==Head and tail fins==

One thing I noticed is that while Marshtomp has one head fin and two tail fins, Swampert has two head fins and one tail fin, literally reversing. Should this be mentioned in either of their physiology segments? --[[User:Yurtablemoron|Yurtablmoron]] 10:12PM, 25 February 2010

They seam like orgers too me, dos anyone else see this?--[[User:Cerberus|Cerberus]] 14:59, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
:There isn't really much similarity. --[[User:Fabu-Vinny|FabuVinny]] [[User talk:Fabu-Vinny|T]]-[[Special:Contributions/Fabu-Vinny|C]]-[[User:Fabu-Vinny/Sandbox|S]] 19:09, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

There big mean and live in swamps. [[User:Cerberus|Cerberus]] 14:37, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
Orges are considered aquatic now? Orges can surf? What's going on?! {{ani|281}}[[User:TinaTheKirlia|Tina]][[User:TinaTheKirlia/Sandbox|☆]][[User:TinaTheKirlia/Favorites|♥]][[User talk:TinaTheKirlia|♫]][http://freewebs.com/thepixelcafe δ]{{MS|281|Kirlia}} 17:08, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

I'm really sick of people who bring stupid "similarities". --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 17:13, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

:Same here. No, when I think of Swampert, rather, I see [[Wallace]] for some freakin weird reason. Don't know why, as there isn't many similarities... not orges. :P {{ani|281}}[[User:TinaTheKirlia|Tina]][[User:TinaTheKirlia/Sandbox|☆]][[User:TinaTheKirlia/Favorites|♥]][[User talk:TinaTheKirlia|♫]][http://freewebs.com/thepixelcafe δ]{{MS|281|Kirlia}} 17:18, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
::Ogres are like onions. Therefore, Farfetch'd. '''[[User:TTEchidna|TTE]][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 23:48, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

OK OK I get the idea. [[User:Cerberus|Cerberus]] 17:30, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Did anyone yet consider Swampert's name to be derived from 'hurt'? I figured it would make sense as Marshtomp is probably derived from 'stomp'. [[User:Wojjan|Wojjan]] 13:22, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

==Edit Request==
{{Animedexheader|Hoenn}}
{{Animedexbody|AG032|Swampert|Ash's Pokédex|Swampert, the Mud Fish Pokémon. Swampert is the evolved form of Marshtomp. It is able to easily drag large stone weighing over 1 ton. It is also able to see through cloudy waters and detect approaching storms with its fin.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|Advanced|Hoenn}}

==Another Edit Request==
I use this site all the time and love it, and after many years finally noticed an error - Swampert's TM learnset (at least the one for Gen III) is missing TM 31 Brick Break. I've never edited a wiki site before so I'm a bit timid to do it myself, but if someone has a minute? Also not sure if Swampert can learn TM 31 in all generations.

:Thank you for pointing that out. It's been added. Thank you. --[[User:PsychicRider|'''P S Y''']][[User talk:PsychicRider|'''ライダー''']]''[[Special:Contributions/PsychicRider|'''☮''']]'' 20:56, 23 May 2011 (UTC)

== Friendship Bases ==

Not just here, but I think all pokemon should have their base friendship values on their pages.

'''Misdreavus''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ムウマ''' ''Muma'') is a {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Mismagius}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Dusk Stone}}.

==Biology==
Misdreavus is a dark bluish-green, ghost-like Pokémon. While it has no visible arms or legs, its lower half has several small appendages and resembles a ruffled dress. It has a several round, red gems around its neck, which are used to absorb fear as nourishment. It has long, flowing lilac-tipped "hair". Misdreavus's large eyes have yellow sclera with red irises.

Misdreavus lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|caves}}. As a [[nocturnal]] Pokémon, it spends its days sleeping in darkness and its nights startling people with mischievous tricks. Since it loves watching frightened people, it is known to yank and bite at people's hair or sneak up on them and cry and shriek. Previously, it was the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that could learn {{m|Pain Split}} by level up.

[[Katie]] battled {{Ash}} with a Misdreavus during the [[Hoenn League]] in ''[[AG128|Shocks and Bonds]]''. Although [[Ash's Glalie]] defeated it, the Screech Pokémon used {{m|Destiny Bond}}, which caused Glalie to get knocked out.

A Misdreavus appeared in [[PK15]].

* Misdreavus's [[The Legend of Thunder!|first]] [[EP259|two]] {{pkmn|anime}} appearances both involved [[Legendary beasts]] ({{p|Raikou}} and {{p|Entei}}).
* Misdreavus can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Murkrow}}. Both of them are {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} whose only [[evolution]]ary event utilizes a {{evostone|Dusk Stone}} to become their {{p|Mismagius|evolved}} {{p|Honchkrow|forms}}, both of which were introduced in [[Generation IV]]. Misdreavus is exclusive to {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Pokémon LeafGreen|s}}, {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pearl|s}}, and {{game3|Black and White|White|s}} while {{p|Murkrow}} is exclusive to FireRed, Diamond, and Black.

===Origin===
Misdreavus' nocturnal habits of wailing to frighten people and its similarity in appearance to a disembodied head are shared by various mythological creatures. One of these is the {{wp|Rokurokubi#Rokurokubi whose heads come off (nukekubi)|nukekubi}}, which shares the similarities of nocturnal habits, flying about as a decapitated head, and wailing to increase its victims' fright. Another possible origin is the {{wp|banshee}}, a female spirit from Gaelic folklore who was known for its unearthly wailing and screaming. It is also possible that it was based on a {{wp|Lang Suir}}, a type of vampire in Malaysian mythology known to appear as a flying decapitated head of a woman.

====Name origin====
Misdreavus is a corruption of ''mischievous''. It may also be any combination of ''mistress'', ''miscreant'' (due to the way it always scares people), ''dream'', ''dread'', ''dreary'', and ''reave'' (to rob).

Muma may be a corruption of 夢魔 ''muma'' (''nightmare'' or a demon in a dream).

The '''Pokémon Trainer''' (Japanese: '''ポケモントレーナー''' ''Pokémon Trainer'') is a playable character in the ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' series. He is playable in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''.

==Core mechanics==
Unlike any other character, Pokémon Trainer doesn't actually fight his opponents himself. Instead, he sends out his [[party|Pokémon team]] of {{p|Squirtle}}, {{p|Ivysaur}}, and {{p|Charizard}} to fight on his behalf, each with its own set of moves, strengths, and weaknesses. The Trainer is able to switch between the three Pokémon using the Down-Special move, Pokémon Change, which each Pokémon has access to. If a Pokémon fights for too long it will gradually weaken. The Pokémon Trainer's [[Final Smash]], {{DL|Final Smash|Triple Finish}}, is performed by all three Pokémon at once.

During a fight, the Pokémon Trainer can be seen in the background, using hand signals and commands to direct his Pokémon, and running across the screen (on large stages) so he can be near his Pokémon at all times. When his Pokémon are defeated, he remains in the background, but pulls his hat over his eyes and assumes a defeated posture.
===Type effectiveness===
A {{sbw|type effectiveness|simplified form}} of [[type effectiveness]] is implemented for each of the three Pokémon: Squirtle is weak to grass and resists fire, Ivysaur is weak to fire and resists water, and Charizard is weak to water and resists grass. A resisted attack does 0.9x knockback, while a super-effective attack does 1.1x knockback. On the whole, this system has minimal effect, as no characters aside from another Pokémon Trainer (or a Kirby having copied one) have access to damaging grass and water attacks. However, several characters have KO-capable fire attacks, which overall gives Squirtle more survivability and cuts Ivysaur's noticably. It also heavily affects matches where one Pokémon Trainer faces another, as each player will try to switch to gain the advantage.
===Pokémon Change===
[[File:Pokemon Change.png|thumb|The order in which Pokémon Change will rotate (Squirtle→Ivysaur→Charizard)]]
'''Pokémon Change''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンチェンジ''' ''Pokémon Change'') is {{ga|Red|Pokémon Trainer}}'s down special move in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]. Unlike other special moves being exclusive to one [[Pokémon]] (for instance, {{m|Rock Smash}} only being available to {{p|Charizard}}), Pokémon Change is universal between {{p|Squirtle}}, {{p|Ivysaur}}, and {{p|Charizard}} (as is Triple Finish).

