Rmkane: /* National Dex number. */ Added signature...

==Generational status==
[https://old.reddit.com/r/TheSilphRoad/comments/9ihip7/ According to Joe Merrick], Meltan is treated internally as if it were part of Generation VII, but that does not necessarily mean that it ''is'' part of Generation VII. Am I correct in saying that its generational status is unconfirmed at this time? [[User:Bwburke94|bwburke94]] ([[User talk:Bwburke94|talk]]) 14:31, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
:I'm pretty sure Bulbapedia doesn't consider "treated internally" to mean much of anything, judging by the way folks handled the question of which Gen VII Pokémon are Legendary. Unless Meltan itself becomes available in a game that's definitely Gen VII or definitely Gen VIII, we should hold off on classifying it one way or the other. — [[User:Randomwaffle23|Randomwaffle23]] ([[User talk:Randomwaffle23|talk]]) 15:18, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
::That being the case, considering sources have cited that it is introduced in Let's Go and conventions state that Let's Go is part of Gen VII, it would probably be similar in case to that of the USUM exclusive Legends/UBs.
::On the other hand, what if it stands as a cameo appearance in Let's Go (ala Munchlax, Bonsly, and Lucario in Rescue Team)? Would conventions point it to a Gen VIII label instead?
::— [[User:Lanthanum|Lanthanum]] ([[User talk:Lanthanum|talk]]) 15:52, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
:::I honestly think Meltan counts as a Gen 7 Pokémon. Since it was introduced in a Gen 7 Game and not as of yet the unknown Gen 8 game , plus they have not officially stated it for the moment. Heck the Mythical Pokémon section on here conspired it a Gen 7 Pokémon. For now I think it should stay that under Generation 7 section for the time until the game are fully released and explains it properly.--[[User:Jacob9594|Jacob Kogan]] ([[User talk:Jacob9594|talk]]) 17:51, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
Are we waiting until its National Dex number is confirmed before calling it a Gen 7 Pokemon? We have all the other proof: available in a main series game considered Gen 7 by Bulbapedia; available in a main series game released between Sun/Moon and 2019. — [[User:Crunchdog29|Crunchdog29]] ([[User talk:Crunchdog29|talk]]) 23:19, 29 September 2018 (UTC)
:We're waiting on what the official sources say. Its dex number isn't going to be of any help, since the USUM Ultra Beasts comes after the first SM mons.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:03, 30 September 2018 (UTC)
::That's assuming that Meltan is placed between the Gen 7 and Gen 8 Pokémon. If they place him among other G8 Pokémon, surely that would mean that he's officially considered part of that Gen. - [[User:Golden Trainer|Golden Trainer]] ([[User talk:Golden Trainer|talk]]) 21:26, 24 October 2018 (UTC)
:::Regardless of its generational status, although it's more than likely that they're Gen VII Pokémon due to making their mainline debut in LGPE, [https://twitter.com/JoeMerrick/status/1055928496344711169 datamining of Go's traffic network by the same guy who initially discovered Meltan has found their dex numbers to be 808 and 809].

==Trivia piece==
Can someone add the following as trivia:
* Meltan is tied with {{alo|Diglett}} and {{p|Klefki}} as the [[List of Pokémon by height|shortest]] {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.

Please and thank you. ''[[User:Frozen Fennec|Frozen]] [[User talk:Frozen Fennec|Fennec]]'' 18:11, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

== Additional Info ==

The Let's Go site
[https://pokemonletsgo.pokemon.com/en-us/new-pokemon/]
has a bunch of new info. Someone with write access please add. [[User:Mtmerrick|Mtmerrick]] ([[User talk:Mtmerrick|talk]]) 18:42, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

== More additional info ==

Add "It is currently unknown if it [[Evolution|evolves]] into or from another Pokémon.", just below what the top text says. [[User:Wrrasba|Wrrasba]] ([[User talk:Wrrasba|talk]]) 21:55, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

==Suggestion for some more additional info==
===In side games===
Meltan first appeared as a disguised [[Ditto (Pokémon)|Ditto]] in [[Pokémon GO]] immediately after the conclusion of the [[Chikorita (Pokémon)|Chikorita]] [[Community Day (Pokémon GO)|Community Day]] on September 22nd 2018 in the Asia-Pacific region when it was widely in the wild available for 30 minutes. The same phenomenon repeated itself at the conclusion of the other 2 regions' respective community days later on that day. After his initial appearance in the Asia-Pacific region, Meltan-disguised Ditto remained available in the wild as a rare spawn worldwide. On September 25th 2018, official announcement revealing the name of this new Pokémon was published in-game and on the official Pokémon GO website<ref>[https://pokemongolive.com/en/post/meltan-announcement/ Trainers from all over the world have reported sightings of a mysterious Pokémon!]</ref>.

===In other media===
On September 25th 2018, publications on the official Twitter pages of The Pokémon Company<ref>[https://twitter.com/Pokemon The Pokémon Company official Twitter]</ref>, Pokémon GO<ref>[https://twitter.com/PokemonGoApp Pokémon GO official Twitter]</ref> and Nintendo of America<ref>[https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica Nintendo of America official Twitter]</ref> revealed facts about Meltan, including its name, type, height and weight. Later on that day the Official Pokémon YouTube channel<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/user/pokemon The Official Pokémon YouTube channel]</ref> also released a video were [[Professor Willow]] contacts his mentor [[Professor Oak]] to discuss about the new species discovered<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvLDA70ZvbU The Two Professors Episode 1: A New Pokémon Has Been Discovered!] on YouTube</ref>.

== Additional info ==

Can someone add that Meltan is tied with Land Forme Shaymin as the shortest Mythical Pokémon in the trivia? Please? [[User:Pika fanatic|Pika fanatic]] ([[User talk:Pika fanatic|talk]]) 23:11, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

:I concur. This hasn't been added in yet. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 02:49, 27 September 2018 (UTC)

Considering Meltan uses electricity, I think his tail with the two ends is supposed to be an electric plug. [[User:Eevee-Girl|Eevee-Girl]] ([[User talk:Eevee-Girl|talk]]) 06:34, 30 September 2018 (UTC)
:: I think it's more like a cut electrical wire, since the ends are too thin to be plugs. I believe the concept comes from an electromagnet, with the cord attaching to the metal nut to create a magnetic field within the "head" in which its eye is floating. [[User:Yoriven|Yoriven]] ([[User talk:Yoriven|talk]]) 07:35, 30 September 2018 (UTC)
::: That might make more sense! Although Japanese plug ends are very thin and flat. [[User:Eevee-Girl|Eevee-Girl]] ([[User talk:Eevee-Girl|talk]]) 09:03, 30 September 2018 (UTC)

== Name Origin ==

What exactly is Meltan's name origin? I assume that the "Melt" part comes from its liquid body but what about the rest? It might need adding. '''Ice''' [[User talk:The IceCream|Cream]] 14:45, 6 October 2018 (UTC)
:It's already on the page. [[User:ArcToraphim|Kai]] * the [[User talk:ArcToraphim|Arc]] [[Special:Contributions/ArcToraphim|Toraph]] 16:15, 6 October 2018 (UTC)
::Oh it was? Ah, must have missed it. '''Ice''' [[User talk:The IceCream|Cream]] 19:29, 6 October 2018 (UTC)

== Nuts and Bolts ==
Can someone change the "hexagonal bolt" in the Biology paragraph to say "hexagonal nut"? A bolt is what would go into the nut. Someone got it right in the Origin section but not in Biology. [[User:Yoriven|Yoriven]] ([[User talk:Yoriven|talk]]) 13:34, 7 October 2018 (UTC)

== National Dex number. ==

Shouldn't we add the National Dex number for Meltan and Melmetal? According to network traffic from Pokémon Go, the National Dex numbers for them are #808 and #809, respectively. [[User:Weedle Mchairybug|Weedle Mchairybug]] ([[User talk:Weedle Mchairybug|talk]]) 10:25, 27 October 2018 (UTC)

'''Remoraid''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''テッポウオ''' ''Teppouo'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Octillery}} starting at [[level]] 25.

If a Remoraid is in the party when a {{p|Mantyke}} levels up, the Mantyke evolves into {{p|Mantine}}. However, this will not affect the Remoraid and it continues to be a separate Pokémon.

==Biology==
Remoraid is a light blue, fish-like Pokémon with saucer-like eyes, and a mouth with four pointed teeth. There are two dark stripes on its back that resembles the barrel of a revolver. It has a single pelvic fin positioned like a revolver's trigger, two small pectoral fins, and a dorsal fin near its mouth resembling a gun's front sight. In addition, it has two caudal fins, the bottom of which resembling the butt of a gun and the top resembling the hammer. All of its fins except for the dorsal fin are white.

Remoraid is well known for its ability to shoot jets of water from the surface with incredible accuracy and distance, often to shoot down flying insect prey out of the air. It tends to travel by attaching to {{p|Mantine}}'s fins or in large groups of its own kind. When attached to a Mantine, it feeds on whatever the Mantine leaves behind, but will fight alongside it as well. Remoraid is a {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|sea-dwelling}} Pokémon, but when evolution draws near, Remoraid travels downstream from rivers.

==In the anime==

==Trivia==
* The Gunfish enemy that appears underwater in Stage 6 of {{wp|Pulseman}} bears [[List of references to Pulseman|a resemblance]] to Remoraid, as they are both combinations of fish and revolver pistols. This may be on purpose due to the fact that [[Ken Sugimori]] designed the characters in this game and also designs Pokémon.
* Remoraid is the only Pokémon so far that is needed to evolve another Pokémon in the same party. Without Remoraid's presence, {{p|Mantyke}} cannot evolve into {{p|Mantine}}. In the anime and Pokédex entries however, it is shown that {{p|Shellder}} is needed to evolve {{p|Slowpoke}}.
**However, {{p|Pancham}} requires any {{type|Dark}} Pokémon to be in the party to evolve into {{p|Pangoro}}.
* Remoraid can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Qwilfish}}. Both of them are {{type|Water}} {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}}. Remoraid is exclusive to [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|LeafGreen]], while Qwilfish is exclusive to [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed]], with both Pokémon found in the same locations in their respective versions.
* If one was to rearrange the [[Pokérap GS]] so all the Pokémon are in National Pokédex order, Remoraid would remain in its position in the song.

===Origin===
Remoraid's talent for shooting attacks is similar to an {{wp|archerfish}}'s. Considering its relationship to {{p|Mantyke}} and {{p|Mantine}} it appears to also be based on a {{wp|remora}}. Its shooting abilities, general shape, and appearance make it similar to {{wp|firearm}}s, more specifically, {{wp|revolver}}s.

====Name origin====
Remoraid may be a combination of ''{{wp|remora}}'' and ''raid'' (a rapid attack). Alternatively, it could be a combination of ''remora'' and ''aid'', denoting the health benefits of some fish which clean others.

Teppouo may be a combination of 鉄砲 ''teppō'' (gun, as in {{wp|water gun}}) and 魚 ''uo'' (fish). 鉄砲魚 ''teppōuo'' is also the Japanese name for the archerfish.

{{bulbanews|game}}
{{StrategyWiki}}
'''Pokémon GO''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|Pokémon GO|ポケモン　ゴー}}}}''') is a multiplayer, location-based, {{wp|augmented reality}} Pokémon game for {{wp|iOS}} and {{wp|Android (operating system)|Android}}. The game results from a collaboration between [[The Pokémon Company]], [[Nintendo]], and [[Niantic]], Inc., and is {{wp|Freemium|free to download}} with in-app purchases. It was released in most markets with access to the iOS App Store or Google Play Store on a staggered schedule starting on July 6, 2016.

The game was announced at a press conference in Japan on September 10, 2015. Field tests for Pokémon GO were held from March 29, 2016 through June 30, 2016.

The game is compatible with the [[Pokémon GO Plus]], a {{wp|Bluetooth}} device that allows players to enjoy elements of the game without looking at their phone. Compatibility with the {{wp|Apple Watch}} was added in an update on December 22, 2016.

==Blurb==
Venusaur, Charizard, Blastoise, Pikachu, and many other Pokémon have been discovered on planet Earth!

Now’s your chance to discover and capture the Pokémon all around you—so get your shoes on, step outside, and explore the world. You’ll join one of three teams and battle for the prestige and ownership of Gyms with your Pokémon at your side.

Pokémon are out there, and you need to find them. As you walk around a neighborhood, your smartphone will vibrate when there’s a Pokémon nearby. Take aim and throw a Poké Ball… You’ll have to stay alert, or it might get away!

Search far and wide for Pokémon and items

Certain Pokémon appear near their native environment—look for Water-type Pokémon by lakes and oceans. Visit PokéStops, found at interesting places like museums, art installations, historical markers, and monuments, to stock up on Poké Balls and helpful items.

Catching, hatching, evolving, and more

As you level up, you’ll be able to catch more-powerful Pokémon to complete your Pokédex. You can add to your collection by hatching Pokémon Eggs based on the distances you walk. Help your Pokémon evolve by catching many of the same kind.

Take on Gym battles and defend your Gym

As your Charmander evolves to Charmeleon and then Charizard, you can battle together to defeat a Gym and assign your Pokémon to defend it against all comers.

It’s time to get moving—your real-life adventures await!

Note: This app is free-to-play and is optimized for smartphones, not tablets.

==Gameplay==
[[File:GO Guide Catch 3.png|thumb|200px|Encountering a wild Rattata, with AR mode disabled (Prior to 0.55.0 version)]]
In the game, [[wild Pokémon]] appear on a map of the real world, with the player moving in the game by travelling in the real world. When a Pokémon is nearby, the player's phone vibrates. The player can encounter a nearby Pokémon by tapping it in the Map View. Different kinds of Pokémon will appear in different environments; for example, {{type|Water}} Pokémon are more common near water. The player is assisted by [[Professor Willow]] throughout the game. Players can login using a [[Pokémon Trainer Club]] account or a Google account.

In a wild encounter, the player attempts to capture a wild Pokémon in a [[Poké Ball]] before it runs away. Unlike in the [[core series]] games, these encounters do not involve battle. At higher levels, the player can use [[Razz Berry|Razz Berries]] to make wild Pokémon easier to catch or use more powerful Poké Balls like {{ball|Great}}s and {{ball|Ultra}}. While holding a press on a Poké Ball, a ring will appear around the Pokémon. This ring shrinks over time; once it reaches its smallest size it immediately returns to full size and the cycle repeats. If the Poké Ball is thrown while the ring is very small, the capture is more likely to be successful.

The game can be played as an {{wp|augmented reality}} (AR) game, so that in wild encounters and Gym battles the Pokémon appear to be in the real world when looking at the smart device's screen. However, it is also possible to disable this functionality, which saves battery power and is necessary on some devices which do not support AR.

Catching and hatching Pokémon earns the player [[Candy]], which can be spent to [[evolution|evolve]] or [[Power Up]] Pokémon. Each evolutionary family has its own type of Candy, so in order to evolve a Pokémon the player needs to catch a number of Pokémon from that same evolutionary family. If a player wants to get rid of a Pokémon, they can transfer it to Professor Willow, who will permanently keep the Pokémon but give 1 Candy in return. Catching and hatching Pokémon also earns the player {{OBP|Stardust|GO}}, which also needs to be expended to [[Power Up]] Pokémon; unlike Candy, there is only one type of Stardust for all Pokémon.

There are two main types of locations in Pokémon GO: [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. PokéStops and Gyms exist at pre-defined real world locations, and the player must be within range of them in order to interact with them (although they can be inspected as long as they shown up in the Map View). Players can obtain items and {{pkmn|Egg}}s by visiting PokéStops, whereas players fight for control of Gyms.

Players can customize their appearance, such as clothing and accessories, which can be shown to other players. [[Pokémon Trainer]]s collect XP from performing various actions, such as catching Pokémon, which allows them to increase their Trainer [[level]]. Leveling up rewards the player with items, and some levels unlock features of the game. Wild Pokémon encountered by Trainers at higher levels are more likely to have higher CP. The maximum number of times an individual Pokémon can be [[Power Up|Powered Up]] increases with the Trainer's level.

[[PokéCoin]]s can be obtained in-game or via in-app purchases with real money. They can be traded for extra items and other enhancements.

===Available Pokémon===
Only Pokémon introduced in [[Generation]]s {{gen|I}} and {{gen|II}} are available in the game. All obtainable Generation I and II Pokémon (including evolved Pokémon) can be found in the wild, except [[baby Pokémon]], Pokémon that require an item to evolve into, and [[Legendary Pokémon]]. [[Baby Pokémon]] can only be hatched. Currently, only {{p|Smeargle}}, {{p|Delibird}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}}, {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Suicune}}, and [[Mythical Pokémon]] are not or have not been obtainable in the game. {{p|Mewtwo}} was previously available for a limited time.

====Limited availability====
{{p|Farfetch'd}}, {{p|Kangaskhan}}, {{p|Mr. Mime}}, {{p|Tauros}}, and {{p|Heracross}} appear to be region-exclusive, currently only being found in Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, and Central/South America respectively. {{p|Corsola}} is also a region-exclusive Pokémon, appearing between {{wp|latitude}} 26° S and 31° N. During special events, some of these Pokémon have been made available in other regions.

Some Legendary Pokémon have only been released for strictly limited periods. These include {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, and {{p|Moltres}}. Once their periods are up, there is no indication if or when they will be made available again.

====Special availability====
The player may choose from the three [[Kanto]] [[starter Pokémon]] at the beginning of the game: {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, or {{p|Squirtle}}. If the player walks away from the starter Pokémon four times, {{p|Pikachu}} will also appear as a possible starter Pokémon. These Pokémon may also be found in the wild later on.

While {{p|Eevee}}'s evolution is normally random, it can be [[nickname]]d to force it to evolve into a specific Pokémon: "Sparky" for {{p|Jolteon}}, "Rainer" for {{p|Vaporeon}}, "Pyro" for {{p|Flareon}},<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/4t0cpo/psa_how_to_force_your_eevee_to_evolve_into_your/?st=iqo9zize&sh=66e8bdd1</ref> "Sakura" for {{p|Espeon}}, and "Tamao" for {{p|Umbreon}}. These are the names of the [[Eevee brothers]] and the [[Kimono Girl]]s in the [[Pokémon anime]]. Each nickname can only influence evolution once per player.

===Locations===
There are two main types of locations in Pokémon GO: [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. PokéStops and Gyms exist at pre-defined real world locations, and the player must be within range of them in order to interact with them (although they can be inspected as long as they shown up in the Map View).

The locations of PokéStops and Gyms are based on a selection of portals from the Niantic game {{wp|Ingress (video game)|Ingress}}. Until 2015, Ingress players could submit proposals for portals which subsequently had to be approved by Niantic.

PokéStops allow players to obtain items and Eggs by spinning the Photo Disc. At Gyms, players can battle to weaken those belonging to opposing teams or strengthen those belonging to their own team; a player can earn {{OBP|Stardust|GO}} and [[PokéCoin]]s by holding onto Gyms. PokéStops are much more common than Gyms.

Depending on where a player lives, PokéStops and Gyms may be very common or very sparse, tending to be more common in urban areas due to a higher population density resulting in more Ingress players in those areas. If there are no nearby PokéStops, the player can only obtain Poké Balls by leveling up or purchasing them with PokéCoins; if there are no nearby Gyms, the player can only obtain PokéCoins by purchasing them with real currency.

===Teams===
[[File:GO Professors Assistants.png|300px|thumb|The Team Leaders, Candela, Blanche and Spark.]]
After the player reaches level 5, they can choose a team by tapping a Gym. There are three teams: Team Instinct (yellow) whose leader is Spark, Team Mystic (blue) whose leader is Blanche, and Team Valor (red) whose leader is Candela. A Gym can only be controlled by one team at a time. If a Gym is controlled by the player's team, they can train at it and add one of their own Pokémon to defend it. If a Gym is controlled by a rival team, the player can battle it to decrease its Prestige; when a Gym's Prestige reaches zero, any nearby player can claim it for their own team.

Pokémon Appraisal, added in version 0.35.0 (labelled version 1.5.0 on the iOS App Store), has the chosen Team's leader detail a Pokémon's stats much like a [[stats judge]] in the core series. They describe how good the Pokémon would be in a battle, which of its three stats is its highest, and how good its stats are overall. They will also note if the Pokémon's height or weight is particularly far from the average listed in the Pokédex.

===PokéCoins===
[[File:PokéCoin.png|thumb|100px|A PokéCoin]]
{{main|PokéCoin}}
PokéCoins are the in-app currency used in Pokémon GO. There are two ways of obtaining PokéCoins: the {{OBP|Gym|GO}} Defender bonus or by purchasing them with real money.

To obtain the Defender bonus, the player must assign a Pokémon to defend a Gym that currently has less than six defenders. Upon their Pokémon being knocked out, the player will receive a number of coins based on how long their Pokémon defended a Gym. No more than 50 coins can be earned every day, no matter how many defenders are stationed at Gyms.

===Experience===
{{main|Experience#Pokémon GO|Experience → Pokémon GO}}
In Pokémon GO, the player earns experience (abbreviated XP), rather than the Pokémon. As the player gains experience they gain levels. Leveling up awards the player with items, and certain levels unlock particular items. After reaching level 5, the player can choose a team, which allows them to use {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. As the player's level increases, their Pokémon are able to achieve a higher Combat Power as the player powers them up.

===Eggs===
[[File:GO Egg 2 km.png|thumb|150px|A 2 km egg in Pokémon GO (originally used for Eggs of all distances)]]
{{main|Pokémon Egg#Pokémon GO|Pokémon Egg → Pokémon GO}}
The player can obtain Eggs at [[PokéStop]]s. An Egg will hatch after traveling a certain distance while the Egg is in an incubator. Three Egg distances are possible: 2 km, 5 km, and 10 km. Each species has a set Egg distance and can only hatch from Eggs with this distance.
{{-}}
===Buddy===
[[File:Buddy Pokémon GO.png|thumb|150px|A Buddy Pokémon]]
{{main|Buddy Pokémon}}
By assigning a Buddy Pokémon, the player can receive additional Candies for that species of Pokémon as they walk. Depending on the species, the Buddy Pokémon will find 1 Candy every 1 km, 3 km or 5 km walked. The player can only have a single Buddy Pokémon at once.

===Medals===
{{main|Medal#Pokémon GO|Medal → Pokémon GO}}
The game has challenges that award [[Medal#Pokémon GO|medals]] upon completion. Medals can be viewed from a player's profile.

===Daily bonuses===
Daily bonuses give the player extra rewards the first time they perform certain actions each day (local time). They were added to Pokémon GO in version 0.45.0 (labelled 1.15.0 on the {{wp|App Store (iOS)|iOS App Store}}), which was released on November 7, 2016.

The first Pokémon the player catches each day earns the player a bonus 500 [[experience|XP]] and 600 {{OBP|Stardust|GO}}. If the player catches a Pokémon every day for 7 days in a row, they will earn a bonus of 2500 XP and 3000 Stardust.

The first [[PokéStop]] or {{OBP|Gym|GO}} the player searches each day earns the player a bonus 500 [[experience|XP]] and extra items. If the player searches PokéStops or Gyms every day for 7 days in a row, they will earn a bonus of 2500 XP and even more items. The 7-day streak bonus is guaranteed to give the player an Evolution item (such as [[King's Rock]]).

==Shop==
{{main|PokéCoin#Shop|PokéCoin → Shop}}
In the Shop, the player can make two kinds of purchases. They can purchase PokéCoins for real money or they can purchase in-game items for PokéCoins.

A number of the in-game items in the Shop can also be obtained by playing the game, but a few items are exclusive to the Shop: the Bag Upgrade, the Pokémon Storage Upgrade, and the Premium Raid Pass. The Shop also occasionally features limited-time "Box" deals (e.g., a Special Box) that include more than one kind of item.

==Music==
Some of the music in Pokémon GO was composed by [[Junichi Masuda]]. The music as well as the sound effects can be turned off in the [[options#Pokémon GO|settings]] of the app.

However, the game is also playable on some iOS and Android devices that are not officially supported.

==Connectivity==
Pokémon GO currently has no connectivity with other Pokémon games. However, [[Junichi Masuda]] has stated that the developers plan to add connectivity with the [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|next entry]] in the [[core series]] Pokémon games.<ref>[https://youtu.be/qqbsdqjgj-k?t=29m16s Pokémon GO - Demonstration - Nintendo E3 2016 (YouTube)]</ref><ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20160715175300/http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/news-from-the-pokemon-go-announcement/ News From the Pokémon GO Announcement - Pokemon.com (archived July 15, 2016)]</ref>

==Partnerships==
{{incomplete|section|Partnerships in Japan, Big Heritage partnership}}
Due to the popularity of Pokémon GO, the game has partnered with several other companies to offer special promotions. These partnerships often involve sponsored locations, wherein stores affiliated with the partner company become [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s; sponsored locations do not appear in the game for players under the age of 13.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Starbucks}} in the United States. Starting December 8, 2016, 7,800 company-operated Starbucks stores in the United States have been made into PokéStops and Gyms. Additionally, Starbucks is selling a special-edition Pokémon GO Frappuccino as part of this partnership; the Pokémon GO Frappuccino starts with a Vanilla Bean {{wp|Frappuccino}} blended beverage and raspberry syrup blended with freeze-dried whole blackberries and topped with whipped cream.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Sprint Corporation|Sprint}} in the United States. Starting December 7, 2016, 10,500 Sprint, {{wp|Boost Mobile}}, and Sprint at {{wp|RadioShack|Radioshack}} stores in the United States are becoming PokéStops and Gyms. Sprint locations also feature in-store charging stations to allow Pokémon GO players to charge their devices.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Jio|Reliance Jio Infocomm}} (which operates under the name Jio) in India. Starting December 13, 2016, nearly 3,000 Jio stores (thousands of {{wp|Reliance Digital}} stores according to Jio's press release) and select partner premises in India will become PokéStops or Gyms in the Pokémon GO, as well as offering charging stations for players. On Jio's social messaging app, JioChat, Pokémon players have access to an exclusive Pokémon GO channel to allow them to collaborate and be part of a community of players with daily tips, contests, clues, and special events. During Jio's "Happy New Year" offer, Jio {{wp|Subscriber identity module|SIM}} customers will be able to download and play Pokémon GO without incurring data charges, like any other apps and content, until March 31, 2017.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Unibail-Rodamco}} shopping malls across Europe. Starting on February 18, 2017 new PokéStops and Gyms across 58 shopping and destination centers in ten European countries were added. An average of a dozen new PokéStops and Gyms were added to public spaces, social hubs, and public art at each of the destination centers.

==Development==
The game was conceived by John Hanke after the development of Niantic's Ingress. It was decided that a game based on Pokémon would be a good choice, due to its focus on collecting the titular creatures. Hanke brought the idea to the Pokémon Company and talked with Mr. Isihara. Development began. Junichi Masuda worked with Niantic on the game's development.<ref>''Game Informer #81: Pokénomenon''</ref>

An Ingress Report released on September 10, 2015, the day of the game's announcement, stated that a closed beta would occur during Northern Hemisphere winter 2015 and that the game would be released in early 2016.<ref name="IngressReport">[https://youtu.be/HMsM1nzWiYw?t=2m22s INGRESS REPORT - Begin New Journey - Raw Feed September 10 2015]</ref> However, no beta testing occurred during 2015.<ref>[https://archive.is/0noAj Pokémon GO - Pokemon.com (archived February 7, 2016)]</ref><ref>[http://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2016/01/160108_at01.html 『Pokémon GO』のベータテストについて｜ポケットモンスターオフィシャルサイト]</ref>

Field tests were held in Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and the United States prior to the game's public release. Selected applicants were given the opportunity to test the game.
* Japan: held from March 29 to June 30, 2016, announced on March 3, 2016<ref>[https://archive.is/5731W Pokémon GO - Pokemon.com (archived March 3, 2016)]</ref><ref>[https://www.nianticlabs.com/blog/pokemon-fieldtest/ Pokémon GO field testing will begin in Japan - Niantic, Inc.]</ref>
* Australia and New Zealand: held from April 25 to June 30, 2016, announced on April 7, 2016<ref>[https://www.nianticlabs.com/blog/pokemon-fieldtest-au-nz/ Pokémon GO field testing expands to Australia and New Zealand - Niantic, Inc.]</ref>

A session at the {{wp|Game Developers Conference}} featuring the game [[n:Pokémon GO to be discussed at Game Developers Conference|was intended to be held]] by Niantic CEO John Hanke on March 14, 2016, but was later cancelled due to Niantic preparing the game for beta testing and launch.<ref>[http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2016/03/03/pokemon-go-gdc-presentation-canceled.aspx Pokémon Go GDC Presentation Canceled - www.GameInformer.com]</ref>

After its initial release on July 6, 2016, additional releases [[n:Niantic puts Pokémon GO's international rollout on hold|were put on hold]] due to server issues, but resumed on July 13, 2016, with the app's [[n:Pokémon GO now available in Germany|release in Germany]]. France was supposed to receive the app alongside other European countries, but the official release in the country was postponed due to the {{wp|2016 Nice attack}}.<ref>[http://fr.ign.com/pokemon-go-iphone/15934/news/pokemon-go-the-pokemon-company-confirme-le-report-francais Pokémon GO : The Pokémon Company confirme le report français]</ref>

{{bulbanews|game}}
{{StrategyWiki}}
'''Pokémon GO''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|Pokémon GO|ポケモン　ゴー}}}}''') is a multiplayer, location-based, {{wp|augmented reality}} Pokémon game for {{wp|iOS}} and {{wp|Android (operating system)|Android}}. The game results from a collaboration between [[The Pokémon Company]], [[Nintendo]], and [[Niantic]], Inc., and is {{wp|Freemium|free to download}} with in-app purchases. It was released in most markets with access to the iOS App Store or Google Play Store on a staggered schedule starting on July 6, 2016.

The game was announced at a press conference in Japan on September 10, 2015. Field tests for Pokémon GO were held from March 29, 2016 through June 30, 2016.

The game is compatible with the [[Pokémon GO Plus]], a {{wp|Bluetooth}} device that allows players to enjoy elements of the game without looking at their phone. Compatibility with the {{wp|Apple Watch}} was added in an update on December 22, 2016.

==Blurb==
Venusaur, Charizard, Blastoise, Pikachu, and many other Pokémon have been discovered on planet Earth!

Now’s your chance to discover and capture the Pokémon all around you—so get your shoes on, step outside, and explore the world. You’ll join one of three teams and battle for the prestige and ownership of Gyms with your Pokémon at your side.

Pokémon are out there, and you need to find them. As you walk around a neighborhood, your smartphone will vibrate when there’s a Pokémon nearby. Take aim and throw a Poké Ball… You’ll have to stay alert, or it might get away!

Search far and wide for Pokémon and items

Certain Pokémon appear near their native environment—look for Water-type Pokémon by lakes and oceans. Visit PokéStops, found at interesting places like museums, art installations, historical markers, and monuments, to stock up on Poké Balls and helpful items.

Catching, hatching, evolving, and more

As you level up, you’ll be able to catch more-powerful Pokémon to complete your Pokédex. You can add to your collection by hatching Pokémon Eggs based on the distances you walk. Help your Pokémon evolve by catching many of the same kind.

