'''Watchog''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミルホッグ''' ''Miruhog'') is a {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon.<br />
<br />
It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Patrat}} starting at [[level]] 20.<br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
===Physiology===<br />
Watchog is an upright, meerkat-like Pokémon with large cheeks and a single, pointed incisor sticking out of its mouth. It is mainly a shade of reddish brown, with its cheeks and neck beige, and a pattern of yellow striping on its chest and tail, with the striping on its chest resembling a vest. Its hands, feet and tail tip are white-colored. Its eyes have an unusual pattern surrounding a small black pupil, with two red ring-like stripes separated by a third, yellow stripe. Black markings accentuate the eyes at their outer ends.<br />

===Special abilities===<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Despite the Pokédex claiming it attacks with seeds, Watchog cannot learn any seed-based moves ({{m|Bullet Seed}}, {{m|Leech Seed}}, {{m|Worry Seed}}, {{m|Seed Bomb}}).<br />
**However it attacks with similar based moves in [[PokéPark 2: Wonders Beyond]]<br />
<br />
===Origin===<br />
Watchog is based on a {{wp|groundhog}} and possibly a {{wp|meerkat}}. Its design is based on a road worker, with the body resembling a {{wp|personal protective equipment|protective suit}} and the yellow stripes forming a {{wp|high visibility clothing|safety vest}}. <br />
<br />
====Name origin====<br />
Watchog originates from ''watch'' and ''groundhog''. It may also be a pun on {{wp|guard dog|watchdog}}s, dogs used to guard. ''Miruhog'' seems to come from 見る ''miru'', to observe, ''meerkat'' and ''groundhog''.<br />

<div>==Evolving Dual traits==<br />
Some pokemon that cant be caught in the wild and must be evolved have a dual nature that is not shared with the previous generation, how do you get their abilities then?<br />
:Breeding LOL '''[[User:Hfc2x|<span style="color:#008800">h</span><span style="color:#000000">fc</span>]][[User talk:Hfc2x|<span style="color:#000000">2</span><span style="color:#008800">X</span>]]''' 20:20, 24 April 2008 (UTC)<br />
::If the ability is a new one (introduced in gen IV) the pokemon has a 50% chance to change the ability upon evolving, I think [[User:Shiny Lanturn|Shiny Lanturn]] 10:06, 17 June 2008 (UTC)<br />
:::Nopes. It will remain with its ability. For example if you have a Rhydon with Lighningrod and it evolves, the Rhyperior will continue having Lightningrod as ability. But if the Rhydon had Rock Head, then as Rhyperior it will have Solid Rock. That's the way it works. '''[[User:Hfc2x|<span style="color:#008800">h</span><span style="color:#000000">fc</span>]][[User talk:Hfc2x|<span style="color:#000000">2</span><span style="color:#008800">X</span>]]''' 01:11, 18 June 2008 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::: What I meant is that if you transfer Nidorino with point point and evolve it, it has a 50% chance of getting rivalry. The Rhyperior situation doesn't fly because the line already had two abilities : Lightning Rod and Rock head, Rock head becomes solid rock upon evolving. Solid rock isn't 'added' it replaces an existing one. [[User:Shiny Lanturn|Shiny Lanturn]] 14:26, 18 July 2008 (UTC)<br />
:::::Nopes, Nidorino already has Rivalry and even Nidoran♂ has it. If you want a Nidoking with Rivalry you'll have to breed it and get a Nidoran♂ with it already. '''[[User:Hfc2x|<span style="color:#008800">h</span><span style="color:#000000">fc</span>]][[User talk:Hfc2x|<span style="color:#000000">2</span><span style="color:#008800">X</span>]]''' 16:28, 18 July 2008 (UTC)<br />
::::::Rivalry didn't exist in generation 3. As such, a Nidorino that was migrated does have a 50% chance of their ability changing upon evolving. I know this is old, but it was driving me mad --[[User:Shadowater|Shadowater]] 02:44, 5 February 2011 (UTC)<br />
<br />
==Alphabet==<br />
Shouldn't these be in alphabetical order? -[[User:Ketsuban|Ketsuban]]<br />
<br />
Logic doesn't prevail, ket. They're stored this way in every other database, and we're following along. Heh. We'll work up a feature to make finding each trait easier, though, probably. ~[[User:Evkl|evkl]]<br />
<br />
Apparently logic '''does''' prevail! Aha, I win! -[[User:Ketsuban|Ketsuban]]<br />
<br />
All of the ability articles listed on this article are classified as stubs. But is there really anything more to say on all of them? Am I forgetting some major way in which these articles could be expanded? Or can we go through and pull out all those stub tags? --[[User:Pie|Pie]] 12:03, 17 May 2006 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:Some real description of the ability would be good. The current text is just pulled from the game - doesn't have much detail, for example, {{a|Pickup}} could do with an explanation of just what ''very rare, rare, uncommon, common'' etc. mean in terms of percentages. {{a|Blaze}} ought to explain what ''up'' and ''pinch'' specifically mean. And so on. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]]<sub>[[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]]</sub> 13:55, 17 May 2006 (UTC)<br />
<br />
==Help needed==<br />
<br />
Hey, do someone knows someone that can get the game code so we can add the numbers to G IV abilities? [[User:Gambler|Gambler]] 04:47, 11 November 2006 (UTC)<br />
P.S. Also, I'm thinking of doing a template, should I add them in numerical order or by funtionality? (Raises something, decreases something, affected by weather, affects weather, etc...)?<br />
:I think we should keep the functionality things to categories, which I've only done for the weather ones. Numerically listed or alphabetically listed in a template is good, though. And you might be able to extract them by crossreferencing one of Zhen Lin's subpages on which Pokémon has which ability with a source that shows the names for the specific abilities a Pokémon has, since I dunno any other source that gives number and name at the same time. [[User:TTEchidna|Tom Temprotran]] 09:06, 11 November 2006 (UTC)<br />
:: The information on [http://no3.pic.bz/document/ability.html this page] is sorted in numerical order. Also, there is no need for a template due to the sheer size of it. The region and legendary Pokémon templates are bad enough. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]]<sub>[[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]]</sub> 11:55, 11 November 2006 (UTC)<br />

