galarian|Form}}.
* Galar is the only [[core series]] [[region]]:
** To have all of its [[Gym]] [[Badge]]s named after their respective Gym's type.
** To not have an "o" in its English name.
** To not have a [[Victory Road]].
** To not have an [[Elite Four]].
*** A similar role is fulfilled by the Champion Cup.
** To contain no settlements that end in "Town" or "City" in their English names.
** To introduce no [[Mythical Pokémon]] at the time of its release.
** To contain a single landmass the map of which does not fit on the screen. Previous regions with multiple maps either [[Kanto|contained]] or [[Alola|were]] archipelagos.
** To introduce four [[fossil]]s, the most of any region so far.
*** Despite this, the region does not beat the record for most Fossil Pokémon introduced (five in [[Kanto]]) due to the Galarian Fossil Pokémon being unable to evolve.
*** Also, for the first time, none of the introduced Fossil Pokémon are {{t|Rock}} type, capable of {{pkmn|breeding}}, or have genders.
** To have two [[Gym Leader]]s resign from their posts over the course of a single game's plot.
** To not have an {{pkmn|anime}} [[series]] solely dedicated to [[Ash Ketchum]] fully exploring the region in a journey.
* Galar is the first region to have a {{type|Dark}} Gym.
* Galar has the fewest numbered [[route]]s of any core series region, with a total of ten.

'''Alder's Bouffalant''' (Japanese: '''アデクのバッフロン''' ''Adeku's Buffron'') is a Pokémon owned by [[Alder]] in the [[Pokémon anime]], {{pkmn|games}}, and {{pkmn|manga}}.

==In the anime==
[[File:Alder and Bouffalant.png|thumb|left|250px|Bouffalant and Alder]]
Bouffalant debuted in ''[[BW031|Ash and Trip's Third Battle!]]'' in [[Trip]]'s flashback. In years prior, Trip had attended a street fair where Alder was making an appearance. The [[Champion]] was engaged in a battle with a {{p|Herdier}} using Bouffalant, which he won using Bouffalant's powerful {{m|Head Charge}}. Following the battle, Trip introduced himself to Alder, and Alder allowed the boy to pet Bouffalant and give it some [[Pokémon food|food]] from his hand.

Bouffalant and its Trainer made another appearance in ''[[BW052|Ash Versus the Champion!]]'', this time in person. When {{Ash}} and Trip encountered Alder just outside [[Nimbasa City]], he challenged the two to a battle, which he initially proposed would be two-against-one. Trip, however, was disgusted by what he saw as his idol's change in personality from his serious demeanor in their first meeting, and stormed off. Ash accepted Alder's challenge, and sent {{OP|Ash|Pikachu}} to battle Alder. Though Ash and Pikachu fought seriously, however, Alder dozed off during the battle, resulting in it being called off. Irritated by this, Bouffalant attacked him with Head Charge and rammed him into a tree, but calmed down when Alder gave it an apple. Later, Alder sent Bouffalant back out to face a rampaging {{p|Gigalith}}, but quickly decided to deal with the problem himself instead.
[[File:Alder Bouffalant Sap Sipper.png|thumb|250px|Activating {{a|Sap Sipper}}]]

Bouffalant made a cameo appearance in ''[[BW069|Climbing the Tower of Success!]]'' in the form of a flashback when Ash had to dress up like him during the [[Wishing Bell Festival]] contest.

After Trip got the chance to battle Alder in ''[[BW092|Ash, Iris and Trip: Then There Were Three!]]'' and ''[[BW093|Goodbye, Junior Cup - Hello Adventure!]]'', Bouffalant was sent out to take on {{TP|Trip|Serperior}}. As Serperior was a {{type|Grass}} and used Grass-type moves on Bouffalant, Bouffalant was able to activate its Sap Sipper ability which negated damage, which Trip planned that it happened in order to have Alder and Bouffalant keep their guard down. Serperior than attacked Bouffalant with {{m|Dragon Tail}} to distract his foe even more. This gave the Regal Pokémon a chance to lower its defenses with {{m|Leer}} and to swat it away with Dragon Tail again, but this time, at its most vulnerable spot. However, this was not enough to take out Bouffalant as Bouffalant was unscathed by these attacks. Afterwards, Bouffalant takes out Serperior with a Head Charge since Trip's strategy did not work on Alder as he was the Champion instead of a normal Trainer.

===Personality and characteristics===
Bouffalant is shown to take battles seriously and has a bit of a temper, but has an affectionate side as well, seen when it allowed Trip to hand-feed it and when it licked Alder's face after eating an apple he gave it.

Alder's Bouffalant appeared in [[Pokémon Adventures]]. In its first appearance, it was seen ferrying its Trainer across the water toward Nimbasa City. Later, Alder spars with Bouffalant for fun. During the battle against [[N]] at the Dragonspiral Tower, it battled Darmanitan and Archeops where it was able to defeat the former, but lost later on.

'''Marnie''' (Japanese: '''マリィ''' ''Mary'') is one of the [[rival]] characters in [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], the others being [[Hop]] and [[Bede]], and [[Type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. She eventually replaces her older brother [[Piers]] as the [[Gym Leader]] of her [[hometown]] [[Spikemuth]]. As the Spikemuth Gym Leader, she gives the {{badge|Dark}} to Trainers who defeat her.

==In the games==
Marnie is one of the {{player}}'s [[rival]]s. She is a stoic, but well-mannered girl who wants to become {{pkmn|Champion}} to support her hometown, [[Spikemuth]]. Her [[starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]] is her {{p|Morpeko}}, who can be seen [[walking Pokémon|following her around]] outside of battle. She is constantly followed by her fan club, [[Team Yell]]. She can first be seen at [[Motostoke Stadium]] while the player and [[Hop]] register for the [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]]. The player first meets Marnie in the lobby of [[Motostoke]]'s Budew Drop Inn, where she scolds a group of {{tc|Team Yell Grunt}}s for causing trouble for the player, Hop, and other participants before introducing herself and apologizing on her behalf. After the player returns to Motostoke, the player has their first battle with her in the same lobby. The next day, Marnie will give them a copy of [[Kabu]]'s [[League Card]] and two [[Burn Heal]]s before seeing them off. The player later meets Marnie and Morpeko at [[Ballonlea Stadium]], where she learns her Morpeko has taken a liking to the player, and she gives them a copy of her League Card before officially acknowledging them as a rival.

Later, on the outskirts of Spikemuth on {{rt|9|Galar}}, Marnie will show the player an alternate way into town but insist on a battle before they can enter. After being defeated, Marnie gives them [[Piers]]'s League Card and leads them inside, claiming she'll get her revenge in the [[Galar League|Champion Cup]]. During their Spikemuth Gym Mission, the player will learn that Team Yell consists of the Gym's {{tc|Gym Trainer}}s, and that they blocked the main entrance to cut down on Marnie's competition. They also learn that the Gym Leader, Piers, is Marnie's older brother. After Piers is defeated, Marnie arrives to congratulate both her brother and her rival on the match and tells Piers she knows he plans to retire his title after the Champion Cup. Piers planned on offering the position to her, but Marnie refuses, telling him she can't be a Gym Leader if she becomes Champion. The player leaves Spikemuth while Marnie and Piers have their Gym Battle.

The player next meets Marnie as their first opponent in the semi-finals of the [[Wyndon Stadium]] Champion Cup. Marnie says she was expecting them, and that despite what they've been through together, she declares she's going to go all-out. Marnie is revealed to have a [[Dynamax Band]], unlike her brother, and uses it to [[Gigantamax]] the newest addition to her team, {{p|Grimmsnarl}}. After being defeated, Marnie thanks the player for the battle, saying that she enjoyed putting on a show for the crowd, but tells the player she hasn't yet decided who to root for just yet. After the semi-finals, the player and Hop meet Marnie, Piers, and Team Yell in front of the Rose of the Ronderlands hotel, who agree to help them look for [[Leon]]. While the player battles {{tc|Macro Cosmos's}} Eric, Marnie will lead Team Yell in cheering for the player, boosting their Pokémon's [[statistic|stats]]. As the player and the others reach [[Rose Tower]], Marnie and Piers will stay behind to hold off any other interlopers. Marnie later appears in the waiting room of Wyndon Stadium after Piers loses his match with [[Raihan]] in the Champion Cup finals, telling the player she'll be cheering for them.

After the player becomes Champion, they'll find Marnie in one of the rooms of the Budew Drop Inn, talking to her Morpeko. She attempts to practice smiling by pushing up the corners of her mouth, but when she is caught by the player, she runs off embarrassed. The player can then find her in Spikemuth, where she reveals she did take up Piers's offer, taking his place as Gym Leader. The player can train with her in a [[rematch]] here once daily. After being defeated for the first time, she will give the player a copy of her rare League Card. After obtaining this Card, they can encounter her in rematches in {{DL|Wyndon Stadium|Champion tournaments}} at [[Wyndon Stadium]], as well. Here, she will use the same team, only she will also Gigantamax her Grimmsnarl once more.

===League Cards===
This is a transcript of the back of Marnie's [[League Card]]s in {{g|Sword and Shield}}.
;Normal League Card
:"As a child, she was timid and a bit of a crybaby. However, she became more cheerful as she played with {{p|Morpeko|the Pokémon}} she received from [[Piers|her brother]], and her talents as a {{pkmn|Trainer}} also grew greatly. She joined the [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]] because she wishes to breathe life back into her dilapidated hometown, but she says she has been somewhat distracted by the boutiques throughout Galar. Though many in [[Spikemuth]] see her as a local celebrity, she herself has no interest in pursuing fame. However, she says she does appreciate the support of [[Team Yell]], her personal cheering squad."
;Rare League Card
:"She was appointed as the new [[Gym Leader]] of Spikemuth by her brother Piers. Piers caught Morpeko and gave it to her when she was five. She still finds herself at the mercy of Morpeko's {{a|Hunger Switch|mood swings}} even now. The local dialect of Spikemuth has a distinct kick to it, and many of Marnie's fans have started mimicking her. Marnie won't change her expression even when she gets angry, but once something sets her off, she stays angry for a long time."

===Pokémon===
Marnie keeps her Pokémon in [[Dusk Ball]]s.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokemon Adventures Manga===
Marnie first appeared in {{chap|Sword & Shield}}, though her appearance was limited to some posters that a few troublesome [[Team Yell Grunt]]s were holding. The Grunts, calling Marnie a "goddess" and "illustrious," tried to say that they were making mischief on Marnie's behalf, which angered [[Shirudomiria|Schilly]] into calling them a bunch of cowards. Insulted, the Grunts claimed that Marnie would never make them act unfairly, which caused [[Marvin]] to say that they knew they were being bad anyway. The Grunts then attacked after claiming that they would support Marnie with their victory, only to later leave in anger without mentioning Marnie further.

==In the TCG==
[[File:MarnieSwordShield200.jpg|200px|thumb|Full Art print of Marnie]]
{{main|Marnie (Sword & Shield 169)}}
'''Marnie''' was introduced as a {{TCG|Supporter card}} in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] during the English Sword & Shield Series (the Japanese Sword & Shield Era). It was first released in the Japanese {{TCG|V Starter Sets}}. It later appeared in the Japanese {{TCG|Shield}} expansion before debuting in English in the {{TCG|Sword & Shield}} expansion, with artwork by [[kirisAki]]. It was also released as a {{TCG|Full Art card}} and {{TCG|Secret card}} in the same Japanese and English expansions, with artwork by the same artist. It allows both players to shuffle their hands to the bottom of their decks. If so, the card user draws five cards and their opponent draws four.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* Marnie's uniform number is "960", which can be read in Japanese as {{wp|Japanese wordplay#Goroawase|goroawase}} for 苦労 ''kurō'', meaning "hardship", or 黒 ''kuro'', meaning "black".
* Marnie is the only [[Gym Leader]] in {{pkmn|Sword and Shield}} who doesn't use the {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}} "Gym Leader" when battled at a [[Gym]].

'''Marnie''' (Japanese: '''マリィ''' ''Mary'') is one of the [[rival]] characters in [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], the others being [[Hop]] and [[Bede]], and [[Type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. She eventually replaces her older brother [[Piers]] as the [[Gym Leader]] of her [[hometown]] [[Spikemuth]]. As the Spikemuth Gym Leader, she gives the {{badge|Dark}} to Trainers who defeat her.

==In the games==
Marnie is one of the {{player}}'s [[rival]]s. She is a stoic, but well-mannered girl who wants to become {{pkmn|Champion}} to support her hometown, [[Spikemuth]]. Her [[starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]] is her {{p|Morpeko}}, who can be seen [[walking Pokémon|following her around]] outside of battle. She is constantly followed by her fan club, [[Team Yell]]. She can first be seen at [[Motostoke Stadium]] while the player and [[Hop]] register for the [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]]. The player first meets Marnie in the lobby of [[Motostoke]]'s Budew Drop Inn, where she scolds a group of {{tc|Team Yell Grunt}}s for causing trouble for the player, Hop, and other participants before introducing herself and apologizing on her behalf. After the player returns to Motostoke, the player has their first battle with her in the same lobby. The next day, Marnie will give them a copy of [[Kabu]]'s [[League Card]] and two [[Burn Heal]]s before seeing them off. The player later meets Marnie and Morpeko at [[Ballonlea Stadium]], where she learns her Morpeko has taken a liking to the player, and she gives them a copy of her League Card before officially acknowledging them as a rival.

Later, on the outskirts of Spikemuth on {{rt|9|Galar}}, Marnie will show the player an alternate way into town but insist on a battle before they can enter. After being defeated, Marnie gives them [[Piers]]'s League Card and leads them inside, claiming she'll get her revenge in the [[Galar League|Champion Cup]]. During their Spikemuth Gym Mission, the player will learn that Team Yell consists of the Gym's {{tc|Gym Trainer}}s, and that they blocked the main entrance to cut down on Marnie's competition. They also learn that the Gym Leader, Piers, is Marnie's older brother. After Piers is defeated, Marnie arrives to congratulate both her brother and her rival on the match and tells Piers she knows he plans to retire his title after the Champion Cup. Piers planned on offering the position to her, but Marnie refuses, telling him she can't be a Gym Leader if she becomes Champion. The player leaves Spikemuth while Marnie and Piers have their Gym Battle.

The player next meets Marnie as their first opponent in the semi-finals of the [[Wyndon Stadium]] Champion Cup. Marnie says she was expecting them, and that despite what they've been through together, she declares she's going to go all-out. Marnie is revealed to have a [[Dynamax Band]], unlike her brother, and uses it to [[Gigantamax]] the newest addition to her team, {{p|Grimmsnarl}}. After being defeated, Marnie thanks the player for the battle, saying that she enjoyed putting on a show for the crowd, but tells the player she hasn't yet decided who to root for just yet. After the semi-finals, the player and Hop meet Marnie, Piers, and Team Yell in front of the Rose of the Ronderlands hotel, who agree to help them look for [[Leon]]. While the player battles {{tc|Macro Cosmos's}} Eric, Marnie will lead Team Yell in cheering for the player, boosting their Pokémon's [[statistic|stats]]. As the player and the others reach [[Rose Tower]], Marnie and Piers will stay behind to hold off any other interlopers. Marnie later appears in the waiting room of Wyndon Stadium after Piers loses his match with [[Raihan]] in the Champion Cup finals, telling the player she'll be cheering for them.

After the player becomes Champion, they'll find Marnie in one of the rooms of the Budew Drop Inn, talking to her Morpeko. She attempts to practice smiling by pushing up the corners of her mouth, but when she is caught by the player, she runs off embarrassed. The player can then find her in Spikemuth, where she reveals she did take up Piers's offer, taking his place as Gym Leader. The player can train with her in a [[rematch]] here once daily. After being defeated for the first time, she will give the player a copy of her rare League Card. After obtaining this Card, they can encounter her in rematches in {{DL|Wyndon Stadium|Champion tournaments}} at [[Wyndon Stadium]], as well. Here, she will use the same team, only she will also Gigantamax her Grimmsnarl once more.

===League Cards===
This is a transcript of the back of Marnie's [[League Card]]s in {{g|Sword and Shield}}.
;Normal League Card
:"As a child, she was timid and a bit of a crybaby. However, she became more cheerful as she played with {{p|Morpeko|the Pokémon}} she received from [[Piers|her brother]], and her talents as a {{pkmn|Trainer}} also grew greatly. She joined the [[Galar League|Gym Challenge]] because she wishes to breathe life back into her dilapidated hometown, but she says she has been somewhat distracted by the boutiques throughout Galar. Though many in [[Spikemuth]] see her as a local celebrity, she herself has no interest in pursuing fame. However, she says she does appreciate the support of [[Team Yell]], her personal cheering squad."
;Rare League Card
:"She was appointed as the new [[Gym Leader]] of Spikemuth by her brother Piers. Piers caught Morpeko and gave it to her when she was five. She still finds herself at the mercy of Morpeko's {{a|Hunger Switch|mood swings}} even now. The local dialect of Spikemuth has a distinct kick to it, and many of Marnie's fans have started mimicking her. Marnie won't change her expression even when she gets angry, but once something sets her off, she stays angry for a long time."

===Pokémon===
Marnie keeps her Pokémon in [[Dusk Ball]]s.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokemon Adventures Manga===
Marnie first appeared in {{chap|Sword & Shield}}, though her appearance was limited to some posters that a few troublesome {{Team Yell Grunts}} were holding. The Grunts, calling Marnie a "goddess" and "illustrious," tried to say that they were making mischief on Marnie's behalf, which angered {{Shirudomiria|Schilly}} into calling them a bunch of cowards. Insulted, the Grunts claimed that Marnie would never make them act unfairly, which caused {{Marvin}} to say that they knew they were being bad anyway. The Grunts then attacked after claiming that they would support Marnie with their victory, only to later leave in anger without mentioning Marnie further.

==In the TCG==
[[File:MarnieSwordShield200.jpg|200px|thumb|Full Art print of Marnie]]
{{main|Marnie (Sword & Shield 169)}}
'''Marnie''' was introduced as a {{TCG|Supporter card}} in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] during the English Sword & Shield Series (the Japanese Sword & Shield Era). It was first released in the Japanese {{TCG|V Starter Sets}}. It later appeared in the Japanese {{TCG|Shield}} expansion before debuting in English in the {{TCG|Sword & Shield}} expansion, with artwork by [[kirisAki]]. It was also released as a {{TCG|Full Art card}} and {{TCG|Secret card}} in the same Japanese and English expansions, with artwork by the same artist. It allows both players to shuffle their hands to the bottom of their decks. If so, the card user draws five cards and their opponent draws four.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* Marnie's uniform number is "960", which can be read in Japanese as {{wp|Japanese wordplay#Goroawase|goroawase}} for 苦労 ''kurō'', meaning "hardship", or 黒 ''kuro'', meaning "black".
* Marnie is the only [[Gym Leader]] in {{pkmn|Sword and Shield}} who doesn't use the {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}} "Gym Leader" when battled at a [[Gym]].

====History====
====={{series|Diamond & Pearl}}=====
[[File:Cynthia DP anime.png|thumb|left|240px|Cynthia in her original outfit]]
Cynthia was first mentioned in [[Lucian]]'s flashback in ''[[DP035|An Elite Meet and Greet!]]'', along with the members of the [[Sinnoh]] [[Elite Four]].

She properly debuted in ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training!]]'', where she was first seen battling against Lucian with her {{TP|Cynthia|Garchomp}} on television. She then arrived in person in [[Amity Square]], where she was studying ancient tablets. It was here that she met {{Ash}}, {{ashfr}}, and [[Paul]], who rushed down to Amity Square after they heard rumors of Cynthia being there. Paul challenged her to a [[Full Battle]], but Cynthia won easily. She then mentioned that she was just like Paul in her youth, determined to win with the strongest Pokémon. After the battle, because Nurse Joy was busy, she and {{an|Brock}} personally healed Paul's Pokémon, after convincing him to take them to a Pokémon Center. After this, back at the Amity Square Ruins, she explained something written there means very much to her: "When every life meets another life, something will be born". Later, Ash would think about this quote from time to time. Cynthia then decided to go to [[Celestic Town]], where she planned to study the legend of {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and the [[Lustrous Orb]].

In ''[[DP096|Losing Its Lustrous!]]'' and ''[[DP097|Double Team Turnover!]]'', Cynthia, along with Ash, his friends, her grandmother [[Professor Carolina]] and [[Officer Jenny]]'s police officers, tried to stop [[Team Galactic]] from stealing the Lustrous Orb at Celestic Town.

In ''[[DP100|Aiding the Enemy!]]'', Cynthia battled {{EF|Aaron}} to defend her title of Champion of the Sinnoh region on television, which she won. Ash and his friends commented that while Aaron was strong enough to be a member of the [[Elite Four]], Cynthia was still far stronger than him.

In ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'' and ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', Cynthia helped Ash and his friends protect the [[lake guardians]] and put a stop to Team Galactic at [[Spear Pillar]].

In ''[[DP180|Four Roads Diverged in a Pokémon Port!]]'', {{EF|Flint}} revealed that he intended to challenge Cynthia for her title of Champion.

In ''[[DP182|An Old Family Blend!]]'', Cynthia observed the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]] alongside [[Charles Goodshow]], making her the first current Champion to appear at a [[Pokémon League Conference]]. While watching, she showed a deep interest in the battle between Ash and Paul. At the end of the competition, she personally delivered the trophy to the winner, {{si|Tobias}}, who had won the Sinnoh League and the right to face the Elite Four.

In ''[[DP191|Memories Are Made of Bliss!]]'', Ash and his friends watched her battle with Flint for the title of Champion. Flint's Infernape managed to defeat two of her Pokémon, but Garchomp ultimately defeated [[Flint's Infernape]], earning Cynthia the victory.

Cynthia also had a cameo appearance at the beginning of ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', where she was engaged in a battle against {{FB|Tower Tycoon|Palmer}}. In addition, Cynthia made a cameo appearance in the ending credits of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.

====={{series|Best Wishes}}=====
[[File:Cynthia anime BW2.png|thumb|250px|Cynthia in the {{series|Best Wishes}}]]
In ''[[BW085|All for the Love of Meloetta!]]'', Cynthia met up with Ash again in [[Virbank City]] in [[Unova]] at an ice cream stand. She told Ash, {{an|Iris}} and {{an|Cilan}} about the [[Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup]], where she would have an {{wp|exhibition game|exhibition match}}. Ash and {{ashfr}} then decided to go with Cynthia and participate. On the way to the seaport to take a plane to Cynthia's villa in [[Undella Town]], she almost hit an injured {{an|Meloetta}} with her car. She discovered that it was suffering from a fever and gave Ash, Iris, and Cilan instructions on how to make it feel better. She asked Iris and Cilan to find a Berry for it while she and Ash would get some ice. She was revealed to have a {{p|Glaceon}} which used {{m|Ice Beam}} to freeze the water. Cynthia and Ash broke the ice and took it to Meloetta. After it recovered a little, Iris asked Cynthia if she could battle her and her Garchomp while she used {{TP|Iris|Axew}}, as Iris was thrilled to battle a {{type|Dragon}} she had never met before. Cynthia agreed and the battle got underway. Even though Axew learned {{m|Giga Impact}} during the battle, Garchomp proved to be way too strong for Axew. Just when Garchomp was about to hit Axew with {{m|Brick Break}}, Cynthia stopped Garchomp from attacking and ended the battle before Axew could get hurt.

