'''Ultra Warp Ride''' (Japanese: '''ウルトラワープライド''' ''Ultra Warp Ride'') is a minigame in [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]] that allows the {{player}} to travel through [[Ultra Wormhole]]s in order to gain access to various different areas of [[Ultra Space]]. This allows them to visit the homeworlds of [[Ultra Beast]]s and find rare, even [[Legendary Pokémon]].

The player is first given access to Ultra Warp Ride at the [[Altar of the Sunne]]{{sup/7|US}}/[[Altar of the Moone]]{{sup/7|UM}} by the [[Ultra Recon Squad]] in order to stop {{p|Necrozma}} from stealing [[Alola]]'s light. As Necrozma had transformed into its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|Dusk Mane}}{{sup/7|US}}/{{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|Dawn Wings}}{{sup/7|UM}} form by absorbing [[Nebby]], the player must borrow the Ultra Recon Squad's {{p|Lunala}}{{sup/7|US}}/{{p|Solgaleo}}{{sup/7|UM}} to travel to [[Ultra Megalopolis]], where Necrozma had fled to. In order to arrive at Ultra Megaopolis at this point in the game, the player must enter any white warp hole - normally reserved for the homeworlds of Ultra Beasts.

After defeating Ultra Necrozma at [[Megalo Tower]], the Ultra Recon Squad will allow the player to choose to ride on either Solgaleo or Lunala in later uses of Ultra Warp Ride - talking to Phyco in Ultra Sun or Zossie in Ultra Moon will allow them to change which Legendary Pokémon they ride, and doing so will return them to Alola. Entering the Ultra Wormhole to use Ultra Warp Ride or directly traveling to Ultra Megaopolis will then become options when interacting with the Altar of the Sunne/Moone, and all white warp holes will then lead to Ultra Beast homeworlds.

==Gameplay==
While riding on Solgaleo or Lunala's back, the player flies through Ultra Space. Contained in Ultra Space are various warp holes that each lead to a variety of different areas. In order to utilize the warp holes, the player must have Solgaleo or Lunala absorb the balls of energy floating around, giving them energy to fly faster and travel farther. Also floating around are electrified obstacles that will make Solgaleo or Lunala lose energy and slow down when hit. The spawning rates of energy balls decrease the further the player travels, and will eventually stop spawning all together. Losing enough speed will cause Solgaleo or Lunala to be affected by the gravitational pull of the warp holes and forcibly suck them in regardless of resistance if they are close enough.

There are four tiers of warp holes - regular ones, ones with halos, ones with two halos and ones with halos and a flower-shaped aura. The more {{wp|light-years}} the player travels, the more their chance of finding rarer, even {{shiny}} Pokémon, increases. The rate at which certain tiers of warp holes appear is also affected by the distance traveled, and warp holes with flower-shaped auras are guaranteed to spawn a Legendary Pokémon if possible or lead to the [[Ultra Ruin]] in the case of white warp holes. Ultra Beasts can respawn an infinite amount of times regardless of whether or not they are caught, while Legendary Pokémon will respawn infinitely until they are caught. The first time a player accesses an Ultra Beast homeworld, a short cutscene showing the dimension's scenery will play. The Pokemon caught in the Ultra Space Wilds are guaranteed to have at least 3 [[Individual Values]] of 31.

The first time it is used, Ultra Warp Ride requires the player to use the [[Nintendo 3DS]]'s motion sensors. To control Solgaleo or Lunala's flight path, the player must tilt the 3DS in the direction they wish to move. If the 3DS gyroscope falls out of alignment, it can be reset by putting the 3DS in a neutral position and pressing the A button.

After the first time, the player is given the option to use the 3DS Circle Pad instead of motion controls by talking to an {{tc|Aether Foundation Employee}} at the [[Game Freak]] building in [[Heahea City]]. The player is free to switch control options as much as they want by talking to the Employee again. Pressing the A button while the Circle Pad controls are active has no effect.

== Ultra Wormhole Types ==
{{cleanup}}
[[File:Ultra Space Wilds Rocky World.png|thumb|250px|The plain world, found in green wormholes]]
There are five colors that Ultra Wormholes can be - white, blue, green, red, and yellow. White wormholes bring the player to various home worlds of the Ultra Beasts, blue wormholes to a waterfall area, red wormholes to a cliff area, green wormholes to a plains area, and yellow wormholes to a cave. As stated above, there are four tiers of Ultra Wormholes, with increasing rarity in each to find uncommon Pokémon.

List of Pokémon with form differences

2018-01-19T16:13:30Z

PlatinumPokenut:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Six variants exist in Sun and Moon, one for each of [[Ash's hat]]s between the anime's [[original series]] and its {{series|Sun & Moon}}. A seventh variant debuts in [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]], wearing the Partner Cap, Ash's hat from the [[M20|20th movie]].

|}

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

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

| Pichu [[File:172Pichu Dream.png|110px]] {{typecolor|Electric}}
| Spiky-eared [[File:Spiky-eared Pichu DP 1.png|96px]] {{typecolor|Electric}}
|}

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

|}

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

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

From Generation IV onward, the player can switch between its forms using meteorites found in the game.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

In [[Sinnoh]], West Sea Shellos and Gastrodon are encountered west of [[Mt. Coronet]], and are pink in color; East Sea Shellos and Gastrodon are encountered east of Mt. Coronet, and are blue in color. There is also a slight difference in bodily appearance depending on the form. Later games would make one of the forms more commonly found in the wild then the other. For example, in [[Alola]], Shellos and Gastrodon only appear in their East Sea form in the wild while the West Sea form may only be encountered by transferring from a Generation VI game or an in-game trade in {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

===Greninja===

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

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

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

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

===Flabébé, Floette, and Florges{{anchor|Flabébé}}{{anchor|Floette}}{{anchor|Florges}}===
{{p|Flabébé}}, {{p|Floette}}, and {{p|Florges}} can hold five different-colored flowers: red, yellow, orange, blue, and white. The flower color is maintained through [[evolution]] and cannot be changed. In {{g|X and Y}} if a Pokémon in this evolutionary family is encountered in a flower patch, the color of the flower it holds will depend on the color of that flower patch. In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, the color is dependent on which island meadow it is found in. Orange and white flowers are found in all patches but have low encounter rates or only appear in [[SOS Battle|SOS Battles]].

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

|}

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

===Mimikyu===
{{p|Mimikyu}} has two forms called Disguised Form and Busted Form.

===Necrozma===
{{p|Necrozma}} has three additional forms; Dusk Mane Necrozma, Dawn Wings Necrozma, and Ultra Necrozma. All three forms were introduced in [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]].

Dusk Mane Necrozma is the form it attains from absorbing Solgaleo. The player can induce this fusion with the [[N-Solarizer]]. After fusing, Necrozma will attempt to learn {{m|Sunsteel Strike}}, and can use Solgaleo's exclusive Z-Move, {{m|Searing Sunraze Smash}}.

Dawn Wings Necrozma is the form it attains from absorbing Lunala. The player can induce this fusion with the [[N-Lunarizer]]. After fusing, Necrozma will attempt to learn {{m|Moongeist Beam}}, and can use Lunala's exclusive Z-Move, {{m|Menacing Moonraze Maelstrom}}.

Ultra Necrozma is a third form Necrozma can only enter in {{pkmn|battle}} as one of the previous two forms. While holding its exclusive [[Z-Crystal]], [[Ultranecrozium Z]], the player can use the [[Ultra Burst]] command from the move menu to transform into Ultra Necrozma. Once transformed, Ultra Necrozma can also use Ultranecrozium Z and {{m|Photon Geyser}} to use its exclusive Z-Move, {{m|Light That Burns the Sky}}.

The '''Pokémon metagame''' has a wide range of '''fanmade terminology''' for various aspects of the games. These are colloquial terms originating from unofficial sources, and are not found within the games themselves.

==General terms==
===6V===
Refers to a Pokémon with perfect/maximum [[individual values]] in all [[statistic|stats]].

===Balance===
A team building and battling strategy that does not focus heavily on offense or defense. Balance teams usually have one or two [[#Sweeper|sweepers]], backed up by [[#Wall|walls]]. Balance teams are often built around a specific threat, with Pokémon that synergize well with it.

===Baton Pass chain===
Refers to continuous use of the move {{m|Baton Pass}} and the accumulated [[Statistic#Stat modifiers|stat changes]].