Take on Gym battles and defend your Gym

As your Charmander evolves to Charmeleon and then Charizard, you can battle together to defeat a Gym and assign your Pokémon to defend it against all comers.

It’s time to get moving—your real-life adventures await!

Note: This app is free-to-play and is optimized for smartphones, not tablets.

==Gameplay==
[[File:GO Guide Catch 3.png|thumb|200px|Encountering a wild Rattata, with AR mode disabled (Prior to 0.55.0 version)]]
In the game, [[wild Pokémon]] appear on a map of the real world, with the player moving in the game by travelling in the real world. When a Pokémon is nearby, the player's phone vibrates. The player can encounter a nearby Pokémon by tapping it in the Map View. Different kinds of Pokémon will appear in different environments; for example, {{type|Water}} Pokémon are more common near water. The player is assisted by [[Professor Willow]] throughout the game. Players can login using a [[Pokémon Trainer Club]] account or a Google account.

In a wild encounter, the player attempts to capture a wild Pokémon in a [[Poké Ball]] before it runs away. Unlike in the [[core series]] games, these encounters do not involve battle. At higher levels, the player can use [[Razz Berry|Razz Berries]] to make wild Pokémon easier to catch or use more powerful Poké Balls like {{ball|Great}}s and {{ball|Ultra}}. While holding a press on a Poké Ball, a ring will appear around the Pokémon. This ring shrinks over time; once it reaches its smallest size it immediately returns to full size and the cycle repeats. If the Poké Ball is thrown while the ring is very small, the capture is more likely to be successful.

The game can be played as an {{wp|augmented reality}} (AR) game, so that in wild encounters and Gym battles the Pokémon appear to be in the real world when looking at the smart device's screen. However, it is also possible to disable this functionality, which saves battery power and is necessary on some devices which do not support AR.

Catching and hatching Pokémon earns the player [[Candy]], which can be spent to [[evolution|evolve]] or [[Power Up]] Pokémon. Each evolutionary family has its own type of Candy, so in order to evolve a Pokémon the player needs to catch a number of Pokémon from that same evolutionary family. If a player wants to get rid of a Pokémon, they can transfer it to Professor Willow, who will permanently keep the Pokémon but give 1 Candy in return. Catching and hatching Pokémon also earns the player {{OBP|Stardust|GO}}, which also needs to be expended to [[Power Up]] Pokémon; unlike Candy, there is only one type of Stardust for all Pokémon.

There are two main types of locations in Pokémon GO: [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. PokéStops and Gyms exist at pre-defined real world locations, and the player must be within range of them in order to interact with them (although they can be inspected as long as they shown up in the Map View). Players can obtain items and {{pkmn|Egg}}s by visiting PokéStops, whereas players fight for control of Gyms.

Players can customize their appearance, such as clothing and accessories, which can be shown to other players. [[Pokémon Trainer]]s collect XP from performing various actions, such as catching Pokémon, which allows them to increase their Trainer [[level]]. Leveling up rewards the player with items, and some levels unlock features of the game. Wild Pokémon encountered by Trainers at higher levels are more likely to have higher CP. The maximum number of times an individual Pokémon can be [[Power Up|Powered Up]] increases with the Trainer's level.

[[PokéCoin]]s can be obtained in-game or via in-app purchases with real money. They can be traded for extra items and other enhancements.

===Available Pokémon===
Only Pokémon introduced in [[Generation]]s {{gen|I}} and {{gen|II}} are available in the game. All obtainable Generation I and II Pokémon (including evolved Pokémon) can be found in the wild, except [[baby Pokémon]], Pokémon that require an item to evolve into, and [[Legendary Pokémon]]. [[Baby Pokémon]] can only be hatched. Currently, only {{p|Smeargle}}, {{p|Delibird}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}}, {{p|Raikou}}, {{p|Entei}}, {{p|Suicune}}, and [[Mythical Pokémon]] are not or have not been obtainable in the game. {{p|Mewtwo}} was previously available for a limited time.

When the game was initially released, only Generation I Pokémon were available. The game has gradually updated to include previously unavailable Pokémon, primarily those from a later generation.
* November 23, 2016: {{p|Ditto}} became available, appearing disguised as {{p|Pidgey}}, {{p|Rattata}}, {{p|Zubat}}, or {{p|Magikarp}}.

* February 16, 2017: most remaining [[Generation II]] Pokémon became available. This included allowing [[Generation I]] Pokémon that have [[Generation II]] [[List of Pokémon with cross-generational evolutions|cross-generational evolutions]] to evolve into those Pokémon and {{p|Togetic}} now appearing in the wild. {{p|Ditto}} also became able to appear disguised as {{p|Hoothoot}}, {{p|Sentret}}, or {{p|Yanma}}.
* March 22, 2017: {{Shiny}} {{p|Magikarp}} became available, and by consequence Shiny {{p|Gyarados}} became available by evolution.

From August 14 to August 31, Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres were made simultaneously available.
* August 9, 2017: {{Shiny}} {{p|Pichu}} became hatchable, and {{Shiny}} {{p|Pikachu}} became available in {{wp|Yokohama}}. By consequence {{Shiny}} {{p|Raichu}} became available by evolution. They were released worldwide on August 14.
* August 12, 2017 Ditto became able to appear disguised as {{p|Pikachu}}.
* August 14, 2017: First [[Raid Battle]] including {{p|Mewtwo}} occured at Pokémon GO Stadium event.
* September 1, 2017: Raikou, Entei and Suicune are now avaliable through Raid Battles.

====Limited availability====
{{p|Farfetch'd}}, {{p|Kangaskhan}}, {{p|Mr. Mime}}, {{p|Tauros}}, and {{p|Heracross}} appear to be region-exclusive, currently only being found in Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, and Central/South America respectively. {{p|Corsola}} is also a region-exclusive Pokémon, appearing between {{wp|latitude}} 26° S and 31° N. During special events, some of these Pokémon have been made available in other regions.

Some Legendary Pokémon have only been released for strictly limited periods. These include {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, and {{p|Moltres}}. Once their periods are up, there is no indication if or when they will be made available again.

====Special availability====
The player may choose from the three [[Kanto]] [[starter Pokémon]] at the beginning of the game: {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, or {{p|Squirtle}}. If the player walks away from the starter Pokémon four times, {{p|Pikachu}} will also appear as a possible starter Pokémon. These Pokémon may also be found in the wild later on.

While {{p|Eevee}}'s evolution is normally random, it can be [[nickname]]d to force it to evolve into a specific Pokémon: "Sparky" for {{p|Jolteon}}, "Rainer" for {{p|Vaporeon}}, "Pyro" for {{p|Flareon}},<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/4t0cpo/psa_how_to_force_your_eevee_to_evolve_into_your/?st=iqo9zize&sh=66e8bdd1</ref> "Sakura" for {{p|Espeon}}, and "Tamao" for {{p|Umbreon}}. These are the names of the [[Eevee brothers]] and the [[Kimono Girl]]s in the [[Pokémon anime]]. Each nickname can only influence evolution once per player.

===Locations===
There are two main types of locations in Pokémon GO: [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. PokéStops and Gyms exist at pre-defined real world locations, and the player must be within range of them in order to interact with them (although they can be inspected as long as they shown up in the Map View).

The locations of PokéStops and Gyms are based on a selection of portals from the Niantic game {{wp|Ingress (video game)|Ingress}}. Until 2015, Ingress players could submit proposals for portals which subsequently had to be approved by Niantic.

PokéStops allow players to obtain items and Eggs by spinning the Photo Disc. At Gyms, players can battle to weaken those belonging to opposing teams or strengthen those belonging to their own team; a player can earn {{OBP|Stardust|GO}} and [[PokéCoin]]s by holding onto Gyms. PokéStops are much more common than Gyms.

Depending on where a player lives, PokéStops and Gyms may be very common or very sparse, tending to be more common in urban areas due to a higher population density resulting in more Ingress players in those areas. If there are no nearby PokéStops, the player can only obtain Poké Balls by leveling up or purchasing them with PokéCoins; if there are no nearby Gyms, the player can only obtain PokéCoins by purchasing them with real currency.

===Teams===
[[File:GO Professors Assistants.png|300px|thumb|The Team Leaders, Candela, Blanche and Spark.]]
After the player reaches level 5, they can choose a team by tapping a Gym. There are three teams: Team Instinct (yellow) whose leader is Spark, Team Mystic (blue) whose leader is Blanche, and Team Valor (red) whose leader is Candela. A Gym can only be controlled by one team at a time. If a Gym is controlled by the player's team, they can train at it and add one of their own Pokémon to defend it. If a Gym is controlled by a rival team, the player can battle it to decrease its Prestige; when a Gym's Prestige reaches zero, any nearby player can claim it for their own team.

Pokémon Appraisal, added in version 0.35.0 (labelled version 1.5.0 on the iOS App Store), has the chosen Team's leader detail a Pokémon's stats much like a [[stats judge]] in the core series. They describe how good the Pokémon would be in a battle, which of its three stats is its highest, and how good its stats are overall. They will also note if the Pokémon's height or weight is particularly far from the average listed in the Pokédex.

===PokéCoins===
[[File:PokéCoin.png|thumb|100px|A PokéCoin]]
{{main|PokéCoin}}
PokéCoins are the in-app currency used in Pokémon GO. There are two ways of obtaining PokéCoins: the {{OBP|Gym|GO}} Defender bonus or by purchasing them with real money.

To obtain the Defender bonus, the player must assign a Pokémon to defend a Gym that currently has less than six defenders. Upon their Pokémon being knocked out, the player will receive a number of coins based on how long their Pokémon defended a Gym. No more than 50 coins can be earned every day, no matter how many defenders are stationed at Gyms.

===Items===
====Key Items====

The following items are in the player's [[Bag]] by default. They have no quantity and cannot be tossed.

===Experience===
{{main|Experience#Pokémon GO|Experience → Pokémon GO}}
In Pokémon GO, the player earns experience (abbreviated XP), rather than the Pokémon. As the player gains experience they gain levels. Leveling up awards the player with items, and certain levels unlock particular items. After reaching level 5, the player can choose a team, which allows them to use {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. As the player's level increases, their Pokémon are able to achieve a higher Combat Power as the player powers them up.

===Eggs===
[[File:GO Egg 2 km.png|thumb|150px|A 2 km egg in Pokémon GO (originally used for Eggs of all distances)]]
{{main|Pokémon Egg#Pokémon GO|Pokémon Egg → Pokémon GO}}
The player can obtain Eggs at [[PokéStop]]s. An Egg will hatch after traveling a certain distance while the Egg is in an incubator. Three Egg distances are possible: 2 km, 5 km, and 10 km. Each species has a set Egg distance and can only hatch from Eggs with this distance.
{{-}}
===Buddy===
[[File:Buddy Pokémon GO.png|thumb|150px|A Buddy Pokémon]]
{{main|Buddy Pokémon}}
By assigning a Buddy Pokémon, the player can receive additional Candies for that species of Pokémon as they walk. Depending on the species, the Buddy Pokémon will find 1 Candy every 1 km, 3 km or 5 km walked. The player can only have a single Buddy Pokémon at once.

===Medals===
{{main|Medal#Pokémon GO|Medal → Pokémon GO}}
The game has challenges that award [[Medal#Pokémon GO|medals]] upon completion. Medals can be viewed from a player's profile.

===Daily bonuses===
Daily bonuses give the player extra rewards the first time they perform certain actions each day (local time). They were added to Pokémon GO in version 0.45.0 (labelled 1.15.0 on the {{wp|App Store (iOS)|iOS App Store}}), which was released on November 7, 2016.

The first Pokémon the player catches each day earns the player a bonus 500 [[experience|XP]] and 600 {{OBP|Stardust|GO}}. If the player catches a Pokémon every day for 7 days in a row, they will earn a bonus of 2500 XP and 3000 Stardust.

The first [[PokéStop]] or {{OBP|Gym|GO}} the player searches each day earns the player a bonus 500 [[experience|XP]] and extra items. If the player searches PokéStops or Gyms every day for 7 days in a row, they will earn a bonus of 2500 XP and even more items. The 7-day streak bonus is guaranteed to give the player an Evolution item (such as [[King's Rock]]).

==Shop==
{{main|PokéCoin#Shop|PokéCoin → Shop}}
In the Shop, the player can make two kinds of purchases. They can purchase PokéCoins for real money or they can purchase in-game items for PokéCoins.

A number of the in-game items in the Shop can also be obtained by playing the game, but a few items are exclusive to the Shop: the Bag Upgrade, the Pokémon Storage Upgrade, and the Premium Raid Pass. The Shop also occasionally features limited-time "Box" deals (e.g., a Special Box) that include more than one kind of item.

==Music==
Some of the music in Pokémon GO was composed by [[Junichi Masuda]]. The music as well as the sound effects can be turned off in the [[options#Pokémon GO|settings]] of the app.

==Compatibility==
Pokémon GO requires an internet connection ({{wp|Wi-Fi}}, {{wp|3G}} or {{wp|4G}}) and GPS/location services. According to the official support site, the game can be played on:<ref>[https://support.pokemongo.nianticlabs.com/hc/en-us/articles/221958248-Supported-devices Supported devices – Pokémon GO]</ref>
* Android devices: {{wp|Android KitKat|Android 4.4}}+ ({{wp|Rooting (Android OS)|rooted}} devices are not supported), preferred resolution of 720×1280 pixels (not optimized for tablet)
* iOS devices: {{wp|iPhone 5}} and newer, {{wp|iOS 8}} and newer ({{wp|iOS jailbreaking|jailbroken}} devices are not supported)
** {{wp|Apple Watch}} support was added on December 22, 2016.

However, the game is also playable on some iOS and Android devices that are not officially supported.

==Connectivity==
Pokémon GO currently has no connectivity with other Pokémon games. However, [[Junichi Masuda]] has stated that the developers plan to add connectivity with the [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|next entry]] in the [[core series]] Pokémon games.<ref>[https://youtu.be/qqbsdqjgj-k?t=29m16s Pokémon GO - Demonstration - Nintendo E3 2016 (YouTube)]</ref><ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20160715175300/http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/news-from-the-pokemon-go-announcement/ News From the Pokémon GO Announcement - Pokemon.com (archived July 15, 2016)]</ref>

==Partnerships==
{{incomplete|section|Partnerships in Japan, Big Heritage partnership}}
Due to the popularity of Pokémon GO, the game has partnered with several other companies to offer special promotions. These partnerships often involve sponsored locations, wherein stores affiliated with the partner company become [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s; sponsored locations do not appear in the game for players under the age of 13.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Starbucks}} in the United States. Starting December 8, 2016, 7,800 company-operated Starbucks stores in the United States have been made into PokéStops and Gyms. Additionally, Starbucks is selling a special-edition Pokémon GO Frappuccino as part of this partnership; the Pokémon GO Frappuccino starts with a Vanilla Bean {{wp|Frappuccino}} blended beverage and raspberry syrup blended with freeze-dried whole blackberries and topped with whipped cream.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Sprint Corporation|Sprint}} in the United States. Starting December 7, 2016, 10,500 Sprint, {{wp|Boost Mobile}}, and Sprint at {{wp|RadioShack|Radioshack}} stores in the United States are becoming PokéStops and Gyms. Sprint locations also feature in-store charging stations to allow Pokémon GO players to charge their devices.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Jio|Reliance Jio Infocomm}} (which operates under the name Jio) in India. Starting December 13, 2016, nearly 3,000 Jio stores (thousands of {{wp|Reliance Digital}} stores according to Jio's press release) and select partner premises in India will become PokéStops or Gyms in the Pokémon GO, as well as offering charging stations for players. On Jio's social messaging app, JioChat, Pokémon players have access to an exclusive Pokémon GO channel to allow them to collaborate and be part of a community of players with daily tips, contests, clues, and special events. During Jio's "Happy New Year" offer, Jio {{wp|Subscriber identity module|SIM}} customers will be able to download and play Pokémon GO without incurring data charges, like any other apps and content, until March 31, 2017.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Unibail-Rodamco}} shopping malls across Europe. Starting on February 18, 2017 new PokéStops and Gyms across 58 shopping and destination centers in ten European countries were added. An average of a dozen new PokéStops and Gyms were added to public spaces, social hubs, and public art at each of the destination centers.

==Development==
The game was conceived by John Hanke after the development of Niantic's Ingress. It was decided that a game based on Pokémon would be a good choice, due to its focus on collecting the titular creatures. Hanke brought the idea to the Pokémon Company and talked with Mr. Isihara. Development began. Junichi Masuda worked with Niantic on the game's development.<ref>''Game Informer #81: Pokénomenon''</ref>

An Ingress Report released on September 10, 2015, the day of the game's announcement, stated that a closed beta would occur during Northern Hemisphere winter 2015 and that the game would be released in early 2016.<ref name="IngressReport">[https://youtu.be/HMsM1nzWiYw?t=2m22s INGRESS REPORT - Begin New Journey - Raw Feed September 10 2015]</ref> However, no beta testing occurred during 2015.<ref>[https://archive.is/0noAj Pokémon GO - Pokemon.com (archived February 7, 2016)]</ref><ref>[http://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2016/01/160108_at01.html 『Pokémon GO』のベータテストについて｜ポケットモンスターオフィシャルサイト]</ref>

Field tests were held in Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and the United States prior to the game's public release. Selected applicants were given the opportunity to test the game.
* Japan: held from March 29 to June 30, 2016, announced on March 3, 2016<ref>[https://archive.is/5731W Pokémon GO - Pokemon.com (archived March 3, 2016)]</ref><ref>[https://www.nianticlabs.com/blog/pokemon-fieldtest/ Pokémon GO field testing will begin in Japan - Niantic, Inc.]</ref>

A session at the {{wp|Game Developers Conference}} featuring the game [[n:Pokémon GO to be discussed at Game Developers Conference|was intended to be held]] by Niantic CEO John Hanke on March 14, 2016, but was later cancelled due to Niantic preparing the game for beta testing and launch.<ref>[http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2016/03/03/pokemon-go-gdc-presentation-canceled.aspx Pokémon Go GDC Presentation Canceled - www.GameInformer.com]</ref>

Unlike previous Pokémon games for mobile devices, Pokémon GO was released on a staggered schedule, releasing initially to only to a few select countries. After its initial release on July 6, 2016, additional releases [[n:Niantic puts Pokémon GO's international rollout on hold|were put on hold]] due to server issues, but resumed on July 13, 2016, with the app's [[n:Pokémon GO now available in Germany|release in Germany]]. France was supposed to receive the app alongside other European countries, but the official release in the country was postponed due to the {{wp|2016 Nice attack}}.<ref>[http://fr.ign.com/pokemon-go-iphone/15934/news/pokemon-go-the-pokemon-company-confirme-le-report-francais Pokémon GO : The Pokémon Company confirme le report français]</ref>

{{StrategyWiki}}
'''Pokémon GO''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|Pokémon GO|ポケモン　ゴー}}}}''') is a multiplayer, location-based, {{wp|augmented reality}} Pokémon game for {{wp|iOS}} and {{wp|Android (operating system)|Android}}. The game results from a collaboration between [[The Pokémon Company]], [[Nintendo]], and [[Niantic]], Inc., and is {{wp|Freemium|free to download}} with in-app purchases. It was released in most markets with access to the iOS App Store or Google Play Store on a staggered schedule starting on July 6, 2016.

The game was announced at a press conference in Japan on September 10, 2015. Field tests for Pokémon GO were held from March 29, 2016 through June 30, 2016.

The game is compatible with the [[Pokémon GO Plus]], a {{wp|Bluetooth}} device that allows players to enjoy elements of the game without looking at their phone. Compatibility with the {{wp|Apple Watch}} was added in an update on December 22, 2016.

==Blurb==
Venusaur, Charizard, Blastoise, Pikachu, and many other Pokémon have been discovered on planet Earth!

Now’s your chance to discover and capture the Pokémon all around you—so get your shoes on, step outside, and explore the world. You’ll join one of three teams and battle for the prestige and ownership of Gyms with your Pokémon at your side.

Pokémon are out there, and you need to find them. As you walk around a neighborhood, your smartphone will vibrate when there’s a Pokémon nearby. Take aim and throw a Poké Ball… You’ll have to stay alert, or it might get away!

Search far and wide for Pokémon and items

Certain Pokémon appear near their native environment—look for Water-type Pokémon by lakes and oceans. Visit PokéStops, found at interesting places like museums, art installations, historical markers, and monuments, to stock up on Poké Balls and helpful items.

Catching, hatching, evolving, and more

As you level up, you’ll be able to catch more-powerful Pokémon to complete your Pokédex. You can add to your collection by hatching Pokémon Eggs based on the distances you walk. Help your Pokémon evolve by catching many of the same kind.

Take on Gym battles and defend your Gym

As your Charmander evolves to Charmeleon and then Charizard, you can battle together to defeat a Gym and assign your Pokémon to defend it against all comers.

It’s time to get moving—your real-life adventures await!

Note: This app is free-to-play and is optimized for smartphones, not tablets.

==Gameplay==
[[File:GO Guide Catch 3.png|thumb|200px|Encountering a wild Rattata, with AR mode disabled (Prior to 0.55.0 version)]]
In the game, [[wild Pokémon]] appear on a map of the real world, with the player moving in the game by travelling in the real world. When a Pokémon is nearby, the player's phone vibrates. The player can encounter a nearby Pokémon by tapping it in the Map View. Different kinds of Pokémon will appear in different environments; for example, {{type|Water}} Pokémon are more common near water. The player is assisted by [[Professor Willow]] throughout the game. Players can login using a [[Pokémon Trainer Club]] account or a Google account.

In a wild encounter, the player attempts to capture a wild Pokémon in a [[Poké Ball]] before it runs away. Unlike in the [[core series]] games, these encounters do not involve battle. At higher levels, the player can use [[Razz Berry|Razz Berries]] to make wild Pokémon easier to catch or use more powerful Poké Balls like {{ball|Great}}s and {{ball|Ultra}}. While holding a press on a Poké Ball, a ring will appear around the Pokémon. This ring shrinks over time; once it reaches its smallest size it immediately returns to full size and the cycle repeats. If the Poké Ball is thrown while the ring is very small, the capture is more likely to be successful.

The game can be played as an {{wp|augmented reality}} (AR) game, so that in wild encounters and Gym battles the Pokémon appear to be in the real world when looking at the smart device's screen. However, it is also possible to disable this functionality, which saves battery power and is necessary on some devices which do not support AR.

Catching and hatching Pokémon earns the player [[Candy]], which can be spent to [[evolution|evolve]] or [[Power Up]] Pokémon. Each evolutionary family has its own type of Candy, so in order to evolve a Pokémon the player needs to catch a number of Pokémon from that same evolutionary family. If a player wants to get rid of a Pokémon, they can transfer it to Professor Willow, who will permanently keep the Pokémon but give 1 Candy in return. Catching and hatching Pokémon also earns the player {{OBP|Stardust|GO}}, which also needs to be expended to [[Power Up]] Pokémon; unlike Candy, there is only one type of Stardust for all Pokémon.

There are two main types of locations in Pokémon GO: [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. PokéStops and Gyms exist at pre-defined real world locations, and the player must be within range of them in order to interact with them (although they can be inspected as long as they shown up in the Map View). Players can obtain items and {{pkmn|Egg}}s by visiting PokéStops, whereas players fight for control of Gyms.

Players can customize their appearance, such as clothing and accessories, which can be shown to other players. [[Pokémon Trainer]]s collect XP from performing various actions, such as catching Pokémon, which allows them to increase their Trainer [[level]]. Leveling up rewards the player with items, and some levels unlock features of the game. Wild Pokémon encountered by Trainers at higher levels are more likely to have higher CP. The maximum number of times an individual Pokémon can be [[Power Up|Powered Up]] increases with the Trainer's level.

[[PokéCoin]]s can be obtained in-game or via in-app purchases with real money. They can be traded for extra items and other enhancements.

===Available Pokémon===
Only Pokémon introduced in [[Generation I]] and {{gen|II}} are available in the game. Evolved Pokémon can be caught in the wild, but [[baby Pokémon]] cannot. Currently, all Generation I and II Pokémon, except {{p|Smeargle}}, {{p|Delibird}}, and {{pkmn2|Legendary}} and [[Mythical Pokémon]], can be obtained in the game.

On November 23, 2016, {{p|Ditto}} became available in the game (appearing disguised as {{p|Pidgey}}, {{p|Rattata}}, {{p|Zubat}}, or {{p|Magikarp}}).

On December 12, 2016, almost all Generation II [[baby Pokémon]] became available in the game, exclusively from {{pkmn|Eggs}} (specifically, {{p|Pichu}}, {{p|Cleffa}}, {{p|Igglybuff}}, {{p|Togepi}}, {{p|Smoochum}}, {{p|Elekid}}, and {{p|Magby}}). {{p|Togetic}} became available in the game exclusively by evolving Togepi.

On February 16, 2017, most remaining [[Generation II]] Pokémon became available in the wild. [[Generation I]] Pokémon that have [[Generation II]] [[List of Pokémon with cross-generational evolutions|cross-generational evolutions]] can now evolve into those evolutions. {{p|Togetic}} can now appear in the wild. Wild {{p|Ditto}} can appear disguised as {{p|Hoothoot}}, {{p|Sentret}}, and {{p|Yanma}} as well.

On March 22, 2017, {{Shiny}} {{p|Magikarp}} became available in the wild; Shiny {{p|Gyarados}} is also available by evolving Shiny Magikarp.

====Availability====
The player may choose from the three [[Kanto]] [[starter Pokémon]] at the beginning of the game: {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, or {{p|Squirtle}}. If the player walks away from the starter Pokémon four times, {{p|Pikachu}} will also appear as a possible starter Pokémon. These Pokémon may also be found in the wild later on.

Which Pokémon {{p|Eevee}} evolves into is normally random. However, if Eevee is nicknamed after one of the [[Eevee brothers]] before evolving, it will evolve into their respective evolution: Sparky for {{p|Jolteon}}, Rainer for {{p|Vaporeon}}, and Pyro for {{p|Flareon}}.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/4t0cpo/psa_how_to_force_your_eevee_to_evolve_into_your/?st=iqo9zize&sh=66e8bdd1</ref> If Eevee is named after two of the [[Kimono Girl]]s' anime names, it will evolve into their respective evolution: Sakura for {{p|Espeon}} and Tamao for {{p|Umbreon}}. This can only be done once per evolution.

{{p|Farfetch'd}}, {{p|Kangaskhan}}, {{p|Mr. Mime}}, {{p|Tauros}}, and {{p|Heracross}} appear to be region-exclusive, currently only being found in Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, and Central/South America respectively. {{p|Corsola}} is also a region-exclusive, appearing between {{wp|latitude}} 26° S and 31° N.

===Locations===
There are two main types of locations in Pokémon GO: [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. PokéStops and Gyms exist at pre-defined real world locations, and the player must be within range of them in order to interact with them (although they can be inspected as long as they shown up in the Map View).

The locations of PokéStops and Gyms are based on a selection of portals from the Niantic game {{wp|Ingress (video game)|Ingress}}. Until 2015, Ingress players could submit proposals for portals which subsequently had to be approved by Niantic.

PokéStops allow players to obtain items and Eggs by spinning the Photo Disc. At Gyms, players can battle to weaken those belonging to opposing teams or strengthen those belonging to their own team; a player can earn {{OBP|Stardust|GO}} and [[PokéCoin]]s by holding onto Gyms. PokéStops are much more common than Gyms.

Depending on where a player lives, PokéStops and Gyms may be very common or very sparse, tending to be more common in urban areas due to a higher population density resulting in more Ingress players in those areas. If there are no nearby PokéStops, the player can only obtain Poké Balls by leveling up or purchasing them with PokéCoins; if there are no nearby Gyms, the player can only obtain PokéCoins by purchasing them with real currency.

===Teams===
[[File:GO Professors Assistants.png|300px|thumb|The Team Leaders, Candela, Blanche and Spark.]]
After the player reaches level 5, they can choose a team by tapping a Gym. There are three teams: Team Instinct (yellow) whose leader is Spark, Team Mystic (blue) whose leader is Blanche, and Team Valor (red) whose leader is Candela. A Gym can only be controlled by one team at a time. If a Gym is controlled by the player's team, they can train at it and add one of their own Pokémon to defend it. If a Gym is controlled by a rival team, the player can battle it to decrease its Prestige; when a Gym's Prestige reaches zero, any nearby player can claim it for their own team.

Pokémon Appraisal, added in version 0.35.0 (labelled version 1.5.0 on the iOS App Store), has the chosen Team's leader detail a Pokémon's stats much like a [[stats judge]] in the core series. They describe how good the Pokémon would be in a battle, which of its three stats is its highest, and how good its stats are overall. They will also note if the Pokémon's height or weight is particularly far from the average listed in the Pokédex.

===PokéCoins===
[[File:PokéCoin.png|thumb|100px|A PokéCoin]]
{{main|PokéCoin}}
PokéCoins are the in-app currency used in Pokémon GO. There are two ways of obtaining PokéCoins: the {{OBP|Gym|GO}} Defender bonus or by purchasing them with real money.

To obtain the Defender bonus, the player must open the Shop menu and tap the shield icon while they have a Pokémon in at least one Gym. They will earn {{OBP|Stardust|GO}} and 10 PokéCoins for each Gym they currently hold (up to a maximum of 10 Defenders per bonus; including extra Stardust and 100 Pokécoins), being able to obtain this bonus once every 21 hours.

===Experience===
{{main|Experience#Pokémon GO|Experience → Pokémon GO}}
In Pokémon GO, the player earns experience (abbreviated XP), rather than the Pokémon. As the player gains experience they gain levels. Leveling up awards the player with items, and certain levels unlock particular items. After reaching level 5, the player can choose a team, which allows them to use {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. As the player's level increases, their Pokémon are able to achieve a higher Combat Power as the player powers them up.

===Eggs===
[[File:GO Egg 2 km.png|thumb|150px|A 2 km egg in Pokémon GO (originally used for Eggs of all distances)]]
{{main|Pokémon Egg#Pokémon GO|Pokémon Egg → Pokémon GO}}
The player can obtain Eggs at [[PokéStop]]s. An Egg will hatch after traveling a certain distance while the Egg is in an incubator. Three Egg distances are possible: 2 km, 5 km, and 10 km. Each species has a set Egg distance and can only hatch from Eggs with this distance.
{{-}}
===Buddy===
[[File:Buddy Pokémon GO.png|thumb|150px|A Buddy Pokémon]]
{{main|Buddy Pokémon}}
By assigning a Buddy Pokémon, the player can receive additional Candies for that species of Pokémon as they walk. Depending on the species, the Buddy Pokémon will find 1 Candy every 1 km, 3 km or 5 km walked. The player can only have a single Buddy Pokémon at once.

===Medals===
{{main|Medal#Pokémon GO|Medal → Pokémon GO}}
The game has challenges that award [[Medal#Pokémon GO|medals]] upon completion. Medals can be viewed from a player's profile.

