{{tt|'''Honey for Combee'''|VIZ Media}}/{{tt|'''VS. Combee'''|Chuang Yi}} (Japanese: '''VSミツハニー''' ''VS. {{tt|Mitsuhoney|Combee}}'' or '''花畑と甘い蜜''' ''{{tt|Flowerbed|Floaroma Meadow}}'' and ''{{tt|Sweet Honey|Honey}}'') is the 343rd round of the {{chap|Diamond & Pearl}} in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga.

==Plot==
{{adv|Pearl}} and {{adv|Diamond}} wake up at the beeping of their [[Pokédex|Pokédexes]], figuring out that {{adv|Platinum}} must be near them at the front door. Platinum announces that [[Floaroma Town]] is their next destination.

As they arrive, they admire the vast field of flowers blooming everywhere. Diamond and his {{p|Munchlax}} sniff something, and run off to a direction, knocking down a tree before they start licking the honey off of it. Pearl follows, warning Diamond that he is entering private property. Then, a young girl comes up and cries because they destroyed her precious tree that she had taken great care of. She had spread honey on the tree trunk because she wanted the {{p|Combee}} of the flower field to have it. Just as she said so, a mass of wild Combee fly up and sting the boys. Fearing that Platinum would make fun of them if she saw this, Pearl sends his {{p|Chatot}} to tell her to stay in a flower shop.

Diamond and Pearl then joke about [[Poké Ball|Poké Balls]] to cheer the girl up as an apology. The girl laughs, but is reluctant to forgive them. She explains that her father is going to come back soon and meet her at the tree. Then, her father's {{p|Drifloon}} floats in the sky to their direction, tired and worn out from carrying a tattered lab coat. The girl gets worried and says that her father is working at [[Valley Windworks]]. As she, Diamond, and Pearl go off to check things out, Platinum finds them and notices the girl crying. After Pearl explains where they were going, Platinum silently admires them for helping someone they just met by chance. As they arrive at the power plant, the girl becomes frightened by the unusually strong gusts of wind that the station converts into electricity. When they realize that the doors are locked, Pearl commands his {{p|Chimchar}} to burn down the lock. Once the door opens, a {{p|Bronzor}} creeps up in front of them.

'''{{tt|Extreme Luxio|VIZ Media}}/{{tt|VS. Luxio|Chuang Yi}}''' (Japanese: '''VSルクシオ''' ''VS. Luxio'' or '''ツッコミとリズム''' ''{{tt|Tsukkomi|Straight man}} and Rhythm'') is the 340th round of the {{chap|Diamond & Pearl}} in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga.

==Plot==
The chapter begins when {{adv|Platinum}}'s true body guards, [[Paka and Uji]], realize that there must have been a miscommunication, because Platinum had still not showed up to meet them at the time they planned. As a result, they rush off on their bikes to find Platinum. Meanwhile, as {{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}}, and Platinum head to [[Oreburgh City]], Platinum starts to trust Diamond and Pearl for acting as professional bodyguards when they protected her from a swarm of {{p|Bidoof}}, even when they are as young as her. Suddenly, a wild {{p|Luxio}} appears and growls at the boys, then quickly scampers off into the grass. Diamond and Pearl joke around, wondering why they have to call the girl that they're traveling with, "Lady".

Meanwhile, in Oreburgh Town, [[Professor Rowan]] has just arrived at the research labratory, and shows [[Roark]] his papers that support his thesis, which states that 90% of Pokémon are related to evolution. On the road, Platinum wonders if Pearl is smacking Diamond too hard during their comedy acts. Pearl laughs and states that the smacking is to strengthen the rhythm of their acts and to convey his feelings to Diamond. Just then, the wild Luxio appears again, along with a swarm of other wild Luxio and Shinx, and drags Platinum to their side. Diamond quickly realizes that it is an outcast that is trying to boast its fighting skills to the others in the group. Pearl discovers from the [[Pokédex]] that Luxio communicate with electrical pulses their paws, but the wild Luxio's claws are too short to communicate with the other Luxio. Pearl tells the wild {{p|Shinx}} that the Luxio's disability is no reason to reject it. After Pearl lifts up the Luxio's paw and smacks a Shinx in the group, the electrical pulse starts to run, resulting in happiness for the whole group. As the rest of the group leave, the wild Luxio nods at Pearl in gratitude, and runs off.

Pearl suddenly notices Platinum smacking herself in the head, and Pearl asks her if she was practicing his funny move. Platinum immediately denies, and silently thanks her grandfather for letting her learn new things in her adventure. The three of them then arrive at the Oreburgh Gate. The chapter ends when Paka and Uji arrive at the hotel where Platinum stayed last night.

==Major events==
*[[Paka and Uji]] start searching for {{adv|Platinum}}.
* The group is attacked by a {{p|Luxio}}.

==Plot==

{{p|Suicune}} appears behind [[Falkner]], getting the attention of {{p|Raikou}} and {{p|Entei}}, while preparing for an attack. As Falkner throws the [[Poké Ball]]s at Raikou and Entei, he senses Suicune, who dashes in and uses {{m|Bubble Beam}} to catch the Poké Balls. As the Bird Keeper tries to talk him into giving up, Falkner decides to capture all three Pokémon and comes up with a plan. Falkner orders {{p|Skarmory}} to use {{m|Steel Wing}} on Suicune, which manages to hit it, but one of its feathers breaks in the process. Falkner then throws multiple Poké Balls, all missing Suicune. The Bird Keeper questions him where he's aiming. As the Poké Balls come back, Falkner explains to him that the feathers attached to the Poké Balls gives them a boomerang like function. He explains about Skarmory's wings and feathers and how he used them in his plan. As Suicune watches as the Poké Balls fly around, it notices one coming towards it. However, Raikou and Entei come up and quickly destroy all the Poké Balls, joining Suicune on top of a rock. As Falkner watches this, Skarmory begins to fall as it lost its balance due to one of its feather having taken damage from earlier. As they are falling, a giant bubble surrounds them, which Falkner suspects to be from Suicune. Suicune, Raikou, and Entei start to have a discussion with Suicune telling them it did not find Ho-Oh at the [[Bell Tower|Tin Tower]]. Afterwards, they leave in different directions as Falkner and the Bird Keeper land on the ground. After the ordeal, Falkner throws one of the broken Poké Balls at the Bird Keeper and arrests him, showing his Police badge and his Gym Leader Badge. He puts him in handcuffs for trespassing and hunting in a protected zone for wild Pokémon. As the Bird Keeper begs to be released, Falkner ponders what the [[Legendary beasts|trio]] was doing, while he flies off to Violet City.

{{adv|Red}} arrives at [[Mt. Silver]] with Blue's Charizard. At the hot springs of the mountain, Sabrina receives a call from [[Lt. Surge]], who asks if her wrist is better. Afterwards, she asks him how his investigation is doing.

Lt. Surge starts telling her all the incidents reported in [[Johto]] being traced back to [[Team Rocket]], with the latest being around the [[Lake of Rage]]. He questions the incidents in which {{adv|Giovanni}} had left and that Team Rocket should have been dissolved, and concludes that someone is gathering former members of Team Rocket to wreak havoc with the team's name. As Lt. Surge enters a store named "Buns of Rage", he suspects it to be a normal shop until he hears something from the basement. Using his {{p|Raichu}} to make a hole, he jumps into it and discovers a factory. Wanting to discover the owner of the factory, he is introduced by the [[Masked Man]], who arrives from behind him. Lt. Surge sends out three of his {{p|Magneton}} to stop the Masked Man's movements. As he does this, the Masked Man asks him how he found the basement. Lt. Surge answers that since he is an expert on the {{type|Electric}}, he is sensitive to electric fields, so he could hear the faint sounds of the machines. The Masked Man calls out his {{p|Houndour}} to attack. Lt. Surge orders his Raichu to use his tail to stop the Houndour as he maximizes his electricity from the air, so that Lt. Surge can question the Masked Man. Before he can question him, multiple wild Houndour appeared around them. The Masked Man explains that his own Houndour had called the wild ones. As the Houndour howl, Lt. Surge and his Raichu are disabled of their movements. The Masked Man threatens to explain that Lt. Surge will meet the same fate as {{adv|Gold|two}} {{adv|Silver|kids}} from before. However, Lt. Surge reveals that he had set a timer on his suit. Since he was not able to capture his target within five minutes, it releases multiple of his Electrode to use {{m|Self-Destruct}}, making him escape. The Masked Man decides not to worry about him as he is an ex-member of Team Rocket. Afterwards, Lt. Surge, exhausted from the battle, heads to the Lake of Rage and notices some bubbling in the water, coming from something frozen on the bottom.

'''{{tt|A Flaaffy Kerfuffle|VIZ Media}}''' or '''{{tt|VS. Flaaffy|Chuang Yi}}''' (Japanese: '''VSモココ''' ''VS. {{tt|Mokoko|Flaaffy}}'') is the 119th round of the {{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}} in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga.

==Plot==
{{spoilers}}
{{adv|Crystal}} arrives at [[Violet City]] and heads to the [[Pokémon Center]]. She wants to send Chumee and the {{p|Victreebel}} she just caught to the [[Pokémon Storage System]], but unfortunately, she hears that the system is down. She then calls [[Professor Elm]] to let him know that she caught the {{p|Chikorita}} that escaped from his lab and named it [[Megaree]]. After the call, Professor Elm and {{adv|Professor Oak}} discuss the importance of the storage system.

Crystal stops by a river to rest. As she fills her canteen up with water, she notices a drifting motor boat with a {{P|Flaaffy}} and a {{p|Dunsparce}} that are hanging off from the edge, struggling to not fall into the water. The motor boat's engine suddenly turns on, and Crystal quickly hops in to save and capture the Pokémon. Megaree, however, stays on the shore.

Right after she jumps into the boat, Flaaffy and Dunsparce start attacking her. She fights back with Natee's {{m|Psychic}}, and captures the Flaaffy. She quickly look up Dunsparce's data in her [[Pokédex]], and realizes the Dunsparce is starting to escape by boring a hole in the boat. Thus, the boat starts to sink. As Dunsparce comes out of the boat, Crystal jumps up and kicks a [[Poké Ball]] at it.

After capturing Dunsparce, the Poké Ball falls down toward the water, but Megaree catches it with the large leaf on his head to prevent the Poké Ball from getting drenched. Then, Megaree himself falls into the river. With Natee's help, Crystal flew over, scoops up Megaree, and praises him for saving the Poké Ball with Dunsparce in it.

==Major events==
* {{Adv|Crystal}} finds out that she cannot transport Pokémon to {{adv|Professor Oak}} as the Pokémon Transporter is not working.
* Professor Oak and [[Professor Elm]] speed up repairs for the transporter.
* Crystal captures a {{p|Flaaffy}} and a {{p|Dunsparce}}.

==Plot==
{{spoilers}}
[[Professor Elm]] scolds {{adv|Professor Oak}} for not introducing him to Crystal, and disappointingly tells Chikorita that he cannot go with {{adv|Crystal}} on her adventure. Surprised and angry, Chikorita scratches Elm on the face and runs away to find Crystal. Meanwhile, Crystal is at {{rt|30|Johto}}, trying to capture a {{p|Victreebel}}. She tells [[Archy]] to use {{m|Ember}} when Chikorita suddenly appears in front, forcing Crystal to stop the attack. The Victreebel then uses Chikorita as a shield, seeing him as a way to escape. Crystal then tells {{DL|Crystal (Adventures)|Chumee}} to use {{m|Mean Look}}, finally capturing the Victreebel. Crystal is glad to be able to catch both the Victreebel and Chikorite, and tells Chikorita that she is going to send both of them to Professor Oak. However, Chikorita refuses and shows that he wants to stay with her. Crystal is happy to hear that, but she tells him that she cannot bring a Pokémon that is weak. Chikorita flexes his muscles, trying to look strong enough for Crystal.

Crystal releases Chikorita, but tells him that he has to battle with {{DL|Crystal (Adventures)|Monlee}}. Chikorita uses {{m|Razor Leaf}}, but he gets shocked when Monlee punches away the leaves that were released from Razor Leaf. Monlee then uses {{m|Mega Punch}} and breaks the ground. As the ground starts to give way, Chikorita hangs on tight. Once the shaking stops, Crystal smiles and tells Chikorita that no Pokémon had ever taken Monlee's Mega Punch in the face before. She tells him that he has the mega watts of courage, thus naming him [[Megaree]]. She shows the signature star on all the Pokémon in her [[Party|party]] and asks Chumee if she could give Mega her star pendant. Chumee agrees, making everyone happy.

Knowing of the goals we call "dreams".
The defeats in the evening rain will make me better,
even if my body does not yet appear strong.

Goodbye isn't a sad event because
as I walk away, you'll be waving your hands, smiling.
I extend my heart as I embrace the sky,
Trusting my confirmed desires.
I have the map of the future here!
Advance! Advance! Past you and the seven-colored rainbow
Ready Go! I'm ready!
I'm tightly grabbing your hand and taking you along.

I want to chase that sort of feeling of freedom
Running towards the galaxy like a dazzling star!
My heart's response changes as I aim for the light.
There will be no time for gloom, as that would repeat the past.
I continue to step towards the future.
Advance! Advance! Past you and the seven-colored rainbow
Ready Go! Here I am, dreaming!
With overflowing emotions!

Advance! Advance! Past you and the seven-colored rainbow
Ready Go! Farther!

Pokequesthero: /* Intro */

My name is Pokequesthero, and I am a fan of Pokémon. A favorite Pokémon of mine is [[Victini (Pokémon)|Victini]]. I wonder why they don't say [[Gotta Catch 'Em All!]] anymore, because you still have to do it to complete the [[Pokédex]], and I like that motto. Some of the anime opening theme songs sound really epic to me; my favorites are [[Battle Frontier (dub)|Battle Frontier]], [[Pokémon Johto]], [[Battle Cry - (Stand Up!)]], and [[Black and White (song)|Black and White]]. Some other songs I like are [[Can't Stop (Catchin' 'Em All)]], [[Kanto Pokérap]], [[Together Forever]], and [[Viridian City (song)|Viridian City]].

I'm a girl and live in the US. I started to become a fan of Pokémon when I was eleven, and I still like it now. I'm not totally obsessed with it, but I can't keep my hands off whatever is Pokémon-related. The rest of the page tells more about my PokéLife.

== Anime ==

I think the [[Pokémon anime]] is okay; watching it was how I first learned about some basic Pokémon stuff. I watched episodes on pokemon.com before realizing I could check out the three Indigo League boxed sets and the Orange Islands episodes from the library. After watching those episodes, I became obsessed with the [[Kanto]] region.

What I don't like about the anime is that [[Ash Ketchum]], the main character, is so rash and [[Iris (anime)|acts like a little kid]]. His voice, along with [[Misty (anime)|Misty's]] and some other characters, is kind of high-pitched. I always wonder where the [[Team Rocket trio]] always blasts off. [[Brock (anime)|Brock]] flirts with every pretty woman he meets.

Plus, it took me a long time to realize that no one ever ages or gets older. When I watched [[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]], Ash said that a whole year had passed since he last been to [[Viridian City]]. That made me want to think he is eleven years old. Then, I watched [[BW001|In the Shadow of Zekrom]] on pokemon.com and the narrator said he is STILL ten, and that made me all confused. This is a reason how I dislike the anime; "timeless" is how I put it.

The movies are good; I like how they are about [[Legendary Pokémon]]. My favorites are the Diamond and Pearl trilogy. I am looking forward to watching the newest [[M14|Black and White]] one, the one about [[Victini (M14)|Victini]], [[Reshiram (M14)|Reshiram]], and [[Zekrom (M14)|Zekrom]]. I just already read the new manga adaption to ''White: Victini and Zekrom'', and it was good. After all, I'd rather watch movies than episodes because of how epic they are.

== Manga ==

One time, when I was at the library, I went to the shelf where the Pokémon books are. I saw the first volume of [[Pokémon Adventures]], so checked it out without reading the blurb. It took me a few seconds to realize that it's read right to left. I looked at the adventure route map in the back and realized at least one Pokémon is battled with in each round.

'''{{tt|Stopping Sableye|VIZ Media}}/{{tt|VS Sableye|Chuang Yi}}''' (Japanese: '''VS ヤミラミ''' ''VS. {{tt|Yamirami|Sableye}}'') is the 395th round of the {{chap|Diamond & Pearl}} in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga.

==Synopsis==
In the [[Team Galactic HQ|Galactic Veilstone Building]], [[Charon]] tells about the importance of the [[Red Chain]], which controls {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}. He hopes that the capture of the [[Uxie (Pokémon)|knowledge]], [[Mesprit (Pokémon)|emotion]], and [[Azelf (Pokémon)|willpower]] Pokémon will become a success to create the Red Chain.

The scene shifts to {{adv|Diamond}}, who just arrived at [[Twinleaf Town]]. He heads to his house, with [[Roseanne]] and Sebastian following him. When he entered, he remembers his [[Johanna|mother]]'s happy reaction to his prize trip to [[Mt. Coronet]]. Diamond goes into his room and finds a new jacket along with a note that his mother left him. He puts on the jacket and reads the note. According to the note, his mother was at [[Lake Verity]]--a great lake where [[Team Galactic]] will drop its bomb and capture one of the Lake Guardians. Shocked, Diamond throws off his jacket and rushes out the door, in a hurry to warn his mother about the upcoming disaster.

Meanwhile, {{adv|Platinum}}, [[Maylene]], and [[Candice]] travel across the snowy mountains in order to reach [[Lake Acuity]]. Candice calls out her {{p|Abomasnow}}, and tells it to use {{m|Rock Climb}} to help them go over a mountain. Platinum tells about the time when her father said she went to the lake when she was little. The three of them arrive at Lake Acuity shortly afterwards.

Suddenly, a {{p|Sableye}} appears and attacks Maylene's {{p|Riolu}} with {{m|Shadow Sneak}}. Then, a {{p|Gastrodon}} comes up and traps Candice in a {{m|Mud Bomb}}. Candice realizes that the two Pokémon are actually trained and not from the wild. Finally, [[Jupiter]] reveals herself as the trainer of the Sableye and the Gastrodon.

==Major events==
* {{adv|Diamond}} arrives home and changes his clothes before learning his mother has been kidnapped and runs off to save her.
* {{adv|Platinum}}, [[Maylene]], and [[Candice]] are attacked by [[Jupiter]].

'''{{tt|A Flaaffy Kerfuffle|VIZ Media}}''' or '''{{tt|VS. Flaaffy|Chuang Yi}}''' (Japanese: '''VSモココ''' ''VS. {{tt|Mokoko|Flaaffy}}'') is the 119th round of the {{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}} in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga.

==Synopsis==
[[Crystal (Adventures)|Crystal]] arrives at [[Violet City]] and heads to their [[Pokémon Center]]. She wants to send Chumee and the [[Victreebel (Pokémon)|Victreebel]] she just caught to the [[Pokémon Storage System]], but hears that the system is down. So she calls [[Professor Elm]] to let him know that she caught the [[Chikorita (Pokémon)|Chikorita]] that escaped from his lab and named it [[Megaree]]. After the call, Professor Elm and [[Professor Oak (Adventures)|Professor Oak]] discuss about how important the storage system is.

Crystal stops by a river to rest. As she fills her canteen up with water, she notices a drifting motor boat with a [[Flaaffy (Pokémon)|Flaaffy]] and a [[Dunsparce (Pokémon)|Dunsparce]] that are hanging off from the edge, struggling to not fall into the water. The motor boat's motor suddenly turns on, and Crystal quickly hops in to save and capture the Pokémon. Megaree, however, stays on the shore.

