Pokérap GS

2022-02-18T19:04:34Z

PokeWizardCali: /* Trivia */ Contributing some useful trivia about which types of images were used, to go along with the similar trivia piece in the Kanto Pokerap.

'''Pokérap GS''', also known as '''Johto Pokérap''', was the second [[Pokérap]] to be made by [[4Kids Entertainment]] for the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was made to feature 99 of the 100 {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}}, the exception being {{p|Celebi}}. It is available on the [[Totally Pokémon]] CD, as well as the {{OBP|Pokémon X|CD}} CD. It was one of the four ringtones available on the [[Pokémon Mobile]] service.

A short version of the song was used as the opening theme of [[Pokémon Chronicles]], and was credited as '''Pokémon Chronicles Theme''' by Joe Garrity, [[John Loeffler]], and [[John Siegler]]. However, the [[Pokémon Chronicles theme]] was used in all [[Pokémon in the United States|Toonami Jetstream]] airings of said series instead.

The full version of the Pokérap was aired once on {{DL|Pokémon in the United States|Kids' WB!}} when ''[[EP152|Hot Matches!]]'' first premiered. The full version can be found on the ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown: Entei]]'' DVD as a bonus.

==Trivia==
[[File:Porygon2 anime.png|200px|thumb|Porygon2 in the Pokérap GS]]
* The credits included with the Pokérap GS as a bonus feature on the ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown: Entei]]'' DVD release say "... and will be added to the end of Season 4 TV episodes ...", which means that it was originally planned to be included with TV airings of [[S04|the fourth season]] of the {{pkmn|anime}}.
* The Pokérap GS marks the only post-[[EP038]] appearance of {{p|Porygon2}} in the {{pkmn|anime}} before ''[[M15|Kyurem VS. The Sword of Justice]]''.
* While {{p|Celebi}} was omitted, the space where the lyrics say "Pokémon!" instead of something rhyming with {{p|Togepi}} implies this is where it was meant to be placed.
* If one was to rearrange the Pokérap so all of the Pokémon are in National Pokédex order, {{p|Espeon}} and {{p|Remoraid}} would remain in their positions in the song.
* 30 of the 99 images used when the Pokémon names were said were from episode or movie (in the case of Slowking and Lugia) scenes, the rest were stock art. The most notable omission of an anime clip in lieu of stock art is Togepi, who at the time had featured in nearly every episode since its [[EP050|debut]], 67 episodes before the Johto saga began.

===Errors===
* {{p|Tyrogue}} is spelled as ''Tyrouge''.

==Blurb==


In Pallet Town, a young Ash Ketchum is beside himself with anticipation—he’s going to Professor Oak’s Pokémon Camp! But when the day arrives, he oversleeps, and Professor Oak and the other campers leave without him. Two of the young campers, Goh and Chloe, become separated from the group and encounter the Mythical Pokémon Mew—and Goh vows to catch it someday!

Meanwhile, a once-lonely Pichu is spending its days with a group of friendly Kangaskhan, but when the time comes for it to set off on its own, it suddenly evolves into Pikachu! After some time, Pikachu ends up at Professor Oak’s lab…and the rest is history!

==Plot==
Four years prior to when he began his [[Pokémon journey]], a six-year-old {{Ash}} rushes downstairs to show {{Delia|his mother}} a poster advertising {{an|Professor Oak}}'s Pokémon camp. Seeing her son's enthusiasm, Delia agrees to sign him up, but she admits he will have to get himself up since she will be busy that morning. However, Ash is too excited to listen. Meanwhile, in the forested outskirts of [[Pallet Town]], a young {{p|Pichu}} observes his surroundings before being attacked by a {{p|Ekans}}, though Pichu uses {{m|Thunder Shock}} to defend himself. Ekans slithers away, while the electrical discharge leaves Pichu exhausted.

Pichu quickly recovers and notices, unlike all the other [[wild Pokémon]], that he is alone. Just then, a group of {{p|Koffing}} floats by and unleashes an odor, leaving Pichu so disoriented that he falls over a cliff. However, he is caught by a {{p|Kangaskhan}}. Pichu is initially frightened by the large Kangaskhan mother, but he quickly takes a liking to her and her child. As the Kangaskhan herd prepares to leave, the mother places Pichu in her pouch. The herd later stops by some [[Oran Berry]] trees to eat, with both the Kangaskhan baby and Pichu each getting a Berry to enjoy. Having finally found a place where he belongs, Pichu continues to live with the Kangaskhan.

Several weeks later, Professor Oak's camp begins. While many of the attendees, including [[Chloe]] and her friend [[Goh]], have arrived on time, Ash is still sleeping as he broke his alarm clock in his excitement. Since Goh and Chloe are eager to begin their field trip, Professor Oak decides to set off without Ash. Ash eventually wakes up, and in a panic, he rushes out of the house while still in his pajamas, desperate to make it to the lab before everyone leaves. During the trip, the kids and Oak observe a young {{pkmn|Trainer}} {{pkmn2|caught|catching}} herself a {{p|Caterpie}}. Throughout the day, Goh continues to show off his Pokémon knowledge, identifying every Pokémon in sight and reciting facts about them. While the other kids are impressed, Chloe orders Goh to allow Professor Oak to do the talking instead. However, Goh continues to provide his input, even correcting Oak on his statement that all Pokémon evolve.

While Oak leads the group over a bridge, Goh and Chloe lag behind. Chloe tells Goh that he should focus on making friends instead, but Goh insists that he wants to find a rare and never-before-seen Pokémon. Chloe dismisses Goh's ambition as a dream, but Goh asserts that it is the future. The [[cry]] of a {{p|Nidoking}} attracts their attention, and Goh hones in on Nidoking's opponent, a {{OBP|Mew|recurring}}. Nidoking uses {{m|Earth Power}}, but Mew simply {{m|Teleport}}s to evade. Mew replies with the same [[move]], which easily hits the Nidoking. As Nidoking attempts a {{m|Sludge Wave}}, Mew Teleports away again before retaliating with the same move once again. Nidoking becomes frustrated and launches a {{m|Fire Blast}} at his shifty opponent, though Mew again evades and then proceeds to defeat Nidoking with its own Fire Blast. Chloe and Goh are impressed by the mysterious Pokémon, and they give chase as it flies away. In their search, the pair come across a {{p|Magmar}}, though Mew quickly {{m|Transform}}s to its regular form to reveal itself. Mew leaves yet again with Goh and Chloe in pursuit, transforming into a {{p|Tauros}} to run across the land before changing into a {{p|Lapras}} to travel downstream.

Elsewhere, Pichu continues to enjoy his time with the Kangaskhan family. He plays a game of hide-and-seek, but is quickly spotted by the Kangaskhan baby, ending the round. While searching for Pichu again, the young Kangaskhan spots a Lapras as it cruises down the river. Lapras reveals itself to be Mew, who quickly takes interest in the Kangaskhan baby. Mew overhears Goh and Chloe’s voices and flies away, though the Kangaskhan baby scales some ledges to follow its mysterious encounter. Meanwhile, the Kangaskhan mothers call their babies out for a {{p|Chansey}} egg meal. Pichu and the Kangaskhan mother soon notice the infant's absence and begin to search for it. The search party makes their way over to the stream, where they overhear the young Kangaskhan's cries. While chasing after Mew, the ledge underfoot gives way, sending the young Kangaskhan hurtling towards the water below. Chloe and Goh stop as they hear the young one's screams. Mew turns back and promptly uses {{m|Psychic}} to save the Kangaskhan baby from harm, and returning her to her mother’s arms. With the family united, Mew soars away. Afterwards, Professor Oak rushes towards the two kids, relieved to have finally found them. While returning to the rest of the group, Oak speculates they encountered a Mew, a [[Mythical Pokémon]] believed to contain the genes of all Pokémon. Hearing this, Goh sets his sights on catching Mew one day. Ash, meanwhile, sits on his bed at home, miserable at having missed the camp entirely.

Some time passes, and both Pichu and the Kangaskhan baby have grown. The Kangaskhan herd seeks refuge from a rainstorm in a cave, but Pichu notices his adoptive mother is having trouble carrying both of them at once now. He tries to jump out to lighten her load, but the mother Kangaskhan picks him back up. As night falls, Pichu knows it is time to move on. While the Kangaskhan are fast asleep, Pichu leaves his adoptive mother's pouch, takes a moment to observe his family as they sleep, and tearfully ventures outside. Grateful for their kindness and company, Pichu suddenly [[Evolution|evolves]] into a {{AP|Pikachu}}. Looking in a nearby puddle, Pikachu is initially startled by his reflection before twirling around in excitement. Pikachu waves goodbye to his adoptive family and departs.

[[EP001|Years later]], Professor Oak gives this very Pikachu to Ash, who is now an aspiring young Trainer. Pikachu, however, isn't happy with Ash's enthusiasm and shocks him with Thunder Shock. However, as time passes, Ash and Pikachu become close friends. In the present day [[Vermilion City]], Goh is pumped up to realize his dream.

==Trivia==
[[File:JN001 illustration.png|175px|thumb|An illustration of {{AP|Pikachu}} as a {{p|Pichu}} by [[Atsuko Nishida]]]]
* An [[a:File:JN001 illustration.png|illustration]] of this episode was drawn by [[Atsuko Nishida]].
* This is the first episode to air in Japan after the release of [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]].
* This episode serves as a prequel to the [[original series]].
* This is the first episode of a new [[series]] that does not showcase a new {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} or [[region]].
* This marks the first time in the {{pkmn|anime}} where {{Ash}} is voiced by someone other than [[Rica Matsumoto]] in the Japanese version.
* This episode marks the first appearance of a number of Pokémon species in the main series after long absences:
** {{p|Kakuna}}, who last appeared in ''[[BW124|Danger, Sweet as Honey!]]'', 305 episodes ago.
** {{p|Nidoking}}, who last appeared in ''[[BW135|Mystery on a Deserted Island!]]'', 294 episodes ago.
** {{p|Dodrio}}, who last appeared in ''[[XY094|From A to Z!]]'', 193 episodes ago.
** {{p|Beedrill}}, who last appeared in ''[[XY104|A Windswept Encounter!]]'', 183 episodes ago.
** A regular {{p|Diglett}}, who last appeared in ''[[XY117|Making Friends and Influencing Villains!]]'', 170 episodes ago.
** {{p|Weedle}} and a regular {{p|Rattata}}, both of whom last appeared in ''[[XY121|Seeing the Forest for the Trees!]]'', 166 episodes ago.
** {{p|Farfetch'd}}, who last appeared in ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]'', 151 episodes ago.
* [[One, Two, Three]] replaced [[Your Adventure]] as the [[List of Japanese opening themes|Japanese opening theme]].
* This is the season premiere of [[S23|Pokémon Journeys: The Series]], and [[The Journey Starts Today]] replaces [[The Challenge of Life]] as the English opening.
* This is the first episode to be dubbed by [[Iyuno Media Group]], taking over from [[DuArt Media Services]].
* This is the first episode to premiere on [[Netflix]] in {{pmin|the United States}}.
** It is also the first episode to begin with an epilepsy warning outside of Japan. Previously, epilepsy warnings have been broadcasted in the original Japanese versions of episodes since [[EP038]].
* [[Megan Hollingshead]] returns to voicing characters for the English [[dub]].
* [[Professor Cerise]], Ash, several {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, [[Goh]], and {{AP|Pikachu}} narrate the preview for the [[JN002|next episode]].
* This episode was uploaded to YouTube on July 13, 2020 by Pokémon's official YouTube channel, making it the first time a full episode was uploaded there.
* Pichu is attacked by an {{p|Ekans}} and {{p|Koffing}}, both species that once belonged to [[Jessie]] and [[James]], respectively.

===Errors===
* When Professor Oak is describing Pikachu, his mouth stops moving before his dialogue is completed.
* When [[Ash's Pikachu|Pichu]] notices the baby Kangaskhan on a cliff, his tail is incorrectly colored yellow instead of black.

===Dub edits===
* The opening theme is played and the title card is shown after Pichu meets Kangaskhan rather than at the end of the episode. The opening credits are therefore no longer shown over the beginning of the episode.
* The post-credits scenes featuring [[Chloe]] and [[Goh]] are moved before the ending credits.
* Beginning with this episode, the "To Be Continued" text at the end is removed. The version of the episode on [[Pokémon TV]] and the official Pokémon YouTube channel for the United States retain the text, however.
* The original title card music is replaced with dub music; the version of the episode on Pokémon TV and the official Pokémon YouTube channel for the United States retain the original title card music, however.
* Beginning with this episode, the English dub title card design is based on the title card originally used during the previews for the next episodes. On Netflix, the original title card design is used to label the show as a Netflix Original Series at the start of the episode.
* In the {{pmin|Brazil|Brazilian Portuguese}} dub, the [[narrator]] says "So let's go! As the journey continues!" at the end of the episode. In the English dub, he just says "As the journey continues!".

List of cross-generational references

2020-10-31T05:03:27Z

PokeWizardCali: /* To Generation I */ adding context

{{fan speculation}}
<div style="clear: right; float:right">__TOC__</div>
The eight [[generation]]s of [[Pokémon games]], taking place in the same {{pkmn|world|universe}}, have had multiple references to each other. Not only do the games reference their same-generation counterparts (with the {{player}}'s default name being the version played and the [[rival]]'s being the counterpart version in the first two generations), but games released later in the series typically will feature references to events of past generations.

This does not include Pokémon. While Pokémon released in previous generations will always appear, they are not a reference to the generation itself.

==List of references==
===Generation II===
====To Generation I====
* Not only is the [[Kanto]] region a playable area during the games, but several of the events of [[Generation I]] are spoken of as having happened three years prior. Many characters also reappear because of this, though some of them undergo design changes.
* {{ga|Red}}, the [[player character]] of the first games, is found training in [[Mt. Silver]] and can be battled.
* {{ga|Blue}}, the rival character of the first games, has become the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Viridian City]]. His team is based on the Pokémon he used in the final battle in {{game|Red and Blue|s}}.
* A man in the [[Violet City]] Pokémon Center states that the former [[Team Rocket]] was broken up by a "{{ga|Red|young kid}}."
* The parents of the {{OBP|Copycat|character}} in [[Saffron City]] mention that her Clefairy Doll was given to her by {{ga|Red|a boy}} three years before.
* The [[Berserk Gene]], a held item, is found near the former entrance of the now-collapsed Cerulean Cave, where {{p|Mewtwo}} once hid.
* There is a [[Pokémon doll]] of a {{DL|Pikachu variants|Surfing Pikachu}} available to decorate the room, which references the special minigame in {{game|Yellow}}.
* A man in [[Cerulean City]] says there used to be [[Cerulean Cave|a cave near the city with powerful Pokémon]].
* If the player checks the poster in the [[Celadon Game Corner|Rocket Game Corner]], the player will be informed that there's nothing there, referring to the secret switch under the poster in Generation I.
* The master of the Saffron City [[Fighting Dojo]], [[Kiyo]], can be found and battled in [[Mt. Mortar]]. Like in Generation I, he gives the player a {{p|Tyrogue|Fighting-type Pokémon}} upon defeating him.
* In a [[Celadon City]] restaurant, a woman says that no one will give the player a [[Coin Case]] here and that they should look in [[Johto]]. A man in the same place gives a Coin Case in Generation I.

===Generation III===
====To Generation I====
* [[Brawly]] is said to have once trained alongside [[Bruno]], who is a member of [[Kanto]]'s [[Elite Four]]. Also, both of them are {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon users.
* The [[Oceanic Museum]] in [[Slateport City]] has two water samples on the top floor, one of which is from Kanto (though this reference is removed in Emerald). Its background music theme is also an arrangement of the [[S.S. Anne]] theme.
** There is also a miniature scale model of the [[S.S. Anne]] on the top floor of the Oceanic Museum.
* In [[Lanette]]'s house, there is a computer displaying e-mails from [[Bill]] about the [[Pokémon Storage System]].
* On [[Faraway Island]], a series of smudged messages, which may have been left by [[Mr. Fuji]], appear on a [[signpost]].
* A boy in [[Lilycove City]] says that he and his family came from the Kanto region before he asks if there are any Pokémon found only in the [[Hoenn]] region.
* In the {{ka|Victory Road}} in Kanto, there is a small crater where {{p|Moltres}} used to be.

====To Generation II====
* In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, the [[player character]] is said to have moved at the beginning of the game with their family from the [[Johto]] region, the main setting of the Generation II games. In {{game|Emerald}}, the character who said this instead states that the player character's family moved there from a faraway place.
* The [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire beta|internal data of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire]] contains remastered versions of the themes played on [[Route]]s [[Johto Route 38|38]] and [[Johto Route 39|39]], [[Team Rocket]] encounter, [[Legendary beasts]]' battle, and [[Saffron City]].
* The [[Oceanic Museum]] in [[Slateport City]] has two water samples, one of which is from Johto (though this reference is removed in Emerald).
* A man in [[Mt. Moon]] says that [[Brock]] sometimes helps excavate [[Fossil]]s there. This explains how he acquires the {{p|Kabutops}} and {{p|Omastar}} which he uses in Generation II.
* At the [[Kanto Route 25|Cerulean Cape]], a dame says [[Misty]] has high hopes about the location, which is known as a famous dating spot. In the Generation II games, she is first encountered there with an unknown male character.
* [[Janine]], [[Koga]]'s daughter and future [[Gym Leader|Leader]] of [[Fuchsia Gym]], appears in [[Fuchsia City]], and tells the player that she is training to use {{t|Poison}} Pokémon like her father. She is misnamed as Charine in the English translation of Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, however.
* The branch of Team Rocket in the [[Sevii Islands]] seems to be the same branch which attempted to revive Team Rocket during Generation II, with plans to use magnetic waves to evolve Pokémon. Their [[Gideon|lead scientist]] also claims that [[Giovanni]]'s child has red hair, a reference to {{ga|Silver}}.
* One of [[Professor Oak]]'s assistants will state that he is to get a [[Professor Oak's Pokémon Talk|radio show]] sometime in the near future.
* [[Celio]] mentions that some members of [[Bill]]'s family live in [[Goldenrod City]].
* A woman on [[Two Island]] in [[Bruno]]'s section of the [[Fame Checker]] mentions the [[Rage Candy Bar|RageCandyBar]].
* A child in [[Indigo Plateau]] in [[Lance]]'s section of the [[Fame Checker]] says he has a [[Clair|cousin who is a Gym Leader]] [[Blackthorn City|somewhere far away]].
* [[Whitney]], [[Jasmine]] and [[Pryce]] lookalikes appear as audience members in [[Pokémon Contest]]s.
* The man who digs [[Three Isle Path]] and gives the player a [[Nugget]] says that he'd like to buy a house in [[Kanto]]. He may be the same person who gives away a Nugget in Generation II in his house on {{rt|2|Kanto}}.
* The themes used on the [[Sevii Islands]] are remastered versions of the routes around [[Mahogany Town]] as well as remastered versions of {{ci|Violet}}/[[Olivine City]] and [[Azalea Town]]/[[Blackthorn City]].
* In [[Mt. Battle]], there is an {{p|Abra}} that can {{m|Teleport}} players to the entrance every 10 battles. In the Generation II games, the player can use an Abra at Indigo Plateau to Teleport [[New Bark Town|home]].

===Generation IV===
====To Generation I====
* [[Professor Rowan]] is said to have developed the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] with help from [[Professor Oak|a Pokémon Professor from Kanto]].
* Professor Oak himself comes to [[Sinnoh]] to give the {{player}} the [[National Pokédex]], and can always be found in a house in [[Eterna City]] thereafter. He gives the player an [[Upgrade|Up-Grade]], which was sent to Oak by his acquaintance from [[Kanto]].
* In the [[gate]] east of [[Canalave City]] is a guard who complains that he is thirsty, like the guards in Kanto who will allow the player to enter [[Saffron City]] if they are brought a drink. Unlike those guards, however, this one does not do anything if brought a drink.
* One of the [[Elite Four]], [[Bertha]], shares a similar name (in Japanese and English) and design to [[Agatha]]. It is possible they are related, or that Bertha was at least modeled after Agatha.
* {{tc|Black Belt}} Eddie from {{si|Victory Road}} mentions that he trained at the [[Fighting Dojo]] in Saffron City.
* In [[Amity Square]], some Pokémon may be let out of their [[Poké Ball]]s to follow their {{pkmn|Trainer}} around. One of the few available is {{p|Pikachu}}, which did the same (however, throughout the game) in {{game|Yellow}}.
* [[Bebe]]'s friend [[Bill]] is mentioned to have developed the basic storage system.
* Part of the [[Veilstone Game Corner]] music theme is a techno remix of the Rocket Game Corner music theme.
* One of {{ga|Lucas}}'s alternate names was Ash in the English versions of {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}. This is one of the default names of {{ga|Red}} in the games {{5v2|Red|Blue|Yellow|FireRed|LeafGreen}}. It may even be a reference to the {{pkmn|anime}}'s [[Ash Ketchum|main character]].
[[File:Nostalgic Wallpaper.png|thumb|The wallpaper]]
* As a direct tribute to the original games, one of the wallpapers has been designed to resemble the design of the [[route]]s of the first games, complete with the graphics and sprites when the games are played on the [[Game Boy]]. The wallpaper showcases typical features like both types of fences, low and high [[Tall grass|grass]], normal ground, a [[signpost]] and a house.
* When visiting the [[Villa]], [[Roark]] wonders if he could make [[the Underground]] extend to Kanto and [[Johto]].
* As {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} are remakes of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, the references present in the original games to Generation I return.
* During a special {{p|Celebi}} event, the player will, in fact, travel in time back to shortly after Red has defeated [[Giovanni]]. Giovanni tells his {{ga|Silver|son}} that he has decided to disband [[Team Rocket]]. Afterwards, he will run towards the Johto region and is found in a cave. When the player defeats him, he will make a remark that the player reminds him of {{ga|Red|the boy that made him disband}} the team in the first place.
* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, a man mentions that [[Professor Oak]] once said there were 150 Pokémon, the amount known during Generation I, although there are now over 400 (which appears to imply that all the games, or at least the remakes, take place at the same time as Generation IV).

====To Generation II====
* A news report of a [[red Gyarados]] begins {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}. The cameraman who filmed the documentary appears at the [[Survival Area]].
** In {{game|Platinum}}, the game instead begins with a report about Professor Rowan. However, the cameraman from the red Gyarados report is seen blocking the entrance to [[Lake Valor]], hoping to get a shot of the {{p|Azelf|Legendary Pokémon}} said to live there.
* A man, who gives the {{player}} a {{p|Happiny}} {{pkmn|Egg}} in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, says that [[Professor Elm]] announced that Eggs kept [[party|with a Trainer]] will eventually hatch.
* [[Jasmine]], one of [[Johto]]'s [[Gym Leader]]s, appears to give the player {{HM|07|Waterfall}} and participates in [[Sinnoh]]'s [[Pokémon Super Contest]]s.
* A man in [[Valor Lakefront]] states that he would like to see a {{p|Lugia|silver-colored Pokémon}} that resides in the [[Whirl Islands]], a {{p|Ho-Oh|rainbow-colored Pokémon}} that resides in the [[Bell Tower|Tin Tower]], and {{p|Clefairy}} [[Days of the week#Monday|dancing]] in [[Mt. Moon]] sometime during his life.
* A {{tc|Ninja Boy}} on {{rt|210|Sinnoh}} near [[Celestic Town]] says he wants to train with a [[Janine|ninja Gym Leader]] in a [[Kanto|faraway land]].
* {{tc|Dragon Tamer}} Hayden on {{rt|224|Sinnoh}} mentions that he left the [[Dragon's Den]] several years ago.
* The [[Poké Ball]] design on the floor of the Sinnoh Pokémon Centers is colored {{game|Gold and Silver|s|gold and silver}}. [[Park Ball]]s are also colored gold and silver, and the normally black stripe in the middle is actually a light blue, {{game|Crystal||crystal}}-like color.
* {{tc|Dragon Tamer}} Geoffrey on {{rt|225|Sinnoh}} mentions a [[Lance|Dragon Tamer Champion]].
* The {{p|Eevee}} which [[Bebe]] gives to the player was obtained originally from her [[Bill|friend]] in Johto.
* [[Cynthia]] gives the [[Secret Potion|SecretPotion]], the medicine from [[Cianwood City]] that cured [[Amphy]] in [[Generation II]], to the player to cure the group of {{p|Psyduck}} blocking {{rt|210|Sinnoh}}.
* When visiting the [[Villa]], [[Roark]] wonders if he could make [[the Underground]] extend to [[Kanto]] and Johto.
* In [[Stargazer Colosseum]] in [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]], some of the Pokémon in the last battle depend on which game is linked to the Wii. If {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s|Pokémon Diamond}} is linked, one of the Pokémon is {{p|Ho-Oh}}, Gold's [[game mascot]], and if {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s|Pokémon Pearl}} is linked, one of the Pokémon is {{p|Lugia}}, Silver's game mascot.
* When a {{Shiny}} {{p|Clefairy}} appears during a slot game in [[Veilstone Game Corner]], a remixed version of [[Mt. Moon Square]] music theme from Pokémon {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} is played.
* In {{game|Platinum}}, one of the women in the basement floor of the [[Veilstone Department Store]] mentions that the store is sold out of [[Rage Candy Bar|RageCandyBars]], the local specialty in [[Mahogany Town]].
* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the [[Gym guide]] of [[Vermilion Gym]] states that the Gym's traps were temporarily out of order, a reference to Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal.
* In the [[Pokégear]]'s description of [[Cerulean Cave]], it states that the cave had collapsed.
* A {{tc|Hiker}} in the {{rt|3|Kanto}} [[Pokémon Center]] states that the Pokémon Center didn't exist when he was climbing the mountain, which is only true in [[Generation II]].
* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the man at [[Indigo Plateau]] mentions that nobody uses his {{p|Abra}} to {{m|Teleport}} home anymore (which it used to do in Generation II) since they usually {{m|Fly}} to and from instead.

====To Generation III====
* A man in [[Hearthome City]], who says he is from the [[Hoenn]] region, will show the player to the [[Contest Hall]], a feature originally introduced in Hoenn.
* A man in [[Valor Lakefront]] states that he would like to see a rocket launch from the [[Mossdeep Space Center|Space Center]] in [[Mossdeep City]] sometime during his life.
* A woman in Valor Lakefront claims to have lost her [[Suite Key]]. If the player finds it near the [[Hotel Grand Lake]] using the {{DL|Pokétch|Dowsing Machine}}, she will offer a reward of one [[Lava Cookie]], a specialty of Hoenn, possibly implying that her home is in that region.
* A {{tc|Swimmer}} south of the Valor Lakefront says she would like to vacation in Hoenn because it has more routes on which to {{m|Surf}}.
* A woman west of [[Pastoria City]] used to work at the [[Weather Institute]] of Hoenn and will give out [[weather]]-changing [[TM]]s for [[Shard]]s.
* An old woman living at the base of [[Stark Mountain]] acts in the same way that another woman does on {{rt|111|Hoenn}} in Hoenn, insisting that the player keep healing their Pokémon with her. They both also live just north of a sandstorm-ridden desert.
* A {{tc|Swimmer}} north of [[Sunyshore City]] wishes to visit Hoenn's seas.
* A {{tc|Madame|Socialite}} in the Valor Lakefront restaurant will occasionally mention the sauce of her dish was made from spicy [[Cheri Berry|Cheri Berries]] with a Hoenn-style recipe.
* {{tc|Bird Keeper}} Audrey on {{rt|225|Sinnoh}} says she was born in Hoenn.
* A woman in the {{Gdis|Battle Tower|IV}} claims to have been from Hoenn, where another {{Gdis|Battle Tower|III}} resides. In {{game|Platinum}}, her reference could mean either the Battle Tower itself or the {{gdis|Battle Frontier|III}} that is present in Hoenn.
* A catalog in [[Rad Rickshaw]]'s Cycle Shop in [[Eterna City]] advertises the [[Acro Bike]] and [[Mach Bike]].
* In [[Stargazer Colosseum]] in {{g|Battle Revolution}}, some of the Pokémon in the last battle depend on which game is linked to the Wii. If Diamond is linked, one of the Pokémon is {{p|Kyogre}}, Sapphire's [[game mascot]], and if Pearl is linked, one of the Pokémon is {{p|Groudon}}, Ruby's game mascot.
* The fourteen [[foreign Pokédex entries]] in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} are all from the respective translated versions of {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Pokémon LeafGreen|s}}.
* In {{game|Platinum}}, the [[Adamant Orb]] and [[Lustrous Orb]] are required to summon {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}, much like the [[Red Orb]] and [[Blue Orb]] were required to summon Groudon and Kyogre.
* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, many buildings and lengths of most Routes and areas in [[Kanto]] are heavily based on [[Generation III]] Kanto rather than [[Generation II]] Kanto. Furthermore, many areas and other aspects not present in the Generation II Kanto have returned in order to resemble the Generation III Kanto more closely.
* [[Mr. Pokémon]] is said to have gotten the [[Red Orb]]{{sup/4|SS}} or [[Blue Orb]]{{sup/4|HG}} from a friend in Hoenn.
* {{Steven}}, Hoenn's former {{pkmn|Champion}}, is present in [[Vermilion City]], and will speak of [[Eon duo|a strange Hoenn-native Pokémon]] that has been reported {{pkmn2|roaming}} Kanto.
** He also appears in the [[Silph Co.]] building in [[Saffron City]] after the player defeats {{ga|Red}} and gives the player one of the Hoenn region's [[starter Pokémon]].
* When the player first encounters [[Bill]] in the [[Ecruteak City]] [[Pokémon Center]], he will mention that [[Lanette]] from Hoenn helped him develop the [[Pokémon Storage System]].
* When the player battles the [[Frontier Brain]]s in {{game|Platinum}}, a remix of {{game|Emerald}}'s Frontier Brain theme can be heard.

===Generation V===
====To Generation I====
* {{ga|Blue}}'s theme as [[Kanto]] {{pkmn|Champion}} is remixed in the final battles of official competitions.
* After a {{tc|Swimmer}} in [[Undella Bay]] is defeated, he claims he will challenge the [[Gym Leader]]s all over the world. He then asks where he can find {{type|Water}} [[Gym]]s, asking for confirmation that they're in [[Cerulean Gym|Kanto]], [[Sootopolis Gym|Hoenn]], and [[Pastoria Gym|Sinnoh]].
* A {{tc|Black Belt}} in the [[Icirrus Gym]] says that he trained in a [[Fighting Dojo]] in Kanto.
* According to one of the Plasma Grunts in [[N's Castle]], "[[Team Galactic]] and [[Team Rocket]] drew too much attention to themselves. That's why their plans were thwarted."

====To Generation II====
* [[Shauntal]] mentions the [[Silver Wing]] and the [[Rainbow Wing]] in one of her conversations at Caitlin's Villa. These are the main items used to summon {{p|Lugia}} and {{p|Ho-Oh}}, respectively.
* The lone {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}} who stole the [[Machine Part]] from the [[Kanto Power Plant]] is revealed to live in [[Unova]]. He says that while he had planned to revive [[Team Rocket]], soon after returning [[Icirrus City|home]] he fell in love and then married.
* The [[Rage Candy Bar|RageCandyBar]] returns. The wife of the ex-Team Rocket Grunt, as well as [[Professor Juniper]], gives the RageCandyBar to the player. The wife mentions that the candy is the favorite sweet of one of her husband's past coworkers in Team Rocket.
* Team Rocket's [[Goldenrod Radio Tower|Radio Tower]] takeover theme can be heard in the [[Game Freak]] headquarters in [[Castelia City]].

====To Generation III====
* A man in the [[Desert Resort]] will mention that he doesn't need [[Go-Goggles]] to go through the sandstorm there, a reference to how they were needed to do so in [[Hoenn]]. In {{game|Black and White|s 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2}}, he also mentions the [[Mirage Tower]].
* Some of the music themes, such as [[N]]'s final battle theme, the [[Team Plasma]] battle theme, and the [[Elite Four]] theme have segments of Hoenn themes in them.
* {{tc|The Riches}}, the family who offers their own battle challenge to the player, may be compared to the [[Winstrate family]] in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}.
* Returning to the former [[HM]] {{m|Dive}}, which is required to access [[Abyssal Ruins]], may be paralled with the [[underwater]] in Hoenn.
* In [[Undella Town]], two residents that reside there during the summer mention that they came from the Hoenn region for a vacation. One of them also mentions [[Steven Stone]].

* When the player obtains the [[Bicycle]], the sprite is that of Acro Bike, rather than the normal one.

====To Generation IV====
* In [[Nacrene Gym]], the book called "Sweets for Pokémon" describes [[Poffin]]s and mentions that they are made in the [[Sinnoh]] region.
* [[Caitlin]] of the [[Battle Castle]] appears as an [[Elite Four]] member in [[Unova]]. She references her prior inability to battle, and mentions the Battle Castle's presence in Sinnoh and [[Johto]].
* [[Looker]] appears in search of the [[Seven Sages]] of [[Team Plasma]]. He is absent in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, but [[Shauntal]] mentions him as part of one of the novels she is writing.
* [[Cynthia]] will meet the player at Caitlin's Villa in [[Undella Town]] after getting the [[National Pokédex]]. The player will be able to battle her in Spring and Summer.
** In addition to this, after defeating her in a battle for the first time, she will mention that the player looked like {{ga|Lucas|the}} {{ga|Dawn|Trainer}} who faced {{p|Giratina}}.
* According to one of the Plasma Grunts in [[N's Castle]], "[[Team Galactic]] and [[Team Rocket]] drew too much attention to themselves. That's why their plans were thwarted."
* Shauntal mentions the [[Distortion World]] in one of her conversations at Caitlin's Villa. She states that {{p|Giratina|the only Pokémon living in the Distortion World}} was spectacular.
* Before her rematch, Shauntal quotes a line about [[Volkner]], which comes from her novel. In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, she also mentions Volkner's [[Flint (Elite Four)|close friend]] in another line from her novel.
* A man who gives away [[Fossil]]s every day at [[Twist Mountain]] said that when the player looks carefully and digs at the walls of empty places like caves, the player will find many different kinds of items such as Fossils, a possible reference on how the player can dig up different kinds of items, especially Fossils, at the Sinnoh region's [[The Underground|underground]].

* Upon meeting Skyla for the first time, she tells Cedric, "You are talking like places like [[Kanto]] and Sinnoh are right around the corner!"

* The [[Cave of Being]] is said to be connected to Sinnoh. The music used in the cave is ''[[Pokémon Diamond & Pokémon Pearl: Super Music Collection|Lake Caverns]]'' from {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, and entering the cave after entering the [[Hall of Fame]] will cause the [[lake guardians]] to appear and fly off to various locations around Unova for the player to find and catch.

===Generation VI===
====To Generation I====
* The layout of [[Santalune Forest]] is an almost exact copy of [[Viridian Forest]].
* Several moves originating from Generation I, including {{m|Psychic}} and {{m|Hyper Beam}}, use their original sound effects.
* A man in [[Santalune City]] will trade a {{p|Farfetch'd}} for a common {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.
* [[Professor Sycamore]] gives new {{pkmn|Trainer}}s one of the three [[Kanto]] [[starter Pokémon]].
* [[Cassius]] in [[Camphrier Town]] mentions how [[Bill]] sent him there to work with the [[PC]].
* A {{tc|Youngster}} on {{rt|5|Kalos}} will mention that he likes to wear shorts because "they are comfy and easy to wear."
* A sleeping {{p|Snorlax}} is blocking {{rt|7|Kalos}}, and the [[Poké Flute]] is required to awaken and get past it.
* A remix of the wild Pokémon battle music from Generation I plays when battling {{p|Mewtwo}} and the [[Legendary birds]], using exactly the same soundfont as that of the Game Boy music. The remix also contains the {{m|Strength|boulder pushing}} sound effect from [[Generation I]].
* A [[non-player character]] at {{DL|Lumiose City|Magenta Plaza}} mentions that {{ga|Blue|Professor Oak's grandson}} visited [[Kalos]] to study abroad, and would frequently end conversations with "Smell ya later!" However, she also says that he got "bonjour" down just fine, which is how he greeted the player while aboard the [[S.S. Anne]].
* A {{tc|Battle Girl}} in the Fighting Dojo on the third floor of a building at {{DL|Lumiose City|North Boulevard}} mentioned that her [[Kiyo|sensei]] came all the way from the Kanto region to open a [[Fighting Dojo]].
* [[Lysandre Labs]] is a high-tech facility inhabited by a [[villainous team]] where the player needs to use [[spin tile]]s and [[warp tile]]s to navigate around, much like the [[Silph Co.]] and the [[Team Rocket Hideout]].
* The {{kal|Unknown Dungeon}} uses the same name as the [[Cerulean Cave]] in Generation I. Also, both of these locations are the only places in their respective games where {{p|Mewtwo}} can be encountered. Additionally, an NPC blocks the entrance of each {{kal|Unknown Dungeon|Unknown}} [[Cerulean Cave|Dungeon]] until the player becomes the {{pkmn|Champion}}, both NPCs tell the player exactly the same thing if they interact with them, and mysteriously vanish after their conditions are met.
* The [[Poké Ball Factory]] in [[Laverre City]] shares many similarities to [[Silph Co.]]. In both cases, an evil team ([[Team Rocket]] or [[Team Flare]]) infiltrates the facility, and thwarting them rewards a [[Master Ball]].

====To Generation VI====
* [[Dexio]] and [[Sina]], [[Professor Sycamore]]'s assistants from {{g|X and Y}}, appear in Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon, telling the player about {{p|Zygarde}} and its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Zygarde|Cells}} and giving the player a [[Zygarde Cube]], which is stated to have been discovered by Professor Sycamore. They later appear on [[Poni Island]] and inform the player about [[Mega Evolution]], giving the player a [[Key Stone]] and an [[Alakazite]]. They also make an appearance at the [[Battle Tree]].
* When encountered for the first time on {{rt|8|Alola}}, [[Colress]] wonders out loud if the [[Z-Ring]]'s{{sup/7|SM}}/[[Z-Power Ring]]'s{{sup/7|USUM}} power can surpass that of the [[Mega Ring]].
* A man on the first floor of the Dimensional Research Lab in [[Heahea City]] mentions having heard about "some rare Pokémon that can use rings to teleport itself through space", obviously describing {{p|Hoopa}}.

* In Sun and Moon, [[Samson Oak]] mentions that the [[Rotom Pokédex]] was built with the help of a "young fellow" from Kalos. This could be a reference to [[Clemont]], given his reputation as a genius inventor.
* After becoming the {{pkmn|Champion}}, {{tc|Swimmer Girls}} Kylie and Ashlyn on [[Poni Breaker Coast]] will tell the player that they come from the Kalos region. They also talk about [[Trainer PR Video]]s and about being known in Kalos for their skills in [[HM]]-making.

* In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, a {{tc|Team Skull Grunt}} in [[Po Town]] says he's from the Kalos region.

This is likely a reference to the [[old guys]] and the [[O-Power]]s they give to the player in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}.

'''Avery''' (Japanese: '''セイボリー''' ''Savory'') is the [[rival]] character in [[The Isle of Armor]] in {{pkmn|Sword and Shield|Pokémon Shield}}. He [[Type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and is training to be a [[Gym Leader]] in the [[Galar]] [[region]].

==In the games==
{{incomplete|section}}
Avery comes from a long line of psychics who run the {{type|Psychic}} [[Gym]] in [[Galar]]. However, he is considered by his family to be a disappointment due to lacking psychic skills like teleportation or telepathy for example. At some point, he obtained a {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Slowpoke}}. Because of the pressure, he developed a very proud personality and a habit of levitating anyone who defeated him. This behavior lead to his Gym Trainer's status being revoked. During his desperation and depression, he discovered the [[Master Dojo]], through his partner Slowpoke, that would lead him to visit to the [[Isle of Armor]] in order to train under [[Mustard]] so he could improve on inheriting the position of Psychic-type Gym Leader.

He is first seen by the player at [[Wedgehurst]] Station, obtaining the [[Armor Pass]] needed to visit the Isle of Armor. Before he can get on the train, a Galarian Slowpoke appeared blocking the way, which resulted in Avery requiring the player to catch it. After complimenting on the player's capture of Galarian Slowpoke, he gets on the train for the Isle of Armor. He eventually reached his location and becomes a student at the Master Dojo. He initially caused friction with the other students, but he started to become more friendly through Mustard and his wife {{gal|Honey}}. Though he trained hard, he became lazy from the lack of a rival and motivation to improve himself.

===League Cards===
This is a transcript of the back of Avery's [[League Card]]s in [[Pokémon Sword and Shield|Pokémon Shield]].
;Normal League Card
:"Avery comes from a long-standing family of psychics. Each Psychic-type Gym Leader of Galar has been from the same bloodline as Avery, and thus, Avery has been destined to bear the burden of Gym Leader since even before he was born. Ever since he was a child, Avery could freely move things with his mind but lacked other skills, such as teleportation or telepathy. This has caused the rest of his family to label him as a disappointment. Avery has a great deal of respect for Slowpoke, as they go about their business at their own pace, no matter what others say."
;Rare League Card
:"Avery has always been very proud and would levitate any opponent who dared defeat him. This behavior caused his status as a Gym Trainer to be revoked. During this time of despair and desperation, his Slowpoke found a flyer for the Master Dojo, leading to Avery's current circumstances. Avery caused friction with many of the other students initially, but the kindness of Honey and Mustard slowly helped him to mellow out and become more friendly. Recently he has been training hard with his now-evolved Slowbro to prove himself better than a certain new student at the dojo."

