'''Pikachu''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ピカチュウ''' ''Pikachu'') is an {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon. It is the [[starter Pokémon]] one receives at the beginning of {{game|Yellow}}, and is popularly known as the mascot of the [[Pokémon]] franchise.

Pikachu evolves with exposure to a [[Thunderstone]] into {{p|Raichu}}. It evolves from {{p|Pichu}} when it grows a level and its [[happiness]] is 220 or above.

Pikachu is the [[version mascot]] of {{game|Yellow}}, appearing on the boxart.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
A Pikachu is short, chubby and a ground-dwelling rodent notable for its Electric abilities. Pikachu have short, yellow fur with brown stripes on its back, black-tipped ears, along with an unusually shaped tail, resembling a lightning bolt. Besides its evolution and pre-evolution, it may be related to {{p|Plusle}}, {{p|Minun}} and {{p|Pachirisu}}, due to notable physical similarities.

Pikachu are known to have acute senses of hearing, thanks to its large ears. Most domestic Pikachu are very intelligent, understanding and interpreting human speech at levels far surpassing those of any pet dog.

In [[DP074]], when [[Ash's Pikachu]] was injured, it was shown to have a heart rate of 156.

====Gender differences====
A female Pikachu has a small "dent" at the end of its tail, causing it to resemble a heart.

===Special abilities===
Exclusive to the Pikachu's subspecies is the ability to release electric discharges of varying intensity, at will, through electric sacs in its cheeks. This electric energy can be manipulated into a variety of [[Moves|techniques]] which are mostly used in {{pkmn|battle}} but which can be used to roast [[berries]] as well.

As Pikachu build up energy in their electricity glands, it is often needed to discharge, as to not result in a short, or worse, which can lead to physical {{status|Paralysis|Paralysis}}, or in severe cases death. Pikachu release the built-up energy through their tail, which acts as a grounding rod, to safely remove unneeded energy. A sure sign to tell if a location is inhabited by Pikachu is to look for patches of burnt grass, which is the result of the discharge. Through an inability to release a buildup of electricity, a Pikachu may develop a rare condition similar to the human flu. This illness is most often caused by strong nearby electro-magnetic forces, which severely impact the electric glands. If a Pikachu is introduced to a magnet, it will be attracted towards its cheeks, and display other common attributes of magnetism.

Pikachu and its evolution family, {{p|Pichu}} and {{p|Raichu}}, are the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that can learn {{m|Volt Tackle}}. In a few rare cases, Pikachu can learn to manipulate {{t|Water}} and, with the help of a surfboard, perform the move {{m|Surf}}. Other rare cases show that Pikachu can also learn, with the use of balloons, to perform the move {{m|Fly}}, removing its weakness to {{t|Ground}}.

===Behavior===
In the wild, Pikachu often travel in packs, and are rarely territorial. However, when threatened, a group can generate an intense electrical offensive, and the electro-magnetic forces exerted by the resulting field can even produce a short lived, localized thunderstorm. Pikachu can be harmful pests, eating and sometimes destroying telephone poles, wires, and other electronic equipment.

Despite this, it is a popular pet, and relatively easy to maintain, with little exercise necessary for its well being. However, it is important to discharge the electricity in its cheeks periodically.

As many know, pulling on a Pikachu's tail will result in a severe shock to the offender. Another defense of Pikachu's is the use of its nasty {{m|Bite}} which has been known to leave quite a mark.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Forest.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Forest Pokémon|Forest Pokémon]]]]
They are found mostly in forests, but possibly because of their attraction to their electricity or simply because they are not afraid of people, Pikachu commonly show up in civilized areas. They may even enter houses, presumably attracted by the electrical output generated by the dwellers' appliances. Pikachu are native only to the [[Kanto]] region, although they have been introduced to many other regions.

==Diet==
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Living in wooded areas, Pikachu often are found foraging for [[berries]]. Instead of climbing trees, they use small electrical shocks to release the berries from the tree, roasting them at the same time.

As pets, they can be fed a variety of processed food, available at many pet stores. Alternatively, like most Pokémon, Pikachu are tolerant to most "human" foods, and sometimes enjoy them more than the more nutritional food designed for their biology. In fact, Pikachu have been known to have a fondness of ketchup.

==In the anime==
[[Image:pikachu_thunderbolt.jpg|left|frame|[[Ash's Pikachu]] using {{m|Thunderbolt}}]][[Image:025-Pikachu.jpg|right|thumb|Pikachu from the anime]]
[[Ash Ketchum]] has a {{AP|Pikachu}} that he [[Starter Pokémon|obtained]] from [[Professor Oak]] in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'', the first episode of the Pokémon anime series. It has appeared in every non-special episode since. Pikachu has also appeared in every Pokémon movie.

[[James]] used a Pikachu in the Pokémon League Entrance Exam in ''[[EP056|The Ultimate Test]]'', but the Pikachu was defeated by the instructor's {{p|Graveler}}. James, after interfering with a battle {{Ash}} was having with the instructor, later tried to steal this Pikachu.

Another Pikachu nicknamed [[Puka]] was owned by a man named {{Ka|Victor}} on [[Seafoam Island]] in ''[[EP067|The Pi-Kahuna]]''. This blue-eyed Pikachu had the ability to sense tidal waves approaching.

[[Ritchie]] also has a Pikachu nicknamed [[Sparky]], who debuted in ''[[EP078|A Friend In Deed]]''. Sparky, unlike most Pikachu, has a tuft of fur on the top of its head.

A Pikachu has also been owned by [[Luana]]'s son, [[Travis]]. Luana mistook Ash for Travis when she saw Pikachu on Ash's shoulder.

Ash gets turned into a [[Ashachu|Pikachu]] in ''[[EP241|Hocus Pokémon]]'' by a Pokémon magician named {{Jo|Lily}}. He reverts to his human form at the beginning of [[EP242|the next episode]].

In ''[[AG086|Lights, Camerupt, Action]]'', [[Elijah]] used a Pikachu in one of his movies. This Pikachu helped {{p|Plusle}} and {{p|Minun}} on their mission to rescue Princess {{p|Kirlia}} from the evil {{p|Armaldo}}.

A Pikachu also had a part in ''[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters out of the Gate!]]''. He was kidnapped by a {{p|Skarmory}} and Team Go-Getters set out to rescue him as their first mission. Pikachu provided them with some items in the battle.

A Pikachu named Sugar belonging to the owners of a restaurant went missing prior to ''[[DP024|Cooking up a Great Story!]]''. This Pikachu evolved into a Raichu near the end of the episode.

A Pikachu belonging to an unnamed Aura Guardian appeared in ''[[DP056|The Keystone Pops!]]''.

==In the manga==
[[Electric Tale of Pikachu]] prominently features a Pikachu.

A {{PiPiPi|Pikachu}} is one of the main characters in [[Pokémon PiPiPi Adventure]].

A more mouse-like [[Isamu Akai's Pikachu|Pikachu]] that communicates through pantomime is one of [[Isamu Akai]]'s Pokémon in [[Pocket Monsters (manga)|Pocket Monsters]].

[[Satoshi (Zensho)|Satoshi]] has a Pikachu as one of the members of his team in [[Pokémon Zensho]]. It later evolves into a {{p|Raichu}}.

[[Shuu]]'s first Pokémon was a Pikachu he found abandoned in the forest in [[Pokémon Get da ze!]].

Ash's Pikachu was the main character in the short-lived [[Pokémon Newspaper Strip]].

A story called "Akari and Pikachu's Birthday" is featured in the final volume of [[How I Became a Pokémon Card]].

In [[Golden Boys]], [[Gold (Golden Boys)|Gold]] was in possession of a Pikachu, which ended up being [[Eusine]]'s.

A Pikachu makes a cameo in [[Pocket Monsters Emerald: Challenge!! Battle Frontier]] during one of the battles. Also, a photo album owned by [[Anabel]] has a Pikachu on the cover.

===Pokémon Special===
'''Pokédex entry''': When several of these Pokémon gather, their electricity could build up and cause lightning storms. Forest dwellers, they are few in number and exceptionally rare. The pouches in their cheeks discharge electricity at their opponents. The Pikachu are believed to be highly intelligent.

Both {{Special|Red}} and {{Special|Yellow}} have Pika and Chu Chu, respectively. Pika often used to shock Red repeatedly. However, Pika becomes one of Red's most valued Pokémon.

Pikachu debuted in its own round in the [[Red, Green & Blue chapter (Special)|Red, Green & Blue]] chapter, ''[[PS004|Wanted: Pikachu!]]''. Here, Pika is captured by Red.

In the ninth Volume, Yellow is seen to have a new addition to her team: a Pikachu she had found injured in the [[Viridian Forest]] and nursed back to health. When Pika is left behind by Red on his trip to Mt. Silver, Pika joins Yellow and Chuchu on their trip to Johto.

Pika and Chuchu share a loving relationship, one that is so strong that even [[Jasmine]] noticed, prompting her to hand Yellow a slip with the Pokémon Daycare's address on it. In Volume 13, after Yellow and Wilton are brought to the Daycare after being shipwrecked, Yellow finds that Pika and Chuchu now have an egg shortly after they were "put together". The egg eventually hatches into {{Special|Gold}}'s Pichu.

Wild Pikachu also appeared in the RS and DP sagas.

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

In the TCG, Pikachu somehow manages to find its way into many of the expansions, causing there to be at least 30 known Pokémon cards featuring Pikachu. There are also various trainer cards with Pikachu in the card's artwork too, including the very sought-after tournament promos such as [[No.1 Trainer (Tournament promo)|No.1 Trainer]].

The first Pikachu that appeared in the TCG was {{TCG ID|Base Set|Pikachu|58}} in the {{TCG|Base Set}} (which was reprinted in {{TCG|Base Set 2}} and in {{TCG|POP Series 2}} with different artwork). It was followed in {{TCG|Jungle|the next set}} by another {{TCG ID|Jungle|Pikachu|60}} (which was also reprinted in the {{TCG|Legendary Collection}}). The third Pikachu card released was the first-ever English {{TCG|Wizards Black Star Promos|promo card}}, {{TCG ID|Wizards Promo|Pikachu|1}}. The original Base Set Pikachu was also released as a special promotional card at {{wp|E3}}.

In the early days of the TCG, several notable errors were made regarding the Pikachu cards. The Base Set Pikachu was released with altered artwork at first, depicting it with red cheeks, instead of the original yellow. While this matched [[Ken Sugimori]]'s artwork, the yellow color on its cheeks was intentional by the artist, who depicted Pikachu using {{m|ThunderShock}}. This error appeared in both the E3 promotional version and the normal Base Set release. A second error was made in the production of Jungle set booster packs, which, instead of the Jungle set's Pikachu, contained, at times, first edition versions of the Pikachu that was released as a promo card.

==In the TFG==
One Pikachu figure has been released.

* {{TFG|Next Quest}}: {{TFG ID|Next Quest|Pikachu|18}}

==Other appearances==
Pikachu has the honor of being one of the mascots of the Smash Bros. series, alongside Mario, Link and Kirby.

===[[Super Smash Bros.]]===
Pikachu is a playable character and the only Pokémon that is playable from the start of the game. It is in the fifth box of the second row. Its main stage is [[Saffron City]].

In the hands of a skilled player, Pikachu is not to be taken lightly. Alongside electrical attacks, it has very good aerial attacks and superb recovery. Because of this, top-level SSB players have placed Pikachu at the top of their list, theoretically making it the best character in the game.

===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
Pikachu is a playable character and the only Pokémon that is playable from the start of the game. It is initially placed to the right of Mario but moves to the bottom row after Luigi is unlocked. Its main stage is [[Pokémon Stadium (stage)|Kanto: Pokémon Stadium]].

While Pikachu's play style remained the same, it was powered down in the sequel. The tier lists for Melee place Pikachu in either the Middle or Low tier.

[[Image:Pikachu in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.jpg|250px|right|thumb|Pikachu using Thunder Jolt in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]].]]
====Trophy information====
=====Classic Mode=====
It's safe to say that Pikachu is the most famous and popular of all Pokémon. It has electric pouches in both cheeks; when in danger, it shoots electricity at its enemies. Although Pikachu can evolve into Raichu by exposure to a Thunderstone, many trainers like Pikachu so much that they don't let it evolve.

=====Adventure Mode=====
While its electrical attacks, such as Thunder and Thunder Jolt, are powerful, Pikachu is at its best speeding around the fray and waiting for its chance to strike. You can control the path of Pikachu's two-directional Quick Attack, allowing you to jump twice. Hold down the B Button to charge up Skull Bash.

=====All-Star Mode=====
The angle of the Control Stick controls the direction of Pikachu's Quick Attack. Pikachu will move blindingly fast, and it will also cause damage to any character it runs into. Move the Control Stick during Quick Attack and Pikachu will move in up to two directions. Be sure to check out the ceilings on the level when you use Thunder.

===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
Pikachu is a returning playable character to the franchise. Its Final Smash move is {{m|Volt Tackle}}.

====Subspace Emissary====
Pikachu is first seen in the "Research Facility" stage where it is being used to power a generator. Responding to its shrieks of pain, {{wp|Samus Aran|Zero Suit Samus}} saves it by destroying the generator. The two then face a group of {{wp|R.O.B}} Sentries. Pikachu then joins Samus to search for her stolen power suit. The suit is soon recovered and then are soon confronted by {{wp|Metroid (series)#Recurring characters|Ridley}}. He grabs Samus and begins dragging her across the walls. It is now that Pikachu returns the favor as it zaps Ridley with a powerful Thunder attack.

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

*'''[[wp:Solid Snake|Solid Snake]]:''' ''"What? The [[List of Pokémon by color#Yellow|yellow thing]]?"''
*'''Mei Ling:''' ''"That's Pikachu. It's a [[List of Pokémon by National Dex number|Pokémon]]. They're popular all over the {{pkmn|world}}, you know. And it may look cute, but be careful. It can store large amounts of {{t|electric}}ity in those adorable little cheeks. It'll try to pepper you with [[Thunder Jolt|electric shocks]]."''
*'''Solid Snake:''' ''"Couldn't be much worse than [[wp:List of recurring Metal Gear characters#Revolver Ocelot (Liquid Ocelot)|Ocelot's]] old torture device..."''
*'''Mei Ling:''' ''"Oh, and, Snake?"''
*'''Solid Snake:''' ''"What?"''
*'''Mei Ling:''' ''"I was wondering, could you maybe try and [[Captured Pokémon|catch Pikachu]] [[Trade|for me]]? Pleeeeease?"''
*'''Solid Snake:''' ''"Give me a break! What do I look like, a [[Pokémon Trainer]]?"''
*'''Mei Ling:''' ''"Fine... Sorry I asked."''

====Trophy information====
''"A [[Species|Mouse Pokémon]]. Its lightning-bolt tail and round cheeks are its trademarks. When danger draws near, it uses tiny electric pouches within its cheeks to discharge electricity. When it's really fired up, it unleashes thunderbolts on its rivals. It's said to recharge when it's {{status|Sleep|sleeping}}. It evolves into {{p|Raichu}}."''

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===

====Smash Bros.-only moves====
'''Thunder Jolt''' (Japanese: '''でんげき''' ''Electric Attack'') is {{p|Pikachu}}'s Standard Special Move in all three ''Smash Bros.'' games. When used, Pikachu will release a small, blue bolt that slowly jumps across the platform. It can also turn around at some corners.

When used in midair, Pikachu will instead make a white ball that will travel in a downward diagonal line until it reaches a platform. In ''Brawl'', there is a purple sphere around the white ball.

==Trivia==
*Coincidentially, both Pikachu and Meowth's shiny forms are orange.
* Pikachu's tail appears to be backwards in its [[Generation II]] back sprites, with the end of the tail pointing upwards instead of behind it.
* The "secret" move for Pikachu's evolution line, {{m|Volt Tackle}}, is actually based off of (and in the Japanese version, named after) {{wp|Pulseman}}'s signature move, Volteccer. To get this move, a {{p|Pichu}} must be bred from a parent Pikachu or {{p|Raichu}} holding a [[Light Ball]], though this can only happen in {{game|Emerald}}, [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Versions|Diamond, or Pearl]].
** Additionally, a Pikachu knowing Surf and Volt Tackle can be obtained from [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]] by defeating [[Stargazer Colosseum]] for the first time.
*** A Surfing Pikachu can also be won through the use of Pokémon Stadium. Players must beat Prime Cup Master Ball R-2 using a team containing a Pikachu from the player's game pack. The Pikachu must be used in every battle, and no continues may be used.
* Pikachu's number in the National Dex (25) happens to be the reversed version of {{p|Meowth}}'s (52). It is unknown whether or not this was intentional, however, in the anime, [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Team Rocket's Meowth]] and [[Ash's Pikachu]] are rivals and also as Cat and Mouse Pokémon.
* Pikachu is the smallest and lightest [[version mascot]], likely owing to the fact that it is not fully-evolved nor legendary, unlike the rest.
* In the games, Pikachu is the first Pokémon to have its [[cry]] changed-- to that of its anime counterpart. This only happened in {{v2|Yellow}}. [[Junichi Masuda]] details the modification of [[Ikue Ohtani]]'s voice to a sound capable of being made by the low-tech [[Game Boy]] in his [http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir_english/?p=144 Director's Column].
* Pikachu assumes a pose that is identical to the pose of the Pikachu on the box art of {{game|Yellow}} during its battle animation in Diamond and Pearl.
* Pikachu is in all six regional [[Pokédex]]es, though it is only native to Kanto out of the four main series regions. It is imported from Kanto to Hoenn's Safari Zone and Mr. Backlot's house in Sinnoh.
* Pikachu in Pokémon Yellow was the first Pokémon to naturally learn a move taught by a Gym Leader's TM ([[Lt. Surge]]'s {{TM|24|Thunderbolt}}) in its introductory generation and the only one until Generation III.
* Since {{game|Yellow}}, Pikachu has always learned {{m|Thunderbolt}} at level 26. Before, in {{3v2|Red|Green|Blue}}, it learned {{m|Swift}}.
* Pikachu is the first {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon in [[National Dex]] order.
* Pikachu is one of fourteen Pokémon that one can collect [[Meister|foreign Pokédex entries]] for.
* Pikachu and {{p|Raichu}} share the same [[species]] name with {{p|Rattata}}, {{p|Raticate}}, {{p|Sandshrew}}, and {{p|Sandslash}}. They are all known as Mouse Pokémon, though Rattata and Raticate have also been called Rat Pokémon.
* On {{ga|Red}}'s final team in [[Mt. Silver]] at the end of the [[Generation II]] games, Pikachu is the highest leveled Pokémon to be faced in any Pokémon game, excluding the {{pkmn|Stadium}}/{{pkmn|Colosseum}}/{{pkmn|Battle Revolution}} series and the [[Battle Tower]]/[[Battle Frontier|Frontier]], at level 81. This places it one level higher than the wild {{p|Arceus}} that appears at the [[Hall of Origin]].
* In the Series 11, Episode 1 (June 22nd, 2008) episode of the British automotive television show, {{wp|Top Gear}}, {{wp|Richard Hammond}} said, after showing viewers a picture of {{wp|Tata Motors}} super budget sedan, the {{wp|Tata Nano}} in yellow, suggested that Tata Motors based the car off of Pikachu, complete with an accompanying picture. However, it was clearly done for humor.
* Pikachu was not the original [[Pokémon]] mascot. It was supposed to be {{p|Clefairy}}, but this was changed because of the popularity of [[Ash's Pikachu]].
* Pikachu is the only Pokémon included in the [[Pokémon Stadium (Japanese)|original Pokémon Stadium]] that was {{p2|Raichu|capable of evolving further}} when the game was released. Strangely, Raichu was excluded from said game.
===Origin===
Pikachu has physical aspects resembling several species of {{wp|rodent}}s, such as mice and squirrels.