===Daily bonuses===
Daily bonuses were added to Pokémon GO in version 0.45.0 (labelled 1.15.0 on the {{wp|App Store (iOS)|iOS App Store}}), which was released on November 7, 2016. Daily bonuses give the player extra rewards if they perform certain actions each day (local time).

The first Pokémon the player catches each day earn the player a bonus 500 [[experience|XP]] and 600 {{OBP|Stardust|GO}}. If the player catches a Pokémon every day for 7 days in a row, they will earn a bonus of 2500 XP and 3000 Stardust.

The first [[PokéStop]] the player searches each day earn the player a bonus 500 [[experience|XP]] and extra items. If the player searches PokéStops every day for 7 days in a row, they will earn a bonus of 2500 XP and even more items. The 7-day streak bonus is more likely to give the player Evolution items such as the [[King's Rock]].

==Compatibility==
Pokémon GO requires an internet connection ({{wp|Wi-Fi}}, {{wp|3G}} or {{wp|4G}}) and GPS/location services. According to the official support site, the game can be played on:<ref>[https://support.pokemongo.nianticlabs.com/hc/en-us/articles/221958248-Supported-devices Supported devices – Pokémon GO]</ref>
* Android devices: {{wp|Android KitKat|Android 4.4}}+ ({{wp|Rooting (Android OS)|rooted}} devices are not supported), preferred resolution of 720×1280 pixels (not optimized for tablet)

However, the game is also playable on some iOS and Android devices that are not officially supported.

==Connectivity==
Pokémon GO currently has no connectivity with other Pokémon games. However, [[Junichi Masuda]] has stated that the developers plan to add connectivity with the [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|next entry]] in the [[core series]] Pokémon games.<ref>[https://youtu.be/qqbsdqjgj-k?t=29m16s Pokémon GO - Demonstration - Nintendo E3 2016 (YouTube)]</ref><ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20160715175300/http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/news-from-the-pokemon-go-announcement/ News From the Pokémon GO Announcement - Pokemon.com (archived July 15, 2016)]</ref>

==Partnerships==
{{incomplete|section|Partnerships in Japan}}
Due to the popularity of Pokémon GO, the game has partnered with several other companies to offer special promotions. These partnerships often involve sponsored locations, wherein stores affiliated with the partner company become [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s; sponsored locations do not appear in the game for players under the age of 13.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Starbucks}} in the United States. Starting December 8, 2016, 7,800 company-operated Starbucks stores in the United States have been made into PokéStops and Gyms. Additionally, Starbucks is selling a special-edition Pokémon GO Frappuccino as part of this partnership; the Pokémon GO Frappuccino starts with a Vanilla Bean {{wp|Frappuccino}} blended beverage and raspberry syrup blended with freeze-dried whole blackberries and topped with whipped cream.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Sprint Corporation|Sprint}} in the United States. Starting December 7, 2016, 10,500 Sprint, {{wp|Boost Mobile}}, and Sprint at {{wp|RadioShack|Radioshack}} stores in the United States are becoming PokéStops and Gyms. Sprint locations also feature in-store charging stations to allow Pokémon GO players to charge their devices.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Jio|Reliance Jio Infocomm}} (which operates under the name Jio) in India. Starting December 13, 2016, nearly 3,000 Jio stores (thousands of {{wp|Reliance Digital}} stores according to Jio's press release) and select partner premises in India will become PokéStops or Gyms in the Pokémon GO, as well as offering charging stations for players. On Jio's social messaging app, JioChat, Pokémon players have access to an exclusive Pokémon GO channel to allow them to collaborate and be part of a community of players with daily tips, contests, clues, and special events. During Jio's "Happy New Year" offer, Jio {{wp|Subscriber identity module|SIM}} customers will be able to download and play Pokémon GO without incurring data charges, like any other apps and content, until March 31, 2017.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Unibail-Rodamco}} shopping malls across Europe. Starting on February 18, 2017 new PokéStops and Gyms across 58 shopping and destination centers in ten European countries were added. An average of a dozen new PokéStops and Gyms were added to public spaces, social hubs, and public art at each of the destination centers.

==Development==
The game was conceived by John Hanke after the development of Niantic's Ingress. It was decided that a game based on Pokémon would be a good choice, due to its focus on collecting the titular creatures. Hanke brought the idea to the Pokémon Company and talked with Mr. Isihara. Development began. Junichi Masuda worked with Niantic on the game's development.<ref>''Game Informer #81: Pokénomenon''</ref>

An Ingress Report released on September 10, 2015, the day of the game's announcement, stated that a closed beta would occur during Northern Hemisphere winter 2015 and that the game would be released in early 2016.<ref name="IngressReport">[https://youtu.be/HMsM1nzWiYw?t=2m22s INGRESS REPORT - Begin New Journey - Raw Feed September 10 2015]</ref> However, no beta testing occurred during 2015.<ref>[https://archive.is/0noAj Pokémon GO - Pokemon.com (archived February 7, 2016)]</ref><ref>[http://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2016/01/160108_at01.html 『Pokémon GO』のベータテストについて｜ポケットモンスターオフィシャルサイト]</ref>

Field tests were held in Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and the United States prior to the game's public release. Selected applicants were given the opportunity to test the game.
* Japan: held from March 29 to June 30, 2016, announced on March 3, 2016<ref>[https://archive.is/5731W Pokémon GO - Pokemon.com (archived March 3, 2016)]</ref><ref>[https://www.nianticlabs.com/blog/pokemon-fieldtest/ Pokémon GO field testing will begin in Japan - Niantic, Inc.]</ref>
* Australia and New Zealand: held from April 25 to June 30, 2016, announced on April 7, 2016<ref>[https://www.nianticlabs.com/blog/pokemon-fieldtest-au-nz/ Pokémon GO field testing expands to Australia and New Zealand - Niantic, Inc.]</ref>

A session at the {{wp|Game Developers Conference}} featuring the game [[n:Pokémon GO to be discussed at Game Developers Conference|was intended to be held]] by Niantic CEO John Hanke on March 14, 2016, but was later cancelled due to Niantic preparing the game for beta testing and launch.<ref>[http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2016/03/03/pokemon-go-gdc-presentation-canceled.aspx Pokémon Go GDC Presentation Canceled - www.GameInformer.com]</ref>

After its initial release on July 6, 2016, additional releases [[n:Niantic puts Pokémon GO's international rollout on hold|were put on hold]] due to server issues, but resumed on July 13, 2016, with the app's [[n:Pokémon GO now available in Germany|release in Germany]].

Rmkane: /* Loading screens */ New loading screen. Higher resolution.

== Generation confirmed? ==

The article's infobox states that the game is part of Generation VI. Has this actually been confirmed? I would have thought now that it's more likely this game will be part of Generation VII. If the information is not confirmed, can we just remove it? [[User:Kidburla|Kidburla]] ([[User talk:Kidburla|talk]]) 21:17, 11 March 2016 (UTC)

== 2015/2016 confusion ==
"....held by Niantic CEO John Hanke on March 14, 2015, but was later cancelled..."

Isn't "2015" supposed to be 2016? [[User:Chaossy|Chaossy]] ([[User talk:Chaossy|talk]]) 20:22, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
: Slightly late, but you are correct. Hopefully someone should fix it soon with more eyes on the page. --[[User:Super goku|Super goku]] ([[User talk:Super goku|talk]]) 16:01, 6 July 2016 (UTC)

== Pokémon Go Plus ==

This is confirmed to be $34.99 and may be released in late July (they will try for that). [[User:Kurt22|Kurt22]] ([[User talk:Kurt22|talk]]) 22:25, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

== Coin Prize Euros ==

The coin prizes are:

€ 0,99 for 100
€ 4,99 for 550
€ 9,99 for 1200
€ 19,99 for 2500
€ 39,99 for 5200
€ 99,99 for 14500

[[User:Bigtukker|Bigtukker]] ([[User talk:Bigtukker|talk]]) 15:57, 6 July 2016 (UTC)

== Size and weight ==

Unlike core series, it's not fixed. Pokémon can be lighter/heavier and/or smaller/taller than the usual norm. For example, I have seen a picture of 0.65m/4.8kg Raticate (marked with XS for weight). [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 12:55, 7 July 2016 (UTC)

== Pikachu can be caught as starter Pokémon ==
As seen in this picture a player can get pikachu by walking away from the other three https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Cm3wRieW8AA0cgM.jpg:large [[User:Veilor|Veilor]] ([[User talk:Veilor|talk]]) 22:39, 8 July 2016 (UTC)

== Eeveelutions ==

The article currently says that eevee evolves based on its moves but that doesn't seem to be the case based on the data being compiled [https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/4s135q/lets_test_how_the_eeveelution_system_works/ here] {{unsigned|Spexile}}
:I read the post and thought I maybe understood what it wanted, but then I looked at the data spreadsheet and it pretty much stopped making all sense to me... The only thing I can understand from it is that, yes, it does appear Eevee's evolution criteria is not just the move it knows. Beyond that, I don't know it'll even be ''possible'' to draw any conclusions from that spreadsheet. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 23:24, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

== Regarding Available Pokemon and Items ==

Item list should be updated to include the disposable incubators. This user has found them at PokeStops with capability to incubate up to 3 eggs in total, one at a time. Possibility of stronger incubators?

Also, current PokeDex is listing user's owned pokemon out of available 250. While there have been little to no reports on Generation II Pokemon being seen or caught, it should be noted that the game is listing them as a possibility, likely at higher trainer levels. {{unsigned|Carson3000}}
:You may want to double-check, are you really looking in the Pokedex (like [https://support.pokemongo.nianticlabs.com/hc/en-us/articles/221958028-Viewing-the-Pok%C3%A9dex here]) when you see something like "X/250", or are you actually looking at just the Pokemon collection? [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 06:13, 11 July 2016 (UTC)
:(edit conflict; sorry) I don't think the 250 capacity is (necessarily) any indication of Gen 2 Pokemon in the works. It's much more plausible, given the game mechanics, that the developers wanted to give people enough capacity to own more than one of each species. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 06:15, 11 July 2016 (UTC)
::You can also purchase a Pokémon Storage Upgrade for 200 PokéCoins, so I really don't think this is a good argument. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 07:47, 11 July 2016 (UTC)

== Eevee evolution ==

People suggest that it depends on its special move; Body Slam is Jolteon; Swift is Vaporeon and Dig is Flareon. Unfortunately, I cannot test that. [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 08:19, 11 July 2016 (UTC)
:See [[#Eeveelutions]] above. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 08:25, 11 July 2016 (UTC)

== Team Descriptions ==

I would if I could... but the descriptions of each team/faction should be listed under the [[Pokémon GO#Teams]] header.

Here they are:

;Instinct (Yellow)

''"Hey! The name's Spark -- the leader of Team Instinct. Pokemon are creatures with excellent intuition. I bet the secret to their intuition is related to how they're hatched. Come and join my team! You never lose when you trust your instincts!"''

;Mystic (Blue)

''"I am Blanche, leader of Team Mystic. The wisdom of Pokemon is immeasurably deep. I am researching why it is that they evolve. With our calm analysis of every situation, we can't lose!"''

;Valor (Red)

''"I'm Candela -- Team Valor's leader! Pokemon are stronger than humans, and they're warmhearted, too! I'm researching ways to enhance Pokemon's natural power in the pursuit of true strength. There's no doubt that the Pokemon our team have trained at the strongest in battle! Are you ready?"''

- Thanks, [[User:Rmkane|Rmkane]] ([[User talk:Rmkane|talk]]) 15:32, 11 July 2016 (UTC)
:added!--[[User:PannenkoekenNL|PannenkoekenNL]] ([[User talk:PannenkoekenNL|talk]]) 20:06, 11 July 2016 (UTC)

In the opening description about the teams, I think it would be good to mention that they are Professor Willow's research teams, each specializing in a certain area of Pokemon study. Usually, "team" in Pokemon refers to an organization/gang, so I feel it's something worth explaining for clarification. --[[User:Shinobi|Shinobi]] ([[User talk:Shinobi|talk]]) 03:56, 17 July 2016 (UTC)

== Add pictures of items ==
Could someone add the missing pictures of items, I don't have the permissions to do so. They can be found here: https://imgur.com/a/XNJOA --[[User:PannenkoekenNL|PannenkoekenNL]] ([[User talk:PannenkoekenNL|talk]]) 07:56, 12 July 2016 (UTC)

== Official Glossary Images ==

The official [https://support.pokemongo.nianticlabs.com/hc/en-us/articles/222049307-Glossary Pokémon Go glossary] has some images that are missing: http://imgur.com/a/bT3Cs Although, some of the images are not transparent... I don't know why, but wouldn't the official site have better images?

-- [[User:Rmkane|Rmkane]] ([[User talk:Rmkane|talk]]) 14:25, 12 July 2016 (UTC)

== Combat Point calculation ==

In regards to combat points, or CP, [http://pokestomped.com/2016/07/11/on-pokemon-evolution-and-powerup/ research] and a [http://pokestomped.com/2016/07/11/on-pokemon-evolution-and-powerup/#comment-3 theory I'm developing] will allow us to start quantifying the game much better. We should soon have modifiers for each Pokémon in the game, but we will likely have to do our own research, which will be difficult since randomness is implemented in the calculations. I don't think I can gather much data with my location, but I'd love to crunch numbers if anyone else wants to do a bunch of powerups on each species. Let me know what you guys think. {{unsigned|PlatypusVenom}}

== Missing Key Item Images ==

== NA release date? ==

I don't get this, was Pokémon GO release in USA at the same time as Canada or is it not released there at all? Or was it released in USA at the 6 July and later in Canada? This is confusing because it said USA only on the page at first but then the USA only was removed. Was that because it was released in Canada or what? --[[User:Raltseye|Raltseye]] [[User talk:Raltseye|prata med mej]] 13:17, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
:For consistency with other pages, the infobox lists the date of first availability within each region. The detailed, country-by-country breakdown is better served by prose than by the infobox. --[[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] ([[User talk:Abcboy|talk]]) 13:58, 13 July 2016 (UTC)

== Mystic Emblem is Wrong ==

The colors and the bottom of the hexagon are incorrect. Along with other things such as the curves of the feathers.

Here is a high quality version that uses the correct colors and hexagon: http://imgur.com/QCo3SFa

It is exported at 1,200 x 1,200 just like the other team's emblems. If you require the SVG, just leave a message on my [[User talk:Rmkane|talk page]].

== Cached Images ==

Since I cannot edit the main article, can someone change the size of the thumbnails of the team emblems? Right now, they are cached (on the CDN server) as the out-of date; [http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/thumb/f/f4/Team_Mystic_emblem.png/50px-Team_Mystic_emblem.png fan-art versions at 50px]. They are an eyesore, and I think that a more standard resolution of 48px or 64px would be more appropriate.

-- Thanks, [[User:Rmkane|Rmkane]] ([[User talk:Rmkane|talk]]) 14:55, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
-- [[User:Rmkane|Rmkane]] ([[User talk:Rmkane|talk]]) 14:56, 14 July 2016 (UTC)

Can someone please update the cached images for the teams? The fan-art logos should not be appearing anymore. Updating the size of the images should create a new cached thumbnail. Thanks, [[User:Rmkane|Rmkane]] ([[User talk:Rmkane|talk]]) 18:21, 17 July 2016 (UTC)

Well, I have tried four different browsers, and they are still using the incorrect thumbnail. This is not a browser cache issue. The CDN does not know that the image has been updated.

Fixed table, made thumbnail discrepancy more apparent. -- [[User:Rmkane|Rmkane]] ([[User talk:Rmkane|talk]]) 15:45, 18 July 2016 (UTC)
:I can't really tell any difference between the thumbnails you have in the table above; it's hardly an eyesore. It'll be fine for about a month until it naturally ages out.

== Gaining Experience ==
You can gain experience from visiting a pokestop, even if your bag is full. You appear to gain 50xp anytime you visit one and your bag is full.

I think that should be mentioned more explicitly in the table listing the ways of gaining xp, most likely attached to the 3 items or less case.

"Visit a PokéStop (3 items or less) 50" --> change to something like --> "Visit a PokéStop (3 items or less, including full bag) 50"

Oh wait it may actually be possible to earn more than 50xp when spinning a poke stop if your bag is full. I just spun one and it appeared to give me 150xp. We may need to have people do some experimenting to figure out what exactly the behavior is. [[User:Ectropy|Ectropy]] ([[User talk:Ectropy|talk]]) 12:15, 15 July 2016 (UTC)

:The Pokemon.com sites in those languages specified a release date of 2016, while the official GO site and the other articles referenced only state "coming soon".

== Please add the Player's Guide at the top of the page ==
This page, which describes the general setup of Pokémon GO, and the [[Appendix:Pokémon GO Player's Guide|Pokémon GO Player's Guide]] serve different purposes. Since, especially as this game is new, not all game mechanics are well explained by Niantic in any central place, much less in the game itself (but said mechanics don't really belong on this page), the player's guide should really be featured at the top of the page, probably as a disambiguation style remark. E.g. 'For specifics on how to play Pokémon GO, see the [[Appendix:Pokémon GO Player's Guide|Pokémon GO Player's Guide]]. The Player's Guide should also be linked (or one of its subsections linked) when discussion becomes too specific for this page. Such as, 'For more about how Gym prestige works, see (...)'.

== On game publishers and developers ==

I'm not quite sure if I ever understood this, or if it's just a fuzzy definition per se. In general, here's what I believe:
* The publisher is whoever ''releases'' the game, who manufactures it, ships it etc.
* The developer is whoever ''makes'' the game, who programs it, who makes up the game concept (?), who tests it etc.
As a rule of thumb, publishers' names/trademarks can typically be found somewhere on the box of physical games, that of developers in the title screen in-game (plus, there may be overlaps).
Now, apps aren't really shipped, so here, publishers are those listed as "developers" in the app stores (as crazy as it sounds). Developers are still who made the game, it's just that they are more likely also publishers.

That said, I trust Bulbapedia more than another billion article wiki (that lists Niantic as developer and The Pokémon Company as publisher) on that matter. So, could anyone clear that up for me? Cause from the app's title screens, I'd say developers are either Niantic+Pokémon, or Niantic+Pokémon+Nintendo+Creatures+Game Freak. (Also, I like how it's phrased in the opening paragraph.) [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 11:24, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
:Ok, seems to be tough. Well, could someone at least explain our current choice of publishers and/or developers? [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 12:31, 24 July 2016 (UTC)
::So, after discussion, the other billion article wiki now lists Niantic as both developer and publisher. I've changed the article accordingly, while still prominently stating that it's a collaboration in the opening paragraph. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 13:51, 28 July 2016 (UTC)

== Game availability ==

We may want a separate section in this article distinguishing 'Countries in which it is possible to download the game' (released) and 'Countries in which it is possible to play the game at all', which as it turns out Niantic seems to be able to turn off on a geographic basis.

Niantic does not allow playing the game at all in South Korea, with the exception of the city of Sokcho, on the northeastern tip of the country. (Source: http://www.cnn.com/2016/07/22/asia/south-korea-pokemon-sokcho/ ). What I don't know is if this means Niantic simply turns off the ability to log in if your GPS is reported in a geographically blocked area, or if "there just aren't any gyms or Pokéstops in 'blocked areas'", which is probably a distinction worth researching. Also, if it's true in South Korea, it's probably true in other places. [[User:Skybunny|Skybunny]] ([[User talk:Skybunny|talk]]) 16:46, 26 July 2016 (UTC)

== Error moves ==

Prevously I added to Trivia sections of various articles where Pokemon in Pokemon Go were able to learn moves they couldn't in the main series, it was all removed. Since 20th August, however, Niantic have removed these moves from thos Pokemon and given them moves that they can learn in the main series which seems to suggest they thought them a mistake.

== Release schedule ==

My edit to add in China to the release schedule was removed, so I want to provide my citation here. In his TechCrunch interview on September 13, John Hanke said they're still working on rolling out Pokemon Go at "India, South Asia, parts of Africa, China." Here's the VOD of that interview:

https://techcrunch.com/video/john-hanke-of-niantic-labs-has-pokemon-plans/57d86c3e1c689950401abaf5/

== Japanese names in the opening sentence ==

Should we maybe not do that for GO-related articles (and by extension, for anything that doesn't originate in Japan), move it to "In other languages" where all other languages are? I agree that for most things on here, Japanese names are more canon somehow than any other language (and may have been mistranslated or lost some connotation), so they somehow "deserve" such prominent placement, but when the original language ''is'' English and everything is basically translated '''to''' Japanese, I believe maybe we shouldn't emphasize their Japanese names in the same way.

:I read the post and thought I maybe understood what it wanted, but then I looked at the data spreadsheet and it pretty much stopped making all sense to me... The only thing I can understand from it is that, yes, it does appear Eevee's evolution criteria is not just the move it knows. Beyond that, I don't know it'll even be ''possible'' to draw any conclusions from that spreadsheet. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 23:24, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

== Regarding Available Pokemon and Items ==

Item list should be updated to include the disposable incubators. This user has found them at PokeStops with capability to incubate up to 3 eggs in total, one at a time. Possibility of stronger incubators?

Also, current PokeDex is listing user's owned pokemon out of available 250. While there have been little to no reports on Generation II Pokemon being seen or caught, it should be noted that the game is listing them as a possibility, likely at higher trainer levels. {{unsigned|Carson3000}}
:You may want to double-check, are you really looking in the Pokedex (like [https://support.pokemongo.nianticlabs.com/hc/en-us/articles/221958028-Viewing-the-Pok%C3%A9dex here]) when you see something like "X/250", or are you actually looking at just the Pokemon collection? [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 06:13, 11 July 2016 (UTC)
:(edit conflict; sorry) I don't think the 250 capacity is (necessarily) any indication of Gen 2 Pokemon in the works. It's much more plausible, given the game mechanics, that the developers wanted to give people enough capacity to own more than one of each species.

;Mystic (Blue)

''"I am Blanche, leader of Team Mystic. The wisdom of Pokemon is immeasurably deep. I am researching why it is that they evolve. With our calm analysis of every situation, we can't lose!"''

;Valor (Red)

''"I'm Candela -- Team Valor's leader! Pokemon are stronger than humans, and they're warmhearted, too! I'm researching ways to enhance Pokemon's natural power in the pursuit of true strength. There's no doubt that the Pokemon our team have trained at the strongest in battle! Are you ready?"''

In regards to combat points, or CP, [http://pokestomped.com/2016/07/11/on-pokemon-evolution-and-powerup/ research] and a [http://pokestomped.com/2016/07/11/on-pokemon-evolution-and-powerup/#comment-3 theory I'm developing] will allow us to start quantifying the game much better. We should soon have modifiers for each Pokémon in the game, but we will likely have to do our own research, which will be difficult since randomness is implemented in the calculations. I don't think I can gather much data with my location, but I'd love to crunch numbers if anyone else wants to do a bunch of powerups on each species. Let me know what you guys think. {{unsigned|PlatypusVenom}}

You can gain experience from visiting a pokestop, even if your bag is full. You appear to gain 50xp anytime you visit one and your bag is full.

I think that should be mentioned more explicitly in the table listing the ways of gaining xp, most likely attached to the 3 items or less case.

"Visit a PokéStop (3 items or less) 50" --> change to something like --> "Visit a PokéStop (3 items or less, including full bag) 50"

== Release dates, Europe ==

Why does this article say that Pokémon GO will come out in France and Russian in 2016 and rest of Europe soon? What is the difference between soon and in 2016? --[[User:Raltseye|Raltseye]] [[User talk:Raltseye|prata med mej]] 10:59, 15 July 2016 (UTC)
:The Pokemon.com sites in those languages specified a release date of 2016, while the official GO site and the other articles referenced only state "coming soon". The 2016 date is technically more specific than "soon", which is why it's noted for the relevant locations. --[[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] ([[User talk:Abcboy|talk]]) 11:41, 15 July 2016 (UTC)

== Please add the Player's Guide at the top of the page ==
This page, which describes the general setup of Pokémon GO, and the [[Appendix:Pokémon GO Player's Guide|Pokémon GO Player's Guide]] serve different purposes. Since, especially as this game is new, not all game mechanics are well explained by Niantic in any central place, much less in the game itself (but said mechanics don't really belong on this page), the player's guide should really be featured at the top of the page, probably as a disambiguation style remark. E.g. 'For specifics on how to play Pokémon GO, see the [[Appendix:Pokémon GO Player's Guide|Pokémon GO Player's Guide]]. The Player's Guide should also be linked (or one of its subsections linked) when discussion becomes too specific for this page. Such as, 'For more about how Gym prestige works, see (...)'.

Thanks! [[User:Skybunny|Skybunny]] ([[User talk:Skybunny|talk]]) 17:16, 15 July 2016 (UTC)
:We don't typically link to our walkthroughs from a game's main page. Doing so on this page would mean we'd have to do it on every other game's page, too. Which might not be a bad thing, but it would require {{bp|Editorial Board}} approval... [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 15:50, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
::We do link them in the "See also" section (as we do on this article), but since you seem to not have noticed it, maybe it's not prominent enough... However, for Pokémon GO, the guide is currently linked in the sitenotice, which should help people find it if they are looking for it. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 17:00, 16 July 2016 (UTC)
::: Yeah, I definitely see your point, and I guess that's fair. What I was thinking of is an italicized note (that come to think of it, would be on all general game pages, yes), like the one in [[Template:PokémonPrevNextHead]]:

::: <code>For specifics of the gameplay of \{\{PAGENAME\}\}, see the [[Appendix:{{{PAGENAME}}} Player's Guide]].</code>

::: I'm not really strongly wedded to the idea, but if you think it's a good idea to have, maybe it ''is'' worth pushing up the chain. Best! [[User:Skybunny|Skybunny]] ([[User talk:Skybunny|talk]]) 19:32, 16 July 2016 (UTC)

== On game publishers and developers ==

I'm not quite sure if I ever understood this, or if it's just a fuzzy definition per se. In general, here's what I believe:
* The publisher is whoever ''releases'' the game, who manufactures it, ships it etc.
* The developer is whoever ''makes'' the game, who programs it, who makes up the game concept (?), who tests it etc.
As a rule of thumb, publishers' names/trademarks can typically be found somewhere on the box of physical games, that of developers in the title screen in-game (plus, there may be overlaps).
Now, apps aren't really shipped, so here, publishers are those listed as "developers" in the app stores (as crazy as it sounds). Developers are still who made the game, it's just that they are more likely also publishers.

That said, I trust Bulbapedia more than another billion article wiki (that lists Niantic as developer and The Pokémon Company as publisher) on that matter. So, could anyone clear that up for me? Cause from the app's title screens, I'd say developers are either Niantic+Pokémon, or Niantic+Pokémon+Nintendo+Creatures+Game Freak. (Also, I like how it's phrased in the opening paragraph.) [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 11:24, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
:Ok, seems to be tough. Well, could someone at least explain our current choice of publishers and/or developers? [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 12:31, 24 July 2016 (UTC)
::So, after discussion, the other billion article wiki now lists Niantic as both developer and publisher. I've changed the article accordingly, while still prominently stating that it's a collaboration in the opening paragraph. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 13:51, 28 July 2016 (UTC)

== Game availability ==

We may want a separate section in this article distinguishing 'Countries in which it is possible to download the game' (released) and 'Countries in which it is possible to play the game at all', which as it turns out Niantic seems to be able to turn off on a geographic basis.

Niantic does not allow playing the game at all in South Korea, with the exception of the city of Sokcho, on the northeastern tip of the country. (Source: http://www.cnn.com/2016/07/22/asia/south-korea-pokemon-sokcho/ ). What I don't know is if this means Niantic simply turns off the ability to log in if your GPS is reported in a geographically blocked area, or if "there just aren't any gyms or Pokéstops in 'blocked areas'", which is probably a distinction worth researching. Also, if it's true in South Korea, it's probably true in other places. [[User:Skybunny|Skybunny]] ([[User talk:Skybunny|talk]]) 16:46, 26 July 2016 (UTC)

== Error moves ==

Prevously I added to Trivia sections of various articles where Pokemon in Pokemon Go were able to learn moves they couldn't in the main series, it was all removed. Since 20th August, however, Niantic have removed these moves from thos Pokemon and given them moves that they can learn in the main series which seems to suggest they thought them a mistake. [[User:05308|Diamond]] [[Lanturn (Pokémon)|Lanturn]] [[User talk:05308|CodeName: 05308]] 09:28, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
:These have already been noted on the [[Game move errors]] page, and the relevant parts are noted in the GO sections of the respective Pokemon/move page. While it is interesting, I don't think that it really needs additional trivia mentions (staff seems to think so too). [[User:VioletPumpkin|VioletPumpkin]] ([[User talk:VioletPumpkin|talk]]) 14:08, 10 September 2016 (UTC)

== Release schedule ==

My edit to add in China to the release schedule was removed, so I want to provide my citation here. In his TechCrunch interview on September 13, John Hanke said they're still working on rolling out Pokemon Go at "India, South Asia, parts of Africa, China." Here's the VOD of that interview:

https://techcrunch.com/video/john-hanke-of-niantic-labs-has-pokemon-plans/57d86c3e1c689950401abaf5/

Time stamp is 4:00.

- [[User:Homu|Homu]] ([[User talk:Homu|talk]]) 21:41, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
:Thanks for the source. However, at 4:00 at least, he's just saying that they haven't rolled out there. I don't see that as a confirmation they will, especially as he continues to say how they're somewhat continuously in contact with governments right after.

== Pokémon Go India ==

Pokémon Go was released in India on December 14, 2016. Coin prices are ₹60 for 100, ₹300 for 550, ₹620 for 1200, ₹1200 for 2500, ₹2500 for 5200, and ₹6200 for 14500 Pokecoins. [[User:Budugoo|- Budugoo]] ([[User talk:Budugoo|talk]]) 08:14, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

== Pokémon GO in Russia ==

Since Pokémon GO wasn't released in 2016 but the site still states that it will be released last year, should we change it to upcoming or just leave it? --[[User:Raltseye|Raltseye]] [[User talk:Raltseye|prata med mej]] 19:07, 1 January 2017 (UTC)

== Ditto ==

Ditto can now be found disguised as Sentret. Recently caught a "Sentret" that revealed itself soon after. [[User:Epictwilight901|DarkShinyLugia]] ([[User talk:Epictwilight901|talk]]) 21:44, 25 February 2017 (UTC)
:That's already on the page. [[User:Glik|glik]][[User talk:Glik|glak]] 21:48, 25 February 2017 (UTC)

== Japanese names in the opening sentence ==

Should we maybe not do that for GO-related articles (and by extension, for anything that doesn't originate in Japan), move it to "In other languages" where all other languages are? I agree that for most things on here, Japanese names are more canon somehow than any other language (and may have been mistranslated or lost some connotation), so they somehow "deserve" such prominent placement, but when the original language ''is'' English and everything is basically translated '''to''' Japanese, I believe maybe we shouldn't emphasize their Japanese names in the same way.

== Loading screens ==

Niantic has made available, HD versions of the Halloween, Holiday, New Years, and Spring loading screens.

Sun & Moon TCG Series merchandise

2017-04-21T13:36:03Z

Rmkane: /* Burning Shadows Elite Trainer Box */ Added new section.