When sent out, each Pokémon is initially granted 100 points of energy called stamina. 0.5 points of stamina is deducted for every second a Pokémon is in battle, thus allowing for a maximum of approximately 3 minutes and 20 second of normal performance. Executing an attack also drains 0.5 stamina points. When a Pokémon's stamina reaches 40, their stance will change to signal oncoming fatigue. Once stamina reaches 0, the Pokémon's attacks drop in effectiveness to 0.7x damage. When any Pokémon is knocked out, the stamina of all three is increased by 1.3x.

Pokémon Change mimics {{pkmn|anime}}/{{pkmn|manga}}-style battling by [[Recall|switching out]] to the next available Pokémon to let the previously used one rest. This is reflected in that while not in battle, each Pokémon will regenerate 0.8 points of stamina per second until restored to 100.

While switching out, the user is temporarily immune to any on-screen attacks. Damage percentage is still carried over. Effects such as increased or decreased size held by the previous Pokémon will ''not'' be carried over during Pokémon Change ([[Final Smash]] wielding being one exception). Pokémon Change cannot be activated in midair.

Pokémon Change is disabled in [[The Subspace Emissary]] until the player obtains Ivysaur; it is then limited until Charizard is obtained.

|desc={{main|sbw:Squirtle (SSBB)|Squirtle on SmashWiki}}
Squirtle is a fast, lightweight fighter and uses various attacks using its shell and jets of water. It can use {{m|Waterfall}} to dash upward on a wave of water to recover from falls, {{m|Withdraw}} to retreat into its shell and propel itself forward while shooting water out; which makes up for its below-average dash speed. It also uses {{m|Water Gun}} to push enemies backward with a chargeable stream of water, but does no damage at all (unless fired without charging it up, though it also shortens the range). Because of its lightweight build, it excels in aerial combat and is hard to combo, but is easy to knock around and KO. Squirtle is also the shortest-ranged of the 3 Pokémon and needs to be in close range to deal damage, due to its small size and poor reach. It uses {{m|Hydro Pump}} in the Pokémon Trainer's Final Smash, {{DL|Final Smash|Triple Finish}}.

In the {{sbw|Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|Subspace Emissary}}, Squirtle is the first Pokémon to appear alongside the Pokémon Trainer. It is sent out to assist a distraught {{wb|Lucas}}.

|vajp=Tomoko Kawakami

|desc={{main|sbw:Ivysaur (SSBB)|Ivysaur on SmashWiki}}
In many ways, Ivysaur is the balance between the heavyweight, hard-hitting {{p|Charizard}} and the lightweight, agile {{p|Squirtle}}. Despite this, it lacks the heavy-hitting moves of Charizard and the fast attack rate of Squirtle. It is very good at racking up damage percentages with its attacks, but has a very hard time KOing its opponent since its strongest finishing moves are too slow to pose a threat. Ivysaur especially suffers in aerial combat and recovery. Despite these flaws, Ivysaur can be used to irritate its foes and rack up damage with its attacks (especially Bullet Seed). Its throws are decent, as its forward and down throws can leave the opponent vulnerable to combos. It uses mostly [[physical]] {{type|Grass}} attacks, such as {{m|Bullet Seed}}, a rapidly upward-hitting move, and {{m|Vine Whip}}, a tether recovery move that shoots vines out to latch onto edges of a stage and pull Ivysaur up. Like all tether recoveries, however, Vine Whip can be {{tt|edgehogged|when a player occupies the ledge, preventing a recovering player from using it}}, sending Ivysaur to its doom. It also uses the projectile attack {{m|Razor Leaf}}. It uses {{m|SolarBeam}} in the Pokémon Trainer's Final Smash, {{DL|Final Smash|Triple Finish}}.

In the {{sbw|Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|Subspace Emissary}}, Ivysaur is found by the Pokémon Trainer, Squirtle, and Lucas after an encounter with {{wb|Ness}}'s captor, {{smw|Wario}}. This allows the Pokémon Trainer to use [[Pokémon Change]] in the story mode.

Charizard is the Pokémon Trainer's powerhouse, boasting heavy-hitting moves, above-average dash speed (slightly faster than Pikachu), and long-range attacks. Charizard's drawbacks include large weight, subpar aerial game, and slow walking speed. Its varied arsenal of attacks includes {{m|Rock Smash}}, a powerful frontal attack, and {{m|Fly}}, a recovery move that sends Charizard skyward and allows it to glide. It can also use Flamethrower to attack from a short distance, but its power decreases over time. It uses {{m|Fire Blast}} in the Pokémon Trainer's Final Smash, {{DL|Final Smash|Triple Finish}}.

In the {{sbw|Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|Subspace Emissary}}, Charizard is found shortly after Ivysaur, completing the Trainer's team.

==Subspace Emissary==
The Pokémon Trainer is first encountered by {{wb|Lucas}} in the Ruined Zoo. For most of the game, the two are paired together. Pokémon Trainer's mission is to capture Charizard and Ivysaur while Lucas's is to save {{wb|Ness}}. On their way to {{sbw|the Ruins}}, the two are ambushed by {{smw|Wario}}, who is eventually defeated by the two. Later in {{sbw|The Ruined Hall}}, they are attacked by {{sbw|Galleom}}. Once defeated, it sets off a time bomb. Lucas saves the Pokémon Trainer, and they are then both saved by {{wk|Meta Knight}} who carries them away from the explosion, which sucks up Wario's trophy into Subspace. From then on, the two join Meta Knight, {{sbw|Marth}}, and {{sbw|Ike}} on their quest to take down the {{sbw|Subspace Army}}.

:'''Solid Snake:''' ''"So he makes his Pokémon fight while he sits back and watches. Sounds like a good deal if you ask me."''
:'''Roy Campbell:''' ''"It's not like that, Snake. Those Pokémon wouldn't know what to do if the Pokémon Trainer [[Wild Pokémon|wasn't there giving orders]]. In every {{pkmn|battle}}, there's a soldier doing the fighting, and a commander telling him what to do. By working together as a team, they accomplish much more than either could on their own. So let's do this together, partner."''
:'''Solid Snake:''' ''"…Yeah… Whatever you say, Colonel."''

==Trophy information==

===Pokémon Trainer===
''"A person who {{tc|Pokémon Breeder|raises Pokémon}} and [[Pokémon training|trains]] them as [[Party|partners]] in battle. In battle, a Trainer gives [[Move|orders]] to the Pokémon and uses [[item]]s. It's not an exaggeration to say {{pkmn|battle}}s can be won or lost on a Trainer's single [[Damage modification|strategic move]]. Trainers pour their [[Friendship|hearts]] into their Pokémon and share anger, sadness, and joy as they adventure in hopes of becoming [[Pokémon Master]]s."''

===Triple Finish===
''"The Final Smash of the Pokémon Trainer. Squirtle, Ivysaur, and Charizard join forces to simultaneously use {{m|Hydro Pump}}, {{m|SolarBeam}}, and {{m|Fire Blast}}. This is the only time all three of them appear on the screen together, so this move boasts the strength of three in one. A window will appear on the screen saying "It's {{DL|Damage modification|super effective}}!" when the attack hits."''

===Charizard===
''"A Flame Pokémon. Its fiery breath is hot enough to burn up rocks, and its wings let it fly up to 4,600 feet into the air. It's a proud Pokémon that will never use its flame breath on an opponent weaker than itself. The flame on its tail is a barometer of how much vitality it has remaining. Its signature move, {{m|Flamethrower}}, is a reliable technique."''

===Squirtle===
''"A Tiny Turtle Pokémon. In times of danger, it pulls its arms and legs inside its shell to protect itself from enemy attacks. When it conceals its neck, it also shoots a powerful stream of water from its mouth. Its shell not only protects its body, it also reduces water friction when it's in the water. When it levels up, it evolves into {{p|Wartortle}}."''

===Ivysaur===
''"A Seed Pokémon that is the evolved form of {{p|Bulbasaur}}. It has a flower bulb on its back, the weight of which has made it develop strong legs and hips. If the blossom gets too big, the Pokémon can't stand on two legs alone. At a certain level, it evolves into {{p|Venusaur}}. When this happens, the bulb absorbs nutrients and blossoms into a large-petaled flower."''

