Prinben: /* XY? */ new section

==Normal Starters==
Should Pikachu be considered a 'normal' starter? I mean, it isn't part of the Fire/Water/Grass triangle, and it can also be captured in the wild in many of the other games, something that no other starters have right now. It's also the starter only in one game (although, so have Colosseum Starters, XD Starter, and Ranger Starter). --[[User:PikamasterADV|PikamasterADV]] 12:01, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
:Well, why not? The fact it is not part of the triangle does not disqualify him as a starter Pokémon. If we had a Dark/Fighting/Psych triangle, wouldn't still they be starters? Also, the Fire/Grass/Water triangle is already broken is some cases, like the 4th generation starters having second types after they evolve. In any case, he is undoubtedly a starter in the ranks of Squirtle and Charmander. He is given out by a professor (and our very original professor Oak in his case), is given in one of the "main" games of the series, and is a basic Pokémon. --[[User:Andrelvis|Andrelvis]] 15:53, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
::Well, don't forget that also, pretty much every starter gets a second type through evolution. Only ones who don't are Squirtle, Chikorita, Cyndaquil, Totodile, and Treecko. Hell, Bulbasaur has two types in its basic form.
::And I think the division's more on the games that are defined as the main RPG series vs the side games. After all, Pichu makes Pikachu a stage 1 now, in all technicalities. But, of course, Yellow is just as much a main game as Red, Blue, and Green are, unlike Colosseum and XD compared to Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, even though all of them are RPGs. [[User:TTEchidna|Tom Temprotran]] 01:02, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
:::Exactly. And that's why we have the "special starters" section. They are starters, but not as much so as the "main game" ones. --[[User:Andrelvis|Andrelvis]] 17:37, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
::::But they're not special per se. They're just... not mainstream. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 17:56, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
:::::A little off-topic, but I heard a rumor that Game Freak was considering a Fighting/Psychic/Dark trio for the Gen IV starters, but they decided to switch back to the usual Grass/Fire/Water trio. [[User:Diachronos|Diachronos]] 16:15, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

== To add to Trivia ==

I noticed this. Of the Grass starters up to and including Generation IV, all of the final forms have eight-letter English names. Venusaur, Meganium, Sceptile, and Torterra.
:Hmmm. Well, it's interesting, but the trivia section's already huge! '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]{{ani|155|Fire echy}}[[User:TTEchidna/GSDS|GSDS!]]''' 09:22, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

== To Remove from Trivia ==
"Usually upon evolution, the starter Pokémon gain another type. However, Blastoise, the three Johto starters' final forms (Meganium, Typhlosion, and Feraligatr), and Sceptile do not have a second type." This quote is not very accurate. The trivia itself lists 5 out of the 12 final evolutions of the main series' starters that don't gain a new type (technically it should be 6 of 13 because of [[Pikachu]]; which while it can't evolve in Yellow still does in every other version). 5 out of 12 is about 42%; which means that "usually" is used to define an occurance rate barely over 50% and is like saying Pokemon split equally into both [[gender|genders]] are "usually" one over the other. Additionally, only 6 of the 13 (about 46%) main series staters actually gain a new type out of evolution, as [[Bulbasaur]] starts with the {{type|Poison}}. I'm not sure if complete removal of this trivia is called for, but it definitely needs to be reworded. --[[User:ZellMurasame|ZellMurasame]] 05:15, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
:That's an overinspective technicality... but sure, it should be reworded if that's statistically the case. Just make sure not to link species with square brackets, man. The {{template|p}} template is there for use, especially with the starters and their families... all of which have appeared owned by a main anime character...

==Pikachu==

== Colosseum elemental starters ==

Even though you can get the remaining two at the end of the game, let's not forget that Bayleef, Quilava, and Croconaw are somewhat "starter" Pokémon in Pokémon Colosseum, since you need to snag one of them at the beginning of the adventure. Maybe they're like Eevee's evolutionary stones or shards in that their availability isn't immediate... However, one of the things that make them non-traditional starters is that the game doesn't explicitly ask you "you want this Pokémon, or this one, or this one?". --[[User:Johans|Johans]] 03:07, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

You just have to beat Rosso, Verde, or Bluno. You don't have to snag their Shadow Pokémon. [[User:Gligar|Gli]][[User talk:Gligar|gar]] ''I am not removing this lengthy addition to my signature until all moves have been updated to Platinum standard.'' 00:11, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

== Obediance ==

I seem to recall that in the main series, a Starter Pokémon will always obey even if its level surpasses the mark of a required Gym Badge. Has anyone else experienced this?

== Trivia overload? ==

Don't get me wrong, I always love a lot of additions to the trivia section, but even now it seems like it's way too much. We might want to cut back on some more esoteric things, and group the move pattern observations together.

==Gen IV type-trumping==
I just noticed something about the Sinnoh starters' final forms. Each of them gains a a type advantage over the starter it is weak to in some way:
*Torterra gains the Ground-type, which is super-effective against Infernape.
*Infernape gains the Fighting-type, which is super-effective against Empoleon's Steel-type.
*Empoleon gains the Steel-type, which gives it a resistance to Torterra's Grass-type (although it does give a weakness to Torterra's Ground-type (maybe for balance issues); however, being a Water-type, Empoleon can learn Ice-type attacks to deal super-effective damage against both of Torterra's types).
[[User:Diachronos|Diachronos]] 16:26, 8 October 2008 (UTC)
:However, the steel type also renders Empoleon without a resistance to either of Infernape's types, thus actually making it WEAK to Infernape (at least to it's fighting type, and the steel offbalances the water resistance to fire). [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] 11:40, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
::Including Empoleon's ability to learn Ice moves, all the starters have moves which are super effective against the other two starters. As in, the examples listed above and the normal type advantage circle (except Empoleon is weak to Ground not Grass)So, in a way, it means that none of them are superior to the others. [[User:Gastly's Mama|Gastly's Mama]]

==Gary's Starter==
Is the statement "it caused many to hearken back to Pokémon Yellow, where the player starts with Pikachu, like Ash, and the rival starts with Eevee" the wrong way round because Pokemon Yellow was based on the anime and because Gary's true starter had not been revealed at the time, the makers made Eevee his starter, as the game required him to have a confirmed one? Therefore rather than people thinking this because that was his starter in Yellow, is it not much more likely that this was his starter in Yellow because people thought it was starter already? - ''unsigned comment from {{u|Gastlys mama}} ([[User talk:Gastlys mama|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Gastlys mama|contribs]]) ''

== Platinum ==

It's different in Platinum. There are no Starly. He just give them out for some reason to the two and they battle each other. Someone who knows the reason should place it. *[[User:Tc26|Tc]][[User talk:Tc26|26]]* 07:02, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

== Trivia Addition ==

I felt it would be interesting to note that all of the starter's first evolutions have the same base stat total of 405, whereas the base and final forms vary greatly.
:Every middle evolution, you mean? Definitely something to say. But the final forms' variance needn't be mentioned; it's not like they're Butterfree vs Arceus in terms of BST difference. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 04:50, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

== Second Trivia Addition ==

Wouldn't it be a good idea to post the fact that in the anime, the protagonist's starter Pokémon actually has a type advantage over the rival's starter Pokémon other than the other way around? (Ash obviously had Pikachu whereas Gary had Squirtle) Seems relevant --[[User:Blackstone Dresden|Blackstone Dresden]] 03:47, 8 August 2009 (UTC)
:No. Basically what they did was say Gary had a MYSTERY OMGEEZ and then an EEVEE OMGEEZ YELOW and then BLASTOISE HAHA. And by that third point, in Johto, Ash's Charizard counted almost as much as Pikachu anyway, especially considering the battle the two had using those.

== The mystical, amazing disappearing starter Pokemon! ==

I could have sworn I saw this discussed somewhere before, but for the life of me I can't find it now. Oh well.

Anyway, at some point in HGSS (not sure exactly when) the third starter Pokemon which wasn't chosen by the PC or the rival mysteriously vanishes from its place in Elm's lab. (The game text when the... whatever that machine is... is examined is something along the lines of, "Hey! The third Pokeball is gone! Was it given to someone?" though I can't be bothered to switch games in my DS to check for sure.) I figure that this is notable enough to go into the article, and I'd put it in there myself, but I quite honestly don't know if its disappearance is ever explained, and I figure that if it ''were'' explained that should go in the article too.

Thoughts?/Anyone know what in the world happened to it? [[User:Umeko|梅子]][[User talk:Umeko|❀]][[Special:Contributions/Umeko|✿]] 00:29, 10 November 2009 (UTC)

::Nah, wasn't looking for a general discussion. I brought it up for the purpose of adding it into the article... And I haven't beaten the game yet, so I don't know if its disappearance is left unexplained, and that's why I didn't want to say that in the article (maybe it is explained, and I just haven't gotten that far yet!). I thought maybe someone else would have the answer so that it could be added to the article, definitively stating whether its disappearance was explained or not.

== Ranger "starters"? ==

I just now noticed that the Ranger partner Pokemon weren't included in the page (but I remember them being on there before). But can they be considered starter Pokemon? They probably weren't the first Pokemon the player captured (except in the first ranger game), but they are the first Pokemon they get to keep for themselves. So can they still be considered starters?

== Cheren & Bel Starters ==

Example: I choose Pokabu, Cheren will Choose Mijumaru and Belle will chose Tsutarja. But this is

== Trivia ==

Since I want no part in the edit war, I'm going to explain the trivia piece here:

<code>
As of [[Generation IV]], every '''starter-type''' in the main series (with the exception of {{p|Pikachu}}) has have one Pokémon in its final-stage of evolution to have a double weakness; {{p|Charizard}} is doubly weak to {{type|Rock}}, {{p|Swampert}} is doubly weak to {{type|Grass}} and {{p|Torterra}} is doubly weak to {{type|Ice}}.</code>

It doesn't say by generation. It says by starter ''type''. That means Fire, Water, and Grass.
Charizard, Torterra, and Swampert are members of these respective types and have double weaknesses. The trivia, meaning-wise, is fine. (Unless one were to count Bulbasaur's Poison typing...)

So yeah, if you're going to remove it, remove it for a different reason plz and thanks.--[[User:Cold|Cold]] ([[User talk:Cold|talk]]) 23:33, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

== Should Mystery Dungeon initial Pokémon be considered starters? ==

I've looked through Mystery Dungeon: Blue's manual, Bulbapedia's pages on all three sets of games, and the official Explorers of Sky webpage and have seen no mention of the initial Pokémon from MD as "starters", just "Hero Pokémon" (for the player) and "Partner Pokémon" (for the partner). They seem to lack the basic criteria for being starters (the initial Pokémon owned by a ''trainer''), even more so than the Ranger's [[Partner Pokémon]] which were already deemed not to be starters. Now I'll admit I never even played through Blue fully (and never played the others), so there may be something in-game, but I think we should separate them into their own ''Hero and Partner Pokémon'' page or something, as they don't seem to belong here.

== Pokémon Yellow Evolution ==

The article says that the rival's {{p|Eevee}} evolves into {{p|Jolteon}}, {{p|Flareon}} or {{p|Vaporeon}} depending on the outcomes of battles between the player and the rival. Specifically, which battles are important, and how do the results affect the evolution? It seems like this would be a useful thing to add to the article. I believe that if the player loses the first battle in Pallet Town, the {{p|Eevee}} will evolve into a {{p|Vaporeon}}, but this should probably be double-checked. [[User:Tk3141|Tk3141]] 20:52, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

Ive heard that if you win both battles, lose both battles, or lose one and win one, the outcome will be different. But im not that far in the game so I don't know the specific outcomes. --[[User:Supermon|Supermon]] 21:07, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

== New Trivia (yeah, I know it's a little big already) ==

(First time, forgive me if I screw this up horribly)

Since Pikachu knows Thundershock, Yellow is the only main series game in which the player's starter pokemon begins play with a STAB move. Incidentally, the Rival's starter also has a STAB move, as Eevee knows tackle and is of the normal-type.

There's probably a better way of wording this. but I thought it was neat.

== Definition of starter Pokémon ==

I've always thought of starter Pokémon as meaning the sets of three Pokémon that are given by the professor, not merely a Trainer's first Pokémon. I don't mind including Pikachu and Eevee, ''that'' much (although I'm still uncertain about them), adding Marill and Ralts, and calling things like [[Growlie]] "starter Pokémon" just seems wrong to me. If people really want to list Trainer's first Pokémon, then I think that page should be at {{redlink|first Pokémon}}; however, IMO starter Pokémon should refer only to Bulbasaur, Charmander, Bulbasaur, Chikorita, Cyndaquil, Totodile, Treecko, Torchic, Mudkip, Turtwig, Chimchar, Piplup, Snivy, Tepig, Oshawott, and maybe Pikachu and Eevee if you really want. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 08:42, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

::I agree with Jo, even though the ones listed by SnorlaxMonster are treated completely different from the other "first Pokémon" from other media.

[[User:Duke R|'''|) u |( e''']] [[User talk:Duke R|'''®''']] 10:50, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
:::Splitting like that completely ignores the point. The idea is that the Pokémon I listed are a group of Pokémon, while this page just lists the first Pokémon of a bunch of Trainers. If we want to redefine starter Pokémon as "the first Pokémon a Trainer owns" rather than the traditional "the three Pokémon that Trainers can choose from to start their journey" and give the traditional grouping their own name, then while I wouldn't prefer it, it would be better than what we have now. What I'm saying is that we have a distinct group of Pokémon that the fandom have always called "starter Pokémon", and this page seems to have merged that group with everyone's first Pokémon. So regardless of what you want to call "starter Pokémon", the traditional starter Pokémon need a separate page from people's first Pokémon. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 06:14, 3 December 2012 (UTC)
::::For what it's worth, I would define the starter pokemon as the sets of three plus Pikachu and Eevee. We categorize pokemon beyond their obvious classification by their secondary characteristics. Legendary Pokemon, other than those explicitly called out as such, are typically unique pokemon within the games that may or may not have a defining role in the story- even beginning trainers have a pretty good idea what you're talking about when you say "legendary". Pseudo-Legendaries bear some explanation, but fall within obviously recognizable parameters- 600 base stats, typically a double weakness to something, general badassedness, etc. The "starters" of the main series of games are typically in line in terms of stats and evolutions without significant variation- It would not surprise me if next generation we had to call out Charizard and Typhlosion as the exceptions to the "Fire/Fighting Rule". Spinoff series games should at best get their own page and at worst be merely mentioned on their own page. "Games" that are effectively pokedexes shouldn't be listed at all outside the article affirming their existence, as there is no meaningful way to interact with them. Eevee and Pikachu get to be the exceptions because they ''are'' the exceptions- the only main series game not to play by their own rules. You might not even list Eevee, as it's not technically an option for the trainer- It's not a "starter" pokemon, it's a "rival" pokemon.[[User:TheHateHat|TheHateHat]] ([[User talk:TheHateHat|talk]]) 04:36, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
:::::I going to say that there needs to be a distinction between "starter" and "first". For example, in the TCG a "starter set" is a set intended for people just starting to learn the TCG. However, it does not have to be their first TCG set, and their first TCG set is not necessarily a "starter set". A "starter Pokémon" is a Pokémon given to Trainers when they begin their journey to get them started. Therefore, instances like Wally's Ralts are not starter Pokémon; it is his first Pokémon, and if people want that to have a page that's fine, but they shouldn't be here. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 15:33, 3 June 2013 (UTC)
::::::I second that. The eighteen starter Pokémon from main series games must have an article of their own, they are a group of distinct Pokémon, always treated specially in every medium of the Pokémon franchise. [[User:Duke R|'''|) u |( e''']] [[User talk:Duke R|'''®''']] 04:27, 5 June 2013 (UTC)

== Eevee in Yellow ==

It seems strange to me that Eevee should be included as a starter Pokemon in Yellow on the bit at the bottom of pages about specific starter Pokemon. (Sorry don't know the correct technical term.) The player cannot start with Eevee. If the starter Pokemon of NPCs qualify for this definition of starter Pokemon then surely every known starter Pokemon for NPCs should be added to both of these sections in order to be logically consistent? If it is just because Blue is the rival of this game that his starter is notable why aren't the starters of Wally and Ethan/Lyra as NPCs? I understand their inclusion in the article but I don't understand how Blue's Eevee is any more notable than the starters of those two trainers, particularly not to the degree that it gets a mention at the bottom of the page when the others don't. [[User:Gastly's Mama|Gastly's Mama]] ([[User talk:Gastly's Mama|talk]]) 17:55, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
:Eevee was supposed to be player's starter, but Blue snatched it. [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] ([[User talk:Marked +-+-+|talk]]) 18:46, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
::But it is still not an option for the player to get it, which is more the point I feel. It is still not an option to start with. No matter what the storyline claims, the player was never "supposed" to get Eevee. Also, I'm not even sure the storyline DOES claim that.[[User:Gastly's Mama|Gastly's Mama]] ([[User talk:Gastly's Mama|talk]]) 14:07, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

== Fire Starter Trivia ==

Should it be added that there's a trend that all of the fire starters are all members of the Chinese Zodiac? There's been dragon (the Charmander line), rat (Cyndaquil being the fire '''mouse''' pokemon), rooster (the Torchic line), monkey (the Chimchar line), pig (the Tepig line), and just recently, dog (Fennekin being a fox). --[[User:GodzillaMaster|GodzillaMaster]] ([[User talk:GodzillaMaster|talk]]) 20:12, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
:I say this is more opinion than fact. Yes, Cyndaquil is the Fire Mouse Pokémon but it isn't based on a mouse (or a rat). Fennekin, while based of a species of canines, isn't a dog. Though I agree with the others. So you could say I'm neutral/indifferent on this trivia.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 02:31, 18 January 2013 (UTC)
:Yes, I know that Cyndaquil isn't based on an actual mouse, but the species name still counts and fox should be close enough to dog to count. --[[User:GodzillaMaster|GodzillaMaster]] ([[User talk:GodzillaMaster|talk]]) 03:30, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

== Shininess ==

Is it possible that received starter in main series will be shiny?
[[User:SFtheGreat|SFtheGreat]] ([[User talk:SFtheGreat|talk]]) 19:53, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
: Yes, it's the same probability as if you were to catch them in the wild (approximately 1/8192). [[User:ChiefbozX|ChiefbozX]] ([[User talk:ChiefbozX|talk]]) 20:44, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

== Kanto Starters for X and Y ==

"Soon afterwards, Professor Sycamore will give the player a choice between one of the classic Kanto starter Pokémon, whom, upon reaching their final stages, will have access to Mega Evolved forms, given the prequisite Mega Stone."