Right after she jumps into the boat, Flaaffy and Dunsparce start attacking her. She fights back with Natee's [[Psychic (move)|Psychic]], and captures the Flaaffy. She quickly look up Dunsparce's data in her [[Pokédex]], and realizes the Dunsparce wants to escape by boring a hole in the boat. Thanks to Dunsparce, the boat starts to sink. As Dunsparce hops out of the boat, Crystal jumps up and kicks a [[Poké Ball]] at it.

After capturing Dunsparce, the Poké Ball falls down toward the water. But Megaree catches it to prevent it from getting drenched. Then, Megaree himself falls into the river. With Natee's help, Crystal flew over, scoops up Megaree, and praises him for saving the Poké Ball with Dunsparce in it.

==Major events==
* {{Adv|Crystal}} finds out that she cannot transport Pokémon to {{adv|Professor Oak}} as the Pokémon Transporter is not working.
* Professor Oak and [[Professor Elm]] speed up repairs for the transporter.
* Crystal captures a [[Flaaffy (Pokémon)|Flaaffy]] and a [[Dunsparce (Pokémon)|Dunsparce]].

Pokequesthero: /* Anime */

My name is Pokequesthero, and am a fan of Pokémon. My favorite Pokémon is [[Pikachu (Pokémon)|Pikachu]]. I really don't know why they don't say [[Gotta Catch 'Em All!]] anymore, because you still have to do it to complete the [[Pokédex]], and I like that motto. I also like the anime opening theme songs; my favorites are [[Battle Frontier (dub)|Battle Frontier]], [[Pokémon Johto]], [[Battle Cry - (Stand Up!)]], and [[Black and White (song)|Black and White]]. Some other songs I like are [[Can't Stop (Catchin' 'Em All)]], [[Kanto Pokérap]], [[Together Forever]], and [[Viridian City (song)|Viridian City]].

I'm a girl and live in the US. When I was eleven, my best friend suddenly became a "Pokémon maniac", as she called herself. We played with her Pokémon plush toys, and watched episodes and movies on her computer. I wanted to learn more about Pokémon, and because of that, became a fan myself. The rest of the page tells more about my PokéLife.

== Anime ==

I think the [[Pokémon anime]] is okay; watching it was how I first learned about some basic Pokémon stuff. I watched episodes on pokemon.com before realizing I could check out the three Indigo League boxed sets and the Orange Islands episodes from the library. After watching those episodes, I became obsessed with the [[Kanto]] region.

What I don't like about the anime is that [[Ash Ketchum]], the main character, is so rash and [[Iris (anime)|acts like a little kid]]. His voice, along with [[Misty (anime)|Misty's]] and some other characters, is kind of high-pitched. I always wonder where the [[Team Rocket trio]] always blasts off. [[Brock (anime)|Brock]] flirts with every pretty woman he meets.

Plus, it took me a long time to realize that no one ever ages or gets older. When I watched [[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]], Ash said that a whole year had passed since he last been to [[Viridian City]]. That made me want to think he is eleven years old. Then, I watched [[BW001|In the Shadow of Zekrom]] on pokemon.com and the narrator said he is STILL ten, and that made me all confused. This is a reason how I dislike the anime; "timeless" is how I put it.

The movies are good; I like how they are about [[Legendary Pokémon]]. My favorites are the Diamond and Pearl trilogy. I am looking forward to watching the newest [[M14|Black and White]] one, the one about [[Victini (M14)|Victini]], [[Reshiram (M14)|Reshiram]], and [[Zekrom (M14)|Zekrom]]. I just already read the new manga adaption to ''White: Victini and Zekrom'', and it was good. After all, I'd rather watch movies than episodes because of how epic they are.

== Manga ==

One time, when I was at the library, I went to the shelf where the Pokémon books are. I saw the first volume of [[Pokémon Adventures]], so checked it out without reading the blurb. It took me a few seconds to realize that it's read right to left. I looked at the adventure route map in the back and realized at least one Pokémon is battled with in each round.

Pokémon.com online games

2012-04-23T00:39:43Z

Pokequesthero: /* Intro */

The official Pokémon website, [[Pokémon.com]], hosts twenty-six Pokémon-related '''online games''' that can be played on one of two sites. Up until 2010, only six games were available, with four being accessible in the fun zone directly and the other two being hidden; following a revamp of the site in January 2010, three new games were launched, with ten others being released later. The six previous games were later made available on an archive site, which has since been removed. The new games, which are available at the Fun Zone section of Pokémon.com, will earn successful players Trainer Tokens. These games are English adaptations of games originally found on the Japanese Daisuki Club site.

==Current games==
These games can be found at Pokémon.com, in the Fun Zone section. They have been available since January 11, 2010, unless otherwise noted.

===Turtwig's Target Smash!===
[[File:Turtwig Target Smash.png|300px|thumb|Turtwig's Target Smash!]]
'''Turtwig's Target Smash!''' is one of the currently available games. In this game, the player is a {{p|Turtwig}} on a wooden platform using {{m|Energy Ball}} to smash targets while avoiding the blocks. The amount of points for each hit depends on the times power used on the targets and the amount of targets broken within one Energy Ball. When more targets are hit, the times power will raise. It will also go down and will drop down to lower times power unless more targets are hit. Like other online games found on Pokémon.com after the revamp, Turtwig's Target Smash! gives the player Trainer Tokens the first time they reach 50,000 points, and every time they earn 150,000 points. At the end of the game, Turtwig will use {{m|SolarBeam}} to blast all of the remaining targets. The game lasts 100 seconds.

====Types of Targets====
* The red target: This target is a basic target. When hit at times 1 power it will give 30 points. There is no countdown to the target disappearing.
* The green target: This target is like the red target, but offers 150 points when hit at times 1 power and has a countdown to it disappearing.
* The gold target: This target is smaller than a green target, and offers 300 points when hit at times 1 power and has a countdown to disappearing, which is even smaller than the green target's.

===Pachirisu's Click-Clack Attack!===
[[File:Pachirisu Click Clack Attack.png|300px|thumb|left|Pachirisu's Click-Clack Attack!]]
'''Pachirisu's Click-Clack Attack!''' is game featuring {{p|Pachirisu}}. Here, there are a bunch of Pokémon disks, which should be hit into holes. More points are received when more than one Pokémon in the same evolutionary line are in the same hole. If two Pokémon in the evolutionary line hit each other when they aren't in a hole, they will fuse into the Pokémon's evolution. For example, if two {{p|Budew}} were to hit each other, they would fuse into a {{p|Roselia}}. If that Roselia hits another Budew, they will then fuse into a {{p|Roserade}}. Evolved Pokémon are worth more points than unevolved Pokémon. During a couple of rounds, the player must put every Pokémon into a hole in one shot. During others, a {{p|Lucario}} covered with stars will appear. If the Lucario goes into a hole, a bunch of stars will appear near it. This will temporarily raise the amount of points received from hitting a Pokémon into that hole.

====Pokémon that appear====
*{{p|Azurill}}, {{p|Marill}}, and {{p|Azumarill}}
*{{p|Budew}}, {{p|Roselia}}, and {{p|Roserade}}
*{{p|Machop}}, {{p|Machoke}}, and {{p|Machamp}}
*{{p|Pichu}}, {{p|Pikachu}}, and {{p|Raichu}}
*{{p|Lucario}}

===Munchlax's Berry Bonanza!===
[[File:Munchlax Berry Bonanza.png|300px|thumb|Munchlax's Berry Bonanza!]]
'''Munchlax's Berry Bonanza!''' is another online game, this time revolving around {{p|Munchlax}}. In this game, the player tries to match [[berry|berries]] of the same kind. When three or more are put together, they will disappear and the player will earn points. If the player manages to match many of these berries, rarer berries will appear. When matched, these will get the player more points. The later in the game the berries are matched, the more points the player will receive. The player has 100 berries. The game will end when the screen a berry comes above the screen or if all 100 berries are used. If there are eight or less berries on the field, Munchlax will jump and make eleven more berries fall to fill the puzzle up more with a 3,000-point bonus. Trainer Tokens are given when the player first earns over 10,000 points, and whenever they earn over 50,000 points.

====Berries seen====
* {{b|Oran}}
* {{b|Pecha}}
* {{b|Sitrus}}
* {{b|Wiki}}
* {{b|Aguav}}
* {{b|Cornn}}
* {{b|Tamato}}

===Shiftry's Big Seed Fling!===
[[File:Shiftry Big Seed Fling.png|300px|thumb|left|Shiftry's Big Seed Fling!]]
'''Shiftry's Big Seed Fling!''' is another online game featuring {{p|Shiftry}}. In this game, the player picks from three seeds to fling as high as the player can. The player is allowed ten flings which can be improved by either clicking on a green leaf or having the seed hit the leaf. The red leaves can be made in contact in the same way as the green leaves, but with a different function: the distance is enhanced. The game ends as soon as the seed is off the screen in any position other than the up position. Top scores are dependent on how high the seed went.

This game was made available at February 21, 2010, but was removed shortly after due to a gaming malfunction. The cause of the glitch was remedied, and the game is now online once more.

===Chatot's Chime-Time Challenge!===
[[File:Chatot Chime Time Challenge.png|300px|thumb|Chatot's Chime-Time Challenge!]]
'''Chatot's Chime-Time Challenge''' is a game where the player needs to copy the exact rhythm a {{p|Chatot}} plays. First, they get to listen to Chatot's rhythm. Then, they get three seconds to memorize. After this, the player will have to play the exact rhythm Chatot plays, with only three errors being allowed and only one chance to listen to it again, with another three seconds to memorize it again. There is also a meter on the right of the screen. If the player gets a score of either Good!, Great!, or Excellent!, they get to play a special bonus challenge. In this challenge, the player has to click as many lit-up buttons as they can before the meter drops down to the bottom. This game was added to the site on March 31, 2010.
{{-}}

===Medicham's Balance Bounce!===
[[File:Medicham Balance Bounce.png|300px|thumb|left|Medicham's Balance Bounce!]]
'''Medicham's Balance Bounce''' is a game where the player must bounce the {{p|Meditite}} or {{p|Medicham}} on one platform while balancing a {{p|Voltorb}} on the other. If the Voltorb falls off or the Meditite/Medicham goes near the bottom platform, it will blow up. If Meditite or Medicham is bounced depends on whether the player decides to choose the easy mode or the challenging mode. If the former is chosen, the player bounces a Meditite. If the latter is chosen, Medicham will instead be bounced. The biggest difference between the easy mode and the challenging mode other than the Pokémon bounced is that on the challenging mode, a star, a skull, or a diamond will occasionally fall down. If the player hits the star, they gain 500 points. If they hit the skull, they lose 500 points. However, if they hit the diamond, they gain what is known in the game as a sparkle bonus, which is a large amount of points. If the player chooses the challenging mode, on the right of the screen, how many of each the player hit will be seen. Every minute, the top platform will shrink, and every two minutes, the bottom platform will shrink. This game was added to the site on May 18, 2010.

===Drifloon's Fill & Float!===
[[File:Drifloon Fill and Float.png|300px|thumb|Drifloon's Fill & Float!]]
Made available June 11, 2010, '''Drifloon's Fill & Float''' involves the player trying to make the biggest soap bubble that they can, while avoiding balloons so that they don't get popped. This game is set in the sky. To make the bubble appear, the player must click somewhere in the screen, and not release the mouse unless they want the bubble to stop growing and let it go. On the right of the screen is a gauge known as the bubble meter. It shows how much soap is left. If it runs out the games end. There are two extra bubbles, one that slightly refills the bubble meter and another that freezes the balloons. A {{p|Drifloon}} icon also appears, which makes the balloons temporarily disappear. Trainer Tokens are received when the player first reaches 1,000 points and every time they reach 120,000 points after that.

===Eevee's Tile Trial!===
[[File:Eevee Tile Trial.png|300px|thumb|left|Eevee's Tile Trial!]]
'''Eevee's Tile Trial!''', released July 9, 2010, is a game reminiscent of a {{wp|sliding puzzle}} in which players must slide tiles around and align three of the same tiles in a row or column to earn as much points as they can within approximately three minutes. There are three types of tiles, corresponding to each of {{p|Eevee}}'s original evolutions: {{t|Water}}, {{t|Electric}}, and {{t|Fire}}. When the player lines up three of the same type of tile, the tiles disappear from the board, earning the player points. At the beginning of the game, the player must choose one of the three types. If he or she focuses on clearing more tiles of that type, then {{p|Eevee}} will evolve, resulting in an Evolution Bonus in which the player is awarded 10,000 points. A Trainer Token is also awarded the first time the player reaches 15,000 points in the game, as well as each time the player manages to get Eevee to evolve. Periodically throughout the game, a row or column will be outlined in blue — if the player clears a line of a certain type, then they will get an extra five seconds of time.

'''Psyduck's Shuffle Surprise!''', released on July 23, 2010, is a game which consists of four cards, each containing a Pokémon in the center, for example, {{p|Medicham}}, {{p|Xatu}}, {{p|Cubone}}, and {{p|Jigglypuff}}. The player is told to remember one of them, whose name will be displayed around the top. The cards are then shuffled around, and the player must find the right card they were told about in the beginning. Every time, the player gets it right, {{p|Psyduck}} will jump. Every time they get it wrong, Psyduck will shake its head. The player has three lives, and every time the player chooses the incorrect card, one will be lost. A Trainer Token is awarded after the first five levels, then once more for every additional 10 levels. When the game ends, Psyduck will jump onto the screen and point its bill at the level the player reached and then the score the player got.

[[File:Wobbuffet Puzzle Pack.png|300px|thumb|left|Wobbuffet's Puzzle Pack!]]
'''Wobbuffet's Puzzle Pack!''', released on August 7, 2010, is an online jigsaw puzzle. When the game begins, the player can choose either easy mode, signified by a {{p|Wynaut}}, or challenging mode, signified by a {{p|Wobbuffet}}. Either way, the player will have to solve a jigsaw puzzle which shows either official artwork of a feature in the series or a Trading Card. If they choose easy mode, they'll have a small puzzle with only 3 minutes to solve it. If they choose challenging mode, they'll have a big puzzle with 10 minutes to solve it. If a piece is put into the correct spot, both the Wobbuffet and the Wynaut on the screen will jump. They'll also jump if time is about to run out. If time runs out, they'll stop moving and the game ends with no points gained. If the puzzle is completed before then, the player will get points and Trainer Tokens if they either beat the puzzle for the first time or gained over 100,000 points.

[[File:Snover Dessert Drop.png|300px|thumb|Snover's Dessert Drop!]]
'''Snover's Dessert Drop!''', released on September 7, 2010, is an online game where the goal is to create shaved ice desserts. The player controls a cup at the bottom of the screen, and pieces of strawberry, orange, and kiwi fruits; ice cubes; and syrups will fall. The goal is to gather fruit and stack the shaved ice as tall as possible, and then top it off with syrup to get points and empty the bowl. Bonus points are awarded for collecting all of one flavor (for example, three strawberries and strawberry syrup), or for using all flavors (one each of strawberry, orange, and kiwi, and topped with rainbow syrup). Doing a single flavor for the whole bowl will also extend the time on the clock. Occasionally, tokens will also fall that will alternate between a sun and a picture of {{p|Abomasnow}}. Collecting the token in the cup when it is a sun will make the weather sunny, melting the player's dessert so that they can start over; collecting it as an Abomasnow will cause a blizzard, making the ice cubes bigger. When time has run out, the player's points are tallied, with extra points added at the end for the number of desserts completed. The player will get Trainer Tokens the first time they earn 100 points, and every time they earn 100,000 points after that.

[[File:Pokemon Tick Tock Walk.png|300px|thumb|left|Pokémon Tick-Tock Walk!]]
'''Pokémon Tick-Tock Walk!''', released on October 14, 2010, is an online game where the goal is to get Pokémon to collect a key and go to the door by a certain time. The player controls either a {{p|Chimchar}}, {{p|Piplup}}, or {{p|Turtwig}} clock, and must get the clock. This does not come easy however. The player must insert blocks for them to be able to reach the key and any coins or stars. Extra points can be gained when said coins and stars are received. Also found in the levels are type blocks. Depending on a Pokémon's type, time can be lost, added, or not be changed. For example, Chimchar gets extra time when going through a grass block, has nothing happen when going through a fire block, and loses time when going through a water block. The game has two modes, training mode and special mode. Training mode has six levels in all. The player receives a Trainer Token when they finish one of them, but not any time after that. Special mode is different. The player has three hints in the beginning before playing the mode. These hints usually pertain to certain obstacles in the level, and the score in special mode is used in the high-scores section. Every time 100,000 points is reached, a Trainer Token is gained.

The player moves around the house by using the arrow keys, or by moving the mouse cursor to the edge of the mini-game's screen. Clicking on the purple power-ups, will give additional points, as well as a hint. Hints can be used to make the webs blink once again, temporarily stopping the timer and rendering them unclickable while flashing. On the first round, the player has 1 minute to find Gastly. Each progressing level will give the player 15 more seconds. Players get a Trainer Token the first time they play the game, and each time they reach 50,000 points after that.

===Tepig's Tasty Treat Toaster!===
[[File:Tepig Tasty Treat Toaster.png|300px|thumb|left|Tepig's Tasty Treat Toaster!]]
Released on June 23, 2011, '''Tepig's Tasty Treat Toaster!''' is an online game in which the player aims to eliminate all of the orbs in the level. The player accomplishes this by shooting at the orbs with matching orbs to create a chain of three or more. The player may bounce orbs off the walls. When this happens, the chain will disappear and any orbs being held by it alone will fall, giving the player points. A chain of 3 will grant 300 points, a chain of 4 will grant 400 points, a chain of 5 will grant 500 points, and each orb that falls grants 200 points. Any chain that disappears will appear on the ground as a [[Berry]] in varying sizes depending on the size of the chain, but individual Berries will not. Every once in a while, {{p|Tepig}} will burn the Berries to leave more space for Berries to appear on the ground. Regardless of whether Tepig actually burns the Berries, they will supply Tepig with food, which increases the colored-in part in the Burst meter. When the Burst meter is full, the player will be able to make Tepig unleash {{tt|a flaming attack|Burst}} that obliterates Berries of a selected kind. Berries that disappear from using said attack will not supply Tepig with food. At the start of a level, the game waits for the player to click the "Start" button before the timer starts counting down, and he or she may read the "How to Play" but cannot press the "Quit" button. If the player has an orb touch the shooter, runs out of time, or beats the final level, the game ends. A Trainer Token is earned if the player plays the game for the first time and/or reaches at least 60,000 points without the game ending.

===Scraggy's Headbutt Blast===
[[File:Scraggy Headbutt Blast.png|300px|thumb|Scraggy's Headbutt Blast]]
'''Scraggy's Headbutt Blast''', released on November 10, 2011, is an online game where the goal is to smash as many watermelons, ice blocks, and rocks as possible in a time limit of 30 seconds. Hitting an object's "weak spot" will always destroy it in one hit, and will also award significantly more points than hitting it anywhere else. The ping that the {{m|headbutt}} produces changes, and the points awarded increase as the player's headbutt becomes closer to the weak spot. Using an {{DL|Battle item|X Accuracy}} reveals the location of the object's weak spot, but the player may only use up to 3 of these items in a single game. On the first three levels, the location of the object's weak spot will be automatically revealed, and it will be impossible to use an X Accuracy. Every object has a visible HP bar along the left side. HP is taken away with each headbutt that the player makes, which will eventually cause the object to be smashed and quickly replaced with another one. Combos are achieved when objects are broken roughly within 3 or 4 seconds of each other, and allow the player to have a higher final score. A Trainer Token is awarded when the player plays the game for the first time, and an extra Trainer Token whenever the player achieves a score of 40,000 or more.