==Trivia==
* The Pokémon Trainer is a [[Cross-canon counterparts|cross-canon counterpart]] of {{ga|Red}}, specifically based on his appearance in {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}.
* In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, the Pokémon Trainer bears a few similarities to {{sbw|Olimar (SSBB)|Olimar}} and {{sbw|Zelda (SSBB)|Zelda}}, two other fighters. Olimar can also command creatures to fight for him, both also have Tether Recoveries (but only with Ivysaur), and they can both also change whoever they are using. Unlike Olimar, Zelda can change between playable characters ({{sbw|Sheik (SSBB)|Sheik}}) with her Down Special Move, similar to the way Pokémon Trainer does.
* Despite having above-average dash speed, Charizard has the slowest walking speed in ''Brawl''.
* Ivysaur sheds leaves as it moves.
* If Ivysaur is grabbed, the opposing character grabs its bulb rather than its whole body, even when grabbing in front of it.
* Squirtle is tied with Olimar as the smallest playable characters in the game.
* Even though Squirtle is a Water-type Pokémon with the ability to swim, it can still drown when swimming in water for too long.
* Even though Charizard's flame goes out if it touches water, Charizard can swim and his flame will stay alive.
* The Pokémon Trainer and the rest of the fighters (excluding villains) are defeated instantly in the Subspace Emissary upon reaching Tabuu and being hit by his Off Waves. Because he does not fight opponents directly, this is the only time in the entire game when the Trainer himself is knocked out (KO'd).
* There are unused animations of the Pokémon Trainer jumping and landing in the game.
* When playing the [[Subspace Emissary]], the Pokémon Trainer starts out only with Squirtle, and must catch Ivysaur and Charizard along the course of the adventure.

'''Jigglypuff''' (Japanese: '''プリン''' ''Purin'') is a playable character in the ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' series.

==In [[Super Smash Bros.]]==
[[File:Jigglypuff Smash64.png|thumb|right|100px|Artwork of Jigglypuff from [[Super Smash Bros.]]]]
Jigglypuff is a playable character, but it must be unlocked by clearing the 1-Player mode with any character. Jigglypuff has one of the best recoveries in the game and can use its low-power aerial attacks to combo larger and heavier opponents easily, but it also the lightest character and thus very easy to knock off the stage. Jigglypuff shares the {{st|Saffron City}} stage with {{SSB|Pikachu}}.

Jigglypuff's moves are {{m|Pound}}, a basic move when the B-button is pressed, {{m|Sing}} which causes opponents to fall asleep, is the Up-B move, and {{m|Rest}} will send a foe flying if they are close enough, but if it misses, Jigglypuff is very vulnerable. This is Jigglypuff's Down-B move.

{{SmashMoves|type=Normal|game=Smash|img=yes
|Spe=Pound|SpeM=yes|SpeImg=Jigglypuff Pound SSB.png
|SpeU=Sing|SpeUM=yes|SpeUImg=Jigglypuff Sing SSB.png
|SpeD=Rest|SpeDM=yes|SpeDImg=Jigglypuff Rest SSB.jpg}}

===Description===
''The Balloon PKMN with the big, round eyes. It sings a soothing melody, sending those that hear it to sleep. When mad, it puffs itself up. As a Balloon PKMN, its body is light, weak, and easy to knock away.''

==In [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]==
[[File:Jigglypuff Melee.jpg|thumb|300px|Jigglypuff in [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] (Japanese)]]
Jigglypuff appears again in the sequel, Super Smash Bros. Melee, but like the first game, it must be unlocked first by completing Classic Mode with any character. It shares the {{st|Pokémon Stadium}} with {{SSB|Pikachu}}, {{SSB|Mewtwo}} and {{SSB|Pichu}}. Jigglypuff's Pound attack is moved to its Side-B attack, and instead, {{m|Rollout}} is Jigglypuff's new B attack. When the player holds B Jigglypuff will begin to charge. It can be let go at any time, though the longer it is charged, the stronger the attack will be. The move is sometimes hard to control.

Jigglypuff has a combination of attributes—fast aerial movement, quick and strong aerial attacks, and multiple jumps—that give it very strong aerial combat abilities, while Rest can end an opponent's stock at surprisingly early percentages and can be comboed into with little chance of escape against fast-falling characters. On the other hand, many characters find it easy to KO Jigglypuff due to its light weight, and its grounded attacks are poor in speed.

|SpeU=Sing|SpeUM=yes|SpeUImg=Jigglypuff Sing SSBM.jpg
|SpeD=Rest|SpeDM=yes|SpeDImg=Jigglypuff Rest SSBM.jpg}}

===Trophy Information===
====Classic Mode====
''This Balloon Pokémon invites its opponents in close with its big, round eyes and then puts them to sleep with a soothing lullaby. It puffs itself up when angry, and while it may look adorable, it's not to be trifled with; it knows several powerful techniques. Jigglypuff evolves into {{p|Wigglytuff}} after exposure to a {{evostone|Moon Stone}}.''

====Adventure Mode====
''Jigglypuff's normal attacks are weak, and because of its light weight it's easily sent flying. However, with its incredible midair agility, it seems to dance when airborne. Rollout is a powerful speed attack, but players must be careful not to fly off the edge. Pound does serious damage, and it can also help as a recovery move.''

====All-Star Mode====
''Jigglypuff can put its enemies to sleep if they are in range of its Sing attack, although the attack does not work on airborne foes. Rest puts Jigglypuff into a deep sleep, but at the instant it drops off, an intense energy force radiates out of the exact center of its body. If this force comes in contact with an enemy, look out! Rest is Jigglypuff's wild card.''

==In [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]==
[[File:Jigglypuff SSBB.png|200px|thumb|Jigglypuff in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]
Jigglypuff appears again in Super Smash Bros. Brawl and must be unlocked. The player can unlock Jigglypuff through the {{sbw|Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary}}, which Jigglypuff plays no major role in. Like the other characters, Jigglypuff receives a [[Final Smash]] this time around. It is called "Puff Up" and it makes Jigglypuff grow to a giant state, knocking out players that come too close to it. After a short amount of time, Jigglypuff shrinks back down to normal size.

Jigglypuff remains mostly unchanged from ''Melee'' to ''Brawl'', possessing strong aerial combat while being slow and weak on the ground. It is mostly the game that changed around it - the lower falling speeds of all characters improved other characters' aerial abilities, reducing Jigglypuff's relative advantage. Rest has also been substantially weakened, and can no longer be used for surprise KOs at low percentages.

===Role in "The Subspace Emissary"===
Jigglypuff, like {{sbw|Wolf (SSBB)|Wolf}} and {{sbw|Toon Link (SSBB)|Toon Link}}, has no real role in the Subspace Emissary. After the player defeats {{sbw|Tabuu}}, Jigglypuff becomes unlockable by going halfway through the "The Swamp" area to find a secret door. Through that door, Jigglypuff appears dancing on the {{st|Pokémon Stadium 2}}. The player then must defeat Jigglypuff in battle to unlock it.

==={{sbw|Codec}} information (on {{sbw|Shadow Moses Island}})===
*'''{{sbw|Solid Snake}}:''' ''"Aw, there's a big eyeball walking around here..."''
*'''{{sbw|Colonel Roy Campbell|Roy Campbell}}:''' ''"That's just Jigglypuff."''
*'''Solid Snake:''' ''"Jigglypuff? That some kind of marshmallow?"''
*'''Roy Campbell:''' ''"Jigglypuff is a balloon-shaped {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. It may be light and puffy and full of air, but its {{m|Rest|Sleep}} ability is devastating."''
*'''Solid Snake:''' ''"Sleep...? What's so devastating about it going to sleep?"''
*'''Roy Campbell:''' ''"The instant it falls asleep, there's a huge buildup of energy in its center of gravity. If it hits you, it's lights out for sure."''
*'''Solid Snake:''' ''"So it puts a lot of energy into sleeping? Sounds pretty irresponsible if you ask me."''
*'''Roy Campbell:''' ''"Takes all kinds, Snake. Especially here in 'Brawl.'"''