{{MerchPrevNext | prev=XY BREAK | next=None }}

With the start of every TCG Series, promotional merchandise for the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] is released. Beginning in November 2016, the release of [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], the start of [[Generation VII]], and the start of the Sun & Moon TCG Series allowed for a large number of promotional material and items to be made available to fans to purchase, collect, earn, and trade. The following is a chronological list of all TCG related merchandise made available during this Series of the card game.

==Alola Collection==
The first product of the Sun & Moon TCG Series is the '''Alola Collection'''. Released exclusively early to {{wp|Target}} stores November 13, 2016, it was made available elsewhere in North America on November 18, 2016, and November 23, 2016 in Europe, the same day as the [[Pokémon Sun & Moon]] video games in each region. The Alola Collection comes in 2 varieties, each featuring one of the two [[game mascot]] [[Legendary Pokémon]], {{p|Solgaleo}} and {{p|Lunala}}. Also featured are the three [[Alola]] [[starter Pokémon]] {{p|Rowlet}}, {{p|Litten}}, and {{p|Popplio}}.

The two regional pairs of promotional boxes differ in contents. All four iterations of this product contain a {{TCG|Jumbo card}} of either one of the two {{TCG|Pokémon-GX}} representing {{TCG ID|Sun & Moon|Solgaleo-GX|89}} and {{TCG ID|Sun & Moon|Lunala-GX|66}}, as well as one additional {{TCG|SM Black Star Promos|SM Black Star Promotional card}} for each of the three starter Pokémon and a code card for the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game Online]]. The North American versions however, include both a collector's pin and sculpted figure of either Solgaleo or Lunala, as well as 5 {{TCG|booster pack}}s. The three promotional cards differ between the Solgaleo and Lunala Alola Collections, with the Solgaleo Alola Collection containing Water-Web Holofoils of {{TCG|Sun & Moon}} {{TCG ID|Sun & Moon|Rowlet|9}} and {{TCG ID|Sun & Moon|Popplio|39}} and Black Star Promo {{TCG ID|SM Promo|Litten|2}} while the Lunala Alola Collection contains Water-Web Holofoil {{TCG ID|Sun & Moon|Litten|24}} and Black Star Promos {{TCG ID|SM Promo|Rowlet|1}} and {{TCG ID|SM Promo|Popplio|3}}. The European versions, on the other hand, contain no figure and only 3 booster packs, and replace the Legendary pin with a single pin of the three starters for both versions.

The '''Pokémon Trading Card Game''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンカードゲーム''', ''Pokémon Card Game''), often abbreviated as '''Pokémon TCG''' or just '''TCG''', is a tabletop game that involves collecting, trading and playing with Pokémon themed playing cards. It has its own set of rules but uses many motifs and ideas derived from the [[core series|video games]]. There are {{TCG|Pokémon|Pokémon card}}s for every [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|species]] of Pokémon, as well as {{TCG|Trainer card}}s featuring characters, items and other themes of the franchise (each with a different use) and {{TCG|Energy card}}s to power various actions. The artwork for the cards is provided by numerous artists.

The Pokémon TCG is a popular and steady aspect of the [[Pokémon]] franchise and is played and enjoyed by many fans. 21.5 billion Pokémon Trading Card Game cards have been produced worldwide. The game is part of the [[Play! Pokémon]] organized play along with the video game series and is also used in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game Online]].

==History==
[[File:JPCardback.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Original back of Japanese cards]]
The Pokémon Trading Card Game was originally published in Japan in 1996 by [[Media Factory]]. While other Pokémon card series existed in the past, this was the first card game based on the [[Pokémon]] series. The first Pokémon TCG sets took inspiration from the then released {{game2|Red|Green|Blue}} video games and initially featured illustrations by [[Ken Sugimori]], [[Mitsuhiro Arita]] and [[Keiji Kinebuchi]]. Soon new [[List of Pokémon Trading Card Game expansions|expansions]] began to release with many new artists contributing artwork. Three years later in 1999, Pokémon TCG was introduced in North America by [[Wizards of the Coast]] with the [[Base Set]], and worldwide soon after. In 2003, Wizards of the Coast's license was transferred to [[The Pokémon Company International]] by [[Nintendo]].

New features constantly appear in the Pokémon TCG. With the release of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} video games, the ''[[#Neo Series|Neo Series]]'' (the second series of [[List of Pokémon Trading Card Game expansions|expansions]]), started bringing several [[Generation II|new Pokémon]] into play. The {{TCG|Metal}} and {{TCG|Darkness}} {{TCG|type}}s of Pokémon cards were also introduced, along with {{TCG|Light Pokémon}} and {{TCG|Dark Pokémon}}. These were eventually discontinued to prevent confusion with the {{tcg|Darkness|Darkness type}}, but returned briefly with the release of the {{TCG|Neo Destiny}} expansion. The ''[[#e-Card Series|e-Card Series]]'' used [[Game Boy Advance]] add-on [[e-Reader]] to display [[Pokédex]] data about the Pokémon, play a minigame, play various tunes in a [[Melody Box]], or activate a special attack for that Pokémon. The ''[[#EX Series|EX Series]]'' was released next (the first series released by [[The Pokémon Company International]] instead of [[Wizards of the Coast]]), introducing the stronger {{TCG|Pokémon-ex}} into the game. The ''[[#Diamond & Pearl Series|Diamond & Pearl Series]]'' brought {{TCG|Pokémon LV.X}}, which were stronger, "Leveled-up" versions of final evolutions. Pokémon LV.X essentially replaced Pokémon-ex and continued until the {{TCG|Platinum: Arceus}} expansion. The ''[[#HeartGold & SoulSilver Series|HeartGold & SoulSilver Series]]'' featured two more types of card, {{TCG|Pokémon LEGEND}}, two-part cards with one Pokémon on each card, and {{TCG|Pokémon Prime}}, Pokémon with powerful and/or tactical attacks. With the release of the {{TCG|Black & White}} expansion, {{TCG|Poké-Power}}s ({{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Poké-POWER}}s and {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Poké-BODY}}s) were combined into one mechanic and renamed {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Ability|Abilities}}. ''Pokémon-ex'' returned as {{TCG|Pokémon-EX}} in the ''[[#Black & White Series|Black & White Series]]'' starting with the {{TCG|Next Destinies}} expansion. The {{TCG|Dragon}} Pokémon {{TCG|type}} was introduced in the {{TCG|Dragon Vault}} expansion of the ''Black & White Series''. ''{{DL|Pokémon-EX (TCG)|M Pokémon-EX}}'' were introduced in the {{TCG|XY}} expansion and introduce the [[Mega Evolution]] mechanic featured in the [[Pokémon X and Y]] video games to the TCG. The ''[[#XY Series|XY Series]]'' also introduced the {{TCG|Fairy}} {{TCG|type}} Pokémon. {{TCG|Pokémon-GX}} was introduced in the ''Sun & Moon Series''.

With the release of the ''[[#EX Series|EX Series]]'' worldwide, Pokémon TCG started publishing directly under [[Nintendo]] via its whole owned subsidiary [[The Pokémon Company International]], instead of [[Wizards of the Coast]]. In 2006, [[The Pokémon Company]] replaced Media Factory in distributing the cards in Japan starting with the ''[[#Diamond & Pearl Series|Diamond & Pearl Series]]''.

Two [[Game Boy Color]] video games based on the card game were created: {{ga|Pokémon Trading Card Game}} was released in 1998 and worldwide in 2000, and its sequel, [[Pokémon Card GB2: Here Comes Team GR!]], was released three years later. [[Pokémon Card Game: How to Play DS]] was released in Japan in 2011 and taught players how to play the Pokémon TCG. In 2011, the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game Online]] was introduced as a ''browser-based'' game but later became a downloadable game for PC, Mac, and iPad. Other media related to Pokémon TCG include several {{pkmn|manga}} titles, such as the series [[How I Became a Pokémon Card]].

==How to play==
[[File:Cardback.jpg|thumb|right|150px|Back of an English language card]]
:''See the {{TCG|Appendix:Glossary}} for a definition of most the Pokémon Trading Card Game terms.''
:''Also see the [http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-tcg/play-online/tutorial/ Step-by-step Web Browser TCG Tutorials] on [[Pokémon.com]] for a visual introduction to the card game.''
The ''Pokémon Trading Card Game'' is a two player game for all ages. Each player builds a [[Deck]] of sixty (60) cards using a combination of various ''"{{TCG|Pokémon|Pokémon card}}s"'' (the main type of cards used to battle), ''"{{TCG|Trainer card}}s"'' (cards with special effects), and ''"{{TCG|Energy card}}s"'' (cards that are required to perform most "''{{TCG|Attack}}s''"). New cards and decks are constantly being released, and players may purchase "''{{TCG|Booster pack}}s''" to integrate these cards into their own decks or purchase pre-made "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Trainer kit}}s''" or "''{{TCG|Theme deck|Theme Deck}}s''" that already have all the cards needed to play. The ''Pokémon Trading Card Game'' officially requires a deck of 60 cards for {{TCG|Standard format|Standard}} or {{TCG|Expanded format|Expanded}} play, though shorter {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Match}}es can be held with "''{{TCG|Half Deck}}s''" consisting of 30 cards instead. During a 60 card match, only four of any one card, excluding {{TCG|Energy card|Basic Energy}} cards, are allowed in each deck. This is further limited to two of any one card in a Half Deck match. Many fans have also created their own game rules and playing methods and have websites devoted to providing alternative playing methods. These rules and methods are not allowed in [[Play! Pokémon]] competitions.

===Who goes first?===
A game of the ''Pokémon Trading Card Game'' is called a "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Match}}''". To begin a match, players need a {{TCG|Coin}} or a six-sided die (where the ''even number'' sides represent ''Heads'' and the ''odd number'' sides represent ''Tails''). One player calls ''heads'' or ''tails'', while the other player flips the coin or rolls the die. If the player calling the coin flip gets his choice (heads or tails), that player gets to choose which player goes first. If the player calling the coin flip does not get his choice, the player flipping the coin gets to choose which player goes first. The player who goes first is not allowed to {{TCG|Attack}} on that player's first turn.

===Setup===
After determining which player goes first, both players place their {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Shuffle|Shuffled deck}} face down on the upper right side of their respective half of the player area or "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Field}}''". The field is roughly split in half with each player utilizing the half closest to them. The players then each take seven cards from the top of their respective decks. These cards go into their "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Hand}}''". Players then place one {{TCG|Pokémon|Basic Pokémon}} from their hand face down in front of them toward the upper center of their half of the field as their "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Active Pokémon}}''". If they have more than one Basic Pokémon, they may place the rest face down directly in from of them in their "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Bench}}''". No more than five Pokémon may occupy a given player’s Bench at the same time. {{DL|Evolution|In the TCG|Evolved Pokémon}} count as only one Pokémon when in play on the field. If a player does not have any Basic Pokémon in their hand during setup, they must reshuffle all the cards in their hand back into their deck, and then draw seven more cards. Repeat this process until each player can play a Basic Pokémon as their Active Pokémon. If a player has to reshuffle to get a Basic Pokémon into play, that player’s opponent gets to take an extra card from the top of their deck and put it into their hand (one card per each reshuffle). Next, each player sets aside six cards from the top of their deck face down to the left side of their half of the field. These six cards are their "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Prize Card|Prize card}}s''". Finally, each player reveals (or flips over) their Active and Bench Pokémon.

===Turns===
A player’s turn consists of the following:
# First, draw a card from the top of that player's deck;
# Attach one {{TCG|Energy card}} to one of that player’s Pokémon in play (either {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Active Pokémon|Active}} or {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Bench|Bench Pokémon}});
# Play {{TCG|Pokémon|Basic Pokémon}} to that player's Bench,
# {{DL|Evolution|In the TCG|Evolve}} any of that player's Pokémon in play;
# [[Retreat cost|Retreat]] that player's Active Pokémon if the Active Pokémon can satisfy the {{TCG|Energy card}} retreat cost;
# Play any {{TCG|Trainer card}}s in that player's {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Hand}} pertaining to the rules on each Trainer card and then typically placing that Trainer card face up in the player’s "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Discard Pile}}''", which is locked on the right side of the player's field just below that player's deck;
# Use any {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Ability|Abilities}} or {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Pokémon Power}}s that appear on that player's Active or Bench Pokémon, and
# Finally, "''{{TCG|Attack}}''" if that player has the appropriate {{TCG|Energy card|Energy card(s)}} attached on that player's {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Active Pokémon}}. Attacking '''always ends''' that player’s turn. The first player to have a turn is not allowed to attack, but all other actions are allowed as described above.
Other than the first and last actions, players may perform any action in any order. Players alternate turns until one player wins the game.

===Damage===
Pokémon {{TCG|Attack}}s typically cause {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Damage}} or apply a {{TCG|Special Conditions|Special condition}}. Special conditions have their own unique rules. Damage to all Pokémon in play is tracked with {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Damage|Damage Counters}} or dice. When the damage to a given Pokémon equals or exceeds that Pokémon’s {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Hit Points}}, it is "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Knock Out|Knocked Out}}''" and placed face up in the player’s {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Discard Pile}} along with any other cards that were attached to it (such as {{TCG|Energy card}}s). When an {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Active Pokémon}} is knocked out, the player's whose Pokémon was knocked out must replace the former Active Pokémon with another Pokémon from that player's {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Bench}}. At the same time, the player who knocked out his or her opponent's Pokémon gets to take any one of that player's remaining face down {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Prize card}}s and put that prize card into that player's hand.

===Winning a match===
To win a match, players must:
# Take their six [[Appendix:Glossary (TCG)#Prize Card|prize cards]] by {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Knock Out|knocking out}} their opponent's Pokémon by using {{TCG|Attack}}s to reduce the opponent's [[Appendix:Glossary (TCG)#Hit Points|HP to zero]].
# Players may also win when their opponent ''runs out of Pokémon'' on the field of play, which includes their [[Appendix:Glossary (TCG)#Active Pokémon|Active Pokémon]] and [[Appendix:Glossary (TCG)#Bench|Bench Pokémon]], or
# If their opponent ''cannot draw a card'' from their [[Deck]] at the beginning of their turn.

The '''Pokémon Trading Card Game''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンカードゲーム''', ''Pokémon Card Game''), often abbreviated as '''Pokémon TCG''' or just '''TCG''', is a tabletop game that involves collecting, trading and playing with Pokémon themed playing cards. It has its own set of rules but uses many motifs and ideas derived from the [[core series|video games]]. There are {{TCG|Pokémon|Pokémon card}}s for every [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|species]] of Pokémon, as well as {{TCG|Trainer card}}s featuring characters, items and other themes of the franchise (each with a different use) and {{TCG|Energy card}}s to power various actions. The artwork for the cards is provided by numerous artists.

The Pokémon TCG is a popular and steady aspect of the [[Pokémon]] franchise and is played and enjoyed by many fans. 21.5 billion Pokémon Trading Card Game cards have been produced worldwide. The game is part of the [[Play! Pokémon]] organized play along with the video game series and is also used in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game Online]].

==History==
[[File:JPCardback.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Original back of Japanese cards]]
The Pokémon Trading Card Game was originally published in Japan in 1996 by [[Media Factory]]. While other Pokémon card series existed in the past, this was the first card game based on the [[Pokémon]] series. The first Pokémon TCG sets took inspiration from the then released {{game2|Red|Green|Blue}} video games and initially featured illustrations by [[Ken Sugimori]], [[Mitsuhiro Arita]] and [[Keiji Kinebuchi]]. Soon new [[List of Pokémon Trading Card Game expansions|expansions]] began to release with many new artists contributing artwork. Three years later in 1999, Pokémon TCG was introduced in North America by [[Wizards of the Coast]] with the [[Base Set]], and worldwide soon after. In 2003, Wizards of the Coast's license was transferred to [[The Pokémon Company International]] by [[Nintendo]].

New features constantly appear in the Pokémon TCG. With the release of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} video games, the ''[[#Neo Series|Neo Series]]'' (the second series of [[List of Pokémon Trading Card Game expansions|expansions]]), started bringing several [[Generation II|new Pokémon]] into play. The {{TCG|Metal}} and {{TCG|Darkness}} {{TCG|type}}s of Pokémon cards were also introduced, along with {{TCG|Light Pokémon}} and {{TCG|Dark Pokémon}}. These were eventually discontinued to prevent confusion with the {{tcg|Darkness|Darkness type}}, but returned briefly with the release of the {{TCG|Neo Destiny}} expansion. The ''[[#e-Card Series|e-Card Series]]'' used [[Game Boy Advance]] add-on [[e-Reader]] to display [[Pokédex]] data about the Pokémon, play a minigame, play various tunes in a [[Melody Box]], or activate a special attack for that Pokémon. The ''[[#EX Series|EX Series]]'' was released next (the first series released by [[The Pokémon Company International]] instead of [[Wizards of the Coast]]), introducing the stronger {{TCG|Pokémon-ex}} into the game. The ''[[#Diamond & Pearl Series|Diamond & Pearl Series]]'' brought {{TCG|Pokémon LV.X}}, which were stronger, "Leveled-up" versions of final evolutions. Pokémon LV.X essentially replaced Pokémon-ex and continued until the {{TCG|Platinum: Arceus}} expansion. The ''[[#HeartGold & SoulSilver Series|HeartGold & SoulSilver Series]]'' featured two more types of card, {{TCG|Pokémon LEGEND}}, two-part cards with one Pokémon on each card, and {{TCG|Pokémon Prime}}, Pokémon with powerful and/or tactical attacks. With the release of the {{TCG|Black & White}} expansion, {{TCG|Poké-Power}}s ({{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Poké-POWER}}s and {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Poké-BODY}}s) were combined into one mechanic and renamed {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Ability|Abilities}}. ''Pokémon-ex'' returned as {{TCG|Pokémon-EX}} in the ''[[#Black & White Series|Black & White Series]]'' starting with the {{TCG|Next Destinies}} expansion. The {{TCG|Dragon}} Pokémon {{TCG|type}} was introduced in the {{TCG|Dragon Vault}} expansion of the ''Black & White Series''. ''{{DL|Pokémon-EX (TCG)|M Pokémon-EX}}'' were introduced in the {{TCG|XY}} expansion and introduce the [[Mega Evolution]] mechanic featured in the [[Pokémon X and Y]] video games to the TCG. The ''[[#XY Series|XY Series]]'' also introduced the {{TCG|Fairy}} {{TCG|type}} Pokémon. {{TCG|Pokémon-GX}} was introduced in the ''Sun & Moon Series''.

With the release of the ''[[#EX Series|EX Series]]'' worldwide, Pokémon TCG started publishing directly under [[Nintendo]] via its whole owned subsidiary [[The Pokémon Company International]], instead of [[Wizards of the Coast]]. In 2006, [[The Pokémon Company]] replaced Media Factory in distributing the cards in Japan starting with the ''[[#Diamond & Pearl Series|Diamond & Pearl Series]]''.

Two [[Game Boy Color]] video games based on the card game were created: {{ga|Pokémon Trading Card Game}} was released in 1998 and worldwide in 2000, and its sequel, [[Pokémon Card GB2: Here Comes Team GR!]], was released three years later. [[Pokémon Card Game: How to Play DS]] was released in Japan in 2011 and taught players how to play the Pokémon TCG. In 2011, the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game Online]] was introduced as a ''browser-based'' game but later became a downloadable game for PC, Mac, and iPad. Other media related to Pokémon TCG include several {{pkmn|manga}} titles, such as the series [[How I Became a Pokémon Card]].

==How to play==
[[File:Cardback.jpg|thumb|right|150px|Back of an English language card]]
:''See the {{TCG|Appendix:Glossary}} for a definition of most the Pokémon Trading Card Game terms.''
:''Also see the [http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-tcg/play-online/tutorial/ Step-by-step Web Browser TCG Tutorials] on [[Pokémon.com]] for a visual introduction to the card game.''
The ''Pokémon Trading Card Game'' is a two player game for all ages. Each player builds a [[Deck]] of sixty (60) cards using a combination of various ''"{{TCG|Pokémon|Pokémon card}}s"'' (the main type of cards used to battle), ''"{{TCG|Trainer card}}s"'' (cards with special effects), and ''"{{TCG|Energy card}}s"'' (cards that are required to perform most "''{{TCG|Attack}}s''"). New cards and decks are constantly being released, and players may purchase "''{{TCG|Booster pack}}s''" to integrate these cards into their own decks or purchase pre-made "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Trainer kit}}s''" or "''{{TCG|Theme deck|Theme Deck}}s''" that already have all the cards needed to play. The ''Pokémon Trading Card Game'' officially requires a deck of 60 cards for {{TCG|Standard format|Standard}} or {{TCG|Expanded format|Expanded}} play, though shorter {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Match}}es can be held with "''{{TCG|Half Deck}}s''" consisting of 30 cards instead. During a 60 card match, only four of any one card, excluding {{TCG|Energy card|Basic Energy}} cards, are allowed in each deck. This is further limited to two of any one card in a Half Deck match. Many fans have also created their own game rules and playing methods and have websites devoted to providing alternative playing methods. These rules and methods are not allowed in [[Play! Pokémon]] competitions.

To begin a match, players need a {{TCG|Coin}} or a six-sided die (where the ''even number'' sides represent ''Heads'' and the ''odd number'' sides represent ''Tails''). One player calls ''heads'' or ''tails'', while the other player flips the coin or rolls the die. If the player calling the coin flip gets his choice (heads or tails), that player gets to choose which player goes first. If the player calling the coin flip does not get his choice, the player flipping the coin gets to choose which player goes first. The player who goes first is not allowed to {{TCG|Attack}} on that player's first turn.

===Setup===
After determining which player goes first, both players place their {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Shuffle|Shuffled deck}} face down on the upper right side of their respective half of the player area or "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Field}}''". The field is roughly split in half with each player utilizing the half closest to them. The players then each take seven cards from the top of their respective decks. These cards go into their "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Hand}}''". Players then place one {{TCG|Pokémon|Basic Pokémon}} from their hand face down in front of them toward the upper center of their half of the field as their "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Active Pokémon}}''". If they have more than one Basic Pokémon, they may place the rest face down directly in from of them in their "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Bench}}''". No more than five Pokémon may occupy a given player’s Bench at the same time. {{DL|Evolution|In the TCG|Evolved Pokémon}} count as only one Pokémon when in play on the field. If a player does not have any Basic Pokémon in their hand during setup, they must reshuffle all the cards in their hand back into their deck, and then draw seven more cards. Repeat this process until each player can play a Basic Pokémon as their Active Pokémon. If a player has to reshuffle to get a Basic Pokémon into play, that player’s opponent gets to take an extra card from the top of their deck and put it into their hand (one card per each reshuffle). Next, each player sets aside six cards from the top of their deck face down to the left side of their half of the field. These six cards are their "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Prize Card|Prize card}}s''". Finally, each player reveals (or flips over) their Active and Bench Pokémon.

===Turns===
A player’s turn consists of the following:
# First, draw a card from the top of that player's deck;
# Attach one {{TCG|Energy card}} to one of that player’s Pokémon in play (either {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Active Pokémon|Active}} or {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Bench|Bench Pokémon}});
# Play {{TCG|Pokémon|Basic Pokémon}} to that player's Bench,
# {{DL|Evolution|In the TCG|Evolve}} any of that player's Pokémon in play;
# [[Retreat cost|Retreat]] that player's Active Pokémon if the Active Pokémon can satisfy the {{TCG|Energy card}} retreat cost;
# Play any {{TCG|Trainer card}}s in that player's {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Hand}} pertaining to the rules on each Trainer card and then typically placing that Trainer card face up in the player’s "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Discard Pile}}''", which is locked on the right side of the player's field just below that player's deck;
# Use any {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Ability|Abilities}} or {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Pokémon Power}}s that appear on that player's Active or Bench Pokémon, and
# Finally, "''{{TCG|Attack}}''" if that player has the appropriate {{TCG|Energy card|Energy card(s)}} attached on that player's {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Active Pokémon}}. Attacking '''always ends''' that player’s turn. The first player to have a turn is not allowed to attack, but all other actions are allowed as described above.
Other than the first and last actions, players may perform any action in any order. Players alternate turns until one player wins the game.

===Damage===
Pokémon {{TCG|Attack}}s typically cause {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Damage}} or apply a {{TCG|Special Conditions|Special condition}}. Special conditions have their own unique rules. Damage to all Pokémon in play is tracked with {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Damage|Damage Counters}} or dice. When the damage to a given Pokémon equals or exceeds that Pokémon’s {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Hit Points}}, it is "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Knock Out|Knocked Out}}''" and placed face up in the player’s {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Discard Pile}} along with any other cards that were attached to it (such as {{TCG|Energy card}}s). When an {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Active Pokémon}} is knocked out, the player's whose Pokémon was knocked out must replace the former Active Pokémon with another Pokémon from that player's {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Bench}}. At the same time, the player who knocked out his or her opponent's Pokémon gets to take any one of that player's remaining face down {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Prize card}}s and put that prize card into that player's hand.

===Winning a match===
To win a match, players must:
# Take their six [[Appendix:Glossary (TCG)#Prize Card|prize cards]] by {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Knock Out|knocking out}} their opponent's Pokémon by using {{TCG|Attack}}s to reduce the opponent's [[Appendix:Glossary (TCG)#Hit Points|HP to zero]].
# Players may also win when their opponent ''runs out of Pokémon'' on the field of play, which includes their [[Appendix:Glossary (TCG)#Active Pokémon|Active Pokémon]] and [[Appendix:Glossary (TCG)#Bench|Bench Pokémon]], or
# If their opponent ''cannot draw a card'' from their [[Deck]] at the beginning of their turn.

Buddy Pokémon

2017-03-28T14:02:49Z

Rmkane: /* Mechanics */ Noted the minimum Candy requirement.

[[File:Buddy Pokémon GO.png|thumb|A Buddy Pokémon]]
A '''Buddy Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''相棒ポケモン''' ''Partner Pokémon'') is a [[walking Pokémon]] in [[Pokémon GO]]. They allow the player to earn [[Candy]] for the Buddy Pokémon's family by walking with them. Buddy Pokémon were added to Pokémon GO in version 0.37.0 (labeled 1.7.0 on the {{wp|App Store (iOS)|iOS App Store}}), which was released on September 13, 2016.

==Mechanics==
The player earns Candy after walking a certain distance while the same Pokémon is equipped as their Buddy Pokémon. The distance required (1 km, 3 km or 5 km) depends on the Pokémon's evolutionary family. The player can only have one Buddy Pokémon at a time, and changing the Buddy Pokémon causes the distance until the next Candy is obtained to be reset.

Starting in version 0.49.1 (labelled 1.19.1 on the iOS App Store) of Pokémon GO, which was released on September 13, 2016, the total Candy collected by a particular Pokémon as a Buddy Pokémon is displayed on the buddy information screen, and the total distance walked with a Pokémon as a Buddy Pokémon is listed on that Pokémon's information screen.

Originally, the distance corresponded to half of the Pokémon's family's {{pkmn|Egg}} distance (rounded to the nearest whole number), but Egg distances changed while Buddy distances remained the same.

If {{p|Eevee}} is the current Buddy Pokémon and has walked 10 km, and obtained at least two Candies, with the player; it will evolve into {{p|Espeon}} in day mode or {{p|Umbreon}} in night mode. This does not override the ability of Eevee's [[nickname]] to cause it to evolve into a particular [[Eeveelution]].

==Position==
Each species of Pokémon has a defined buddy position. Medium Pokémon stand beside to the player, while large Pokémon stand behind the player. Flying Pokémon fly or float next to the player.

Pokémon with a position of "Shoulder" or "Arms" sit on the player's shoulder or ride in their arms, respectively. {{p|Pikachu}} initially stands beside the player, but moves to their arms if it collects a total of 10 Pikachu Candy.

{{StrategyWiki}}
'''Pokémon GO''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|Pokémon GO|ポケモン　ゴー}}}}''') is a multiplayer, location-based, {{wp|augmented reality}} Pokémon game for {{wp|iOS}} and {{wp|Android (operating system)|Android}}. The game results from a collaboration between [[The Pokémon Company]], [[Nintendo]], and [[Niantic]], Inc., and is {{wp|Freemium|free to download}} with in-app purchases. It was released in most markets with access to the iOS App Store or Google Play Store on a staggered schedule starting on July 6, 2016.

The game was announced at a press conference in Japan on September 10, 2015. Field tests for Pokémon GO were held from March 29, 2016 through June 30, 2016.

The game is compatible with the [[Pokémon GO Plus]], a {{wp|Bluetooth}} device that allows players to enjoy elements of the game without looking at their phone. Compatibility with the {{wp|Apple Watch}} was added in an update on December 22, 2016.

==Blurb==
Venusaur, Charizard, Blastoise, Pikachu, and many other Pokémon have been discovered on planet Earth!

Now’s your chance to discover and capture the Pokémon all around you—so get your shoes on, step outside, and explore the world. You’ll join one of three teams and battle for the prestige and ownership of Gyms with your Pokémon at your side.

Pokémon are out there, and you need to find them. As you walk around a neighborhood, your smartphone will vibrate when there’s a Pokémon nearby. Take aim and throw a Poké Ball… You’ll have to stay alert, or it might get away!

Search far and wide for Pokémon and items

Certain Pokémon appear near their native environment—look for Water-type Pokémon by lakes and oceans. Visit PokéStops, found at interesting places like museums, art installations, historical markers, and monuments, to stock up on Poké Balls and helpful items.

Catching, hatching, evolving, and more

As you level up, you’ll be able to catch more-powerful Pokémon to complete your Pokédex. You can add to your collection by hatching Pokémon Eggs based on the distances you walk. Help your Pokémon evolve by catching many of the same kind.

Take on Gym battles and defend your Gym

As your Charmander evolves to Charmeleon and then Charizard, you can battle together to defeat a Gym and assign your Pokémon to defend it against all comers.

It’s time to get moving—your real-life adventures await!

[[File:GO Guide Catch 3.png|thumb|200px|Encountering a wild Rattata, with AR mode disabled (Prior to 0.55.0 version)]]
In the game, [[wild Pokémon]] appear on a map of the real world, with the player moving in the game by travelling in the real world. When a Pokémon is nearby, the player's phone vibrates. The player can encounter a nearby Pokémon by tapping it in the Map View. Different kinds of Pokémon will appear in different environments; for example, {{type|Water}} Pokémon are more common near water. The player is assisted by [[Professor Willow]] throughout the game. Players can login using a [[Pokémon Trainer Club]] account or a Google account.

In a wild encounter, the player attempts to capture a wild Pokémon in a [[Poké Ball]] before it runs away. Unlike in the [[core series]] games, these encounters do not involve battle. At higher levels, the player can use [[Razz Berry|Razz Berries]] to make wild Pokémon easier to catch or use more powerful Poké Balls like {{ball|Great}}s and {{ball|Ultra}}. While holding a press on a Poké Ball, a ring will appear around the Pokémon. This ring shrinks over time; once it reaches its smallest size it immediately returns to full size and the cycle repeats. If the Poké Ball is thrown while the ring is very small, the capture is more likely to be successful.