This is more speculation than factual. We do not meet Professor Sycamore until Lumoise City. This was stated in the preview clips when he was released as well as stated on the main web site. Lumoise City is after the first Gym so the player has a good bit of play time before they ever meet Professor Sycamore in Lumoise. We also have not been given any information as to whether or not the Kanto Starters are Post Game hand outs like all other Non-Regional Starters are like in Pokemon Emerald and forward. Should probably wait for more information before saying we get two starters in the game since this has the makings of being post-game hand outs like they always end up. [[User:XanderO|XanderO]] ([[User talk:XanderO|talk]]) 14:08, 4 September 2013 (UTC)
:While I do believe we should wait till we have more information on this, I thought we had more reason to believe that the Kanto starters weren't post-game hand outs. First of all, I don't believe they revealed post-game starters before during pre-release. And second, I believe in the Pokémon Direct, the man asked Masuda if there was going to be anything different about this game. Masuda then answered by talking about Sycamore giving out one of the Kanto starters. If it was post-game, that wouldn't be different from previous games at all. They even showed that picture with the three Kalos starters and the three Kanto starters. I think that the implication is that we're supposed to have 2 starters early on this time around. [[User:Pocketfanmk|Pocketfanmk]] ([[User talk:Pocketfanmk|talk]]) 17:32, 5 September 2013 (UTC)

::If you actually watched the Pokémon Direct, you would have heard that you get both starters near the beginning of the game. ☆[[User:Solar Dragon|The]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|Solar]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|Dragon]]☆ 17:44, 5 September 2013 (UTC)
::::''"In the past Pokémon games, the story began when the Pokémon Professor let you choose one of three Pokémon. However, in Pokémon X and Y your first partner Pokémon; Chespin, Fennekin, or Froakie; won't be given to you from the Professor but by your friend instead. Then you'll receive a different Pokémon from the Professor later on. What you get from the Professor is one of the partner Pokémon from the original Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue."'' 11:45 - 12:30
:::No where does it say you get both at the beginning of the game. Not to mention the Professor isn't even in the starting town. We can't say for sure when you'll officially meet the Professor in-game. Even if the city itself is post-first gym, he might not be there.

== XY? ==

Would you say the xy starters are not official starters because a professor doesn't give them to you? So they may not be deemed good enough for starter trainers? [[User:Prinben|Prinben]] ([[User talk:Prinben|talk]]) 13:17, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

[[File:Imotaro.png|thumb|245px|Imotarō (2nd from the left) and his family]]
(Japanese: '''イモタロー''' ''Imotarō'') is a minor recurring character of the Pokémon anime who competed in the [[Higaki Conference]]. He is from [[Inakano Town]].

He first appeared in [[BW103]] on the screen of the preliminary match-ups. After that he reappeared in [[BW104]] on the screen showing the match-ups for the second round, meaning he had made it through the first round. In [[BW105]] it was revealed he had made it through the second and third rounds as well when he appeared on the screens again. Later in the episode, when [[Iris's Axew]] got lost, he appeared with his friends and family celebrating his victory through the first rounds.

He battled against [[Manning]] in the fourth round in [[BW106]] and won, making his way to the quarter-finals. In [[BW108]], he battled [[Virgil]] and lost, placing him in the Top 8. Afterwards he appeared once again in the closing ceremonies of the Higaki Conference.

:::::Technically, Shiftry is a Tengu, not a Ninja... while they're both known for being tricky and hard to find, they're quite different. Long white hair like that is based on something, I forget what...
:::::...Anyway, I'm inclined to think Jariya is based off a Tengu (lives/lived by himself in the mountains, that's very Tengu-like). Any similarities would probably stem from that. -- [[user:Jioruji Derako|'''J'''ioruji '''D'''erako.'''>''']] 22:20, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

'''Ash's Palpitoad''' (Japanese: '''サトシのガマガル''' ''Satoshi's Gamagaru'') is the seventh {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} obtained by {{Ash}} in the [[Unova]] region.

==History==
[[File:Ash and Palpitoad.png|left|250px|thumb|Palpitoad and Ash]]
Palpitoad was first seen in ''[[BW032|Facing Fear with Eyes Wide Open!]]'', where he was the leader of a group of {{p|Tympole}} that lived in a lake. {{Ash}} and {{AP|Oshawott}} had unknowingly invaded his territory while looking for an [[Remeyo weed|underwater plant]] to help his, {{an|Cilan}}'s, and {{an|Iris}}'s Pokémon heal after being {{status|poisoned}} by wild {{p|Foongus}} that were disturbed by [[Ash's Scraggy]]. Palpitoad was angered by their intrusion and ordered his Tympole cohorts to attack them. When they swam away in fear of Oshawott, he called upon his friend {{TP|Cilan|Stunfisk}}'s help. However, when Cilan fished Stunfisk out of the water, Palpitoad was forced to face Oshawott himself. Despite knowing some powerful moves, the Vibration Pokémon lost to Oshawott's newly-mastered {{m|Aqua Jet}} and was captured by Ash.

In ''[[BW039|Reunion Battles In Nimbasa!]]'' he was used in the [[Club Battle]] Tournament against [[Burgundy]]'s {{p|Stoutland}}. Despite being his first battle with Ash as his Trainer, the two synchronized well, avoiding Stoutland's attacks and dealing out powerful blows. Eventually Palpitoad was caught in Stoutland's mouth when it used {{m|Thunder Fang}}, though he avoided damage from the {{type|Electric}} move, being part {{type|Ground}}. However Burgundy took the chance and ordered an {{m|Ice Fang}} attack, which became a problem for Palpitoad until he used {{m|Supersonic}} to shatter the ice and knock Stoutland back. After blocking Stoutland's {{m|Fire Fang}} with {{m|Mud Shot}}, Palpitoad won the match with a direct hit from {{m|Hydro Pump}}. In ''[[BW042|Club Battle Finale: A Hero's Outcome!]]'', Palpitoad battled [[Dino]]'s {{p|Darumaka}} in the semifinals, and won with a single Hydro Pump, allowing Ash to move on to the finals.

In ''[[BW050|Dazzling the Nimbasa Gym!]]'', Palpitoad was used in Ash's Gym battle against Elesa. Being immune to {{type|Electric}} moves, Palpitoad was the ideal choice for this battle and was Ash's sole strategy for the battle. Palpitoad took many ineffective hits from Zebstrika's {{m|Flame Charge}} and a {{m|Double Kick}} attack, proving unable to dodge. As Zebstrika headed towards Palpitoad using {{m|Quick Attack}}, Ash commanded a Supersonic attack which blocked and confused Zebstrika, Palpitoad then finished the match with a Mud Shot followed by a Hydro Pump. Palpitoad showed signs of fatigue after Elesa recalled Zebstrika so both Iris and Cilan suggested that Ash should recall him and switch to another Pokémon but Ash decided to stick with Palpitoad when Elesa brought out Emolga, however Palpitoad found himself unable to keep up with {{p|Emolga}}'s fast moves and was hit by an {{m|Acrobatics}} attack and several {{m|Aerial Ace}} attacks before he was hit with Emolga's {{m|Attract}} causing him to become immobilized by infatuation. After another couple more hits from Aerial Ace, Palpitoad was knocked out, ruining Ash's strategy for the battle.

In ''[[BW084|Rocking the Virbank Gym! Part 2]]'', Ash used Palpitoad as his fifth Pokémon during his Gym battle against [[Roxie]] and her final and strongest Pokémon, {{p|Garbodor}}. Palpitoad first tried to use Mud Shot on the Trash Heap Pokémon, but Garbodor used its extendable arms to raise itself from the floor and dodge the attack. As Garbodor attacked with {{m|Hyper Beam}}, Palpitoad used Hydro Pump to block it. Palpitoad then tried another Mud Shot, but it was blocked and countered by a {{m|Gunk Shot}} attack, which {{status|poison}}ed Palpitoad as it hit. Garbodor attacked Palpitoad two times with {{m|Venoshock}}, being twice as powerful because of the poison, and he was knocked out.

In [[BW106]], Ash used Palpitoad in his [[Higaki Conference]] battle against [[Stephan]] and his Zebstrika. During the battle, Palpitoad was shown to have learned a new move, {{m|Sludge Wave}}, which caused Zebstrika to become poisoned when the attack hit. Despite of this, Zebstrika was able to fight back, even using the poison as an advantage while striking back with {{m|Facade}}, and eventually both Pokémon were knocked out, with Palpitoad managing to defeat his opponent with a Mud Shot just before fainting himself from the damage taken from Zebstrika's {{m|Giga Impact}}.

==Personality and characteristics==
Palpitoad was once quite the rowdy Pokémon, and liked to be the boss over others, such as when he commanded a group of {{p|Tympole}} and a {{TP|Cilan|Stunfisk}} to attack Ash and his {{AP|Oshawott}} in ''[[BW032|Facing Fear with Eyes Wide Open!]]''. Palpitoad is also very protective over what he claims as his own, such as territory, as shown in the same instance. In the [[Club Battle]] Tournament, Palpitoad has been shown to be quite the powerhouse. Since he shares a love for battling with Ash, Palpitoad seems satisfied to have Ash as his Trainer and they were able to work well together despite only recently being captured and it being the first battle Palpitoad participated in. Palpitoad has been shown to be physically tough, as he can endure attacks easily as shown in the Gym battle with [[Elesa]].

==Moves used==

==Trivia==
* Like [[Dawn's Togekiss]], there seems to be some inconsistency in terms of Palpitoad's size. In his [[BW032|debut appearance]], he was similar to the size of [[Ash's Oshawott]], however, in his [[BW039|second appearance]], he is shown to go up to Ash's waist. Later, in ''[[BW050|Dazzling the Nimbasa Gym!]]'', he appears to be the same size as he was in his first appearance.
* Before Palpitoad, the last Pokémon which Ash had caught in its evolved state was his {{AP|Noctowl}}, which he caught over 530 episodes before him.
**Palpitoad is also the only evolved Pokémon Ash has captured which at this moment still can evolve, if {{AP|Pikachu}} isn't counted.
* Of all of Ash's Pokémon, Palpitoad has been absent from the greatest number of episodes in a row while still being in rotation at the time: 33 episodes, spanning from after ''[[BW050|Dazzling the Nimbasa Gym!]]'' to before ''[[BW084|Rocking the Virbank Gym! Part 2]].''
** This is one episode fewer than [[Misty's Goldeen]], who holds the record for longest absence of any Pokémon belonging to a main character while on their team.
* Palpitoad is Ash's only Pokémon that hasn't been seen interacting out of battle.

'''Ash's Oshawott''' (Japanese: '''サトシのミジュマル''' ''Satoshi's Mijumaru'') is the second {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that {{Ash}} obtained in the [[Unova]] region.

==History==
[[File:Juniper Oshawott.png|240px|thumb|left|Oshawott's debut appearance]]
Oshawott originally belonged to [[Professor Juniper]], as one of the three [[starter Pokémon]] a new [[Pokémon Trainer]] could choose. Ash called him cute when he was sent out in ''[[BW001|In The Shadow of Zekrom!]]'', when [[Trip]] had to decide between the three starters. He then became extremely shocked when Trip chose {{p|Snivy}}. Soon after, he started taking interest in Ash, observing him but staying out of sight, and to the point that he left Professor Juniper's lab to follow him.

Oshawott appeared again in ''[[BW002|Enter Iris and Axew]]'' and used his [[scalchop]] to rescue [[Ash's Pikachu]] and [[Iris's Axew]] from the clutches of [[Team Rocket trio|Team Rocket]]. He later battled [[Jessie's Woobat]] briefly before Team Rocket escaped.

Eventually, Oshawott expressed interest in traveling with Ash and convinced Ash to take him along on his journey in ''[[BW003|A Sandile Gusher of Change!]]''. Ash only realized that he was Professor Juniper's Oshawott when he failed to capture him in a new [[Poké Ball]], and had to obtain a worried Professor Juniper's approval to allow Oshawott to travel with him and to request for Oshawott's Poké Ball. She permitted Oshawott to travel with Ash, but Oshawott had disappeared by the time Ash received his Poké Ball. After nearly falling into boiling hot water, Ash saved Oshawott by successfully returning him to his Poké Ball.

Oshawott was then used against Ash's Gym battle with {{an|Cilan}} and went up against {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}} in ''[[BW005|Triple Leaders, Team Threats!]]''. Oshawott's inexperience, slow speed, and clumsiness put him at a disadvantage during the battle. However, Ash's quick thinking managed to win them the match when Oshawott managed to deflect {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}}'s {{m|Bullet Seed}} and ultimately {{m|SolarBeam}} with his scalchop in ''[[BW006|Dreams by the Yard Full!]]''. During that decisive match for the {{Badge|Trio}}, he subsequently used his scalchop in a {{m|Razor Shell}} attack to defeat {{an|Cilan}}'s Pansage, earning Ash the victory.

Oshawott was revealed to be male when he battled a wild female {{AP|Snivy}} that would be caught by Ash in ''[[BW007|Snivy Plays Hard to Catch!]]''. He became infatuated when hit by Snivy's {{m|Attract}}, and was eventually recalled.

[[File:Ash and Oshawott.png|240px|thumb|right|Ash and Oshawott]]
In ''[[BW010|A Rival Battle for Club Champ!]]'', he was used to fight against [[Trip]]'s {{p|Tranquill}}. He was defeated by two quick and consecutive hits of {{m|Aerial Ace}}, due to Tranquill's {{a|Super Luck}} Ability, which increased Tranquill's chance of inflicting critical hits.

