{{samename|mechanic in [[Pokémon GO]] and [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]]|Released Pokémon}}
'''Transferring''' is a process in which Pokémon are sent from one game to another without [[trade|trading]]. The recipient game does not send a Pokémon back. Most commonly, transfers are one-way from a game in one [[generation]] to a game in a later generation. The exact process usually differs for different generations.

==Precursors==
Transfers did not yet exist in [[Generation I]] or [[Generation II]]. Instead, these are the only generations to support [[trade|trading]] between them.

The [[Time Capsule]] allows Pokémon to be traded between Generation I and Generation II, conceptually acting as a [[Time travel|time machine]] bridging the [[History of the Pokémon world|three years]] between events in each generation. As with all Generation I/II trades, it requires two systems connected by a [[Game Link Cable]], or via local wireless in the Virtual Console releases. It does not allow trading of any {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} or any Pokémon that know [[move]]s introduced in Generation II.

[[Generation III]] is the only generation where there is no method to receive Pokémon from past generation games.

==Transfer methods==
Transferring was introduced in [[Generation IV]] and has remained in all generations afterward. Therefore, it is possible to transfer a Pokémon from Generation III to any future generation through a chain of transfers. With the [[Virtual Console]] releases of [[Generation I]] and {{gen|II}} games and an update to [[Poké Transporter]] in [[Generation VII]], it became possible for the first time since Generation II to have Pokémon from all generations in a single game (though Generation I and II Pokémon still cannot be transferred to a generation between III and VI).

Pokémon that cannot be [[trade]]d for technical or plot reasons also cannot be transferred, including [[Spiky-eared Pichu]]; the fused versions of {{p|Kyurem}}, {{p|Necrozma}}, and {{p|Calyrex}}; and the {{ga|partner Pokémon|partner}} {{p|Pikachu}} and partner {{p|Eevee}}.

===To Generation IV===
The [[Nintendo DS]]'s [[dual-slot mode]] allows Pokémon to be transferred from [[Generation III]] games to [[Generation IV]] games. When a Generation IV game is started with a Generation III game in the console's Game Pak Slot, if [[Pal Park]] has been visited in the game, the option to "Migrate from [game]" will be available on the [[main menu]]. (Due to the removal of the Game Pak Slot for the [[Nintendo DSi]] and [[Nintendo 3DS]], Pokémon cannot be transferred to Generation IV on DSi or 3DS consoles.)

Six Pokémon can be migrated at a time and, in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, Pokémon can only be migrated once every 24 hours. In the destination game, the migrated Pokémon will be available at [[Pal Park]] for the player to catch in a Catching Show. The [[Park Ball]]s used in Catching Shows always capture a Pokémon when thrown; however, Pokémon captured during the Catching Show retain the kind of Poké Ball they were caught in in a Generation III game.

This is the only generation where transferred Pokémon retain their [[held item]]s.

===To Generation V===
In [[Generation V]], there are two methods of transferring Pokémon from Generation IV: [[Poké Transfer]] and the [[Relocator]]. Poké Transfer is the general transfer method, while the Relocator is a special method of transferring a few specific [[event Pokémon]]. Either method requires two systems and uses the system's built-in wireless communication.

Poké Transfer is used by visiting the [[Poké Transfer Lab]] on {{rt|15|Unova}} in a Generation V game. A {{tc|Scientist}} at the back of the lab will allow the player to start Poké Transfer on their game, at which point a system with a [[Generation IV]] game must be started and the Poké Transfer application must be selected from the system's DS Download Play option. Six Pokémon can be sent to the Generation V game from the Generation IV game via the downloaded application. These Pokémon must then be captured in a time-limited slingshot minigame; any Pokémon that are not caught will remain in the Generation IV game.

The Relocator is only available in {{game|Black and White|s}}. Only the {{DL|List of event Pokémon with in-game effects|Celebi}}, {{DL|List of event Pokémon with in-game effects|Raikou, Entei, and Suicune}} distributed to commemorate the [[M13|thirteenth movie]] can be transferred with the Relocator. The Relocator can be found in [[Castelia City]] and must be unlocked with the correct keywords.

===To Generations VI and VII (excluding Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!)===
[[Pokémon Bank]] and its companion application [[Poké Transporter]] are used for transfer to the [[Generation VI]] games and the [[Generation VII]] games excluding [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]]. Transfer from multiple generations is possible:
* Pokémon from the [[Virtual Console]] releases of Generations I and II can be sent to Pokémon Bank through Poké Transporter, and may be withdrawn in Generation VII games.
* Pokémon from [[Generation V]] can be sent to Pokémon Bank through Poké Transporter, and may be withdrawn in Generation VI or VII games.
* Pokémon from Generation VI can use two-way transfer with Pokémon Bank. This also applies to Pokémon that originated from [[Pokémon Bank#Event distributions|Pokémon Bank distribution events]] during Generation VI. However, once a Pokémon has been withdrawn once in a Generation VII game, it cannot be transferred back into Generation VI.
* Pokémon from Generation VII can use two-way transfer with Pokémon Bank.

Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee! are incompatible with Bank and other Generation VII games under all circumstances.

===To Generation VIII and IX (as well as Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!)===
The following transfers are possible:
* Pokémon from Pokémon Bank can be sent to [[Pokémon HOME]], and may be withdrawn in [[Generation VIII]].
* Pokémon from Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee! can use two-way transfer with Pokémon HOME. However, once a Pokémon has been in a Generation VIII or IX game, it cannot be transferred back into Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!.
* Pokémon from [[Pokémon GO]] can be transferred to Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee! through the [[GO Park]], and to Pokémon HOME through the [[GO Transporter]]. Pokémon from the GO Transporter can be withdrawn in Generation VIII or IX, assuming it exists in the game data.
* Pokémon from Generation VIII and IX can use two-way transfer with Pokémon HOME. This also applies to Pokémon that originated from [[List of game-based Pokémon distributions (Generation VIII)|Pokémon HOME]] [[List of game-based Pokémon distributions (Generation IX)|distribution events]] during Generation VIII or IX.
* Pokémon from [[Generation IX]] can be transferred backwards to any Generation VIII game and vice versa, assuming they exist in the receiving game’s data.

In Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee! and Generations VIII and IX, not all Pokémon and forms exist in the coding of each game, and HOME will only permit a Pokémon to be withdrawn if both the Pokémon and the specific form exists in the coding of the destination game. Compatible Pokémon for a particular game may be expanded with updates over time.

The following 12 Pokémon lack a compatible game in Generations VIII and IX, and cannot be withdrawn into any of those games at all:

Additional transfer restrictions:
* [[Gigantamax]] Factor {{p|Meowth}}, {{p|Pikachu}}, {{p|Eevee}} and {{p|Duraludon}}{{tt|*|v.3.2.1 onward}} cannot be transferred to [[Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl]], {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, or {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}.
* {{p|Spinda}} cannot be transferred in either direction between HOME and Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl.
* {{p|Nincada}} originally from Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl cannot be withdrawn in any game other than (another copy of) Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl, and Nincada originally from outside of Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl cannot be withdrawn in Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl.
* If one Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl save file has two of a Pokémon species that is normally only [[caught|catchable]] once per save file (such as {{p|Dialga}} or {{p|Palkia}}), and neither has been deposited into HOME before, only one may be deposited, even if the two have different [[OT]]s.

These restrictions occur for a variety of technical and [[glitch]]-prevention reasons (see the [[Pokémon HOME#Limitations|Limitations]] section of the [[Pokémon HOME]] article for details).

====Moveset alteration====
Similar to the situation between Sun/Moon/Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon and Let's Go, Pikachu!/Let's Go, Eevee!, the three paired releases of Generation VIII have significant coding differences, and thus cannot [[trade]] with each other (direct trade is only possible with another copy of the same game or its paired counterpart). In this sense, the generation is split into three "game environments": Sword/Shield, Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl, and Legends: Arceus.

Different game environments also have different [[move]] lists. To allow Pokémon to be transferred between them despite these differences, [[Pokémon HOME]] tracks the game-specific data of each Pokémon, and assigns appropriate movesets whenever the Pokémon's game environment changes.
* If a Pokémon enters a game environment that it has never been in before, it will be assigned a moveset of its 4 most recent level-up moves in the destination game.
** Example: a [[level]] 20 {{p|Pikachu}} caught in Sword is transferred to Brilliant Diamond. Upon arrival in Brilliant Diamond, the Pikachu will have a moveset of {{m|Spark}}, {{m|Feint}}, {{m|Electro Ball}}, and {{m|Double Team}}.
* If the Pokémon returns to a game environment that it has previously been in before, it will regain its previous moveset data for that environment.
** Example: if the Pikachu from the previous example is transferred back into Sword or Shield, its moveset from the last time it was in Sword or Shield will be restored. If it is transferred into Brilliant Diamond again, its moveset from the last time it was in Brilliant Diamond or Shining Pearl will be restored.

'''Shielbert''' (Japanese: '''シルディ''' ''Shildy'') is a character introduced in {{g|Sword and Shield}}. Together with his brother, [[Sordward]], the duo act as antagonists in the game's post-game story.

==In the games==
After the {{player}} becomes Champion, they and [[Hop]] return to the [[Slumbering Weald]], believing to have been called there by something. After a battle, the two, prompted by [[Sonia]], attempt to return the [[Rusted Sword]] and [[Rusted Shield]] they borrowed to fight {{p|Eternatus}} to the grave site, but they are stopped by Shielbert and his brother, [[Sordward]], who steal the weapons. The brothers declare the items to belong to them, claiming to be descendants of the first kings of [[Galar]], and denounce [[Sonia's Book]], which unveils the kings of legend as the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}}, as a lie. The player battles and defeats Sordward{{sup/8|Sw}}/Shielbert{{sup/8|Sh}} in battle and reclaims their Sword{{sup/8|Sw}}/Shield{{sup/8|Sh}}, but Hop is defeated by the other brother. The duo make their escape, causing a frustrated Hop to pursue them.

The player later finds Sordward and Shielbert in [[Turffield Stadium]], where they reveal they were the people behind the [[Gym]]'s incident with the rampaging [[Dynamax]] {{p|Tsareena}} that the player, Hop, [[Milo]], and [[Piers]] battled. They announce their intent to do the same thing at other Stadiums, and that they will reveal the "true nature" of Zacian and Zamazenta. The player, Hop, and Piers work together with [[Nessa]] and [[Kabu]] to defend their respective stadiums, after which the player is called by Sonia, who says that the brothers have arrived at her laboratory in [[Wedgehurst]], demanding more [[Wishing Star]]s to force Pokémon to Dynamax with. This time, the player and Hop team up and face the duo in a [[Multi Battle]], emerging victorious. After the battle, Sonia's new assistant is revealed to have been a supporter of the royal brothers, who was planted there to spy on Sonia and secure the Wishing Stars the lab had in storage. Sordward, Shielbert, and Sonia's assistant make their escape while Sonia is stunned by the sudden betrayal.

After helping the other Stadiums, Sonia is able to break into the [[Energy Plant]] where Sordward, Shielbert, and their allies are waiting to lure the [[Legendary Pokémon]]. The player and their friends are stopped by Sordward{{sup/8|Sw}}/Shielbert{{sup/8|Sh}} while their brother is dealing with Zamazenta{{sup/8|Sw}}/Zacian{{sup/8|Sh}}. Claiming that their status as royalty and celebrities has been called into question by Sonia's findings, Sordward{{sup/8|Sw}}/Shielbert{{sup/8|Sh}} reveal they plan to tarnish the names of Legendary Pokémon by overloading them with the same Galar particles they used to force the Stadium Pokémon to Dynamax, causing them to go berserk. The player battles Sordward{{sup/8|Sw}}/Shielbert{{sup/8|Sh}} again while Hop and Piers deal with his entourage, but after being defeated, they hear a roar, and the brother declares they have already won.

At the Tower Summit, the player finds Shielbert{{sup/8|Sw}}/Sordward{{sup/8|Sh}} with Sonia's former assistant, who were able to successfully summon Zamazenta{{sup/8|Sw}}/Zacian{{sup/8|Sh}} using the Rusted Shield{{sup/8|Sw}}/Sword{{sup/8|Sh}}. Shielbert{{sup/8|Sw}}/Sordward{{sup/8|Sh}} tells Zamazenta{{sup/8|Sw}}/Zacian{{sup/8|Sh}} to begin their rampage, but when the Legendary Pokémon tries to attack the brother instead, he panics. After the player, Hop, and Zacian{{sup/8|Sw}}/Zamazenta{{sup/8|Sh}} calm the other Legendary Pokémon down, Hop takes back the Shield{{sup/8|Sw}}/Sword{{sup/8|Sh}} and chases after the fleeing Legendary, while Zacian{{sup/8|Sw}}/Zamazenta{{sup/8|Sh}} turns its attention to the brothers. Sordward{{sup/8|Sw}}/Shielbert{{sup/8|Sh}} steps in to defend his brother, begging it to spare them, and, after looking to the player, they relent. After the player captures Zacian{{sup/8|Sw}}/Zamazenta{{sup/8|Sh}} in a formal battle, Shielbert{{sup/8|Sw}}/Sordward{{sup/8|Sh}} compliments the player, and the brothers swear to atone, turning themselves in to the custody of Piers.

The player last sees Sordward and Shielbert accompanied by Piers and [[Leon]], who compliment the player and Hop on their last battle. The brothers formally apologize for their conduct and declare that they have abandoned their claim to the throne, saying that the only person truly noble enough for it would be the player themselves.

===Pokémon===
Single Battles against Shielbert occur exclusively in {{g|Shield}}. In {{g|Sword}}, [[Sordward]] takes his place in these battles.

{{search|anniversary of {{game|Red and Green|s}}|individual events named Pokémon Day|Pokémon Day (disambiguation)}}
[[File:Pokémon Day.png|150px|thumb|Logo used for Pokémon Day since 2018]]
'''Pokémon Day''' is an annual celebration of the original Japanese release of {{game|Red and Green|s}}, held on February 27. Various events are held around the world to mark this occasion.

==2016==
[[File:Pokemon Day Korea.png|150px|thumb|Logo used for Pokémon Day in South Korea in 2016]]
===Releases===
As part of the year-long {{pkmn|20th Anniversary}} of the Pokémon franchise, the Pokémon Day in 2016 saw the [[Virtual Console]] releases of the [[Generation I]] games Pokémon {{4v2|Red|Green|Blue|Yellow}}. In Europe, {{pmin|Australia}}, and Japan, special edition [[Nintendo 2DS]] bundles were released, pre-installed with one of the Virtual Console titles; the systems are transparent, matching the color of the installed version. The Japanese bundles included a map of the [[Kanto]] region, a set of stickers based on the VC game's mascot, and a [[List of Japanese region serial code event Pokémon distributions in Generation VI#Game Freak Mew 2|serial code for a Mew]] for the [[Generation VI]] games. The European and Australian bundles included a download code for a HOME Menu theme and a different sticker set. In North America, [[New Nintendo 3DS]] bundles were released, with pre-installed copies of both Red and Blue, two cover plates themed on Red and Blue, and a HOME Menu download code.

A New Nintendo 3DS cover plate was also released in Europe, Australia, and Japan, featuring in-battle sprites from Red and Blue.

'''Rood''' (Japanese: '''ロット''' ''Rood'') is one of the [[Seven Sages]] of [[Team Plasma]].

==In the games==
In {{game|Black and White|s}}, Rood is encountered along with [[Ghetsis]], [[Bronius]] and several {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s at Team Plasma's hideout in [[Castelia City]]. He leaves the building shortly after the arrival of the {{player}}. He later appears with all the other sages at [[N's Castle]], blocking the player's way to [[N]]. However, the [[Unova]] [[Gym Leader]]s appear and clear the way to N. After Ghetsis has been defeated, Rood can be found on {{rt|18|Unova}}, where he gives the player {{TM|32|Double Team}} and is arrested by [[Looker]].

In {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, Rood is encountered living with [[Anthea and Concordia|Anthea, Concordia]] and several Grunts in the original Team Plasma's safehouse in [[Driftveil City]]. After losing in a battle with the player, he gives the player [[N's Zorua]]. Shortly afterwards, he appears on {{rt|6|Unova}} after the player has encountered {{p|Cobalion}}. Later, he appears leading the members of the original Team Plasma against Ghetsis's new Team Plasma at the [[Giant Chasm]], occupying their forces to allow the player to reach Ghetsis himself.

;[[N's Castle]]
: ''"Superior men understand what is right. Inferior men understand what will sell."''
: ''"Constant dripping wears away the stone. I've been waiting in the abyss for this day. No one shall interfere!"''