===BST===
An abbreviation for [[base stats|base stat total]].

===Buff===
When properties of a Pokémon's stats, [[move]]pool, or [[Ability]] are changed between games to become more viable. For instance, in Generation VII, {{p|Pelipper}} and {{p|Torkoal}} has the access of Ability {{a|Drizzle}} and {{a|Drought}}, respectively.

===Bulky Offense (BO)===
A team-building and battling strategy intended to overwhelm the opponent by forcing switches and occasionally getting a strong hit. Such teams usually make use of [[#Volt-Turn|Volt-Turn]] cores and [[#Pivot|Pivots]].

===Choice lock===
Refers to how the [[held item]]s [[Choice Band]], [[Choice Scarf]], and [[Choice Specs]] limit a Pokémon to use only one of its moves. A Pokémon is said to be "Choice locked" into a specific move if forced to use it by a Choice item.

===Clause===
[[Rule variants#Rules|Clauses]] refer to the various rules that are applied to battles, such as restrictions on which [[tier|Pokémon]], moves, and items may be used. Many of these rules are found in the games, applied in settings such as battle facilities and multiplayer features.

====Baton Pass clause====
Refers to measures taken to limiting {{m|Baton Pass}}. This potentially includes limiting a team to only one Pokémon with the move, preventing boosts in {{stat|Speed}} from being passed alongside boosts in other stats, or banning the move altogether.

====Endless battle clause====
Refers to a ban on sets such as [[#Funbro|Funbro]] that have the capability of causing a battle with no possible ending. Found in some unofficial formats such as [[Smogon]] and {{OBP|Pokémon Online|battle simulator}}.

====Evasion clause====
Refers to a ban on moves that raise {{stat|evasion}} (such as {{m|Double Team}}). Does not necessarily put a ban on moves that reduce {{stat|accuracy}} (such as {{m|Sand Attack}}) or moves/Abilities that merely have a possibility of raising evasion (such as {{m|Acupressure}}/{{a|Moody}}).

====Flinch clause====
Refers to technical measures to prevent a Pokémon from flinching twice in a row. Found in [[Pokémon Conquest]] and some battle simulators.

====Freeze clause====
Refers to technical measures taken in order to prevent multiple Pokémon on the same team from being {{status|Freeze|frozen}} at the same time. Found in games like {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}} and battle simulators like {{OBP|Pokémon Online|battle simulator}}.

====Item clause====
Refers to a ban on multiple Pokémon of the same team [[held item|holding]] the same item. Found in battle facilities and officially organized tournaments, but widely ignored in many fan communities.

====Moody clause====
Refers to a ban on the ability {{a|Moody}}. Common in battle simulators.

====OHKOs clause====
Refers to a ban on the [[one-hit knockout move]]s ({{m|Fissure}}, {{m|Horn Drill}}, {{m|Guillotine}}, and {{m|Sheer Cold}}). Found in some battle simulators.

====Species clause====
Refers to a ban on the same Pokémon species or [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|National Pokédex number]]. Widely accepted in the official tournaments and many fan communities.

====Sleep clause====
Refers to a ban on the usage of sleep-inducing moves when one of the opponent's Pokémon has already been put to {{status|sleep}} by one of the user's Pokémon. As such, the move {{m|Rest}} and the Ability {{a|Effect Spore}} do not violate this ban. Found in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]] and battle simulators like [[Pokémon Showdown]] and {{OBP|Pokémon Online|battle simulator}}.

====Swagger clause====
Refers to a ban on the move {{m|Swagger}}. Common in battle simulators during Generation VI as a result of sets such as [[#SwagPlay|SwagPlay]].

===Core===
Refers to the two or three most important Pokémon in a set, which possess great synergy. The rest of the team is usually suited to supporting the core and dealing with its checks.

====Type core====

An abbreviation for [[effort values]] and [[individual values]]. DVs refers to the [[individual values]] used in Generation I and II games.

Common targets are [[critical hit]]s, moves missing, flinching, being {{status|freeze|frozen}}, the success of [[additional effect]]s, and full {{status|paralysis}}. Can also refer to reliance on uncertain outcomes, such as the use of [[one-hit knockout move]]s or [[held item]]s like [[Quick Claw]], [[Focus Band]], or {{DL|In-battle effect item|Bright Powder}}. Hax is often associated with the moves {{m|Double Team}}, {{m|Minimize}}, and {{m|Swagger}}, as well as the Abilities {{a|Moody}} and {{a|Serene Grace}}.

===Investment/spread===
Refers to how a Pokémon's [[effort values]] and [[individual values]] are invested/spread across its stats.

===IV battle===

===Mono team===
Refers to a team with homogeneity in a certain area such as [[type]], [[List of Pokémon by color|color]], or [[generation]].

===Nerf===
When properties of a Pokémon, move, or Ability are changed between games to become weaker. For instance, {{m|Thunderbolt}}, {{m|Flamethrower}}, {{m|Surf}}, and {{m|Ice Beam}} were all nerfed from 95 to 90 base [[power]] in the transition from Gen V to Gen VI.

===Pinch Berry===
Refers to the {{b|Liechi}}, {{b|Ganlon}}, {{b|Salac}}, {{b|Petaya}}, {{b|Apicot}}, {{b|Lansat}}, and {{b|Starf}} Berries, which all raise a [[stat]] when the holding Pokémon's HP drops below ¼ (referred to as being in a pinch in the games). The {{b|Micle}} and {{b|Custap}} Berries may also be considered Pinch Berries.

Also referred to as "passive/indirect damage".

===Redirection===
Refers to a tactic in [[Double Battle]] that uses moves or Abilities to force opponents to target a specific Pokémon, usually via {{m|Follow Me}} or {{m|Rage Powder}}, but also includes the moves {{m|Spotlight}} and [[Z-Move|Z]]-{{m|Destiny Bond}} or the Abilities {{a|Lightning Rod}} or {{a|Storm Drain}}.

===Scouting===
Refers to a battle strategy that uses the {{cat|protection moves}} to ease prediction and retain momentum for a team. Also used for various battle strategies via {{m|Protect}}/{{m|Detect}}, such as a Pokémon with the [[held item]] [[Toxic Orb]]/[[Flame Orb]] to activate its {{a|Guts}} Ability and a Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Speed Boost}} or {{a|Moody}}.

"Auto Setter" refers to a Pokémon with the Ability that changes the [[weather]] or [[terrain]], as soon as a Pokémon with the said Ability enters the battle, without wasting a turn.

An abbreviation for [[same-type attack bonus]].

===Stall===
A team building strategy that uses defensive pressure to create a standstill, while slowly damaging the opponent with [[status]] and other residual damage. Pokémon on such teams either have reliable recovery and good bulk in one area or check a certain threat that the team would otherwise fall to. Stall teams are reliant on [[#Hazard remover|hazard removers]] and [[#Hazard blocker|blockers]] to remove entry hazards, which can heavily damage the team due to the large amount of switching that is required. See also [[#Staller|Staller]].

Additional rule known by community as [[GS Cup|GS Rule]] or "Generation Showdown" also allowed to use maximum of 2 Special Pokémon in a team. Starting in VGC 2014, all Pokémon with the specific [[origin marking]] are required to participate in the competitions.

==Pokémon sets==
Refer to Pokémon not only by species, but also by their [[statistic|stats]], [[move]]s, [[Ability]], and [[held item]].

====AcroGem====
Refers to a Pokémon set that includes the [[move]] {{m|Acrobatics}} and [[held item|holding]] {{DL|Gem|Flying Gem}}, a popular strategy used in [[Generation V]].

This set became non-existent since Generation VI because all [[Gem]]s except Normal Gem are unobtainable in those games.

====Annoyer/Disruptor====
Refers to a Pokémon set that is intended to prevent the opponent from progressing with their strategy, commonly through the use of [[status move]]s and [[status condition]]s.

====Anti-Intimidate====
Refers to a Pokémon whose [[Ability]] is either {{a|Hyper Cutter}}, {{a|Clear Body}}, {{a|Defiant}}, or {{a|Competitive}} with the intended effect of preventing or exploiting the {{stat|Attack}} drop from a Pokémon with {{a|Intimidate}} Ability. Pokémon with Defiant Ability raises Attack to +1 and Pokémon with Competitive Ability raises Sp. Atk to +2 when Intimidate is affecting those Pokémon. [[Adrenaline Orb]] is sometimes used on the Pokémon with the aforementioned Ability to further raise its {{stat|Speed}} by 1 stage.