====Name origin====
Pikachu is a combination of ぴかぴか ''pikapika'' which is Japanese onomatopoeia for sparkle and ちゅうちゅう ''chūchū'' which is the sound of squeaking. It may be named after the Pika, a lagomorph, but this is less likely.

Dawn's Pachirisu

'''Dawn's Pachirisu''' (Japanese: '''ヒカリのパチリス''' ''Hikari's Pachirisu'') was the third [[Pokémon]] [[captured Pokémon|caught]] by {{an|Dawn}} in her journey through [[Sinnoh]]. It was captured in ''[[DP019|Twice Smitten, Once Shy]]''. Its voice actress in both English and Japanese is 西村ちなみ ''[[Chinami Nishimura]]''.

==History==
Pachirisu has a very hyperactive personality. It loves to have fun with Dawn and her other Pokémon. It also tends to give Dawn a bad hair day by using {{m|Discharge}}. Dawn felt that she had failed Pachirisu as a {{pkmn|Trainer}} because of its behavior and temporarily released it. A while later she realized that she made a mistake and went back to get it only to find that [[Jessie]] already had set her sights on the electric squirrel. However it managed to defeat [[Team Rocket]] and Dawn recaptured it.

Pachirisu seems to be a bit of a con artist. For a moment it appeared to want to join Jessie and left with her. However this was only to get the spray bottle from her that had the formula in it that would release Dawn and the others from Team Rocket's sticky trap. This also shows that Pachirisu is a lot smarter than it seems.

==Moves used==
* {{m|Spark}}
* {{m|Sweet Kiss}}
* {{m|Quick Attack}}
* {{m|Discharge}}

==Trivia==
*Dawn's capture of Pachirisu marks the first time a main character has ever caught an {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon, and it is the first Electric-type owned by a main character besides {{AP|Pikachu}}.
*For [[DP021]], [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Dawn's Pachirisu. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about it: パチリスが　おめめさめたよ　パッチリす
[[Image:Pachirisu-anime.jpg|right|thumb|220px|Pachirisu getting ready for battle.]]
*In the [[dub]] of ''[[DP039|Steamboat Willies!]]'' it is revealed that Pachirisu is the youngest of Dawn's Pokémon, as well as second youngest of all the Pokémon belonging to {{Ash}} and [[Ash's friends|company]], second only to {{TP|Brock|Happiny}}, who was just hatched [[DP038|an episode earlier]].
*Pachirisu is currently Dawn's only Pokémon whose voice is not changed in the dub. Buizel also kept his Japanese voice, but Dawn no longer owns him.
*The pattern on Pachirisu's head indicates it is possibly [[Gender|male]]. However, it was seen wearing a {{wp|cheerleading}} outfit along with Dawn's {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} and {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}} in ''[[DP061|Team Shocker!]]'', indicating it could be female. Because of this, it is difficult to determine Pachirisu's gender.
*Pachirisu seems to be almost a parallel to [[May's Skitty]].
#Both were the third Pokémon obtained by their trainer.
#Jessie had her heart set on catching them and using them for contest purposes.
#Both share a similar attitude and habits. These would include chasing their tails, having a lot of energy, and running away from their trainers.
#Both use their Japanese voice actresses in both dubs.

'''Pop Goes The Sneasel!''' (Japanese: '''ニューラとせいなるほのお！''' ''{{tt|Nyula|Sneasel}} and the Sacred Flame!'') is episode 265 of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on September 12, 2002 and in the United States on September 16, 2003.

The torch that will light the flame for the [[Silver Conference]] is due to set off but a territorial {{p|Sneasel}} is preventing the ceremony from starting. [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]] and [[Harrison (Johto League)|Harrison]], another trainer who appears as the story is being explained, promise to get to the flame. Meanwhile, [[Jessie]] decides that the Sneasel should replace [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]].
{{spoilers}}

==Synopsis==
After returning {{p|Larvitar}}, [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]] and the gang head toward Silver Mountain. Along the way, they notice people gathered at a large closed gate. When they get there, Ash asks a bystander what's going on. The person says that there's some commotion going on the other side. The bad thing is though, this gate leads to Silver Mountain, so everyone's stuck! The gate opens a tad and one of the attendants explains the current situation. While this is happening, [[Misty's Togepi|Togepi]], who was on the ground, walks towards the gate. [[Ash's Pikachu|Pikachu]] follows after Togepi and soon the attendant notices that they are inside the gate! The gang runs after them.

Pikachu and Togepi are reunited with their trainers, and they apologize to the guard. But the attendant says it's probably perfect timing anyway, since he didn't know how else to say this. Before he can finish, two trainers run down a set of stone steps and it looks like they were in a battle. One of them yells at the attendant. Ash asks what was that all about, then attendant finally says that nobody's been able to get to the Sacred Fire. Ash, as usual, asks about that. Soon another trainer steps in to tell about that.

But before the stranger could tell the story, the gang breaks that off with a "Who are you?". The trainer is [[Harrison]] from [[Littleroot Town]] in [[Hoenn]]. [[Brock]] says he's heard of Hoenn, which is supposed around here. Harrison starts to explain that long ago, this area was one major place for battles and wars. People ravaged the place so badly that the Pokémon suffered because of it and the vegetation was wiped out. Soon {{p|Ho-Oh}} used its power to "burn" the area back to life. Eventually the forest that stands now was restored. But a bit of a tree was left burning for the longest of times. And they placed the fire in a shrine that's supposed to be around here.

The attendant adds that recently there have been reports of a {{p|Sneasel}}, a {{p|Machop}}, and a {{p|Machoke}} preventing people from getting near. Every trainer who volunteered to try to stop the offending Pokémon ended up coming back with hurt Pokémon, broken bones, and other serious injuries. The attendant is really worried, because without the Sacred Fire, the ceremony for the Silver Tournament can't start, and thus, no tournament this year.

Ash says he'll make sure he can get the Sacred Fire secure from the Sneasel, mainly because he wants to go compete. Harrison, on the other hand, wants the Sneasel and will help Ash out if he can get his hands on it. Ash asks where is the shrine and the attendant points the way: the same stone steps. Everyone soon goes up the stairs.

Somewhere else in the forest, [[Jessie]] and [[James]] are searching for the Sacred Fire. They plan to get it and sell it off, and finally they find the shrine, but as soon as they run, they get clotheslined by a Machoke. All but [[Team Rocket's Meowth|Meowth]] are decked, Meowth looked around and saw that there was a Machoke and a Machop, followed by a Sneasel. Jessie and James get back up and see the Sneasel and decide to capture it as well.

Jessie sends out [[Jessie's Arbok|Arbok]] to try to take care of the cat. She commands Arbok to use {{m|Slam}}, but Sneasel simply jumps out of the way and uses {{m|Slash}} on Arbok. Meowth makes a snobby comment but Jessie throws him to battle to prove what he said. Meowth tries to use {{m|Scratch}} on Sneasel, but Sneasel dodges the attack and gives Meowth a swipe, which sends the cat Pokémon crashing into Jessie and James and sending them all clear across the path.

The gang is almost there, and when they almost reach the top, Ash runs towards the shrine. However, he almost gets clotheslined as well, but manages to avoid it. He almost falls backwards down the stairs, but everyone else grabs him. When everyone reaches the top, they find out it's the Machop and the Machoke that the attendant was talking about. They decide to distract the Pokémon and then run from them since our heroes don't want to waste time.

Misty sends out [[Misty's Corsola|Corsola]] and Harrison uses his [[Harrison's Houndoom|Houndoom]] to take down the fighting duo. They successfully hold them back with {{m|Spike Cannon}} and {{m|Flamethrower}}. While this is happening, Ash goes up to the shrine and opens the doors, but almost gets swiped by the Sneasel. Ash sends out [[Ash's Totodile|Totodile]] to take the Sneasel on. Ash tells Totodile to use {{m|Water Gun}}, but tells Totodile not to hit the Sacred Fire, and Totodile attacks Sneasel. Sneasel strikes back with Slash and knocks Totodile down, but not out. Finally the Sneasel gvies Totodile a {{m|Shadow Ball}} that throws Totodile right into Ash! Both get sent right back down the hill, but fortunately they collide into a tree.

As for the Rockets, Jessie and James get a little doubtful about Meowth. Jessie pulls James over for a private talk about this. Jessie says that they should get the Sneasel, since it's more powerful than Meowth but no less different, as it's still a cat. Meowth sneaks up on the conversation and listens to the whole plot to ditch Meowth for that Sneasel. James is a little hesitant, since he can't picture someone replacing Meowth. Meowth hurries back before they're finished and soon Jessie and James goes back. Jessie tries to cover up their plot with some excuse and Meowth pretends to be happy about it. James on the other hand seems a little hesitant.

The gang plans out some tactics and soon goes at the Sacred Fire again. This time they encounter the fighters who are waiting. Ash sends out [[Ash's Phanpy|Phanpy]] and Harrison uses Houndoom. Phanpy takes the Machop down with a {{m|Tackle}} and Houndoom hits Machoke with {{m|Take Down}}. This knocks the fighters back and when they try to run to their opponents, Houndoom and Phanpy lift them up and send them down the hill. The duo lands on the bottom where the attendant is standing, looks like they could do something else now.

They find the Sneasel, but soon the Rocket's in a Sneasel balloon float above. Everything's almost the same, except Meowth imitating Sneasel. Everyone but Ash knows that it's just Meowth in a Sneasel costume. So the Rockets put their plan into effect. Meowth brings over a present box to the Sneasel. Jessie tells the plan: Meowth gives the box which is really a smoke bomb, Jessie and James pick up Sneasel, and they run off. As for Meowth, he tells the Sneasel what's really going on. The Sneasel doesn't bite and slashes Meowth, the smoke bomb coming out of the present anyway. The bomb explodes and the Rocket's make their move and grab Sneasel. They run off and laugh in their success, but when they check on Sneasel, it's really Meowth! Meowth gives both Jessie and James a good slashing.

The smoke clears and the gang is surprised to see that Sneasel is still there. With no time to waste, Harrison takes the chance and initiates battle. He sends out a new Pokémon this time: [[Harrison's Blaziken|Blaziken]]. Ash tries to scan it on the [[Pokédex]], but there's no data. Then, Brock realizes that this must be a Pokémon from the Hoenn region. The first attack Blaziken uses is {{m|Quick Attack}}, which the Sneasel has no chance of dodging. The Sneasel tries to counter with a {{m|Shadow Ball}}, but {{p|Blaziken}} dodges from that and counters with {{m|Flamethrower}}. Finally Blaziken gives Sneasel a {{m|Fire Punch}}, knocking it down. Harrison throws a [[Poké Ball]] at Sneasel and catches the Pokémon!

Ash comments about Harrison's Blaziken, seeing this Pokémon being strong and all. Finally, they go get the Sacred Fire. Finally the ceromony of the Silver Tournament begins with a runner bringing the fire to the stadium. Harrison says that he'll be at the Tournament and he's looking forward to seeing Ash there. Ash on the other hand is left stunned, but then again, nothing comes easy.

==Synopsis==

In another dimension a battle wages between two Pokémon, Dialga and Palkia. Both exchange powerful attacks, resulting in explosions that send groups of Unown flying. Dialga manages to get the upper hand, attacking Palkia with a Roar of Time. Palkia quickly defends itself, but in the process gets one of its gems damaged. In a close clash with each other, the two of them send off powerful waves of energy.

Meanwhile, a scholar is reading an old manuscript, the Diary of Godey, which contains useful information regarding Alamos Town. His room is littered with equipment for sensing energy and books from related studies. Just when the two Pokémon in the other dimension release a burst of energy, his equipment reads off pulses of energy coming from a location close to where he is, the energy indicating a space-time anomaly. But he realizes the energy is not of this dimension, it's something different, and something very powerful.

And so, the fighting continues...

===Present day===

Ash, Brock, and Dawn travel down a path. Dawn and Ash both ask Brock if they'll reach their next destination, Alamos Town, soon because they're starting to get tired and hungry. Brock says that they're really close and they begin to see the town on the horizon. They all hurry towards the town, but are disappointed when they realize that the town is on a mesa, surrounded by water. Dawn complains to Brock if he was reading the map right, but Brock is a little confused himself. In a close call, a woman in a hot air balloon floats by, asking if they want a ride. Of course, the gang accepts and hops along.

Alice's balloon soon approaches the town with its overlooking twin towers called the Space-Time Towers. Alice says that this is what the town is famous for. One of the towers is the Tower of Time; the other is the Tower of Space. The main building down on the ground holds a large Pokémon Contest, which is why Dawn wanted to come to town. However something begins rocking the balloon violently, but instead of wind, its some sort of energy. Back in the scholar's lab, his equipment goes off taking readings of the same anomaly.

Afterwards, the gang lands safely, and decides to take it easy in the town for now. Alice explains the town is very lively, and it wouldn't be too hard to find something to do. Ash tries to make a break for it but runs into a Torterra. He then sees three trainers, Katsumi, Dai, and Maki. The Torterra belongs to Katsumi, while Dai has an Empoleon and Maki has an Infernape. Seeing this as a battle opportunity, the gang challenges them to a match.

Afterwards, Alice shows the gang a garden behind the contest stadium. As they make their way there, several Pokémon begin following them, including Azurill, Marill, Azumarill, Wooper, Quagsire, Shinx, and Luxio. Thinking it'd be a good time for their Pokémon to get some exercise, the gang releases their Pokémon. A fight nearly breaks out, but Alice calms the situation by playing a tune on a reed.

Then a Gallade rushes towards the gang, and informs Alice that something has happened. Calling back their Pokémon, the gang rushes to see what's wrong. They come to a pool that's been drained and a few of the surrounding pillars toppled, but looked as if they melted at the base. They wonder who could've done it, until a decorated man by the name of Alberto enters the scene, proclaiming it's the work of Darkrai. Asking about Darkrai, the man says that it's a demon that haunts the park and he wants to catch it. A bush nearby shakes and the man calls out his Lickilily. The large Pokémon fires a Hyper Beam at the bush, only to find that it was the scholar!

Confused, Alberto wonders what the scholar is doing there. To clear up confusion with the gang, Alice says that the scholar is Tonio, her childhood friend. But Alberto claims that he's Alice's fiancé (to Brock's dismay). Alice denies that, instead saying that she likes Tonio instead (again to Brock's dismay). Alberto tries to mock about Tonio, but is soon interrupted by an ominous shadow on the ground. Then Darkrai appears from it!

== Trivia ==
* Yuyama Kunihiko travelled to [[wp:Spain|Spain]] [[n:Pokémon movie screenwriter visits Spain|together with screenwriter Hideki Sonoda]] and composer Shinji Miyazaki, to various places including the [[wp:Sagrada Familia|Sagrada Família]] in [[wp:Barcelona|Barcelona]], to get ideas for the setting of the movie.
* The design of the Space-Time Tower is based on the Sagrada Família.
** The architect behind the Space-Time Tower is named Godey, and his descendant is named Tonio, both references to the architect of the Sagrada Família, [[wp:Antoni Gaudí|Antoni Gaudí]].
* Players who had pre-ordered tickets for the Japanese run could receive a {{p|Deoxys}}. In major cinemas, a {{p|Darkrai}} could be downloaded. Instructions on how to get Darkrai were provided before and after the feature presentation by Meowth.
* The number of Pokémon debuts in this movie is matched only by [[Mewtwo Strikes Back]], [[Spell of the Unown]] and [[Jirachi: Wish Maker]]; this is because these are the only movies to follow the beginning of a new generation. With the exception of the first movie (which was released more than two years after [[Generation I]] had debuted), no Pokémon were introduced in any of these three movies that could not be found in the games of the respective generation. Counting the corresponding Pikachu shorts, ''Mewtwo Strikes Back'' had 22 debuts (of which 3 were [[Generation II]] Pokémon), ''Spell of the Unown'' had 16 and ''Jirachi: Wish Maker'' had 14, or 15 if including {{p|Groudon}} as having a live debut. This movie had 18 debuts within itself, or 20 if considering {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}'s appearances as their live debuts.
* The following promotional cards were available. Each corresponds to a Pokémon film. The first 11 were bought as a set, complete with a gloss paper folder and protective sleeving, while Darkrai had to be obtained when purchasing a ticket.
:#Counter Attacking Mewtwo ('''逆襲のミュウツー''' ''Gyakushū no Myūtsū)
:#Rising Lugia ('''爆誕のルギア''' ''Bakutan no Rugia'')
:#Crystal Tower's Entei ('''結晶塔のエンテイ''' ''Kesshōtō Entei'')
:#Time-Traversing Celebi ('''時を超えたセレビィ''' ''Toki o Koeta Serebī'')
:#Water City's Latias ('''水の都ラティアス''' ''Mizu no Miyako Ratiasu'')
:#Water City's Latios ('''水の都ラティオス''' ''Mizu no Miyako Ratiosu'')
:#Seven Nights Jirachi ('''七夜のジラーチ''' ''Nanayo no Jirāchi'')
:#Split Sky Visitor Deoxys ('''裂空の訪問者デオキシス''' ''Rekkū no Hōmonsha Deokishisu'')
:#Tree of Beginning's Mew ('''はじまりの樹のミュウ''' ''Hajimari no Ki no Myū'')
:#Wave Hero Lucario ('''波導の勇者ルカリオ''' ''Hadō no Yūsha Rukario'')
:#Prince of the Sea Manaphy ('''蒼海の王子マナフィ''' ''Umi no Ōji Manafi'')
:#Darkrai Lv. 50 ('''ダークライ Lv.50''' ''Dākurai Lv.50'')
*Five minor characters from other movies make a cameo appearance in this movie. A man and his daughter, who were briefly seen with {{p|Aipom}} in the beginning of [[Pokémon Heroes]], are given a similar appearance alongside {{p|Chimecho}} and {{p|Chingling}}. The hippie from [[Jirachi: Wish Maker]], where he sold {{an|May}} her Wishing Star, sells {{an|Dawn}} a [[Lunar Wing]] charm. Finally, the mother and girl that were reading the legend of [[Rota]] in the beginning of [[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]], are seen buying cotton candy.
*This is one of the few movies without a human antagonist. The two others are [[Destiny Deoxys]] and [[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]].
*On the wall that features Alicia in the center of the Space-Time Tower, there are many Pokémon and their counterparts on the opposite side of Alicia. They are: Solrock and Lunatone, Dustox and Beautifly, Gallade and Gardevoir, Volbeat and Illumise, Zangoose and Seviper, Electivire and Magmortar, Plusle and Minun, Leafeon and Glaceon, and the two variants of Gastrodon.
*In the English dub, Darkrai is referred as a he.