If a chain of three or more is made, then it shall explode, {{tt|sending the chain back|unless it is at the very front}} and awarding points to the player. As the entire chain of goes back to fill in the gap from a chain of three or more exploding, multiple chains can explode consecutively. When they explode, a [[Berry]] will sometimes drop, which the player can catch for more bonuses and a power-up orb. As only one power-up orb can be used at any time, the player may wish to dodge a Berry to not have their power up replaced. When the chain reaches the blue area, the game ends.

*Black (slows), provided by a [[Aguav Berry]]

===Play to Befriend a Pokémon!===
[[File:Play to Befriend a Pokémon.png|thumb|300px|left|Play to Befriend a Pokémon!]]
'''Play to Befriend a Pokémon!''' was released March 28, 2011, and was removed May 5. Most notably, it allowed players to obtain [[Eeveelution|an evolution]] of {{p|Eevee}} via the [[Pokémon Global Link]] from May 19—these Pokémon have their Hidden Ability. Because of this, players needed to be signed into their Pokémon Trainer Club accounts to play it.

The game consists of four levels wherein players break blocks and catch orbs that fall from the blocks. Players earn points by hitting blocks. Hitting blocks consecutively while not hitting the pad increases the points earned by a hundred each hit; the points earned go back to a hundred after hitting the pad. Orbs caught merit 500 points each. In order to break blocks, players must use their mouse to move the pad, make the ball bounce and prevent it from falling. After falling, players lose lives, of which only three are available at the start of the game; however, more could be obtained during the progression of the game. The game is over when the player has no more lives. To help the player, and maybe even make things harder for the player, power-ups are made available at each of the levels.

The orbs caught will correspond with an evolution of Eevee that could be obtained after completing the game. At the end of the game, a random orb will be chosen out of all those obtained during each of the four levels. Players will be allowed to choose whether to keep the evolution or not. They may play again if they choose not to in order to obtain another evolution. If the player chooses to keep the chosen evolution, they may not obtain another one in their Trainer Club account. To confirm that the player has in fact chosen an evolution, they merely have to refresh the page; a message will pop up mentioning what they have chosen.

The game was available until May 4; the evolutions of Eevee were obtainable on the Pokémon Global Link from May 19 to August 31, 2011.

To access them, players had to simply change the number at the end of the address of one of the aforementioned games.

====Tic-Tac-Toe====
'''Tic-Tac-Toe''' was a game occupying the space "#funzone_1" before the site was revamped. In this game, the user plays [[wp:Tic-tac-toe|Tic-tac-toe]] using {{p|Blaziken}} and {{p|Swampert}} as markers. The player has a choice of which one they can be. If they choose Blaziken, they go first. If they choose Swampert, they go second. The user can either play against the computer at one of three skill levels, or against another player on the same computer. Like the other games that appeared before the site revamp, this game was not put on the new site.

====Unnamed Shuckle game====
An '''unnamed Shuckle game''' was a game occupying the space "#funzone_2" before the site was revamped. In this game, the user is presented with multiple [[Poké Ball]]s, one of which contains a {{shiny}} {{p|Shuckle}}, while the others contain regular Shuckle. The object of the game is to keep track of the Poké Ball containing the shiny Shuckle while the Poké Balls are shuffled on screen. The game starts with three Poké Balls, with another added each level. There were 10 levels, the final level containing 12 Poké Balls. Like the other games that appeared before the site revamp, this game was not put on the new site.

==Trivia==
* Before {{game|Platinum}}'s announcement in North America, the Fun Zone only had games based on [[Generation III]]. When Platinum was announced, Switch-a-Roo! was launched.

The official Pokémon website, [[Pokémon.com]], hosts twenty-six Pokémon-related '''online games''' that can be played on one of two sites. Up until 2010, only six games were available, with four being accessible in the fun zone directly and the other two being hidden; following a revamp of the site in January 2010, three new games were launched, with ten others being released later. The six previous games were later made available on an archive site, which has since been removed.

[[File:Turtwig Target Smash.png|300px|thumb|Turtwig's Target Smash!]]
'''Turtwig's Target Smash!''' is one of the currently available games. In this game, the player is a {{p|Turtwig}} on a wooden platform using {{m|Energy Ball}} to smash targets while avoiding the blocks. The amount of points for each hit depends on the times power used on the targets and the amount of targets broken within one Energy Ball. When more targets are hit, the times power will raise. It will also go down and will drop down to lower times power unless more targets are hit. Like other online games found on Pokémon.com after the revamp, Turtwig's Target Smash! gives the player Trainer Tokens the first time they reach 50,000 points, and every time they earn 150,000 points. At the end of the game, Turtwig will use {{m|SolarBeam}} to blast all of the remaining targets. The game lasts 100 seconds.

====Types of Targets====
* The red target: This target is a basic target. When hit at times 1 power it will give 30 points. There is no countdown to the target disappearing.
* The green target: This target is like the red target, but offers 150 points when hit at times 1 power and has a countdown to it disappearing.
* The gold target: This target is smaller than a green target, and offers 300 points when hit at times 1 power and has a countdown to disappearing, which is even smaller than the green target's.

===Pachirisu's Click-Clack Attack!===
[[File:Pachirisu Click Clack Attack.png|300px|thumb|left|Pachirisu's Click-Clack Attack!]]
'''Pachirisu's Click-Clack Attack!''' is game featuring {{p|Pachirisu}}. Here, there are a bunch of Pokémon disks, which should be hit into holes. More points are received when more than one Pokémon in the same evolutionary line are in the same hole. If two Pokémon in the evolutionary line hit each other when they aren't in a hole, they will fuse into the Pokémon's evolution. For example, if two {{p|Budew}} were to hit each other, they would fuse into a {{p|Roselia}}. If that Roselia hits another Budew, they will then fuse into a {{p|Roserade}}. Evolved Pokémon are worth more points than unevolved Pokémon. During a couple of rounds, the player must put every Pokémon into a hole in one shot. During others, a {{p|Lucario}} covered with stars will appear. If the Lucario goes into a hole, a bunch of stars will appear near it. This will temporarily raise the amount of points received from hitting a Pokémon into that hole.

====Pokémon that appear====
*{{p|Azurill}}, {{p|Marill}}, and {{p|Azumarill}}
*{{p|Budew}}, {{p|Roselia}}, and {{p|Roserade}}
*{{p|Machop}}, {{p|Machoke}}, and {{p|Machamp}}
*{{p|Pichu}}, {{p|Pikachu}}, and {{p|Raichu}}

[[File:Munchlax Berry Bonanza.png|300px|thumb|Munchlax's Berry Bonanza!]]
'''Munchlax's Berry Bonanza!''' is another online game, this time revolving around {{p|Munchlax}}. In this game, the player tries to match [[berry|berries]] of the same kind. When three or more are put together, they will disappear and the player will earn points. If the player manages to match many of these berries, rarer berries will appear. When matched, these will get the player more points. The later in the game the berries are matched, the more points the player will receive. The player has 100 berries. The game will end when the screen a berry comes above the screen or if all 100 berries are used. If there are eight or less berries on the field, Munchlax will jump and make eleven more berries fall to fill the puzzle up more with a 3,000-point bonus. Trainer Tokens are given when the player first earns over 10,000 points, and whenever they earn over 50,000 points.

===Shiftry's Big Seed Fling!===
[[File:Shiftry Big Seed Fling.png|300px|thumb|left|Shiftry's Big Seed Fling!]]
'''Shiftry's Big Seed Fling!''' is another online game featuring {{p|Shiftry}}. In this game, the player picks from three seeds to fling as high as the player can. The player is allowed ten flings which can be improved by either clicking on a green leaf or having the seed hit the leaf. The red leaves can be made in contact in the same way as the green leaves, but with a different function: the distance is enhanced. The game ends as soon as the seed is off the screen in any position other than the up position. Top scores are dependent on how high the seed went.

This game was made available at February 21, 2010, but was removed shortly after due to a gaming malfunction. The cause of the glitch was remedied, and the game is now online once more.

===Medicham's Balance Bounce!===
[[File:Medicham Balance Bounce.png|300px|thumb|left|Medicham's Balance Bounce!]]
'''Medicham's Balance Bounce''' is a game where the player must bounce the {{p|Meditite}} or {{p|Medicham}} on one platform while balancing a {{p|Voltorb}} on the other. If the Voltorb falls off or the Meditite/Medicham goes near the bottom platform, it will blow up. If Meditite or Medicham is bounced depends on whether the player decides to choose the easy mode or the challenging mode. If the former is chosen, the player bounces a Meditite. If the latter is chosen, Medicham will instead be bounced. The biggest difference between the easy mode and the challenging mode other than the Pokémon bounced is that on the challenging mode, a star, a skull, or a diamond will occasionally fall down. If the player hits the star, they gain 500 points. If they hit the skull, they lose 500 points. However, if they hit the diamond, they gain what is known in the game as a sparkle bonus, which is a large amount of points. If the player chooses the challenging mode, on the right of the screen, how many of each the player hit will be seen. Every minute, the top platform will shrink, and every two minutes, the bottom platform will shrink. This game was added to the site on May 18, 2010.

===Drifloon's Fill & Float!===
[[File:Drifloon Fill and Float.png|300px|thumb|Drifloon's Fill & Float!]]

On the right of the screen is a gauge known as the bubble meter. It shows how much soap is left. If it runs out the games end. There are two extra bubbles, one that slightly refills the bubble meter and another that freezes the balloons. A {{p|Drifloon}} icon also appears, which makes the balloons temporarily disappear. Trainer Tokens are received when the player first reaches 1,000 points and every time they reach 120,000 points after that.

===Eevee's Tile Trial!===
[[File:Eevee Tile Trial.png|300px|thumb|left|Eevee's Tile Trial!]]
'''Eevee's Tile Trial!''', released July 9, 2010, is a game reminiscent of a {{wp|sliding puzzle}} in which players must slide tiles around and align three of the same tiles in a row or column to earn as much points as they can within approximately three minutes. There are three types of tiles, corresponding to each of {{p|Eevee}}'s original evolutions: {{t|Water}}, {{t|Electric}}, and {{t|Fire}}. When the player lines up three of the same type of tile, the tiles disappear from the board, earning the player points. At the beginning of the game, the player must choose one of the three types. If he or she focuses on clearing more tiles of that type, then {{p|Eevee}} will evolve, resulting in an Evolution Bonus in which the player is awarded 10,000 points. A Trainer Token is also awarded the first time the player reaches 15,000 points in the game, as well as each time the player manages to get Eevee to evolve. Periodically throughout the game, a row or column will be outlined in blue — if the player clears a line of a certain type, then they will get an extra five seconds of time.

'''Snover's Dessert Drop!''', released on September 7, 2010, is an online game where the goal is to create shaved ice desserts. The player controls a cup at the bottom of the screen, and pieces of strawberry, orange, and kiwi fruits; ice cubes; and syrups will fall. The goal is to gather fruit and stack the shaved ice as tall as possible, and then top it off with syrup to get points and empty the bowl. Bonus points are awarded for collecting all of one flavor (for example, three strawberries and strawberry syrup), or for using all flavors (one each of strawberry, orange, and kiwi, and topped with rainbow syrup). Doing a single flavor for the whole bowl will also extend the time on the clock. Occasionally, tokens will also fall that will alternate between a sun and a picture of {{p|Abomasnow}}. Collecting the token in the cup when it is a sun will make the weather sunny, melting the player's dessert so that they can start over; collecting it as an Abomasnow will cause a blizzard, making the ice cubes bigger. When time has run out, the player's points are tallied, with extra points added at the end for the number of desserts completed. The player will get Trainer Tokens the first time they earn 100 points, and every time they earn 100,000 points after that.

===Pokémon Tick-Tock Walk!===
[[File:Pokemon Tick Tock Walk.png|300px|thumb|left|Pokémon Tick-Tock Walk!]]
'''Pokémon Tick-Tock Walk!''', released on October 14, 2010, is an online game where the goal is to get Pokémon to collect a key and go to the door by a certain time. The player controls either a {{p|Chimchar}}, {{p|Piplup}}, or {{p|Turtwig}} clock, and must get the clock. This does not come easy however. The player must insert blocks for them to be able to reach the key and any coins or stars. Extra points can be gained when said coins and stars are received. Also found in the levels are type blocks. Depending on a Pokémon's type, time can be lost, added, or not be changed. For example, Chimchar gets extra time when going through a grass block, has nothing happen when going through a fire block, and loses time when going through a water block. The game has two modes, training mode and special mode. Training mode has six levels in all. The player receives a Trainer Token when they finish one of them, but not any time after that. Special mode is different. The player has three hints in the beginning before playing the mode. These hints usually pertain to certain obstacles in the level, and the score in special mode is used in the high-scores section. Every time 100,000 points is reached, a Trainer Token is gained.

===Tepig's Tasty Treat Toaster!===
[[File:Tepig Tasty Treat Toaster.png|300px|thumb|left|Tepig's Tasty Treat Toaster!]]
Released on June 23, 2011, '''Tepig's Tasty Treat Toaster!''' is an online game in which the player aims to eliminate all of the orbs in the level. The player accomplishes this by shooting at the orbs with matching orbs to create a chain of three or more. The player may bounce orbs off the walls. When this happens, the chain will disappear and any orbs being held by it alone will fall, giving the player points. A chain of 3 will grant 300 points, a chain of 4 will grant 400 points, a chain of 5 will grant 500 points, and each orb that falls grants 200 points. Any chain that disappears will appear on the ground as a [[Berry]] in varying sizes depending on the size of the chain, but individual Berries will not. Every once in a while, {{p|Tepig}} will burn the Berries to leave more space for Berries to appear on the ground. Regardless of whether Tepig actually burns the Berries, they will supply Tepig with food, which increases the colored-in part in the Burst meter. When the Burst meter is full, the player will be able to make Tepig unleash {{tt|a flaming attack|Burst}} that obliterates Berries of a selected kind. Berries that disappear from using said attack will not supply Tepig with food. At the start of a level, the game waits for the player to click the "Start" button before the timer starts counting down, and he or she may read the "How to Play" but cannot press the "Quit" button. If the player has an orb touch the shooter, runs out of time, or beats the final level, the game ends. A Trainer Token is earned if the player plays the game for the first time and/or reaches at least 60,000 points without the game ending.

===Scraggy's Headbutt Blast===
[[File:Scraggy Headbutt Blast.png|300px|thumb|Scraggy's Headbutt Blast]]
'''Scraggy's Headbutt Blast''', released on November 10, 2011, is an online game where the goal is to smash as many watermelons, ice blocks, and rocks as possible in a time limit of 30 seconds. Hitting an object's "weak spot" will always destroy it in one hit, and will also award significantly more points than hitting it anywhere else. The ping that the {{m|headbutt}} produces changes, and the points awarded increase as the player's headbutt becomes closer to the weak spot. Using an {{DL|Battle item|X Accuracy}} reveals the location of the object's weak spot, but the player may only use up to 3 of these items in a single game. On the first three levels, the location of the object's weak spot will be automatically revealed, and it will be impossible to use an X Accuracy. Every object has a visible HP bar along the left side. HP is taken away with each headbutt that the player makes, which will eventually cause the object to be smashed and quickly replaced with another one. Combos are achieved when objects are broken roughly within 3 or 4 seconds of each other, and allow the player to have a higher final score. A Trainer Token is awarded when the player plays the game for the first time, and an extra Trainer Token whenever the player achieves a score of 40,000 or more.

The mouse is used to throw one orb at another of the same color, then yet again to create a chain. If an orb does not touch another, it will simply fly off screen. If a chain of three or more is made, then it shall explode, {{tt|sending the chain back|unless it is at the very front}} and awarding points to the player. As the entire chain of goes back to fill in the gap from a chain of three or more exploding, multiple chains can explode consecutively. When they explode, a [[Berry]] will sometimes drop, which the player can catch for more bonuses and a power-up orb. As only one power-up orb can be used at any time, the player may wish to dodge a Berry to not have their power up replaced. When the chain reaches the blue area, the game ends.

*Black (slows), provided by a [[Aguav Berry]]

===Play to Befriend a Pokémon!===
[[File:Play to Befriend a Pokémon.png|thumb|300px|left|Play to Befriend a Pokémon!]]
'''Play to Befriend a Pokémon!''' was released March 28, 2011, and was removed May 5. Most notably, it allowed players to obtain [[Eeveelution|an evolution]] of {{p|Eevee}} via the [[Pokémon Global Link]] from May 19—these Pokémon have their Hidden Ability. Because of this, players needed to be signed into their Pokémon Trainer Club accounts to play it.

The game consists of four levels wherein players break blocks and catch orbs that fall from the blocks. Players earn points by hitting blocks. Hitting blocks consecutively while not hitting the pad increases the points earned by a hundred each hit; the points earned go back to a hundred after hitting the pad. Orbs caught merit 500 points each. In order to break blocks, players must use their mouse to move the pad, make the ball bounce and prevent it from falling. After falling, players lose lives, of which only three are available at the start of the game; however, more could be obtained during the progression of the game. The game is over when the player has no more lives. To help the player, and maybe even make things harder for the player, power-ups are made available at each of the levels.

The orbs caught will correspond with an evolution of Eevee that could be obtained after completing the game. At the end of the game, a random orb will be chosen out of all those obtained during each of the four levels. Players will be allowed to choose whether to keep the evolution or not. They may play again if they choose not to in order to obtain another evolution. If the player chooses to keep the chosen evolution, they may not obtain another one in their Trainer Club account. To confirm that the player has in fact chosen an evolution, they merely have to refresh the page; a message will pop up mentioning what they have chosen.

The game was available until May 4; the evolutions of Eevee were obtainable on the Pokémon Global Link from May 19 to August 31, 2011.

===Pre-revamp games===
These games were available at Pokémon.com prior to January 11, 2010, and available at origin.pokemon.com after. However, due to the archive site being closed, only Switch-a-Roo! is available now.

====Switch-a-Roo!====
[[File:Switch a Roo.png|300px|thumb|left|Switch-a-Roo!]]
'''Switch-a-Roo!''' is a game that was introduced before the site was revamped. It is the only pre-revamp game to be based on a game released in [[Generation IV]]: {{v2|Platinum}}. In this game, the player tries to switch Pokémon next to each other in order to make three or more in a row. Once three Pokémon of the same species are put together, they will disappear. The color of each box corresponds to the type of the Pokémon in that box. If the player earned 30 points, they would earn a download. Like the other games that appeared before the site revamp, this game was not put on the new site. However, this game is still available to play in [http://www.pokemonplatinum.com/#/fun-zone/game/ Pokémon Platinum's main page].

=====Pokémon that appear=====
* {{p|Turtwig}}
* {{p|Piplup}}
* {{p|Chimchar}}
* {{p|Dialga}}
* {{p|Palkia}}
* {{p|Giratina}} (Origin Forme)

====Tricks of a Trainer====
'''Tricks of a Trainer''' is another game introduced before the site was revamped. It is a quiz game, asking questions about [[Hoenn]]. If the player gets a question right, {{Ash}} appears along with a sentence saying that the answer is correct. If the player gets a question wrong however, [[Professor Birch]] will appear along with a sentence saying that the answer is incorrect. In order to move on, the player will have to try again until he or she gets the answer correct. There are five questions total. Like the other games that appeared before the site revamp, this game was not put on the new site.