In ''[[BW086|Piplup, Pansage, and a Meeting of the Times!]]'', Ash and his friends arrived in Undella Town, at Cynthia's villa. Here, Ash was reunited with {{an|Dawn}} for the first time since his journey in Sinnoh. After that, Cynthia watched a battle between Dawn and Cilan.

In ''[[BW090|Jostling for the Junior Cup!]]'', Cynthia was seen talking with [[Alder]] in [[Lacunosa Town]], where the Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup was held. Later, she participated in an exhibition match with her Garchomp against Unova Elite Four member [[Caitlin]] and her {{p|Gothitelle}}. The battle resulted in a draw after the battle's 10 minute time limit ran out. She then appeared in ''[[BW091|Battling Authority Once Again!]]'', where she observed the tournament and helped Iris with {{TP|Iris|Dragonite}}'s problem with listening to her commands and gave [[Trip]] some advice. After the conversation Trip thought to himself that after defeating Alder, she would be next. In the [[BW092|following episode]], Cynthia was seen watching the battle of Iris against Ash and after the battle, Cynthia talked to Iris about their relationships with Pokémon. In ''[[BW093|Goodbye, Junior Cup - Hello Adventure!]]'', Cynthia was seen watching the battle Trip was allowed to have against Alder for winning the Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup. After this, she watched the closing ceremony of the competition. Back in Undella Town, she watched a battle between Ash and Dawn, and later went with the others to wave Dawn farewell when she went to [[Johto]].

In ''[[BW096|Meloetta and the Undersea Temple!]]'' and ''[[BW097|Unova's Survival Crisis!]]'', Cynthia helped Ash and his friends put a stop to Team Rocket's Operation Tempest and saved the [[Unova]] [[region]] from the {{an|Forces of Nature}}'s {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Forces of Nature|Therian Forme}}'s rage. She said goodbye to Ash in ''[[BW098|Beauties Battling for Pride and Prestige!]]'' after informing him that the [[Unova League]] was starting in a few weeks.

Cynthia also made a cameo appearance in the ending credits of ''[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]''.

====Character====
Cynthia is astoundingly powerful and well-respected as [[Sinnoh]]'s {{pkmn|Champion}}. She is measured in her battle style, and while she attacks in quick succession, she prefers not to exhaust either hers or her opponents' Pokémon. Cynthia has a calm demeanour, not showing the slightest of stress even in the heat of {{pkmn|battle}}. Cynthia is incredibly wise and well versed in the Sinnoh time-space legends. Throughout the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} she often quoted ''"When every life meets another life, something will be born"'', a line directly from the Sinnoh time-space legends. She is particularly interested in the [[friendship]] between Trainers and their Pokémon, and enjoys mentoring young Trainers, and willingly offers advice to support their growth such as {{Ash}}, [[Paul]] and [[Unova League]]'s [[Caitlin]].

In her spare time, if any, Cynthia makes sure to unwind at her [[Undella Town]] villa. She also has a sweet tooth, as shown in many of her appearances, however she is often conflicted with which flavor to choose as shown in ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training!]]'' and ''[[BW085|All for the Love of Meloetta!]]''. Her love for sweets also occasionally cause comedic nuisance, as she rushed back towards [[Virbank City]] after receiving a phone call about a specific ice cream flavour she wanted, despite having an injured {{an|Meloetta}} present.

On the way to the seaport to take a plane to Cynthia's villa in [[Undella Town]], she almost hit an injured {{an|Meloetta}} with her car. She discovered that it was suffering from a fever and gave Ash, Iris, and Cilan instructions on how to make it feel better. She asked Iris and Cilan to find a Berry for it while she and Ash would get some ice. She was revealed to have a {{p|Glaceon}} which used {{m|Ice Beam}} to freeze the water. Cynthia and Ash broke the ice and took it to Meloetta. After it recovered a little, Iris asked Cynthia if she could battle her and her Garchomp while she used {{TP|Iris|Axew}}, as Iris was thrilled to battle a {{type|Dragon}} she had never met before. Cynthia agreed and the battle got underway. Even though Axew learned {{m|Giga Impact}} during the battle, Garchomp proved to be way too strong for Axew. Just when Garchomp was about to hit Axew with {{m|Brick Break}}, Cynthia stopped Garchomp from attacking and ended the battle before Axew could get hurt.

In ''[[BW086|Piplup, Pansage, and a Meeting of the Times!]]'', Ash and his friends arrived in Undella Town, at Cynthia's villa. Here, Ash was reunited with {{an|Dawn}} for the first time since his journey in Sinnoh. After that, Cynthia watched a battle between Dawn and Cilan.

In ''[[BW090|Jostling for the Junior Cup!]]'', Cynthia was seen talking with [[Alder]] in [[Lacunosa Town]], where the Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup was held. Later, she participated in an exhibition match with her Garchomp against Unova Elite Four member [[Caitlin]] and her {{p|Gothitelle}}. The battle resulted in a draw after the battle's 10 minute time limit ran out. She then appeared in ''[[BW091|Battling Authority Once Again!]]'', where she observed the tournament and helped Iris with {{TP|Iris|Dragonite}}'s problem with listening to her commands and gave [[Trip]] some advice. After the conversation Trip thought to himself that after defeating Alder, she would be next. In the [[BW092|following episode]], Cynthia was seen watching the battle of Iris against Ash and after the battle, Cynthia talked to Iris about their relationships with Pokémon. In ''[[BW093|Goodbye, Junior Cup - Hello Adventure!]]'', Cynthia was seen watching the battle Trip was allowed to have against Alder for winning the Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup. After this, she watched the closing ceremony of the competition. Back in Undella Town, she watched a battle between Ash and Dawn, and later went with the others to wave Dawn farewell when she went to [[Johto]].

In ''[[BW096|Meloetta and the Undersea Temple!]]'' and ''[[BW097|Unova's Survival Crisis!]]'', Cynthia helped Ash and his friends put a stop to Team Rocket's Operation Tempest and saved the [[Unova]] [[region]] from the {{an|Forces of Nature}}'s {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Forces of Nature|Therian Forme}}'s rage. She said goodbye to Ash in ''[[BW098|Beauties Battling for Pride and Prestige!]]'' after informing him that the [[Unova League]] was starting in a few weeks.

Cynthia also made a cameo appearance in the ending credits of ''[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]''.

====Character====
Cynthia is astoundingly powerful and well-respected as [[Sinnoh]]'s {{pkmn|Champion}}. She is measured in her battle style, and while she attacks in quick succession, she prefers not to exhaust either hers or her opponents' Pokémon. Cynthia has a calm demeanour, not showing the slightest of stress even in the heat of {{pkmn|battle}}. Cynthia is incredibly wise and well versed in the Sinnoh time-space legends. Throughout the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} she often quoted ''"When every life meets another life, something will be born"'', a line directly from the Sinnoh time-space legends. She is particularly interested in the [[friendship]] between Trainers and their Pokémon, and enjoys mentoring young Trainers, and willingly offers advice to support their growth such as {{Ash}}, [[Paul]] and [[Unova League]]'s [[Caitlin]].

In her spare time, if any, Cynthia makes sure to unwind at her [[Undella Town]] villa. She also has a sweet tooth, as shown in many of her appearances, however she is often conflicted with which flavor to choose as shown in ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training!]]'' and ''[[BW085|All for the Love of Meloetta!]]''. Her love for sweets also occasionally cause comedic nuisance, as she rushed back towards [[Virbank City]] after receiving a phone call about a specific ice cream flavour she wanted, despite having an injured {{an|Meloetta}} present.

'''Officer Jenny''' (Japanese: '''ジュンサー''' ''Junsar'', usually referred to as '''ジュンサーさん''' ''Junsar-san'') is the name by which the police officers who use {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in their duties are referred to.

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
====History====
=====[[Original series]]=====
======Kanto======
[[File:Officer Jenny.png|thumb|left|220px|Officer Jenny before the {{series|Best Wishes}}]]
Officer Jenny debuted in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency]]''. She was seen at the beginning of the episode warning the citizens of [[Viridian City]] of [[Team Rocket trio|thieves in the area]] and to report suspicious-looking people immediately. Stopping {{Ash}}, who had his {{AP|Pikachu}} in his arms, she suspected him of being a thief, but once she saw his [[Pokédex]], she believed that he was a [[Pokémon Trainer]], while also mentioning that three other Trainers had come through {{ci|Viridian}} that day. Using her motorcycle, she brought Ash to the [[Pokémon Center]], and once Pikachu was in the hands of [[Nurse Joy]], she left. After {{TRT}} broke into the Pokémon Center, however, she made her way back, but appearing just in time to see the Center exploding from a combination of Pikachu's {{m|Thunder Shock}} and {{TP|James|Koffing}}'s {{m|Smog}} attacks. She stayed and helped Nurse Joy through the morning, assuring her that Ash and {{an|Misty}} will have no trouble getting through the [[Viridian Forest]].

The Officer Jenny of an unnamed [[Kanto]] town has been a recurring character in the {{pkmn|anime}}. She debuted in ''[[EP012|Here Comes the Squirtle Squad]]'', where she took in the troublesome [[Squirtle Squad]] and trained them to become a firefighting crew. She met Ash and his friends again at the [[Fire and Rescue Grand Prix]] in ''[[EP147|The Fire-ing Squad!]]'', where she and the Squirtle Squad were participating in the competition and eventually won. She allowed [[Ash's Squirtle]] to leave Ash's team and rejoin the Squirtle Squad, with the hopes that its firefighting training will make it more agile in {{pkmn|battle}}. Officer Jenny has since returned Squirtle to Ash several times, including during the [[Silver Conference]] and for Ash's match against {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}}.

An Officer Jenny in [[HopHopHop Town]] in ''[[EP027|Hypno's Naptime]]'' investigated the missing children as she placed posters of them for each one. She, along with Ash and {{ashfr}}, discovered that a {{p|Hypno}} from the [[Pokémon Lover's Club]] was responsible for the string of disappearances.

In ''[[EP034|The Kangaskhan Kid]]'', Officer Jenny worked as a ranger in the [[Safari Land]] Pokémon Reservation Area. After Ash attempted to throw a {{i|Poké Ball}} at a "{{p|Chansey}}" near some bushes, Officer Jenny appeared from the bushes wearing a Chansey hat. Officer Jenny took Ash and his friends to her station in the reserve. After letting the group off with a warning, she discovered Team Rocket trying to steal some {{p|Kangaskhan}} in the reserve.

In ''[[EP054|The Case of the K-9 Caper!]]'', Ash and his friends came across Officer Jenny as she and the canine police unit tackled a thief, who was actually a fellow officer in disguise. The group joined Officer Jenny at the nearby training academy, where Ash and Pikachu competed and failed against Jenny and her {{TP|Officer Jenny|Growlithe}}. Team Rocket later arrived in their van and took control of all of the Growlithe using special megaphone that changed their voices to resemble their Trainers. They were able to subdue Officer Jenny using the Growlithe, but after remembering the times it had with Officer Jenny, her Growlithe turned on Team Rocket and freed the others, forcing the trio to flee.

In ''[[EP057|The Breeding Center Secret]]'', Officer Jenny took Ash, {{an|Brock}}, [[Todd]], and the Team Rocket trio into custody after they were captured by [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]], who accused them of being burglars. {{an|Misty}} and Pikachu recovered Todd's confiscated camera from Cassidy and showed the photographic evidence of the duo's fake breeding center scheme. Officer Jenny then released Misty's friends and arrested Butch and Cassidy.

Several Officer Jennys from all across [[Kanto]] were present at the [[Indigo Plateau]] to help keep the peace during the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]].

======Orange Islands======
In ''[[EP086|Pikachu Re-Volts]]'', [[Mandarin Island North]]'s Officer Jenny noticed a bunch of Pokémon who disobeyed their Trainers. However, her {{p|Gastly}} was the only one who was unaffected by the problem caused by [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]]'s {{p|Drowzee}}, as Gastly is a {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon.

[[Pinkan Island]] and its rare pink Pokémon, featured in ''[[EP088|In the Pink]]'', were shown to be protected by the Officer Jenny that lives on the distant outpost, alongside a group of volunteers and {{tc|Scientist}}s. She foiled Team Rocket's attempts to steal a pink {{p|Nidoking}} and later used a lasso to calm the rampaging Drill Pokémon down.

======Johto======
In ''[[EP123|Spinarak Attack]]'', the Officer Jennys who protect [[Catallia City]] use {{p|Spinarak}} after a criminal, [[The Black Arachnid]], was stopped by one such pair hundreds of years ago. Like her ancestor, the current Officer Jenny used her own Spinarak to foil Team Rocket's crime spree.

In ''[[EP229|An EGG-sighting Adventure!]]'', Officer Jenny arrived at a [[Pokémon Center]] after Ash's {{AP|Egg|Phanpy}} disappeared. She claimed to be good at solving cases but got the suspects wrong.

An Officer Jenny and her {{p|Pidgeot}} helped Ash rescue his Pikachu from Team Rocket in ''[[EP274|Hoenn Alone]]''. Pidgeot also flew Ash and Pikachu back on to their ship as it was bound for [[Littleroot Town]] in the [[Hoenn]] [[region]].

====={{series|Advanced Generation}}=====
In ''[[AG006|A Poached Ego!]]'', Officer Jenny was hunting down a [[Pokémon poacher]] named [[Rico]], who was illegally capturing {{type|Poison}} Pokémon in the [[Petalburg Forest]]. In the end, Rico was arrested by Jenny after his cache of {{p|Ekans}} and {{p|Koffing}} were freed by {{TRT}}.

[[Rustboro City]]'s police force was on high alert following rumors of an alleged plan to infiltrate the [[Devon Corporation]]. Despite the increased security, however, a {{tc|Team Aqua Grunt}} managed to break into the company headquarters and steal a vile of [[fossil]] DNA in ''[[AG017|Stairway to Devon]]''. [[Max]] managed to recover the sample, but the thief fled the scene. The police chase continued in the [[AG018|following episode]], and the Team Aqua Grunt managed to escape Rustboro City entirely.

In ''[[AG065|Gulpin it Down]]'', Officer Jenny took care of a swarm of {{p|Gulpin}} that were eating all of the food in a town.

In ''[[AG119|The Ribbon Cup Caper]]'', Officer Jenny was seen on board the [[S.S. St. Flower]], a luxury cruise ship headed to [[Slateport City]] for the [[Hoenn]] [[Grand Festival]]. Ash and his friends helped her track down [[Brodie]] after he stole the [[Ribbon Cup]]. Brodie later disguised himself as another Officer Jenny, but Brock was able to recognize the true one.

====={{series|Diamond & Pearl}}=====
In ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]]'', an Officer Jenny from [[Sandgem Town]] escorted {{Ash}} to [[Professor Rowan]]'s lab as he searched for {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{an|Dawn}}. The same Jenny reappeared in the [[DP003|next episode]], and she was pleased that Ash was now reunited with Pikachu.

In ''[[DP009|Setting the World on Its Buneary!]]'', an Officer Jenny from [[Jubilife City]] appeared, almost running over Pikachu, who could not see due to having his eyes covered by Ash's cap. Dawn initially presumed she was the same Jenny that the group encountered previously, before Brock explained how there are multiple Jennys, like with Nurse Joy. She then explained how a disguised Team Rocket had been stealing machine parts from a nearby factory, and later caught up to them, but was not able to arrest them before they ran away. This Officer Jenny is the sister of the Jenny from Sandgem Town.

In ''[[DP033|All Dressed Up With Somewhere To Go!]]'', an Officer Jenny was one of the judges of the [[Pokémon Dress-Up Contest]] along with [[Mr. Sukizo]] and [[Nurse Joy]].

In ''[[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence!]]'' an Officer Jenny from [[Eterna City]] was summoned to the [[Eterna Historical Museum]]. The Officer Jenny from [[Viridian City]] was also there too.

An Officer Jenny from [[Kanto]] appeared in ''[[DP115|Stealing the Conversation!]]'' with a {{p|Chatot}} as her partner. Apparently, she had come all the way to [[Sinnoh]] to capture [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}, and was fully aware of them having followed Ash ever since [[Viridian City]].

In ''[[DP135|Beating the Bustle and Hustle!]]'', Officer Jenny competed in a [[Sinnoh Pokémon Hustle|Pokémon Hustle]]. She was undercover and tracked down two criminals named [[Crimson]] and [[Azure]]. She was able to get through the Pokémon Hustle and chased after the duo. After Ash defeated them, Officer Jenny successfully arrested them.

====={{series|Best Wishes}}=====
======Unova======
[[File:Officer Jenny anime BW.png|thumb|250px|Officer Jenny in the {{series|Best Wishes}}]]
In ''[[BW006|Dreams by the Yard Full!]]'', an Officer Jenny arrived in [[Striaton City]] when [[Dream Mist]] shrouded the city. At the [[Dreamyard]], she discovered that the Team Rocket trio were responsible for the Dream Mist and questioned their appearance in Unova despite being Kanto-based. After Team Rocket got away using {{TP|Jessie|Woobat}}'s {{m|Gust}}, Officer Jenny went after them. Another Officer Jenny chased after Team Rocket in ''[[BW010|A Rival Battle for Club Champ!]]'' after hearing about the incident in the Dreamyard. However, Officer Jenny was unable to catch them as they escaped with the help of [[Pierce]].

[[Christie]] and [[Doyle]] helped Officer Jenny as she investigated a missing Audino in ''[[BW035|Where Did You Go, Audino?]]''. Despite their efforts, [[Ash's Roggenrola]] was credited on helping out the most.

In ''[[BW045|Beheeyem, Duosion, and the Dream Thief!]]'', after Ash, {{an|Iris}}, and {{an|Cilan}} were trapped in a dream created by {{OBP|Leon|BW045}}'s {{p|Beheeyem}}, Officer Jenny helped the group to escape the dream. They had to acknowledge that they were in the dream but since Meowth was still asleep, they were unable to get out. However, after Meowth {{m|Fury Swipes|fury swiped}} Leon, the group were able to escape the dream and Leon was then arrested by Officer Jenny.

An Officer Jenny was prepared to lay charges against a {{TP|Iris|Dragonite}} after it allegedly destroyed [[Undella Town]]'s power plant in ''[[BW089|Iris and the Rogue Dragonite!]]''. {{an|Iris}} struck a [[friendship]] with Dragonite and later protected it from Officer Jenny and her posse of {{pkmn|Trainer}}s enlisted to stop it. Jenny eventually decided to not pursue Dragonite anymore after Ash and {{an|Cilan}} revealed that Dragonite was actually protecting a group of {{p|Pidove}} when it damaged the power plant.

======Decolore Islands======
In ''[[BW129|The Pirates of Decolore!]]'', Ash and his friends helped Officer Jenny capture the notorious Pokémon pirates of the [[Decolore Islands]], who were responsible for thefts throughout the archipelago. After Ash defeated the group's {{p|Croconaw}} and {{p|Azumarill}} in a [[Double Battle]], the {{type|Water}}s agree to leave their lives of crime behind. Later, after rescuing a trio of {{p|Darumaka}} from a raft, Officer Jenny recruited them to the Decolore Coast Guard rescue squad.

====={{series|XY}}=====
[[File:Officer Jenny anime XY.png|thumb|left|250px|Officer Jenny in the {{series|XY}}]]
In ''[[XY002|Lumiose City Pursuit!]]'', Officer Jenny and another police officer evacuated the [[Lumiose City]] area when [[Professor Sycamore]]'s {{p|Garchomp}} was on a rampage.

In ''[[XY007|Giving Chase at the Rhyhorn Race!]]'', Officer Jenny went up to Ash, {{an|Clemont}}, {{an|Bonnie}} and {{an|Serena}} after they saw some Rhyhorn racers running to where they were. Officer Jenny then took them to [[Odyssey Village]] after explaining that Rhyhorn racing took place there.

In ''[[XY012|To Catch a Pokémon Smuggler!]]'', she and {{p|Manectric}} chased after a smuggler named [[Dolan]] as he was stealing a bunch of {{p|Scatterbug}} and {{p|Spewpa}}. One of the Scatterbug fell out of Dolan's car and when Ash took it to a Pokémon Center, she roped Ash as she thought he was working for Dolan until {{an|Clemont}} cleared the whole situation by saying that the group wanted to help her in stopping Dolan. Officer Jenny, Ash, and his friends work together to track the smuggler. As Ash went to an abandoned laboratory and battled Dolan, Officer Jenny appeared and arrested the smuggler. The group releases all of the Scatterbug and Spewpa from Dolan's laboratory.

[[File:Madame X.png|thumb|250px|As Madame X]]
In ''[[XY019|A Conspiracy to Conquer!]]'', Officer Jenny went to investigate at a radio observatory after getting a report that strange things were going on there. In the observatory, she ran into a {{an|Malamar}}, who hypnotized her into becoming its accomplice, '''Madame X''' (Japanese: '''マダムＸ''' ''Madame X''). Later, she went to a dark cave where Team Rocket were watching a video of {{AP|Pikachu}} using his moves. Malamar hypnotized the trio except for Meowth, and Madame X went looking for Ash and his friends, with Team Rocket in tow. She found them by a tree, and Malamar took Pikachu with them to the radio observatory. Malamar hypnotizes Pikachu, who was soon under Madame X's control. When Ash and Meowth arrived, Ash's friends became hypnotized by Malamar and the duo encounter Madame X in the observation chamber. She has Pikachu use {{m|Thunderbolt}} on his own Trainer, but Ash withheld himself and got through to Pikachu. The Automatic Pikachu Retrieving Device that Clemont built earlier entered the observatory and crashes at Malamar. Officer Jenny went back to normal, and she and the gang went after Malamar, who led them to a room containing the system of great significance. Since everyone saw what Malamar was doing, it destroyed the mind-control device it was building before fleeing.

The Officer Jenny involved with the Malamar reappeared in ''[[XY054|Facing the Grand Design!]]'', where she was investigating Malamar's latest scheme at [[Grace Tower]]. She again met up with Ash, his friends and Team Rocket, and asked both sides to call it a truce. When Malamar and its two fellow ones activated the crystals to distort the [[Pokémon world]], Officer Jenny was about to conduct a plan to stop the crystals, but two of the evil Malamar caught her and the group. Officer Jenny was held by Malamar's {{m|Psychic}}, but was freed later on with the help of the good Malamar and {{p|Inkay}} from the forest. She sent out her {{TP|Officer Jenny|Manectric}} to prevent the crystals from working any further. After stopping the three evil Malamar's plan for the second time, she attempted to arrest them, but the antagonistic Malamar escaped by going into the merged crystals.