'''Ash's Pikachu''' (Japanese: '''サトシのピカチュウ''' ''Satoshi's Pikachu'') was the first [[Pokémon]] obtained by [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]] on his journey as a [[Pokémon trainer]]. Its universal voice actress is 大谷育江 ''[[Ikue Ohtani]]''. However, in some episodes during the first season of the English dub, [[Rachael Lillis]] provided its voice when the original Japanese track couldn't be saved.

==In the anime==

===History===
[[Image:Ashs 1st pokeball.JPG|thumb|left|Pikachu's [[Poké Ball]], which has a special lightning bolt mark]]
In the first episode of the Pokémon [[anime]], ''[[EP001|Pokémon, I Choose You!]]'', Ash woke up late the day he was supposed to go to [[Professor Oak|Professor Oak's]] laboratory to obtain his first Pokémon. When he arrived at the lab, the three available starter Pokémon, {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, and {{p|Squirtle}} had already been taken by other trainers who arrived earlier. Seeing that Ash was disappointed, Professor Oak gave him Pikachu, which did not take a liking to its new trainer. It refused to go into a [[Poké Ball]], and when Ash failed to catch a wild Pokémon, it laughed at him. However, by the end of the episode, Ash gained Pikachu's trust by protecting it from an attack by a flock of {{p|Spearow}} and rushing it to the [[Pokémon Center]]. Pikachu and Ash soon became inseparable. In ''[[EP039|Pikachu's Goodbye]]'', Ash gave Pikachu his consent to remain in a forest filled with Pikachu, but Pikachu returned to Ash's side.

In general, Pikachu as a species are not particularly powerful, but Ash's Pikachu is an anomaly, overcoming odds in battle numerous times. In ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'', it defeated [[Brock's Onix]] with an {{type2|Electric}} attack when Onix was drenched in water, despite Onix being naturally resistant to electricity. In ''[[EP014|Electric Shock Showdown]]'', Pikachu fought [[Lt. Surge|Lt. Surge's]] {{TP|Lt. Surge|Raichu}} and lost. During a resulting hospital stay, it refused to become Raichu's equal by evolving via a [[Thunderstone]], and in the second battle, Pikachu overcame Raichu by using its superior speed. In ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]'', [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]] remarked that Pikachu's power "far exceeds its evolutionary level." Ash's Pikachu has also defeated very high level Pokémon that Ash's other Pokémon were unable to, such as {{p|Dragonite}} and {{p|Metagross}}. It has helped Ash win innumerable battles and [[Gym]] and [[Pokémon League|League]] matches.

[[image:PikachuDP.png|thumb|right|Ash's Pikachu]]
Pikachu is extremely loyal to Ash, and while it is not always immediately trusting of strangers, it is generally friendly to humans and Pokémon alike. It acted as a guardian and big sibling to [[Misty's Togetic|Misty's Togepi]], and has been seen mediating and even breaking up fights among other Pokémon, such as in ''[[Pikachu's Vacation]]''. In ''[[Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', Pikachu, {{MTR}}, and Meowth's clone were the only Pokémon not to participate in the giant battle; Pikachu stood motionless as its clone repeatedly slapped its face.

Since Ash's first encounter with [[Team Rocket]] in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]'', Pikachu has been pursued by the trio of [[Jessie]], [[James]], and [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]]. Throughout the series, it has been Jessie, James and Meowth's desire to pokénap, con, swipe, rip off, purloin, steal, burglarize, snatch and rob this Pokémon from Ash and present it to [[Giovanni|their boss]]. To do this, they devised many attempts and devised many evil plans and came up with many scams and many other terrible schemes to fulfill that task. Jessie, James and Meowth try, try, and try some more, but despite trying hard at pulling the evil deed, every last one of their fiendish and conniving efforts and evil plans failed each time. Either their plans were stopped by Ash and his friends and/or every other trainer Ash and his friends assisted throughout the series, including the [[Officer Jenny|Officer Jennies]] in general.

As shown in a handful of episodes, the first being ''[[EP042|Showdown at Dark City]]'', Pikachu has a special fondness for ketchup, but it will eat and enjoy almost any other human or Pokémon food. A running joke in the anime also seems to be the destruction of a female character's [[bike]] with one of Pikachu's {{m|Thunderbolt}}s at the beginning of each series, which then causes her to [[Ash's friends|follow Ash]] for the remainder of the series. This has happened to [[Misty]], {{an|May}}, and {{an|Dawn}} so far.

Pikachu is the primary mascot of the Pokémon franchise, mostly due to Ash's ownership of it. It appears on nearly all merchandise and promotional material for the series, and became, due to the anime, the [[version mascot]] of and only [[starter Pokémon]] in [[Pokémon Yellow]].

Pikachu became the second non-legendary to defeat a [[legendary Pokémon]] in the anime after {{AP|Charizard}}, beating [[Pyramid King Brandon|Brandon's]] {{p|Regice}} in ''[[AG189|Pace - The Final Frontier]]'', giving Ash his final Frontier Symbol.

Pikachu was also the only Pokémon to come with Ash to [[Hoenn]], and just the same one of only two Pokémon to join Ash on his journey to [[Sinnoh]]. It is worth noting that Ash tried to bring only Pikachu again but [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]] snuck on board the ship. Up until the capture of [[Dawn's Pachirisu]], Pikachu was the only {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon in the anime owned by a main character.

In Hoenn, Pikachu learned how to surf. It also learned how to box from Ash in ''[[EP029|The Punchy Pokémon]]''.

Pikachu has taken part in Ash's first Sinnoh Gym Battle. It went against [[Roark]]'s [[Roark's Rampardos|Cranidos]] after [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]] was defeated. After being switched out, it fought {{p|Onix}}, whom Pikachu was defeated by. At Ash's rematch, Pikachu defeated {{p|Onix}}, and then fought {{p|Rampardos}}.

==In the games==
Pikachu was one of [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]]'s three Pokémon in [[Pokémon Puzzle League]]. [[Red's Pikachu (game)|Red's Pikachu]] in [[Pokémon Yellow]] also seems to be based off of him.

==In the manga==
Pikachu has appeared in two mangas based on the anime, namely ''[[Ash & Pikachu]]'' and ''[[Electric Tale of Pikachu]]''. In both, it was Ash's [[starter Pokémon]], much like the [[EP001|first anime episode]], though in ''Electric Tale'', it was found in Ash's house, not given to him by Oak.

==Trivia==
[[Image:Ash'sHatAG.jpg|right|thumb|Ash and Pikachu.]]
*Pikachu is Ash's only {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon and was the only Electric-type owned by a main character in the anime until the capture of [[Dawn's Pachirisu]].
*Some of Pikachu's speech is consistent enough that it seems that some phrases actually mean something. For instance, Pikachu always uses "Pikapi" when referring to Ash (notice that it sounds somewhat similar to "Satoshi"). Other speech includes:
**PikaPikachu: ''My name is Pikachu''. When Ash and his friends are introducing themselves to the [[characters of the day]], it says this.
**Pikachu-Pi: ''[[Misty|Kasumi-chan]]'' (Misty)
**Pika-Chu: ''[[Brock|Takeshi]]'' (Brock)
**PiPiPi: ''[[Misty's Togetic|Togepy]]'' (Togepi)
**PikakaPika: ''[[Ash's Bulbasaur|Fushigidane]]'' (Bulbasaur)
**PikaPika: ''[[Ash's Squirtle|Zenigame]]'' (Squirtle)
**PiPikachu: ''[[Team Rocket|Rocket-dan]]'' (Team Rocket). It also says this after Ash wins a badge, catches a new Pokémon or anything similar.
**Pi-Ka: ''[[Kenny (Sinnoh)|Kengo]]'' (Kenny).
**Specific names for [[Tracey Sketchit|Tracey]], {{an|May}}, [[Max]], and {{an|Dawn}} have not been heard.
**Chuuu-Pika: ''{{m|Iron Tail}}''. It says this when using {{m|Iron Tail}}.
**Pika-Chuuuuuuuu: ''{{m|Thunderbolt}}''. It says this when using {{m|Thunderbolt}}.
**PikaPikaPika...: ''{{m|Volt Tackle}}''. It says this when using {{m|Volt Tackle}}
**ChuChuChu...: ''{{m|Quick Attack}}''. It says this when using {{m|Quick Attack}} or {{m|Agility}}.
**PiPiPiPiPi...: ''{{m|Quick Attack}}''. It may also say this when using {{m|Quick Attack}} or {{m|Agility}}.
*For ''[[DP013|A Staravia is Born]]'', [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Ash's Pikachu. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about it: パートナー　サトシとピカチュウ　いいかんじ ''Partners Satoshi and Pikachu: a pleasant feeling''.
*Because there is no indent on Pikachu's tail, many cite this as proof that it is indeed male. Others disagree, noting Pikachu is from [[Kanto]] (which has not been shown to have Pikachu with indented tails in either anime or games), and was introduced during the [[Generation I]] games, long before gender differences came to be shown.
** Some also site a crush that [[Dawn's Buneary]], who is female, has on Pikachu as proof.
*In [[DP061]], {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}}, {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} and {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}} are cheering for Dawn in cheerleader outfit, while Pikachu is wearing a male kimono. This may suggest Pachirisu, Piplup and Buneary are female, while Pikachu is male.
**In [[DP062]], it and {{AP|Turtwig}} also look embarrassed being in maid outfits, much like Ash himself is, which may indicate that both Pikachu and Turtwig are male.
*Out of all five regions that Ash visited, [[Kanto]] and [[Hoenn]] are the only ones that Ash started out with just Pikachu. He did try to go to [[Sinnoh]] with Pikachu alone but Aipom followed him. At the beginning of each, Pikachu was also, in some way, injured, and ended up destroying the [[bike]] of a girl who would later travel with Ash.
*Throughout the series the yellowish color of Pikachu has become lighter and Pikachu's body has become more slender.
*Pikachu has never been seen defeating any of [[Gary Oak|Gary's]] Pokémon.
*Pikachu was the first of Ash's Pokémon to disobey him. Other Pokémon that would do so, and be better remembered for their disobedience than Pikachu, are [[Ash's Primeape|Primeape]] and [[Ash's Charizard|Charizard]].
*Pikachu has battled all the members of the {{p|Electabuzz}} evolutionary family at one time or another but has not won even once ([[Rudy]]'s Electabuzz, [[Gary's Electivire]] and [[Paul's Electabuzz|Paul's Elekid]]).

'''Super Smash Bros. Melee''' is a fighting game for the Nintendo [[GameCube]] and the sequel to the [[Nintendo 64]] title [[Super Smash Bros.]] It, like its predecessor, pits [[Nintendo]]'s many mascots against one another, and this time includes four Pokémon as playable characters, as opposed to the two featured in the previous game. Only {{p|Pikachu}} is available at the start, but eventually {{p|Jigglypuff}}, {{p|Pichu}}, and {{p|Mewtwo}} can be unlocked.
==Playable Pokémon==
===Pikachu===
Pikachu is a very fast character and pretty easy to knock of the stage due to his light weight. Pikachu taunts by saying: "Pika, Pika" and will wave at the players.
=====Ground Attacks=====
*A: {{m|Headbutt}}
*A (while dashing): Running Headbutt
*Up+A: Tail Smack
*Left or Right+A: Pika Kick
*Down+A: Tail Sweep
=====Smash Attacks=====
*Smash Up+A: Tail Somersault
*Smash Left or Right+A: {{m|Thundershock}}
*Smash Down+A: Electric Flower

=====Air Attacks=====
*A: Pika Roll
*Up+A: Tail Chop
*Foward+A: Electric Drill
*Backward+A: Glider
*Down+A: Electric Screw
=====B-Attacks=====
[[Image:Pikachu Melee.jpg|right|thumb|Pikachu]]
*'''B: Thunder Jolt'''
A ball of electricity will slinky across a level until it hits something or shorts out. When in the air, a small electric ball will appear and will slinky when it hits the ground.
*'''Up+B: {{m|Quick Attack}}'''
Pikachu will move blindingly fast from one point to another, up to two times. This attack will also slightly damage an enemy if Pikachu passes through one. This is Pikachu's recovery move and after executing it, Pikachu cannot do anything until he reaches the ground or grabs a ledge.
*'''Down+B: {{m|Thunder}}'''
Pikachu summons a cloud that will strike a thunderbolt down towards the ground. The thunderbolt cannot pass through any terrain objects or floors. The thunderbolt will damage any enemies in the air while on its way down. If the thunderbolt strikes Pikachu, any enemies near him will take the most damage.
*'''Side+B: {{m|Skull Bash}}'''
Pikachu will charge up and rocket sideways. Depending on how long the B button is held, Pikachu can fly farther and hit harder. This is not considered a recovery move, so Pikachu can use it again and again while in the air.

=====Grab/Throw Attacks=====
To grab an opponent, use ''Z'' or ''R+A''. These are attacks executed only when holding an opponent using the aforementioned move.
*A or Z: Electric Shock
*Forward: Electrocution
*Backward: {{m|Submission}}
*Up: Electric Skull
*Down: Electric Slam

===Pichu===
[[Image:Pichu Melee.jpg|right|thumb|Pichu]]
Pichu's attacks are identical to Pikachu's, although Pichu damages itself while using attacks that use electricity. Pichu is really fast, actually one of the fastest, but is so light and small; it's very easy to send it flying. Pichu taunts by saying "Pichu!" and doing a little jiggle on the floor, either on its back or hopping on one foot.
=====Ground Attacks=====
*A: Generic attack
*A (while dashing): Headbutt
*Up+A: Tail Hit
*Side+A: Small Kick
*Down+A: Tail Sweep
=====Smash Attacks=====
*Smash Up+A: Head Slam
*Smash Left or Right+A: Sizzle {{m|Thundershock}} (Pichu will damage itself when using this move)
*Smash Down+A: Head Sweep
=====Air Attacks=====
*A: Pichu Roll
*Up+A: Tail Chop
*Forward+A: Electric Drill (Pichu will damage itself when using this move)
*Backward+A: Glider
*Down+A: Electric Screw (Pichu will damage itself when using this move)
=====B-Attacks=====
*'''B: Thunder Jolt'''
Pichu will damage itself and release an electrical ball that will arc across the ground until it dissipates or hits something.
*'''Up+B: {{m|Quick Attack}}'''
Like Pikachu, Pichu will zip really fast from one point to another up to two times. Unlike Pikachu however, Pichu will not damage anyone if it passes through an enemy while executing this, but instead will damage itself. 1% for the first traversion, then 3% for the next. This is Pichu's third jump.
*'''Down+B: {{m|Thunder}}'''
Pichu will summon a cloud to strike a lightning bolt down towards the ground. Pichu will damage itself if the bolt strikes Pichu. Unlike Pikachu's {{m|Thunder}}, this bolt travels slightly slower and as such, when hitting an enemy, it will shock them up to 4 times, dealing accumulative damage.
*'''Side+B: {{m|Skull Bash}}'''
Depending on how long you hold B, Pichu will charge up and zoom across to hit anyone in the way. Pichu can hold this charge for slightly longer than Pikachu and is much stronger when fully charged. Pichu will damage itself when using this move.

=====Grab/Throw Attacks=====
To grab an opponent, use Z or R+A, then to attack them, press A or Z again or tilt the control stick in one direction. These are attacks executed only when holding an opponent using the aforementioned move.

*A or Z: Shock
*Forward: Electrocution
*Backward: {{m|Submission}}
*Up: Electric Skull
*Down: Slam

===Mewtwo===
[[Image:Mewtwo Melee.jpg|right|thumb|Mewtwo]]
Despite being a legendary Pokémon, Mewtwo is easily knocked around. This is mainly due to the fact Mewtwo is always floating. Mewtwo will never run or dash across the ground, but hover and slide across. Mewtwo has the second highest jump in the game, after Falco. Mewtwo taunts by spinning around and laughing evilly.
=====Ground Attacks=====
*A: Dark Flash
*A A: Dark Flame
*A (while Dashing): Torch
*Up+A: Flip
*Side+A: {{m|Tail Whip}}
*Down+A: Tail Sweep
=====Smash Attacks=====
*Smash Up+A: Galaxy Force
*Smash Left or Right+A: Shadow Blast
*Smash Down+A: Shadow Bomb
=====Air Attacks=====
*A: Body Spark
*Up+A: Somersault Tail Hit
*Foward+A: Shadow Scratch
*Backward+A: Tail Flick
*Down+A: Meteor Kick (a Meteor Smash)
=====B-Attacks=====
*'''B: {{m|Shadow Ball}}'''
Press B once to cause Mewtwo to start charging. If he is hit while charging, he will lose the charge, but if he has charged long enough, and is hit, the charge for the Shadow Ball will still remain. Tilting the control stick left or right will cause Mewtwo to dodge in that direction and cease charging, preserving the Shadow Ball. Pressing R or L while charging will cease the charging without Mewtwo dodging. Mewtwo's Shadow Ball can also be left charging indefinitely and will damage anyone if they come into physical contact with the ball. While throwing it, Mewtwo will recoil, significantly if he is in the air. The ball, when thrown, will travel along a zig-zag jagged path until it hits something or dissipates. If the Shadow Ball hits a terrain object, it will erupt causing a small explosion that will cause splash damage to anyone nearby.
*'''Up+B: {{m|Teleport}}'''
Mewtwo teleports once in the direction of your choice. Mewtwo is invulnerable to damage while teleporting, but can still be grabbed. Teleport can't penetrate terrain objects or impenetrable floors.
*'''Down+B: {{m|Disable}}'''
Short range attack that temporary disables the opponent, rendering it dizzy and unable to move. The amount of time the opponent is dazed depends on its current damage. If you use this move again when the opponent is already disabled, it will flick the enemy up in the air as if you punched it. If you use this move in the air (successfully) the enemy will immediately start to freefall until it hits the ground.
*'''Side+B: {{m|Confusion}}'''
The opponent is flipped around in the air, causing damage. Unlike other moves this move does not degrade in damage if used continuously.