===Trophy information===
====Jigglypuff====
''A Balloon Pokémon. It invites opponents in close with its big, round eyes, then puts them to sleep with a calming song. The secret to the song's unfailing efficacy is Jigglypuff's ability to sing on the wavelength that will make its opponent the sleepiest. It also uses Attract to infatuate opponents who touch it. It uses a Moon Stone to evolve into Wigglytuff.''

====Puff Up====
''Jigglypuff's Final Smash. It wills its body to get bigger and bigger and bigger. It can't move, and it can't attack--all it can do is get bigger while everyone else looks on. However, it's invulnerable, and it overpowers all attacks to gradually push its opponents off the screen. It's a very simple technique, but how it's used determines its effectiveness.''

==Trivia==
* Jigglypuff is the only character to keep its original voice track through all three games.
* In one of Jigglypuff's palette swaps in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, its hat bears resemblance to {{ga|Leaf}}'s hat.
* Jigglypuff is the only playable Pokèmon in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' to have its type changed over the years.

Jigglypuff's first appearance was in ''[[EP045|The Song of Jigglypuff]]'', where it was found standing on a stump. {{an|Misty}} tried to capture it with her {{TP|Misty|Staryu}}, but decided otherwise when she learned that the Jigglypuff could not {{m|sing}}. After {{Ash}} and his friends had thwarted [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}'s plan to capture Jigglypuff, they agreed to restore the Balloon Pokémon's voice. They succeeded when {{an|Brock}} gave it a piece of fruit which soothed its throat. Now capable of singing, it performed for them, putting everyone within hearing range to sleep. This upset Jigglypuff, which angrily dug into Ash's [[bag|backpack]] and pulled out a marker which it used to draw on the faces of everyone who fell asleep. When Ash and his friends awoke, they saw that it was still unhappy. After a similar failure with their Pokémon ({{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} appeared to have succeeded at first but was soon discovered to merely be sleeping with its eyes open), Ash and his friends promised to find someone who could listen to its song without falling asleep. Later, it sang for the people in [[Neon Town]], putting the whole town to sleep (and scribbling on everyone's face afterward).
[[File:Mad Jigglypuff.png|thumb|200px|Jigglypuff angry after it failed to perform]]
Jigglypuff then follows the gang throughout their journey until part-way through the {{series|Advanced Generation}}. It set a goal to accomplish what it had failed to in the first episode: to have someone listen to its song in its entirety without falling asleep. It made yet another appearance in ''[[EP058|Riddle Me This]]'' where it sang most of its song, putting {{Gary}} and his {{TP|Gary|cheerleaders}} to sleep. It appeared in the next episode, and many other episodes to come, following Ash and always looking for opportunities to sing on a stage or for a crowd.

====Johto====
This goal was mentioned by {{MTR}} during a conversation between the two Pokémon in ''[[EP149|Tunnel Vision]]'', when they made a short-lived agreement to pursue their dreams together. Jigglypuff became absorbed in its dream to become a famous singer, tending to shift between reality and fantasy. Because of this, it frequently went great lengths to protect its microphone-like marker. Jigglypuff made a small cameo at the beginning of ''[[M04|Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]'' and ''[[M05|Pokémon Heroes]]''. It seems to have a desire to become a Pokémon diva of some sort, but currently its primary goal is to find someone who can listen to its song the whole way through.
[[File:BW ED 04 Jigglypuff.png|thumb|220px|Jigglypuff in the ending ''Look Look☆Here'']]

===Advanced Generation series===
Jigglypuff appears only once in {{series|Advanced Generation}}, in the episode ''[[AG039|A Poké-BLOCK Party!]]''. It has not appeared since then, except in the form of a karaoke mike in ''[[AG142|Caterpie's Big Dilemma]]'', which had a miniature Jigglypuff on it complete with its own tiny marker.

===Other appearances===
Based on how scarcely it is seen at this point, the Jigglypuff which followed Ash through a large portion of his journey may have faded from the anime cast completely. However, it has been parodied, notably in ''[[PK18|Pikachu's Exploration Club]]'', where a {{p|Marill}} frequently appeared, singing, putting {{MTR}} and Team Rocket's other Pokémon to sleep, and getting angry, causing it to puff up.

Jigglypuff was most recently featured in the ending theme ''[[Look Look☆Here]]''.

==Personality and characteristics==
Jigglypuff is characterized by its sassy attitude and love of attention. In ''[[EP045|The Song of Jigglypuff]]'', it secretly attacks Pikachu as an envious response to Ash's affection for his Pokémon. Similarly, in ''[[EP243|Same Old Song and Dance]]'', it bullies two {{p|Igglybuff}} who perform with their Trainer {{jo|Brittany}}. Jigglypuff is also quick-tempered, ending potential friendships with those who upset it (like with Meowth in ''[[EP149|Tunnel Vision]]'').
[[File:Jigglypuff karaoke mike.png|thumb|200px|left|Jigglypuff depicted on a karaoke mike]]
Jigglypuff is perhaps best known, however, for its running gag. Whenever it saw that its song put its listeners to sleep, it would inflate angrily, making a distinctive "honk" sound, then doodle over the faces of its audience with its marker. However, there have been two instances in which characters have listened to a portion of its song without getting drowsy: the first being during Jigglypuff's first performance in ''[[EP045|The Song of Jigglypuff]]'', and the second during its brief appearance in ''[[EP054|Case of the K-9 Capers]]'', when {{Ash}} and {{Ashfr}} were trying to fight off a brainwashed {{p|Growlithe}} Squad. In ''[[AG039|A Poké-BLOCK Party!]]'', its song is finally heard completely by a {{p|Whismur}}, though the Whismur would faint during Jigglypuff's second performance due to exhaustion from a previous unrelated battle.

Besides its marker, Jigglypuff also has a voice-changing microphone which it picked up in ''[[EP054|Case of the K-9 Capers]]'', but it has yet to use it. It is assumed that this item was intended to be reused in a different plot but was abandoned, much like the [[GS Ball]].

Jigglypuff came close to achieving this goal in ''[[AG039|A Poké-BLOCK Party!]]'' when it met a {{p|Whismur}} whose {{a|Soundproof}} Ability negated the effects of the song, though the friendship between the two was short lived because the Whismur ended up passing out from exhaustion the second time Jigglypuff sang, making Jigglypuff think its song had put its new friend to sleep.

==In the games==
[[File:Jigglypuff Zany Cards.png|thumb|200px|Jigglypuff in [[Pokémon Zany Cards]]]]
===Pokémon Yellow===
In {{game|Yellow}}, there is a Jigglypuff at the {{ci|Pewter}} [[Pokémon Center]]. If it is interacted with, it will sing its song, which will put [[Red's Pikachu (game)|Pikachu]] to sleep. Pikachu will remain where it is standing until the player leaves the center, if player talks to it or uses the Poké Flute while standing next to it. [[Nurse Joy]] will note the sleeping Pikachu if she is spoken to, and will not heal the player's party until Pikachu is awoken. If the player tries to deposit Pikachu in the PC, the PC will state there is "No response". Jigglypuff is also present at the Pewter Pokémon Center in the other [[Generation I]] games, the [[Generation II]] games, and their {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s|respective}} {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s|remakes}}. In Generation I and FireRed and LeafGreen, while it sings just like in Yellow, its song has no effect, likely due to all six of the player's Pokémon being in Poké Balls. In Generation II and HeartGold and SoulSilver, it does not sing.

===Pokémon Snap===
A Jigglypuff—which may be this same Jigglypuff—appears in the [[Pokémon Island Cave|Cave]] area of [[Pokémon Snap]]. It and two other Jigglypuff are being harassed by a trio of {{p|Koffing}}. They leave after being saved by the player, but return at the end of the course to {{m|Sing}} for the camera. The center-most one uses a marker as a microphone, and inflates itself in anger in the same manner if the [[Poké Flute]] is played over its singing.
===Pokémon Zany Cards===
In Special Seven mode, Jigglypuff appears as card #3. When Jigglypuff is used, it will sing the opponent to sleep (becoming enraged in the process), forcing them to miss a turn.

'''Aggron''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ボスゴドラ''' ''Bossgodora'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Rock}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Lairon}} starting at [[level]] 42. It is the final form of {{p|Aron}}. It can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Aggron''' using the {{DL|Mega Stone|Aggronite}}.