====Grassamatass====
'''Grassamatass''' is another game introduced before the site was revamped. In this game, the player tries to solve a crossword about {{type2|Grass}} Pokémon and [[move]]s from Generations I, II, and III. There are nine questions total. Like the other games that appeared before the site revamp, this game was not put on the new site.

====Deep Sea Diving====
'''Deep Sea Diving''' is another game introduced before the site was revamped. In this game, the player tries to find the names of {{type|Water}} Pokémon from Generations I, II, and III. Like other games that appeared before the site revamp, this game was not put on the new site.

===Hidden games===
These games were available at Pokémon.com prior to January 11, 2010, and were available at origin.pokemon.com after. Unlike the other four games, these games were hidden, requiring the user to type the address of the games to access them. To access them, players had to simply change the number at the end of the address of one of the aforementioned games.

====Tic-Tac-Toe====
'''Tic-Tac-Toe''' was a game occupying the space "#funzone_1" before the site was revamped. In this game, the user plays [[wp:Tic-tac-toe|Tic-tac-toe]] using {{p|Blaziken}} and {{p|Swampert}} as markers. The player has a choice of which one they can be. If they choose Blaziken, they go first. If they choose Swampert, they go second. The user can either play against the computer at one of three skill levels, or against another player on the same computer. Like the other games that appeared before the site revamp, this game was not put on the new site.

====Unnamed Shuckle game====
An '''unnamed Shuckle game''' was a game occupying the space "#funzone_2" before the site was revamped. In this game, the user is presented with multiple [[Poké Ball]]s, one of which contains a {{shiny}} {{p|Shuckle}}, while the others contain regular Shuckle. The object of the game is to keep track of the Poké Ball containing the shiny Shuckle while the Poké Balls are shuffled on screen. The game starts with three Poké Balls, with another added each level. There were 10 levels, the final level containing 12 Poké Balls. Like the other games that appeared before the site revamp, this game was not put on the new site.

==Trivia==
* Before {{game|Platinum}}'s announcement in North America, the Fun Zone only had games based on [[Generation III]]. When Platinum was announced, Switch-a-Roo! was launched.

Pokequesthero: /* Intro */

My name is Pokequesthero, and am a fan of Pokémon. My favorite Pokémon is [[Pikachu (Pokémon)|Pikachu]]. I really don't know why they don't say [[Gotta Catch 'Em All!]] anymore, because you still have to do it to complete the [[Pokédex]], and I like that motto. I also like the anime opening theme songs; my favorites are [[Battle Frontier (dub)|Battle Frontier]], [[Pokémon Johto]], [[Battle Cry - (Stand Up!)]], and [[Black and White (song)|Black and White]]. Some other songs I like are [[Can't Stop (Catchin' 'Em All)]], [[Kanto Pokérap]], [[Together Forever]], and [[Viridian City (song)|Viridian City]].

I'm a girl and live in the US. When I was eleven, my best friend suddenly became a "Pokémon maniac", as she called herself. We played with her Pokémon plush toys, and watched episodes and movies on her computer. I wanted to learn more about Pokémon, and because of that, became a fan myself. The rest of the page tells more about my PokéLife.

== Anime ==

I think the [[Pokémon anime]] is okay; watching it was how I first learned about some basic Pokémon stuff. I watched episodes on pokemon.com before realizing I could check out the three Indigo League boxed sets and the Orange Islands episodes from the library. After watching those episodes, I became obsessed with the [[Kanto]] region.

What I don't like about the anime is that [[Ash Ketchum]], the main character, is so rash and [[Iris (anime)|acts like a little kid]]. His voice, along with Misty's and some other characters, is kind of high-pitched. I always wonder where Team Rocket always blasts off. Brock flirts with every pretty woman he meets.

Plus, it took me a long time to realize that no one ever ages or gets older. When I watched [[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]], Ash said that a whole year had passed since he last been to [[Viridian City]]. That made me want to think he is eleven years old. Then, I watched [[BW001|In the Shadow of Zekrom]] on pokemon.com and the narrator said he is STILL ten, and that made me all confused. This is a reason how I dislike the anime; "timeless" is how I put it.

== Manga ==

One time, when I was at the library, I went to the shelf where the Pokémon books are. I saw the first volume of [[Pokémon Adventures]], so checked it out without reading the blurb. It took me a few seconds to realize that it's read right to left. I looked at the adventure route map in the back and realized at least one Pokémon is battled with in each round.

Walkthrough:Pokémon Black and White/Part 1

2012-04-20T22:47:47Z

Pokequesthero: /* Nuvema Town */

== Starting Out ==
[[File:BW Juniper Intro.png|thumb|right|Professor Juniper and her Minccino introduce you to the world of Pokémon]]

After selecting ''New Game'' you are asked to choose your character's gender. This cannot be changed after selecting. The resident researcher of the [[Unova]] region, [[Professor Juniper]], appears and introduces new Trainers to the Pokémon world. Her lecture is important for new players, though it's nothing new to veterans of the series. She also introduces the player's best friends, [[Cheren]] and [[Bianca]]. Once she is done talking, you are asked to enter your character's name. The name cannot be changed, so double-check that you have what you want. Press ''OK'' and you are ready for your adventure!

== Nuvema Town ==
[[File:Nuvema Town.png|thumb|right|Nuvema Town]]

You find yourself with [[Cheren]] in your bedroom, waiting for [[Bianca]] to show up. {{prof|Juniper}} believes that the three of you have potential, and has delivered a gift box of three important Pokémon. Bianca arrives shortly, and the two let you open the box and have your choice of Pokémon.

* The {{type2|Grass}} {{p|Snivy}} has the most weaknesses out of the three starters, with five- {{t|Fire}}-, {{t|Bug}}-, {{t|Poison}}-, {{t|Flying}}-, and {{type2|Ice}}s (although it and its evolutions make up for this with their superior [[Defence]][[Special Defence|s]]). Its Grass attacks are strong against {{t|Rock}}-, {{t|Ground}}-, and {{type2|Water}}s.
* The {{type2|Fire}} {{p|Tepig}} is great when battling {{t|Grass}}-, {{t|Bug}}-. {{t|Ice}}- and {{type2|Steel}}s, but has trouble when facing {{t|Water}}-, {{t|Ground}}-, and {{type2|Rock}}s. Tepig is unique amongst the Unova starters due to it gaining a secondary type as it grows, while Snivy and Oshawott do not. The type, {{t|Fighting}}, adds two weaknesses in {{t|Psychic}} and {{t|Flying}}, but elimanates the Rock-type weakness. With their ability to learn Fighting moves (albeit {{m|Arm Thrust|only}} {{m|Hammer Arm|two}} naturally) as well as Fire attacks, Tepig's evolutions have the most type advantages of the starter evolutions- with the added edge against {{t|Normal}}- {{t|Dark}}- and {{type2|Rock}} Pokémon.
* The {{type2|Water}} {{p|Oshawott}}'s Water attacks have an advantage when facing {{t|Fire}}-, {{t|Rock}}-, and {{type2|Ground}}s, but may struggle with {{t|Grass}}- and {{type2|Electric}}s. With only two disadvantages even in its final form, Oshawott is arguably the safest choice of the three starters.

After you choose your first Pokémon, [[Bianca]] takes the one with a type disadvantage to yours, leaving the last for [[Cheren]]. Bianca then suggests a battle. [[Cheren]] opts out, so she decides to battle you. When the battle is over, Cheren heals both Pokémon, regardless of the outcome. Bianca apologizes for the Pokémon destroying your room, then persuades Cheren to battle you.

Unlike the rest of the Trainers in the game, losing to either Bianca or Cheren will not result in a [[black out]]; the story will progress as usual regardless of the outcome of each battle.

=== The Journey Begins ===
Your friends will then leave the room to apologize to your Mom for the mess. You Mom then asks not to worry and should continue on your journey. Seeing that you are about to set out on a long adventure, she gives you a gift — the [[Xtransceiver]]! This gadget allows video calls with up to four people at once, a handy way for Mom and [[Professor Juniper]] to contact you and your friends.

The three of you decide to stop by the Juniper Lab to thank the professor for her gift. [[Bianca]] rushes off to tell her family of her impending adventure, and [[Cheren]] leaves for the lab. He waits outside for the two of you, but you'll need to stop by Bianca's house to pick her up. When you step inside, her dad is angry, and dead-set against her leaving. He cools off a little and she leaves for the lab.

When you all arrive, {{prof|Juniper}} asks if you three would mind helping with her studies, researching the origins of Pokémon. She hands each of you a [[Pokédex]], and gives you a chance to name your new Pokémon before sending you on your way. Mom is waiting outside the lab, and hands each of you a {{DL|List of key items in Generation V|Town Map}} to start off your journey.

== Route 1 ==
[[File:BW Unova Route 1 {{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: n}} mod 4}}|0=Winter|1=Spring|2=Summer|3=Autumn}}.png|thumb|right|Route 1]]

As you leave your hometown behind, you find [[Bianca]] and [[Cheren]] waiting for you. At Bianca's request, the three of you all take your first step onto {{rt|1|Unova}} together. [[Professor Juniper]] is waiting here, and demonstrates how to catch a wild {{p|Patrat}} with her {{p|Minccino}}. After the tutorial, she gives you 5 Poké Balls to start you off, and heads north to [[Accumula Town]]. Bianca then suggests a Pokémon hunt; whoever has the most in their party before reaching Accumula Town wins. As you walk north, Juniper calls the three of you on the [[Xtransceiver]] asking to meet her at the nearest Pokémon Center. To win the challenge, you must catch two (three including the Pokémon you received at the start) Pokémon, but it's not necessary to continue and you don't receive any reward for winning.

{{rt|1|Unova}} has two Normal-types, Patrat and Lillipup. Strengthwise, the Lillipup line is stronger than Patrat's; however, to win, it's advisable to capture both of them.

As you enter [[Accumula Town]], you find the professor waiting in front of the [[Pokémon Center]]. Speak to her to learn about all of the services available inside. Unlike past games, these now include the [[Poké Mart]] and [[GTS]]. Before she leaves, the professor asks you to visit [[Fennel]], a friend of hers in the next city. Heal up your team and be sure to buy a few [[Potion|Potions]] and [[Poké Ball|Poké Balls]] for the road ahead.

Outside, [[Cheren]] directs your attention to a crowd of people gathered in the plaza. The soundtrack changes to some creepy music, and you see a line of people dressed in what looks like medieval armor standing behind the speaker, who introduces himself as [[Ghetsis]]. He gives a radical speech on behalf of [[Team Plasma]] that advocates the liberation of Pokémon from people. The speech ends, and the group leaves. As you and Cheren discuss the event, a teenage boy with green hair approaches you, claiming that he can hear your Pokémon "speaking." He introduces himself as [[N]], and demands a battle, which you must win in order to proceed.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Hydreigon and its {{p|Deino|evolutionary}} {{p|Zweilous|relatives}}.
* Of all the Pokémon that evolve by level alone, Hydreigon evolves from its pre-evolution later than any other Pokémon, at level 64.
* Hydreigon shares the same [[species]] name with {{p|Sharpedo}}. They are both known as Brutal Pokémon.
* Hydreigon has the highest {{stat|Special Attack}} of all non-legendary {{type2|Dark}} Pokémon.
* Hydreigon is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon to not have {{stat|Attack}} as its highest stat.
* Hydreigon's evolutionary family, along with {{p|Salamence}}'s, are the only Pokémon exclusively in the {{egg3|Dragon}}.
* Hydreigon is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon to have never been used by a {{pkmn|Champion}}.
** It is, however, used by [[Ghetsis]], the Trainer who is battled at the end of the Pokémon League during the first [[Hall of Fame]] entry.
* Ghetsis uses a level 54 Hydreigon in battle, even though it doesn't evolve from Zweilous until level 64.
* Hydreigon can learn moves belonging to 16 of the 17 elemental types; it cannot learn any {{type2|Grass}} moves.

===Origin===
Hydreigon is based on {{wp|Yamata no Orochi}}. It may also incorporate elements of {{wp|Lernaean Hydra|hydra}}s and {{wp|Slavic dragon}}s.

Originally, according to interviews with [[Ken Sugimori]] in ''Nintendo Dream'', Hydreigon and its pre-evolutions were intended to be cybernetic dragons incorporating aspects of tanks within their bodies before being redesigned around the theme of {{wp|Yamata no Orochi}}. The tank track-like markings on Hydreigon's body are a remnant of this design.

====Name origin====
Hydreigon seems to be a combination of ''{{wp|Lernaean Hydra|hydra}}'', ''drei'', meaning three in German, and ''dragon''. Both the ''sa'' and ''zan'' in Sazandora seem to come from 三 ''sa''/''san'', or three, a reference to its three heads. The ''dora'' in its name comes from either ''dragon'' or ''hydra'', a possible reference to the multi-headed {{wp|Lernaean Hydra|hydra}} of Greek lore. The choice of ''dora'' as a suffix may also be inspired by {{wp|King Ghidorah}}, another three-headed dragon based on the Orochi.

'''Go West, Young Ash''' by [[Tracey West]] is the seventeenth book of the [[Pokémon anime novelization series|adaption of the Pokémon anime]]. This book was published by [[Scholastic]] in 2001.

It covers the events from ''[[EP115|A Tent Situation]]'' to ''[[EP120|Roll On, Pokémon!]]'', excluding the events of ''[[EP118|The Double Trouble Header]]''.

==Synopsis==
{{spoilers}}
This book follows the plots of the {{pkmn|anime}} episodes ''[[EP115|A Tent Situation]]'', ''[[EP116|A Rivalry Revival]]'', ''[[EP117|Don't Touch That 'dile]]'' , ''[[EP119|A Sappy Ending]]'', and ''[[EP120|Roll On, Pokémon!]]''.

=== Blurb ===
''Let the adventure begin! Ash, Pikachu, and friends travel through the deep, dark forest on their way to the Wild West. Along the way, there's a theft, a rescue, and a mystery to solve. And never-before-seen Pokémon to discover. It's the next level of Pokémon action!''

===A Tent Situation===

The book begins with [[Professor Oak]] welcoming {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|his pals}} back from their journey to the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]]. {{Tracey}}, excited to meet the professor at last, begins shaking his hand, asking to show him his reports, but Professor Oak politely asks to do it later, while requesting the [[GS Ball]] from Ash, who hands it over.

Just then, a familiar voice calls Ash from behind. Ash knows who it is—[[Gary Oak]], his biggest rival. After a short argument, Ash challenges Gary to a {{pkmn|battle}}.

===A Rivalry Revival===

Outside, the battle begins. Ash sends out {{AP|Pikachu}}, whereas Gary starts off with {{TP|Gary|Eevee|Umbreon}}. {{p|Pikachu}} starts off with a {{m|Quick Attack}}, which {{p|Eevee}} counters easily with {{m|Reflect}}. In the audience, Tracey comments that Eevee's Reflect managed to keep out all the damage, while usually it only prevented half. [[Misty]] comments that Eevee must be strong.

Back in the battle, Pikachu uses its {{m|Thunderbolt}}, only to be met with Eevee's {{m|Double Team}}. Eevee then uses {{m|Take Down}}, which Pikachu avoids with {{m|Agility}}. Ash commands Pikachu to use {{m|Thunder}}, but Pikachu is [[fainting|KO'd]] by a {{m|Skull Bash}} before it can respond. Gary congratulates Eevee, while Ash promises Pikachu that they'll win next time.

At sundown, Ash is ready for another battle, but Gary is nowhere to be found. Ash questions Professor Oak about his whereabouts, but he is too busy trying to get the GS Ball open. When he does answer, he says that Gary had gone west to compete in the [[Johto]] [[Pokémon League]]. Excited by this news, Ash decides to go to Johto as well. [[Brock]] and Misty decide to go with him, while Tracey wants to stay back and help Professor Oak. The Professor asks them to give the GS Ball to [[Kurt]] while they're there, because "If anyone can figure out how to open the GS Ball, he can."

Professor Oak gives Ash a new [[Pokédex]], explaining that there are new Pokémon in the Johto [[region]]. Happily, Ash and his friends set off to their first destination—[[New Bark Town]].

===Don't Touch that 'dile===
Soon, Ash and the group are lost inside thick fog. Ash and Misty have an argument, while Brock complains that they are "Worse than ever".

Suddenly, Pikachu runs off. Surprised, Ash and the gang run after it, All of them stop when they see a {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Suicune|mysterious Pokémon}} inside a bubble. Then the bubble pops, and it runs away. Ash and his friends, stunned by the Pokémon, remember that they are lost. However, the fog lifts, and in front of them, they see their destination—New Bark Town.

Ash rushes into the [[Pokémon Center]] to register for the Johto League, but finds out that [[Nurse Joy]], who was supposed to register him, was at [[Professor Elm]]'s lab. The group runs there.

Upon entrance, they see [[Officer Jenny]]. When she notices the group, she tells them that they will have to leave, as she is running an investigation on a stolen Pokémon. Ash offers to help, saying that they had experience with certain [[Team Rocket|Pokémon thieves]]. Officer Jenny agrees, and walks them into the lab, where Elm and Joy are. Elm says that a [[starter Pokémon]] was stolen. He shows them the Johto starters. {{p|Chikorita}} (which another Trainer had taken as his starter), {{p|Cyndaquil}} (which a Trainer was getting tomorrow), and the stolen Pokémon, {{p|Totodile}}.

Right at that moment, a police officer comes in and tells Jenny that they found tracks. Jenny calls out {{p|Growlithe}} to sniff the tracks and find the thieves. Ash tells Pikachu to help it.

Soon, the thieves are found—[[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}, otherwise known as Team Rocket! They are busy trying to get Totodile out of Jessie's hair—literally. Then the notice Ash's group, and run. Ash sends out {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, who uses {{m|Vine Whip}} to trip Team Rocket. James retaliates by releasing his {{TP|James|Weezing}}, who begins pouring out a {{m|SmokeScreen}}. Ash calls on {{AP|Charizard}} to flap its wings to clear the smoke. Bulbasaur then uses its Vine Whip to slice off the chunk of Jessie's hair with Totodile on it. Team Rocket begins fighting because Jessie "let it get away" and Meowth "didn't do anything about it. Seeing their chances, Pikachu, Charizard, Totodile, and Bulbasaur attack Team Rocket, sending them blasting off again, with Totodile back in good hands and Ash ready to register for the League.

===A Sappy Ending===

After Joy registers Ash in the Johto League, he and the rest of the gang set off for the nearest [[Violet City Gym|gym]] in [[Violet City]].

As they hike, they begin noticing that the trees look drained as opposed to the ones they passed earlier, which were full of life. Brock comments that something must be eating the trees. Pikachu then notices something—a {{type2|Bug}} Pokémon drinking tree sap, which freaks Misty out. Ash consults his Pokédex, which says that the Pokémon was a {{p|Heracross}}. Ash decides to catch it, and is about to throw a [[Poké Ball]] at it, when a man named [[Woodruff]] appears and says that capturing the Heracross would upset the peaceful balance of the forest. Ash doesn't think that the Heracross look too peaceful, until a {{p|Butterfree}} lands next to the Heracross, who lets it drink with it.