=====Grab/Throw Attacks=====
To grab an opponent, use Z or R+A, then to attack them, press A or Z again or tilt the control stick in one direction. These are attacks executed only when holding an opponent using the aforementioned move.
*A or Z: Shock
*Forward: Barrage
*Backward: {{m|Psychic}} - Reverse Throw
*Up: {{m|Psychic}} - Spiral Throw
*Down: {{m|Body Slam}}

===Jigglypuff===
[[Image:Jigglypuff Melee.jpg|right|thumb|Jigglypuff (Purin)]]
Jigglypuff is bouncy, has average speed, and is one of the lightest characters in the game. Like Kirby, she is able to fly back onto the stage, but unlike Kirby, after five jumps, she doesn't have an Up+B recovery move. She taunts by spinning on one foot and winking at the camera while calling out her name.
=====Ground Attacks=====
*A: Punch
*A A: One-two Punch
*A (while Dashing): {{m|Tackle}}
*Up+A: Back Kick
*Side+A: Roundhouse Kick
*Down+A: {{m|Low Kick}}
=====Smash Attacks=====
*Smash Up+A: Headbutt
*Smash Left or Right+A: {{m|Jump Kick}}
*Smash Down+A: Split Kick
=====Air Attacks=====
*A: Body Spark
*Up+A: Overhead Punch
*Foward+A: Drop Kick
*Backward+A: Back Kick
*Down+A: Spinning Drop Kick
=====B-Attacks=====
*'''B: {{m|Rollout}}'''
Hold down B to charge up speed and power. Jigglypuff spins in place (always facing the camera), and after letting go of B, rolls forward, hitting any opponent and damaging any container, stage hazard, etc. in its path. Tapping the control stick in the opposite direction will stop Jigglypuff, and allow you to reverse directions. If the attack ends with Jigglypuff in the air, you won't be able to recover.
*'''Up+B: {{m|Sing}}'''
Jigglypuff sings, lulling enemies close by to sleep. The opponent's damage determines how long they'll stay asleep. Not recommended on opponents with little damage, as they can fall asleep ''and recover'' in the time it takes Jigglypuff to stop singing.
*'''Down+B: {{m|Rest}}'''
Very short range attack that inflicts 20-30% damage and sends opponents flying. Good for easy KOs if the enemy's damage is high enough, but Jigglypuff must make direct contact with the opponent. Also, the move will only work the second the player hits Down+B; it takes a few seconds for her to recover, leaving Jigglypuff wide open.
*'''Side+B: {{m|Pound}}'''
Jigglypuff lashes out with her arm, inflicting 10-15% damage and popping the enemy straight up into the air. Good for setting up juggles, and also works well as a recovery move once a player has expended all of her jumps.

=====Grab/Throw Attacks=====
To grab an opponent, use Z or R+A, then to attack them, press A or Z again or tilt the control stick in one direction. These are attacks executed only when holding an opponent using the aforementioned move.
*A or Z: Right hook
*Forward: Quick Inflate
*Backward: Back Suplex
*Up: Pop-Up
*Down: Roll Around

==Poké Ball Pokémon==

One of the items that can be picked up in Super Smash Bros. Melee is the [[Poké Ball]]; with it numerous Pokémon can be summoned to damage enemies. These Pokémon and their effects in the game are listed below:

'''Lucario''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ルカリオ''' ''Lucario'') is a {{2t|Fighting|Steel}}-type Pokémon.

Lucario evolves from {{p|Riolu}} by leveling up during the day if its [[Happiness]] has reached a certain point.

=Biology=
==Physiology==
Lucario is a bipedal, jackal-like Pokémon that's around 4 feet in height. Lucario's torso is yellow instead of black. Lucario's forepaws are now black and the rounded bumps on the back are now pointed spikes. In addition, there's a third spike on Lucario's chest. Lucario's snout and ears have also grown longer since its evolution from {{p|Riolu}}.
===Gender differences===
None.
===Special abilities===
Lucario are sensitive to a special type of energy called [[wp:Aura (paranormal)|Aura]]. Lucario can study these waves to predict the movements of their opponents, and use them to track anyone. Lucario can also guide the waves offensively to create explosive balls of Aura energy (such as {{m|Aura Sphere}}). Lucario can also understand human speech. Some people say that Lucario can also speak in human language. However, only one Lucario has been known to do this.

==Behavior==
==Habitat==
Lucario usually live deep in mountains far from people to improve their skills.

==Diet==
''Main article: [[Pokémon food]]''

The Lucario in ''[[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'' was shown eating berries and was introduced to chocolate by Max.

=Trivia=
* Lucario's English name was revealed on February 9, 2006, when the title for the movie [[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]] was announced.
* Before [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl]] were released, many believed Lucario to be a [[legendary Pokémon]], based on its starring role in [[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]. This has since been proven untrue, as it is readily available in the [[Generation IV]] games, and even evolves from a Pokémon, {{p|Riolu}}.
* This makes it the first non-legendary Pokémon to be in a central role in a Pokémon movie.
* Lucario is the only Pokémon other than the {{p|Cubone}} [[List of Pokémon by evolution family|evolutionary family]] to learn {{m2|Bone Rush|a bone-based}} [[move|attack]].
* Lucario is one of three Pokémon on the player's team in the demo version of {{g|Diamond and Pearl}}.
* Lucario is the first {{type2|Fighting}} Pokémon to be a fighter in the [[Super Smash Bros.]] series.
* No other Pokémon has the same [[type]] combination as Lucario.

==Origin==
Lucario appears to be based on the Egyptian god [[wp:Anubis|Anubis]], who has the head of a [[wp:Jackal|jackal]]. It also seems to be based on an Egyptian boxer. [[wp:boxing|Boxing]] is a sport that is believed to have origins in Egypt. The black appendages on the back of its head are used to detect the auras of creatures and objects around it. While Lucario reads aura, it closes its eyes, and thus the appendages and the way they look "tied" around its face appear to be based on someone being blindfolded.

===Name origin===
Lucario's name may be a corrupted, backward version of ''[[wp:oracle|oracle]]''. It may also be a reference to Cairo, Egypt. The "lu" may come from "lupine," meaning "wolf," in reference to its canine-like appearance.

'''Lucario''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ルカリオ''' ''Lucario'') is a {{2t|Fighting|Steel}}-type Pokémon.

Lucario evolves from {{p|Riolu}} by leveling up during the day if its [[Happiness]] has reached a certain point.

=Biology=
==Physiology==
Lucario is a bipedal, jackal-like Pokémon that's around 4 feet in height. Lucario's torso is yellow instead of black. Lucario's forepaws are now black and the rounded bumps on the back are now pointed spikes. In addition, there's a third spike on Lucario's chest. Lucario's snout and ears have also grown longer since its evolution from {{p|Riolu}}.
===Gender differences===
None.
===Special abilities===
Lucario are sensitive to a special type of energy called [[wp:Aura (paranormal)|Aura]]. Lucario can study these waves to predict the movements of their opponents, and use them to track anyone. Lucario can also guide the waves offensively to create explosive balls of Aura energy (such as {{m|Aura Sphere}}). Lucario can also understand human speech. Some people say that Lucario can also speak in human language. However, only one Lucario has been known to do this.

The Subspace Emissary

2008-02-17T02:35:23Z

Pokemon12345:

{{Upcoming notice}}
'''The Subspace Emissary''' (Japanese: '''亜空の使者''' ''The Subspace Emissary'') is a single-player game that is contained within [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]. It is a side-scrolling action game with a storyline that is said to emphasize character development. Most of the playable characters are protagonists, including {{p|Pikachu}}, [[Red (game)|Pokémon Trainer]] and {{p|Lucario}}.

The characters form teams based on the developments of the story. Masahiro Sakurai has stated that most hidden characters are unlocked by simply playing through The Subspace Emissary and, indeed, Lucario is unlocked in this fashion. A second player can join at any time, though the camera will focus on player one.

In order to obtain trophies of the enemies in this game, the player must throw a Trophy Stand at them. This acts just like a [[Poké Ball]] as it 'captures' the opponent when they are at low health. It also works against bosses, such as {{p|Rayquaza}}.

==Known plot==
[[Image:Lucario Metaknight.jpg|right|thumb|Lucario's team.]]
[[Image:Brawl Boss Rayquaza.jpg|right|thumb|A boss fight against Rayquaza.]]
Led by a being known as the Ancient Minister, the Subspace Army's plan is to cut apart the world and carry it into Subspace. This is achieved by two R.O.B.s detonating a Subspace Bomb and the minions known as Primid attacking anyone who resists. Now everyone must join together to stop this threat.

===Pikachu===
While searching for her stolen power suit, Samus rescues Pikachu from a Subspace Base and the two must escape as a team.

===Pokémon Trainer===
Pokémon Trainer and Lucas team up to help rescue Ness from Wario and so that Pokémon Trainer can capture a wild Ivysaur and Charizard.

===Lucario===
In a snowy area, Meta Knight and the Ice Climbers encounter Lucario. After a fight that unlocks Lucario, he joins their team, uses [[aura]] to find Snake hiding under a box, and helps Meta Knight recover the Halberd from a mind-controlled Mr. Game and Watch.

===Rayquaza===
Separated from DK, Diddy comes across a lake with a burning Arwing spaceship at the shore. Rayquaza emerges from the water and captures Diddy but then Fox jumps out of the ship and makes a dramatic rescue. What happens from there is yet to be seen but it is known that there will be a fight against Rayquaza and interference from Bowser.

'''Super Smash Bros. Melee''' is a fighting game for the Nintendo [[GameCube]] and the sequel to the [[Nintendo 64]] title [[Super Smash Bros.]] It, like its predecessor, pits [[Nintendo]]'s many mascots against one another, and this time includes four Pokémon as playable characters, as opposed to the two featured in the previous game. Only {{p|Pikachu}} is available at the start, but eventually {{p|Jigglypuff}}, {{p|Pichu}}, and {{p|Mewtwo}} can be unlocked.
==Playable Pokémon==
===Pikachu===
Pikachu is a very fast character and pretty easy to knock of the stage due to his light weight. Pikachu taunts by saying: "Pika, Pika" and will wave at the players.
=====Ground Attacks=====
*A: {{m|Headbutt}}
*A (while dashing): Running Headbutt
*Up+A: Tail Smack
*Left or Right+A: Pika Kick
*Down+A: Tail Sweep
=====Smash Attacks=====
*Smash Up+A: Tail Somersault
*Smash Left or Right+A: {{m|Thundershock}}
*Smash Down+A: Electric Flower

=====Air Attacks=====
*A: Pika Roll
*Up+A: Tail Chop
*Foward+A: Electric Drill
*Backward+A: Glider
*Down+A: Electric Screw
=====B-Attacks=====
[[Image:Pikachu Melee.jpg|right|thumb|Pikachu]]
*'''B: Thunder Jolt'''
A ball of electricity will slinky across a level until it hits something or shorts out. When in the air, a small electric ball will appear and will slinky when it hits the ground.
*'''Up+B: {{m|Quick Attack}}'''
Pikachu will move blindingly fast from one point to another, up to two times. This attack will also slightly damage an enemy if Pikachu passes through one. This is Pikachu's recovery move and after executing it, Pikachu cannot do anything until he reaches the ground or grabs a ledge.
*'''Down+B: {{m|Thunder}}'''
Pikachu summons a cloud that will strike a thunderbolt down towards the ground. The thunderbolt cannot pass through any terrain objects or floors. The thunderbolt will damage any enemies in the air while on its way down. If the thunderbolt strikes Pikachu, any enemies near him will take the most damage.
*'''Side+B: {{m|Skull Bash}}'''
Pikachu will charge up and rocket sideways. Depending on how long the B button is held, Pikachu can fly farther and hit harder. This is not considered a recovery move, so Pikachu can use it again and again while in the air.

=====Grab/Throw Attacks=====
To grab an opponent, use ''Z'' or ''R+A''. These are attacks executed only when holding an opponent using the aforementioned move.
*A or Z: Electric Shock
*Forward: Electrocution
*Backward: {{m|Submission}}
*Up: Electric Skull
*Down: Electric Slam

===Pichu===
[[Image:Pichu Melee.jpg|right|thumb|Pichu]]
Pichu's attacks are identical to Pikachu's, although Pichu damages itself while using attacks that use electricity. Pichu is really fast, actually one of the fastest, but is so light and small; it's very easy to send it flying. Pichu taunts by saying "Pichu!" and doing a little jiggle on the floor, either on its back or hopping on one foot.
=====Ground Attacks=====
*A: Generic attack
*A (while dashing): Headbutt
*Up+A: Tail Hit
*Side+A: Small Kick
*Down+A: Tail Sweep
=====Smash Attacks=====
*Smash Up+A: Head Slam
*Smash Left or Right+A: Sizzle {{m|Thundershock}} (Pichu will damage itself when using this move)
*Smash Down+A: Head Sweep
=====Air Attacks=====
*A: Pichu Roll
*Up+A: Tail Chop
*Forward+A: Electric Drill (Pichu will damage itself when using this move)
*Backward+A: Glider
*Down+A: Electric Screw (Pichu will damage itself when using this move)
=====B-Attacks=====
*'''B: Thunder Jolt'''
Pichu will damage itself and release an electrical ball that will arc across the ground until it dissipates or hits something.
*'''Up+B: {{m|Quick Attack}}'''
Like Pikachu, Pichu will zip really fast from one point to another up to two times. Unlike Pikachu however, Pichu will not damage anyone if it passes through an enemy while executing this, but instead will damage itself. 1% for the first traversion, then 3% for the next. This is Pichu's third jump.
*'''Down+B: {{m|Thunder}}'''
Pichu will summon a cloud to strike a lightning bolt down towards the ground. Pichu will damage itself if the bolt strikes Pichu. Unlike Pikachu's {{m|Thunder}}, this bolt travels slightly slower and as such, when hitting an enemy, it will shock them up to 4 times, dealing accumulative damage.
*'''Side+B: {{m|Skull Bash}}'''
Depending on how long you hold B, Pichu will charge up and zoom across to hit anyone in the way. Pichu can hold this charge for slightly longer than Pikachu and is much stronger when fully charged. Pichu will damage itself when using this move.

=====Grab/Throw Attacks=====
To grab an opponent, use Z or R+A, then to attack them, press A or Z again or tilt the control stick in one direction. These are attacks executed only when holding an opponent using the aforementioned move.

*A or Z: Shock
*Forward: Electrocution
*Backward: {{m|Submission}}
*Up: Electric Skull
*Down: Slam

===Mewtwo===
[[Image:Mewtwo Melee.jpg|right|thumb|Mewtwo]]
Despite being a legendary Pokémon, Mewtwo is easily knocked around. This is mainly due to the fact Mewtwo is always floating. Mewtwo will never run or dash across the ground, but hover and slide across. Mewtwo has the second highest jump in the game, after Falco. Mewtwo taunts by spinning around and laughing evilly.
=====Ground Attacks=====
*A: Dark Flash
*A A: Dark Flame
*A (while Dashing): Torch
*Up+A: Flip
*Side+A: {{m|Tail Whip}}
*Down+A: Tail Sweep
=====Smash Attacks=====
*Smash Up+A: Galaxy Force
*Smash Left or Right+A: Shadow Blast
*Smash Down+A: Shadow Bomb
=====Air Attacks=====
*A: Body Spark
*Up+A: Somersault Tail Hit
*Foward+A: Shadow Scratch
*Backward+A: Tail Flick
*Down+A: Meteor Kick (a Meteor Smash)
=====B-Attacks=====
*'''B: {{m|Shadow Ball}}'''
Press B once to cause Mewtwo to start charging. If he is hit while charging, he will lose the charge, but if he has charged long enough, and is hit, the charge for the Shadow Ball will still remain. Tilting the control stick left or right will cause Mewtwo to dodge in that direction and cease charging, preserving the Shadow Ball. Pressing R or L while charging will cease the charging without Mewtwo dodging. Mewtwo's Shadow Ball can also be left charging indefinitely and will damage anyone if they come into physical contact with the ball. While throwing it, Mewtwo will recoil, significantly if he is in the air. The ball, when thrown, will travel along a zig-zag jagged path until it hits something or dissipates. If the Shadow Ball hits a terrain object, it will erupt causing a small explosion that will cause splash damage to anyone nearby.
*'''Up+B: {{m|Teleport}}'''
Mewtwo teleports once in the direction of your choice. Mewtwo is invulnerable to damage while teleporting, but can still be grabbed. Teleport can't penetrate terrain objects or impenetrable floors.
*'''Down+B: {{m|Disable}}'''
Short range attack that temporary disables the opponent, rendering it dizzy and unable to move. The amount of time the opponent is dazed depends on its current damage. If you use this move again when the opponent is already disabled, it will flick the enemy up in the air as if you punched it. If you use this move in the air (successfully) the enemy will immediately start to freefall until it hits the ground.
*'''Side+B: {{m|Confusion}}'''
The opponent is flipped around in the air, causing damage. Unlike other moves this move does not degrade in damage if used continuously.

=====Grab/Throw Attacks=====
To grab an opponent, use Z or R+A, then to attack them, press A or Z again or tilt the control stick in one direction. These are attacks executed only when holding an opponent using the aforementioned move.
*A or Z: Shock
*Forward: Barrage
*Backward: {{m|Psychic}} - Reverse Throw
*Up: {{m|Psychic}} - Spiral Throw
*Down: {{m|Body Slam}}

===Jigglypuff===
[[Image:Jigglypuff Melee.jpg|right|thumb|Jigglypuff]]
Jigglypuff is bouncy, has average speed, and is one of the lightest characters in the game. Like Kirby, she is able to fly back onto the stage, but unlike Kirby, after five jumps, she doesn't have an Up+B recovery move. She taunts by spinning on one foot and winking at the camera while calling out her name.
=====Ground Attacks=====
*A: Punch
*A A: One-two Punch
*A (while Dashing): {{m|Tackle}}
*Up+A: Back Kick
*Side+A: Roundhouse Kick
*Down+A: {{m|Low Kick}}
=====Smash Attacks=====
*Smash Up+A: Headbutt
*Smash Left or Right+A: {{m|Jump Kick}}
*Smash Down+A: Split Kick
=====Air Attacks=====
*A: Body Spark
*Up+A: Overhead Punch
*Foward+A: Drop Kick
*Backward+A: Back Kick
*Down+A: Spinning Drop Kick
=====B-Attacks=====
*'''B: {{m|Rollout}}'''
Hold down B to charge up speed and power. Jigglypuff spins in place (always facing the camera), and after letting go of B, rolls forward, hitting any opponent and damaging any container, stage hazard, etc. in its path. Tapping the control stick in the opposite direction will stop Jigglypuff, and allow you to reverse directions. If the attack ends with Jigglypuff in the air, you won't be able to recover.
*'''Up+B: {{m|Sing}}'''
Jigglypuff sings, lulling enemies close by to sleep. The opponent's damage determines how long they'll stay asleep. Not recommended on opponents with little damage, as they can fall asleep ''and recover'' in the time it takes Jigglypuff to stop singing.
*'''Down+B: {{m|Rest}}'''
Very short range attack that inflicts 20-30% damage and sends opponents flying. Good for easy KOs if the enemy's damage is high enough, but Jigglypuff must make direct contact with the opponent. Also, the move will only work the second the player hits Down+B; it takes a few seconds for her to recover, leaving Jigglypuff wide open.
*'''Side+B: {{m|Pound}}'''
Jigglypuff lashes out with her arm, inflicting 10-15% damage and popping the enemy straight up into the air. Good for setting up juggles, and also works well as a recovery move once a player has expended all of her jumps.