In ''[[BW015|The Battle According to Lenora!]]'', he battled [[Lenora]] and her {{p|Watchog}} after her {{p|Lillipup}}'s {{m|Roar}} pulled him onto the battlefield, to his surprise. Despite fighting well and making use of his scalchop as a shield again, he was defeated by a powerful {{m|Thunderbolt}} after Watchog separated him from his scalchop. In ''[[BW016|Rematch at the Nacrene Gym!]]'', Oshawott trained with Ash in the [[Battle Club]] to increase their speed and power. They trained in a wave pool and after Iris's Axew messed with the controls, Oshawott learned {{m|Aqua Jet}}, but had trouble with hitting the target. He battled Watchog again in Ash's rematch with Lenora after being pulled into battle again by Roar. He still showed some difficulty in controlling Aqua Jet, but he managed to hit Watchog on his third try. Unfortunately, he also knocked himself out in the process after taking a lot of damage from Watchog's Thunderbolt and {{m|Confuse Ray}} attacks, leaving [[Ash's Tepig]] to battle Lenora's {{p|Herdier}} alone.

In ''[[BW024|Emolga the Irresistible!]]'', Oshawott developed a crush on a wild {{TP|Iris|Emolga}}. When she used {{m|Attract}} on [[Bianca's Minccino]], Oshawott voluntarily jumped in the attack's path so he could get hit with it instead. Later on, he decided to go up against a group of {{p|Swoobat}} to protect Emolga. However, he was soon defeated by a powerful {{m|Charge Beam}}. On both occasions, Ash was forced to recall Oshawott to his Poké Ball. Later in ''[[BW025|Emolga and the New Volt Switch!]]'' he valiantly protected Emolga and Axew from some wild Watchog and retrieved them an apple each, however, a wild {{p|Simisear}} knocked him out, despite Emolga hardly caring.

[[File:Oshawott no scalchop.png|thumb|240px|left|Oshawott without his scalchop]]
In ''[[BW028|Oshawott's Lost Scalchop!]]'' Oshawott battled against [[Stephan]]'s {{p|Blitzle}}, where his scalchop ended up getting kicked out of his hands and off into the distance. Horrified, Oshawott chased after it but, alas, he could not find it. After many failed substitutes, [[Cilan's Dwebble]] crafted a new scalchop out of a nearby rock but it ended up being too big and too heavy for Oshawott. Ash then trained him, giving Oshawott the strength to carry the new scalchop. Unfortunately, it ended up being destroyed during a rematch with Blitzle, but Oshawott turned out to be much faster because of all the training and was able to defend himself without a scalchop. He soon defeated Blitzle with a lucky-shot {{m|Aqua Jet}} that sent them both crashing into a boulder. After the battle, Axew found the missing scalchop in the forest and returned it to Oshawott.

In ''[[BW031|Ash and Trip's Third Battle!]]'', Ash sent out Oshawott to battle Trip's {{p|Timburr}}. Ash commanded Oshawott to use Aqua Jet, which went out of control again. When Oshawott tried the move again, Trip took pictures of him. Trip called a time-out and then showed Ash pictures of Oshawott's face, and revealed that Oshawott's eyes were closed whenever he used it. Trip suggested that was why Oshawott had so much trouble controlling Aqua Jet. The battle resumed, and while both Pokémon used their "weapons" to full extent, Oshawott won out over Timburr using Razor Shell. Following Trip's advice, Ash trained Oshawott to open his eyes under water in ''[[BW032|Facing Fear with Eyes Wide Open!]]''. Oshawott was at a major disadvantage to a group of {{p|Tympole}} that attacked him while his eyes were closed, eventually, Oshawott opened his eyes and scared off the Tympole. Later when battling the {{AP|Palpitoad}} that ordered the first attack, Oshawott executed a perfect Aqua Jet, defeating him and enabling Ash to catch it.

In ''[[BW058|A Call for Brotherly Love!]]'', Oshawott was used in a battle against [[Chili's Pansear]]. After Oshawott volunteered to battle with Pansear, Ash decided that it was a good idea, and the battle commenced. Although Oshawott battled well, hitting Pansear with several powerful {{m|Razor Shell}}s, Pansear proved to be too strong and defeated Oshawott with its newly learned {{m|SolarBeam}}.

In ''[[BW061|Battling the King of the Mines!]]'', Oshawott was used first in the battle against [[Clay]], being sent out to battle his {{p|Krokorok}}, having the type advantage. However, Oshawott was prevented from using his {{type|Water}} attacks by Krokorok's {{m|Sandstorm}}, getting sand in his eyes and impairing his vision. Ash was able to get Oshawott back on track by spinning around and using Water Gun, which stopped the Sandstorm and washed out Oshawott's eyes when it rained down on him. With his usual accuracy regained, Oshawott was able to defeat Krokorok. Next, he went up against Clay's {{p|Palpitoad}}, where his Water Gun was far outmatched by Palpitoad's {{m|Hydro Pump}}. Then after Oshawott was hit by a {{m|Sludge Bomb}} attack, he lost track of his scalchop, distracting him from the battle leading him to take a devastatingly powerful hit from {{m|Rock Smash}} and being defeated.

[[File:Dawn Piplup and Ash Oshawott.png|thumb|220px|Oshawott and his rival, Dawn's Piplup]]
In ''[[BW085|All for the Love of Meloetta!]]'' he met {{an|Meloetta}} and subsequently fell deeply in love with it. To his excitement he was left to watch over it, while Ash and Pikachu left to get more ice. From nowhere, Emolga, who had brought an Oran Berry for Meloetta, crashed into Oshawott and the two began fighting. They calmed down when Ash and co returned and Meloetta began to sing. subsequently in ''[[BW086|Piplup, Pansage, and a Meeting of the Times!]]'', he fell for [[Dawn's Buneary]], but soon forgot her when she embraced Pikachu and Meloetta revealed herself. When [[Dawn's Piplup]] fell for Meloetta just as Oshawott had before him, Oshawott attacked him with Aqua Jet, upset to see Piplup and Meloetta getting along, sparking a rivalry. In the [[BW087|next episode]], when the gang were surrounded by {{p|Onix}} and Meloetta appeared frightened, both he and Piplup heroically battled the Onix. Eventually, when surrounded by the Onix again, Oshawott learned {{m|Hydro Pump}} to fight them off. In ''[[BW093|Goodbye, Junior Cup - Hello Adventure!]]'', Oshawott confronted Piplup over Meloetta one more time before Piplup and {{an|Dawn}} left for [[Johto]], their contempt soon turned into sadness and they bid a teary farewell.

In ''[[BW096|Meloetta and the Undersea Temple!]]'', Oshawott was training with Pansage, which inspired Meloetta. After transforming into her Pirouette Forme, she insisted that she may train with Ash and Oshawott. However, intimidated and reluctant to fight the object of his affections, he refused to battle. In ''[[BW097|Unova's Survival Crisis!]]'', Oshawott bid a teary and final farewell to Meloetta, at the aid of Pikachu's comfort.

In [[BW107]], Ash sent Oshawott out as his second Pokémon in his [[Higaki Conference]] battle against {{un|Cameron}} and his {{p|Hydreigon}}. Despite of the notable size difference, Oshawott proved to be a reasonable opponent for the Brutal Pokémon, right away scoring a hit with Aqua Jet. However, Hydreigon was able to avoid Oshawott's following Razor Shell before striking back with {{m|Dragon Pulse}}. Despite of the hit, Oshawott went on with another Razor Shell, which eventually hit one of Hydreigon's heads. Using the moment it took from Hydreigon to recover from the hit as his advantage, Oshawott used Hydro Pump, which scored a direct hit on the Brutal Pokémon. Hydreigon then fires a {{m|Tri Attack}}, which Oshawott is unable to block, taking more damage. Oshawott fights back with Tackle, but his following third attempt for Razor Shell was countered by Hydreigon's {{m|Double Hit}}, which was then followed by a {{m|Dragon Rush}}, finally defeating the Sea Otter Pokémon.

==Personality and characteristics==
[[File:Oshawott avoiding.png|thumb|240px|Oshawott trying to avoid a battle]]
Oshawott's behavior is similar in a way to many of Ash's past Pokémon, notably {{AP|Aipom}}, often attention-seeking and sometimes interfering. This was first shown in ''[[BW003|A Sandile Gusher of Change!]],'' when he wanted to travel with Ash, he jealously knocked Pikachu off Ash's shoulders and pretended that he was as close as Ash was to Pikachu. Then, when Ash was at the Pokémon [[Battle Club]] in ''[[BW004|The Battle Club and Tepig's Choice!]]'' battling another Trainer, he came out of his [[Poké Ball]], even though Ash had already clearly chosen Pikachu. However, he promptly changed his mind to battle when he realized that his opponent was {{p|Dewott}}, a Pokémon of his own evolved form. He has done this many other times, which also shows that Oshawott loves to battle, but only against opponents Oshawott thinks he can win against.

Oshawott acts proud and is a little boastful, but sometimes he can't back it up. He acts a little dramatic when things go wrong, or when he doesn't get his way. Like Ash's Aipom again, he seems to be a bit hyperactive. Oshawott also takes care of his scalchop, as he panics whenever he loses it and when he threw it down in anger in ''[[BW020|Dancing With the Ducklett Trio!]]'', he was happy afterwards when he picked it up and found out he hadn't done any major damage to it. He also gets very angry when someone steals his scalchop, as shown in ''[[BW017|Scraggy-Hatched to be Wild!]]'', when [[Ash's Scraggy]] took his scalchop. He is also shown to be quite lazy sometimes, as shown in ''[[BW015|The Battle According to Lenora!]]'', when he didn't want to battle Lenora's Watchog after just being sent out by {{m|Roar}}. He also seems to be a little flirtatious, as seen in ''[[BW024|Emolga the Irresistible!]]'', where he fell in love with a wild {{TP|Iris|Emolga}} and in ''[[BW044|Purrloin: Sweet or Sneaky?]]'', where he fell in love with a {{p|Purrloin}} that he thought was female. In ''[[BW051|Lost at the Stamp Rally!]]'', he was enamoured with the dancers at a [[Pokémon Musical]], wandering down to the stage, despite Ash telling him not to. He was briefly in love with a {{p|Vanilluxe}} during ''[[BW081|Crisis at Ferroseed Research!]]'', until she froze his head. He also fell for a {{an|Meloetta}} in ''[[BW085|All for the Love of Meloetta!]]''. In [[BW086|the following episode]], he was enamoured by [[Dawn's Buneary]], until he found out she liked Pikachu. He would always get very jealous whenever another Pokémon is flirting with the Pokémon he likes as seen when {{MTR}} fell in love with Purrloin and [[Dawn's Piplup]] flirts with Meloetta.

He is also shown to be quite gluttonous, occasionally stealing food from friends and strangers. He mostly did this to {{AP|Pignite}} beginning in ''[[BW004|The Battle Club and Tepig's Choice!]]'' when Pignite was a Tepig and continued even after Tepig evolved. This type of action even started a rivalry between the two Unova starters in ''[[BW066|Baffling the Bouffalant!]]'' when they started fighting. Other instances included when Oshawott was eating berries belonging to Beartic and Cubchoo in ''[[BW046|The Beartic Mountain Feud!]]'' and consuming some apples belonging to {{p|Garbodor}} and {{p|Trubbish}} in [[BW105]]. He shows little hesitation in doing so and no regret afterwards, until he is caught, usually causing trouble for Ash and his other Pokémon.

==Trivia==
* Oshawott's capture was first revealed in a short preview aired after [[DP190]], featuring all the {{DL|Starter Pokémon|Unova|Unova starter Pokémon}}.
* Oshawott is the only starter Pokémon that Ash has captured first that isn't the region's {{type|Grass}} starter.
** He is also the only starter Pokémon, other than {{AP|Pikachu}}, Ash has obtained that was previously owned by the [[Pokémon Professor|regional professor]].
* The U.S. airing of the [[BW016|episode]] where Oshawott learned {{m|Aqua Jet}} occurred in the same week as the Japanese airing of the [[BW032|episode]] where he perfected it.

Prinben: /* Fennekin evo? */ new section

I think its also possible that the kin part is derived from Kitsune. Drop the Tsu and e and you got kin. It also might be from Kinetic as in Kinetic energy.

Also I think after 5 gens of games, its safe to say that it's Pokedex number will be 004 for its regional dex spot. In all the games, the first fire starter has always been 004 in their regional dex. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 17:05, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

== Origin ==
Fennekin is based on a {{wp|Fennec fox}} ;) --[[User:PenblooeR|Pen]][[User talk:PenblooeR|BlooeR]] 12:54, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

i think its fennel and vixen not kitten! [[User:Badwolf1234|Badwolf1234]] ([[User talk:Badwolf1234|talk]]) 13:11, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
:I agree, definetly makes more sense than kitten --[[User:PenblooeR|Pen]][[User talk:PenblooeR|BlooeR]] 13:26, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

Maybe more fennec and kind (child in german) [[User:Milde|Milde]] ([[User talk:Milde|talk]]) 16:39, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

:I'm fairly confident that it's Fennec and '''Kin'''dle, guys. It's the fire starter, after all, you'd expect its name to reference fire in some way. [[User:Aielyn|Aielyn]] ([[User talk:Aielyn|talk]]) 00:16, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

Think its Japanese name might be a pun on "[http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/focus#Latin focus]", the Latin word for "fireplace", or its many descendants in Romance languages which mean "fire", such as the Italian "fuoco". [[User:TorchicBlaziken|TorchicBlaziken]] ([[User_talk:TorchicBlaziken|talk]]•[[Special:Contributions/TorchicBlaziken|edits]]) 16:13, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

==Type==
Although we obviously can't make any assumptions and put them on the Fennekin page, would it be safe to say that it is a Fire/Psychic type? The move that it used against the Kirlia in the trailer looked a lot like a psychic type move. [[User:Cafeolay|Cafeolay]] ([[User talk:Cafeolay|talk]]) 23:28, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
:Not yet. Besides, most Pokémon used moves that don't get STAB. [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 23:33, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
::*I.E. [[Psyduck]] and [[Golduck]]. They learn Psychic moves and they aren't Psychic-types. Also, is there any confirmation that it was a psychic attack? Seriously, I'm curious if there was. ----[[User:NateVirus|NateVirus]]''([[User talk:NateVirus|Talk]]''|''[[Special:Contributions/NateVirus|Contributions]]'') 23:41, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
:::Yeah I realize that it may not be a psychic type, I'm just putting the idea out there. The Psyduck/Golduck analogy is actually a great example. [[User:Cafeolay|Cafeolay]] ([[User talk:Cafeolay|talk]]) 23:44, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
::::* Thanks. LOL. I'm assuming that this site goes off of confirmed/official info, though it isn't a bad thought. It probably is best to just wait until something official is release on the types and evolutions. But here's to wishful thinking and hopefully not having another Fire/Fighting type starter. XD Until then, I'm guessing we'll have to wait and see. ----[[User:NateVirus|NateVirus]]''([[User talk:NateVirus|Talk]]''|''[[Special:Contributions/NateVirus|Contributions]]'') 23:55, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

== Design Origin ==

Shouldn't we add that it appears to be based on a fennec fox?

'''Deceit and Assist''' (Japanese: '''熱闘！グランドフェスティバル②！！''' ''Fierce Fighting! Grand Festival! (Part 2)'') is the 122nd episode of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and the 396th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on April 7, 2005 and in the United States on February 25, 2006.

{{spoilers}}

==Synopsis==
Nurse Joy returns {{an|May}}'s Pokémon, all fully healed after their check-up. Brock asks for a check up of his own, but Nurse Joy simply walks away, leaving Brock dejected. May walks away only to be approached by [[Harley]], who asks if they can practise together. May agrees, asserting that a partner will make practise easier.

[[Drew]] is looking after his {{p|Masquerain}} and {{TP|Drew|Roselia}} when Brock leads May, [[Harley]] and [[Caroline]] past, explaining that she will need to get her Pokémon ready for the Double Battle second stage of the Grand Festival. May is initially surprised but becomes confident that they will prevail. Meanwhile, on the beach, Ash, [[Max]] and {{AP|Snorunt}} are preparing to train {{m|Ice Beam}} again, but as the targets are finished, Snorunt sneezes and fires dozens of small ice beams at a nearby {{p|Swalot}}. Swalot's Trainer desperately leaps in front of his Pokémon, and his backside is frozen solid. {{AP|Torkoal}} thaws him out, and he introduces himself as {{OBP|Anthony|Coordinator}}. Anthony is impressed by Snorunt's Ice Beam, but surprised that Ash isn't entering himself. Antony says that he was entering, but he lost his Pass and Ribbons to a strange trio. Whilst he can't be sure they robbed him, he didn't have them after he saw them. Ash boldly asserts that they will help Anthony track down the thieves.