:''"Naturally. I have made all the proper preparations, which you can observe with unclouded eyes."
:''"Hmph. To meet a Slowpoke... Such a thing is simply elegant."

*If talked to prior to interacting with the Slowpoke
:''"Could this be your first time ever seeing a Galarian Slowpoke? Where they're from might be different, but they're still just as carefree as other Slowpoke."''

*After catching the Slowpoke
:''"Hmmm? How interesting... I must say, your catching style was quite simply elegant."''
:''"Understood."''
:''"I am headed to an island called the Isle of Armor. I've heard it's a place where one can catch rare Pokémon and do lots of training. Perhaps we shall meet again sometime. Well then, please excuse me."''

==Trivia==
* Avery's uniform number is "026", which can be read in Japanese as {{wp|Japanese wordplay#Goroawase|goroawase}} for おつむ ''otsumu'', meaning "brain".

== The "e" in Pokémon ==

Hey! I'll have to remind you that the "e" in "Pokémon" is supposed to have an accent over it. You can type in such an accented letter by pressing the "alt" button, and then typing in the numerals 1-3-0. Thank you.

'''Porygon''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ポリゴン''' ''Porygon'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Porygon2}} when [[trade]]d holding an [[Upgrade]], which evolves into {{p|Porygon-Z}} when traded holding a [[Dubious Disc]].

==Biology==
[[File:Porygon Conversion.png|thumb|left|200px|Porygon changing its appearance using {{m|Conversion}}]]
Porygon is a Pokémon made completely out of programming code. It is arguably the first artificial Pokemon. It has a pink polyhedral body with a blue front, blue triangular prism feet, and a blue rectangular prism tail. It has a pink, polyhedral head that ends in a blue beak and has hexagonal eyes. In 3D games, such as {{eng|Pokémon Stadium}}, it can detach its limbs and head from its torso. According to its [[Pokédex]] entries, it has copy protection built into its code, preventing duplication through electronic means. It was created [[History of the Pokémon world#Recent history|20 years ago]] at the [[Cinnabar Lab|Pokémon Lab]] on [[Cinnabar Island]] using the latest technology of its time, so many of its parts have since become obsolete.

Due to its man-made origins, Porygon does not need to breathe or eat, though it can still accept food if given. It has the ability to convert its body into digital data, allowing it to travel through cyberspace. Porygon has two [[signature moves]], {{m|Conversion}} and {{m|Conversion 2}}, and in the past it also had {{m|Sharpen}} for a signature move. It can use Conversion to change its appearance to mimic another Pokémon's and has also [[Pokémon Snap|demonstrated the ability]] to change color for camouflage. Because it is man-made, it is generally found in computers or in labs and other {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|buildings}} where people work.

==In the anime==
[[File:Porygon anime.png|thumb|left|220px|Porygon in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
[[File:Porygon Aim to Be a Pokémon Master.png|thumb|220px|Porygon in [[Aim to Be a Pokémon Master]]]]
===Major appearances===
Porygon's only major anime appearance was in [[EP038]]. [[Dr. Akihabara]] created two specimens, {{DL|List of Pokémon temporarily owned by the Team Rocket trio|Porygon Zero|one}} of which was stolen by {{TRT}}, while the other one was borrowed by {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}. Both remained with Dr. Akihabara at the end of the episode.

This episode caused more than 600 children in Japan to be transferred to hospitals by ambulance because of seizure-like symptoms they reported, due to a flashing strobe effect present at several points of the episode, and was therefore [[Banned episodes|banned]] and never aired again anywhere in the world. Since then, Porygon and its evolved forms, {{p|Porygon2}} and {{p|Porygon-Z}}, have never played a main role in the anime.

===Minor appearances===
Porygon made its English dub debut in a scene transition in ''[[EP047|A Chansey Operation]]''.

In the opening sequence of both ''[[M04|Celebi: The Voice of the Forest]]'' and ''[[M05|Pokémon Heroes: Latios & Latias]]'', a Porygon was floating behind a wire fence in a city.

In a shot in a "World of Pokémon" opening at the beginning of ''[[The Journey to be a Pokémon Master Begins!!]]'', a Porygon was floating above a fence in a very similar location.

A Porygon appeared as an image in ''[[SM020|Partner Promises!]]''.

==In the manga==
[[File:Blue Porygon Conversion.png|200px|thumb|Porygon in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Blue's Porygon}}
{{adv|Blue}} obtained a Porygon at the [[Celadon Game Corner|Rocket Game Corner]] in ''[[PS018|A Tale of Ninetales]]'', and it soon became a core member of his team. Prior to {{PAV|13}}, it evolved into a {{p|Porygon2}}.

A Porygon appeared at the {{gdis|Battle Factory|IV}} in ''[[PS427|Uprooting Seedot]]''.

A Porygon appeared in ''[[PASM05|The Announcement and the Prize]]'', under the ownership of [[Gladion]]. It was used in a couple of battles during the [[Iki Town]] festival, helping Gladion to defeat [[Hau]] and {{adv|Moon}}.

====Pokédex entries====
{{Mangadexheader}}
{{Mangadexbody|Pokémon Adventures|[[PS055]]|A Pokémon that consists entirely of programming code. Capable of moving freely in cyberspace.}}
{{Mangadexfooter}}

===In the Pokémon Gotta Catch 'Em All manga===
A Porygon appeared in ''[[GDZ06|The Challenge at Celadon University!]]''.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
A Porygon appeared in ''[[PM011|Finish Off Team Rocket!!]]'', under the ownership of [[Erika]]'s father.

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

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros.]]/[[Super Smash Bros. Melee|Melee]]===
Porygon pops out of a door on top of the [[Silph Co.]] building in the [[Saffron City (stage)|Saffron City stage]]. It damages players that come into contact with it.

Porygon's only appearance in Melee is that of a Poké Float. When the fighting is on {{p|Slowpoke}}'s tail, three will travel across the top of the screen. However, they move too quickly to land on and so are little more than decoration in practice.

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky}}: [[In the Future of Darkness]], Porygon live past [[Spacial Cliffs]]. {{mdc|Dusknoir|2}} goes to Spacial Cliffs to see them. Two Porygon appear at the end of the dungeon. They are allies of [[Primal Dialga]], and they transmit {{mdc|Grovyle|2}} and Dusknoir to [[Frozen Island]].

==Trivia==
* Porygon is the only Pokémon that evolves by trade twice: once holding the [[Upgrade]] into {{p|Porygon2}}, and a second time (as Porygon2) into {{p|Porygon-Z}} when holding a [[Dubious Disc]]. It is also the only Pokémon in a [[:Category:Pokémon that are part of a three-stage evolutionary line|three-stage evolutionary line]] that does not require leveling up to trigger any of its evolutions (i.e. it is possible to acquire a Porygon-Z at level 1).
* Porygon's evolutionary line is the only three-stage evolutionary line whose members can all learn both {{m|Giga Impact}} and {{m|Hyper Beam}}, as all three were considered fully-evolved during their respective debut generations.

===Origin===
Porygon may be based on the concept of a {{wp|bird}} made with primitive {{wp|3D computer graphics}} software. It may also draw inspiration from an {{wp|Orizuru|origami crane}}. Its coloration also somewhat resembles the {{wp|Lake duck|Argentine blue-bill duck}}.

====Name origin====
Porygon is a corruption of ''{{wp|polygon}}''.

== Request ==

While you were inactive for several days recently, I wrote a synopsis for [[JN010|SS010]] and completed the incomplete manga description of [[Pokémon Village]]. Feel free to check those if you haven't already. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 08:44, 3 February 2020 (UTC)

:I'll see what I can do. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 08:46, 3 February 2020 (UTC)
::Have you checked either of those yet? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 08:24, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
::Not yet. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 08:26, 5 February 2020 (UTC)
:::[[XY133]] and [[XY134]]'s synopsises contain unnecessary and excessive repeated links.

Could you help? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 10:32, 6 February 2020 (UTC)
::::Good to have you back after several days of absence. Are you willing to help me in my aforementioned request? Also, may I ask for the reason behind your absence? Real life taking priority, I assume? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 08:25, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

== Removing signatures ==

Please do not just [[Special:Diff/3107487|remove other users' signatures]] for no reason and replace them with the unsigned template. If the user signed when the comment was submitted (or a trivially short time afterwards), it should remain. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 12:15, 3 February 2020 (UTC)
:I have reason to believe {{user|DarkDan}} is manually creating those new signatures, hence why I removed them and replaced them with the unsigned template. Compare the signatures in the last two talk page sections [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Talk:Advanced_Generation_series&oldid=3107269 here]. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 08:13, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
::Even if you suspect that a user might be manually creating signatures, as long as the timestamps are correct they're valid signatures, so you shouldn't remove them. Of course, you seem to have jumped to the conclusion that the user was manually creating signatures because they changed their signature once, rather than the more obvious conclusion that between the two comments they changed their signature.
::But again, even if you had suspected that the user was manually creating their signature, replacing every instance of their signature with {{template|unsigned}} was grossly inappropriate, especially since doing so is not even against the rules (whereas removing their signatures was). The user could easily have interpreted your edits are targeted harassment.
::Furthermore, per the {{bp|talk page policy}}, please keep discussions on a single page, rather than replying on my talk page. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 11:34, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

== Istiyaq ==

Hey there. I get you're only trying to help, but you should leave issues regarding possible sockpuppetry to staff members. There's no need for you to interrogate the user.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 12:25, 3 February 2020 (UTC)

== Warning etiquette ==

Hey GrammarFreak. While it is completely fine to warn users for minor offenses in an attempt to get them back on the right track, I please urge you to refresh yourself with our {{bp|warning policy}}. Please note per the policy that users shouldn't give out warnings for major offenses, such as sockpuppeting, especially if a {{bp|staff|staff member}} has already addressed them. There have been several instances where you have interjected yourself into disciplinary discussions between a user and staff members, which can be deemed inappropriate and overstepping one's authority. It is also unfair and confusing to the user on the receiving end, because there have been instances where you have not been completely correct while trying to enforce rules/policies. Please do not continue to jump in to reprimand users while staff are already addressing a situation. Continuing this behavior could lead to blocks for insubordination. If you have any questions about this, please reach out to myself or another Editorial Board member. Thank you. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 15:52, 3 February 2020 (UTC)
:This is the second instance that I am having to leave a message regarding [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AMr.GodzillaMan&type=revision&diff=3140477&oldid=3140451 interjecting yourself into disciplinary discussions between a user and staff member.] Force Fire's message was more than adequate, you do not have to step in and attempt to further instruct users on their conduct, as it can come across as rude. This is your last warning on this subject. Thank you. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 16:27, 1 April 2020 (UTC)

== Not notable ==

Why do you say Ash losing his winning streak is not notable? [[User:Dhiwakar|Dhiwakar]] ([[User talk:Dhiwakar|talk]]) 12:02, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

:Because [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Force_Fire&diff=prev&oldid=3121808 you guys didn't make it clear] we were talking about a winning streak. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 00:11, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
::Thank you, GrammarFreak01 [[User:Dhiwakar|Dhiwakar]] ([[User talk:Dhiwakar|talk]]) 02:57, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
:::Next time, make it clearer. Context is just as important. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 11:46, 26 February 2020 (UTC)

== Nanny and Pop-pop ==

I couldn't help but notice your edit history on [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Nanny_and_Pop-Pop this page]. While it's completely fine to disagree with an edit and question its validity, you undid ii kanji's edit despite her leaving a solid amount of evidence on the talk page and without addressing anything of her points. There's nothing wrong with having your doubts about the evidence of course, but undoing an edit with "I'd beg to disagree" without addressing any of ii kanji's points and not stating ''why'' you disagree and/or offering any counterpoints to her evidence is a bit strange. Especially since you were the one requesting evidence from ii kanji in the first place. Without doing so, you're essentially edit warring, something you've been told not to do multiple times in the past. Thank you and I hope you consider this. ☼ Blazing[[User talk:Blazingfist|Fist ☼]] 13:56, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

== Deleted appearances ==

Hello,

Noticed your latest edits on [[Abe]], [[Harper and Sarah]]'s pages. The deleted appearances was because they are main characters and had no major role in the plots of the said episodes including SM145. These should be removed yet again. [[User:PardescanSlowbro|PardescanSlowbro]] ([[User talk:PardescanSlowbro|talk]]) 09:04, 5 March 2020 (UTC)

:That applies to main characters, though, not recurring ones. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 09:04, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
::It did for Anela, Officer Jenny, Professor Oak, Nurse Joy amongst others. The Poke Problem sections are also contentious, they were all omitted from the episode plots as they are a Japanese exclusive section, while this is an English wiki. [[User:PardescanSlowbro|PardescanSlowbro]] ([[User talk:PardescanSlowbro|talk]]) 09:07, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
:::That's because Professor Oak, Nurse Joy, etc., are clearly going to be on the show as long as Ash. Recurring characters who appear in one or two series are exempt. As for Anela, I'll be restoring that content. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 09:09, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
::::Leave it for now, I'll address it with an admin as you've been the only one to restore this since its deletion. The re-added appearance info is hardly important to the characters' development. [[User:PardescanSlowbro|PardescanSlowbro]] ([[User talk:PardescanSlowbro|talk]]) 09:10, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
:::::Honestly, though, I'm not sure what was removed on the Anela article. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 09:11, 5 March 2020 (UTC)
::::::And characters' development is not what's at stake here. It's a complete record of all their appearances in the anime. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 09:12, 5 March 2020 (UTC)

After some consideration, I've decided to go with a one day block.

== Enter Pikachu! ==

Do you consider the Pikachu origin story of the episode to be flashback? I don’t, It doesn’t make sense to call it such. It would be like calling A Family That Battles Together and Cerulean Blues “flashbacks” because they aired after Get the Show on the Road! but partially take place before. I was hoping for at least some concurrence before going to remove it.--[[User:KnightGalarie|KnightGalarie]] ([[User talk:KnightGalarie|talk]]) 03:36, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

:The big difference is that you're talking about the airing order for the latter example. That doesn't have any impact on how this wiki presents the anime chronology. If the plot of an individual episode like [[JN001]] is clearly set before the main plot of the overall anime (Ash's journey), then I'd say it's a flashback.

'''Aipom''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''エイパム''' ''Eipam'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Ambipom}} when [[level]]ed up while knowing {{m|Double Hit}}.

==Biology==
[[File:Ash Aipom bananas.png|thumb|250px|left|Aipom getting a banana]]
Aipom is a monkey-like Pokémon with a three-fingered hand at the end of its tail. Its fur is purple, while the skin of its face, inner ears, belly, feet, and the tip of its tail are beige. Its face usually has a cheeky smile and round, blue eyes. With its round ears, Aipom's head is disproportionately large compared to its body. Atop its head is a {{wp|cowlick}} that is longer on females than males. Unlike its feet, Aipom's arms are simple, purple stubs.

Aipom uses its powerful tail freely and cleverly for many purposes. The tail is strong enough to anchor Aipom to a branch and suspend the rest of its body in the air, but also delicate enough to pick fruit and manipulate objects. Aipom has been known to wrap its tail around tree branches as it sleeps so it does not fall. Since Aipom uses its tail so much, its actual arms are not as dexterous and become clumsy over time. Aipom lives high in the treetops of {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|tropical, temperate and even boreal forests}}, using its tail for balance as it swings from branch to branch. In [[Alola]], {{p|Bounsweet}} is its favorite food.

==Trivia==
* {{an|Clemont}} uses a gadget based on Aipom's tail, called the ''Aipom arm''.

===Origin===
Aipom appears to be based on a generic {{wp|New World monkey}} and the exaggerated concept of their {{wp|prehensile tail}}. Aipom also shares its large smile with a {{wp|cymbal-banging monkey toy}}. It may vaguely reference the {{wp|Ahuizotl (creature)|ahuizotl}}, a creature of {{wp|Aztec mythology}} with monkey hands and a fifth human hand on its tail.

====Name origin====
Aipom and Eipam may be a combination of ''{{wp|ape}}'' and ''palm'' (referring to the hand on its tail). It may also refer to a {{wp|pom-pom}}.

'''Fit To Be Tide''' (Japanese: '''オレンジリーグ！ナツカンジム！''' ''Orange League! {{tt|Natsukan|Mikan}} Gym!'') is the 85th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on February 25, 1999 and in the United States on February 5, 2000.

{{spoilers}}

==Blurb==

Ash, Misty and their new friend, Tracey, are on a new adventure exploring the Orange Islands as Ash sets out to qualify for the Orange League Tournament. After hearing that the Mikan Gym Leader is known as one of the toughest trainers in the Orange Crew, Ash can't wait for the challenge. He learns that Pokémon battles are run a little differently on the Orange Islands, but he can always rely on his Squirtle to pull them through!

==Plot==
While riding {{AP|Lapras}} across the ocean, a hungry {{Tracey}} says they are getting close to [[Mikan Island]], which is also home to one of the four [[Gym Leader]]s in the Orange Crew. Meanwhile, {{TRT}}, now in a {{p|Magikarp}} [[Team Rocket's mechas|submarine]], is tracking them, but their submarine's propellers gets tangled in seaweed and they begin to sink.

Upon reaching the shoreline, the group heads straight for the [[Pokémon Center]]. There, {{Ash}} talks to {{an|Professor Oak}} via videophone and lets him know he recently {{pkmn2|caught}} a Lapras. Tracey officially introduces himself to Oak, though the call is cut short as [[Ash's Muk]] smothers the Professor. Ash, {{an|Misty}}, Tracey, {{AP|Pikachu}}, and {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} walk along the dirt path and see [[Mikan Gym]] up ahead. Ash starts to run towards the Gym, though he stops after seeing a coconut on the ground. He runs over to it with Pikachu and picks it up, but a bucket of water falls on their heads, revealing it to be a trap set by a boy named {{OBP|Senta|EP085}}. He chastises Ash and criticizes his Top 16 position in the [[Indigo League]]. He challenges Ash to a {{pkmn|battle}}, but [[Cissy]], his older sister and the Mikan Gym Leader, intervenes and scolds her younger brother.

Ash is prepared to have a match, but Cissy explains that on the Orange Islands, the Gym battles are different from [[Kanto]]'s Pokémon battles. Senta presses the buttons on his remote, making a line of cans appear, and the battlefield becomes an aquatic pool. Cissy proceeds to call out her {{p|Seadra}}, which Ash scans with his [[Pokédex]]. She announces that the first challenge is a {{m|Water Gun}} match-up, where a Pokémon's accuracy is tested by shooting down as many cans as possible. [[Ash's Squirtle]] proves to be an even match against Seadra, and the aim of the challenge shifts to shooting down flying plates. Both are evenly matched and manage to hit the final target at the same time. Cissy declares the first challenge a draw, and Ash congratulates Squirtle's efforts while Seadra turns away in disgust.

Cissy escorts Ash and {{ashfr}} to outside the Gym. To break the tie, Ash will go up against Cissy in a Pokémon Wave Ride, where the aim is to swim out to a flagged buoy and return to the beach first. Cissy calls on her {{p|Blastoise}}, while Ash sends out his Lapras. Before the race can begin, however, Team Rocket appears. When Ash asks that they disappear, [[James]] launches into a tear-filled confession about how he had to go out and untangle their submarine, nearly drowning in the process. {{MTR}} calls for James to focus, and James follows suit by calling out {{TP|James|Weezing}}. Amongst Weezing's {{m|Smog}}, Team Rocket nets Cissy's Blastoise and begins to dive back underwater, only to find that their submarine's propellers are still entangled in seaweed. In a bid to push through, Team Rocket snaps their pedals and their submarine sinks to the seafloor again. Just as Cissy had predicted, her Blastoise proves to be too powerful for Team Rocket's net, and it returns to the beach. Pikachu dips his tail in the water and uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} to shock Team Rocket, while Blastoise sends the trio blasting off with its {{m|Hydro Pump}}.

With Team Rocket defeated, the Pokémon Wave Ride begins. However, Ash and Cissy must stand on their Pokémon's back. During the race, they are evenly matched, so Ash has Lapras nudge the competition, but Blastoise responds, causing Ash to nearly lose his balance. The delay allows Cissy to get ahead of him, and she makes the turn around the flag first. As Ash catches up with Cissy, the pair notices a tidal wave suddenly appearing behind them. To Ash's surprise, Lapras freezes some of the wave with its {{m|Ice Beam}}. However, the wave still crashes into Cissy and sends her flying, but Blastoise catches her in time. Cissy once again gets ahead, but Ash comes up with an idea and has Lapras use an Ice Beam to make an ice-track. Lapras proves to be faster on the ice than in the water, allowing Ash to barely win the race.

Cissy commends Ash's clever Ice Beam tactic, and notes that she can see why he made it so far into the Indigo League. In commemoration of his victory, she gives Ash a {{badge|Coral-Eye}}. Afterwards, he and his friends ride away aboard Lapras.

==Trivia==
* [[Professor Oak's Pokémon Lecture]]: 
** Pokémon senryū summary: Send them flying, with one kick, {{p|Hitmonlee}}.
* This episode's English dub title is a reference to the popular saying "''Fit to be Tied''".
* This is the first time {{TRT}} is seen inside their [[Team Rocket's mechas|Magikarp submarine]], which they would go on to use throughout the entire Orange Islands arc. The submarine they used in [[S01|season 1]] resembled a {{p|Gyarados}}.
* "NATSUKAN", the [[Mikan Gym]]'s Japanese name, can be seen printed on the [[Gym]] even in the dubbed version.
* {{Tracey}}'s surname of Sketchit is revealed in this episode.
* This episode is featured on ''Volume 4: Squirtle'' from [[Viz Media]]'s {{OBP|Pokémon All-Stars|Region 1}} series.
* The book [[The Four-Star Challenge]] is based on this episode.
* This is the first episode in which the word "fight" is repeated three times during Team Rocket's {{motto}}.
** However, the first episode where this chronologically happens is ''[[EP018|Beauty and The Beach]]'', which was initially [[banned episodes|banned]] outside of Japan and was subsequently aired out of order sometime after this episode.

===Errors===
* The island's name, "Mikan", is Japanese for "Orange". In the dub, however, all characters improperly pronounce Mikan, which should properly be "mee-khan," not "mike-an."
* {{Ash}} seemed to not recognize {{p|Seadra}} when first seeing it, despite having previously and recently seen one in ''[[EP075|Round One - Begin!]]''.

===Dub edits===
* [[Pikachu's Jukebox]]: [[Together Forever]]
* [[Cissy]]'s brother {{OBP|Senta|EP085}} is left unnamed in the dub.

'''Ash's Pidgeot''' (Japanese: '''サトシのピジョット''' ''Satoshi's Pigeot'') was the second {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that {{Ash}} {{pkmn2|caught}} in the [[Kanto]] [[region]], and his third overall.

==In the anime==
===History===
[[File:Ash Pidgeotto.png|220px|thumb|left|As a Pidgeotto]]
====[[Original series]]====
Ash caught Pidgeot as a Pidgeotto in [[Viridian Forest]] in ''[[EP003|Ash Catches a Pokémon]]''. Having [[EP001|previously]] failed to capture its pre-evolution {{p|Pidgey}}, and a {{p|Spearow}}, Ash was prepared to fight the Pidgeotto before attempting a capture. However, his {{AP|Caterpie}} was easily overwhelmed by the {{type|Flying}} Pokémon. After recalling Caterpie, Ash sent out his {{AP|Pikachu}}. Pikachu used {{m|Thunder Shock}} to weaken Pidgeotto, allowing Ash to capture it. Later, Ash used Pidgeotto in its first battle against {{TRT}}, but it was ultimately defeated.

In ''[[EP004|Challenge of the Samurai]]'', Pidgeotto was used to weaken a wild {{p|Weedle}} for Ash to capture, but the Weedle escaped when [[Samurai]] arrived and challenged Ash to a battle. Weakened by the battle with Weedle, Pidgeotto battled Samurai's {{p|Pinsir}}. Pidgeotto started off with {{m|Sand Attack}}, but Pinsir simply ran through the dust and defeated it with a single {{m|Tackle}}.

In ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'', it battled {{TP|Brock|Geodude}} in Ash's [[rematch]] with {{an|Brock}}. Its {{m|Gust}} proved ineffective on the {{2t|Rock|Ground}} type Pokémon, and it was quickly knocked out.

In ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]'', Pidgeotto was used in Ash's [[Cerulean Gym]] match against {{an|Misty}}, where it fought {{TP|Misty|Starmie}}. Pidgeotto started off with {{m|Whirlwind}}, but {{p|Starmie}} jumped into the water and then hit Pidgeotto with Tackle. Starmie then went for another Tackle but got knocked into the water by Pidgeotto's {{m|Wing Attack}}. Starmie, however, quickly recovered and struck Pidgeotto with Tackle again. As Starmie headed back to attack once again, Pidgeotto used Gust to propel it with great force into the Gym's wall. The battle was then interrupted by Team Rocket, who tried to steal the Gym's Pokémon.

In ''[[EP019|Tentacool & Tentacruel]]'', Pidgeotto bore Pikachu into battle with a [[Giant Pokémon|giant]] {{p|Tentacruel}}, and was the only one of itself, Butterfree, and {{TP|Brock|Zubat}} to avoid Tentacruel's attacks, allowing Pikachu to attempt to negotiate a truce with the Tentacruel.

In ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]]'', Pidgeotto was used in Ash's [[Fuchsia Gym]] battle against [[Koga]], where it faced his {{p|Venonat}}, which promptly [[Evolution|evolved]] into {{p|Venomoth}}. Pidgeotto tried blowing Venomoth's {{m|Stun Spore}} away with Whirlwind, but failed to do so, crippling it. Pidgeotto was then put to sleep by {{m|Sleep Powder}}, forcing Ash to substitute Pidgeotto for {{AP|Charmander}}.

Pidgeotto played a very important part in Ash's [[Viridian Gym]] battle in ''[[EP063|Battle for the Badge!]]''. [[Ash's Bulbasaur]] and {{AP|Squirtle}} were being brutalized by {{an|Giovanni}}'s {{p|Kingler}} and {{p|Machamp}}, commanded by [[Jessie]], but Pidgeotto turned the tables by using a {{m|Quick Attack}} and {{m|Double-Edge}} combination to inflict serious damage on her {{p|Rhydon}}.
[[File:Ash and Pidgeotto.png|thumb|250px|As a Pidgeotto, with Ash]]
In ''[[EP072|The Ancient Puzzle of Pokémopolis]]'', Pidgeotto was sent out to battle an ancient giant {{p|Gengar}}. However, its Gust had no effect on Gengar, and it was absorbed by the monster. It was saved after the giant {{p|Jigglypuff}} put the huge creature to sleep.

Pidgeotto towed Team Rocket's balloon all the way to the stadium at the [[Indigo Plateau]] in order to allow Ash to reach his battle with [[Ritchie]] in time in ''[[EP079|Friend and Foe Alike]]''. However, due to this it was too exhausted to battle, leaving Ash with only his disobedient Charizard to fight with once Squirtle and Pikachu were defeated.
[[File:Ash Pidgeot released.png|thumb|left|220px|Pidgeot leaving]]
In ''[[EP081|Pallet Party Panic]]'', Ash returned to [[Pallet Town]] following the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]]. Here, it encountered an old enemy; the {{p|Spearow}} Ash had tried to catch [[EP001|the first day of his journey]], who had since evolved into {{DL|Ash's Fearow|In the anime|Fearow}} and was leading other wild Spearow in harassing the local Pidgey flock. Pidgeotto tried to lead the wild Pidgey to safety, but it was badly injured. Desperate to help its fellow birds, Pidgeotto evolved into Pidgeot and attacked Fearow with Gust and Quick Attack. It then led the other Pidgey and Pidgeotto to defeat Fearow. After their victory, Ash released Pidgeot to guard the wild Pidgey so that Fearow would not return for a revenge attack.

Ash promised to return for it after he was finished in the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]], a sentiment that he still held in ''[[EP131|Fighting Flyer with Fire]]'', where it appeared in a flashback. However, Ash has yet to fulfill his promise.

===={{series|Best Wishes}}====
Pidgeot appeared in a flashback as a Pidgeotto in ''[[BW116|The Fires of a Red-Hot Reunion!]]'', when Ash was thinking back to the night he was stuck in a snowstorm and Pidgeotto, along with Pikachu, Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle, helped keep Ash warm.

===Personality and characteristics===
[[File:Ash and Pidgeot.png|200px|thumb|left|Pidgeot and Ash]]
Ash's Pidgeot did not undergo as much character development as his other five original team members, as it had far fewer episodes focused on it. However, it was loyal and had an extremely strong relationship with Ash, the only one of his original six Pokémon he had never been on bad terms with before or after capture. It always followed his orders to the letter, even when this resulted in personal risk of self injury - taking on {{DL|Ash's Fearow|In the anime|Fearow}}, [[Jessie's Arbok]], and the Ancient Giant {{p|Gengar}} are just three examples.

Early in Ash's journey, Pidgeotto was one of his primary battlers, but it was gradually weeded out as an everyday battler after Ash added more Pokémon to his team. It was typically used to blow away {{m|Smokescreen}}s, pop holes in [[Team Rocket's mechas|Team Rocket's balloon]], or conduct aerial searches.

==In the manga==
[[File:Ash Pidgeotto EToP.png|thumb|200px|Pidgeotto in The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]
===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
[[Ash Ketchum (EToP)|Ash]] also owns a Pidgeotto in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] {{pkmn|manga}}. It is the fourth Pokémon that Ash captures in the manga. It first debuts in ''[[ET02|Play Misty For Me]]''. In that chapter, it was given the nickname {{wp|Walter Pidgeon|Walter Pidgeotto}} (Japanese: '''ビジョン''' ''Vision'').

Pidgeotto's capture is not shown, it is first seen when Ash is writing home to [[Daisy Oak|May Oak]] describing the Pokémon he has caught on his journey so far. Later, he tries to use it in his Gym battle against {{an|Misty}}, but it has disappeared from its {{i|Poké Ball}}, leaving a note saying "I'm beat! Off to get some R&R. Don't forget to write! -Pidgeotto".

It is unknown if Pidgeotto has permanently left Ash's party following this. It does not appear in the manga since then, including when Ash brings his entire party out of their Poké Balls in ''[[ET08|You Gotta Have Friends]]''. The role of Ash's main Flying Pokémon is instead filled by [[Ash's Fearow]].

==Trivia==
[[File:OPJ10 Pidgeot Larvitar.png|thumb|220px|Pidgeot in Spurt!]]
* Pidgeot is the first Pokémon of the {{t|Normal}}- and {{type|Flying}}s to have been owned by a main character in the {{pkmn|anime}}.
* Pidgeot debuted long before the episode in which it evolved. Since [[EP001|the first episode]] of the series, Ash is shown throwing a Poké Ball containing Pidgeot and battling a Fearow in the opening [[Aim to Be a Pokémon Master]].
* Pidgeot has since appeared in the tenth opening for the anime, [[Spurt!]]. However, it did not return in any episodes aired with the opening.
** Pidgeot also appeared in the {{OBP|Battle Frontier|dub}} opening along with {{p|Tyranitar}} ({{AP|Larvitar}}'s mother). It was the only one of Ash's old Pokémon to have its Spurt! scene carried across to the dub opening.
* Pidgeot is the first evolved Pokémon caught by Ash.
* Pidgeot is Ash's only regional Normal/Flying Pokémon he released.
* In {{game|Yellow}}, {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s|HeartGold, and SoulSilver}}, it is possible to catch underleveled Pidgeotto in Viridian Forest, as a reference to Ash's Pidgeotto.

Kanto Pokérap

2020-04-06T05:30:26Z

PokeWizardCali: /* Trivia */

The '''[[Kanto]] Pokérap''' (capitalized '''PokéRAP''' on [[Pokémon 2.B.A. Master]]) was the first [[Pokérap]] to be made by [[4Kids Entertainment]] for the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was made to feature the first [[:Category:Generation I Pokémon|150]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that existed at the time.

At the end of an episode, {{Ash}}, in a voice-over, would announce "Don't go away, the PokéRAP is next". Two verses would be played at the end of an episode, and by the end of a five-day week, all the verses would have been sung. It was used from ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'' to ''[[EP057|The Breeding Center Secret]]''.

==Release==
The Day 2 portion of the Pokérap was shown on the promotional preview VHS [[A Sneak Peek at Pokémon]].

A full version of the Pokérap is available on disc 1 of the [[List of English language Indigo League home video releases (Region 1)#Box sets|Season 1 US DVD box sets]] without the first three intro sentences, as well as volumes 1 to 7 of the [[List of English language Indigo League home video releases (Region 1)#Single releases|Season 1 US VHS and DVD volumes]]. All of the [[List of English language Indigo League home video releases (Region 2)|Season 1 UK VHS volumes]] end with a full Pokérap, but one of the vocalists voices was redubbed.

It is available on four different soundtracks: [[Pokémon 2.B.A. Master]], {{OBP|Pokémon X|CD}}, [[Exclusive Target Mix!]] and [[Exclusive Toys R Us Mix!]].

==United Kingdom broadcast edits==
The day-specific nature of some of the "Today's Pokemon" segments (included near the end of the raps) presented problems for international broadcasters who would not necessarily adhere to the same five-days-per-week schedule that the segments were originally designed for. While foreign language dubs may have avoided this problem by changing the dialogue during the dubbing process, countries airing the American version got around the problem in other ways.

* Since UK TV channels only have one commercial break in the middle of the show, and no commercials before the end credits, the "Don't go away, the Pokérap is next" section served no purpose, and was removed almost all of the time.
* In United Kingdom broadcasts on Sky One, any references to specific days of the week during the "Today's Pokemon" screen were removed, likely so that the channel could air episodes on any day of the week without the song providing incorrect scheduling information. For example, the Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday raps would almost always have their last lines, such as "We'll be back tomorrow" and "Catch you here tomorrow", cut out. The Monday Pokérap, which mentioned "Tune in tomorrow, we'll rap at ya some more" as soon as its second sentence was especially affected. This line would make no sense if, for example, the episode containing it was broadcast on a Friday. The editing was done inconsistently and differently on each episode, with occasional raps remaining uncut, most cutting only the final line in the "Today's Pokemon" part, and some cutting the screen out altogether. There was almost always a noticeable skip in the audio.
* Afternoon broadcasts on Children's ITV (CITV) removed the screen altogether, although with better editing.
* When aired on weekend mornings on GMTV in 1999, the opening segment (which often made reference to “five days a week”) was also removed, since GMTV only aired on ITV stations during weekends. The opening dialogue was removed and overdubbed with a British presenter in a faux-American accent, with dialogue such as "If you're gonna catch 'em, you're gonna have to learn their names!", which in the process removed any mention of the five-day-a-week format. The "Today's Pokemon" screen was cut entirely. In addition, two raps were shown per show - one before the first part, and one after the half-way commercial break before the second part of the show.

==Trivia==
* {{p|Jynx}} is shown in [[Jynx (Pokémon)#Controversy|her original black design]].
* The five split segments were placed into episodes based on their ''Japanese'' airing order. This caused problems during the show's time in first-run syndication; ''[[EP019|Tentacool & Tentacruel]]'' aired the "Thursday" segment despite falling into the Wednesday slot in the syndication cycles due to ''[[EP018|Beauty and the Beach]]'' initially being skipped, with ''[[EP036|The Bridge Bike Gang]]'' and ''[[EP039|Pikachu's Goodbye]]'' airing the "Monday" and "Thursday" segments, respectively, despite them falling into Thursday and Monday in the cycles due to [[Banned episodes|the loss]] of [[EP035]] and [[EP038]]. No attempt was ever made to correct this.
** Had the entire first season aired in syndication, the last four episodes of the first season would have been bumped back a whole week in the syndication cycles due to ''[[EP052|Princess vs. Princess]]'' and ''[[EP053|The Purr-fect Hero]]'' being moved to the start of what was considered by Kids' WB the second season in the dub, thus somewhat correcting the problem due to the four episodes coming afterwards having the segments that corresponded to what would have been their days of the week in the cycle.
* If the Pokémon in the Pokérap are rearranged so that they are in National Pokédex order, {{p|Alakazam}}, {{p|Dodrio}}, {{p|Scyther}}, and {{p|Magmar}} would remain in their positions in the song.
* The {{p|Kabuto}} shown in the Pokérap was not a real Kabuto, but rather [[Bill]] in a Kabuto costume. Also, the {{p|Venusaur}}, {{p|Blastoise}}, {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Rhydon}}, {{p|Kabutops}}, and {{p|Zapdos}} shown were all actually mechanical Pokémon from ''[[EP017|Island of the Giant Pokémon]]''.
** There are at least 22 separate instances when a clip from ''[[EP017|Island of the Giant Pokémon]]'' is displayed in the song. Most notably, the images of the mechanical {{p|Zapdos}} and {{p|Rhydon}} appear frequently.
* {{p|Mew}} is the only Pokémon from [[Generation I]] that is not included, because the Pokérap was made before Mew was announced outside of Japan.
* A verse of the Pokérap (beginning with {{p|Articuno}}) was sung by {{wp|NSYNC}} in a Kids' WB promo. However, the band members mispronounced {{p|Muk}} as "mook".
* The Pokérap footage for Rhyhorn, Dratini, and Dragonair originate from [[EP035]], which [[banned episodes|was never released in the dub]]. Additionally, bridge stanza footage of Misty reeling in a {{p|Gyarados}} is also from that episode.
* Sheet music for this song is included in the {{book|Pokémon 2.B.A. Master|Pokémon 2.B.A. Master piano book}} and [[Pokémon Five-Finger Piano]].
* Some {{wp|Christian fundamentalism|Christian fundamentalists}} [[Pokémon controversy#Satanism|complained]] about the song<ref>https://kotaku.com/the-time-they-thought-pokemon-was-satanic-1670792676</ref>, because they claimed that if one were to play backwards the Pokérap, "[[Gotta Catch 'em All]]!" can be heard as "I love you {{wp|Satan}}".
* Tuesday's verse (Zubat-Pikachu) is the only one that uses episode footage for all Pokémon with no stock art used.
** Including the Poliwrath and Graveler errors, 59 of the 150 Pokemon segments used stock art.
*** Although all episodes through ''[[EP041|Wake Up Snorlax]]'' appeared eligible to provide episode scenes for the Pokemon segments, stock art for {{p|Metapod}}, {{p|Clefable}}, {{p|Slowpoke}}, {{p|Chansey}}, and {{p|Vaporeon}} was used despite them appearing within that episode range.
* At the end of the Pokérap Day 4 segment at the end of [[EP044|The Problem With Paras]], the Kids' WB announcer at the time ({{wp|Jim Cummings}}) dubbed over the voice that normally tells the viewer to watch for more of the Pokérap with, "Tune in next week and watch Ash, Misty, and Brock on their quest to become Pokémon masters! Don't miss them, the new ones are now only on Kids' WB!". When this episode was rerun on {{wp|Cartoon Network}} and Boomerang, and even when uploaded onto {{DL|Pokémon in the United States|Cartoon Network Video}}, the Kids' WB announcer's voice remained. Home video releases, streaming services, and Disney XD retain the voices telling the viewers to watch for more of the Pokérap.

===Errors===
[[File:Pokerap error1.png|thumb|220px|Poliwag is shown instead of Poliwrath.]]
* In the VHS and DVD versions of the Pokérap, when {{p|Poliwrath}} is mentioned, {{p|Poliwag}}'s picture is shown. This is also true of its first few appearances in the TV Pokérap version (Day 1). Likewise, when {{p|Graveler}} was mentioned (Day 5), {{p|Geodude}}'s picture was shown. Both of these errors were eventually corrected in version 2, although they still appeared in foreign language versions of early episodes as they are still using the initial masters send by 4Kids. However, [[Netflix]]'s prints of later first season episodes also correct the errors.
* {{p|Lickitung}}'s name is misspelled as Likitung
* In the German version of the Pokérap, {{p|Krabby}}'s image is shown, but {{p|Hypno}}'s name is shown above. When Kakuna's picture is shown, it says Hornliu ({{p|Weedle}}).
** Also in the German Pokérap, {{p|Lapras}} is pronounced {{p|Paras}}.
* In the {{pmin|Norway|Norwegian}} CD version, Duduo is sung as Goldeen.

Kanto Pokérap

2020-04-06T05:29:24Z

PokeWizardCali: /* Trivia */

The '''[[Kanto]] Pokérap''' (capitalized '''PokéRAP''' on [[Pokémon 2.B.A. Master]]) was the first [[Pokérap]] to be made by [[4Kids Entertainment]] for the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was made to feature the first [[:Category:Generation I Pokémon|150]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that existed at the time.

At the end of an episode, {{Ash}}, in a voice-over, would announce "Don't go away, the PokéRAP is next". Two verses would be played at the end of an episode, and by the end of a five-day week, all the verses would have been sung. It was used from ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'' to ''[[EP057|The Breeding Center Secret]]''.

==Release==
The Day 2 portion of the Pokérap was shown on the promotional preview VHS [[A Sneak Peek at Pokémon]].