;{{rt|18|Unova}}
: ''"It smells of the sea here. This place has the same ocean smell as where I was born…"''
: ''"Ghetsis wandered the lands of this world all over, collecting knowledge of all kinds while searching for like-minded people. From the moment we met, he understood what I desired."''
: ''"The ability to understand the minds and the needs of others… This is an ability that everyone needs to survive. My lord N is a kind and excellent person who understands the hearts of Pokémon. But, conversely, perhaps his ability to understand the hearts and feelings of people is not developed enough."''
: ''"But… Even that was part of the perfection of Ghetsis's plan. When it comes to Ghetsis, I cannot separate the truths from the lies. See [[TM32|this]]? I received it from Ghetsis, but I no longer need it. I hope you can put it to good use."''
: ''"Someday, if my lord N develops the ability to understand the feelings of people as well as Pokémon, I would like us to gather again. More than anything, I want to see N confront Ghetsis."''
: ''"If that is what you desire…"''

====Pokémon Black 2 and White 2====
;[[Driftveil City]]
* Before battle
:''"Oh! So you're interested in Team Plasma, are you?"''
:''"My guest. If you're going to come inside, I would like to see what kind of person you are, Trainer. That's right. In a Pokémon battle. Do you find this acceptable?"''
::'''Yes''':''"Let us begin!"''
::'''No''':''"Then, I'm afraid I must ask you to leave."''

* Upon being defeated
:''"Ho! You fight as if you really understand your Pokémon!"''

* After being defeated
:''"I apologize for testing you. Being former members of Team Plasma, we must deal with a lot…"''
:''"And that is? Your friend? He may join us."''

* Inside the house
:''"Let me introduce myself again. My name is Rood."''
:''"More accurately, we're former members of Team Plasma. Because of the incident two years ago, we started taking care of the Pokémon that were separated from their Trainers as a way to atone for our misdeeds. And you are?"''
:''"Is that so… My sincerest apologies…"''
:''"The Pokémon you speak of is not in this place. I imagine it is still being used by Team Plasma now. Just as you say, our apologizing doesn't solve anything. But you can't move forward unless you admit you were wrong and apologize…"''
:''"Team Plasma made Trainers like him suffer… I feel terrible about it… How foolish we were… <Player>, as you can see, I can't do anything to thank you. Actually, I have a favor to ask of you. Could you please look after this Pokémon, {{p|Zorua}}?"''
::'''Yes''':''"Oh! Thank you!"''
::'''No''':''"If you change your mind, please come speak to me again."''
:''"That Zorua is one of the Pokémon that my lord [[N]] relied on as a friend during his journey."''
:''"My lord N is a wonderful person who has the power to understand the hearts of Pokémon. But still, he has much to learn about understanding the hearts of people... I hope he will develop this skill while he travels with the legendary Pokémon to atone for the trouble he caused in Unova as the king of Team Plasma."''

;{{rt|6|Unova}}
:''"That Pokémon…?"''
:''"Oh, {{p|Cobalion}}! What a noble presence!"''
:''"Unforgivable… So the reach of [[Ghetsis]]'s ambition and malice is growing ever wider and warping the lives of all it touches…"''
:''"Did Cobalion appear in front of you merely by accident? Or to plead with you to solve a problem? Unlike Lord N, I don't have the ability to understand the minds of Pokémon. Therefore, I don't know what that Pokémon is thinking. But if you can befriend Cobalion, it will be a great asset to you on your journey."''

;[[Giant Chasm]]
* Before Team Plasma's withdrawal
:''"Aah! I will say it as many times as it takes until you understand! Ghetsis's real plan was to take over the Unova region! Liberating Pokémon was nothing more than an excuse! If anything, it would've made Pokémon suffer!"''
:''"Are your Pokémon OK? You should take these with you!"''
:''"[[Hugh|You]], too."''
:''"At times like these, those whose hearts weaken, those whose determination falters, can accomplish nothing! To save our old allies, to protect Unova, we will fight!"''
:''"Both of you, go! No, just a moment… Hugh, was it? About the Pokémon you're looking for… In all likelihood, it is in the possession of the [[Shadow Triad]]--the dark warriors who appear silently."''
:''"At that time, I believed we were on the side of justice. By serving my king, N, I was going to make a world without war. But I was conceited, and I couldn't see the unhappiness we were causing. That's why I can't let it happen again!"''

* After Team Plasma's withdrawal
:''"Oh! You're safe! I'm so glad! As for [[Plasma Frigate|Team Plasma's ship]], a [[Colress|man in a white lab coat]] appeared. He said that a Trainer had given him the answer he'd been seeking, and, as thanks, he would disband Team Plasma…Then he said, "Farewell! Walk a just path with Pokémon!" and he flew the ship away. So everything has been resolved. We were even able to confirm that Lord N is safe."''

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Rood appears as a member of the Seven Sages in the {{chap|Black & White}}. Three years prior to the start of the chapter, he is tasked with finding the Mythical Pokémon {{p|Victini}} so that it may use its powers to bring victory for Team Plasma.

Rood first appears alongside the other sages in ''[[PS467|Letting Go]]'' walking with Ghetsis after the latter gave a speech on releasing Pokémon to the public. Although not seen in person, he sends three {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s to capture Victini for Team Plasma on [[Liberty Garden]]. They were defeated by {{adv|Black}}, who used Victini's ability to bring victory to help him defeat the Grunts' Pokémon. After {{adv|N}} awakens {{p|Zekrom}} from the [[Dark Stone]], Rood and the other sages watch as N attempts to befriend Zekrom and have it join Team Plasma's cause.

At the {{un|Pokémon League}}, Team Plasma enacts its plan and summons N's Castle from the depths of the earth to surround the League building. Rood and the other Sages emerge from the castle as they watch the chaos unfold. {{adv|Black}} attempts to confront them, but Ghetsis easily defeats Black's team. With no way to save the Gym Leaders, stop the Grunts causing havoc below, and face N in battle, Black is assisted by several Trainers that he had met over the course of his journey. The Trainers battle against the sages and rescue the Gym Leaders from the bindings. The Gym Leaders then help battle the sages, but Rood and the others eventually escape from the battle without being seen.

In the {{chap|Black 2 & White 2}}, Rood and the other Seven Sages were sought after by [[International Police]] members {{adv|Blake}} and [[Looker]], who aimed to arrest them along with the other remaining Team Plasma members. Unlike the other Sages, Rood, along with Gorm, decided to side with the members of Team Plasma who believed in N's ideals.

In ''[[PS539|Frozen World]]'', Rood appears in [[Castelia City]] just as it was frozen by the power of Team Plasma's flying ship, the [[Plasma Frigate]]. There, he meets with {{adv|Whitley}}, a former Team Plasma Grunt who was tasked with guarding a memory card containing data that could counteract the Pokémon-controlling [[Colress Machine]]. Whitley reveals that [[Hugh]], a student at the [[Aspertia City]] Trainers' School, found the pendant containing the memory card after she had lost it. Rood's subordinates search Hugh, but are unable to find the memory card on his person, which makes Whitley realize it must have been left behind at the Trainers' School.

Rood decides to head to the Trainers' School immediately, but Whitley is reluctant to leave her unconscious classmates behind due to them being suspicious of her identity as a member of Team Plasma. Rood sends out a {{TP|N|Zorua}} that was friends with N and has it {{a|Illusion|turn}} into Whitley so that her classmates may be fooled long enough to find the card. Before they can act, a {{p|Mandibuzz}} is sent out from the Plasma Frigate and attempts to capture Rood. Whitley pushes Rood out of the way, but ends up getting captured and is taken aboard the Plasma Frigate.

In [[PS543]], Rood took Hugh to the Trainers' School and requested that he reveal the location of the memory card. Hugh refused, as Team Plasma stole his [[Hugh's sister|little sister]]'s {{p|Purrloin}} years ago. Rood assured Hugh that Purrloin was safe in the care of someone else. A group of Plasma Grunts appeared to attack them, but were stopped by Hugh, who gave his room key to Rood and told him to retrieve the memory card.

==Trivia==
* Rood is the only sage that gives a [[TM]] that raises the user's stats by a total of one stage. The TMs given by the other sages either raise one stat two stages or two stats one stage.
* In Black and White, Rood quotes a proverb from the {{wp|Analects}} and makes a reference to a Chinese idiom at N's Castle.
* Rood can be seen as Zinzolin's parallel in that Rood is a sage who decided to stay with the sect that remains loyal to N while Zinzolin joins the other sect that is loyal to Ghetsis.
* The Zorua given to the player by Rood has 30 IV's in every stat.

{{Incomplete|2=Add more info}}
'''Awakening values''', abbreviated '''AVs''', are a mechanic introduced in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], replacing [[effort values]]. Similar to EVs, AVs are used to increase a Pokémon's [[statistic|stats]], but are awarded through the use of [[candy]] and [[level]]ing up, rather than by defeating other Pokémon in [[battle]]s.

==Measuring AVs==
Using certain [[candy]] and raising a Pokémon's [[level]] are the only ways to increase a Pokémon's AVs. A Pokémon can have a maximum of 200 AVs for every stat, meaning that it is possible to max out every stat rather than just two.

Every additional AV corresponds to one stat point added after all other calculations are made, meaning that a Pokémon with maxed out AVs will have an additional 200 stat points regardless of [[level]], [[nature]], [[IV]] or [[friendship]].

White Ruins (anime)

{{AnimeLocationInfobox

|epicode=BW117

}}

The '''White Ruins''' (Japanese: '''白の遺跡''' ''White Ruins'') are an {{pkmn|anime}}-exclusive location in the [[Unova]] [[region]]. They are located above the [[Dragonspiral Tower]], near [[Icirrus City]].

The White Ruins were first mentioned by [[Cedric Juniper]] in ''[[BW109|New Faces...Familiar Faces!]]'' when he called his daughter, [[Professor Juniper]], at her lab. He thought the ruins had something to do with the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Reshiram}}. Seeing how excited {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} were, he invited them to come visit him at the ruins and the group took a boat later in the episode that was on its way toward the White Ruins.

In ''[[BW117|Team Plasma's Pokémon Manipulation!]]'', the White Ruins were shown for the first time when [[Team Plasma]] was reporting to [[Ghetsis]] about their progress.

With the help of Cedric Juniper and [[Looker]], Ash, {{an|Iris}}, and {{an|Cilan}} were taken to visit them in ''[[BW120|Ash and N: A Clash of Ideals!]]''. There, they met with {{an|N}}. Before Ash and his friends arrived, Cedric Juniper had found the {{DL|Dragon Stones|Light Stone}}, which contained Reshiram, but it was taken away by N. During their stay, the ruins were attacked by a large amount of {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s.

In ''[[BW121|Team Plasma and the Awakening Ceremony!]]'', Team Plasma's plan continued, as they managed to control all of the worker's Pokémon using the device [[Colress]] created. Ash and {{cat|Ash's Pokémon|his Pokemon}} tried to stop Team Plasma's plans, but it was late since [[Ghetsis]] appeared, took the Light Stone, and went on to revive Reshiram.

In ''[[BW122|What Lies Beyond Truth and Ideals!]]'', Reshiram finally awoke, and Colress put it under Team Plasma's control, while [[Anthea and Concordia]] arrived at the scene. They tried to battle against Team Plasma, only to find their Pokémon controlled by Colress as well. After a long battle with {{AP|Pikachu}} and a talk with N, Reshiram flew away while [[Looker]] arrested Team Plasma. In the end, N with Anthea and Concordia left for their forest haven, Cedric Juniper stayed at the ruins as Ash and his friends left, en route to [[Nuvema Town]].

'''Leaf''' (Japanese: '''リーフ''' ''Leaf'') is the female [[player character]] in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. Her male counterpart is {{ga|Red}}.

==Story==
{{spoilers}}
===In Red, Green and Blue===
Though Leaf didn't appear in a game until [[Generation III]], an artwork of an [[List of unused Pokémon and character designs#Female main character|unknown female character]] drawn by [[Ken Sugimori]] was released in the games' official strategy guide. The same character was featured in the Pokémon Craft DX magazine, drawn by Emiko Yoshino. This character shared many physical similarities with Leaf, and was also featured with {{p|Squirtle|a starter Pokémon}}, implying she was intended to be a main character.

===In FireRed and LeafGreen===
====As the player character====
Leaf's adventure begins after [[Professor Oak]] calls her to his lab and gives her a [[Starter Pokémon|choice of Pokémon]]. Blue challenges Leaf to a [[Pokémon battle]] as soon as they get their Pokémon. A bit later, Professor Oak calls the two back, gives each of them a [[Pokédex]], and sends them on a journey to fulfill their dream of capturing every kind of Pokémon.

Leaf travels all over Kanto, filling in the [[Pokédex]] and defeating the [[Gym Leader]]s. Her [[rival]] Blue constantly stays one step ahead, and shows up quite a few times to impede her progress. When Leaf eventually reaches the [[Elite Four]], she finds that Blue has beaten her to a milestone yet again and has become the [[Indigo League]] {{pkmn|Champion}}. Leaf defeats Blue in the final battle, and becomes the Champion herself. Her adventure continues even after that, with Leaf discovering new places, such as the [[Sevii Islands]].

Leaf's main conflict in the games, aside from Blue, is [[Team Rocket]], an infamous group of Pokémon thieves. Leaf clashes with Team Rocket many times in her quest. She defeats a group of grunts at [[Mt. Moon]] who are attempting to steal rare Pokémon [[Fossil]]s, and defeats another group ahead at a bridge in [[Cerulean City]]. Leaf protects the [[Pokémon Tower]] and [[Mr. Fuji]] in [[Lavender Town]] and destroys their hold on the [[Celadon Game Corner|Game Corner]]. After she foils their plot to take over [[Silph Co.]], Leaf encounters [[Giovanni]], the leader of Team Rocket, as the final Gym Leader in [[Viridian City]]. Upon defeating him, Leaf stops the group's world domination plots once and for all, though a few remaining grunts, many who appeared and were defeated by Leaf on [[Five Island]] in [[Generation III]], would band together in [[Johto]] to [[Generation II|try to revive the group]].

====As a non-player character====
When not selected as the player character, Leaf does not appear in the game. Whether or not Leaf exists in this case is unknown.

===In other games===
Leaf makes a cameo appearance in both [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]]. While she does not appear in the games' Story Mode, she is playable in the Battle Mode when a FireRed or LeafGreen cartridge is used with her as the player character. She can take on [[Mt. Battle]]'s 100-battle challenge, as well as compete in Colosseum battles.

==Counterparts==
===In the manga===
====In Pokémon Adventures manga====
[[File:Green Adventures.png|thumb|250px|right|Green, Leaf's counterpart in Pokémon Adventures]]
{{main|Green (Adventures)}}
{{adv|Green}} from the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, who appears to be based on an [[Pokémon Red and Green beta#Female player character|unused female player character]] from {{game|Red and Green|s}}, is widely considered to be Leaf's counterpart in the manga. This is supported by the fact that Green's outfit changes to match Leaf's in the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}.

====In Pokémon Ruby-Sapphire manga====
{{main|Blue (Ruby-Sapphire)}}
Leaf also has a counterpart in the [[Pokémon Ruby-Sapphire]] manga series named {{OBP|Blue|Ruby-Sapphire}}.

==Trivia==
* In [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]], {{p|Jigglypuff}} can wear Leaf's hat as an alternate costume. The {{SSB|Pokémon Trainer}} also has an alternate costume palette that makes his hat have the same colors as Leaf's.
* Leaf's hat somewhat resembles a Premier Ball.
* Leaf's FireRed and LeafGreen sprite shows her with blue eyes, although every other sprite and the official artwork shows her with brown eyes.
* The majority of her Japanese default names are shared with {{ga|Dawn}} and {{ga|Lyra}}. She also shares all of {{ga|Kris}}'s alternate Japanese names.
* Though she is neither playable nor an opponent in the handheld [[Generation IV]] games, Leaf made a brief cameo battling against {{ga|Red}} in an early trailer for [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]] on the Wii.
* Leaf is the only non-rival female player character to have a [[Blue (Ruby-Sapphire)|counterpart]] who appeared in Pokémon Pocket Monsters.

===Name origin===
Although "Leaf" is by far the name she is most commonly known by among English-speaking fans, she has no official given name. The name's popularity stems from its usage as a placeholder name for the character in Trainer data on the ROMs of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, but this derivation is contentious because, by way of contrast, the equivalent name for the rival {{ga|Blue}} ("Terry") does not match any of his canonical names. That inconsistency leads some fans to prefer the name of her {{adv|Green|Adventures' counterpart}} as a more logical choice ("Green"/"Blue"<sup>JP&KOR</sup>).

She is also sometimes referred to as '''''Fuguri''''' (フグリ) in the Japanese fandom. The name is derived from the katakana rendering of ''LeafGreen'', リー'''フグリ'''ーン (rī'''fugurī'''n).

==Names==
The following names originate from the internal game data of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. Names that are popularly used by the fans may differ.

Pokémon League

2018-03-04T04:07:50Z

NAOKi:

:''This article is about Pokémon League Championship. For the locations in Sinnoh, Unova, Kalos, or Alola, see [[Pokémon League (Sinnoh)]], [[Pokémon League (Unova)]], [[Pokémon League (Kalos)]], or [[Pokémon League (Alola)]]. For the system in the Pokémon Trading Card Game, see [[Pokémon League (TCG)]]''
----
[[File:Pokémon League.png|thumb|220px|A Pokémon League poster]]
The '''Pokémon League''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンリーグ''' ''Pokémon League'') is a group that organizes {{cat|Pokémon competitions}} for registered [[Pokémon Trainer]]s. It serves as an umbrella that oversees the [[region]]al Leagues.