[[Jessie]] is gloating, five Ribbons pinned to her top. She boasts about how she will become the winner of the Grand Festival, and tells James that a Top Coordinator is almost as good as a talk show host in terms of fame. She will be on magazine covers, she will set fashion trends, and she'll be given a recording contract regardless of whether she can sing or not. {{MTR}} says he'd rather be a simple thief with no pressure, and Jessie shakes him violently and yells about how she will become the Top Coordinator whether he likes it or not. [[James]] reminds Jessie that using the stolen Pass will result in Anthony's face being the one on the cover, which Jessie had forgotten.

May asks {{TP|May|Munchlax}}, {{TP|May|Skitty}}, {{TP|May|Combusken}} and {{TP|May|Bulbasaur}} which of them wants to team up with {{TP|May|Beautifly}} for their first practise, with the latter three cheering excitedly whilst Munchlax sleeps. May asks Harley if the others can take it in turns, which he says is fine, and May picks Skitty to go first. Brock asks if she's positive that Beautifly is the right choice, which she confidently responds to by saying {{m|Silver Wind}} got her this far in the first place. Drew, Masquerain and Roselia are nearby watching.

Harley invites May to make the first move, and Skitty's {{m|Assist}} became Combusken's {{m|Fire Spin}}, pushing {{TP|Harley|Cacturne}} back several paces. Assist then became Silver Wind, which causes Harley to run over and seize May's hand, complimenting her on the move. Harley asserts that Beautifly's Silver Wind and Skitty's Assist could pull off an unbeatable appeal. May is unsure, saying that Assist is too unpredictable to place her faith in. Harley reassures her that the appeal of Assist is its unpredictability, that the judges would never penalise her for messing it up, and that her Pokémon are all so great that it doesn't matter anyway. May agrees with Harley, choosing to use Skitty instead of Beautifly in the first round. Caroline thinks the strategy is risky, and Drew agrees as he walks off.

Ash, Pikachu and Anthony have had no luck finding the thieves, but Max tells [[Officer Jenny]] the story, and the older woman reassures Anthony that he can still compete if he reports to the main office. But Anthony is too devastated by the loss of his Ribbons and says that he wouldn't have the confidence to compete without them. Ash knows how he feels, as it would be the equivalent of losing his Badges. Max pipes up and realises that with Anthony's Pass also stolen, the thief must be planning to enter and all they need to do is check for someone whose picture and face don't match. Ash, Anthony and Jenny agree to the plan, and Jenny tells them all to get to the main stage.

The main competition round is opened, with 64 semi-finalists out of the original 247. Ash, Anthony, Jenny, Swalot and Pikachu are watching the corridor whilst [[Norman]], {{ho|Kenny}}, [[Kelly]], {{OBP|Joshua|Coordinator}} and [[Erica]], [[Timmy Grimm]], [[Chaz]], [[Dr. Abby]], [[Savannah]] and [[Sandra]] watch the competition in their respective homes. [[Vivian Meridian]] introduces [[Raoul Contesta]], [[Mr. Sukizo]] and three Nurse Joys, the five judges. As usual, Brock declares his love at the top of his lungs, much to the surprise of Caroline and the chagrin of Max, who yanks him back into his seat. Side-stage, May is helping search for the thief and explains to Harley what happened. Harley says that he hates the thought of dishonesty around them. Nearby, Jessie has fashioned a fair Anthony costume and plans to enter in his likeness, revealing her true identity later.

The Contest begins with a {{p|Ninetales}}'s {{m|Flamethrower}}, before giving way to Harley and his {{p|Banette}}, who terrifies Vivian Meridian and even May side stage with its malicious and demented smile. Banette uses {{m|Will-O-Wisp}} and then strikes itself with {{m|Thunder}}, scoring 89 out of 100. Several other Coordinators score well, an {{p|Alakazam}}, a {{p|Vaporeon}}, {{p|Sunflora}}, {{p|Ledian}}, {{p|Electrode}} and {{p|Lickitung}} all scoring in the high seventies and eighties. Drew and May both show their confidence for moving on.

Veridian calls Anthony, whilst Ash, Jenny and the real Anthony watch from the shadows for who comes out. Jessie in her best impression of a male voice, comes jogging down the corridor. As Jessie makes to move past, Anthony stops her in her tracks and confronts her. Meowth and James, watching from afar, are staggered by the appearance of the real Anthony, as well as Ash and Jenny. Jessie denies being an imposter only for Swalot to use {{m|Swallow}} on Jessie, then {{m|Spit Up}}, spitting out a now costume-less Jessie. Jenny orders her under arrest, only for Jessie to challenge her. However, before she can call out a Pokémon, James and Meowth, afraid of prison, seize her arms and drag her away.

Anthony takes his place on stage with an impressive appeal by using its fluid body for an impressive entry. It then smashes apart its own {{m|Sludge Bomb}} with {{m|Bullet Seed}} and Swallows the whole lot for a clean finish and 82 points. May comes out next, and sends out her Skitty to great applause.

May orders Assist to successfully produce Silver Wind, then follows up with a range of other attacks which impresses Mr. Sukizo, but Raoul Contesta is not thrilled as Skitty is not showing its own attributes off. However, when Assist becomes {{m|SolarBeam}}, May is thrown off because she didn't realise any of her Pokémon knew SolarBeam. Caroline wonders if SolarBeam belongs to Munchlax, who is sleeping on her lap. May jumps back into action with an Assist/Petal Dance, which looks good but leaves Skitty confused. Much to the gang's horror, Skitty begins to run in circles to the audience's amusement. May has no idea how to get Skitty back on track, as she doesn't want to risk Assist again.

Backstage, Harley is gleeful at May's disastrous round, and is confronted by Drew, who suspected all along that Harley was sabotaging May. Harley shrugs off his foul play as competition. Back on stage, May is still torn and thinks Harley had her best interests at heart, but decides to ignore his advice and tell Skitty to use DoubleSlap on itself, breaking it out of confusion. Harley is horrified, but Drew satisfied. May orders Skitty to finish with Blizzard, creating a towering fortress of ice. May scores 79, which has the group in doubt as to whether she can advance.

Backstage, May apologises to Harley, only for Drew to tell her the truth. Harley shrugs it off, saying that if Drew had kept his mouth shut it would have worked. May is angry and hurt, and Harley explains that he wanted revenge for her [[AG103|defeating him]] in the [[Purika City]] competition. May complains that she won fair and square, but Harley replies that that is only because she won. Either way, she won't be advancing with only 79. He shoulders past her and walks away. Drew scolds May and agrees with Harley that she shouldn't listen to other people's advice - she should only do what she knows in her heart is right. This telling off hurts May more than anything Harley had done.

Back on stage, Veridian announces the top three finishers from the appeals stage - third: Drew and his {{m|Hidden Power}}-using Masquerain. The field is then covered in {{m|Bubble}}s, which are diverted with Silver Wind, giving Drew a standing ovation and a perfect 100. Harley snidely says it's no great, but Ash and Caroline are both amazed. First place {{ho|Robert}} and his {{p|Milotic}} also advance with a perfect score. The top thirty-two are announced. Robert and Drew easily make it through with Harley, and May scrapes through as well. The Double Battles are paired up and May is paired with Harley.

On the beach that night, Jessie plans to move on to Plan C - no matter what, she is going to be in the Contest.

The next day, Harley and May kick off the first lot of Double Battles - Harley's Cacturne and Banette against May's Bulbasaur and Beautifly. May asks Harley to make a fair battle, but Harley's only response is that they have different views of fairness. Finally, May says that she is willing to play rough if that's what it takes to beat Harley.

Talk:James

2012-12-09T11:48:26Z

Prinben: /* Yamask. */

==Basis==
:He is based on a combination of the character of Leonardo Medici Bundle from the anime Sengoku Majin GoShogun and 弁天小僧菊之介 Sarasvati boy Kikunosuke from the kabuki 『白波五人男』 The Five Scoundrels of White Waves.

Please explain how this conclusion was reached. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 03:05, 14 October 2005 (CDT)

:[http://web.archive.org/web/20021118215900/sekichiku.freehosting.net/faq_r-dan.htm Here] on the late Encyclopedia Pokemonica. --[[User:Argy|Argy]] 20:20, 15 October 2005 (CDT)

::Hmm, it doesn't really offer any evidence there either. Of course, Sonansu's model is easy enough to recognise, but... - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 00:45, 16 October 2005 (CDT)

Weezing, Victreebel, Cacnea, Chimecho, Mime Jr., Carnivine... half of his main Pokémon have been Plant-type. Is that enough to qualify him for the Plant-type trainer category? --[[User:Pie|Pie]] ~[[User talk:Pie|♪]][[Special:Contributions/Pie|♫]] 22:47, 15 May 2007 (UTC)
:I'd imagine so. As the seasons progressed, he diverged to more Grass-types while Jessie took mainly Poison-types. If she's a Poison trainer, he should be a Grass trainer. --'''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 00:05, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

** The reason I added Jesse as a Poison-type trainer is because she specifically said she prefered Poison-type Pokemon in the Koga episode. Has James ever said anything to that effect regarding Grass-types?

:: Natane seemed to think he is a Grass-type trainer. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 07:33, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

==Inclusion==
Should we include {{MTR}}?--[[User:Kuki|Kuki]][[User talk:Kuki|Talk]] 16:02, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

No, since he isn't owned by the Team Rocket memebers and if you remember in one episode that it was Meowth's own choice to join. He wasnt captured by a member and forced to work for them.

Isn't James the only character besides Ash to have a Pokèmon in training? Why don't we include that? --[[User:CoreyLynch|CoreyLynch]] 14:53, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

==Important! (Regarding James' or James's)==
After reading a headline in Newsday, it is confirmed that you DO NOT need the s after in apostrophe for something belonging to James, for example.

To quote the headline "'''YANKS'''' BATS QUIETED BY BLUE JAYS"

We need to change all articles pertaining to James back to James_____--[[User:Kuki|Kuki]][[User talk:Kuki|Talk]] 19:06, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
:That's because Yanks is the plural of Yank. If James were the plural of Jame, you'd be correct. But unless James is revealed to be some sort of alien composed of millions of tiny Jame beings (which would be totally awesome, by the way), it all stays as "James's."
:Besides, newspapers are just as capable of screwing up as the rest of us. --[[User:Martonimos|Martonimos]][[User talk:Martonimos|((Argh]]|[[Special:Contributions/Martonimos|Blargh))]] 19:08, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
::No, when it said '''Yanks'''' it was talking about more than one person. Plural nouns only get an apostrophe: the birds' nests (more than one bird with one nest each) and singular nouns get 's like: the bird's nests (one bird owning multiple nests). Learn the rules of grammar. ''[[User:Moldy orange|'''Moldy''']][[User talk:Moldy orange|'''Orange''']]'' 19:12, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
:::Apologies for the edit conflicts, Moldy. Anyway, I've spent a lot of time researching this, as I have to use the posessive form of Samus in my fanfics a lot. --[[User:Martonimos|Martonimos]][[User talk:Martonimos|((Argh]]|[[Special:Contributions/Martonimos|Blargh))]] 19:14, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I realized, sorry bout that--[[User:Kuki|Kuki]][[User talk:Kuki|Talk]] 19:16, 16 July 2008 (UTC)
:'s cool. --[[User:Martonimos|Martonimos]][[User talk:Martonimos|((Argh]]|[[Special:Contributions/Martonimos|Blargh))]] 19:27, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

==Sprite==
Could any upload a sprite of Jessie and/or James ? ShinyPiKa 22:27, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

Ask Taviource or Kenji-Girl--[[User:Kuki|Kuki]][[User talk:Kuki|Talk]] 23:05, 9 August 2008 (UTC)
:Why would you want a sprite for them? Do you mean the ones from Yellow? --[[Special:Contributions/Kenji-girl|☆]][[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 01:19, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
::Yes ShinyPiKa 15:34, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
:::Aww dangit.... I don't have them... neh. Sorry. [[User:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|R.A. Hunter B.]] 18:58, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

==Uh....==
Can somebody please fix the James article page? The side menu is now at the bottom of the page, and the text for it has been shrunk. [[User:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|R.A. Hunter B.]] 03:49, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
:the same with Jessie's----[[user:ultamatecharizard|ultamatecharizard]]

==Achievements==
In the article it says that James hasn't achieved much, but in the Chronicles episode Training Daze he and Jessie were promoted and got their white uniforms. Jessie and James are higher up than a regular Team Rocket member. Should this be mentioned? [[User:Taromon777|Taromon777]] 23:24, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
:They are not higher than others, in fact, Giovanni pushes them away into foreign places to get rid of them, if I remember correctly. [[User:The Dark Fiddler|The Dark Fiddler]] - [[User talk:The Dark Fiddler|Nos hablamos?]] 23:25, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
He actually has achieved a lot in my opinion. He has helped save the earth at least one time, in the movie "the power of one".[[User:Angel10698|Angel10698]] 04:52, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

==Should we...==
Should we add that James is often offended by his own pokemon? (Victreebel, and later Cacnea and Carnivine)--[[User:Tobytse99|tobytse]] 13:22, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
*I think we should.--[[User:Maii|Maii{{MS|471|Glaceon}}]] 17:38, 16 October 2009 (UTC)Maii

==Hair==
I don't want to start an edit war. XD So i'm bringing it up here. His hair appears blue in the TCG artwork, but in the anime it's clearly periwinkle. I brought it up in photoshop, and it's directly between the blue and purple section of the color scale, leaning towards purple. There's been numerous debates on his hair color in the fandom, and no one can ever seem to come to a compromise. So i looked it up, asked various art teachers in my district, and they all said his hair doesn't fit into either category. So i looked up what color it is, and it's periwinkle. Even if he has been said to have blue hair by characters, they're simplifying it. So i think we should put it as periwinkle, seeing as if we put either "blue" or "purple" we'd be incorrect. [[User:CherryParanoia|CherryParanoia]] 06:33, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

I'd like to know just when someone in the anime called it blue. It's clearly lavender. Not sure where CherryParanoia is getting periwinkle from, but that's incorrect as well. --[[User:Rocket Girl|Rocket Girl]] 06:42, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
:If we used Crayola color names in the character infoboxes there would be no end to the arguments that would be had. Blue may be simplifying it, but simple is good. [[User:Umeko|梅子]][[User talk:Umeko|❀]][[Special:Contributions/Umeko|✿]] 06:53, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

::Just like to point out: <nowiki>http://i46.tinypic.com/14l3evd.jpg</nowiki> I just did that on photoshop with the image from the bulba page. First shows his hair being between blue and pink. Second showing where his hair comes up on the color scale (between purple and blue). Last showing Periwinkle. Which i now realize it blatantly isn't. It's more of a Blue-Violet. So i think we should put it as that. [[User:CherryParanoia|CherryParanoia]] 06:56, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
:::The Magikarp salesman once referred to him as "blue haired young man." in the anime. Technically, Misty's hair is orange, yet we still refer to it as red. Let's try not to be knit picky about it. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 07:10, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
::::But its an issue commonly argued in the fandom (and orange hair is normally called Red IRL, so that makes sense). And was that dub-added about the hair? Can't trust dub added things. And even if it was in the japanese, they do not commonly use more in-depth words for color (as i learned in class). Really, to end the fighting (and make both sides happy) we should just put it as Blue-Violet. Because Blue will anger people (who commonly bug me to change the page) and Purple will bug people (like you) so lets compromise. [[User:CherryParanoia|CherryParanoia]] 07:17, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
:::::C'mon, i was trying to be a good editter and make this work. =_= A compromise was what i think this needs, considering no one will ever agree on his hair color. Everyone i know in the #teamrocket room says his hair is lavender, but you people here say blue. So i was making a compromise instead of getting into an edit war. Can we talk it out and make it work? I already showed evidence it isn't blue, at least in the anime. So we need to find some sort of compromise so an edit war doesn't begin... --[[User:CherryParanoia|'''Cherry''']][[User talk:CherryParanoia|'''Paranoia''']] 21:07, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
::::::Unless the Magikarp salesman said that in Japanese I don't think that should count. --[[User:Rocket Girl|Rocket Girl]] 21:13, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
:::::::People, people... It's just HAIR. Calm down. The admins have spoken. It stays blue. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 21:44, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Not to be mean or anything, but really. Because you're admin doesn't mean you're right. And i'm not saying either of us are right. Which is why i ask for a compromise on a subject thats ALWAYS argued. If we compromise here, then maybe everyone will stop arguing in chatrooms, in the forums. We need to take a neutral view in this page, not taking one side and saying "i'm right because i'm the admin." So we need to have a compromise on the matter. --[[User:CherryParanoia|'''Cherry''']][[User talk:CherryParanoia|'''Paranoia''']] 22:16, 28 November 2009 (UTC)

::::::::::::Unless you're looking too much into it, his hair's blue. I don't care the exact hex code. His eyes are neon green, we just call them green.