A full version of the Pokérap is available on disc 1 of the [[List of English language Indigo League home video releases (Region 1)#Box sets|Season 1 US DVD box sets]] without the first three intro sentences, as well as volumes 1 to 7 of the [[List of English language Indigo League home video releases (Region 1)#Single releases|Season 1 US VHS and DVD volumes]]. All of the [[List of English language Indigo League home video releases (Region 2)|Season 1 UK VHS volumes]] end with a full Pokérap, but one of the vocalists voices was redubbed.

It is available on four different soundtracks: [[Pokémon 2.B.A. Master]], {{OBP|Pokémon X|CD}}, [[Exclusive Target Mix!]] and [[Exclusive Toys R Us Mix!]].

==United Kingdom broadcast edits==
The day-specific nature of some of the "Today's Pokemon" segments (included near the end of the raps) presented problems for international broadcasters who would not necessarily adhere to the same five-days-per-week schedule that the segments were originally designed for. While foreign language dubs may have avoided this problem by changing the dialogue during the dubbing process, countries airing the American version got around the problem in other ways.

* Since UK TV channels only have one commercial break in the middle of the show, and no commercials before the end credits, the "Don't go away, the Pokérap is next" section served no purpose, and was removed almost all of the time.
* In United Kingdom broadcasts on Sky One, any references to specific days of the week during the "Today's Pokemon" screen were removed, likely so that the channel could air episodes on any day of the week without the song providing incorrect scheduling information. For example, the Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday raps would almost always have their last lines, such as "We'll be back tomorrow" and "Catch you here tomorrow", cut out. The Monday Pokérap, which mentioned "Tune in tomorrow, we'll rap at ya some more" as soon as its second sentence was especially affected. This line would make no sense if, for example, the episode containing it was broadcast on a Friday. The editing was done inconsistently and differently on each episode, with occasional raps remaining uncut, most cutting only the final line in the "Today's Pokemon" part, and some cutting the screen out altogether. There was almost always a noticeable skip in the audio.
* Afternoon broadcasts on Children's ITV (CITV) removed the screen altogether, although with better editing.
* When aired on weekend mornings on GMTV in 1999, the opening segment (which often made reference to “five days a week”) was also removed, since GMTV only aired on ITV stations during weekends. The opening dialogue was removed and overdubbed with a British presenter in a faux-American accent, with dialogue such as "If you're gonna catch 'em, you're gonna have to learn their names!", which in the process removed any mention of the five-day-a-week format. The "Today's Pokemon" screen was cut entirely. In addition, two raps were shown per show - one before the first part, and one after the half-way commercial break before the second part of the show.

==Trivia==
* {{p|Jynx}} is shown in [[Jynx (Pokémon)#Controversy|her original black design]].
* The five split segments were placed into episodes based on their ''Japanese'' airing order. This caused problems during the show's time in first-run syndication; ''[[EP019|Tentacool & Tentacruel]]'' aired the "Thursday" segment despite falling into the Wednesday slot in the syndication cycles due to ''[[EP018|Beauty and the Beach]]'' initially being skipped, with ''[[EP036|The Bridge Bike Gang]]'' and ''[[EP039|Pikachu's Goodbye]]'' airing the "Monday" and "Thursday" segments, respectively, despite them falling into Thursday and Monday in the cycles due to [[Banned episodes|the loss]] of [[EP035]] and [[EP038]]. No attempt was ever made to correct this.
** Had the entire first season aired in syndication, the last four episodes of the first season would have been bumped back a whole week in the syndication cycles due to ''[[EP052|Princess vs. Princess]]'' and ''[[EP053|The Purr-fect Hero]]'' being moved to the start of what was considered by Kids' WB the second season in the dub, thus somewhat correcting the problem due to the four episodes coming afterwards having the segments that corresponded to what would have been their days of the week in the cycle.
* If the Pokémon in the Pokérap are rearranged so that they are in National Pokédex order, {{p|Alakazam}}, {{p|Dodrio}}, {{p|Scyther}}, and {{p|Magmar}} would remain in their positions in the song.
* The {{p|Kabuto}} shown in the Pokérap was not a real Kabuto, but rather [[Bill]] in a Kabuto costume. Also, the {{p|Venusaur}}, {{p|Blastoise}}, {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Rhydon}}, {{p|Kabutops}}, and {{p|Zapdos}} shown were all actually mechanical Pokémon from ''[[EP017|Island of the Giant Pokémon]]''.
** There are at least 22 separate instances when a clip from ''[[EP017|Island of the Giant Pokémon]]'' is displayed in the song. Most notably, the images of the mechanical {{p|Zapdos}} and {{p|Rhydon}} appear frequently.
* {{p|Mew}} is the only Pokémon from [[Generation I]] that is not included, because the Pokérap was made before Mew was announced outside of Japan.
* A verse of the Pokérap (beginning with {{p|Articuno}}) was sung by {{wp|NSYNC}} in a Kids' WB promo. However, the band members mispronounced {{p|Muk}} as "mook".
* The Pokérap footage for Rhyhorn, Dratini, and Dragonair originate from [[EP035]], which [[banned episodes|was never released in the dub]]. Additionally, bridge stanza footage of Misty reeling in a {{p|Gyarados}} is also from that episode.
* Sheet music for this song is included in the {{book|Pokémon 2.B.A. Master|Pokémon 2.B.A. Master piano book}} and [[Pokémon Five-Finger Piano]].
* Some {{wp|Christian fundamentalism|Christian fundamentalists}} [[Pokémon controversy#Satanism|complained]] about the song<ref>https://kotaku.com/the-time-they-thought-pokemon-was-satanic-1670792676</ref>, because they claimed that if one were to play backwards the Pokérap, "[[Gotta Catch 'em All]]!" can be heard as "I love you {{wp|Satan}}".
* Tuesday's verse (Zubat-Pikachu) is the only one that uses episode footage for all Pokémon with no stock art used.
** Including the Poliwrath and Graveler errors, 59 of the 150 Pokemon segments used stock art.
*** Although all episodes through [[EP041|Wake Up Snorlax]] appeared eligible to provide episode scenes for the Pokemon segments, stock art for {{p|Metapod}}, {{p|Clefable}}, {{p|Slowpoke}}, {{p|Chansey}}, and {{p|Vaporeon}} was used despite them appearing within that episode range.
* At the end of the Pokérap Day 4 segment at the end of [[EP044|The Problem With Paras]], the Kids' WB announcer at the time ({{wp|Jim Cummings}}) dubbed over the voice that normally tells the viewer to watch for more of the Pokérap with, "Tune in next week and watch Ash, Misty, and Brock on their quest to become Pokémon masters! Don't miss them, the new ones are now only on Kids' WB!". When this episode was rerun on {{wp|Cartoon Network}} and Boomerang, and even when uploaded onto {{DL|Pokémon in the United States|Cartoon Network Video}}, the Kids' WB announcer's voice remained. Home video releases, streaming services, and Disney XD retain the voices telling the viewers to watch for more of the Pokérap.

===Errors===
[[File:Pokerap error1.png|thumb|220px|Poliwag is shown instead of Poliwrath.]]
* In the VHS and DVD versions of the Pokérap, when {{p|Poliwrath}} is mentioned, {{p|Poliwag}}'s picture is shown. This is also true of its first few appearances in the TV Pokérap version (Day 1). Likewise, when {{p|Graveler}} was mentioned (Day 5), {{p|Geodude}}'s picture was shown. Both of these errors were eventually corrected in version 2, although they still appeared in foreign language versions of early episodes as they are still using the initial masters send by 4Kids. However, [[Netflix]]'s prints of later first season episodes also correct the errors.
* {{p|Lickitung}}'s name is misspelled as Likitung
* In the German version of the Pokérap, {{p|Krabby}}'s image is shown, but {{p|Hypno}}'s name is shown above. When Kakuna's picture is shown, it says Hornliu ({{p|Weedle}}).
** Also in the German Pokérap, {{p|Lapras}} is pronounced {{p|Paras}}.
* In the {{pmin|Norway|Norwegian}} CD version, Duduo is sung as Goldeen.

==Blurb==

The further you journey, the hungrier you get. On empty stomachs, our heroes' search for food brings them to a small village, but find there is no food at the bakery nor at the grocery store; even the town restaurant is out of food. Just as our hungry heroes lose the energy even to move, the town elder arrives and offers to feed them. He explains to them that a drought has made it impossible to gather a harvest in the village, but cannot explain why they suffer from drought even though it rains often. In return for the meal, our heroes follow the dry riverbed upstream, investigating the cause of the drought.

==Plot==
{{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} are heading for another town, with {{AP|Pikachu}} fast asleep. They run into a [[hippie]], who plays a song on his [[Poké Flute]] that wakes up Pikachu. He then asks them for food, but they don't have any, so they continue on their way. Shortly after, {{TRT}} arrives, and is rude towards the hippie when he plays them a song and asks them for food. After they walk away, he mentions that they give off bad vibes and should learn to respect their elders. Meanwhile, Ash and his friends reach a town, only to find that the local stores and restaurants have no food to sell, as there are no ingredients to cook with. The town's {{OBP|mayor|EP041}} stumbles upon them, shows them to his home, and feeds them. He tells them that the village is unable to get any food because the river has dried up, killing all the produce a fortnight ago. As a result, Ash and his friends decide to head upstream to check it out.

The group discovers a large forest of thorns and decides to crawl through it, but Misty gets scratched in the process. With the help of [[Ash's Bulbasaur]] and its {{m|Razor Leaf}}, they get through the thorns, only to find that the flow of the river is being blocked by a sleeping {{p|Snorlax}}, which is very big and weighs close to 1,000 pounds. Ash, Misty, and Brock try to wake Snorlax up using an announcement speaker and moving it. Ash even attempts to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} the Pokémon, but the {{i|Poké Ball}} just bounces off Snorlax's belly. Soon after, Team Rocket arrives and tries to steal Snorlax, which Ash and his friends try to help them with, as it will unblock the flow of the river.

However, their attempt to steal Snorlax by attaching cables from [[Team Rocket's mechas|their hot-air balloon]] doesn't work. Instead, Meowth and the balloon are sent crashing into the dried waterbed after the cables snap. Ash states that he didn't expect anything less than failure from Team Rocket, but his snide comment infuriates them. Further attempts to wake up Snorlax with an alarm clock and a bucket of water prove unsuccessful, so they decide to try the {{wp|Sleeping Beauty}} approach and get a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} to kiss Snorlax. After some deep thought, Misty tries to have {{TP|Misty|Horsea}} kiss Snorlax, as Ash points out it resembles a horse. Instead, {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} releases itself from its Poké Ball and kisses Snorlax, blushing afterwards. Team Rocket forces {{MTR}} to kiss Snorlax, which doesn't work either, even though Snorlax seems to flinch when this happened.

Snorlax then rolls over, revealing a card that tells them that only the beautiful music from a Poké Flute will awaken a Snorlax. Ash checks his Pokédex for details, and they remember the hippie had a Pokémon flute. They run over to him and ask him to wake up Snorlax, but Ash, Misty, and Brock get into an argument with Team Rocket. Eventually, [[Jessie]] tries to attack with {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}}, but a {{m|Gust}} attack from {{AP|Pidgeotto}}, which turns into a cyclone and sends the trio blasting off again. Ash and his friends then take the hippie to Snorlax, which turns out to be his. He wakes Snorlax up with his Poké Flute, but the river is still blocked. The real source of the blockage is more thorns, but they turn out to be Snorlax's favorite snack. The hungry Pokémon eats all of the thorns, successfully unplugging the river and ultimately saving the town. In honor of the group's effort, the town's mayor declares a celebratory banquet.

After eating enough food, Snorlax goes back to sleep again. Team Rocket soon realizes that they won't be able to steal Snorlax, and then Snorlax rolls over on top of them.

==Trivia==
[[File:Misty bleeding.png|thumb|250px|The scene where {{an|Misty}} was shown bleeding]]
* After the hiatus caused by [[EP038]], the show moved from Tuesday to Thursday. The original schedule was as follows:
{{Rescheduled episodes‎}}
* This episode has the first occurrence that a main character, in this case {{an|Misty}}, was seen bleeding.
* When [[Jessie]] explains the story of {{wp|Sleeping Beauty}}, an image of Sleeping Beauty is shown that closely resembles {{smw|Princess Peach}} in appearance (pink dress with short puffed sleeves, a frilled collar, a gold-trimmed brooch, crown, earrings, and blonde hair).
* This is the first episode where two Pokémon are shown to be kissing each other: both {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} and {{MTR}} kissed {{p|Snorlax}} directly on its mouth, but this was done to reference Sleeping Beauty and {{wp|Snow White}} being awakened by their respective prince's kisses.
* This is the last episode to provide episode scenes for the [[Kanto Pokérap]].

===Errors===
* When Psyduck is sent out, its left foot is colored the same as its body.
* {{Ash}}'s mouth can only be seen faintly when the Snorlax first wakes up and walks away.
* The [[Pokédex]] says that Snorlax is a ''Sleepy'' Pokémon, not a ''Sleeping'' Pokémon.
* When the Hippie is seen playing the flute, Ash's and Misty's shoes are completely white.
* The tune that the Hippie is playing doesn't sync up with his fingerings.
* When the Hippie sees Snorlax for the first time, the cream colored part of Snorlax's body changes tone as it breathes.
* When Ash and {{ashfr}} are at the bread store and Misty tilts her head and cries, her tears stream [[anime physics|diagonally instead of vertically]].

===Dub edits===
* [[Kanto Pokérap]]: Day 1 (Version 2)
* When Misty was shocked that there wasn't any bread left in the town, there was originally Japanese text behind her. This background was replaced in the dub.
* The town was actually a village in the Japanese version.
* The messages on Snorlax's card originally said "Do not wake up." and "If you need me, please wake me up with a [[Poké Flute]]."
* In the {{pmin|Russia|Russian dub by Pilot Studio}}, the amount of food that Snorlax eats in one day is said to be 900 kg, instead of 400 kg (900 lbs). This error was repeated in ''[[EP094|Snack Attack]]''. Unit conversions were correct elsewhere, as in ''[[EP031|Dig Those Diglett!]]'' where 186,282 miles was correctly redubbed back to nearly 300,000 km.

Pastoria Croagunk Festival

PokeWizardCali: /* Intro */

[[File:Craig crown.png|thumb|200px|The Crown of [[Hamilton]]'s {{p|Croagunk}}, [[Craig]].]]
The '''Croagunk Festival''' (Japanese: '''グレッグル祭り''' ''{{tt|Gureggru|Croagunk}} Festival'') is an {{pkmn|anime}}-exclusive festival held annually in the [[Great Marsh]] to celebrate the mascot of [[Pastoria City]], {{p|Croagunk}}. It was featured in ''[[DP082|Cream of the Croagunk Crop!]]''.

{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} were invited by [[Crasher Wake]] to go to the Great Marsh. There they encounter several Croagunk with their {{pkmn|Trainer}}s going to the main venue of the Croagunk Festival. Vendors line the area in the Great Marsh selling food, along with other items. The event features a test of strength and a beauty contest, where the Croagunk who pass the test, face the champion from the previous year. The winning Croagunk is rewarded with a crown with a diamond and a pearl. The judges of the competition are [[Carny]], [[Nurse Joy]] and Crasher Wake. {{an|Brock}} enters with his {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}} and Jessie with {{MTR}} disguised as Croagunk.

Brock wins all the events to face [[Hamilton]] and his Croagunk nicknamed Craig, the defending champion. {{TRT}} interrupts the fight, stealing all the Croagunk in the process. However, Nurse Joy and her Croagunk named Chrissy save the day with a {{m|Vacuum Wave}}. Chrissy's heroicism led to the coronation of Nurse Joy and her Croagunk as champions of the festival. The party then ends the festival.

'''Iris's Excadrill''' (Japanese: '''アイリスのドリュウズ ''' ''Iris's Doryuzu'') is the first Pokémon that {{an|Iris}} caught, but made his first on-screen appearance in ''[[BW009|The Bloom Is on Axew!]]''.

==History==
[[File:Iris Drilbur.png|left|thumb|220px|As a Drilbur]]
Excadrill, as a {{p|Drilbur}}, first met Iris as a child after tormenting some {{p|Patrat}} and stealing their food. She challenged him and after being defeated countless times, Iris finally managed to get the better of the Drilbur and got him tangled in some vines. Unfortunately, he was dangling over a cliff. Iris saved him from a fall and the two began training together. Drilbur won all of his matches through one-hit KOs, never taking a hit in the process. They eventually entered a tournament, where he evolved into Excadrill while battling a Trainer's {{p|Druddigon}} and won, earning Iris a streak of 99 straight wins. Iris, looking to get her 100th win against a Dragon Master, challenged [[Drayden]] to a battle which he happily accepted. Excadrill put up a good fight against Drayden's powerful {{p|Haxorus}}, but he found himself taking hits for the first time. Haxorus soon knocked Excadrill out, and Excadrill, concluding that Iris liked winning battles more than she cared about him, [[Obedience|closed himself off from her]].

He was left at the Village of Dragons when Iris went to the Opelucid Academy. When Iris returned later she decided to take him along on her Journey to become a Dragon Master.

He was later introduced to {{Ash}} and {{an|Cilan}} in ''[[BW009|The Bloom Is on Axew!]]'' when [[Iris's Axew]] got stuck in the horns of a wild {{p|Scolipede}}, and both [[Cilan's Pansage]] and [[Ash's Snivy]] tried and failed to stop it. Reluctantly, Iris sent out Excadrill to help. But as soon as he came out, he stayed in his inactive state and refused to do anything. After Iris rescued Axew herself, Excadrill came out of his inactive state and attacked Scolipede after Scolipede inadvertently kicked him. He easily defeated it and sent it flying off into the horizon. Excadrill cried out in victory before going back into his inactive state.

Iris sent out Excadrill to help out in ''[[BW020|Dancing With the Ducklett Trio!]]'' when {{Ash}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} went missing after falling down a hole. However, Excadrill refused to help, remaining inactive and forcing Iris to recall him. He appeared again for a short time in ''[[BW024|Emolga the Irresistible!]]'' to fend off a swarm of {{p|Swoobat}}, but as usual he just remained idle. He then fell for {{TP|Iris|Emolga}}'s {{m|Attract}} and was returned to his Poké Ball. Then in [[BW025|the next episode]] he was brought out by Emolga's {{m|Volt Switch}}, but still did nothing.

[[File:Excadrill covered.png|right|thumb|220px|Excadrill while inactive]]
In ''[[BW033|Iris and Excadrill Against the Dragon Buster!]]'', after Axew was knocked out by [[Georgia's Beartic]], Excadrill was sent out to battle. After intentionally being knocked into a tree, Excadrill came out of his stasis and battled the Freezing Pokémon. He was knocked out and returned to his idle state of being curled up. Conversations between Ash, Iris and Cilan subsequently followed. Later that night, Excadrill was emotionally moved by Iris's heartfelt apology to him; she finally realising why he had lost faith in her and understanding his situation. Forgiving her, he wandered off while she slept and managed to learn how to use {{m|Focus Blast}}, but could not perform it properly. Iris then trained with him, and together they managed to perfect the move. With his confidence in his Trainer restored, Excadrill re-challenged Beartic, which resulted in a draw. Despite tying, Excadrill was still pleased with the results, embracing his Trainer in a hug.

Iris used Excadrill in the final round of the [[Club Battle]] in ''[[BW042|Club Battle Finale: A Hero's Outcome!]]'' in her battle against {{Ash}} and his {{AP|Pikachu}}. After his Drill Run clashed with Pikachu's {{m|Quick Attack}}, Excadrill grabbed his opponent by the tail and flung Pikachu across the battle field before attacking with {{m|Metal Claw}}. Excadrill then attempted another Metal Claw to meet Pikachu's {{m|Iron Tail}}, however, he was hit by his opponent's attack. His Focus Blast met with Pikachu's {{m|Electro Ball}}, where the moves were shown to be equal. Excadrill soon landed a hit with {{m|Dig}}, although the move left Pikachu spinning in mid-air; putting more force behind his Iron Tail which hit Excadrill hard. Excadrill was finally able to better Iron Tail with Drill Run, distract Pikachu with Dig and win the match with one final Focus Blast.

In ''[[BW048|Battle For The Underground!]]'', he was let out of his Poké Ball by {{AP|Snivy}} when she found it amongst those that {{TRT}} had stolen from the {{ci|Nimbasa}} Pokémon Center, to free Pikachu and Axew from their cages with {{m|Metal Claw}}. He later helped fight off [[Dr. Zager]]'s helicopter, while the other Pokémon worked out an escape.

In ''[[BW059|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 1]]'', Excadrill battled {{p|Tornadus}} and {{p|Thundurus}} in an attempt to halt their rampage. He landed a hit on the legendary Pokémon by combining his Drill Run with Snivy's {{m|Leaf Storm}}, but was eventually defeated by the powerful opponents.

Iris chose Excadrill to participate in the [[Clubsplosion]] tournament in ''[[BW070|The Clubsplosion Begins!]]'', he was sent out to battle [[Burgundy]]'s {{p|Dewott}} and began battling it in the [[BW071|next episode]]. After withstanding an {{m|Ice Beam}} attack, Excadrill narrowly avoided Dewott's {{m|Water Pulse}} with Dig. However, after Dewott sent a Water Pulse into the hole, Excadrill took a lot of damage. He landed his first hit when he collided a short range Focus Blast with Dewott's {{m|Razor Shell}} and soon after, was able to knock its [[Scalchop and seamitar|scalchop]]s away. Iris then ordered a barrage of Metal Claw , but Dewott took the damage and countered with {{m|Revenge}}, heavily damaging Excadrill. After Dewott retrieved its scalchops, Excadrill met its Razor Shell with an equally powerful Drill Run, knocking Dewott back. The match ended with Excadrill overpowering Ice Beam with Focus Blast, hitting Dewott with a Dig and knocking it out with a final Drill Run. Later, in ''[[BW072|A Clubsplosion of Excitement!]]'', Iris and Excadrill faced [[Montgomery]] and his {{p|Throh}}. Excadrill tried to use Drill Run, but Throh countered by grabbing Excadrill and using {{m|Circle Throw}} on him. Next Excadrill tried to use Dig, but Throh used {{m|Superpower}} on the ground, forcing Excadrill to resurface. The Judo Pokémon then defeated the Subterrene Pokémon with a {{m|Seismic Toss}}, eliminating Iris from the tournament.

In ''[[BW101|Drayden Versus Iris: Past, Present, and Future!]]'', Excadrill battled Drayden's Haxorus once again. Excadrill started the battle with Metal Claw, which Haxorus was easily able to block, although it was pushed back by the hit. Excadrill then burrowed underground with Dig, and although Haxorus was able to dodge it and start a {{m|Rock Smash}} counterattack, Excadrill fired a Focus Blast at the Axe Jaw Pokémon before the move could hit, hitting it in the move-using jaw. After this Excadrill and Haxorus launched simultaneous Drill Run and {{m|Giga Impact}} attacks respectively, and were both knocked out by the resulting collision of the moves.

In ''[[BW118|Secrets From Out of the Fog!]]'' Excadrill was sent out to defend the Pokémon living at {{an|N}}'s house from a {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}'s {{p|Muk}}, knocking it back with Metal Claw and eventually defeating it with Focus Blast.

==Personality and characteristics==
[[File:Iris and Excadrill.png|right|thumb|220px|Excadrill and Iris]]
Like [[Ash's Charizard]] and [[Dawn's Mamoswine]] before him, Excadrill did not listen to his Trainer in his debut. However, unlike the other two, this was not in disloyalty to his Trainer. Excadrill is a very proud Pokémon who was once very caring towards his Trainer. However, after a devastating defeat, he became resentful to the point of blocking Iris out and distrustful of her advice in battle, considering her a bad Trainer who would make him lose again. He was later reassured after she apologised to him, learning {{m|Focus Blast|a new attack}} and opened up to his {{an|Iris|Trainer}} once again.

Excadrill, as a Drilbur, was shown to be somewhat of a bully when he stole apples and abused a group of {{p|Patrat}}. Like [[Ash's Snivy]], Excadrill has a passion for battling and won't ever give up, no matter what the circumstances. He always looks for different ways to improve. He is most often used in tournaments.

==Trivia==
*Excadrill is Iris's only Pokémon that:
**Has [[evolved]] under her ownership.
**Is not weak against the {{t|Ice}} type.
**Has not had their capture shown on screen.
*Excadrill is Iris's first fully evolved Pokémon.

=== Player's house ===
The game begins in the [[player's house]], with him/her standing in front of a [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]]. Boot up the PC on the desk and access the Item Storage function. There is already a {{DL|Potion|Potion}} stored here, so select ''Withdraw Item'', then ''Potion ×1'' to retrieve it. Shut down the machine and head downstairs. {{ka|Mom}} says that {{prof|Oak}} has been looking for him/her, so head outside. Welcome to Pallet Town!

Oak is nowhere to be found, so head north into the tall grass on the edge of town. From out of nowhere, Oak appears! He yells at the player for trying to leave on its own, without a Pokémon for defense against the wild Pokémon roaming around. He leads the player back to the lab.

=== Professor Oak's Laboratory ===
Oak offers a choice of a very first Pokémon. Each one has its advantages and disadvantages, and some are more challenging to raise than the others.

* {{p|Bulbasaur}} is perfect for beginners. It can easily mop up Pokémon in the {{gy|Pewter}}, {{gy|Cerulean}}, and {{gy|Viridian}} Gyms, and resists the Pokémon in the {{gy|Vermilion}} and {{gy|Celadon}} Gyms. It is also unaffected by the {{status|Poison}} status ailment. It may have trouble with the {{gy|Saffron}} and {{gy|Cinnabar}} Gyms, but at that point in the game you should have some great Pokémon to back it up. Bulbasaur's final form, {{p|Venusaur}}, is capable of learning {{m|Earthquake}}, a useful move when facing {{type|Fire}} Pokémon. Due to Sludge Bomb being unobtainable until post Elite 4, Venusaur will only have Grass type moves for STAB.
* {{p|Charmander}} is the most difficult Pokémon for beginners to use, since it will be at a disadvantage early on. However, it learns {{m|Metal Claw}} on level 13, which gives it a fighting chance at the [[Pewter Gym]]. Adding to this, its disadvantages are done with after the Cerulean Gym. While Charmander's only real advantage is at the [[Celadon Gym]], you will still be able to deal with the remaining Gyms fairly well. Its final evolution, {{p|Charizard}}, is noted for being quite powerful, and is capable of learning {{m|Brick Break}} and {{m|Earthquake}} to deal with its {{t|Rock}} and {{t|Electric}} weaknesses. {{m|Dragon Claw}} is also an option for dealing with Lance's Dragon types.
* {{p|Squirtle}} is the second-easiest for beginners. It can defeat the Pewter, Cinnabar, and Viridian Gyms without much effort, but can do little against the {{gy|Vermilion}} and {{gy|Celadon}} Gyms. Its movepool is relatively limited, and it may have trouble against the other {{type|Water}} Pokémon in the [[Cerulean Gym]]. Squirtle's final evolution, {{p|Blastoise}}, is capable of learning {{t|Ice}} and {{t|Ground}} moves like {{m|Ice Beam}} and {{m|Earthquake}} to cover its weaknesses.

After selecting a Pokémon, {{ga|Blue}} chooses the Pokémon with an advantage type. Head for the door to be drawn into battle!

During the battle, Oak will explain a few basics. If the player's Pokémon is running low on {{stat|HP|health}}, use the {{DL|Potion|Potion}} from the PC. Regardless of which two Pokémon face off, their chances of winning are about the same; none of them know any moves of their own type, so Blue has no advantage just yet. When the battle ends, he leaves the Lab.

Exit the building and head north to reach {{rt|1|Kanto}}.

== Route 1 ==
[[File:Kanto Route 1 FRLG.png|250px|thumbnail|left|Route 1]]

{{rt|1|Kanto}} is a short path that connects [[Pallet Town]] to [[Viridian City]] in the north. Without {{ball|Poké}}s, it is impossible to catch any of the wild {{p|Pidgey}} or {{p|Rattata}} yet, but battling a few will earn the player's young Pokémon some [[experience]].

The man at the south end of the route works at the Poké Mart in Viridian, and gives away a free {{DL|Potion|Potion}} as a sample. It is also possible to rest up at home by talking to {{ka|Mom}}.

== Viridian City ==
[[File:Viridian City FRLG.png|250px|thumbnail|Viridian City]]

[[Viridian City]] is a small city, and the first with a Pokémon Gym. However, the mysterious [[Gym Leader]] is out of town, and the Gym has been closed indefinitely.

=== Pokémon Center ===
The southernmost building is the local [[Pokémon Center]]. This Pokémon hospital will heal a Trainer's team to full health and normal status, and the PC in the corner is free to use. In addition to accessing the Item Storage system, these PCs can also access the Pokémon Storage system. As Trainers may only travel with up to six Pokémon at once, any others are immediately transferred to storage upon capture.

=== Poké Mart ===
Behind the Pokémon Center is the local [[Poké Mart]]. These stores offer a variety of {{ball|Poké}}s, {{DL|Potion|Potion}}s, and other items. Upon entering the building, the cashier asks the player to deliver {{key|III|Oak's Parcel|a package}} to [[Professor Oak]]. The cashier will not sell anything until the delivery is made.

=== Pokémon academy ===
[[Pokémon academy|This school]] teaches young Pokémon Trainers about the basics of battle. The blackboard in the front of the room lists the five {{DL|Status condition|Non-volatile status|status ailments}} that can affect a Pokémon.

== Pallet Town ==
[[File:KantoTownMap.png|250px|thumbnail|The Kanto region, as seen when viewing the Town Map]]

=== Professor Oak's Laboratory ===
Upon delivering {{key|III|Oak's Parcel|the package}} to [[Professor Oak|Oak]], his grandson returns to the lab. Oak then gives each Trainer a [[Pokédex]], an electronic encyclopedia that will be used to catalog every Pokémon in existence. In addition, each receives five {{ball|Poké}}s to start them on their journey. {{ga|Blue}} remarks that he doesn't need any help—he will get a [[Town Map]] from his sister, [[Daisy Oak|Daisy]], and tell her not to give the player one. Despite this, Daisy will still give out a map anyway.

== Route 22 ==
[[File:Kanto Route 22 FRLG.png|250px|thumbnail|Route 22]]

{{rt|22|Kanto}} is a short route that leads west from {{ci|Viridian}}. The path is a dead-end right now, but there are still new Pokémon to find. The {{type|Fighting}} {{p|Mankey}} will be useful at the first Gym, and even more so if the player chose {{p|Charmander}}.

{{ga|Blue}} reappears halfway along the route, and challenges the player to another battle. He has added a {{p|Pidgey}} since the previous battle, but this should still be an easy fight.

After the battle, return to Viridian City and head north. The {{ka|old man}} stops {{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 2}}|0=Red|1=Leaf}} to apologize for being rude earlier. Seeing {{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 2}}|0=his|1=her}} Pokédex, he offers to demonstrate how to catch a Pokémon. After catching a {{p|Weedle}}, he hands over the {{key|III|Teachy TV}}, a portable television that is tuned to a program with useful tips for novice Trainers.

Zigzag through the trees, then collect another {{DL|Potion|Potion}} from the clearing. Trek through the tall grass to fight Bug Catcher Sammy and find another {{DL|Potion|Potion}}, then exit through the gate to re-emerge on {{rt|2|Kanto}}, and continue north to [[Pewter City]].

The '''seventh generation''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|第七世代|だいななせだい}}}}''' ''seventh generation'') of Pokémon games is the seventh installment of the Pokémon video game series starting with {{g|Sun and Moon}}. Like [[Generation VI]], the games of the seventh generation are presented on the [[Nintendo 3DS]].

==History==
The seventh generation of Pokémon was announced with the reveal of {{g|Sun and Moon}} on February 27, 2016, the [[Pokémon 20th Anniversary]]. These games were released worldwide on November 18, 2016, except in Europe where they were released on November 23, 2016.

The Generation VII games are not isolated from previous iterations and can communicate with both the [[Generation VI]] games and the [[Generation I]] [[Virtual Console]] re-releases through an online application known as [[Pokémon Bank]]. Through Pokémon Bank, [[Poké Transporter]], [[Poké Transfer]], and [[Pal Park]], Pokémon all the way from [[Generation III]] can be transferred to Generation VII.

==Advances in gameplay==
* The addition of {{cat|Generation VII Pokémon|81 new Pokémon}}, bringing the total to 802.
* The addition of 80 new [[move]]s.
* The addition of 41 new {{Abilities}}.
* A new region to explore, the [[Alola]] region, based on {{wp|Hawaii}}.
*The return of different overworld themes depending on the [[time]] of day, which was originally introduced in [[Generation IV]].
* A new [[Villainous teams|villainous team]], [[Team Skull]].
* Several [[Generation I]] Pokémon have a form unique to Alola known as a [[regional variant]]; this aspect of Generation VII is based on [[wp:Evolutionary pressure|selective pressures]] which occur in the [[Pokémon world in relation to the real world|real world]].
* The player can move freely in any direction in any area of the game, as opposed to the eight-directional grid of the previous generation.
* The addition of the Rotom Pokédex, a special [[Pokédex]] inhabited by a {{p|Rotom}} that doubles as a real-time map on the bottom screen of the [[Nintendo 3DS]].
* The 3D models used for characters on the overworld are refined, and Trainers can be seen behind their Pokémon during battle, similar to {{g|Colosseum}}, {{pkmn|XD: Gale of Darkness}}, and {{pkmn|Battle Revolution}}.
* Certain NPC trainers may keep their Pokémon in [[Poké Ball]]s other than the standard {{ball|Poké}}.
* A new battle mechanic, [[Z-Move]]s, powerful moves that Pokémon can learn and perform once per battle.
* The addition of the [[island challenge]], a traditional rite in the Alola region involving trials guided by [[Trial Captain]]s, battling [[Totem Pokémon]], and battles with [[Island Kahuna]]s.
* The introduction of {{p|Greninja}}'s [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Greninja|Ash-Greninja form]] and {{p|Zygarde}}'s [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Zygarde|four alternate forms]], previously shown in the ''XY&Z'' arc of the {{pkmn|anime}}'s {{series|XY}}.
* Six new {{p|Pikachu}} [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Pikachu in a cap|forms]] based on [[Ash's Pikachu]].
* Two new battle modes:
** A battle that takes part between four Trainers called a [[Battle Royal]], where each participating Trainer aims to defeat each other. The battle ends when all of one Trainer's Pokémon are [[Fainting|knocked out]], with the winner being the Trainer who has the highest combined number of knockouts and number of remaining Pokémon.
** A battle where [[wild Pokémon]] can summon allies to assist them called an [[SOS Battle]].
* The new [[QR Scanner]] allows players to register Pokémon in their Pokédex and receive [[event Pokémon]].
* The addition of [[Poké Ride]]s, which allow players to summon Pokémon that they can ride to access otherwise inaccessible areas.
* The addition of [[Hyper Training]], a system that allows players to exchange special [[Bottle Cap]]s to maximize the [[IV]]s of their [[Level]] 100 Pokémon.
* The addition of the [[Festival Plaza]], a hub accessible from the [[menu]] that allows the player to interact with other players locally or via the internet, as well as access various shops similarly to [[Join Avenue]].
* The addition of the [[Poké Pelago]], an option accessible from the [[menu]] that allows the player to send Pokémon that are stored in a [[PC]] [[Pokémon Storage System|Box]] to various islands, allowing them to gather items, discover [[wild Pokémon]], and even raise their [[level]]s and [[stat]]s.
* The player can now replace one of their [[party]] Pokémon with a newly [[caught Pokémon]] without having to use a [[PC]].
* One new variant of [[Poké Ball]], the [[Poké Ball#Beast Ball|Beast Ball]], retaining the 26 found in previous games.
* The introduction of a new [[evolutionary stone]], the [[Evolutionary Stone#Ice Stone|Ice Stone]].
* Several Pokemon learn new moves upon evolution regardless of the level in which the evolution takes place.
* During a [[Pokémon battle]], the bottom screen now displays a move's [[Damage#Type effectiveness|type effectiveness]] once the player has encountered the Pokémon again.

===Alterations from Generation VI===
* Several Pokémon can learn new moves upon [[evolution]].
* [[Pokémon-Amie]] is replaced by [[Pokémon Refresh]].
* The [[Player Search System]] is replaced and incorporated into the Festival Plaza.
* The abandonment of the following elements:
** Counting how many of each species of Pokémon the player has encountered.
** The National Pokédex, with Pokémon from outside the Alola Pokédex having no Pokédex entry at all.
** [[Horde Encounter]]s, [[Sky Battle]]s, [[Inverse Battle]]s, [[Triple Battle]]s, and [[Rotation Battle]]s.
** [[Super Training]], [[O-Power]]s, and [[Poké Mile]]s.
** [[Pokémon Contest|Contest Spectacular]]s, [[Cosplay Pikachu]], [[Secret Base|Super-Secret Base]]s, [[Mirage spot]]s, [[Soaring in the sky|Soaring]], and the [[DexNav]] from [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]].
* The experience formula once again takes in account the difference between the Pokémon's levels.
* A Pokémon's speed after [[Mega Evolution]] is used to determine the turn order, not its Speed before.
* The following [[status condition]]s have been altered:
** {{status|Burn}} now only removes 1/16 of the Pokémon's maximum [[Statistics#Hit Points|HP]] instead of 1/8.
** {{status|Paralysis}} now decreases a Pokémon's {{stat|speed}} to 50% instead of 25%.

==Region==
[[File:Alola alt.png|thumb|250px|Alola]]
===Alola===
{{main|Alola}}
The [[Alola]] region was introduced in {{g|Sun and Moon}}. This island region is made up of four main islands and one artificial island.

====Starter Pokémon====
The starters of the seventh generation follow the traditional {{t|Grass}}/{{t|Fire}}/{{t|Water}} trio setup. At the beginning of the game, the player must choose between the Grass and {{type|Flying}} {{p|Rowlet}}, the Fire-type {{p|Litten}} and the Water-type {{p|Popplio}}.

====Trial Captains and Totem Pokémon====
There are seven [[Trial Captain]]s and eight [[Totem Pokémon]], Pokémon which are bigger than the rest of their species and have "auras" that increase one of their [[Statistic|stats]] at the beginning of battle. Upon a Totem Pokémon's defeat, the player will get the corresponding [[Z-Crystal]] of the same type of the trial.

Priority

2017-02-06T07:13:30Z

PokeWizardCali: /* Mechanics */ cleaning it up a bit

{{spading|comment=Any messages that have priority over moves - basically, anything that was overlooked; verify Quick Claw's and Custap Berry messages' priority in Generation IV }}
'''Priority''' (Japanese: '''先制''' ''preemption'') is a characteristic of [[move]]s, such that any move with a higher priority than another will always be performed first. When two moves have the same priority, the users' {{stat|Speed}} statistics will determine which one is performed first in a {{pkmn|battle}}.

==Mechanics==
Each move has a hidden priority value in the game data, with values ranging from <tt>+5</tt> to <tt>-7</tt>. The great majority of moves have no special priority: their priority value is <tt>0</tt>. A move with a positive priority is a '''priority move''' (Japanese: '''先制攻撃''' ''preemptive attack''). Moves with a positive priority may also be referred to as having an increased priority<ref>[http://www.pokemon.com/us/strategy/perfecting-your-pokemon-party-in-2016/ Perfecting Your Pokémon Party in 2016! | Pokemon.com]</ref> and moves with a negative priority a decreased priority. In the fandom, moves that have the same priority are said to be in the same priority bracket.

Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Gale Wings}} or {{a|Prankster}} increase the priority of their {{type|Flying}} moves (only if the user has full HP in Generation VII) or [[status move]]s by 1 (respectively). Pokémon with {{a|Triage}} increase the priority of most HP-restoring moves by 3.

If a Pokémon uses an increased priority move against a Pokémon that is protected by {{m|Quick Guard}}, has the Ability or an ally with the Ability {{a|Queenly Majesty}} or {{a|Dazzling}}, or a Pokémon that is on the ground while {{m|Psychic Terrain}} is in effect, the move will be blocked. From [[Generation VI]] onward, this applies even to moves given an increased priority by Abilities like Prankster.

Move priority is not affected by the effects of {{m|Trick Room}}, which only reverses the Speed-resolved order of moves within a priority bracket; moves with higher priority are still performed before ones with lower priority. Some [[held item]]s and {{Abilities}} also affect a move's resolution within its priority bracket (ignoring even Trick Room), but not the priority itself. The items {{DL|Incense|Full Incense}} and {{DL|In-battle effect item|Lagging Tail}} and the Ability {{a|Stall}} cause the affected Pokémon to go last in its priority bracket, while the items {{DL|In-battle effect item|Quick Claw}} and [[Custap Berry]] cause the user to go first in its priority bracket.

Certain actions always occur before any moves can be performed (with the possible exception of Pursuit). The messages for the activation of {{DL|In-battle effect item|Quick Claw}}, [[Custap Berry]], and [[O-Power]]s are always shown before anything else. [[Recall|Switching out]], [[Rotation Battle|rotating]], using [[item]]s, [[Escape|escaping]], and the message that {{m|Focus Punch}} is charging are displayed or performed next. [[Mega Evolution]] generally occurs after any switching has occurred. If a Pokémon is Mega Evolving or rotating and using Pursuit on a Pokémon that is switching out, however, the Mega Evolution or rotation always happens before the Pokémon uses Pursuit (and therefore before the other Pokémon's switch).