====AV/WP====
Refers to a Pokémon set that includes the [[held item]] [[Assault Vest]] or [[Weakness Policy]].

====Baton Passer====
Refers to a Pokémon set that is intended to use the move {{m|Baton Pass}} in order to pass on positive [[stat]] changes and/or {{DL|Status condition|volatile battle status}}es, which it may or may not have contributed to itself.

====Blanket Check====
Refers to a Pokémon that is added to the team to check a lot of threats and metagame trends at once.

====BoltBeam====
Refers to the [[move]]s {{m|Thunderbolt}} and {{m|Ice Beam}} being present in a Pokémon set, and the resulting offensive [[type]] synergy. "Pseudo BoltBeam" refers to a damage-dealing {{type|Electric}} move and a damage-dealing {{type|Ice}} move being present in a Pokémon set, when these are not the exact combination of Thunderbolt and Ice Beam (usually an Electric-type Pokémon with an Ice-type {{m|Hidden Power}}).

====BU/CM====
Refers to a Pokémon set that includes the move {{m|Bulk Up}} or {{m|Calm Mind}}.

====Bulky====
Refers to a Pokémon set that, due to its combination of {{stat|HP}} and {{stat|Defense}} and/or {{stat|Special Defense}}, takes a comparatively low percentage of damage from [[physical move]]s, [[special move]]s or both.

====Check====
Refers to a Pokémon set that has an advantage over another Pokémon set such that it can easily defeat that other Pokémon or force it to [[recall|switch out]]. A check differs from a [[#Counter|counter]] in that a check cannot switch in then threaten the Pokémon.

Starting in Generation VI, Copycat can no longer call the move Roar. Players speculate that this was changed to specifically prevent this strategy.

====Critdra====
Refers to a {{p|Kingdra}} set that includes the Ability {{a|Sniper}}, the move {{m|Focus Energy}}, and the held item [[Scope Lens]].

When the opponent runs out of {{PP}}, it uses Heal Pulse to recover {{m|Struggle}} damage.

Refers to a {{p|Mewtwo}} set that includes the [[move]]s {{m|Amnesia}} (which boosts both {{stat|Special}} stats instead of Special Defense), {{STAB}} {{m|Psychic}}, and two other moves (typically {{m|Blizzard}}/{{m|Ice Beam}} and {{m|Recover}}/{{m|Rest}}), intended for use in [[Generation I]] due to its very high [[base stats]] total and previously unrivaled [[#Bulky|bulky]] [[#Sweeper|sweeper]].

====RBY Tauros====
Refers to a {{p|Tauros}} set that includes the [[move]]s {{m|Hyper Beam}}, {{m|Body Slam}}, {{m|Earthquake}}, and {{m|Blizzard}}, intended for use in [[Generation I]] due to its previously perfect coverage and having a high chance of [[critical hit]], thanks to its high Speed stat influencing the critical hit rate.

====Scarfchomp====
Refers to a {{p|Garchomp}} set that includes the [[held item]] [[Choice Scarf]]. It is featured in several {{cat|battle areas|battle facilities}} found in the games.

====Scarfgon====
Refers to a {{p|Flygon}} set that includes the [[held item]] [[Choice Scarf]] and the [[move]]s {{m|U-turn}}, {{m|Outrage}}, and {{m|Earthquake}}, which was commonly used in Generation IV metagame.

====Scarfloom/Sashloom====
Refers to a {{p|Breloom}} set that includes the [[held item]] [[Choice Scarf]]/[[Focus Sash]] and the [[move]]s {{m|Spore}} and three other attacking moves such as {{m|Bullet Seed}}, {{m|Mach Punch}}, and {{m|Rock Tomb}}.

====Scarfogre====
Refers to a {{p|Kyogre}} set that includes the [[held item]] [[Choice Scarf]] and the move {{m|Water Spout}}, which is boosted by {{weather|rain}} activated by its Ability {{a|Drizzle}}. It has fallen out of favor since [[Generation VI]] due to the introduction of [[Primal Reversion|Primal]] {{p|Groudon}} and its {{a|Desolate Land}} Ability in [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]].

====Scarfraptor/Bandraptor====
Refers to a {{p|Staraptor}} set that includes the [[held item]] [[Choice Scarf]]/[[Choice Band]] and the moves {{m|U-turn}} and {{m|Final Gambit}}, which serves as [[#Scout lead|scout lead]] and [[#Revenge killer|revenge killer]], respectively.

====Sejun Pachirisu====
Refers to a defensive {{p|Pachirisu}} set with the moves {{m|Nuzzle}}, {{m|Follow Me}}, {{m|Super Fang}}, and {{m|Protect}}, and holding [[Sitrus Berry]], intended to be used in [[Double Battle]]. This set is popularized by Se Jun Park, the winner of [[2014 World Championships]] in VGC Master Division.

====Smogon-====
A prefix used to refer to extremely common Pokémon in the metagame, usually OU, that are considered to be broken or requiring little skill, and are apparently copied and pasted from [[Smogon]] pages. Examples include Smogonbird, referring to a {{p|Talonflame}} with {{a|Gale Wings}}; Smogonfrog, which refers to a {{p|Greninja}} with {{a|Protean}}; and Smogonsword, referring to {{m|King's Shield}} {{p|Aegislash}} in either Shield and Blade Forme.

====Specsmence====
Refers to a {{p|Salamence}} set that includes the [[held item]] [[Choice Specs]] and [[special move]]s such as {{m|Draco Meteor}} and {{m|Flamethrower}}.

====Stallrein====
Refers to a {{p|Walrein}} set that includes {{m|Protect}}, {{m|Substitute}}, [[Leftovers]], and {{a|Ice Body}}, intended for [[#Staller|stalling]] during a {{weather|hail}}storm.

====Stallzard====
Refers to a bulky {{me|Charizard}} X set that includes the moves {{m|Will-O-Wisp}} and {{m|Roost}}, and two other attacking moves (typically {{m|Flare Blitz}}/{{m|Fire Punch}}/{{m|Earthquake}} and {{m|Dragon Claw}}/{{m|Thunder Punch}}).

====Steel Trapper====
Refers to {{p|Magnezone}} or {{p|Magneton}} with the Ability {{a|Magnet Pull}}, which is used to [[#Trapper|trap]] the opposing {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.

====Sturdinja====
Refers to a {{p|Shedinja}} with the [[Ability]] {{a|Sturdy}}. Due to Sturdy only activating upon the Pokemon having 1 HP left on a move that usually knocks it out, when holding [[Safety Goggles]], it cannot be killed by any means except for poison or burn damage. Usually set up in [[Double Battle|Double]] or [[Triple Battle]]s by using Pokémon with {{m|Skill Swap}} such as {{p|Carbink}} with the Ability Sturdy to a Pokemon that knows [[Entrainment]], such as Pangoro, then having the Carbink switch out for Shedinja and have Entrainment used on it.

====Swagkey====
Refers to a {{a|Prankster}} {{p|Klefki}} set that knows {{m|Swagger}}, {{m|Thunder Wave}}, and {{m|Foul Play}}. Has fallen out of favor in Generation VII due to the [[confusion]] and Prankster nerfs.

====Swiftdra====
Refers to a {{p|Kingdra}} set that includes the Ability {{a|Swift Swim}}, the moves {{m|Muddy Water}}/{{m|Hydro Pump}} and {{m|Draco Meteor}}, and the held item [[Choice Specs]]/{{DL|Gem|Dragon Gem}}, intended to be used in the [[rain]] [[weather]]. It has fallen out of favor since Generation VI, as the rain summoned by {{a|Drizzle}} Ability lasts only for five turns instead of the whole battle.

====Techniloom/Technitop====
Refers to a {{p|Breloom}} or {{p|Hitmontop}} set that includes the Ability {{a|Technician}} and one or more moves with base powers of 60 or less.

====Thapex====
Refers to a {{p|Toxapex}} with {{a|Regenerator}} Ability and the moves {{m|Scald}}, {{m|Toxic}}, {{m|Recover}}, and {{m|Haze}}, holding a [[Black Sludge]] or [[Shed Shell]]. Popular on stall and balance teams. Occasionally one of the moves is substituted for {{m|Toxic Spikes}}.