Misty wonders why the trees are so dry if the forest is balanced. Woodruff replies that another group of Pokémon was invading the forest. Brock asks what kind of Pokémon it is. As if to answer him, Pikachu points at another swarm of Bug Pokémon—{{p|Pinsir}}. After scaring the Butterfree away, the Pinsir begin scaling the trees. Misty calls out to the Heracross to stop them, but Woodruff says that while the Heracross were certainly powerful enough, they were too good-natured to do so. Brock realizes that the reason the trees are dried up is because the Pinsir invade the new trees, Heracross and Butterfree must then drink form trees they already drunk from.

Just then, they notice a Butterfree and Heracross being attacked by three Pinsir. Ash, angry at the three- on two odds, calls on Bulbasaur and Pikachu, who drive away the Pinsir. Woodruff then asks them to go find out why the Pinsir were invading. They arrive at a valley dividing the Heracross forest and the Pinsir forest, and Woodruff remarks that the bridge was cut. However, a {{AP|Heracross}} that was following the group breaks down a tree for the gang to walk across. When they arrive at the Pinsir forest, they see a mechanical Pinsir operated by Team Rocket stealing sap from the trees. Pikachu blasts it, but the machine absorbs the blast and uses it to paralyze Ash's gang. Just then, the Heracross that was following them fights and defeats the Pinsir, saving Ash and friends. Ash and co. decide to keep going, but Heracross decides to go with them, allowing Ash to catch it.

===Roll On, Pokémon!===

Ash and co. have to cross a valley to get to Violet City. On their way, however, is a baby {{p|Donphan}}. Ash, excited, wants to catch it, but Brock says that a baby like that must be raised by an experienced {{tc|Pokémon Breeder|breeder}} like himself. He sends out {{TP|Brock|Onix|Steelix}} to fight it, but it is quickly defeated. Ash decides it's his turn and send out Heracross to battle it, but is stopped by a woman named [[Rochelle]], who says that the Donphan is hers. Brock notices her necklace, and Rochelle says that it was made of agate, which her Donphan were trained to find around the valley. She leaves, telling the group not to fight any more Donphan.

They are unaware of Team Rocket listening nearby, thrilled by the thought of agate. They conclude that in order to find the agate, they must capture a Donphan. They swoop down on Rochelle and her baby Donphan and catch it in a net.

The group, hearing Rochelle's distress cries, run back over to help her. Brock tries to use {{TP|Brock|Zubat|Crobat}}'s {{m|Supersonic}} to track down Team Rocket, but it fails due to the amount of rocks and trees in the way. Rochelle calls upon her Donphan to sniff out the thieves. After locating them, Meowth complains that the they were following Donphan all around the valley, and still couldn't find any agate. Rochelle explains that the Donphan is too young to find any agate, and ask for it back. Laughing at the thought of returning a Pokémon, James sends out {{TP|James|Victreebel}} and Jessie sends out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}}. Brock tries using Onix again, but it is defeated by Victreebel. Misty uses {{TP|Misty|Poliwag|Politoed}} and Ash uses Heracross, who then defeat Victreebel and Arbok, respectively. Pikachu zaps Team Rocket, causing them to blast off again.

Rochelle says that, because they rescued her Donphan, that she wished she could repay them. Ash replies by requesting a battle. Ash chooses what appears to be the most experienced Donphan, and battles it with Heracross, holding his own though ultimately being defeated with a {{m|Rollout}}.

Misty asks Ash if he feels disappointed about losing. Ash reflects on his rescuing of Totodile, capturing of Heracross, and battling of Donphan, and replies "Disappointed? No way! I can't wait to see what else is waiting for us out here in the wild west!"

===Synopsis===
The [[type]] symbols appear in a circle, and the series logo appears on the screen. The final [[evolution]]s of the three {{pkmn2|starter}}s, Pikachu, Ash and an unnamed {{tc|Lass}} are seen. This is followed by three scenes showing random [[Generation I]] Pokémon.

Ash is then seen with a [[Poké Ball]]. After that, he is riding on the back of a Lapras with Pikachu while a Gyarados and Dragonair are seen jumping out and in the water. Next, Ash and Pikachu are looking at [[Pallet Town]]. It cuts to a scene with them walking, and then Ash throws a Poké Ball with a Pidgeot inside. The Pokémon then begins battling with a Fearow.

{{Ash}} appears looking at the screen, when {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} appear on either side of him. This is followed by [[Jessie]] and [[James]] rising up in front of them. Koffing, Meowth and Ekans jump up next, followed by {{Gary}} holding a Poké Ball. Ash and {{ashfr|the gang}} are seen running from the rain. This is followed by a short clip of [[Nurse Joy]], {{an|Professor Oak}}, [[Officer Jenny]] and [[Delia Ketchum]].

The next scene shows Ash and his friends in [[Viridian Forest]]. Then, Ash and Pikachu are seen running with an Arcanine and a Rapidash. The latter Pokémon jumps up, and the three [[legendary birds]] are seen flying in the sky. A clip of Mewtwo and Mew in space is shown, followed by Ash in a stadium holding a Poké Ball. His friends appear with him.

===Trivia===
* The battle between [[Ash's Pidgeot]] and the Fearow is a parallel of ''[[EP081|Pallet Party Panic]]'', the last episode in which this opening was used. Ash's {{p|Pidgeotto}} did not become Pidgeot until that episode.
* Originally, the opening had one Pokémon image per screen. However, after the "seizure incident" of [[EP038]], the opening was changed to be broken up into four images per screen. The title logo animation also differs slightly between versions.
* The elemental logos shown before and during the title logo animation are the symbols for the [[Generation I|(then)]] seven {{TCG|Elemental types|TCG types}}.
* An instrumental version of the original version of this song appears in both the Japanese and English versions of [[Pokémon Pinball]] when the player is attempting to catch or evolve a Pokémon.
* The original opening animation was used in fewer episodes than ''[[Together]]'''s opening animation. However, because ''Together'' was remixed, the song ''Together'' did not play for a longer number of episodes as this one.
* The song can be heard in the instrumental version of ''[[High Touch!]]''.

==Plot==
{{Spoiler}}
===Opening===
The movie begins with the world of Pokémon opening, showing the [[Unova]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} populating the land, seas and skies. The screen moves towards [[Ash's Pikachu]], who starts running, powers up an {{m|Electro Ball}}, and then fires it—at a {{p|Throh}} in ''White—Victini and Zekrom'', or a {{p|Sawk}} in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram''. Pikachu then runs to Ash. The trio reaches a fork in the road; {{an|Cilan}} looks at his map and tells the group to go left in Black—Victini and Reshiram, or right in White—Victini and Zekrom.

In ''White—Victini and Zekrom'', the screen then moves to a hot desert, where a man named [[Damon]] is traveling by foot. Damon comes upon a young {{p|Blitzle}} with an injured leg, and he calls upon his {{p|Reuniclus}}'s {{m|Psychic}} to help him carry the injured Blitzle on his shoulder. Damon, Reinculus, and Blitzle turn to walk back to a small village to find Blitzle's owner, a little girl named [[Luisa]]. Luisa's father thanks Damon for helping, but tells him to go home and that his plans are useless. Damon then tells the man that [[Eindoak Town]] can be revived, but he is again rebuffed.

At that moment, a dust storm appears in the desert, and heads towards the village. A herd of {{p|Bouffalant}} are startled by this, and they begin to stampede towards the village. Damon goes to check out the disaster and holds up his hand, cuing the appearance of {{OBP|Reshiram|movie 14}}. Damon then climbs on Reshiram's back and orders it to destroy the dust storm, which it does with power and ease. Damon then asks the townspeople, who are shocked by the [[legendary Pokémon]]'s appearance, to give him another chance.

In ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'', the scene instead shows Damon and his {{p|Gothitelle}} visiting a town on a frozen tundra. He discusses the matter of the [[Kingdom of the Vale]]'s revival with a resident there, but is again dismissed. He refuses to leave, asking to see [[Glacine]], the village's chief. She and her son [[Luis]] are on a cliff working to find herbs with his {{p|Lillipup}}'s help. Below, on an ice shelf, a group of {{p|Beartic}} become agitated when a giant iceberg collides with the ice. The cliff fractures, causing Luis to fall; then, as his mother and the first resident are trying to rescue him, the ice they are standing upon breaks off, stranding all of them in the path of the iceberg. Damon's Gothitelle saves Luis's Lillipup from falling into the water, and then Damon himself appears with {{OBP|Zekrom|movie 14}} to destroy the iceberg. Damon and Zekrom reiterate their proposal, and, awed by the display, Glacine and her village reconsider.

===Finding Victini===
Near Eindoak Town, Ash, {{an|Iris}} and Cilan find a pair of {{p|Deerling}} in danger on a cliff face. Ash attempts to rescue them but begins to fall himself; however, he is rescued when {{OBP|Victini|movie 14}} touches his foot out of his sight, giving him the ability to jump hundreds of feet across the canyon. Now separated from his stunned friends, Ash agrees to meet Iris and Cilan later and heads into a cave with the two Deerling. Victini shows Ash visions of the path he should take, allowing him to find his way through the cave. He reaches a giant cavern with a mesh of crystal paths, and Ash's presence mysteriously activates an orb and the crystals, before he is guided again to the cellar of Eindoak Town's castle and up to its balcony. There, he reunites with his friends.

Cilan explains that the castle is known as the "[[Sword of the Vale]]", and is said in legend to have flown to its current location from a valley far away. While exploring the castle, Ash, Iris and Cilan share some macarons among themselves, but an invisible Victini keeps stealing Ash's macarons, much to his disbelief. The group hears fireworks outside, which causes Victini to choke on a macaron as the group realizes they must hurry to the town's battle tournament. In the ruckus, Ash runs into the invisible Victini—this confuses him for a moment, but he brushes it off. The group encounters a relatively plain-clothed Damon, who introduces himself as the castle's caretaker and offers to escort them to the town, which they accept.

In the town square, the group meets a woman named [[Juanita]], who runs a Victini-themed souvenir stand with her {{p|Golurk}} (which is {{Shiny}} in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram''). The town's mayor, [[Mannes]], gives a speech to the townspeople congratulating them for the bountiful harvest they have collected. Mannes sends his {{p|Klink}}, {{p|Klang}} and {{p|Klinklang}} into a large music machine, starting the festival. He explains the tournament's rules: each competitor has been given a necklace and must challenge other competitors throughout the town, with losing trainers surrendering their necklaces until the winner emerges.

In the first round of the tournament, Ash faces {{mov|Mako}} and her {{p|Serperior}}, which he defeats with Pikachu's {{m|Electro Ball}}. Iris battles a trainer named [[Tatsuki]] and his {{p|Emboar}} with her {{TP|Iris|Emolga}}, but Emolga uses {{m|Volt Switch}}, forcing {{TP|Iris|Excadrill}} to come out in its place, against the rules; the referee promptly awards the match to Tatsuki. Juanita's daughter, [[Carlita]], and her {{p|Hydreigon}} ({{Shiny}} in ''White—Victini and Zekrom'') quickly dispatches of [[Cilan's Pansage]]. Ash and {{AP|Oshawott}} later battle Tatsuki and defeat Emboar with {{m|Aqua Jet}}.

Ash sends {{AP|Tepig}} to face [[Leeku]] and his {{p|Samurott}}, and Samurott's {{m|Razor Shell}} effortlessly smashes Tepig into Juanita's stand of Victini trinkets. However, Victini covertly appears and powers up Tepig, allowing it to defeat Samurott with an absurdly powerful {{m|Ember}}. Carlita witnesses this, and, becoming suspicious, challenges Ash. When Ash's {{AP|Scraggy}} attempts to {{m|Headbutt}} Hydreigon, it is knocked into the trees. Carlita sees Victini give Scraggy a powerup, after which Scraggy quickly defeats Hydreigon with a second Headbutt. Carlita surrenders her necklace to the judge, and then confronts Ash, informing the group of Victini's role.

Suspicious that Victini was the one who stole the macarons, Ash uses one to bait it out. It appears, and Ash excitedly tries to befriend it. Victini is initially receptive and playful, but becomes alarmed as Ash swings it around enthusiastically, leaving the Pokémon of the group to coax Victini back to them. As the party travels through town, Victini hesitates in the shadow of giant pillars. Ash tries to force Victini forward, but Victini gets clobbered by a magical barrier around the castle area, delineated by the pillars and preventing Victini's escape. Upset, Victini flees back towards the castle. Later, while looking for Victini with Juanita and Carlita, they run into Mannes and Damon. It is revealed that Damon is Juanita's son and Carlita's older brother. He has been traveling and has not contacted Juanita in some time, which she reprimands him for. Carlita attempts to cheer him by telling him about Victini's appearance, but he says he already knew.

===Legends of the Vale===
At Mannes's home, Victini is found leading a group of other Pokémon. Inside, Mannes relays the legend of the tribe now known as the People of the Vale: one thousand years ago, they were a prosperous people who lived in a place called the Kingdom of the Vale, in a valley where the Sword of the Vale originally resided. They used a power in the earth called the "[[Dragon Force]]" to enrich their land, and all was well. However, one day, the twin sons of the [[King of the People of the Vale|king]]—the Hero of Truth, who controlled Reshiram, and the Hero of Ideals, who controlled Zekrom—began a war over their beliefs. Reshiram and Zekrom battled and drained each others' strength, and then turned into orbs called "{{DL|Legendary artifacts|Dragon Stones}}". The kingdom was devastated, and the Dragon Force corrupted and chaotic, ravaging the earth instead of healing it. Desperate, the king asked Victini to lend him its power, and he created the "Pillars of Protection" and their barrier to control the flow of that power. Using this system, the king flew the Sword of the Vale, with all of the townspeople inside, out of the Kingdom of the Vale to a nearby mountaintop. There, the castle calmed the flow of the Dragon Force. However, soon after the castle landed, the king died, while the Pillars of Protection remained. The two regretful princes hid the Dragon Stones deep within the caverns of the Sword of the Vale.

While watching Ash and his friends play with Victini, Damon informs his mother that her dream—that the People of the Vale could one day live again in the Kingdom of the Vale, as relayed in a flashback—can now come true. He intends to borrow Victini's power just as the king did, and return the Sword of the Vale to its rightful place. Inside, without Ash and his friends, Damon relays his journeys over the past three years. Damon visited the scattered tribal settlements of the People of the Vale to try to find support for his dream to reclaim the land that was the Kingdom of the Vale. He was always rebuffed, until one day he heard a voice emanating from the chambers under the Sword of the Vale. He and Mannes investigated, walking on a crystal path when, inexplicably, the two found themselves separated onto different paths. Damon went on alone to find his [[legendary]] {{t|dragon}}, and with it as his ally, he demonstrated the truth of the legend and his dragon's power by helping the leaders of the settlements. (Here, each version of the movie briefly shows Damon's dragon like in the opening of the other version—Zekrom assisting in the desert in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'', and Reshiram in the tundra in ''White—Victini and Zekrom''.) The leaders agreed to help him—and as if on cue, they appear in Mannes's study in support of Damon's goal: the resurrection of the Kingdom of the Vale.

Victini dreams about its millennium trapped in the Pillars of Protection, witnessing the establishment and growth of Emolak Town. The dream ends with the spirit of the king returning to apologize for the trap, then saying goodbye and fading away; Ash inexplicably experiences the dream as well, and is awoken. Victini takes Ash, Iris, and Cilan to a balcony, where it shows them the sunrise over an ocean shore; Ash comes to understand that Victini wishes to go to the shore, and promises to take it.

===Conflict===
Meanwhile, at the Sword of the Vale, Juanita and Carlita watch as Damon prepares to execute his plan on the observation deck of the castle. He sends out his {{p|Sigilyph}}, and it takes its place in a mechanism atop the chamber. Sigilyph's power awakens the thousands of {{p|Solosis}} and {{p|Duosion}} in the lower chambers of the castle, and in turn, the Pillars of Protection activate, rise, and begin to travel towards the castle. Alarmed, Victini flees from the ever-constricting barrier, eventually flying to the castle, where Damon requests that it lend him its power. As Damon reminds Victini of the king, it is briefly cooperative until it gets caught in another, smaller barrier. The smaller pillars force it into a mechanism that begins draining Victini's power, using it to power up the Solosis and Duosion. As Ash, Iris, and Cilan arrive, the castle slowly ascends into the sky, and the healthy Dragon Force flows out, returning to the Kingdom of the Vale and beginning to restore it.

Ash, Iris, Cilan, Juanita, and Carlita rush into the main chamber and find Damon torturing Victini. Horrified that this was her son's plan, Juanita demands he stop, which shocks and upsets him. When Ash attempts to destroy the machine draining Victini's power, Damon attacks the group with his Reuniclus or Gothitelle. Damon's Reshiram or Zekrom then arrives, and Juanita attempts to fight the dragon with Golurk, but Golurk is defeated easily. Ash once again tries to climb the mechanism, but Damon's {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon knocks him out.

While unconscious, Ash receives a vision from Victini, of the king warning Victini to never let the Sword of the Vale be moved again, because if it is, the Dragon Force would return to run amok, causing a repeat of the disaster that struck the Kingdom of the Vale, and threatening the entire world. This has already begun, but with the castle now above the clouds, Damon and his dragon are unaware of it happening. Ash awakens in the cellar of the castle, and Juanita begs him to forgive Damon, as he truly believes he is doing the right thing. She then reveals that one thing can stop Damon's dragon: the other dragon, which should still be deep in the castle's dungeons, where had Ash passed through at the beginning of the film. As the group explores the crystal cavern, Ash and Pikachu soon find themselves suddenly separated, as Damon had been; Ash and Pikachu go on alone. A voice challenges Ash, and then the paths begin to collapse, forcing him to the bottom of the cavern. There, he finds the Dragon Stone, and hears a voice asking him for his ideal (''White—Victini and Zekrom'') or truth (''Black—Victini and Reshiram''). He answers that he wants to save Victini and fulfill his promise, satisfying the voice, which reveals itself to be Zekrom (in ''White—Victini and Zekrom'') or Reshiram (in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'').

Mannes arrives, and meets Juanita, Carlita, Iris, and Cilan, having flown to the castle in a helicopter powered by his Klink, Klang, and Klinklang. He warns the group of the disaster on the surface, but by now they already know. Golurk returns to again fight Reshiram or Zekrom, but fails; however, the dragon's finishing blow is deflected by its opposite, which arrives with Ash riding on it. Ash jumps off at the courtyard of the castle, and then Zekrom and Reshiram engage in an epic battle in the sky. Inside the castle, Pikachu engages Reuniclus or Gothitelle.

Finally, Ash's dragon defeats Damon's, forcing it below the clouds, where they both witness the unfolding tragedy of the deadly Dragon Force. Pikachu defeats Reuniclus or Gothitelle and Ash climbs the mechanism, but Damon's dragon returns before he can destroy the barrier around Victini. Damon orders it to stop Ash, but it ignores him and instead destroys the mechanism to free Victini. Damon's dragon explains to him that it has heard the "land's anger", and then the two dragons blow away the clouds, revealing to Damon the devastation that the Dragon Force has caused. Panicking, Damon immediately becomes remorseful and begs Reshiram and Zekrom to help him stop the disaster. They agree, "lending their power" and redirecting some of the destructive Dragon Force into the Sword of the Vale—this powers up the Pokémon inside much more than Victini did, but also causes the mechanisms throughout the castle to become erratic, including the castle's flight.