{{m|Pursuit}} is a special exception to the general rule of priority, due to its effect. [[Recall|Switching]] fundamentally happens before moves can be performed. However, when Pursuit targets a Pokémon that switches out, it will hit the Pokémon before it can switch, meaning that it will go before any other move, no matter its priority. If multiple Pursuits are targeting the same Pokémon and the Pokémon switches out, if the Pokémon [[fainting|faints]] before all of the Pursuits have executed, the remaining Pursuits will execute at their normal priority.

==In the anime==
[[File:Zoey Glameow Fake Out.png|thumb|250px|Glameow using Fake Out before Piplup is able to attack]]
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, priority is rarely mentioned though priority moves such as {{m|Quick Attack}} are frequently used.

{{an|Brock}} touched on the subject in ''[[DP177|A Grand Fight for Winning!]]'' while watching the [[Contest Battle]] between {{an|Dawn}} and [[Zoey]] in the final round of the [[Sinnoh Grand Festival]], during which [[Zoey's Glameow]] used {{m|Fake Out}} and caused [[Dawn's Piplup]] to {{status|flinch}}, making him unable to use {{m|Hydro Pump}}.
{{-}}
==Trivia==
* Since {{m|Focus Punch}} has a higher priority than {{m|Avalanche}}, {{m|Revenge}}, {{m|Dragon Tail}}, {{m|Circle Throw}}, and {{m|Counter}}, they are unable to break the focus of a Pokémon using Focus Punch. They and Focus Punch are therefore the only six attacks that can strike a Pokémon in the same turn as it successfully uses Focus Punch, without the use of {{m|Quash}} or {{m|After You}}.
* {{p|Hitmontop}} can learn more moves with non-zero priority than any other Pokémon, with 14 {{cat|increased priority moves}} and 2 decreased priority moves.
* Since charging Focus Punch had a higher priority than switching in Generation III, in a [[Double Battle]], if the player selected Focus Punch then cancelled the selection, then switched that Pokémon out, it would still begin charging Focus Punch before switching. Its high priority also gave it the odd effect of occurring before the opponent used their items or Pokémon were switched out.
* All moves that have ever had -7 priority have the word "room" in their names.
* In the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series, due to the inability to apply the concept of priority because Speed does not determine the attacking order, moves that are priority moves in the core series games become moves that have a range of 2 tiles. In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky]], wild Pokémon may attempt to attack the player or fellow teammate while inside a wall, but only if the foe is 2 tiles away.

{{spoilers}}

==Blurb==

Just as Ash, Misty, and Tracey set foot on Mandarin Island, Pikachu and Togepi turn against them and join a group of other angry Pokémon. When the misbehaving Pokémon disappear, Officer Jenny arrives and informs them that dozens of Pokémon have been reported missing, including Meowth! Everyone fears a Psychic Pokémon is behind this mystery. Will Jessie and James actually join forces with our heroes? Could they possibly win a battle for the first time?

==Plot==
Continuing their adventures in the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]], {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} have stopped off at [[Mandarin Island North|Mandarin Island]]. After recalling {{AP|Lapras}}, the trio hear a commotion, and notice a {{p|Grimer}}, {{p|Voltorb}} and four {{p|Magnemite}} attacking their {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. Eager to investigate, Ash and the others run to help. However, as {{AP|Pikachu}} approaches, he stops. When Ash inquires as to what is wrong, Pikachu just glares at his master. Out of nowhere, {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} jumps out of {{an|Misty}}'s arms and glares at its Trainer as well. Pikachu and Togepi then join the other {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, while Voltorb {{m|Explosion|explodes}}, distracting Ash from rescuing his Pokémon. When the dust clears, [[Officer Jenny]] has arrived, but the Pokémon are gone.

At police headquarters, Jenny explains that for some time, Pokémon have all been disobeying their masters. The only Pokémon that doesn't appear to be affected by it is a {{p|Gastly}}. Jenny explains that she is hoping by using Gastly, they will be able to figure out what is going on. Ash and the others vow to help as well.

Meanwhile, {{TRT}} has arrived on the island. While [[Jessie]] and [[James]] want to go exploring, {{MTR}} becomes angry with them, saying they have important business to do. Suddenly, Meowth pauses. When Jessie and James ask him what is wrong, he takes off. Team Rocket follows Meowth, and end up in a large room. As they get up, they notice [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]] looking at them. After both sides say their {{motto}}, Butch and Cassidy explain that they are stealing all the Pokémon on Mandarin Island for {{an|Giovanni|the Boss}}. They present proof by showing all the Pokémon they have stolen so far, which includes Pikachu, Togepi and Meowth. Impressed, Jessie and James decide to steal the Pokémon Butch and Cassidy have taken.

Jessie sends out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}}, while James sends out {{TP|James|Weezing}} and {{TP|James|Victreebel}}. While Victreebel bites on his head, Butch snaps his fingers. A {{p|Drowzee}} hooked up to a machine appears. As Jessie and James question about it, the {{type|Psychic}} begins using {{m|Hypnosis}}, causing all four of the Rocket's Pokémon to turn against them. Butch and Cassidy explain that they have Drowzee hooked up to an antenna which strengthens and broadcasts it's hypnotic power all across Mandarin Island, which has allowed them to take control of all the Pokémon on the island. Having revealed their plan, they decide to get rid of Jessie and James and set their own Pokémon (including Meowth) onto them.

Jessie and James are later found unconscious and taken to the Pokémon Center. When they awaken, they are with Officer Jenny, Ash and the others. After explaining that they witnessed Butch and Cassidy with all the stolen Pokémon, Ash tries to convince them to infiltrate their base again. The duo refuses, until Jenny convinces them that if they do this, they will be thought of as heroes. Liking this idea, Jessie and James agree to help out.

Looking through a surveillance camera, Butch and Cassidy see Jessie and James roll a large cart up to the entrance of their headquarters. It is filled with Poké Balls. Jessie and James tell the other Rockets that they would like to make peace, and have brought hundreds of Pokémon for them. Butch and Cassidy are skeptical, but let the duo in anyway. As they enter, Ash, Misty and {{Tracey}} jump out and demand Butch and Cassidy return the Pokémon. They refuse, saying that with the help of Drowzee, the Pokémon on Mandarin Island will do whatever they want them to do. Using Drowzee, they have all the Pokémon attack the Trainers. All the electric, fire and water types combine their attacks into a super-powered blast however Gastly protects them from it.

Suddenly, Ash gets an idea. After Pikachu {{m|ThunderShock|shocks}} him, he gets up, taunting Pikachu into launching another attack. This angers Pikachu, who tries again. Ash keeps dodging the attacks, all while taunting Pikachu. Everybody is confused as to what Ash is doing. As Gastly starts to weaken, Ash gets in front of the machine controlling Drowzee and taunts Pikachu into giving him everything he's got. Pikachu launches a massive ThunderShock, which strikes not only Ash, but the machine as well. As a result, it overloads and explodes, causing Drowzee to lose control of all the Pokémon.

Misty happily runs up to Togepi, who, upon seeing her, jumps into her arms. Ash, injured and tired, looks up to see Pikachu jump into his arms. The other Pokémon are released back onto the island, and run off to find their Trainers. However, Butch and Cassidy refuse to let Ash and the others leave. They challenge them to a battle, and Ash accepts. Using Drowzee, Butch and Cassidy are able to confuse Pikachu. Then, they have the Psychic-type use {{m|Metronome}}. Tracey comments this is trouble, as they don't know what move it will use. At the same time, nobody notices Togepi using Metronome as well. When it completes the move, an explosion sends Butch, Cassidy and Drowzee flying, and their headquarters destroyed.

After the duo is arrested, everyone wonders where the explosion came from. Many attribute it to Drowzee's Metronome having backfired on itself. Ash and friends then bid Mandarin Island farewell and head off on their next adventure.

==Trivia==
* [[Professor Oak's Pokémon Lecture]]: {{p|Hitmonchan}}
** Pokémon senryū summary: Send them flying, with one punch, {{p|Hitmonchan}}.

* Tracey exclaims ''[[Who's That Pokémon?]]'' when he sees {{p|Drowzee}}.
* This is the first time [[Jessie's Lickitung]] was used since [[EP052|the episode it was caught in]] over 30 episodes earlier.
* Both of [[Butch]], [[Cassidy]]'s, [[Jessie]], and [[James]]'s mottos are said at the exact same time in this episode.
** Although Cassidy claims that Jessie and James' version of the motto is incorrect, in ''[[EP057|The Breeding Center Secret]]'' Meowth claims that Butch and Cassidy stole the motto from them.
* Ash's Pikachu is referred to as a male in the dub. Shortly after [[Officer Jenny]] first arrives, just after the explosion, Ash says "You just gotta find him Officer Jenny!"
* This episode marks the first time Pikachu has been controlled by an evil organization.
* Jessie, James and Meowth do not blast off in this episode.

===Errors===
* At the beginning of the episode, four {{p|Magnemite}} are hypnotized by Drowzee. Later in the episode, only three Magnemite are hypnotized.
* At one point, James commands {{TP|James|Weezing}}, {{TP|James|Victreebel}} and {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}} to use {{m|Tackle}}. However, Victreebel and Lickitung [[Anime move errors|cannot legally learn the move in the games]].
** Similarly, Ponyta used Flamethrower, despite that it was impossible to teach a Ponyta this move until [[Pokémon Crystal Version|Pokémon Crystal]].
* In the dub, the [[Pokédex]] classifies {{p|Drowzee}} as the "Hypnotic Pokémon" whereas its actual classification in the games is the ''Hypnosis Pokémon''.
* Jolteon's collar disappears briefly in a scene in which two Pokémon attack.
* Tracey makes a comment at the end of the episode about how the only time Jessie and James are on the winning side was with Ash and his friends. As this was Tracey's third episode with the group and he had encountered Team Rocket twice previously, this may or may not be an error.

Artificial Pokémon

2016-12-03T18:51:04Z

PokeWizardCali: /* Rotom */ since Rotom possesses the Pokedex in Sun and Moon

{{samename|{{OBP|Pokémon|species}} identified in the [[Pokédex]] with the "Artificial" {{pkmn|category}}|Magearna (Pokémon)}}
In the [[Pokémon world]], a great deal of advanced technology is shown to be used by [[human]]s. Among this technology is the ability to create '''artificial Pokémon'''—{{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that have not emerged naturally but have been created, either through experiments or indirect means.

These Pokémon, other than being artificially created, are no different from natural Pokémon. They can breed, evolve, be found in the wild, be captured and be trained just as ordinary Pokémon would. Even these Pokémon have DNA which draws from the genetic code of {{p|Mew}}, the supposed ancestor of all other Pokémon besides these.

==Known artificial Pokémon==
===Grimer and Muk===
According to several [[Pokédex]] entries, {{p|Grimer}} and consequently {{p|Muk}} were created from human pollution in a stream exposed to {{wp|X-ray}}s from the Moon. As they were created from genetic waste, Grimer and Muk are {{type|Poison}} Pokémon.

===Voltorb and Electrode===
{{p|Voltorb}} and, as such, {{p|Electrode}}, first appeared, according to several Pokédex entries, at [[Silph Co.|the company]] where modern [[Poké Ball]]s were developed. It is rumored that it was first created when a Poké Ball was exposed to a powerful pulse of energy.

===Porygon's evolutionary family===
[[File:Porygon Zero.png|thumb|200px|Porygon is a life form made of computer data.]]
Until the re-discovery of {{p|Golett}}, {{p|Porygon}} was thought to be the first Pokémon created deliberately. It is the first Pokémon deliberately created using modern technology, as the result of an experiment by the [[Pokémon Lab]] in [[Kanto]]. [[Silph Co.]] possesses a report on the Pokémon, calling it the first "virtual-reality Pokémon." Because it is made up entirely of computer data, it is able to exist in cyberspace. According to some Pokédex entries, there is copy-protection data embedded in the program to prevent illegal reproduction, however as Porygon can be bred using {{p|Ditto}}, this is arguably ineffective. Porygon was developed to work in space, but it lacks this ability until evolving.

Porygon possesses two evolutions, both possible through artificial upgrades. {{p|Porygon2}} evolves from Porygon when it is traded while holding an {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Up-Grade}}. According to some Pokédex entries, it is designed to work in and explore space; despite this, it is unable to reach and explore other planets. Unlike its predecessor, Porygon2 is not limited to what is contained in its program—it is capable of learning.

Porygon2 evolves into {{p|Porygon-Z}} when traded holding a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Dubious Disc}}. It is a modification of Porygon2, designed for travel between different [[dimensions]]. However, it did not work as planned so it exhibits erratic behavior and is capable of displaying emotion.

===Mewtwo===
[[File:Mewtwo M01.png|left|thumb|250px|Mewtwo is a clone of Mew.]]
{{p|Mewtwo}} is a powerful Legendary Pokémon, the result of gene splicing experiments using the DNA of the [[Mythical Pokémon]] {{p|Mew}}. According to logs found in the {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}} in Kanto, Mew "gave birth" to Mewtwo after an embryo had been developed. This is inconsistent with Pokémon traditionally being born from {{pkmn|Egg}}s. It has a somewhat artificial appearance, most notably the tube protruding from the back of its neck. Like Mew, it harnesses powerful {{t|psychic}} energy. However, Mewtwo's power was amplified to exceed Mew's power in an effort to create the most powerful Pokémon ever created.

===Baltoy and Claydol===
Many of {{p|Claydol}}'s Pokédex entries state that it and its pre-evolution, {{p|Baltoy}}, were originally clay figures created by ancient people. The figures came to life after being exposed to mystical rays.

===Castform===
{{p|Castform}} was created by scientists at the [[Weather Institute]] in [[Hoenn]] to help predict the [[weather]]. Because of this, it has the ability to {{a|Forecast|change}} its [[List of Pokémon with form differences|form]] and type with the weather.

===Banette===
{{p|Banette}} is a plush doll that was thrown away. It seeks the child who abandoned it.

===Trubbish and Garbodor===
{{p|Trubbish}}'s Pokédex entries says it was created when garbage and industrial waste mixed, causing a reaction that generated Trubbish. {{p|Garbodor}}, as its evolution, springs from the same source.

===Golett and Golurk===
{{p|Golett}} and {{p|Golurk}} were apparently created by an ancient civilization to protect people and Pokémon alike.

===Type: Null and Silvally===
{{p|Type: Null}} was created to synthesize strengths of various Pokémon, allowing it to adapt to any situation. The helmet Type: Null wears was made to control its powers and hinder its agility. When it evolves into {{p|Silvally}}, it deliberately destroys its helmet, allowing it to use its full power. It also has a drive on its head that utilizes its {{a|RKS System}} Ability.

===Magearna===
{{p|Magearna}} was created over 500 years ago by human hands.

==Other Pokémon influenced by humans==
Some Pokémon that formed naturally are shown to be altered in some way by human involvement.

===Deoxys===
{{p|Deoxys}} is said to be a virus which fell from space while attached to a meteor. Once on Earth, this virus was mutated by accidental exposure to a laser beam which transformed it into a Pokémon. Its DNA remains unstable and it will {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Deoxys|mutate further}} when exposed to certain sources of extraterrestrial radiation.

[[File:Cheryl Wormadam Trash Cloak.png|thumb|200px|Wormadam donning the Trash Cloak]]
===Burmy and Wormadam===
{{p|Burmy}} create outer cloaks out of their habitat. This may be composed of natural materials, as seen in its Plant Cloak or Sandy Cloak, or of artificial insulation as seen in its Trash Cloak. Burmy's cloak will change depending on the location of its last battle.

Female Burmy evolve into {{p|Wormadam}}, which retain the last cloak it had as a Burmy, including the Trash Cloak.

===Spiritomb===
{{p|Spiritomb}} were once 108 separate entities whose sins caused their spirits to be bound together into the [[Odd Keystone]] as this Pokémon. The Keystones were then separated from the [[Hallowed Tower]], which triggers Spiritomb's release.

[[File:Mow Rotom anime.png|left|thumb|200px|Rotom can take over man-made appliances such as a lawnmower.]]
===Rotom===
{{p|Rotom}} has the ability to possess microwaves, washing machines, refrigerators, electric fans, lawnmowers, and even certain Pokedexes.

===Genesect===
{{p|Genesect}}, a Mythical Pokémon, was a different Pokémon many years ago. However, in Unova, Team Plasma reconstructed it from a Fossil with the goal to create the most powerful Pokémon ever. [[N]] cancelled the project due to his belief that a Pokémon modified by science would lose its pureness. [[P2 Laboratory#Event 2|One scientist]], however, kept working on the project in secrecy, disagreeing with N's decision to cancel it. The scientist equipped Genesect with a metallic body, a cannon behind its head, and items known as [[drive]]s which change the type of its [[signature move]], {{m|Techno Blast}}.

===Alolan Rattata and Raticate===
{{p|Rattata}} and {{p|Raticate}} in [[Alola]] were booming in population until {{p|Yungoos}} were imported as a control measure. As a result, they changed their habitat, settling in urban areas and becoming nocturnal - which gave it an additional {{type|Dark}} and [[Alolan Form|changed its appearance]]. Due to the new environment, Rattata and Raticate indulged themselves in richer, high-calorie foods, which made Raticate fatter and have puffier cheeks.

===Alolan Meowth===
{{p|Meowth}} were imported to Alola as a gift to royalty. Due to its pampered and luxurious lifestyle, Meowth grew greedy and selfish, becoming a pure Dark-type and changing its appearance, later becoming feral and more common in the wild after the monarchy in Alola fell and left it living on the streets.

===Alolan Grimer and Muk===
When Alola became more populated, {{p|Grimer}} were imported to deal with the garbage problem. Upon feeding on Alola's garbage, Grimer changed appearance and gained an additional Dark typing. The continual consumption of toxins also changed the appearance and typing of {{p|Muk}}, whose appetite now extends to anything within reach and has produced a new toxin from the accumulation of waste and manufactured materials.

'''Eusine''' (Japanese: '''ミナキ''' ''Minaki''; '''Eugene''' in ''The Legend of Thunder!'') is a researcher and expert in the [[Legendary beasts]]. For ten years he has chased {{p|Suicune}}, the embodiment of the North Wind, but to no avail.

==In the games==
Eusine first appears in {{game|Crystal}}. He is first seen researching the [[Burned Tower]], together with [[Morty]]. Later, he battles the {{player}} in [[Cianwood City]], just north of the Pokémon Seer, after seeing {{p|Suicune}} escaping from the town, hoping that by battling the player he will earn Suicune's respect as a Trainer. After Suicune has been caught in the [[Bell Tower|Tin Tower]], he returns to his hometown, [[Celadon City]], and can be found in Celadon [[Pokémon Center]] waiting for the player to catch all three [[Legendary beasts]]. After this is accomplished, Eusine will return to the Tin Tower and wait for the player to summon {{p|Ho-Oh}}.

Eusine also appears in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, in which his storyline is almost identical at first but differs in the end. In these games, Eusine follows Suicune to [[Kanto]], chasing it around and ultimately to its final destination — the [[Kanto Route 25|Cerulean Cape]]. Before the player can catch Suicune, he/she must see it along with Eusine at Burned Tower, [[Cianwood City]], {{rt|42|Johto}}, [[Vermilion City]], and {{rt|14|Kanto}} in that order before being able to catch it at the Cerulean Cape. It is revealed in these games that when Eusine was young, he was told stories about Suicune by his grandfather, who is very knowledgeable about Johto's folklore. Despite this, Eusine never mentions the Bell Tower or Ho-Oh in these games, nor is his hometown stated to be Celadon City.

* After Suicune has fled
:''"I dug a hole here, too... I was shocked! <sc>Suicune</sc> raced by like a blur, right in front of my eyes! For ten years I chased <sc>Suicune</sc>, and I finally got to see it. I'm all choked up! <player>, I owe this all to you! Thank you! I heard that the legendary <sc>Pokémon</sc> of <sc>{{ci|Ecruteak}}</sc> test chosen humans by allowing them to get close. I'm going to track <sc>Suicune</sc>. <Player>, let's meet again! Farewell!"''

'''[[Cianwood City]]'''

I hear <sc>Suicune</sc>'s mystic power summons a {{p|Ho-Oh|rainbow-colored <sc>Pokémon</sc>}}. Maybe, just maybe, what went on today will cause that <sc>Pokémon</sc> to appear. I'm going to study the legends more. Thanks for showing me that fantastic battle. Later, <player>!!"''

'''[[Celadon City]]'''
* Before catching Entei and Raikou
:''"Hi! I'm back visiting my hometown. It's been quite a while. Oh, by the way, <player>. Have you caught the legendary <sc>Pokémon</sc> <sc>Raikou</sc> and <sc>Entei</sc>............... Okay... If you catch even one, I hope that you'll inform me. I'm counting on you, <player>!"''

* After Entei and Raikou have been caught
:''"<Player>, have you heard? There have been fresh rumors of a rainbow-colored <sc>Pokémon</sc> appearing at <sc>Tin Tower</sc>. I've just had my party healed, so now I'm headed to <sc>Ecruteak</sc>. I'll be seeing you, <player>!"''

'''Tin Tower'''
* After encountering Ho-Oh

'''[[Burned Tower]]'''
* When first met
:''“My name is Eusine. I’m on the trail of a Pokémon named <sc>Suicune</sc>. And you are…? <Player>? Glad to meet you. I heard rumors that <sc>Suicune</sc> is here, so I came to look. Take a look at the basement through the hole in the floor. There. <sc>Suicune</sc> is down there. I could go downstairs, but I know it would run away in no time. I know. I have tried many times…”''

* If talked to again
:''"There seems to be more than meets the eye with you..."''

* After Suicune has fled
:''"I dug a hole here, too... I was shocked! <sc>Suicune</sc> raced by like a blur, right in front of my eyes! For ten years I chased <sc>Suicune</sc>, and I finally got to see it.

'''Burned Tower'''
:''"By the way... It was clear to me that <sc>Suicune</sc> took notice of your presence. Ecruteak's legendary Pokémon are said to come to people only when they recognize their talents. Perhaps I should be more aggressive toward <sc>Suicune</sc>..."''

'''{{rt|42|Johto}}'''
:''"<sc>Suicune</sc>... How brave it is! How refreshing it is! How beautiful it is! And how quickly it moves! <Player>, you seem to be around where <sc>Suicune</sc> would appear. Well, that's OK. My desire to search for <sc>Suicune</sc> is far beyond yours... My grandpa was...quite into myths. I've heard so many stories about <sc>Suicune</sc> from him. <sc>Suicune</sc>... I won't stop following you until I've found out what you're after... You hear me!"''

'''[[Vermilion City]]'''
:''"That was so close! I thought I could corner it by ambushing it here... But running on the water... is beyond me. Still, I am starting to see a pattern. <sc>Suicune</sc> prefers water! That means... Sorry, <player>, I've got to go!"''

'''{{rt|14|Kanto}}'''
:''"<Player>! Not again! I'll be there first next time! Having followed it here, I'm starting to understand what <sc>Suicune</sc> is after. To be honest, I would like to keep this information to myself. But I want to be an honest Trainer in front of <sc>Suicune</sc>! That's why I am sharing a clue with you. It seems that... ...<sc>Suicune</sc> prefers a hilly place near water... ..Somewhere north. I don't know exactly where, yet. It will be just you and me! Who'll find it first? I challenge you!"''

'''[[Kanto Route 25|Cerulean Cape]]'''

:''"Take a look at it! <sc>Suicune</sc> is waiting for you! It has been waiting for a battle with a worthy Trainer to whom it can entrust itself!"''

[[File:Eusine anime.png|thumb|200px|Eusine in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
[[File:Eusine LoT.png|thumb|240px|left|Eugene in ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'']]
In the anime episode ''[[EP227|For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll!]]'', he was portrayed as being a proud and arrogant person with a slight superiority complex and exhibiting an obsession with {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Suicune}}, challenging {{Ash}} for daring to say that he had met the Legendary beast. This might just have been a form of jealousy on his part, for Ash had also seen {{an|Ho-Oh}} as well, while he had yet to encounter any himself. In the same episode, when he finally saw Suicune, he tried to catch it partially for ego gratification, ironically making him no better than the people who he had mentioned were unworthy for it. However, for some reason when he appeared in ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'' he mentioned Suicune only once, and then only in reference to the other beasts. This is only in the Japanese version, however.

In ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'', Eugene<ref group=note name=eugene>In ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'', Eusine was mistakenly called "Eugene".</ref> assisted {{jo|Jimmy}}, {{jo|Marina}}, and [[Vincent]] in their battle against [[Attila]] and [[Hun]]. Marina fell for him because he wore a cape, though he does not allow anyone to touch said cape. Eugene is also much differently portrayed here than in his original appearance. He acts as an elderly father like supervisor to the children and is quite calm in most situations, even when Jimmy and Vincent were panicking over Marina being kidnapped. He also drove a red SUV which was accidentally destroyed by {{OBP|Raikou|The Legend of Thunder!}} during the final battle with Team Rocket.

He is apparently very close friends with [[Morty]], who is also an expert on the {{ci|Ecruteak}} legends. Morty acts as Eusine's voice of reason, trying to convince him to calm down and ease up, but to no avail. When Eusine left suddenly at the end of the episode, Morty's lack of surprise indicates that this has happened before. Eusine is also good friends with fellow researcher [[Kudo]] and is sometimes described as a "Champion Scientist".

|desc=Eusine first used his {{p|Alakazam}} when he was about to have a {{pkmn|battle}} with Ash, but the battle was called off due to the {{t|Bug}} Pokémon covering the town with their strings. Later Eusine attempted to use Alakazam in order to protect Ash and {{ashfr}} from the attacks of several [[wild Pokémon]], but the attacks came through and stopped Alakazam. When Eusine tried to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} Suicune, he sent his Alakazam against the Aurora Pokémon. However, Alakazam was soon forced to return back into its [[Poké Ball]] by the effect of Suicune's {{m|Roar}}.

In ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'' Eugene used his Alakazam to battle against Attila and Hun's {{p|Steelix}} and {{p|Skarmory}}.

Alakazam's known moves are {{m|Reflect}}, {{m|Disable}}, {{m|Confusion}} and {{m|Psybeam}}.}}

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Eusine Mary Director Crystal Mom Adventures.png|thumb|260px|Eusine in Pokémon Adventures]]
Eusine is first mentioned by [[Morty]] in ''[[PS125|Misdreavus Misgivings]]''. Morty states that Eusine asked him to use his clairvoyance to search for the [[Legendary Pokémon]] Suicune. Due to Suicune's Legendary status, Morty was unable to locate where it slept. After facing and losing to Suicune in battle, Morty calls Eusine to tell him about the encounter.

Eusine makes a proper debut in ''[[PS126|Jumping Jumpluff]]'', where he meets {{adv|Crystal}}, another person searching for Suicune. After they introduce themselves to each other, Eusine deems Crystal his rival for their similar goal and proceeds to leave. He accidentally ends up crashing into a barn at the [[MooMoo Farm]], angering the farmhands, who demand that Eusine leave and pay for the damages. By tricking the farmhands by healing their {{p|Miltank}} with what he claims to be "magic", Eusine gets out of having to pay for the broken roof and earns himself free milk in the process. He is immediately approached by Crystal, who saw through the trick and knew that Eusine used a [[Berry]] to heal the Miltank. Eusine assumes Crystal had followed him to get a chance at getting close to Suicune, but she states that it was pure coincidence, as she is tracking Suicune with her [[Pokédex]].

Soon after, Suicune appears and attacks the two. Crystal deduces that the Suicune who attacked them is a fake and uncovers its true identity, a {{p|Ditto}} sent to throw them off from the real Suicune's whereabouts. They realize that if someone sent a diversion, the real Suicune must currently be pursued by whoever sent the Ditto. Crystal and Eusine make their way to find Suicune by using Crystal's Pokédex to track its location. Upon spotting the people after Suicune, Eusine leaves Crystal to face the pursuers in battle. He tells Crystal to go after Suicune, who is heading to [[Ecruteak City]]. Eusine finds out the pursuers are the [[Team Rocket Elite Trio]] and faces them in battle. Eusine succeeds in defeating the trio and steals the [[Clear Bell]] they had in their possession. Eusine heads to the [[Bell Tower]], where Crystal is facing Suicune in battle. He arrives just as Crystal had been defeated and blocked from accessing the tower due to Suicune's Crystal Wall. With the Clear Bell, Eusine bypasses the Crystal Wall and heads up the Bell Tower in hopes that Suicune is still there, only to find it already gone. After Crystal wakes up, Eusine realizes that Suicune was heading to the Bell Tower to meets its master, {{p|Ho-Oh}}. Eusine then leaves Crystal to continue his journey to capture Suicune.
[[File:Eusine Adventures.png|thumb|200px|left|Eusine in the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}]]
During the final battle against the [[Masked Man]], Eusine arrives to rescue [[Misty]] and an injured Suicune from being trapped in the Crystal Wall. Due to Misty's injuries, she tells Suicune that it will have to continue the battle against the Masked Man with a new partner. Although Eusine hoped to be chosen, he is disappointed when Suicune chooses Crystal as its new partner. Later, Eusine meets up with Morty, who asks if he is disappointed that he wasn't chosen by Suicune. Eusine confidently states that Suicune will choose him one day, as he did save its life.

In the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}, Eusine appears at the [[Johto Safari Zone]] selling crudely-drawn photos and poems of Suicune to visitors. There, Eusine encounters {{adv|Silver}}, who had arrived to search for someone. The meeting is cut short when they are attacked by [[Petrel]] of [[Team Rocket]]. Eusine is incapacitated by tear gas created from Petrel's {{p|Koffing}}, leaving Silver to battle the villain alone. After facing Petrel and defeating him, Silver obtains the two [[Plate]]s that were in Petrel's possession. Later, Silver reveals to Eusine about everything he learned from his battle with Petrel. Silver also reveals that the creator of Team Rocket is his father, {{adv|Giovanni}}, and that it was created after Silver was kidnapped as a child by the Masked Man. Feeling bad for Silver's plight, Eusine recommends that Silver meet Morty and his clairvoyance to help him find the Plates.

Eusine is immediately attacked by a group of schoolchildren who accidentally mistook him for a Pokémon. The caretaker of the children is revealed to be Crystal, who was leading a school trip. Crystal decides to go with Silver on his journey to find the Plates and stop Team Rocket. Eusine is left behind to tend to the children, much to his frustration. At the end of the ninth chapter, Eusine encounters Suicune again and chases after it, much to Suicune's annoyance.

===In the Pokémon Gold & Silver: The Golden Boys manga===
[[File:Eusine Golden Boys.png|thumb|200px|right|Eusine in the Golden Boys manga]]
In [[Pokémon Gold & Silver: The Golden Boys]], Eusine is first seen coming to [[Cianwood Gym]] and trying to retrieve a {{p|Pikachu}} from {{GnB|Gold}}. It turns out that this Pikachu was actually a messenger sent from future by Eusine and [[Bill]] to guide the present Eusine to [[Legendary Pokémon]] using a special learning device attached to it. Gold wanted to battle with Eusine for that Pikachu, but [[Chuck]], the [[Gym Leader|leader]] of Cianwood Gym told them to battle next day. Gold and his {{p|Croconaw}} beat Eusine's Hypno and Gold won the battle, so Pikachu could stay with him. This caused Eusine to search for Legendary Pokémon alone.

Later, {{GnB|Black}} unsealed the [[Black Tyranitar]], Cianwood's Legendary Pokémon who used to wreak havoc in the [[Johto]] region. Eusine was one of the people who helped Gold fighting the Black Tyranitar.

==Trivia==
* Despite being mistakenly known as "Eugene" in the English and Spanish dubs of ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'', Eusine was correctly named in the {{pmin|Israel}}i dub, just as in the [[original series]], because the error was caught by the director of the series dub, Maya Bar Shalom. His situation matches that of [[Vincent]].
* His HeartGold and SoulSilver artwork adds several diamond shaped patterns to his clothes, which resemble those seen on the body of {{p|Suicune}}.

'''Hawlucha''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ルチャブル''' ''Luchabull'') is a dual-type {{2t|Fighting|Flying}} Pokémon.

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

==Biology==
Hawlucha is a small, bipedal bird-like Pokémon. It has red, cape-like wings that are connected to its tail with green undersides and small clawed hands. It has red chest feathers, a white abdominal area and legs with small yellow feet. It has a green, mask-like face with an orange stripe down the middle, as well as orange rings around its eyes. Hawlucha has a small, red beak, and a white patch underneath it. It also has three orange tassle-like appendages jutting out of the back of its head. Its eyes have black sclera and large yellow irises.

Hawlucha makes up for its small body with its proficiency in fighting, which allows it to keep up with bigger fighters such as {{p|Machamp}} and {{p|Hariyama}}. It deftly controls its position in the air by using its wings. A favored tactic is to strike from above, as many opponents have a hard time defending against this maneuver. Prior to Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Hawlucha was the [[Signature moves|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning {{m|Flying Press}}.

==In the anime==

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Hawlucha. Prior to its introduction, Fighting was the only available type at the time to not have been paired with Flying.

===Origin===
Hawlucha is based on a combination of a {{wp|bird of prey}} and a {{wp|lucha libre|luchador}}, and may also draw inspiration from Aztec {{wp|eagle warrior}}s. The clawed wings resemble those of a juvenile {{wp|hoatzin}}. Its coloration may be based on the male {{wp|resplendent quetzal}}.

====Name origin====
Hawlucha is a combination of ''hawk'' and ''{{wp|lucha libre}}'', a form of Latin American professional wrestling.

Luchabull may be a combination of ''luchador'' and ''bull''.

Flying (type)

PokeWizardCali: /* Characteristics */ Stealth Rock deserves a mention for the defensive category since it's a prominent part of the meta

{{Types}}
The '''Flying type''' (Japanese: '''ひこうタイプ''' ''Flying type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in Flying-type Pokémon are the [[Gym Leader]]s [[Falkner]] of [[Violet City]], [[Winona]] of [[Fortree City]], and [[Skyla]] of [[Mistralton City]]. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Flying-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]] depending on the attack.

==Characteristics==
===Defense===
Defensively, the Flying type is very useful for its immunity to the powerful {{type|Ground}} moves and its resistance to {{t|Fighting}}. However, many Flying types have a secondary type that is weak to Fighting, most notably {{t|Normal}}, making their resistance to the Fighting type ineffective. In addition, its weaknesses to {{t|Electric}}, {{t|Rock}}, and {{t|Ice}} are common. Finally, almost all Flying types are dual-typed, thus making some vulnerable to double weaknesses. Unless they have Ground, Fighting, or {{type|Steel}} typing, all Flying types take at least 25% of their HP worth in damage to Stealth Rock, making them that much more unreliable defensively.

Despite this, most Flying types have access to {{m|Roost}}, allowing them to restore their health and temporarily lose their Flying type. However, this also makes them vulnerable to Ground-type moves. If a pure Flying-type Pokémon uses Roost, then it will become a {{t|???}} type in [[Generation IV]] and a {{t|Normal}} type in [[Generation V]] onwards.

There is a [[Mysterious air current|special type of weather]] that can only be activated by the Ability {{a|Delta Stream}}. It causes moves that would be super effective against pure Flying-type Pokémon to deal half damage to all Flying-type Pokémon.

===Offense===
Offensively, Flying-type moves are usually only useful when benefited by [[same-type attack bonus]] and for their strength against the {{t|Fighting}} type, as well as advantages over {{t|Bug}} and {{t|Grass}} types. Most Flying types have above-average {{stat|Attack}} or {{stat|Special Attack}} and {{stat|Speed}} stats, making them potential offensive sweepers.

The Flying type pairs well with other fairly common attacking types, such as {{t|Ground}}. As {{t|Dark}} and {{t|Ghost}}-type moves are no longer resisted by {{t|Steel}} in [[Generation VI]], the Flying-type pairs well with these two types, along with the {{t|Water}} and {{t|Fighting}} types. Most damaging Flying-type moves are also useful for being able to hit any opponent in [[Triple Battle]]s.

Flying-type Pokémon, on average, have the highest Speed of all Pokémon and of fully evolved Pokémon.

===Contest properties===
In {{pkmn|Contest}}s, Flying-type moves are typically {{OBP|Cool|condition}} moves.

==Trivia==
* Generations {{Gen|I}}, {{Gen|II}}, and {{Gen|V}} introduced more Flying-type Pokémon than any other generation, each with {{tt|19|including Rotom's Fan form in Gen V}}. [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest Flying-type Pokémon, with eight.
* Generations I and {{Gen|IV}} introduced more Flying-type moves than any other generation, with seven. Generation II introduced the fewest Flying-type moves, with only {{m|Aeroblast|one}}.
* Until {{p|Tornadus}} debuted in Generation V, Flying was the only type that had no single-typed Pokémon.
* Before {{p|Noibat}} and {{p|Noivern}} debuted in Generation VI, all dual-typed Flying Pokémon had Flying as their secondary type.
* Although Normal is not typically paired up with other types, it is the most common type paired with Flying.
* Each generation has introduced at least one part-Flying [[Legendary Pokémon]].
* All damage-dealing Flying-type moves except {{m|Air Cutter}} can hit non-adjacent Pokémon in [[Triple Battle]]s.

Ghost (type)

2016-12-03T00:24:04Z

PokeWizardCali: /* Trivia */ word choice, seems appropriate given the evidence

{{Types}}
The '''Ghost type''' (Japanese: '''ゴーストタイプ''' ''Ghost type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who [[Type expert|specialize]] in Ghost-type {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are [[Agatha]], [[Morty]], [[Phoebe]], [[Fantina]], [[Shauntal]], and [[Acerola]]. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Ghost-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]] depending on the attack.

===Generation VI onwards===
Ghost-type Pokémon are now immune to effects that prevent [[recall]] or [[escape]] (such as {{m|Mean Look}} and {{a|Shadow Tag}}), and they are also guaranteed to flee from any wild battle regardless of Speed.

|weaken2=Psychic
|resisted1=Dark
|unaffected1=Normal

|noeffect1=Normal
}}

==Characteristics==
===Defense===
The Ghost type is a valuable defensive type due to being immune to both the {{type|Fighting}}, one of the most popular attacking types, and the {{type|Normal}}, a type with a number of strong moves. As of [[Generation VI]], Ghost-type Pokémon are immune to all {{cat|trapping moves}} and [[Ability|Abilities]], including {{a|Magnet Pull}} and {{cat|moves that partially trap|partially-trapping moves}} such as {{m|Fire Spin}}. Ghost types are also guaranteed to [[escape|run]] from wild battles regardless of Speed.

Prior to [[Generation VI]], Pokémon that are both {{type|Dark}} and Ghost-type have no weaknesses (excluding {{type|Fighting}} moves used under immunity-negating conditions such as {{DL|In-battle effect item|Ring Target}} or {{a|Scrappy}}), as the resistances of the Dark type cover the weaknesses of Ghost, and vice-versa. In Generation VI, the {{t|Fairy}} type was introduced, which is {{DL|Damage modification|super effective}} against Dark and not resisted by Ghost, so these Pokémon now have a weakness to Fairy.

Ghost types are also unique in the fact that they have a type-specific attack: {{m|Curse}}, which, other than being the only {{type|???}} move before the type was removed in [[Generation V]], works differently for Ghost-type Pokémon than it does for other Pokémon.

===Offense===
Ghost-type Pokémon are used mainly to inflict status effects, like {{status|confusion}} or {{status|burn}}. Contrary to {{type|Dark}}s, most Ghost-type Pokémon are [[special move|special]] attackers due to their typically high {{stat|Special Attack}}, despite the fact that Ghost-type moves were [[physical move]]s prior to [[Generation IV]].

In [[Generation I]], there were no types that resisted Ghost-type moves, although there was {{m|Lick|only one}} move that would be affected by [[same-type attack bonus]]. In [[Generation II]], {{t|Steel}} and Dark were added in order to resist Ghost-type moves. As of [[Generation VI]], the only differences between Dark and Ghost is that Dark-type moves are not very effective on Fighting or Fairy while Ghost-type moves do normal damage to those types, and Ghost-type moves do not affect Normal Pokémon.

Ghost-type moves are great for neutral coverage, as Steel-type Pokémon no longer resist them in Generation VI. No Pokémon resists a combination of {{t|Fighting}} and Ghost-type moves, as the only combination capable of this ({{t|Normal}}/Ghost) has never materialized. A combination of {{t|Fairy}} and Ghost-type moves has nearly as good coverage, only resisted by Normal types with a secondary type that resist Fairy, of which there are currently {{p|Litleo|only}} {{p|Pyroar|two}}. Despite this, Ghost types do not have reliable damaging moves that have 100 or more base [[power]].

===Contest properties===
In {{pkmn|Contest}}s, Ghost-type moves are typically {{OBP|Clever|condition}} moves, but some may be {{OBP|Cute|condition}} or {{OBP|Tough|condition}}. None of them fall under the {{OBP|Beautiful|condition}} condition.

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 35 Ghost-type Pokémon or 4.9% of all Pokémon (counting those that are Ghost-type in at least one of their [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]], including [[Mega Evolution]]s), tied with {{t|Ice}} as the rarest of the eighteen types.

==Abilities==
===Interacting with the Ghost type===
A Pokémon with {{a|Color Change}}, {{a|Protean}}, {{a|Imposter}}, or {{a|Multitype}} will become a Ghost-type Pokémon if (respectively) it is hit with a Ghost-type move, uses a Ghost-type move, is sent out against a Ghost-type opponent, or is holding a {{DL|Plate|Spooky Plate}}.