====TormenTran====
Refers to a defensive {{p|Heatran}} set that includes the [[move]]s {{m|Torment}}, {{m|Substitute}}/{{m|Protect}}, and {{m|Lava Plume}} and [[held item|holding]] a [[Leftovers]], intended for [[#Staller|stalling]].

====Toxic Heal====
Refers to {{p|Breloom}}/{{p|Gliscor}} with the Ability {{a|Poison Heal}} and [[held item|holding]] a [[Toxic Orb]]. When Toxic Orb activates (usually supported via {{m|Protect}}) and badly {{status|poison}}s the Pokémon, the Ability Poison Heal gradually heals the Pokémon each turn instead of damages them (which is more effective than [[Leftovers]]). It also prevents being affected by major status conditions due to being badly poisoned.

====TruAnt====
Refers to {{p|Durant}} set includes the Ability {{a|Truant}} and the move {{m|Entrainment}}. As the opponent in several {{cat|battle areas|battle facilities}} switches only under very specific circumstances, this strategy allows the player to switch another Pokémon, use {{m|Protect}} when being attacked, and attack/set up when the opponent's Pokémon is loafing due to the Ability Truant transferred via Entrainment.

====TyraniBoah====
Refers to a {{p|Tyranitar}} set that includes both [[physical move|physical]] and [[special move]]s, including the moves {{m|Substitute}} and {{m|Focus Punch}}.

====Unaware Wall====
Refers to a Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Unaware}} (such as {{p|Clefable}}, {{p|Quagsire}}, and {{p|Pyukumuku}}) and typically [[held item|holding]] a [[Leftovers]], as well as knowing a {{cat|status moves that heal the user immediately|self-recovery move}} such as {{m|Recover}} and {{m|Soft-Boiled}}, intended to [[#Wall|wall]] the [[#Setup sweeper|setup sweeper]]s.

====Vincune====
Refers to a Suicune with {{m|Scald}}, {{m|Calm Mind}}, {{m|Substitute}}, and {{m|Protect}}, intended for PP stalling opposing Pokémon.

====Webber====
Refers to the leading Pokémon set that knows {{m|Sticky Web}}, an [[#Entry hazard|entry hazard]] move that intended to slow down the opponent's team. Examples include {{a|Sturdy}} {{p|Shuckle}} with [[Mental Herb]] and [[Focus Sash]] {{p|Smeargle}}.

====Wondertomb/Wondereye====
Refers to a {{p|Spiritomb}} or {{p|Sableye}} that has been [[cheating|hacked]] to have the [[Ability]] {{a|Wonder Guard}}, making it immune to essentially all direct damage. This term is essentially obsolete as of Generation VI as the {{t|Dark}}/{{t|Ghost}} type combination no longer has zero weaknesses with the introduction of the {{t|Fairy}} type.

===Team archetypes===
====AFK====
Refers to the core of {{p|Arcanine}} with {{a|Intimidate}} Ability, {{p|Tapu Fini}}, and {{p|Kartana}} being present in a team in VGC 2017.

====Big 6====
Refers to a set of {{p|Xerneas}}, [[Primal Reversion|Primal]] {{p|Groudon}}, {{me|Salamence}}, {{me|Kangaskhan}}, {{p|Smeargle}}, and {{p|Talonflame}} in VGC 2016.

Minor variants that swap out a single member (usually Talonflame) are referred to as Big X, where X depends on the Pokémon not part of the Big 6 that is on the team (usually the first letter of its name). One common variant is Big B, where {{p|Bronzong}} replaces Talonflame.

====Bird Spam/Fly Spam====
Refers to an offensive core consisting of {{p|Talonflame}} and {{p|Staraptor}} or {{me|Pinsir}}. This team would make use of [[priority]] {{t|Flying}} attacks, as well as powerful {{t|Fire}} and {{type|Fighting}} coverage to gain immediate momentum and have them wear down each others' checks.

====Celetran====
Refers to a {{p|Celebi}} set and a {{p|Heatran}} set being present in a team in a Single Battle, and the resulting defensive synergy and offensive pressure due to the versatility of Celebi and Heatran.

====CHALK====
Refers to a set of {{p|Cresselia}}, {{p|Heatran}}, {{p|Amoonguss}}, {{p|Landorus}} Therian Forme, and {{me|Kangaskhan}} in VGC 2015. This team was used by the Japanese players in Top 8 Master Division of [[2015 World Championships]].

====CressTran====
Refers to a {{p|Cresselia}} set and a {{p|Heatran}} set being present in a team in a [[Double Battle]]. Common in Generation V and VI VGC (2012-2013, 2015).

====DeoSharp====
Refers to a {{p|Deoxys}} Defense Forme with {{m|Spikes}}/{{m|Stealth Rock}} holding a [[Red Card]] and a {{a|Defiant}} {{p|Bisharp}} being present in a team in a Single Battle. This team is used to punish the opposing [[#Hazard remover|hazard remover]], especially a {{m|Defog}}ger, by using the opponent's Defog on Bisharp, which activates Bisharp's Defiant Ability and raises its Attack by 2 stages.

====Divecats====
A team in Generation V which features {{a|Prankster}} {{p|Liepard}} and/or {{p|Purrloin}} that know {{m|Assist}} and are holding a {{DL|In-battle effect item|Lagging Tail}} or {{DL|Incense|Full Incense}}, with the only moves known by other Pokémon being {{cat|moves with a semi-invulnerable turn}} or moves that cannot be called by Assist. (If both Liepard and Purrloin are being used, they also cannot know any moves other than moves with a semi-invulnerable turn or moves that cannot be called by Assist.) Typically, {{m|Dive}} and {{m|Shadow Force}} are used (Shadow Force for being unable to be hit by any move, Dive to hit Normal types).

This setup means that Purrloin/Liepard will use the move Assist with +1 [[priority]], which calls a move with a semi-invulnerable turn. The next turn, they move at 0 priority (since they are now using a physical move, so Prankster doesn't apply), and move last due to the held Lagging Tail/Full Incense. Repeating this process, they wear down the opposing team and are very difficult to hit.

Starting in Generation VI, Assist can no longer call moves with a semi-invulnerable turn. Players speculate that this was changed to specifically prevent this strategy.

====Double Defog Stall====
Refers to a set of {{a|Arena Trap}} {{p|Dugtrio}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, and {{p|Skarmory}}, as well as some [[#Staller|staller]]s such as {{p|Chansey}}, {{p|Clefable}}, and {{p|Alomomola}}. This team differs from [[#SPL Stall|SPL Stall]] in that it relies on {{m|Defog}} to keep hazards off the field instead of {{me|Sableye}}. Also known as Ciele Stall, after its creator.

====Double Genie====
Refers to a pair of {{p|Thundurus}} Incarnate Forme and {{p|Landorus}} Therian Forme being present in a team in a [[Double Battle]]. Common in Generation V and VI VGC (2013, 2015-2016).

====DragMag====
Refers to the core of {{type|Dragon}} sweeper (such as {{p|Latios}}, {{p|Garchomp}}, {{p|Hydreigon}}, and {{p|Salamence}}) and {{a|Magnet Pull}} {{p|Magnezone}} with {{type|Fire}} {{m|Hidden Power}} being used together as an offensive core in a Single Battle, which allows a Dragon-type Pokémon to spam the powerful Dragon-type attacks such as {{m|Outrage}} and {{m|Draco Meteor}} without being countered by {{type|Steel}} Pokémon. Has fallen out of favor in Generation VII due to the introduction of the {{t|Fairy}} type.

====Dual Weather====
Refers to a pair of Pokémon with {{cat|Abilities with effects on weather conditions}} ({{a|Drought}} and {{a|Sand Stream}}, etc.) being used together as an offensive core. These teams are also designed to defeat a Pokémon with the specific [[type]] and counter the other [[weather]]-based teams. Examples include {{me|Charizard}} Y and {{p|Hippowdon}}/{{p|Tyranitar}} core (Sun-Sand Offense) in Single Battle and Primal {{p|Groudon}} and Primal {{p|Kyogre}} team (Dual [[Primal Reversion|Primal]]) in VGC 2016.

====Ferrocent/Jellithorn====
Refers to a pair of {{p|Ferrothorn}} and {{p|Jellicent}} being present in a team, resulting the offensive and defensive synergy especially in the [[rain]]. Common in Generation V VGC (2011-2013).