===Climax===
Damon directs his family, Mannes, and Ash's group to leave immediately, fearing that the castle may crumble. Damon, meanwhile, insists that he will stay until the disaster is averted and the world is saved. However, when Ash tries to flee, the barrier generated by the Pillars of Protection continues to trap Victini inside, and Ash refuses to leave without it. Iris escapes with Carlita on Hydreigon's back, while Cilan and Juanita board Mannes's helicopter. As the pillars close in, the castle rocks, and Damon is thrown from it. Without warning, the Sword rapidly ascends into the sky, uncontrolled. All the Psychic-type Pokémon flee, leaving Ash, Pikachu, and Victini alone in the castle.

High in the Earth's atmosphere, the castle begins to frost over, and the thin, cold air begins to take a toll on Ash. Damon appears, saved by and now riding his mother's Golurk, while Reshiram and Zekrom attack the Pillars of Protection. But as the pillars are attacked, they are knocked towards each other, constricting even further around Victini. The pillars soon collide and close completely in the castle's courtyard, trapping Ash, Pikachu, and Victini within their walls. Damon tells Ash to hold on, as he is one of the dragons' chosen, and in a desperate bid to save them, Golurk fruitlessly tries to pry the pillars apart with its hands. Reshiram and Zekrom continue to destroy the pillars, but now several layers of pillars are in the way, and it proves too time-consuming. Inside the prison created by the Pillars of Protection, a weak and delirious Ash sadly apologizes to Victini for failing in his promise to take it to the ocean, before it becomes so cold that Ash's tears freeze and he falls unconscious.

Victini decides to use {{m|Searing Shot}}, which is too weak to break apart the pillars, but Ash is warmed and wakes up due to the attack. He witnesses Victini summoning up all of its power to activate {{m|V-create}}, its ultimate move. This finally destroys the Pillars of Protection once and for all, and the chaotic Dragon Force gets ejected into space—but Victini is nowhere to be seen. With the barrier and Dragon Force gone, Damon re-enters the castle and wraps Ash in a blanket that helps keep him alive.

===Closing===
Later, with Reshiram, Zekrom, and Golurk pushing the castle, Damon steers the castle down to the advancing tendril of the deadly Dragon Force. Just as Ash wakes up, he lands the Sword, calming the Dragon Force before it can destroy the entire planet. On the beach, Ash, Iris, and Cilan stare out at the ocean, saddened by the apparent death of Victini. Believing that Victini sacrificed itself to destroy the Pillars of Protection and save him, Ash apologies again before flinging one of Cilan's macarons toward the ocean. However, the macaron suddenly stops in mid-air and is eaten—and Victini reveals itself to be very much alive, now freed from the barrier just as it always dreamed.

Damon falls to his knees, overwhelmed with guilt that his actions had backfired so badly. However, Juanita consoles him by telling him they will have a lot of work to do to rebuild the Kingdom of the Vale. Victini sends Ash a vision of it helping with the rebuilding, and he understands that their time together is at an end. Bidding farewell to Damon, Juanita, Carlita, Mannes, and the other People of the Vale, Ash, Iris, and Cilan depart for new adventures.

During the credits, Damon and Juanita lead the People of the Vale in their reconstruction efforts. A single sprout is seen on the once-dead land in the Kingdom of the Vale, implying that the area can indeed be revived. While traveling, Ash, Iris, and Cilan get caught in a windstorm created by {{p|Tornadus}} (in ''White—Victini and Zekrom'') or a thunderstorm caused by {{p|Thundurus}} (in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram''). They later travel through a town where the [[Team Rocket trio]] watches them from a café, with [[Peg]] passing by as well. Reshiram and Zekrom continue flying throughout the world, appearing in the skies in a variety of places.

==Soundtrack==
The theme songs for the film are [[The Sky]] (Japanese: 宙 -そら-) in ''Black Hero'', and [[The Voice]] (Japanese: 響 -こえ-) in ''White Hero'', both performed by {{wp|Every Little Thing (band)|Every Little Thing}}.

==Differences between the films==
* The major difference between the films is that the main featured Pokémon in ''White—Victini and Zekrom'' is {{p|Zekrom}}, while {{p|Reshiram}} is the main Pokémon of ''Black—Victini and Reshiram''. Ash befriends the said Pokémon in those movies, with Damon using the other Pokémon.
* The World of Pokémon intro, while stylistically the same in both films, feature different Pokémon depending on the version.
* During the World of Pokémon intro, {{AP|Pikachu}} is seen battling a {{p|Throh}} in ''White—Victini and Zekrom'', while in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'', he battles a {{p|Sawk}}.
* {{Ash}}, {{an|Iris}} and {{an|Cilan}} come to a fork in the road at the beginning of both films. In ''White—Victini and Zekrom'', they take the left path, while in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'', they take the right path.
* Pokémon that appear in the background differ depending on the version.
* [[Damon]]'s appearance differs between the two films.
* Damon's Pokémon is {{p|Reuniclus}} in ''White—Victini and Zekrom'', while in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'', it is {{p|Gothitelle}}.
* Damon travels through the desert in ''White—Victini and Zekrom'' (with {{p|Bouffalant}} and the {{p|Blitzle}} evolutionary family appearing in the area), and an icy plain in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'' (where {{p|Beartic}} and {{p|Stoutland}} are in the area, the latter of which are used by the natives).
* In ''White—Victini and Zekrom'', [[Carlita]]'s {{p|Hydreigon}} is a [[Shiny Pokémon]], and [[Juanita]]'s {{p|Golurk}} is colored normally, whereas in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'', this is reversed, with Golurk being the Pokémon who is Shiny.
* Numerous scenes are altered in various ways between the two films. For example, the scene of Damon and Mannes talking at the ruins of the Kingdom of the Vale takes place during the day in ''White—Victini and Zekrom'' but at night in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram''. Other scenes throughout the films are mirrored.
** Some small scenes appear only in one version or the other.
* The background music differs depending on the version, due to having different music composers for each movie. The ending theme also differs, with [[The Sky]] in ''White—Victini and Zekrom'' and [[The Voice]] in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram''.
* In the credits, in ''White—Victini and Zekrom'', {{p|Tornadus}} creates a windstorm that is encountered by Ash and friends; in ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'', {{p|Thundurus}} creates a thunderstorm that is encountered by Ash and friends.

==Events==
[[File:Reshiram Zekrom Movie Distribution Art.png|thumb|Reshiram and Zekrom distribution artwork]]
===Pre-order distribution===
A [[List of Japanese Nintendo event Pokémon in 2011#Eind Victini|special Victini]] is available to people who pre-order tickets to the film in Japan. This Victini will know the previously-unobtainable move {{m|V-create}}, as well as its other [[signature move]], {{m|Searing Shot}}, and the signature moves of {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}}, {{m|Fusion Flare}} and {{m|Fusion Bolt}}.

===Movie distributions===
[[List of Japanese Nintendo event Pokémon in 2011#Satoshi Zekrom|Zekrom]] was made available for players of Black and [[List of Japanese Nintendo event Pokémon in 2011#Satoshi Reshiram|Reshiram]] for players of White. Both will have the [[original Trainer]] サトシ ''[[Ash Ketchum|Satoshi]]''. Both dragons are at [[level]] 100 and know their [[signature move]]s, {{m|Blue Flare}} and {{m|Fusion Flare}}, and {{m|Bolt Strike}} and {{m|Fusion Bolt}}, respectively. Also, Reshiram knows {{m|Mist}} and Zekrom knows {{m|Haze}}, due to the Japanese names for these moves being しろいきり ''White Mist'' and くろいきり ''Black Mist'', respectively.

===Other distributions===
Users of the Japanese-language Global Link could obtain [[List of Pokémon Global Link promotions#C-Gear skins|a C-Gear skin featuring Victini]].

Players of Black could obtain a [[List of Japanese Nintendo event Pokémon in 2011#Carlita Hydreigon|Shiny Hydreigon]], based on [[Carlita]]'s, while players of White could obtain a [[List of Japanese Nintendo event Pokémon in 2011#Juanita Golurk|Shiny Golurk]], based on [[Juanita]]'s.

Users of the Japanese-language Global Link can also obtain one of two C-Gear skins featuring Reshiram or Zekrom, depending on which Pokémon they put to sleep before taking them to the Eindoak Home, which, much like the Pokémon Café Home, is another event exclusive.

==Trivia==
* Director Yuyama Kunihiko scouted locations in {{wp|France}} (including {{wp|Nice}}, {{wp|Gourdon, Alpes-Maritimes|Gourdon}}, {{wp|Tourrettes-sur-Loup}} and {{wp|Mont Saint-Michel}}) as part of pre-production for this movie.
* This movie premiered in Japanese theaters between ''[[BW039|Reunion Battles In Nimbasa!]]'' and ''[[BW040|Cilan Versus Trip, Ash Versus Georgia!]]'', although since both were part of the four-part [[Club Battle]] arc, it's doubtful the movie actually took place then. The movie more likely took place shortly before or after the Club Battle arc.
** Due to the skipping of [[BW023 (unaired)|two]] [[BW024 (unaired)|episodes]] and the moving of ''[[BW037|A Fishing Connoisseur in a Fishy Competition!]]'', the films were likely originally meant to debut between ''[[BW036|Archeops in the Modern World!]]'' and ''[[BW038|Movie Time! Zorua in "The Legend of the Pokémon Knight"!]]''.
* These are the first movies in which {{an|Brock}} does not appear; he made a cameo appearance in ''[[M02|The Power of One]]''.
* If both versions are counted together, these films debut 34 new Pokémon, more than any other film in the series.
* This is the second time when two Pokémon movies debuted within the same year in the US.
* Several short scenes were removed from the Cartoon Network airing of ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'' on December 10, 2011 to reduce the film's total running time. These included the appearance of {{p|Gothita}}, {{p|Gothorita}} and their trainer, the entrances of several of the Pokémon in Mannes's garden such as {{p|Cottonee}}, a shot of Damon's face as he explains his plans for the People of the Vale, and Mannes's {{p|Klink}} and {{p|Klang}} installing themselves in the music machine.
** Several of these scenes were restored for the February 11, 2012 airing of ''White—Victini and Zekrom'', but other additional cuts were made.
* The mother and daughter characters first shown in ''[[M08|Lucario in the Mystery of Mew]]'' make a cameo in these movies as well, appearing right after Ash defeated [[Tatsuki]].

===Dub edits===
*The title card sequence removes the animation of Zekrom or Reshiram unfolding its wings.
*The opening song is ''[[Black and White (song)|Black and White Theme]]'', a full-length version of the dub's opening song. ''[[The Sky]]'' and ''[[The Voice]]'' are replaced as the ending songs by ''[[Follow Your Star|Follow Your Star (Ideals Mix)]]'' in ''White-Victini and Zekrom'', and ''Follow Your Star (Truth Mix)'' in ''Black-Victini and Reshiram''.
*The credits remove the Victini-themed tarot cards that appear in one sequence, replacing them with a full-screen version of the Tornadus/Thundurus scenes.
*The cut of ''White—Victini and Zekrom'' that aired on Cartoon Network on February 11, 2012 featured several edits to the credits at the beginning and end of the film: the opening credits were moved to the World of Pokémon segment, the ''Black and White Theme'' sequence was therefore textless, and the closing credits were played over a black screen without any of the clips normally featured.

===Errors===
* In both movies, just before Victini reveals itself to the group, Ash asks Victini if it lent him its powers. When Ash says this, his lips do not move with the rest of his mouth.

'''Green''' (Japanese: '''ブルー''' ''Blue'') is the third main character of the {{pkmn|manga}} series [[Pokémon Adventures]]. Her first {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} was a {{p|Jigglypuff}}. As a young child, she was kidnapped by {{p|Ho-Oh}} and raised by the evil [[Masked Man]], where she met and became close with {{adv|Silver}}. (This kidnapping led to her {{wp|ornithophobia}}, which is not cured until the end of the GSC saga.) The two of them escaped, and Green went to [[Kanto]], where she stole {{adv|Professor Oak}}’s {{p|Squirtle}}.

Green is quite cunning and quick-witted. She can talk others into believing a bold-faced lie and talk her way out of many tight situations. At one point, she convinces {{adv|Red}} to buy a bunch of useless items for [[Pika|his Pikachu]]. Green is also a master of disguise, she uses her {{p|Ditto}} as a mask and is able to make herself look like anyone she wants.

Green’s special skill, as defined by Professor Oak, is [[evolution|evolving]]; she is known as the “'''Evolver'''” (化える者 ''Evolver''). However, until recently she refrained from evolving her Pokémon, because she preferred to lull her opponents into a false sense of security by using unevolved “cute” Pokémon. The special skills of Green and Silver are homophonous in Japanese.

The original Green was designed after the early sketches for a {{tc|Lass}} and [[Pokémon Red and Green beta#Female player character|a female protagonist]] shown in early concept art for {{game|Red and Green|s}}; however, the idea of choosing the character’s gender was unable to be implemented until {{game|Crystal}} due to technological limitations of the time. When a female player character from Kanto finally appeared in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, Green changed her clothes to match {{ga|Leaf}}’s in-game appearance.

==Character history==
{{Spoilers}}
===Background===
A native of [[Pallet Town]], Green was kidnapped by an {{p|Ho-Oh|unknown, flying Pokémon}} when she was only five years old, on the orders of the Masked Man. She was taken to a Secret Hideout in the [[Hoenn]] region, where the Masked Man gave her a Jigglypuff and began to train her as one of his underlings. There, she met {{adv|Silver}}, her partner, and developed a close bond with him. A few years later, the two children escaped from the Masked Man’s Hideout and then parted ways. Before escaping, she stole the {{DL|List of key items in Generation II|Rainbow Wing}} and the {{DL|List of key items in Generation II|Silver Wing}} from the Masked Man, forcing him to seek them out again in order to craft a [[GS Ball|mythical ball]].

Green spent years traveling alone until she discovered she was from [[Pallet Town]], where {{adv|Red|two}} {{adv|Blue|boys}} her age had each received a starter Pokémon and [[Pokédex]], and set out on a journey. Frustrated, she broke into Professor Oak’s laboratory and stole a {{p|Squirtle}}.

==={{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}===
[[File:Green RBY Adventures.png|thumb|left|Green in the first chapter]]
When Green first meets Red, she scams him out of his money by selling him fake items using her beauty and flattery. Red hunts her down to reclaim his money, but she takes this as an opportunity to steal his [[badge]]s. Red’s Pokédex reveals that her Wartortle is the evolved form of Squirtle, a Pokémon stolen from Professor Oak. Later, she is seen surrounded by a group of [[Team Rocket]] members, having stolen from them a floppy disk containing information about {{p|Mew}}. She sends out [[Ditty]], and in the confusion of Red saving her from an opponent’s {{p|Tauros}}, it is able to switch with Tauros. Green then uses that Pokémon’s special ability to make the enemy forces defeat themselves. She claims she wants to catch Mew because she thinks that it is “the cutest Pokémon ever”, but it is soon revealed that she really just wants it for money. While the two of them go hunting for Mew, she has Ditty {{m|Transform}} into Mew to fool the pursuing Team Rocket. They quickly discover the hoax, and in the ensuing battle Mew gets away. Green then departs, telling Red she plans on selling her photographs of Mew to newspapers, but she does leave behind the badges as thanks.

[[File:Green Adventures RGB.png|250px|thumb|right|Green’s original design]]
She is next seen trying – and failing – to sweet-talk her way into [[Saffron City]]. After attempting to infiltrate from the air with her {{p|Jigglypuff}}, she spots {{Adv|Blue}} and tells him about the barrier around the city, suggesting that they team up. She later convinces Red and Blue to work cooperate so that they unwittingly do all of the work for her, and all three enter Saffron city. She slips through the back door of Silph Co. and is able to go right up to 3F, where she encounters [[Sabrina]]. Sabrina uses her psychic abilities to play vicious mind games, but Green finally gets away by letting Sabrina's Kadabra slash her dress, releasing the Pokémon in the balls strapped to her chest (this visually suggestive sequence is edited out of VIZ Media's second edition, released under their VIZKids imprint). Green has Jigglypuff use {{m|Sing}} to immobilize Sabrina, then uses [[Ditty]] to impersonate her and reaches the room with the Badge Energy Amplifier. She is almost attacked by Red, but Pika knows her scent. Green reveals that she took a Marsh Badge from the defeated Psychic Gym Leader and trades it for Red’s Moon Stone. She takes the Amplifier from Red after doesn’t work with his badges – the ones she “returned” to him after the Mew incident were actually fakes. She then puts all 7 of the ''real'' badges into the Amplifier, believing it will create a rare new species of Pokémon; but it actually fuses the 3 [[legendary birds]] into [[Zapmolcuno|a monstrosity]]. She is knocked out while battling against it with Red and Blue, but Red takes the Moon Stone and evolves her Clefairy into a Clefable. After a long fight, the creature is defeated by the combined forces of [[Blasty]], [[Blue's Charizard]], and the newly evolved [[Saur]].

Afterwards, she manages to get into the 9th Pokémon League tournament, breezing through the qualifying elimination rounds. Green makes it to the semifinals, but is defeated by Professor Oak (under the pseudonym Doctor O), who knows her weakness: she has ornithophobia and is afraid of {{t|Flying|bird}} Pokémon because of her kidnapping. He exploits her fear by using a team of bird Pokémon to defeat her. He then reveals to her that he participated in the search a girl who was kidnapped from Pallet Town by a {{p|Ho-Oh|large bird Pokémon}}; and when, years later, he saw the face from the photos on his lab security camera stealing a {{p|Squirtle}}, he knew he had to talk to her and remind her that stealing is wrong. She confesses, and Professor Oak forgives her for stealing Squirtle, bestowing on her the last [[Pokédex]].

==={{chap|Yellow}}===
[[File:Green Y chapter.png|thumb|right|150px|Green in the second chapter]]
Green is first seen in the shadows listening to the battle between Yellow and Lorelei. When Yellow tells Lorelei her name, Green calls her an idiot; she had explicitly instructed Yellow to conceal her identity, but then says,"Oh well, I knew it would be revealed eventually." She is then seen after Yellow and Bill escape Lorelei. Green attacks the ice specialist’s hand with Horsea to prevent her from giving chase. She then disappears.

She pays Bill an unwanted visit, explaining that she trained {{adv|Yellow}} and disguised her as a boy, providing Yellow’s signature straw hat – which is bugged so that Green can hear and locate her. Green believes the Elite Four are controlling {{p|Ho-Oh|the bird that kidnapped her}} after a report from {{adv|Silver}}, so she declares them her enemies. She wants look at Bill’s transport system to check {{adv|Red}}’s recent withdrawals. Since [[Pika]] is with Yellow, Green believes Red will want to replace him with another Pokémon. Bill grudgingly allows it – after she ties him up. She sees that Red did indeed and withdraw [[Vee]], but before she can find out at which [[Pokémon Center]] transaction took place, Bruno’s {{p|Hitmonlee}} arrives and smashes the computer. After giving chase and following it a long way, Green defeats Hitmonlee; only to realize that he was simply a decoy to keep them away from Lance in Vermilion City.