==Biology==
Aggron is a huge, bipedal Pokémon. It is primarily black with plates of silver-colored armor. The armor on its head has two pairs of holes with horns protruding from the foremost holes. Its forehead plating extends past its upper jaw in a small point. It has sky-blue eyes, and a nostril-like hole on the tip of its upper jaw. On the rim of its mouth are several pointed, fang-like protrusions and the nape of its neck and back have gray-silver armor sections. It has wide, blunt spikes on its shoulders, and gray-silver bands on its arms and legs. Its hands and feet each have three claws. It has a thick, long, black tail that it can swing at enemies.

Mega Aggron is bulkier and more heavily plated than its previous state. The horns on its forehead are now shorter, and it has a third, wider horn on its nose. Using its horns, it is said to be able to destroy a steel tank<ref>http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/#Aggron</ref>. A spike projects downward from both its upper and lower jaw. The protrusions on its shoulders are longer and curve toward its head, and new spikes thrust from holes in its armbands. Its tail is thicker with two bands around it.

The gouges in Aggron's armor from previous battles are worn as mementos. The more wounds it has, the more it has battled. It claims a large {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountain}} as its territory and fiercely defends it from trespassers. If its environment is damaged by a flood or a forest fire, it will restore the area by bringing in topsoil and planting trees. It burrows through the strongest of bedrock and digs tunnels, as it searches for iron to eat. Its horns, which it uses to dig through bedrock when seeking food, grow a little longer at a time and can be used to determine its age.

==Trivia==
* With {{a|Heavy Metal}}, Aggron is the heaviest non-Legendary Pokémon, and both the heaviest {{t|Steel}}-type Pokémon and {{t|Rock}}-type Pokémon.
** As it is the heaviest Pokémon that can learn it and gets STAB from it, {{m|Heavy Slam}} is most potent with Aggron.
* Aggron is the heaviest Pokémon that can Mega Evolve (even without Heavy Metal), and Mega Aggron is the heaviest Mega-Evolved Pokémon.
* Aggron is the only dual-typed Pokémon to become a single-typed Pokémon upon Mega Evolution.
* Mega Aggron is the only pure Steel-type Pokémon that isn't genderless.
* Mega Aggron is tied with {{p|Shuckle}} for the highest base {{stat|Defense}} stat of all Pokémon.
** Mega Aggron has the highest base stat total of all non-legendary Steel-type Pokémon.
* Mega Aggron is the only Pokèmon that loses its old type and doesnt replace it.

===Origin===
Based on the fact that it eats the iron, it may draw inspiration from ''{{wp|Pulgasari}}'', a monster which eats iron in Korean legend. It may also be based on a ''{{wp|Triceratops}}'' and various {{wp|therapods}}.

====Name origin====
Aggron may be a combination of ''aggressive'', ''{{wp|iron}}'', and ''don''. It may also involve ''aggro'' (British slang for ''aggression'').

Bossgodora may be a combination of ''boss'' and ''dragon'', or may be a combination of ''boss'' and ''Kodora'' ({{p|Lairon}}'s Japanese name). It may also involve ''god''.

==In other languages==

'''Zekrom''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ゼクロム''' ''Zekrom'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dragon|Electric}} [[Legendary Pokémon]].

It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.

Zekrom is the version mascot of [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|Pokémon White]], appearing on the boxart.

Along with {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Kyurem}}, it is a member of the [[Tao trio]], which exists in the legends of the [[Unova]] Region.

{{p|Kyurem}} will become [[Form differences#Kyurem|Black Kyurem]] upon using the {{key|V|DNA Splicers}} to fuse with Zekrom.

==Biology==
[[File:644Zekrom-Activated.png|thumb|left|Zekrom's tail turbine activated]]
Zekrom is a black, bipedal Pokémon resembling a dragon or dinosaur, with dark patches on various portions of its body. It has red scleras, white irises, and black pupils, as well as a small horn-like protrusion on the tip of its snout. Its head sports a thundercloud-like crest tipped with light-blue coloration. There are two pairs of pointed teeth visible when its mouth is open, one in the upper jaw and one in the lower. At the base of its neck is a black, stud-like feature, and atop its shoulders are similar, larger features resembling armor padding. The bases of its wings also have such padding, and a fanned, splayed, seemingly webbed shape with a small "wing-spike" on one edge. The lower length of Zekrom's arms extenuate into splayed, seemingly webbed, somewhat baseball-mitt-like formations, with three-clawed, dark-colored hands on the undersides. The front portion of Zekrom's waist is black-colored, with its belly and thighs having thin striations down their length. Its knees are black, as are the foremost parts of its three-clawed feet and spiked heels.

Zekrom's tail consists of large, round, conical and spiked formation, likened to an electricity generator, with a black inner portion and bands on the tip of the outside portion. This tail produces evergy for its attacks and emits an anti-gravity field, allowing Zekrom to fly through the air with minimal effects from aerodynamic resistance and gravity. It can cause several thunderstorms in one area, and it normally hides in thunderclouds. In a Unova myth about the twin heroes, Zekrom sided with the younger brother who sought for ideals. It is a genderless species. It is the only Pokémon that can learn {{m|Bolt Strike}}, though it is commonly associated with the move {{m|Fusion Bolt}}.

==Trivia==
[[File:Reshiram and Zekrom units 2010.png|thumb|Reshiram and Zekrom at Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in 2010]]
* Zekrom was first revealed simultaneously alongside {{p|Reshiram}} on both the official English and Japanese Pokémon websites on May 28, 2010. This makes them the first two Pokémon simultaneously revealed worldwide.
* On May 31, 2010, two weeks prior to the official revelation of Zekrom's [[type]], [[Shōko Nakagawa]] spoke about her love of {{type|Electric}} Pokémon on her blog and mentioned that because of that, she wanted to get a Zekrom. This statement was then quickly removed.
* Zekrom has the highest {{stat|Attack}} base stat, {{stat|Defense}} base stat, and base stat total of all {{type|Electric}} Pokémon.
* Zekrom is the heaviest Pokémon introduced in Generation V.
* Zekrom, as well as {{p|Reshiram}}, made an appearance alongside {{p|Pikachu}} and a [[Poké Ball]] in 2010's {{wp|Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade}}.
* Although Zekrom has a [[Shiny]] palette, [[Pokémon Black and White]] are programmed so that a Shiny Zekrom cannot be encountered. It shares this trait with {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Victini}}.

===Origin===
Zekrom and its counterpart {{p|Reshiram}} are based on the concept of {{wp|yin and yang}} in {{wp|Taoism}}, directly referenced by Zekrom's Japanese species: the Black Yin Pokémon. According to [[Ken Sugimori]], Zekrom was designed to have a tougher and more masculine design to contrast to Reshiram's light, airy, feminine design. Its tail, the center point of its design, is based on an electric {{wp|turbine}}.<ref>[http://pokemonblackandwhite.net/?p=1641 Interview with Ken Sugimori and development team]</ref> Appearance-wise, it somewhat resembles a midsized to large theropod dinosaur, such as {{wp|Allosaurus}} or {{wp|Tyrannosaurus}}, and a {{wp|European dragon}}. The crest on its head is based on a thundercloud. The mythology about how Zekrom and Reshiram came about, regarding two brothers infighting, also bears some similarities to {{wp|Romulus and Remus}} or {{wp|Cain and Abel}}. There is also some resemblance to the Zoroastrian belief of two equally powerful deities, one representing light and truth, and the other representing lies and darkness. In this case, Zekrom can be taken to resemble {{wp|Angra Mainyu}}, as opposed to Reshiram resembling {{wp|Ahura Mazda}}, although Zekrom is not evil; rather it is an equally powerful opposing legendary Pokémon.

====Name origin====
Zekrom is derived from 黒 ''kuro'' (black). [[Ken Sugimori]] has also stated that ''Ze'' was used because it was a harder, stronger sound than {{p|Reshiram}}'s ''Re'', and Zekrom is a "powerful, strong character."<ref>[[Official Nintendo Magazine]] UK, Issue 65</ref>

'''Zekrom''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ゼクロム''' ''Zekrom'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dragon|Electric}} [[Legendary Pokémon]].