There are eight known regional Leagues under the Pokémon League: the [[Indigo League]] in [[Kanto]], the [[Orange League]] in the [[Orange Archipelago]], the [[Johto League]] in [[Johto]], the [[Hoenn League]] in [[Hoenn]], the [[Sinnoh League]] in [[Sinnoh]], the [[Unova League]] in [[Unova]], the [[Kalos League]] in [[Kalos]] and the [[Alola League]] in [[Alola]].

In order to participate in regional competitions, Trainers must acquire a certain number of [[Gym]] [[Badge]]s signifying the defeat of that region's [[Gym Leader]]s, or in the case of Alola, complete the [[island challenge]].

In the {{pkmn|anime}}, the League Competition Committee is presided by [[Charles Goodshow]] and its functions are similar to those of the [[Pokémon Activities Committee]], which organizes [[Pokémon Contest]]s and [[Grand Festival]] tournaments for registered {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s. The Pokémon League apparently manufactures and distributes Pokémon merchandise, such as {{Ash}}'s {{DL|Ash's hat|Pokémon League Expo hat}}.

==In the games==
In the [[core series]] [[Pokémon games]], every [[region]] has a Pokémon League. The League challenge consists of collecting eight [[Gym]] [[Badge]]s (or in Alola's case, beating the island challenge) and challenging the [[Elite Four]], as well as the {{pkmn|Champion|League Champion}} immediately after defeating the Elite Four members. Winners are invited into the [[Hall of Fame]].

* [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] have the [[Indigo League]] and the [[Johto League]], respectively, both hosted at [[Indigo Plateau]].
* [[Hoenn]] has the [[Hoenn League]] at [[Ever Grande City]].
* [[Sinnoh]] has the [[Sinnoh League]] at the {{si|Pokémon League}} building on an unnamed island.
* [[Unova]] has the [[Unova League]] at the {{un|Pokémon League}} building in an unnamed area.
* [[Kalos]] has the [[Kalos League]] at the {{kal|Pokémon League}} building in an unnamed area.
* [[Alola]] has the [[Alola League]] at the {{al|Pokémon League}} building on the summit of [[Mount Lanakila]].

In Sinnoh, Unova, Kalos, and Hoenn{{sup/6|ORAS}}, the place that holds the regional Pokémon League is simply called "Pokémon League", including the building itself. In Alola, only the building itself is called "Pokémon League".

==In the anime==
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, the Pokémon League challenge is divided into two parts: the Pokémon League Conference and the Champion League.

===Pokémon League Conference===
{{main|Pokémon League Conference}}
The Pokémon League Conference is a {{wp|single-elimination tournament}} between {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who have collected at least eight [[Gym]] [[Badge]]s from a specific [[region]]. Other ways of getting into the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]] besides collecting Badges have been shown, such as by passing the Pokémon League Admissions Exam, as seen in ''[[EP056|The Ultimate Test]]'', or by graduating from [[Pokémon Tech]], as seen in ''[[EP009|The School of Hard Knocks]]''.

Rules vary from region to region, but generally, championship competitions are divided into three parts: qualifying rounds, preliminary rounds, and final rounds. Highly skilled Trainers will move on to compete with a smaller pool of competitors. The Trainer that defeats all other competitors is deemed the winner of the competition. Losing Trainers who participate in the competition will be ranked accordingly.

The League Conferences are known for their many traditions, including the opening celebration which evokes the flame of {{p|Moltres}}, alluding to the {{wp|Olympic flame}}. [[Charles Goodshow]] serves as the president of the League Competition Committee.

===Champion League===
[[File:Champion League Stadium.png|thumb|220px|Champion League Stadium]]
After winning a Pokémon League Conference, a Trainer may enter the Champion League of the relevant region, where the [[Elite Four]] and the {{pkmn|Champion|League Champion}} await. Like in the {{pkmn|games}}, Trainers must defeat all members of the Elite Four for the right of challenging the Champion. Once the Elite Four is defeated, Champions are required to defend their title from challengers. If the battle against the challenger is won, Champions hold on to their current status. However, if the challenger succeeds, Champions must relinquish their title to the winning Trainer, who will then be deemed the new Pokémon Champion.

In the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}, all members of the {{DL|Elite Four|Sinnoh Elite Four}} but [[Bertha]] have been shown challenging [[Cynthia]] for her title. It is unknown if they had to defeat their Elite colleagues or if they requested a battle from the Champion straight away. So far, the only mentions of the Champion League have been in ''[[DP035|An Elite Meet and Greet!]]'', ''[[DP099|A Trainer and Child Reunion!]]'', ''[[BW031|Ash and Trip's Third Battle!]]'', and ''[[BW052|Ash Versus the Champion!]]''.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], the Pokémon League consists of a regional tournament held every three years in each region. There are two ways of qualifying for the tournament—either by having eight Gym Badges or defeating a large number of other applicants without Gym Badges in preliminary rounds. The Pokémon League is sanctioned and run by the [[Pokémon Association]]. One rule that is incorporated into each featured tournament is that, should just one of a Trainer's Pokémon [[Fainting|faint]], then that Trainer automatically loses.

In addition, there is no Elite Four challenge. The Elite Four are simply powerful groups of four Trainers from each region who ally themselves with each other for power, and their activities are not sanctioned by the Pokémon League or related to the Pokémon Association—in fact, the activities of Kanto's Elite Four were villainous in nature.

The Hoenn League added new rules to the Pokémon League tournament. The person that wins the tournament will be allowed to fight the Elite Four, four previous winners of the tournament. The Sinnoh Elite Four was enlisted by Pokémon Association to decode [[Charon]]'s notebook in order to find out more about his aspiration, and the Johto Elite Four is made up of ex-criminals who are seeking emotional support from each other by training together.

The Unova League is similar to the Hoenn League. As explained by {{adv|Black}}, participants can only compete when they have won eight Gym Badges. The Trainers that have earned eight Gym Badges are allowed to enter the Unova League tournament. The winner of this tournament is then allowed to fight the Elite Four, and then they will be allowed to fight the Champion.

'''Nate''' (Japanese: '''キョウヘイ''' ''Kyōhei'') is the male [[player character]] in {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}. His female counterpart is {{ga|Rosa}}.

==In the games==
===As the protagonist===
Nate is a young boy living in [[Aspertia City]] with his childhood friend [[Hugh]]. At the start of the game, he sets off with Hugh to collect his first Pokémon. They then go their separate ways and he starts his journey across the [[Unova]] region.
====Rental Pokémon in [[Pokéstar Studios]]====
:''For all rental teams used by the player at Pokéstar Studios, see [[Nate (game)/Pokéstar Studios|here]].''

===As a non-playable character===
If the player chooses {{ga|Rosa}}, Nate will appear in game as an NPC, first met in [[Nimbasa City]]. He will join the player in a [[Multi Battle]] against [[Subway Boss Emmet|Emmet]] and [[Subway Boss Ingo|Ingo]]. Afterwards, he will give the player the [[Vs. Recorder]].

Nate will then appear as the player's partner in the [[Battle Subway]] when choosing to ride the Multi-Train.

'''In front of [[Gear Station]]'''
*Before battle
: ''"I heard that in Gear Station you can have Pokémon battles in the subway! So I came here to test my skills, and, what do you know… the {{tc|Subway Boss|Subway Bosses}} were here! Isn't that amazing? I mean, they're the strongest Trainers in Gear Station! And they said they'd battle if it's two on two! This is an awesome opportunity! Would you battle with me?"''
:: '''Yes''': ''"Thanks! Oh! The name's Nate! Pokémon-fan synergy can create a combination that's better than perfect! So I'll have you help me battle the Subway Bosses, then!"''
:: '''No''': ''"Oh, I see! You aren't ready yet! OK, I'll stop them for now, but let's battle together sometime!"''
: ''"You're prepared, right? Will you battle alongside me?"''

*After battle
: ''"They were really tough, even when they weren't going all out! That's the Subway Bosses for you! I want to get even stronger and battle the Subway Bosses when they're giving it their all! Thanks, <player>! This is a token of my appreciation! Here!"''
: ''"When you have the [[Vs. Recorder]], you can record your battles with your friends or battles on the Battle Subway!"''
: ''"<Player>! I had a really great time battling with you! I hope we can battle together again sometime! See you!"''

Kanto Route 26

'''Route 26''' (Japanese: '''２６ばんどうろ''' ''Route 26'') is a [[route]] in southwest [[Kanto]], connecting {{rt|27|Kanto}} and the [[Pokémon League Reception Gate]].

==Route description==
From its southern terminus at {{rt|27|Kanto}}, Route 26 continues east on a bridge over a body of [[Water tile|water]] for eight paces before turning north, where a {{pkmn|Trainer}} waits. About fifteen paces north of the northward turn, Route 26 makes landfall for the first time. At this point, the [[route]] turns to the northeast for a short distance, passing through several [[Tall grass|grassy areas]] filled with [[wild Pokémon]], after which another Trainer waits at a three-way intersection. To the west is the southern exit of a southbound-only express route, which occupies the west side of Route 26 and can be used to quickly return to Route 27, the [[Tohjo Falls]], and [[Johto]]. To the north are more grass patches and the main path of Route 26 as it continues on.

Free of grass for the remainder of the route, the road continues north for another twenty paces before intersecting the northern terminus of the express path. North of this intersection is a rest stop similar to that on {{rt|111|Hoenn}} in [[Hoenn]]. Next to this house is an [[Ice Berry]] tree{{sup/2|GSC}} or a [[Blue Apricorn|Blu Apricorn]]{{sup/4|HGSS}}.

Route 26 turns northwest from the rest stop, passing another Trainer before returning northward. Twenty-five paces ahead, {{tc|Ace Trainer|Cooltrainer}} Gaven{{sup/2|GSC}} / {{tc|Ace Trainer}} Gaven{{sup/4|HGSS}} awaits on the west bank of a small pond located east of the route. Upon defeating him, he will offer to exchange numbers in the [[Pokégear]] for future rematches.

Continuing towards the [[Pokémon League Reception Gate]], the road turns northeast ahead of another southbound-only express path. The route straightens out, taking on a northern alignment as it passes another Trainer hidden in an alcove and Cooltrainer Beth{{sup/2|GSC}} / Ace Trainer Jamie{{sup/4|HGSS}} at the northern terminus of both the express path and Route 26. She will also offer to exchange numbers after {{pkmn|battle|battling}}.

Just north of her is the south entrance to the Pokémon League Reception Gate as well as the signpost that gives the gate its formal name.

===Northern express path===
Southwest of the [[Pokémon League Reception Gate]] is a series of ledges enclosed by the eastern side of a large mountain (which comprises the western edge of Route 26) and a series of hills between the express path and the main path of the route. Together, the ledges make a southbound-only path that can be used to quickly travel down Route 26. A [[Max Elixir]] is also located amongst the ledges. The path rejoins Route 26 northwest of a small pond.

===Southern express path===
The southern express path begins south of the rest stop at an intersection with Route 26. After heading west, the path enters a large area of grass, which encompasses most of the northern portion of the path. Eight paces to the west, the express route turns south for another ten paces before circling east around a house, which happens to be the home of the [[Week Siblings]], although none of them are present. A note on the table inside reveals the location of every sibling and the [[days of the week]] on which they will appear.

South of the house, the path hops over a ledge, effectively making the path southbound-only. Here, it meets the southern entrance to the express path. Traveling east along the entrance is prohibited by a ledge that separates the entrance from the path.

Continuing south of the one-way intersection, the path hops over two more ledges before reaching the body of water that encompasses most of the southern terminus. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s can either {{m|surf}} east across the water to the bridge or turn to the west and continue along the express path, which continues for a short distance before forcing Trainers to hop a ledge onto {{rt|27|Kanto}}.

==Differences among generations==
===Generation II===
This [[route]] is very grassy yet with several rocky outcroppings in the east and west and tiny rocks along the road. The sea rocks follow the shape of the bridge and trees are in the south borders of the route. There is also a portion of sea at the northeastern end of the route.

Although it is located in [[Kanto]], the route uses only [[Johto]] tile sets as opposed to Kanto's.

===Generation IV===
In this [[generation]], a large amount of rocky hills are added along the road, making the [[route]] less grassy and more like a mountain. While the hills are of an altitude of one tile in the original games, they have an altitude of thirteen rocky outcroppings in the [[remake]]s: two hills are placed after the two southern ledges, one hill is added north of the rest house and four hills are placed along the road, the others are only for decoration and they are placed in the borders of the route. There is also an island in the southeast, and now the {{player}} can {{m|surf}} under the bridges. The trees in the west section and the sea portion in the northeast are also removed.

Unlike in [[Generation II]], the tile sets instead use [[Kanto]]-style trees and a mix of [[Johto]]-style and Kanto-style rocks.

====Other changes====
After beating the {{DL|Elite Four|Kanto/Johto Elite Four|Elite Four}} for the first time and boarding the [[S.S. Aqua]], the {{pkmn|battle}} music changes from the Johto style to the Kanto style. This change was not present in the original {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} nor in {{game|Crystal}}. This also occurs in the [[Tohjo Falls]], {{ka|Victory Road}}, {{rt|27|Kanto|Routes 27}} and {{rtn|28|Kanto}}.

Unlike on Routes 27 and 28, the {{player}} is able to {{m|fly}} to both [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] from this [[route]] (as well as from the [[Indigo Plateau]]). In [[Generation II]], the player cannot fly to Johto from anywhere in Kanto, which includes Routes 26 to 28 and the Indigo Plateau.

==In other games==
[[HarmoKnight]], a [[Game Freak]] title released on the {{wp|Nintendo eShop}} for the [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]], has a stage level inspired by this [[route]].

The '''Nintendo 2DS''' (Japanese: '''ニンテンドー２ＤＳ''' ''Nintendo 2DS'') is a [[Nintendo 3DS]] model that does not display 3D images and has a tablet-like design rather than a clamshell design. It was announced on August 28, 2013, and was released on October 12, 2013 alongside the releases of [[Pokémon X and Y]].

It has a recommended retail price of $129.99 for the United States. The system comes with a Nintendo 3DS charger, Nintendo 2DS stylus, 4GB {{wp|SDHC}} card, and AR Cards. A carrying case is available separately.

The Nintendo 2DS has a slightly longer battery life than the original Nintendo 3DS, but slightly shorter than the [[Nintendo 3DS XL]]. Due to being unable to be closed, it has a Sleep Switch. It does not have Power Saving Mode. For games which have a mechanic dependent on closing the console, such as {{zw|The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass}} and {{wp|Another Code: Two Memories}}, the Sleep Mode switch behaves the same way for gameplay purposes.<ref>[https://twitter.com/GAMEdigital/status/373043170965454848 GAME Twitter]</ref> It maintains full 2D compatibility with the [[Nintendo 3DS themes]].

Unlike the other Nintendo 3DS models, it has a single monaural speaker; however, it still retains full stereo audio when using headphones. It is slightly heavier than the original Nintendo 3DS, but lighter than the Nintendo 3DS XL. It can take 3D photos, but they can only be viewed in 2D unless transferred to a 3D-capable system.

No version of the {{wp|Circle Pad Pro}} for the Nintendo 2DS has been released.

====Patches====
Patches for various Pokémon games have been released on the Nintendo eShop. Additionally, Pokémon Shuffle can update itself when performing the daily check-in, but such updates cannot be downloaded through the Nintendo eShop. If an update is available on Nintendo eShop for a game the player has, the update has not been downloaded yet and there is an attempt to launch that game while connected to the internet, the system will inform the player of the update and offer to go straight to the update in Nintendo eShop to download it.

The '''Nintendo DSi XL''' (Japanese: '''ニンテンドー{{j|DSi LL}}''' ''Nintendo DSi LL'') is the third redesign of the [[Nintendo DS]] after the [[Nintendo DS Lite|DS Lite]] and [[Nintendo DSi|DSi]]. The DSi XL is only a slight redesign of the original Nintendo DSi and was made with the same hardware. Its main new features are a larger 4.2 inch screen and new colors. The system was released in Japan on November 21, 2009 in the colors WineRed/Burgundy, DarkBrown/Bronze, and NaturalWhite. It was released in the US on March 28, 2010, on time of Nintendo's "release in the first quarter of 2010" promise.

It was made to rival the {{wp|PlayStation Portable}} in size and offer options to elderly players. According to [[Nintendo]], the system was made to give players a different option to the [[Nintendo DSi]], similar to the [[Game Boy Advance SP]] and the [[Game Boy micro]] compared to the original [[Game Boy Advance]].

==Software==
Preloaded on the internal memory for the Japanese DSi LL is the {{wp|Nintendo DS & DSi Browser|DSi Browser}}, {{wp|Flipnote Studio}}, {{wp|Brain Age Express: Arts & Letters}}, {{wp|Brain Age Express|Brain Age Express: Math}}, and Meikyou Kokugo Rakubiki Jiten, a dictionary program. The European release includes the games {{wp|Brain Age Express|Dr. Kawashima's Little Bit of Brain Training: Arts Edition}} and Dictionary 6 in 1 with Camera Function alongside the DSi Browser. The North American version includes the DSi Browser, Flipnote Studio, Brain Age Express: Arts & Letters, Brain Age Express: Math, along with the Photo Clock.