:::::::::::::I know that, which is why i stopped my periwinkle arguement. XD And his hair is too light and washed out to know exactly what color, which is why i prompted for a compromised. The hex code says its purple, but it appears blue too, which is why i wanted a compromise. But i'm letting it go for now, just understand i'm only trying to stop any edit war that may happen. There's a bigger debate on the subject than i think you guys realize XD --[[User:CherryParanoia|'''Cherry''']][[User talk:CherryParanoia|'''Paranoia''']] 02:08, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::::Considering this hasn't been a problem on this site, and this does not seem to be a big "debate" on any of the popular forums, I think we will be fine.

:::Really is it that hard for people to determine? First impressions, in my layman's opinion I have never thought of it as anything but blue until I saw this rant with people over-analyzing the whole thing. I feel that if I took a random cut (from the picture) of his hair and asked people its color, they would say blue with only the odd art student who could come up with crazy colors like "periwinkle" -- [[User:D558|D558]] 06:08, 18 December 2009 (UTC)
::::Just to inform you all. If you watch the episode Numero Uno Articuno you will get to know EXACTLY what color his hair is as he admits it himself. Meowth says "Don't worry your blue head" and James replies "Its not blue its Lavender" so this argument is worthless since its clearly been stated as to what his hair color is.--[[User:Lycos Ex Mortis|Lycos Ex Mortis]] 17:17, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
:::::Correct. He says his hair IS NOT blue but Lavender. I do have a question about that though. Was this only mentioned in the English dub, or in the Japanese dub as well - '''[[User:Vhayes1992|Vhayes]][[User talk:Vhayes1992|1992]]''' 18:26, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

==Disguises==
I noticed that on [[Jesse]] we have her in all sorts of interesting disguises, shouldn't we post some of James' too? I am not sure if he invented new names for his alter egos like she did. Most notable though is that shot from the censored TV episode where he has boobs, the controversy it created seems notable for listing it here. [[User:Tyciol|Tyciol]] 09:36, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

:I dout he has been demoted becsause the Boss dose not even consider them part of team rocket [[User:05308|Lanturn....05308]] 14:17, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
::Considering Giovanni has ordered them to take over Isshu for him, I highly doubt they have been demoted. Also, the outfits are slightly different from grunt uniforms. They are the same as their old outfits except that the white is now a dark gray and they have slightly darker gloves and boots (regular grunt uniforms are pure black). --[[User:Phantomjunkie|Phantom]]♫[[User talk:Phantomjunkie|Junkie]] 14:26, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

== Jame's Pokemon ==

It says James never fought before catching any of his Pokemon but in "heres looking at you elikid he goes into a flash back bout when he caught weepinbell. He used weezing to catch it. [[User:Angel10698|Angel10698]] 04:22, 10 September 2010 (UTC)

== Trivia Change/Removal? ==

Just noticed this trivia: "He is one of the only main characters to, after being given his first Pokémon, at one point not have any Pokémon on hand, if one doesn't count the events depicted in So Near, Yet So Farfetch'd. This was in A Poached Ego! during the brief moment after he released Weezing and before he caught Cacnea. He currently has no Pokémon with him. The other character was Ash briefly when he was traveling to Hoenn."

Now, James currently has no pokemon, and despite the aforementioned Ash incident, Jessie was also without a pokemon. So, I'm thinking that this trivia should be changed to more of a "James is the only main character to, after being given his first Pokémon, not have any Pokémon on hand for more than X amount of episodes." Currently, it'd be 6. However, it just seems redundant for the trivia to remain the way it is, seeing as Jessie, Ash, AND James have been pokemon-less in the past now.

:Sounds good to me. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 10:28, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

== James being in a lower position than Jessie ==

Is Jessie in a higher Team Rocket position than James? She has more Pokémon than James and has been recognized more in every type of media especially in Unova where she caught one Pokémon and James caught zero so far. [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 01:41, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
:I am moderately sure that Jessie, James, and Meowth are all Grunts, haven't caught myself up to the BW season though so I can't say for sure and if I recall correctly there were times when they weren't even Grunts as they had been kicked out a couple times. [[User:Felinoel|felinoel]] 02:57, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
::Nope. they all work together. At times James is more dominant and at other times Jessie is. Also just because she has a Pokemon in BW before James doesn't give her higher authority either. I am sure James will catch one in a couple of episodes from now. [[User:Frozen Fennec|Frozen Fennec]] 03:01, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

== James' Nummel ==
According to [[AG053]] James had owned or at least befriended about 6 Nummel when he was younger. There's even a picture shown... I just dont know how to upload the picture.

== Yamask. ==

Why isn't Yamask in the Pokemon or (on hand) section? and it looks like he captures a Amoongus in Series N but that will be kept to later.
Same for Jessie and Woobat. and capturing of Frillish. Captures left to a later date obviously. [[User:Prinben|Prinben]] ([[User talk:Prinben|talk]]) 12:21, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:I looked at the article and noticed there is no "on hand" section instead there is [[James#Pok.C3.A9mon currently owned|currently owned]] section, which Yamask is in fact on. I guess that happened because having just one Pokémon in the hand section isn't good enough. I don't know, I think it would have been better as at hand section. [[User:TheBlazikenMaster|TheBlazikenMaster]] ([[User talk:TheBlazikenMaster|talk]]) 17:15, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
::There's no on hand section because we don't know if Yamask is still with James or not due to the trio leaving Team Rocket. To be safe, we changed it to "currently owned" so it would be less speculative. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 20:40, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
Can I just ask, when was the trio leaving/left team rocket? can someone just fill me in here?[[User:Prinben|Prinben]] ([[User talk:Prinben|talk]]) 11:48, 9 December 2012 (UTC)

'''Tracey Sketchit''' (Japanese: '''ケンジ''' ''Kenji'') is a [[Pokémon watcher]] and a former {{ashfr|traveling companion}} of {{Ash}} from the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]] saga of the {{pkmn|anime}}.

==History==
Tracey first appeared in ''[[EP084|The Lost Lapras]]'' when he came upon {{Ash}} getting ready to {{pkmn|battle}} three other {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. He was impressed by the condition of [[Ash's Pikachu]] and decided to take notes. He got to know Ash and {{an|Misty}} better after he helped them save an injured {{AP|Lapras}}. After hearing that Ash and Misty knew {{an|Professor Oak}}, his hero, Tracey decided to invite himself to the group.

Tracey displayed some of his Pokémon watching skills in ''[[EP088|In The Pink]]'', where he took some time to observe a [[Pinkan Berry|pink]] {{p|Rhyhorn}}. He was able to watch it and sketch it without it noticing him at all, until Ash approached it.

In ''[[EP097|Tracey Gets Bugged]]'', he expressed that his favorite type of Pokémon was {{type|Bug}} Pokémon, much to Misty's dislike. During their time on [[Murcott Island]], the group came upon an elderly and injured {{TP|Tracey|Scyther}}. Tracey ended up building a strong bond with Scyther and was able to defeat [[Team Rocket trio|Team Rocket]]. In the end, Tracey decided to add Scyther to his team.
[[File:Tracey debut.png|thumb|220px|left|Tracey in his debut appearance]]
While on their way to [[Pummelo Stadium]], Tracey got to meet one of his idols, [[Quincy T. Quackenpoker|Dr. Quackenpoker]], a Pokémon watcher who specialized in researching {{p|Magikarp}}. Tracey picked up a few pointers from the older watcher and got to count how many Magikarp evolved into {{p|Gyarados}}.

Tracey finally got to meet Professor Oak in person in ''[[EP115|A Tent Situation]]''. He was incredibly nervous when he turned over his drawings to him, knowing that a watcher's dream was to have their drawings reviewed by Professor Oak. By the [[EP116|next episode]], he decides to stay in [[Pallet Town]] and become Professor Oak's assistant. Later, he single handedly saves Ash's Pikachu from being stolen by Team Rocket using Scyther and Marill.

He made a brief cameo appearances in both ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown]]'' and ''[[M04|Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]''. During the credits of the latter, he is shown discovering [[Sam]]'s sketchbooks and views the drawing he made of {{OBP|Celebi|M04}} and Pikachu.

During his time at Professor Oak's [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|laboratory]], Tracey hasn't had that many appearances. He does various chores around the lab such as feeding the Pokémon and cleaning. He has befriended many of the Pokémon that reside at the lab, in particular [[Ash's Bulbasaur]]. He helps take care of the {{cat|Ash's Pokémon|Pokémon}} that Ash leaves at the lab and sometimes has them help him with chores.

Tracey was given a few major roles in some of the [[Pokémon Chronicles]]. In ''[[SS004|Showdown and the Oak Corral]]'', he helps protect the laboratory from [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]]. Later in ''[[SS008|Oaknapped]]'', he is assisted by [[Ritchie]] to help locate Professor Oak after he goes missing after a visit to a television station.

Prior to the episode ''[[AG132|The Scheme Team]]'', [[Tracey's Marill]] produced an {{pkmn|Egg}}. Tracey gave the Egg to Misty which later hatched into an {{TP|Misty|Azurill}}. In ''[[AG133|The Right Place and The Right Mime]]'', he tagged teamed with {{an|Misty}} using the parent and child Pokémon to fire a double {{m|Water Gun}} attack at Team Rocket.

Tracey has not had any full appearances since ''[[AG192|Home is Where the Start Is!]]''. However, he has made a brief cameo in ''[[DP001|Following a Maiden's Voyage!]]'' and was mentioned by Professor Oak in ''[[BW047|Crisis from the Underground Up!]]'' when Ash called the lab from [[Nimbasa City]].

==Character==
[[File:Seaking drawing.png|thumb|right|220px|Tracey Sketchit's drawing of a Seaking.]]
In general, Tracey is a gentle person, and has a hard time saying no to anyone, especially to girls. In ''[[SS011|A Date With Delcatty]]'', he took care of Misty's chores and helped {{an|Daisy}} with various tasks around the [[Cerulean Gym]].

Tracey is a lot like {{an|Brock}} in many aspects. Like Brock, Tracey does have a very broad knowledge about Pokémon. This has helped him and his friends in their journey many times along the way. Also, similarly to Brock, he seems to have a soft spot for pretty girls, but to a much less extreme degree. Unlike Brock, Tracey seems to have some standards as he tends to be more drawn towards women who exhibit strength and courage rather than just any pretty girl he sees. Also, he is more self-conscious and doesn't go overboard about them as Brock does. He expresses his interest by simply drawing them.

There have been a rare incidents where Tracey was seen losing his temper. In ''[[EP084|The Lost Lapras]]'', Misty comments that she doesn't know how famous Professor Oak is and Tracey barks back at her, saying that Professor Oak is the most respected researcher on the entire planet. Another time this happened was in ''[[SS014|Journey to the Starting Line]]'' when a boy named {{ka|Gilbert}} said that he wouldn't want to have the annoyance of raising a Pokémon himself. Angered, Tracey yelled at him saying that training Pokémon was the most important part of being a [[Pokémon Trainer]].

Like Tracey has admiration for Professor Oak, [[Max]] seems to have an admiration for him. He complimented Tracey on his artwork and told him how lucky he was to be working with Professor Oak, and even wished that he could draw Pokémon one day.

==Pokémon Watching==
[[File:Tracey watching.png|thumb|220px|Tracey inspecting a {{p|Spearow}}]]
Tracey's Pokémon Watching usually involves him observing a Pokémon and sketching it. He has special binoculars that allow him to take measurements of a Pokémon that is far away. He also seems to have super-human eyesight. In ''[[EP092|The Joy of Pokémon]]'' he was able to tell that person paddling past them at a high speed was [[Nurse Joy]]. He was also able to tell that her arms were wider than other Nurse Joys after seeing her for only a split second.

At times when Tracey has trouble in finding a certain Pokémon, he calls on the help of his own {{cat|Tracey's Pokémon|Pokémon}}. His {{TP|Tracey|Venonat}} has radar-like eyes that can track a Pokémon from the farthest of distances. In times where a Pokémon can't be seen, he uses his Marill who has super hearing.

Tracey has some tricks of the trade when it comes to Pokémon watching. To avoid being detected by the Pokémon he's observing, he always makes sure that he approaches it from downwind to avoid his scent being picked up by his subject, and changes his breathing rhythm to match the Pokémon's so that he will not be heard.

He also has the unique ability to know what [[move]] a Pokémon is going to use just by the way it moves about. This was seen when he knew [[James]]'s {{TP|James|Victreebel}} was going to use {{m|Razor Leaf}} while battling with his Scyther in ''[[EP097|Tracey Gets Bugged]]''.

==Pokémon==
Tracey does not appear to train his Pokémon for competitions, however, they are still important in his fieldwork. His Marill has excellent hearing and is able to detect faint sounds, while Venonat has radar-like eyes that are usually able to locate hidden Pokémon. His Scyther is his only Pokémon used solely for battling.

==Trivia==
[[File:Tracey Sketchit High Touch.png|thumb|240px|Tracey as seen in [[High Touch!]]]]
* Tracey is the only one of [[Ash's friends]] with an officially revealed last name.
* Tracey is the only main protagonist who has not had their hometown revealed.
* Though most of the main characters have carried a [[Pokémon Egg]] with them, some multiple times, Tracey is the only main character whose Pokémon actually produced an Egg.
* If the Egg of [[Misty's Azurill]] does not count, Tracey has only owned Pokémon from the first two generations.
* In the Japanese version of the anime, Tracey's sketchbook has a [[Poké Ball]] symbol on the bottom right-hand corner and some writing in the top left-hand corner. This is painted out in the dub.
* None of Tracey's Pokémon know moves introduced later than [[Generation I]].
* Tracey has spent the least amount of episodes traveling with Ash out of all his {{ashfr|traveling companions}}, accompanying him only through the Orange Islands arc ([[EP084]]-[[EP116]]).
* Tracey is the only main male protagonist who has not had any relatives revealed.
* Tracey is the first and so far the only companion not to be based on an in-game Trainer.

===Interview with Hidaka about Tracey's creation===
There had been some debate between members of the fanbase in regards to why Tracey was created, as well as why he replaced Brock, and vice versa. In an [http://www.pokebeach.com/news/0708/second-pokemon-interview-with-masamitsu-hidaka-many-interesting-points interview] with former Pokémon anime director and storyboard artist [[Masamitsu Hidaka]], he stated his own reason why Tracey was created and why he replaced Brock. He (or, rather his translator) revealed that the true reason they replaced Brock is because, once they realized Pokémon was going to go global, there was a chance that Americans, if not anyone else outside of Japan, would view Brock as a racist stereotype because of his eyes (even though there wasn't an actual complaint yet). So they created a "tall, anglo-saxon looking person to be on the safe side". They later replaced him with Brock again once they realized that no one really cared as to what Brock looks like, and actually enjoyed his character.

However, this was only stated by Hidaka and not by any other staff member.

'''The Bells Are Singing!''' (Japanese: '''シャンとしてリーシャン！''' ''Pull Yourself Together, {{tt|Lisyan|Chingling}}!'') is the 70th episode of {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}, and the 536th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It first aired in Japan on March 13, 2008 and in the United States on August 16, 2008.
{{spoilers}}
== Synopsis ==
{{Ash}} was training with his {{AP|Gligar}} and asked it to turn. Unfortunately, Gligar made a wrong turn and when Ash pointed this out, Gligar didn't know what to do and crashed. Meanwhile {{an|Dawn}} was flicking through PokéChic, a fashion magazine that showed Pokémon in outfits. Dawn then pulled out a vest for Buneary which Dawn had designed and her [[Johanna|mother]] had made. Buneary loved it. When she hesitantly asks for {{AP|Pikachu}}'s opinion, his positive response makes her blush with happiness. Suddenly, Buneary heard a {{p|Chingling}}, which hugged Buneary, Pikachu, Ash and Dawn. Dawn scans Chingling on her [[Pokédex]]. [[Francesca]] then came for her Chingling. She said she was a Pokémon Magician and did a magic act making three Chingling appear from a tablecloth, a {{p|Pidgey}} appear, and started to make a flower appear from her wand but Chingling spoiled it.