== Mistery Dungeon Information ==<br />
<br />
Should there be a Mystery Dungeon section on abilities articles? A lot of abilities work different than they do on main games (Illuminate makes a wild pokemon appears every time the pokemon with Illuminate is hit, for example) and I think articles should note that.<br />
<br />
== Anime information ==<br />
<br />
Should we mention on the ability articles when they were used in the anime just like we have for moves? Maybe even provide pictures? That would expand them a little. --[[Special:Contributions/Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#0005CD;">☆</span>]][[Tracey Sketchit|<span style="color:#15E200;">'''ケンジ'''</span>]][[User:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#DC0062;">'''ガール'''</span>]] 03:13, 31 July 2008 (UTC)<br />

== {{a|Illusion}} ==<br />
<br />
{{a|Illusion}} is an ability in [[Generation V]], shown by {{p|Zorua}} and {{p|Zoroark}}, should we put this in the list now, or wait until we have more info?

<br />
== New confirmed abilites ==<br />
<br />
EarthquakeSpiral, Encourage, Pigeon Breast/Heart,.. all new to Generation V, shouldn't these be added. Their is also TeraVoltage and TurboBlaze, but their effects haven't been revealed, so I didn't know if they would be ok to add?--[[User:S2daam|S2daam]] 15:14, 3 July 2010 (UTC)<br />
:: it's more than that, the page needs a total rewrite to incorporate each Pokémon now having up to 3 abilities.<br />
<br />
== Hidden Abilities? ==<br />
<br />
There's a good deal of information on Hidden Abilities here, such as which Pokemon have which Hidden Abilities, but I haven't been able to find any information on what a Hidden Ability is or does anywhere, either on the wiki or via Google. I have a couple of hypotheses, but I don't have either of the Generation V games, and I'm not certain they exist in Gen IV. I also don't care to throw around wild conjecture because that's how rumors get started. If this information can be found, I think we should add it. [[User:VoidPointer|VoidPointer]] 01:36, 12 December 2010 (UTC)<br />
:They are exclusive to Gen V games. They are abilities that a Pokémon can legitimately have in-game, but are not available on normal wild Pokémon. They are only available through special means, one example of which being the Dream World. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 02:42, 12 December 2010 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Anime Templates ==<br />
<br />
Could we use a template for Anime appearances for Abilities, like we have for the moves? Here is Lightningrod as an example:<br />
<br />
{{moveanime|type=electric|gen=The user draws in Electric attacks.|image1=Lightningrod rhydon.png|image1p=Rhydon}}<br />
{{movep|type=electric|ms=112|pkmn=Rhydon|method=When Rhydon's opponent uses an electric attack, the attack changes direction and hits Rhydon's horn instead.}}<br />
{{movebtm|type=electric|user=Rhydon (Pokémon)|user1=H Block Trainer's Rhydon|startcode=DP050|startname=Tag! We're it...!|notes=Debut}}<br />
<br />
It just looks a lot cleaner and more consistant in my opinion. <small><span style="color:white; background-color:blue">'''X'''</span>[[User:Vuvuzela2010|<span style="color:blue; background-color:white">'''Vuvuzela2010''']]</span><span style="color:white; background-color:blue">'''X'''</span></small> 11:47, 11 January 2011 (UTC)<br />