It is also capable of downloading and playing DSiWare. Like the DSi, there is no slot for [[Game Boy Advance]] cartridges, disabling the ability to use [[Pal Park]] and [[dual-slot mode]] in the [[Generation IV]] games.

Magnet Train

2018-01-28T07:40:19Z

NAOKi: /* In other languages */

{{incomplete|2=Missing layout images from HGSS}}
{{Infobox location
|image=Magnet Train arrive HGSS.png
|image_size=256
|type=building
|location_name=Magnet Train
|japanese_name=リニアモーターカー
|translated_name=Maglev Train (Linear Motorcar)

|map=Kanto Saffron City Map.png
}}

The '''Magnet Train''' (Japanese: '''リニアモーターカー''' ''Maglev Train'', lit. ''Linear Motorcar'') is found in [[Johto]] and [[Kanto]] during the [[Generation II]] and {{gen|IV}} [[core series]] [[Pokémon games]]. It is a {{wp|maglev}} that [[Transportation in the Pokémon world|runs]] between [[Goldenrod City]] and [[Saffron City]]. It allows rapid travel between the two cities, moving at over 340 miles per hour (over 550 kilometers per hour).

==In the games==
[[File:Magnet Train HGSS.png|thumb|left|The Magnet Train along the track in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}]]
Initially, the train is out of service because a {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}} has stolen the {{key|II|Machine Part|Machine}} {{key|IV|Machine Part|Part}} from the [[Kanto Power Plant]]. After defeating him in [[Cerulean City]], players can retrieve the part from the [[Cerulean Gym]] and return it to the Power Plant. With the component back in place, the train has the necessary power to run.

To board the train, a potential rider must have a {{key|IV|Pass}}. The {{OBP|Copycat|character}} of [[Saffron City]] has one (given to her as compensation for the fact that the station in Saffron is built where her house used to be), and is willing to give it up as a reward for returning her {{key|II|Lost Item|Lost}} {{key|IV|Lost Item|Item}}, a {{DL|Escape item|Poké Doll}} that {{ga|Red}} gave to her three years before, which is in the possession of a man at the [[Pokémon Fan Club]] in [[Vermilion City]].

Of the three methods offered in the game to commute between Johto and Kanto, the Magnet Train is much faster and runs more often than the [[S.S. Aqua]], which runs on a set schedule between [[Olivine City]] and [[Vermilion City]].

In [[Generation II]], the Magnet Train runs on the railway tracks along the ground. In [[Generation IV]], the train and its station run along an elevated track, much like a {{wp|monorail}}, though this track goes underground as it approaches Saffron City.

In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, [[Lt. Surge]] will appear at Saffron City's Magnet Train station after the {{player}} has caught {{p|Zapdos}} at the Power Plant and obtained his phone number, willing to trade the player his {{wp|France|French}} {{p|Pikachu}}, Volty, in exchange for a regular Pikachu.

==In the anime==
[[File:Magnet Train anime.png|250px|thumb|The incomplete Magnet Train from ''[[EP158|A Goldenrod Opportunity]]'']]
In ''[[EP158|A Goldenrod Opportunity]]'', {{TRT}} had to use a cart to get from Goldenrod City to Saffron City in order to escape from {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, {{an|Brock}}, and [[Whitney]], because the Magnet Train would not be ready until a year from the following Tuesday.

The Magnet Train was mentioned in ''[[BW141|Best Wishes Until We Meet Again!]]'', where {{an|Iris}} and {{an|Cilan}} made plans to travel to Saffron City by taking the Magnet Train line to Goldenrod City. This suggests the Magnet Train was finally completed.
{{-}}

==In the manga==
[[File:Magnet Train PM.png|thumb|200px|The Magnet Train in Pokémon Pocket Monsters]]
[[File:Magnet Train Adventures.png|thumb|200px|left|The Magnet Train in Pokémon Adventures]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
The Magnet Train appeared in ''[[PS154|Yikes, It's Yanma!]]'', where it was used to transport the [[Gym Leader]]s of both the Kanto and Johto regions to the [[Indigo Plateau]] for the tournament held there, the event being its maiden voyage. The Magnet Train line was routed through the Indigo Plateau for the event. When [[Neo Team Rocket]] attacked the Indigo Plateau, they took control of the Magnet Train and stationed {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s inside. They tricked the Gym Leaders into boarding the train, which then departed, leaving the Indigo Plateau wide open for an attack by the [[Masked Man]]'s {{p|Ho-Oh}} and {{p|Lugia}}. Sometime later, in ''[[PS169|The Last Battle III]]'', it took [[Brock's Geodude]] and {{adv|Red}}'s [[Snor]]'s combined efforts to stop the train when it became out-of-control and couldn't be stopped normally.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
The Magnet Train appeared in ''[[PM104|The Great Helper!]]''.

==Trivia==
[[File:Magnet Train GSC.png|thumb|190px|The Magnet Train station in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}]]
* The Magnet Train is most likely based on either the {{wp|Tōkaidō Shinkansen}} bullet train that runs from {{wp|Tokyo}} to {{wp|Osaka}}, or the planned {{wp|Chūō Shinkansen}} maglev line between the same two cities. Tokyo and Osaka are Saffron City and Goldenrod City's respective real-world counterparts.
** The Tōkaidō Shinkansen is powered by an electrical {{wp|overhead line}}, while the Magnet Train is a maglev, propelled by a moving magnetic field.
* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the Magnet Train's tracks are visible on {{rt|32|Johto}}, traveling overhead. However, the tracks are not visible on any [[route]] in [[Kanto]], nor on [[Route]]s {{rtn|30|Johto}} or {{rtn|46|Johto}}.
* One of the {{DL|Pokégear|radio|programs}} on the [[Pokégear]] mentions rumors about a ghost Magnet Train.
* In {{g|X and Y}}, a {{tc|Lass}} in {{DL|Lumiose City|Lumiose Station}} states that the {{pkmn|world}}'s fastest train can travel at 310 miles per hour (500 kilometers per hour), despite the Magnet Train being able to reach speeds of over 340 miles per hour (over 550 kilometers per hour).

Pokémon in South Korea

}}
The [[Pokémon]] ('''{{tt|포켓몬스터|Poketmonseuteo}}''') franchise first reached '''{{wp|South Korea}}''' in 1999, with the first airing of ''[[EP001|Pikachu, I Choose You!]]'' on the {{wp|Seoul Broadcasting System}}. None of the [[Generation I|first generation]] Pokémon games were released in South Korea, so it was not until the release of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} in 2002 that Pokémon games were released in South Korean stores.

==History==
Due to the rocky history between {{wp|Japan–Korea relations|Japan and (South) Korea}}, Japanese cultural imports—such as manga, anime, video games, music and movies—were banned by the South Korean government after Korean Independence at the end of {{wp|World War II}}. This ban would be in effect throughout most of the 80s and 90s, particularly when video game consoles began to grow in popularity in Japan and the West. Many Korean companies would find ways around the ban, such as licensing ''American'' versions of Japanese consoles; Hyundai, for example, licensed the American {{wp|Nintendo Entertainment System}} (instead of the Japanese Famicom) and released it as the 현대 컴보이 ''Hyundai Comboy''. For other things, however, there was no way around the ban, and Pokémon was of no exception; almost all Pokémon-related media of its time would never officially make its way into South Korea. This included all of the [[Generation I|first generation]] games; if anything Pokémon-related appeared in Korea, it was either a bootleg, a rip-off or an illegal version.

[[File:PocketMonstersGumEun.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Cover of Pocket Monsters Geum·Eun]] Eventually, South Korean and Japanese relations had warmed up to the point where the South Korean government's ban on Japanese cultural imports was partially lifted in October 1998<ref>[http://www.jei.org/Restricted/JEIR00/0026w3.html SOUTH KOREA EASES BAN ON JAPANESE CULTURE]</ref>. This in turn finally allowed for the release of some Pokémon titles into South Korea. In particular, the Pokémon anime first appeared on Korean television on July 1999, while the Pokémon manga series, [[Pokémon Adventures]] (포켓몬스터 스페셜 ''Pocket Monsters Special''), would hit bookshelves on August 1999. The first Korean-language main series game, however, would be {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} (포켓몬스터 금·은 ''Pocket Monsters Geum·Eun''), which saw a release in April 2002 by 대원씨아이 ''Daewon C.I.''; its delay may have been due to the difficulty of including the Korean language writing system in it. On the other hand, neither {{game|Crystal}} nor the [[Generation III|third generation]] games would see a localized release in South Korea, potentially for the same difficulties involved in translation. There may have also been uncertainty on how to play those games, as Hyundai would not license a version of either the Game Boy Color or Game Boy Advance for release in Korea. That said, Daewon C.I. would import the Japanese version of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} in South Korea under the title 포켓몬스터 루비·사파이어 ''Pocket Monsters Ruby·Sapphire''; while the back cover and a short game manual were translated in Korean, the rest of the game remained in Japanese<ref>[http://bbs1.ruliweb.daum.net/gaia/do/ruliweb/family/995/read?bbsId=G001&articleId=7738840&itemId=81921 포켓몬과 함께하는 추억여행(4)-혼란기(2004-2006)]</ref>.

In January 2004, the South Korean government completely lifted its ban on Japanese cultural imports<ref>[http://articles.latimes.com/2003/dec/28/world/fg-japanculture28 South Korea Makes Way for Anime]</ref>, allowing Nintendo to officially operate in South Korea as 한국닌텐도(주) ''Nintendo of Korea, Inc.'' starting on July 2006<ref>[http://www.joystiq.com/2006/07/03/nintendo-of-korea-opens-july-7th/ Nintendo of Korea opens July 7th]</ref>. 포켓몬코리아 ''Pokémon Korea, Inc.'' would begin its operations a month later<ref>[http://www.pokemon.co.jp/corporate/en/history/ The Pokémon Company History]</ref>. This news didn't prevent Daewon C.I. from importing {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} as 포켓몬스터 다이아몬드·펄 (''Pocket Monsters Diamond·Pearl'') in 2006, just as they did with {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} (that is, in Japanese with Korean covers)<ref>[http://bbs1.ruliweb.daum.net/gaia/do/ruliweb/family/995/read?bbsId=G001&articleId=7738840&itemId=81921 포켓몬과 함께하는 추억여행(4)-혼란기(2004-2006)]</ref>. Daewon C.I.'s release was followed by the January 2007 release of the [[Nintendo DS Lite]], which was the first Korean-language console officially released by the new Nintendo of Korea. Then in February 2008, {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} (포켓몬스터 DP 디아루가·펄기아 ''Pocket Monsters DP Dialga·Palkia'') was released, being the first first-party Korean-language game released. However, it would not be until the release of {{game|Black and White|s}} (포켓몬스터 블랙·화이트 ''Pocket Monsters Black·White'') in 2010 that Korean games would be completely compatible with other region carts (as [[Generation IV]] games from other regions lack Korean characters).

[[File:Platinum KO boxart.png|thumb|right|200px|Cover of Pokémon Giratina Pt version]] Since its official release, Pokémon has enjoyed considerable success in South Korea. Releases in Korea have been able to keep pace with Japan and the rest of the world; Korean-language editions of [[Pokémon Adventures]] volumes are generally released in Korea before English-editions in North America, new TCG sets are released on par with international releases, and the Korean release of [[Pokémon X and Y]] (포켓몬스터 X・Y ''Pocket Monsters X·Y'') was part of the "Worldwide Release", with Korean being a playable option in all regions. Furthermore, 이현정 ''[[Lee HyunJung|Lee Hyun-jung]]'' is a Korean employee of [[Game Freak]] who designed {{p|Tepig}}, {{p|Pignite}} and {{p|Emboar}}, as well as illustrated a number of cards for the Pokémon TCG. Finally in 2014, the [[2014_World_Championships#Masters_Division_2|Video Game Championship, Masters Division]] winner was '''박세준''' ''Park Se-jun'', the first Korean winner of a Pokémon Worlds event.

==Similarities to foreign versions==
The Pokémon franchise in South Korea is a mix of those released in Japan and North America, and is also uniquely Korean.

[[File:HeartGoldKorean.png|thumb|200px|right|Korean logo for Pokémon HeartGold]]
[[File:Pokémon White KO logo.png|thumb|200px|right|Korean logo for the Pokémon White]]
[[File:Pokémon Sun Version logo KO.png|thumb|200px|right|Korean logo for the Pokémon Sun]]Currently, the Korean franchise tends to mirror that of Japan, in the same way the European franchise mirrors that of North America. Some Korean Pokémon names and NPCs are translations or transliterations of their Japanese names; {{p|Sylveon}}'s Korean name 님피아 ''Nimpia'' is based on the Japanese ニンフィア ''Nymphia'' rather than its Western name. Furthermore, event Pokémon distributions in Korea tend to follow similar events in Japan rather than those in Europe and the States; the Japanese [[List of local Japanese event Pokémon distributions in Generation V#Year of the Dragon Eggs|Year of the Dragon]] event was also [[List of Wi-Fi Korean event Pokémon distributions in Generation V#Year of the Dragon Pokémon|available in Korea]], but was never released in the West. Finally, like the Japanese versions, the "포켓몬스터" logo used on every game changes with each generation, instead of uses the same "International Pokémon" logo used in the West.

Other times, it mirrors North America; for example, both the front and back card design for the Pokémon TCG [[File:Korean Pokemon TCG Logo.png|thumb|right|Korean logo for the Pokémon TCG; it is similar to the North American logo]] in Korea is based on the North American version of the game. Also, when Ruby & Sapphire was released, the Korean version (as depicted in [[Pokémon Adventures]]) tended to use English names for Pokémon. For example, {{p|Taillow}} and {{p|Swellow}}'s Korean names are transliterated from English (테일로 ''Teillo'' and 스왈로 ''Seuwallo'', respectively), as was {{p|Delcatty}} (델케티 ''Delketi'').

Most of the time, however, Pokémon in South Korea has a unique Korean look and feel. Many Pokémon have names unique to Korea, like {{p|Kecleon}} (켈리몬 ''Kellimon''), {{p|Leavanny}} (모아머 ''Moameo''), and {{p|Helioptile}} (목도리키텔 ''Mokdorikitel''), while many of the main characters in the Pokémon franchise are given specifically Korean names: [[Ash Ketchum]] is 한지우 ''Han Ji-u'', [[Jessie]] and [[James]] are 로사 ''Rosa'' and 로이 ''Roy'', respectively, and [[Lance]] is 목호 ''Mokho''.

For more information on these translated names, see [[list of Korean Pokémon names]].

==Pokémon video games==
[[File:PokemonXY-KoreanBox.png|thumb|right|200px|Cover of Pocket Monsters X·Y]]
Due to the South Korean government's ban on Japanese cultural items, none of the [[Generation I|first generation]] games saw an official release in Korea. Once the ban was slightly lifted in 1998, a Korean-language version of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} (포켓몬스터 금·은 ''Pocket Monsters Geum·Eun'') would be released in 2002. Unlike previous localizations of Pokémon Gold and Silver, these versions are not playable on the original [[Game Boy]] at all, and display an incompatibility message if inserted into an original Game Boy, like {{game|Crystal}}. <ref>[http://mgaver.tistory.com/122 Hangeru Team (Korean Pokémon blog)]</ref> For unknown reasons, Pokémon Crystal was never released in the Korean language, although it may be of note that the Game Boy Color's lifespan overseas was almost finished. Likewise, none of the [[Generation III|third generation]] would see a South Korean release either.

Since February 2008, all of the [[Generation IV|fourth generation]] main series games have been released in South Korea. Several of the [[Spin-off Pokémon games|spin-off]] Pokémon games have been released in South Korea as well. The [[Generation V|fifth generation]] games would see a release in 2011, and [[Pokémon X and Y]] were released in Korea at the same time as the rest of the world.

==={{pkmn2|Event}}s===
[[File:KoreanPGL.png|thumb|right|200px|Korean Pokémon Global Link]]Local events have been occurring often in South Korea since the release of {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}. The events are usually announced on the Korean Pokémon website. With the release of {{game|Black and White|s}}, there has been both an official Korean version of the [[Pokémon Global Link]] as well as various Wi-Fi competitions, both International and Local (Korean).

==Pokémon anime==
[[File:CartoonNetwork.png|thumb|right|100px|Cartoon Network logo]]
The Korean dub of the Pokémon anime was first aired in July 1999, and is mainly based on the original Japanese version. Most characters are renamed in the dub; for example, [[Ash Ketchum]] is 한지우 ''Han Ji-u'', [[Misty (anime)|Misty]] is 최이슬 ''Choi I-seul'' and [[Brock (anime)|Brock]] is 웅 ''Ung''.

[[File:Tooniverse logo.png|thumb|left|150px|Tooniverse logo]]
In South Korea, the Pokémon anime had aired on '''{{wp|Seoul Broadcasting System}}''' since the series' debut. Currently, episodes of the anime are aired on ''Tooniverse'', ''CHAMP TV'', Animax, Cartoon Network, ANIONE, and Jei TV.