====GardeSpore====
Refers to a pair of {{me|Gardevoir}} with {{m|Trick Room}} and {{p|Amoonguss}} that knows {{m|Spore}} and {{m|Rage Powder}} being present in a team in a [[Double Battle]]. Common in Generation VI VGC (2014-2016).

====GyaraVire====
Refers to {{p|Gyarados}} and {{p|Electivire}} being used together as an offensive core in Generation IV. Electivire switches into Gyarados's {{type|Electric}} weakness to boost its Speed by one due to the Ability {{a|Motor Drive}}. Gyarados switches into {{type|Ground}} attacks aimed at the switched out Electivire.

====Intimidate Volt-Turn====
Refers to {{p|Landorus}} Therian Forme and {{me|Manectric}} being used together as an offensive core in Single and [[Double Battle]]s, due to their natural type synergy and devastating combination of {{a|Intimidate}} Ability and {{m|U-turn}}/{{m|Volt Switch}}.

====Japan Sand====
Refers to {{p|Tyranitar}} with [[Choice Scarf]] and {{p|Excadrill}} with [[Focus Sash]] being used together as an offensive core. Tyranitar's Ability {{a|Sand Stream}} summons {{weather|sandstorm}}, which doubles Excadrill's Speed due to its Ability {{a|Sand Rush}} activated during sandstorm. Common in Generation V and VI VGC (2011-2013, 2015).

====Khan Artist====
Refers to {{me|Kangaskhan}} and {{p|Smeargle}} as the leads in a [[Double Battle]]. Typically, Smeargle knows {{m|Dark Void}} and Kangaskhan knows {{m|Fake Out}}, allowing significant first-turn disruption by putting both of the opponent's Pokémon to {{status|sleep}}. Common in Generation VI VGC (2014, 2015, 2016).

From [[Generation VII]] onward, Dark Void fails if used by any Pokémon other than {{p|Darkrai}}, so Dark Void Smeargle is no longer used.

====KokoChomp====
Refers to {{p|Tapu Koko}} and {{p|Garchomp}} being present in a team in VGC 2017. Due to the presence of [[guardian deities]] in this format, Garchomp's {{m|Dragon Claw}} is often replaced with another coverage move such as {{m|Poison Jab}} or {{m|Fire Fang}}.

====LeleBlim====
Refers to {{p|Tapu Lele}} and {{a|Unburden}} {{p|Drifblim}} that knows {{m|Tailwind}} and holding [[Psychic Seed]] being present in a team in VGC 2017. Drifblim is able set up Tailwind faster than any other Pokémon due to its Unburden Ability activated when Psychic Seed is consumed in the {{m|Psychic Terrain}}.

====Lillikoal====
Refers to {{p|Torkoal}} with the Ability {{a|Drought}} and {{p|Lilligant}} with the Ability {{a|Chlorophyll}} as the leads in a team in VGC 2017. Due to being the slowest [[weather]] setter, Torkoal's Ability Drought causes [[intense sunlight]] with very little interruption, which doubles Lilligant's Speed due to its Ability Chlorophyll activated during the sunny weather. Lilligant can also use {{m|After You}} to make Torkoal's {{m|Eruption}} attack faster after Lilligant.

====Mimilax====
Refers to {{p|Mimikyu}} with {{m|Trick Room}} and {{a|Gluttony}} {{p|Snorlax}} holding [[Figy Berry]] or [[Iapapa Berry]] being present in a team in VGC 2017.

====Rain Offense====
Refers to a Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Drizzle}} (such as {{p|Kyogre}}, {{p|Politoed}}, or {{p|Pelipper}}) and a Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Swift Swim}} (such as {{p|Ludicolo}}, {{p|Kingdra}}, {{p|Kabutops}}, {{p|Omastar}}, {{p|Poliwrath}}, {{p|Golduck}}, or {{me|Swampert}}) being used together as an offensive core. These teams are also quite used in [[Double Battle]], which includes Politoed/Ludicolo ("Policolo") in VGC 2012-2014 and Pelipper/Golduck ("Double Duck") in VGC 2017.

====RayOgre====
Refers to a pair of {{me|Rayquaza}} and [[Primal Reversion|Primal]] {{p|Kyogre}} in VGC 2016, which was used to counter the [[#Big 6|Big 6]] or {{p|Xerneas}}/[[Primal Reversion|Primal]] {{p|Groudon}} team.

====Regen Core====
Refers to the core of several Pokémon with {{a|Regenerator}} Ability (such as {{p|Alomomola}}, {{p|Reuniclus}}, {{p|Slowbro}}, {{p|Slowking}}, {{p|Tangrowth}}, and {{p|Tornadus}} Therian Forme) being present in a team in a Single Battle, which requires numerous [[recall|switches]] to restore the team's HP by using the Ability Regenerator.

====SkarmBliss====
Refers to a {{p|Skarmory}} set and a {{p|Blissey}} set being present in a team in a Single Battle, and the resulting defensive synergy by switching to the appropriate Pokémon to take physical or special hits, respectively. Both Skarmory and Blissey usually hold [[Leftovers]] in the unofficial formats. Starting in Generation V, {{p|Chansey}} is commonly used instead of Blissey due to the introduction of [[Eviolite]].

====SPL Stall====
Also known as "standard stall", this is the most common defensive team in a Single Battle, and the one most often considered when stall is being discussed. The team contains {{me|Sableye}}, {{a|Arena Trap}} {{p|Dugtrio}}, [[Eviolite]] {{p|Chansey}}, [[Shed Shell]] {{p|Skarmory}}, {{a|Unaware}} {{p|Clefable}}, and {{a|Regenerator}} {{p|Toxapex}}. The term was first used by the players of [[Smogon]] in SPL 2017.

====Terracott====
Refers to {{p|Terrakion}} and {{p|Whimsicott}} with the move {{m|Beat Up}} as the leads in a [[Double Battle]]. Typically, Whimsicott uses Beat Up on Terrakion, activating Terrakion's {{a|Justified}} Ability and raising its {{stat|Attack}} by 4 stages. Common in Generation V and VI VGC (2011-2013, 2015).

====Toxasteela====
Refers to a {{p|Toxapex}} set and a {{p|Celesteela}} set being present in a team in a Single Battle, resulting the defensive synergy by Toxapex and the offensive/defensive pressure by Celesteela.

====Veil Offense====
Refers to a team with a {{a|Snow Warning}} {{alo|Ninetales}} with {{m|Aurora Veil}} and holding [[Light Clay]], assisted by bulky [[#Sweeper|sweepers]].

====Voidcats====
Refers to a {{p|Liepard}}/male {{p|Meowstic}} with {{a|Prankster}} Ability with {{m|Assist}} and a {{p|Smeargle}} knowing {{m|Dark Void}} either as an ally or within the active party. All the other Pokemon on the team have moves such as {{m|Focus Punch}} which cannot be called upon via Assist so the Liepard/Meowstic is able to use a +1 [[priority]] Dark Void at the opponents causing both to fall asleep. Although rarely seen, it was seen in Generation VI VGC (2014-2016).

From [[Generation VII]] onward, Dark Void fails if used by any Pokémon other than {{p|Darkrai}}, so Voidcats is no longer used.

====Webs====
Refers to a team with a [[#Webber|Webber]], at least one [[#Spinblocker|Spinblocker]] such as {{p|Mimikyu}}, at least one {{m|Defog}} punisher such as {{a|Defiant}} {{p|Bisharp}} or {{a|Contrary}} {{p|Serperior}}, and other offensive Pokémon that take advantage of the opponent's lowered {{stat|Speed}}.

====Wonder Trio====
Refers to {{me|Sableye}}, {{p|Shedinja}} with {{m|Baton Pass}}, and {{a|Arena Trap}} {{p|Dugtrio}} sets being present in a team in a Single Battle, which is used to punish the opposing entry hazard users by using Mega Sableye's {{a|Magic Bounce}} and trap potential stall and stallbreakers by using the momentum of Shedinja's Baton Pass and Dugtrio's Arena Trap.

These teams are also accompanied with popular [[#Wall|wall]]s and/or [[#Staller|staller]]s, which includes [[Shed Shell]] {{p|Skarmory}}, [[Eviolite]] {{p|Chansey}}, {{a|Unaware}} {{p|Clefable}}/{{p|Quagsire}}, {{a|Shadow Tag}} {{p|Gothitelle}}, and/or {{a|Regenerator}} {{p|Toxapex}}.