Since Generation VI, Ghost-type Pokémon are also immune to {{a|Magnet Pull}}, {{a|Arena Trap}}, and {{a|Shadow Tag}}.

==Trivia==
* [[Generation V]] introduced the most Ghost-type Pokémon of any generation, with nine, and [[Generation II]] introduced the fewest Ghost-type Pokémon, with only {{p|Misdreavus|one}}.
* Generation II introduced the most Ghost-type moves of any generation, with four, and Generation V introduced the fewest Ghost-type moves, with only {{m|Hex|one}}.
* In [[Generation I]], Ghost-type moves have no effect on {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon, though an abundance of evidence suggests that this may have been an error. Multiple sources mention that Ghost-type moves are super effective on Psychic-type Pokémon: official strategy guides published by Nintendo, two episodes of the {{pkmn|anime}} ([[EP023|''The Tower of Terror'']] and [[EP024|''Haunter versus Kadabra'']]), and even the games themselves, where a Trainer in the [[Saffron Gym]] mentions that Psychic-type Pokémon "only fear {{t|Bug}}s and Ghosts" (though the reference to Ghost-type Pokémon was removed in {{game|Yellow}}). This was corrected in [[Generation II]] to make Ghost moves actually be super effective against Psychic-type Pokémon.
* There are no Ghost-type moves with an {{stat|accuracy}} lower than 100%.
* While the Ghost type has an immunity to {{type|Normal}} moves, several damaging moves that display as Normal can affect them, including {{m|Hidden Power}} (whose actual type varies) and {{m|Struggle}} (Generation II onwards).
* The only Ghost-type moves with more than 80 base power are {{m|Shadow Force}} and {{m|Phantom Force}}. Both moves take two turns to execute and hit even if the target is protecting itself.
* As of [[Generation VI]], it is not possible for any Pokémon to possess a double resistance to Ghost. The only Pokémon to possess a double resistance in previous generations are {{p|Pawniard}} and {{p|Bisharp}}, both of which are {{t|Dark}}/{{t|Steel}}.
* The Ghost type is the only type immune to two types: Normal and {{t|Fighting}}.
* [[Kalos]] is the only region without a notable Ghost-type specialist.
* In [[Pokémon Conquest]], Ghost-type Pokémon which are not part-{{t|Flying}} or have {{a|Levitate}} are shown with an animation of physically passing through enemies, referencing the common belief that real life ghosts can pass through solid objects. They cannot, however, pass through any other obstacle on the field in-game.
* There are nine Pokémon with unique type combinations that are part Ghost-type - more than any other type.

'''Hitmonlee''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サワムラー''' ''Sawamular'') is a {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Tyrogue}} starting at [[level]] 20 when Tyrogue's {{stat|Attack}} is higher than its {{stat|Defense}}. It is one of {{p|Tyrogue}}'s [[Hitmons|final forms]], the others being {{p|Hitmonchan}} and {{p|Hitmontop}}.

==Biology==
Hitmonlee is a humanoid Pokémon with an ovoid body. Lacking a distinct neck and head, its upper torso has almond-shaped eyes with black rings around them and appears to lack a nose and mouth. Primarily brown, it has cream-colored, segmented arms and legs, with three fingers and three clawed toes respectively. The soles of its feet and its ankles have circular, yellow markings. It is an exclusively male species with no female counterpart.

Hitmonlee's legs freely contract and stretch similar to a coiled spring. This flexibility allows Hitmonlee to run with lengthy strides and gives it greater reach for its kicks. Its excellent sense of balance enables it to kick in succession from any position. After battling, it rubs down its legs to relax the tight muscles. Rare in the wild, it is primarily found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|urban areas.}}

==Trivia==
* Hitmonlee and {{p|Hitmonchan}} are the only Pokémon not previously related through an evolution family that later gained a shared {{p|Tyrogue|pre-evolution}}.
* Hitmonlee has had more [[signature move]]s than any other Pokémon, with four: {{m|Mega Kick}}, {{m|Jump Kick}}, {{m|High Jump Kick}}, and {{m|Rolling Kick}}.
* Hitmonlee is the only Pokémon with a base {{stat|Speed}} of 87.

===Origin===
Hitmonlee may be a personification of {{wp|taekwondo}}, a sport that focuses on kick attacks. Due to its lack of a head, Hitmonlee bears resemblance to mythical {{wp|headless men}} such as the {{wp|Xing Tian}} and the Hindu demon {{wp|Kabandha}}. Based on its Japanese name and kicking attribute, Hitmonlee may also represent Japanese kickboxer {{wp|Tadashi Sawamura}}. From the Japanese names of its Abilities—{{a|Limber|Flexible}}, {{a|Reckless|Life-Risking}} and {{a|Unburden|Acrobatics}}—Hitmonlee may also be based on an {{wp|acrobatics|acrobat}}.

====Name origin====
Hitmonlee is a combination of ''hit'', ''monster'', and ''Lee'' (a reference to {{wp|Bruce Lee}}). The name is also related to {{p|Hitmonchan}} and {{p|Hitmontop}}, both of which are parallel evolutions to it as of [[Generation II]].

Sawamular is derived from {{wp|Tadashi Sawamura}}, a famous kickboxer.

'''Harrison's Sneasel''' (Japanese: '''ハヅキのニューラ''' ''Hazuki's Nyula'') is the only {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} {{Jo|Harrison}} was seen to capture.

==History==
[[File:Harrison Sneasel debut.png|thumb|left|200px|Sneasel as a wild Pokémon]]
Harrison's {{p|Sneasel}} first appeared in ''[[EP265|Pop Goes The Sneasel]]''. It was a wild Pokémon who, with a {{p|Machop}} and {{p|Machoke}} was blocking people from accessing {{p|Ho-Oh}}'s flame. It first appeared when it threatened {{TRT}}, savaging {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} with {{m|Fury Swipes}} and defeating Meowth in a single hit. It then ordered its cronies to send Team Rocket blasting off. It later attacked Ash as he reached the temple, and savagely fought his {{AP|Totodile}}, interrupting its dance with a pair of {{m|Slash}} attacks. It dodged {{m|Water Gun}} and used {{m|Feint Attack}} and {{m|Shadow Ball}} to knock it out.
[[File:Harrison and Sneasel.png|thumb|left|200px|Harrison and Sneasel]]
Team Rocket made a failed attempt to capture Sneasel, but Meowth's bitterness at being replaced caused the plan to fall apart and they defeated themselves. Harrison then ordered Blaziken into battle. Sneasel proved no match for Blaziken's sheer power and type advantage, being knocked out with a {{m|Fire Punch}} to the face. Harrison threw a Poké Ball and captured Sneasel.

Despite being new to his team, Harrison trusted its strength enough to use it in the [[Silver Conference]], where it faced a {{p|Machamp}} and defeated it, despite the significant type disadvantage.
[[File:Ash Totodile Harrison Sneasel.png|thumb|200px|Sneasel losing to Totodile]]
In ''[[EP271|Playing with Fire!]]'', it fought against Ash's Pikachu as Harrison's second Pokémon. It easily used its speed to dodge Thunderbolt and took Pikachu out with Metal Claw. It then fought a rematch with Totodile, who learned from Pikachu's mistake and instead {{m|Bite|bit}} down on Metal Claw. It then danced around while thrashing Sneasel against the ground. A powerful blow from Totodile's tail eliminated Sneasel, causing Totodile to dance in celebration.

==Personality and Characteristics==
Sneasel first appeared to be a very mischievous, stubborn and a strong Pokémon, as it prevented people from accessing {{p|Ho-Oh}}'s flame, despite the fact that the entire [[Silver Conference]] would stand still without the flame. Nevertheless, it lost its attitude upon capture and turned out to be a very reliable and trustworthy Pokémon, to the effect that Harrison chose it to battle {{Ash}} in the [[Silver Conference]].

'''Professor Samuel Oak''' (Japanese: '''オーキド•ユキナリ博士''' ''Dr. Yukinari Okido'') is a [[Pokémon Professor]] and a major supporting character of the [[Pokémon anime]] who lives and works at his [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|research lab]] in [[Pallet Town]]. He appears semi-regularly to give [[Ash Ketchum]] advice to help him achieve his goal of becoming the greatest [[Pokémon Master]].

==History==
===In the [[original series]]===
Professor Oak made his debut in ''[[EP001|Pokémon, I Choose You!]]'', appearing on a late night television show explaining the three [[starter Pokémon]] that Pokémon Trainers would receive. The next day, three Trainers from Pallet Town, including his grandson, [[Gary Oak]], came to [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|his lab]], ready to become [[Pokémon Trainer]]s. Oak gave them each a Starter Pokémon, including giving Gary his {{TP|Gary|Squirtle|Blastoise}}, though this wasn't revealed until much later in the series. Later that same day, Ash came to him as he was also starting his Pokémon journey and needed his first Pokémon as well. But because he was so late, the only Pokémon Oak had left was a rebellious {{AP|Pikachu}}.

He appeared again in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency]]'' where he called the [[Viridian City]] [[Pokémon Center]] after hearing that Ash had already made it there from [[Delia Ketchum|his mother]]. He stated how he was surprised that he had made it that far, and expressed doubts he had when Ash first left. Mentioning making a bet of a million dollars with Gary that Ash hadn't captured any new Pokémon, he was disappointed to hear that this was indeed true and he had lost the bet with his grandson. When Ash told him that he had seen an unknown Pokémon, which resembled the {{p|Articuno|stone carving above him}}, he waved it away as nonsense, saying that Trainers have searched their whole lives for that Pokémon, and none have succeeded.

Over the course of Ash and Gary's journeys, Professor Oak took care of the Pokémon they captured that were sent to his lab. He would often gloat about how much farther ahead his grandson was to Ash, which often caused him to be extra competitive. During the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]], Oak became greatly disappointed when he discovered that Gary had lost in the third round, but decided to look on the bright side, telling Misty and Brock that it would do Gary good to learn that "every road, no matter how smooth, has its bumps along the way". He had arrived with Ash's mother with the goal of cheering Ash on in mind.

After the end of the Indigo Plateau Conference, Professor Oak asked Ash to pick up a [[GS Ball|mysterious Poké Ball]] from his friend, [[Professor Ivy]], who lived on [[Valencia Island]] in the [[Orange Archipelago]]. He wasn't at all surprised when Ash called him asking if he could compete in the [[Orange League]]. Though he wanted to study the GS Ball, he also wanted Ash to compete in the league so that he can get more training. During Ash's adventures in the Orange Islands, he befriended a [[Pokémon watcher]] by the name of [[Tracey Sketchit]] who was a great admirer of Professor Oak. When they arrived back in Pallet Town, Tracey asked if he could become his assistant which he graciously accepted.

Not being able to discover the mystery behind the GS Ball, Professor Oak called for Ash's assistance once more and asked him to travel to the [[Johto]] region and give the Ball to his friend [[Kurt]]. He also explained that there were many new Pokémon out west which made Ash all the more eager to go and catch up with his rival, Gary.

Professor Oak traveled to Johto on a couple of occasions for conferences, most notably during Ash and Gary's battles in the Pokemon League Silver Conference.

===In the {{series|Advanced Generation}}===
Professor Oak made a few appearances during the ''Advanced Generation'' as well and was in a few episodes of the [[Weekly Pokémon Broadcasting Station]]'s [[List of side story episodes#Weekly Pokémon Broadcasting Station|side story episodes]].

In ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule the School]]'', he was lecturing the students of {{ci|Rustboro}}'s [[Pokémon Trainer's School]] via satellite. Oak traveled to [[Hoenn]] in ''[[AG071|A Six Pack Attack!]]'' to meet with his friend, [[Professor Birch]] and brought along the [[starter Pokémon#Kanto|Kanto starters]] as they interacted with the [[starter Pokémon#Hoenn|Hoenn starters]].

In ''[[AG133|The Right Place and The Right Mime]]'', Professor Oak noticed that one of his {{TP|May|Squirtle}} felt most comfortable being with {{an|May}}. That was when he suggested that May keep the Squirtle and raise it into a strong Pokémon. He also said he would watch after her {{TP|May|Bulbasaur}}.

In ''[[AG187|The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing!]]'', when Ash was still recovering from his defeat at the Battle Pyramid, Professor Oak brought him a special package meant to cheer him up, containing a poster with the [[Footprint|prints]] of {{cat|Ash's Pokémon|his Pokémon}}, a [[Misty's special lure|fishing lure]] from {{an|Misty}}, and food from {{Delia|his mother}}. He also handed Ash a postcard from {{Gary}} and told him that his grandson was doing research in the [[Sinnoh]] [[region]] and that many {{cat|Generation IV Pokémon|Pokémon who live there}} cannot be found anywhere else. Later, he was asked to judge the impromptu [[Contest Battle]] between May and [[Drew]]. Along with [[Scott]], he judged their battle, which ended in a victory for Drew after his {{TP|Drew|Roselia}} and {{p|Butterfree}} [[Fainting|knocked out]] [[May's Combusken]] and {{TP|May|Skitty}}.

===In the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}===
[[File:Professor Oak DP anime.png|thumb|left|250px|Professor Oak in the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}]]
Ash spoke to Professor Oak regularly over the phone while he traveled through the [[Sinnoh]] [[region]]. {{an|Dawn}} was able to recognize him from [[television]], but it was because of his Pokémon poetry and not his research.

In ''[[DP105|Get Your Rotom Running!]]'', Oak suggested that Ash and {{ashfr}} should visit the [[Old Chateau]] to sample its famous delicacy, the {{DL|Status condition healing item|Old Gateau}}.

[[File:Professor Oak Twinleaf Festival.png|thumb|200px|Professor Oak in the Twinleaf Festival]]
In ''[[DP138|Strategy Begins at Home!]]'', Ash called Professor Oak while staying at [[Johanna]]'s house and said he would be {{pkmn|training}} in [[Twinleaf Town]] for a while. Oak told him to use this opportunity to learn from Johanna, as her experience as a {{DL|Grand Festival|Top Coordinator}} could be helpful to him. Oak also announced that he would be attending the [[Twinleaf Festival]] as a special guest.

In ''[[DP139|A Faux Oak Finish!]]'', he traveled to Sinnoh to give a lecture on "the interrelation of {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and [[Evolutionary stone]]s" on the first day of the Twinleaf Festival. However, on his way to Twinleaf Town, his car got a flat tire and forced him to make a stop near a marshland. While the driver was replacing the tire, Oak decided to explore the area. He found a group of [[wild Pokémon]] who led him to a [[cave]] where a depressed {{p|Lombre}} was hiding. Oak found out why Lombre was so sad and gave it a {{evostone|Water Stone}}, allowing it to [[Evolution|evolve]] into {{p|Ludicolo}} and immediately taking it out of its depressed state.

Meanwhile in Twinleaf, [[James]] was in the town's auditorium disguised as Oak plotting to steal all of the attendees' Pokémon. When Oak arrived there, everyone in the auditorium looked confused as James insisted he was the real Professor Oak. Seeing this, a {{pkmn|Trainer}} in the audience sent out his {{p|Tyranitar}} and asked for help, saying he was having trouble with the {{pkmn|category|Armor Pokémon}}. James failed to figure out what was the cause of the problem and was sent blasting off by Tyranitar, but Oak was able to help the Pokémon by removing a thorn from its foot. After that, Professor Oak proceeded to give his lecture.

===In the {{series|Best Wishes}}===
[[File:Professor Oak BW anime.png|250px|thumb|Professor Oak in the {{series|Best Wishes}}]]
Professor Oak was given a major redesign in the ''Best Wishes'' series, using a different shirt collar style and wearing his labcoat above it. His hairstyle also changed, becoming more boxy. These changes make his look closely resemble his most recent [[Professor Oak|game counterpart]] artwork.

Oak made plans to travel to the [[Unova]] region to meet with his friend, [[Professor Juniper]], in ''[[BW001|In The Shadow of Zekrom!]]'' and invited {{Delia}} and {{Ash}} to go with him. He has since returned to Kanto as seen in ''[[BW047|Crisis from the Underground Up!]]'' where Ash calls his laboratory from [[Nimbasa City]].

In ''[[BW109|New Places... Familiar Faces!]]'', Ash called Professor Oak to inform about his loss at the [[Vertress Conference]]. In ''[[BW116|The Fires of a Red-Hot Reunion!]]'', the Professor appeared again in a video lecture about the Kanto starter Pokémon that was presented at the [[Kanto Fair]], accompanied by [[Tracey]]. Later, [[Ash's Charizard]] came to his lab from the [[Charicific Valley]] so Ash would switch him for [[Ash's Unfezant|his Unfezant]]. Oak liked the idea of Unfezant being with him, as she could make good friends with Ash's [[Ash's Noctowl|Noctowl]] and [[Ash's Staraptor|Staraptor]].

In ''[[BW128|To Catch a Rotom!]]'', he appeared in the [[Decolore Islands]], having traveled to [[Torom Island]]. Professor Oak wished to capture a {{p|Rotom}} to study, and eventually succeeded after helping Ash and {{ashfr}} defeat {{TRT}}.

As seen in ''[[BW130|Butterfree and Me!]]'', Professor Juniper sent Ash's Pokémon caught in Unova to Oak's laboratory; Ash contacted Oak to get [[Ash's Leavanny|Leavanny]] sent to him to help a Caterpie evolve.

In ''[[BW142|The Dream Continues!]]'' Professor Oak was interviewed by [[Alexa]], a reporter from the [[Kalos]] region which gave him a chance to see Pokémon from there much to his delight. He was later present when Ash announced his intention to return with Alexa to Kalos to challenge its league. As usual, Professor Oak was entrusted with the care of the Pokémon Ash had caught in Unova, as well as Charizard who would be remaining at the lab permanently from then on.

===In the {{series|XY}}===
Professor Oak appeared briefly in ''[[XY003|A Battle of Aerial Mobility!]]'', where he was introduced to {{AP|Froakie}} before being shocked by Rotom.

He was later mentioned in ''[[XY006|Battling on Thin Ice!]]'', where it was revealed that Ash and {{an|Serena}} both attended his Pokémon Summer Camp during their childhood; and in ''[[XY125|A League of His Own!]]'', where Ash mentions he was thinking of asking him to send one of the Pokémon at his corral.

In [[XY140]], he joined in on a video call with Delia to Ash and his friends, where he learned Ash was going to return to Pallet Town later that day.

[[File:Professor Oak SM anime.png|250px|thumb|Professor Oak in the {{series|Sun & Moon}}]]
===In the {{series|Sun & Moon}}===
After winning a trip to the [[Alola]] region, Delia and Ash headed to Professor Oak's lab, where he received Ash's on-hand Pokémon and took the opportunity to entrust Delia with a [[Pokémon Egg]]. He asked her to deliver the egg to his cousin [[Samson Oak]], at the [[Pokémon School]] on [[Melemele Island]].

After meeting with Delia in ''[[SM001|Alola to New Adventure!]]'', Samson made a video call to the Professor and notified him the egg arrived safely.

==Character==
Professor Oak lives up the road from [[Delia Ketchum]] and {{Ash|her son}}, and he and Delia often appear together as they are good friends. His known relatives are his grandson [[Gary Oak|Gary]] and his cousin [[Samson Oak|Samson]].

His often-forgetful attitude and other antics are also notorious. He also has a hobby of composing [[Professor Oak's Pokémon Lecture|senryū]], haiku-like poems about Pokémon or Pokémon-related themes.

In the novelizations written by [[Takeshi Shudō]], Professor Oak comes from a prestigious family. He has two brothers, one of whom is the mayor of Pallet Town while the other is its postmaster, and his grandfather was the first Trainer from Pallet Town to receive widespread recognition, while Samuel himself gained prominence after he published a research paper on Pokémon at the age of 20. It is also stated that he became a professor at [[Celadon University]] at the age of 25. According to Professor Elm, Professor Oak's studies and research mostly focus on how humans and Pokémon interact with each other.

[[File:Sammy Oak.png|250px|thumb|Sam]]
{{main|Sam}}
He appears as a young boy, '''Sam''' (Japanese: '''ユキナリ''' ''Yukinari'') in the fourth [[Pokémon movie|film]], ''[[M04|Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]''. [[Ash Ketchum]] befriends the young Oak, who, because he time-traveled from 40 years in the past, is around the same age as Ash. The revelation that Sam ''is'' Oak, while inferable thanks to disclosure of Oak's first name in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'', comes only at the end of the movie when Oak implicitly confirms the connection through his knowledge of Sam's name despite Ash having never told him of it. Additionally, Tracey finds the sketchbook in which young Sam drew Pikachu sleeping with Celebi in Oak's closet.

Despite the fact that Sam sees many {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} throughout the movie (notably the {{pkmn2|Mythical}} {{p|Celebi}} and the {{pkmn2|Legendary}} {{p|Suicune}}), the [[Pokédex]] he gifts Ash in the Kanto arc only catalogs {{cat|Generation I Pokémon}}, claiming that they are all the Pokémon that the world knows. This discrepancy is likely no longer canon, instead representing a silent {{wp|retcon}} that occurred due to the ever-increasing number of Pokémon; indeed, Pokémon from [[Generation II]], [[Generation III]], and [[Generation IV]] are able to be trained in Kanto during the Generation I remakes FireRed and LeafGreen, as well as during the Generation II remakes HeartGold and SoulSilver. Perhaps to avoid a similar plothole, the number of Pokémon as of the current generation is no longer explicitly mentioned in anime-related media.

===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
[[File:Professor Oak EToP.png|thumb|200px|Professor Oak in The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]
Professor Oak makes a few appearances in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] manga. He is a role model to {{Ash}} and is [[Bill]]'s mentor. Unlike in the anime, he does not give Ash his {{AP|Pikachu}}; in fact, he does not meet Ash until after he has already begun his Pokémon journey.

Ash meets Professor Oak for the first time in ''[[ET03|Clefairy Tale]]''. They meet at [[Mt. Moon]] after Ash has been wandering lost in the mountains for weeks, searching for a rare {{p|Clefairy}}. Oak, who has been living among the Clefairy, rescues Ash and introduces him to Bill and a tribe of wild Clefairy. The three attend the tribe's [[evolution]] ceremony, after which Oak gives Ash the latest upgrade to the Pokédex for free, months before it will be available to the public.

Ash later encounters Oak again in ''[[ET10|Clefairy in Space]]'', where he is investigating strange activity, which turned out to be caused by another group of Clefairy.

Ash encounters Oak one last time at the Pokémon Research Center in ''[[ET14|The Orange Islands]]'', shortly before he travels to the [[Orange Archipelago]]. Here, the Professor and Bill are researching a {{pkmn2|giant}} {{p|Slowpoke}} that was found in the [[Pokémon Storage System]].

In this canon, Oak first began his Pokémon journey when he was six years old, in which he traveled with his father (who was also a Professor) on research expeditions. During his first journey, he caught a {{p|Charmander}} which eventually evolved into a {{p|Charmeleon}} and then a {{p|Charizard}}.

PokeWizardCali: =Paul, Barry, Ritchie etc haven't caught nearly as many Pokemon as Gary. Also it's rude to just flat out revert a good edit. It has been like that for a month so no one else saw an issue with my contribution

'''Gary Oak''' (Japanese: '''オーキド・シゲル''' ''Shigeru Okido'') is a recurring character in the [[Pokémon anime]]. He is a [[Pokémon Researcher]] from [[Pallet Town]] and grandson of {{an|Professor Oak}}. He is a childhood friend and former [[rival]] of [[Ash Ketchum]]. His Japanese name is derived from [[Shigeru Miyamoto]].

==History==
Gary has been a neighbor of [[Ash Ketchum]] since they were both young. At one time they seemed to be friends and went to see movies together as seen in ''[[AG086|Lights, Camerupt, Action!]]''. Shortly after the both of them started on their journeys, Gary and Ash found an old [[Poké Ball]] while fishing. The two boys began fighting over who would get to keep the Poké Ball but ended up breaking it in half. Since then, they decided to keep the two separate pieces for themselves. It was revealed in ''[[EP269|The Ties That Bind]]'' that they still carried the pieces with them.

===In the [[original series]]===
[[File:Younger Gary Oak.png|thumb|left|220px|Young Gary]]
Gary made his debut appearance in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'', where he went to [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]] along with two other [[Pokémon Trainer]]s before {{Ash}} did. After choosing his [[starter Pokémon]], he left [[Pallet Town]] with his {{TP|Gary|cheerleaders}} on a sporty red convertible. Gary is referenced again in the episode ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]'', however it is said that he had a battle with the Samurai in ''[[EP004|Challenge of the Samurai]]'' and the [[EP007|next episode]] was one of the trainers who beat the Sensational Sisters.

Gary make another appearance in ''[[EP012|Here Comes the Squirtle Squad]]'' and ''[[EP018|Beauty and the Beach]]''. In the first, he is seen through a town as Ash search for help and the next Gary is seen to be taking part in the beauty contest with their cheerleaders.

As Ash kept in touch with {{an|Professor Oak}}, he has informed Ash about Gary being ahead of him with the amount of {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} he caught and [[Badges]] he received.

In ''[[EP031|Dig Those Diglett!]]'', Gary was one of the Trainers who decided to help out the [[foreman]] in getting rid of the {{p|Diglett}}. Gary attempted to send out a Pokémon but the Pokémon did not exit the [[Poké Ball]], thus having the Diglett return it to him. As he tried other Pokémon, they did not come out of their Poké Balls too and the Diglett returned them to him. Since his Pokémon did not want to battle the Diglett, he deemed it pointless to stay and left with his cheerleaders in the convertible.

In ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]'', Gary went digging for [[Fossil]]s in [[Grampa Canyon]].
[[File:Gary and Oak.png|thumb|right|220px|Gary and his grandfather]]

Gary appeared in the episode ''[[EP058|Riddle Me This]]''.

Prior to the events of ''[[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]]'', he had received ten Badges. He went to the [[Viridian Gym]] and took on the [[Gym Leader]], {{an|Giovanni}}. At first he seemed to be winning against Giovanni, knocking out his {{p|Golem}} and {{p|Kingler}} with {{p|Nidoking}} and {{TP|Gary|Arcanine}}, respectively. But then Giovanni sent out {{OBP|Mewtwo|original series}} against the Trainer and even let Gary use both his Pokémon against him. Mewtwo made quick work of the two Pokémon and Gary ended up losing.

[[File:Gary Oak OS.png|thumb|left||220px|Gary in the original series]]
When Ash and {{ashfr}} went inside the Gym, they found Gary lying down, suffering from the defeat of Giovanni and Mewtwo. Gary explained to Ash about the Mewtwo that is evil even though Ash denied the fact. Afterwards, Gary watched Ash's battle with {{TRT}}. Following the battle, the Gym started to collapse and Gary and the others were able to flee the building.

In ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-ké Corral]]'', Gary returned to Pallet Town and headed to the lobby of Professor Oak's Laboratory. Professor Oak mentioned to both Ash and Gary that they were the top Trainers in contrast to the other two who left the same time as them as they couldn't compare with their battling skills. Professor Oak showed Ash Gary's collection of Pokémon. Although Ash had seen more Pokemon, Gary had managed to catch a far greater amount. After Team Rocket was defeated, he promised Ash that they would have their battle at the Pokémon League.

In ''[[EP074|All Fired Up!]]'', Gary met up with Ash in the Pokémon League in [[Indigo Plateau]]. He departed the area after claiming he would get ''Loseritis''. The next day, he was seen in the stadium with the other Trainers and Ash. He did not stay that long as his opponent, [[Melissa]], defeated Gary's Nidoking using her Golem, which eliminated him from the Pokémon League. Following the loss, he left on another journey.

Gary eventually returned from that journey in ''[[EP115|A Tent Situation]]''. Much unlike his former self, he congratulated Ash on his victory in the [[Orange League]]. Ash challenged him to a battle in the [[EP116|next episode]] with his {{AP|Pikachu}} as his choice. Gary in turn used his {{TP|Gary|Eevee}}. Gary managed to defeat Ash and then left on his journey through [[Johto]].

Gary appeared in ''[[EP121|Illusion Confusion!]]''.

In ''[[EP171|Power Play]]'', he battled a Trainer named [[Alex Davis]] with his {{TP|Gary|Umbreon}}, which had evolved from Eevee prior to events of this episode. Gary was able to defeat Alex and his {{p|Alakazam}}. The battle made Ash want to challenge Gary next, but Gary refused and walked off. Ash sent out his other Pokémon to battle Gary's Umbreon instead of Pikachu but he already left. At the campsite, Gary and Umbreon noticed a blackout in a town Ash and his friends were in. Gary and Umbreon jumped into the rescue of the Power Plant when the Robo-Mecha Wobbuffet was attacking it. Following the mecha's defeat, Gary worked with Ash and his friends to get the power back on.

In ''[[EP228|Extreme Pokémon!]]'', he was practicing with Arcanine for the [[Extreme Pokémon Race]]. He then entered the race and competed against Ash and his {{AP|Bayleef}}. They were both in the lead but Ash was able to narrowly win the race.

Gary arrived in {{jo|Silver Town}} in ''[[EP266|A Claim to Flame!]]'' to compete in the Pokémon League. He greeted Ash and exchanged pleasantries, promising to get to the top and defeat Ash. Gary was able to get past the screening round along with Ash and {{jo|Harrison}}.

In ''[[EP269|The Ties That Bind]]'' and ''[[EP270|Can't Beat the Heat!]]'', he battled Ash at the [[Silver Conference]]. Ash ended up winning the battle when his {{AP|Charizard}} defeated Gary's Blastoise. With this, the two became friends again.

In ''[[EP272|Johto Photo Finish]]'', Gary decided that he didn't want to be a Pokémon Trainer anymore, but instead wanted to be a [[Pokémon Professor|Pokémon researcher]] like his grandfather.

===In the {{series|Advanced Generation}}===
In ''[[SS015|Putting the Air Back in Aerodactyl!]]'', Gary worked on [[Sayda Island]] with [[Dora]]. There, he revived an {{p|Aerodactyl}} from an [[Old Amber]]. At first the Aerodactyl was afraid of him and every other person on the island, but Gary soon gained its trust after he fed it some fruit that Aerodactyl used to eat.

Eventually, he moved to the [[Sinnoh]] region where he is currently conducting his research. He sent a postcard to Ash from there in ''[[AG187|The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing!]]'', which motivated Ash to not to get himself down after a loss and keep fighting, much like he did during their rivalry.

In ''[[AG192|Home Is Where The Start Is!]]'', Gary reunited with Ash and battled him with his {{TP|Gary|Electivire}} and defeated Ash's Pikachu once more.

[[File:Gary Oak DP.png|thumb|220px|Gary in the ''Diamond & Pearl'' series]]

===In the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}===
During his time in Sinnoh, Gary became an assistant of [[Professor Rowan]]. As before, Gary conducts his research on rare Pokémon, including [[Fossil|Fossil Pokémon]] and [[Legendary Pokémon]]. Gary demonstrated more maturity and more respect for other people, especially with Ash. Upon meeting him, {{an|Dawn}} thought that he was a poet like his {{an|Professor Oak|grandfather}}.

In ''[[DP045|Ill-Will Hunting!]]'' he was taking care of a group of {{p|Shieldon}} and protected them from the evil [[Pokémon Hunter]] [[J]] and [[J's henchmen|her minions]], Gary and Ash were forced to join forces to defeat the enemy, even though Ash has been against it. However, thanks to the efforts of the two they managed to save Shieldon from the hands of J.

He appeared again in ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]'' where he helped Ash and {{AP|Gligar}} by giving a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Razor Fang}} to Ash which caused Gligar to [[Evolution|evolve]] later. He was in the area after hearing rumors of {{p|Azelf}}, whom Ash had seen earlier at [[Lake Valor]].

Gary later appeared in ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'' and ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', working alongside Professor Rowan at [[Valor Lakefront]] where he attempted to protect Azelf from Pokémon Hunter J and [[Team Galactic]]; however, he was unable to defeat [[Saturn]] in battle. He later monitored the changes around [[Mt. Coronet]] caused by [[Cyrus]]'s attempts to summon {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}.

===In the {{series|Best Wishes}}===
Gary later reappeared in a flashback in ''[[BW142|The Dream Continues!]]''.

==Character==
[[File:Ash and Gary.png|thumb|220px|Gary and Ash]]
The day he started out on his Pokémon journey, he came off as an arrogant Trainer, much like his {{pkmn|games|game}} counterpart, {{ga|Blue}}. His chosen [[starter Pokémon]] was {{TP|Gary|Squirtle}}, which was actually the same Pokémon that Ash originally wanted to start with. He even had a group of [[Gary's cheerleaders|cheerleaders]] who cheered him on in all his battles and would go so far as crying whenever he lost. He didn't walk on his journeys like most Trainers did; instead he had his own sporty red convertible with a chauffeur. Gary loved when he got a chance to make fun of Ash by bragging about how far behind Ash was compared to him. He also gave Ash the pet-name of "Ashy-boy" (Japanese: {{tt|"Satoshi''-kun''"|Satoshi is Ash's Japanese name and ''-kun'' is a Japanese honorific, kun can be considered insulting when not used among friends}}), which occasionally seems to annoy him. His style of training at this point was to capture many Pokémon and to use the strongest, as a stark contrast to Ash, who focused on developing a bond with his Pokémon.

His arrogance continued overtime during Ash’s journey in Kanto until he challenged the [[Viridian City]] [[Gym Leader]], {{an|Giovanni}}, to a Pokémon battle for his final (but not necessary) Badge in ''[[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]]'' where he was brutally defeated by {{OBP|Mewtwo|original series}}. However, this still didn't change his arrogance. It would take a loss at the [[Pokémon League]] way later on against [[Melissa]] for him to finally realize that he greatly needed to change himself.

In his few appearances during the Johto season, he seemed to have grown more polite and respectful to others, including Ash.

==Pokémon==
Since the very start of his own journey, Gary has shown exceptional skill as a Pokémon Trainer, catching and training an astonishing number and variety of strong Pokémon in a short period of time and losing battles very infrequently. However, since retiring as a Pokémon Trainer to become a researcher, it isn't known if he continues to catch new Pokémon often.

This listing is for Gary's {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} as of ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]''.

Oak then also showed Ash Gary's Krabby, which was way [[Giant Pokémon|bigger]] than Ash's.

Gary's Krabby was briefly seen again in ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-ké Corral]]'', where Gary compared its size to Ash's Krabby's size.

When {{TRT}} tried to steal Mrs. and [[Mr. Shellby]]'s [[Pokémon Egg]]s, Gary used Arcanine's {{m|Flame Wheel}} to send them blasting off. After this the race continued, and finally Ash, using his {{AP|Bayleef}}, proved victorious.

Gary later used Arcanine in the [[Silver Conference]]. He sent it out against [[Ash's Snorlax]], but Snorlax managed to defeat Arcanine with a {{m|Hyper Beam}}.}}

==Trivia==
* Gary is one of the few characters from the {{series|original}} who appeared during both dubs of the anime to have his English dub voice remain unchanged, always being voiced by [[Carter Cathcart|Jimmy Zoppi]] who was credited as [[Carter Cathcart|Billy Beach]] during Gary's appearances after [[4Kids Entertainment]] stopped dubbing the anime.
* In the [[original series]], Gary's attire is similar to {{ga|Blue}}'s during [[Generation I|Generations I]] and {{gen|II}}. In his {{series2|Advanced Generation}} and {{series2|Diamond & Pearl}} appearances, Gary wears Blue's outfit from {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. Interestingly, the cape he adorns in the [[OK!|third opening]] and in [[EP115]] resembles the one worn by his cross-canon manga counterpart {{adv|Blue}} in the {{chap|Yellow}}. The only attire Gary has yet to be seen wearing is Blue's outfit from {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}.
* Gary is the only one of Ash's rivals to appear in a Pokémon movie, aside from the credits, appearing briefly in ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''.
* Gary owns the final evolutionary forms of each of the special Pokémon that can appear on {{rt|201|Sinnoh}} via [[dual-slot mode]], [[Pokémon outbreak|swarming]], or the [[Poké Radar]] (Arcanine, Nidoking, Nidoqueen, and Dodrio).
* In [[Pokémon Stickers series 1]], a sticker depicting Gary identifies him as "Bailey".
* Gary is currently the only one out of Ash's three main rivals to have never battled a Champion.
* Although Ash's flashback in ''[[AG086|Lights, Camerupt, Action!]]'' seems to suggest that Gary and Ash were childhood friends, this is contradicted by Gary's conversation with Ash in ''[[EP001|Pokemon - I Choose You!]]'' when they first started off on their Pokémon journey, which indicated that that was the first time the both of them met.
* In ''[[Pocket Monsters: The Animation]]'', it is revealed that, aside from his being Professor Oak's grandson, he is also the grandnephew of Pallet Town's mayor. It also explains that his girlfriends are the mayor's electoral staff.

==Trivia==
* Throh and {{p|Sawk}} draw parallels to the [[Generation I]] Pokémon {{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Hitmonchan}}, in that they are {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon that appear to be related to each other.
* In both the anime and [[PokéPark 2: Wonders Beyond]], Throh is slightly taller than Sawk despite being {{tt|four inches|0.1 meter}} shorter than him according to the [[Pokédex]].
* Throh and its {{p|Sawk|counterpart}} were designed by [[Ken Sugimori]].

===Origin===
Throh is based on a {{wp|judo}} expert or ''judoka'', and an {{wp|Oni (folklore)|oni}}.

According to interviews with [[Ken Sugimori]] in ''Nintendo Dream'', in development, Sawk and Throh both had horns, making them look more like oni. However, they were replaced with eyebrows so as not to clash with {{p|Tornadus}} and {{p|Thundurus}}, who both were originally designed to be red and blue, like Throh and Sawk.

====Name origin====
Throh is a corruption of ''throw''.

Nageki is a combination of 投げる ''nageru'' (to throw) and 撃 ''geki'' (strike). It may also involve 鬼 ''ki'' ({{wp|Oni (folklore)|demon}}).

PokeWizardCali: /* History */ Definitely an important part of Gary's journey and rivalry with Ash

Core series

2016-10-31T23:28:16Z

PokeWizardCali: /* Intro */ have to account for sun and moon

The '''core series'''<ref>[https://iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/#/3ds/pokemonxy/0/1 Iwata Asks : Pokémon X & Pokémon Y : Pokémon Born Anew]</ref><ref>[http://www.ign.com/articles/2011/02/16/pokemons-master-speaks Pokemon's Master Speaks - IGN]</ref> of the [[Pokémon games]] or '''core games'''<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20131008075239/http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/vg_pokemonxy_gf_interview-2013-10-04/ Inside the Minds behind Pokémon! | News | Pokemon.com]</ref>, commonly referred to as the '''main series''' or '''mainline games''' by fans, is the game series that is always released on a [[Nintendo]] {{wp|Handheld game console|handheld system}} and developed by [[Game Freak]], which follow the (usually) standard model of a {{player}}'s journey through a specific [[region]] to catch and raise {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, battle {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, earn [[Badge]]s from [[Gym Leader]]s, and defeat the [[Pokémon League]] to enter the [[Hall of Fame]] there. Although Pokemon Sun and Moon will not feature Gyms or a traditional Pokemon League, the majority of the mechanics will remain the same and the games are still considered main series.

Counting each game individually, there are currently 24 games in the series internationally, 25 in Japan, and 15 in {{pmin|South Korea}}. Counting paired individual games as a single release, there are currently 14 games in the series internationally, 15 in Japan, and 8 in South Korea.

Prior to [[Generation VI]], it was standard for the Western releases of the core series games to include the label ''Version'' in their title, although this was seldom used by the Japanese releases. In Japanese and Korean, the series is called the '''''Pocket Monsters Series''''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスターシリーズ'''<ref>[https://www.pokemon.co.jp/game-series/ ゲームポケットモンスターシリーズ | ポケットモンスターオフィシャルサイト]</ref>, Korean: '''포켓몬스터 시리즈'''<ref>[http://pokemonkorea.co.kr/?inc=game-game_list&GameGroup=P 포켓몬 공식 사이트]</ref>), as core series games all contain the full name ''Pocket Monsters'' (Japanese: ポケットモンスター, Korean: 포켓몬스터) in their title, whereas side series and [[Spin-off Pokémon games|spin-off games]] use the abbreviation ''Pokémon'' (Japanese: ポケモン, Korean: 포켓몬) in the title instead. However, the Japanese releases of the [[Pokémon Stadium series]] use ''Pocket Monsters'' in English subtitles, despite the titles using ''Pokémon'' in {{wp|kana}}.

==Classification==
===Content model===
While there are no strict rules that make a game a core series game, and previously assumed rules are continuously broken, the games generally have a similar plot and mechanics.

The {{player}} begins the game in a small town or city of a given [[region]], having no {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} of their own. Through a course of events, the player will receive a [[starter Pokémon]] from the region's [[Pokémon Professor]]; the starter Pokémon is always a choice of three, a {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Fire}}, or {{t|Water}} type, and the character who will become the player's [[rival]] will choose (or already have) the Pokémon whose [[type]] is {{DL|Damage modification|super effective}} against that of the player's choice. (The exceptions to this are {{game|Yellow}}, in which the player starts with {{p|Pikachu}} and the rival starts with {{p|Eevee}}, and {{game|Black and White|s}}, in which the player has two rivals, who each choose one of the starter Pokémon not picked by the player.)