It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.

Zekrom is the version mascot of [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|Pokémon White]], appearing on the boxart.

Along with {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Kyurem}}, it is a member of the [[Tao trio]], which exists in the legends of the [[Unova]] Region.

{{p|Kyurem}} will become [[Form differences#Kyurem|Black Kyurem]] upon using the {{key|V|DNA Splicers}} to fuse with Zekrom.

==Biology==
[[File:644Zekrom-Activated.png|thumb|left|Zekrom's tail turbine activated]]
Zekrom is a black, bipedal Pokémon resembling a dragon or dinosaur, with dark patches on various portions of its body. It has red scleras, white irises, and black pupils, as well as a small horn-like protrusion on the tip of its snout. Its head sports a thundercloud-like crest tipped with light-blue coloration. There are two pairs of pointed teeth visible when its mouth is open, one in the upper jaw and one in the lower. At the base of its neck is a black, stud-like feature, and atop its shoulders are similar, larger features resembling armor padding. The bases of its wings also have such padding, and a fanned, splayed, seemingly webbed shape with a small "wing-spike" on one edge. The lower length of Zekrom's arms extenuate into splayed, seemingly webbed, somewhat baseball-mitt-like formations, with three-clawed, dark-colored hands on the undersides. The front portion of Zekrom's waist is black-colored, with its belly and thighs having thin striations down their length. Its knees are black, as are the foremost parts of its three-clawed feet and spiked heels.

Zekrom's tail consists of large, round, conical and spiked formation, likened to an electricity generator, with a black inner portion and bands on the tip of the outside portion. This tail produces evergy for its attacks and emits an anti-gravity field, allowing Zekrom to fly through the air with minimal effects from aerodynamic resistance and gravity. It can cause several thunderstorms in one area, and it normally hides in thunderclouds. In a Unova myth about the twin heroes, Zekrom sided with the younger brother who sought for ideals. It is a genderless species. It is the only Pokémon that can learn {{m|Bolt Strike}}, though it is commonly associated with the move {{m|Fusion Bolt}}.

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

It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.

Along with {{p|Articuno}} and {{p|Moltres}}, it is one of the three [[Legendary birds]] of [[Kanto]].

==Biology==
Zapdos is an avian Pokémon with predominantly yellow plumage. Black rings encircle its eyes, and it has a long, thin, light orange beak. Its wings and tail are a mass of spiky feathers, with black feathers covering the back of its wings and inner tail feathers. A large crest of spiked feathers surrounds its head. Its thighs are a khaki color, and it has {{wp|Bird anatomy|anisodactyl}} feet ending in talons.

When Zapdos flaps its glittering wings, it releases electricity that can potentially cause thunderstorms. It produces massive crackling and snapping sounds when it flies; these are attributed to the lightning bolts sheds when airborne. When stricken by lightning, it gains power. Zapdos reportedly appears only during thunderstorms, and is said to live among thunderclouds. However, it is {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rare Pokémon|rarely seen.}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Zapdos M02.png|thumb|251px|Zapdos in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Legendary birds (M02)#Zapdos|Zapdos (M02)]]====
Zapdos made its first true appearance in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]''. [[Lawrence III]] wanted to capture the three [[Legendary birds]] as well as their master {{mov|Lugia|Lugia|02}}.

====Other====
A rough image of Zapdos was first seen etched in a stone hanging in the {{ci|Viridian}} [[Pokémon Center]] in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency]]''.

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

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

A Zapdos appeared in ''[[EP229|An EGG-sighting Adventure!]]'' as part of {{TRT}}'s fantasy.

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

A Zapdos made a cameo appearance in ''[[DP094|Doc Brock!]]''. This may have been taken from {{game|Platinum}}, where in this version, there is a Zapdos {{pkmn2|roaming}} Sinnoh. Presumably the same Zapdos made a cameo in a flashback in ''[[DP173|Dealing With a Fierce Double Ditto Drama!]]'', and both of [[Narissa]]'s {{p|Ditto}} {{m|transform}}ed into it.

A Zapdos made a cameo in the intro of ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'' and ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.

==In the manga==
[[File:Lt Surge Zapdos Adventures.png|thumb|Zapdos in Pokémon Adventures]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Having captured this Legendary bird in [[Kanto Power Plant|the abandoned Power Plant]] as in the games, [[Lt. Surge]] appears with Zapdos in his team during the events of {{PAV|3}}, using it as a never-ending power source for his Electric types, allowing them to continually shock {{adv|Red}} at full force, a strategy that turns against him when Red uses [[Saur]]'s {{m|Razor Leaf}} to cut the supply cords and his insulating underwear with them. After having been merged with {{p|Articuno}} and {{p|Moltres}} into [[Thu-Fi-Zer|an undiscovered Pokémon]], the three Pallet Town Trainers are able to defeat the combined monster, so it leaves his team, and [[Team Rocket]] afterwards to go back to the wild.

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

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
A Zapdos debuted in ''[[PM017|Regain the Deserted Power Plant!]]''.

Two other Zapdos appeared in ''[[PM058|Get Lugia!]]'' and [[PMDP11]], respectively.

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

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

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

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

==Trivia==
* Of all Legendary Pokémon with fixed in-game locations, Zapdos can be obtained with the fewest number of Badges: 3. In the [[Generation I]] games and [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|their remakes]], the player can catch Zapdos with only the {{Badge|Boulder}}, {{Badge|Cascade}}, and {{Badge|Soul}}.
* Zapdos shares its [[species]] name with {{p|Elekid}} and {{p|Electabuzz}}. They are all known as the Electric Pokémon.
* Zapdos and {{p|Jolteon}}'s Japanese names are almost exactly the same as each other's, with a final ''s'' being the only difference.
* Zapdos possesses a type advantage over all other members of its trio, as well as its trio master, {{p|Lugia}}.
* In the {{pkmn|anime}} episode ''[[EP036|The Bridge Bike Gang]]'', [[Chopper]]'s bike was decorated to look like a Zapdos.
* Zapdos is the only member of the Legendary bird trio to not be 4x super effected by Rock-type moves.
* In [[Generation V]], Zapdos has {{a|Lightningrod}} instead of {{a|Static}} as its Hidden Ability. However, it cannot be obtained with its Hidden Ability in these games.

===Origin===
Zapdos is based on the {{wp|Native American}} legend of the {{wp|thunderbird (mythology)|thunderbird}}. The thunderbird was known for being the spirit of thunder, lightning, and rain in the form of a giant bird. The beating of the wings was said to create thunder. It may also have been based on the {{wp|Lightning Bird}}, a bird created from wherever lightning hits the earth. It may also have been based on the {{wp|Impundulu}}, a bird of witchcraft said to summon thunder and lightning with its wings and talons.

===Name origin===
Zapdos is a combination of ''zap'' and ''dos'' ({{wp|Spanish language|Spanish}} for ''two'', indicating that it is the second in the series of [[Kanto]] [[Legendary birds]]).

The Japanese name, 'Thunder,' is literally ''thunder''.

MythKirby: /* Volcanion and Hoopa */

No, no, no. The legendaries are not categorised by their interrelationships but by the stage they can be obtained in game, and their characteristics. (Also, I don't support the Dialga/Palkia/Giratina triad theory.) - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 09:48, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
:I've added that categorization (or at least what I believe to be true... far as D/P goes, I just followed what I knew from the guys above in RBYGSCRSE) to the top of the columns, and colorized the boxes that the Pokémon's names are in to basically represent their or their type's color. What do you think of it? [[User:TTEchidna|Tom Temprotran]] 08:51, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
::The colours clash too much. Less intense colouration would be good, but ultimately the colours simply don't match. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 12:24, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
Umm, Darkrai is an event Pokemon, not avaliable after the fall of the E4, unless you count that glitch.--[[User:PikamasterADV|PikamasterADV]] 12:34, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

== Lugia and Ho-Oh: Mascots only? ==

Since both of them are in the same boat as Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza, being before the Elite Four in one version and after it in another, I figure they should just be in the mascot column. [[User:TTEchidna|Tom Temprotran]] 02:09, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

== WHY is Phione in this thing??? ==

It's misleading-people will think Phione is a legendary! And NO, there is NOT any proof of it yet, so I suggest we leave Phione out of this template until it can be proven conclusively that it is or isn't a legendary. --

It is considerd by what? 75...80% of people that it is a legendary because it is you know
BRED FROM ONE!