In ''[[XY066|Confronting the Darkness]]'', Officer Jenny was investigating a [[Dark Clembot|Clembot]] wreaking havoc in the Lumiose City warehouses. She mistook Clemont's [[Clembot]] as the culprit, to the point that she had to make an arrest in the [[Lumiose Gym]]. Later, when Clemont and [[Belmondo]] had their {{pkmn|battle}}, she attempted to arrest Belmondo, but Clemont wanted to finish the match. Using {{TP|Clemont|Luxray}}, Clemont was able to defeat Belmondo, and Belmondo was taken into custody, along with [[Dark Clembot]].

Officer Jenny appeared in ''[[XY119|A Full-Strength Battle Surprise!]]'' inspecting a forest area with her Manectric and a group of people. They were, however, forced to retreat due to an attack by large vines mutated by [[Team Flare]].

====={{series|Sun & Moon}}=====
[[File:Officer Jenny SM010.png|thumb|left|250px|Officer Jenny in the {{series|Sun & Moon}}]]
{{incomplete|section|2=Role of Poni Island Officer Jenny}}
Officer Jenny received another redesign for the ''Sun & Moon'' series. Unlike other regions, which usually had an Officer Jenny in each town and city, Alola only has four in total, with each one responsible for safeguarding a specific island.

The [[Melemele Island]] Jenny debuted in ''[[SM009|To Top a Totem!]]'', where she informed people of a road closure due to fallen timber blocking the way, caused by {{rf|Alolan}} {{p|Rattata}} and {{p|Raticate}}. Later, she prepared to ambush the pests in a grocery store alongside Ash, {{an|Professor Kukui}}, [[Hala]], the {{DL|Totem Pokémon|Totem Gumshoos}}, and its {{DL|Totem Pokémon|Ally Yungoos}}. After they chased away the Rattata and Raticate, Jenny asked an Ally Gumshoos to join her team, and it accepted.

In ''[[SM010|Trial and Tribulation!]]'', the Melemele Jenny and Gumshoos visited Ash to give him a certificate as recognition of his work. She then drove Ash to [[Iki Town]] for his [[Island challenge|grand trial]] against Hala before returning to her police duties.

The Officer Jenny from [[Akala Island]] debuted in ''[[SM070|The Young Flame Strikes Back!]]''; she owns a {{p|Granbull}}. She showed up at the [[Paniola Ranch‎‎]] just in time to arrest [[Viren]] and [[Viren's henchmen|his henchmen]] when they threatened to tear down {{an|Kiawe}}’s family ranch.

[[Ula'ula Island]]'s Officer Jenny and her partner {{p|Oricorio}} debuted in ''[[SM074|Tough Guy Trials!]]''. She greeted [[Nanu]], who was preparing to take a nap.

The Officer Jenny of Vermilion City reappeared in [[SS003]], where she met Ash and {{an|Go}} while they were investigating the outbreak of {{p|Ivysaur}}. She was holding traffic for a group of Ivysaur to cross the road before warning them that Team Rocket was seen in the area.

====Character====
Officer Jenny is not a single entity. Rather, there are many Jennys working as police officers across the various regions of the [[Pokémon world]].

Generally, Officer Jennys are brave and determined, but can be ineffective in their police duties. They fight against the likes of [[Team Rocket]], [[Team Magma]], [[Team Aqua]], and [[Team Galactic]] – among other miscellaneous criminals. Although there are many exceptions, Officer Jenny will generally have {{TP|Officer Jenny|Growlithe}} to use as a police dog.

[[File:Jenny Blue.png|thumb|220px|left|Officer Jenny before being digitally recolored in ''[[EP267|Love, Pokémon Style]]'']]
Although Jennys appear to be identical, there is some minor divergence among them, as evidenced by {{an|Brock}}. Brock is able to recognize different Jennys on numerous occasions; he appears to be the only character who can tell the Officer Jennys apart. The town/region where a certain Jenny comes from can be discerned by the symbol on their hats, which differs depending on location. There seem to be two {{ci|Viridian}} Jennys, as during the [[Indigo League]], two Jennys with the same hat symbol (previously stated to belong to the Viridian City Jenny) were seen side-by-side. The Jennys of the Orange Archipelago are outfitted with uniforms of a distinctly lighter blue color, and the Officer Jenny of [[LaRousse City]] is seen wearing a different uniform to all her counterparts, it being a far more elaborate version than the others (although it does retain the standard coloring and basic design scheme). The [[Unova]] region is home to Officer Jennys that look distinctly different than those of other regions. The Unova Officer Jennys all have a tan-colored uniform, unlike the other Jennys that wore blue. Additionally, the Jennys of Unova don a much shorter hairstyle.

When the series became digitally animated in ''[[EP261|Here's Lookin' at You, Elekid]]'', starting with ''[[EP267|Love, Pokémon Style]]'' Jenny's hair was colored in more of a greenish blue to match her [[Ken Sugimori|Sugimori]] artwork. Before this, her hair appeared to be more blue in color.

There is a very distinct parallel between the families of Officer Jenny, Nurse Joy, [[Don George]], and [[Porter]]. This may indicate some sort of relation or deeper connection. However, the only thing known about the four families is that they are apparently on good terms.

|desc={{OBP|Marble|DP059}}'s Luxray was having serious problems when Marble met the gang. It had recently evolved from {{p|Luxio}} and was unable to use {{type|Electric}} moves, making it a liability to Officer Jenny. As a result, Luxray developed a serious attitude problem, which not only caused it to constantly disobey Marble, but also caused it to fight other Electric-type Pokémon, like it did with {{AP|Pikachu}}.

After Team Rocket stole the [[Old Charm]] from under Marble's nose, Luxray and Pikachu were trapped below the mansion it was guarding in a maze filled with traps. After being saved by Pikachu from a trap, Luxray's attitude softened and it became friends with Pikachu. Luxray's enhanced eyesight allowed it so see other booby traps and it was able to save Pikachu from one later. After reestablishing its bond with Marble and regaining its Electric-type moves, it helped defeat Team Rocket and recover the Old Charm.

==In the games==
In {{game|Yellow}}, Officer Jenny will give out a {{p|Squirtle}} in [[Vermilion City]], as a reference to Ash's Squirtle in the anime. Another Officer Jenny also replaces the {{tc|Policeman|generic male officer}} in [[Cerulean City]].

The Officer Jenny with the Squirtle appears in a slightly expanded role in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]]. After defeating [[Misty]], a Squirtle appears and harasses the Officer, forcing her to leave her post in front of the burgled house in Cerulean. The player later finds the Officer and Squirtle in Vermilion, where Officer Jenny will give the player the Squirtle to look after if they have caught 60 individual Pokémon. Another Officer Jenny near [[Saffron City]]'s [[Saffron Gym|Gym]] will give them a set of [[clothing|police clothing]] after they defeat [[Team Rocket]] in [[Silph Co.]].

'''Vermilion City'''
* Before obtaining the {{badge|Thunder}}
:''"I just caught a <sc>{{p|Squirtle}}</sc> that was always getting into mischief. I think it needs a good trainer to get it straight."''

* After obtaining the Thunder Badge
:''"You have the <sc>Thunder Badge</sc>!? You must be a good trainer! I just caught a <sc>Squirtle</sc> that was always getting into mischief. Would you take good care of it?"''
::'''No''': ''"Oh... What am I to do now?"''
::'''Yes''': (after giving the Squirtle to the player) ''"OK! Please treat <sc>Squirtle</sc> right!"''

* If talked to again
:''"How is <sc>Squirtle</sc> doing?"''

==In the manga==
[[File:Officer Jenny EToP.png|thumb|200px|Officer Jenny in The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]
===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
An Officer Jenny makes a brief cameo in ''[[ET07|Pikachu's Excellent Adventure]]'', where she is chasing {{TRT}} in a helicopter. Generic police officers appear as well.

It is stated that {{an|Brock}} is the only character that can tell the Officer Jennys apart.

===In the movie adaptations===
Officer Jenny appeared in ''{{ma|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages}}''.

==Trivia==
* In ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]'', the Officer Jenny of Cerulean City refers to the one in Viridian City as her sister-in-law. This implies that one of them is married, probably the one in Viridian City since the Cerulean Jenny didn't mention a spouse when Brock asked her out.
* Officer Jenny, [[Nurse Joy]], and [[Don George]] all have Japanese names that begin with the kana ジ, while their English names all start with the same sound, {{wp|dʒ}}. They also all happen to be part of a large, extended family.
* The Officer Jennys in [[Kanto]], the [[Orange Archipelago]], [[Johto]], [[Hoenn]], and [[Sinnoh]] can be distinguished by the design of the symbol on their hat, the Jennys of [[Unova]] and [[Kalos]] are identified by the color of the symbol, and the officer Jenny's of [[Alola]] are identified by the color of the stripe on their vest.

Talk:Trio master

2020-04-04T21:44:24Z

Mr.GodzillaMan: /* Please delete this article! */

Don't you think this is overdoing it a bit? -[[User:Happy Mask Man|Happy Mask Man]] 17:24, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

I agree. This reads a bit more like fanfiction/fan terminology than anything. --[[User:Zeta|Zeta]] 17:50, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

Eh, I figured it needed to have a name. After all, there is a definite relationship between the birds and Lugia, the beasts and Ho-oh, and the Regis and Regigigas.

Think it should just be a subpage of [[Legendary trio]]? [[User:TTEchidna|Tom Temprotran]] 20:35, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

Forget a subpage, just merge it into the main trio article as a section. That article is short anyway. --WikidSmaht 09:09, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

So, uh, when's something going to be done about this silly article? -[[User:Happy Mask Man|Happy Mask Man]] 01:17, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

== Arceus ==

Isn't Arceus the master of Trio masters?--[[User:Kuki|Kuki]][[User talk:Kuki|Talk]] 16:31, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
:All we know is it's the master of the lake trio. Ho-Oh, Lugia, and Regigigas... well, they actually seem to be overlords of sky, sea, and land. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 16:45, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

i thought Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza were the overlords of the land, sea, and sky. I kind of pictured Ho-Oh and Lugia as guardians. and i'm not even sure what to think of Regigigas as of yet. [[User:InuMimi|InuMimi]] 12:39, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Remember that while Kyogre expanded the seas, Groudon expanded the continents, and Rayquaza brought neutral ground (and not ground as in Groudon, but you get what I mean) with the sky, they are very much beings of these domains, and have never been shown to watch over the effects of the domains they represent. Rayquaza may keep the balance between Kyogre and Groudon, but it seems to simply be a leader of the Sky World, rather than its Guardian. The Hebrew mythological/legendary/Biblical creatures known as Behemoth, Leviathan, and Ziz are seen as the Great Beasts of the Earth, Sea, and Sky (respectively), but not as the Guardians of these domains. They simply are the Greatest of the inhabitants of these domains. I'm not saying that Pokémon has to adhere to the stories that its Legendaries are based on, but they do provide a hint. Now, granted, Kyogre and Groudon's information in the version they do not appear in is important in that is states that Kyogre brought the relief of rain to those caught in drought, and Groudon brought and end to the monsoon-like rains that tormented various regions. But these are born from aspects of their nature - the ability to expand the seas or earth with Drizzle and Drought respectively. This would seem to state that Kyogre is actually the guardian of the Earth - as it brought balance back to regions suffering drought, the negative aspects of Groudon - and that Groudon is the guardian of the Seas, for precisely the equal and opposite reasons. Of course, they are not the guardians of each others' domains, though they do keep each other in check somewhat, when they're not sleeping, that is. And when they are both awake - well it seemed that they actually didn't want to fight each other in the games at least, and that it was the Orbs that drove them out of control. The citizens of Sootopolis in Emerald state that the two look like they actually don't want to be fighting each other, as if they are being forced to by the Red and Blue Orbs (which may or may not be man-made). And Rayquaza has been seen to keep them in check when this does happen (though somehow Lance and Ash and co. were able to stop them without Rayquaza in the anime). But even Rayquaza has been seen as very defensive of its area - in Movie 7 it attacked Deoxys on sight simply because Deoxys entered it's domain. That's more like an attack dog than a guardian trying to keep the balance of the skies.

Lugia has shown multiple times that if it existed in the sky, it would cause catastrophic events that could effect the entire world, but by maintaining its powers beneath the sea it is able to keep the balance of the world's water, and therefore the source of life (as seen in a traditional Buddhist sense, as well as in, say, Movies 1, 2, 4, 5, and 9). Ho-oh has been seen as the maker of Rainbows and the being that ends the storms that could cause pain and suffering to the world, so it is the guardian of the Sky World. Ironically, the Legendary Birds and their actions affect the sea and are governed by Lugia, while the Legendary beasts are governed by Ho-oh.

The Regi trio seem to have been made by Man, the class of beings often associated with the Earth, as bone and muscle and flesh are very Earthy substances. But Regigigas has been known as the being that pulled the Continents together by towing them with ropes, and it is also seen in Movie 11 as providing its phenomenal strength and its mastery over the great beasts that walk the Earth (here being Mammoswine) to prevent catastrophes such as that of the Glacidia glacier moving and causing much devastation across the Earth. Regigigas is perhaps the most Deus ex Machina a Pokémon movie character could get (though Kyogre in Movie 9 comes close), as he basically solves the final crisis of the movie, when Ash and co. couldn't. Regigigas' role of herding Megafauna is very Earth-based as well - see the Ground egg group, and it's role with Mammals (or HSOWA). Mammals almost define Earth and its denizens, though they certainly are not the only ones; but their association with humans and agriculture and also with the ancient Megafauna that dominated this world in the early Cenozoic are definitely indications that Regigigas is like a human of the ancient world, and how humans see themselves as the Stewards of Earth (or at least should...).

So my point here is that while Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza represent the elemental energies that empower the three domains of Earth, Sea, and Sky, respectively, it is Regigigas, Lugia, and Ho-oh (again respectively) that are the stewards of these domains. Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza represent a trio (though a statistically imbalanced trio as Rayquaza is stronger than the other two), but one without a Trio Master because they keep each other in-balance ability-wise (and if Kyogre has some possible connection with "the Beast of the Sea", than it may be that the Trio Masters each keep the Weather Trio member in their domain balanced as well, though that's getting more into speculation). Regigigas, Lugia, and Ho-oh are Trio Masters because of their Pokédex and series lore about their roles, which connect them with both the Trios they control and their domains of Land, Sea, and Sky. The association with Lugia and the Moon and Ho-oh and the Sun - that's another story that has absolutely no basis save the opening screens of Silver and Gold versions.

Arceus has yet to have been shown as the Master of Trio Masters, as has he yet to have been shown as the Master of the Dragon Trio (though this will probably be revealed next summer with Movie 12). So until then, Arceus remains as the Trio Master of the Lake Trio, only. But having created the entire world and its planes, I would assume he could be considered the master of the Weather Trio, the Dragon Trio, as well as relegating the Beast Trio, Bird Trio, and Regi Trio to Ho-oh, Lugia, and Regigigas. That, however, is speculation for now. Thank you for your time. [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] 03:53, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

== Arceus ==

Isn't he the trio master of the dragons as well.We know for sure he created Dialga and Palkia (and he probably created Giratina to start the reverse world but that is just speculation) which is like how Ho-oh created the Beasts and Ho-oh is the beast master so Arceus should be noted as the Dragon Trio Master or as Master of Dialga and Palkia.
[[User:Sailor Earth|Sailor Earth]] 16:22, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

True, but if he's only the master of Dialga and Palkia, then he's not a Trio Master, just a Duo Master, so to speak.

:Please add your sig with the four tildes after you comment. Arceus is almost certainly the Trio Master of the Dragon Trio as well; however, his relationship with Giratina is still not yet confirmed, while it's been established that he either created Dialga and Palkia or else they are warring aspects of himself (sorry for using the masculine noun-forms). Until Movie 12 comes out, we probably won't have an answer to that, so for now, Arceus remains only as the Trio Master of the Lake Trio.

:A little late, but this should merged into the legendary trio article. Anyone oppose? [[User:DanPMK|MK]] 03:12, 11 September 2008 (UTC)
::Naw, it's a good article. It could be fleshed out a bit more, and after Movie 12, it will probably be bigger with the Dragon Trio added. I say keep it for now. [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] 03:58, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
:::I agree with Maxim here. The article is inconsistent and attempts to reveal patterns that don’t exist. Lugia definitely isn’t the master of the birds in the games, for example, and Ho‐oh is not the master of the beasts in the anime (AFAIK; bear in mind that I haven’t watched the show in years). The fact that we ''repeat'' Rayquaza really shows that this is just shoehorning. [[Legendary trio]]s this is not. [[User:IIMarckus|IIMarckus]] 22:13, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

==Lake Trio Giratina==
I'm starting to think that the lake trio is led by Giratina. After all, they did ''kinda'' summon him and lead the player to him ''and'' he appears in the fourth lake of Sinnoh. This is purely speculation but so are the others, except the Golems.[[User:Shadow1337|Shadow1337]] 23:57, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

::Possibly, however, it clearly states that Arceus created the Lake Trio himself. [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] 21:18, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

==Isn't Arceus the master of two trios?==
I'm pretty sure he's the master of the Dragon trio too. [[User:Master Lucario|Master Lucario]]
:As {{U|Unown Lord}} said, "''It is one thing to claim that Dialga, Palkia and Giratina constitute a trio, but going as far as suggesting that Arceus created Giratina is simply unfounded and will be avoided until proven in-game.''"--[[Blastoise (Pokémon)|K]][[Gary's Blastoise|kl]][[Blastoise (TCG)|l]][[User:Kkllnn|nn]] [[User Talk:Kkllnn| blastoise]] 22:34, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

== Real History ==

I'm from Portugal and when they distributed Arceus for Diamond, Pearl and Platinum versions they gave me a booklet telling the history. I quote:

''Arceus is regarded as the Pokémon God, the creator of the Pokémon universe''.

''This is a legendary Pokémon, Alpha species and normal type. ''Though, if it have some elemental plates it can be transformed in one of 17 types of Pokémon.'' This is its powerful multi-type ability.''

''The story goes that Arceus was born from an egg in chaos even before the outbreak of the cosmos.''

''Arceus began creating Pokémon to put everything in place. The first thing he did was to create Mew to take account of the universe, this one and Arceus are the Pokémon that accompanied the formation process of the cosmos.''

''Then he had to create Shaymin so that nature arise and to maintain balance. Arceus created Dialga, which in turn gave rise to time, and Palkia, which led to the space. Giratina created to control the death and, if necessary, act as mediator between Dialga and Palkia.''

''After that, it created Jirachi that put the stars on firmament. Once created light, thanks to Jirachi, immediatly Darkrai could be seen in Arceus' shadow. Arceus thought to give a mystic touch to the universe and created Cresselia, the first Pokémon with feelings. This created the moon and, thanks to the feelings, wanted some help and company, so it created the legendary trio formed by Uxie, Mesprit and Azelf and later the Clefairy. This legendary trio was later charged with providing living beings with feelings, like emotion, knowledge and will, basic features that represent each.
'''Welcome to the Pokémon Universe.'''''

That means Arceus created Mew, Shaymin, Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Jirachi and Cresselia. Cresselia created Clefairy, Uxie, Mesprit and Azelf. Darkrai was created by Arceus' shadow.

For people who knows portuguese:

''Arceus é considerado como o Pokémon Deus, criador do universo Pokémon.''

''Trata-se de um Pokémon lendário, da especie Alpha e de tipo Normal. No entanto, se possuir algumas das elemental plates pode transformar-se num dos 17 tipos de Pokémon. esta é a sua poderosa capacidade multi-tipo.''

''Reza a história de que Arceus nasceu de um ovo imerso no caos ainda antes de eclodir o cosmos.''

''Arceus começou a criar Pokémon para colocar tudo no seu lugar. A primeira coisa que fez foi criar Mew para que tomassse conta do universo, pelo que este último e Arceus são os Pokémon que acompanharam o processo de formação do cosmos.''

''Depois teve de criar Shaymin para que a natureza surgisse e para manter o equilibrio. Arceus criou Dialga, que por sua vez deu origem ao tempo, e Palkia, que deu origem ao espaço. Criou Giratina para que controlasse a morte e, se necessário, agisse como mediador entre Dialga e Palkia.''

''Posteriormente criou Jirachi que colocou as estrelas no firmamento. Uma vez criada a luz, graças a Jirachi, imediatamente foi possível ver Darkrai na sombra de Arceus. Arceus pensou dar ao universo um toque místico pelo que criou Cresselia, o primeiro Pokémon com sentimentos. Este criou a lua e, graças aos seu sentimentos, desejou ter ajuda e companhia, pelo que criou o trio lendário formado por Uxie, Mesprit e Azelf e posteriormente os Clefairy, este trio lendário ficou encarregue de mais tarde dotar os seres vivos de sentimentos, como a emoção, a sabedoria e a vontade, cracterísticas básicas que representam cada um dele.''

Probably

the only possible explanation is that nintendo wanted to release this as a surprise goodie to stir things up along with the figures, so they cancelled it in all over world but forgot potugal, so its a company mistake, although that thing revealed alot such as creation of darkrai, one can see the two having some slight resemblance only by the shape of the head (somewhat), and thus arceus and darkrai are somewhat of a duo, somewhat, and some what of a trio if a crescelia is considered, and if so this is the first time that a trio master is part of a trio, but i'm still sceptical, didnt anybody else get such a booklet in portugal??? {{unsigned|Nobody777}}

Here is my quote from the Musketeer's page: "If, as we have noted, Keldeo is not truly part of the trio, and it is (semi) far apart from the others in the Pokedex, wouldn't Keldeo be qualified for Trio Master?

== duo+master=/=trio ==

Doesn't "trio" imply three equal parts?
For example I find it silly that it's the "weather trio" when 2 of them cause weather, and the stronger one neutralizes it (not to mention the dozen other ways Rayquaza is superior to them, including a more intelligent guardian-like role, instead of wreaking havoc). A weather-duo with an anti-weather-guardian would be the right direction. Same for the cloud demons. And the musketeers; if anything Cobalion is at least part of the trio, Keldeo the adoptee is the one whos place in it is in the air for now. But even then, Cobalion being their master, based on its vague role in the family, with nothing else that would make it stick out in any way (unlike Keldeo) is too much. They don't have a master, just a student. Also the word master feels so misleading (it's not like they own or control each other), but.. there is no fitting word for meaningless obvious connections between legendaries that I know of.

I also want to note that the pokemon fanbase is exaggerating the creation myths/legends part of legendary pokemon when it comes to this kind of speculation (which may be what GF were aiming for though XD). The only things that really presents these creatures as supernatural beings with godlike powers, are their myths. The facts are simply that pokemon exist, who are stronger than usual and have some neat abilities (affecting the weather, manipulating dimensions a bit). They don't even show any sign of near human-like intelligence, actually they can happen to get caught into pokeballs by strong trainers and battle for them like usual (unless one considered anime canon, but its kind of hard to take serious when they disregard lots of things from the games and make up just as much own crap as they go along). Think of it that way; in the old times, some people witnessed a legendary like Groudon or Arceus, saw water evaporating wherever it went/saw it call a bunch of Unowns to make an egg or two fall out of the sky, and as they passed the info on, it turned into myth starring Groudon as the landmass god or Arceus as the creator of the universe. Same for the rest. They didn't create anything, they're just very rare/gone/hidden and best at manipulating specific things.