After this point, the player begins to journey across the entire region (each with their own cities and towns, themselves connected by [[route]]s), {{pkmn2|caught|capturing}} any [[wild Pokémon]] he or she chooses to, and using a [[party]] he or she assembles to take on the eight [[Gym Leader]]s of the region. Alongside encounters with both other {{pkmn|Trainer}}s and repeated interactions with their rival, the player must also stop the plans of a [[Villainous teams|villainous team]], which often involve the manipulation of [[Legendary Pokémon]].

After all eight Gym Leaders have been defeated, the player can enter the [[Pokémon League]], where the [[Elite Four]] and {{pkmn|Champion}} await challengers. The Champion of the region is often introduced prior to the player's Pokémon League challenge, and may aid the player as he or she continues his or her adventure.

Though the game can be considered over as soon as the player has defeated the Champion, there is still post-game content. Often there is a post-game plotline and locations and facilities that could not be previously accessed. Since Pokémon Crystal, there is usually at least one facility specifically dedicated to {{pkmn|battle|battling}}. The overarching goal is the completion of the [[Pokédex]]; after this has been done, the player will receive a [[diploma]] for completing the [[regional Pokédex]] and, starting in [[Generation III]], another for completing the [[National Pokédex]]. Another task was added in [[Generation III]] in order to fully complete the game: obtaining all {{ga|Trainer Card}} [[Trainer stars|stars]].

Another element that characterizes a core series game is that the geography of regions includes at least one [[water route]], a mountain, several [[cave]]s, a [[forest]], as well as a final route leading up to the Pokémon League called [[Victory Road]].

===Release model===
While releases continue to break patterns, the release of core series games tends to follow a pattern.

When a [[generation]] of [[Pokémon games]] begins, a pair of games is always released. These paired versions feature virtually the same storyline as each other, but the [[Game-exclusive Pokémon|available Pokémon]] differ, and some other elements are usually slightly different. This encourages [[Trade|trading]], as it is required in order to complete the [[Pokédex]].

During the first four generations, a solitary follow-up game was later released that takes place in the same [[region]]. It typically lacks certain {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that were available in one or both of the original paired versions; thus, a {{player}} of a follow-up must link together with the original pair to complete the Pokédex as well. [[Generation V]] broke with tradition by releasing {{game3|Black and White|a second pair of games|s 2}} as a sequel to the {{game3|Black and White|primary paired versions|s}}, while [[Generation VI]] was the first to entirely forego any follow-up to the original pair.

Sometimes, a secondary set of paired versions that are [[remake]]s of earlier titles may also be released.

===Pokémon===
Most [[generation]]s introduce {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from previously released Pokémon. [[Legendary Pokémon]] with myths specific to the region are almost always included, and frequently appear in [[Legendary duo|duos]] and [[Legendary trio|trios]].

In all generations, there are some Pokémon that cannot be encountered until after the {{player}} enters the [[Hall of Fame]]. These may be legendary Pokémon, such as {{p|Mewtwo}}, or simply Pokémon that are not part of the game's [[regional Pokédex]].

Before the release of a new generation, new Pokémon are often used to promote the new {{pkmn|games}} by including them in the {{pkmn|anime}} or in [[Spin-off Pokémon games|spin-off games]].

===Box art===
The box art for each game features one {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} which was introduced in that [[generation]] (or, in the case of [[remake]]s, the generation of the original games). This Pokémon is referred to by fans as a [[game mascot]], and with the exception of [[Generation I]] and its {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|remakes|s}}, it is always the [[Legendary Pokémon]] available in that game at the climax of the storyline.

In terms of the artwork itself, the international {{game|Red and Blue|s}} and all releases of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, {{game|Black and White|s}}, and {{g|X and Y}} use their game mascot's original [[Ken Sugimori]] artwork for their box art, whereas all other core series games use specially made artwork.

==List of core series games==
In {{pmin|South Korea}}, only {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} were released prior to the foundation of Nintendo of Korea and Pokémon Korea in 2006. The first core series game release after this was {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} in 2008.

==Timeline==
{{main|History of the Pokémon world}}
Several pieces of content in the core series Pokémon games depend on the games having a timeline, but a complete timeline cannot be drawn from the games themselves. In May 2014, [[Game Freak]] employee [[Toshinobu Matsumiya]] posted a timeline of the core series Pokémon games on Twitter;<ref>[https://archive.is/D9iPz archive.is] (archived from [https://twitter.com/matsumiyan/status/464052839870787584 the original])</ref> the tweet, however, has since been deleted.

The plot of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} and {{game|Red and Green|s}} are contemporaneous. They are then followed by the equally contemporaneous plot of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} and {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, which are set three years later. {{game|Black and White|s}} are set an unspecified amount of time after those games. [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]] are set two years after those games, and are contemporaneous with {{g|X and Y}}.

It is unknown if the aforementioned timeline also applies to all solitary versions and [[remake]]s. Furthermore, [[Zinnia]] suggests that there are {{wp|Multiverse|alternate universes}}.

==Unused trademarks==
[[Nintendo]], [[Creatures]], and [[Game Freak]] have trademarked several titles in the {{wp|Japan Patent Office}} which have not currently been used but which fit the naming scheme of the core series games. The following information comes from the Japan Platform for Patent Information ([https://www.j-platpat.inpit.go.jp/web/all/top/BTmTopPage Japanese], [https://www.j-platpat.inpit.go.jp/web/all/top/BTmTopEnglishPage English]):

{{wp|Topaz}}, {{wp|tourmaline}}, {{wp|Moonstone (gemstone)|moonstone}}, and {{wp|emerald}} (by virtue of Delta Emerald) are all names of minerals, while the rest are names of colors. Additionally, {{wp|vermilion}}, {{wp|crimson}}, and {{wp|Scarlet (color)|scarlet}} are all shades of red.

Contrary to popular belief, the name '''WaterBlue''' was not trademarked. According to the Japan Platform for Patent Information, '''ウォーターブルー''' and '''WATER BLUE''' (application number 2010-060625, registration number 5386853) are trademarks of {{wp|Meiji Seika}}, a Japanese pharmaceutical company. However, [[Game Freak]]'s [[Junichi Masuda]] did mention "WaterBlue" in 2004 on a blog post explaining the company's choice of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s|"FireRed" and "LeafGreen"}} as both Japanese and international titles for the remakes of {{2v2|Red|Green}}.<ref>[https://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir/?p=109 増田部長のめざめるパワー]</ref><ref>[https://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir_english/?p=25 HIDDEN POWER of masuda]</ref>

==Connectivity==

The '''Pokémon Trainer''' (Japanese: '''ポケモントレーナー''' ''Pokémon Trainer'') is a playable character in the ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' series. He is playable in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', and is a trophy in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]''. Although he only appears in ''Brawl'', his Pokémon [[Charizard (Super Smash Bros.)|Charizard]] is playable in subsequent installments.

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

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

When sent out, each Pokémon is initially granted 100 points of energy called ''stamina''. 0.5 points of stamina is deducted for every second a Pokémon is in battle, thus allowing for a maximum of approximately 3 minutes and 20 second of normal performance. Executing an attack also drains 0.5 stamina points. When a Pokémon's stamina reaches 40, their stance will change to signal oncoming fatigue. Once stamina reaches 0, the Pokémon's attacks drop in effectiveness to 0.7x damage. When any Pokémon is knocked out, the stamina of all three is increased by 30%.

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

While switching out, the user is temporarily immune to any on-screen attacks. This makes it an effective method for avoiding certain Final Smashes if timed correctly. Damage percentage is shared by all 3 Pokémon, so changing Pokémon will not affect damage at all. Effects such as increased or decreased size held by the previous Pokémon will ''not'' be carried over during Pokémon Change ([[Final Smash]] wielding being one exception). Pokémon Change cannot be activated in midair.

Due to the Pokémon Trainer starting with only Squirtle, Pokémon Change is disabled in [[The Subspace Emissary]] until the player obtains Ivysaur; it is then limited until Charizard is obtained.

{{TrainerPoké
|trainer=Pokémon Trainer
|pkmn=Squirtle
|type1=Water
|img=Squirtle SSBB.png
|epnum=Super Smash Bros. Brawl
|epname=Super Smash Bros. Brawl
|vajp=Rikako Aikawa
|vaen=Michele Knotz
|desc={{main|sbw:Squirtle (SSBB)|Squirtle on SmashWiki}}
Squirtle is a fast, lightweight fighter and uses various attacks using its shell and jets of water. It can use {{m|Waterfall}} to dash upward on a wave of water to recover from falls, {{m|Withdraw}} to retreat into its shell and propel itself forward while shooting water out; which makes up for its below-average dash speed. It also uses {{m|Water Gun}} to push enemies backward with a chargeable stream of water, but does no damage at all (unless fired without charging it up, though it also shortens the range). Because of its lightweight build, it excels in aerial combat and is hard to combo, but is easy to knock around and KO. Squirtle is also the shortest-ranged of the 3 Pokémon and needs to be in close range to deal damage, due to its small size and poor reach. It uses {{m|Hydro Pump}} in the Pokémon Trainer's Final Smash, {{DL|Final Smash|Triple Finish}}.

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

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

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

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

In the {{sbw|Adventure Mode: The Subspace Emissary|Subspace Emissary}}, Charizard is found shortly after Ivysaur. After being defeated in battle, it is turned into a trophy and captured, completing the Trainer's team.

}}

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

==[[wp:Metal Gear|Codec]] information (on {{sbw|Shadow Moses Island}})==

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

==Trophy information==
[[File:Triple Finish.png|250px|thumb|right|Pokémon Trainer's Final Smash]]
===Brawl===
====Pokémon Trainer====
''"A person who {{tc|Pokémon Breeder|raises Pokémon}} and [[Pokémon training|trains]] them as [[Party|partners]] in battle. In battle, a Trainer gives [[Move|orders]] to the Pokémon and uses [[item]]s. It's not an exaggeration to say {{pkmn|battle}}s can be won or lost on a Trainer's single [[Damage modification|strategic move]]. Trainers pour their [[Friendship|hearts]] into their Pokémon and share anger, sadness, and joy as they adventure in hopes of becoming [[Pokémon Master]]s."''

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

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

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

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

==Trivia==
* The Pokémon Trainer is a [[Cross-canon counterpart]] of {{ga|Red}}, specifically based on his appearance in {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}.
* If Ivysaur is grabbed, the opposing character grabs its bulb rather than its whole body, even when grabbing in front of it.
* Squirtle is tied with {{sbw|Olimar (SSBB)|Olimar}} as the smallest playable character in the game.
* When the heroes reach the final boss of the Subspace Emissary, Tabuu, he unleashes his Off Waves, instantly turning them all into trophies. Because he does not fight opponents directly, this is the only time in the entire game when the Trainer himself is turned into a trophy.
* There are unused animations of the Pokémon Trainer jumping and landing within the game code.

GAME FREAK's (Trainer class)

'''GAME FREAK''' (Japanese: '''ゲームフリーク''' ''Game Freak'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] that debuted in the [[Generation V]] games.

==In the games==
[[Game Freak]] employees appear in each of the main series games, with their headquarters on the third floor of the [[Celadon Condominiums]]. In the games in which [[Kanto]] is not visitable, they appear on vacation, with a group in [[Lilycove City]], staying in the [[Cove Lily Motel]], and a single member staying at the [[Hotel Grand Lake]] in [[Valor Lakefront]]. The main reason to visit them is to obtain a [[diploma]], awarded after the completion of the [[Pokédex]]. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the sound designer gives the [[GB Sounds]] after the player has obtained all 8 Kanto Badges.

Game Freak has its own building in [[Castelia City]] in {{game|Black and White|s}}, where a character representing [[Shigeki Morimoto]] can be battled after stopping [[Team Plasma]]. Game Freak is found on 22F, just like in their real-world office in {{wp|Carrot Tower}}. In {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, aside from Morimoto, another employee which is based on [[Kōji Nishino]] can also be fought. Nishino uses a {{p|Snorlax}} as his highest leveled Pokémon, a reference to his nickname カビゴン ''Kabigon'', after which Snorlax is named. In the English versions, he calls himself Snorlax.

==Blurb==

The time for Ash’s Gym Battle with Burgh, the Castelia City Gym Leader and Bug-type Pokémon expert, has finally arrived! Burgh’s first Pokémon is Dwebble, and Ash sends out his Tepig. From the outset, Burgh’s Dwebble shows impressive speed thanks to an extra-light rock on its back, and its powerful Rock Wrecker attack quickly knocks Tepig out!

Next, Ash brings out his Sewaddle. Burgh is pleased to see his old friend from Pinwheel Forest—until Sewaddle makes quick work of Dwebble by knocking the rock off of its back with a well-placed Razor Leaf, evening the score!

When Burgh brings out his tough Whirlipede, Ash decides to stick with Sewaddle—who evolves into Swadloon in the midst of the battle! Swadloon’s powerful Energy Ball defeats Whirlipede, leaving Burgh with only his beloved Leavanny. The Nurturing Pokémon quickly overpowers Swadloon, leaving Leavanny to battle against Ash’s Pikachu!

Pikachu soon finds itself trapped by Leavanny’s String Shot. With its tail all wrapped up, Pikachu is way off balance and having trouble aiming! After several attempts to shake off the sticky string fail, Ash sends Pikachu diving straight into Leavanny’s Leaf Storm. It’s a risky move, but the sharp leaves cut right through the strings, and Pikachu is free! Back up to speed, Pikachu defeats Leavanny with a powerful Electro Ball, and Ash excitedly claims the Insect Badge!

Meanwhile, the Team Rocket trio have been getting the silent treatment from their boss, Giovanni. His secretary advises them to act on their own and do their best for Team Rocket. Jessie, James, and Meowth decide to go back to doing what they do best—annoying Ash while trying to steal Pikachu! And when James befriends a hungry Yamask that wanders into their cave, Jessie proclaims this an excellent omen for their future...

==Plot==
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} arrives at the [[Castelia City]] [[Castelia Gym|Gym]] so he can battle [[Burgh]], the Castelia City [[Gym Leader]]. When they get inside, they are amazed at how it is similar to a {{wp|greenhouse}}. They find Burgh feeding a {{p|Sewaddle}} as he mentions how the trees were transferred from [[Pinwheel Forest]] to provide a natural environment for his {{t|Bug}} types. Burgh opens up the battlefield, coming up from the under ground. The referee announces that the battle will be three-on-three.

Burgh summons {{p|Dwebble}} as his first, while Ash goes with {{AP|Tepig}}. {{an|Iris}} and {{an|Cilan}} agree that Tepig is a solid choice. Just then, Iris realizes that Burgh's Dwebble looks different from [[Cilan's Dwebble]]. Tepig attacks first with {{m|Tackle}}, but Dwebble dodges it. Tepig tries again, but Dwebble uses {{m|Dig}} to avoid it and strike Tepig. When Dwebble follows up with a fast {{m|X-Scissor}}, Burgh reveals that Dwebble's rock shell is actually lighter than average, giving Dwebble more {{stat|speed}}. Dwebble uses {{m|Protect}} to nullify Tepig's {{m|Ember}} before launching X-Scissor, which Tepig responds with Tackle. Ash decides to order a {{m|Flame Charge}} all-in, but another Protect stops it. With Tepig close, Dwebble uses {{m|Rock Wrecker}} to [[Fainting#In the anime|take out]] Tepig, part of Burgh's strategy.

Wanting to initiate a "Bug battle", Ash presumptuously sends out Sewaddle. Sewaddle fires {{m|Razor Leaf}}, but Protect once against stalls it. Dwebble charges with X-Scissor, but Sewaddle fires {{m|String Shot}} at the ceiling to dodge. Protect stops Sewaddle's {{m|Bug Bite}} counterattack before firing Rock Wrecker. Sewaddle once again uses String Shot to dodge and retaliate with Razor Leaf, but Protect once again stops it. When Dwebble fires another Rock Wrecker, Sewaddle uses String Shot to wrap and stop it. Sewaddle's Tackle hits before Dwebble can use X-Scissor, which separates Dwebble from its shell. Sewaddle keeps Dwebble from its shell with rapid Razor Leaf/Tackle pressure, knocking it out.

For his second, Burgh sends out {{p|Whirlipede}}. {{an|Iris}} and {{an|Cilan}} note that {{AP|Tranquill}} and Tepig would be effective here, but Tepig is down and Tranquill isn't in Ash's [[party]]. Ash keeps Sewaddle in, having it dodge a {{m|Poison Sting}} attack with String Shot. Sewaddle fires String Shot on Whirlipede, but Whirlipede simply spins in place to break it. A {{m|Steamroller}} attack hits Sewaddle hard, and a follow-up attack couldn't be stopped by Sewaddle's {{m|Razor Leaf}}. Sewaddle tries to retaliate with Bug Bite, but Whirlipede's {{m|Iron Defense}} easily repulses it. Whirlipede lands another Steamroller before trying a knockout shot {{m|SolarBeam}}. Sewaddle surprisingly takes it and glows with light, [[Evolution|evolving]] into {{AP|Swadloon}}. Swadloon fires String Shot onto Whirlipede, but it once again shreds it. Swadloon tries to dodge a Steamroller with String Shot, but Whirlipede runs into the string, cutting it. Whirlipede prepares to attack again, but an {{m|Energy Ball}} attack stops that. One Tackle attack is enough to take Whirlipede out of the match.

Meanwhile, at the harbor, [[Team Rocket]] tries to get a hold of {{an|Giovanni}}, but they are unable to uncover their next assignment. [[Matori]] leaves them to decide their own mission, so they decide to once again pursue [[Ash's Pikachu]], with new drive and a new {{motto}}, bringing back their classic uniforms. A {{p|Yamask}} appears and checks out their computer. [[Jessie]] wants to catch it, sending out {{TP|Jessie|Woobat}}. [[James]] stops them and decides to feed it. It eats happily and afterwards, James asks it to join him, holding a [[Poké Ball]]. It goes in, allowing James to capture the {{TP|James|Yamask}}.

Back at the Gym, Burgh sends out his final Pokémon {{p|Leavanny}}, the guardian of the Gym. Swadloon fires Energy Ball, but Leavanny uses Protect to stop it before using String Shot to cover Swadloon. Ash has Swadloon fires Razor Leaf on itself, breaking the strings but inflicting residual damage on itself. Swadloon is unable to dodge a powerful {{m|Leaf Storm}} and a follow-up {{m|Hyper Beam}}, finally taking it out of the match. Ash recalls it and contemplates his final Pokémon. {{AP|Oshawott}} comes out and volunteers, but Pikachu steps forward, which Ash picks, crushing Oshawott.

Pikachu fires {{m|Thunderbolt}}, but Leavanny simply ducks to avoid it. Leavanny uses Protect to stop Pikachu's {{m|Iron Tail}} before retaliating with Leaf Storm, but Thunderbolt cancels it. Leavanny uses String Shot to wrap and impair Pikachu. When Pikachu tries to dodge another Leaf Storm with {{m|Quick Attack}}, it is unable to move quickly and gets hit, since the strings have frozen Pikachu's tail and prevent it from balancing. Pikachu tries to break it by biting it, but the strings are resilient. Pikachu gets knocked around by another Leaf Storm, and the strings impair Pikachu's Thunderbolt {{stat|accuracy}} as well. A Hyper Beam attack once again knocks Pikachu about the stadium. When Burgh orders another Leaf Storm, Ash decides to have Pikachu dive into it while spinning. The attack weakens the strings enough for Pikachu to shake off. Burgh tries to slow Pikachu again with more String Shot, but with Pikachu's balance in order, it easily uses Quick Attack to dodge and even a Thunderbolt to cancel one. Pikachu lands powerful hits with Iron Tail and {{m|Electro Ball}}, taking down Leavanny and winning the match for Ash. Burgh presents him the {{Badge|Insect}} which Ash displays with pride before putting it into his Badge case. With the victory, Ash and his friends leave the Gym and continue their advanture.

==Trivia==
[[File:BW023 Team Rocket motto black uniforms.png|thumb|right|250px|The original version of the motto, featuring the black uniforms]]
* [[Professor Oak's Pokémon Live Caster]]: {{p|Herdier}}
* This episode was originally supposed to air on March 31, 2011 in Japan but was moved up two weeks earlier because of the original {{OBP|BW023|unaired}} and {{OBP|BW024|unaired}}'s postponement, which would then be later retconned out of canon. The dub also followed this skip.
* Due to the reordering of the previous and following episodes, there was no next episode preview after the closing credits.
* The first edition of the rental DVD with this episode is the only time its preview can be seen, attached to the end of the [[BW022|previous episode.]] Strangely, subsequent printings of the DVD removed this preview and restored the one for the [[BW023 (unaired)|skipped episode]].
* This episode marks the first time that one of [[Ash's Swadloon|Ash's Pokémon]] has evolved during a Gym battle.
* [[Jessie]] and [[James]] go back to wearing their white uniforms and back to their mission of trying to capture Pikachu and other Pokémon. However, they still maintain their new gadgets and competence from previous episodes.
* This episode ends James's streak of having no Pokémon with him - after 23 episodes.
* Due to the delaying of the two previous episodes, this is the first episode to feature a new animation for the [[move]] {{m|Hyper Beam}}.
* In India on [[Pokémon in South Asia|Pogo]] instead of 2 commercial breaks, from this episode only one commercial break appears.
* This episode is [[Matori]]'s final speaking role until ''[[XY107|An Explosive Operation!]]'' despite her appearing in several other episodes during that time.
** This episode is also the only time Matori ever appears in an episode but Giovanni does not.
* The [[Team Rocket motto]] that debuts in this episode was first seen in a preview prior to the debut of the {{series|Best Wishes}}. However, in the preview, Team Rocket were still wearing their black uniforms as opposed to the white uniforms that returned in this episode. Whether this episode was meant to originally feature the black uniforms or not is unknown.

===Errors===

===Dub edits===
* During Team Rocket's video conference with Matori, the line in which Meowth speaks her name is edited to remove it, as she is not given a proper name in the English dub.

'''Kinesis''' (Japanese: '''スプーンまげ''' ''Spoon Bend'') is a non-damaging {{type|Psychic}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. It is the [[signature move]] of {{p|Kadabra}} and {{p|Alakazam}}.

==Effect==
===Generations I to III===
Kinesis decreases the target's {{stat|accuracy}} stat by one stage.

===Generation IV onward===
Kinesis can now be reflected with {{m|Magic Coat}}.

==Trivia==
* This move is a reference to the psychokinetic spoon bending tricks popularized by stage psychic {{wp|Uri Geller}}.
** Due to the [[Pokémon controversy#Uri Geller|legal issues between Nintendo and Geller]], this may explain why Kinesis is one of four moves introduced in Generation I that has not been featured in the main series {{pkmn|anime}}. (The others are {{m|Barrage}}, {{m|Leech Life}}, and {{m|Struggle}}; however, Barrage was featured in [[Pokémon Origins]].)
* In {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, no Pokémon could learn Kinesis; it only appeared as a random result of {{m|Metronome}}. From {{game|Yellow}} onward, Kadabra has it as a starting move, such that wild Kadabra know Kinesis in Pokémon Yellow and the Generation II games. Kadabra and Alakazam can also be taught Kinesis using the [[Move Reminder]] in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]].

Bug (type)

PokeWizardCali: /* Trivia */

{{types}}
The '''Bug type''' (Japanese: '''むしタイプ''' ''Bug type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in Bug-type Pokémon are [[Bugsy]] of [[Azalea Town]], {{EF|Aaron}} of the [[Sinnoh]] [[Elite Four]], [[Burgh]] of [[Castelia City]], and [[Viola]] of [[Santalune City]]. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Bug-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]] depending on the attack.

==Characteristics==
===Defense===
Defensively, Bug types often struggle because of their typically low {{stat|Defense}} and weaknesses to {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Flying}}, and {{t|Rock}}, all of which are commonly employed offensively. Even their resistances to {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Fighting}}, the two types with the most offensive coverage, are of little use since many Pokémon of both types can learn Rock moves.

However, dual-type Bug/Flying and Bug/{{t|Poison}} Pokémon have an outstanding double resistance to Fighting, which can make up for their low Defense. They also have a double resistance to common {{t|Grass}} moves and can greatly pressure Pokémon of that type. The Bug type is perhaps most effective when paired with {{t|Steel}}, as those two types cover each other against everything but Fire.

===Offense===
In strictly damage-dealing terms, Bug is one of the worst offensive types. Statistically, the Bug type is the weakest among the types as it has the lowest average base stat total among all Pokémon and among fully evolved Pokémon. Furthermore, many fully-evolved Bug-type Pokémon have a base stat total below 400. Although they are {{DL|Damage modification|super effective}} against {{t|Psychic}}, {{t|Dark}}, and {{t|Grass}} types, Bug types are unable to deal a lot of damage to many other types, as seven types ({{t|Fire}}, {{t|Flying}}, {{t|Fighting}}, {{t|Poison}}, {{t|Ghost}}, {{t|Steel}}, and {{t|Fairy}}) resist Bug-type moves. Many Grass types such as Venusaur have a dual type that eliminates their weakness to Bug, and most pure Grass types have well above average defensive stats, making low-powered Bug type moves almost useless against them.

In [[Generation I]], Bug type can also deal super-effective damage to Poison, though this is reversed as of [[Generation II]]. The Bug type does pair effectively with {{t|Water}} and {{t|Ice}}, but their advantage over Psychic types is compromised by the relatively common typing of Bug/Poison types in Generation I, as well as Psychic types with Bug-resistant secondary types.

However, although lacking in stats, Bug-types are by no means ineffectual. Bug-types learn many powerful status moves such as {{m|Tail Glow}} and {{m|Quiver Dance}}, as well as frequently having access to moves of other types like Sleep Powder. Although their base power may be lacking, almost every offensive Bug-type move has an additional effect that hinders the opponent or helps the user.

===Contest properties===
In {{pkmn|Contest}}s, Bug-type moves do not favor any one [[Contest condition|Contest category]].

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 66 Bug-type Pokémon or 9.2% of all Pokémon, making it the 6th most common type.

==Trivia==
* [[Generation V]] introduced the most Bug-type Pokémon of any Generation, with 18, and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest Bug-type Pokémon, with three.
* [[Generation IV]] introduced the most Bug-type moves of any Generation, with seven, and Generations II and III introduced the fewest Bug-type moves, with three.
* The {{t|Flying}} type is one of the two types most commonly paired with the Bug type, with the other type being {{t|Poison}}. However, there are a number of Bug types, despite being able to fly, that are not Flying types, nor have the Ability {{a|Levitate}}, such as {{p|Beedrill}} and {{p|Venomoth}}.
** Despite this, the only Bug-type Pokémon that can learn the move {{m|Fly}}, {{p|Volcarona}} and {{p|Genesect}}, are not Flying types.
* Until {{game|Platinum}}, several Bug-type Pokémon ({{p|Shuckle}}, {{p|Kricketot}}, {{p|Burmy}}, {{p|Wormadam}}, and {{p|Combee}}) were unable to learn any Bug-type moves naturally. Each of them is now able to learn {{m|Bug Bite}} by level up.
* In [[Generation I]], the Bug type is super effective against {{type|Poison}} Pokémon, while the Poison type is {{DL|Damage modification|super effective}} against Bug-type Pokémon. As such, this was the only case when two different types were super-effective against each other.
* The Bug type was the most common 4× weakness in Generation I, with 11 Pokémon doubly weak to it, mainly due to Poison type having a weakness to it at the time.
* No Pokémon gains the Bug type upon evolving that did not already have it. It shares this distinction with the {{t|Normal}} type.
* All Pokemon that evolve at level 7, the earliest level Pokemon can involve solely through leveling up, are of the Bug type.

Bug (type)

PokeWizardCali: /* Characteristics */ improving the section

{{types}}
The '''Bug type''' (Japanese: '''むしタイプ''' ''Bug type'') is one of the eighteen [[type]]s. Notable Trainers who specialize in Bug-type Pokémon are [[Bugsy]] of [[Azalea Town]], {{EF|Aaron}} of the [[Sinnoh]] [[Elite Four]], [[Burgh]] of [[Castelia City]], and [[Viola]] of [[Santalune City]]. Prior to [[Generation IV#Advances in gameplay|changes in Generation IV]], all damaging Bug-type moves were [[physical move|physical]], but they may now also be [[special move|special]] depending on the attack.

==Characteristics==
===Defense===
Defensively, Bug types often struggle because of their typically low {{stat|Defense}} and weaknesses to {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Flying}}, and {{t|Rock}}, all of which are commonly employed offensively. Even their resistances to {{t|Ground}} and {{t|Fighting}}, the two types with the most offensive coverage, are of little use since many Pokémon of both types can learn Rock moves.

However, dual-type Bug/Flying and Bug/{{t|Poison}} Pokémon have an outstanding double resistance to Fighting, which can make up for their low Defense. They also have a double resistance to common {{t|Grass}} moves and can greatly pressure Pokémon of that type. The Bug type is perhaps most effective when paired with {{t|Steel}}, as those two types cover each other against everything but Fire.

===Offense===
In strictly damage-dealing terms, Bug is one of the worst offensive types. Statistically, the Bug type is the weakest among the types as it has the lowest average base stat total among all Pokémon and among fully evolved Pokémon. Furthermore, many fully-evolved Bug-type Pokémon have a base stat total below 400. Although they are {{DL|Damage modification|super effective}} against {{t|Psychic}}, {{t|Dark}}, and {{t|Grass}} types, Bug types are unable to deal a lot of damage to many other types, as seven types ({{t|Fire}}, {{t|Flying}}, {{t|Fighting}}, {{t|Poison}}, {{t|Ghost}}, {{t|Steel}}, and {{t|Fairy}}) resist Bug-type moves. Many Grass types such as Venusaur have a dual type that eliminates their weakness to Bug, and most pure Grass types have well above average defensive stats, making low-powered Bug type moves almost useless against them.

In [[Generation I]], Bug type can also deal super-effective damage to Poison, though this is reversed as of [[Generation II]]. The Bug type does pair effectively with {{t|Water}} and {{t|Ice}}, but their advantage over Psychic types is compromised by the relatively common typing of Bug/Poison types in Generation I, as well as Psychic types with Bug-resistant secondary types.

However, although lacking in stats, Bug-types are by no means ineffectual. Bug-types learn many powerful status moves such as {{m|Tail Glow}} and {{m|Quiver Dance}}, as well as frequently having access to moves of other types like Sleep Powder. Although their base power may be lacking, almost every offensive Bug-type move has an additional effect that hinders the opponent or helps the user.

===Contest properties===
In {{pkmn|Contest}}s, Bug-type moves do not favor any one [[Contest condition|Contest category]].

==Pokémon==
As of Generation VI, there are 66 Bug-type Pokémon or 9.2% of all Pokémon, making it the 6th most common type.

==Trivia==
* [[Generation V]] introduced the most Bug-type Pokémon of any Generation, with 18, and [[Generation VI]] introduced the fewest Bug-type Pokémon, with three.
* [[Generation IV]] introduced the most Bug-type moves of any Generation, with seven, and Generations II and III introduced the fewest Bug-type moves, with three.
* The {{t|Flying}} type is one of the two types most commonly paired with the Bug type, with the other type being {{t|Poison}}. However, there are a number of Bug types, despite being able to fly, that are not Flying types, nor have the Ability {{a|Levitate}}, such as {{p|Beedrill}} and {{p|Venomoth}}.
** Despite this, the only Bug-type Pokémon that can learn the move {{m|Fly}}, {{p|Volcarona}} and {{p|Genesect}}, are not Flying types.
* Until {{game|Platinum}}, several Bug-type Pokémon ({{p|Shuckle}}, {{p|Kricketot}}, {{p|Burmy}}, {{p|Wormadam}}, and {{p|Combee}}) were unable to learn any Bug-type moves naturally. Each of them is now able to learn {{m|Bug Bite}} by level up.
* In [[Generation I]], the Bug type is super effective against {{type|Poison}} Pokémon, while the Poison type is {{DL|Damage modification|super effective}} against Bug-type Pokémon. As such, this was the only case when two different types were super-effective against each other.
* The Bug type was the most common 4× weakness in Generation I, with 11 Pokémon doubly weak to it, mainly due to Poison type having a weakness to it at the time.
* No Pokémon gains the Bug type upon evolving that did not already have it. It shares this distinction with the {{t|Normal}} type.

Me and Andrea did some comparing. His Fire Red 1.0 didn't have it, and mine did. The original Auroraticket message is at 0x17FC5F, but is repointed, copied and expanded at 0x71A23D, which is the start of a large block of free space, leaving the original unused. This is why Hfc2x couldn't find anything ''but'' empty space. The "Buy it or Die" ROMs are technically just quick and easy hacks. Still, it's fairly innocious and the guy ''does'' say having an Auroraticket is rare. I think the word "some" would be appropriate. --[[User:Kyoufu Kawa|Kyoufu Kawa]] 17:25, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

I bought a LG at Game, yet, it's glitched:
* Pokémon names are only five characters (Blastoise → BLAST)
* You can only have a 5 letter long name. (George → GEORG}
* Pokémon nicknames can only be 5 letters in length.
* Your rival swears, about you and your Pokémon.
* The text doesn't make sense.
* The Gym Leaders had their Japanese names.
* Pokémon obtained through trade would have Japanese characters.
* The game would sometimes delete the save file.

I couldn't find any mention about this in the article, and I don't think it's a glitch... but in all previous pokemon games (as well as all future games I've played) you get the option to switch your pokemon after you cause your opponent's pokemon to faint, correct? so why don't they allow this in firered/leafgreen?--[[User:BloPant|BloPant]] 04:13, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

== STAB? ==

should it be mentioned that these are the only pokemon games where it's possible to deal super effective damage but not possible to deal damage with STAB? what with the addition of dark-type moves but no dark-type pokemon. steel possibly also fits, not sure about magnemite's learnset. {{unsigned|Slimmy}}
:Murkrow and Sneasel can be caught in the Sevii Islands. There is also Tyranitar, which can be evolved from Larvitar, and the Pokémon which can be traded from Hoenn. So it is possible to deal STAB with the Dark-type. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 07:01, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

== Cross-Generation before National Pokedex? ==

In the Trvia it says that Gen2 Pokemon are not prevented from evolving into Gen1 Pokemon (before National Pokedex is obtained. Once you have this, there are no limits).

However, I've found it impossible to get a Gen2 Pokemon onto the game before obtaining the National Pokedex. I wanted to put the surfing Pichu (from Pokemon Box) onto a japanese LeafGreen but the game simply rejected eggs and the Pichu. Once the Pichu was evolved to Pikachu, it could be traded. Of course, I used another Kanto-edition (as trading from Hoenn is not possible at all before Nationaldex).

So I'd like to know whether the Gen2-Pokemon was put there with cheating or whether I missed something. Either way, It could be added to the article.
--[[User:TCCPhreak|TCCPhreak]] 11:04, 13 November 2011 (UTC)

== Pokémon WaterBlue Version ==

<blockquote>QUOTE : ''A trademark was filed for "Pokémon WaterBlue Version", however, indicating that this renaming may have been considered.''</blockquote>
I think this needs some sourcing. Is there a webpage referencing the Pokémon trademarks Nintendo and The Pokémon Company filed ? [[User:InvocK|InvocK]] 13:15, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

== Translation ==

Are we sure that the official trademake for the japanese games is Firered and Leafgreen? Wouldn't it make sence if the name was FireRed and LeafGreen, thats what I think the official translation is, and fits with the name HeartGold and SoulSilver. [[User:Iml908|Iml908]] ([[User talk:Iml908|talk]]) 21:46, 27 October 2012 (UTC)

I have this game on my emulator but it always says something like "The 1m curcitboard is not installed" on fire red and on leaf green it will not let me save it says save error please extange the backup memory and I have to always do a save state what is^ and why does it say that. [[User:kingsisle|kingsisle]]
:I am assuming that this means that it cannot find the battery containing the memory, included in each cartridge. Also, you may not be aware but these comments should go on the forum (if discussing illegal copies of games is allowed).

I don't know where my dad got the rom from but romulation is not a illegal downloading site it has Roms that were donated to the site and they remove games that the developer does not want to be up for download.[[user:kingsisle|kingsisle]]

== V1.0 compared to v1.1 ==

Due to the article mentioning the pokedex typographical errors, I was able to learn I have v1.0 of both FireRed and LeafGreen. What I found interesting about playing through the games though, is that numerous hidden items listed on the various Bulbapedia pages (such as Mt. Moon and Bond Bridge) do not exist. I am first off curious if anyone else has noticed this version difference, and if such a thing is worth adding a section and/or updating the various route pages as to which items are version exclusive. {{unsigned|Hobbs678}}

== The title of the page should stay the same. ==

It has been suggested that the title of this article be renamed "Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen." I'm okay with the suggestion, but even though other territories don't use the word "version," North America does, so we should refer to them by their full North American names. Thank you.

What exactly is wrong with the Changes section? [[User:Easyaspi314|Easyaspi314]] ([[User talk:Easyaspi314|talk]]) 05:20, 22 October 2016 (UTC)
:To quote SatoMew, specifically the following revision ({{special:diff/2330238}}), "Instead of lists of changes and new things, rewrite it as prose and avoid unnecessary details. Get rid of trivia as far as possible, relocating the info where appropriate (most trivia is not notable)." Either way, comparing it to other articles, it seems like it is ok in my book. (Especially compared to the size of ORAS's section...) If there is an issue, it would be the lack of a "Mechanics inherited from later generations" section. --[[User:Super goku|Super goku]] ([[User talk:Super goku|talk]]) 06:44, 22 October 2016 (UTC)

A lot of Pokemon fans specifically look for the changes and trivia section and consider them interesting pieces of information. However we have to make sure that the trivia doesn't fit anywhere else otherwise it looks disorganized and it could be essentially repeating the same information twice.

List of Pokémon with unique type combinations

2016-10-21T22:37:51Z

PokeWizardCali: /* Intro */

This is a '''list of Pokémon with unique type combinations''' across the [[generation]]s. A Pokémon qualifies as having a unique [[type]] combination if no other Pokémon aside from any evolutionary relatives has that type combination. Since the game makes no distinction between a Pokémon's first and second types when calculating damage, this list does not consider every permutation of types, but instead considers only combinations. In other words, Pokémon such as {{p|Spiritomb}} (a {{2t|Ghost|Dark}}-type Pokémon) and {{p|Sableye}} (a {{2t|Dark|Ghost}}-type Pokémon) are treated as having the same type combination.

==Trivia==
* Nearly 50% of all (130) used type combinations are unique to a single Pokémon (26 combinations) or evolutionary family (34 combinations).
* {{p|Tornadus}} is the only single-type Pokémon that does not share its type with any other (excluding [[Sky Plate]] {{p|Arceus}}).
** Several other single-type Pokémon—{{p|Dratini}}, {{p|Dragonair}}, {{p|Misdreavus}}, {{p|Sudowoodo}}, {{p|Tangela}}, and {{p|Umbreon}}—were unique in their single typing when introduced, but later generations introduced more Pokémon with those types.
* [[Generation V]] introduced the most Pokémon with unique type combinations, with 33.

* [[Generation IV]] introduced the fewest Pokémon with unique type combinations, with 20.
* While not evolutionary relatives, {{p|Lunatone}} and {{p|Solrock}} are the only {{2t|Rock|Psychic}}-type Pokémon, the [[eon duo]] ({{p|Latios}} and {{p|Latias}}) are the only {{2t|Dragon|Psychic}}-type Pokémon, and {{p|Carbink}} and {{p|Diancie}} are the only {{2t|Rock|Fairy}}-type Pokémon.

'''Bruno''' (Japanese: '''シバ''' ''Siba'') is a {{pkmn|Master}} {{type|Fighting}} {{pkmn|Trainer}} and member of the [[Elite Four]] of [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]].

==In the games==
Bruno is a member of the [[Elite Four]]. He raises Fighting-type Pokémon, living with them and training with them. He joined the Elite Four out of a desire to challenge the best Trainers. Although he trains Fighting Pokémon, he also uses Onix and its evolution. His strongest Pokémon is always his Machamp.

Bruno regularly visits the [[Sevii Islands]]. He and his Pokémon use the spa on [[One Island]], and he visits [[Two Island]] to buy [[Rage Candy Bar|RageCandyBars]].

[[Brawly]] is a former training partner of Bruno's.

In {{game5|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Bruno continues to be a member of the Elite Four, having moved up in position one level.

===In the main series===
[[File:Bruno anime.png|left|thumb|220px|Bruno in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Bruno's only appearance has been in ''[[EP071|To Master the Onixpected!]]''. While {{Ash}} was preparing for the [[Pokémon League]] in Kanto, he found out that Bruno was training in the mountains near [[Pallet Town]]. {{an|Brock}} was enthusiastic about meeting Bruno, so they took {{an|Misty}} and headed towards the mountains. In the local mountains, it was known that {{p|Onix}} grew much larger than usual.

After Bruno saved them from one of the giant Onix, Ash and Brock begged for Bruno to take them on as students. Bruno agreed, as long as Ash and Brock would do anything he said. Bruno had them chop wood, carry water, and carve chopsticks—among other chores. Misty began to suspect that Bruno was a phony.

Brock decided to prove how amazing Bruno was by surprising him with a sneak attack. He assumed that Bruno's reflexes would be so amazing, he'd stop Brock with ease. Brock nearly ended up knocking Bruno unconscious. Bruno admitted that he didn't know any secret techniques on how to train Pokémon and just wanted to have someone to do chores for him.