====ZapChomp====
Refers to {{p|Zapdos}} and {{p|Garchomp}} being used together in a [[Double Battle]]. The popularity of [[#Disquake|Disquake]] strategy was stemmed by this team. Common in Generation IV, V, and VI VGC (2009-2010, 2012, 2014).

'''Wooper''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ウパー''' ''Upah'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Ground}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Quagsire}} starting at [[level]] 20.

==Biology==
Wooper is a mostly blue, amphibious Pokémon that resembles an upright, armless {{wp|axolotl}}. Wooper's head is large compared to its body, and it has small, round, black eyes. It has purple, branching gills on either side of its head; the males have more branches in its gills than the females. Wooper stands on two small, round feet, and it has a large, thick tail. On its belly are dark blue curved markings.

It is implied in [[SS08|the anime]] that Wooper is a dull-witted Pokémon oblivious to its surroundings. Wooper lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|cold water}} most of the time. When sleeping, it partially buries itself in the mud at the bottom. It will occasionally leave the water when the air cools in the evening to search for food along the shore. While walking on land, it coats its body with a slimy, toxic film that keeps its skin from dehydrating and insulates against the cold. The film causes a shooting pain if touched barehanded.

==In the anime==
===In the main series===

A Wooper also made an appearance in ''[[DP007|Like It Or Lup It!]]''.

Another Wooper appeared under the ownership of [[Leona's parents]] in ''[[DP063|Hot Springing a Leak!]]''. They used Wooper to investigate a pipe line when they noticed their water was being drained and helped discover that {{TRT}} were responsible.

==Trivia==
* Wooper has the lowest base stat total of all {{type|Ground}} Pokémon and the lowest base {{stat|Special Defense}} stat of all Ground-type Pokémon.
* Wooper was one of the first Pokémon to have its [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|gender differences]] revealed, along with {{p|Scizor}}.

===Origin===
{{bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Wooper}}
Wooper seems to be based on a larval {{wp|salamander}}, which has a flat tail and feathery, external gills. Its {{Shiny}} sprite gives it a similar coloration to that of {{wp|albino}}, {{wp|leucistic}}, and flavistic color mutants, or an {{wp|axolotl}}, a species of salamander that keeps its gills and remains in the water for all of its life because it never develops lungs.

====Name origin====
Wooper and Upah are derived from ''wooper looper'', a marketing term created in Japan that started a pet salamander raising fad. Wooper loopers are the Japanese term for the {{wp|axolotl}}, a species of {{wp|salamander}}.

'''Petal Dance''' (Japanese: '''はなびらのまい''' ''Petal Dance'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Grass}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. Prior to [[Generation II]], it was the [[signature move]] of {{p|Oddish}}'s evolutionary line.

==Effect==
===Generation I===
Petal Dance inflicts damage for 3-4 turns, has a base power of 70, and 20 {{PP}}. PP is deducted only on the turn Petal Dance is first called. Once called, even if the move misses, the user will only be able to use Petal Dance, and will not be able to [[switch]] out. After Petal Dance is finished, the user becomes {{status|Confusion|confused}}.

If the Petal Dance duration is disrupted (such as by full {{status|paralysis}} or hurting itself due to {{status|confusion}}), it will immediately end. The user will only become confused if Petal Dance is fully executed, without its duration being disrupted. {{status|Sleep}}, {{status|freeze}}, partial trapping, and {{status|flinch}}ing will pause but not disrupt the duration of Petal Dance.

In Stadium, after the duration of Petal Dance ends, there will be a notice that the user becomes confused.

===Generations II and III===
The duration of Petal Dance is decreased to 2-3 turns.

In battles with multiple opponents, the user selects itself as the target, but hits an adjacent opponent that is selected at random upon each use of the move.

Petal Dance can also be used as part of a [[Contest combination|Pokémon Contest combination]], with the user gaining four extra appeal points if the move {{m|Growth}} was used in the prior turn.

===Generation IV===
The power of Petal Dance is [[List of modified moves|increased]] to 90. All other effects are the same.

===Generation V===
The power of Petal Dance is further increased to 120, and its PP is reduced to 10. It is disrupted if it is not successful due to missing, {{status|sleep}}ing, {{status|paralysis}}, {{status|freeze}}, {{status|flinch}}ing, a {{m|Protect}}ing target, or a type immunity. If a disruption occurs on what would have been the final, confusion-inducing turn of Petal Dance, the user will still become confused.

'''Pacifidlog Town''' (Japanese: '''{{j|キナギタウン}}''' ''Kinagi Town'') is a town located in the seas south of the mainland of the [[Hoenn]] region.

Pacifidlog Town is a small town built on wooden rafts and logs that float on top of a {{p|Corsola}} colony. The people living in Pacifidlog Town all [[Fishing|fish]] and {{m|dive}} as part of their lifestyle. The ancestors of the people in Pacifidlog Town were said to have been born on boats, and lived and died aboard them. According to legend, they lived that way because they were searching for something.

There is also a legend in Pacifidlog Town of a flying {{t|Dragon}} Pokémon that never needs to rest. This could refer to {{p|Rayquaza}}. There is also a [[Myths and legends involving Legendary Pokémon#Legend of the Regis|legend]] of three sealed-away Pokémon that represent the powers of {{t|Ice}}, {{t|Rock}}, and {{t|Steel}}, which refers to the [[Legendary titans]]: {{p|Regice}}, {{p|Regirock}}, and {{p|Registeel}}.

The town is located east of {{ci|Slateport}} and the [[Sealed Chamber]], and west of the [[Sky Pillar]].

In the [[Generation III]] games, the player cannot [[Running Shoes|run]] or ride a [[Bicycle]] in Pacifidlog Town.

==Slogan==
'''''Where the morning sun smiles upon the waters.''''' (Japanese: '''{{j|あさひが　みずべを　てらす　まち}}''' ''The town where the morning sun shines upon the waters.'')

==Places of interest==
===Mirage Island man===
In {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} an old man can be found living on the east side of Pacifidlog Town. He is seen looking out for {{gdis|Mirage Island|III}} and will shout out in excitement on days that it appears. Every day, the game generates a random number between 0 and 65535. If this number matches the [[personality value]] of any of the Pokémon in the {{player}}'s [[party]], Mirage Island will be accessible that day.

In {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}} the old man instead tells the {{player}} about [[Mirage spot]]s.

===Pokémon Fan Club Chairman's sibling===
The [[Pokémon Fan Club Chairman]]'s younger brother lives in a house on the west side of the town. He will give out one of two possible [[TM]]s every seven days depending on the [[friendship]] of the player's {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. If the first Pokémon in the party's friendship is high, he will give the player {{TM|27|Return}}; if it is low, he will give the player {{TM|21|Frustration}}. If the Pokémon's friendship is neutral, he will not give any TM, but the player may still receive a TM by showing him a different Pokémon.

===In-game trade===
Located south of the [[Pokémon Center]], there is a woman who will trade a {{p|Corsola}} for a {{p|Bellossom}} in Ruby, Sapphire, Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire. In Emerald, a man will trade a {{p|Horsea}} for a {{p|Bagon}}.

===Move Tutor===
In {{game|Emerald}}, inside the Pokémon Center there is a tutor who will teach a compatible Pokémon {{m|Explosion}} one time only.

==Demographics==
===Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire===
In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, Pacifidlog Town's population in the games is only 20, a low number by [[Hoenn]] standards. This may be attributable to its remote location.

===Pokémon Emerald===
In {{game|Emerald}}, Pacifidlog Town has a total population of 21.

===Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire===
In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Pacifidlog Town has a total population of 18.

==In the anime==
[[File:Pacifidlog Town anime.png|thumb|220px|Pacifidlog Town in the anime]]
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Pacifidlog Town was shown to be located on a regular island instead of a town built on wooden rafts. Like many other towns in the [[Hoenn]] [[region]], it is home to a [[Contest Hall]].