:: Well alright, but what makes the difference between the Regis being a trio with master instead of being a quartet, if not that the three share more similarities between each other than with Regigigas? If the Regis aren't a quartet then Groudon and Kyogre are a duo with a master/guardian (as they have so many similarities while Rayquaza sticks out as superior on multiple levels, even design-wise), same for the Kami. Also at the moment we have no idea what will become of Kyurem and how it really relates to the other 2, but in the current state they're not a trio by that logic (even if Kyurem gets buffed up, itd be a Rayquaza situation in the end).--[[User:Saiph charon|Saiph charon]] 11:03, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:::Rayquaza doesn't really stick out from Groudon and Kyogre to me. They all have something to do with weather (neutralizing weather still involves weather), have similar markings, their movesets are even slightly similar. I can see how the Regis and Regigigas could be a quartet, except that Regigigas came out in a different generation. I feel like that sets it farther apart from the other Regis than Rayquaza is from Groudon and Kyogre. Plus, I find that the reference to Regigigas creating the Regi trio also sets it apart. If it created them, shouldn't it be their master and not part of their group? Like Ho-oh and the Legendary Beasts. These are just my opinions, though.

Black Kyurem and White Kyurem are more "proof" of Ghetsis (and later the player character) ruling over Reshiram/Zekrom than Kyurem doing so.

== Meloetta the Kami Trio's Master ==

We've placed Landorus as the Kami Trio's in house Trio master...but wouldn't Meloetta also fit the bill since it controlled their transformation in the anime, and got them back under control after they went berserk.

I know its just in the anime, but we consider Lugia the bird trio's master and that was in a movie.

'''Evidence:''' Meloetta, like the Kami trio, also has a form change.

Meloetta is needed, at least in the anime, to help the Trio achieve their Therian Forme.

When all three went berserk, it was Meloetta who calmed them, and then changed them back to their Incarnate forme.

The evidence of Meloetta being the true Trio master is piling up. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 22:25, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

But the game doesn't have enough evidence to support that. Plus, they dont share similarities in origin. However, If you look at the base stats, Meloetta does have a base stat equivalent to landorus. However, I dont think there are very concrete evidence that support this. --[[User:Nobody777|Nobody777]] ([[User talk:Nobody777|talk]]) 03:45, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

:: We're not going by the games here; if we were going by the games then Lugia would be completely ousted as the Trio master for the legendary birds since the games have no evidence for it. Lugia's title was granted because of the movie a power of one, just as Meloetta's title should be granted [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 21:01, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

I really think this should be discussed. Meloetta, albeit in the anime only, is definitely fitting for the role. Also as I've mentioned, Lugia got its title from a movie which isn't much different than the anime. Meloetta is needed to call upon the trio to the ruins, transform them into their Therian forms, control them, calm them and turn them back to their Incarnate forms. It also (as pointed out by Nobody777) has the same stat total with other similarities such as gaining atk in their alternate forms.

:This will not be discused, because Trio Masters are dictated by the games' canon. Since it's established in the games that Landorus is the Trio Master, there is no discussion in that regard. In the case of Lugia, there's no mention wether if it is or not, hence, another continuity's canon had to be adopted, since its role in the movie was fitting that of a Master. If the games said otherwise, it would be removed of this list. '''[[User:Hfc2x|hfc]][[User talk:Hfc2x|2X]]''' 09:55, 20 May 2013 (UTC)

== Suggested merge ==

This is a fan term for a phenomenon that's only loosely present in the games, and no explicit connection/comparison between trio masters has (to my knowledge) ever been made in canon, suggesting to me that there is not a pressing need for them to be grouped together in the mainspace. Furthermore, virtually every instance of the subject matter itself is pretty debatable:
* Lugia is a trio master only in the anime
* Ho-Oh is a trio master only in the games
* Rayquaza and Landorus (and Kyurem, if you subscribe to that theory, which is mentioned in Trivia but not in the main body of the page) are already members of their trios, making them not quite fit the pattern
* Regigigas and Arceus are said to have created the trios they're supposedly "trio master" of, but there's otherwise no indication they actually have any sway over them the way other trio masters are supposed to
* The Swords of Justice are properly a quartet, not a trio, and if we're going to single any of them out, it should really be Keldeo since it's the one that ''canon actually does single out as different from the others'' (but more importantly, the Swords canonically don't fit the trio-and-master dynamic to begin with, so they shouldn't be here at all even if the page continues to exist)
So yeah, basically, I don't believe there's any actual canonical justification for this to be a mainspace page. I think we should do what we did with Electric rodents: pare it down to the essentials and use that to expand its section on [[Appendix:Fan terminology]].

:Months ago I brought up the issue for Landorus being given the title despite in the anime Meloetta having actual sway over how they take their other forms and the only response was a juvenile argument backed by no real evidence, and the Lugia evidence manipulated to fit their POV.

:I'm actually more in favor of abolishing this entire article, since it serves no real purpose and is nothing but speculation brought forth through fan head cannon and happenstance evidence weaker than an ounce of instant coffee in a water cooler.

::I agree that this article/concept is too much of fanon. However, like "electric rodents", the concept of a "trio master" is popular enough in fanon that we'll have to document it somehow, but I don't think this quite warrants its own page either. I personally support a merge to the [[Appendix:Fan terminology]], this is the kind of thing that article is for. ''Popular'' fanon should be documented, but not treated like it's an official thing.

== Other 'references' ==

I'm a little unsure about some of the things that appear in the {{DL|Trio master|other references to trio masters}} section. To me, some of them really don't seem like references at all, namely having to purify all of the Shadow Pokémon in Colosseum and having to befriend all 300 Pokémon in the Oblivia Browser in Guardian signs in order to encounter Ho-oh and Lugia, respectively. Yes, in each of these cases the befriending of a legendary trio is required to meet their master, but befriending the trio ''specifically'' is not. The three legendary birds are indeed needed to encounter Lugia in Guardian Signs, but so are 297 other Pokémon. That doesn't seem like much of a reference to me. It's not even like they're the only legendary trio that appear in the Oblivia Browser anyway. This also applies to the legendary golems in Shadows of Almia. I think that these three points should be removed from the page. [[User:Dannyboy601|Dannyboy601]] ([[User talk:Dannyboy601|talk]]) 16:34, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

== Why does this exist? ==

Why has this fanfiction page returned to dominance? It makes no sense to have this on every legendary page and only even begins to make sense by combining sources from difference canon. Lugia is not a "trio master" in the games and it's not a term that's ever even uttered in the anime or manga, any details that this page tells us can be told on the appropriate section of each Pokemons page (such as Lugias relation to the legendary birds in the anime). This is an eyesore on an otherwise factual and accurate wiki and needs to be mass deleted.[[User:Five|Five]] ([[User talk:Five|talk]]) 09:14, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
:I fully agree, but as far as I'm aware this has been brought up before and never gained much traction.

::I disagree, this page is useful in describing a recurring relationship between legendary Pokémon in the games. While I agree that Lugia's inclusion is perhaps questionable, the others are clearly trio masters. Ho-oh resurrected the dogs, regigagas is clearly the master of the regis, arceus created the creation and lake trio, Rayquaza and Landorus are clearly internal leaders. It's clear that whenever there's a trio, there's usually a clear external or internal leader/master/overseer (whatever you want to call them).

:::::Wiki's should always be factual, preferably with supporting evidence.

I can understand the argument that fanon has its place here, but it shouldn't be so prominent in the description for every single legendary. It's misleading, if not completely incorrect.[[User:Five|Five]] ([[User talk:Five|talk]]) 09:32, 22 July 2016 (UTC)
I agree that the page should be deleted.

:I'm really not sure you can call this "fanon". In fact, "fandom" really is more accurate. The only thing that's really not canon is the name "trio master", but that's what the unknown name template is for (and look just how many times it's used on this site). Each "master's" status over the respective trio are supported by canon. This relation between one more powerful Pokémon and a trio (or two others, thus creating a trio) isn't exactly disputable. It's mentioned time and time again, in game after game. [[User:Schiffy|I don't even give a Schif]] ([[User talk:Schiffy|Talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Schiffy|Contribs]]) 22:04, 26 July 2016 (UTC)

:Except the thing here that is truly non-canon is the term itself. Trio Masters are canon that has been made clear on different occasions such as with the weather trio.

== Rather than deleting this page, here's my take... ==

I think this page is necessary, and it already makes it clear that "trio master" is a fan term and not particularly elucidated by the games in every instance. While it can be argued Lugia, Ho-Oh, and Arceus being "trio masters" is fanon due to the fact that they only have very loose, very roundabout in-game associations with their respective trios, it is an established fact that Rayquaza is the master of the weather trio, Regigigas is the master of the titans, and Landorus is the master of the Forces of Nature. Each one of those either keeps the other members of its trio in check or created the members of its trio. Lugia on the other hand was only referenced in the game canon as tied to the legendary birds via Sea Spirit's Den, and otherwise, very much unrelated. Ho-Oh has absolutely nothing to do with the legendary beasts other than reviving them. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the three don't worship it, the three don't follow its commands, nor does anyone make a clear connection between the four. Arceus was the creator of the lake guardians and creation trio, but does that necessarily mean it itself is part of those trios? Like the prior examples, it is otherwise a standalone Pokemon with no common design/type/name themes. I think this page simply needs to be reworked rather than deleting it or considering it in its entirety as fanon.

== The page should stay... ==

I think that the page should stay, but it's only a personal opinion. The page might be mostly fanon, but it still contains a lot of canon information, such as how Arceus created the creation trio. --[[User:AngelicEspeon|AngelicEspeon]] ([[User talk:AngelicEspeon|talk]]) 20:18, 5 February 2017 (UTC)

== Are legendary pokemon mythos not goofy speculations? ==

From the beginning, Legendaries were for fun and challenge. The birds were hard to find, hard to catch. Should these beings not have higher authorities within their worlds? The idea of Mythical Pokémon being seperate from legendaries is mostly fan-founded as well! This page has a place, if only under meta or fandom.

Rolling Fields

}}
The '''Rolling Fields''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|うららか草原|うららかそうげん}}''' ''Splendid Grassland'') are a part of the [[Wild Area]] in the [[Galar]] [[region]], located in the south of the southern portion of the Wild Area. It connects to [[Meetup Spot]] to its south, [[Dappled Grove]] to its west, [[West Lake Axewell]] to its northwest, [[East Lake Axewell]] to its north, and [[South Lake Miloch]] to its northeast.

==Geography==
A vague path slopes downwards from the Rolling Fields' southern access, leading directly north from [[Meetup Spot]] to the shore of Lake Axewell south of its island, [[Axew's Eye]]. Near the end of this path, an {{DL||ingredient seller}} stands under a tree on the lakeshore.

Branching east of the path to Lake Axewell is a largely open area with a ring of [[tall grass]] in its center encircling a Pokémon Den. The east end of this area comes to a cliff overlooking Lake Miloch. Along the cliff wall of the Wild Area south of the encircled den is another den guarded by tall grass, and east along the wall in a corner that overlooks the lake is a third den.

North of the encircled den, the land slopes downward. A den lies in this direction near the shore of Lake Axewell on the west. An obvious path along the Lake Axewell shore leads slightly west into [[East Lake Axewell]] and towards the [[Motostoke]] gate, but a path running along the cliff alongside Lake Miloch leads to down into [[South Lake Miloch]].

West of the path leading from the Meetup Spot towards Axew's Eye is a moderately forested area. A Berry tree and a den lie near the path closer to its southern end. The area near the lakeshore is largely clear of tall grass and trees, and reveals branching pathways to the west. A path mostly hugging the lakeshore leads towards a Pokémon Den and a footbridge across Lake Axewell; shortly beyond the den and before the bridge lies the border to [[West Lake Axewell]]. The branch heading more southerly itself branches again. The wider, northerly path leads towards the lakeshore of the western half of Lake Axewell, while the narrower path further south leads to a nearby den and, further, to a nook in the cliff walls with a second den.

Along the southern lakeshore of the west half of Lake Axewell is {{DL||western grass field|a half-circle of tall grass}}. Inside this half-circle is a den, a smaller patch of grass, and a Berry tree. While other fields of grass in the Rolling Fields have common Pokémon like {{p|Bunnelby}} or {{p|Wingull}}, this field contains {{p|Pancham}} instead. {{p|Diglett}} and {{p|Roggenrola}} can also be found in the open area near the southeast end of this field. Just west of this half-circle lies the [[Dappled Grove]].

==Ingredient seller==
The ingredient seller is located next to a tree, just east of the path from the Meetup Spot.

Each day, his stock is selected randomly from the pool below. He always sells three different {{PDollar}}150 items, two different {{PDollar}}400 items, and one {{PDollar}}950 item.

Villainous team

2020-04-02T22:32:38Z

Mr.GodzillaMan: /* =In the pokemon adventures manga */

{{incomplete|needs=This article needs quite a bit of cleanup, maybe a few images, and needs Team Debonairs and Great Rocket.}}
'''Villainous teams''', referred to officially as '''villainous organizations''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|悪|あく}}の{{tt|組織|きそしき}}''' ''villainous organizations'') or '''sinister organizations''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|敵組織|てきそしき}}''' ''villainous organizations''; officially ''secret teams''), are {{wp|organized crime}} groups which serve as the main antagonists in the storylines of [[Pokémon games]]. Whatever their goals in their respective games, one thing they all have in common is that they plan on achieving their results through the misuse of {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Their names generally follow the pattern '''Team ~''' (Japanese: '''{{j|～団}}''' ''-dan'').

==Comparisons==
Villainous teams in the [[core series]] have many aspects in common. Their structure generally includes, in order of rank, a leader, one or more admins and a number of anonymous grunts. Some teams have additional levels of authority within them, such as [[Team Flare]]'s scientists, as well as additional members and associated individuals who do not fit into the hierarchy at all, such as [[Gladion]], who works with [[Team Skull]].

Aside from {{game|Emerald}}, each core series game has only one team acting in a villainous capacity. Typically, the player character encounters the villainous team many times over the course of their adventure. Typically, they first encounter grunts early in the game, often involved in a small act of villainy unrelated to the team's broader goals. As the player's adventure continues, they meet more of the team's members and uncover more of its secrets and aims, culminating in one or more encounters with the team's boss. Finally, toward the end of the game, the player foils the team's scheme. In most games — with the exception of {{game|Black and White|s}} — this happens before the end of the player's journey to the [[Pokémon League]].

The above refers to the core series games; however, other canons, such as the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, have created very different interpretations of villainous teams.

==Core series==
{{incomplete|section|Manga info of Team Plasma and Team Flare, if any}}
===[[Team Rocket]]===
[[File:HeartGold SoulSilver Team Rocket Grunt.png|thumb|250px|Team Rocket Grunts]]
Team Rocket is the villainous team of the [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] regions. The grunts wear black costumes and have a red "R" as their crest. Many variations of the costume have been seen. Their leader is [[Giovanni]].

====In the games====
In [[Generation I]], Team Rocket often worked to gain money, through methods such as burglary and selling [[Fossil]]s. Their plans culminated in a hostile takeover of the [[Silph Co.]] building in [[Saffron City]]. The gang based their operations in the hidden basement of the [[Celadon Game Corner]].

Initially, [[Giovanni]] was the leader of the [[Viridian Gym]]. After being defeated by {{ga|Red}}/{{ga|Leaf}}, he resigned his position and disappeared to train further. Team Rocket was disbanded at this time, but isolated groups still operated in the [[Sevii Islands]] until they were made aware of Giovanni's departure.

For three years, Team Rocket appeared to be gone completely. However, an underground movement, led by executives from the [[Sevii Islands]], developed in the [[Johto]] region. As usual, it began with crimes committed to earn money, such as selling {{p|Slowpoke}} tails at outrageous prices.

As the Johto Team Rocket grew in size, scientists within the group studied radio waves and how they might be used to control Pokémon. From a former ninja base in [[Mahogany Town]], their experiments affected the {{p|Magikarp}} at the [[Lake of Rage]], causing the Pokémon to evolve unnaturally. Although the experiment was stopped by [[Lance]], Team Rocket soon took over the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]], intending to use its transmitter to affect Pokémon nationwide.

Before putting their plan into action, however, Team Rocket used the tower to instead attempt to contact Giovanni, hoping he would hear their message and return. This gave {{ga|Ethan}}/{{ga|Lyra}} enough time to infiltrate the besieged Goldenrod and defeat Team Rocket's executives, who again disbanded the group. Some time later, a time traveling Ethan/Lyra from the future fought Giovanni while their present-day counterpart watched the fight. Giovanni vanished after the fight, and Ethan/Lyra returned to their time.

====In the anime====
Team Rocket has appeared in almost every episode since [[EP002|the second]], usually as the bumbling trio [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}, though at times {{an|Giovanni}} as well as other members, such as [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]], have appeared. Giovanni made separate attempts to take over [[Kanto]] and [[Unova]], failing both times.

====In the manga====
{{incomplete|section|other manga}}
=====Pokémon Adventures=====
{{main|Team Rocket#In the Pokémon Adventures manga}}
Team Rocket first appear in Pokémon Adventures, when {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Blue}} are pursuing {{p|Mew}} in [[Viridian Forest]]. They are led by {{adv|Giovanni}}, who is portrayed in a much more sinister light than in the anime or games, as with Team Rocket on a whole.

This canon's depiction of Gym Leaders is different from that of the games and anime, who generally depict [[Gym Leader]]s as valiant. In the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}, the three most prominent members of Team Rocket, collectively referred to as the [[Team Rocket Triad]], are [[Koga]], [[Sabrina]] and [[Lt. Surge]]. Like the other villainous trios, two members of the Team Rocket Triad (Sabrina and Lt. Surge) are true to their original calling (though as opposed to the other villainous trios, for them it is being Gym Leaders, not being members of their Team), while one goes his own way, that being Koga.

For a short time, [[Blaine]] worked for Team Rocket, making 5 out of the 8 [[Gym Leader#Indigo League|Kanto Leaders]] Rocket-affiliated at some point in their life.

As in the games, Giovanni later disbands Team Rocket and shuns the Team Rocket Triad, and the four of them go their separate ways. Team Rocket make a brief comeback aboard the S.S. Aqua, but they are on the whole unsuccessful. Later, however, [[Pryce]], under the guise of the [[Masked Man]], reforms Team Rocket for his own uses. At this point, his most prominent members are [[Carl]], [[Sham]], [[Karen]] and [[Will]]. Pryce plans to use Team Rocket to gain control of {{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}} and eventually {{p|Celebi}}, and through that control time in order to save his {{p|Lapras}}'s parents. After {{adv|Gold}} convinces him to cease his villainous ways, he too disbands Team Rocket.

In the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}, Giovanni once again reforms Team Rocket, the most notable members now being the [[Three Beasts]] of Team Rocket. The main aim for Team Rocket is to reunite Giovanni with his son {{adv|Silver}} through the use of {{adv|Deoxys}}. Like the other villainous trios, two of the Beasts remain true to their original calling as Rockets, those being [[Orm]] and [[Sird]], while the other, [[Carr]], goes his own way. In this arc, Silver is intended to inherit Team Rocket, but he instead shuns it.

In the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}, it was revealed that Carr had taken over Team Rocket and gathered the remaining troops together. His reign of power comes to an abrupt end, however, as the organization is then taken over by the four {{tc|Executive|Rocket Executives}}, who intend to gather all the [[Plate]]s and use them to control {{p|Arceus}}. With the unknowing help of Gold, {{adv|Crystal}}, and Silver, the Rocket Executives manage to enter the [[Sinjoh Ruins]], where Arceus recreates {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and {{p|Giratina}}, which [[Archer]] intends to be an invincible army for Giovanni. However, when Giovanni arrives with [[Lance]] and Pryce, it is revealed that the battle of the three [[Legendary Pokémon]] would cause the destruction of both Johto and [[Sinnoh]], as foreseen by Pryce when he was trapped in the time stream. Thanks to Gold opening up to [[Togebo]], Arceus soon calms down the Legendary Pokémon, sending them back to their respective realms. As a reward of his good deed, Celebi then cures Giovanni of his long-time illness, allowing him to return to lead Team Rocket and its rebuilding. Silver still doesn't approve his father's criminal life, intending to stop Team Rocket and convince his father of the error of his ways one day by himself.

===[[Team Aqua]]===
[[File:Omega Ruby Alpha Sapphire Team Aqua Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Aqua Grunts]]
Team Aqua is one of two villainous teams of the [[Hoenn]] region. The grunts wear blue costumes that look like {{wp|pirate}} outfits. They have a skull-and-bones-like "A" as their crest. Their leader is [[Archie]]. Team Aqua tries to expand the ocean and awaken {{p|Kyogre}}.

====In the games====
In [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Sapphire]] (and its remake, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Alpha Sapphire]]), their main goal is to reduce the landmass of the [[Hoenn]] region. They are first encountered in [[Petalburg Woods]] and a grunt is fought. After earning the {{Badge|Stone}}, the same grunt is seen fleeing to the [[Rusturf Tunnel]], and had kidnapped [[Peeko]]. Later, they are seen [[Slateport City]]'s [[Oceanic Museum]], attempting to steal the [[Devon Parts|Devon Goods]] from [[Captain Stern]]. Later, they steal a [[Meteorite]] from [[Professor Cozmo]] in [[Meteor Falls]], and use it to try to cause [[Mt. Chimney]] to become dormant. After being defeated, they aren't seen again until the player reaches the [[Weather Institute]], where a group of grunts led by [[Shelly]] are looking for information about the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Kyogre}} and the weather Pokémon {{p|Castform}}. Soon after, they are seen at [[Mt. Pyre]], and succeed in stealing the [[Red Orb]] (Blue Orb in Alpha Sapphire). They then return to [[Slateport City]] to steal the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] that Captain Stern built. They are seen and fought at their [[Team Aqua Hideout|hideout]] near [[Lilycove City]], which cannot be accessed until after earning the {{Badge|Mind}} in Sapphire, and they then travel to the [[Seafloor Cavern]] with the orb to awaken Kyogre.

In [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Ruby]] and its remake, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby]], they help the player defeat Team Magma.