Later, the kids were again chased by a giant Onix. The giant Pokémon was upset because a Sandslash was stuck between two of its boulders. Bruno removed Sandslash, calmed Onix, and it decided to join his team. Bruno then said that the only true secret behind Pokémon training is that Trainers and their Pokémon should care for each other.

Bruno has amazing physical power and agility in the anime, and appears capable of using them with almost superhuman expertise.

When Ash and the others asked what Pokémon he was going to use, Bruno shocked them by telling that he wasn't going to use any Pokémon. Bruno soon found the reason for Onix's agony: a {{p|Sandslash}} had been stuck inside of it. After Sandslash was removed, Onix became very thankful for Bruno and accepted to come with him, so Bruno threw his [[Poké Ball]] at Onix and captured it.}}

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Bruno Adventures.png|thumb|260px|Bruno and his Pokémon]]
Bruno was primarily a villain. He challenged {{adv|Red}} to a Pokémon battle in a remote area and fought him evenly, defeating [[Poli]] and injuring his [[Pika]]chu and [[Gyara]]dos. Afterwards, his comrades [[Agatha]] and [[Lorelei]] then offered a position on the Elite Four to Red for his battling prowess, but Red refused so Lorelei froze him using her expanding ice cuffs. Many of his Machop were seen in [[Pewter City]] keeping Brock at bay before stealing his Badge.
[[File:Johto Elite Four Adventures.png|thumb|left|200px|Bruno with the Johto Elite Four]]
Later, the Elite Four were at [[Cerise Island]] unleashing the final part of their plan: to destroy humanity. {{adv|Bill}} and [[Lt. Surge]] encountered Bruno near an acidic river, with his two Onix acting as bridges. The battle took place with Bruno standing on one Onix, and his opponents standing on the other. When {{adv|Yellow}} and [[Blaine]] came along it was also revealed that he put up a barrier to stop any intruders from entering so a fair battle could be fought. Bill and Lt. Surge eventually gained the upper hand by combining {{p|Exeggcute}}'s {{m|Egg Bomb}} with {{p|Electrode}}'s {{m|Explosion}} to make the Onix collapse and make them all fall except Lt. Surge had his {{p|Magneton}} create a {{m|Barrier}} to keep them elevated. It later was revealed that Bruno really used his Hitmonlee's legs to keep him hanging on, and Agatha's mind-controlling armbands then forced him to try and drag Lt. Surge down to the acid, only to be saved by a stranger with a [[Saur|Venusaur]] riding a bike. Red then came, revealed himself, and defeated Bruno using [[Vee]] with new found control of its [[evolution]]s.

It was later revealed that Bruno was an unwilling member, and only strived to be the best fighter there is. [[Agatha]] used the mind controlling abilities of her {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon to force Bruno to join. Due to this he was suffering memory loss and questions why he was in the Elite Four, so he couldn't even realize that he was being controlled.

Without any place to go, Bruno allied with three other ex-members of criminal organizations: [[Will]], [[Karen]], and [[Koga]]. Bruno apparently saved Koga when Cerise Island was about to collapse, and they both met Will and Karen in [[Ilex Forest]] at the end of the {{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}. The new Elite Four, as they would later be known as, were not seen in action until much later, in the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}.

Bruno attaches his [[Poké Ball]]s to the ends of a nunchuck. The force of him using the weapon causes his Pokémon to be released at high speeds, giving him the advantage in battles. He also has a unique Hitmonlee with arms as flexible as its legs, something previously thought to be impossible. It has also been mentioned, similarly to the Generation III main games, that Bruno used to train with [[Brawly]], now a Gym Leader in [[Hoenn]].

|desc={{p|Hitmonlee}} is Bruno's main Pokémon that specializes in kicking. He was known to have very strong legs as he was able to destroy Bill's house in one single kick and in other violent activities. He was used in a battle against Red on [[Mt. Moon]]. During their battle, Hitmonlee was able to land hefty damage on Red's [[Pika]], who was aiming for its knee but soon found that its elastic, spring-like legs made the feat virtually impossible. Soon afterwards, after [[Lorelei]] and [[Agatha]] joined the fray (and the latter activated the mind-controlling wristbands that she had Bruno wear), it was used alongside the former's {{p|Jynx}} and the latter's {{p|Gastly}} to defeat [[Poli]], [[Saur]], and [[Gyara]]. Hitmonlee was later used in the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}, where it fought with [[Koga]]'s Ekans against [[Lance's Dragonite]], but to no avail.

Hitmonlee's known moves are {{m|Hi Jump Kick}}, {{m|Rolling Kick}}, and {{m|Mega Kick}}.}}

Afterwards, it used its {{m|Bind}} to keep Gyarados from attacking, only to take damage from the latter's {{m|Bite}}. It then dug underground to launch a surprise attack, and this time faced off against [[Saur]]. However, before that fight could conclude, it was interrupted by a pack of {{p|Diglett}} crossing, and later Bruno's [[Elite Four]] comrades [[Lorelei]] and [[Agatha]]. A while later, it fought Bill and Lt. Surge on Cerise Island. He uses it this time to battle Red again. Onix was used to carry Red and the others off of Cerise Island as it was collapsing.}}

In the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}, he used Machamp in the [[Pokéathlon]], being able to break two sets of ten blocks really quickly without losing stamina in the Block Smash portion.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
[[File:Bruno PM.png|thumb|left|200px|Bruno in Pokémon Pocket Monsters]]
[[File:Bruno PM 2.png|thumb|200px|Bruno as a Johto Elite Four member]]
Bruno first appears in ''[[PM034|Clefairy's Under Training!!]]''. When {{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}}, {{TP|Red|Clefairy}} and {{TP|Red|Pikachu}} were out in a garden, they notice Bruno training with his {{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Hitmonchan}}. Bruno invites them over and the first thing he has them do was go under a waterfall. After the waterfall training, he has them break some bricks. Afterwards, Bruno has them meditate. During meditation, Clefairy, for some odd reason, decides to disrupt the training, much to everyone's ire. This is when Bruno reveals himself as one of the Elite Four. Clefairy then starts to mess up his hair which resulted in Clefairy getting booted out of the dojo.

Bruno called out his Machamp and two Onix to handle Clefairy after forcing Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan to fight each other. However, they almost managed to defeat Clefairy if Pikachu didn't help him out in escaping.

Bruno reappears in ''[[PM106|A Challenge to the Elite Four]]'' where it was revealed that he is part of the Johto Elite Four. He, along with [[Koga]] and [[Will]] fell from the [[Indigo Plateau|Elite Four Tower]], seemly defeated by [[Karen]]. Red ask them what happened, but Koga ask him to ask Karen herself. It is later revealed that after being exhausted from training, Karen decided to tell them a joke, and they fell down the building after hearing her dumb joke.

==Trivia==
* Bruno's hair has changed from [[Generation II]] to [[Generation III]] to a longer, darker style; his skin tone became lighter as well.
* In Generation III, Bruno's overworld sprite always looks away from the player after being defeated.
* Bruno's original sprite in [[Generation I]] and overworld sprites in [[Generation II]] and {{Gen|III}} show him with remarkably closed eyes (somewhat similar to [[Brock]]'s), similar to his Pokémon Adventures version, but starting in the next generation, he looks the same way he did in the anime.
* Bruno was the first member of the [[Elite Four]] who was met in the anime, excluding [[Koga]], who was not a member at the time of his appearance.
* None of Bruno's sprites have ever shown him standing up.
* Bruno, [[Lance]], [[Koga]] and [[Caitlin]] are the only Elite Four members who have appeared in more than one generation (excluding [[remake]]s).
* Bruno is the only member of the Kanto Elite Four to retain that title between Generations I and II.
** Bruno, Lance, and Koga are the only members of the Elite Four who have appeared in all the generations prior to [[Generation V]]. Of the three, Bruno is the only one to always keep his status as an Elite Four member.
* Despite taking place three years later, Bruno's Pokémon are at a lower level in Generation II than they were in Generation I. The same thing happens to [[Lance]] and {{ga|Blue}}.
* Bruno, [[Will]] and [[Koga]] are the only Elite Four members to have the same type specialty as a Gym Leader of their specific regions.
* Bruno has an [[Game move errors|illegal]] Exeggutor in Pokémon Stadium 2: {{m|Ancient Power}} is an Egg move, while {{m|Explosion}} is a [[Generation I]] TM.

Sometime during the three years between the Generation I games' plotline and the events of the [[Generation II]] games and their remakes, {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, Blue took the place of [[Giovanni]] as the [[Viridian City]] [[Gym Leader]], as Giovanni had mysteriously disappeared after he disbanded [[Team Rocket]]. Blue does not specialize in a particular type of Pokémon and, like Giovanni before him, he gives anyone who defeats him an {{Badge|Earth}}.

==In the games==
===Role===
He is a very cocky and somewhat unfriendly young man, typically bidding people farewell with "Smell ya later!" (Japanese: '''バイビー！''' ''Baibii!''), and his primary motivation throughout the game is to become the greatest Trainer. Aside from that main goal, he also seems to take satisfaction from always being one step ahead of the player character. He eventually accomplishes his goal, defeating the [[Kanto]] [[Elite Four]] and becoming the [[Pokémon Champion]], but is quickly defeated by the player, losing the position.

In {{game2|Red|Green|Blue}}, {{game|Yellow}}, and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, Blue is the player's rival: he will meet up with the player as he or she journeys across the [[Kanto]] region, challenging him or her every once in a while to test their skills. Like the player, he receives a starter Pokémon from Professor Oak, his grandfather: the one he chooses will be of the type which weakens the type of the player's choice. In Yellow, he will take the {{p|Eevee}} Prof Oak had intended for the player.

Eventually, Blue becomes the {{pkmn|Champion}} at [[Indigo Plateau]], though he is defeated by the player before Professor Oak arrives to congratulate him. Frustrated, he journeys to the [[Sevii Islands]] at Professor Oak's request, obtaining new Pokémon to use in his matches against the player at the Indigo Plateau (as all in-game Champions return to their position on the player's return to their hometown).

[[Professor Oak]], his grandfather, deems Blue to have not realized how to care for Pokémon, which he commends the player for, on becoming Champion. This is evident in the state Blue leaves [[Silph Co.]] in, which is still under Team Rocket control, leaving the player to take out Giovanni.

In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}} and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, however, it is revealed that, after he was defeated at the Indigo Plateau by {{ga|Red}} ({{ga|Leaf}} does not appear and is not mentioned in the remake games, and did not exist at the time of Generation II), Blue returned to [[Pallet Town]]. As [[Viridian Gym]]'s [[Gym Leader|Leader]], [[Giovanni]], had abandoned it on his defeat at the hands of Red, Blue took the position, now handing out the {{Badge|Earth}} to Trainers who bested him. In Generation IV, he also distributes {{TM|92|Trick Room}} to those who win the Earth Badge, but does not give a TM out in Generation II. He has not lost his nature as a traveling Trainer, however, and frequently leaves his Gym, creating problems for Trainers who wish to challenge him. When they do find him wherever he is, he points them in the direction of [[Viridian Gym]] for an official league battle. Blue will not battle the player until he or she has the other seven Kanto Badges in remakes. However, in originals he can be challenged as early as after the meeting on [[Cinnabar Island]].

In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} only, the player can face Blue in a rematch at the [[Fighting Dojo]]. The method of obtaining his number is slightly different from the other Gym Leaders. The player must have his or her Pokémon at maximum friendship and have it massaged by [[Daisy Oak]] seven times. After the seventh time, she will give the player Blue's phone number when spoken to. He can be called for a rematch on Sunday night.

In {{game|Black and White|s|Black 2 and White 2|2}}, the player can challenge Blue in the [[Pokémon World Tournament]]. He participates in the [[Champions Tournament]], with [[Giovanni]] filling in his space as a Kanto Gym Leader.

While he does not appear in {{pkmn|X and Y}}, Blue is mentioned by a woman in the Magenta Plaza Pokémon Center in [[Lumiose City]], who says that Blue traveled to the [[Kalos]] region to study abroad.

I mean, like Pokémon, there’s not just one type of person, either…But it’s still kind of strange when you think about it."''

==Counterparts==
===In the anime===
====In the main series====
[[File:Gary Oak DP.png|thumb|200px|Blue's anime counterpart, Gary Oak]]
{{main|Gary Oak}}
Blue himself does not make an appearance in the anime; however, he receives an [[cross-canon counterpart|anime counterpart]] in Gary Oak, [[Ash Ketchum]]'s rival. Much like Blue, Gary was initially very arrogant, but mellowed out after he was defeated by his rival. Unlike Blue, however, Gary has not been shown to have taken over Viridian Gym, instead he has decided to become a Pokémon researcher like his grandfather, and is currently working with [[Professor Rowan]] in [[Sinnoh]].

====In Pokémon Origins====
{{main|Blue (Origins)}}
Blue also had a direct counterpart that appeared in the [[Pokémon Origins]] mini-series. This counterpart shared Blue's name, in-game role, and design.

====In Pokémon Generations====
[[File:Blue PG.png|230px|thumb|Blue in Pokémon Generations]]
Blue first appeared in the [[Pokémon Generations]] episode ''[[PG03|The Challenger]]''. At beginning of the episode, he was being discussed by the [[Elite Four]] as a very strong Trainer as they prepared for his arrival at the [[Indigo Plateau]], having become the first to collect eight gym badges in a long time. He was subsequently shown defeating the Elite Four with relative ease, claiming the title of Champion. Shortly after this, he was seen welcoming {{ga|Red}} to come challenge him.

====In the Pokémon Zensho manga====
{{main|Shigeru (Zensho)}}
Blue has a counterpart in the [[Pokémon Zensho]] manga named {{Zensho|Shigeru}}, named after Blue's alternate name from the games and {{Gary}}'s Japanese name.

==Trivia==
* Blue's profile front sprites from {{game|Red and Green|s}}, like {{ga|Red}}'s, possibly correspond to his earlier [[Capsule Monsters]] artwork instead of his final [[Generation I]] artwork, suggesting that the sprites were created very early in the games' development or that [[Game Freak]] forgot to update their aesthetics to match the changes.
** Although part of the changes made in {{game|Yellow}} are directly inspired by the {{pkmn|anime}}, the updates to Blue's front sprites were done in order to match his then official artwork more accurately. Then, possibly, his updated initial profile front sprite was recycled for the [[Generation II]] games. Another possibility is that Pokémon Yellow actually uses that sprite from {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, as these games were originally scheduled for a March 1998 release according to the '''''Official Guidebook of Nintendo Spaceworld '97''''' (Japanese: '''NINTENDOスペースワールド'97オフィシャルガイドブック''') and the Nintendo Spaceworld 1997 website,<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/19980224225429/http://www.nintendo.co.jp/n12/swgbsoft/swgb03.html#gb19 SPACEWORLD'97 出展　GAME BOYソフト]</ref> while Pokémon Yellow came out in September 1998, just months after Game Freak decided to delay them. A similar situation occurs with {{ga|Red}}.
* Hidden data in the [[Generation I]] games reveals placeholder names for Blue and {{ga|Red}}:
** The unused default name for Blue in the English [[Generation I]] games is <sc>{{wp|Sony}}</sc> while Red's is <sc>[[Nintendo|Ninten]]</sc>. While it is impossible to view these names during regular gameplay, changing a few {{wp|memory address}}es in {{wp|Random-access memory|RAM}} can allow for these names to appear as shown [http://acmlm.kafuka.org/board/thread.php?pid=18912#18912 here]. This references the fact that in the years surrounding the releases of the Generation I games, Sony was Nintendo's main competition. Ninten is also the default name of the main protagonist of {{wb|Mother (video game)|Mother}}, a game developed by [[Creatures, Inc.]], which has worked on the [[Pokémon games]] since the start.
** In the Japanese [[Generation I]] games, the unused default names for Blue and Red differ between {{game|Red and Green|s}} and {{game|Blue| (Japanese)}} and then between the latter and {{game|Yellow}}<ref>[http://iimarck.us/i/default-names/ Default names]</ref>:
*** In Pokémon Red and Green, Blue's unused default name is いしはら ''Ishihara'' while Red's is やまぐち ''Yamaguchi''. Ishihara refers to [[Tsunekazu Ishihara]], the current president and {{wp|Chief executive officer|CEO}} of [[The Pokémon Company]] and who was the games' producer at the time, while Yamaguchi refers to Wataru Yamaguchi, an art director that worked on the original games.
*** In Pokémon Blue, the unused default names for Blue and Red are, respectively, クリチャ ''Kuricha'', a reference to [[Creatures, Inc.]] and ゲーフリ ''Gēfuri'', an abbreviation of [[Game Freak]]'s name in Japanese (ゲームフリーク ''Gēmu Furīku'').
*** In {{game|Yellow}}, Blue's unused default name remained unaltered while Red's was subtly altered by gaining an extra digit (ゲーフリ１).
* During the development stage of {{game|Red and Green|s}}, Blue was initially named ギャラ夫 ''Gyarao'', a reference to him being a Trainer of {{p|Gyarados}}.<ref>[https://twitter.com/SUPER_32X/status/524989875867504641 Ken Sugimori's Twitter]</ref>
* Along with {{ga|Red}}, [[Lance]], and the [[Generation I]] and {{Gen|III}} [[Kanto]] [[Gym Leader]]s (excluding [[Koga]] and [[Giovanni]]), Blue has appeared in [[generation]]s I-V of the [[Pokémon games]]. He is also the only [[rival]] with this feat.
* Blue is the only character that has been a [[Rival]], {{pkmn|Champion}}, and [[Gym Leader]].
* His English name Blue Oak is the name of a species of {{wp|Quercus douglasii|oak tree}}. He shares this distinction with his {{Gary|anime counterpart}}, {{wp|Quercus garryana|Gary Oak}}.
* Blue's {{p|Exeggutor}} in {{game|Red and Blue|s}} is the only Champion Pokémon in any game to know less than four [[move]]s.
* Blue's [[level]] 60 {{p|Pidgeot}} in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} is the highest level Pokémon used by a Gym Leader outside of [[rematch]]es.
* Blue is the only Gym Leader to share his name with his Gym's [[Badge]], as the Earth Badge is called the "Green Badge" in Japanese, matching Blue's Japanese name.
** Blue is also the only Gym Leader to use a full [[party]] of six Pokémon in a Gym battle.
* In the Round 2 battle of {{g|Stadium 2}}, each of Blue's Pokémon is the signature Pokémon of a Trainer battled at the end of a stage at the Johto [[Gym Leader Castle]]: {{p|Gengar}} is the signature Pokémon of [[Morty]], {{p|Scyther}} is the signature Pokémon of [[Bugsy]], {{p|Piloswine}} is the signature Pokémon of [[Pryce]], {{p|Houndoom}} is the signature Pokémon of [[Archer]], {{p|Kingdra}} is the signature Pokémon of [[Clair]], and {{p|Miltank}} is the signature Pokémon of [[Whitney]].
* In Yellow, half of Blue's Pokémon team were evolved by using [[evolutionary stone]]s. This may be a nod to his starter, {{p|Eevee}}.
* Blue is the only Champion not to accompany the player to the [[Hall of Fame]] after being defeated at the [[Pokémon League]]. Instead, the player is accompanied by [[Professor Oak]].

'''Ash's Muk''' (Japanese: '''サトシのベトベトン''' ''Satoshi's Betbeton'') was the ninth {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} caught by {{Ash}} during his travels through [[Kanto]].

==History==
===[[Original series]]===
====Kanto====
[[File:Muk Grimer EP030.png|thumb|left|200px|Muk in its debut]]
Ash caught Muk in the episode ''[[EP030|Sparks Fly for Magnemite]]''. Ash and {{ashfr}} were traveling through [[Gringey City]], which was in the midst of a power failure. The local power plant was being overrun by the mysterious {{type|Poison}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, {{p|Grimer}}. After the swarm was located, the Grimer's leader, a {{p|Muk}}, came and challenged the Trainers. However, the vast numbers of {{p|Magnemite}} and {{p|Magneton}} in the city combined attacks to clear out the Grimer, leaving only Muk. With the aid of {{AP|Pikachu}} and a {{p|Magnemite}} that was following it due to an electrical build up, Ash defeated and captured the Muk. It was then immediately sent to Oak's lab because its stench was so rancid that it could seep through the [[Poké Ball]]. However, Muk's horrid smell seemed to have disappeared in later episodes as neither Ash, nor anyone around him, was affected by it.

Muk appeared later in ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-ké Corral]]'' when Ash, {{an|Brock}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{Gary}} visited [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]].
[[File:Jeanette Fisher Bellsprout Ash Muk.png|200px|thumb|Muk easily absorbing attacks]]
Muk's first battle was in ''[[EP077|The Fourth Round Rumble]]'', where it was selected for use in the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]]. After [[Jeanette Fisher]]'s high-level {{p|Bellsprout}} had trounced {{AP|Bulbasaur}} and {{AP|Pikachu}}, Muk made a surprise appearance as Ash's third Pokémon. Muk easily absorbed Bellsprout's physical moves and {{m|Razor Leaf}} and then simply smothered Bellsprout with Body Slam, winning the match for Ash.

Muk was briefly called in ''[[EP102|The Mystery Menace]]'', where Ash used Muk to help him and {{Tracey}} find Misty, {{TP|Misty|Togepi}}, and {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, who was kidnapped by a giant {{p|Bulbasaur}} in a sewer. Muk and Kingler also offered to fight for Ash in the Orange Island Championship battle against {{OBP|Drake|Orange League}} in ''[[EP111|Hello, Pummelo!]]'', but Ash chose {{AP|Tauros}} instead.
[[File:Muk eager to fight.png|thumb|200px|left|Muk asking Ash to let it fight]]
Muk was reunited with Ash when he returned home in ''[[EP115|A Tent Situation]]''. Muk insisted on fighting Team Rocket, and Ash ordered it into battle instead of choosing Bulbasaur. Muk managed to resist {{m|Razor Leaf}} attacks from [[James]]'s {{TP|James|Victreebel}}, and showed off its newly learned Poison Gas when it bit down on it in an attempt to use {{m|Poison Powder}}. {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}}'s {{m|Lick}} was even less effective, wiping Muk's face ineffectively to the point of causing pleasure instead of damage. It was then put to sleep by {{m|Sleep Powder}}, but awoke after Gary intervened and drove Team Rocket away.

====Johto====
[[File:Ash Muk Gary Scizor.png|thumb|200px|Muk battling Gary's Scizor]]
Muk's only other major battle was when Ash called it up from Oak's Lab in ''[[EP270|Can't Beat the Heat!]]'', along with {{AP|Heracross}}, {{AP|Tauros}} and {{AP|Snorlax}} in order to fight {{Gary}} in the [[Silver Conference]]. It was sent out originally to fight {{TP|Gary|Blastoise}}, and the two fought to a stalemate, with Muk's Sludge Bomb deflected by {{m|Rapid Spin}} and Blastoise's physical attacks absorbed into Muk's body. Ash pulled Muk for his {{AP|Bayleef}} quickly after. It was sent out to fight {{p|Scizor}} later, who dodged a Sludge Bomb easily. Muk absorbed both {{m|Quick Attack}} and {{m|Metal Claw}}, but Scizor was able to throw Muk using the latter attack, ultimately defeating it with {{m|Swift}}.

Muk made an appearance in the [[SS004|special episodes]], where it was seen crushing [[Cassidy]], [[Butch]] and all of the stolen Poké Balls. It was also seen crushing Tracey when he opened the door to Oak's Lab to {{Delia}}.

===[[Advanced Generation series]]===
Muk appeared in ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]'' when Ash returned to Pallet Town. It greeted [[Professor Birch]] with its usual friendliness.

===[[Diamond & Pearl series]]===
Muk reappeared in ''[[DP182|An Old Family Blend!]]'', at Professor Oak's lab, and then it was transferred to Ash for a brief reunion. Muk was not seen participating in the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]].

===[[Best Wishes series]]===
Muk has made brief appearances in ''[[BW109|New Places... Familiar Faces!]]'' and ''[[BW123|Farewell, Unova! Setting Sail for New Adventures!]]'', smothering Professor Oak while Ash was calling him from [[Professor Juniper]]'s laboratory.

Muk was reunited with Ash in ''[[BW142|The Dream Continues!]]'', where it and the rest of Ash's Pokémon posed in a group photo with him.

==Personality and characteristics==
[[File:Ash Muk Oak affection.png|thumb|220px|Muk showing affection for its Trainer and Oak]]

Ash's Muk is an extremely happy and affectionate Pokémon. It grew an attachment in particular to {{an|Professor Oak}} and as a recurring gag, it would always smother the Professor whenever Ash would make a call to the [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|lab]]. This was first seen twenty episodes after its capture, in ''[[EP050|Who Gets To Keep Togepi?]]''. Muk tackled Professor Oak in excitement in ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-ké Corral]]'', when Oak explained that Muk and {{AP|Krabby|Kingler}} had become just like him from its long period of living with him.
[[File:Ash Muk Jessie affection.png|thumb|left|220px|Muk loves humans and it's not too particular what kind.]]
Muk's affection also extends to his Trainer, second in enthusiasm only to {{AP|Bayleef}}, despite only having fought for him on three occasions. Muk obligingly crushes Ash in excitement whenever Ash returns to the lab or summons it to his party. Its affection also extends to complete strangers, as was seen when it completely ignored [[Jessie's Lickitung]] in order to hug her, also smothering [[James's Victreebel]] in excitement. It also smothered [[Professor Birch#In the anime|Professor Birch]] upon meeting him in ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]''.

Its affection even extends to antagonists, as seen both in the aforementioned encounter with Jessie and James, and also in a special episode, ''[[SS004|Showdown at the Oak Corral]]'', when it actually appeared sad that {{AP|Totodile}} drove [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]] away. As Professor Oak said to Jessie, Muk loves humans, and it is not very particular to which kind.

Muk differs from most of Ash's other Pokémon in that it is a defensive Pokémon, with a low attack power and very few moves used across its entire time on the show. It has never been shown to be damaged by a physical attack, with its opponents' moves always absorbed by its odd body type. Despite being quite powerful and good in battle, it has only ever defeated one opponent, Bellsprout (it was put to sleep by Victreebel and knocked out against Gary without a win).
{{left clear}}
==Moves used==
{{anmov/h|poison||Ash Muk {{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 2}}|0=Sludge Bomb|1=Body Slam}}.png|Using {{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: U}} mod 2}}|0=Sludge Bomb|1=Body Slam}}}}
{{anmov|normal|Body Slam|EP077|The Fourth Round Rumble}}
{{anmov|poison|Sludge Bomb|EP270|Can't Beat the Heat!}}
{{anmov/f|poison}}

* In the English [[dub]] of ''[[EP115|A Tent Situation]]'', Ash commanded Muk to use {{m|Poison Gas}}. In the original Japanese version, he simply called Muk by its name.

==In the manga==
[[File:Ash Muk EToP.png|150px|thumb|Ash's Muk in The Electric Tale of Pikachu]]
===In the Ash & Pikachu manga===
Muk only appeared on the scoreboard in ''[[SP16|One Half Of A Poké Ball]]''.

===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
[[Ash Ketchum (EToP)|Ash]] caught Muk off-screen in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] manga. He later used it as his last Pokémon is his battle against [[Jeanette Fisher|Jeanette]] in ''[[ET12|Welcome to the Big Leagues]]''. Jeanette's {{p|Bellsprout}} had no chances of using its techniques against Muk's slimy body, and Ash won the battle.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* Muk is Ash's only Pokémon in the {{egg|Amorphous}} Egg Group.
* In {{game|Yellow}}, a game highly based on the anime, Muk can be found while walking in the [[Kanto Power Plant]], making a direct reference to Ash's Muk, which was also found in a power plant.
* Muk is Ash's only fully evolved Pokémon to know less than four moves.

{{StrategyWiki|Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen}}
'''Pokémon FireRed Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスターファイアレッド''' ''Pocket Monsters Firered''<ref name="romaji">Trademarked title</ref>) and '''Pokémon LeafGreen Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスターリーフグリーン''' ''Pocket Monsters Leafgreen''<ref name="romaji" />) are a pair of [[core series]] [[Generation III]] games that are set in the [[Kanto]] [[region]]. They were released in Japan on January 29, 2004, in North America on September 9, 2004, in Australia on September 23, 2004 and in Europe on October 1, 2004.

As the first [[remake]]s in the Pokémon franchise, the games revisit the original pair of Pokémon games, {{game|Red and Green|s|Pokémon Red and Green Versions}}, and so feature all of the characters, plot elements, and challenges of them, but with several important upgrades to bring them up to speed with other Generation III games.

The [[Game Boy Advance Wireless Adapter]] was initially included with the games when they were first released, eliminating the need for [[Game Link Cable]]s when trading between the two games (and later [[Pokémon Emerald Version]]). In later copies, it was sold separately.

FireRed and LeafGreen went on to become the second best-selling games of the [[Game Boy Advance]], only behind [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions]]. They also received [[Nintendo]]'s ''{{wp|Nintendo Selects|Player's Choice}}'' awards.

==Plot==
{{spoilers}}
The plot essentially follows the same storyline as [[Generation I]], with the {{player}} beginning in [[Pallet Town]]. After meeting [[Professor Oak]] while trying to leave for {{rt|1|Kanto}}, both the player and his or her [[rival]] are asked by Oak to choose a [[starter Pokémon]], {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, or {{p|Squirtle}}, from the desk near him. Oak allows the player to choose first and the [[rival]] quickly gets jealous, chooses the starter whose [[type]] weakens that of the player's, and challenges the player to a {{pkmn|battle}}. During this Pokémon battle [[Professor Oak]] commentates.

After the battle has ended, Oak allows the two new Trainers to leave for their journey across [[Kanto]]. Stopping off in [[Viridian City]]'s [[Poké Mart]], the player will find that a {{key|III|Oak's Parcel|package}} has come in for the professor, and the clerk asks that it be delivered to him. After this has been completed, the professor gives two [[Pokédex]]es, one for the player, and one for the rival, away to them, and sends them on their way. Viridian City has a Gym; however, it is locked.

From here, the player has their first encounter with other Trainers, on {{rt|2|Kanto}} and in [[Viridian Forest]], and their first encounter with a [[Gym Leader]]: [[Brock]] the {{type|Rock}} Gym Leader of [[Pewter City]]. After his defeat, journeying along {{rt|3|Kanto}} and through [[Mt. Moon]] brings the player face to face with the regional [[villainous teams|villainous team]], [[Team Rocket]], who are attempting to extract rare [[Fossil]]s from the cave. Their defeat allows the player to continue through the cave, obtain the [[Dome and Helix Fossils|Dome Fossil]] or [[Dome and Helix Fossils|Helix Fossil]] which can be regenerated into {{p|Kabuto}} and {{p|Omanyte}}, and continue onto {{rt|4|Kanto}}, which leads directly into [[Cerulean City]], where another [[Gym]] is. This one, however, is run by [[Misty]], and specializes in {{type|Water}} Pokémon. To the north, as well, there are two [[route]]s leading up to [[Bill]]'s cottage. On the way, the player is confronted with a trainer who tries to persuade them to join [[Team Rocket]]. When the player reaches [[Bill]]'s cottage and frees him of his transformation into a [[Clefairy]], he will give the player a ticket for the [[S.S. Anne]], a luxury ship moored in {{ci|Vermilion}} Harbor and filled with Trainers. Taking a shortcut through a house burglarized by Team Rocket, the player finally arrives at {{rt|5|Kanto}}.

After traveling down Routes 5 and {{rtn|6|Kanto}}, using the {{OBP|Underground Path|Routes 5-6}} to bypass [[Saffron City]], the player finally arrives in {{ci|Vermilion}}. This city is home to another Pokémon Gym; however, the way to it is blocked by a small tree. The only thing to do is to show the ticket to the {{tc|Sailor}} guarding the harbor, allowing entry into the S.S. Anne. It is here, after assisting the captain with his seasickness, that the player will obtain the first of the seven [[HM|Hidden Machines]] available in the game, containing {{m|Cut}}. With this, and the {{Badge|Cascade}}, the tree blocking the way to Vermilion Gym can be easily cut through, and [[Lt. Surge]], a Gym Leader specializing in {{type|Electric}}s, can be challenged. From here, {{rt|11|Kanto}} beckons, as does [[Diglett's Cave]], through which is the only way to get back to {{rt|2|Kanto}}, and a second HM, containing {{m|Flash}} held by one of [[Professor Oak]]'s aides on {{rt|2|Kanto}}. The player takes a brief detour to Pewter City's museum's back entrance which was previously blocked due to a Cut-able tree, which can now easily be bypassed. The player obtains the [[Old Amber]] in the museum. Heading back to Diglett's Cave, and to Vermilion, the player must go to Cerulean and to the east, onto {{rt|9|Kanto}} and towards the [[Rock Tunnel]].

Rock Tunnel, a still undeveloped natural tunnel between the sections of {{rt|10|Kanto}}, is pitch black inside; for this reason, {{m|Flash}} is recommended, but not required, for navigation of it. Finally reaching [[Lavender Town]], the only town in Kanto without a Pokémon Gym besides Pallet, there is not much to do; the local [[Pokémon Tower]] is haunted. From here, {{rt|8|Kanto}} leads to Saffron City, but it again must be bypassed by way of another {{OBP|Underground Path|Routes 7-8}}, which has its other entrance on {{rt|7|Kanto}}, on the west side of Saffron. [[Celadon City]], the home of the fourth Gym which specializes in {{type|Grass}} Pokémon, is just a short walk further. Like the Vermilion Gym, the Celadon Gym also has a small tree blocking the way to its entrance, and an old man outside.

The [[Rocket Game Corner]] in Celadon is not what it appears to be. In fact, the Game Corner itself is merely the above ground portion of a sprawling underground complex: the [[Rocket Hideout]]. The Team Rocket boss, Giovanni, appears for the first time here, and after his defeat, flees, leaving behind a Silph Scope. A Silph Scope is required to fully navigate the Pokémon Tower inside of Lavender Town that the player encountered earlier.

After this, the Pokémon Tower can be navigated, and the ghosts haunting it are revealed to be {{p|Gastly}} and {{p|Haunter}}. In front of the stairs to the final floor, blocking the way, is also a final spirit, that of a deceased {{p|Marowak}} that was killed by Team Rocket when they captured her child. Making it all the way to the top reveals [[Mr. Fuji]] held hostage by Team Rocket grunts, who will leave when they are defeated. Fuji gives away the [[Poké Flute]], and with that, the {{p|Snorlax}} blocking {{rt|11|Kanto}} and {{rt|16|Kanto}} can finally be moved away. Another HM, containing {{m|Fly}}, can be obtained easily by cutting away a tree blocking the northern section of Route 16.

Now the player is presented with a choice of how to get to [[Fuchsia City]]. Traveling down either way the Snorlax are blocking, a faster way via Routes 16, {{rtn|17|Kanto}}, and {{rtn|18|Kanto}} on [[Kanto Route 17|Cycling Road]], or down the {{DL|Kanto Route 12|Silence Bridge}} of Routes {{rtn|12|Kanto}}, {{rtn|13|Kanto}}, {{rtn|14|Kanto}}, and {{rtn|15|Kanto}}, inevitably brings one to the southernmost city in continental Kanto, [[Fuchsia City]], home of [[Koga]] of the {{t|Poison}}ous Fuchsia Gym and the [[Kanto Safari Zone]]. The Safari Zone is currently running a contest: the person to reach a specific rest house first will win yet another HM, containing {{m|Surf}}. Finding the [[Baoba|Safari Zone Warden]]'s {{key|III|Gold Teeth}} also will have him reward the player with the final of Kanto's HMs, containing {{m|Strength}}.

The player then goes back to either [[Celadon City]] or [[Lavender Town]], encountering the other {{p|Snorlax}} on the way back. After stopping off at the [[Celadon Condominiums|Celadon Mansion]] and getting some {{DL|Drink|Tea}}, Saffron City can finally be entered. However, Team Rocket is guarding almost every door in the city, including that of the local Pokémon Gym! One of the open buildings, however, is the unofficial Fighting-type Pokémon Gym. After the player defeats the Fighting Dojo, he/she is entitled to either a {{p|Hitmonchan}} or a {{p|Hitmonlee}}. The city's centerpiece building, [[Silph Co.]]'s headquarters, has also been infiltrated by the organization, and at the top, waiting in the boardroom, is the Team Rocket Boss, [[Giovanni]], appearing for a second time, demanding that the president give him the [[Master Ball]] that the company had developed. After his defeat, he flees.

After Team Rocket clears out of [[Saffron City]], all buildings previously blocked are now open, as well as the Gym. The Gym Leader, [[Sabrina]], specializes in {{type|Psychic}}s. The floor, as well, is covered in warp tiles that make it difficult to navigate. After Sabrina's defeat, the player makes his/her way back to Fuchsia City again, and heads out to obtain the rest of the Badges.

With six Badges in hand, and five HMs in the {{key|III|TM Case}}, finally the player can adventure onto the open sea of Routes {{rtn|19|Kanto}} and {{rtn|20|Kanto}}. A short way across them, of course, is a minor obstacle: the [[Seafoam Islands]]. After they have been navigated through, the player can continue on Route 20 to [[Cinnabar Island]], home of [[Blaine]]'s {{type|Fire}} Gym. There are also several more facilities on the island, including one that actually revives Pokémon [[Fossil]]s. After Blaine's defeat, [[Bill]] shows up again, because he needs help in a small region south of Kanto, the [[Sevii Islands]]. If the player accepts, the [[Seagallop|Seagallop Ferry]] will travel to {{OBP|One Island|town}}, where a friend of Bill's, [[Celio]], is attempting to connect the islands' PC system to that of Kanto. During this, there is also a crisis in {{OBP|Two Island|town}}, where the daughter of the owner of the [[Joyful Game Corner]] has gone missing, and in {{OBP|Three Island|town}} where a group of invading {{tc|Biker}}s are causing trouble. After defeating them and finding the lost girl, [[Lostelle]], who is in [[Berry Forest]], Bill and the player will return to Kanto, where the final Gym, that of Viridian City, lies.

Finally unlocked, the Gym, whose leader specializes in {{type|Ground}}s, is revealed to be none other than the boss of Team Rocket himself, [[Giovanni]]! After his defeat, he vows to disband Team Rocket and disappears. Now with eight Badges, all that lies ahead is the [[Pokémon League]] at [[Indigo Plateau]], conveniently at the end of {{rt|23|Kanto}}.

The [[Elite Four]] await challengers, those who have proven themselves worthy by getting all eight Badges and making it through {{ka|Victory Road}} will face them, in order. [[Lorelei]], who [[Pokémon training|trains]] {{type|Ice}} Pokémon is first, followed by [[Bruno]], whose specialty is {{t|Fighting}}, [[Agatha]], whose specialty is {{t|Ghost}}, and finally [[Lance]], who specializes in {{type|Dragon}}s. After defeating these four, the reigning [[Pokémon Champion]] challenges the player to a final battle, and the Champion is none other than the player's own rival! After his defeat, Oak arrives and tells the player that they won because they care better for their Pokémon, and the player's current [[party]] are added to the [[Hall of Fame]].

===Post-game===
After the credits roll, the player is back in Pallet Town. [[Professor Oak]] will have the player come to his lab to check on the Pokédex, if the player has obtained at least 60 Pokémon he will then upgrade it to the [[National Pokédex]], in which he will then ask the player to go back to the Sevii Islands to encounter Pokémon that Professor Oak has never before seen.

There is some more work that Celio needs to do on his network machine, as he wishes to link to yet [[Hoenn|another region]]. The signal, however, is not strong enough, and he needs the Ruby and the Sapphire, two items found in the Sevii Islands, to strengthen it. The Ruby is found deep in a cave in [[Mt. Ember]], which Team Rocket grunts have been seen fooling around with. The Sapphire lies at the deepest part of the [[Dotted Hole]] in [[Ruin Valley]]. The Ruby can be given to Celio without a hitch; however, the Sapphire, when found, is stolen by a {{tc|Scientist}} named [[Gideon]], who takes it back to Team Rocket's [[Rocket Warehouse|warehouse]] in the [[Five Isle Meadow]]. By infiltrating the warehouse and defeating the remaining Rocket Admins, they realize that Giovanni has disbanded Team Rocket. They do, however, [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|vow to return one day]], and bring Team Rocket back to its former glory. Gideon reluctantly gives back the Sapphire, and after this, trades are possible with the [[Hoenn]]-based {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}. The Elite Four can once again be challenged, and their Pokémon are 12 levels higher, with some of them possessing new Pokémon. In addition, [[Cerulean Cave]] is now open, and the powerful {{p|Mewtwo}} can be found there. {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Suicune}}, or {{p|Raikou}} will also begin roaming the Kanto region, depending on whether the player chose {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, or {{p|Squirtle}}, respectively, as their starter Pokémon.