The game can be played as an {{wp|augmented reality}} (AR) game, so that in wild encounters and Gym battles the Pokémon appear to be in the real world when looking at the smart device's screen. However, it is also possible to disable this functionality, which saves battery power and is necessary on some devices which do not support AR.

Catching and hatching Pokémon earns the player [[Candy]], which can be spent to [[evolution|evolve]] or [[Power Up]] Pokémon. Each evolutionary family has its own type of Candy, so in order to evolve a Pokémon the player needs to catch a number of Pokémon from that same evolutionary family. If a player wants to get rid of a Pokémon, they can transfer it to Professor Willow, who will permanently keep the Pokémon but give 1 Candy in return. Catching and hatching Pokémon also earns the player {{OBP|Stardust|GO}}, which also needs to be expended to [[Power Up]] Pokémon; unlike Candy, there is only one type of Stardust for all Pokémon.

There are two main types of locations in Pokémon GO: [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. PokéStops and Gyms exist at pre-defined real world locations, and the player must be within range of them in order to interact with them (although they can be inspected as long as they shown up in the Map View). Players can obtain items and {{pkmn|Egg}}s by visiting PokéStops, whereas players fight for control of Gyms.

Players can customize their appearance, such as clothing and accessories, which can be shown to other players. [[Pokémon Trainer]]s collect XP from performing various actions, such as catching Pokémon, which allows them to increase their Trainer [[level]]. Leveling up rewards the player with items, and some levels unlock features of the game. Wild Pokémon encountered by Trainers at higher levels are more likely to have higher CP. The maximum number of times an individual Pokémon can be [[Power Up|Powered Up]] increases with the Trainer's level.

[[PokéCoin]]s can be obtained in-game or via in-app purchases with real money. They can be traded for extra items and other enhancements.

===Available Pokémon===
Only Pokémon introduced in [[Generation I]] and {{gen|II}} are available in the game. Evolved Pokémon can be caught in the wild, but currently {{pkmn2|Legendary}} and [[Mythical Pokémon]] have not been found in the wild.

On November 23, 2016, {{p|Ditto}} became available in the game (appearing disguised as {{p|Pidgey}}, {{p|Rattata}}, {{p|Zubat}}, or {{p|Magikarp}}).

On December 12, 2016, almost all Generation II [[baby Pokémon]] became available in the game, exclusively from {{pkmn|Eggs}} (specifically, {{p|Pichu}}, {{p|Cleffa}}, {{p|Igglybuff}}, {{p|Togepi}}, {{p|Smoochum}}, {{p|Elekid}}, and {{p|Magby}}). {{p|Togetic}} became available in the game exclusively by evolving Togepi.

On February 16, 2017, most remaining [[Generation II]] Pokémon became available in the wild. [[Generation I]] Pokémon that have [[Generation II]] [[List of Pokémon with cross-generational evolutions|cross-generational evolutions]] can now evolve into those evolutions. {{p|Togetic}} can now appear in the wild. Wild {{p|Ditto}} can appear disguised as {{p|Hoothoot}}, {{p|Sentret}}, and {{p|Yanma}} as well.

====Availability====
The player may choose from the three [[Kanto]] [[starter Pokémon]] at the beginning of the game: {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, or {{p|Squirtle}}. If the player walks away from the starter Pokémon four times, {{p|Pikachu}} will also appear as a possible starter Pokémon. These Pokémon may also be found in the wild later on.

Which Pokémon {{p|Eevee}} evolves into is normally random. However, if Eevee is nicknamed after one of the [[Eevee brothers]] before evolving, it will evolve into their respective evolution: Sparky for {{p|Jolteon}}, Rainer for {{p|Vaporeon}}, and Pyro for {{p|Flareon}}.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/4t0cpo/psa_how_to_force_your_eevee_to_evolve_into_your/?st=iqo9zize&sh=66e8bdd1</ref> If Eevee is named after two of the [[Kimono Girl]]s' anime names, it will evolve into their respective evolution: Sakura for {{p|Espeon}} and Tamao for {{p|Umbreon}}. This can only be done once per evolution.

{{p|Farfetch'd}}, {{p|Kangaskhan}}, {{p|Mr. Mime}}, {{p|Tauros}}, and {{p|Heracross}} appear to be region-exclusive, currently only being found in Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, and Central/South America respectively. {{p|Corsola}} is also a region-exclusive, appearing between {{wp|latitude}} 26° S and 31° N.

===Locations===
There are two main types of locations in Pokémon GO: [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. PokéStops and Gyms exist at pre-defined real world locations, and the player must be within range of them in order to interact with them (although they can be inspected as long as they shown up in the Map View).

The locations of PokéStops and Gyms are based on a selection of portals from the Niantic game {{wp|Ingress (video game)|Ingress}}. Until 2015, Ingress players could submit proposals for portals which subsequently had to be approved by Niantic.

PokéStops allow players to obtain items and Eggs by spinning the Photo Disc. At Gyms, players can battle to weaken those belonging to opposing teams or strengthen those belonging to their own team; a player can earn {{OBP|Stardust|GO}} and [[PokéCoin]]s by holding onto Gyms. PokéStops are much more common than Gyms.

Depending on where a player lives, PokéStops and Gyms may be very common or very sparse, tending to be more common in urban areas due to a higher population density resulting in more Ingress players in those areas. If there are no nearby PokéStops, the player can only obtain Poké Balls by leveling up or purchasing them with PokéCoins; if there are no nearby Gyms, the player can only obtain PokéCoins by purchasing them with real currency.

===Teams===
[[File:GO Professors Assistants.png|300px|thumb|The Team Leaders, Candela, Blanche and Spark.]]
After the player reaches level 5, they can choose a team by tapping a Gym. There are three teams: Team Instinct (yellow) whose leader is Spark, Team Mystic (blue) whose leader is Blanche, and Team Valor (red) whose leader is Candela. A Gym can only be controlled by one team at a time. If a Gym is controlled by the player's team, they can train at it and add one of their own Pokémon to defend it. If a Gym is controlled by a rival team, the player can battle it to decrease its Prestige; when a Gym's Prestige reaches zero, any nearby player can claim it for their own team.

Pokémon Appraisal, added in version 0.35.0 (labelled version 1.5.0 on the iOS App Store), has the chosen Team's leader detail a Pokémon's stats much like a [[stats judge]] in the core series. They describe how good the Pokémon would be in a battle, which of its three stats is its highest, and how good its stats are overall. They will also note if the Pokémon's height or weight is particularly far from the average listed in the Pokédex.

===PokéCoins===
[[File:PokéCoin.png|thumb|100px|A PokéCoin]]
{{main|PokéCoin}}
PokéCoins are the in-app currency used in Pokémon GO. There are two ways of obtaining PokéCoins: the {{OBP|Gym|GO}} Defender bonus or by purchasing them with real money.

To obtain the Defender bonus, the player must open the Shop menu and tap the shield icon while they have a Pokémon in at least one Gym. They will earn {{OBP|Stardust|GO}} and 10 PokéCoins for each Gym they currently hold, being able to obtain this bonus once every 21 hours.

===Experience===
{{main|Experience#Pokémon GO|Experience → Pokémon GO}}
In Pokémon GO, the player earns experience (abbreviated XP), rather than the Pokémon. As the player gains experience they gain levels. Leveling up awards the player with items, and certain levels unlock particular items. After reaching level 5, the player can choose a team, which allows them to use {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. As the player's level increases, their Pokémon are able to achieve a higher Combat Power as the player powers them up.

===Eggs===
[[File:GO Egg 2 km.png|thumb|150px|A 2 km egg in Pokémon GO (originally used for Eggs of all distances)]]
{{main|Pokémon Egg#Pokémon GO|Pokémon Egg → Pokémon GO}}
The player can obtain Eggs at [[PokéStop]]s. An Egg will hatch after traveling a certain distance while the Egg is in an incubator. Three Egg distances are possible: 2 km, 5 km, and 10 km. Each species has a set Egg distance and can only hatch from Eggs with this distance.
{{-}}
===Buddy===
[[File:Buddy Pokémon GO.png|thumb|150px|A Buddy Pokémon]]
{{main|Buddy Pokémon}}
By assigning a Buddy Pokémon, the player can receive additional candies for that species of Pokémon as they walk. Depending on the species, one can get candies every 1 km, 3 km or 5 km walked. One can only have a single Buddy assigned at a time, and by changing the Buddy the progress made is lost, but the candies earned are kept.

===Medals===
{{main|Medal#Pokémon GO|Medal → Pokémon GO}}
The game has challenges that award [[Medal#Pokémon GO|medals]] upon completion. Medals can be viewed from a player's profile.

===Daily bonuses===
Daily bonuses were added to Pokémon GO in version 0.45.0 (labelled 1.15.0 on the {{wp|App Store (iOS)|iOS App Store}}), which was released on November 7, 2016. Daily bonuses give the player extra rewards if they perform certain actions each day (local time).

The first Pokémon the player catches each day earn the player a bonus 500 [[experience|XP]] and 600 {{OBP|Stardust|GO}}. If the player catches a Pokémon every day for 7 days in a row, they will earn a bonus of 2500 XP and 3000 Stardust.

The first [[PokéStop]] the player searches each day earn the player a bonus 500 [[experience|XP]] and extra items. If the player searches PokéStops every day for 7 days in a row, they will earn a bonus of 2500 XP and even more items. The 7-day streak bonus is more likely to give the player Evolution items such as the [[King's Rock]].

However, the game is also playable on some iOS and Android devices that are not officially supported.

==Connectivity==
Pokémon GO currently has no connectivity with other Pokémon games. However, [[Junichi Masuda]] has stated that the developers plan to add connectivity with the [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|next entry]] in the [[core series]] Pokémon games.<ref>[https://youtu.be/qqbsdqjgj-k?t=29m16s Pokémon GO - Demonstration - Nintendo E3 2016 (YouTube)]</ref><ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20160715175300/http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/news-from-the-pokemon-go-announcement/ News From the Pokémon GO Announcement - Pokemon.com (archived July 15, 2016)]</ref>

==Partnerships==
{{incomplete|section|Partnerships in Japan}}
Due to the popularity of Pokémon GO, the game has partnered with several other companies to offer special promotions. These partnerships often involve sponsored locations, wherein stores affiliated with the partner company become [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s; sponsored locations do not appear in the game for players under the age of 13.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Starbucks}} in the United States. Starting December 8, 2016, 7,800 company-operated Starbucks stores in the United States have been made into PokéStops and Gyms. Additionally, Starbucks is selling a special-edition Pokémon GO Frappuccino as part of this partnership; the Pokémon GO Frappuccino starts with a Vanilla Bean {{wp|Frappuccino}} blended beverage and raspberry syrup blended with freeze-dried whole blackberries and topped with whipped cream.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Sprint Corporation|Sprint}} in the United States. Starting December 7, 2016, 10,500 Sprint, {{wp|Boost Mobile}}, and Sprint at {{wp|RadioShack|Radioshack}} stores in the United States are becoming PokéStops and Gyms. Sprint locations also feature in-store charging stations to allow Pokémon GO players to charge their devices.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Jio|Reliance Jio Infocomm}} (which operates under the name Jio) in India. Starting December 13, 2016, nearly 3,000 Jio stores (thousands of {{wp|Reliance Digital}} stores according to Jio's press release) and select partner premises in India will become PokéStops or Gyms in the Pokémon GO, as well as offering charging stations for players. On Jio's social messaging app, JioChat, Pokémon players have access to an exclusive Pokémon GO channel to allow them to collaborate and be part of a community of players with daily tips, contests, clues, and special events. During Jio's "Happy New Year" offer, Jio {{wp|Subscriber identity module|SIM}} customers will be able to download and play Pokémon GO without incurring data charges, like any other apps and content, until March 31, 2017.

==Development==
The game was conceived by John Hanke after the development of Niantic's Ingress. It was decided that a game based on Pokémon would be a good choice, due to its focus on collecting the titular creatures. Hanke brought the idea to the Pokémon Company and talked with Mr. Isihara. Development began. Junichi Masuda worked with Niantic on the game's development.<ref>''Game Informer #81: Pokénomenon''</ref>

An Ingress Report released on September 10, 2015, the day of the game's announcement, stated that a closed beta would occur during Northern Hemisphere winter 2015 and that the game would be released in early 2016.<ref name="IngressReport">[https://youtu.be/HMsM1nzWiYw?t=2m22s INGRESS REPORT - Begin New Journey - Raw Feed September 10 2015]</ref> However, no beta testing occurred during 2015.<ref>[https://archive.is/0noAj Pokémon GO - Pokemon.com (archived February 7, 2016)]</ref><ref>[http://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2016/01/160108_at01.html 『Pokémon GO』のベータテストについて｜ポケットモンスターオフィシャルサイト]</ref>

Field tests were held in Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and the United States prior to the game's public release. Selected applicants were given the opportunity to test the game.
* Japan: held from March 29 to June 30, 2016, announced on March 3, 2016<ref>[https://archive.is/5731W Pokémon GO - Pokemon.com (archived March 3, 2016)]</ref><ref>[https://www.nianticlabs.com/blog/pokemon-fieldtest/ Pokémon GO field testing will begin in Japan - Niantic, Inc.]</ref>
* Australia and New Zealand: held from April 25 to June 30, 2016, announced on April 7, 2016<ref>[https://www.nianticlabs.com/blog/pokemon-fieldtest-au-nz/ Pokémon GO field testing expands to Australia and New Zealand - Niantic, Inc.]</ref>
* United States: held from May 25 to June 30, 2016, announced on May 16, 2016<ref>[https://www.nianticlabs.com/blog/pokemon-fieldtest-us/ Pokémon GO field testing expands to the United States - Niantic, Inc.]</ref>

A session at the {{wp|Game Developers Conference}} featuring the game [[n:Pokémon GO to be discussed at Game Developers Conference|was intended to be held]] by Niantic CEO John Hanke on March 14, 2016, but was later cancelled due to Niantic preparing the game for beta testing and launch.<ref>[http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2016/03/03/pokemon-go-gdc-presentation-canceled.aspx Pokémon Go GDC Presentation Canceled - www.GameInformer.com]</ref>

Hello, I am a software developer and web designer. I edit wikis to keep them up-to-date with useful information.

I actively play [[Pokémon GO]] and the main series game [[Pokémon Sun]]. I have a small collection of [[Pokémon TCG]] cards — with the most being the [[Poliwrath]] evolutionary line.

[[File:Pokémon TCG logo.png|right|200px|thumb|International logo]]
The '''Pokémon Trading Card Game''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンカードゲーム''', ''Pokémon Card Game''), often abbreviated as '''Pokémon TCG''' or just '''TCG''', is a tabletop game that involves collecting, trading and playing with Pokémon themed playing cards. It has its own set of rules but uses many motifs and ideas derived from the [[core series|video games]]. There are {{TCG|Pokémon|Pokémon card}}s for every [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|species]] of Pokémon, as well as {{TCG|Trainer card}}s featuring characters, items and other themes of the franchise (each with a different use) and {{TCG|Energy card}}s to power various actions. The artwork for the cards is provided by numerous artists.

The Pokémon TCG is a popular and steady aspect of the [[Pokémon]] franchise and is played and enjoyed by many fans. 21.5 billion Pokémon Trading Card Game cards have been produced worldwide. The game is part of the [[Play! Pokémon]] organized play along with the video game series and is also used in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game Online]].

==History==
[[File:JPCardback.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Original back of Japanese cards]]
The Pokémon Trading Card Game was originally published in Japan in 1996 by [[Media Factory]]. While other Pokémon card series existed in the past, this was the first card game based on the [[Pokémon]] series. The first Pokémon TCG sets took inspiration from the then released {{game2|Red|Green|Blue}} video games and initially featured illustrations by [[Ken Sugimori]], [[Mitsuhiro Arita]] and [[Keiji Kinebuchi]]. Soon new [[List of Pokémon Trading Card Game expansions|expansions]] began to release with many new artists contributing artwork. Three years later in 1999, Pokémon TCG was introduced in North America by [[Wizards of the Coast]] with the [[Base Set]], and worldwide soon after. In 2003, Wizards of the Coast's license was transferred to [[The Pokémon Company International]] by [[Nintendo]].

New features constantly appear in the Pokémon TCG. With the release of {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} video games, the ''[[#Neo Series|Neo Series]]'' (the second series of [[List of Pokémon Trading Card Game expansions|expansions]]), started bringing several [[Generation II|new Pokémon]] into play. The {{TCG|Metal}} and {{TCG|Darkness}} {{TCG|type}}s of Pokémon cards were also introduced, along with {{TCG|Light Pokémon}} and {{TCG|Dark Pokémon}}. These were eventually discontinued to prevent confusion with the {{tcg|Darkness|Darkness type}}, but returned briefly with the release of the {{TCG|Neo Destiny}} expansion. The ''[[#e-Card Series|e-Card Series]]'' used [[Game Boy Advance]] add-on [[e-Reader]] to display [[Pokédex]] data about the Pokémon, play a minigame, play various tunes in a [[Melody Box]], or activate a special attack for that Pokémon. The ''[[#EX Series|EX Series]]'' was released next (the first series released by [[The Pokémon Company International]] instead of [[Wizards of the Coast]]), introducing the stronger {{TCG|Pokémon-ex}} into the game. The ''[[#Diamond & Pearl Series|Diamond & Pearl Series]]'' brought {{TCG|Pokémon LV.X}}, which were stronger, "Leveled-up" versions of final evolutions. Pokémon LV.X essentially replaced Pokémon-ex and continued until the {{TCG|Platinum: Arceus}} expansion. The ''[[#HeartGold & SoulSilver Series|HeartGold & SoulSilver Series]]'' featured two more types of card, {{TCG|Pokémon LEGEND}}, two-part cards with one Pokémon on each card, and {{TCG|Pokémon Prime}}, Pokémon with powerful and/or tactical attacks. With the release of the {{TCG|Black & White}} expansion, {{TCG|Poké-Power}}s ({{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Poké-POWER}}s and {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Poké-BODY}}s) were combined into one mechanic and renamed {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Ability|Abilities}}. ''Pokémon-ex'' returned as {{TCG|Pokémon-EX}} in the ''[[#Black & White Series|Black & White Series]]'' starting with the {{TCG|Next Destinies}} expansion. The {{TCG|Dragon}} Pokémon {{TCG|type}} was introduced in the {{TCG|Dragon Vault}} expansion of the ''Black & White Series''. ''{{DL|Pokémon-EX (TCG)|M Pokémon-EX}}'' were introduced in the {{TCG|XY}} expansion and introduce the [[Mega Evolution]] mechanic featured in the [[Pokémon X and Y]] video games to the TCG. The ''[[#XY Series|XY Series]]'' also introduced the {{TCG|Fairy}} {{TCG|type}} Pokémon. {{TCG|Pokémon-GX}} was introduced in the ''Sun & Moon Series''.

With the release of the ''[[#EX Series|EX Series]]'' worldwide, Pokémon TCG started publishing directly under [[Nintendo]] via its whole owned subsidiary [[The Pokémon Company International]], instead of [[Wizards of the Coast]]. In 2006, [[The Pokémon Company]] replaced Media Factory in distributing the cards in Japan starting with the ''[[#Diamond & Pearl Series|Diamond & Pearl Series]]''.

Two [[Game Boy Color]] video games based on the card game were created: {{ga|Pokémon Trading Card Game}} was released in 1998 and worldwide in 2000, and its sequel, [[Pokémon Card GB2: Here Comes Team GR!]], was released three years later. [[Pokémon Card Game: How to Play DS]] was released in Japan in 2011 and taught players how to play the Pokémon TCG. In 2011, the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game Online]] was introduced as a ''browser-based'' game but later became a downloadable game for PC, Mac, and iPad. Other media related to Pokémon TCG include several {{pkmn|manga}} titles, such as the series [[How I Became a Pokémon Card]].

==How to play==
[[File:Cardback.jpg|thumb|right|150px|Back of an English language card]]
:''See the {{TCG|Appendix:Glossary}} for a definition of most the Pokémon Trading Card Game terms.''
:''Also see the [http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-tcg/play-online/tutorial/ Step-by-step Web Browser TCG Tutorials] on [[Pokémon.com]] for a visual introduction to the card game.''
The ''Pokémon Trading Card Game'' is a two player game for all ages. Each player builds a [[Deck]] of sixty (60) cards using a combination of various ''"{{TCG|Pokémon|Pokémon card}}s"'' (the main type of cards used to battle), ''"{{TCG|Trainer card}}s"'' (cards with special effects), and ''"{{TCG|Energy card}}s"'' (cards that are required to perform most "''{{TCG|Attack}}s''"). New cards and decks are constantly being released, and players may purchase "''{{TCG|Booster pack}}s''" to integrate these cards into their own decks or purchase pre-made "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Trainer kit}}s''" or "''{{TCG|Theme deck|Theme Deck}}s''" that already have all the cards needed to play. The ''Pokémon Trading Card Game'' officially requires a deck of 60 cards for {{TCG|Standard format|Standard}} or {{TCG|Expanded format|Expanded}} play, though shorter {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Match}}es can be held with "''{{TCG|Half Deck}}s''" consisting of 30 cards instead. During a 60 card match, only four of any one card, excluding {{TCG|Energy card|Basic Energy}} cards, are allowed in each deck. This is further limited to two of any one card in a Half Deck match. Many fans have also created their own game rules and playing methods and have websites devoted to providing alternative playing methods. These rules and methods are not allowed in [[Play! Pokémon]] competitions.

===Who goes first?===
A game of the ''Pokémon Trading Card Game'' is called a "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Match}}''". To begin a match, players need a {{TCG|Coin}} or a six-sided die (where the ''even number'' sides represent ''Heads'' and the ''odd number'' sides represent ''Tails''). One player calls ''heads'' or ''tails'', while the other player flips the coin or rolls the die. If the player calling the coin flip gets his choice (heads or tails), that player gets to choose which player goes first. If the player calling the coin flip does not get his choice, the player flipping the coin gets to choose which player goes first. The player who goes first is not allowed to {{TCG|Attack}} on that player's first turn.

===Setup===
After determining which player goes first, both players place their {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Shuffle|Shuffled deck}} face down on the upper right side of their respective half of the player area or "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Field}}''". The field is roughly split in half with each player utilizing the half closest to them. The players then each take seven cards from the top of their respective decks. These cards go into their "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Hand}}''". Players then place one {{TCG|Pokémon|Basic Pokémon}} from their hand face down in front of them toward the upper center of their half of the field as their "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Active Pokémon}}''". If they have more than one Basic Pokémon, they may place the rest face down directly in from of them in their "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Bench}}''". No more than five Pokémon may occupy a given player’s Bench at the same time. {{DL|Evolution|In the TCG|Evolved Pokémon}} count as only one Pokémon when in play on the field. If a player does not have any Basic Pokémon in their hand during setup, they must reshuffle all the cards in their hand back into their deck, and then draw seven more cards. Repeat this process until each player can play a Basic Pokémon as their Active Pokémon. If a player has to reshuffle to get a Basic Pokémon into play, that player’s opponent gets to take an extra card from the top of their deck and put it into their hand (one card per each reshuffle). Next, each player sets aside six cards from the top of their deck face down to the left side of their half of the field. These six cards are their "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Prize Card|Prize card}}s''". Finally, each player reveals (or flips over) their Active and Bench Pokémon.

===Turns===
A player’s turn consists of the following:
# First, draw a card from the top of that player's deck;
# Attach one {{TCG|Energy card}} to one of that player’s Pokémon in play (either {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Active Pokémon|Active}} or {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Bench|Bench Pokémon}});
# Play {{TCG|Pokémon|Basic Pokémon}} to that player's Bench,
# {{DL|Evolution|In the TCG|Evolve}} any of that player's Pokémon in play;
# [[Retreat cost|Retreat]] that player's Active Pokémon if the Active Pokémon can satisfy the {{TCG|Energy card}} retreat cost;
# Play any {{TCG|Trainer card}}s in that player's {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Hand}} pertaining to the rules on each Trainer card and then typically placing that Trainer card face up in the player’s "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Discard Pile}}''", which is locked on the right side of the player's field just below that player's deck;
# Use any {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Ability|Abilities}} or {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Pokémon Power}}s that appear on that player's Active or Bench Pokémon, and
# Finally, "''{{TCG|Attack}}''" if that player has the appropriate {{TCG|Energy card|Energy card(s)}} attached on that player's {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Active Pokémon}}. Attacking '''always ends''' that player’s turn. The first player to have a turn is not allowed to attack, but all other actions are allowed as described above.
Other than the first and last actions, players may perform any action in any order. Players alternate turns until one player wins the game.

===Damage===
Pokémon {{TCG|Attack}}s typically cause {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Damage}} or apply a {{TCG|Special Conditions|Special condition}}. Special conditions have their own unique rules. Damage to all Pokémon in play is tracked with {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Damage|Damage Counters}} or dice. When the damage to a given Pokémon equals or exceeds that Pokémon’s {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Hit Points}}, it is "''{{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Knock Out|Knocked Out}}''" and placed face up in the player’s {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Discard Pile}} along with any other cards that were attached to it (such as {{TCG|Energy card}}s). When an {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Active Pokémon}} is knocked out, the player's whose Pokémon was knocked out must replace the former Active Pokémon with another Pokémon from that player's {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Bench}}. At the same time, the player who knocked out his or her opponent's Pokémon gets to take any one of that player's remaining face down {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Prize card}}s and put that prize card into that player's hand.

===Winning a match===
To win a match, players must:
# Take their six [[Appendix:Glossary (TCG)#Prize Card|prize cards]] by {{DL|Appendix:Glossary (TCG)|Knock Out|knocking out}} their opponent's Pokémon by using {{TCG|Attack}}s to reduce the opponent's [[Appendix:Glossary (TCG)#Hit Points|HP to zero]].
# Players may also win when their opponent ''runs out of Pokémon'' on the field of play, which includes their [[Appendix:Glossary (TCG)#Active Pokémon|Active Pokémon]] and [[Appendix:Glossary (TCG)#Bench|Bench Pokémon]], or
# If their opponent ''cannot draw a card'' from their [[Deck]] at the beginning of their turn.

== Continued from my questions ==

Sorrry, I couldn't find the archived talk where I originally posted this. Anyway, why can't the Generation VI sprites just be treated like 120 by 120 still images? [[User:Sumwun|sumwun]] ([[User talk:Sumwun|talk]]) 18:43, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
:The archive is [[User talk:SnorlaxMonster/Archive/8|here]]. You can find it by mousing over "Pokémon" in the template at the top of the page (maybe I should make that clearer).
:Anyway, there are no sprites in Gen VI, only models. Models just don't work the same way, so we decided to use artwork instead. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 00:35, 15 August 2016 (UTC)

== Super Mystery Dungeon Move Descriptions ==

I'm planning to begin adding Super Mystery Dungeon's move descriptions to each of the move pages. However, each move has two separate descriptions, one on the move's basic info box, and another one that goes into more detail if needed, and I'd like your opinion (others are welcome too) on which should be used before I start. Most of the time, they're either the same or they managed to fit the most important details fit into the shorter one, but occasionally not; for example, Stockpile's short description doesn't mention its Defense/Sp. Defense raising effect. I've included example images of Stockpile and three others in this [http://imgur.com/a/x3e8U imgur album]–Feint (expanded detail example), Extrasensory (where the 'short' one is actually longer), and Splash (another 'expanded detail' one, but both have a fair amount of fluff). There have been a few descriptions added already (mainly starter moves) and they've all used the short one, but I wanted to make sure I'm doing the most desirable thing before I put the effort into documenting them all. [[User:VioletPumpkin|VioletPumpkin]] ([[User talk:VioletPumpkin|talk]]) 00:57, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
:I don't really know. I haven't played Super Mystery Dungeon or very much of Gates to Infinity, so I haven't really helped with their coverage. In the older Mystery Dungeon games there are two descriptions for items (one very short, one full length), and I had been using the full-length descriptions on item pages. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 01:45, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
::I see. I'm not familiar with the older Mystery Dungeon games, so it's interesting that something similar existed there. I noticed earlier today while working on the item pages that the people who had been editing those pages had been using the short descriptions for SMD, though in most cases those descriptions are very similar. That said, after looking at the entries for old games and comparing them to the SMD ones, it looks like the full-length ones were used for the old games, and more information than I thought was being lost with the shorter ones, so I think I'll go with the full-length ones. Thanks for answering! [[User:VioletPumpkin|VioletPumpkin]] ([[User talk:VioletPumpkin|talk]]) 04:27, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
:::Just to chime in, I've been using the long descriptions for the items I've been editing. At first, I wasn't aware of the short version so while I was editing I was confused about where people had gotten a different item description than me, so I changed them. I only realised later, but I've stuck to the long ones for now, but many of the item descriptions haven't been reverted to the long version. I agree that going for the long one has less risk of losing information.--[[User:Wowy|'''Wowy''']][[User talk:Wowy|'''(토크)''']] 08:44, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
::::Ah, I didn't realize that, so thanks for the heads up. I'll probably be doing more SMD additions today, so I'll be sure to double-check the Health Drink page (where I made those edits) first. [[User:VioletPumpkin|VioletPumpkin]] ([[User talk:VioletPumpkin|talk]]) 15:42, 22 August 2016 (UTC)

== Struggle and recoil ==

UPC says that Struggle does not have recoil damage from Gen IV onward, and every other effect we have that affects recoil does not affect the self-inflicted HP loss from Struggle. And Struggle's effect contradicts our definition of recoil, as it is not depending on the damage dealt. Struggle's description never says recoil, and the in-game description does not call it recoil. So I could only imagine you mean/checked the message, and that that's just the standard recoil message that says "recoil"? In which case, I guess we should separate Struggle recoil from any other recoil, and just say that Struggle is also said to have recall, even though it... hasn't. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 10:14, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
:When you use Struggle in battle, it says "''<Pokémon> was damaged by the recoil''", just like every other recoil move. Its recoil damage is calculated in a different way to other recoil moves (except {{m|Shadow End}}) and it's not affected by Abilities that affect other recoil moves, but the game calls it recoil so that's what it is. Struggle is clearly a special-case move, so I think it being an exception to these effects makes perfect sense.
:It's also worth noting that the move descriptions for recoil moves are worded the same way as Struggle's (not that you can ever see Struggle's move description in-game). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 10:24, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
::Ok, fair point. Well, technically, it isn't the same recoil than the others; so Rock Head's description, for example, is either refering to specifically the non-Struggle "recoil" variant, or does only refer to "some" recoil it can protect from. Does that mean that you think we should do what I just proposed, or do you think we should redefine our recoil definition (and make a special case for Struggle post-GenIII)?
::Worth noting that {{m|Overheat}} and its variations also mention "recoil" in their descriptions. Would you prefer to include that on the page? [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 10:37, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
:::Ability descriptions tend to try to be very concise because they don't have much room (particularly in older games). Struggle is an exception, but Ability descriptions don't tend to note exceptions; the Shadow moves that inflict recoil are also both exceptions to Rock Head. Also, Struggle calculated recoil damage the same way as other recoil moves did in Gen III, but it still wasn't affected by Rock Head.
:::I don't think Overheat is referring to the same concept (notably it doesn't say "recoil ''damage''", just "recoil"). I wouldn't be surprised if the description didn't consistently use the word used for recoil damage across languages (although it might anyway).
:::As for what to do, my suggestion would be to fix the recoil page to correct the definition of recoil. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 10:45, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
::::Descriptions seem to be consistent across languages (checked Japanese and German). I guess the concepts may be related (negative effect of using a move), but they obviously aren't all the same. Anyway, our description says it's damage, as does the pokemon.com glossary that we encountered at Multi Battle.
::::I'll be redefining then, if you don't mind. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 10:58, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
:::::Not that it matters anymore since we seem to have reached a consensus, but that page also says ''Struggle also causes recoil damage equal to 25% of the attacking Pokémon's maximum HP.'' --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 11:08, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
::::::Ok, even better then. And I guess one just cannot share ''too'' much relevant information in any constructive discussion. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 11:30, 18 August 2016 (UTC)

==Edit war==
Can you check this edit war about the order moves should be listed: [[User_talk:VioletPumpkin#ORAS order]]. [[User:Jeangabin666|Jeangabin666]] ([[User talk:Jeangabin666|talk]]) 17:06, 22 August 2016 (UTC)

== [[Ash's Donphan]] trivium intervention request ==

If it's not too much trouble, could I ask you to please take a look at the last few revisions of [[Ash's Donphan]] and give your opinion? I'd like a ruling from someone higher up so I don't have to go back and forth with Force Fire on a talk page, since frankly in the past few weeks he seems to have developed a vendetta against me. Thanks for your consideration. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 06:06, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
:I agree that the previous trivium was both vague and too specific (although those terms seem contradictory). I think [[Special:Diff/2493233|this edit]] brings it to a reasonable point. I'm not sure about restricting it to just Oak's lab though: Charizard's return from Charific Valley was certainly in the same spirit.; it also excludes Pokémon the Series: Black and White, in which Ash effectively has more than 6 Pokémon on hand by rotating them between his party and Juniper's lab. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 06:40, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
::I was about to come here and say "never mind" after seeing that Force Fire re-adjusted it, but yeah, I agree wholeheartedly. Thanks. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 06:48, 25 August 2016 (UTC)

== Pokemon Go Pokedex Data ==

Are we going to add pokedex data for Pokemon from Pokemon GO ? [[User:Upratik 12|Pratik_12]] '' [[User talk:Upratik 12|Talk]]'' 12:06, 30 August 2016 (UTC)
: I was planning on adding the data, but wanted to confirm and know where the data gets added [[User:Upratik 12|Pratik_12]] '' [[User talk:Upratik 12|Talk]]'' 12:07, 30 August 2016 (UTC)
::The Pokédex entries are all taken from Omega Ruby, so there's no point listing them again. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 14:08, 30 August 2016 (UTC)

== Stadium 2 Pokédex data ==

I am fairly sure Stadium 2 does not have its own entries. It loads Generation II entries; in case of Gold and Silver it seems to load the opposite version's (Crystal uses Gold's, apparently); using Red seems to load Gold's, Yellow has Silver's; haven't checked Blue yet. I am not sure if it depends on the game version or it randomizes for each Trainer ID (considering Crystal loads Gold's, even though Stadium 2 and Crystal had simultaneous release in Japan, so was it a translation thing?) [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 13:02, 1 September 2016 (UTC)
:I believe you've mentioned this before. In any case, there's not much to do about it until we actually know how it gets them. It's also worth noting that [[Pikachu (Pokémon)#Pokédex entries_3|our article for Pikachu]] has different capitalizations for "Berries" between Gold and Stadium 2. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 13:21, 1 September 2016 (UTC)
::I think I've mentioned it few years ago. I am mentioning it again because GO's case reminded me of it. Pikachu entry is the same in both games - it is BERRIES and not Berries or berries. The old games formatted certain words like this (it wasn't dropped entirely until Generation V as far as I know). [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 13:34, 1 September 2016 (UTC)
:::Yeah, I figured there was an error on that page and it wasn't an actual difference. I have to focus on the Nintendo Direct now though, and I'm quite busy with other IRL stuff, so this isn't something I'm concerned about right now. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 13:38, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

== Uploading images in Bulbagarden Archives ==

Hi. I am recently contributing on Pokemon Adventures articles -- mostly with Vietnamese translation. I notice that there are missing covers for some volumes and would love to contribute by uploading/adding cover pictures of these volumes, but then Bulbagarden Archives stated that I am not an autoconfirmed user there so I cannot really do that. But since that place is a place to add pictures (it seems so to me, sorry if I am wrong), what should I do to become an autoconfirmed user there?