In {{game|Emerald}}, a single grunt is encountered in [[Petalburg Woods]] with a second encounter ending in [[Rusturf Tunnel]]. As a group, they are first seen at [[Slateport City]]'s [[Oceanic Museum]], attempting to steal the [[Devon Parts|Devon Goods]] from [[Captain Stern]]. At [[Meteor Falls]] they cause [[Team Magma]] to flee. They are seen fighting Team Magma at Mt. Chimney. Later, they are seen again when the player reaches the [[Weather Institute]], where a group of grunts led by [[Shelly]] are looking for information about the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Kyogre}} and the weather Pokémon {{p|Castform}}. Soon after, they are seen at [[Mt. Pyre]], and succeed in stealing the [[Red Orb]]. They then steal the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] that Captain Stern built. They are seen and fought at their [[Team Aqua Hideout|hideout]] near [[Lilycove City]]. After many grunts and [[Aqua Admin Matt|Matt]] are defeated, they are seen traveling to the [[Seafloor Cavern]] with the Red Orb to awaken Kyogre. After defeating many grunts and [[Shelly]], Archie is seen awakening Kyogre, but it flees, and is fought and defeated by the player. Archie and [[Maxie]] are seen in [[Sootopolis City]] until {{p|Rayquaza}} stops the fight between Kyogre and {{p|Groudon}}. After this, the two leaders are seen returning the respective orbs to Mt. Pyre.

====In the anime====
Team Aqua made their first appearance in ''[[AG017|Stairway to Devon]]''.

====In the manga====
=====Pokémon Adventures=====
{{main|Team Aqua#In the Pokémon Adventures manga}}

===[[Team Magma]]===
[[File:Omega Ruby Alpha Sapphire Team Magma Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Magma Grunts]]
Team Magma is one of two villainous teams of the [[Hoenn]] region. The grunts wear red jumpsuit outfits, which have been variously interpreted to look like {{wp|Ninja}} costumes or similar to an imp. They have a stylized "M", appearing like a volcano, as their team's signature crest. Their leader is [[Maxie]]. Team Magma attempts to wake {{p|Groudon}} and expand the land area of the world.

====In the games====
In [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Ruby]] (and its remake, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby]]), their main goal is to increase the landmass of the [[Hoenn]] region. They are first encountered in [[Petalburg Woods]], and a grunt is fought. After earning the {{Badge|Stone}}, the same grunt is seen fleeing to the [[Rusturf Tunnel]] and had kidnapped Peeko. Later, they are encountered at [[Slateport City]]'s [[Oceanic Museum]], attempting to steal the [[Devon Parts|Devon Goods]] from [[Captain Stern]]. Later, they steal a [[Meteorite]] from [[Professor Cozmo]] in [[Meteor Falls]], and use it to try to cause Mt. Chimney to erupt. After being defeated, they aren't seen again until the player reaches the [[Weather Institute]], where a group of grunts led by [[Magma Admin Courtney|Courtney]] in Ruby or [[Tabitha]] in Omega Ruby are looking for information about the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Groudon}} and the weather Pokémon {{p|Castform}}. Soon after, they are seen at [[Mt. Pyre]], and succeed in stealing the [[Blue Orb]] (Red Orb in Omega Ruby). They then steal the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] that Captain Stern built. They are seen and fought at their [[Team Magma Hideout|hideout]] in [[Lilycove City]], which cannot be accessed after earning the {{Badge|Mind}} in Ruby, and they then travel to the [[Seafloor Cavern]] with the orb to awaken Groudon.

In [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Sapphire]] (and its remake, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Alpha Sapphire]]), they help the player defeat Team Aqua.

In {{game|Emerald}}, Team Magma is first seen in Meteor Falls, but flee when [[Archie]] and [[Team Aqua]] appear. Like in Ruby and Omega Ruby, they steal the meteorite. They are first fought at Mt. Chimney, and this is the first time [[Tabitha]] and [[Maxie]] are fought. After fighting Team Aqua, who successfully stole the Red Orb, at Mt. Pyre, the player obtains the [[Magma Emblem]], which was dropped by a grunt when Team Magma stole the Blue Orb, and accesses the [[Magma Hideout (Jagged Pass)|hideout]]. However, in this game, it's located in [[Jagged Pass]] instead of being near Lilycove City in Ruby and Omega Ruby. After defeating many grunts and Tabitha, the player witnesses Maxie awaken Groudon, but it flees, and they then fight Maxie for the second time. After earning the Mind Badge, they are fought at the [[Mossdeep Space Center]] for the last time. After defeating a few grunts, the player teams up with [[Steven Stone]] and defeat Maxie and Tabitha in a Double Battle. They are also seen after Archie awakens Kyogre in the Seafloor Cavern and is defeated by the player. The two leaders are in [[Sootopolis City]] until {{p|Rayquaza}} stops the fight between Kyogre and Groudon. After that, they are seen returning the respective orbs to Mt. Pyre.

====In the anime====
Team Magma made their first appearance in ''[[AG002|A Ruin with a View]]''.

===[[Team Galactic]]===
[[File:Diamond Pearl Team Galactic Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Galactic Grunts]]
Team Galactic is the villainous team of the [[Sinnoh]] region. Galactic Grunts wear black and white jumpsuits that vaguely resemble spacesuits and wear their hair in teal bowl cuts. Their leader is [[Cyrus]], who wishes to create a new universe by awakening {{p|Dialga}} and{{tt|*|Pokémon Platinum Version}}/or{{tt|*|Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Versions}} {{p|Palkia}}. Their team's crest is a stylized letter "G" (possibly resembling a spiral galaxy). Whereas the other teams usually have large logos on their uniforms, Team Galactic's logos are small, being barely visible on their battle sprites.

====In the games====
In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, Cyrus wishes to recreate the {{pkmn|universe}} in his image with the powers of {{p|Dialga}} or {{p|Palkia}}. In {{game|Platinum}}, the leader is still Cyrus, but this time, he tries to summon both Dialga and Palkia to create a world without spirit. In Platinum, [[Charon]] is also present.

In Platinum, once the player has access to [[Stark Mountain]], [[Mars]] and [[Jupiter]] are seen at Stark Mountain with Charon attempting to use the power of {{p|Heatran}}, but after being defeated, they leave the team, and Charon is arrested, leaving [[Saturn]] as the only Team Galactic Commander still part of the team.

====In the anime====
[[Saturn]], along with two grunts, appeared in ''[[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence!]]'', though it was just a brief cameo at the end of the episode. Here, they commissioned Team Rocket to steal the [[Adamant Orb]] and frame [[Nando]] for the crime. At the end, Team Galactic commented that Team Rocket did a lousy job at it. This was not revealed until their next appearance, ''[[DP060|Journey to the Unown!]]''. Saturn tried to locate the {{p|Unown}} and control them using a cube with an {{p|Arceus}} pattern. [[Cyrus]], [[Mars]], and [[Jupiter]] later appeared in ''[[DP096|Losing Its Lustrous]]'' and ''[[DP097|Double Team Turnover!]]'' with Saturn.

====In the manga====
=====Pokémon Adventures=====
{{main|Team Galactic#In the Pokémon Adventures manga}}

=====Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!=====
Like in the games, the team is led by [[Cyrus]]. The team essentially has the same goal as in the games, but it was possible that the {{tc|Commander}}s did not know about the absolute plan of their leader, since Mars was shocked when Cyrus revealed that his ultimate goal was to create the universe and all of its life fully anew. [[Hareta]], with the help of [[Mitsumi]], a former member, and the Gym Leaders, managed to stop him. Later, [[Charon]] became the new leader and tried to capture {{p|Heatran}}. [[Mars]] and [[Jupiter]] left on a search to find Cyrus and were treated as deserters.

One of the most distinctive characters of the team is [[B-2]], a grunt who has swollen buttocks due to Hareta biting him when they first met.

===[[Team Plasma]]===
[[File:Black White Team Plasma Grunts.png|thumb|left|250px|Team Plasma Grunts as they appear in Black and White]]
[[File:Black 2 White 2 Team Plasma Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Plasma Grunts as they appear in Black 2 and White 2]]
Team Plasma is the villainous team of the [[Unova]] region. Originally, the grunts wore a costume that resembles a {{wp|knight}}'s armor, while the [[Seven Sages]] wore robes. Their objective is to separate [[human]]ity from Pokémon. Their leader is [[N]], although the team is being used to further the goals of his adopted father, [[Ghetsis]]. After this is discovered, the members of Team Plasma that support Ghetsis change their uniform to be more similar to pirates, while those that support N remain in the old uniform. Their crest is the letters P and Z combined together, looking like the {{wp|Chi Rho}}.

====In the games====
Team Plasma appears in various locations. In {{game|Black and White|s}}, their leader, N, is encountered very early in the game and is battled in many of Team Plasma's appearances. Eventually, N is able to gain control of {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W}}, and defeats the champion [[Alder]]. After the player captures the other [[Legendary Pokémon]] and defeats N, Ghetsis reveals his true plans, battling the hero himself. After his defeat and arrest, [[Looker]] will ask the player to help him round up the remaining [[Seven Sages|Sages]].

In {{game|Black and White|s|4=2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2}}, Team Plasma has split into two different factions. One of the factions consists of the few members of Team Plasma that are still loyal to N. The other faction, known as the new Team Plasma, is led by [[Colress]]. This faction is not attempting to release Pokémon, but instead take over Unova. They intend to accomplish this new goal by freezing the region and stealing all of the region's Pokémon. Having escaped from custody, Ghetsis once again reveals himself to be the true mastermind behind Team Plasma's actions.

The reformed members and N help the player against new Team Plasma, culminating in the defeat of Colress and Ghetsis — the latter controlling {{p|Kyurem}}. Following this, Colress officially disbands Team Plasma, retiring to [[P2 Laboratory]]. Ghetsis, having snapped and lost heart upon seeing his plans foiled, is taken away by the [[Shadow Triad]], never to be seen again.

====In the anime====
Team Plasma's [[BW023 (unaired)|debut]] [[BW024 (unaired)|episodes]] were postponed due to the {{wp|Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami}} in Japan and were later retconned out of continuity. Their proper debut was in the ''[[Best Wishes series|Best Wishes Season 2: Episode N]]'' arc, but in their new outfits.

N debuted at the end of ''[[BW109|New Places... Familiar Faces!]]'' and was properly introduced in the [[BW110|next episode]]. Colress, with some other [[Team Plasma Grunt (Trainer class)|grunts]], first appeared in ''[[BW112|Team Plasma's Pokémon Power Plot!]]'' experimenting with wild Pokémon. Ghetsis made his proper appearance  in ''[[BW117|Team Plasma's Pokémon Manipulation!]]''. [[Anthea and Concordia]] made their debut at the end of the episode rescuing N from Team Plasma. The Seven Sages appeared in a flashback in ''[[BW118|Secrets From Out of the Fog!]]''. Like in the [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|games]], Team Plasma's plan is to use the strength of Pokémon and use it to take over the [[Unova]] region.

=====Pokémon Adventures=====
{{main|Team Plasma#In the Pokémon Adventures manga}}

===[[Team Flare]]===
[[File:XY Team Flare Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Flare Grunts]]
Team Flare is the villainous team of the Kalos region. The grunts' uniform is a mafia styled red suit, while Admins wear more stylized white suits and Scientists wear red suits of varying designs. Their symbol is a flaming letter F.

====In the games====
At first, Team Flare's goal is claimed to be making the world "beautiful" with style and lots of money. Despite their claims, several grunts and even their leader [[Lysandre]] confirm that they seek a world benefiting only those within Team Flare, disregarding anybody else. Team Flare attempted to make money by stealing and selling [[Fossil]]s. They also siphoned energy from the [[Kalos Power Plant]], and later on stole [[Poké Ball]]s from the [[Poké Ball Factory]].

It is eventually revealed that Team Flare's true plan is to use the ancient Ultimate Weapon in order to obliterate all life except themselves and start anew, as Lysandre no longer sees a bright future for the current society — which, in his words, has grown to an unsustainable level and is doomed by "unproductive fools" consuming the planet's limited resources. At this point, it is explained that all their actions were preparations to this goal: the energy from the Power Plant was needed to reactivate the weapon, and the large number of Pokémon was needed to feed it, as it is powered by their life energies.

After the player has defeated the Elite Four and the Champion, the player is tasked by [[Looker]] to help him solve a series of crimes related to a person known as [[Emma|Essentia]], which would be revealed to be the result of experiments by [[Xerosic]], one of Team Flare's scientists.

====In the anime====
The first appearance of a Team Flare member was in ''[[XYS01|Mega Evolution Special I]]'', where Lysandre made an appearance at Lysandre Labs, monitoring the Mega Evolution energy [[Alain]] had accumulated. He appears again in ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', where he interrupted Alain and {{Steven}}'s battle.

In the anime, Team Flare hatches a plan to capture the [[Legendary Pokémon]], {{p|Zygarde}}, which is first revealed in ''[[XY094|From A to Z!]]''. However, they fail in doing so as it escapes. The team are after two of the Zygarde Cores, code-named [[Squishy|Z1]] and [[Z2]]. In ''[[XY102|Meeting at Terminus Cave!]]'', Team Flare were able to locate Z2 while it and Z1 were communicating, and Mable and Aliana proceeded to go after Z2. After discovering that Z1 had joined {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}, they began following the group to capture it, and were seen on numerous occasions. Team Flare Admins, along with [[Xerosic]], began their experiments on an island using the power of Zygarde Cells to mutate trees, which Xerosic declared was a success. Locating Z2, Aliana and Mable, along with Team Flare Grunts, were able to capture Z2 with the help of [[Alain]] and his {{TP|Alain|Charizard}}, allowing Xerosic to later experiment on it.

In ''[[XY129|Kalos League Passion with a Certain Flare!]]'', on the night before the [[Lumiose Conference]]'s final round, Team Flare, reaching the final stages of their plan, made their way to the [[Prism Tower]] to begin setting up their equipment. At the end of ''[[XY131|Down to the Fiery Finish!]]'', Lysandre arrived at Prism Tower and ordered Z2 to show him its power as he put his plan into motion. In ''[[XY132|A Towering Takeover!]]'', Lysandre televised a message to the citizens of Kalos, describing his plan to create a new, beautiful world by destroying the one they currently live in. Team Flare's plot was ultimately foiled in ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]'', after Z2 was freed from its control and Team Flare's [[Giant Rock]] destroyed. Lysandre's fate was unclear after he was engulfed in the same explosion that destroyed the Giant Rock, while the other members were eventually arrested.

===[[Team Skull]]===
[[File:Sun Moon Team Skull Grunt.png|thumb|250px|Team Skull Grunts]]
Team Skull is the primary villainous team of the [[Alola]] region. The grunts' black-and-white uniforms are inspired by street gangs, and consist of sneakers, shorts, wrist bands, tank tops, bandannas used to cover the lower face, and berets that resemble the tops of skulls. Their symbol is a stylized letter S in the shape of a skull, which is worn as a medallion.

====In the games====
Team Skull's intentions are to simply make enough money to survive. They have a history of disrupting [[island challenge]] events. The team's leader, [[Guzma]], once attempted the island challenge and failed. He is acquainted with [[Professor Kukui]]. [[Plumeria]], an Admin, is considered the "big sister" of the team and cares for the grunts, calling them her "cute, dumb brothers and sisters". It is eventually revealed by some of their members that the organization is composed of other people who also failed their island challenge. Their enforcer, [[Gladion]], is the son of Aether President [[Lusamine]] and joined their team to become stronger, though the grunts do not consider him a real member of their team. Their base is located in [[Po Town]].

====In the anime====
Team Skull debuted in ''[[SM001|Alola to New Adventure!]]'', where three of their grunts, [[Tupp]], [[Zipp]], and [[Rapp]], challenged [[Kiawe]] to a Pokémon battle, threatening to steal his {{p|Charizard}}. {{Ash}} and {{an|Kiawe}} teamed up to defeat the grunts, with Kiawe defeating all of the grunts' Pokémon with his {{TP|Kiawe|Turtonator}}'s Z-Move. Since then, they have made semi-regular appearances in the {{series|Sun & Moon}}, especially Tupp, Zipp, and Rapp.

Many of their clothing articles are ripped/torn or embellished with spikes and studs. The grunts also wear face paint and dyed or painted hair. Their symbol is a stylized, upside-down Y, forming an eye tattoo or a claw, though it also closely resembles their signature Y-shaped {{wp|vuvuzela}}.

====In the games====
Team Yell's intentions are similar to Team Skull's, as they also have a history of disrupting events. They are devoted fans of [[Marnie]].

Villainous team

2020-04-02T22:31:54Z

Mr.GodzillaMan: /* In the manga */

{{incomplete|needs=This article needs quite a bit of cleanup, maybe a few images, and needs Team Debonairs and Great Rocket.}}
'''Villainous teams''', referred to officially as '''villainous organizations''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|悪|あく}}の{{tt|組織|きそしき}}''' ''villainous organizations'') or '''sinister organizations''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|敵組織|てきそしき}}''' ''villainous organizations''; officially ''secret teams''), are {{wp|organized crime}} groups which serve as the main antagonists in the storylines of [[Pokémon games]]. Whatever their goals in their respective games, one thing they all have in common is that they plan on achieving their results through the misuse of {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Their names generally follow the pattern '''Team ~''' (Japanese: '''{{j|～団}}''' ''-dan'').

==Comparisons==
Villainous teams in the [[core series]] have many aspects in common. Their structure generally includes, in order of rank, a leader, one or more admins and a number of anonymous grunts. Some teams have additional levels of authority within them, such as [[Team Flare]]'s scientists, as well as additional members and associated individuals who do not fit into the hierarchy at all, such as [[Gladion]], who works with [[Team Skull]].

Aside from {{game|Emerald}}, each core series game has only one team acting in a villainous capacity. Typically, the player character encounters the villainous team many times over the course of their adventure. Typically, they first encounter grunts early in the game, often involved in a small act of villainy unrelated to the team's broader goals. As the player's adventure continues, they meet more of the team's members and uncover more of its secrets and aims, culminating in one or more encounters with the team's boss. Finally, toward the end of the game, the player foils the team's scheme. In most games — with the exception of {{game|Black and White|s}} — this happens before the end of the player's journey to the [[Pokémon League]].

The above refers to the core series games; however, other canons, such as the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, have created very different interpretations of villainous teams.

==Core series==
{{incomplete|section|Manga info of Team Plasma and Team Flare, if any}}
===[[Team Rocket]]===
[[File:HeartGold SoulSilver Team Rocket Grunt.png|thumb|250px|Team Rocket Grunts]]
Team Rocket is the villainous team of the [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] regions. The grunts wear black costumes and have a red "R" as their crest. Many variations of the costume have been seen. Their leader is [[Giovanni]].

====In the games====
In [[Generation I]], Team Rocket often worked to gain money, through methods such as burglary and selling [[Fossil]]s. Their plans culminated in a hostile takeover of the [[Silph Co.]] building in [[Saffron City]]. The gang based their operations in the hidden basement of the [[Celadon Game Corner]].

Initially, [[Giovanni]] was the leader of the [[Viridian Gym]]. After being defeated by {{ga|Red}}/{{ga|Leaf}}, he resigned his position and disappeared to train further. Team Rocket was disbanded at this time, but isolated groups still operated in the [[Sevii Islands]] until they were made aware of Giovanni's departure.

For three years, Team Rocket appeared to be gone completely. However, an underground movement, led by executives from the [[Sevii Islands]], developed in the [[Johto]] region. As usual, it began with crimes committed to earn money, such as selling {{p|Slowpoke}} tails at outrageous prices.

As the Johto Team Rocket grew in size, scientists within the group studied radio waves and how they might be used to control Pokémon. From a former ninja base in [[Mahogany Town]], their experiments affected the {{p|Magikarp}} at the [[Lake of Rage]], causing the Pokémon to evolve unnaturally. Although the experiment was stopped by [[Lance]], Team Rocket soon took over the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]], intending to use its transmitter to affect Pokémon nationwide.

Before putting their plan into action, however, Team Rocket used the tower to instead attempt to contact Giovanni, hoping he would hear their message and return. This gave {{ga|Ethan}}/{{ga|Lyra}} enough time to infiltrate the besieged Goldenrod and defeat Team Rocket's executives, who again disbanded the group. Some time later, a time traveling Ethan/Lyra from the future fought Giovanni while their present-day counterpart watched the fight. Giovanni vanished after the fight, and Ethan/Lyra returned to their time.

====In the anime====
Team Rocket has appeared in almost every episode since [[EP002|the second]], usually as the bumbling trio [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}, though at times {{an|Giovanni}} as well as other members, such as [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]], have appeared. Giovanni made separate attempts to take over [[Kanto]] and [[Unova]], failing both times.

====In the manga====
{{incomplete|section|other manga}}
=====Pokémon Adventures=====
{{main|Team Rocket#In the Pokémon Adventures manga}}
Team Rocket first appear in Pokémon Adventures, when {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Blue}} are pursuing {{p|Mew}} in [[Viridian Forest]]. They are led by {{adv|Giovanni}}, who is portrayed in a much more sinister light than in the anime or games, as with Team Rocket on a whole.

This canon's depiction of Gym Leaders is different from that of the games and anime, who generally depict [[Gym Leader]]s as valiant. In the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}, the three most prominent members of Team Rocket, collectively referred to as the [[Team Rocket Triad]], are [[Koga]], [[Sabrina]] and [[Lt. Surge]]. Like the other villainous trios, two members of the Team Rocket Triad (Sabrina and Lt. Surge) are true to their original calling (though as opposed to the other villainous trios, for them it is being Gym Leaders, not being members of their Team), while one goes his own way, that being Koga.

For a short time, [[Blaine]] worked for Team Rocket, making 5 out of the 8 [[Gym Leader#Indigo League|Kanto Leaders]] Rocket-affiliated at some point in their life.

As in the games, Giovanni later disbands Team Rocket and shuns the Team Rocket Triad, and the four of them go their separate ways. Team Rocket make a brief comeback aboard the S.S. Aqua, but they are on the whole unsuccessful. Later, however, [[Pryce]], under the guise of the [[Masked Man]], reforms Team Rocket for his own uses. At this point, his most prominent members are [[Carl]], [[Sham]], [[Karen]] and [[Will]]. Pryce plans to use Team Rocket to gain control of {{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}} and eventually {{p|Celebi}}, and through that control time in order to save his {{p|Lapras}}'s parents. After {{adv|Gold}} convinces him to cease his villainous ways, he too disbands Team Rocket.

In the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}, Giovanni once again reforms Team Rocket, the most notable members now being the [[Three Beasts]] of Team Rocket. The main aim for Team Rocket is to reunite Giovanni with his son {{adv|Silver}} through the use of {{adv|Deoxys}}. Like the other villainous trios, two of the Beasts remain true to their original calling as Rockets, those being [[Orm]] and [[Sird]], while the other, [[Carr]], goes his own way. In this arc, Silver is intended to inherit Team Rocket, but he instead shuns it.