Special episodes, such as ''[[SS019|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters out of the Gate]]'' and ''[[SS020|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time & Darkness]]'', have been dubbed as well.

Unlike the other dubs, the Korean dub has banned 20 episodes so far, including the ones banned in Japan. These banned episodes usually included overt references to Japan and Japanese culture, such as ''[[EP004|Challenge of the Samurai]]'' and ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]]''. However, most of these episodes were from the {{series|original}}, with the last unaired episodes (not counting clip shows like [[AG120]] and [[DP120]] or episodes banned in Japan) being from {{series|Advanced Generation}}: [[AG055]] and [[AG056]]. However, that may have been an oversight, as many of the unaired episodes were released on DVD.

===Music===
[[File:Pocket Monsters AG New and Best CD cover.png|thumb|200px|right|Cover artwork for the CD [[Pocket Monsters AG (New & Best)]]]]
{{incomplete|section|Lacking more information in reference to the music}}
{{main|List of Korean opening themes}}
{{main|List of Korean ending themes}}

Much like the English dub, the Korean dub of the [[Pokémon anime]] features different openings and endings from that in Japanese. However, the songs are directly based on their respective Japanese counterparts, using similar lyrics, style and beat along with sharing the same running time (1 minute and 30 seconds) and debuting episodes.

Several music CDs have been released in South Korea including [[Pocket Monsters OST (1st album)]] in 2000, and [[Pocket Monsters AG (New & Best)]] in 2003.

===Cast and crew===

* '''김현지''' ''Kim Hyeon-ji'' for the redubbed movies [[M06]]-[[M09]].

유리카 ''Yurika'' ({{an|Bonnie}}) is voiced by '''조경이''' ''Jo Gyung-i''

==Pokémon Trading Card Game==
[[File:Korean-PokemonCard-ADV.jpg|thumb|right|100px|Korean pack of Pokémon ADV]] The Pokémon Trading Card Game (포켓몬 카드 게임 ''Pokémon Card Game'') was initially released in South Korea in 2000 by [[Wizards of the Coast]], starting with [[Base Set]]. A Korean Pikachu was included in two separate [[World Collection (TCG)|Pikachu World Collection]] promo sets. When Nintendo took over the game in 2003, they continued to release new sets until {{TCG|EX Power Keepers}}. With the release of the [[Diamond & Pearl (TCG)|Diamond and Pearl]] sets, the Korean-language cards were released again, starting with 모험의 시작 ''{{KTCG|Start of an Adventure}}''; however Korean sets at this time were a unique combination of existing cards, with none of the sets themselves corresponding to existing sets. It wouldn't be until the release of the [[Black & White (TCG)|Black and White]] sets in Japan that Korean sets would follow a format that is on par with Japan and North American releases.

Currently, the distributor is Pokémon Korea, Inc. Unlike the North American sets, the {{TCG|booster pack}}s are called Extension Packs, the {{TCG|Theme Deck}}s are called Random Decks, and the promotional pack is called a Special Set.

The current Korean version of the Pokémon TCG is a mix between the English card design and the Japanese set format. In particular, the front and back of the card is exactly the same as the English version, albeit in Korean; this includes the flat yellow borders, copyright info in the lower-lefthand corner of the card (which is instead the location of the "1st Edition" symbol on Japanese cards), and the card backs used on English cards since the original Base Set release. However, the set logo, set names, rarity icons, and card numbers for Korean cards are the same as the Japanese version: for example, Korean cards use the same purple "XY7" symbol and name "Bandit Ring" as the Japanese cards, instead of that used for the English release of {{TCG|Ancient Origins}}. Korean Mega Pokémon cards also depict the English names of their attack instead of the Japanese names seen on English cards. This combination of English and Japanese formats might be due to both a desire to retain continuity with the original Wizards of the Coast cards released in Korean (as seen on the Korean Pikachu card included in both [[World Collection (TCG)|Pikachu World Collection]] release), but also due to the closer influence of the main ''The Pokémon Company'' in Japan on ''Pokémon Korea, Inc.'', as opposed to ''The Pokémon Company International'', which runs the International releases of the TCG.

''Pokémon Korea, Inc.'', however, run their own events, including the 포켓몬스터 코리안리그 ''Pokémon Korea League''<ref>[http://pokemonkorea.co.kr/?inc=korea-main 포켓몬스터 코리안리그]</ref>. They all culminate to an eventual appearance of Korean players at the official Pokémon [[World Championships]] event.

==Pokémon manga==
[[File:Pokémon Adventures KO volume 1.png|thumb|190px|Cover of volume 1 Pokémon Adventures]]
[[Pokémon Adventures]] (포켓몬스터 스페셜 ''Pocket Monsters Special'') has been published in South Korea by 대원씨아이 ''{{wp|Daewon C.I.}}'' since August 1999. Since then, every volume that has been released in Japan has been released in Korean, the most recent being [[Pokémon Adventures volume 51|Volume 51]], which was released on August 25, 2015. No major changes have been made between the original Japanese story and the Korean version; however at least the first 21 volumes are still released in a flipped format (mirrored from the original Japanese for Korean audiences), but have since been released unflipped (like the original Japanese version) by Volume 30.

[[Magical Pokémon Journey]] has been translated into Korean as well.

The [[Pokémon]] franchise first reached the '''{{wp|United Kingdom|United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland}}''' in 1999 with the release of [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions]] and the airing of the {{pkmn|anime}}.

==Pokémon games==
All Pokémon games that have been released in {{pmin|the United States}} have also been released in the United Kingdom except [[Hey You, Pikachu!]]. Additionally, English language versions of [[Pokémon Tetris]] and [[Learn with Pokémon: Typing Adventure]] have been released in the United Kingdom, despite the title never being released in North America. The United Kingdom release dates tend to be some time after the American release dates, with the exception of {{g|Dash}}, [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]], and {{game|Black and White|s}}, which were released in the United Kingdom before the United States.

Games that are released in the United Kingdom are inconsistent with {{wp|American and British English spelling differences|British English spelling}}. For example, spelling variations such as ''color'' and ''center'' are not changed to ''colour'' and ''centre'' for the UK releases. This is due to most games using a single English translation as localised by [[The Pokémon Company International]] in the United States.

===Event Pokémon===
[[Event Pokémon]] have been released in the United Kingdom sporadically. An event in 2005 known as "The Hunt for Deoxys" was held at Vue cinemas for two days each across the country, where players of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} and {{game|Emerald}} were able to download the {{DL|Event item|AuroraTicket}}. The recent introduction of Wi-Fi events has allowed UK players access to many previously unavailable event Pokémon. Prior to this, very few event Pokémon were made available to UK players, and when events at malls and other stores were held, many parts of the country were overlooked. This changed in [[Generation V]], where in-store events became much more wide-spread across the country.

==Pokémon anime==
[[File:Sky1.png|thumb|150px|left|Sky1's current logo, introduced in 2008]]
===Sky1===
The [[original series]] and {{series|Advanced Generation}} aired on {{wp|Sky1}}, a British channel which is owned by {{wp|Sky plc}}. They began airing the anime on the 29 March 1999. It aired episodes on weekdays at 9am. It continued to air every season up to [[S07|Advanced Challenge]] in 2005.

===Sky One Mix===
Sky One Mix was a sister channel to Sky1 that shared many of the latters programming, including the Pokémon anime, which aired on an irregular basis. The channel was later rebranded as simply Sky Mix, and finally Sky2. Like Sky1, the channel has since dropped Pokémon from its line-up.

===ITV1===
[[File:ITV1.png|thumb|150px|ITV1's logo]]
Pokémon also previously aired on '''ITV1''' from 1999 to 2004. ITV1 is a public service network station that broadcasts in Great Britain and Northern Ireland. It is currently owned by {{wp|ITV}}, formerly {{wp|Carlton Communications}} and {{wp|Granada plc}}. ITV is the only company that has broadcast the {{pkmn|anime}} on UK terrestrial television. Although it no longer airs episodes, its sister channel '''CITV''' continues to do so, originally simulcast upon {{wp|ITV4}} until June 2010, when the GMTV2 block on ITV4 was removed.

Before CITV had its own channel, it had a block on ITV1 from 15:30 to 17:15 on weekdays. Pokémon aired regularly in this block starting in 1999, showing episodes from [[S01|The Indigo League]] and [[S02|Adventures in the Orange Islands]].

GMTV is an early-morning programming block on ITV1. Episodes of Pokémon used to air every Saturday beginning at 8:50 and ending by 9:25. It was originally shown in this time slot from September 1999 until April 2003, airing episodes from The Indigo League, Adventures in the Orange Islands and [[S03|The Johto Journeys]].

On [http://pkmn.net/?action=news&page=viewnews&id=410/ June 6, 2004], [[S06|Pokemon Advanced]] aired on Sunday mornings on the GMTV 'Up on the roof' block with shows such as YuGiOh, Totally Spies and The TMNT 2003 series. One episode a week was aired untill [http://pkmn.net/?action=news&page=viewnews&id=442/ Mid-October] when it was cancelled. [[Brave the Wave]] was the last episode to be shown on the whole ITV network until early 2015 when the whole [[Advanced Generation]] series aired on CITV.

{{wp|SM:TV Live}} was a live Saturday morning entertainment show with a 9:25 to 11:30 block which ended in 2003. It would replace the [[Who's That Pokémon?]] segment with small sketches that featured the hosts, {{wp|Ant & Dec}}, having their own "PokéFight". Some later episodes featured the duo performing their own [[Kanto Pokérap]].

ITV1 has, on more than one occasion, skipped episodes or canceled airings mid-series. These are planned as the TV guides published over a week before date of transmission reflect this. This is not uncommon practice as it has also happened to {{wp|ReBoot}}, {{wp|Cardcaptor Sakura|Cardcaptors}}, {{wp|Digimon#Anime meta-series|Digimon}} and {{wp|Yu-Gi-Oh!}}. This is not limited to children's animation, with the initial run of Season 1 of {{wp|Pushing Daisies}} being the most prominent example of a non-children's program.

Pokémon has been cancelled prematurely twice; once during the [[S02|Orange Islands]] saga on CITV and once just after [[S06|Pokémon: Advanced]] started on GMTV. Neither series has been seen on ITV1 since.

===Cartoon Network TOO===
[[File:CartoonNetworkToo-logo.png|thumb|150px|Cartoon Network TOO's logo]]
Cartoon Network TOO (CN Too for short) was a spin-off television channel of {{wp|Cartoon Network UK}}. As its name suggests, it contains programming that aired on both {{wp|Cartoon Network}} and {{wp|Toonami}}.

Formally known as Toonami, the channel was the location of the world premiere of [[Pokémon Chronicles]]. CN TOO and Cartoon Network went on to show the UK premiere of seasons 8, 9 and 10 as well as gradually going through the older seasons starting from season 3. The final new season to premier on the channel was [[S10|Pokémon: Diamond & Pearl]] before the series migrated to Disney XD from [[S11|Pokémon Diamond & Pearl: Battle Dimension]] onward. CN TOO continued to show repeats of older seasons after the migration, until late 2010.

The channel closed down on April 1st 2014.

===CITV===
[[File:CITV.png‎|thumb|150px|CITV's current logo]]
Currently, the anime airs on '''CITV''', a United Kingdom TV digital network station currently owned by {{wp|ITV}}. It shares its name with the former programming block on '''ITV1''', CITV's parent channel. This channel is free to view on almost all UK Digital TV systems. It is also available over the internet as streaming television on their website. The channel is currently the first to air new episodes on UK television.

As its own channel it has shown every dubbed episode of the Pokémon anime from ''[[S09|Pokémon: Battle Frontier]]'' to the first fourteen episodes of the ''[[S14|Pokémon: Black & White]]'' series, as well as simulcasting episodes shown on ITV1. They have also shown all four {{Series|Diamond & Pearl}} {{pkmn|movie}}s, as well as [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time & Darkness]].

In October 2012, it began transmitting episodes of ''[[S15|Pokémon Black & White: Rival Destinies]]'' in late weekend morning programming slots. Beginning May 19, 2013, the channel began airing two back-to-back episodes of [[S16|Pokémon Black & White: Adventures in Unova]] on Sunday mornings. Episodes that are shown on CITV are usually repeated several months later on Disney XD.

On April 5th, 2014, CITV began airing ''[[S17|Pokémon the Series: XY]]''. All four episodes of [[Pokémon Origins]] aired on CITV from May 27, 2014 through May 30, 2014; each consecutive episode will airing at 7:35am.
On April 6th 2015, CITV began airing the second season of Pokémon the series xy [[S18| Kalos quest]] airing one episode a week.
On April 9th 2016, CITV began airing "[[S19|Pokemon the Series XYZ]]" in part of a mini marathon including the Mega evolutions specials, [[M03|Pokémon 3: The Movie - Spell of the Unown: Entei]] and the repeat of "[[M18|Pokémon the Movie: Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]"

Currently, it airs brand new episodes every Saturday at 12pm.

Additionally, ITV use a service on their website known as [https://www.itv.com/itvplayer/ ITV Player], which allows viewers to watch its programming online, including CITV programmes such as Pokémon. A list of their available Pokémon episodes can be found [http://www.itv.com/hub/pokemon/1a6988 here].

===Disney XD===
Previously known as Jetix, Pokémon migrated to the channel from Cartoon Network beginning with [[S11|DP: Battle Dimensions]]. The channel continued to be Pokémon's main cable and satellite station well into its rebranding into Disney XD, before dropping the show after [[S17|Pokémon the Series: XY]]. Both incarnations also aired many of the Pokémon movies during its run, starting from "[[M10|Rise of Darkrai]]", up to "[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]".

===Pokémon movies===
The first three Pokémon movies where released theatrically, accompanied by the same [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] promotions as the US releases. The [[M01|first movie]] was released on April 14, 2000 to coincide with the two week Easter school holidays, the [[M02|second movie]] on December 22, 2000, and the [[M03|third movie]] on April 6, 2001. They where all later released on VHS and DVD, respectively.

Every movie thereafter would be released on an irregular basis. Both the [[M04|fourth]] and [[M05|fifth]] films were released directly to DVD in 2003 and 2005 respectively, while the [[M06|sixth]] movie's DVD release came in 2006, where it was distributed by Paramount Pictures. In 2006, the [[M08|eighth]] and [[M09|ninth]] movies aired on Cartoon Network, but would not make video releases until 2015, when they were {{n|Eighth and ninth Pokémon movies are now available on iTunes|released on iTunes}}. In 2008, the [[M10|tenth]] movie would be released on DVD under the distribution of Network. All movies from the [[M11|eleventh]] onward would be aired on television a reflectively short time after the US, on both CITV and Disney XD. In 2012, seven years after the US release, the [[M07|seventh]] movie finally saw the light of day in the country when it was released on DVD.

Additionally, the special episode ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]'' (marketed as a direct-to-video movie outside of Japan) also saw a UK release on VHS. The DVD version was never released for unknown reasons.

===Streaming services===
{{bulbanews|Pokémon anime to stream on Netflix}}
It was announced that the Pokémon anime would be coming to [[Netflix]], a subscription-based on demand service available in a wide range of countries, including the United Kingdom. Beginning from March 1, 2014, episodes of ''[[S01|Pokémon: Indigo League]]'' and ''[[S14|Pokémon: Black & White]]'' became available, as well as the movies ''[[M14|Pokémon the Movie: Black—Victini and Reshiram and Pokémon the Movie: White—Victini and Zekrom]]''. The Pokémon anime is also available on [[Amazon Video]].

==Pokémon manga==
[[Pokémon manga]] licensed and translated into English is distributed in the United Kingdom by [[VIZ Media]], including [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!]] and the popular [[Pokémon Adventures]] series.

==Pokémon Trading Card Game==
The [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]], although declining in popularity, is still being sold throughout the UK.

When first released, the game was very popular among UK children. Like in many other countries, the TCG was eventually banned in most schools, because of "classroom distraction". Conflict between students regarding Trading Cards also resulted in the cards being banned from some schools. Its popularity faded out as it was replaced by other popular crazes such as {{wp|Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game|Yu-Gi-Oh! cards}}.

The United Kingdom receives some of the same [[Pokémon merchandise]] that is available in {{pmin|the United States}}, such as plush toys which have been released in major department chains, though merchandise given away in fast food restaurants has become non-existent, as the [[Pokémon movie]]s are no longer shown at cinemas. Some collectibles, such as the [[Pokémon Advanced Action Cards]], were sold in the UK and Europe but not in North America. Despite Pokémon's decline in popularity, merchandise can be found in UK stores, such as {{wp|Game (retailer)|GAME}} and {{wp|W H Smith}}.

A [[Pokémon Daily Express CD-ROM|promotional CD-ROM]] was released in the UK newspaper Daily Express in 2001. When played in a CD player, it would play a sample of the song {{so|Gotta Catch 'Em All}} by 50.Grind. When played in a computer, additional features could be accessed, such as desktop wallpapers, the music video to Gotta Catch 'Em All, and other content.