I've started [http://forums.bulbagarden.net/index.php?threads/question-about-a-deleted-article.219095/ a thread] on your deletion of the article I started on the Special Sun & Moon Edition Light Blue 2DS, and have mentioned the deletion as unfair. $aturn¥oshi said that I should inquire with you. - '''''[[User:LDEJRuff|LDE]][[User talk:LDEJRuff|JRuff]]''''' 16:33, 15 October 2016 (UTC)
:I saw the thread, and I don't get it. I gave you my reason for deleting the page, which based on the thread you have seen. Why do you think that was unfair? (I should note that I did appreciate the effort you put into the article, but there's a certain minimum timeliness we need for covering news.) --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 23:07, 15 October 2016 (UTC)

== Effect sections etc. ==

This is a bunch of things, but I'll try to keep this short. I would kindly ask you to answer the first question, and I would appreciate if you took some time to answer any of the others, too.
# Do you believe that it would be worth the effort/time to go through all "Effect" sections (or those of moves) in an attempt to standardize them better? (That's not a leading question!)
# I've been creating [[User:Nescientist/Effect section guideline|this]], and I believe that's what it should ''ideally'' be. (It's delibarately non-strict for some aspects, but it still seems incompatible with the current state of Effect sections sometimes.) Eridanus notified me he [[User_talk:SnorlaxMonster/Archive/7#Moves_articles|talked to you]] earlier, so if there's any go-to guy, it might be you. Do you agree?
# What's the current guidelines that are implicitly in effect? (I hope you get what I mean.)
# I intend to edit some Effect sections in the near future (if you're interested and not already aware, you could check Tiddlywinks' talk). So I've been thinking I could try to simultaneously standardize/simplify them better. If the "current guidelines" are not the "ideal" ones, which ones should I use? (I guess this question might be question 1 actually, and sneakily asks for some coordination/assistance. ''If'' there's plans/desire to change "current" to "ideal" for move effects, now might be a good opportunity.)

Additionally, while I'm here, could I ask you to possibly reply [[Bulbapedia talk:Project ItemDex#Item template inclusion|over here]] (you're listed as a contact)? It's not a top priority, and I won't start a lengthy discussion if you just don't know, but I would like to ensure this didn't simply go unnoticed. Thanks!

== Policy question regarding mid-generation egg move parent updates on Pokémon pages ==

Recently, an edit was made on {{p|Alomomola}} that (correctly) added Corsola as a possible parent to pass Endure. Corsola could not learn Endure by level up until B2W2, but by checking Alomomola's Gen V learnset page, I saw that Corsola was not listed as a possible parent there, nor is it listed in the Gen V learnset page of most other Pokémon it could pass its 'new' B2W2 moves to. A similar situation arose with ORAS, where many Pokémon became new potential parents of some moves, but only some pages added them. As you know, the move pages have split columns to better note things like this, but the by breeding sections on the species pages do not. Since I couldn't find information on the correct way to handle this, and because I'd like to help keep things consistent, I'd like to ask if you know what the correct way is (either including the new parents, not including them, or something else)? Thanks! [[User:VioletPumpkin|VioletPumpkin]] ([[User talk:VioletPumpkin|talk]]) 16:57, 16 October 2016 (UTC)

== Moves that power up ==

Could you align the category's wording and the moves that are in that category (one way or the other)? You may or may not be aware, but doubling in damage is not ''exactly'' doubling in power. And you may or may not be aware of [[User:Nescientist/Damage|this]], where I've also been collecting info like that. If I knew what the deal was, I'd be willing to help (also see the above section). [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 11:33, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
:Could you go through and correct the wordings of appropriate moves to either "power" or "damage"? (Or just pick one, as you seem to be suggesting I do.) You're clearly much more familiar with the distinction than I am. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 11:59, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
::The wording you just added was fine. (And I plan to go through all of them at some point.) It's just that the category "Moves that power up" currently says they "increase in base power". I was wondering if that wording should be changed, or whether the moves that actually double ''in damage'' should be in another category or something. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 12:07, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
:::If the moves are more accurately described as ''increasing in damage'' than ''increasing in power'', then please change that; I don't know which it is. If you know which applies for each move, then I think splitting the category into those two would be reasonable. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 12:40, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
::::Ok, thanks, then let's stick to "Moves that power up" only including moves that are most accurately described as increasing in power; I will edit your additions where appropiate. For those moves that most accurately increase in damage, I believe Tiddlywinks might have had something in mind for the future, so I will not create a new category for now. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 14:26, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
:::::Keep in mind that there were already moves in "Moves that power up" that were equivalent to the moves I added, such as {{m|Gust}} and {{m|Twister}}.
:::::I don't get why you're categorizing {{m|Stored Power}} as both variable power and a move that powers up: what is different about it to all the other moves? It's the only move in the "Moves with variable power" category that has a fixed power (i.e. not — in-game).
:::::I think you may as well categorize them now, so we don't have to go find them again later whenever Tiddlywinks wants to make his new category. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 15:27, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
::::::Ah, that's what made you add it to the others!? I don't know why Tiddlywinks added them; I presume he was just mistaken when he did (as he ''explicitly'' didn't add Earthquake). I didn't see them when I checked; I will remove those.
::::::For Stored Power, Tiddlywinks might have added "Moves with variable power" for a technical reason: it's a trigger that modifies its ''power'' (see [http://www.smogon.com/bw/articles/bw_complete_damage_formula here]). You added the "powers up" because it gets greater than advertised. I've kinda said to Tiddlywinks that I'd prefer to go that label-route; but I also don't like to ''undo'' what others have done without their consent (if it's a debatable thing).
::::::For the category, I'm gonna create it once I can come up with an idea for its name. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 16:20, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
:::::::Now I recall/know: Tiddlywinks wasn't in error, Gust and Twister apparently technically ''do'' work differently than Earthquake etc. I've reworded their prose. (They work like Earthquake, Magnitude, Surf and Whirlpool have worked in the past; I edited their prose as well and also added them to the category.)
:::::::And on Stored Power, you were right; if Gust isn't variable power, neither is Stored Power.
:::::::And if it's ok, I would like to wait for the category until I/we get to more/all moves; for now, it's just Earthquake, Magnitude, Surf and Whirlpool, and the complete list of "increases damage (directly)" is on my user page already (well, hopefully). [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 21:38, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
::::::::{{m|Stored Power}} is not (or was not, I'll go back to it in a moment) the only move in {{cat|Moves that have variable power}} with a numeric power value, {{m|Water Spout}} has it as well and would probably be a terrible fit for moves that "power up". IMO, moves that power up should basically be something that's either "X" power (normally) or "X*mult" power (in most cases *2, but the multiplier itself should not really ''vary''). I consider moves like {{m|Rollout}} and {{m|Fury Cutter}} close enough because they "power up" with successive uses, building very steadily/reliably. Stored Power's power '''varies''' based on however many stat stages the target has. You could use Stored Power for the first time and you might get its base power or its base power times 2 or 3 or 43; to me, that's very much "variable". Stored Power does not at all fit an image of a move that's "powering up" IMO. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 22:46, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
:::::::::I forgot, but it seems you (SnorlaxMonster) also wanted to sort out these categories "neatly" so you could use them on {{a|Forewarn}}. If it weren't for {{m|Eruption}} and Water Spout, I'd be happy to agree with you, but it's ''very'' hard to reasonably exclude them from a category for "variable power". I was a little unhappy that it couldn't be that neat myself, but I also consider it more valuable to actually have a place where the moves that can truly have varying power can all be found together. I think if we want a category for only physical/special moves with "—" for power, that should perhaps be something like ''Moves that do not have a fixed power''. On the other hand, though, if the table on Forewarn is going to list all the applicable moves anyway, then linking to a category/categories is probably kind of pointless anyway; you can just describe them as "Moves that have a power of '—'" without actually losing anything vital. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 23:50, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
::::::::::There was another reason (strange factor); had I known, I wouldn't have removed it. Anyway, just focusing on Stored Power, I still feel like "higher than the label says" might be "powered up" (and it uses ''the user's'' stat stages). Unless I'm mistaken, that's the case for all moves that power up, but not for any other move. Unless they're meant to be mutually exclusive, I would suggest we include both.
::::::::::The new power page looks splendid! (No, really!) Unless someone's faster, I would be taking care of Gen VI Abilities and moves within the next days. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 01:09, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
:::::::::::What I basically meant the "power up" category for was for moves that have a binary condition: multiplier or none. The core of these is very much the things like {{m|Pursuit}}, {{m|Acrobatics}}, {{m|Smelling Salts}}. Rollout and Fury Cutter are a moderate extension therefrom. But Stored Power is very different from these. And "variable power" is basically "the rest".
:::::::::::And it really should be one category or the other. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 01:39, 21 October 2016 (UTC)
::::::::::::I think the only reasonable way to divide moves between "powering up"/"powering down" and "having variable power" is to split based on whether or not the move has a fixed base power. Anything else and we're getting too subjective. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 17:18, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
{{indent}}I think there's ''something'' valuable in that "subjectivity" that that strict division doesn't allow for. (In part, like I said before, the division you want is really better described like "moves without a fixed power". "Variable" inherently ''invites'' subjective judgement. Better to use something less ambiguous if that's what you really want.) {{m|Magnitude}} is a very interesting case: it normally has variable power, but can also receive a 2x modifier, so a strict division between the current categories wouldn't allow both effects to be noted.

I'll propose this instead: Moves that power up should be a category '''only''' for moves ''exactly'' like {{m|Pursuit}} and {{m|Acrobatics}}: they double in power under a specific condition and never go any higher (i.e., no Rollout/Fury Cutter, no Echoed Voice, no Pledges). (Maybe it would be called something else too, if it's going to be so strictly defined.) Then, ''everything'' else goes under "Moves with variable power", and "Moves that power up" is categorized under that as well. The only possible hitch here is, it may be weird if Magnitude is categorized both as having "variable power" and "powering up", if powering up is itself a subclass of variable power. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 17:49, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
:Wouldn't a category with Pursuit but without the Pledges be pointless?
:I think we only really need the {{tt|categories|I think we don't actually have to have multiple ones, but we should anyway}} for the [[power]] page. In my opinion, "Power up" should be meant to be for those that have a "standard" case but can power up, "variable"/"{{tt|varying|probably better, taken from Magnitude description — it's weird to have "Moves that have variable power" listed under "Variable-power moves"}}" (an unrelated category) for those that do not. How to define what a standard case is in an objective manner is tricky (on the other hand, we do not ''need'' to define that strictly, I guess).
:In my mind, moves with multiple standard cases ({{m|Magnitude}}, {{m|Present}}) and those with a continuous scale ({{m|Eruption}}, {{m|Reversal}}, {{m|Crush Grip}}) are "varying" (that's some kind of definition already, I guess). {{m|Rollout}} and {{m|Magnitude}} should be in both. For {{m|Punishment}}, {{m|Spit Up}} and {{m|Stored Power}}, I don't really care — they could be in either, or both.

== Parental Bond Information ==

So, I tested out how Parental Bond works in the main series games, in Generation VI specifically. I tested to see if it did or did not work with moves with a charging turn such as Fly and Solar Beam, via Double Battles, and found that they do not synergize.

==Game Locations==
Something that has been bugging me is the [[Regional variant]] and how this affects the Game locations area of the pages for the Pokémon who have Alola variants and how I think they need minor improvements to help make it easier for people to understand that information on finding that Pokémon is not for the original version, but for the Alola version which would therefore require trade. The biggest issue regards the original Raichu, Exeggutor, and Marowak as none of them can be found without trading as it is impossible evolve into those forms in Sun and Moon.

== New pages notability ==

I was wondering, imagine some very abstract Bulbapedia editor is dreaming of (high-quality) mainspace articles on subjects such as
* Nebby,
* Aura (game mechanic, the UB and Totem thing),
* Confusion (status condition; just imagine there'd be a whole lotta details),
* Affection (may be a possibility to intersect Amie and Refresh),
* Template:ZMoveInfobox (in a similar vein to {{de|Perfektes Pika-Projektil|how the German wiki handles that}}),
* Target,
* anything, in general/by extension,
and that they're also able and willing to provide at least one of that, but they'd like to avoid putting in work for articles that turn out to be either unnotable or userspace endlessly, what would they be supposed to do? Asking for a friend, of course. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 12:29, 17 December 2016 (UTC)
:Normally, if there's a topic of questionably notability, I like to build it in the userspace to establish notability (although I do have a lot of pages that are intended for mainspace but have sat in my userspace for ages). If you can build a detailed page in the userspace that's not just full of fluff and within scope (i.e. related to Pokémon), it's unlikely to get rejected. (Fun fact: Confusion is on a list of page ideas on a post-it note that has sat next to my desktop approximately since [[Talk:Status condition#Each major status ailment in its own article?|we gave status conditions their own pages back in 2010/2011]].) If you want to make sure your userspace page you think should be mainspaced doesn't get forgotten, it's a good idea to poke a staff member (feel free to come to me with this kind of thing, although depending on the topic you might be more successful by asking the appropriate Editorial Board member). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 12:45, 17 December 2016 (UTC)
::Thanks. While I do understand that, for Aura for example, I'm not 100% sure it is notable myself. That's a case where someone should do research quite a bit, which is a potential waste of time. And for others one might not be able to judge how notable it ''turns out to be'' beforehand. And even if ''I'' think it turned out to be notable, is there some way I can ensure the EB thinks the same and it wasn't all a waste of time (I'm likely biased if I invested time and effort)?
::So, in case of doubt, I can ask an appropriate staff member beforehand, on a case by case basis, and that staff member then might be able to guarantee that, if the article is of decent quality, it ''will'' get mainspaced?

:::Normally, if a page requires a lot of research but isn't notable, then the information would simply be placed on other pages, so it wouldn't be entirely a waste.
:::You can certainly ask beforehand, but if they're unsure, what's typically going to happen is the staff member will tell you to create a draft to show how such a page could look. For example, I really don't see what content you could even have on an "Aura" page, so right now I don't think it's notable, but if you went and did a lot of research and actually made a page of a decent length, you could convince me it is.
:::For my personal opinions on your list:
:::*Nebby: would certainly be notable
:::*Aura: Convince me there is actually content that would be on this page. I can imagine a list of the auras each Totem Pokémon/Ultra Beast has, but I don't really know what else there would be.
:::*Confusion: As I mentioned earlier, I certainly think there's enough information there for a page.
:::*Affection: I was the one who [[Talk:Pokémon-Amie#Affection split|nominated the split]] last year, but since it only applied to Amie it didn't happen. Now that it's some shared stat between Amie and Refresh I think there is more of an argument, but the same could be said about of lot of the mechanics of both minigames.
:::*Template:ZMoveInfobox: I think Z-Moves are probably fine using the same infobox as other moves for now.
:::*Target: Assuming this refers to attack targets, I think a page detailing the game mechanics of targeting would be interesting, although I believe the official term for possible targets is "range" whereas "target" is specifically the Pokémon chosen. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 13:34, 17 December 2016 (UTC)
::::Thanks!
::::*For Aura, I think there wouldn't be a lot information, but we do seem to have independent articles for virtually all other {{cat|game mechanics}} (as far as I know, at least). I'm not trying to convice you, though (and I'm not willing to do research atm), but I had imagined it ''might'' (ideally) be a nice page being linked to.
::::*For Z-Moves, I don't like how messy the type-specific Z-Moves' templates look like, with half the template basically just confusing readers, screaming "READ THE TEXT!" instead of helping.
::::*For target/range, I'd imagined that page to be about both what you select '''and''' what you actually hit/affect, and to differentiate/explain a little.

There's also stuff like {{a|Leaf Guard}} to consider, which prevent the Pokémon becoming drowsy due to Yawn. Despite that concern, I don't really have an alternative name beyond "status".

== Other wiki websites ==

You have listed other Nintndo wikis in your userspace. Do you contribute to those wikis as much as you contribute here? If ''so'', then you are '''the ultimate wiki contributor'''.

(also how do you change text color and change colors in your name?) --[[User:PersonThatReallyLikesPokemon|PersonThatReallyLikesPokemon]] ([[User talk:PersonThatReallyLikesPokemon|talk]]) 10:55, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
:No, I do not contribute to the other wikis I link to as much as Bulbapedia. Yu-Gi-Oh! Wikia is the only wiki on which I have activity comparable to my activity on Bulbapedia.
:If you want to change your signature, you can do so at [[Special:Preferences]]. If you want to change the color, you'll need to check the "Treat the above as wikicode" box. If you want to know how to add colors, you're free to look at the code of my signature, which you can do by viewing the edit window on any talk page that my signature is on (including this one).
:Also, there's no need to make headers bold and italic. As long as you mark them as headers (using the equals signs, which creating a new section automatically does), the software will automatically bold them for you. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 11:24, 26 December 2016 (UTC)

== Increased priority ==

I thought I'd check this with you before I edit multiple pages all of which you might want to edit afterwards. I'd like to improve the priority moves' wording, they seem to be pretty Gen I centric, and have likely carried over to where they don't fit. Assuming we want to be this specific at individual move pages (which is not what I'd personally be going for), I suggest:
Quick Attack inflicts damage, and is an increased [[priority]] move. If no other Pokémon uses an increased priority move during the turn Quick Attack is used, Quick Attack will go first regardless of the user's {{stat|Speed}}. If multiple Pokémon use a move with an increased priority of +1 during the same turn, their move order will be determined normally.
I have no idea what that other paragraph with sleep and freeze is supposed to say. Do you know? (I'm inclined to believe it's only for Gen I, and also not important?) [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 13:37, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
:I think most of the explanation can be left on the priority page. Maybe even just:
Quick Attack inflicts damage. It has a [[priority]] of +1, so is used before all moves that do not have increased priority.
:I remember reading about that sleep/freeze thing for Gen I recently, actually. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvk_8yTyscU Here's a video explaining it.] From Gen II onward, you can actually select moves while asleep/frozen, so you move at the priority of the selected move rather than the last selected move. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 13:56, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
::Yes, great, that's what I'd personally be going for; so that's what I'll do then. I'll remove virtually everything but a link to priority, and that extra paragraph at Quick Attack. The sleep/freeze thing was what I had in mind, but because that was on all priority moves (not just Quick Attack), I thought I might've missed something. Thank you!

== Can you please add [[Thousand Arrows]] to [[Template:TypeEffectiveness]]? ==

On [[Oricorio]]'s page:

If Gravity is in effect, this Pokémon is given an Iron Ball or a Ring Target, or it is affected by Smack Down or Ingrain, the effectiveness of Ground-type moves is 2×.

Thousand Arrows would also break this rule.[[User:Pumpkinking0192]] suggests changing the whole thing to if the Pokemon is [[grounded]]. Anyway, can you please update this? [[User:Unowninator|Unowninator]] ([[User talk:Unowninator|talk]]) 17:06, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

[http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Wela_Volcano_Park&diff=2572703&oldid=2572700]

Can you direct me to the guideline where ''The italics is supposed to be the translation of the Japanese name'' is laid out? As I mentioned in my edit summary, I have been unable to find it. [[BP:MOS]] doesn't appear to say anything like that.

''The Hepburn romanization is not particularly useful for anyone'' also doesn't appear to be mentioned there, and as far as I can tell it simply is not true. This is an English-language wiki that does not appear to assume Japanese literacy on the part of its readers, so the Japanese text without a romanization is illegible to our readers and therefore practically useless (and depending on encoding might not even display properly, although I have never had this problem myself). There's actually a control for this -- why do we give the HP and RR for the Chinese and Korean names, respectively, at the bottom of the article? The only difference is that those languages aren't relevant to the topic except as random trivia.

Sorry to bother you, but I'm having trouble with {{u|Force Fire}}, who refuses to listen to what I'm trying to say and instead is making counterarguments for something completely different. I've tried to remove a couple of blatantly out-of-date trivia points on [[Flying (type)]] that haven't been true for three to six years, but Force Fire's counterarguments are all about whether the outdatedness is visible in the tables or not.

== Environment pages ==

So I've decided to [[User:Eridanus/Platform|dig back it from userspace]]{{tt|*|though the name still mentions platforms. Will probably treat Colosseum and Gale of Darkness as the same; I think Gale reuses assets for old places?}}. Did we create any naming standards for filenames of these? [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 12:45, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
:Uh, I've just been using images that were uploaded for other purposes. If there wasn't one, I uploaded the image to an external site instead. It's probably fine to upload environment images directly though. There's currently no naming scheme.
:Notice that on my page, the headers only group environments that have the same effects (other than terrain effects, but they're special). That was a very deliberate choice. On yours, they have several different effects in one.
:BTW, I notice you say that Gen VII is coming soon. I've actually got a spreadsheet detailing the whole game, but haven't put it on Bulbapedia yet (and it's missing Secret Power for everything but Ultra Space, since the only way to use it right now is via Metronome, as well as Burmy). The main reason I haven't put it up yet is due to not playing the post-game yet. However, another tricky part is that the floor mattering more than the background means I can't really lay it out the same way as I did Gen VI. I'm also working on another major set of research for Bulbapedia at the moment (that is incredibly close to finish). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 12:55, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
::Oh, okay. I haven't noticed that pattern. Should I apply them to Generation III? The mechanic works differently there (I think it's the same in Generation IV and V, but haven't checked), being based on player's tile most of the time (while Orre works the same way as Generation VI, which is why it got the labels). [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 13:03, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

::::Before moving to Generation IV, there is Mystery Dungeon, with a total of about 62 tilests (2 of which are unused), plus special tilesets for certain bosses. Besides trying to come up with some kind of name for [http://imgur.com/a/0RLjb all of them], there's the fact that some are a bit of a mess{{tt|*|Snowy and icy areas don't exactly have their own sets, as they just change Camouflage from Normal to Ice, otherwise reusing Secret Power and Nature Power from one of the other 3 sets; caves are split among two sets; and few tilesets break the pattern - an aquatic area uses one of the cave areas effects, a foresty area uses sandy areas effects and a snowy area uses 'regular' set}}. Some tilesets make a return in Explorers (like the two that went unused), so it'll probably be merged similar to what I plan to do with Orre. All were ripped and uploaded to [https://www.spriters-resource.com/game_boy_advance/pokemonmysterydungeonredrescueteam/ Spriters Resources] so I am asking what should be the picture for PMD, considering dungeons are randomized.

== SOS Battle page ==

Why did you undo my edit on the SOS Battle page concerning weather? I linked my source appropriately to a page on the OFFICIAL Pokémon website and on that page where it talks about SOS battles in different weather conditions, it explicitly says that weather called in by moves or abilities do not affect the potential SOS allies in an area. If the official Pokémon website isn't a reliable, accurate source of information, then what is? Bulbapedia is a useful resource but when the official Pokémon site directly contradicts it, the Official Pokémon site is probably the more reliable source in any given case, so I'm going to place my edit back until such a time you can link to a source about the disputed detail that proves the information on the official Pokémon website is incorrect, because there was no source given about the detail prior to my edit.

On that talk page, there is a section titled {{DL|Talk:SOS Battle|Weather ally change in v1.1}} currently discussing this matter.

== Possible Sockpuppeting ==

I recently saw that a user called Pikachu21843 had recently made an edit to a page and then I noticed that a previous user had a very similar name with an extra 8 in the name. This seems like it could be a case of sockpuppeting. Either that or the newest user copied the older users title and just added/subtracted an 8, but that seems pretty weird, so I thought I should just bring this to your attention.

== Zygarde ==

I have tried contacting ForceFire and Tiddlywinks about this but have yet to get a solid response on what to do. This is what I sent to Tiddlywinks:

"As I'm sure you know, there has been some discussion for the last year or two about Zygarde's place as a trio with Xerneas and Yveltal, and the reasoning behind why we haven't included it. ForceFire said that a main reason is "lack of game or anime evidence". When I contacted ForceFire about SS036, which I believe has evidence proving Zygarde is indeed part of the trio, he said "I have an extremely limited understanding of the Japanese language and am not going to follow what fansubs say, since they usually take liberties. But I will bring it up with the other staff members and we will discuss it". (This was when there was no English dub.) Now that there is an English dub, I tried contacting him two or three days ago, and he hasn't responded. Could you give some feedback?"

Could you either give a response on what to do, or get ForceFire to answer my question on his talk page? (He has answered the question under mine but not yet mine.) --[[User:Celadonkey|Celad]][[User_talk:Celadonkey|onkey]] 17:19, 31 January 2017 (UTC)

== Nightmare glitch ==

Some time last year, I discovered a glitch involving {{m|Nightmare}} while watching a YouTube video about {{game|Crystal}}. I've left a link to that video {{talk|here|List of glitches in Generation II}}. Basically it was along the lines of a Full Heal being used on a sleeping Pokémon being affected by Nightmare, but the effect of Nightmare continuing after that despite the Pokémon not being asleep anymore. This may need some research, but I recall it not being on the glitch list, so I thought I'd bring it to someone's attention. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 13:12, 3 February 2017 (UTC)

::I had actually done some research a few weeks ago, and adjusted the wording at Nightmare after I had examined the disassembly (and in a few moments, I'll also adjust the glitch page). It seems to happen because the item heal routine removes the Nightmare status from the player's active Pokémon regardless of who used the item (and whom it subsequently cured of sleep). [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 16:33, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
:::So in that case, if the player's Pokémon was somehow afflicted by Nightmare when the opponent uses a Full Heal or Full Restore, the player's Pokémon would also be cured on Nightmare? I'm not sure if there are any NPCs with Full Heals/Full Restores that could inflict Nightmare on your Pokémon however (even with Metronome/Mirror Move/Mimic). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 16:38, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
::::Rereading the code from my edit summary, the same seems to hold true for bad poison as well, such that when your Pokémon is badly poisoned and the opponent uses ''any status healing item'' (!), your Pokémon will become regularly poisoned.

Apparently, this is likely due to the fact that the Full Heal/Full Restore don't cure confusion or Nightmare in Generation I and the code wasn't updated properly. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 01:43, 4 February 2017 (UTC)
::::::::Well, there goes my credibility. What they say makes sense, and I agree to that. It was a month ago, and I thought I had tracked it down to that function straight from the AI, but it appears I have not (correctly). I'm sorry for the confusion.

:::::::::As demonstrated by the Nightmare glitch, Claire definitely uses Full Heals.

== The Tapu ==

A few things about the Tapu/Guardian Deities/Land Spirits:

1. We really should come up with a consensus on whether we move Guardian Deities to Tapu or not. Personally, I think we should, because "Tapu" is used frequently in game AND is used frequently by the fans.

2. We should add the Tapu (and the UBs and Type:Null/Silvally, for the matter) to the Legendary and Mythical Pokémon template. We know that all of those Pokémon are either Legendary or Mythical, and the template does not differentiate between the two.