=====Grab/Throw Attacks=====
To grab an opponent, use Z or R+A, then to attack them, press A or Z again or tilt the control stick in one direction. These are attacks executed only when holding an opponent using the aforementioned move.
*A or Z: Right hook
*Forward: Quick Inflate
*Backward: Back Suplex
*Up: Pop-Up
*Down: Roll Around

'''Super Smash Bros. Melee''' is a fighting game for the Nintendo [[GameCube]] and the sequel to the [[Nintendo 64]] title [[Super Smash Bros.]] It, like its predecessor, pits [[Nintendo]]'s many mascots against one another, and this time includes four Pokémon as playable characters, as opposed to the two featured in the previous game. Only {{p|Pikachu}} is available at the start, but eventually {{p|Jigglypuff}}, {{p|Pichu}}, and {{p|Mewtwo}} can be unlocked.
==Playable Pokémon==
===Pikachu===
Pikachu is a very fast character and pretty easy to knock of the stage due to his light weight. Pikachu taunts by saying: "Pika, Pika" and will wave at the players.
=====Ground Attacks=====
*A: {{m|Headbutt}}
*A (while dashing): Running Headbutt
*Up+A: Tail Smack
*Left or Right+A: Pika Kick

*'''B: Thunder Jolt'''
A ball of electricity will slinky across a level until it hits something or shorts out. When in the air, a small electric ball will appear and will slinky when it hits the ground.
*'''Up+B: {{m|Quick Attack}}'''
Pikachu will move blindingly fast from one point to another, up to two times. This attack will also slightly damage an enemy if Pikachu passes through one. This is Pikachu's recovery move and after executing it, Pikachu cannot do anything until he reaches the ground or grabs a ledge.
*'''Down+B: {{m|Thunder}}'''
Pikachu summons a cloud that will strike a thunderbolt down towards the ground. The thunderbolt cannot pass through any terrain objects or floors. The thunderbolt will damage any enemies in the air while on its way down. If the thunderbolt strikes Pikachu, any enemies near him will take the most damage.
*'''Side+B: {{m|Skull Bash}}'''
Pikachu will charge up and rocket sideways. Depending on how long the B button is held, Pikachu can fly farther and hit harder. This is not considered a recovery move, so Pikachu can use it again and again while in the air.

'''Spear Pillar''' (Japanese: '''やりのはしら''' ''Spear Pillar'') is a location in the [[Sinnoh]] region, located atop [[Mt. Coronet]], where {{p|Dialga}} or {{p|Palkia}} can be battled and captured in [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl]], depending on the version. It is also where the player meets the boss of [[Team Galactic]], [[Cyrus]], and faces off against him as well as [[Mars]] and [[Jupiter]]. The player faces Mars and Jupiter while battling alongside his/her [[Pearl (game)|rival]].

After the defeat or capture of {{p|Dialga}} or {{p|Palkia}}, the [[Adamant Orb]] or [[Lustrous Orb]], respectively, will be able to be found behind where the Pokémon was.

If the player has the [[Azure Flute]], it will make a whistling noise as soon as the player enters the area from the cave. If the player chooses to blow into it, a staircase will appear that extends up to the [[Hall of Origin]], where {{p|Arceus}} awaits.

Spear Pillar is also an unlockable stage in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]. It has breakable parts and features {{p|Dialga}} in the background, although {{p|Palkia}} is said to show up. The breakable bits will return with a time-warp, and the stage is said to shake diagonally on occassion.

== Trivia ==
*The name ''spear pillar'' is a reference to the creation myth in [[wp:Shinto|Shintō]], where the deities [[wp:Izanagi|Izanagi]] and [[wp:Izanami|Izanami]] were given the spear 天沼矛 ''Ame-no-nuboko'', with which they created 淤能碁呂島 ''Onogoroshima'', upon which they built the pillar 天御柱 ''Ame-no-mihashira''.

Ash's Infernape

'''Ash's Chimchar''' (Japanese: '''サトシのヒコザル''' ''Satoshi's Hikozaru'') is a Pokémon owned by [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]]. Chimchar is voiced by 林原めぐみ ''[[Megumi Hayashibara]]'' in Japanese and [[Bill Rogers]] in English. Chimchar was initially owned by [[Paul]] but joined Ash's team after being released in [[DP051]].

When Paul first saw Chimchar, it was being chased by a group of {{p|Zangoose}}. The situation looked bad for Chimchar but in its stress it pulled off an extremely powerful {{m|Flame Wheel}}. This impressed Paul enough to add Chimchar to his regular team. However, this first impression did not match up to Chimchar's normal abilities and so Paul regularly criticized it for being weak. After this incident, Chimchar had a morbid fear of all {{p|Zangoose}}.

Chimchar's first episode was ''[[DP003|When Pokémon Worlds Collide]]'' where Paul used it to battle [[Dawn's Ambipom|Ash's Aipom]]. It fought well but lost in the end. Chimchar reappeared in ''[[DP006|Different Strokes for Different Blokes]]'' and where it won against [[Ash's Turtwig]] and ''[[DP015|Shapes of Things to Come]]'' where it beat Roark's {{p|Onix}} but lost to [[Roark]]'s [[Roark's Rampardos|Cranidos]].

[[Image:Ash_chimchar_invite.jpg|left|thumb|Ash adopting Chimchar]]
After losing to [[Cynthia]]'s {{TP|Cynthia|Garchomp}} in ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training]]'', Paul realized that Chimchar was not fulfilling his expectations. This culminated in the tag battle tournament arc that spanned through ''[[DP050|Tag, We're It!]]'', ''[[DP051|Glory Blaze]]'' and ''[[DP052|Smells Like Team Spirit]]'' where he was forced to battle alongside Ash. That night, Ash discovered Paul's training regime, which involved his Pokémon attacking Chimchar in the hopes of creating the power he had seen before. Ash intervened and took Chimchar to the Pokémon Center where Nurse Joy told Paul it would be unable to battle. However, Paul ignored this warning.

During the next battle against a Zangoose and a {{p|Metagross}}, Chimchar was too scared to make any attack when caught in Zangoose's claws and had to be saved by Turtwig, who was then seriously hurt through Chimchar following Paul's orders. Chimchar made up for this by protecting Turtwig from a {{m|Fire Blast}} attack. Furious at it, Paul refused to give any orders and he simply turned away. Shocked by this, Ash gave Chimchar commands to get them out of the situation before finishing the battle with Turtwig. After the battle, Paul released Chimchar in front of Ash, who then invited it to join him.

After being invited by Ash, Chimchar was caught by [[Team Rocket]], but it got free by itself, and accepted Ash's offer, happily. Ash used Chimchar in the [[Double battle|tag battle]] final, when he and Paul battled {{an|Dawn}} and [[Conway]]. Chimchar and [[Paul's Elekid]] battled [[Ash's Buizel|Dawn's Buizel]] and Conway's {{p|Heracross}}. During the fight {{p|Elekid}} evolved into [[Paul's Electabuzz|Electabuzz]] and [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]] and Paul won the match and both were presented with a Soothe Bell.

In [[DP053]], Ash and his friends had a picnic party. Chimchar watched the Pokémon having fun. Later, Ash invited it to battle against Dawn and [[Dawn's Piplup|her Piplup]]. Piplup managed to defeat {{p|Chimchar}}. Later Chimchar kept having flashbacks of when it was still in Paul's possession reflecting on how its former trainer treated it as opposed to how Ash does, after which it cried tears of joy as it was finally treated with patience and kindness by Ash and [[Ash's friends|his friends]], something Paul failed to do as its trainer.

The next day, Chimchar had to fight with three [[Wild Pokémon|wild]] {{p|Zangoose}}, but it overcame its fear and it beat them.

==Trivia==
*This is Ash's third primate-based [[Pokémon]], the others being {{AP|Primeape}} and [[Dawn's Aipom|Aipom]].
*Chimchar being released by its uncaring original trainer, then being captured by Ash echoes a [[EP011|similar incident]] in Kanto, which resulted in Ash getting [[Ash's Charizard|a Charmander]].
*Because of his capture of Chimchar, Ash now has owned each Fire-type starter whose English name begins with a C and whose Japanese name begins with a ヒ ''hi'': Charmander, {{AP|Cyndaquil}}, and Chimchar. Incidentally, Charmander and Chimchar were either abused or abandoned by their former trainers, while Cyndaquil narrowly avoided being captured by [[Koji|a potentially abusive trainer]].
*Fans initially assumed Chimchar to be Paul's [[starter Pokémon]] but it was revealed in ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training!]]'' that Paul's starter Pokémon was actually [[Paul's Torterra|a Turtwig]], possibly in parallel to Ash's.
*Chimchar used to be scared of [[Zangoose]].

==Synopsis==

In another dimension a battle wages between two Pokémon, Dialga and Palkia. Both exchange powerful attacks, resulting in explosions that send groups of Unown flying. Dialga manages to get the upper hand, attacking Palkia with a Roar of Time. Palkia quickly defends itself, but in the process gets one of its gems damaged. In a close clash with each other, the two of them send off powerful waves of energy.

Meanwhile, a scholar is reading an old manuscript, the Diary of Godey, which contains useful information regarding Alamos Town. His room is littered with equipment for sensing energy and books from related studies. Just when the two Pokémon in the other dimension release a burst of energy, his equipment reads off pulses of energy coming from a location close to where he is, the energy indicating a space-time anomaly. But he realizes the energy is not of this dimension, it's something different, and something very powerful.

And so, the fighting continues...

===Present day===

Ash, Brock, and Dawn travel down a path. Dawn and Ash both ask Brock if they'll reach their next destination, Alamos Town, soon because they're starting to get tired and hungry. Brock says that they're really close and they begin to see the town on the horizon. They all hurry towards the town, but are disappointed when they realize that the town is on a mesa, surrounded by water. Dawn complains to Brock if he was reading the map right, but Brock is a little confused himself. In a close call, a woman in a hot air balloon floats by, asking if they want a ride. Of course, the gang accepts and hops along.

Alice's balloon soon approaches the town with its overlooking twin towers called the Space-Time Towers. Alice says that this is what the town is famous for. One of the towers is the Tower of Time; the other is the Tower of Space. The main building down on the ground holds a large Pokémon Contest, which is why Dawn wanted to come to town. However something begins rocking the balloon violently, but instead of wind, its some sort of energy. Back in the scholar's lab, his equipment goes off taking readings of the same anomaly.

Afterwards, the gang lands safely, and decides to take it easy in the town for now. Alice explains the town is very lively, and it wouldn't be too hard to find something to do. Ash tries to make a break for it but runs into a Torterra. He then sees three trainers, Katsumi, Dai, and Maki. The Torterra belongs to Katsumi, while Dai has an Empoleon and Maki has an Infernape. Seeing this as a battle opportunity, the gang challenges them to a match.

Afterwards, Alice shows the gang a garden behind the contest stadium. As they make their way there, several Pokémon begin following them, including Azurill, Marill, Azumarill, Wooper, Quagsire, Shinx, and Luxio. Thinking it'd be a good time for their Pokémon to get some exercise, the gang releases their Pokémon. A fight nearly breaks out, but Alice calms the situation by playing a tune on a reed.

Then a Gallade rushes towards the gang, and informs Alice that something has happened. Calling back their Pokémon, the gang rushes to see what's wrong. They come to a pool that's been drained and a few of the surrounding pillars toppled, but looked as if they melted at the base. They wonder who could've done it, until a decorated man by the name of Alberto enters the scene, proclaiming it's the work of Darkrai. Asking about Darkrai, the man says that it's a demon that haunts the park and he wants to catch it. A bush nearby shakes and the man calls out his Lickilily. The large Pokémon fires a Hyper Beam at the bush, only to find that it was the scholar!

Confused, Alberto wonders what the scholar is doing there. To clear up confusion with the gang, Alice says that the scholar is Tonio, her childhood friend. But Alberto claims that he's Alice's fiancé (to Brock's dismay). Alice denies that, instead saying that she likes Tonio instead (again to Brock's dismay). Alberto tries to mock about Tonio, but is soon interrupted by an ominous shadow on the ground. Then Darkrai appears from it!

== Trivia ==
* Yuyama Kunihiko travelled to [[wp:Spain|Spain]] [[n:Pokémon movie screenwriter visits Spain|together with screenwriter Hideki Sonoda]] and composer Shinji Miyazaki, to various places including the [[wp:Sagrada Familia|Sagrada Família]] in [[wp:Barcelona|Barcelona]], to get ideas for the setting of the movie.
* The design of the Space-Time Tower is based on the Sagrada Família.
** The architect behind the Space-Time Tower is named Godey, and his descendant is named Tonio, both references to the architect of the Sagrada Família, [[wp:Antoni Gaudí|Antoni Gaudí]].
* Players who had pre-ordered tickets for the Japanese run could receive a {{p|Deoxys}}. In major cinemas, a {{p|Darkrai}} could be downloaded. Instructions on how to get Darkrai were provided before and after the feature presentation by Meowth.
* The number of Pokémon debuts in this movie is matched only by [[Mewtwo Strikes Back]], [[Spell of the Unown]] and [[Jirachi: Wish Maker]]; this is because these are the only movies to follow the beginning of a new generation. With the exception of the first movie (which was released more than two years after [[Generation I]] had debuted), no Pokémon were introduced in any of these three movies that could not be found in the games of the respective generation. Counting the corresponding Pikachu shorts, ''Mewtwo Strikes Back'' had 22 debuts (of which 3 were [[Generation II]] Pokémon), ''Spell of the Unown'' had 16 and ''Jirachi: Wish Maker'' had 14, or 15 if including {{p|Groudon}} as having a live debut. This movie had 18 debuts within itself, or 20 if considering {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}'s appearances as their live debuts.
* The following promotional cards were available. Each corresponds to a Pokémon film. The first 11 were bought as a set, complete with a gloss paper folder and protective sleeving, while Darkrai had to be obtained when purchasing a ticket.
:#Counter Attacking Mewtwo ('''逆襲のミュウツー''' ''Gyakushū no Myūtsū)
:#Rising Lugia ('''爆誕のルギア''' ''Bakutan no Rugia'')
:#Crystal Tower's Entei ('''結晶塔のエンテイ''' ''Kesshōtō Entei'')
:#Time-Traversing Celebi ('''時を超えたセレビィ''' ''Toki o Koeta Serebī'')
:#Water City's Latias ('''水の都ラティアス''' ''Mizu no Miyako Ratiasu'')
:#Water City's Latios ('''水の都ラティオス''' ''Mizu no Miyako Ratiosu'')
:#Seven Nights Jirachi ('''七夜のジラーチ''' ''Nanayo no Jirāchi'')
:#Split Sky Visitor Deoxys ('''裂空の訪問者デオキシス''' ''Rekkū no Hōmonsha Deokishisu'')
:#Tree of Beginning's Mew ('''はじまりの樹のミュウ''' ''Hajimari no Ki no Myū'')
:#Wave Hero Lucario ('''波導の勇者ルカリオ''' ''Hadō no Yūsha Rukario'')
:#Prince of the Sea Manaphy ('''蒼海の王子マナフィ''' ''Umi no Ōji Manafi'')
:#Darkrai Lv. 50 ('''ダークライ Lv.50''' ''Dākurai Lv.50'')
*Five minor characters from other movies make a cameo appearance in this movie. A man and his daughter, who were briefly seen with {{p|Aipom}} in the beginning of [[Pokémon Heroes]], are given a similar appearance alongside {{p|Chimecho}} and {{p|Chingling}}. The hippie from [[Jirachi: Wish Maker]], where he sold {{an|May}} her Wishing Star, sells {{an|Dawn}} a [[Lunar Wing]] charm. Finally, the mother and girl that were reading the legend of [[Rota]] in the beginning of [[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]], are seen buying cotton candy.
*This is one of the few movies without a human antagonist. The two others are [[Destiny Deoxys]] and [[Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]].
*On the wall that features Alicia in the center of the Space-Time Tower, there are many Pokémon and their counterparts on the opposite side of Alicia. They are: Solrock and Lunatone, Dustox and Beautifly, Gallade and Gardevoir, Volbeat and Illumise, Zangoose and Seviper, Electivire and Magmortar, Plusle and Minun, Leafeon and Glaceon, and the two variants of Gastrodon.

The Subspace Emissary

2008-02-01T01:01:08Z

Pokemon12345: /* Lucario */

{{Upcoming notice}}
'''The Subspace Emissary''' (Japanese: '''亜空の使者''' ''The Subspace Emissary'') is a single-player game that is contained within [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]. It is a side-scrolling action game with a storyline that is said to emphasize character development. Most of the playable characters are protagonists, including {{p|Pikachu}}, [[Red (game)|Pokémon Trainer]] and {{p|Lucario}}.

The characters form teams based on the developments of the story. Masahiro Sakurai has stated that most hidden characters are unlocked by simply playing through The Subspace Emissary and, indeed, Lucario is unlocked in this fashion. A second player can join at any time, though the camera will focus on player one.

In order to obtain trophies of the enemies in this game, the player must throw a Trophy Stand at them. This acts just like a [[Poké Ball]] as it 'captures' the opponent when they are at low health. It also works against bosses, such as {{p|Rayquaza}}.

==Known plot==
[[Image:Lucario Metaknight.jpg|right|thumb|Lucario's team.]]
[[Image:Brawl Boss Rayquaza.jpg|right|thumb|A boss fight against Rayquaza.]]
Led by a being known as the Ancient Minister, the Subspace Army's plan is to cut apart the world and carry it into Subspace. This is achieved by two R.O.B.s detonating a Subspace Bomb and the minions known as Primid attacking anyone who resists. Now everyone must join together to stop this threat.