Later, they arrive at Cerise Island and meet up with Yellow. The three stealthily navigate the island by having Jigglypuff fly them across shrouded in Horsea’s {{m|SmokeScreen}}; however Yellow’s map is dropped and a Slowbro eats it. They follow Slowbro to a cave and find Blaine, Blue, Koga, Sabrina, and Lt. Surge. Sabrina uses the [[Spoons of Destiny]] to assign pairs so they can split up and go after the enemy; she herself is partnered with Green. They battle [[Lorelei]], who she uses her ice voodoo dolls to bind Green and Sabrina together at the wrists. Since the two do not work well together, Green is quickly knocked out, and Sabrina finds herself carrying dead weight. Sabrina stalls for a while, and Green regains consciousness just in time to have Blasty propel them up so they won’t fall off a cliff. Lorelei says that she attacked Green first because of the humiliation that Green caused her when she first battled Yellow; Green recounts her tale of training Yellow, creating a distraction so that her Clefable can use {{m|Minimize}} to get the dolls. However, the dolls break, separating Green’s arm from her body. In truth Ditto has been impersonating her arm since she arrived on the island, and Ditto takes advantage of the deception to tie up Lorelei from behind. This angers Sabrina, who could’ve gotten out of the ice cuffs instead of carrying Green around for the whole battle.

Green eventually learns she was wrong about the bird and asks Silver to continue his investigations in [[Johto]].

==={{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}===
[[File:Green GSC chapter.png|thumb|left|150px|Green in the third chapter]]
At first Green is only mentioned; she is said to has continued her journey in order to overcome her phobia. It’s later revealed that traveled throught [[Kanto]], [[Johto]] and some [[Sevii Islands|southern islands]] in order to capture the [[legendary birds]].

Late in the storyline, Green reappears in person when her relationship with Silver is disclosed: as children, she and Silver escaped from the Masked Man, who used Ho-Oh and {{p|Lugia}} to kidnap them along with [[Will]], [[Sham]], [[Karen]], and [[Carl]]. After some investigation, she decides to fight the [[Masked Man]] in the [[Ilex Forest]], telling {{adv|Silver}} not to participate. Forced to battle the other kidnapping victims, who are now the Masked Man’s underlings; Green, along with the other [[Pokédex holder]]s, confronts {{p|Ho-Oh}} and {{p|Lugia}}. She finally overcomes her fear, and uses the [[legendary birds]] to help defeat the Masked Man.

==={{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}===
[[File:Green E chapter.png|thumb|right|150px|Green in the sixth chapter]]

From this chapter onwards, she wears the new LeafGreen costume (skirt, top and hat) that Silver gave her.

More of Green's past is revealed in this chapter, including how she, along with {{adv|Silver}} [[PS268|managed to escape]] from the clutches of the [[Masked Man]]. She finally learns that her parents have moved to the [[Sevii Islands]] and resolves to reunite with them. Before she can, both they and Professor Oak are kidnapped by {{p|Deoxys}}. In the struggle against the Deoxys and the revived Team Rocket, her Pokémon finally evolve to their final stages and Blasty learns the legendary {{type2|Water}} move – {{m|Hydro Cannon}}. At the end of this saga, she is turned to stone along with four other Pokédex holders.

==={{chap|Emerald}}===
For most of this chapter, she, along with four other Pokédex holders, remain petrified. It is only near the end of the chapter that she and the others are revived by {{adv|Emerald}} with the help of the wish-granting [[legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Jirachi}}.

==Pokémon==
Most of Green’s Pokémon nicknames, with the exception of Puriri, contain syllables from the species’ Japanese name, followed by a Japanese honorific. “Puriri” comes from Jigglypuff’s Japanese name, Purin.

==Trivia==
*Green’s Pokémon were unnamed in [[VIZ Media]]’s English translations of [[Pokémon Adventures]]. They were first given English nicknames in [[Chuang Yi]]’s translations of the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}. Even in the Chuang Yi version, her {{p|Jigglypuff}} does not have an English nickname. This was later attributed to a memory of the Masked Man telling her not to nickname it when she was very young.
*Green and {{adv|Blue}} are the only main Pokémon Adventures characters whose names were changed for the English translation. This is due to the complexity of [[Generation I]]’s game releases, where in Japan, Red Version was paired with Green Version (leaving Blue as the third), and in the rest of the world Red was paired with Blue (while there was no Green). Since she was not {{adv|Red}}’s rival, the translators did not see it fitting that she have her name be that of Red’s “rival version”. This name change is present in both the VIZ Media and Chuang Yi translations. Later, [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen]] would be released as remakes of the original Pokémon Red and Blue/Green, and unlike the original games, the remakes would feature a playable female character which Green is based on.
**A panel in the original VIZ printing of {{PAV|3}} forgets to make this change, however. When the Pokémon League scoreboard is shown, Red’s rival is identified as “GREEN” and Green is identified as “BLUE”. This error was still present in the “[[The Best of Pokémon Adventures#Red volume|Best of Pokémon Adventures]]” compilation volume, but was corrected for the 2009 second edition.
*Green shares her {{wp|astrological sign}} with {{adv|Emerald}}; they are both {{wp|Gemini (astrology)|Gemini}}.

==Errors==
*In {{PAV|15}}, Green's {{p|Snubbull}} (now a {{p|Granbull}}) was listed as male, while in {{PAV|24}} it was mistakenly listed as female.

Pokémon Dollar

2012-02-22T22:50:51Z

Pokequesthero: /* In the anime */

[[File:XD PDA open.jpg|thumb|right|[[Michael]] starts off with {{PDollar}}10,000]]
'''Pokémon Dollar''' (Japanese: '''ポケドル''' ''Pokédollar'') is the currency used in all known [[region]]s of the [[Pokémon world]]. Its symbol is {{PDollar}}, a P with a double strikethrough, similar to the ¥ symbol used for {{wp|Japanese yen}}, with the P symbol referring to Pokémon.

The Pokémon Dollar and its symbol were both created for the English translation of the {{pkmn|games}}. In the original Japanese versions (except for Colosseum and XD), the currency used is yen and the symbol used is {{tt|円|えん}}, the kanji for yen.

The cost of simple items runs in the hundreds—indeed, most items have prices that are multiples of 100 or 1000, which is not unlike the Japanese yen. This is likely due to the fact that in the Japanese games, the currency is yen.

==Acquisition==
Pokémon Dollars are acquired primarily by defeating [[Pokémon Trainer]]s in battle, or by selling items at a [[Poké Mart]]. Pokémon Dollars can also be acquired by using the move {{m|Pay Day}} in battle, at the rate of either 2 or 5 times the level of the Pokémon using it, depending on the generation.

==Storage==
In the handheld [[Pokémon games]] before [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|Pokémon Black and White]], a player's wallet can hold only up to {{PDollar}}999,999. This may cause frustration when trying to save up for the advertised price of a [[Bicycle]] in [[Generation I]] (and its [[Generation III]] remakes) or a [[Slowpoketail]] on {{rt|32|Johto}} in [[Generation II]] (and its [[Generation IV]] remakes), since both are advertised for {{PDollar}}1 more than the player can carry. The [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]] games and [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|Pokémon Black and White]] allow players to carry seven-digit figures of money.

==Alternate names==
Other names that fans have come up with for the monetary note over the years have been "Poké Dollars", "Credits", "PokéMoney", "Pocket Money", "Zenny", "PokéYen", "Pen" or "Pyen". Most fans simply refer to them as "dollars". However, according to {{g|Colosseum}} and {{Pokémon XD}}, the official name for them is Pokémon Dollars.

==Other currencies==
{{main|:Category:Currency}}
The {{OBP|Pokémon World|Mystery Dungeon|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon World}} uses [[Poké]] as its sole form of currency. [[Mt. Battle]] and [[Pokétopia]] use [[Poké Coupon]]s as their currency; due to both of these locations being battle facilities, they are analogous to [[Battle Point]]s.

==In the anime==
Pokémon Dollars are not used or seen in the [[Pokémon anime]], whether the original or the English dub, although money has been mentioned throughout the anime and the yen symbol (changed to a dollar symbol in the dub) appears on a restaurant bill in an [[EP005|early episode]].

==Trivia==
* The symbol for {{PDollar}} resembles an unofficial but often-used symbol for the {{wp|Russian ruble}} currency—the {{wp|Cyrillic}} letter {{wp|Р}} with a horizontal stroke and an extended curved line. It can also be seen to resemble one way of writing the symbol for {{wp|Philippine peso}}, the official currency of the {{wp|Philippines}}.

Pokequesthero: /* Intro */

Hello! This is Pokequesthero. Apparently, this username can be broken up into three parts: ''poke'', which means related to Pokémon; ''quest'', which means I'm on a Pokémon journey; and ''hero'', which means I'm a protagonist. I love Pokémon from the latest Black and White video games; my favorites are Oshawott and Reshiram. Despite that Pikachu isn't commonly found in Black and White, it is my #1 favorite Pokémon of the entire National Pokédex. I have two books called ''How to Draw Unova Heroes'' and ''Pokémon Black and White Versions Handbook''.

I don't really like the official anime that much, but I love the opening theme songs. I sing at least one every day, and my favorite is the ninth one, called "Battle Frontier". I also like songs that are not theme songs, such as "Viridian City". Pokémon music is just as awesome as Pokémon drawing. I am currently working on a Pokémon comic book (drawn manga-style, read left to right), about a final epic Pokémon League Battle against my rival. The how-to-draw book and handbook I have helps me, as well as an art set, a pack of colored pencils, and a mechanical pencil.

When the episode starts {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{Tracey}} are traveling to [[Pallet Town]], they are all excited to be back, especially Tracey who is looking forward to meeting {{an|Professor Oak}} and can't wait to show him his many sketchbooks.

When Ash arrives home, Misty and Ash are surprised to see {{an|Brock}} waiting for them in the house. They are confused as to why Brock had left [[Professor Ivy]] back on [[Valencia Island]]. He gives no reason as to why he left and when Ash and Misty mention Professor Ivy, Brock falls to the ground shivering saying "Don't mention that name..." ominously. Misty theorizes that she dumped him. [[Delia Ketchum|Mrs. Ketchum]] arrives home and explains how Brock came here: She and [[Mimey]] found him on the ground in a grassland and took him home once she realizes who he was. Since then Brock has been helping around the house, with Brock fighting over the chores with Mimey.

Whilst discussing dinner, Tracey insists on seeing Professor Oak. Ash is reminded of the [[GS Ball]] and shows Mrs. Ketchum his trophy, which she suggests she could use as a dumbbell.

Ash, {{AP|Pikachu}}, Misty, Tracey and Brock travel to Professor Oak's laboratory with {{TRT}} watching from a distance. Ash is welcomed to the house by his {{AP|Muk}} who is crushing Professor Oak under his weight. Tracey ignores the situation and asks to show Professor Oak his sketches.

Ash hands Professor Oak the GS Ball and he puts it away to examine it later. Professor Oak then shows them around the Laboratory. Tracey sketches every {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} he sees and shows Professor Oak his sketches. Tracey nervously awaits Oaks approval, though he whispers to Brock that he "hasn't seen all the sketches so far but...". He is interrupted by {{MTR}} activating a circus net that engulfs the Laboratory. Meanwhile {{an|Jigglypuff}} appears and tries to go through the net though it can't.

Inside the net, Team Rocket are in and perform the {{motto}} while doing a circus act. They try to steal Pikachu, but Ash sends out his Muk to attack {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}}. Muk ignores the Lickitung and goes on to hug Jessie. James sends out his {{TP|James|Victreebel}}, which again Muk hugs. James tries his luck with {{m|Razor Leaf}} but it "just didn't cut it." as said in the episode. Victreebel tries to swallow Ash's Muk but it uses {{m|Poison Gas}} before it can use {{m|PoisonPowder}}. Lickitung uses {{m|Lick}} on Muk but it does nothing.

James commands Victreebel to use {{m|Sleep Powder}} on Muk which works, much to Ash's surprise. Ash switches to {{AP|Squirtle}} and {{AP|Bulbasaur}}. Team Rocket then throws rings around Ash, Misty, Pikachu, Professor Oak, Brock and Tracey which stops them from moving. A [[Team Rocket's Mechas|Super Sucker]] then proceeds to suck in every [[Poké Ball]] that are in the Laboratory, including Tracey's Sketchbooks. Meowth asks again why Brock came back, though he doesn't give an answer. The last ball sucked in is the GS Ball, but then a rip in the tent appears, caused by a mysterious man and his [[Gary%27s_Nidoqueen#Nidoqueen|Nidoqueen]]. [[Team Rocket's Mechas|The Meowth Balloon]] falls to the ground, releasing every Poké Ball in it.

The mysterious man turns out to be {{Gary}} and the Nidoqueen attacks Lickitung by grabbing its tongue and swinging it into Team Rocket. Meowth tries using {{m|Scratch}} but it doesn't work, only breaking his claws. Gary tells his Nidoqueen to strike back, hurling Team Rocket into the air.

Ash and Gary start a battle to prove who has become the better Trainer over the past months.

==Trivia==
* This episode's dub title is a reference to the phrase, "A Tense Situation."
*The book ''[[Go West, Young Ash]]'' is based on this episode.
*At one point, Misty says "Sometimes you're so immature as Gary," and so Ash did what Brock is doing throughout the episode (curling up in a ball saying "Don't mention that name."), which Misty replies, "Come on Ash! Quit acting like Brock!"

===Errors===
* This episode claims that this is the first time that Tracey has ever met {{an|Professor Oak}} or {{Delia}}. However this contradicts ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'' movie where Professor Oak, Delia, and [[Professor Ivy]] travel to [[Shamouti Island]] and met up with Ash, Misty, and Tracey himself at the end of the movie. This also contradicts ''[[EP084|The Lost Lapras]]'' since Tracey saw Oak on the phone monitor, and even went as far as to introduce himself as "Tracey Sketchit", and had a full conversation with him about {{TP|Tracey|Scyther}} in ''[[EP097|Tracey Gets Bugged]]''.
* When Ash sends out his {{AP|Tauros}}, it is sent out from a regular Poké Ball, instead of the Safari Ball it was captured in.
*{{Delia}} in one scene calls Tracey "Miss Tracey", even though Tracey is male.

===Dub edits===
*In the scene where Delia is accidentally trampling Brock she does not recognize him until he looks up. In the original she recognizes Brock before he looks up.
* Ash commanded {{AP|Muk}} to use Poison Gas in the English dub. In the original Japanese version, Ash said "Betbeton!" (Muk's Japanese name).
* When James ordered his Victreebel to attack Ash's Muk, in the dub he told it to "get stuck on Muk". In the original he commanded it to use {{m|Double-Edge}}.

Talk:Pokémon Dollar

2012-01-22T02:15:13Z

Pokequesthero: /* Intro */

Zenny? that's from MegaMan Battle Network! Who came up with that? [[User:Coppro|Coppro]] 14:32, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Zenny is actually a currency used in most RPGs. [[user:Mkt_ranma|Mkt_ranma]]

I thought it was obvious from the Japanese version of the games (except for Colo) that the currency was yen. --[[User:Ketsuban|Ketsuban]]

That is true. Should have mentioned it. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 22:59, 17 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Hehe, I've always called them '''Credits''', I never liked "Dollars" or "Yen" because Pokémon is not in our world. I'm sure I'm not the only ones who refers to them as credits. Has anyone else? - [[User:Ferret|Ferret]] 16:52, 7 May 2005 (UTC)

Seeing as the symbol isn't a real currency (at least I don't think so), I don't think they should be called by 'dollars', 'yen' or any other real world currency, 'credits' doesn't sound right either, however it's better than calling them 'dollars' or 'yen' (or 'PokéDollars' or 'PokéYen') - [[User:MTC|MTC]] 18:54, 7 May 2005 (UTC)

Credits is just a catch all, generally sci-fi term for universal currency, I always thought it was perfect and still do. - [[User:Ferret|Ferret]] 19:20, 7 May 2005 (UTC)

Since in [[Pokémon Colosseum]], Nintendo revealed the currency's name as '''Pokémon Dollars''', I'm gonna move this page to that entry. [[User:TTEchidna|Tom Temprotran]] 04:38, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

What does the Japanese version of Colosseum say where "Pokémon Dollars" is in the English version? -[[User:Happy Mask Man|Happy Mask Man]] 03:53, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

didnt they call them poké in pokemon channel? [[user:kittenchild|kittenchild]]
:Yes [[User:Cal05000|Cal05000]] 19:40, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure that it says 円 (yen), because the currency in Japanese versions of main games was yen. Unless the currency in Orre is different, though I doubt it. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 19:31, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
:Well, in the Japanese version of XD, it seems that they use [[Image:Pokébuck sign.gif]] like in the English and other versions, and not the yen sign... [[a:Image:XD PDA open.jpg|Check it out.]] It also says ポケドル, which translates as Pokédollar... '''[[User:TTEchidna|TTE]][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 19:46, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Then, Orre has different currency (at least in Japanese version). Hell! I hate when Japanese producers are "borrowing" several things from English versions! I hate it! --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 19:50, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
:Could mean Orre after all is... In America. But I still like to think it is around Hiroshima. This is disturbing information. However, Orre was not created by our friends from Game Freak, so who knows? ... ... ... Oh yeah, I know I'm responding to a comment that's almost a year old. [[slowpoke (Pokémon)|Yeah]]. [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] 05:23, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

A lot of people, including me, have always believed that the official name for the Pokémon Dollar was 'Pyen'.
I'm very surprised to see no mention of the term here up until now.--[[User:Arima|Arima]] 12:21, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

I read from [[PS015|''Wartortle Wars'']], the fifteenth round of ''[[Pokémon Adventures]]'', that the currency is called "smackers". The word was in [[Red (Adventures)|Red]]'s speech bubble when he yelled at [[Green (Adventures)|Green]] to give his "6000 Smackers" back after he accidently bought fake Pokémon items from her. From [[User:Pokequesthero|Pokequesthero]] 02:15, 22 January 2012 (UTC).

== PD to USD exchange rate ==

I quickly figured out the exchange rate between the Pokédollar and the US Dollar. A can of soda pop costs 300 PD. In America, the average price for a can of soda off of a vending machine is $0.60 USD. Therefore, 500 PD = $1 USD.

See for yourself: I found a vending machine that sold soda at 60¢ here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/23475878@N07/2565805623/sizes/l/

Why won't Kogoro accept it? The fact is there, plain as day. --[[User:Elohssa Naer'uoy|Elohssa Naer'uoy]] 04:14, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
:Didn't I already tell you on your talk page? [[User:Ht14|''ht'']][[User talk:Ht14|''14'']] 04:15, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
::Not everybody will find it as easily as the Pokédollar page. This is relevant to the article, whereas it's less relevant from my talk page. I'd like for more people to discuss this, so I also put it here. --[[User:Elohssa Naer'uoy|Elohssa Naer'uoy]] 04:18, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

:::The reason us sysops don't find your so-called "exchange rate" notable is because all possible exchange rates between in-game currency and real-world currency are speculation, which is highly frowned upon here. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 04:19, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

:A few more notes; for one, I'm on the east coast here, and most vending machines sell soda for different prices, generally above $0.60, which messes up your calculations already. Two, Pokémon is a game created in Japan, so most pricings would need to be based off the Japanese price for soda pop, which I can tell you right now also probably fluctuates based on where it's sold and what sort of soda pop it is. And thirdly, on the note of Japan, Pokémon Dollars are most likely based directly off of Yen, point-for-point. The reason this isn't mentioned in the article is as Shining mentioned; it's merely speculation, not fact, and as such, has no place in an encyclopedic article. --[[user:Jioruji_Derako| '''J'''ïörüjï '''Ð'''ērākō.'''>''']][[user talk:Jioruji Derako|''.cнаt'''''^''']] 04:25, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
::Just like here in Illinois, cans of soda are $1, while bottles are going up to $1.25 and $1.50. And it isn't just the area of the states you live in, the price for soda is different in almost every town or city. [[User:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|R.A. Hunter B.]] 00:49, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
::Of course, when you read the article further, you'll find that the Japanese games just use "yen" anyway... so Jioruji's point is actually quite accurate. [[User:Ztobor|Ztobor]] 15:31, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

==Spanish==
The official spanish name is '''Pokécuarto'''. This name comes from the name of and old spanish currency called '''Cuarto'''. You can see more info in [http://poketeca.com/wiki/Pok%C3%A9cuarto Pokéteca].--[[User:Habieru|Habieru]] 14:45, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

== Money Problems in the Handheld Series ==

'''Generation I'''

The Elite Four and Pay Day are the only Infinite Sources of [[Image:Pokébuck sign.gif]] after every other Trainer in the game is beaten.
As a result, Trainers had to be conservative since money was hard to come by.