Of course, {{TRT}} were watching and [[Jessie]] suggested to steal the "enchanted" tablecloth until [[James]] and {{MTR}} said it was a trick. Meowth and James decided to steal the Chingling, imagining the Chingling being used as a multi-purpose alarm clock and starting to sing like it. Meowth said that the Chingling wasn't the only one who could sing.

Francesca did not know what to do with her spoiled Chingling, so the gang decided to get it to battle. Francesca had never been in a [[Pokémon battle|battle]] before, so Ash and Dawn did their own battle first to see if Chingling could get the hang of it. Gligar had by this time ruined Buneary's vest so Dawn decided to take Buneary's vest off for the battle. In the middle of the battle, {{an|Brock}} stopped Ash and Dawn because he thought Chingling had seen enough to get the hang of it. When the battle started, Francesca told Chingling to use {{m|Astonish}} but it didn't attack. {{AP|Turtwig}} then used {{m|Razor Leaf}} and knocked out Chingling.

Before they could do anything else, Team Rocket took Chingling. Ash told Turtwig to cut the strings, which predictably didn't work. Dawn then had Buneary use {{m|Ice Beam}} to cut the ropes, {{TP|Brock|Happiny}} got ready to catch Chingling, Buneary used {{m|Bounce}} to get Happiny in the air, and Happiny used {{m|Pound}}. Team Rocket burst into song again for some reason. Ash thought Chingling had matured but Chingling then did the hugging again, proving him wrong. Francesca tried the Three Part Harmony again, but Chingling kept hugging. Team Rocket next tried using a "Tone Deaf Mecha Chingling", making a smokescreen and stealing the Chingling. They put them in a line and James took one of them, knowing Chingling evolves into Chimecho. Meanwhile, {{AP|Staravia}} noticed the Chingling and brought ash and Co. over. Ash used the "Tone Deaf Mecha" smokescreen on Jessie and Meowth and had {{AP|Chimchar}} attack them with {{m|Flame Wheel}}. Team Rocket sang ♪We're blasting off in two-part Harmony♪ as they flew away with Dustox following them. James was still
with the spoilt Chingling. He had {{TP|James|Mime Jr.}} use {{m|Teeter Dance}} on it, causing Chingling to counter with {{m|Hidden Power}} and {{m|Confusion}}. This made Chingling mature and it asked for a hug.

Prinben: /* Brother? */ new section

For the trivia, isn't this the first time that two gym leaders with the same type can be battled within the same storyline and game? Then again, he COULD be replacing Cress/Cilan/Chili, so this may still count as speculation. [[User:Gadvac|Gadvac]] 03:21, 23 April 2012 (UTC)
:Exactly.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 03:24, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

::But, if we put a speculation notice, we could add that Shizui '''COULD POSSIBLY''' be replacing the Striaton brothers, from watching [[BW058]], {{an|Cilan}} and [[Chili]] are on a journey, plus Chili strives to open up a gym of his own in Unova, that leaves [[Cress]], a water-type gym leader. Since Cress can't manage the gym on his own, Shizui comes along to take his place. I just think it all makes sense. [[User:Lucario985|Lucario985]] Chowolun 14:40, 28 April 2012 (UTC)
:::We won't know for sure for a while, so please leave all speculation discussion to the forums. [[Typhlosion (Pokémon)|★]][[User:Jo The Marten|Jo the Marten]][[Flygon (Pokémon)|★]] [[User_Talk:Jo The Marten|ಠ_ಠ]][[Cilan (anime)|♥]] 14:46, 28 April 2012 (UTC)

Just wanted to say, google translate translates his kanji'd name into "Pulp". Seems legit. [[User:AverageHero|AverageHero]] 21:59, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
:It's [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulp_%28tooth%29 tooth pulp]. And his name is written in Katakana, not Kanji. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 22:02, 15 May 2012 (UTC)

== Trivia ==

"This also marks the third time a region has two different Gym Leaders who specialize in the same type of Pokémon in different games from the same generation, the first being Hoenn's WallaceRS and JuanE (between Ruby and Sapphire and Emerald) and the second being Unova's DraydenB and IrisW (between Black and White)."

Shouldn't someone add Cheren? [[User:Pringles|''プリングルズ/'']][[User talk:Pringles|品客薯片/ప్రింగిల్స్]] 17:41, 19 May 2012 (UTC)

== Shell Smash ==
We need to edit Marlon's Carracosta so it has Shell Smash, not withdraw.

==Tan Feet==
I highly doubt that is a shadow. Even when he is in mid-air during his sprite has a darkened left foot. There wouldn't be that dark of a shadow in mid-air. --[[User:HoennMaster|Hoenn]][[User talk:HoennMaster|Master]] 04:20, 13 July 2012 (UTC)
:It might be a mistake. Just like Skyla is missing her holster in the first frames of the sprite and then it magically appears for the final pose. - [[User:Taylor|Taylor]] ([[User talk:Taylor|talk]])
::And it should be noted, but it was removed. If it was a shadow it wouldn't be as dark as his tanned torso. White skin wouldn't be that dark with a shadow. --[[User:HoennMaster|Hoenn]][[User talk:HoennMaster|Master]] 04:31, 13 July 2012 (UTC)
:::Okay, I've just checked a looped animation of his entrance. His left foot is always in the background. It's a little lighter during the animation, but still having a shadow cast upon it. In his static sprite, you can tell by the angle of his legs that his left foot is far behind him. It's not a tan, it's just a shadow.

== Gym puzzle is irrelevant for this page ==
I don't think talking about the gym puzzle works for this page,so I'll add a part about the gym on that page and add that info there. [[User:Zarthga|Zarthga]] ([[User talk:Zarthga|talk]]) 13:51, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

== Brother? ==

Im sure his motto or something on the page talked about 'The loving older brother' or something? Was this just mistranslated? [[User:Prinben|Prinben]] ([[User talk:Prinben|talk]]) 19:17, 20 November 2012 (UTC)

'''Minun''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''マイナン''' ''Minun'') is an {{type|Electric}} Pokémon.

While it not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any Pokémon, it does however seem to be related to {{p|Plusle}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Minun are mostly a shade of cream with blue accentuations. The accentuations of blue are apparent on its large ears, cheeks, forepaws, and tail-tip. Minun have a creamed colored bobtail, tipped with a blue minus sign. Minun have a dot-like nose, and a cream colored minus sign voids in the middle of their circular blue cheeks.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Minun creates electrical pom-poms and sparks to cheer on its partners.

Minun's stats are geared towards defense whereas Plusle's stats are offense-oriented. Minun's movepool is nearly identical to Plusle, except that Minun learns {{m|Charm}} and {{m|Trump Card}} and lacks {{m|Last Resort}}.

Apparently, simultaneous exposure to electricity from a Plusle and Minun will promote circulation and boost vitality.

===Behavior===
Minun is a cheerful and supportive Pokémon, always encouraging comrades in battle by using the spark pouches in its cheeks. It is very compassionate towards its friends, and is known to cry upon witnessing a friend lose a battle. They are commonly referred to as cheerleaders for these actions. Also, it seems to enjoy battling with a Plusle. If a friend is losing a battle, sparks will fly out of its cheeks.

===Habitat===
[[File:Grassland.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon}}]]
They can usually be found in grassland areas or under the eaves of houses during rain.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Thatcher Plusle Minun.png|thumb|right|250px|Minun (with {{p|Plusle}}) in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Minun first appeared alongside {{p|Plusle}} in ''[[AG038|A Different Kind of Misty!]]''. Both Pokémon were owned by [[Thatcher]], who is responsible for protecting a lighthouse. The same Minun and Plusle appear again in ''[[AG052|Cheer Pressure]]'', where Thatcher is training them to be cheerleaders.

Minun and Plusle also appear as supporting characters in the film ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', serving as the story's comic relief. The pair helps [[Tory Lund]] to overcome his fear of Pokémon.

Another Minun appeared in ''[[DP161|Yes, in Dee Dee It's Dawn!]]'' and ''[[DP162|Playing the Performance Encore!]]'' alongside its counterpart under the ownership of [[Ursula]]. Also, in the same episode one appeared along with a Minun in {{an|Dawn}}'s flashback when she confessed that as a child, she had a fear of both of them.

===Minor appearances===
[[Elijah]] used Minun and Plusle as actors in ''[[AG086|Lights, Camerupt, Action!]]''. The plot of the movie was that Pikachu, Plusle and Minun were setting out to rescue Princess {{p|Kirlia}} from an evil {{p|Exploud}}.

Minun along with Plusle had a cameo in ''[[SS019|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters Out of the Gate!]]'' where they were rescued by [[Team A.C.T.]]

It appears with its counterpart, Plusle.

''"Cheering Pokémon. Plusle and Minun produce positive and negative energy, respectively.

==Trivia==
* Minun shares the same [[species]] name with its partner {{p|Plusle}}. They are both known as Cheering Pokémon.
* Minun is considered by many fans to be a [[novelty Pokémon]] due to its general weakness unless it's paired in battle with a Pokémon which has {{a|Plus}}. It is likely it was created to showcase the [[Double Battle]] system introduced in its generation.
* Minun and Plusle have the same base stats, although the stat distribution is different.

===Origin===
It appears to be based on a {{wp|cheerleading}} {{wp|mouse}}, {{wp|chipmunk}} or {{wp|rabbit}}. It could also be the incarnation of a negative charge.

====Name origin====
Minun is derived from ''minus'', referring to something with a negative electrical charge.

The '''elder''' (Japanese: '''おばば{{tt|様|さま}}''' ''Matriarch'') is a recurring character in the [[Pokémon anime]]. She first appears in ''[[BW009|The Bloom Is on Axew!]]''. She is the matriarch of the [[Village of Dragons]].

== History ==
Not much is known about the elder, as she has not made any appearances outside of {{an|Iris}}'s flashbacks. It is revealed in a flashback that she was the one who gave {{an|Iris}} her {{TP|Iris|Axew}} with the intent to develop his skills in Pokémon battles. She believed that Iris had the skills necessary in order to raise Axew to one day become a strong {{p|Haxorus}}.

The elder appears in another one of Iris's flashbacks in ''[[BW027|The Dragon Master's Path!]]'' where she sees Iris off on her journey to become a {{t|Dragon}} master. She tells Iris that the journey will bring a lot of different experiences, both good and bad, but explains these experiences will be important for the growth of her and Axew. In ''[[BW033|Iris and Excadrill Against the Dragon Buster!]]'', Iris's flashback reveals the elder watching the development of the annual tournament in the Village of Dragons. She witnesses Iris's battle against the Dragon Master [[Drayden]] and seems satisfied with her performance. It is unknown what type of connection she has with Drayden. Iris has mentioned that the elder "does not like the cold" indicating that she may not like Ice-type Pokémon, a trait Iris shares with her.

She appeared again in ''[[BW056|The Lonely Deino!]]'' where Iris mentions that she helped a scared wild {{p|Druddigon}} that wandered into the Village of Dragons.

The Elder made a cameo appearance in [[M15|Kyurem VS. The Sword of Justice]]. She was seen in a flashback telling Iris about {{p|Kyurem}}.

'''Gligar''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''グライガー''' ''Gliger'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ground|Flying}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Gliscor}} when [[level]]ed up, at [[Time|night]], holding a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Razor Fang}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Gligar is a small, purple, bat-like Pokémon. It has blue wings, which are similar in function to a {{wp|flying squirrel}}'s, and have pointed claws at the edges of the membranes. Gligar has pincers on its forelegs, and a segmented, insectoid tail with a stinger on the end. Gligar has short hind legs, and feet that appear segmented with a large, single claw each. Additionally, Gligar has long, pointed ears and triangle-shaped eyes, fangs and a large tongue which is often seen out of its mouth. Gligar could be considered a cousin of {{p|Skorupi}} due to its scorpion-like traits; however, it shares some bat-like traits as well, making it similar to {{p|Zubat}}. There is confusion whether the claws on a Gligar's wings and feet are white or purple, since the artwork has differed this way between and even during generations. However, the official artwork from {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} depicts Gligar with purple claws, the same purple as its body.

====Gender differences====
A female Gligar has a smaller stinger.

====Special abilities====
Gligar knows a small handful of {{t|poison}}ous attacks, such as {{m|Poison Sting}} and the rarely known {{m|Cross Poison}}. Gligar can also use a few {{type2|Bug}} moves, like {{m|Fury Cutter}} and {{m|U-turn}}. While Gligar can learn {{t|Ground}} and {{type2|Rock}} moves typical to a {{type2|Ground}} Pokémon, its abilities as a {{type2|Flying}} are limited. Most notable is the fact that Gligar cannot learn {{m|Fly}}.

Also, Gligar and its evolved form {{p|Gliscor}} are two out of three Pokémon that are both Flying and Ground, which gives them an immunity to both {{type2|Electric}} and Ground [[move]]s. This trait is shared only with {{p|Vibrava}}, {{p|Flygon}}, {{p|Baltoy}}, and {{p|Claydol}} due to the {{a|Levitate}} [[ability]], and {{p|Landorus}}, who has the same type combination.

As shown in ''[[DP064|Riding the Winds of Change!]]'', Gligar, along with its evolved form {{p|Gliscor}}, can {{wp|Animal echolocation|emit sound waves}} to detect obstacles and fly around them.

===Behavior===
Flying straight at the foe’s face, it startles them by clamping on with its clawed hind legs and the pincers on its forelegs, before jabbing with its poison stinger. Gligar also tend to ambush prey as it passes by below. When it is done gliding, it hops along the ground back to its nest.

===Habitat===
[[File:Mountain.gif|left|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon}}]]
Gligar live in mountainous regions, making their nests along cliff sides. It also prefers hot arid environments, but doesn't mind forests either.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
 
Gligar are carnivorous.

==In the anime==
[[File:Gligar Razor Fang.png|thumb|right|220px|Gligar in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Ash's Gliscor|Ash's Gligar]]====
A group of Gligar, along with a {{p|Gliscor}}, was featured in ''[[DP064|Riding the Winds of Change!]]''. One of the Gligar was captured by {{Ash}}, while the {{TP|Paul|Gliscor}} was captured by [[Paul]]. Ash's Gligar later evolved in ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear With Fear!]]''.

====Other====
Gligar debuted in ''[[EP138|The Superhero Secret]]''. It was owned by a superhero named [[Mr. Parker|Gligarman]], and later by [[Latoya Parker|his daughter]] when he retired from crime-fighting.

===Minor appearances===
[[Morrison]]'s Gligar first appeared in ''[[AG126|Saved by the Beldum]]''.

A Gligar appeared in ''[[EP227|For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll]]''.

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
A Gligar appeared in {{PAV|9}} that stole {{adv|Gold}}'s {{p|Togepi}} {{pkmn|egg}}. With its {{m|Poison Sting}}, it felled both [[Aibo]] and [[Polibo]], then a {{p|Poliwag}}, before being caught by Sudobo, Gold's {{p|Sudowoodo}}, and then attacked by [[Exbo]], and Gold's {{p|Sunkern}}, Sunbo, as it tried to escape. It was then beaten by the newly hatched {{p|Togepi}} it tried to eat, waking Gold in the process.

==Trivia==
* Although Gligar was unable to learn {{m|Earthquake}} by [[TM]] in [[Generation II]], a Gligar that knew Earthquake was a reward in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]] for beating the {{ga|Silver|rival}} in Round 2.
* Gligar's colors vary between {{pkmn|games}} and the {{pkmn|anime}}. It is light blue-violet in most sprite artwork and game artwork, dark pink in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, blue-purple in {{v2|Platinum}}, regular purple in the high-grade console games such as [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]], and powder-pink in the anime and in {{v2|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
* Gligar is heavier than its evolution at 142.9 lbs (64.8 kg) to {{p|Gliscor}}'s 93.7 lbs (42.5 kg).
* Gligar is one of twelve non-{{t|Bug}}, {{type2|Flying}} Pokémon that cannot learn {{m|Fly}}.
* Gligar is one of four Pokémon immune to one of its own types without the aid of an ability. It shares this trait with {{p|Gliscor}}, {{p|Stunfisk}} and {{p|Landorus}}.
** Coincidentally, they are all part {{type2|Ground}}.
* Gligar can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Sneasel}}. Both of them are dual-typed and have the same base stats total, as well as their respective {{p|Gliscor|fully-evolved}} {{p|Weavile|form}} that introduced in [[Generation IV|the same generation]]. They can be evolved by leveling up at night while holding the respective [[Evolution-inducing held item|evolutionary held items]] with the [[Razor Fang|shared]] [[Razor Claw|name]] "Razor".