[[File:Pacifidlog Contest Hall.png|thumb|left|220px|Pacifidlog Town Contest Hall]]
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} arrived in Pacifidlog Town in ''[[AG115|Mean With Envy]]'', where they met up with [[Pokémon Coordinator]]s [[Erica]] and {{OBP|Joshua|Coordinator}}. Erica, who was expecting to win the Pacifidlog {{pkmn|Contest}} together with her boyfriend Joshua, engaged in a [[rival]]ry with May after she saw her chatting with him. Later on, the three young Coordinators, as well as a [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguised]] [[Jessie]], entered the Pacifidlog Convention in hopes of getting the coveted Pacifidlog [[Ribbon]].

In the [[Appeal|Appeals Round]], Jessie had {{MTR}} using {{m|Fury Swipes}} to make a sculpture of {{an|Giovanni}} and himself out of a giant block of ice, impressing the crowd. Joshua showcased his {{p|Houndoom}}'s talents with a [[Contest combination|combination]] of {{m|Shadow Ball}} and {{m|Swift}}, whereas Erica displayed her {{p|Jynx}}'s psychic powers by combining {{m|Blizzard}} and {{m|Psychic}}. May also made use of Blizzard, having {{TP|May|Skitty}} using the [[move]] to freeze the {{m|Razor Leaf}} she got from {{m|Assist}} before {{m|DoubleSlap}}ping the leaves to shower the stage in sparkling crystal. With that, they all were able to advance to the [[Contest Battle]]s, which took place in [[AG116|the following episode]].

The first match of the second round put Jessie against Erica. The battle ended rather quickly as Jessie was disqualified for cheating, giving Erica a free pass to the Contest finals. The battle between May and Joshua, on the other hand, was a hard fought one. It ended with an explosion caused by the clash of May's Skitty's Blizzard and Joshua's Houndoom's {{m|Flamethrower}}. Having won this battle, May advanced to the final round, where she faced Erica. She had a little trouble dealing with Jynx's {{m|Psychic}} attack, but got the win after Skitty's Assist became {{m|Fire Spin}} and knocked Jynx out. This victory gave May her fifth Contest Ribbon, allowing her to enter the [[Hoenn Grand Festival]].

==In the manga==

===In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga===
In the {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}}, {{adv|Wally}} was revealed to have traveled to Pacifidlog Town to obtain a more effective cure for his health problems. He was informed of the place by the old resident that looks out for {{gdis|Mirage Island|III}} every day. After {{adv|Kyogre}} and {{adv|Groudon}} had awakened, both Wally and the old man evacuated the unstable floating settlement using the two lifeboats that were stationed.

The old Mirage Island watcher's name is never explicitly stated in the manga. However, in ''[[PS258|Rayquaza Redemption I]]'' Scott makes a reference to '''Mr. Gemu''' (Japanese: ゲムじーさん), which is commonly believed to be the old man's name in the Japanese fandom. [[Chuang Yi]]'s English translation removes the reference, while in the [[Serebii.net]] contributor [[Coronis]]' summary of the manga, he is referred to as '''Ghem''', based on his supposed Japanese name.

==Trivia==
* There is a possibility that Pacifidlog's concept was inspired by the [[Pokédex]] entry for {{p|Corsola}} in {{game3|Gold and Silver|Pokémon Silver|s}}, which states that, in a south sea nation, the people live in communities that are built on groups of these Pokémon. Despite this, Corsola cannot be encountered here. Instead, an NPC Trainer in {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}} and {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}} will [[trade]] a Corsola for a {{p|Bellossom}}.
* In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, when played in English, the old man in the southwestern house says "One does not simply walk into a [[Mirage spot]]." This is a reference to the line and meme "One does not simply walk into Mordor," from the film ''{{wp|The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring}}''.

== Burmy ==

I should've explained myself better, but that's quite hard in the edit box! My intention was not "wormy" as in "worm-like", but as in "infested with and home of a worm". Wormy could also mean weak and untrustworthy (as in Burmy being the first stage of evolution, and weak), but I imagine it as in Burmy burrowing into nearby materials to create a cloak. I will to defer to you though, as I do not intend an edit war, and these name origin sections are quite subjective also, so my opinion does not automatically trump yours.
While we are at it though, do you know what is meant by "brr" or "burr"? I imagine "brr" is because it wears a cloak so that it doesn't get cold, but that might be stretching the name origin thing. As for "burr", I don't know... it is not made of metal, and as far as I can tell, it is not known to stick to passersby, like the velcro burdock plant. With that one I feel like I'm missing something... -[[User:Uncleben85|Uncleben85]] ([[User talk:Uncleben85|talk]]) 06:28, 5 February 2017 (UTC)
:I'm not really convinced by either "infested with worms," "home of a worm," or "weak and untrustworthy." I prefer to err on the side of excluding tenuous origins. For that matter, I don't really like "brr" or "burr" either, so I wouldn't argue if you wanted to get rid of them — I left them mostly out of inertia. As for what's meant by them, the talk page has some discussion, [[Talk:Burmy#Brr, Bur and Burr|including in this section]]. I don't find the arguments there very convincing, but it is what it is. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 07:05, 5 February 2017 (UTC)
::Thanks Pumpkinking. I'll make a section on the Talk page and see what sort of consensus there is. -[[User:Uncleben85|Uncleben85]] ([[User talk:Uncleben85|talk]]) 07:11, 5 February 2017 (UTC)

== Replied ==

No disruption intended. I left a response on the page to reach consensus. [[User:RubyLeafGreenCrystal|RubyLeafGreenCrystal]] ([[User talk:RubyLeafGreenCrystal|talk]]) 01:33, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

::Thanks for being understanding and discussing. I should clear things up, though: I'm not a {{bp|staff|staff member}}, so if you want an end-all be-all final answer, I'm not the person to approach.

== Controversy ==

What do you mean do your own research. You can't just say that of course it needs sourcing.[[User:Sly Fox|Sly Fox]] ([[User talk:Sly Fox|talk]]) 17:56, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
:Bulbapedia is a wiki about Pokemon-related topics. If you want stringent sourcing about swastikas, you can go to the Wikipedia page for {{wp|swastika}}s and look at those sources. It's not part of our purview. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 18:05, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

== Just letting you know... ==

According to [[User:Force_Fire/Trivia_Policy/Species|trivia policy]], ties are notable, as long as there are only two Pokemon involved in the tie. --[[User:Celadonkey|Celad]][[User_talk:Celadonkey|onkey]] 19:59, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
:I didn't see that and I don't know when it was changed, but it used to be that ties flat-out disqualified a point. I disagree with the change. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 20:03, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
::That's fine that you disagree with the change, but that's how it is. I'm putting the trivia about Mew and Muk that Thorin added back up. --[[User:Celadonkey|Celad]][[User_talk:Celadonkey|onkey]] 20:06, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

== Heatmor ==

I am pretty sure that images, depictions, and/or pictures do count as minor appearances. In Mew's page, two minor appearances are images. One appearance is a picture of Mew in a magazine, and another appearance is an image of Mew on a computer screen. I think the appearance of Heatmor as a picture does count if Mew's picture appearances count as well. {{unsigned|RedHailfire}}

== Comprised of ==

FYI, this has been discussed. For example, [[User talk:Ratchet and Clank 1995#Comprised of]]. I don't know if you ever noticed. But the wording you're "fixing" is exactly what was deemed OK. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 15:44, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
:What was agreed was flat-out wrong. See, for example, [http://grammarist.com/usage/compose-comprise/ here], [http://www.quickanddirtytips.com/education/grammar/comprise-versus-compose here], or [http://www.businesswritingblog.com/business_writing/2015/01/comprised-of-vs-composed-of-a-test.html here], which generally agree that although the "comprised of" usage is prevalent, it's not correct and should be avoided by writers who know the difference. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 15:52, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
::At best, though, I think it is a difference that has been much mixed up. If you have to be "careful", that just sounds like {{wp|Linguistic prescription|prescriptivism}} to me, which I don't generally have a lot of patience for. Language evolves. There are some things where you can draw a clear enough right and wrong; but that's not this. It was previously decided that, for BP, it would be okay, so unless you want to appeal that and hope for a reversal, that's what we'll stick by. I'll intend to undo your edits in the near future on that basis. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 16:03, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
:::Prescriptivism is how respected sources remain respected. I'm all for descriptivism in casual use, but books, newspapers, ''encyclopedias'', etc. need to be prescriptive if they want to be seen as authorities. People don't respect the content itself when the presentation has errors.
:::And yes, I absolutely want to appeal the ruling. Based on that talk discussion, it looks like you and Force Fire decided what you decided before any discussion had occurred, so I strongly feel the ruling wasn't properly arrived at. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 16:13, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
::::When prescriptivist thinking gets you people who think that something like "up with which I will not put" is 'good', I can't honestly respect it overall. There are a lot of "prescriptions" that can just get in the way of effective writing.
::::You may know it, but if you want to appeal it, you should pick someone on {{bp|staff}} at a higher rank than Force Fire and bring the issue up to them. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 16:30, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
:::::Way to put words in my mouth. "Comprises" and "up with which I will not put" are orders of magnitude in difference, and I never argued anything resembling approval of the latter. Good job shutting down discussion by creating a strawman. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 16:36, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
:::::I've notified SnorlaxMonster on his talk page asking for mediation. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 16:42, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
::::::You said that following prescriptivism makes something respected. I explained why I don't respect prescriptivism. Yeah, it's a big difference. But I wasn't comparing or contrasting. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 17:01, 1 March 2017 (UTC)