Be that as it may, that doesn't PROVE anything. Legendary Pokémon are only supposed to be one per cartridge w/o trading (you can breed more Phione from Phione or Manaphy), and have good stats (Phione's base stats are the same as Glalie's). I'm looking for irrefutable, undeniable, and concrete proof of whether or not Phione is legendary. Confirmation from Nintendo, ability to be used during the PBR legendary ban, ect., ect., ect.! People all thought Rotom was legendary, because it had good stats and legendary battle music, but as Pokémon.com confirmed, Rotom is NOT a legendary. Now, I'm not saying outright that Phione is not a legendary, I'm only saying that if it is, something screwy is going on here. --

== Phione ==

Phione is still not confirmed legendary or non-legendary. It should at least be put in a new section, something like "debatable". - ''unsigned comment from [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] ([[User talk:Missingno. Master|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Missingno._Master|contribs]])''

==Should this by organised by generation instead of region?==
I say this because some of the pokemon listed, mainly the trios, are found in multiple regions. Also some of the Pokémon don't even come from the region they are listed in, for example Manaphy comes from Almia/Fiore not Sinnoh, Jirachi and Deoxys aren't found in Hoenn, and Mew isn't in Kanto.

::They would not have put it into print, let alone in a guidebook that probably millions of people own by now, if they weren't certain of it. On a website, sure, as they can easily change their minds (as we've seen for ourselves!), but in print, that's a different story. Besides, their previous contradictory answers don't even exist anymore, as Pokemon.com no longer has a mailbag. Why, it's almost as if they're now sure that Phione is not a legendary to the extent that they didn't want people to realize that they once beleived the contrary to be true!

:::Uh, by that token, we'd have to move [[Allegra]] back to "Maki", [[Maury]] back to "Katsumi", and [[Kai (movie)]] to "Dai (movie)" (just plain "[[Dai]]" is now a disambig) on the sole basis that the charac::ters in question no longer have English names because the source that revealed them is no longer around. If that were to happen, we'd also have to put down that the dub did not give [[Moose]] a dub name because the source that distinctly said he kept his Japanese name is no longer around. Just because the Mailbag is no longer around doesn't mean whatever stuff it revealed is no longer relevant.

== New outline - Discussions ==

We need to reach a consensus over what we will use to update the template, it's been '''months''' without a decision being made in this matter. Opinions go in their respective sub headers.

===Vertical===
*I support this one, because it's the outline that the new templates are following, and we should focus on steadiness, not to mention it's the best looking one. [[User:Masatoshi|Masatoshi]][[User_talk:Masatoshi|''talk'']] 15:32, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
* I prefer this one too. The alternate vertical is stretching horizontally too much. —♥ [[User:Jello|Jello]][[User Talk:Jello|talk]] 21:00, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
* I prefer this one. It also follows the same style as {{template|NPC}}. The horizonal is just plain ugly, and the alternate vertical is too wide and looks really disbalanced when you compare Kanto to Unova. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 04:47, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
* Oh there ain't no other way, vertical all the way, it's on the center track baby, it was born this way yeah. --[[User:PsychicRider|'''P S Y''']][[User talk:PsychicRider|'''ライダー''']]''[[Special:Contributions/PsychicRider|'''☮''']]'' 06:43, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
* My vote goes to the vertical one. The others stretch out too much. --[[User:Carmenstar97|Carmen]] ''[[User talk:Carmenstar97|(Talk |]] [[Special:Contributions/Carmenstar97|contribs)]]'' 19:31, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

===Alternate vertical===
* I personally think this one looks the best. I'm not too bothered, just as long as it's not that ugly horizontal one... '''X'''[[User:Vuvuzela2010|'''Vuvuzela2010''']]'''X''' 15:44, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
*I prefer this style, only because I think long templates look better than tall ones (long templates clutter the bottom of pages less compared to tall ones), and the horizontal is, as stated, kinda ugly. [[User:ArcToraphim|Luna Tiger]] * [[User talk:ArcToraphim|the Arc Toraph]] 15:49, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
* This one uses less pagespace and seems to have less whitespace than the above. The vertical template is terrible. Who the heck designed it? —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 07:08, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
* I like this one the best, but I think that it could use the menu sprites next to the name of the Pokemon, just to make it look a little better? [[User:Jakeul200493|Jakeul200493]] 13:47, 30 April 2011 (UTC)

===Other comments===
What I don't like is that they all are sorted by region, which is not really accurate. [[Legendary Pokémon]] appear in multiple regions, and should really be sorted by generation. This wouldn't change where the Pokémon are on the list, just the names of the groups. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 07:04, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
:Alternatively, we could list every legendary Pokémon in every region they could be obtained. It would be helpful, but potentially messy. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 07:17, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
::That is more like how {{template|legendarylocations}} used to be. If we were to do it that way, we would need "other" for Giratina in the [[Distortion World]], the [[creation trio]] at [[Sinjoh Ruins]], and Mew on [[Faraway Island]]; as well as "none" for Jirachi, Deoxys, Keldeo, Melloetta and Genesect. I think by generation is the cleanest and easiest option. If we were to list them by location, I would suggest either Template:Legendarylocations or on the page [[legendary Pokémon]]. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 07:24, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
:There's changing region names to generations, referring to when they first appeared. [[User:Tc26/Anime Predictions|tc]][[User:Tc26|²₆]][[User talk:Tc26|tc]][[User:Tc26/Sandbox|26]] 07:26, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
::That's what I was suggesting. I think this is the most logical solution, and easiest to navigate. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 07:32, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

== New Template, 2 Edit Requests, and Phione ==

Can we decide on a template? There's been no discussion since May. Also, the current template should ''not'' be hidden, seeing as how its still in use. And can someone remove the ''br clear="all"'' that appears at the end of the current template, I think that's what's making a space appear between this template and the Super Smash Bros template in the navigation template at the end of {{p|Deoxys}}'s page.

And what's Phione's current status{{tt|*|if (more likely when) it changes again during this convo, please let us know!}}? I think it should be added, but with a note like this: {{p|Phione}}{{tt|*|Disputed status}} {{unsigned|Vuvuzela2010}}

:Phione HAS to be in the template. The fact that it isn't normally obtainable in the games (you need a event Pokémon first) and many official sources consider a legendary is enough to warrant its placement in it. - [[User:Ericss|Ericss]] 17:25, 2 January 2012 (UTC)
::The issue is that there are just as many official sources saying that it isn't. However, I think what Vuvu suggested is best. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 17:35, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

== Rotom ==
Okay, if Phione is here, then I think Rotom should be too, under the same disputed category. This is because it pretty much fits the bill for a legendary, only one in the game, can not breed. It also commonly gets mistaken for a legendary. ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]]☆ 22:00, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
:First, {{p|Rotom}} [[Amorphous (egg group)|can breed]]. Second, commonly mistaken for a legendary is not the same as legendary, and Rotom is not legendary. Its base stats are far lower than those of any other {{tt|legendary|Phione excepted}} in all of its forms, and there aren't legends about it either. It's an [[List of in-game event Pokémon in Generation IV|in-game event]] Pokémon, like {{p|Snorlax}}. --[[User:Darth Zekrom|'''Darth''']] [[User talk:Darth Zekrom|'''Zekrom''']] 01:07, 26 March 2012 (UTC)
::There has never been any evidence that indicates that Rotom is legendary. Phione is referred to as both legendary and non-legendary by official sources, whereas the closest thing Rotom has is an error in the [[Pokémon Ultimate Handbook]] (which was corrected in the updated version). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 07:43, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

== Order ==

Why are all of the Pokemon in National Pokedex order except for the Sinnoh Legendaries? Shouldn't they be in order too? [[User:Pokemega32|Pokemega32]] 19:35, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
:Fixed. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 14:25, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