In the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}, it was revealed that Carr had taken over Team Rocket and gathered the remaining troops together. His reign of power comes to an abrupt end, however, as the organization is then taken over by the four {{tc|Executive|Rocket Executives}}, who intend to gather all the [[Plate]]s and use them to control {{p|Arceus}}. With the unknowing help of Gold, {{adv|Crystal}}, and Silver, the Rocket Executives manage to enter the [[Sinjoh Ruins]], where Arceus recreates {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and {{p|Giratina}}, which [[Archer]] intends to be an invincible army for Giovanni. However, when Giovanni arrives with [[Lance]] and Pryce, it is revealed that the battle of the three [[Legendary Pokémon]] would cause the destruction of both Johto and [[Sinnoh]], as foreseen by Pryce when he was trapped in the time stream. Thanks to Gold opening up to [[Togebo]], Arceus soon calms down the Legendary Pokémon, sending them back to their respective realms. As a reward of his good deed, Celebi then cures Giovanni of his long-time illness, allowing him to return to lead Team Rocket and its rebuilding. Silver still doesn't approve his father's criminal life, intending to stop Team Rocket and convince his father of the error of his ways one day by himself.

===[[Team Aqua]]===
[[File:Omega Ruby Alpha Sapphire Team Aqua Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Aqua Grunts]]
Team Aqua is one of two villainous teams of the [[Hoenn]] region. The grunts wear blue costumes that look like {{wp|pirate}} outfits. They have a skull-and-bones-like "A" as their crest. Their leader is [[Archie]]. Team Aqua tries to expand the ocean and awaken {{p|Kyogre}}.

====In the games====
In [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Sapphire]] (and its remake, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Alpha Sapphire]]), their main goal is to reduce the landmass of the [[Hoenn]] region. They are first encountered in [[Petalburg Woods]] and a grunt is fought. After earning the {{Badge|Stone}}, the same grunt is seen fleeing to the [[Rusturf Tunnel]], and had kidnapped [[Peeko]]. Later, they are seen [[Slateport City]]'s [[Oceanic Museum]], attempting to steal the [[Devon Parts|Devon Goods]] from [[Captain Stern]]. Later, they steal a [[Meteorite]] from [[Professor Cozmo]] in [[Meteor Falls]], and use it to try to cause [[Mt. Chimney]] to become dormant. After being defeated, they aren't seen again until the player reaches the [[Weather Institute]], where a group of grunts led by [[Shelly]] are looking for information about the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Kyogre}} and the weather Pokémon {{p|Castform}}. Soon after, they are seen at [[Mt. Pyre]], and succeed in stealing the [[Red Orb]] (Blue Orb in Alpha Sapphire). They then return to [[Slateport City]] to steal the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] that Captain Stern built. They are seen and fought at their [[Team Aqua Hideout|hideout]] near [[Lilycove City]], which cannot be accessed until after earning the {{Badge|Mind}} in Sapphire, and they then travel to the [[Seafloor Cavern]] with the orb to awaken Kyogre.

In [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Ruby]] and its remake, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby]], they help the player defeat Team Magma.

In {{game|Emerald}}, a single grunt is encountered in [[Petalburg Woods]] with a second encounter ending in [[Rusturf Tunnel]]. As a group, they are first seen at [[Slateport City]]'s [[Oceanic Museum]], attempting to steal the [[Devon Parts|Devon Goods]] from [[Captain Stern]]. At [[Meteor Falls]] they cause [[Team Magma]] to flee. They are seen fighting Team Magma at Mt. Chimney. Later, they are seen again when the player reaches the [[Weather Institute]], where a group of grunts led by [[Shelly]] are looking for information about the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Kyogre}} and the weather Pokémon {{p|Castform}}. Soon after, they are seen at [[Mt. Pyre]], and succeed in stealing the [[Red Orb]]. They then steal the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] that Captain Stern built. They are seen and fought at their [[Team Aqua Hideout|hideout]] near [[Lilycove City]]. After many grunts and [[Aqua Admin Matt|Matt]] are defeated, they are seen traveling to the [[Seafloor Cavern]] with the Red Orb to awaken Kyogre. After defeating many grunts and [[Shelly]], Archie is seen awakening Kyogre, but it flees, and is fought and defeated by the player. Archie and [[Maxie]] are seen in [[Sootopolis City]] until {{p|Rayquaza}} stops the fight between Kyogre and {{p|Groudon}}. After this, the two leaders are seen returning the respective orbs to Mt. Pyre.

====In the anime====
Team Aqua made their first appearance in ''[[AG017|Stairway to Devon]]''.

===[[Team Magma]]===
[[File:Omega Ruby Alpha Sapphire Team Magma Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Magma Grunts]]
Team Magma is one of two villainous teams of the [[Hoenn]] region. The grunts wear red jumpsuit outfits, which have been variously interpreted to look like {{wp|Ninja}} costumes or similar to an imp. They have a stylized "M", appearing like a volcano, as their team's signature crest. Their leader is [[Maxie]]. Team Magma attempts to wake {{p|Groudon}} and expand the land area of the world.

====In the games====
In [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Ruby]] (and its remake, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby]]), their main goal is to increase the landmass of the [[Hoenn]] region. They are first encountered in [[Petalburg Woods]], and a grunt is fought. After earning the {{Badge|Stone}}, the same grunt is seen fleeing to the [[Rusturf Tunnel]] and had kidnapped Peeko. Later, they are encountered at [[Slateport City]]'s [[Oceanic Museum]], attempting to steal the [[Devon Parts|Devon Goods]] from [[Captain Stern]]. Later, they steal a [[Meteorite]] from [[Professor Cozmo]] in [[Meteor Falls]], and use it to try to cause Mt. Chimney to erupt. After being defeated, they aren't seen again until the player reaches the [[Weather Institute]], where a group of grunts led by [[Magma Admin Courtney|Courtney]] in Ruby or [[Tabitha]] in Omega Ruby are looking for information about the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Groudon}} and the weather Pokémon {{p|Castform}}. Soon after, they are seen at [[Mt. Pyre]], and succeed in stealing the [[Blue Orb]] (Red Orb in Omega Ruby). They then steal the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] that Captain Stern built. They are seen and fought at their [[Team Magma Hideout|hideout]] in [[Lilycove City]], which cannot be accessed after earning the {{Badge|Mind}} in Ruby, and they then travel to the [[Seafloor Cavern]] with the orb to awaken Groudon.

In [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Sapphire]] (and its remake, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Alpha Sapphire]]), they help the player defeat Team Aqua.

In {{game|Emerald}}, Team Magma is first seen in Meteor Falls, but flee when [[Archie]] and [[Team Aqua]] appear. Like in Ruby and Omega Ruby, they steal the meteorite. They are first fought at Mt. Chimney, and this is the first time [[Tabitha]] and [[Maxie]] are fought. After fighting Team Aqua, who successfully stole the Red Orb, at Mt. Pyre, the player obtains the [[Magma Emblem]], which was dropped by a grunt when Team Magma stole the Blue Orb, and accesses the [[Magma Hideout (Jagged Pass)|hideout]]. However, in this game, it's located in [[Jagged Pass]] instead of being near Lilycove City in Ruby and Omega Ruby. After defeating many grunts and Tabitha, the player witnesses Maxie awaken Groudon, but it flees, and they then fight Maxie for the second time. After earning the Mind Badge, they are fought at the [[Mossdeep Space Center]] for the last time. After defeating a few grunts, the player teams up with [[Steven Stone]] and defeat Maxie and Tabitha in a Double Battle. They are also seen after Archie awakens Kyogre in the Seafloor Cavern and is defeated by the player. The two leaders are in [[Sootopolis City]] until {{p|Rayquaza}} stops the fight between Kyogre and Groudon. After that, they are seen returning the respective orbs to Mt. Pyre.

====In the anime====
Team Magma made their first appearance in ''[[AG002|A Ruin with a View]]''.

===[[Team Galactic]]===
[[File:Diamond Pearl Team Galactic Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Galactic Grunts]]
Team Galactic is the villainous team of the [[Sinnoh]] region. Galactic Grunts wear black and white jumpsuits that vaguely resemble spacesuits and wear their hair in teal bowl cuts. Their leader is [[Cyrus]], who wishes to create a new universe by awakening {{p|Dialga}} and{{tt|*|Pokémon Platinum Version}}/or{{tt|*|Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Versions}} {{p|Palkia}}. Their team's crest is a stylized letter "G" (possibly resembling a spiral galaxy). Whereas the other teams usually have large logos on their uniforms, Team Galactic's logos are small, being barely visible on their battle sprites.

====In the games====
In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, Cyrus wishes to recreate the {{pkmn|universe}} in his image with the powers of {{p|Dialga}} or {{p|Palkia}}. In {{game|Platinum}}, the leader is still Cyrus, but this time, he tries to summon both Dialga and Palkia to create a world without spirit. In Platinum, [[Charon]] is also present.

In Platinum, once the player has access to [[Stark Mountain]], [[Mars]] and [[Jupiter]] are seen at Stark Mountain with Charon attempting to use the power of {{p|Heatran}}, but after being defeated, they leave the team, and Charon is arrested, leaving [[Saturn]] as the only Team Galactic Commander still part of the team.

====In the anime====
[[Saturn]], along with two grunts, appeared in ''[[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence!]]'', though it was just a brief cameo at the end of the episode. Here, they commissioned Team Rocket to steal the [[Adamant Orb]] and frame [[Nando]] for the crime. At the end, Team Galactic commented that Team Rocket did a lousy job at it. This was not revealed until their next appearance, ''[[DP060|Journey to the Unown!]]''. Saturn tried to locate the {{p|Unown}} and control them using a cube with an {{p|Arceus}} pattern. [[Cyrus]], [[Mars]], and [[Jupiter]] later appeared in ''[[DP096|Losing Its Lustrous]]'' and ''[[DP097|Double Team Turnover!]]'' with Saturn.

====In the manga====
=====Pokémon Adventures=====
{{main|Team Galactic#In the Pokémon Adventures manga}}

=====Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!=====
Like in the games, the team is led by [[Cyrus]]. The team essentially has the same goal as in the games, but it was possible that the {{tc|Commander}}s did not know about the absolute plan of their leader, since Mars was shocked when Cyrus revealed that his ultimate goal was to create the universe and all of its life fully anew. [[Hareta]], with the help of [[Mitsumi]], a former member, and the Gym Leaders, managed to stop him. Later, [[Charon]] became the new leader and tried to capture {{p|Heatran}}. [[Mars]] and [[Jupiter]] left on a search to find Cyrus and were treated as deserters.

One of the most distinctive characters of the team is [[B-2]], a grunt who has swollen buttocks due to Hareta biting him when they first met.

===[[Team Plasma]]===
[[File:Black White Team Plasma Grunts.png|thumb|left|250px|Team Plasma Grunts as they appear in Black and White]]
[[File:Black 2 White 2 Team Plasma Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Plasma Grunts as they appear in Black 2 and White 2]]
Team Plasma is the villainous team of the [[Unova]] region. Originally, the grunts wore a costume that resembles a {{wp|knight}}'s armor, while the [[Seven Sages]] wore robes. Their objective is to separate [[human]]ity from Pokémon. Their leader is [[N]], although the team is being used to further the goals of his adopted father, [[Ghetsis]]. After this is discovered, the members of Team Plasma that support Ghetsis change their uniform to be more similar to pirates, while those that support N remain in the old uniform. Their crest is the letters P and Z combined together, looking like the {{wp|Chi Rho}}.

====In the games====
Team Plasma appears in various locations. In {{game|Black and White|s}}, their leader, N, is encountered very early in the game and is battled in many of Team Plasma's appearances. Eventually, N is able to gain control of {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W}}, and defeats the champion [[Alder]]. After the player captures the other [[Legendary Pokémon]] and defeats N, Ghetsis reveals his true plans, battling the hero himself. After his defeat and arrest, [[Looker]] will ask the player to help him round up the remaining [[Seven Sages|Sages]].

In {{game|Black and White|s|4=2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2}}, Team Plasma has split into two different factions. One of the factions consists of the few members of Team Plasma that are still loyal to N. The other faction, known as the new Team Plasma, is led by [[Colress]]. This faction is not attempting to release Pokémon, but instead take over Unova. They intend to accomplish this new goal by freezing the region and stealing all of the region's Pokémon. Having escaped from custody, Ghetsis once again reveals himself to be the true mastermind behind Team Plasma's actions.

The reformed members and N help the player against new Team Plasma, culminating in the defeat of Colress and Ghetsis — the latter controlling {{p|Kyurem}}. Following this, Colress officially disbands Team Plasma, retiring to [[P2 Laboratory]]. Ghetsis, having snapped and lost heart upon seeing his plans foiled, is taken away by the [[Shadow Triad]], never to be seen again.

====In the anime====
Team Plasma's [[BW023 (unaired)|debut]] [[BW024 (unaired)|episodes]] were postponed due to the {{wp|Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami}} in Japan and were later retconned out of continuity. Their proper debut was in the ''[[Best Wishes series|Best Wishes Season 2: Episode N]]'' arc, but in their new outfits.

N debuted at the end of ''[[BW109|New Places... Familiar Faces!]]'' and was properly introduced in the [[BW110|next episode]]. Colress, with some other [[Team Plasma Grunt (Trainer class)|grunts]], first appeared in ''[[BW112|Team Plasma's Pokémon Power Plot!]]'' experimenting with wild Pokémon. Ghetsis made his proper appearance  in ''[[BW117|Team Plasma's Pokémon Manipulation!]]''. [[Anthea and Concordia]] made their debut at the end of the episode rescuing N from Team Plasma. The Seven Sages appeared in a flashback in ''[[BW118|Secrets From Out of the Fog!]]''. Like in the [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|games]], Team Plasma's plan is to use the strength of Pokémon and use it to take over the [[Unova]] region.

====In the manga====
=====Pokémon Adventures=====
{{main|Team Plasma#In the Pokémon Adventures manga}}

===[[Team Flare]]===
[[File:XY Team Flare Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Flare Grunts]]
Team Flare is the villainous team of the Kalos region. The grunts' uniform is a mafia styled red suit, while Admins wear more stylized white suits and Scientists wear red suits of varying designs. Their symbol is a flaming letter F.

====In the games====
At first, Team Flare's goal is claimed to be making the world "beautiful" with style and lots of money. Despite their claims, several grunts and even their leader [[Lysandre]] confirm that they seek a world benefiting only those within Team Flare, disregarding anybody else. Team Flare attempted to make money by stealing and selling [[Fossil]]s. They also siphoned energy from the [[Kalos Power Plant]], and later on stole [[Poké Ball]]s from the [[Poké Ball Factory]].

It is eventually revealed that Team Flare's true plan is to use the ancient Ultimate Weapon in order to obliterate all life except themselves and start anew, as Lysandre no longer sees a bright future for the current society — which, in his words, has grown to an unsustainable level and is doomed by "unproductive fools" consuming the planet's limited resources. At this point, it is explained that all their actions were preparations to this goal: the energy from the Power Plant was needed to reactivate the weapon, and the large number of Pokémon was needed to feed it, as it is powered by their life energies.

After the player has defeated the Elite Four and the Champion, the player is tasked by [[Looker]] to help him solve a series of crimes related to a person known as [[Emma|Essentia]], which would be revealed to be the result of experiments by [[Xerosic]], one of Team Flare's scientists.

====In the anime====
The first appearance of a Team Flare member was in ''[[XYS01|Mega Evolution Special I]]'', where Lysandre made an appearance at Lysandre Labs, monitoring the Mega Evolution energy [[Alain]] had accumulated. He appears again in ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', where he interrupted Alain and {{Steven}}'s battle.

In the anime, Team Flare hatches a plan to capture the [[Legendary Pokémon]], {{p|Zygarde}}, which is first revealed in ''[[XY094|From A to Z!]]''. However, they fail in doing so as it escapes. The team are after two of the Zygarde Cores, code-named [[Squishy|Z1]] and [[Z2]]. In ''[[XY102|Meeting at Terminus Cave!]]'', Team Flare were able to locate Z2 while it and Z1 were communicating, and Mable and Aliana proceeded to go after Z2. After discovering that Z1 had joined {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}, they began following the group to capture it, and were seen on numerous occasions. Team Flare Admins, along with [[Xerosic]], began their experiments on an island using the power of Zygarde Cells to mutate trees, which Xerosic declared was a success. Locating Z2, Aliana and Mable, along with Team Flare Grunts, were able to capture Z2 with the help of [[Alain]] and his {{TP|Alain|Charizard}}, allowing Xerosic to later experiment on it.

In ''[[XY129|Kalos League Passion with a Certain Flare!]]'', on the night before the [[Lumiose Conference]]'s final round, Team Flare, reaching the final stages of their plan, made their way to the [[Prism Tower]] to begin setting up their equipment. At the end of ''[[XY131|Down to the Fiery Finish!]]'', Lysandre arrived at Prism Tower and ordered Z2 to show him its power as he put his plan into motion. In ''[[XY132|A Towering Takeover!]]'', Lysandre televised a message to the citizens of Kalos, describing his plan to create a new, beautiful world by destroying the one they currently live in. Team Flare's plot was ultimately foiled in ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]'', after Z2 was freed from its control and Team Flare's [[Giant Rock]] destroyed. Lysandre's fate was unclear after he was engulfed in the same explosion that destroyed the Giant Rock, while the other members were eventually arrested.

===[[Team Skull]]===
[[File:Sun Moon Team Skull Grunt.png|thumb|250px|Team Skull Grunts]]
Team Skull is the primary villainous team of the [[Alola]] region. The grunts' black-and-white uniforms are inspired by street gangs, and consist of sneakers, shorts, wrist bands, tank tops, bandannas used to cover the lower face, and berets that resemble the tops of skulls. Their symbol is a stylized letter S in the shape of a skull, which is worn as a medallion.

====In the games====
Team Skull's intentions are to simply make enough money to survive. They have a history of disrupting [[island challenge]] events. The team's leader, [[Guzma]], once attempted the island challenge and failed. He is acquainted with [[Professor Kukui]]. [[Plumeria]], an Admin, is considered the "big sister" of the team and cares for the grunts, calling them her "cute, dumb brothers and sisters". It is eventually revealed by some of their members that the organization is composed of other people who also failed their island challenge. Their enforcer, [[Gladion]], is the son of Aether President [[Lusamine]] and joined their team to become stronger, though the grunts do not consider him a real member of their team. Their base is located in [[Po Town]].

====In the anime====
Team Skull debuted in ''[[SM001|Alola to New Adventure!]]'', where three of their grunts, [[Tupp]], [[Zipp]], and [[Rapp]], challenged [[Kiawe]] to a Pokémon battle, threatening to steal his {{p|Charizard}}. {{Ash}} and {{an|Kiawe}} teamed up to defeat the grunts, with Kiawe defeating all of the grunts' Pokémon with his {{TP|Kiawe|Turtonator}}'s Z-Move. Since then, they have made semi-regular appearances in the {{series|Sun & Moon}}, especially Tupp, Zipp, and Rapp.

[[File:Sword Shield Team Yell Grunt.png|thumb|250px|Team Yell Grunts]]
Team Yell is the villainous team of the [[Galar]] region. The grunts' black-and-pink uniforms are inspired by {{wp|Football hooliganism|football hooligans}} and punks; and consist of sneakers, pranks, tank tops, vests, and gloves. Many of their clothing articles are ripped/torn or embellished with spikes and studs. The grunts also wear face paint and dyed or painted hair. Their symbol is a stylized, upside-down Y, forming an eye tattoo or a claw, though it also closely resembles their signature Y-shaped {{wp|vuvuzela}}.

====In the games====
Team Yell's intentions are similar to Team Skull's, as they also have a history of disrupting events. They are devoted fans of [[Marnie]].

**For [[Archie]] and [[Maxie]], the background resembles a whirlpool or a volcano, respectively, while both battles take place in the [[Seafloor Cavern]]. Even if water and magma are featured in the chamber they are faced, they are battled on solid land. For the purposes of {{cat|moves that vary with environment}} and {{p|Burmy}}, it is treated as the default plain terrain.
*So far, [[Team Break]] is the only villainous team (excluding [[Team Meanies]] and [[Team Skull (Mystery Dungeon)|Team Skull]]) without a leader and/or admins.

Villainous team

2020-04-02T22:31:29Z

Mr.GodzillaMan: /* Team Yell */

{{incomplete|needs=This article needs quite a bit of cleanup, maybe a few images, and needs Team Debonairs and Great Rocket.}}
'''Villainous teams''', referred to officially as '''villainous organizations''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|悪|あく}}の{{tt|組織|きそしき}}''' ''villainous organizations'') or '''sinister organizations''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|敵組織|てきそしき}}''' ''villainous organizations''; officially ''secret teams''), are {{wp|organized crime}} groups which serve as the main antagonists in the storylines of [[Pokémon games]]. Whatever their goals in their respective games, one thing they all have in common is that they plan on achieving their results through the misuse of {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Their names generally follow the pattern '''Team ~''' (Japanese: '''{{j|～団}}''' ''-dan'').

==Comparisons==
Villainous teams in the [[core series]] have many aspects in common. Their structure generally includes, in order of rank, a leader, one or more admins and a number of anonymous grunts. Some teams have additional levels of authority within them, such as [[Team Flare]]'s scientists, as well as additional members and associated individuals who do not fit into the hierarchy at all, such as [[Gladion]], who works with [[Team Skull]].

Aside from {{game|Emerald}}, each core series game has only one team acting in a villainous capacity. Typically, the player character encounters the villainous team many times over the course of their adventure. Typically, they first encounter grunts early in the game, often involved in a small act of villainy unrelated to the team's broader goals. As the player's adventure continues, they meet more of the team's members and uncover more of its secrets and aims, culminating in one or more encounters with the team's boss. Finally, toward the end of the game, the player foils the team's scheme. In most games — with the exception of {{game|Black and White|s}} — this happens before the end of the player's journey to the [[Pokémon League]].

The above refers to the core series games; however, other canons, such as the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, have created very different interpretations of villainous teams.

[[File:HeartGold SoulSilver Team Rocket Grunt.png|thumb|250px|Team Rocket Grunts]]
Team Rocket is the villainous team of the [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] regions. The grunts wear black costumes and have a red "R" as their crest. Many variations of the costume have been seen. Their leader is [[Giovanni]].

====In the games====
In [[Generation I]], Team Rocket often worked to gain money, through methods such as burglary and selling [[Fossil]]s. Their plans culminated in a hostile takeover of the [[Silph Co.]] building in [[Saffron City]]. The gang based their operations in the hidden basement of the [[Celadon Game Corner]].

Initially, [[Giovanni]] was the leader of the [[Viridian Gym]]. After being defeated by {{ga|Red}}/{{ga|Leaf}}, he resigned his position and disappeared to train further. Team Rocket was disbanded at this time, but isolated groups still operated in the [[Sevii Islands]] until they were made aware of Giovanni's departure.

For three years, Team Rocket appeared to be gone completely. However, an underground movement, led by executives from the [[Sevii Islands]], developed in the [[Johto]] region. As usual, it began with crimes committed to earn money, such as selling {{p|Slowpoke}} tails at outrageous prices.

As the Johto Team Rocket grew in size, scientists within the group studied radio waves and how they might be used to control Pokémon. From a former ninja base in [[Mahogany Town]], their experiments affected the {{p|Magikarp}} at the [[Lake of Rage]], causing the Pokémon to evolve unnaturally. Although the experiment was stopped by [[Lance]], Team Rocket soon took over the [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]], intending to use its transmitter to affect Pokémon nationwide.