===Pikachu===
Pre-release footage has shown Pikachu alongside Samus.

===Pokémon Trainer===

===Lucario===
In a snowy area, Metaknight and the Ice Climbers encounter Lucario. After a fight that unlocks Lucario, he joins their team. Lucario is also the one to find Snake.

===Rayquaza===
Separated from DK, Diddy comes across a lake with a burning Arwing spaceship at the shore. Rayquaza emerges from the water and captures Diddy but then Fox jumps out of the ship and makes a dramatic rescue. What happens from there is yet to be seen but it is known that there will be a fight against Rayquaza and interference from Bowser.

The two share a special moment. [[Zoey]] and [[Kenny]] are shown in front of the Staircase of Light.

A much bigger Chibi Jessilina screams in their faces, scaring them away. Meanwhile, Ash, Brock, and Dawn are chasing a group of {{p|Butterfree}} in the sunset.

Bicycle

2008-01-21T14:24:14Z

Pokemon12345:

[[Image:Ash riding Misty'sJPG|200px|thumb|right|[[Ash]] riding [[Misty|Misty's]] bike in [[EP001]].]]
A '''Bicycle''' is a [[key item]] obtained in the games to facilitate [[Transportation in Pokémon|faster movement]]. [[Cycling Road]] can only be navigated on while cycling.

==In Kanto and Johto==
[[Image:Bike.png|left|thumb|A sprite of a bike in the games.]]
In [[Generation I]], their [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen|Generation III remakes]], and [[Generation II]], there is only one type of bicycle. It is sold by the Bike Shop ([[Miracle Cycle]] in the original Japanese versions) located in [[Cerulean City]] (in Kanto), and in [[Goldenrod City]] (in Johto). It is the most basic type of bicycle in all the games, as it only provides faster transportation. There are no obstacles that can be passed only with the bicycle, except [[Cycling Road]] in [[Kanto]], which cannot be entered without one.

==In Hoenn==
In [[Hoenn]], there are actually two types of bicycles: the Mach Bike and the Acro Bike. They are both obtained for free in [[Rydel's Cycles]] in Mauville City, and can be changed for the other at any time after one is originally obtained. However, the player may only have one type of bicycle at a time.

This is the first generation to introduce [[bike obstacles]].

===Mach Bike===
[[Image:DPBicycle.jpg|thumb|right|[[Ash]], [[Brock]], and [[Dawn (anime)|Dawn]] riding their bikes]]
This type of bicycle allows players to move a lot faster than the previous models of bicycles. It can move fast enough to ride straight up a muddy slope, or over weak ground without falling through. If the player collides with something, all momentum gained is lost and the speed resets. This is the faster of the two bikes found in Hoenn. On [[Seaside Cycling Road]], a player's time and number of collisions while riding this bike from the northern entrance to the southern exit is timed and recorded. This is part of the data sent over to other players when records are swapped.

===Acro Bike===
[[Image:Wheelie.PNG|thumb|right|[[Brendan]] doing a wheelie with the Acro Bike.]]
This type of bicycle travels at the same speed as the original models of bicycles, but it also allows players to perform tricks, such as the wheelie or the bunny hop, that let players reach special areas, like climbing up rocks on [[Route 112]]. It can also be used for traveling on white rails found on [[Route 119]] and in the [[Hoenn Safari Zone]]. The following is a list of tricks that are able to be done with this bike:
* Hold B button (less than 2 sec.): standing wheelie
* Hold B button (more than 2 sec.): bunny hop
* Hold B, then D-pad: wheelie or bunny hop
* B+D-pad direction (perpendicular to direction of travel): sideways hop

==In Sinnoh==
In [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl]], there is again a single model of bicycle, but it is different from the regular one in that it has two gears. The differences between the two gears, which can be changed by pressing the B button, are similar to the differences between both types of Hoenn-exclusive bikes, as there is a fast gear that allows players to travel up muddy slopes, and a slower gear for easier turning. The only difference is that the slower gear isn't made for performing tricks (though it is capable of crossing narrow rails). It is obtained after the player saves the owner of Rad Rickshaw's Cycle Shop from [[Team Galactic]] in [[Eterna City]]. Diamond and Pearl also introduce [[bike obstacles|bike ramps]]. In the basements of both [[Oreburgh Gate]] and [[Wayward Cave]], as well as on [[Route 227]], trainers can jump over a bike ramp to reach a certain area that would otherwise be blocked. The distance that the bike can jump depends on what gear it is in.

==Trivia==
[[Image:Misty with her bike.JPG|200px|thumb|right|[[Misty]] with her burnt bike.]]
A [[wp:running gag|running joke]] in the [[anime]] seems to be that every time [[Ash]] meets up with a new female [[Ash's friends|traveling partner]], [[Ash's Pikachu|his Pikachu]] ends up destroying her bike.

Zoey's Glameow

'''Zoey's Glameow''' (Japanese: '''ノゾミのニャルマー''' ''Nozomi's Nyarmar'') was [[Zoey]]'s first [[Pokémon]] seen in the [[Pokémon anime|anime]]. Its voice actress in both Japanese and English is 大谷育江 ''[[Ikue Ohtani]]''.

Glameow was first seen in ''[[DP011|Mounting a Coordinator Assault]]'' when it approached [[Dawn (anime)|Dawn]] with her missing choker around its tail. But it wasn't until the [[DP012|next episode]] that it showed just how strong it really was. During the [[Jubilife City|Jubilife]] contest, it managed to take out [[Dawn's Aipom|Ash's Aipom]], [[Dawn's Buneary]], and [[Jessie]]'s borrowed [[James's Carnivine|Carnivine]], earning Zoey the Jubilife Ribbon. Later on it was revealed that it defeated [[Kenny's Prinplup]] as well.

Glameow's only loss seen in the anime was against a wild [[Ash's Buizel|Buizel]] which was later captured by [[Dawn (anime)|Dawn]].

Glameow seems to be Zoey's signature Pokémon, similar to the way [[Drew's Roselia|Roselia]] is to [[Drew]].

==Moves used==
*{{m|Shadow Claw}}
*{{m|Iron Tail}}

==Trivia==
In ''[[DP034|Buizel Your Way Out of This]]'', 西村ちなみ ''Chinami Nishimura'' voiced Glameow. Nishimura was previously voicing [[Johanna's Glameow]].

Glameow appears to be the family's pet. However, when Johanna was a [[Pokémon Coordinator]], she used her in her entries and got into the Grand Festival with her.

==Moves used==
While she likely knows many moves, as she has not yet been seen in battle or in a contest, the moves she knows are unknown.

'''Dawn's Ambipom''' (Japanese: '''ヒカリのエテボース''' ''Hikari's Eteboth''). Originally an {{p|Aipom}}, she is the only Pokémon to be captured by [[Ash Ketchum]] in [[Pokémon: Battle Frontier|the Battle Frontier saga]]. Much later, she was traded to {{an|Dawn}} in exchange for {{TP|Ash|Buizel}}. Her Japanese voice actress is 佐藤智恵 ''[[Chie Satō]]''. As an Aipom, she was voiced by 伊東みやこ ''[[Miyako Itō]]'' in both English and Japanese.

==History==
Aipom was first seen in ''[[AG178|Slaking Kong]]'', worshiping a giant, mechanical {{p|Slaking}}. However, she also stole [[Ash's hat]], much like [[Ash's Primeape]]. Aipom soon reappeared in ''[[AG179|May, We Harley Drew'd Ya!]]'', stealing the hats of the participants before making off with Ash's hat again. In ''[[AG181|Channeling the Battle Zone]]'', Ash finally captured her.

In ''[[AG182|Aipom and Circumstance]]'', Aipom became jealous of [[Ash's Pikachu]]'s closeness to Ash. Aipom also seems to have a certain penchant for headgear; aside from taking Ash's and other participants' hats, Aipom wore a daisy chain on her head and put on a ceremonial crown that the locals had trouble getting off. Aipom's gender was confirmed in the Japanese version of ''Aipom and Circumstance''; while Aipom was nearby gathering flowers, {{an|May}} said, 「エイパムやっぱり女の子ね？」 ''Aipom is a girl after all, isn't she?''. In [[DP048]], Dawn also explicitly calls Aipom a girl, and in the dub of ''[[DP039|Steamboat Willies]]'', both Aipom and {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}} are referred to as girls, confirming them to be female.

[[Image:Ash_aipom.jpg|left|thumb|As an Aipom]]
Ambipom enjoys participating in [[Pokémon Contest]]s. Her interest was first perked in ''[[AG180|Thinning the Hoard]]'' where she took an interest in May's battle with Harley. Aipom also watched her battle with Drew before enticing Ash into catching her. In ''[[DP011|Mounting a Coordinator Assault]]'', Aipom was entered into her first contest with Ash. They got through the Appeal Round but lost the first battle round to [[Zoey]] and [[Zoey's Glameow|her Glameow]]. In [[DP022]], Aipom entered an unofficial contest under the command of [[Jessie]] and won against [[Dawn's Pachirisu]]. Zoey suggested that Ash give Aipom to Dawn.

While Ash had Aipom, she usually sat on his left shoulder when outside of her Poké Ball, in contrast to Pikachu sitting on his right shoulder.

In order to bring back [[Ash's Torkoal|Torkoal]] to battle [[Pyramid King Brandon|Brandon]]'s {{p|Registeel}}, Ash sent Aipom to [[Professor Oak]], where Aipom had quite a bit of trouble adjusting to the new environment and lack of Ash. However, after Ash's second defeat, Aipom returned.

[[Image:Hikari's Eipam.jpg|thumb|right|Dawn and Aipom]]
When Ash left for [[Sinnoh]], leaving all his Pokémon but [[Ash's Pikachu|Pikachu]] behind as he did when leaving for [[Hoenn]], Aipom snuck aboard the boat he was traveling on to accompany him on his new journey. During her journey through Sinnoh, Aipom has defeated [[Ash's Chimchar|Paul's Chimchar]] in battle and helped Ash capture his [[Ash's Staravia|Starly]]. Ash also used her in his first two Gym battles in the region.

Aipom put up a fight against [[Roark's Cranidos]] in Ash's first match, however, she lost. In their rematch she fought {{p|Geodude}}. she also fought in Ash's second Gym Battle as well, going against [[Gardenia]]'s {{p|Roserade}}, which resulted in a victory, giving Ash his [[Badge#Forest Badge|Forest Badge]].

In [[DP055]], Ash began the training for his next Gym battle in [[Veilstone City]]. However, [[Ash's Buizel|Dawn's Buizel]] seemed to be more interested in Ash's battle training and thus couldn't set its mind on Dawn's training; meanwhile Ash's Aipom appeared to have a similar problem in Ash's training because it tended to be more interested in Dawn's Contest training. Then [[Zoey]] proposed that Ash and Dawn trade them. After some soul-searching, the trainers agreed, and the trade took place. Even after being traded it is noticeble that Ambipom and Ash still have maintained a good relationship.

In [[DP060]], Aipom managed to learn {{m|Double Hit}}. [[Kenny (Sinnoh)|Kenny]] appeared and told Dawn that {{p|Aipom}} would evolve soon. Later in the episode, when Dawn was being attacked by a group of {{p|Unown}}, Aipom jumped in front of Dawn to protect her and evolved into {{p|Ambipom}}.

* {{m|Double Hit}}

==Trivia==
[[Image:Satoshitoeipam.jpg|right|thumb|Ash and Aipom.]]
*For [[DP014]], [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Aipom. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about her: エイパムが　しっぽでつかむ　サトシのハート ''Eipam, it seizes with its tail, Satoshi's heart.''
*Aipom's habit of taking Ash's hat mimics the actions of [[Ash's Primeape]], who coincidentally was also a primate.
*Aipom is one of the few Pokémon on the show to have its gender explicitly stated via dialog multiple times, including the dub of ''[[DP039|Steamboat Willies]]''
*Aipom is the fourth Pokémon to take Ash's hat, the first being [[Ash's Primeape|Primeape]], then [[Ash's Pikachu|Pikachu]] and third, {{an|Latias}}.
*Aipom is one of the few main characters' Pokémon to be traded, along with [[Jessie's Lickitung]] and [[Ash's Butterfree]].
*Due to now being Dawn's Pokémon, Aipom is the only Pokémon owned by a main character that was introduced ''before'' the character.
*Ambipom is the first of Dawn's Pokémon to evolve.
*Ambipom is the first traded Pokémon in the anime to evolve.
*Ambipom is the first non-{{cat|Generation IV Pokémon}} in the anime to evolve into a Generation IV Pokémon.
*Aipom took as many episodes to evolve as another Pokémon that had a crush on Ash: {{TP|Ash|Bayleef}}. They are both {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} as well.

Ash's Pikachu

'''Ash's Pikachu''' (Japanese: '''サトシのピカチュウ''' ''Satoshi's Pikachu'') was the first [[Pokémon]] obtained by [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]] on his journey as a [[Pokémon trainer]]. His universal voice actress is 大谷育江 ''[[Ikue Ohtani]]''. However, in some episodes during the first season of the English dub, [[Rachael Lillis]] provided his voice when the original Japanese track couldn't be saved.

==In the anime==

===History===
[[Image:Ashs 1st pokeball.JPG|thumb|left|Pikachu's [[Poké Ball]], which has a special lightning bolt mark]]
In the first episode of the Pokémon [[anime]], ''[[EP001|Pokémon, I Choose You!]]'', Ash woke up late the day he was supposed to go to [[Professor Oak|Professor Oak's]] laboratory to obtain his first Pokémon. When he arrived at the lab, the three available starter Pokémon, {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, and {{p|Squirtle}} had already been taken by other trainers who arrived earlier. Seeing that Ash was disappointed, Professor Oak gave him Pikachu, which did not take a liking to his new trainer. He refused to go into a [[Poké Ball]], and when Ash failed to catch a wild Pokémon, he laughed at him. However, by the end of the episode, Ash gained Pikachu's trust by protecting him from an attack by a flock of {{p|Spearow}} and rushing him to the [[Pokémon Center]]. Pikachu and Ash soon became inseparable. In ''[[EP039|Pikachu's Goodbye]]'', Ash gave Pikachu his consent to remain in a forest filled with Pikachu, but Pikachu returned to Ash's side.

In general, Pikachu as a species are not particularly powerful, but Ash's Pikachu is an anomaly, overcoming odds in battle numerous times. In ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'', he defeated [[Brock's Onix]] with an [[Electric (type)|Electric]] attack when Onix was drenched in water, despite Onix being naturally resistant to electricity. In ''[[EP014|Electric Shock Showdown]]'', Pikachu fought [[Lt. Surge|Lt. Surge's]] {{p|Raichu}} and lost. During a resulting hospital stay, he refused to become Raichu's equal by evolving via a [[Thunderstone]], and in the second battle, Pikachu overcame Raichu by using his superior speed. In ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]'', [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]] remarked that Pikachu's power "far exceeds its evolutionary level." Ash's Pikachu has also defeated very high level Pokémon that Ash's other Pokémon were unable to, such as {{p|Dragonite}} and {{p|Metagross}}. He has helped Ash win innumerable battles and [[Gym]] and [[Pokémon League|League]] matches.

[[image:PikachuDP.png|thumb|left|Ash's Pikachu]]
Pikachu is extremely loyal to Ash, and while he is not always immediately trusting of strangers, he is generally friendly to humans and Pokémon alike. He acted as a guardian and big sibling to [[Misty's Togetic|Misty's Togepi]], and he has been seen mediating and even breaking up fights among other Pokémon, such as in ''[[Pikachu's Vacation]]''. In ''[[Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', him, [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]], and Meowth's clone were the only Pokémon not to participate in the giant battle; he stood motionless as his clone repeatedly slapped his face.

Since his first encounter with [[Team Rocket]] in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]'', Pikachu has been pursued by the trio of [[Jessie]], [[James]], and [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]]. He has been Jessie, James and Meowth's ambition at stealing this Pokémon from Ash and wanting to present him to [[Giovanni|their boss]]. To do this, they devised many attempts and devised many evil plans and came up with many scams and many other terrible schemes to fulfill that task. Jessie, James and Meowth try, try, and try some more, but despite trying hard at pulling the evil deed, every last one of their fiendish and conniving efforts and evil plans failed each time. Either their plans were stopped by Ash and his friends and/or every other trainer Ash and his friends assisted throughout the series, including the [[Officer Jenny|Officer Jennies]] in general.

As shown in a handful of episodes, the first being ''[[EP042|Showdown at Dark City]]'', Pikachu has a special fondness for ketchup, but he will eat and enjoy almost any other human or Pokémon food. A running joke in the anime also seems to be the destruction of a female character's [[bike]] with one of Pikachu's {{m|Thunderbolt}}s at the beginning of each series, which then causes her to [[Ash's friends|follow Ash]] for the remainder of the series. This has happened to [[Misty]], [[May (anime)|May]], and [[Dawn (anime)|Dawn]] so far.

Pikachu is the primary mascot of the Pokémon franchise, mostly due to Ash's ownership of him. He appears on nearly all merchandise and promotional material for the series, and became, due to the anime, the [[version mascot]] of and only [[starter Pokémon]] in [[Pokémon Yellow]].

Pikachu became the second non-legendary to defeat a [[legendary Pokémon]] in the anime after [[Ash's Charizard|Charizard]], beating [[Pyramid King Brandon|Brandon's]] {{p|Regice}} in ''[[AG189|Pace - The Final Frontier]]'', giving Ash his final Frontier Symbol.

Pikachu was also the only Pokémon to come with Ash to [[Hoenn]], and just the same one of only two Pokémon to join Ash on his journey to [[Sinnoh]]. It is worth noting that Ash tried to bring only Pikachu again but [[Ash's Aipom|Aipom]] snuck on board the ship. Up until the capture of [[Dawn's Pachirisu]], Pikachu was the only {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon in the anime owned by a main character.

In Hoenn, Pikachu learned how to surf. He also learned how to box from Ash in ''[[EP029|The Punchy Pokémon]]''.

Pikachu has taken part in Ash's first Sinnoh Gym Battle. He went against [[Roark]]'s [[Roark's Rampardos|Cranidos]] after [[Ash's Aipom|Aipom]] was defeated. After being switched out, he fought {{p|Onix}}, whom Pikachu was defeated by. At Ash's rematch, Pikachu defeated {{p|Onix}}, and then fought {{p|Rampardos}}.

(Moves that have been used most recently are italicized)

==In the games==
Pikachu was one of [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]]'s three Pokémon in [[Pokémon Puzzle League]]. [[Red's Pikachu]] in [[Pokémon Yellow]] also seems to be based off of him.

==In the manga==
Pikachu has appeared in two mangas based on the anime, namely ''[[Ash & Pikachu]]'' and ''[[Electric Tale of Pikachu]]''. In both, he was Ash's [[starter Pokémon]], much like the [[EP001|first anime episode]].