== Xerneas and Yveltal ==

Do we wait until a region name is revealed, or just list them as 'Generation VI' like the starter template? - ''signed comment from [[User:GoldenCelebi|GoldenCelebi]] ([[User talk:GoldenCelebi|pedia talk]] • [[Bulbanews:User talk:GoldenCelebi|news talk]] • [[a:User talk:GoldenCelebi|archives talk]])'' ''22:40, 9 January 2013 (UTC)''

== Should be categorized by generation, not region ==

Sorting them by region doesn't make as much sense, as certain Pokemon aren't actually caught in those regions. Deoxys is native to the Sevii Islands and Manaphy has never been obtainable outside of the Ranger regions. These should be sorted by generation instead. [[User:Pokemega32|Pokemega32]] ([[User talk:Pokemega32|talk]]) 20:02, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
:I agree with that. Many Pokémon can be caught in multiple regions: Birds, Beasts, Regis, Weather trio, creation trio, lake trio etc. so it makes more sense to have them by generation. ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]]☆ 20:05, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
:*Considering that the [[Generation VI]] legendaries are already added and we still don't know the region's name yet, it would at least make sense for now, I suppose. Though I'm assuming you mean generation introduced, seeing that some are available in multiple games as well as regions.''{{tt|(Caption Obvious, to the rescue!)|I herpderped, didn't I?}}'' ----[[User:NateVirus|NateVirus]]''([[User talk:NateVirus|Talk]]''|''[[Special:Contributions/NateVirus|Contributions]]'') 20:56, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
:::I think sorting them by generation makes more sense. If it does happen, it would also need to be changed on the Starter Pokémon template. [[User:Torpoleon|Torpoleon]] ([[User talk:Torpoleon|talk]]) 21:23, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

== "Generation VI" should be changed to "Kalos" ==

As stated [[Kalos|here]], Kalos has been confirmed as the name of the region for X/Y. To keep it consistent, shouldn't the "Generation VI" at the bottom of this template be changed to "Kalos"? [[User:SirUmbreon|~SirUmbreon]] ([[User talk:SirUmbreon|talk]]) 00:20, 15 May 2013 (UTC)

== Mythical? ==
The event-exclusive Pokémon are now officially considered "Mythical" rather than legendary, maybe it could be subcategorized by that? We could also put "disputed" for Phione. However, that might be covered by [[Template:EventExclusive]]. Which would be better, to label "Pokémon" as Mythical in that template or subcategorize this one? We should also consider that the "event" model could potentially be discontinued in Generation VI in favor of DLC, as Spike Chunsoft has already done with the new Pokémon Mystery Dungeon. But if we change this one, we would need a way to do it without making it messy again. [[User:TorchicBlaziken|TorchicBlaziken]] ([[User_talk:TorchicBlaziken|talk]]•[[Special:Contributions/TorchicBlaziken|edits]]) 20:51, 27 May 2013 (UTC)

== Includeonly ==

Can I ask if <nowiki><includeonly>[[Category:Legendary Pokémon]]</includeonly></nowiki> could be put in the template? Thanks. — [[User:Reshi643|Reshi]][[User talk:Reshi643|643]] 20:26, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

'''Jigglypuff''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''プリン''' ''Purin'') is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Fairy}} Pokémon, and prior to [[Generation VI]], a pure {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Igglybuff}} when [[level]]ed up with high [[friendship]] and evolves into {{p|Wigglytuff}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Moon Stone}}.

==Biology==
Jigglypuff is a round, pink ball with pointed ears and large, blue eyes. It has rubbery, balloon-like skin and small, stubby arms and somewhat long feet. On top of its head is a curled tuft of fur. As seen in [[Pokémon Stadium]], it is filled with air, as a defeated Jigglypuff, deflates until it is flat. By drawing extra air into its body, it is able to float as demonstrated in [[Super Smash Bros.]]

Jigglypuff uses its eyes to mesmerize opponents. Once it achieves this, it will inflate its lungs and begin to sing a soothing lullaby. If the opponent resists falling asleep, Jigglypuff will endanger its own life by continuing to sing until its lungs run out of air. It is able to adjust the wavelength of its voice to match the brain waves of someone in a deep sleep. This helps ensure drowsiness in its opponents. Jigglypuff can mostly be found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|lush green plains and grassy meadows}}.

==Trivia==
* Jigglypuff is typically depicted in the Smash Bros. series and other 3D games, ''[[AG138|Rough, Tough Jigglypuff]]'' and other anime episodes, and [[Ken Sugimori]]'s art with green eyes and tea rose pink fur, more closely resembling its {{pkmn2|Shiny}} form.
* Jigglypuff and its {{p|Igglybuff|evolutionary}} {{p|Wigglytuff|relatives}} share their [[species]] name with {{p|Qwilfish}} and {{p|Drifloon}}. They are all known as the Balloon Pokémon.

===Origin===
It appears to be based on a balloon and a pink puff. Another possible origin for Jigglypuff is another Nintendo character being Kirby.

====Name origin====
Jigglypuff is a combination of ''jiggly'' and ''puff'', referring to its wobbly shape and ability to inflate itself.

Purin may be a combination of 風船 ''fūsen'' (balloon) and 膨れる ''fukureru'' (to expand or inflate), as well as a pun on プリン ''purin'' (pudding).

Paul's Drapion

MythKirby: Paul's Drapion is pretty notable having beaten Ash's Torterra, Buizel and Staraptor. It even almost beat his Gligar.

'''Paul's Drapion''' (Japanese: '''シンジのドラピオン''' ''Shinji's Dorapion'') is a Pokémon owned by [[Paul]].

==History==
Paul's Drapion's first appearance was during the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]]. It was Paul's third Pokémon during his battle with {{Ash}} where it managed to defeat three of Ash's Pokémon. It first battled [[Ash's Buizel]]. Drapion first launched a {{m|Pin Missile}} which Buizel countered with his [[Counter Shield]]. Buizel used {{m|SonicBoom}}, which Drapion blocked and grabbed Buizel with its tail. Then, the episode ends with a conclusion.

In ''[[DP187|A Real Rival Rouser!]]'', the battle between Drapion and Buizel continued. After a while, Buizel managed to escape by inflating his floation sac. Drapion used {{m|Toxic Spikes}} on the field which {{status|poisoned}} Buizel. Drapion finished him off with Pin Missile.

Drapion next battled [[Ash's Staraptor]]. Drapion started it again with a Pin Missile but it was dodged by Staraptor. Staraptor used {{m|Aerial Ace}} which Drapion dodged and caught Staraptor like what it did with Buizel. Drapion then used {{m|Cross Poison}}, throwing Staraptor to the ground poisoning it with {{m|Toxic Spikes}} and eventually knocking it out.

Ash then sent out {{AP|Torterra}}, who feels the effect of Toxic Spikes. Drapion used Cross Poison which Torterra countered with {{m|Energy Ball}}, which hit Drapion. Torterra used then {{m|Leaf Storm}} which hits Drapion again. Drapion grabbed Torterra as it was about to use {{m|Rock Climb}} and uses Poison Fang on it. Torterra tried to recover with its {{m|Synthesis}} but was knocked out after being hit by Pin Missile. Drapion was then recalled after Ash confirmed his last Pokémon.

Later, Drapion was used to battle [[Ash's Gliscor]]. Drapion started things off with a Pin Missile which is dodged by Gliscor. As Drapion was about to use {{m|Poison Fang}}, Gliscor managed to hit it with a {{m|Giga Impact}} and making distance by using its spinning technique. Drapion then used Pin Missile, but {{p|Gliscor}} dodges it. Gliscor then used {{m|X-Scissor}} with the battle ending its second segment.

In ''[[DP188|Battling a Thaw in Relations!]]'', the battles continues with Drapion hitting Gliscor with Pin Missile which sends it flying back. In the end, it was knocked out after being {{status|burned}} from Gliscor's {{m|Fire Fang}}.

==Trivia==
* In ''[[DP081|Chim - Charred!]]'', Paul had tried to capture a Drapion, but it fled after being interrupted by [[Ash's Gliscor|Ash's Gligar]].
* Paul's brother, [[Reggie]], also owns a Drapion.
* Besides {{p|Gastrodon}}, Drapion is the only Pokémon used by Paul during his [[Lily of the Valley Conference]] battle with Ash which hasn't got its [[ability]] revealed.