A [[Pokémon Official Magazine]] was started up in 2004 in the United Kingdom. It was intended to have a quarterly release schedule, but it was cancelled after its second issue due to low sales. In February 2013, it was announced by Future Publishing that the Pokémon Official Magazine would be returning to the UK, with a publishing schedule of 13 issues per year. However, this was also soon cancelled after publishing 13 issues. A third Pokémon Official Magazine started on 29 March 2017. [[Pocket World]] magazine was also published in the United Kingdom, although it does not exclusively cover Pokémon, being made up of several other franchises that involve 'cartoon brands staring monsters' (such as {{wp|Moshi Monsters}}, {{wp|Bakugan}} and {{wp|Redakai}}).

A UK Pokémon fan, [[Lisa Courtney]], holds the {{wp|Guiness World Record}} for having the largest Pokémon memorabilia.<ref>The largest collection of Pokémon memorabilia - Guinness World Records (http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/largest-collection-of-pokemon-memorabilia)</ref>


==Events==
{{bulbanews/3|Tenth anniversary event tours United Kingdom|Pokémon Adventure Tour UK events announced|Pokémon Animation Studio attraction to open in London}}
An eight-city tour was held in the United Kingdom in commemoration of the [[Pokémon 10th Anniversary]]. {{DL|List of English event Pokémon distributions in Generation III|Top 10 Distribution Pokémon|ten event Pokémon}} were distributed at the events — {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Pikachu}}, {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Suicune}}, {{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}}, {{p|Latias}} and {{p|Latios}}. These ten Pokémon were chosen by Nintendo of Europe following a popularity poll earlier in the year. Other activities at the events included [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] and [[Pokémon Trading Figure Game]] stations and {{pkmn|anime}} episode screenings.

The [[Pokémon]] franchise first reached the '''{{wp|United States|United States of America}}''' in 1998 with the release of [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions]] and the airing of the {{pkmn|anime}}. Most English translations of Pokémon media are based in the United States and then further distributed in other English-speaking countries of the world.

==Pokémon video games==
Most Pokémon video games released in Japan are translated into English for the United States, although there are exceptions such as [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon (WiiWare)|the WiiWare Mystery Dungeon games]]. All English-language games are exported to {{pmin|Canada}}, {{pmin|the United Kingdom}}, {{pmin|Australia}} and other countries (including those that do not have their own translation of the games, such as {{pmin|Latin America}} and {{pmin|Brazil}}). Event Pokémon are regularly released in the United States as well.

==Pokémon anime==
The [[Pokémon anime]] debuted in the United States on September 7, 1998 with the sneak preview debut of ''[[EP015|Battle Aboard the St. Anne]]'', helping to launch Pokémon into a nationwide phenomenon that lasted until the early 2000s. All English-language dubs of the Pokémon anime were produced in the United States, first by [[4Kids Entertainment]] and later by [[The Pokémon Company International]]{{tt|*|Pokémon USA prior to 2009}}.

While the [[Pokémon movie]]s are regularly released theatrically in Japan, [[M01|only]] [[M02|the]] [[M03|first]] [[M04|five]] [[M05|movies]], the [[M13|13th movie]], the Zekrom variant of the [[M14|14th movie]], and the [[M20|20th movie]] have seen theatrical releases in the US; all other movies have premiered on television (usually on Cartoon Network) and released straight to video or DVD.

===Kids' WB===
[[File:Kids WB logo.png|thumb|200px|right|Kids' WB logo used from 1997-2008. The design of the logo itself varied slightly throughout the years.]]
{{wp|Kids' WB}} is a former programming block that was broadcast on {{wp|The WB}} television network, and later, as a result of a merge between the WB and {{wp|UPN}}, on {{wp|The CW}}. The initial run of the block was from 1995-2008, and it aired (at various stages) both before and after school, and also on Saturday mornings. Kids' WB, in its original form, shut down on May 17, 2008. Prior to its closure, it was relaunched as an online {{wp|video on demand}} service.

Kids' WB aired episodes from the original [[4Kids Entertainment]] dub of the [[Pokémon anime]] from 1999 until 2006. The first episode aired was ''[[EP044|The Problem with Paras]]'', on February 13, 1999. The network aired the remainder of the first season, and every other non-banned episode through [[S08|season eight]]. Warner Bros. also released the first three [[Pokémon movie]]s under the Kids' WB name.

On January 22, 2005, Kids' WB was the first to air the English version of the seventh movie, [[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]. It was also first to air the 10th anniversary Pokémon special, ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'', on April 29, 2006, even before it aired in Japan. This special was the first to be dubbed by [[The Pokémon Company International]] (then known as Pokémon USA), as well as being the only time Kids' WB aired the new dub by Pokémon USA. Along with the special, a promotional sweepstakes was run by Kids' WB to win tenth anniversary related merchandise.

In 2006, before any more Pokémon USA episodes could be aired, the network announced that all non-{{wp|Warner Bros.}} related shows would be dropped from the lineup. This meant that ''Pokémon'', among other shows, would no longer be aired on Kids' WB. The series would eventually move to Cartoon Network, which is owned by TimeWarner via its' {{wp|Turner Broadcasting}} division, managed by {{wp|Ted Turner}}, on September 8th.

On October 2, 2007, it was announced that the Kids' WB block would end in September the following year. Management stated that this was because of the effects of children's advertising limits and competition from cable TV channels. In an ironic twist, the block was sold to 4Kids, who had previously acquired the {{wp|Fox Kids}} block, rebranding it as Fox Box and then {{wp|4Kids TV}}. {{wp|Fox Broadcasting Company}} ended their relationship with 4Kids in December 2008, and as of 2010, used the old slot to allow affiliates to use for news or {{wp|E/I}} programming, save for two hours called Fox Marketplace, in essence a block of {{wp|Infomercials}}.

The last time Kids' WB aired was, contrary to earlier reports, May 17, 2008. After this date, the block was renamed as {{wp|Toonzai|The CW4Kids}}. Kids' WB was relaunched as an online video on demand service, which was launched on April 28, 2008. ''Pokémon'' is not included on the list of available titles, but episodes are available on demand via the USA [[Pokémon.com]] web portal. Seven years later, Kids' WB was subsequently shut down and was split up into Looney Tunes, Scooby-Doo, and DC Universe websites, effectively retiring the Kids' WB name after almost 20 years.

===Cartoon Network===
[[File:Cartoon Network 2010 Logo.png|thumb|200px|right|Cartoon Network's logo since May 29, 2010]]
Cartoon Network is a cable network owned by {{wp|Time Warner}} that previously carried the [[Pokémon anime]] meta series. The channel was launched on October 1, 1992 after Turner purchased the animation studio {{wp|Hanna-Barbera}} in 1991. They started with ''[[S09|Pokémon: Battle Frontier]]'' on September 8, 2006. They picked up the series after corporate sibling Kids' WB dropped the series in its efforts to focus more on series produced in-house, which had since been taken over by [[4Kids Entertainment]], the former producer of the anime series.
[[File:Cn logo lightbg.png|thumb|200px|left|Cartoon Network's original logo, which is currently used as a trademark]]
Previously, they had aired reruns of episodes from the anime's earlier seasons, such as ''[[S05|Master Quest]]''. Almost every season through ''[[S19|Pokémon the Series: XYZ]]'' has aired on Cartoon Network. They have also aired all ''[[Pokémon Chronicles]]'' episodes during the summer of 2006. Currently, the series does not air on the network. Their sibling network Boomerang aired episodes from the [[original series]], the {{series|Advanced Generation}} and the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}.
{{bulbanews|TPCi not happy about Cartoon Network movie cut}}
Cartoon Network tends to marginalize end credits—replacing the original ending with their own generic credits while running a promo. This is not a very big loss for anime episodes, which have rather unremarkable ending sequences in the dub, unless the credits break away from the current format, such as in ''[[DP022|Borrowing on Bad Faith!]]''. However, by extension, this means that the credits of Pokémon movies aired on the channel, which contain an epilogue, are missed, to the chagrin of viewers. Occasionally, the credits are simply sped up. Also, when the [[M13|thirteenth movie]] first aired on the channel, several scenes were omitted, which [[The Pokémon Company International|TPCi]] did not appreciate.

On their website, Cartoon Network featured [[Cartoon Network online games|several online games]] featuring Pokémon characters.

====Toonami====
[[File:Toonami2007logo.jpg|thumb|200px|right|Toonami's logo from 2007-2008]]
Toonami is an extension of Cartoon Network. It formerly aired [[Pokémon Chronicles]] and, after Kids' WB stopped airing new episodes of the {{pkmn|anime}}, [[S09|Battle Frontier]].

From July 2001 until June 2002, Kids' WB's weekday afternoon editions, which included Pokémon, were branded ''Toonami on Kids' WB'', making this period the first instance of Pokémon on Toonami.

The Toonami block aired for the final time on September 20, 2008. Although the Toonami block itself ended, the block's streaming-video service Toonami Jetstream, which showed episodes from various arcs of Pokémon anime, continued operations until January 30, 2009. After nearly four years of being off the year in the US, Toonami later returned on the air on May 26, 2012, but now on Adult Swim, Cartoon Network's late-night programming block. This was done by popular demand after an April Fools stunt.

====Toonami Jetstream====
[[File:Toonami Jetstream Logo.png|thumb|200px|right|Toonami Jetstream's logo]]
Toonami Jetstream was a {{wp|Streaming media|streaming video}} service run by Cartoon Network and [[VIZ Media]] to provide anime and action cartoons 24 hours a day. The service launched on July 17, 2006. The service remained online even after its parent programming block, Toonami, ended on September 20, 2008. On January 20, 2009, Toonami Jetstream switched all available offerings with "top 10" lists from most of their at-the-time current shows. Toonami Jetstream shut down on January 30, 2009. Cartoon Network Video, Toonami Jetstream's former sister service, became Cartoon Network's lone streaming video service at the time Jetstream shut down. The Pokémon anime did not initially migrate over to Cartoon Network Video, but would do so a few months after Jetstream's shutdown.
{{bulbanews|Toonami Jetstream closes its doors}}
The third season of the [[Pokémon anime]] debuted on the service on October 9, 2006 under the [[S03|Johto Journeys]] banner. The first episode offered on the service was ''[[EP106|The Pokémon Water War]]''. The last episode under this classification, ''[[EP157|The Fortune Hunters]]'', debuted on Jetstream on October 1, 2007.

[[Pokémon Chronicles]] also debuted on Toonami Jetstream on October 9, 2006. The first episode of the side series offered on the service was part 1 of ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]''. The final episode, Pikachu's Winter Vacation: ''[[PK02|Christmas Night]]''/''[[PK03|Kanga Games]]'', debuted on the service on March 5, 2007.

The fourth season debuted on Toonami Jetstream on May 28, 2007 under the [[S04|Johto League Champions]] banner. ''[[EP158|A Goldenrod Opportunity]]'' was the first episode offered under that classification. The last episode under this classification, ''[[EP209|Machoke, Machoke Man!]]'', debuted on Jetstream on May 27, 2008.

The first season debuted on Toonami Jetstream on January 14, 2008 under the [[S01|Pokémon]] banner as part of a special offering involving {{g|Snap}}. ''[[EP055|Pokémon Paparazzi]]'' was the first episode offered under that classification. This classification never saw a regular progression.

The fifth season debuted on Toonami Jetstream on June 16, 2008 under the [[S05|Master Quest]] banner. ''[[EP210|Around the Whirlpool]]'' was the first episode offered under that classification. The last episode under this classification, ''[[EP240|Some Like It Hot]]'', debuted on Jetstream on January 13, 2009. This classification was the only one featured in the Top 10 format prior to the service's shutdown.

The ninth season debuted on Toonami Jetstream on November 17, 2008 under the [[S09|Battle Frontier]] banner. ''[[AG146|Fear Factor Phony]]'' was the first episode offered under that classification. The last episode under this classification, ''[[AG154|Reversing the Charges]]'', debuted on Jetstream on January 13, 2009.

Toonami Jetstream released episodes new to the service every Monday, unless a particular Monday is a United States holiday, in most cases the debut was on a different day (such as the following Tuesday or the preceding Friday). Like other shows on Toonami Jetstream, new Pokémon episodes in currently-running seasons debuted every week and remained available on Toonami Jetstream for six weeks after they debuted on the service.

Toonami Jetstream also offered short previews of ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]]'', and ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'' prior to their television debuts.

To celebrate the release of Pokémon Snap on the Virtual Console, [[Pokémon.com]] have announced that episodes featuring [[Todd Snap]] will be offered for one week later in December. That method was scrapped in favor of traditional weekly progression; his three Johto appearances appeared as part of the normal Johto League Champions progression, with his Kanto appearances appearing on January 14, 2008, January 22, 2008, and January 28, 2008.

The Todd version of [[Todd Snap]]'s Kanto episodes are the ones used on Toonami Jetstream. This appears to go with the {{wp|Retroactive continuity|retcon}} of making Snap his surname when {{g|Snap}} was announced for the Virtual Console.

====Cartoon Network Video====
[[File:Cartoon Network Video Logo.png|thumb|200px|right|Cartoon Network Video's former logo]]
Cartoon Network Video is a {{wp|Streaming media|streaming video}} service run by Cartoon Network to provide animated programs 24 hours a day. The service launched on September 22, 2006. Originally a sister service to {{wp|Toonami Jetstream}}, which had long offered the Pokémon anime, Cartoon Network Video became Cartoon Network's lone streaming video service after Toonami Jetstream shut down on January 30, 2009. The [[Pokémon anime]] debuted on the service on May 15, 2009.

The first classification used for the Pokémon anime on Cartoon Network Video is [[S12|DP: Galactic Battles]], not appearing to follow any specific season unlike when the Pokémon anime ran on Toonami Jetstream. The first episode offered on the service was ''[[DP105|Get Your Rotom Running!]]'' The final episode uploaded with the banner displaying Galactic Battles was ''[[DP157|Gotta Get a Gible!]]'', uploaded on May 17, 2010.

On December 14, 2009, 97 episodes from the first two seasons including the entirety of season two, listed under the names of the first two arcs [[S01|Indigo League]] and [[S02|Adventures in the Orange Islands]], were made available on the service, arranged as subclassifications under the show's banner (which still lists Galactic Battles). Unlike Galactic Battles, the episodes from the first two episodes are divided by season, but under the name of one of the arcs, meaning season two episodes from the Indigo League arc are classified under the Adventures in the Orange Islands classification. This is similar to how the last 11 episodes of the second arc, which are also the first 11 episodes of the third season, were available on Toonami Jetstream under the [[S03|third arc's name]].

On February 1, 2010, a fourth subclassification under the show's banner was added to house season three, listed under the name "[[S03|The Johto Journeys]]"; only one episode was made available that day, ''[[EP106|The Pokémon Water War]]''. However, this addition may have been in error, as both the classification and the episode were removed a few days later. The classification was later re-added two months later with the entire third season included, but the episodes in the classification were not working for many users, and the classification was once again taken down the following month.

On June 5, 2010, the banner depiction for Pokémon on Cartoon Network Video was switched to the new classification of [[S13|DP: Sinnoh League Victors]], carrying over all content that had been classified under the previous arc's name.

Initially, Cartoon Network Video released episodes new to the service every Monday, unless a particular Monday was a United States holiday, in most cases the debut was on a different day (such as the following Tuesday). The newest episodes were currently made available the Monday following their original dub airdates and remain on the service for two weeks. More recently, however, episodes have been uploaded later than previously and remain available for only one week.

After a site revamp in October 2009, Cartoon Network Video uses a dedicated 16:9 widescreen video player. A lot of content originally produced in 16:9 widescreen, including all Pokémon episodes starting with ''[[DP126|Classroom Training]]'', are shown properly on this video player regardless of the aspect ratio an episode showed in on Cartoon Network's standard-definition television feed, but content originally produced in 4:3 fullscreen, such as Pokémon episodes from earlier seasons, are stretched to fill the 16:9 frame in a process similar to {{wp|Stretch-o-Vision}}.

The Todd versions of the episodes [[Todd Snap]] appears in are the ones used on Cartoon Network Video; the same was true when shown on Toonami Jetstream. Additionally, any episode that involves the [[Orange Archipelago]] in any way, shape, or form uses the theme presented from televised airings, meaning {{so|Pokémon World}} is first used with ''[[EP084|The Lost Lapras]]'' on Cartoon Network Video with [[Pokémon Theme]] used for the three episodes prior.

===Boomerang===
[[File:Boomerang 2015.png|thumb|200px|right|Boomerang's current logo adopted since January 19, 2015]]
Boomerang is a cable network owned by {{wp|Time Warner}}, operating as a sister station to Cartoon Network. Boomerang primarily airs contemporary cartoons from Time Warner's archival history such as {{wp|The Flintstones}}, {{wp|The Jetsons}}, Popeye the Sailor Man, and The Yogi Bear Show, as well as older episodes of currently-running series, Pokémon among them. A full list is on {{wp|List of programs broadcast by Boomerang|Wikipedia}}. Boomerang was launched shortly after the introduction of Cartoon Network in 1992. However, it was only a block on the network, and was not spun off into a channel until 2000. During its time as a block, it lasted for only a couple of hours at a time.