==Changes from Pokémon Red and Green==
{{Cleanup|section}}
===Gameplay===
[[Image:FireRed First Battle.png|thumb|right|The battle screen]]
* {{Player|Players}} can now play as a {{ga|Leaf|female character}} as an alternative to the {{ga|Red|male character}}, which was the only option in [[Generation I]].
* A resume feature was introduced, allowing players to remember the four most important events they achieved in the games the last time they were played. Once the [[Elite Four]] has been defeated, the resume feature displays the last four notable things the player has done recently instead of showing a specific event.
* A game introduction feature, which explains the controls of the game, was added. This feature continued to appear in all games in [[Generation IV]].
* A help feature was added that can be activated by pressing the L or R buttons on the console. There is also another help feature in the form of the {{key|III|Teachy TV}}, which is given by an {{ka|old man}} in [[Viridian City]].
* A new southern region, the [[Sevii Islands]], is accessible, where [[Generation II]] Pokémon can be caught. Notably, most of these Pokémon cannot be found in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}.
* {{m|Bite}}, {{m|Sand-Attack}}, {{m|Karate Chop}}, and {{m|Gust}} have changed types.
* [[Team Rocket]] has an expanded role in the game's post-Elite Four storyline, with a new base in the Sevii Islands.
* Pokémon can [[Pokémon breeding|breed]] in the [[Pokémon Day Care]] in {{OBP|Four Island|town}}. The daycare on {{rt|5|Kanto}} remains, but it is still limited to only caring for one Pokémon at a time.
* The Ability {{a|Pickup}} has been modified from {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}, which also includes that some of the [[Berry|Berries]] from those versions can be picked up in FireRed and LeafGreen. This is due to the inability to grow Berries in [[Kanto]]. The other Berries can only be collected by trading Pokémon from those versions as well as {{v2|Emerald}}.
* A man is present in a house in [[Cerulean City]] and will help create [[Berry Powder]] via [[Berry Crush]]. This powder can then be exchanged for rare and valuable items.
* {{pkmn|Trainer}}s outdoors can be rebattled using the [[Vs. Seeker]].
* Information on major characters, such as [[Gym Leader]]s, is recorded in the [[Fame Checker]].
* Three additional aides for Professor Oak have been added to reward the player with items that were introduced in Generations II and III, while a returning aide now gives out the {{DL|Experience-affecting item|Exp. Share}}, the upgraded version of the Generation I item {{DL|Experience-affecting item|Exp. All}}.
* Pokémon movelists are updated to include moves introduced in [[Generation II]] and [[Generation III]].
* The [[TM]] list is shared with other Generation III games. In addition, [[Move Tutor]]s become available to teach moves formerly contained in [[Generation I]] TMs.
* The [[Elite Four]] can be rebattled, and acquire {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} on their teams after the [[Sevii Islands]] quest has been completed.
* {{m|Blast Burn}}, {{m|Frenzy Plant}}, and {{m|Hydro Cannon}} are available as Move Tutor moves at [[Cape Brink]] on [[Two Island]]. They can only be taught to the final evolved form of the player's [[starter Pokémon]], or other members of that same species.
* There is a new minigame corner, the [[Joyful Game Corner]], on [[Two Island]], where players can connect together, along with {{v2|Emerald}}, and can play multiplayer minigames ([[Pokémon Jump]] and [[Dodrio Berry Picking]]) over the [[Wireless Adapter|wireless communication system]]. This feature becomes usable after the events at [[Three Island]].
* [[Cerulean Cave]] in these games is very similar to the one in {{2v2|Red|Green}}. The only difference is the Generation III addition of {{m|Rock Smash}} boulders.
===Pokémon===
* As in all [[Generation III]] {{pkmn|games}}, Pokémon now have [[nature]]s, [[Ability|Abilities]], and [[gender]]s, and can [[held item|hold items]].
* {{p|Magnemite}} and {{p|Magneton}} now are {{2t|Electric|Steel}}, as they have been since [[Generation II]]. In the original {{v2|Red and Green|s}} games, they were pure {{type|Electric}}.
* Pokémon retain their Generation II and III [[evolution]]ary lines (e.g. {{p|Golbat}} can evolve into {{p|Crobat}}), but cannot evolve into these new stages until after the player has obtained the [[National Pokédex]]. {{p|Eevee}} is the only exception to this, since {{p|Espeon}} and {{p|Umbreon}} cannot be obtained due to the lack of a clock system in the game, and trading between the other Generation III games is required to obtain them.
* {{p|Ponyta}} and {{p|Magmar}} (LeafGreen only) have been moved to new locations. Ponyta is now located on One Island's [[Kindle Road]], and Magmar is now at [[Mt. Ember]]. In Generation I, they were both found in the {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}} on [[Cinnabar Island]].
* {{p|Deoxys}} debuts two new forms: Attack Forme (FireRed) and Defense Forme (LeafGreen), which appear exclusively in the respective games.
* Moltres has moved from its original location in {{ka|Victory Road}} to [[Mt. Ember]]. [[Cerulean Cave]], where Mewtwo resides, now requires {{m|Rock Smash}} for navigation, and it cannot be entered until after the post-game mission in the Sevii Islands has been completed.
* One of [[Johto]]'s [[legendary beasts]] ({{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, or {{p|Suicune}}) will [[Roaming Pokémon|roam]] around Kanto after completing the Network Machine quest on the Sevii Islands during the post-game. The beast that appears is the one that has a type advantage over the player's [[starter Pokémon]].
* [[Game-exclusive Pokémon]] and [[wild Pokémon]] distribution have been altered from the original games to account for new evolutions released in [[Generation II]].
===Graphics===
[[File:MaleVsFemale NPC font FRLG JP.png|thumb|right|Japanese version font difference Top: male NPC, bottom: female NPC Note the common word ポケモン (Pokémon)]]
* Dialogue text is rendered differently based on the gender of the [[non-player character]]s.
** In the Japanese versions, male NPCs are given a computer-style font while female NPCs show a font that resembles handwritten text. Text from other sources uses the same font as male NPCs.
** In non-Japanese versions, the differentiation is instead done with colors: male NPCs use blue text and female NPCs use pink text. Text from other sources is black.
* When entering certain locations such as [[Viridian Forest]] or [[Diglett's Cave]], an image of the location appears.
* The boy who prevents the player from leaving Pewter City before Brock is defeated (by escorting the player to the Gym) now returns the way he came. In Generation I, he would instead walk east and vanish offscreen, where a barrier prevents the player from walking.

The following Pokémon are only obtainable in one game of this pair. In order to obtain Pokémon exclusive to the other game of this pair, they must be traded either from that game or from another compatible game of [[Generation III]] which has that Pokémon available. In addition, {{p|Mew}}, several {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} and a majority of {{cat|Generation III Pokémon}} must be traded from a [[Hoenn]]-based game; only three Generation III Pokémon — {{p|Azurill}}, {{p|Wynaut}}, and {{p|Deoxys}} — can be obtained in FireRed and LeafGreen.

==Compatibility==
FireRed and LeafGreen were created as a result of the first [[Generation III]] games, {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, lacking backward compatibility with Generations {{gen|I}} and {{gen|II}}. [[Trade|Trading]] between these games and the third Hoenn-based game, {{game|Emerald}}, is possible through the traditional [[Game Link Cable]]. Trading with other copies of FireRed or LeafGreen as well as with Emerald may also be done through the [[GBA Wireless Adapter]], though Ruby and Sapphire are not compatible with it. Using a GameCube-GBA cable, players may also trade party Pokémon with {{g|Colosseum}} and {{Pokémon XD}}, but only after the player has obtained the {{key|III|Ruby}} and {{key|III|Sapphire}} and given them to [[Celio]].

While FireRed and LeafGreen cannot trade directly with the [[Generation IV]] games {{game5|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, a player's Pokémon may be permanently transferred via [[Pal Park]], and some {{cat|Generation I Pokémon}} can be found using [[dual-slot mode]].

==Reception==
FireRed and LeafGreen received strong sales. Over 800,000 copies were sold in Japan over the first week of release. This number was lower than that of counterparts {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}; this has been attributed to the fact that they are remakes.<ref>[http://au.gameboy.ign.com/articles/488/488976p1.html IGN: Pokemania] (retrieved December 21, 2009)</ref> Nintendo remarketed the games as "Player's Choice" two years after the initial release; this re-release did not include the [[Game Boy Advance Wireless Adapter|Wireless Adapter]] that came with the original release.

The games were praised by critics for maintaining the same storyline as the original versions, and also for incorporating new events. Criticism was received, however, for the lack of graphical improvement from Ruby and Sapphire.<ref>[http://au.gameboy.ign.com/articles/544/544549p1.html IGN: Pokemon FireRed Version Review] (retrieved December 21, 2009)</ref> Generally, the games scored highly. ''[[Nintendo Power]]'' magazine gave them 4.5/5, and labeled the games as "great".<ref>''Nintendo Power'' magazine. Issue 184; page 123. October 2004.</ref>

==Music==

The soundtrack contains all of the background music from the games, composed by [[Junichi Masuda]], [[Gō Ichinose]], and [[Morikazu Aoki]]. Much of the music is remixed from ''[[Game Boy: Entire Pokémon Sounds Collection CD]]'', the soundtrack for {{game|Red and Green|s}} and {{game|Red and Blue|s}}.

==Development==
:''For unused content, see [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen beta]].
Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen were announced in September 2003<ref>[http://dengekionline.com/data/news/2003/9/13/ddc45c31a5c8d1e2b434336730292ffc.html 『ポケモン赤・緑』がGBAで甦る！『ファイアレッド』『リーフグリーン』発売決定 - 電撃オンライン] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20071012031840/http://www.dengekionline.com/data/news/2003/9/13/ddc45c31a5c8d1e2b434336730292ffc.html earliest archived copy])</ref> as [[Game Boy Advance]] remakes of {{game|Red and Green|s}} that are compatible with {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} as well as the then-unreleased {{g|Colosseum}} for the [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]]. [[Game Freak]]'s [[Junichi Masuda]] stated that these games were developed around the idea of simplicity<ref name="HPJ">[http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir/?p=109 増田部長のめざめるパワー]</ref><ref name="HPE">[http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir_english/?p=25 HIDDEN POWER of masuda]</ref>.

The introduction of the [[Game Boy Advance Wireless Adapter]] was touted as one of the new features in FireRed and LeafGreen, the first titles to support and include it as part of the core experience. Former [[Nintendo]] president [[Satoru Iwata]] praised the Wireless Adapter for its enhancements to multiplayer functionality, including in the Pokémon games.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20061115104220/http://www.gamespot.com/gba/rpg/pokemonred/news.html?sid=6075891 TGS 2003: Wireless GBA multiplayer for 2004 - Game Boy Advance News at GameSpot]</ref>

[[Tsunekazu Ishihara]], CEO of [[The Pokémon Company]], when questioned about the reason behind the remakes of Red and Green in an interview with IGN at E3 2004, declared that they did not see FireRed and LeafGreen as remakes but rather as new games sporting wireless functionality.<ref name="IGN">[http://www.ign.com/articles/2004/05/13/e3-2004-the-pokemon-creators-speak E3 2004: The Pokemon Creators Speak - IGN]</ref>

<blockquote>We don't feel that this a remake at all. We feel that this is a new game, with wireless technology. The reason why they are Red and Green is that they were the most popular games in the Pokemon series, and we wanted to introduce the concept again for the GBA. And it's been eight years since Red and Blue, so our target audience changes in that time, and the new audience will see {{p|Pikachu}} or {{p|Charizard}} as new characters.</blockquote>

When asked about [[Satoshi Tajiri]]'s current involvement in Pokémon, Ishihara stated that he oversaw the whole development process of FireRed and LeafGreen, including the text.<ref name="IGN"/>

<blockquote>It's really Mr. Tajiri's creation, and this is a new version of his creation. So he supervised the whole process and the new text. He oversaw all the new features added to his creation.</blockquote>

According to Junichi Masuda, LeafGreen was not retitled to match Blue internationally for the following reasons:<ref name="HPJ"/><ref name="HPE"/>
* A leaf is a symbol of peace, while fire and water are opposing concepts and thus would seem more like a conflict. A leaf is also an easier concept to grasp and translate into other languages, and in this world of conflicts, the creators wanted to give a name suggestive of a peaceful world.
* The developers also wanted a colorful drawing of a {{p|Bulbasaur}} family member on the boxart. Masuda explains that, as with [[legendary Pokémon]], creating a title for each Pokémon game that can be used and easily understood in all countries is not an easy task.

==Trivia==
[[File:S S Anne truck FRLG.png|thumb|The infamous truck]]
* The LeafGreen [[Pokédex]] entries are the same as those in the original {{game|Red and Blue|s}} as well as the [[Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|Japanese Blue]] for the {{cat|Generation I Pokémon}}. The FireRed entries for the same Pokémon are the same as those in the original {{game|Red and Green|s}}. This makes it the first time the original Red and Green entries have been translated into English.
* {{DL|S.S. Anne|Rumors|The truck}}, long rumored to have a [[Poké Ball]] containing {{p|Mew}} under it, appears again as scenery near the [[S.S. Anne]]. This time around however, as an easter egg, there is a {{DL|Status condition healing item|Lava Cookie}} hidden on the dock, which normally cannot be obtained until much later in the game.
* FireRed and LeafGreen are the only pair of remakes that uses the same Pokédex listing as the original games for the regional Pokédex.
* Along with the original [[Generation I]] games, these are the only core series games that do not involve a [[legendary Pokémon]] in their main plot. Incidentally, they are also the last [[core series]] Pokémon games to feature a non-legendary Pokémon on the front cover.
* If a FireRed or LeafGreen cart is present in Slot 2 of the [[Nintendo DS]], the migration option in the [[main menu]] of {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} is incorrectly stated as "Migrate from Fire Red" or "Migrate from Leaf Green", with a space in the middle of the version names. This typo was fixed in {{game|Platinum}}, [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|HeartGold, and SoulSilver]] by removing the space.
* FireRed and LeafGreen are the last core series games to have no [[time]]-based features (since neither the console nor the cartridges have internal clocks), and the only ones to not have them since their introduction in [[Generation II]].
* In the end credits, the [[game mascot]]s of the four [[Generation I]] games, {{p|Venusaur}}, {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Blastoise}}, and {{p|Pikachu}}, appear with special 3-frame sprites, transforming from their in-game sprites to the pose they took on the Japanese boxart of their respective games. In the Japanese versions, they are inside a circle with the text ''THE POCKET MONSTER TRAINER'', which is colored to match the Pokémon's type. In international versions this is replaced by a Poké Ball symbol, also colored based on the Pokémon's type.

==Typographical errors==
[[File:Pokcet.png|thumb|The Teachy TV error, showing "Pocket" as "Pokcet"]]
* Any {{pkmn|category}} names with more than one word are [[List of glitches in Generation III#Pokédex category oversight|cut off]] in early English releases of the games, causing for example Pokémon like {{p|Pidgey}} to be listed as "Tiny Pokémon" rather than "Tiny Bird Pokémon." [[Pokédex data structure in Generation III|Internal game data]] lists the categories the same as they appear in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} and other games, indicating a mistake in the Pokédex where a blank space is misread for the terminating byte for the name. This was addressed in the later Player's Choice releases of the game. Alongside the missing word "Presents" in the game's opening, this is the easiest way to tell whether a particular game is a v1.0 or v1.1 release.
* In {{key|III|Teachy TV}}, during the program about registering items, the second instance of the word pocket in the phrase "Key Items Pocket" is misspelled as "Pokcet". This was not addressed in v1.1.

The '''third generation''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|第三世代|だいさんせだい}}''' ''third generation'') of Pokémon games, also sometimes known as the '''advance''' or '''advanced generation''', is the third set of Pokémon games released, and is described by some to be a "{{wp|reboot (fiction)|resetting}}" of the series.

Centering around {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} on the [[Game Boy Advance]], released in 2002 and 2004 respectively (2003 and 2005 outside of Japan), Generation III broke from the continuous storyline that had been established between [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II]], opting instead to move players to the [[Hoenn]] region, an island [[region]] disconnected from [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]]. The games themselves are incompatible with the previous two generations as well, initially causing many complaints due to the unavailability of many popular Generation I and II Pokémon in Ruby and Sapphire. This problem was remedied, however, between the release of Hoenn's paired versions and third version, with remakes of Generation I's {{game|Red and Green|s}} appearing as {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} on the Game Boy Advance, as well as [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]] on the [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]].

Details in the Hoenn- and Kanto-based games hint that the storyline of Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald is contemporaneous with that of FireRed and LeafGreen (and due to this, contemporaneous with Generation I as well), placing Generation III three years before Generation II and [[Generation IV]], themselves contemporaneous. It is unknown where the storylines of [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]] fall in the timeline, being five years apart from each other but making no reference to their time period relative to any of the main series games.

==Advances in gameplay==
Through its incompatibility with [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II]], Generation III enhanced the Pokémon world the most yet, bringing about the most changes to the world of Pokémon. The advances include:
* The addition of {{cat|Generation III Pokémon|135 new Pokémon}}, the most added since Generation I (at the time of its release), bringing the total to 386. Many new Pokémon have previously unseen type combinations, while {{p|Wynaut|only}} {{p|Azurill|two}} of them are related by evolution to {{p|Wobbuffet|older}} {{p|Marill|Pokémon}}.
* Two new forms of {{p|Unown}} are also introduced.
* The addition of 103 new [[move]]s, bringing the total to 354.
* Pokémon may now have one or two of 77 different [[Ability|Abilities]], special attributes in addition to types and moves which can change the tide of battle or affect out-of-battle gameplay.
* The [[Pokémon Storage System]] has changed from a text-based interface to a full-color graphical user interface. Boxes, while remaining at 14, now have 10 extra spaces, allowing for storage of 140 additional Pokémon (for a total of 420 Pokémon).
* The introduction of [[Pokémon Contest]]s, where Pokémon show off their style in one of five [[Contest condition]]s, with Contest stats enhanced by [[Pokéblock]]s. Through this and other methods [[Ribbon]]s can be won for Pokémon, which they will retain when transferred to a Generation IV game.
* A brand-new region, [[Hoenn]], with its own set of eight [[Gym Leader]]s and [[Elite Four]]. The player characters are also different from the previous games.
* Seven new {{DL|Poké Ball|Introduced in Generation III|Poké Ball}} variants, replacing those introduced in and exclusive to Johto.
* New [[villainous teams]], [[Team Aqua]] and [[Team Magma]], whose focus is on capturing the Legendary Pokémon {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}, respectively.
* [[Weather]] can now be found on the field and activate at the start of battle, while one more, {{weather|hail}}, has been added.
* [[Double Battle]]s, where both sides use two Pokémon at a time, are introduced.
* Communication capabilities with the [[e-Reader]] to activate certain [[events]].
* All handheld Generation III games have a framerate of 60, allowing for smoother animations.
* Link trades and battles are made possible between Japanese and international releases due to the use of a worldwide character set. Due to the fact that online trading was introduced only in Generation IV, however, most are not made aware of this.

===Major alterations from Generation II===
* A complete overhaul of the Pokémon data structure; Pokémon now have an individual [[personality value]] which can range up to a number above four billion. [[Ability|Abilities]] and [[nature]]s, also newly introduced, are determined based on this value, as is a Pokémon's [[gender]], while the {{IV}} system has been overhauled for greater variance (0-31 rather than 0-15 as it was before). {{shiny|Shininess}} is now based on a calculation between the personality value and [[Original Trainer]]'s [[Trainer ID number]] and secret ID number with the same rarity.
* An overhaul of the [[Berry]] system introduced in Generation II: old Berries rejected in favor of Berries which grow individually as plants and can be picked and planted elsewhere. The Berries are now named after real life fruits instead of their "basic" names from the previous generation. The effects of the first ten new Berries are similar to the ten Generation II Berries.
* Each Pokémon has its own status screen sprite, for ease of use in the party screen or PC.

===Further additions in {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}===
* Wireless communication between games (requires adapter boxed with FireRed and LeafGreen).
* The ability to move multiple Pokémon in the PC at once.
* The [[Sevii Islands]], a collection of nine islands that contain many Pokémon otherwise only found in the [[Johto]] region.

===Further additions in Emerald===
* [[Multi Battle]]s, where two opponent Trainers encounter the player at once and battle in a Double Battle.
* A {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}, adding to the original {{Gdis|Battle Tower|III}}, and featuring [[Frontier Brain|Trainers who head each facility]].

===Alterations from Generation II===
* The function of the [[time|built-in clock]] was greatly reduced. There are no cosmetic changes during different times of day and Pokémon appearances are not affected by time. Also, the day of the week is no longer tracked.
** {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}} have no built-in clock at all.
* The seven [[Poké Ball]]s made from [[Apricorn]]s, along with Apricorns themselves, are unavailable in Generation III.

==Regions==
===Hoenn===
[[File:HoennIIIE.png|thumb|250px|Hoenn]]
{{main|Hoenn}}
The [[Hoenn]] region, situated somewhat southwest of [[Johto]], was introduced in Generation III. It is more tropical than either [[Kanto]] or Johto, featuring {{rt|119|Hoenn|rainforests}}, {{rt|111|Hoenn|deserts}}, and [[Fiery Path|volcanic caves]], as well as areas deep [[underwater]].

This region's geography is mostly rural on the interior of the continent, with major cities springing up near its ample coasts. [[Route]]s between the cities can be treacherous, with densely-forested area covering much of the land. [[Legendary Pokémon]] are said to have created the region long ago, with its shape reminiscent of a {{wp|Taijitu|yin-yang symbol}} reflecting the balance between land and sea.

Several ancient ruins are found around the region; their purpose remains to be discovered by the player, though ancient writings found deep beneath the sea south of the region indicate that within them are ancient Pokémon who were sealed away due to their power.

====Starter Pokémon====
Like before, the starter trio follows the Grass-Fire-Water alignment, with new Pokémon {{p|Treecko}}, {{p|Torchic}}, and {{p|Mudkip}} being the three Pokémon the player has to choose from to save [[Professor Birch]] from a wild {{p|Poochyena}} ({{p|Zigzagoon}} in {{v2|Emerald}}) at the start of the game.

====Gym Leaders====
As in previous generations, all Gym Leaders give out Badges and [[TM]]s on their defeat.

===Kanto===
[[File:FRLG Kanto.png|thumb|250px|Kanto]]
{{main|Kanto}}
Kanto, which in Generation II lacked some features from its original appearance, returned in a state closer to its original form in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, with all features from [[Generation I]] brought back and improved.

====Starter Pokémon====
As the Generation III games taking place in Kanto are remakes of Generation I games, the starters are the same as in that generation; they are the {{type|Grass}} {{p|Bulbasaur}}, the {{type|Fire}} {{p|Charmander}}, and the {{type|Water}} {{p|Squirtle}}.

====Gym Leaders====
Like the starter Pokémon, the Kanto Gym Leaders are also the same as they were before, with each giving out a TM for the player to use freely as well as their Badge.

===Sevii Islands===
{{main|Sevii Islands}}
The Sevii Islands, appearing only in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, are a smaller region without a [[Pokémon League]] where the player can journey later in the game. These islands make available many {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} to players of the Generation III games, and through events, allow for the capture of Generation II's [[game mascot]]s {{p|Ho-Oh}} and {{p|Lugia}} and the mysterious Pokémon {{p|Deoxys}}.

==Other Generation III games==
[[Pokémon Colosseum]], for the [[Nintendo GameCube]], features a new land called [[Orre]] where several [[Generation II]] and Generation III Pokémon are altered by two teams called [[Cipher]] and [[Team Snagem]]. Players must "snag" the "[[Shadow Pokémon]]" and cure them of their darkness. Once this is completed, the Pokémon may be transferred to the other Generation III games. Pokémon Colosseum is the first 3D Pokémon RPG. This game also features an advanced [[Stadium Mode]] similar to those of the [[Pokémon Stadium series|Pokémon Stadium]] games.

{{g|Box Ruby & Sapphire}} is another Generation III game for the Nintendo GameCube. It allows:
* Storage of up to 1500 Pokémon from Ruby, Sapphire, FireRed, LeafGreen and Emerald Versions.
* Playing Pokémon Ruby and Pokémon Sapphire on the television through emulation.

[[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], also for the Nintendo GameCube, follows a storyline that takes place a few years after the story of Colosseum. It allows for snagging of rare Generation I, II, and III Pokémon as well, and includes a difficult-to-purify final Shadow Pokémon, a [[Shadow Lugia]].

Six spin-off Pokémon games are based on Generation III: [[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire]], [[Pokémon Dash]], {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}, [[Pokémon Trozei!]], and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]].

==Discussion of Generation III==
While the opinion of the fandom shifts from time to time, Generation III is notable for drawing the most criticism for the series yet. The sense of a reboot when players were thrust into Hoenn (which excludes 184 of the older 251 Pokémon from availability) with no way to recover their old Pokémon drew ire from some fans. The game also saw a jump in newly introduced Legendary Pokémon, with 10 more introduced, a significant increase from Generation II, which only introduced 6.

Later games improved this, however, with Emerald's return to Hoenn being a welcome addition to the series (and including the first {{Gdis|Battle Frontier|III}} in the series as well). FireRed and LeafGreen brought back nostalgic fans who decided to pass on Hoenn's primary paired versions, as well as bringing new fans to the Kanto region, only previously available in its fullest state on the [[Game Boy]].

===Hoenn thematic motif===
The third generation of Pokémon games were more directed towards nature and relationships. The three starters were collectively more symbolic to their elements than previous starters: {{p|Mudkip}} is based on a fish which thrives only in {{t|Water}}, {{p|Torchic}} is a chick (which, in the real world, needs warmth in order to hatch) holding its {{t|Fire}} internally, and {{p|Treecko}} is a gecko that lives only in forests with {{t|Grass}}. The main antagonists were either [[Team Magma]] and/or [[Team Aqua]] who want to expand the land or sea respectively. Once they awaken one of the Legendary Pokémon {{p|Kyogre}} or {{p|Groudon}}, the world is flooded by rain or dried by drought. It's up to the player to set nature back on course by defeating their version's mascot or capturing it. Hoenn's people are far more attuned to nature than previous regions: [[Fortree City]] is built alongside Pokémon in the trees, while [[Pacifidlog Town]] is built on wooden rafts in the sea atop a {{p|Corsola}} colony, even though Corsola cannot be found there in the games. With {{m|Secret Power}}, a player can make a [[Secret Base]] out of trees, caves, or clumps of grass.

There are far more Pokémon that share relationships with other Pokémon in this generation of games, especially the Legendary Pokémon. The [[Legendary titans]] are an obvious example of this; however, the game mascots all share a relationship as the [[weather trio]]. {{p|Latios}} and {{p|Latias}} are both Eon Pokémon that must be chased around the region. Pokémon such as {{p|Lunatone}}, {{p|Illumise}}, {{p|Plusle}}, and {{p|Wailord}} are related to other Pokémon, namely {{p|Solrock}}, {{p|Volbeat}}, {{p|Minun}}, and {{p|Relicanth}}, in relationships ranging from explicit to loose symbiosis, to intense rivalry in the case of {{p|Zangoose}} and {{p|Seviper}}.

==Trivia==
* Generation III introduced the most Abilities to the series, with 77 (including {{a|Cacophony}}).
* Generation III was the first generation to:
**Include both a [[Mom (Hoenn)|mother]] and [[Norman|father]] for the main character and the rival.
**Introduce multiple [[Legendary trio]]s (the [[weather trio]] and the [[Legendary titans]]).
**Introduce multiple [[Mythical Pokémon]].
**Not introduce any new [[Eeveelution|evolutions]] for {{p|Eevee}}.
**Not allow the customization of a rival character's name.
**Have multiple paired versions, one pair of which are [[remake]]s.
**Give the Elite Four its own battle music, as opposed to them sharing the same battle music as the Gym Leaders in previous generations. However, FireRed, LeafGreen, HeartGold, SoulSilver, Diamond, Pearl and Platinum still do this, with the latter three's Elite Four battle music having a lower pitch by one semitone.
**Use wireless connectivity.
**Feature the word "Pokémon" in the logos of the Japanese titles, alongside "Pocket Monsters."
* Generation III is the only generation that:
**Introduced two [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]].
**Is unable to communicate with games from the previous generation.
* Generation III does not introduce any evolved forms of Pokémon from previous generations (a trait shared with [[Generation V]]), with the only cross-generational relatives being [[baby Pokémon]] {{p|Azurill}} and {{p|Wynaut}}.
* Generation III introduced the most Pokémon [[List of Pokémon that are not part of an evolutionary line|that are unable to evolve]], with a total of 21 at the time.
* Generation III has the largest number of total games, with fifteen. It is tied with [[Generation IV]] for the largest number of [[core series]] games, with five each.
* Starting with Generation III, [[Ken Sugimori]]'s art style shows noticeable differences from that of [[Generation I]] and {{gen|II}}. This can be seen when comparing the artwork for {{ga|Red}}, {{ga|Ethan}}, and {{cat|Generation I Pokémon|Generation I}} and {{cat|Generation II Pokémon|II}} Pokémon from their original games to that of those games' remakes.
* Most of the Generation III Pokémon that are not in the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] have only one sprite in the [[Generation IV]] games. {{cat|Generation IV Pokémon}} received sprite updates in {{game|Platinum}}, while Generation I and II Pokémon received updates in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
* Almost all the backsprites of non-Generation III Pokémon are revamps of the backsprites in the [[Generation II]] games.
* Generation III is the longest generation in North America, lasting slightly over four years.
* Generation III is the only generation which was longer in the West than in Japan.

Friendship

2016-10-19T23:00:28Z

PokeWizardCali: /* Generation VI */

{{redirect|Happiness|the "Happiness Pokémon" category|Blissey (Pokémon)}}
{{spading|comment=Still needs research overall, especially regarding values.}}
'''Friendship''' (Japanese: '''なつき{{tt|度|ど}}''' ''degree of emotional attachment''), also referred to as '''tame''' in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]] and '''friendliness''' in [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], as well as commonly referred to by fans as '''happiness''', is a measurement of how much a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} is attached to its {{pkmn|Trainer}} and enjoys being in their care.

It affects the [[evolution]] of {{cat|Pokémon that evolve by friendship|certain Pokémon}}, the power of {{m|Return}} and {{m|Frustration}}, and the availability of a few in-game [[item]]s and [[Ribbon]]s. Certain events increase a Pokémon's friendship (gaining a [[level]], walking a certain amount of steps) or decrease it ([[fainting]], using [[herbal medicine]]).

Friendship was introduced in {{game|Yellow}} for the {{player}}'s {{ga|Red's Pikachu|starter Pikachu}} only, and expanded to cover all Pokémon in [[Generation II]].

==In the core series games==
===Generation I===
[[File:PikachuY-Happy.png|thumb|right|{{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}} with high friendship]]
A prototype of the friendship system used by future games was introduced in {{game|Yellow}}, the last [[core series]] game of [[Generation I]]. Like the later system, its value ranged between 0 and 255, inclusive, but this value was only applied to the {{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}} the {{player}} {{pkmn2|starter|started with}} or a Pikachu with the same OT and Trainer ID as the player (i.e. any Pikachu that follows the player).

Pikachu starts with a base friendship of 90. This is written to the memory as soon as the player begins a new game, even before they obtain his/her Pikachu.

Unlike every game released afterwards (save for {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}), since Pikachu follows the player around in the overworld, the player can interact with it at any time. Pikachu will then indicate its friendship in a small window that appears. At maximum friendship, Pikachu will jump up and down before the window is triggered. There are five special Pikachu emotes ('wink', 'fishing', 'puzzled', 'refusal' and 'thunder') that will appear when certain events are met; they are not affected by friendship. For example, interacting with Pikachu immediately after fishing will result in the fishing emote, where Pikachu will show its head after hiding it in a bucket.

Like in every [[generation]] after {{gen|II}}, Pikachu's friendship will rise when it gains a [[level]] or when its {{pkmn|Trainer}} uses a {{DL|Potion||healing item}} on it, and it will drop if it [[Fainting|faints]], but its friendship also drops if it is deposited in the [[Pokémon Storage System]], a feature not used in future games. [[Trade|Trading]] it to another game will also affect its friendship.

Friendship is not recorded for any other Pokémon in Generation I, and the friendship of Pikachu does not affect the gameplay significantly: the only real effect it has is whether or not {{DL|Melanie|In the games|a girl}} will give {{p|Bulbasaur}} away in [[Cerulean City]], which she will only do if Pikachu's friendship has a value of 147 or higher.

Items other than [[TM]]s and [[HM]]s will cause {{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}}'s friendship to increase even if they do not have any effect and are not consumed. For example, attempting to use a Potion when Pikachu has full HP or is fainted will still increase its friendship. This was fixed in Generation II.

Another likely glitch is the fact that Full Heal does not increase Pikachu's friendship, but other status condition healing items do.

===Generation II===
In [[Generation II]], the friendship system was overhauled and expanded, building on the system used in {{game|Yellow}} by tracking the friendship of every {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} owned by the {{pkmn|Trainer}}. Like before, it is a single byte with a value between 0 and 255.

Friendship is set when a Pokémon is brought under a Trainer's control; i.e., it has a value of 70 when a Pokémon is captured from the {{pkmn2|wild}}, and reset to 70 when a Pokémon is traded from another game. When a Pokémon is hatched from an {{pkmn|Egg}}, its value is set to 120. If a Pokémon is captured in a {{ball|Friend}}, rather than any other kind of [[Poké Ball]], its friendship is set to a value of 200 instead.

Another mechanic of friendship introduced in Generation II is that it affects the [[evolution]] of {{cat|Pokémon that evolve by friendship|certain Pokémon}}, which has continued until the present as most [[generation]]s introduce new Pokémon which evolve through friendship. Friendship-based evolutions occur when a Pokémon's friendship has a value of 220 or higher.

Its value for a specific Pokémon can be checked using the {{DL|Goldenrod City|friendship checker}} in [[Goldenrod City]].

===Generation III===
{{incomplete|section|The number of steps and the probability needs further research.}}
Friendship in [[Generation III]] works similarly to [[Generation II]] but with two additional mechanics to boost it. If a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} is caught in a {{ball|Luxury}} or is holding a {{DL|Out-of-battle effect item|Soothe Bell}}, all friendship-raising events will increase the Pokémon's friendship value by an extra point; friendship-lowering events are not affected. These effects stack on each other, meaning a Pokémon in a Luxury Ball holding a Soothe Bell increases the value by two points.

Pokémon now have a [[List of Pokémon by base friendship|base friendship]] per species, although most {{pkmn2|caught|catchable Pokémon}} have the standard value of 70 as their starting [[level]].

In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, the {{player}} can verify the friendship value of his/her {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} through the scene which appears after the player uses an [[item]] on the Pokémon. The Pokémon will either move towards the screen or not move at all. If the Pokémon does not move, then its friendship value is standard. The friendship value of the Pokémon can be checked by looking at how near the Pokémon goes to the player. The nearer the Pokémon moves towards the screen, the higher its friendship value and the more it is attached to its {{pkmn|Trainer}}. After grooming a Pokémon, {{Daisy}} will also tell the player how friendly the Pokémon in the first slot of their [[party]] is towards them.

===Generation IV===
{{incomplete|section|The number of steps and the probability needs further research.}}
[[File:Friendship Checker App.png|thumb|200px|right|The [[Pokétch]]'s Friendship Checker app with a {{p|Drifblim}} at maximum friendship.]]
The friendship system remains essentially similar to [[Generation III]], though the conditions are altered slightly. The {{ball|Luxury}} now causes a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} to gain a separate boost in friendship when they [[level]] up and while walking compared to Pokémon in other [[Poké Ball]]s.

In {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, [[Dr. Footstep]], the sole resident of the Footstep House on {{rt|213|Sinnoh}}, will give a Pokémon with maximum friendship a [[Ribbon]].

In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the {{player}} can gauge their Pokémon's friendship based on the phrase that appears when they are interacted with outside of their Poké Ball. {{Daisy}} also makes a return and visiting her in [[Pallet Town]] will let her groom one of the player's Pokémon between 15:00 and 16:00 every day, increasing its friendship. The [[haircut brothers]] will also boost a Pokémon's friendship and they can be visited on any {{DL|Days of the week||day of the week}} besides {{DL|Days of the week|Monday}}.

In the table below, the first and second values separated by slashes show the changes for most Poké Balls and {{ball|Luxury}}s, respectively. Note that holding a {{DL|Out-of-battle effect item|Soothe Bell}} will apply a rounded-down multiplier of 1.5 to only '''positive''' changes and that use of Luxury Balls will ''not'' reduce the effects of negative changes.

===Generation V===
The friendship system is very similar to [[Generation IV]]. As far as it has been tested, friendship conditions and related [[item]]s are much the same, with the main differences being in how [[Non-player character|NPC]]s will rate and measure friendship.

A woman in [[Nacrene City]] and another woman in the {{ci|Icirrus}} [[Pokémon Fan Club]] will rate the friendship of the {{player}}'s {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, and Bianca can rate friendship in {{game|Black and White|s 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2}} if called on the [[Xtransceiver]].

Another woman in [[Castelia City]] will massage one of the player's Pokémon per day, raising its friendship. In {{game|Black and White|s}}, she is located on {{DL|Castelia City|Castelia Street}}, in the building across the street from the Game Freak headquarters. In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, she is located at the {{DL|Castelia City|Medal Office}} across from the [[Castelia Gym]].

The friendship statistics appear to have not changed much since Generation IV. Note that holding a {{DL|Out-of-battle effect item|Soothe Bell}} will still apply a rounded-down multiplier of 1.5 to only '''positive''' changes and that use of {{ball|Luxury}}s will ''not'' reduce the effects of negative changes.

If the Pokémon's friendship is increased at the location of where it was met, an extra +1 friendship is added to the boost.

===Generation VI===
{{incomplete|section|Check if PokéBlocks add friendship. Check which are affected by Luxury Ball; fill in remaining Juice Shoppe values; determine/verify probabilities for walking and massages; figure out what Befriending Power does to all of these}}
In Generation VI, friendship is not to be confused with [[Pokémon-Amie]]'s affection. Affection is an entirely separate stat having no bearing on friendship, and no actions taken in Pokémon-Amie will affect friendship in any way. Also, the Friendship stat is unrelated to the "bond" theme that comes up throughout the dialogue in these games concerning a trainer's ability to perform Mega Evolution.

Unlike in previous generations where a Pokémon's friendship was reset to 70 when traded or transferred to another game, in Generation VI it is reset to the [[List of Pokémon by base friendship|base friendship]] for its species. Friendship is also stored in a Pokémon's [[Memory Girl|memories]] for both the [[Original Trainer]] and current handler, and if the Pokémon is returned to its Original Trainer, its friendship is reset to what it was the last time it was in the Original Trainer's possession.

If a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} is caught in a {{ball|Luxury}}, some friendship-raising events will increase the Pokémon's friendship value by an extra point. If the Pokémon's friendship is increased at the location of where it was met, an extra +1 friendship is added to the boost. These effects stack on each other, meaning a Pokémon in a Luxury Ball increasing its friendship at the location of where it was met may increase the value with two extra points.

The friendship statistics appear to have not changed much since Generation V. In the table below, the first and second values separated by slashes show the changes for most Poké Balls and {{ball|Luxury}}s, respectively. Note that holding a [[Soothe Bell]] will still apply a rounded-down multiplier of 1.5 after applying the extra bonus from location and [[Luxury Ball]], if applicable.

The [[Super Training#Training Bags|Soothing Bag]] boost is not affected by location, being inside of a [[Luxury Ball]] or holding a [[Soothe Bell]].

=====Stadium 2=====
While there is no [[Non-player character|NPC]] that rates friendship, when viewing a table with {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, its value is listed there (along other elements such as [[type]], [[Trainer ID number]] or [[item]]), in levels. Pokémon data read from a [[Generation I]] game will always be rated as ''Not quite'', even for {{ga|Red's Pikachu}} in {{game|Yellow}}, which does have its friendship tracked.

=====XD: Gale of Darkness=====
The friendship rater is located inside the [[Krabby Club]] in [[Gateon Port]]. He is upstairs, straight to the rear of the club (not the ones backstage) and standing near the bartender. He looks like a boat captain and is possibly the same man that gives the {{player}} the [[item]] to evolve their {{p|Eevee}} at the beginning of the game. He is not there at that point but is present after starting the events in [[Pyrite Town]].

===Misconceptions===
Although frequently reported to the contrary, the following factors do ''not'' affect friendship (note that these are focused on the system that has been in place since [[Generation II]]):
* Depositing a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in the [[Pokémon Storage System]]
* Healing a Pokémon with low {{stat|HP}} or with a [[status condition]]
* Giving a Pokémon an [[Held item|item to hold]] (except the Soothe Bell)
* [[Evolution|Evolving]] a Pokémon, regardless of method ([[level]] up, [[held item]], or [[evolutionary stone]], with the exception of [[Methods of evolution#evolution via trading|trade evolutions]], which reset the Pokémon's friendship)
* Using a Pokémon in {{pkmn|battle}}
* Winning battles with a Pokémon
* Letting a Pokémon's HP fall to critical status
* Letting the {{player}}'s Pokémon get a status condition like {{status|paralysis}}
* Walking when the player's Pokémon has a status condition
* Affection in [[Pokémon-Amie]]

==In spin-off games==
===Ranger: Shadows of Almia===
[[File:Happy Mood SoA.png|frame|Two {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in a ''Happy Mood'']]
Friendship also has an effect in the second game of the [[Pokémon Ranger]] series. [[Partner Pokémon]] can have the condition of ''Fine'', ''Happy'', or ''Very Happy''. When it is in a ''Happy Mood'', black musical notes appear to come out of it. Multicolored musical notes come out when it is ''Very Happy''. This may happen whether or not it is with the {{player}}. This state of mind increases the speed the Partner Gauge fills up due to more Partner Energy being provided.