==Trivia==
*Pikachu is Ash's only {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon and was the only Electric-type owned by a main character in the anime until the capture of [[Dawn's Pachirisu]].
*Some of Pikachu's speech is consistent enough that it seems that some phrases actually mean something. For instance, Pikachu always uses "Pikapi" when referring to Ash (notice that it sounds somewhat similar to "Satoshi"). Other speech includes:
**PikaPikachu: ''My name is Pikachu''. When Ash and his friends are introducing theirselves to the [[characters-of-the-day]], he says this.
**Pikachu-pi: ''[[Misty|Kasumi-chan]]'' (Misty)
**Pika-chu: ''[[Brock|Takeshi]]'' (Brock)
**PiPiPi: ''[[Misty's Togetic|Togepy]]'' (Togepi)
**Pikakapika: ''[[Ash's Bulbasaur|Fushigidane]]'' (Bulbasaur)
**Pikapika: ''[[Ash's Squirtle|Zenigame]]'' (Squirtle)
**PiPikachu: ''[[Team Rocket|Rocket-dan]]'' (Team Rocket). He also says this after Ash wins a badge, catches a new Pokémon or anything similar.
**Chu-Pika: (Iron Tail). He says this when using {{m|Iron Tail}}.
**Pika-chuuuuuuuu: (Thunderbolt). He says this when using {{m|Thunderbolt}}.
**Specific names for [[Tracey Sketchit|Tracey]], {{an|May}}, [[Max]], and {{an|Dawn}} have not been heard.
*For ''[[DP013|A Staravia is Born]]'', [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Ash's Pikachu. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about him: パートナー　サトシとピカチュウ　いいかんじ ''Partners Satoshi and Pikachu: a pleasant feeling''.
*Because there is no indent on Pikachu's tail, many cite this as proof that it is indeed male. Some also site a crush that [[Dawn's Buneary]], who appears to be female, has on Pikachu as proof. Though in the pilot episode, as Pikachu is being attacked by an army of Spearow, Ash yells for the spear to "leave him alone". *Out of all five regions that Ash visited, [[Kanto]] and [[Hoenn]] are the only ones that Ash started out with just Pikachu. He did try to go to [[Sinnoh]] with Pikachu alone but Aipom followed him. At the beginning of each, Pikachu was also, in some way, injured, and ended up destroying the [[bike]] of a girl who would later travel with Ash.
*Throughout the series the yellowish color of Pikachu has become lighter and Pikachu's body has become more slender.
*Pikachu has never been seen defeating any of [[Gary Oak|Gary's]] Pokémon.
*As hard as it may seem to believe now, Pikachu was the first of Ash's Pokémon to disobey him. Other Pokémon that would do so, and be better remembered for their disobedience than Pikachu, are [[Ash's Primeape|Primeape]] and [[Ash's Charizard|Charizard]].

In ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'', he defeated [[Brock's Onix]] with an [[Electric (type)|Electric]] attack when Onix was drenched in water, despite Onix being naturally resistant to electricity. In ''[[EP014|Electric Shock Showdown]]'', Pikachu fought [[Lt. Surge|Lt. Surge's]] {{p|Raichu}} and lost. During a resulting hospital stay, he refused to become Raichu's equal by evolving via a [[Thunderstone]], and in the second battle, Pikachu overcame Raichu by using his superior speed. In ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]'', [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]] remarked that Pikachu's power "far exceeds its evolutionary level." Ash's Pikachu has also defeated very high level Pokémon that Ash's other Pokémon were unable to, such as {{p|Dragonite}} and {{p|Metagross}}. He has helped Ash win innumerable battles and [[Gym]] and [[Pokémon League|League]] matches.

[[image:PikachuDP.png|thumb|left|Ash's Pikachu]]
Pikachu is extremely loyal to Ash, and while he is not always immediately trusting of strangers, he is generally friendly to humans and Pokémon alike. He acted as a guardian and big sibling to [[Misty's Togetic|Misty's Togepi]], and he has been seen mediating and even breaking up fights among other Pokémon, such as in ''[[Pikachu's Vacation]]''. In ''[[Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', him, [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]], and Meowth's clone were the only Pokémon not to participate in the giant battle; he stood motionless as his clone repeatedly slapped his face.

Since his first encounter with [[Team Rocket]] in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]'', Pikachu has been pursued by the trio of [[Jessie]], [[James]], and [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]]. He has been Jessie, James and Meowth's ambition at stealing this Pokémon from Ash and wanting to present him to [[Giovanni|their boss]]. To do this, they devised many attempts and devised many evil plans and came up with many scams and many other terrible schemes to fulfill that task. Jessie, James and Meowth try, try, and try some more, but despite trying hard at pulling the evil deed, every last one of their fiendish and conniving efforts and evil plans failed each time. Either their plans were stopped by Ash and his friends and/or every other trainer Ash and his friends assisted throughout the series, including the [[Officer Jenny|Officer Jennies]] in general.

As shown in a handful of episodes, the first being ''[[EP042|Showdown at Dark City]]'', Pikachu has a special fondness for ketchup, but he will eat and enjoy almost any other human or Pokémon food. A running joke in the anime also seems to be the destruction of a female character's [[bike]] with one of Pikachu's {{m|Thunderbolt}}s at the beginning of each series, which then causes her to [[Ash's friends|follow Ash]] for the remainder of the series. This has happened to [[Misty]], [[May (anime)|May]], and [[Dawn (anime)|Dawn]] so far.

Pikachu is the primary mascot of the Pokémon franchise, mostly due to Ash's ownership of him. He appears on nearly all merchandise and promotional material for the series, and became, due to the anime, the [[version mascot]] of and only [[starter Pokémon]] in [[Pokémon Yellow]].

Pikachu became the second non-legendary to defeat a [[legendary Pokémon]] in the anime after [[Ash's Charizard|Charizard]], beating [[Pyramid King Brandon|Brandon's]] {{p|Regice}} in ''[[AG189|Pace - The Final Frontier]]'', giving Ash his final Frontier Symbol.

Pikachu was also the only Pokémon to come with Ash to [[Hoenn]], and just the same one of only two Pokémon to join Ash on his journey to [[Sinnoh]]. It is worth noting that Ash tried to bring only Pikachu again but [[Ash's Aipom|Aipom]] snuck on board the ship. Up until the capture of [[Dawn's Pachirisu]], Pikachu was the only {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon in the anime owned by a main character.

In Hoenn, Pikachu learned how to surf. He also learned how to box from Ash in ''[[EP029|The Punchy Pokémon]]''.

Pikachu has taken part in Ash's first Sinnoh Gym Battle. He went against [[Roark]]'s [[Roark's Rampardos|Cranidos]] after [[Ash's Aipom|Aipom]] was defeated. After being switched out, he fought {{p|Onix}}, whom Pikachu was defeated by. At Ash's rematch, Pikachu defeated {{p|Onix}}, and then fought {{p|Rampardos}}.

==In the games==
Pikachu was one of [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]]'s three Pokémon in [[Pokémon Puzzle League]]. [[Red's Pikachu]] in [[Pokémon Yellow]] also seems to be based off of him.

==In the manga==
Pikachu has appeared in two mangas based on the anime, namely ''[[Ash & Pikachu]]'' and ''[[Electric Tale of Pikachu]]''. In both, he was Ash's [[starter Pokémon]], much like the [[EP001|first anime episode]].

==Trivia==
*Pikachu is Ash's only {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon and was the only Electric-type owned by a main character in the anime until the capture of [[Dawn's Pachirisu]].
*Some of Pikachu's speech is consistent enough that it seems that some phrases actually mean something. For instance, Pikachu always uses "Pikapi" when referring to Ash (notice that it sounds somewhat similar to "Satoshi"). Other speech includes:
**PikaPikachu: ''My name is Pikachu''. When Ash and his friends are introducing theirselves to the [[characters-of-the-day]], he says this.
**Pikachu-pi: ''[[Misty|Kasumi-chan]]'' (Misty)
**Pika-chu: ''[[Brock|Takeshi]]'' (Brock)
**PiPiPi: ''[[Misty's Togetic|Togepy]]'' (Togepi)
**Pikakapika: ''[[Ash's Bulbasaur|Fushigidane]]'' (Bulbasaur)
**Pikapika: ''[[Ash's Squirtle|Zenigame]]'' (Squirtle)
**PiPikachu: ''[[Team Rocket|Rocket-dan]]'' (Team Rocket). He also says this after Ash wins a badge, catches a new Pokémon or anything similar.
**Chu-Pika: (Iron Tail). He says this when using {{m|Iron Tail}}.
**Pika-chuuuuuuuu: (Thunderbolt). He says this when using {{m|Thunderbolt}}.
**Specific names for [[Tracey Sketchit|Tracey]], {{an|May}}, [[Max]], and {{an|Dawn}} have not been heard.
*For ''[[DP013|A Staravia is Born]]'', [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Ash's Pikachu. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about him: パートナー　サトシとピカチュウ　いいかんじ ''Partners Satoshi and Pikachu: a pleasant feeling''.
*Because there is no indent on Pikachu's tail, many cite this as proof that it is indeed male. Some also site a crush that [[Dawn's Buneary]], who appears to be female, has on Pikachu as proof. Though in the pilot episode, as Pikachu is being attacked by an army of Spearow, Ash yells for the spear to "leave him alone". *Out of all five regions that Ash visited, [[Kanto]] and [[Hoenn]] are the only ones that Ash started out with just Pikachu. He did try to go to [[Sinnoh]] with Pikachu alone but Aipom followed him. At the beginning of each, Pikachu was also, in some way, injured, and ended up destroying the [[bike]] of a girl who would later travel with Ash.
*Throughout the series the yellowish color of Pikachu has become lighter and Pikachu's body has become more slender.
*Pikachu has never been seen defeating any of [[Gary Oak|Gary's]] Pokémon.
*As hard as it may seem to believe now, Pikachu was the first of Ash's Pokémon to disobey him. Other Pokémon that would do so, and be better remembered for their disobedience than Pikachu, are [[Ash's Primeape|Primeape]] and [[Ash's Charizard|Charizard]].

'''Ash's Pikachu''' (Japanese: '''サトシのピカチュウ''' ''Satoshi's Pikachu'') was the first [[Pokémon]] obtained by [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]] on his journey as a [[Pokémon trainer]].

===History===
[[Image:Ashs 1st pokeball.JPG|thumb|left|Pikachu's [[Poké Ball]], which has a special lightning bolt mark]]
In the first episode of the Pokémon [[anime]], ''[[EP001|Pokémon, I Choose You!]]'', Ash woke up late the day he was supposed to go to [[Professor Oak|Professor Oak's]] laboratory to obtain his first Pokémon. When he arrived at the lab, the three available starter Pokémon, {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, and {{p|Squirtle}} had already been taken by other trainers who arrived earlier. Seeing that Ash was disappointed, Professor Oak gave him Pikachu, which did not take a liking to his new trainer. He refused to go into a [[Poké Ball]], and when Ash failed to catch a wild Pokémon, he laughed at him. However, by the end of the episode, Ash gained Pikachu's trust by protecting him from an attack by a flock of {{p|Spearow}} and rushing him to the [[Pokémon Center]]. Pikachu and Ash soon became inseparable. In ''[[EP039|Pikachu's Goodbye]]'', Ash gave Pikachu his consent to remain in a forest filled with Pikachu, but Pikachu returned to Ash's side.

In general, Pikachu as a species are not particularly powerful, but Ash's Pikachu is an anomaly, overcoming odds in battle numerous times.

[[Image:Ashs 1st pokeball.JPG|thumb|left|Pikachu's [[Poké Ball]], which has a special lightning bolt mark]]
In the first episode of the Pokémon [[anime]], ''[[EP001|Pokémon, I Choose You!]]'', Ash woke up late the day he was supposed to go to [[Professor Oak|Professor Oak's]] laboratory to obtain his first Pokémon. When he arrived at the lab, the three available starter Pokémon, {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, and {{p|Squirtle}} had already been taken by other trainers who arrived earlier. Seeing that Ash was disappointed, Professor Oak gave him Pikachu, which did not take a liking to its new trainer. It refused to go into a [[Poké Ball]], and when Ash failed to catch a wild Pokémon, it laughed at him. However, by the end of the episode, Ash gained Pikachu's trust by protecting it from an attack by a flock of {{p|Spearow}} and rushing it to the [[Pokémon Center]]. Pikachu and Ash soon became inseparable. In ''[[EP039|Pikachu's Goodbye]]'', Ash gave Pikachu his consent to remain in a forest filled with Pikachu, but Pikachu returned to Ash's side.

In general, Pikachu as a species are not particularly powerful, but Ash's Pikachu is an anomaly, overcoming odds in battle numerous times. In ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'', it defeated [[Brock's Onix]] with an [[Electric (type)|Electric]] attack when Onix was drenched in water, despite Onix being naturally resistant to electricity. In ''[[EP014|Electric Shock Showdown]]'', Pikachu fought [[Lt. Surge|Lt. Surge's]] {{p|Raichu}} and lost. During a resulting hospital stay, it refused to become Raichu's equal by evolving via a [[Thunderstone]], and in the second battle, Pikachu overcame Raichu by using its superior speed. In ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]'', [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]] remarked that Pikachu's power "far exceeds its evolutionary level." Ash's Pikachu has also defeated very high level Pokémon that Ash's other Pokémon were unable to, such as {{p|Dragonite}} and {{p|Metagross}}. It has helped Ash win innumerable battles and [[Gym]] and [[Pokémon League|League]] matches.

[[image:PikachuDP.png|thumb|left|Ash's Pikachu]]
Pikachu is extremely loyal to Ash, and while it is not always immediately trusting of strangers, it is generally friendly to humans and Pokémon alike. It acted as a guardian and big sibling to [[Misty's Togetic|Misty's Togepi]], and it has been seen mediating and even breaking up fights among other Pokémon, such as in ''[[Pikachu's Vacation]]''. In ''[[Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', it, [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]], and Meowth's clone were the only Pokémon not to participate in the giant battle; it stood motionless as its clone repeatedly slapped its face.

Since its first encounter with [[Team Rocket]] in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]'', Pikachu has been pursued by the trio of [[Jessie]], [[James]], and [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]]. It has been Jessie, James and Meowth's ambition at stealing this Pokémon from Ash and wanting to present it to [[Giovanni|their boss]]. To do this, they devised many attempts and devised many evil plans and came up with many scams and many other terrible schemes to fulfill that task. Jessie, James and Meowth try, try, and try some more, but despite trying hard at pulling the evil deed, every last one of their fiendish and conniving efforts and evil plans failed each time. Either their plans were stopped by Ash and his friends and/or every other trainer Ash and his friends assisted throughout the series, including the [[Officer Jenny|Officer Jennies]] in general.

As shown in a handful of episodes, the first being ''[[EP042|Showdown at Dark City]]'', Pikachu has a special fondness for ketchup, but it will eat and enjoy almost any other human or Pokémon food. A running joke in the anime also seems to be the destruction of a female character's [[bike]] with one of Pikachu's {{m|Thunderbolt}}s at the beginning of each series, which then causes her to [[Ash's friends|follow Ash]] for the remainder of the series. This has happened to [[Misty]], [[May (anime)|May]], and [[Dawn (anime)|Dawn]] so far.

Pikachu is the primary mascot of the Pokémon franchise, mostly due to Ash's ownership of it. It appears on nearly all merchandise and promotional material for the series, and became, due to the anime, the [[version mascot]] of and only [[starter Pokémon]] in [[Pokémon Yellow]].

Pikachu became the second non-legendary to defeat a [[legendary Pokémon]] in the anime after [[Ash's Charizard|Charizard]], beating [[Pyramid King Brandon|Brandon's]] {{p|Regice}} in ''[[AG189|Pace - The Final Frontier]]'', giving Ash his final Frontier Symbol.

Pikachu was also the only Pokémon to come with Ash to [[Hoenn]], and just the same one of only two Pokémon to join Ash on his journey to [[Sinnoh]]. It is worth noting that Ash tried to bring only Pikachu again but [[Ash's Aipom|Aipom]] snuck on board the ship. Up until the capture of [[Dawn's Pachirisu]], Pikachu was the only {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon in the anime owned by a main character.

In Hoenn, Pikachu learned how to surf. It also learned how to box from Ash in ''[[EP029|The Punchy Pokémon]]''.

Pikachu has taken part in Ash's first Sinnoh Gym Battle. It went against [[Roark]]'s [[Roark's Rampardos|Cranidos]] after [[Ash's Aipom|Aipom]] was defeated. After being switched out, it fought {{p|Onix}}, whom Pikachu was defeated by. At Ash's rematch, Pikachu defeated {{p|Onix}}, and then fought {{p|Rampardos}}.

==In the games==
Pikachu was one of [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]]'s three Pokémon in [[Pokémon Puzzle League]]. [[Red's Pikachu]] in [[Pokémon Yellow]] also seems to be based off of it.

==In the manga==
Pikachu has appeared in two mangas based on the anime, namely ''[[Ash & Pikachu]]'' and ''[[Electric Tale of Pikachu]]''. In both, it was Ash's [[starter Pokémon]], much like the [[EP001|first anime episode]].

==Trivia==
*Pikachu is Ash's only {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon and was the only Electric-type owned by a main character in the anime until the capture of [[Dawn's Pachirisu]].
*Some of Pikachu's speech is consistent enough that it seems that some phrases actually mean something. For instance, Pikachu always uses "Pikapi" when referring to Ash (notice that it sounds somewhat similar to "Satoshi"). Other speech includes:
**PikaPikachu: ''My name is Pikachu''. When Ash and his friends are introducing theirselves to the [[characters-of-the-day]], it says this.
**Pikachu-pi: ''[[Misty|Kasumi-chan]]'' (Misty)
**Pika-chu: ''[[Brock|Takeshi]]'' (Brock)
**PiPiPi: ''[[Misty's Togetic|Togepy]]'' (Togepi)
**Pikakapika: ''[[Ash's Bulbasaur|Fushigidane]]'' (Bulbasaur)
**Pikapika: ''[[Ash's Squirtle|Zenigame]]'' (Squirtle)
**PiPikachu: ''[[Team Rocket|Rocket-dan]]'' (Team Rocket). It also says this after Ash wins a badge, catches a new Pokémon or anything similar.
**Chu-Pika: (Iron Tail). It says this when using {{m|Iron Tail}}.
**Pika-chuuuuuuuu: (Thunderbolt). It says this when using {{m|Thunderbolt}}.
**Specific names for [[Tracey Sketchit|Tracey]], {{an|May}}, [[Max]], and {{an|Dawn}} have not been heard.
*For ''[[DP013|A Staravia is Born]]'', [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Ash's Pikachu. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about it: パートナー　サトシとピカチュウ　いいかんじ ''Partners Satoshi and Pikachu: a pleasant feeling''.
*Because there is no indent on Pikachu's tail, many cite this as proof that it is indeed male. Some also site a crush that [[Dawn's Buneary]], who appears to be female, has on Pikachu as proof. However, because all Pikachu prior to [[Generation IV]] lacked an indented tail, this is not concrete proof. Though in the pilot episode, as Pikachu is being attacked by an army of Spearow, Ash yells for the spear to "leave her alone". Additionally, the gender of Dawn's Buneary is not confirmed.
*Out of all five regions that Ash visited, [[Kanto]] and [[Hoenn]] are the only ones that Ash started out with just Pikachu. He did try to go to [[Sinnoh]] with Pikachu alone but Aipom followed him. At the beginning of each, Pikachu was also, in some way, injured, and ended up destroying the [[bike]] of a girl who would later travel with Ash.
*Throughout the series the yellowish color of Pikachu has become lighter and Pikachu's body has become more slender.
*Pikachu has never been seen defeating any of [[Gary Oak|Gary's]] Pokémon.
*As hard as it may seem to believe now, Pikachu was the first of Ash's Pokémon to disobey him. Other Pokémon that would do so, and be better remembered for their disobedience than Pikachu, are [[Ash's Primeape|Primeape]] and [[Ash's Charizard|Charizard]].