{{indent}}Just to be clear, I am absolutely fine with people wanting to replace "comprised of" '''if''' they are changing the whole paragraph or sentence. If they are changing solely to remove "comprised of" (like Ratchet), then that's a problem. "Comprised of" is acceptable and is not a grammar error.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 05:47, 2 March 2017 (UTC)

== "Skarmpexey" ==
Remember that "Skarmpexey" thing I added to the Metagame terminology page and you deleted it because I was "an unreliable source of information"? Well, I actually got that straight from the Mudsdale's mouth, excuse my pun. That info actually came from Nintendo itself (from the PGL page). See here:
"Another of the top teams featured a very defensive strategy, but stop us if you’ve heard this one already. You may remember one of the top teams in the Battle of Alola included the combination of Skarmory, Toxapex, and Blissey. In the Battle of Alola, the same Trainer once again finished near the top of the field, this time combining Skarmory, Toxapex, and Blissey’s previous evolution, Chansey. While none of these Pokémon are heavy hitters, they could slowly deal damage with Toxic, Toxic Spikes, and Stealth Rock while using Recover, Roost, and Soft-Boiled to stay healthy. These Pokémon were joined by a Tapu Bulu that knew both Leech Seed and Substitute, a tricky Pokémon to take down for opponents using similarly defensive teams."
(Nintendo, PGL. "A Look Back at the Alola Friendly.")
So it basically is a SkarmBliss setup with a Toxapex with Recover combined with a Subseeder Tapu Bulu. ([[User:PlatinumPokenut|PlatinumPokenut]] ([[User talk:PlatinumPokenut|talk]]) 13:32, 5 March 2017 (UTC))

'''Nihilego''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ウツロイド''' ''Utsuroido'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Poison}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VII]].

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

It is one of the [[Ultra Beast]]s and is known by code name '''UB-01 Symbiont''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|ＵＢ０１　Ｐａｒａｓｉｔｅ|ユービーゼロイチパラサイト}}''').

==Biology==
Nihilego is an Ultra Beast which resembles a jellyfish. It is mostly white and has tentacles shaped like the hair, dress, and legs of a girl. The top of its head is a bell that resembles a sun hat. The bell is transparent save for six pointed stars around the crown, and the brim has a blue edge. The ends of the "hair" fly out, resembling arms, and the outer tentacles of the "dress" have two bubbles inside.

Nihilego is a parasitic organism, capable of injecting a neurotoxin that subtly alters the thoughts and actions of any human or Pokémon that becomes its host. This neurotoxin stimulates intense feelings of excitement while causing a loss of inhibitions, which acts to forcibly bring out any latent potential within the host while wearing away at their minds.

Nihilego's exact levels of intelligence are unknown, but according to the [[Aether Foundation]]'s research it seems to act mainly on a self-preservation instinct. It has been observed behaving like a young girl, though the exact reasons for why it does so are unknown.

[[File:Sun Moon Lusamine Nihilego fused.png|thumb|left|200px|Nihilego fused with Lusamine]]
As shown with [[Lusamine]], Nihilego is capable of physically merging with a host. In this "merged" state, the bell loses its stars, developing several iridescent spots across its surface; the host's body is visible within the bell, with their legs dangling beneath it. Its eight tentacles become long and flattened in appearance, and what appear to be eyeballs with colored diamond-shaped "pupils" cover their surface, along with smaller multi-colored dots. Four of the tentacles are connected to the "hat" via frilly white structures; these tentacles have four spines protruding from them that can be used similarly to hands. The remaining four tentacles each terminate in a single smaller spine. While this merger can be disrupted, the lingering toxins and the shock of the separation are likely to leave the host in critical condition, both physically and psychologically.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Nihilego. It is the only [[Ultra Beast]] to have a unique type combination.
* Nihilego is the only genderless {{type|Poison}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Nihilego may be inspired by a {{wp|jellyfish}}, especially ''{{wp|Aurelia aurita}}''. It may also draw inspiration from {{wp|Myxozoa}}, a class of microscopic Cnidarian parasites, particularly the ''{{wp|Myxobolus cerebralis}}'' that are known to infect "whirling disease" in various fish species. The disease causes the fish to develop bone and neurological abnormalities that cause them to swim in a corkscrew-like "whirling" motion. It could also draw some design from [[Lillie]] due to its "sunhat" being similar to Lillie's.

The merged form of Lusamine and Nihilego may be based on {{wp|Turritopsis dohrnii}}, a species of jellyfish that is biologically immortal and can revert to a young, immature state if it is too old or stressed.

====Name origin====
Nihilego may be a combination of ''nihil'' (Latin for indefinite nothing) and ''ego'' (Latin for I), which together roughly translates to "I am nothing" or "I have nothing"; or ''{{wp|Id, ego and super-ego|ego}}''. In either case, it serves as a reflection of Nihilego's ability to enslave its hosts.

Utsuroido may be a combination of 虚ろ ''utsuro'' (void), ''void'', and ''{{wp|Id, ego and super-ego#Id|id}}''. It also might refer to 鬱 ''utsu'' ({{wp|depression|depression}}), 移ろい ''utsuroi'' (the act of moving from host to host), and android or the suffix ''{{wp|wikt:-oid|-oid}}'' (meaning "of similar form").

'''Splash''' (Japanese: '''はねる''' ''Hop'') is a non-damaging {{type|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. Prior to [[Generation II]], it was the [[signature move]] of {{p|Magikarp}}.

==Effect==
===Generation I===
Splash has no effect whatsoever. After the player selects the move, the game will simply show a dipping animation and then the message, "No effect!"

===Generation II===
Splash's message was changed to "But nothing happened."

===Generation III onwards===
Splash's message was altered to "But nothing happened!"

Splash cannot be used while {{m|Gravity}} is in effect.

If powered up by a {{DL|Z-Crystal|Normalium Z}} into Z-Splash, the user's {{stat|Attack}} stat raises three stages.

If the user comes into contact with another Pokémon, both Pokémon receive 5 damage and the user returns to the tile it used the move from.

In {{g|Super Mystery Dungeon}}, the users jumps over the Pokémon or group of Pokémon directly in front of it, moving to the tile on the other side of said Pokémon.

===[[Pokémon Conquest]]===
Splash does nothing but show an animation. The user can choose which direction to perform it in, which will leave the user facing that direction after Splash is performed.

==Trivia==
* While its English name suggests an association with water, its Japanese name, はねる ''haneru'', can mean both ''splash'' and ''hop'', but usually the latter. This explains why the move can be learned by Pokémon such as {{p|Spoink}} and {{p|Hoppip}}—species who have no association with water but are known for hopping or jumping—and why it is disabled by {{m|Gravity}}. Its somewhat misleading English name is likely due to its initial exclusivity to {{p|Magikarp}}.
* In the anime, Splash is the most common result of {{m|Metronome}}.
* Splash and the event-exclusive moves {{m|Celebrate}} and {{m|Hold Hands}} are the only moves in the core series Pokémon games that have no effect whatsoever.
* Splash is the only obtainable move in [[Pokémon GO]] to have a different type than in the [[core series]] games.
* Splash is always learned at level 1.

'''Regenerator''' (Japanese: '''さいせいりょく''' ''Regeneration'') is an [[Ability]] introduced in [[Generation V]].

==Effect==
===In battle===

===Outside of battle===
Regenerator has no effect outside of battle.