===Origin===
Gligar shares physical traits with {{wp|bat}}s, {{wp|gargoyle}}s, and {{wp|scorpion}}s. It may be based on the {{wp|scorpionfly}}.

====Name origin====
Gligar's name is a combination of ''glide'' and ''{{wp|gargoyle}}''.

'''Togekiss''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''トゲキッス''' ''Togekiss'') is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Flying}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Togetic}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Shiny Stone}}. It is the final form of {{p|Togepi}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Togekiss is a vaguely avian Pokémon with an egg-shaped body. It is covered in white, downy feathers and has broad, triangle-shaped wings that allow it to soar effortlessly. Interestingly, Togekiss lacks the stubby arms that its pre-evolutions had. Its underbelly is dotted with the small red and blue triangular spots that are the signature of the Togepi evolution family. Togekiss has very small feet which are set close together, making them somewhat awkward for moving about on the ground. The former spikes on its head have grown into a three-pointed crest that. The middle point is white all the way to the tip, but the left and right spikes are tipped in blue and red respectively (the reverse is true for its {{shiny}} form).

====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Togekiss learns a wide range of elemental attacks, as well as various aerial and wind-based moves. Most notably, it is able to wield {{m|Aura Sphere}}, along with {{p|Lucario}}, {{p|Mienfoo}} and its {{p|Mienshao|family}}, the only non-[[legendary Pokémon]] that are able to learn it.

===Behavior===
Togekiss are generally friendly and caring Pokémon. They tend to avoid conflict, supposedly never appearing where strife is occurring. They are also said to share blessings with those who love another. However, Togekiss are also powerful fighters capable of using a wide variety of attacks. They will protect their young, {{p|Togepi}}, with miraculous care. These Pokémon soar gracefully through the air, often performing tricks and aerial maneuvers.

===Habitat===
Togekiss are so vastly rare that many trainers do not bother trying to find one. Instead, most trainers prefer evolving their Togetic into a Togekiss with a {{evostone|Shiny Stone}}.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:DawnTogekiss.png|thumb|right|250px|Togekiss in the anime.]]
Togekiss makes a cameo at the beginning of the movie ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''.

{{TP|Dawn|Togekiss}} made its anime debut in ''[[DP171|Dawn of a Royal Day!]]'', under the command of [[Princess Salvia]]. Salvia later gave the Togekiss to {{an|Dawn}} as a gift.

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Sinnoh}}
{{Animedexbody|DP171|Togekiss|Dawn's Pokédex|Togekiss, the Jubilee Pokémon and the evolved form of {{p|Togetic}}. It is said that Togekiss never appears where there is conflict.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|''Diamond & Pearl''|Sinnoh}}

==In the manga==
[[Arcade Star Dahlia]] is shown to own a Togekiss in the {{chap|Platinum}} of [[Pokémon Adventures]]. {{adv|Platinum}} uses it when she and Dahlia swap Pokémon during Platinum's Battle Arcade campaign under the condition of "Pokémon Swap."

Later, in the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}, {{Adv|Gold}}'s [[Togebo]] quickly evolves into a {{p|Togetic}} and then into a Togekiss with the [[Shiny Stone]] it held.

==Trivia==
* Togekiss and its pre-[[evolution]], {{p|Togetic}}, along with {{p|Yanma}}, {{p|Yanmega}}, {{p|Giratina}} and {{p|Smeargle}} (by {{m|Sketch}}), are the only Pokémon that can learn all three [[Move variations|variations]] of {{m|AncientPower}}.
*Togekiss learns the most moves that never miss regardless of the user's accuracy or the user's evasiveness: {{m|Aura Sphere}}, Shock Wave, Swift, Aerial Ace and Magical Leaf.
* Togekiss's weight is equal to that of {{ga|Lucas}}, as well as four Pokémon; {{p|Sudowoodo}}, {{p|Skuntank}}, {{p|Fearow}}, and {{p|Yanma}}. Togekiss is also the same height as Ethan.
* Togekiss has the highest {{stat|Special Attack}} of all non-legendary {{type|Flying}} Pokémon.
* Togekiss can learn {{m|Drain Punch}} and {{m|Focus Punch}} despite not having any visible hands. However, it did have hands before evolving.
* As of [[Generation V]], no other Pokémon have same dual [[egg group]] as Togekiss and its {{p|Togetic|pre-evolution}}. In this case, both in {{egg|Flying}} and {{egg|Fairy}} are unique.
* Togekiss is the only Pokémon to have evolved by using an [[evolutionary stone]] that doesn't share any level-up moves with its pre-evolution.
* Togekiss and its pre-evolution are the only Normal/Flying Pokémon capable of learning an {{type|Electric}} move.
* Togekiss is one of four Pokémon (four species total) that have a [[gender ratio]] of 7:1 that have had a female shown in the anime but not a male. The others are [[Ash's Bayleef]] (as a {{p|Chikorita}} and a {{p|Bayleef}}), {{p|Togepi}}, and {{TP|May|Venusaur}}.
* Togekiss is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 545.
* Togekiss is one of two known fully evolved Pokémon, along with {{p|Raticate}}, that can have the {{a|Hustle}} ability.
** Coincidentally, they are both Normal type Pokémon.

===Origin===
Togekiss's design appears to draw inspiration from fairies and birds. Its association with peace and joy, as well as its white coloration, suggests inspiration from {{wp|dove}}s, but it soaring flight and some physical aspects are similar to those of large {{wp|birds of prey}}. Togekiss may have also been designed to resemble a {{wp|Flying wing}}.

====Name origin====
Its name is based on 刺 ''toge'', spike, and the English word ''kiss''.

So Kenji, I got a bunch of pictures of all the wild Pokémon around the [[Pokémon Summer Academy]] and I'm going to add the template to the page. I have a question about the Ghost-types that appear around the area, however. Should I place the list of Ghost-types in the Pokémon Academy page itself, or in the [[Summit Ruins]], since they were in the woods around it?

I don't believe we've seen for certain whether or not we've seen it in the anime yet. It has, in fact no effect no Cherrim's forms as they change even after it's been Skill Swapped away.

== Revert ==

Reverting my edit and saying "That's not your decision to make" sounded like you were mischievously reverting my edits. But I hope this wasn't the case. As a registered user it's my right to edit the articles in the way I want. While reverting is okay (it's also every user's right), the way you did it was very rude, as if you were the be-all, end-all of this Wiki. I wouldn't go that far to say that you abused your powers but I think it came close to that. As a long-time member, I really know what I'm doing. And so do you as an admin, I hope. But we're a big community and one of our rules is "play nice" and as far as I remember, it applies to everyone. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 13:24, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
:I wasn't trying to be rude or mischievous at all and I'm sorry you feel that way. But removing valid information just because you personally don't feel a character is important enough to have a name table without a discussion about it isn't right. You also had no authority to tell another user not to do it.

:In case you are wondering, it was me who added the name table on Damian's page. So in a way, you reverted me first. I did it because he had a trivia section explaining the origin of his English name. Instead of that I believed it would be nicer to have a name table to explain the English and Japanese origin without having a trivia section. I don't see why just because he's a character of the day that he doesn't deserve one. After all he has a voice actor table telling who he's voiced by in other languages. Why is it not okay for us to know what he's called in other languages if we can know who he's voiced by?

:I don't believe it's a sole user's decision to make when it comes to removing interesting points from the article unless maybe they have some sort of really high power here. That's all I meant by it. It was only a response to your edit summary "Sorry, Chaolong. But langtables for COTDs is high over the top (as are langtables for filler locations, I think we should remove those). They simply don't deserve it." That sounds like you are taking it upon yourself to decide what articles aren't good enough for a langtable. As you said it is a community and others should have an opinion about it. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 19:07, 12 October 2011 (UTC)

Reverting my edit and saying "That's not your decision to make" sounded like you were mischievously reverting my edits. But I hope this wasn't the case. As a registered user it's my right to edit the articles in the way I want. While reverting is okay (it's also every user's right), the way you did it was very rude, as if you were the be-all, end-all of this Wiki. I wouldn't go that far to say that you abused your powers but I think it came close to that. As a long-time member, I really know what I'm doing. And so do you as an admin, I hope. But we're a big community and one of our rules is "play nice" and as far as I remember, it applies to everyone. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 13:24, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
:I wasn't trying to be rude or mischievous at all and I'm sorry you feel that way. But removing valid information just because you personally don't feel a character is important enough to have a name table without a discussion about it isn't right. You also had no authority to tell another user not to do it.

:In case you are wondering, it was me who added the name table on Damian's page. So in a way, you reverted me first. I did it because he had a trivia section explaining the origin of his English name. Instead of that I believed it would be nicer to have a name table to explain the English and Japanese origin without having a trivia section. I don't see why just because he's a character of the day that he doesn't deserve one. After all he has a voice actor table telling who he's voiced by in other languages. Why is it not okay for us to know what he's called in other languages if we can know who he's voiced by?

:I don't believe it's a sole user's decision to make when it comes to removing interesting points from the article unless maybe they have some sort of really high power here. That's all I meant by it. It was only a response to your edit summary "Sorry, Chaolong. But langtables for COTDs is high over the top (as are langtables for filler locations, I think we should remove those). They simply don't deserve it." That sounds like you are taking it upon yourself to decide what articles aren't good enough for a langtable.

== Chili's Pansear ==
I have been trying to find out who voices Chili's Pansear in the English version. If anyone has an idea on this, please post it on to here to discuss if this correct or not.[[User:Ctc1017|Ctc1017]] 21:44, 3 July 2011 (UTC)Ctc1017

I have narrowed down on who could have portrayed Pansear. While it does sound like Cilan's Dwebble it is more likely Tom Wayland did the role since his voice sounds slightly similar to how the chraracter sounded like when it first came out. He also is credited in that same episode since he did the role of Cress. If there is anyone else credited that sounds like Pansear, Please write down their names here.

== Chinese (Taiwan) names ==

The [http://www.my-cartoon.com.tw/pokemon/2010movie.htm Official Taiwanese Pokémon Anime Distributor Website] has already revealed the movie in Chinese and Zoroa & Zoroark's Mandarin Chinese names. Zoroa is 索羅亞 ''Suǒluóyà'' and Zoroark is 索羅亞克 ''Suǒluóyàkè''. They're basically phonetic transliterations of their Japanese names. Hope that someone with powers will add them. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 14:36, 7 May 2010 (UTC)

:::::I also resent the incinuation that I post things that aren't true. I make sure to check these facts before I post them. The stuff came from CoroCoro. You yourselves choose CoroCoro as a valid source. You CANNOT just pick and choose what bits you accept on a whim. For example, you guys posted the starter names before we had it confirmed, and yet you hesitate on an ability for which there were screenshots demonstrating Zoroark using it. Get some consistency and please use your heads. You're meant to be the a popular Pokémon site on the net. Start acting like it. --[[User:Serebii|Serebii]] 09:59, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
::::::Joe, you know very well that the issue isn't whether or not what you post is true. It's that we can't ''rely'' on you as a source. We have our own Japanese speakers to translate sources for us. Nobody is saying you post false info. But we just like to check for ourselves, same way you wouldn't post stuff just because they showed up on Bulbanews. --[[User:ElectAbuzzzz|'''electAbuzz''']][[User talk:ElectAbuzzzz|'''z''']][[Special:Contributions/ElectAbuzzzz|'''z''']] 10:24, 14 May 2010 (UTC)

And Joe, yes, a lot of Bulbagarden users have an imaginary {{tt|rivalry|although some people don't know how to handle it properly...}} with Serebii. We all know. News is hard work to keep sane doing. Rivalry can be a good thing. It makes everybody double check facts just to prove that it ''is'' true, and people can catch mistakes that way.

== Zoroark and Zordrak ==

When you say that Zoroark is a Kitsune reminds me of the movie 'Pom Poko,' as it too had a fox in it. Also, I know that this is a stupid question, but a lot of people told me to tell you that you should put Zordrak from {{wp|The Dreamstone}} in the name origin, saying that their names are similar but not related! - [[User:Cynthia149]] 09:21, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
:We've been over this before. We're not adding Zodrak to the name origin.--[[User:Pokelova|''Poké'']][[User talk:Pokelova|lova!]] 08:47, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
:: Very well, but other people will soon find out by looking at the resembelance of it's name!!? - [[User:Cynthia149]] 16:26, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
:::If their names are similar but '''not related''', it is ''not'' going in the name origin. Because it's a coincidence. So what if they both end in "ark" and begin with "Zo"? It is not going into the name origin, it is not going into trivia or anywhere on the page. Zoroark's name is from "zorro" (fox) and "dark". Not a British TV show from 15 years ago. Please stop asking about this, because the answer is not going to change. ▫▫'''[[User:Tina|ティナ]]'''[[User talk:Tina|♫]][[Special:Contributions/Tina|★]] 16:03, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

== English name!!! ==

Anyone gone to Pokebeach today? According to them, Zoroark.com redirects to Pokemon.com, meaning that it keeps its japanese name! Should the article reflect this or something? - ''unsigned comment from [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] ([[User talk:Missingno.

I believe it's the name, but I can't do anything bout the page bcuz i'm not a mod :/ [[User:MatoroBro0107|MB17]]

::It does. Zoroark.com, Reshiram.com and Zekrom.com all redirects to Pokémon.com's B/W site, unlike Tsutarja.com, Pokabu.com and Mijumaru.com, which all redirects to Melbourne IT.

:::How 'bout we wait for official confirmation?--[[User:Pokelova|''Poké'']][[User talk:Pokelova|lova!]] 16:47, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
::::Well, my ''Official Nintendo Magazine - Australia and New Zealand'' 18 June 2010 issue page 006 names Zoroark and {{p|Zorua}} as those names. Compare this to the 17 May 2010 issue pages 030 and 031 where [[Pokémon Ranger: Locus of Light]] is referred to as ''Pokémon Ranger 3'', and noted to be roughly translated to ''Path of Light'' or ''Tracks of Light''. This shows that it is highly likely to be the English name. However, I have not purchased this magazine during periods where other new Pokémon were being revealed, so I cannot compare it to the releases of Sinnoh Pokémon. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 10:02, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
:::::I haven't got my issue yet. :| And the mag started after Gen IV was already out so yeah.--[[User:Pokelova|''Poké'']][[User talk:Pokelova|lova!]] 10:07, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
::::::Isn't time to add all the B/W sprites/backsprites in the Pokémon articles? (Couldn't find any other place to write this...) --[[User:Icy|Icy]] 14:41, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
:::::::Uh... this is NOT the place to write this. You're supposed to create a new section at the bottom of the page. As for the sprites, we'll get them when we get them. --[[User:AndyPKMN|AndyPKMN]] 17:39, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

==Scary Face==

Hey, can one of you administrators put down the fact it can learn Scary Face? It used it in a recent trailer. It and Zorua also have other moves which can be translated from screenshots. [[User:Torngentleman2|MAMOSWINEPwnz! (Torngentleman2)]] 10:02, 27 June 2010 (UTC)

== Zoroark seems to have fused with kabuki. ==

Kabuki is classical Japanese dance-drama. 連獅子(Renjishi) seems to correspond.