Brock's Croagunk

'''Brock's Croagunk''' (Japanese: '''タケシのグレッグル''' ''Takeshi's Gureggru'') was the first [[Pokémon]] [[Brock]] [[captured Pokémon|captured]] in the [[Sinnoh]] [[region]], and the ninth overall. Its Japanese voice actor is 小西克幸 ''[[Katsuyuki Konishi]]'' and its English voice actor is [[Bill Rogers]].

Croagunk was first seen resting outside a supermarket. When [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]] emerged from it, Croagunk followed him to where [[Team Rocket]] was using a fake [[gym]] to steal unsuspecting [[Pokémon trainer|trainers]]' Pokémon. While their plan was going badly, as it required [[Jessie]] to win, and her [[Jessie's Dustox|Dustox]] kept losing, she decided to use Croagunk and soon won many [[Pokémon battle|battles]].

After [[Ash Ketchum]] and [[Ash's friends|his friends]] entered the gym, Croagunk lost against [[Ash's Aipom]]. Team Rocket resorted to grabbing [[Ash's Pikachu]] and running off, leaving Croagunk behind in the process. Brock was the first to notice Croagunk, and feeling a connection, Croagunk later willingly went into Brock's [[Poké Ball]].

Like [[Brock's Sudowoodo|Brock's Bonsly]], Croagunk has attacked Brock in order to continue the series' running gag of keeping Brock away from the girls who are the objects of his affection. When doing this, it usually uses {{m|Poison Jab}}, which usually makes Brock suddenly collapse so Croagunk can easily drag Brock away. However, when Brock pledged to save [[Oralie|Oralie's]] Magikarp and [[Haley|Haley's]] Feebas, Croagunk jabbed Brock, which caused [[Dawn (anime)|Dawn]] to remark that Croagunk may have gone too far. Many fans think Croagunk could be jealous or possessive.

It has some unique characterization, as it acted alone many times. Its actions were sometimes part of an episode plot. It has a unique fighting style, as shown in ''[[DP014|Leave It To Brocko]]'', by defeating [[Jessie's Seviper|Seviper]] by repeatedly using {{m|Brick Break}} while Seviper was using {{m|Bind}} on it, eventually ending in a draw.

Croagunk has been shown to have its own pace for things like eating, attacking, or following Brock. Similar to [[Ash's Sceptile|Ash's Treecko]], it is also a bit of a loner, preferring to sit alone when eating or just resting. In ''[[DP032|An Angry Combeenation]]'', it didn't like the sweet taste of [[honey]], which may imply its [[nature]] is brave, relaxed, quiet or sassy. This makes sense, considering a nature which dislikes sweet flavors has a lowered amount of [[stats#Speed|speed]].

It is a very powerful Pokémon, as demonstrated in its debut episode where it beat many trainers while it was under the command of [[Jessie]]. It has since become Brock's main battling Pokémon and has proved its power again and again. It seems to have a rivalry developing with one of the other strength-oriented Pokémon on the cast, [[Dawn's Buizel]].

It also has good hearing, as it could hear [[Dawn's Buneary|Buneary]] in the bush in ''[[DP009|Setting the World on its Buneary]]'' and Team Rocket sneaking into Oreburgh Gym in ''[[DP018|O'er the Rampardos we Watched]]''. It is sometimes aware of many strange or some unusual situations; in [[DP043]], it literally saves the day when it jabs Brock and saves him from Mismagius's illusions. This may be due to the fact it has the {{a|Anticipation}} ability, which warns of the foes super-effective moves.

It also can do a remarkable impression of a {{p|Politoed}}, as seen in ''[[DP033|All Dressed up with Somewhere to Go]]'', where its convincing [[Pokémon cosplay|cosplay]] and acting won a Pokémon Cosplay Competition.

==Moves used==
* {{m|Poison Sting}}
* {{m|Poison Jab}}
* {{m|Brick Break}}

==Trivia==
* According to the [[Pokétch]], Croagunk is very close to Brock. In fact, Croagunk is about as close to Brock as Pikachu is to Ash.
* Croagunk is the first {{type2|Fighting}} Pokémon owned by Brock.
* Croagunk's only known losses are against [[Ash's Aipom]] and [[Paul's Torterra]]. It fought [[Jessie's Seviper]] to a draw when both Pokémon fainted.
* It should be noted that when Croagunk uses {{m|Poison Jab}} on its opponents, its "fingers" fully glow with poison. However when it uses it on Brock, only the tips of its fingers glow possibly meaning that it doesn't use nearly as much poison on Brock as it would an adversary.
*Judging the location of Croagunk's bandage on it's stomach, it is most likely male, but isn't confirmed.

Dawn's Ambipom

'''Ash's Aipom''' (Japanese: '''サトシのエイパム''' ''Satoshi's Eipam'') is the only Pokémon to be captured by [[Ash Ketchum]] in [[Pokémon: Battle Frontier]]; she was captured on the [[Indigo Plateau]]. She is voiced by 伊東みやこ ''[[Miyako Itō]]''.

Aipom was first seen in ''[[AG178|Slaking Kong]]'', worshipping a giant, mechanical {{p|Slaking}}. However, she also stole [[Ash's hat]], much like [[Ash's Primeape]]. Aipom soon reappeared in ''[[AG179|May, We Harley Drew'd Ya!]]'', stealing the hats of the participants before making off with Ash's hat again. In ''[[AG181|Channeling the Battle Zone]]'', Ash finally captured her.

In ''[[AG182|Aipom and Circumstance]]'', Aipom became jealous of [[Ash's Pikachu]]'s closeness to Ash. Aipom also seems to have a certain penchant for headwear; aside from taking Ash's and other participants' hats, Aipom wore a daisy chain on her head and put on a ceremonial crown that the locals had trouble getting off. Aipom's gender was confirmed in the Japanese version of ''Aipom and Circumstance''; while Aipom was nearby gathering flowers, [[May (anime)|May]] said, 「エイパムやっぱり女の子ね？」 ''Aipom is a girl after all, isn't she?''. In [[DP048]], [[Dawn (anime)|Dawn]] also explicitly calls Aipom a girl.

Aipom enjoys participating in Pokémon Contests. Her interest was first perked in ''[[AG180|Thinning the Hoard]]'' where she took an interest in May's battle with Harley. Aipom also watched her battle with Drew before enticing Ash into catching her. In ''[[DP011|Mounting a Coordinator Assault]]'', Aipom was entered into its first contest with Ash. They got through the Appeal Round but lost the first battle round to [[Zoey]] and her {{p|Glameow}}. In [[DP022]], Aipom entered an unofficial contest under the command of [[Jessie]] and won against [[Dawn's Pachirisu]]. Zoey suggested that Ash give Aipom to Dawn but so far this has not happened.

[[Image:Ash_aipom.jpg|left|thumb|Aipom with a flower crown]]

Aipom, when out of the [[Poké Ball]], usually sits on Ash's left shoulder, in contrast to Pikachu sitting on his right shoulder.

In order to bring back [[Ash's Torkoal|Torkoal]] to battle [[Brandon]]'s {{p|Registeel}}, Ash sent Aipom to [[Professor Oak]], where Aipom had quite a bit of trouble adjusting to the new environment and lack of Ash. However, after Ash's second defeat, Aipom returned.

When Ash left for [[Sinnoh]], leaving all his Pokémon but [[Ash's Pikachu|Pikachu]] behind as he did when leaving for [[Hoenn]], Aipom snuck aboard the boat he was traveling on to accompany him on his new journey.

During its journey through Sinnoh, Aipom has defeated [[Paul's Chimchar]] in battle and helped Ash capture his [[Ash's Staravia|Starly]]. Ash also used her in both of his [[gym]] battles.

Aipom put up a fight against [[Roark]]'s {{p|Cranidos}} in Ash's first match, however, she lost. In their rematch she fought {{p|Geodude}}. she also fought in Ash's second Gym Battle as well, going against [[Gardenia]]'s {{p|Roserade}}, which resulted in a victory, giving Ash his [[Badge#Forest Badge|Forest Badge]].

==Moves used==
* {{m|Swift}}
* {{m|Focus Punch}}
* {{m|Double Team}}
* {{m|Fury Swipes}}
* {{m|Scratch}}

==Trivia==
*For [[DP014]], [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Ash's Aipom. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about it: エイパムが　しっぽでつかむ　サトシのハート ''Eipam, it seizes with its tail, Satoshi's heart.''
*Aipom's habit of taking Ash's hat mimics the actions of [[Ash's Primeape]], who coincidentally was also a primate.
*Aipom is one of the few Pokémon on the show to have it's gender explicitly stated via dialog multiple times.

'''Arceus''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''アルセウス''' ''Arseus'') is the last [[Legendary Pokémon]] of [[Generation IV]] and the final Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by National Dex number|National Pokédex]] as of that generation.

Arceus is known as "The Original One," as it is said that it created the universe and [[Palkia (Pokémon)|Palkia]], [[Dialga (Pokémon)|Dialga]], and the [[Lake trio]]. The only known way to get Arceus is with the Azure Flute (also known as The Key of Space and Time).
Arceus has not yet been officially revealed.

=Biology=
==Physiology==
Arceus is an equine being that may be based on a horse-like mammal or qilin. Its body is white and has gold hooves attached to its four legs. Its mane is quite long and its face is green. It also has a cross-like wheel attached to its body, which changes color based on Arceus' current type.

===Gender differences===
Arceus is genderless, as it is the only one of its species.

===Special abilities===
While Arceus may be a pure {{T|Normal}}-type, due to Arceus's Multi-Type ability allows for its type to change into any of the other 16 types depending on what type of special plate it holds.

Arceus's signature move, {{m|Judgment}}, also changes its type depending on the type of special plate Arceus is holding. This means that if Arceus uses Judgement, it will always get [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]]. Therefore, Judgement effectively has a power of 150 if used by Arceus. However, it is possible for another Pokémon to use Judgement through {{m|Metronome}}, and that Pokémon wouldn't get STAB unless they were holding a plate corresponding to their type.

==Behavior==
==Habitat==
Arceus lives at the [[Hall of Origin]] which can only be accessed by use of the [[Azure Flute]] at the Spear Pillar.

==Diet==

=Trivia=
*At level 80, Arceus is the highest level non-glitch Pokémon available for capture.
*By statistical average, Arceus is the strongest Pokémon yet.
*The code for Diamond and Pearl has sprites for Arceus using its Multitype ability with all 18 types, including {{type2|???}}. It is disputed whether the ???-type Arceus is obtainable.
*Although Arceus is considered the Creation Pokémon, it cannot learn all of the TMs and HMs like {{p|Mew}} can.
*Even though it is said that it created the world with its thousand arms, it cannot learn any TMs nor HMs that uses arms or punches.
*Like {{p|Giratina}}, Arceus is speculated to be the third counterpart of {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}, thus the [[version mascot]] of the third game.
*According to some, Arceus is catchable in the North America and European versions of [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl]] with the help of the [[Tweaking]] [[glitch]], however, this has yet to be confirmed.
==Origin==
Arceus may be a reference to the Chinese mythical creature, the [[wp:Qilin|Qilin]]. Its myth is nearly identical to that of the [[wp:Pangu|Pangu]], the Chinese creation deity.
===Name origin===
Arceus' name may come from the words ''arch'' (highest) and ''deus'', which is Latin and Greek for ''god''. It may also have a root in the Latin word ''arcanus'', which means ''secret; sacred mystery''.
Arceus' name may also come from the word ''archaic'' (ancient), which comes from the Greek ''arkhaios'' meaning the same thing.

'''Arceus''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''アルセウス''' ''Arseus'') is the last [[Legendary Pokémon]] of [[Generation IV]] and the final Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by National Dex number|National Pokédex]] as of that generation.

Arceus is known as "The Original One," as it is said that it created the universe and [[Palkia (Pokémon)|Palkia]], [[Dialga (Pokémon)|Dialga]], and the [[Lake trio]]. The only known way to get Arceus is with the Azure Flute (also known as The Key of Space and Time).
Arceus has not yet been officially revealed.

=Biology=
==Physiology==
Arceus is an equine being that may be based on a horse-like mammal or qilin. Its body is white and has gold hooves attached to its four legs. Its mane is quite long and its face is green. It also has a cross-like wheel attached to its body, which changes color based on Arceus' current type.

===Gender differences===
Arceus is genderless, as it is the only one of its species.

===Special abilities===
While Arceus may be a pure {{T|Normal}}-type, due to Arceus's Multi-Type ability allows for its type to change into any of the other 16 types depending on what type of special plate it holds.

Arceus's signature move, {{m|Judgment}}, also changes its type depending on the type of special plate Arceus is holding. This means that if Arceus uses Judgement, it will always get [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]]. Therefore, Judgement effectively has a power of 150 if used by Arceus. However, it is possible for another Pokémon to use Judgement through {{m|Metronome}}, and that Pokémon wouldn't get STAB unless they were holding a plate corresponding to their type.

==Behavior==
==Habitat==
Arceus lives at the [[Hall of Origin]] which can only be accessed by use of the [[Azure Flute]] at the Spear Pillar.

==Diet==

=Trivia=
*At level 80, Arceus is the highest level non-glitch Pokémon available for capture.
*By statistical average, Arceus is the strongest Pokémon yet.
*The code for Diamond and Pearl has sprites for Arceus using its Multitype ability with all 18 types, including {{type2|???}}. It is disputed whether the ???-type Arceus is obtainable.
*Although Arceus is considered the Creation Pokémon, it cannot learn all of the TMs and HMs like {{p|Mew}} can.
*Even though it is said that it created the world with its thousand arms, it cannot learn any TMs nor HMs that uses arms or punches.
*Like {{p|Giratina}}, Arceus is speculated to be the third counterpart of {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}, thus the [[version mascot]] of the third game.
*According to some, Arceus is catchable in the North America and European versions of [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl]] with the help of the [[Tweaking]] [[glitch]], however, this has yet to be confirmed.
==Origin==
Arceus may be a reference to the Chinese mythical creature, the [[wp:Qilin|Qilin]]. Its myth is nearly identical to that of the [[wp:Pangu|Pangu]], the Chinese creation deity.
===Name origin===
Arceus' name may come from the words ''arch'' (highest) and ''deus'', which is Latin and Greek for ''god''. It may also have a root in the Latin word ''arcanus'', which means ''secret; sacred mystery''.
Arceus' name may also come from the word ''archaic'' (ancient), which comes from the Greek ''arkhaios'' meaning the same thing.

'''Arceus''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''アルセウス''' ''Arseus'') is the last [[Legendary Pokémon]] of [[Generation IV]] and the final Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by National Dex number|National Pokédex]] as of that generation.

Arceus is known as "The Original One," as it is said that it created the universe and [[Palkia (Pokémon)|Palkia]], [[Dialga (Pokémon)|Dialga]], and the [[Lake trio]]. The only known way to get Arceus is with the Azure Flute (also known as The Key of Space and Time).
Arceus has not yet been officially revealed.

=Biology=
==Physiology==
Arceus is an equine being that may be based on a horse-like mammal or qilin. Its body is white and has gold hooves attached to its four legs. Its mane is quite long and its face is green. It also has a cross-like wheel attached to its body, which changes color based on Arceus' current type.

===Gender differences===
Arceus is genderless, as it is the only one of its species.

===Special abilities===
While Arceus may be a pure {{T|Normal}}-type, due to Arceus's Multi-Type ability allows for its type to change into any of the other 16 types depending on what type of special plate it holds.

Arceus's signature move, {{m|Judgment}}, also changes its type depending on the type of special plate Arceus is holding. This means that if Arceus uses Judgement, it will always get [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]]. Therefore, Judgement effectively has a power of 150 if used by Arceus. However, it is possible for another Pokémon to use Judgement through {{m|Metronome}}, and that Pokémon wouldn't get STAB unless they were holding a plate corresponding to their type.

==Behavior==
==Habitat==
Arceus lives at the [[Hall of Origin]] which can only be accessed by use of the [[Azure Flute]] at the Spear Pillar.

==Diet==

=Trivia=
*At level 80, Arceus is the highest level non-glitch Pokémon available for capture.
*By statistical average, Arceus is the strongest Pokémon yet.
*The code for Diamond and Pearl has sprites for Arceus using its Multitype ability with all 18 types, including {{type2|???}}. It is disputed whether the ???-type Arceus is obtainable.
*Although Arceus is considered the Creation Pokémon, it cannot learn all of the TMs and HMs like {{p|Mew}} can.
*Even though it is said that it created the world with its thousand arms, it cannot learn any TMs nor HMs that uses arms or punches.
*Like {{p|Giratina}}, Arceus is speculated to be the third counterpart of {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}, thus the [[version mascot]] of the third game.
*According to some, Arceus is catchable in the North America and European versions of [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl]] with the help of the [[Tweaking]] [[glitch]], however, this has yet to be confirmed.
==Origin==
Arceus may be a reference to the Chinese mythical creature, the [[wp:Qilin|Qilin]]. Its myth is nearly identical to that of the [[wp:Pangu|Pangu]], the Chinese creation deity.
===Name origin===
Arceus' name may come from the words ''arch'' (highest) and ''deus'', which is Latin and Greek for ''god''. It may also have a root in the Latin word ''arcanus'', which means ''secret; sacred mystery''.
Arceus' name may also come from the word ''archaic'' (ancient), which comes from the Greek ''arkhaios'' meaning the same thing.