What do you think? --[[User:Celadonkey|Celad]][[User_talk:Celadonkey|onkey]] 14:17, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

== Regarding Present ==

Just a few thoughts and questions. First, considering that the behavior of healing is different between GS, C, and Stad2, shouldn't that be noted or am I misunderstanding the wording that is being used? Secondly, I figured that it would be better to start with how Present works in GS and then go to C and Stad2. May I ask why that is incorrect? (Additionally, there is now duplicated text in the Generation II section, but what should be changed could depend on the answer to my first question.) --[[User:Super goku|Super goku]] ([[User talk:Super goku|talk]]) 08:25, 15 February 2017 (UTC)
:The page does start with how it works in Gold and Silver now; you changed it so a key part of the Gold and Silver functionality was labelled as exclusive to Crystal. Present can still heal the target in Gold and Silver (as is obvious due to the message given when the target's HP is full), but if it damages the target it uses that unusual damage formula in Gold and Silver only. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 12:20, 15 February 2017 (UTC)
::I guess I understand what went wrong. Though, I believe that I guess the way it is will have to do. Anyways, I have made a few more edits to the page based on the original source, among other things. --[[User:Super goku|Super goku]] ([[User talk:Super goku|talk]]) 07:36, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

== Follow up ==

I spoke to an admin a couple of months ago regarding a situation with user Pikablu and I was instructed to talk it out with the user, and I did so, but I don't believe what he is saying and my suspicions keep rising even after I talked with him. I keep seeing him undo posts of mine, whether it is by editing the page or actually pressing the undo button, when they shouldn't have been done and several minutes ago, I noticed that he added back on SM015 that Professor Kukui's Rockruff is revealed to know Bite and learns Rock Throw, even know I've already said in one of the edits that he never owned Rockruff and that we don't even know if it knows Bite or not. Could you please look into this. I forget what the other example were back then, but I can assure you, they were edits that were done, even though they were not meant to be there, edits that added wrong or speculative information. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 17:12, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
:He just did it again with his latest edit to the Rock Throw page.

== Pokémon GO learnsets ==

Would you mind moving your [[User:SnorlaxMonster/Pokémon GO moves]] page into the mainspace preferably under [[List of learnsets in Pokémon GO]]? I think it is mature enough at this point and the data is up-to-date. I am asking you because it is your page. This way it can be linked from the [[Pokémon GO]] page.

'''Pokémon GO''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|Pokémon GO|ポケモン　ゴー}}}}''') is a multiplayer, location-based, {{wp|augmented reality}} Pokémon game for {{wp|iOS}} and {{wp|Android (operating system)|Android}}. The game results from a collaboration between [[The Pokémon Company]], [[Nintendo]], and [[Niantic]], Inc., and is {{wp|Freemium|free to download}} with in-app purchases. It was released in most markets with access to the iOS App Store or Google Play Store on a staggered schedule starting on July 6, 2016.

The game was announced at a press conference in Japan on September 10, 2015. Field tests for Pokémon GO were held from March 29, 2016 through June 30, 2016.

The game is compatible with the [[Pokémon GO Plus]], a {{wp|Bluetooth}} device that allows players to enjoy elements of the game without looking at their phone. Compatibility with the {{wp|Apple Watch}} was added in an update on December 22, 2016.

==Blurb==
Venusaur, Charizard, Blastoise, Pikachu, and many other Pokémon have been discovered on planet Earth!

Now’s your chance to discover and capture the Pokémon all around you—so get your shoes on, step outside, and explore the world. You’ll join one of three teams and battle for the prestige and ownership of Gyms with your Pokémon at your side.

Pokémon are out there, and you need to find them. As you walk around a neighborhood, your smartphone will vibrate when there’s a Pokémon nearby. Take aim and throw a Poké Ball… You’ll have to stay alert, or it might get away!

Search far and wide for Pokémon and items

Certain Pokémon appear near their native environment—look for Water-type Pokémon by lakes and oceans. Visit PokéStops, found at interesting places like museums, art installations, historical markers, and monuments, to stock up on Poké Balls and helpful items.

Catching, hatching, evolving, and more

As you level up, you’ll be able to catch more-powerful Pokémon to complete your Pokédex. You can add to your collection by hatching Pokémon Eggs based on the distances you walk. Help your Pokémon evolve by catching many of the same kind.

Take on Gym battles and defend your Gym

As your Charmander evolves to Charmeleon and then Charizard, you can battle together to defeat a Gym and assign your Pokémon to defend it against all comers.

It’s time to get moving—your real-life adventures await!

Note: This app is free-to-play and is optimized for smartphones, not tablets.

[[File:GO Guide Catch 3.png|thumb|200px|Encountering a wild Rattata, with AR mode disabled (Prior to 0.55.0 version)]]
In the game, [[wild Pokémon]] appear on a map of the real world, with the player moving in the game by travelling in the real world. When a Pokémon is nearby, the player's phone vibrates. The player can encounter a nearby Pokémon by tapping it in the Map View. Different kinds of Pokémon will appear in different environments; for example, {{type|Water}} Pokémon are more common near water. The player is assisted by [[Professor Willow]] throughout the game. Players can login using a [[Pokémon Trainer Club]] account or a Google account.

In a wild encounter, the player attempts to capture a wild Pokémon in a [[Poké Ball]] before it runs away. Unlike in the [[core series]] games, these encounters do not involve battle. At higher levels, the player can use [[Razz Berry|Razz Berries]] to make wild Pokémon easier to catch or use more powerful Poké Balls like {{ball|Great}}s and {{ball|Ultra}}. While holding a press on a Poké Ball, a ring will appear around the Pokémon. This ring shrinks over time; once it reaches its smallest size it immediately returns to full size and the cycle repeats. If the Poké Ball is thrown while the ring is very small, the capture is more likely to be successful.

The game can be played as an {{wp|augmented reality}} (AR) game, so that in wild encounters and Gym battles the Pokémon appear to be in the real world when looking at the smart device's screen. However, it is also possible to disable this functionality, which saves battery power and is necessary on some devices which do not support AR.

Catching and hatching Pokémon earns the player [[Candy]], which can be spent to [[evolution|evolve]] or [[Power Up]] Pokémon. Each evolutionary family has its own type of Candy, so in order to evolve a Pokémon the player needs to catch a number of Pokémon from that same evolutionary family. If a player wants to get rid of a Pokémon, they can transfer it to Professor Willow, who will permanently keep the Pokémon but give 1 Candy in return. Catching and hatching Pokémon also earns the player {{OBP|Stardust|GO}}, which also needs to be expended to [[Power Up]] Pokémon; unlike Candy, there is only one type of Stardust for all Pokémon.

There are two main types of locations in Pokémon GO: [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. PokéStops and Gyms exist at pre-defined real world locations, and the player must be within range of them in order to interact with them (although they can be inspected as long as they shown up in the Map View). Players can obtain items and {{pkmn|Egg}}s by visiting PokéStops, whereas players fight for control of Gyms.

Players can customize their appearance, such as clothing and accessories, which can be shown to other players. [[Pokémon Trainer]]s collect XP from performing various actions, such as catching Pokémon, which allows them to increase their Trainer [[level]]. Leveling up rewards the player with items, and some levels unlock features of the game. Wild Pokémon encountered by Trainers at higher levels are more likely to have higher CP. The maximum number of times an individual Pokémon can be [[Power Up|Powered Up]] increases with the Trainer's level.

[[PokéCoin]]s can be obtained in-game or via in-app purchases with real money. They can be traded for extra items and other enhancements.

===Available Pokémon===
Only Pokémon introduced in [[Generation I]] and {{gen|II}} are available in the game. Evolved Pokémon can be caught in the wild, but currently {{pkmn2|Legendary}} and [[Mythical Pokémon]] have not been found in the wild.

On November 23, 2016, {{p|Ditto}} became available in the game (appearing disguised as {{p|Pidgey}}, {{p|Rattata}}, {{p|Zubat}}, or {{p|Magikarp}}).

On December 12, 2016, almost all Generation II [[baby Pokémon]] became available in the game, exclusively from {{pkmn|Eggs}} (specifically, {{p|Pichu}}, {{p|Cleffa}}, {{p|Igglybuff}}, {{p|Togepi}}, {{p|Smoochum}}, {{p|Elekid}}, and {{p|Magby}}). {{p|Togetic}} became available in the game exclusively by evolving Togepi.

On February 16, 2017, most remaining [[Generation II]] Pokémon became available in the wild. [[Generation I]] Pokémon that have [[Generation II]] [[List of Pokémon with cross-generational evolutions|cross-generational evolutions]] can now evolve into those evolutions. {{p|Togetic}} can now appear in the wild. Wild {{p|Ditto}} can appear disguised as {{p|Hoothoot}}, {{p|Sentret}}, and {{p|Yanma}} as well.

====Availability====
The player may choose from the three [[Kanto]] [[starter Pokémon]] at the beginning of the game: {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, or {{p|Squirtle}}. If the player walks away from the starter Pokémon four times, {{p|Pikachu}} will also appear as a possible starter Pokémon. These Pokémon may also be found in the wild later on.

Which Pokémon {{p|Eevee}} evolves into is normally random. However, if Eevee is nicknamed after one of the [[Eevee brothers]] before evolving, it will evolve into their respective evolution: Sparky for {{p|Jolteon}}, Rainer for {{p|Vaporeon}}, and Pyro for {{p|Flareon}}.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/4t0cpo/psa_how_to_force_your_eevee_to_evolve_into_your/?st=iqo9zize&sh=66e8bdd1</ref> If Eevee is named after two of the [[Kimono Girl]]s' anime names, it will evolve into their respective evolution: Sakura for {{p|Espeon}} and Tamao for {{p|Umbreon}}. This can only be done once per evolution.

{{p|Farfetch'd}}, {{p|Kangaskhan}}, {{p|Mr. Mime}}, {{p|Tauros}}, and {{p|Heracross}} appear to be region-exclusive, currently only being found in Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, and Central/South America respectively.

===Locations===
There are two main types of locations in Pokémon GO: [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. PokéStops and Gyms exist at pre-defined real world locations, and the player must be within range of them in order to interact with them (although they can be inspected as long as they shown up in the Map View).

The locations of PokéStops and Gyms are based on a selection of portals from the Niantic game {{wp|Ingress (video game)|Ingress}}. Until 2015, Ingress players could submit proposals for portals which subsequently had to be approved by Niantic.

PokéStops allow players to obtain items and Eggs by spinning the Photo Disc. At Gyms, players can battle to weaken those belonging to opposing teams or strengthen those belonging to their own team; a player can earn {{OBP|Stardust|GO}} and [[PokéCoin]]s by holding onto Gyms. PokéStops are much more common than Gyms.

Depending on where a player lives, PokéStops and Gyms may be very common or very sparse, tending to be more common in urban areas due to a higher population density resulting in more Ingress players in those areas. If there are no nearby PokéStops, the player can only obtain Poké Balls by leveling up or purchasing them with PokéCoins; if there are no nearby Gyms, the player can only obtain PokéCoins by purchasing them with real currency.

===Teams===
[[File:GO Professors Assistants.png|300px|thumb|The Team Leaders, Candela, Blanche and Spark.]]
After the player reaches level 5, they can choose a team by tapping a Gym. There are three teams: Team Instinct (yellow) whose leader is Spark, Team Mystic (blue) whose leader is Blanche, and Team Valor (red) whose leader is Candela. A Gym can only be controlled by one team at a time. If a Gym is controlled by the player's team, they can train at it and add one of their own Pokémon to defend it. If a Gym is controlled by a rival team, the player can battle it to decrease its Prestige; when a Gym's Prestige reaches zero, any nearby player can claim it for their own team.

Pokémon Appraisal, added in version 0.35.0 (labelled version 1.5.0 on the iOS App Store), has the chosen Team's leader detail a Pokémon's stats much like a [[stats judge]] in the core series. They describe how good the Pokémon would be in a battle, which of its three stats is its highest, and how good its stats are overall. They will also note if the Pokémon's height or weight is particularly far from the average listed in the Pokédex.

===PokéCoins===
[[File:PokéCoin.png|thumb|100px|A PokéCoin]]
{{main|PokéCoin}}
PokéCoins are the in-app currency used in Pokémon GO. There are two ways of obtaining PokéCoins: the {{OBP|Gym|GO}} Defender bonus or by purchasing them with real money.

To obtain the Defender bonus, the player must open the Shop menu and tap the shield icon while they have a Pokémon in at least one Gym. They will earn {{OBP|Stardust|GO}} and 10 PokéCoins for each Gym they currently hold, being able to obtain this bonus once every 21 hours.

===Experience===
{{main|Experience#Pokémon GO|Experience → Pokémon GO}}
In Pokémon GO, the player earns experience (abbreviated XP), rather than the Pokémon. As the player gains experience they gain levels. Leveling up awards the player with items, and certain levels unlock particular items. After reaching level 5, the player can choose a team, which allows them to use {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. As the player's level increases, their Pokémon are able to achieve a higher Combat Power as the player powers them up.

===Eggs===
[[File:GO Egg 2 km.png|thumb|150px|A 2 km egg in Pokémon GO (originally used for Eggs of all distances)]]
{{main|Pokémon Egg#Pokémon GO|Pokémon Egg → Pokémon GO}}
The player can obtain Eggs at [[PokéStop]]s. An Egg will hatch after traveling a certain distance while the Egg is in an incubator. Three Egg distances are possible: 2 km, 5 km, and 10 km. Each species has a set Egg distance and can only hatch from Eggs with this distance.

===Buddy===
By assigning a Buddy Pokémon, the player can get additional candies for that species of Pokémon as it walks. Depending on the species, one can get candies every 1 km, 3 km or 5 km walked. One can only have one Buddy at a time, and by changing the Buddy the progress made is lost, but the candies earned are kept.

===Medals===
{{main|Medal#Pokémon GO|Medal → Pokémon GO}}
The game has challenges that award [[Medal#Pokémon GO|medals]] upon completion. Medals can be viewed from a player's profile.

==Compatibility==
Pokémon GO requires an internet connection ({{wp|Wi-Fi}}, {{wp|3G}} or {{wp|4G}}) and GPS/location services. According to the official support site, the game can be played on:<ref>[https://support.pokemongo.nianticlabs.com/hc/en-us/articles/221958248-Supported-devices Supported devices – Pokémon GO]</ref>
* Android devices: {{wp|Android KitKat|Android 4.4}}+ ({{wp|Rooting (Android OS)|rooted}} devices are not supported), preferred resolution of 720×1280 pixels (not optimized for tablet)

However, the game is also playable on some iOS and Android devices that are not officially supported.

==Connectivity==
Pokémon GO currently has no connectivity with other Pokémon games. However, [[Junichi Masuda]] has stated that the developers plan to add connectivity with the [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|next entry]] in the [[core series]] Pokémon games.<ref>[https://youtu.be/qqbsdqjgj-k?t=29m16s Pokémon GO - Demonstration - Nintendo E3 2016 (YouTube)]</ref><ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20160715175300/http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/news-from-the-pokemon-go-announcement/ News From the Pokémon GO Announcement - Pokemon.com (archived July 15, 2016)]</ref>

==Partnerships==
{{incomplete|section|Partnerships in Japan}}
Due to the popularity of Pokémon GO, the game has partnered with several other companies to offer special promotions. These partnerships often involve sponsored locations, wherein stores affiliated with the partner company become [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s; sponsored locations do not appear in the game for players under the age of 13.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Starbucks}} in the United States. Starting December 8, 2016, 7,800 company-operated Starbucks stores in the United States have been made into PokéStops and Gyms. Additionally, Starbucks is selling a special-edition Pokémon GO Frappuccino as part of this partnership; the Pokémon GO Frappuccino starts with a Vanilla Bean {{wp|Frappuccino}} blended beverage and raspberry syrup blended with freeze-dried whole blackberries and topped with whipped cream.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Sprint Corporation|Sprint}} in the United States. Starting December 7, 2016, 10,500 Sprint, {{wp|Boost Mobile}}, and Sprint at {{wp|RadioShack|Radioshack}} stores in the United States are becoming PokéStops and Gyms. Sprint locations also feature in-store charging stations to allow Pokémon GO players to charge their devices.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Jio|Reliance Jio Infocomm}} (which operates under the name Jio) in India. Starting December 13, 2016, nearly 3,000 Jio stores (thousands of {{wp|Reliance Digital}} stores according to Jio's press release) and select partner premises in India will become PokéStops or Gyms in the Pokémon GO, as well as offering charging stations for players. On Jio's social messaging app, JioChat, Pokémon players have access to an exclusive Pokémon GO channel to allow them to collaborate and be part of a community of players with daily tips, contests, clues, and special events. During Jio's "Happy New Year" offer, Jio {{wp|Subscriber identity module|SIM}} customers will be able to download and play Pokémon GO without incurring data charges, like any other apps and content, until March 31, 2017.

==Development==
The game was conceived by John Hanke after the development of Niantic's Ingress. It was decided that a game based on Pokémon would be a good choice, due to its focus on collecting the titular creatures. Hanke brought the idea to the Pokémon Company and talked with Mr. Isihara. Development began. Junichi Masuda worked with Niantic on the game's development.<ref>''Game Informer #81: Pokénomenon''</ref>

An Ingress Report released on September 10, 2015, the day of the game's announcement, stated that a closed beta would occur during Northern Hemisphere winter 2015 and that the game would be released in early 2016.<ref name="IngressReport">[https://youtu.be/HMsM1nzWiYw?t=2m22s INGRESS REPORT - Begin New Journey - Raw Feed September 10 2015]</ref> However, no beta testing occurred during 2015.<ref>[https://archive.is/0noAj Pokémon GO - Pokemon.com (archived February 7, 2016)]</ref><ref>[http://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2016/01/160108_at01.html 『Pokémon GO』のベータテストについて｜ポケットモンスターオフィシャルサイト]</ref>

Field tests were held in Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and the United States prior to the game's public release. Selected applicants were given the opportunity to test the game.
* Japan: held from March 29 to June 30, 2016, announced on March 3, 2016<ref>[https://archive.is/5731W Pokémon GO - Pokemon.com (archived March 3, 2016)]</ref><ref>[https://www.nianticlabs.com/blog/pokemon-fieldtest/ Pokémon GO field testing will begin in Japan - Niantic, Inc.]</ref>
* Australia and New Zealand: held from April 25 to June 30, 2016, announced on April 7, 2016<ref>[https://www.nianticlabs.com/blog/pokemon-fieldtest-au-nz/ Pokémon GO field testing expands to Australia and New Zealand - Niantic, Inc.]</ref>
* United States: held from May 25 to June 30, 2016, announced on May 16, 2016<ref>[https://www.nianticlabs.com/blog/pokemon-fieldtest-us/ Pokémon GO field testing expands to the United States - Niantic, Inc.]</ref>

A session at the {{wp|Game Developers Conference}} featuring the game [[n:Pokémon GO to be discussed at Game Developers Conference|was intended to be held]] by Niantic CEO John Hanke on March 14, 2016, but was later cancelled due to Niantic preparing the game for beta testing and launch.<ref>[http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2016/03/03/pokemon-go-gdc-presentation-canceled.aspx Pokémon Go GDC Presentation Canceled - www.GameInformer.com]</ref>

Unlike previous Pokémon games for mobile devices, Pokémon GO was released on a staggered schedule, releasing initially to only to a few select countries. After its initial release on July 6, 2016, additional releases [[n:Niantic puts Pokémon GO's international rollout on hold|were put on hold]] due to server issues, but resumed on July 13, 2016, with the app's [[n:Pokémon GO now available in Germany|release in Germany]]. France was supposed to receive the app alongside other European countries, but the official release in the country was postponed due to the {{wp|2016 Nice attack}}.<ref>[http://fr.ign.com/pokemon-go-iphone/15934/news/pokemon-go-the-pokemon-company-confirme-le-report-francais Pokémon GO : The Pokémon Company confirme le report français]</ref>

In [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]], Medals are given by Mr. Medal in the [[Pokémon Center]] when talking to him after meeting their requirements, and are stored in the {{key|V|Medal Box}}. Mr. Medal will only appear when the player has unclaimed Medals they have achieved. There are 255 Medals in all, along with Hint Medals.

In [[Pokémon X and Y|Pokémon X, Y]], {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire}}, Medals were a part of the [[Pokémon Global Link]] rather than in-game items. When the player performed a [[Game Sync]], any achieved Medals were automatically unlocked.

Due to the [[Pokémon_Global_Link#Closure_2|closure]] of the Generation VI Pokémon Global Link on November 1, 2016, these Medals can no longer be earned.

Medals in Pokémon Picross are rewards for completing specific requirements in-game.

===Pokémon GO===
In [[Pokémon GO]], there are a number of medals that the player can earn. Each potential medal can be earned at several different ranks. With the exception of medals named after [[region]]s, the medals are all named after {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}}es.

From October 10, 2016 onward, the type-specific medals provide capture bonuses when attempting to catch Pokémon of that type. Bronze medals provide +1, Silver medals provide +2, Gold medals provide +3. If a Pokémon has two types, the bonus is the average of the medals for each of its types.

[[File:ExpGraphLv100.png|300px|thumb|A graph of the experience required for a Pokémon to be a certain level, color-coded by experience types. Erratic is '''black''', Fast is '''{{color|008000|green}}''', Medium Fast is '''{{color|FFD700|yellow}}''', Medium Slow is '''{{color|609|purple}}''', Slow is '''{{color|740|brown}}''', and Fluctuating is '''{{color|00F|blue}}'''.]]
[[File:ExpToLevelCubed.png|thumb|300px|The same graph, scaled by the cube of the level.]]
[[File:ExpToNextLevel.png|300px|thumb|Graph showing experience needed to gain a single level, for each level up to 100. The nature of the Erratic and Fluctuating curves can be seen more clearly here.]]

The amount of '''experience''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|経験|けいけん}}''' ''experience'') an individual Pokémon has is an indication of how much it has battled. In the games, it is quantified as '''Experience Points''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|経験値|けいけんち}}''' ''Experience Points''), which a Pokémon can gain in {{pkmn|battle}} by defeating an opponent Pokémon without fainting. After a certain amount of experience points have been gained, a Pokémon will grow a [[level]], all the way up to level 100, where a Pokémon will no longer gain experience (in the [[Generation I|first]] [[Generation II|two]] generations, the game will still erroneously state that it has gained experience points).

==In the core series==
In the [[core series]] games, experience is normally gained by all Pokémon who have been sent out against an opponent's Pokémon, divided evenly among them. Experience is gained upon the opponent Pokémon [[fainting]], and its amount is calculated as a function of the fainted Pokémon's level, as well as species. [[Experience-affecting item|Certain items]] can affect the distribution and amount of experience gained, as can other conditions, such as whether or not the Pokémon was caught by another person or in another language of the game.

===Relation to level===
The amount of experience points a Pokémon has is tied directly to its level. Though the amount varies depending on species, always remaining consistent throughout an [[List of Pokémon by evolution family|evolutionary family]], a given amount of experience points will always set a Pokémon at the corresponding level. [[Wild Pokémon]] of any level will always have the base amount of experience required to reach that level when caught, as will Pokémon hatched from Eggs.

All Pokémon fall into one of six experience groups, four of which were introduced in [[Generation I]], and two of which were introduced in [[Generation III]]. The main difference between these experience groups is the amount of experience points required to reach level 100, and thus, the amount required to reach each level. All those introduced in Generation I are only {{wp|polynomial}} {{wp|Function (mathematics)|functions}} of the level, while the two introduced in Generation III operate as {{wp|piecewise}} functions, changing the equation depending on the level range.

The original four functions, the ones for the Fast, Medium Fast, Medium Slow, and Slow groups, are {{wp|cubic}}. The two that were added in Generation III (Erratic and Fluctuating), however, are made by multiplying the cube of the level by a linear function of it (a negative slope one in the case of Erratic, going from 2 to 0.6; and a positive slope one in the case of Fluctuating, going from 0.48 to 1.64), making those functions effectively {{wp|quartic}}.

Though the various experience groups' level-up rates can be calculated using an equation, a {{wp|lookup table}} is used in the games after Generation II to prevent game slowdown and a glitch associated with the Medium Slow formula.

In [[Generation V]] only, the amount of experience gained is dependent on both Pokémon's levels: the lower the victor's level is compared to the defeated Pokémon, the more experience points the victor will gain.

====Erratic====
[[File:Expcalc erratic.png|thumb|390px|The equation for the Erratic experience group. At levels 50, 68, and 98, both formulas return equal values.]]
The Erratic experience group, one of the two groups introduced in Generation III, features the lowest level 100 value for experience, at only 600,000 points. Nearly all Pokémon in this experience group were introduced in Generation III as well, with most of them being {{t|Bug}} or {{t|Water}} types.

Receiving its name due to the highly erratic experience point requirement to reach the next level from level 68 to level 98, Pokémon in this group level up rather slowly in their lower levels, requiring the most experience to grow from level 1 to level 10 (1800 as compared to 1250 for Slow, the next highest requirement), and increase the rate of their growth at higher levels, requiring the least experience to grow from level 90 to level 100 (108654 points as compared to 216800 for Fast, the next lowest requirement).

Due to the erraticness of this function, it actually takes fewer experience points to go from level 99 to 100 than it does to go from level 69 to 70.

For a list of all Pokémon in this group, see {{cat|Pokémon in the Erratic experience group}}.


====Fast====
[[File:Expcalc fast.png|thumb|134px|The equation for the Fast experience group]]
The Fast experience group is one of the four experience groups introduced in Generation I, with 800,000 experience points making for a level 100 Pokémon. Many {{t|Normal}}- and {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon are in this group.

For a list of all Pokémon in this group, see {{cat|Pokémon in the Fast experience group}}.

====Medium Fast====
[[File:Expcalc mfast.png|thumb|117px|The equation for the Medium Fast experience group]]
Among all Pokémon, the most plentiful experience group is the Medium Fast group, which was also introduced in Generation I. Requiring Pokémon to have an even 1,000,000 experience points to be at level 100, it is by far the most average of the experience groups, and the one with the simplest equation: to be at a given level, any Pokémon in this group requires experience equal to that level {{wp|cube (algebra)|cubed}}. This group is also often called "cubic", due to its function being a simple cube of the level.

This experience group actually grows more slowly than the Medium Slow group up until about level 68 (level 47, if considering amount of experience required to reach the next level).

For a list of all Pokémon in this group, see {{cat|Pokémon in the Medium Fast experience group}}.

====Medium Slow====
[[File:Expcalc mslow.png|thumb|358px|The equation for the Medium Slow experience group]]
The Medium Slow experience group, like the Medium Fast group, accounts for many Pokémon, containing the second largest amount of them. This group also contains all of the [[starter Pokémon]]. Requiring 1,059,860 experience points for a Pokémon to reach level 100, it is the only experience group whose level 100 experience is not evenly divisible by 10,000.

The {{wp|inflection point}} for this polynomial function is actually at level 4, not level 0. Thus, it actually takes more experience points to go from level 2 to 3 than it does to go from 4 to 5. In Generations I and II, this mislocation of the inflection point causes the [[#Experience underflow glitch|experience underflow glitch]]. For a list of all Pokémon in this group, see {{cat|Pokémon in the Medium Slow experience group}}.

====Slow====
[[File:Expcalc slow.png|thumb|134px|The equation for the Slow experience group.]]
The final of the four Generation I experience groups, the Slow group features the highest amount of experience required for a Pokémon to reach level 100 in Generations I and II, and the second highest amount since then. Containing many rare, powerful, and [[Legendary Pokémon]], Pokémon in this group are typically very hard to raise; all [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]], by definition, are in this experience group. At level 100, a Pokémon in this experience group will have 1,250,000 experience points.

For a list of all Pokémon in this group, see {{cat|Pokémon in the Slow experience group}}.

====Fluctuating====
[[File:Expcalc fluctuating.png|thumb|422px|The equation for the Fluctuating experience group. At levels 15 and 36, both formulas return equal values.]]
The second experience group introduced in Generation III and a direct opposite to the Erratic group, the Fluctuating experience group contains the Pokémon which grow the slowest of all, reaching level 100 with a whopping 1,640,000 experience points. It is also, unsurprisingly, the smallest of the experience groups, containing only 14 species. Pokémon within this group require the least amount of experience to grow from level 1, needing only 540 points to reach level 10, as compared to 560 for Medium Slow, the next lowest requirement. They also require the most experience points to go from level 90 to 100—517,340 as compared to 338,750 for Slow, the next highest. Like the Erratic function, the Fluctuating group's level-up equation is calculated in a {{wp|piecewise}} fashion.

Also like the Erratic experience group, the Fluctuating group gets its name from the wildly fluctuating requirement for each level to go to the next level, from Level 36 to Level 100.

For a list of all Pokémon in this group, see {{cat|Pokémon in the Fluctuating experience group}}.

===Experience at each level===
Below is a table; on the left side of the level is the minimum number of experience points required for a Pokémon to be at that level, and the amount of experience points a Pokémon of that level will have when caught from the wild; on the right is the number of experience points required to advance from the respective level to the next level.

===Experience gain in battle===
The amount of experience that a Pokémon gives when it is defeated depends on its level and its species. The higher the level of the defeated Pokémon, the more experience points it yields. However, numerous factors can influence how much experience any individual Pokémon actually gains.

Any Pokémon that is sent into battle against an opponent will receive experience points when that opponent is defeated, provided the Pokémon is not fainted. Prior to [[Generation VI]], if only one Pokémon participates in battle, it will gain "full" experience points, but if more than one Pokémon participate in battle, each Pokémon will be allotted an even portion of the full experience. In Generation VI, however, this was changed so that all Pokémon that participate in battle receive "full" experience.

The {{DL|Experience-affecting item|Exp. Share|Exp. All}} and {{DL|Experience-affecting item|Exp. Share}} are ways for a Pokémon that does not directly participate in a battle to still gain experience from it. Prior to Generation VI, it also affects how much experience the direct participants are allotted.
* In Generation VI: if Exp. Share is turned on, any Pokémon that did not participate in battle will receive half of the "full" experience.
* In Generations {{gen|II}}-V: if a Pokémon in the player's party is holding an Exp. Share, the Pokémon that participated directly in the battle will receive half of the experience they normally would have, and any Pokémon that were holding Exp. Share will be allotted an even portion (depending on how many are holding an Exp. Share) of 50% of the "full" experience.
* In [[Generation I]]: if Exp. All is in the [[Bag]], the Pokémon that participated directly in the battle will receive half of the experience they normally would have, and every Pokémon in the player's party also receives experience equal to the amount that a battling Pokémon received (before any bonuses) divided by the number of Pokémon in the player's party (this method of calculation appears to be [[#Apparent Exp. All programming error in Generation I|an error]]).

In [[Generation V]] and [[Generation VII]], the amount of experience a Pokémon gains is also scaled depending on how its level compares to the opponent's: the higher a defeated opponent's level is compared to the "winner", the more experience points the winner will gain.