[[File:Boomerang logo.png|thumb|200px|left|Boomerang's former logo]]
Boomerang first started airing episodes of the popular Pokémon series when it first aired the {{series|original}} in 2006, and after that in March of 2010. As of October 2012, the channel aired episodes from [[EP001]] to [[DP191]]. Prior to 2017, episode were aired at 6 and 6:30 PM {{wp|Eastern Time Zone|ET}}/{{wp|Pacific Time Zone|PT}} (5 and 5:30 PM {{wp|Central Time Zone (North America)|CT}}) on weekdays.

Boomerang previously aired the [[banned episodes|banned]] episode ''[[Holiday Hi-Jynx]]''.

In January 19, 2015, the U.S. version of Boomerang was be relaunched as part of a global rebranding effort in an effort to original programming for the first time. The relaunched channel continues to emphasize its archival programming but with a greatly increased emphasis on the archive's most popular brands and an explicitly {{wp|family-friendly}} approach, in the hopes that Boomerang could become a “second {{wp|flagship (broadcasting)|flagship}}” on par with the main Cartoon Network channel.

Due to [[#Disney XD|Disney XD]] obtaining airing rights to the Pokémon anime, it no longer airs on Boomerang as of February 2017.

===Toon Disney===
[[File:Toon Disney logo.png|thumb|200px|right|Toon Disney's logo from 2005-2009]]
Toon Disney was an American cable television channel which began broadcasting on April 18, 1998 (the date was chosen to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the launch of its parent channel, {{wp|Disney Channel}}). It was owned by {{wp|The Walt Disney Company}}, who also owned the [[Miramax Films]] film studio during the period of the channel's existence. Its programming was aimed at 2-11 year olds.

Toon Disney had shown the ''Pokémon'' motion pictures distributed in the United States by Miramax: ''[[M04|Celebi: The Voice of the Forest]]'', ''[[M05|Pokémon Heroes: Latios & Latias]]'', ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'', and ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]''. On February 13, 2009, Toon Disney was succeeded by [[#Disney XD|Disney XD]], a channel geared towards boys ages 6-14.

===Disney XD===
[[File:Disney XD Logo.png|thumb|200px|left|Disney XD's logo since 2015]]
Disney XD is a cable network geared towards boys ages 6-14 owned by {{wp|The Walt Disney Company}} that acquired airing rights to the [[Pokémon anime]], beginning with the {{series|Sun & Moon}}. The channel was launched on February 13, 2009, replacing [[#Toon Disney|Toon Disney]]. They began airing the anime with a marathon including ''[[M19|Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel]]'', ''[[SM001|Alola to New Adventure!]]'', and ''[[SM002|The Guardian's Challenge!]]'' on December 5, 2016.

New dubbed episodes of ''[[S20|Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]'' can be seen on Saturday mornings at 9:00 AM {{wp|Eastern Time Zone|ET}}/{{wp|Pacific Time Zone|PT}} (8:00 AM {{wp|Central Time Zone (North America)|CT}}). Currently, reruns of the season ''Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon'' air on weekdays. They have also previously aired ''[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]'', ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown]]'', and ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]''. Episodes from the {{series2|original}}, {{series2|Advanced Generation}}, {{series2|Diamond & Pearl}}, {{series|Best Wishes}}, and {{series|XY}} can also be streamed through the Watch Disney XD app or website.

Unlike Cartoon Network, Disney XD carries the {{pmin|Latin America}}n Spanish dub through the {{wp|second audio program}} (SAP) channel.

===Other video streaming===
{{bulbanews/2|Pokémon anime now available on Hulu|Pokémon anime to stream on Netflix}}
The Pokémon anime is available on [[Amazon Video]], [[Google Play]], [[Hulu]] and [[iTunes]], which are video streaming sites available in the United States. Starting on October 14, 2016, episodes of the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} were made available on XFINITY On Demand in both English and Spanish.<ref>http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/pokemon-comes-to-xfinity-on-demand/</ref>

Additionally, it was announced by [[Netflix]] that the Pokémon anime would be available through their paid on-demand service beginning from March 1, 2014. Currently, the [[S01|first]], [[S17|seventeenth]], and [[S18|eighteenth]] seasons, along with [[M17|the seventeenth movie]] and [[M18|the eighteenth movie]], are available for streaming.

==Pokémon manga==
[[VIZ Media]], based out of {{wp|San Francisco}}, {{wp|California}}, has licensed and translated several [[Pokémon manga]] titles in the United States, including [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!]], movie manga adaptations, and the popular [[Pokémon Adventures]] series.

==Pokémon Trading Card Game==
An English-language translation of the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] has been sold in the United States since the release of [[Base Set (TCG)|Base Set]] in 1999, and continues to this day. Most English sets do not correspond exactly to the Japanese sets they are translated from; they often incorporate additional cards from Japanese promotions and theme decks. English-language cards are the most widely distributed worldwide; as with the games, they are exported to other English-speaking countries, but are also often sold alongside localized translations and in countries where no local translation exists. Currently, only English-language cards are tournament legal in the United States.

==Pokémon merchandise==
Pokémon merchandising has been handled by various distributors in the United States. When the franchise debuted, merchandising was handled by [[Hasbro]]. Originally, toys and merchandise were simply imported from Japan, but later Hasbro created their own toys and games for distribution in the US. In 2004, rights passed to [[Jakks Pacific]], which produced their own merchandise as well. As of January 2013, merchandise has been handled by [[Takara Tomy]] and largely imported from Japan. Unlike other Pokémon merchandise in the US, Tomy's merchandise has multilingual packaging shared with Europe that features seven Western languages (English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese and Dutch), including localized Pokémon and character names where applicable.

The United States is home to the only North American {{OBP|Pokémon Center|store}} stores, with one store operating in in {{wp|New York City}}, {{wp|New York}} (now {{DL|Pokémon Center (store)|New York (Nintendo New York)|Nintendo New York}}) and two mall kiosks in {{wp|Washington (state)|Washington state}}. The Pokémon Center online store also currently only ships to the United States.


==Events==
{{bulbanews/4|Pokémon Rocks America 2005 dates and locations revealed|Americans to get chance to obtain Celebi|Pokémon anniversary party to be held in New York|U.S. Black and White promotional tour announced}}
Several promotional events have been held in the United States for Pokémon video games and other media. Many of these events included playable game demos, distribution of [[event Pokémon]], and other incentives such as promotional cards from the {{pkmn|Trading Card Game}}.

Promotional tours include the [[Pokémon 2000 Stadium Tour]], the [[Pokémon Gold and Silver Adventure Tour]], [[Pokémon Rocks America]], [[Pokémon 10th Anniversary Journey Across America]], and the [[Pokémon Black and White Sampling Tour]].

The [[World Championships]] have been held by [[Play! Pokémon]] (formerly Pokémon Organized Play) annually in the United States since 2004. So far, only one World Championship has been held outside of the United States, which was the [[2013 World Championships]] in Vancouver, British Columbia, {{pmin|Canada}}.

The '''Player Search System''' (Japanese: '''プレイヤーサーチシステム''' ''Player Search System''), or '''PSS''' (Japanese: '''ＰＳＳ''' ''PSS'') for short, is a feature that first appears in [[Pokémon X and Y]] and is the [[Generation VI]] version of the [[C-Gear]]. It has many different functions, including the [[Global Trade System|GTS]], Wonder Trade, O-Powers, and more. In {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the PSS is accessible via the PlayNav app of the [[PokéNav Plus]].

The main window of the PSS divides other players into three categories: Friends, Acquaintances, and Passersby, each of which can have a maximum of 100 players. A Passerby will automatically become an Acquaintance if a Battle or Trade (including [[Wonder Trade]]s) is made with him/her. After trading or battling with an Acquaintance, a prompt to add them to the Friends group will appear.

Players in the Friends group are registered as friends in the [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]]'s friend list, and vice versa. In Pokémon X or Y, when a player is registered as a Friend, their Safari can be accessed (even if they do not have a copy of one of the games). In {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, a [[Friend Code]] is located at the top of the Friend's profile.

Acquaintances may be removed by tapping the player's icon and then tapping the button in the lower-left corner of the screen; dropped Acquaintances will become Passersby. Friends may only be removed by removing the player from the 3DS's friend list.

==Global Trade Station==
{{main|Global Trade System}}
In Generation VI, the Global Trade Station can now be accessed in many more places compared to only [[Pokémon Center]]s in [[Generation V]] or the [[Global Terminal]]/Global Trade Station building in [[Generation IV]]. Unlike in previous generations, the player can now ask for Pokémon that have not yet been registered in the player's [[Pokédex]].

==Wonder Trade==
{{main|Wonder Trade}}
Wonder Trade allows players to [[trade]] Pokémon for another one without knowing what he or she is going to get. {{pkmn|Egg}}s cannot be traded in Wonder Trade, nor can Pokémon with a Classic or Premier [[Ribbon]] (usually present on [[event Pokémon]]).

==O-Powers==
{{main|O-Power}}
O-Powers are temporary bonus effects that are used from the Player Search System. They are very similar to {{DL|Entralink|Pass Powers}}.

==Shout Outs==

Shout Outs are messages sent to everyone connected to the player's game, whether they are the player's friends or someone who happened to be connected to the internet at the same time as the player. These messages are displayed before a Wonder Trade as the players message.

==Battle Spot==
{{split|{{redlink|Battle Spot}}}}
The Battle Spot is a feature that allows players to use the same functions that the [[Global Battle Union#Random Matchup|Global Battle Union's Random Matchup]] provides in the [[Generation V]] games. It allows players to compete in both Free Battles and in Rating Battles, the latter determining the player's ranking, just as the Global Battle Union does.

It is possible to choose which battle music will play during the battle as long as the song has been heard before. However, in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, [[Wally]]'s theme can't be played and due to being version exclusives, {{p|Ho-Oh}}'s theme is only unlockable in Omega Ruby, while {{p|Lugia}}'s is only unlockable in Alpha Sapphire.
{{sectionstub}}

==Holo Caster==
{{main|Holo Caster}}
The Holo Caster is a Generation VI incarnation of the [[Xtransceiver]], which consists of a {{wp|holography|holographic}} projection instead of a physical screen display. [[NPC]]s will occasionally use this to contact the player during the course of the game.
Unlike its predecessor, the Holo Caster can also be used to broadcast special in-game and real world news announcements directly to the player. This includes updating the player on any recent StreetPass hits, upcoming events and competitions. It will periodically update automatically via StreetPass, or if the player chooses, may also be manually updated using an Internet connection and SpotPass as well.

==Game Sync==
{{main|Game Sync}}
The player can synchronize the save file of the game card to the Pokémon Global Link site, provided the player has created an account. Doing so sends any items obtained from the [[PokéMileage Club]] to the game card and sends any photos, [[Poké Mile]]s, and Medals to the Global Link.

SpotPass

2018-01-13T13:19:14Z

NAOKi:

'''SpotPass''' (Japanese: '''いつの間に通信''' ''Unnoticed Communication'') is a function of the [[Nintendo 3DS]] family.

The 3DS's SpotPass function allows a Nintendo 3DS system that is connected to the Internet to receive SpotPass data from the Internet. This requires that the system be turned on, and have SpotPass functionality enabled. If a Nintendo 3DS system has received SpotPass data for any game, the notification {{wp|LED}} will be blue. If the system is in sleep mode, the notification LED will remain blue until the system is taken out of sleep mode (when it will go out completely); if the system is not in sleep mode, the notification LED will blink blue a few times, before returning to being off.

Receiving notifications and sleep mode downloads of software are done via SpotPass.

SpotPass data is saved in the {{wp|SD card}} inserted in the Nintendo 3DS.

==Pokémon games==
===Pokémon X and Y and Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire===
[[Pokémon X and Y|Pokémon X, Y]], [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]] receive SpotPass data such as notifications when connected to the Internet.

====Pokémon X and Y====
The [[Holo Caster]], accessed in the [[Player Search System|PSS]], can be used to receive special news bulletins about events, tournaments, and receive special distributions from participating stores and event locations.

====Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire====
The PSS section of the [[PokeNav Plus|PlayNav]] continues to receive SpotPass updates without the Holo Caster.

===Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U===
[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]] uses SpotPass to receive notifications about update data and new DLCs, such as fighters and outfits.

===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity===
[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity]] receives notifications about new DLCs through SpotPass.

“Pelipper Island” allows the player to choose from exclusive areas as well as any dungeon previously explored. Pokémon can be obtained using the Connection Orb that wouldn’t be able to found otherwise in the story mode by completing certain objectives.

===Pokémon Battle Trozei===
{{incomplete|section}}

===Pokémon Rumble World===
In [[Pokémon Rumble World]], Mii avatars of each person on the player's friend list will visit the player if the system is connected to the Internet. The player can also obtain 10 free Poké Diamonds when each SpotPass hit milestone is reached: 1, 20, 100, and 999 hits, along with 1 free Diamond for every 5 visitors that arrive in any manner. In addition, a Poké Diamond or some Ⓟ may be dropped by the Mii when it is encountered in a stage, and 10 Ⓟ (with no Wealthy Tree) is dropped by any Mii following the player when the stage is cleared, but only when the Mii is on-screen.

===Pokédex 3D===
In [[Pokédex 3D]], Pokémon are distributed at random, three per day to each player while the 3DS is in sleep mode or while playing certain games. Scanning an [[AR Marker]] increases the likelihood of a Pokémon appearing.

===Pokémon Shuffle===
In [[Pokémon Shuffle]], SpotPass functionality allows for news on updates to be sent automatically to the 3DS.

==Trivia==
* [[Pokémon Shuffle]], [[Pokémon Rumble World]], and the [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire Special Demo Version]] have been distributed via SpotPass in the PAL region.{{fact}}

Dual-slot mode

2018-01-12T08:50:18Z

NAOKi:

'''Dual-slot mode''' (Japanese: '''ダブルスロット''' ''Double-Slot'') is a method of communication between a [[Nintendo DS]] game card and a [[Game Boy Advance]] game cartridge by inserting both into the same Nintendo DS system. However, due to the removal of the GBA slot, dual-slot mode is not available if the player is using a system from the [[Nintendo DSi]] family or [[Nintendo 3DS]] family.

==In the core series games==
===Pal Park===
{{main|Pal Park}}
In {{game5|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Pal Park allows the player to transfer Pokémon from {{game5|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, using dual-slot mode for communication.

The Pokémon are sent from the [[Generation III]] game to the [[Generation IV]] game, and cannot be sent back.

===Dongle method===
In {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, the dongle method changes the [[wild Pokémon]] that appear based on the game in the Game Boy Advance slot, via dual-slot mode. This method is compatible with any of the [[Generation III]] [[core series]] games: {{game5|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald|FireRed|LeafGreen}}.

The name "dongle method" is an unofficial name that comes from the fact that this method uses the Game Boy Advance game as a {{wp|dongle}} for the Nintendo DS game.

The wild Pokémon that can appear this way are mostly not in the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. They are usually [[game-exclusive Pokémon]] to one of the [[Generation III]] games.

If the player has the ability to use [[Pal Park]], the dongle method allows specific wild Pokémon to appear depending on the GBA game with an 8% chance (4% each if there are two different Pokémon that can appear this way due to the same game). If the player cannot use Pal Park, the dongle method has no effect.

In order for these changes to wild encounters to take effect, the GBA game must already be in the GBA slot when the player opens the title screen. Wild encounters will not change if a GBA game is inserted or removed from the Nintendo DS system after this time.

Unlike [[Pal Park]], the language of the GBA game will not prevent it from affecting wild encounters. For example, a Japanese Pokémon FireRed can allow wild Elekid to appear in the [[Valley Windworks]] in an English Pokémon Diamond, while an English Pokémon Emerald can allow wild Teddiursa to appear on {{rt|211|Sinnoh}} in a Japanese Pokémon Platinum.

[[Pokémon Dream Radar]] has a similar feature that allows players to catch a Generation IV [[game mascot]] with its [[Hidden Ability]] in extensions unlocked by putting the Game Card of the corresponding game into the game card slot of the Nintendo 3DS system.

===Event distributions===
[[File:Distribution cartridge Slot 2.jpg|thumb|{{DL|List of local Japanese event Pokémon distributions in Generation IV|10th Movie Deoxys}} distribution Slot 2 cartridge]]
In the Generation IV core series games, some event distributions were done using a Slot 2 cartridge, which was inserted into the GBA slot to send data to the DS game card.

[[File:Dual-slot mode Dash JP.png|thumb|left|200px|Japanese/Korean version cup display]]
[[File:Dual-slot mode Dash ENG.png|thumb|right|200px|American/European version cup display]]
In [[Pokémon Dash]], players can make custom cups based on the [[party]] in a Generation III [[core series]] game inserted in the GBA slot. {{game|Emerald}} sprites are used; {{p|Spinda}} patterns are retained, but {{Shiny}} coloration is not depicted. {{pkmn|Egg}}s in the player's party are ignored.

The Japanese, European, and American versions of Pokémon Dash have no region checks, allowing the player use any language game (although only the first 5 characters of a Pokémon's name will be displayed in the Japanese version of Pokémon Dash). The Korean version only allows Japanese game cartridges to be used.