<br />
== Hidden Ability Contradiction ==<br />
<br />
If a Pokemon can only have one ability, should it be noted as a hidden ability, or not? As {{p|Solrock|some Pokemon note this}}, {{p|Mew|while others don't}}. <small><span style="color:white; background-color:blue">'''X'''</span>[[User:Vuvuzela2010|<span style="color:blue; background-color:white">'''Vuvuzela2010''']]</span><span style="color:white; background-color:blue">'''X'''</span></small> 16:03, 30 January 2011 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Numbers are off ==<br />
<br />
The numbers for the amount of Pokémon with single and dual abilities still add up to 493, meaning they haven't been changed for Generation V [[User:FrankTheTank000|FrankTheTank000]] 20:52, 19 June 2011 (UTC)<br />
:By the count we currently have in the article, 292 Pokémon have a single ability, therefore 357 Pokémon have a double ability. (We should really automate that with categories and the [[Template:PokémonInfobox|PokémonInfobox]] *cough* {{u|Werdnae}} *cough* .) This subtraction ''almost'' matches the data in the dual ability column; the total sum of the column is 715 but it should be 714. Does anyone have any idea why this number is inaccurate? I.e. is there some gimmick I've forgotten which lets a Pokémon have three non-DW abilities (excluding Basculin; I checked that already) or has the user who entered the data made a typo somewhere? &mdash;'''<span style="font-family:Verdana"><span style="color:#000">darklord</span>[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|<span style="color:#0047AB">trom</span>]]</span>''' 21:25, 19 June 2011 (UTC)<br />
::Given there's a parameter for the number of abilities, it would be simple to add. However I don't know what to do for Shaymin and Giratina (abilityn=alt). They're currently listed as only having one ability with their respective forme MS on the ability pages...

:::And this page counts Giratina as dual abilites and Shaymin as having dual abilities for Natural Cure. Either wasn't included at all or was counted as single and the numbers hadn't been updated for Serene Grace. I've added it to the dual abilities column to match the rest for now, but that means we're one Pokemon over somewhere. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 00:11, 20 June 2011 (UTC)<br />

'''Vespiquen''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ビークイン''' ''Beequen'') is a dual-type {{2t|Bug|Flying}} Pokémon. <br />
<br />
It [[Evolution|evolves]] from female {{p|Combee}} starting at [[level]] 21.<br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
===Physiology===<br />
Vespiquen are bee-like Pokémon with yellow and black striped abdomen resembling an elegant ballroom gown. On the underside of the expansive abdomen are honeycomb-like cells that serve as a nest for baby Combee. It does appear, however, that they have a slender, more insect-like abdomen in the centermost cell, which is inconspicuous as the ‘skirt’ usually obstructs the view of it. Vespiquen have black, skinny arms with two orange claws and fly with a pair of relatively small wings on her orange shoulders. Their yellow upper bodies are a nearly perfect sphere and their waists are black and slender. Vespiquen's orange faces have intimidating, red eyes, oversized, yellow, protruding mandibles, and a red gem on her forehead that has grown significantly since being a {{p|Combee}}. The top portion of the head is similar to a headpiece of sorts with yellow and black horn-like projections, resembling a hairstyle favored by early English queens.<br />
<br />
====Gender differences====<br />
Vespiquen is a female-only species.<br />
<br />
====Special abilities====<br />
Vespiquen have three separate [[signature moves]] that involve summoning a swarm of baby {{p|Combee}}, which are stored in the honeycomb-like lower abdomen. One is for {{m|Attack Order|attacking}}, the second is for {{m|Defend Order|defending}} and the third is for {{m|Heal Order|recovering}}.<br />
<br />
===Behavior===<br />
Vespiquen are queens of hives of Combee, controlling it and protecting it, as well as giving birth to young Combee. A Vespiquen is far more powerful than her followers, and will only take action if her Combee are unable to protect the hive. If outsiders prove themselves to the Vespiquen by defending her hive, she may repay their acts of kindness with a reward.<br />
<br />
===Habitat===<br />
Vespiquen live in huge hives in the forests with their Combee followers.<br />

<br />
==In the anime==<br />
[[Image:Aaron Vespiquen.png|thumb|right|250px|Vespiquen in the anime]]<br />
Vespiquen made its first appearance in ''[[DP032|An Angry Combeenation]]'' as the ruler of a huge colony of {{p|Combee}}.<br />
<br />
Vespiquen appeared again in ''[[DP099|A Trainer and Child Reunion!]]'' under {{EF|Aaron}}'s ownership.<br />
<br />
A Vespiquen appeared in the opening scenes of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.<br />