It might be necessary for Trivia.[[User:Sawamular101|Sawamular101]] 02:48, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

== Korean ==

[http://pokemonkorea.co.kr/html/animation/th_list13.asp Zoroark's Korean name revealed]. As expected, it's 조로아크 (RR: Joroakeu, MC-R: Choroak'ŭ, Yale: Coloakhu), which is a transliteration of Zoroark, of course. This way, Zorua is probably 조로아 but it's not confirmed and I don't want to assume. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 09:08, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

== Reshiram? ==

Why is Reshiram right after Zoroark? --[[User:Landfish7|Land]][[User talk:Landfish7|fish]]'''7 16:50, 16 July 2010 (UTC)
:See [[Talk:Reshiram_(Pokémon)#zoroark listing]]. This will be changed when an [[Aqua Admin|admin]] gets to it. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 07:34, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

== Bad Trivia, bad, bad! ==

Hey. Trivia + Zoroark pararrel Lucario + bad idea.--[[User talk:444Zekrom|444]][[User:444Zekrom|Z]][[Zekrom|ekrom]] 10:38, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
:I don't see a problem. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 10:43, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
::It was just a rumor. And fan rumor, too.--[[User talk:444Zekrom|444]][[User:444Zekrom|Z]][[Zekrom|ekrom]] 10:46, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
:::Yet it's still somewhat valid, particularly the part about them both being featured as the subject of a movie prior to their generation. I think it can stay. --[[User:AndyPKMN|AndyPKMN]] 11:54, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
::::Oh, alright.--[[User talk:444Zekrom|444]][[User:444Zekrom|Z]][[Zekrom|ekrom]] 07:37, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

== Gender ==

On the page it says that Zoroark is more likely to be male. In [[Lost Forest]] it is 100% female. Is the 87.5% male thing supposed to be for when the event Zorua evolves? —[[User:Zekasaur|♫Ze]][[User talk:Zekasaur|kas]][[Special:Contributions/Zekasaur|aur♫]] 01:00, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
:the one in lost forest is female because the movie zoroark is female..[[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 01:05, 31 October 2010 (UTC)

== Behaviour ==

Should we add that it is considered a specific behaviour that Zoroark have that their eyes glow when they are angry, probably to warn foes to stay back? or something along those lines? --[[User:Landfish7|'''Land''']][[User talk:Landfish7|'''fish7''']]''' 02:48, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
:If their eyes do indeed glow for that purpose, I don't see why not. - ''unsigned comment from [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] ([[User talk:Missingno. Master|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Missingno._Master|contribs]])'' 02:53, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

== Final? ==

Is Zoroark's English Name final? I mean they won't change it at the last minute? Will they? --{{unsigned|Mr.Char}}

It's been confirmed that Zorua and Zoroark will remain the same in English... -- [[User:Aura24|Aura24]] 00:58, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

== Evolution ==

When it was revealed in CoroCoro and mentioned in later issues prior to release, it was mentioned that Zorua would evolve into Zoroark by a brand new method, yet when the games were released, Zorua simply evolves into Zoroark at Level 30 with no other special conditions. Is it worth trivia? [[User:Shiramu Kuromu|Shiramu Kuromu]] 18:00, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
:I think it would be. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 11:41, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
::I added it to the page now, so how do I put this as a source?
http://pokebeach.com/2010/02/new-pokemon-revealed-zorua-zoroark
I know other fansites can't be used for info, but when I looked up the article on Bulbanews on Zoroark, it didn't have any translations of the line in question: “Could we see a new method of evolution!?”. It's on the pages both Pokemon were revealed on, but it wasn't noticed on Bulbanews for some reason so I had to find it from the PokeBeach article on it. [[User:Shiramu Kuromu|Shiramu Kuromu]] 20:23, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

== Zoroaaku ==

Why is the search menu ''Zoroaaku'' instead of ''Zoroark''? --[[User:Maii|Maii]] 23:25, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
:Both ''Zoroaaku'' and ''Zoroark'' redirect here. They both work. The former is just a more literal transliteration of its Japanese name. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 14:06, 30 March 2011 (UTC)

== Name Origin ==

"Also may come from 悪, aku (evil)."

How does that make any sense? Yes, it has an "a" and a "k" in its name, but they're not even in order. [[User:King Riolu|King Riolu]] 21:43, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

:Basic romanization of Zoroark is Zoroa'''aku'''. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 21:51, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

== Zoroark and Ditto ==

I discovered that Ditto cannot transform into Zoroark when it is in the illusion form. I battled several wild one's in Pokemon Black with my Zoroark in the illusion form of Reshiram and another pokemon. When the Ditto would try to use transform the game would say the move failed. Thus Ditto could not attack my Zoroark at all.{{unsigned|ZoroarkRuless11}}

== Iris? ==

Zoroark and Iris's similarities? Its mainly the hair and the way they carry pokemon around in it?[[User:Prinben|Prinben]] 11:03, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

'''Marill''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''マリル''' ''Maril'') is a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Azurill}} when [[level]]ed up with high [[happiness]], and evolves into {{p|Azumarill}} starting at [[level]] 18.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Marill is a small blue mammalian Pokémon. It has a nearly spherical shape with a white underside (belly) and round ears with red ear insides. It also possesses a wiry black tail with a blue "bubble" on the end of it. The tail's jagged appearance originally led people to believe that it was related to {{p|Pikachu}}. Marill's tail is flexible and configured to stretch.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Aside from being able to swim well, it also has excellent hearing. It has water-repellent fur that allows it ease of swimming and reduces friction with the water. The tip of its tail, which contains oil that is lighter than water, keeps Marill afloat while swimming.

===Behavior===
Its tail can be seen bobbing on the water's surface while Marill dives underwater to feed on aquatic plants. When fishing for food at the edge of a fast-running stream, Marill wraps its tail around the trunk of a tree. Although the behavior of bouncing on its tail is more commonly characterized by its pre-evolution, Azurill, as evidenced by the episode ''[[AG032|Abandon Ship!]]'' Marill may also do this on occasion.

===Habitat===
[[File:Watersedge.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon}}]]
This Pokémon is normally found in and around fresh water.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Marill are {{a|Sap Sipper|herbivores}}. Its diet mainly includes water grasses on riverbeds.

==In the anime==
[[File:Lulu Marill.png|thumb|right|235px|Marill in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Tracey's Marill]]====
[[Tracey Sketchit]] owns a Marill of his own.

====[[Lyra's Marill]]====
{{an|Lyra}} also owns a Marill.

====Other====
Marill first appeared in ''[[PK01|Pikachu's Vacation]]''. It was causing trouble for Pikachu and co. along with a {{p|Raichu}}, a {{p|Snubbull}}, and a {{p|Cubone}}.

[[Wilhelmina]]'s Marill appeared in ''[[EP132|For Crying Out Loud]]''. This one was a bit of a crybaby and it got lost in a forest with {{an|Misty}}.

{{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} and an {{p|Elekid}} both fall in love with a Marill in ''[[DP137|Three Sides to Every Story!]]''.

===Minor appearances===

==In the manga==
===In the Magical Pokémon Journey manga===
{{main|Marimaru}}
[[Apricot]]'s main Pokémon in the Magical Pokémon Journey manga is Marimaru, a Marill. Marimaru holds Apricot in very high regard and helps her train to become a ninja. [[Madam Azumarill]] is her mother.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Wild Marill have been seen sometimes, and made a few cameos as rental Pokémon. Its {{p|Azumarill|evolved form}} is seen much more often, however.

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

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

* {{TFG|Next Quest}}: {{TFG ID|Next Quest|Marill|31}}

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
When released from a Poké Ball, Marill will immediately start running in the direction the ball was thrown. Any opponents in the way will be juggled with its {{m|Tackle}} attack. It can be knocked off the screen with a strong enough attack.

====Trophy information====
This Aqua Mouse Pokémon evolves into Azumarill. The round ball on the end of its tail acts like a flotation device, so it can float safely on the roughest of water conditions. It resides on [[Mt. Mortar]] in seclusion; few of the creatures are ever seen. Marill's cuteness has earned it a large and loyal fan base.

==Trivia==
[[Image:Alpha mariru.png|thumb|150px|Early concept art for Marill]]
* Marill's early design had a pink body instead of blue, noticebly smaller ears, and lacked the erractic tail pattern.
* For months prior to the release of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, Marill was often incorrectly referred to as "Pikablu", likely because of its slight resemblance to {{p|Pikachu}}.
** It is even referred to as "Pikablu" on the [[Pokémon the First Movie Trading Cards|Topps trading cards for the first movie]].
* Marill's name was originally spelled '''Marril''', as shown in some merchandise for [[M01|the first movie]].
* Marill was the fourth Generation II Pokémon to appear before the Johto series (after {{p|Ho-Oh}}, {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} and {{p|Donphan}})
* Marill is the only Pokémon that evolves from a pure {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon but isn't a Normal-type itself, other than the [[Eeveelution]]s.
* Since its introduction, Marill has been available in every Japan-centric regional [[Pokédex]].

===Origin===
Marill may be based upon a combination of a {{wp|mouse}} and a {{wp|beach ball}} or possibly a {{wp|personal flotation device}} or {{wp|lifebuoy}}. Its body and ears also resemble a {{wp|water molecule}}.

====Name origin====
Marill's name may be a combination of ''marine'', of the water, and ''rill'', a small river or brook. The name may also come from a contraction of the phrase ''marine blue''. In Japanese, it's possible that the name could have derived from 丸い ''marui'', ''round'' or ''circular'', or 鞠 ''mari'', ball, and 瑠璃 ''ruri'', {{wp|lapis lazuli}}.

Talk:List of alternately colored Pokémon in animation

2011-10-08T20:03:09Z

Prinben: /* Pikachu-colored Pichu? */ new section

One thing, though- did that Shuckle use any attacks? [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] wants YOU! [[User:Missingno. Master/The Order of the Glitch/Bulbapedia Branch|Join the Order of the Glitch!]] [[User talk: Missingno. Master|(my talk page)]] 16:03, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

== Move ==

Should I move this to "List of alternate colored Pokémon in the anime"? That way, Pink Butterfree could be included. --[[User:CuboneKing|Cu]][[User talk:CuboneKing|bo]][[Special:Contributions/CuboneKing|ne]][[Cubone (Pokémon)|King]] 18:05, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:Agreed. It should be moved. We have many other Pokémon that should be mentioned. Like the Orange Island Pokémon. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 03:09, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

== Pikachu-colored Pichu ==

Isn't it considered to be in the anime, even appering only in and ending sequence? -- [[User:RikkiKitsune|R<s>ikki</s>]][[User talk:RikkiKitsune|Kitsune]] 00:36, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
:Technically. Throw it in. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 00:51, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
==Shiny Magneton==
Does the shiny Magneton picture really need to be PNG. [[User:Turtwig A|Turt]][[wig]] [[Turtwig (Pokémon)|A]] '''''[[Special:Contributions/Turtwig_A|Contributions]]''''' '''''[[User talk:Turtwig A|Talk]]''''' 13:16, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
:Yes, it does. -[[User:Sketch|Sketch]] 19:32, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
::And that doesn't mean resave the same image in PNG format either. Find the episode and do it properly. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 00:14, 1 October 2009 (UTC)

== Lapras ==

Why is everyone forgetting the Lapras from [[EP113]]? That was Ash's Lapras mother, IIRC. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 11:15, 10 November 2009 (UTC)

:Probably because Lapras's mother is not the same coloration as the game's alternate coloration standards. The game's standards have alternate-coloration Lapras as being purple.

:On the flip side of the coin, keep in mind that the episode in question, while very late in the [[Pokémon: The Adventures in the Orange Islands|Orange Islands]] [[arc]] (late enough in said arc to be part of season 3 in the dub, despite what Bulbapedia's warped standards on seasons, as well as more recent popular belief, imply; the theme song defines an ''arc'', not a ''season''), is still a [[Generation I]]-era episode, hence the game's alternate-coloration standards wouldn't apply to it. Hence it could technically qualify as a slight color variation, given that this IS the Orange Islands after all...

:My [[$1|2¢]]: Let the war room look this over and make a judgment, then allow time for it to be implemented properly. It just might turn out in your favor (I'd go ahead and say the odds favor you). --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 16:27, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
::Huh... but Pink Butterfree, Crystal Onix and others are listed. -- [[User:RikkiKitsune|R<s>ikki</s>]][[User talk:RikkiKitsune|Kitsune]] 20:59, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
:::How different did it look? I don't remember it being that much, or I'd actually remember myself. Also, Pikablu, 4Kids may have ordered the episodes together, but hey, they're the company that called this thing ({{MS|058|Growlithe (Pokémon)}}) an Arcanine. Repeatedly.

::::It is in lighter color then regular Lapras, as seen in the picture on [[EP113]]'s article. I think it should me added. -- [[User:RikkiKitsune|R<s>ikki</s>]][[User talk:RikkiKitsune|Kitsune]] 21:11, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

== Protection ==
I think this page should be protected until July 10, just out of cautiousness until it is confirmed for sure whether or not the Legendary Beasts in the Zoroark movie actually are shiny. --[[User:The Great Butler|The Great Butler]] 07:10, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

== OK, ==

Can we at least sort the anime-exclusive colorations from the true shinies? - ''unsigned comment from [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] ([[User talk:Missingno. Master|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Missingno._Master|contribs]])'' 21:34, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
:<strike>It's a wiki, go for it.</strike> I got there first. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 10:32, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

== Crystal Onix's Type==
Just added Lapras's mother to the list. This page show the Crystal Onix as a Rock/Ground type. While regular Onix are this type, the Crystal Onix is clearly a completely different type (like Wormadam for example), due to its immunity to Water type Attacks & weakness to Fire type attacks, and also the fact that it is not made of rock, but rather crystal or glass. Its type is clearly not Rock but since Crystal is not a type (except in the TCG) it needs be changed to the ??? type or ???/Ground.[[User:Vuvuzela2010|Vuvuzela2010]] 14:30, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
:I don't think that's necessary; the only indication of type on the page is the template colors, and the ??? color is in my opinion, nasty looking. --[[User:AndyPKMN|AndyPKMN]] 15:40, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

== Sudowoodo ==
What about the Golden sudowoodo in episode AG173? {{unsigned|Gliscorguy54}}
:Dubious. It was a normal Sudowoodo turned gold by artificial means, and then turned back. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 07:15, 30 October 2010 (UTC)
::So that Red Gyarados wasn't evolved through artificial means? How interesting. —[[User:Raptor39|Raptor39]] 01:47, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
Still I think it should be mentioned [[User:Mr.Char|Mr.Char]] 00:00, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

== Electrode ==

What about the watermelon-colored Electrode in [[AG041]]? --[[User:ShadowLugiaEx|ShadowLugiaEx]] 20:53, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
:I think that one was just painted in disguise, though I may be wrong. [[User:Vuvuzela2010|Vuvuzela2010]] 21:03, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
how about the mysterious exploding watermelon at the end of movie 12, the one with Arceus in it, it appears when team Rocket picks it up after the credits.

== Mismagius ==

Doesn't Kodai's Mismagius count as Alternately colored because of those long extensions on its' body?
:I've looked up Kodai's Mismagius and see no difference between it or any other Mismagius. You'll need to provide a pic or something. '''X'''[[User:Vuvuzela2010|'''Vuvuzela2010''']]'''X''' 23:37, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
Aw crap you're right. Sorry I just haven't seen a Mismagius in a long time so I forgot what they look like. [[User:Mr.Char|Mr.Char]] 23:55, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

== Jigglypuff ==

Shouldn't we add Lisa Mitchum's Jigglypuff and Little Pink as "Non-standard alternate coloration"? [[User:Mr.Char|Mr.Char]] 23:41, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
:I don't see why not, though you should probably add that it is most likely to differ other Jigglypuff from the main anime one.. '''X'''[[User:Vuvuzela2010|'''Vuvuzela2010''']]'''X''' 23:04, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
But how do you upload images? I don't know how! Can someone please tell me how? Please? [[User:Mr.Char|Mr.Char]] 23:41, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
Oh, never mind I see someone already added it. [[User:Mr.Char|Mr.Char]] 23:43, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

== Suggestion ==

How about we create a separate page for the actual shinies, and leave this page to deal with the anime-exclusive alternate colored stuff? The shiny section of this page would consist of "Main article: List of Shiny Pokémon in the anime" or something like that. If this is acceptible, I could get going on this right now. - ''unsigned comment from [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] ([[User talk:Missingno.

== Pink switch removal ==

I don't agree with the removal of the switch for the Pink Pokemon. Yes, the current image depicts some of the Pokemon listed, but the switch helps show the rest. And it is a much better solution than listing each Pink Pokemon individually. It works for the Valencian Pokemon, so I don't see why it can't be the same for the Pink Pokemon.