Before putting their plan into action, however, Team Rocket used the tower to instead attempt to contact Giovanni, hoping he would hear their message and return. This gave {{ga|Ethan}}/{{ga|Lyra}} enough time to infiltrate the besieged Goldenrod and defeat Team Rocket's executives, who again disbanded the group. Some time later, a time traveling Ethan/Lyra from the future fought Giovanni while their present-day counterpart watched the fight. Giovanni vanished after the fight, and Ethan/Lyra returned to their time.

====In the anime====
Team Rocket has appeared in almost every episode since [[EP002|the second]], usually as the bumbling trio [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}, though at times {{an|Giovanni}} as well as other members, such as [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]], have appeared. Giovanni made separate attempts to take over [[Kanto]] and [[Unova]], failing both times.

{{incomplete|section|other manga}}
=====Pokémon Adventures=====
{{main|Team Rocket#In the Pokémon Adventures manga}}
Team Rocket first appear in Pokémon Adventures, when {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Blue}} are pursuing {{p|Mew}} in [[Viridian Forest]]. They are led by {{adv|Giovanni}}, who is portrayed in a much more sinister light than in the anime or games, as with Team Rocket on a whole.

This canon's depiction of Gym Leaders is different from that of the games and anime, who generally depict [[Gym Leader]]s as valiant. In the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}, the three most prominent members of Team Rocket, collectively referred to as the [[Team Rocket Triad]], are [[Koga]], [[Sabrina]] and [[Lt. Surge]]. Like the other villainous trios, two members of the Team Rocket Triad (Sabrina and Lt. Surge) are true to their original calling (though as opposed to the other villainous trios, for them it is being Gym Leaders, not being members of their Team), while one goes his own way, that being Koga.

For a short time, [[Blaine]] worked for Team Rocket, making 5 out of the 8 [[Gym Leader#Indigo League|Kanto Leaders]] Rocket-affiliated at some point in their life.

As in the games, Giovanni later disbands Team Rocket and shuns the Team Rocket Triad, and the four of them go their separate ways. Team Rocket make a brief comeback aboard the S.S. Aqua, but they are on the whole unsuccessful. Later, however, [[Pryce]], under the guise of the [[Masked Man]], reforms Team Rocket for his own uses. At this point, his most prominent members are [[Carl]], [[Sham]], [[Karen]] and [[Will]]. Pryce plans to use Team Rocket to gain control of {{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}} and eventually {{p|Celebi}}, and through that control time in order to save his {{p|Lapras}}'s parents. After {{adv|Gold}} convinces him to cease his villainous ways, he too disbands Team Rocket.

In the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}, Giovanni once again reforms Team Rocket, the most notable members now being the [[Three Beasts]] of Team Rocket. The main aim for Team Rocket is to reunite Giovanni with his son {{adv|Silver}} through the use of {{adv|Deoxys}}. Like the other villainous trios, two of the Beasts remain true to their original calling as Rockets, those being [[Orm]] and [[Sird]], while the other, [[Carr]], goes his own way. In this arc, Silver is intended to inherit Team Rocket, but he instead shuns it.

In the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}, it was revealed that Carr had taken over Team Rocket and gathered the remaining troops together. His reign of power comes to an abrupt end, however, as the organization is then taken over by the four {{tc|Executive|Rocket Executives}}, who intend to gather all the [[Plate]]s and use them to control {{p|Arceus}}. With the unknowing help of Gold, {{adv|Crystal}}, and Silver, the Rocket Executives manage to enter the [[Sinjoh Ruins]], where Arceus recreates {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and {{p|Giratina}}, which [[Archer]] intends to be an invincible army for Giovanni. However, when Giovanni arrives with [[Lance]] and Pryce, it is revealed that the battle of the three [[Legendary Pokémon]] would cause the destruction of both Johto and [[Sinnoh]], as foreseen by Pryce when he was trapped in the time stream. Thanks to Gold opening up to [[Togebo]], Arceus soon calms down the Legendary Pokémon, sending them back to their respective realms. As a reward of his good deed, Celebi then cures Giovanni of his long-time illness, allowing him to return to lead Team Rocket and its rebuilding. Silver still doesn't approve his father's criminal life, intending to stop Team Rocket and convince his father of the error of his ways one day by himself.

===[[Team Aqua]]===
[[File:Omega Ruby Alpha Sapphire Team Aqua Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Aqua Grunts]]
Team Aqua is one of two villainous teams of the [[Hoenn]] region. The grunts wear blue costumes that look like {{wp|pirate}} outfits. They have a skull-and-bones-like "A" as their crest. Their leader is [[Archie]]. Team Aqua tries to expand the ocean and awaken {{p|Kyogre}}.

====In the games====
In [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Sapphire]] (and its remake, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Alpha Sapphire]]), their main goal is to reduce the landmass of the [[Hoenn]] region. They are first encountered in [[Petalburg Woods]] and a grunt is fought. After earning the {{Badge|Stone}}, the same grunt is seen fleeing to the [[Rusturf Tunnel]], and had kidnapped [[Peeko]]. Later, they are seen [[Slateport City]]'s [[Oceanic Museum]], attempting to steal the [[Devon Parts|Devon Goods]] from [[Captain Stern]]. Later, they steal a [[Meteorite]] from [[Professor Cozmo]] in [[Meteor Falls]], and use it to try to cause [[Mt. Chimney]] to become dormant. After being defeated, they aren't seen again until the player reaches the [[Weather Institute]], where a group of grunts led by [[Shelly]] are looking for information about the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Kyogre}} and the weather Pokémon {{p|Castform}}. Soon after, they are seen at [[Mt. Pyre]], and succeed in stealing the [[Red Orb]] (Blue Orb in Alpha Sapphire). They then return to [[Slateport City]] to steal the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] that Captain Stern built. They are seen and fought at their [[Team Aqua Hideout|hideout]] near [[Lilycove City]], which cannot be accessed until after earning the {{Badge|Mind}} in Sapphire, and they then travel to the [[Seafloor Cavern]] with the orb to awaken Kyogre.

In [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Ruby]] and its remake, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby]], they help the player defeat Team Magma.

In {{game|Emerald}}, a single grunt is encountered in [[Petalburg Woods]] with a second encounter ending in [[Rusturf Tunnel]]. As a group, they are first seen at [[Slateport City]]'s [[Oceanic Museum]], attempting to steal the [[Devon Parts|Devon Goods]] from [[Captain Stern]]. At [[Meteor Falls]] they cause [[Team Magma]] to flee. They are seen fighting Team Magma at Mt. Chimney. Later, they are seen again when the player reaches the [[Weather Institute]], where a group of grunts led by [[Shelly]] are looking for information about the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Kyogre}} and the weather Pokémon {{p|Castform}}. Soon after, they are seen at [[Mt. Pyre]], and succeed in stealing the [[Red Orb]]. They then steal the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] that Captain Stern built. They are seen and fought at their [[Team Aqua Hideout|hideout]] near [[Lilycove City]]. After many grunts and [[Aqua Admin Matt|Matt]] are defeated, they are seen traveling to the [[Seafloor Cavern]] with the Red Orb to awaken Kyogre. After defeating many grunts and [[Shelly]], Archie is seen awakening Kyogre, but it flees, and is fought and defeated by the player. Archie and [[Maxie]] are seen in [[Sootopolis City]] until {{p|Rayquaza}} stops the fight between Kyogre and {{p|Groudon}}. After this, the two leaders are seen returning the respective orbs to Mt. Pyre.

====In the anime====
Team Aqua made their first appearance in ''[[AG017|Stairway to Devon]]''.

====In the manga====
=====Pokémon Adventures=====
{{main|Team Aqua#In the Pokémon Adventures manga}}

===[[Team Magma]]===
[[File:Omega Ruby Alpha Sapphire Team Magma Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Magma Grunts]]
Team Magma is one of two villainous teams of the [[Hoenn]] region. The grunts wear red jumpsuit outfits, which have been variously interpreted to look like {{wp|Ninja}} costumes or similar to an imp. They have a stylized "M", appearing like a volcano, as their team's signature crest. Their leader is [[Maxie]]. Team Magma attempts to wake {{p|Groudon}} and expand the land area of the world.

====In the games====
In [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Ruby]] (and its remake, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby]]), their main goal is to increase the landmass of the [[Hoenn]] region. They are first encountered in [[Petalburg Woods]], and a grunt is fought. After earning the {{Badge|Stone}}, the same grunt is seen fleeing to the [[Rusturf Tunnel]] and had kidnapped Peeko. Later, they are encountered at [[Slateport City]]'s [[Oceanic Museum]], attempting to steal the [[Devon Parts|Devon Goods]] from [[Captain Stern]]. Later, they steal a [[Meteorite]] from [[Professor Cozmo]] in [[Meteor Falls]], and use it to try to cause Mt. Chimney to erupt. After being defeated, they aren't seen again until the player reaches the [[Weather Institute]], where a group of grunts led by [[Magma Admin Courtney|Courtney]] in Ruby or [[Tabitha]] in Omega Ruby are looking for information about the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Groudon}} and the weather Pokémon {{p|Castform}}. Soon after, they are seen at [[Mt. Pyre]], and succeed in stealing the [[Blue Orb]] (Red Orb in Omega Ruby). They then steal the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] that Captain Stern built. They are seen and fought at their [[Team Magma Hideout|hideout]] in [[Lilycove City]], which cannot be accessed after earning the {{Badge|Mind}} in Ruby, and they then travel to the [[Seafloor Cavern]] with the orb to awaken Groudon.

In [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Sapphire]] (and its remake, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Alpha Sapphire]]), they help the player defeat Team Aqua.

In {{game|Emerald}}, Team Magma is first seen in Meteor Falls, but flee when [[Archie]] and [[Team Aqua]] appear. Like in Ruby and Omega Ruby, they steal the meteorite. They are first fought at Mt. Chimney, and this is the first time [[Tabitha]] and [[Maxie]] are fought. After fighting Team Aqua, who successfully stole the Red Orb, at Mt. Pyre, the player obtains the [[Magma Emblem]], which was dropped by a grunt when Team Magma stole the Blue Orb, and accesses the [[Magma Hideout (Jagged Pass)|hideout]]. However, in this game, it's located in [[Jagged Pass]] instead of being near Lilycove City in Ruby and Omega Ruby. After defeating many grunts and Tabitha, the player witnesses Maxie awaken Groudon, but it flees, and they then fight Maxie for the second time. After earning the Mind Badge, they are fought at the [[Mossdeep Space Center]] for the last time. After defeating a few grunts, the player teams up with [[Steven Stone]] and defeat Maxie and Tabitha in a Double Battle. They are also seen after Archie awakens Kyogre in the Seafloor Cavern and is defeated by the player. The two leaders are in [[Sootopolis City]] until {{p|Rayquaza}} stops the fight between Kyogre and Groudon. After that, they are seen returning the respective orbs to Mt. Pyre.

====In the anime====
Team Magma made their first appearance in ''[[AG002|A Ruin with a View]]''.

===[[Team Galactic]]===
[[File:Diamond Pearl Team Galactic Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Galactic Grunts]]
Team Galactic is the villainous team of the [[Sinnoh]] region. Galactic Grunts wear black and white jumpsuits that vaguely resemble spacesuits and wear their hair in teal bowl cuts. Their leader is [[Cyrus]], who wishes to create a new universe by awakening {{p|Dialga}} and{{tt|*|Pokémon Platinum Version}}/or{{tt|*|Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Versions}} {{p|Palkia}}. Their team's crest is a stylized letter "G" (possibly resembling a spiral galaxy). Whereas the other teams usually have large logos on their uniforms, Team Galactic's logos are small, being barely visible on their battle sprites.

====In the games====
In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, Cyrus wishes to recreate the {{pkmn|universe}} in his image with the powers of {{p|Dialga}} or {{p|Palkia}}. In {{game|Platinum}}, the leader is still Cyrus, but this time, he tries to summon both Dialga and Palkia to create a world without spirit. In Platinum, [[Charon]] is also present.

In Platinum, once the player has access to [[Stark Mountain]], [[Mars]] and [[Jupiter]] are seen at Stark Mountain with Charon attempting to use the power of {{p|Heatran}}, but after being defeated, they leave the team, and Charon is arrested, leaving [[Saturn]] as the only Team Galactic Commander still part of the team.

====In the anime====
[[Saturn]], along with two grunts, appeared in ''[[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence!]]'', though it was just a brief cameo at the end of the episode. Here, they commissioned Team Rocket to steal the [[Adamant Orb]] and frame [[Nando]] for the crime. At the end, Team Galactic commented that Team Rocket did a lousy job at it. This was not revealed until their next appearance, ''[[DP060|Journey to the Unown!]]''. Saturn tried to locate the {{p|Unown}} and control them using a cube with an {{p|Arceus}} pattern. [[Cyrus]], [[Mars]], and [[Jupiter]] later appeared in ''[[DP096|Losing Its Lustrous]]'' and ''[[DP097|Double Team Turnover!]]'' with Saturn.

====In the manga====
=====Pokémon Adventures=====
{{main|Team Galactic#In the Pokémon Adventures manga}}

=====Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!=====
Like in the games, the team is led by [[Cyrus]]. The team essentially has the same goal as in the games, but it was possible that the {{tc|Commander}}s did not know about the absolute plan of their leader, since Mars was shocked when Cyrus revealed that his ultimate goal was to create the universe and all of its life fully anew. [[Hareta]], with the help of [[Mitsumi]], a former member, and the Gym Leaders, managed to stop him. Later, [[Charon]] became the new leader and tried to capture {{p|Heatran}}. [[Mars]] and [[Jupiter]] left on a search to find Cyrus and were treated as deserters.

One of the most distinctive characters of the team is [[B-2]], a grunt who has swollen buttocks due to Hareta biting him when they first met.

===[[Team Plasma]]===
[[File:Black White Team Plasma Grunts.png|thumb|left|250px|Team Plasma Grunts as they appear in Black and White]]
[[File:Black 2 White 2 Team Plasma Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Plasma Grunts as they appear in Black 2 and White 2]]
Team Plasma is the villainous team of the [[Unova]] region. Originally, the grunts wore a costume that resembles a {{wp|knight}}'s armor, while the [[Seven Sages]] wore robes. Their objective is to separate [[human]]ity from Pokémon. Their leader is [[N]], although the team is being used to further the goals of his adopted father, [[Ghetsis]]. After this is discovered, the members of Team Plasma that support Ghetsis change their uniform to be more similar to pirates, while those that support N remain in the old uniform. Their crest is the letters P and Z combined together, looking like the {{wp|Chi Rho}}.

====In the games====
Team Plasma appears in various locations. In {{game|Black and White|s}}, their leader, N, is encountered very early in the game and is battled in many of Team Plasma's appearances. Eventually, N is able to gain control of {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W}}, and defeats the champion [[Alder]]. After the player captures the other [[Legendary Pokémon]] and defeats N, Ghetsis reveals his true plans, battling the hero himself. After his defeat and arrest, [[Looker]] will ask the player to help him round up the remaining [[Seven Sages|Sages]].

In {{game|Black and White|s|4=2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2}}, Team Plasma has split into two different factions. One of the factions consists of the few members of Team Plasma that are still loyal to N. The other faction, known as the new Team Plasma, is led by [[Colress]]. This faction is not attempting to release Pokémon, but instead take over Unova. They intend to accomplish this new goal by freezing the region and stealing all of the region's Pokémon. Having escaped from custody, Ghetsis once again reveals himself to be the true mastermind behind Team Plasma's actions.

The reformed members and N help the player against new Team Plasma, culminating in the defeat of Colress and Ghetsis — the latter controlling {{p|Kyurem}}. Following this, Colress officially disbands Team Plasma, retiring to [[P2 Laboratory]]. Ghetsis, having snapped and lost heart upon seeing his plans foiled, is taken away by the [[Shadow Triad]], never to be seen again.

====In the anime====
Team Plasma's [[BW023 (unaired)|debut]] [[BW024 (unaired)|episodes]] were postponed due to the {{wp|Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami}} in Japan and were later retconned out of continuity. Their proper debut was in the ''[[Best Wishes series|Best Wishes Season 2: Episode N]]'' arc, but in their new outfits.

N debuted at the end of ''[[BW109|New Places... Familiar Faces!]]'' and was properly introduced in the [[BW110|next episode]]. Colress, with some other [[Team Plasma Grunt (Trainer class)|grunts]], first appeared in ''[[BW112|Team Plasma's Pokémon Power Plot!]]'' experimenting with wild Pokémon. Ghetsis made his proper appearance  in ''[[BW117|Team Plasma's Pokémon Manipulation!]]''. [[Anthea and Concordia]] made their debut at the end of the episode rescuing N from Team Plasma. The Seven Sages appeared in a flashback in ''[[BW118|Secrets From Out of the Fog!]]''. Like in the [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|games]], Team Plasma's plan is to use the strength of Pokémon and use it to take over the [[Unova]] region.

===[[Team Flare]]===
[[File:XY Team Flare Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Flare Grunts]]
Team Flare is the villainous team of the Kalos region. The grunts' uniform is a mafia styled red suit, while Admins wear more stylized white suits and Scientists wear red suits of varying designs. Their symbol is a flaming letter F.

====In the games====
At first, Team Flare's goal is claimed to be making the world "beautiful" with style and lots of money. Despite their claims, several grunts and even their leader [[Lysandre]] confirm that they seek a world benefiting only those within Team Flare, disregarding anybody else. Team Flare attempted to make money by stealing and selling [[Fossil]]s. They also siphoned energy from the [[Kalos Power Plant]], and later on stole [[Poké Ball]]s from the [[Poké Ball Factory]].

It is eventually revealed that Team Flare's true plan is to use the ancient Ultimate Weapon in order to obliterate all life except themselves and start anew, as Lysandre no longer sees a bright future for the current society — which, in his words, has grown to an unsustainable level and is doomed by "unproductive fools" consuming the planet's limited resources. At this point, it is explained that all their actions were preparations to this goal: the energy from the Power Plant was needed to reactivate the weapon, and the large number of Pokémon was needed to feed it, as it is powered by their life energies.

After the player has defeated the Elite Four and the Champion, the player is tasked by [[Looker]] to help him solve a series of crimes related to a person known as [[Emma|Essentia]], which would be revealed to be the result of experiments by [[Xerosic]], one of Team Flare's scientists.

====In the anime====
The first appearance of a Team Flare member was in ''[[XYS01|Mega Evolution Special I]]'', where Lysandre made an appearance at Lysandre Labs, monitoring the Mega Evolution energy [[Alain]] had accumulated. He appears again in ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', where he interrupted Alain and {{Steven}}'s battle.

In the anime, Team Flare hatches a plan to capture the [[Legendary Pokémon]], {{p|Zygarde}}, which is first revealed in ''[[XY094|From A to Z!]]''. However, they fail in doing so as it escapes. The team are after two of the Zygarde Cores, code-named [[Squishy|Z1]] and [[Z2]]. In ''[[XY102|Meeting at Terminus Cave!]]'', Team Flare were able to locate Z2 while it and Z1 were communicating, and Mable and Aliana proceeded to go after Z2. After discovering that Z1 had joined {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}, they began following the group to capture it, and were seen on numerous occasions. Team Flare Admins, along with [[Xerosic]], began their experiments on an island using the power of Zygarde Cells to mutate trees, which Xerosic declared was a success. Locating Z2, Aliana and Mable, along with Team Flare Grunts, were able to capture Z2 with the help of [[Alain]] and his {{TP|Alain|Charizard}}, allowing Xerosic to later experiment on it.

In ''[[XY129|Kalos League Passion with a Certain Flare!]]'', on the night before the [[Lumiose Conference]]'s final round, Team Flare, reaching the final stages of their plan, made their way to the [[Prism Tower]] to begin setting up their equipment. At the end of ''[[XY131|Down to the Fiery Finish!]]'', Lysandre arrived at Prism Tower and ordered Z2 to show him its power as he put his plan into motion. In ''[[XY132|A Towering Takeover!]]'', Lysandre televised a message to the citizens of Kalos, describing his plan to create a new, beautiful world by destroying the one they currently live in. Team Flare's plot was ultimately foiled in ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]'', after Z2 was freed from its control and Team Flare's [[Giant Rock]] destroyed. Lysandre's fate was unclear after he was engulfed in the same explosion that destroyed the Giant Rock, while the other members were eventually arrested.

===[[Team Skull]]===
[[File:Sun Moon Team Skull Grunt.png|thumb|250px|Team Skull Grunts]]
Team Skull is the primary villainous team of the [[Alola]] region. The grunts' black-and-white uniforms are inspired by street gangs, and consist of sneakers, shorts, wrist bands, tank tops, bandannas used to cover the lower face, and berets that resemble the tops of skulls. Their symbol is a stylized letter S in the shape of a skull, which is worn as a medallion.

====In the games====
Team Skull's intentions are to simply make enough money to survive. They have a history of disrupting [[island challenge]] events. The team's leader, [[Guzma]], once attempted the island challenge and failed. He is acquainted with [[Professor Kukui]]. [[Plumeria]], an Admin, is considered the "big sister" of the team and cares for the grunts, calling them her "cute, dumb brothers and sisters". It is eventually revealed by some of their members that the organization is composed of other people who also failed their island challenge. Their enforcer, [[Gladion]], is the son of Aether President [[Lusamine]] and joined their team to become stronger, though the grunts do not consider him a real member of their team. Their base is located in [[Po Town]].

====In the anime====
Team Skull debuted in ''[[SM001|Alola to New Adventure!]]'', where three of their grunts, [[Tupp]], [[Zipp]], and [[Rapp]], challenged [[Kiawe]] to a Pokémon battle, threatening to steal his {{p|Charizard}}. {{Ash}} and {{an|Kiawe}} teamed up to defeat the grunts, with Kiawe defeating all of the grunts' Pokémon with his {{TP|Kiawe|Turtonator}}'s Z-Move. Since then, they have made semi-regular appearances in the {{series|Sun & Moon}}, especially Tupp, Zipp, and Rapp.

====In the games====
Team Rainbow Rocket's intentions are to create an army of [[Ultra Beast]]s in order to conquer all the worlds. The group is led by [[Giovanni]], who has recruited the leaders of other villainous teams from alternate universes where they were successful in their plans, including [[Archie]] of [[Team Aqua]], [[Maxie]] of [[Team Magma]], [[Cyrus]] of [[Team Galactic]], [[Ghetsis]] of [[Team Plasma]], and [[Lysandre]] of [[Team Flare]].

===[[Team Yell]]===
[[File:Sword Shield Team Yell Grunt.png|thumb|250px|Team Yell Grunts]]
Team Yell is the villainous team of the [[Galar]] region. The grunts' black-and-pink uniforms are inspired by {{wp|Football hooliganism|football hooligans}} and punks; and consist of sneakers, pranks, tank tops, vests, and gloves. Many of their clothing articles are ripped/torn or embellished with spikes and studs. The grunts also wear face paint and dyed or painted hair. Their symbol is a stylized, upside-down Y, forming an eye tattoo or a claw, though it also closely resembles their signature Y-shaped {{wp|vuvuzela}}.