'''Generation II'''

Rematch opportunities are provided via the PokéGear "Phone" function, the Trainer House, and Red.
These new features have helped collecting [[Image:Pokébuck sign.gif]] a little less difficult.

'''Generation III'''

The "Trainer's Eyes" function of the PokéNav in Ruby & Sapphire conveniently indicates trainers that want to rematch with a flashing PokéBall Icon next to their name.
Although the Player had to wait one or several days for a rematch and travel far and wide to find and battle with the Rematching Trainers that were scattered in various locations.
As a result, collecting [[Image:Pokébuck sign.gif]] became significantly easier.

The VS Seeker in FireRed & LeafGreen, albeit less convenient than the PokéNav, allowed the player to have rematches with previously beaten Trainers at any time.

'''Generation IV'''

The Hotel Grand Lake Restaurant provides a daily and generous income via 5 double battles in one convenient location.
As a result, money is no longer a problem.
--[[User:Arima|Arima]] 01:18, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

'''Generation V'''

The VS Seeker was abandoned in Black and White, so rebattling trainers for money is no longer possible, except in Black City and Nimbasa City (daily). However, there is a huge source of money in the sale of artifacts from the Abyssal Ruins, as well as other rare items found around Unova. Other than selling items, rebattling the Elite Four, Game Freak Morimoto (daily), and Cynthia (spring only, daily) also give infinite money, although their levels are quite high.
--[[User:Jdthebud|Jdthebud]] 20:54, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

== Trainer payouts ==

I have a section that I'm working on right now on my homepage that I would like to include in either this article or the "Trainer class" article, and is a section on how to calculate how much a trainer will pay you. Click the link in my signature to get to it: [[User:Ztobor|Ztobor]] 15:26, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

Okay, pasted from my page, because I don't think anybody's interested in my user page:

Based on investigation of the data here on Bulbapedia, I've deduced a pattern in the way money is paid out by all Trainers.
(This is most likely not new information, but I haven't found it anywhere else on the site or on other sites, so if it is somewhere, please point me to it.)

The money that each trainer pays to your character is calculated using the following formula:

Money = (Base Payout) * (Level of last Pokemon sent out by the trainer)

The Base Payout is different for each different type of trainer. Here is a list (mostly incomplete because BP is missing information on some of the generations):

===Generation I===

Swimmer: {{pdollar}}5
 Bug Catcher: {{pdollar}}10
 Psychic: {{pdollar}}10
 Lass: {{pdollar}}15
 Youngster: {{pdollar}}15
 Jr. Trainer: {{pdollar}}20
 Black Belt: {{pdollar}}25
 Rocker: {{pdollar}}25
 Super Nerd: {{pdollar}}25
 Channeller: {{pdollar}}30
 Rocket: {{pdollar}}30
 CoolTrainer: {{pdollar}}35
 Hiker: {{pdollar}}35
 Juggler: {{pdollar}}35
 Rival* (First 3 battles): {{pdollar}}35
 Tamer: {{pdollar}}40
 Engineer: {{pdollar}}48
 Pokemaniac: {{pdollar}}50
 Rival* (Next 4 battles): {{pdollar}}65
 Beauty: {{pdollar}}70
 Gentleman: {{pdollar}}70
 Gamer: {{pdollar}}72
 Burglar: {{pdollar}}90
 Boss (Giovanni): {{pdollar}}99
 Gym Leader: {{pdollar}}99
 Elite Four: {{pdollar}}99
 Champion: {{pdollar}}99

Scientist: ??
Cue Ball: ??
Biker: ??
Bird Keeper: ??

*for the Rival, the "last" Pokemon is always the starter Pokemon that (s)he received at the beginning.

A lot of them (the ones marked ??) are missing because I couldn't find information on them on Bulbapedia and because I don't remember personally what they are in the games.

For some odd reason, the Rival pays out {{pdollar}}1330 instead of {{pdollar}}1300 for the fourth battle, on the S.S. Anne.
Another discrepancy is the first Channeller in the Saffron Gym who should pay out {{pdollar}}990 but only pays out {{pdollar}}900.

===Generation II===

Swimmer: {{pdollar}}8
 Bug Catcher: {{pdollar}}16
 Youngster: {{pdollar}}16
 Camper: {{pdollar}}20
 Picnicker: {{pdollar}}20
 Schoolboy: {{pdollar}}20 / 32
 Twins: {{pdollar}}20
 Bird Keeper: {{pdollar}}24
 Black Belt: {{pdollar}}24
 Lass: {{pdollar}}24
 Hiker: {{pdollar}}32
 Psychic: {{pdollar}}32
 Sage: {{pdollar}}32
 Fisherman: {{pdollar}}40
 Juggler: {{pdollar}}40
 Medium: {{pdollar}}40
 Officer: {{pdollar}}40
 Rocket Grunt: {{pdollar}}40
 Sailor: {{pdollar}}40
 CoolTrainer: {{pdollar}}48
 Firebreather: {{pdollar}}48
 Pokemaniac: {{pdollar}}60
 Rival (Johto): {{pdollar}}60
 Skier: {{pdollar}}72
 Boarder: {{pdollar}}72
 Rocket Executive: {{pdollar}}72
 PokeFan: {{pdollar}}80
 Beauty: {{pdollar}}88
 Scientist: {{pdollar}}100
 Rival (Kanto): {{pdollar}}100
 Gym Leader: {{pdollar}}100
 Elite Four: {{pdollar}}100
 Champion: {{pdollar}}100

Notes (some exceptions):
* Psychic Mark gives {{pdollar}}544 even though his Kadabra is level 15 instead of 17.
* Psychic Phil gives {{pdollar}}832 even though both his Pokemon are level 24 instead of 26.
* Schoolboys Alan and Chad have different base payouts, of {{pdollar}}20 and {{pdollar}}32 respectively.
* Sailor Eugene's "last" Pokemon is his Krabby, which is level 19.
* Some of the female swimmers on route 41 have a base payout of {{pdollar}}20, while two of them pay {{pdollar}}440 with Pokemon that are level 19 instead of level 22. I don't know why this happens.
* The "last" Pokemon of the Boarders in Mahogany Gym are whichever ones they have two of. Either that or the people who made the article on Bulbapedia decided to put the trainers' Pokemon in order of level instead of appearance.
* For some odd reason, Bulbapedia lists Silver as giving the player {{pdollar}}1320 at the Indigo Plateau, making his base payout {{pdollar}}26.4. Perhaps it was a bug? I dunno.
* The first Rocket Executive gives a payout of {{pdollar}}1800 even though her Pokemon are level 23 instead of level 25.

===Generation III===

The ones that are different from Generation II (as well as new ones) are listed here:

The ones with "not enough info" have only one source to corroborate.

Some exceptions (according to Bulbapedia):
* Sailor Huey gives {{pdollar}}8 less than he should by following this rule ({{pdollar}}440 instead of {{pdollar}}448).
* Sailor Cory pays {{pdollar}}104[sic], even though his Pokemon are all level 24 instead of level 26. (Even if they were level 26, this would imply a base payout of {{pdollar}}4, which is highly unusual. Perhaps it's actually {{pdollar}}1040?)
* For some reason, Fisherman Carter's base payout is {{pdollar}}36.
* Camper Travis pays {{pdollar}}288, even though his Sandshrew is level 19 instead of level 18.
* Kindler Hayden pays {{pdollar}}576, even though his Numel is level 17 instead of level 18.
* Winstrate Victoria pays {{pdollar}}340 even though her Roselia is level 16 instead of level 17.
:* This problem is corrected in Emerald, where Victoria's Roselia is level 17.
* Rich Boy Garret and Lady Anette, on the S.S. Tidal, have a base payout of {{pdollar}}160.

Based on this information, I'll make the prediction that Mossdeep Gym's first trainer, Psychic Preston, pays the trainer {{pdollar}}888 upon defeat. (There is currently no info like that on the actual page.)

This might be just "speculation", but I've verified the pattern over pretty much all the cases on Bulbapedia.

Also, in FR/LG onwards, the trainer will pay out different amounts of money when battling wild Pokemon, also depending on what the levels of his Pokemon are. However, the money that the trainer loses will correspond to his ''highest-level'' Pokemon, not his ''last'' Pokemon. (The info for that can be found on the discussion page for [[Talk:Black out|Black out]].) [[User:Ztobor|Ztobor]] 15:26, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

:: Surprisingly, it doesn't. Only the trainer class and level matter when calculating this. This is because how far you are (and where you are) in the game is pretty much directly correlated with the level of their Pokémon. [[User:Ztobor|Ztobor]] 18:50, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

:::Which means it does depend on how far you are, and where you are.

Zenny is actually a currency used in most RPGs. [[user:Mkt_ranma|Mkt_ranma]]

Seeing as the symbol isn't a real currency (at least I don't think so), I don't think they should be called by 'dollars', 'yen' or any other real world currency, 'credits' doesn't sound right either, however it's better than calling them 'dollars' or 'yen' (or 'PokéDollars' or 'PokéYen') - [[User:MTC|MTC]] 18:54, 7 May 2005 (UTC)

== PD to USD exchange rate ==

I quickly figured out the exchange rate between the Pokédollar and the US Dollar. A can of soda pop costs 300 PD. In America, the average price for a can of soda off of a vending machine is $0.60 USD. Therefore, 500 PD = $1 USD.

See for yourself: I found a vending machine that sold soda at 60¢ here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/23475878@N07/2565805623/sizes/l/

:A few more notes; for one, I'm on the east coast here, and most vending machines sell soda for different prices, generally above $0.60, which messes up your calculations already. Two, Pokémon is a game created in Japan, so most pricings would need to be based off the Japanese price for soda pop, which I can tell you right now also probably fluctuates based on where it's sold and what sort of soda pop it is. And thirdly, on the note of Japan, Pokémon Dollars are most likely based directly off of Yen, point-for-point. The reason this isn't mentioned in the article is as Shining mentioned; it's merely speculation, not fact, and as such, has no place in an encyclopedic article. --[[user:Jioruji_Derako| '''J'''ïörüjï '''Ð'''ērākō.'''>''']][[user talk:Jioruji Derako|''.cнаt'''''^''']] 04:25, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
::Just like here in Illinois, cans of soda are $1, while bottles are going up to $1.25 and $1.50. And it isn't just the area of the states you live in, the price for soda is different in almost every town or city. [[User:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|R.A. Hunter B.]] 00:49, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

== Money Problems in the Handheld Series ==

'''Generation I'''

The Elite Four and Pay Day are the only Infinite Sources of [[Image:Pokébuck sign.gif]] after every other Trainer in the game is beaten.
As a result, Trainers had to be conservative since money was hard to come by.

'''Generation II'''

Rematch opportunities are provided via the PokéGear "Phone" function, the Trainer House, and Red.
These new features have helped collecting [[Image:Pokébuck sign.gif]] a little less difficult.

'''Generation III'''

The "Trainer's Eyes" function of the PokéNav in Ruby & Sapphire conveniently indicates trainers that want to rematch with a flashing PokéBall Icon next to their name.
Although the Player had to wait one or several days for a rematch and travel far and wide to find and battle with the Rematching Trainers that were scattered in various locations.
As a result, collecting [[Image:Pokébuck sign.gif]] became significantly easier.

The VS Seeker in FireRed & LeafGreen, albeit less convenient than the PokéNav, allowed the player to have rematches with previously beaten Trainers at any time.

'''Generation IV'''

The Hotel Grand Lake Restaurant provides a daily and generous income via 5 double battles in one convenient location.
As a result, money is no longer a problem.
--[[User:Arima|Arima]] 01:18, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

'''Generation V'''

The VS Seeker was abandoned in Black and White, so rebattling trainers for money is no longer possible, except in Black City and Nimbasa City (daily). However, there is a huge source of money in the sale of artifacts from the Abyssal Ruins, as well as other rare items found around Unova. Other than selling items, rebattling the Elite Four, Game Freak Morimoto (daily), and Cynthia (spring only, daily) also give infinite money, although their levels are quite high.

== Trainer payouts ==

I have a section that I'm working on right now on my homepage that I would like to include in either this article or the "Trainer class" article, and is a section on how to calculate how much a trainer will pay you. Click the link in my signature to get to it: [[User:Ztobor|Ztobor]] 15:26, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

Okay, pasted from my page, because I don't think anybody's interested in my user page:

Based on investigation of the data here on Bulbapedia, I've deduced a pattern in the way money is paid out by all Trainers.
(This is most likely not new information, but I haven't found it anywhere else on the site or on other sites, so if it is somewhere, please point me to it.)

The money that each trainer pays to your character is calculated using the following formula:

Money = (Base Payout) * (Level of last Pokemon sent out by the trainer)

The Base Payout is different for each different type of trainer. Here is a list (mostly incomplete because BP is missing information on some of the generations):

===Generation I===

Swimmer: {{pdollar}}5
 Bug Catcher: {{pdollar}}10

 Champion: {{pdollar}}99

Scientist: ??
Cue Ball: ??
Biker: ??
Bird Keeper: ??

*for the Rival, the "last" Pokemon is always the starter Pokemon that (s)he received at the beginning.

A lot of them (the ones marked ??) are missing because I couldn't find information on them on Bulbapedia and because I don't remember personally what they are in the games.

For some odd reason, the Rival pays out {{pdollar}}1330 instead of {{pdollar}}1300 for the fourth battle, on the S.S. Anne.
Another discrepancy is the first Channeller in the Saffron Gym who should pay out {{pdollar}}990 but only pays out {{pdollar}}900.

===Generation II===

Swimmer: {{pdollar}}8
 Bug Catcher: {{pdollar}}16
 Youngster: {{pdollar}}16
 Camper: {{pdollar}}20
 Picnicker: {{pdollar}}20
 Schoolboy: {{pdollar}}20 / 32

 Rival (Kanto): {{pdollar}}100
 Gym Leader: {{pdollar}}100
 Elite Four: {{pdollar}}100
 Champion: {{pdollar}}100

Notes (some exceptions):
* Psychic Mark gives {{pdollar}}544 even though his Kadabra is level 15 instead of 17.
* Psychic Phil gives {{pdollar}}832 even though both his Pokemon are level 24 instead of 26.
* Schoolboys Alan and Chad have different base payouts, of {{pdollar}}20 and {{pdollar}}32 respectively.
* Sailor Eugene's "last" Pokemon is his Krabby, which is level 19.
* Some of the female swimmers on route 41 have a base payout of {{pdollar}}20, while two of them pay {{pdollar}}440 with Pokemon that are level 19 instead of level 22. I don't know why this happens.
* The "last" Pokemon of the Boarders in Mahogany Gym are whichever ones they have two of. Either that or the people who made the article on Bulbapedia decided to put the trainers' Pokemon in order of level instead of appearance.
* For some odd reason, Bulbapedia lists Silver as giving the player {{pdollar}}1320 at the Indigo Plateau, making his base payout {{pdollar}}26.4. Perhaps it was a bug? I dunno.
* The first Rocket Executive gives a payout of {{pdollar}}1800 even though her Pokemon are level 23 instead of level 25.

Hex Maniac: {{pdollar}}24? (Not enough info)

Dragon Tamer: {{pdollar}}?? (No info)
Old Couple: {{pdollar}}?? (No info)

The ones with "not enough info" have only one source to corroborate.

Some exceptions (according to Bulbapedia):
* Sailor Huey gives {{pdollar}}8 less than he should by following this rule ({{pdollar}}440 instead of {{pdollar}}448).
* Sailor Cory pays {{pdollar}}104[sic], even though his Pokemon are all level 24 instead of level 26. (Even if they were level 26, this would imply a base payout of {{pdollar}}4, which is highly unusual. Perhaps it's actually {{pdollar}}1040?)
* For some reason, Fisherman Carter's base payout is {{pdollar}}36.
* Camper Travis pays {{pdollar}}288, even though his Sandshrew is level 19 instead of level 18.
* Kindler Hayden pays {{pdollar}}576, even though his Numel is level 17 instead of level 18.
* Winstrate Victoria pays {{pdollar}}340 even though her Roselia is level 16 instead of level 17.
:* This problem is corrected in Emerald, where Victoria's Roselia is level 17.
* Rich Boy Garret and Lady Anette, on the S.S. Tidal, have a base payout of {{pdollar}}160.

Based on this information, I'll make the prediction that Mossdeep Gym's first trainer, Psychic Preston, pays the trainer {{pdollar}}888 upon defeat. (There is currently no info like that on the actual page.)

This might be just "speculation", but I've verified the pattern over pretty much all the cases on Bulbapedia.

Also, in FR/LG onwards, the trainer will pay out different amounts of money when battling wild Pokemon, also depending on what the levels of his Pokemon are. However, the money that the trainer loses will correspond to his ''highest-level'' Pokemon, not his ''last'' Pokemon.

:A lot of it also depends on where they are, how far you are in the game, what level their Pokémon are, and obviously trianer class. '''[[Team Rocket|R.A.]] [[User:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|Hunter]] [[User Talk:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|Blade]]''' 16:33, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

:: Surprisingly, it doesn't. Only the trainer class and level matter when calculating this. This is because how far you are (and where you are) in the game is pretty much directly correlated with the level of their Pokémon. [[User:Ztobor|Ztobor]] 18:50, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

:::Which means it does depend on how far you are, and where you are. Because if you weren't that far, or in certain areas, then the levels wouldn't be that high, and some trainer classes wouldn't be found. Not trying to start an arguement or anything, just pointing out that all of this is related.

::::Oh, sorry, I thought you meant there was a direct correlation (which there isn't). [[User:Ztobor|Ztobor]] 18:20, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

== UK ==

My mates and I have always called them PokéPounds, is this the offical term in the UK, or is it just our random 'musings'.--[[User:Sammy red8|Sammy red8]] 17:31, 27 April 2010 (UTC)

:Depends. What do the UK versions of Colosseum and XD: Gale of Darkness call this currency? I'd wager it would be the same as in the US, but since the Gamecube has regional-lockout, that could lend to the possibility of regional differences based on geography...--[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 17:39, 27 April 2010 (UTC)

::I dunno, it looks more like a pound sign, but it's most likely called Pokédollars in the UK as well. Poképounds sounds better though. - [[User:PikaThunder|PikaThunder]] • [[User Talk:PikaThunder|PT's Talk]] - 19:29, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

== Pokémon Channel ==

The article mentions that the currency is called "Poké" in the mystery dungeon games (but that it may, however, be a different currency as it is used only by Pokémon) but the same name was used in the {{g|Channel}} game. Could Poké just be a shortened version of "PokéDollar" or would it be an entirely different currency altogether? --[[User:Navarr|Navarr]] 18:25, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