==In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team==
{{incomplete|section}}
In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team]], dual-slot mode allows the game to communicate with [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team]].

If the player has both games inserted into a compatible system, [[SOS Mail]] can be sent between the games, allowing for the rescue team in one game to save the team in the other cartridge's save file.

In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team, the player can use Receive Team while Red Rescue Team is in the Game Boy Advance slot. If used, the rescue team from Red Rescue Team becomes the boss of the Rescue Team Maze of [[Makuhita Dojo]].

'''Poképédia''' is a {{wp|French language}} online encyclopedia for information on [[Pokémon]]—including information on the games, anime, TCG, as well as fandom and meta. It is the French language member of [[Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis]]. The name Poképédia is a {{wp|portmanteau}} of ''Pokémon'' and ''Encyclopedia''. Poképédia's mascot and logo is {{p|Uxie}}.

==History==
Poképédia was conceived by username Misdre on August 2, 2007 and publicly opened on September 24, 2007 with just over 80 articles and only a few members. It became a member of [[Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis]] on September 28, 2007.

On March 27, 2008, Poképédia reached their 1000th article. Poképédia introduced many projects including Project Pokédex, Anime Project and Project BerryDex.

As of mid-December 2008, Poképédia contained over 1,500 articles and had 341 registered users as of Poképédia's {{fr|Statistiques|Statistics}}. Its Pokémon pages have thorough illustrations of [[generation]]al artwork and sprites (including {{shiny}} Pokémon), and characters' Pokémon in the games and [[Pokémon anime|anime]]. Its main page has a slightly different format than its {{wp|English language}} counterpart, as Poképédia has a column of subjects with illustrated links to portals on the right. Subjects on the left-hand side include editorials, recent discoveries, and works in progress (<span lang="fr">éditorial, découverte, et travail en cours</span>).

==Logo==
Poképédia's logo and mascot is an {{p|Uxie}} wearing a puzzle piece around its neck. Uxie was chosen for being the Knowledge Pokémon, as Poképédia intends to be the largest French knowledge base on Pokémon. Strangely, however, Uxie has its eyes open in the logo, where the Pokédex states that anyone who sees its eyes open will lose their memory. Like the other members of its trio, it is pictured with golden eyes, though this is not known to be official.

The puzzle piece around the Uxie's neck may symbolize either the missing pieces of information that are needed to complete Poképédia, or be a reference to Wikipedia's logo, which is a sphere made of puzzle pieces.

StreetPass

2018-01-07T07:44:24Z

NAOKi:

{{incomplete}}
'''StreetPass''' (Japanese: '''すれちがい{{tt|通信|つうしん}}''' ''Passing By Communication'') is a function of both the [[Nintendo 3DS]] system and of the [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]] games.

The Nintendo 3DS's StreetPass function allows Nintendo 3DS systems that come in local wireless range of each other to exchange data. This requires that both systems be turned on, and that both systems have StreetPass functionality enabled. If a Nintendo 3DS system has received StreetPass data for any game, the secondary light will be green. If the system is in sleep mode, the light will remain green until the system is taken out of sleep mode (when it will go out completely); if the system is not in sleep mode, the light will blink green a few times, before returning to being off.

In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the BuzzNav application of the [[PokéNav Plus]] can receive "StreetPass" data through the [[Player Search System|PSS]]. When StreetPass data has been collected, a mailbox icon will be shown on the BuzzNav application (unless the player is currently in a [[Secret Base]]).

StreetPass data is saved in the 3DS's {{wp|Flash memory|internal memory}}.

==Pokémon games==
===Pokémon X, Y, Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire===
In [[Pokémon X and Y|Pokémon X, Y]], [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire]], StreetPass notifications can grant the player [[Poké Mile]]s. In Pokémon X and Y, the player can obtain these Poké Miles by viewing [[Malva]]'s StreetPass report on the [[Holo Caster]].

In [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], the BuzzNav application of the [[PokéNav Plus]] can receive "StreetPass" data from Friends, Acquaintances, and Passerby through the [[Player Search System|PSS]] (both during Local Play or when connecting to the Internet). This functionality may be activated when the BuzzNav is first used. It can only be deactivated by disabling PSS communication through the PSS Settings. Accepting StreetPass data will update the BuzzNav's programs and the Secret Bases and [[Mirage spot]]s in the player's game. StreetPass data may only receieved over the Internet periodically. The [[Eon Ticket]] can also be shared by StreetPass, either through the PSS or from players that come into local wireless range.

===Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS===
In [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]], the player can battle the StreetPassed person's character token in StreetSmash.

===Pokémon Rumble Blast===
In [[Pokémon Rumble Blast]], whenever a StreetPass is received, that player's Mii appears in a location called the Toy Shop. Visitors to the Toy Shop will reward the player with Ⓟ. As StreetPass milestones are reached (2, 5, 10, etc.), many [[legendary Pokémon]] are unlocked in the game, allowing the player the chance to capture and use it.

===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity===
[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity]] allows players to share [[Reviver Seed]]s via the mailbox.

===Pokémon Battle Trozei===
The puzzle game [[Pokémon Battle Trozei]] exchanges high scores between the player's game and those of people they StreetPass.

===The Thieves and the 1000 Pokémon===
The limited time eShop game [[The Thieves and the 1000 Pokémon]] also made use of StreetPass functionality.

===Pokémon Shuffle===
The puzzle game [[Pokémon Shuffle]] gives the player rewards for receiving StreetPass notifications.

===Pokémon Rumble World===
In [[Pokémon Rumble World]], Mii avatars of each passing user will visit the player. The player can also obtain 10 free Poké Diamonds when each StreetPass hit milestone is reached: 1, 20, 100, and 999 hits, along with 1 free Diamond for every 5 visitors that arrive in any manner. In addition, a Poké Diamond or some Ⓟ may be dropped by the Mii when it is encountered in a stage, and 10 Ⓟ (with no Wealthy Tree) is dropped by any Mii following the player when the stage is cleared, but only when the Mii is on-screen.

The '''Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire Special Demo Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスターオメガルビー・アルファサファイア特別体験版''' ''Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire Special Demo Version'') is a special, expanded {{wp|game demo|demo}} edition of [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]. It is an unlimited-use demo that is downloadable on Nintendo's 3DS eShop, but could originally only be accessed via serial code. The serial code began distribution around October 15, 2014, but the date varies by country and provider. Codes for the demo expired on May 31, 2015. It later became available for download from the eShop in North America and Europe on December 27, 2014, and in Japan from August 2 to September 30, 2016.

==Gameplay==
In the Demo Version, players assume the role of the promotional [[player character]] Orlando (Japanese: オメガ ''Omega''), who shares the appearance of {{ga|Brendan}}. The Demo is set in [[Mossdeep City]] and various [[Mirage spot]]s. During the first adventure, the player assists {{Steven}} in stopping [[Team Aqua]] or [[Team Magma]]'s plot to catch a Pokémon that can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]]. Subsequent adventures feature the player helping Steven complete other miscellaneous missions, including a couple of special missions that only appear rarely or when the right conditions are met. On every fifth adventure, the player will face an {{tc|Expert}} who will challenge the player to a battle.

During gameplay, the player can only access the Pokémon and Bag [[menu]] options, and when the menu is closed, the bottom screen shows [[TV Mauville]]'s Pokémon News on the {{DL|PokéNav Plus|BuzzNav}}. The Demo Version only saves after the player has completed an adventure, immediately before it returns to the title screen.

As the player clears more adventures, more non-playable characters (NPCs) will fill Mossdeep City and Steven will reward the player with items that can be transferred to the Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire games. Clearing the first adventure also allows the player to transfer a Steelix or Glalie with its Mega Stone to the main games. After the first adventure, once a day, the player may talk to Steven to transfer the new Mega Pokémon or items to their full Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire game via [[Pokémon Link]]. There is no restriction on sending items to a full game, but if an Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire game has previously received a Steelix or Glalie from a Demo Version, it will not be able to receive another.

If the player faints during any adventure, they will be returned to Mossdeep City standing in front of Steven and the Pokémon Center, with everything reset to its default state. That is, no items will have been used or experience gained and all progress is reset; not even the mission type or the Trainer class or bonus NPC that was present are saved for random mission adventures. During the first adventure, however, losing the first battle at Mossdeep City or the battle with Steelix/Glalie does not cause the player to faint.

The player's default inventory consists of three {{DL|Potion|Hyper Potion}}s, three {{DL|Status condition healing item|Full Heal}}s, and (after the first adventure) the [[Key Stone|Mega Bracelet]]. Pokémon are only allowed to [[held item|hold]] Mega Stones. The other items that Steven rewards the player with after completing certain adventures cannot be used within the Demo Version.

When the Demo Version is started with no saved data, it will randomly choose a theme: "red" or "blue". Throughout the Demo Version, this variable controls: the title screen's theme (Team Aqua for blue or Team Magma for red), the team that appears during missions or as NPCs at Mossdeep City, and the Pokémon that Steven rides ({{p|Latios}} for blue, {{p|Latias}} for red). This variable switches its value after every adventure that is completed, so that the adventures have alternating themes. It also switches its value if the player sends any of their rewards to their full Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire game.

The game's save data can be erased by pressing the Up, B, and X buttons simultaneously on the Demo's title screen.

===First adventure===
The Demo Version features a unique scenario that begins in [[Mossdeep City]], where {{Steven}} requests the {{player}}'s assistance at the [[Mossdeep Space Center]], where they are intercepted by a male and female pair of {{tc|Team Magma Grunt|Team Magma}} or {{tc|Team Aqua Grunt}}s. The player is given a choice between a [[level]] 35 {{p|Grovyle}}, {{p|Combusken}}, and {{p|Marshtomp}} to help Steven fight them off.

|}

After the battle, [[Professor Cozmo]] will inform the player and Steven that the evil team they just fought is seeking out a Pokémon with a recently discovered [[Mega Evolution]]. After Steven gets the coordinates of the unnamed island where the Pokémon is located, the player is allowed to explore Mossdeep City before returning to Steven to begin their pursuit.

After riding {{p|Latios}} or {{p|Latias}} to an unnamed island, Steven will tell the player to go forward, where they'll encounter [[wild Pokémon]], several grunts from each team, and {{ga|May}}, who came to investigate but was overpowered by the enemy. May will heal the player's team after the player's battle inside the cave. At this point, the player's Pokémon will have received enough experience to reach its final evolutionary form.

At the back end of the island cave, the player will find {{tc|Aqua Admin}} {{FB|Aqua Admin|Matt}} and {{tc|Magma Admin}} [[Tabitha]], who call a truce to take the player down. Before the battle can begin, however, Steven arrives, presenting the player with three gifts to shift the battle in their favor. First, he overwrites the player's Pokémon's [[status move]] with its respective {{m|Hyper Beam}} variant ({{m|Frenzy Plant}}, {{m|Blast Burn}}, or {{m|Hydro Cannon}}). Then he gives the player a [[Key Stone|Mega Bracelet]] and gives the player's Pokémon its respective [[Mega Stone]] to hold. He encourages the player to test these powers in the battle with the admins.

After defeating the admins and clearing [[Team Magma]] and [[Team Aqua]] off the island, Steven leads the player to a deeper part of the cave, where a single patch of [[tall grass]] houses the Pokémon sought by the two villainous teams. Steven gives the player five [[Poké Ball]]s to catch the Pokémon. After a successful catch, the two Trainers return to Mossdeep City, the adventure ends, and progress is saved.

===Subsequent adventures===
All adventures after the fifth adventure where the player does not have to battle an Expert can be one of three random types of missions. The second, third, and fourth adventures introduce the player to these missions and are not random, with the second adventure requiring the player to battle three Trainers, the third requiring the player to find a lost Pokémon or person (a {{p|Whismur}}, a {{tc|Youngster}}, or a {{tc|Twins|Twin}}—Gina, separated from her sister Mia), and the fourth requiring the player to find a Pokémon (a {{p|Poochyena}}, {{p|Skitty}}, or {{p|Shroomish}}). The lost characters will be partially hidden, while Pokémon inhabitants can be found by stepping to the left or right of an open patch in the middle of the [[tall grass]]. Immediately after an Expert battle adventure, any of these three missions may be randomly selected, but in the subsequent adventures, the mission type that was completed in the previous adventure will not be selected.

Trainers also appear in the random missions. The Trainers that appear will always be of the same Trainer class, with six different Trainer classes available to be randomly selected. The Trainer class that was present during the most recent random mission that was completed will not be selected, however. During Trainer battle missions, three Trainers will be present, but during the other missions, only two will be present.

A bonus NPC may also randomly appear at the destination Mirage spot during the random missions. These NPCs may be: [[Aarune]], [[Lisia]], an old man from [[Cave of Origin]], one of the cardinal sisters from [[Mauville City]], or a {{tc|Scientist}} working for [[Captain Stern]].

The location of the random missions is also randomly chosen from five different Mirage spots. Those locations are: the [[Mirage Islands]] west of [[Dewford Town]] (a beach) and north of {{rt|125|Hoenn}} (an island with ruins), the [[Mirage Forests|Mirage Forest]] south of {{rt|109|Hoenn}} (a circular path in a forest), and the [[Mirage Mountains]] northeast of {{rt|125|Hoenn}} (on the cliffs of a mountain) and southeast of {{rt|129|Hoenn}} (a small mountain). The expert battle always happens at the [[Mirage Caves|Mirage Cave]] west of {{rt|115|Hoenn}}.

All adventures after the first start with the player having the same [[party]], consisting of a level 40 {{p|Steelix}} or {{p|Glalie}} and a level 36 {{p|Sceptile}}, {{p|Blaziken}}, and {{p|Swampert}}. If the player sends Steelix/Glalie to a full Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire game, however, it will not be part of the player's party. All Pokémon hold their respective [[Mega Stone]]s.

====Special missions====
During the adventures where random missions are possible, two special missions may also be selected.

One is a follow-up to the Demo Version's first adventure, where one of the evil teams has shown up again and Orlando must battle them with the help of {{ga|May}}. It takes place at the Mirage Cave north of {{rt|124|Hoenn}}. This mission appears entirely randomly and is very rare, possibly on the order of {{pkmn2|Shiny}} chances (one in thousands). However, once the mission has been completed once, it may be started again at any time by selecting "Let's go somewhere secret!" from Steven's menu of options.

The other is a mission where the player investigates a strange man who ends up gifting the player a {{DL|Valuable item|Nugget}}, which may be transferred to the Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire games. It takes place at the Mirage Island north of {{rt|111|Hoenn}}. When this mission's conditions are met, it preempts the other random missions so that it is the only one that will appear. Its only requirement is that fifteen days have passed since the first adventure was completed.

==Completion bonuses==
Completing certain adventures may add NPCs around Mossdeep City or a new BuzzNav program. The new NPCs have a set location, and for each location there are three different sets of NPCs that are randomly chosen each time the Demo Version loads.
*After adventure 1: new BuzzNav program, "A Special Lesson from the Trainers' School"
*After adventure 2: new NPCs on the west beach
**[[Flannery]] being interviewed by [[Gabby and Ty]]

After 15 days have passed since the first adventure was finished, a number of changes also occur around Mossdeep City. [[Tate and Liza]]'s quotes when they are directly spoken to change, and the little brother of the Poké Mart owner has left Mossdeep for [[Oldale Town]]. The invisible {{p|Kecleon}} that was blocking the door to Steven's house is also gone, allowing the player to enter it.

===Random missions===
These Trainers may appear in any of the regular random missions (excluding special missions, that is), including during adventures 2, 3, and 4. Any Trainers that appear during the mission will be from the same Trainer class. In those missions with only two Trainers, only the first two Trainers of any Trainer class listed below will be present. When all three Trainers are present, the first two will be in the same position as they are in the other missions, while the third Trainer may be in one of two different positions.

==Trivia==
*Evolution cannot be canceled in the demo, and new moves cannot be learned when leveling up.
*All Trainers the player faces in the demo also appear in the Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire games, though they have different teams. Some Trainers mention the places where they normally train.
*All of the "lost" NPCs in the missions to find a lost person/Pokémon are located where an item would be on the Mirage spot in the full Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire games. In most cases, the item would be a visible item, but on the [[Mirage Islands|Mirage Island]] west of Dewford Town, the NPC occupies the location of the hidden item.
*When adventure 9 is completed, the game says that the player has earned a reward of Heart Scales, but upon starting adventure 10, the player receives no reward. When adventure 10 is completed, the game says that the player has earned "another" set of Heart Scales, but upon starting adventure 11, the player only has five Heart Scales. It may be that a reward of five was originally meant to be received after both adventures so that the player would have ten Heart Scales (just like the other item rewards are stacks of ten items).
*All [[wild Pokémon]] and obtainable Pokémon in the demo cannot be {{Shiny}}, with the exception of the [[starter Pokémon]] Grovyle, Combusken, and Marshtomp during the first adventure. However, since the demo does not include Shiny textures (with the exception of [[Steven's Metagross]]), these Pokémon appear in their normal coloration except for a red star on their summary screen and a sparkle effect when they enter a battle. After the first adventure, they are no longer treated as Shiny in any way.