====In the games====
Team Yell's intentions are similar to Team Skull's, as they also have a history of disrupting events. They are devoted fans of [[Marnie]].

Team Break briefly appeared in the [[Pokémon Masters Animated Trailer]] in a montage.

==Trivia==
*In [[Generation VI]], the final battle against a villainous team's Boss takes place on a background that differs from the actual location and reflects the Team's name.
**For [[Lysandre]], the background is a fiery area resembling a Sun's corona, whereas the actual location was [[Team Flare Secret HQ]].
**For [[Archie]] and [[Maxie]], the background resembles a whirlpool or a volcano, respectively, while both battles take place in the [[Seafloor Cavern]]. Even if water and magma are featured in the chamber they are faced, they are battled on solid land. For the purposes of {{cat|moves that vary with environment}} and {{p|Burmy}}, it is treated as the default plain terrain.
*So far, [[Team Break]] is the only villainous team (excluding [[Team Meanies]] and [[Team Skull (Mystery Dungeon)|Team Skull]]) without a leader and/or admins.

'''Zacian''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ザシアン''' ''Zacian'') is a {{type|Fairy}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation VIII]].

While it is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, Zacian has a [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Zacian|second form]] activated by giving it a [[Rusted Sword]] to hold. Its original form, '''Hero of Many Battles''', will then become the {{2t|Fairy|Steel}}-type '''Crowned Sword'''.

Zacian is the [[game mascot]] of [[Pokémon Sword and Shield|Pokémon Sword]], appearing on the boxart in its Crowned Sword form.

==Biology==
In its Hero of Many Battles form, Zacian looks like a large cyan wolf with yellow eyes, an orange tail, and orange braids going down the side of its body. Two orange fringes of fur are present on its back. Battle scars are visible on its sides, and part of one ear is missing; this ear is healed when it assumes the Crowned Sword form. In its Crowned Sword form, the fringes of fur on its back become wing-like armor and its braids grow to resemble ribbons. Additionally, its head is covered by a golden helmet, and it carries a golden sword decorated to resemble Zacian's colors.

According to legends, Zacian is believed to be either the elder sister or rival of {{p|Zamazenta}}. It is also known as the ''Fairy King's Sword'' by friends and foes due to it cutting down anything in one strike. It can turn itself into a statue in order to slumber until need and is capable of flying. When together with {{p|Zamazenta}} it can negate the power of {{p|Eternatus}}, even in its Eternamax state. By absorbing the metal particles in the land, it can change its form. It can also cast illusions including a projection of itself even when asleep.

Zacian can attack so gracefully the movements can captivate its opponents, which has been compared to a graceful dance. The sword it holds in its mouth can cut through anything with a sharp edge capable of harming even the thick scales of {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon as if they were just paper. When Zacian slashes its opponents it moves faster than the blinking eye, thus those struck down by its sword will not feel the pain until they fall down. When using its {{m|Behemoth Blade|signature move}}, it can cut the ocean in two.<ref>https://swordshield.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon-galar-region/zacian/</ref> Zacian can sheathe its sword when not in use by wrapping it with its mane.

Zacian is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of using {{m|Behemoth Blade}}.

==Trivia==
* Crowned Sword Zacian has the highest base {{stat|Attack}} stat of all {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon and the highest base {{stat|Speed}} stat of all Fairy-type and {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.
* Crowned Sword Zacian is the [[List of Pokémon by weight|heaviest]] {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon.
* Despite being a genderless species, Zacian is referred to as {{p|Zamazenta}}'s older sister in its English, Japanese, and {{pmin|Greater China|Chinese}} [[Pokédex]] entries; other-language versions use a neutral word.

===Origin===
Zacian may be based on {{wp|King Arthur}}'s sword {{wp|Excalibur}}. Its role as a warrior aiding a king may take inspiration on the {{wp|Knights of the Round Table}}. In addition, Zacian's feminine nature may be a reference to the {{wp|Lady of the Lake}}, the character responsible for giving King Arthur his sword, and its relationship with Zamazenta may allude to the relationship between King Arthur and his sister {{wp|Morgan le Fay}}. It otherwise resembles a {{wp|wolf}}, an animal once native to {{wp|Great Britain}} and an important heraldic symbol for noble families during the {{wp|Middle Ages}}. Its long, hanging blue fur resembles a {{wp|caparison}}, a cloth covering usually worn by warhorses during the {{wp|High Middle Ages}}.

The story of Zacian and Zamazenta retreating to the Slumbering Weald to recover from their wounds, and their return in the present day to save Galar, parallels the legend of {{wp|King Arthur's messianic return}}.

Zacian's sword's ability to cut through anything, with Zamazenta's shield resisting any attack, could be an example of an {{wp|irresistible force paradox}}. One of the most famous examples of this in folklore include the Chinese tale of a peddler selling a sword and a spear with similar properties, only to be asked what would happen if the two items were to be used against one another. Another example tells of the Greek hunting hound {{wp|Laelaps (mythology)|Laelaps}}, which always caught its prey, being set upon {{wp|Teumessian fox}}, which could never be caught, and had to be turned into constellations to prevent the paradox.

====Name origin====
Zacian may be derived from ''the cyan''.

==Trivia==
* Crowned Sword Zacian has the highest base {{stat|Attack}} stat of all {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon and the highest base {{stat|Speed}} stat of all Fairy-type and {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.
* Crowned Sword Zacian is the [[List of Pokémon by weight|heaviest]] {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon.
* Despite being a genderless species, Zacian is referred to as {{p|Zamazenta}}'s older sister in its English, Japanese, and {{pmin|Greater China|Chinese}} [[Pokédex]] entries; other-language versions use a neutral word.

===Origin===
Zacian may be based on {{wp|King Arthur}}'s sword {{wp|Excalibur}}. Its role as a warrior aiding a king may take inspiration on the {{wp|Knights of the Round Table}}. In addition, Zacian's feminine nature may be a reference to the {{wp|Lady of the Lake}}, the character responsible for giving King Arthur his sword, and its relationship with Zamazenta may allude to the relationship between King Arthur and his sister {{wp|Morgan le Fay}}. It otherwise resembles a {{wp|wolf}}, an animal once native to {{wp|Great Britain}} and an important heraldic symbol for noble families during the {{wp|Middle Ages}}. Its long, hanging blue fur resembles a {{wp|caparison}}, a cloth covering usually worn by warhorses during the {{wp|High Middle Ages}}.

The story of Zacian and Zamazenta retreating to the Slumbering Weald to recover from their wounds, and their return in the present day to save Galar, parallels the legend of {{wp|King Arthur's messianic return}}.

Zacian's sword's ability to cut through anything, with Zamazenta's shield resisting any attack, could be an example of an {{wp|irresistible force paradox}}. One of the most famous examples of this in folklore include the Chinese tale of a peddler selling a sword and a spear with similar properties, only to be asked what would happen if the two items were to be used against one another. Another example tells of the Greek hunting hound {{wp|Laelaps (mythology)|Laelaps}}, which always caught its prey, being set upon {{wp|Teumessian fox}}, which could never be caught, and had to be turned into constellations to prevent the paradox.

====Name origin====
Zacian may be derived from ''the cyan''.

'''Zamazenta''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ザマゼンタ''' ''Zamazenta'') is a {{type|Fighting}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation VIII]].

While it is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, Zamazenta has a [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Zamazenta|second form]] activated by giving it a [[Rusted Shield]] to hold. Its original form, '''Hero of Many Battles''', will then become the {{2t|Fighting|Steel}}-type '''Crowned Shield'''.

Zamazenta is the [[game mascot]] of [[Pokémon Sword and Shield|Pokémon Shield]], appearing on the boxart in its Crowned Shield form.

==Biology==
Zamazenta resembles a magenta wolf with yellow eyes, with a bulkier frame than Zacian's and a ponytail on its head. Its forelimbs, tail, and ponytail are all a deep blue. Its body is covered in battle scars and part of one ear is missing (which is healed when it enters its Crowned Shield form). Its head and neck have thick fur resembling a shield.

The Crowned Shield form causes Zamazenta to generate a set of golden armor covering the front of its body like a shield; while the side portion normally covers its forelimbs, it can slide forward to allow Zamazenta to use Behemoth Bash or protect itself from frontal attacks more effectively. Its ponytail also grows to cover most of its backside.

By absorbing metal particles, Zamazenta can change to its other form in battle. In legends, it known as the ''Fighting Master's Shield'' due to ability to defect any attacks. Zamazenta is both feared and respected by all. By becoming a statue, it can rest for aeons; even while asleep, it can cast illusions including a projection of itself. Zamazenta is capable of flying. It is variously believed to be the younger sibling or the rival of {{p|Zacian}}. When together with Zacian, it cancels out the power of {{p|Eternatus}}, even in the powerful Eternamax form.

Zamazenta's regal and majestic movements enables it to overwhelm opponents who face off against it. Zamazenta fends off the attacks of foes by using the golden shield that covers its front. The shield's strength is so formidable that even the sharp claws of {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon cannot leave a single scratch upon it. No battlefield, no matter how terrible, can make Zamazenta flinch in its resolve. It charges at enemies head on with the impregnable shield-like armor that serves as a weapon. By bashing the enemies with its full might, it is said that the power can cause cracks in the land and that the resulting shockwaves can lay waist to hundreds of enemies. By using its [[signature move]], it can go through towering mountains.<ref name=Details>[https://swordshield.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon-galar-region/zamazenta/ ''Pokemon of The Galar Region - Zamazenta'']</ref>

Zamazenta is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of using {{m|Behemoth Bash}}.

* Crowned Shield Zamazenta has the highest base {{stat|Defense}} and {{stat|Special Defense}} stats of all {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon.
* Crowned Shield Zamazenta is the [[List of Pokémon by weight|heaviest]] {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Zamazenta may be based on {{wp|King Arthur}}'s shield, known as {{wp|Excalibur#Arthur's other weapons|Wynebgwrthucher}} or Pridwen. It may also be based on the {{wp|Knights of the Round Table}}, characters under Arthur's order said to work with him to protect the British kingdom. Its relationship with Zacian may reference the relationship between King Arthur and his sister {{wp|Morgan le Fay}}. It otherwise resembles a {{wp|wolf}}, an animal once native to {{wp|Great Britain}} and an important heraldic symbol for noble families during the {{wp|Middle Ages}}. It also resembles the {{wp|Iron Wolf (character)|Iron Wolf}} of ancient {{wp|Lithuanian mythology}}. The armored plating on Zamazenta is similar to that of a {{wp|barding}}, a form of body armor worn by warhorses during the {{wp|Late Middle Ages}}.

The story of Zacian and Zamazenta retreating to the Slumbering Weald to recover from their wounds, and their return in the present day to save Galar, parallels the legend of {{wp|King Arthur's messianic return}}.

Zamazenta's shield's ability to resist any attack, with Zacian's sword being able to cut through anything, could be an example of an {{wp|irresistible force paradox}}. One of the most famous examples of this in folklore include the Chinese tale of a peddler selling a sword and a spear with similar properties, only to be asked what would happen if the two items were to be used against one another. Another example tells of the Greek hunting hound {{wp|Laelaps (mythology)|Laelaps}}, which always caught its prey, being set upon {{wp|Teumessian fox}}, which could never be caught, and had to be turned into constellations to prevent the paradox.

====Name origin====
Zamazenta may be derived from ''the magenta''.

Regional form

Mr.GodzillaMan: /* {{chap|Sword & Shield}} */

[[File:Normal and Alolan Vulpix anime.png|thumb|350px|Kantonian and Alolan {{p|Vulpix}} in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
A '''regional form''' (Japanese: '''リージョンフォーム''' ''Region Form''), previously referred to as a '''regional variant''' in [[Generation VII]], is a [[Pokémon (species)|species]] of Pokémon found in a specific [[region]] that takes on a different form than it does in most other regions. These Pokémon have uniquely adapted to habitats that are different than those where its species naturally live in other parts of the {{pkmn|world}}. As such, many things may be different about them, from their appearance and way of living to even their [[type]], [[move]]s, {{Abilities}}, [[base stats]], [[List of Pokémon by height|height]], and [[List of Pokémon by weight|weight]]. This is analogous to {{wp|peripatric speciation}} in regards to real-world phenomena, where a population that is isolated from the rest of the species develop unique traits and eventually evolve into a new species.

In the [[Alola]] and [[Galar]] regions, certain Pokémon species have regional forms known as an '''Alolan Form''' (Japanese: '''アローラのすがた''' ''Alola Form''), previously '''Alola Form''' in Generation VII, or a '''Galarian Form''' (Japanese: '''ガラルのすがた''' ''Galar Form''), respectively. A Pokémon in these forms are described as Alolan or Galarian—for example, {{p|Meowth}} in its Alolan Form is referred to as Alolan Meowth and Meowth in its Galarian Form is referred to as Galarian Meowth.

When {{pkmn|breeding}} Pokémon whose offspring has a regional form, the offspring's form depends on its parents. If the parent is holding an [[Everstone]] and the resulting offspring belongs to the same species (either female or male in a Ditto pairing), then the offspring will be the same form as the parent. Without an Everstone, the offspring will take on a different form.

There are 32 Pokémon currently known to have regional forms, and there are 33 different regional forms.

==Alolan Form{{anchor|Alola}}==
In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], if a Pokémon evolves from a species that does not have an Alolan Form to one that does, such as {{p|Cubone}}, it will always evolve into its Alolan Form and cannot evolve into its normal form. In [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], the Pokémon will evolve into its Alolan Form while in Alola itself, but can also evolve into its normal form while in [[Ultra Space]].

While [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] take place in [[Kanto]], players can import Alolan Forms from [[Pokémon GO]] or receive them from [[in-game trade]]s. Alolan Forms of Pokémon present in the [[List of Pokémon by Galar Pokédex number|Galar Pokédex]] are unavailable by normal means in {{g|Sword and Shield}} and can only be obtained by transferring them from [[Generation VII]]. An Alolan Meowth even makes a cameo appearance in the [[non-player character|NPC]] [[Pokémon Camp]] on {{rt|7|Galar}}.

==Galarian Form{{anchor|Galar}}==
Unlike Alolan Forms, there are Galarian Forms of Pokémon from beyond Generation I, and several Galarian Forms have an evolution that their regular form does not.

{{p|Slowbro}} and {{p|Slowking}} have Galarian Forms which have not been fully revealed yet.

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

===In Pokémon GO===
[[Alola]]n Pokémon first appeared in [[Pokémon GO]] on May 30, 2018, with the appearance of Alolan {{p|Exeggutor}}. Initially, Alolan Pokémon were exclusive to [[Pokémon Egg|7 km Eggs]] and [[Raid Battle]]s. However, Alolan Exeggutor has reappeared in the {{pkmn2|wild}} on occasion since its initial debut, and Alolan {{p|Rattata}}, {{p|Diglett}}, and {{p|Geodude}} have also infrequently appeared in the wild.

On November 16, 2019, in celebration of the release of [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], [[Galar]]ian {{p|Weezing}} appeared in Pokémon GO as a [[Raid Battle|level 4 Raid Boss]] as soon as {{p|Chimchar}}'s [[Community Day]] ended, with Weezing being present as a Raid Boss in every {{OBP|Gym|GO}}, from 2:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. in every time zone. Since then, Galarian Weezing has been a potential level 4 Raid Boss.

===In Pokémon Masters===
[[Nanu]] and his Alolan {{p|Persian}}, as well as [[Hau]] and his Alolan {{p|Raichu}}, are playable [[sync pair]]s that are obtained in the main storyline.

==In the anime==
==={{series|Sun & Moon}}===
[[File:Treasure Island Alolan Exeggutor.png|thumb|250px|A group of Alolan Exeggutor in the anime]]
Alolan Pokémon have been present in the {{series|Sun & Moon}} since the [[SM001|first episode]]. {{Ash}} first learned about them in ''[[SM002|The Guardian's Challenge!]]'', where {{ashcl|his class}} discussed the difference between Alolan {{p|Exeggutor}} and Exeggutor from other regions.

An Alolan {{p|Persian}} [[nickname]]d Pershie first appeared in ''[[SM007|‪That's Why the Litten is a Scamp!]]'', where it was shown antagonizing a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{AP|Litten}}. It reappeared in ''[[SM083|Dummy, You Shrunk the Kids!]]'' and ''[[SM099|We Know Where You're Going, Eevee!]]''.

Multiple Alolan {{p|Rattata}} and {{p|Raticate}} appeared in ''[[SM009|To Top a Totem!]]'', where they were harassing a farmer on [[Melemele Island]], stealing his crops. [[Hala]] tasked Ash with finding a solution to this problem that doesn't involve battling the pests. Instead, Ash chose to battle the [[Verdant Cavern]] [[Totem Pokémon]], {{p|Gumshoos}}, and enlisted its help to scare the Rattata and Raticate away.

{{an|Lillie}} received a [[Pokémon Egg]] in ''[[SM008|Lillie's Egg-xhilarating Challenge!]]''. It hatched into an Alolan {{p|Vulpix}} she nicknamed [[Snowy]] in ''[[SM013|Racing to a Big Event!]]''. After capturing it in [[SM014|the following episode]], Lillie took her first steps towards overcoming her fear of touching Pokémon.

''[[SM013|Racing to a Big Event!]]'' also featured the debut of Alolan {{p|Raichu}} and {{p|Muk}}. Raichu appeared under the ownership of [[Nina]], while multiple Muk appeared to eat the pancakes dropped during the race.

In ''[[SM023|Getting the Band Back Together!]]'', an Alolan {{p|Dugtrio}} appeared under the ownership of {{an|Professor Kukui}}'s old friend, [[DJ Leo]]. Their musical performance drew the adoration of a wild Alolan {{p|Diglett}}, who later joined as another member of their DJ group.

In ''[[SM025|A Team-on-Team Tussle!]]'', {{TRT}} fought a trio of {{tc|Team Skull Grunt}}s over a [[Darkinium Z]] protected by a Totem Alolan Raticate and Ally Alolan Rattata and Raticate. While [[Jessie]] and [[James]] are ultimately unsuccessful in defeating the Totem, {{MTR}} is able to steal the [[Z-Crystal]] while it is distracted.

An Alolan {{p|Geodude}} debuted in ''[[SM032|Treasure Hunt, Akala Style!]]'', where {{Ash}} attempted to catch it. After a short battle, the Alolan Geodude punched Ash's Poké Ball into his face with a {{m|Thunder Punch}} and then ran away.

In ''[[SM034|A Crowning Moment of Truth!]]'', while Ash and his classmates were visiting [[Wela Volcano Park]] for the Wela Fire Festival, the festivities were interrupted by [[Kiawe's Marowak|a wild Alolan Marowak]], who stole the Wela Crown used in a ceremony. While {{an|Kiawe}} and his {{TP|Kiawe|Turtonator}} were defeated by it during their first challenge, they were able to defeat it in a rematch thanks to Turtonator's newly-learned {{m|Shell Smash}}. After being defeated, Marowak gave back the crown and asked to join Kiawe's [[party]].

Alolan {{p|Sandshrew}} and {{p|Ninetales}} debuted in ''[[SM060|Getting a Jump on the Competition!]]''. The Sandshrew appeared as wild Pokémon native to [[Mount Lanakila]], while Ninetales appeared under the ownership of [[Cerah]].

A wild Alolan {{p|Meowth}} appeared in ''[[SM062|Acting True to Form!]]'', where it came to Team Rocket looking for a worthy master. It manipulated Jessie and James into turning against {{MTR}} by showing off its abilities, and also earned their favor when they realized it could use their Darkinium Z. When {{an|Giovanni}} and [[Matori]] contacted the trio for a report on their activities, the Alolan Meowth became intrigued by them. To this end, it slipped away, stole Meowth's savings, and flew to [[Kanto]] to reach {{an|Team Rocket HQ}}, where Matori made it her assistant due to its craftiness.

An Alolan {{p|Grimer}} appeared in a flashback in ''[[SM065|Turning Heads and Training Hard!]]'', under the ownership of [[Tupp]].

More Alolan Sandshrew appeared in ''[[SM080|Not Caving Under Pressure!]]'' in the caverns underneath Mount Lanakila. Lillie befriended a particularly [[Giant Pokémon|large]] Sandshrew, and helped it reclaim its territory from an aggressive {{p|Tyranitar}}. After the battle, [[Sophocles's Charjabug]] found an [[Ice Stone]], which the Sandshrew promptly used to [[evolution|evolve]] into {{p|Sandslash}}. Sandslash rewarded Lillie with an [[Icium Z]] as a token of gratitude.

An Alolan {{p|Golem}} and Muk appeared in ''[[SM081|A Young Royal Flame Ignites!]]'', under the ownership of members of the [[Revengers]], a heel wrestler group.

Alolan Geodude and {{p|Graveler}} appeared in ''[[SM095|Sparking Confusion!]]'' at [[Wela Volcano Park]], having been driven out by [[rock hunters]] attempting to mine the caves in the area for the food the Pokémon eat. The hunters were attacked by their leader, an Alolan Golem, who began attacking indiscriminately. Thanks to the [[Ultra Guardian]]s' {{p|Metang}}, however, Ash, Kiawe, and Sophocles were able to calm the group of Alolan Pokémon and stop the magnetic interference coming from the Park. The leader Golem later joined a trio of {{tc|Hiker}}s who volunteered to help with future patrols of Wela Volcano Park.

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

==Trivia==
[[File:Alolan Evolution VII.png|thumb|250px|{{p|Pikachu}} evolving into Alolan {{p|Raichu}} in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon]]]]
* In [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon]], when a Pokémon undergoes [[evolution]] into a regional form, the background in the evolution animation is green, as opposed to the blue background for all other Pokémon. Conversely, when a [[Pokémon Egg]] hatches into a regional form, the background is blue instead of yellow. Additionally, a different arrangement of the evolution music is played in both of these situations.
* All non-Alolan Pokémon that can evolve into an Alola Form have a [[signature move]].
* {{p|Meowth}} is the only known Pokémon to have both an Alolan and Galarian Form.
** It is also the only Pokémon to have both a regional form and a [[Gigantamax]] form.
* All fully evolved Galarian Form Pokémon and/or their regional evolved forms have a signature move or a [[signature Ability]].
** Galarian {{p|Stunfisk}} is the only Pokémon to have both a signature {{m|Snap Trap|move}} and {{a|Mimicry|Ability}}.
* {{p|Slowpoke}} is the only Pokémon with a regional form that has a branched evolution.
** It is also the only Pokémon to not only not gain a new [[type]] in its regional form, but also lose one type without changing the other.
* Currently, no Pokémon that were introduced in [[Generation IV]], [[Generation VI]], or [[Generation VII]] have a regional form.
* {{p|Slowbro}} is the only Pokémon to have both a regional form and a [[Mega Evolution]].