Various other factors may boost the amount of experience a Pokémon receives. These factors include:
*If the winning Pokémon is an {{pkmn2|outsider}} (was traded)
*If the player is in a Trainer battle
*If the Pokémon is holding a {{DL|Experience-affecting item|Lucky Egg}}Gen II+
*If the Pokémon has high enough [[Pokémon-Amie#Affection benefits|Affection]]Gen VI+
*If a positive Exp. Point Power ([[Entralink#List of Pass Powers|Pass Power]]Gen V or [[O-Power]]Gen VI) is active
*If the Pokémon is at or past the level where it would be able to [[evolution|evolve]] but has notGen VI
The only negative factor that may affect experience gain is a negative Exp. Point Power from the [[Entralink]] in Generation V.

From Generation VI onward, experience is also obtained after catching a [[wild Pokémon]].

====Gain formula====
{{Outdated|section|needs=additional information for Generations VI and VII}}
In the main Pokémon games, only two basic formulas have ever been used: a flat formula, where the winner's level is not taken into account, and a scaled formula, where the difference between both opponents' levels affects the amount of experience the winner receives. [[Generation V]] and {{gen|VII}} games use the scaled formula. All other generations use the flat formula, although each generation generally makes its own additions or tweaks to the previous mechanics.

The full flat and scaled formulas can be seen below on the right. Depending on the order of multiplication and where rounding down is done, these formulas may produce slightly different results than are seen in-game.

Note that if a Pokémon both participated in battle and was holding an Exp. Share—or, in Generation I, the {{DL|Experience-affecting item|Exp. Share|Exp. All}} is in the [[Bag]]—they actually receive experience both from participating in battle and from Exp. Share/Exp. All. Therefore, to arrive at their total experience gained, the formula must be evaluated both for a Pokémon that battled and for one that was holding Exp. Share, and those results must be summed. This does not apply in Generation VI, as Exp. Share works differently in those games.

In Black 2 and White 2 only, if a Pokémon would gain more than 100,000 experience at once, it instead gains exactly 100,000 experience.

=====Example (Generation II to IV)=====
An originally owned {{p|Skitty}} holding a {{DL|Experience-affecting item|Lucky Egg}} and an internationally traded {{p|Meowth}} have just defeated a Level 78 Trainer-owned {{p|Garchomp}}, with an originally owned {{p|Salamence}} in the winner's [[party]] holding an {{DL|Experience-affecting item|Exp. Share}}.

The base experience yield of a Garchomp is 218, meaning that a Level 78 Garchomp will normally yield 2429 experience points. Because the battle is a Trainer battle, this is multiplied by 1.5 to give 3643.

The Exp. Share will automatically give half the experience points to the Salamence, giving it 1821 experience points.
The Skitty gets half of the remaining experience points, with a 1.5 multiplier because of the Lucky Egg. This means that the Skitty earns 1366 experience points.

The Meowth gets half of the remaining experience points, with a 1.7 multiplier because it was internationally traded. This means that the Meowth earns 1548 experience points.

=====Example (Generation V)=====
An internationally traded, level 55 {{p|Venusaur}} has just defeated a wild, level 62 {{p|Zekrom}}.

The base experience yield of Zekrom is 306, meaning that a level 62 Zekrom will normally yield 3794 experience points, when defeated by another Pokémon at level 62. However, this Venusaur is at level 55, meaning that it will yield 4338 experience points. The constant of 1 is added, giving 4339, and the international trade multiplies this by 1.7, meaning that this Zekrom will yield a total of 7376 experience points.

====Apparent Exp. All programming error in Generation I====
In Generation I, the behavior of Exp. All seems to be coded wrong.<ref>[https://github.com/iimarckus/pokered/blob/master/engine/battle/core.asm Pokered disassembly project on GitHub]</ref> The fault is that the experience distributed (evenly among all party members) by the Exp. All, intended to be half the total experience of the whole battle, is based on the experience that ''one'' battling Pokémon received, rather than that received by ''all'' battling Pokémon. This behavior works correctly if only one Pokémon battles while the Exp. All is in the player's bag (for example, if one Pokémon out of a party of five battles, then the battler will get 50% of the experience and then all five party members will share the remaining 50%, getting another 10% of the experience each, thus in total distributing the whole of the experience). However, if multiple Pokémon are sent into battle, then the total amount of experience received will effectively be decreased (for example, if two Pokémon out of a party of five battle, then the battlers will each get 25% of the experience, but then all five party members will only share 25% instead of the remaining 50%, getting another 5% of the experience each and causing 25% of the experience to be entirely lost).

===Experience underflow glitch===
In [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II]], level 1 Pokémon in the Medium Slow group were calculated to have -54 experience points. However, due to the use of {{wp|unsigned integer}}s, the game interpreted this value as 16,777,162 experience points. If a level 1 Pokémon with negative experience points completed a battle without gaining enough experience points to reach 0 or higher, the game, attempting to determine its level based on the number of experience points it had, would consider it to be at level 100 (having gone well over the amount required to reach this level), causing it to instantaneously jump to this level.

It is due in-part to this bug that no level 1 Pokémon could be found in the wild without abusing a glitch or hacking the game in [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II]]. It is also partially for this reason that Pokémon hatched from Eggs at level 5 when Eggs were introduced in Generation II (although level 2-4 Pokémon could be found in the wild).

The glitch was fixed in [[Generation III]], which uses a lookup table, rather than a formula, to determine experience requirements (this is also why the two new functions introduced in that generation are able to be piecewise functions). Despite this, {{pkmn|Egg}}s still hatched at level 5, and the lowest level that Pokémon could be found at in the wild was still level 2. [[Generation IV]] finally featured the first instance of legitimate level 1 Pokémon, where {{pkmn|Egg}}s hatch at level 1 and level 1 Pokémon can be found in the wild.

Additionally for Generation I, any Pokémon in the Medium Slow group that was deposited in the PC at Level 1 will cause the game to [[game freeze|freeze]] upon attempting to withdraw it, causing it to be permanently stuck in the PC [[List of glitches in Generation I#Experience PC withdrawing glitch|due to a glitch]].

==In the spin-off games==
===In the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series===
{{incomplete|section}}
Pokémon may also gain experience in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]]. After a Pokémon is defeated, each member of the [[team]] will gain the full share of experience points. The base amount of experience earned is floor((Base Experience) * (Level - 1) / 10) + (Base Experience).

If a Pokémon with experience is defeated using only regular attacks, the experience gain is only half of the base value (rounded down). If at least one move was successfully used against the foe, or if the foe uses a move that targets itself or other enemy Pokémon, the experience gain is the full base value. If the qualifying attack is part of a linked move, the experience gain becomes 1.5× the base value.

As with the core series games, Pokémon acquiring enough experience points will level up. The amount needed differs from the core series games, and is defined differently for each Pokémon. The amount needed to level up is far greater in earlier games in the series. It is not currently known if Pokémon can be grouped by experience growth as in the main games.

===In the Pokémon Ranger series===
In the [[Pokémon Ranger series]], when a Pokémon is successfully captured using the Styler, the Styler will gain experience points, and a certain number of experience points will cause the Styler to level up. However, each Pokémon of the same species will yield exactly the same amount of experience points, as there is no concept of level in the Ranger games.

In [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]], certain bonuses can be applied to the experience points gained under certain conditions, such as if the capture was made using only one line, or multiple Pokémon were captured at once.

===Pokémon GO===
[[File:Pokémon GO level up.png|thumb|200px|Leveling up]]
In [[Pokémon GO]], the player earns experience (abbreviated XP), rather than the Pokémon. As the player gains experience they gain levels. Leveling up awards the player with items, and certain levels unlock particular items. After reaching level 5, the player can choose a team, which allows them to use {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s.

The player can earn experience in the following ways:

==Trivia==
* The Pokémon with the highest base experience yield is {{p|Blissey}}, with a base yield of 608. The Pokémon with the lowest base experience yield are {{p|Snivy}}, {{p|Tepig}}, and {{p|Oshawott}}, with a base yield of 28.
** Before [[Generation V]], the Pokémon with the lowest base experience yield was {{p|Magikarp}} with a yield of 20, and the Pokémon with the highest base experience yields were {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Happiny}}, {{p|Chansey}}, and {{p|Blissey}}, with a yield of 255.
* The highest possible number of experience points that can be gained in a single battle is 457,970. This can be done by defeating a level 100 {{p|Blissey}} in a Trainer battle in Black and White, using an internationally traded Pokémon at level 1 that is holding a {{DL|Experience-affecting item|Lucky Egg}}, with Exp. Point Power ↑↑↑, S or MAX active. This means that given these conditions, a Pokémon could technically advance from level 1 all the way to level 87 in a single battle, provided that it was in the Erratic experience group. 
** A Pokémon in the Fast experience group would advance to level 83.
** A Pokémon in the Medium Fast experience group would advance to level 77.
** A Pokémon in the Medium Slow experience group would advance to level 76.
** A Pokémon in the Slow experience group would advance to level 71.
** A Pokémon in the Fluctuating experience group would advance to level 69.
** Before [[Generation V]], the highest number of experience points it was possible to gain was 13,933. This could be done by defeating a level 100 {{p|Arceus}}, {{p|Happiny}}, {{p|Chansey}}, or {{p|Blissey}} in a Trainer battle, using an internationally traded Pokémon that is holding a Lucky Egg. This means that the most levels that a Pokémon could advance in a single battle is 25, if a level 1 Pokémon in the Medium Slow experience group defeated the level 100 Pokémon as mentioned above.
* The lowest possible number of experience points for a single Pokémon to obtain in a single battle is one. This can be done in Generation V by defeating a {{pkmn2|wild}} level 1 {{p|Patrat}}, {{p|Purrloin}}, or any other Pokémon with a base experience yield lower than 100, using a level 99 Pokémon.
** Before [[Generation V]], this could be done by defeating a {{pkmn2|wild}} level 1 {{p|Magikarp}} and splitting the experience points between three battling Pokémon.
* The Medium Fast experience group is the only group not to have either the highest or the lowest total experience requirement at any level, being bounded by the Slow and Fast functions. The Medium Slow group is the only one to have both the highest and the lowest total experience requirement in at least one level before level 50.
* Starting in [[Generation V]], there are [[Legendary Pokémon]] the player must capture to progress the story. Defeating these Pokémon does not award experience.
** In {{game|Black and White|s}}, defeating {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|Bl}} or {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|W}} does not yield experience, even if it is knocked out at [[Dragonspiral Tower]] due to having a full party and Boxes upon initial encounter.
** In {{g|X and Y}}, defeating {{p|Xerneas}}{{sup/6|X}} or {{p|Yveltal}}{{sup/6|Y}} at [[Team Flare Secret HQ]] does not yield experience.
** In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, defeating {{p|Rayquaza}} at [[Sky Pillar]] during the [[Delta Episode]] does not yield experience.
** In {{g|Sun and Moon}}, defeating {{p|Solgaleo}}{{sup/7|S}} or {{p|Lunala}}{{sup/7|M}} at the [[Altar of the Sunne]]{{sup/7|S}} or [[Altar of the Moone]]{{sup/7|M}} does not yield experience.
* In [[Generation I]], it is possible to receive zero experience points. This is done by having six Pokémon in the party and fighting a level 2 Pokémon with the Exp. All in the bag. When the battle ends, the experience given to the other participants will be zero.

'''Pokémon GO''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|Pokémon GO|ポケモン　ゴー}}}}''') is a multiplayer, location-based, {{wp|augmented reality}} Pokémon game for {{wp|iOS}} and {{wp|Android (operating system)|Android}}. The game results from a collaboration between [[The Pokémon Company]], [[Nintendo]], and [[Niantic]], Inc., and is {{wp|Freemium|free to download}} with in-app purchases. It was released in most markets with access to the iOS App Store or Google Play Store on a staggered schedule starting on July 6, 2016.

The game was announced at a press conference in Japan on September 10, 2015. Field tests for Pokémon GO were held from March 29, 2016 through June 30, 2016.

The game is compatible with the [[Pokémon GO Plus]], a {{wp|Bluetooth}} device that allows players to enjoy elements of the game without looking at their phone. Compatibility with the {{wp|Apple Watch}} was added in an update on December 22, 2016.

==Blurb==
Venusaur, Charizard, Blastoise, Pikachu, and many other Pokémon have been discovered on planet Earth!

Now’s your chance to discover and capture the Pokémon all around you—so get your shoes on, step outside, and explore the world. You’ll join one of three teams and battle for the prestige and ownership of Gyms with your Pokémon at your side.

Pokémon are out there, and you need to find them. As you walk around a neighborhood, your smartphone will vibrate when there’s a Pokémon nearby. Take aim and throw a Poké Ball… You’ll have to stay alert, or it might get away!

Search far and wide for Pokémon and items

Certain Pokémon appear near their native environment—look for Water-type Pokémon by lakes and oceans. Visit PokéStops, found at interesting places like museums, art installations, historical markers, and monuments, to stock up on Poké Balls and helpful items.

Catching, hatching, evolving, and more

As you level up, you’ll be able to catch more-powerful Pokémon to complete your Pokédex. You can add to your collection by hatching Pokémon Eggs based on the distances you walk. Help your Pokémon evolve by catching many of the same kind.

Take on Gym battles and defend your Gym

As your Charmander evolves to Charmeleon and then Charizard, you can battle together to defeat a Gym and assign your Pokémon to defend it against all comers.

It’s time to get moving—your real-life adventures await!

==Gameplay==
[[File:GO Guide Catch 3.png|thumb|200px|Encountering a wild Rattata, with AR mode disabled]]
In the game, [[wild Pokémon]] appear on a map of the real world, with the player moving in the game by travelling in the real world. When a Pokémon is nearby, the player's phone vibrates. The player can encounter a nearby Pokémon by tapping it in the Map View. Different kinds of Pokémon will appear in different environments; for example, {{type|Water}} Pokémon are more common near water. The player is assisted by [[Professor Willow]] throughout the game. Players can login using a [[Pokémon Trainer Club]] account or a Google account.

In a wild encounter, the player attempts to capture a wild Pokémon in a [[Poké Ball]] before it runs away. Unlike in the [[core series]] games, these encounters do not involve battle. At higher levels, the player can use [[Razz Berry|Razz Berries]] to make wild Pokémon easier to catch or use more powerful Poké Balls like {{ball|Great}}s and {{ball|Ultra}}. While holding a press on a Poké Ball, a ring will appear around the Pokémon. This ring shrinks over time; once it reaches its smallest size it immediately returns to full size and the cycle repeats. If the Poké Ball is thrown while the ring is very small, the capture is more likely to be successful.

The game can be played as an {{wp|augmented reality}} (AR) game, so that in wild encounters and Gym battles the Pokémon appear to be in the real world when looking at the smart device's screen. However, it is also possible to disable this functionality, which saves battery power and is necessary on some devices which do not support AR.

Catching and hatching Pokémon earns the player [[Candy]], which can be spent to [[evolution|evolve]] or [[Power Up]] Pokémon. Each evolutionary family has its own type of Candy ({{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Hitmonchan}} have separate Candy), so in order to evolve a Pokémon the player needs to catch a number of Pokémon from that same evolutionary family. If a player wants to get rid of a Pokémon, they can transfer it to Professor Willow, who will permanently keep the Pokémon but give 1 Candy in return. Catching and hatching Pokémon also earns the player {{OBP|Stardust|GO}}, which also needs to be expended to [[Power Up]] Pokémon; unlike Candy, there is only one type of Stardust for all Pokémon.

There are two main types of locations in Pokémon GO: [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. PokéStops and Gyms exist at pre-defined real world locations, and the player must be within range of them in order to interact with them (although they can be inspected as long as they shown up in the Map View). Players can obtain items and {{pkmn|Egg}}s by visiting PokéStops, whereas players fight for control of Gyms.

Players can customize their appearance, such as clothing and accessories, which can be shown to other players. [[Pokémon Trainer]]s collect XP from performing various actions, such as catching Pokémon, which allows them to increase their Trainer [[level]]. Leveling up rewards the player with items, and some levels unlock features of the game. Wild Pokémon encountered by Trainers at higher levels are more likely to have higher CP. The maximum number of times an individual Pokémon can be [[Power Up|Powered Up]] increases with the Trainer's level.

[[PokéCoin]]s can be obtained in-game or via in-app purchases with real money. They can be traded for extra items and other enhancements.

===Available Pokémon===
Only Pokémon introduced in [[Generation I]] and some {{gen|II}} baby Pokémon are available in the game. Evolved Pokémon can be caught in the wild, but currently {{pkmn2|Legendary}} and [[Mythical Pokémon]] have not been found in the wild. {{p|Ditto}} was not made available until November 23, 2016. Baby Pokémon were released along with a limited edition {{p|Pikachu}} with a Santa hat on December 12, 2016. Pokémon from other [[generation]]s may be made available in the future.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqbsdqjgj-k Pokémon GO - Demonstration - Nintendo E3 2016]</ref>

On February 15, 2016, The Pokémon Company announced that over 80 Pokémon from [[Generation II]] would become available with an update to be released later that week. The Generation II Pokémon shown in the advertisement were {{p|Chikorita}}, {{p|Cyndaquil}}, {{p|Totodile}}, {{p|Espeon}}, {{p|Umbreon}}, {{p|Bellossom}}, {{p|Marill}}, and {{p|Hoppip}}.

The player may choose from the three [[Kanto]] [[starter Pokémon]] at the beginning of the game: {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, or {{p|Squirtle}}. If the player walks away from the starter Pokémon four times, {{p|Pikachu}} will also appear as a possible starter Pokémon. These Pokémon may also be found in the wild later on.

Which Pokémon {{p|Eevee}} evolves into is normally random. However, if Eevee is nicknamed after one of the [[Eevee brothers]] before evolving, it will evolve into their respective evolution: Sparky for {{p|Jolteon}}, Rainer for {{p|Vaporeon}}, and Pyro for {{p|Flareon}}.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/4t0cpo/psa_how_to_force_your_eevee_to_evolve_into_your/?st=iqo9zize&sh=66e8bdd1</ref> This can only be done once per evolution.

{{p|Farfetch'd}}, {{p|Kangaskhan}}, {{p|Mr. Mime}}, and {{p|Tauros}} appear to be region-exclusive, currently only being found in Asia, Australia, Europe, and North America, respectively.

===Locations===
There are two main types of locations in Pokémon GO: [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. PokéStops and Gyms exist at pre-defined real world locations, and the player must be within range of them in order to interact with them (although they can be inspected as long as they shown up in the Map View).

The locations of PokéStops and Gyms are based on a selection of portals from the Niantic game {{wp|Ingress (video game)|Ingress}}. Until 2015, Ingress players could submit proposals for portals which subsequently had to be approved by Niantic.

PokéStops allow players to obtain items and Eggs by spinning the Photo Disc. At Gyms, players can battle to weaken those belonging to opposing teams or strengthen those belonging to their own team; a player can earn {{OBP|Stardust|GO}} and [[PokéCoin]]s by holding onto Gyms. PokéStops are much more common than Gyms.

Depending on where a player lives, PokéStops and Gyms may be very common or very sparse, tending to be more common in urban areas due to a higher population density resulting in more Ingress players in those areas. If there are no nearby PokéStops, the player can only obtain Poké Balls by leveling up or purchasing them with PokéCoins; if there are no nearby Gyms, the player can only obtain PokéCoins by purchasing them with real currency.

===Teams===
[[File:GO Professors Assistants.png|300px|thumb|The Team Leaders, Candela, Blanche and Spark.]]
After the player reaches level 5, they can choose a team by tapping a Gym. There are three teams: Team Instinct (yellow) whose leader is Spark, Team Mystic (blue) whose leader is Blanche, and Team Valor (red) whose leader is Candela. A Gym can only be controlled by one team at a time. If a Gym is controlled by the player's team, they can train at it and add one of their own Pokémon to defend it. If a Gym is controlled by a rival team, the player can battle it to decrease its Prestige; when a Gym's Prestige reaches zero, any nearby player can claim it for their own team.

Pokémon Appraisal, added in version 0.35.0 (labelled version 1.5.0 on the iOS App Store), has the chosen Team's leader detail a Pokémon's stats much like a [[stats judge]] in the core series. They describe how good the Pokémon would be in a battle, which of its three stats is its highest, and how good its stats are overall. They will also note if the Pokémon's height or weight is particularly far from the average listed in the Pokédex.

===PokéCoins===
[[File:PokéCoin.png|thumb|100px|A PokéCoin]]
{{main|PokéCoin}}
PokéCoins are the in-app currency used in Pokémon GO. There are two ways of obtaining PokéCoins: the {{OBP|Gym|GO}} Defender bonus or by purchasing them with real money.

To obtain the Defender bonus, the player must open the Shop menu and tap the shield icon while they have a Pokémon in at least one Gym. They will earn {{OBP|Stardust|GO}} and 10 PokéCoins for each Gym they currently hold, being able to obtain this bonus once every 21 hours.

===Experience===
{{main|Experience#Pokémon GO|Experience → Pokémon GO}}
In Pokémon GO, the player earns experience (abbreviated XP), rather than the Pokémon. As the player gains experience they gain levels. Leveling up awards the player with items, and certain levels unlock particular items. After reaching level 5, the player can choose a team, which allows them to use {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. As the player's level increases, their Pokémon are able to achieve a higher Combat Power as the player powers them up.

===Eggs===
[[File:GO Egg 2 km.png|thumb|150px|A 2 km egg in Pokémon GO (originally used for Eggs of all distances)]]
{{main|Pokémon Egg#Pokémon GO|Pokémon Egg → Pokémon GO}}
The player can obtain Eggs at [[PokéStop]]s. An Egg will hatch after traveling a certain distance while the Egg is in an incubator. Three Egg distances are possible: 2 km, 5 km, and 10 km. Each species has a set Egg distance and can only hatch from Eggs with this distance.

===Buddy===
By assigning a Buddy Pokémon, the player can get additional candies for that species of Pokémon as it walks. Depending on the species, one can get candies every 1 km, 3 km or 5 km walked. One can only have one Buddy at a time, and by changing the Buddy the progress made is lost, but the candies earned are kept.

===Medals===
{{main|Medal#Pokémon GO|Medal → Pokémon GO}}
The game has challenges that award [[Medal#Pokémon GO|medals]] upon completion. Medals can be viewed from a player's profile.

==Compatibility==
Pokémon GO requires an internet connection ({{wp|Wi-Fi}}, {{wp|3G}} or {{wp|4G}}) and GPS/location services. According to the official support site, the game can be played on:<ref>[https://support.pokemongo.nianticlabs.com/hc/en-us/articles/221958248-Supported-devices Supported devices – Pokémon GO]</ref>
* Android devices: {{wp|Android KitKat|Android 4.4}}+ ({{wp|Rooting (Android OS)|rooted}} devices are not supported), preferred resolution of 720×1280 pixels (not optimized for tablet)
* iOS devices: {{wp|iPhone 5}} and newer, {{wp|iOS 8}} and newer ({{wp|iOS jailbreaking|jailbroken}} devices are not supported)
** {{wp|Apple Watch}} will be supported late 2016<ref>[http://pokemongo.nianticlabs.com/en/post/headsup/ Apple Watch compatibility announcement - Niantic Labs]</ref>, with the Apple Watch's fitness tracking functions integrated into the game.

However, the game is also playable on some iOS and Android devices that are not officially supported.

==Connectivity==
Pokémon GO currently has no connectivity with other Pokémon games. However, [[Junichi Masuda]] has stated that the developers plan to add connectivity with the [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|next entry]] in the [[core series]] Pokémon games.<ref>[https://youtu.be/qqbsdqjgj-k?t=29m16s Pokémon GO - Demonstration - Nintendo E3 2016 (YouTube)]</ref><ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20160715175300/http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/news-from-the-pokemon-go-announcement/ News From the Pokémon GO Announcement - Pokemon.com (archived July 15, 2016)]</ref>

==Partnerships==
{{incomplete|needs=Partnerships in Japan}}
Due to the popularity of Pokémon GO, the game has partnered with several other companies to offer special promotions. These partnerships often involve sponsored locations, wherein stores affiliated with the partner company become [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s; sponsored locations do not appear in the game for players under the age of 13.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Starbucks}} in the United States. Starting December 8, 2016, 7,800 company-operated Starbucks stores in the United States have been made into PokéStops and Gyms. Additionally, Starbucks is selling a special-edition Pokémon GO Frappuccino as part of this partnership; the Pokémon GO Frappuccino starts with a Vanilla Bean {{wp|Frappuccino}} blended beverage and raspberry syrup blended with freeze-dried whole blackberries and topped with whipped cream.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Sprint Corporation|Sprint}} in the United States. Starting December 7, 2016, 10,500 Sprint, {{wp|Boost Mobile}} and Sprint at {{wp|RadioShack|Radioshack}} stores in the United States are becoming PokéStops and Gyms. Sprint locations also feature in-store charging stations to allow Pokémon GO players to charge their devices.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Jio|Reliance Jio Infocomm}} (which operates under the name Jio) in India. Starting December 13, 2016, nearly 3,000 Jio stores (thousands of {{wp|Reliance Digital}} stores according to Jio's press release) and select partner premises in India will become PokéStops or Gyms in the Pokémon GO, as well as offering charging stations for players. On Jio's social messaging app, JioChat, Pokémon players have access to an exclusive Pokémon GO channel to allow them to collaborate and be part of a community of players with daily tips, contests, clues, and special events. During Jio's "Happy New Year" offer, Jio {{wp|Subscriber identity module|SIM}} customers will be able to download and play Pokémon GO without incurring data charges, like any other apps and content, until March 31, 2017.

==Development==
The game was conceived by John Hanke after the development of Niantic's Ingress. It was decided that a game based on Pokémon would be a good choice, due to its focus on collecting the titular creatures. Hanke brought the idea to the Pokémon Company and talked with Mr. Isihara. Development began. Junichi Masuda worked with Niantic on the game's development.<ref>''Game Informer #81: Pokénomenon''</ref>

An Ingress Report released on September 10, 2015, the day of the game's announcement, stated that a closed beta would occur during Northern Hemisphere winter 2015 and that the game would be released in early 2016.<ref name="IngressReport">[https://youtu.be/HMsM1nzWiYw?t=2m22s INGRESS REPORT - Begin New Journey - Raw Feed September 10 2015]</ref> However, no beta testing occurred during 2015.<ref>[https://archive.is/0noAj Pokémon GO - Pokemon.com (archived February 7, 2016)]</ref><ref>[http://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2016/01/160108_at01.html 『Pokémon GO』のベータテストについて｜ポケットモンスターオフィシャルサイト]</ref>

Field tests were held in Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and the United States prior to the game's public release. Selected applicants were given the opportunity to test the game.
* Japan: held from March 29 to June 30, 2016, announced on March 3, 2016<ref>[https://archive.is/5731W Pokémon GO - Pokemon.com (archived March 3, 2016)]</ref><ref>[https://www.nianticlabs.com/blog/pokemon-fieldtest/ Pokémon GO field testing will begin in Japan - Niantic, Inc.]</ref>
* Australia and New Zealand: held from April 25 to June 30, 2016, announced on April 7, 2016<ref>[https://www.nianticlabs.com/blog/pokemon-fieldtest-au-nz/ Pokémon GO field testing expands to Australia and New Zealand - Niantic, Inc.]</ref>
* United States: held from May 25 to June 30, 2016, announced on May 16, 2016<ref>[https://www.nianticlabs.com/blog/pokemon-fieldtest-us/ Pokémon GO field testing expands to the United States - Niantic, Inc.]</ref>

A session at the {{wp|Game Developers Conference}} featuring the game [[n:Pokémon GO to be discussed at Game Developers Conference|was intended to be held]] by Niantic CEO John Hanke on March 14, 2016, but was later cancelled due to Niantic preparing the game for beta testing and launch.<ref>[http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2016/03/03/pokemon-go-gdc-presentation-canceled.aspx Pokémon Go GDC Presentation Canceled - www.GameInformer.com]</ref>

After its initial release on July 6, 2016, additional releases [[n:Niantic puts Pokémon GO's international rollout on hold|were put on hold]] due to server issues, but resumed on July 13, 2016, with the app's [[n:Pokémon GO now available in Germany|release in Germany]]. France was supposed to receive the app alongside other European countries, but the official release in the country was postponed due to the {{wp|2016 Nice attack}}.<ref>[http://fr.ign.com/pokemon-go-iphone/15934/news/pokemon-go-the-pokemon-company-confirme-le-report-francais Pokémon GO : The Pokémon Company confirme le report français]</ref>

==Trivia==
* This is the only Pokémon game to have the word "Pokémon" spelled in Latin letters in its Japanese name.
* Because the game does not currently include {{p|Tyrogue}}, it is possible to hatch {{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Hitmonchan}} from {{pkmn|Egg}}s despite them being evolved Pokémon, since their pre-evolutions were introduced in later generations.
* Because the game only features Pokémon introduced in Generation I and [[baby Pokémon]] introduced in Generation II, no {{type|Dark}} Pokémon can be obtained.
* Pokémon GO has been banned in Iran<ref>[http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-36989526 Pokemon Go banned by Iranian authorities over 'security' | BBC]</ref> and China<ref>[https://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/2017/01/10/pokemon-go-isnt-coming-to-china-any-time-soon Pokémon Go banned by China authorities over 'safety' and 'security' | Forbes]</ref> due to security concerns. However, some Iranians are still playing the game publicly regardless.<ref>[https://www.yahoo.com/tech/iranians-hunt-pokemon-despite-ban-071914210.html Iranians hunt Pokemon despite ban | Yahoo]</ref>

{{StrategyWiki}}
'''Pokémon GO''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|Pokémon GO|ポケモン　ゴー}}}}''') is a multiplayer, location-based, {{wp|augmented reality}} Pokémon game for {{wp|iOS}} and {{wp|Android (operating system)|Android}}. The game results from a collaboration between [[The Pokémon Company]], [[Nintendo]], and [[Niantic]], Inc., and is {{wp|Freemium|free to download}} with in-app purchases. It was released in most markets with access to the iOS App Store or Google Play Store on a staggered schedule starting on July 6, 2016.

The game was announced at a press conference in Japan on September 10, 2015. Field tests for Pokémon GO were held from March 29, 2016 through June 30, 2016.

The game is compatible with the [[Pokémon GO Plus]], a {{wp|Bluetooth}} device that allows players to enjoy elements of the game without looking at their phone. Compatibility with the {{wp|Apple Watch}} was added in an update on December 22, 2016.

==Blurb==
Venusaur, Charizard, Blastoise, Pikachu, and many other Pokémon have been discovered on planet Earth!

Now’s your chance to discover and capture the Pokémon all around you—so get your shoes on, step outside, and explore the world. You’ll join one of three teams and battle for the prestige and ownership of Gyms with your Pokémon at your side.

Pokémon are out there, and you need to find them. As you walk around a neighborhood, your smartphone will vibrate when there’s a Pokémon nearby. Take aim and throw a Poké Ball… You’ll have to stay alert, or it might get away!

Search far and wide for Pokémon and items

Certain Pokémon appear near their native environment—look for Water-type Pokémon by lakes and oceans. Visit PokéStops, found at interesting places like museums, art installations, historical markers, and monuments, to stock up on Poké Balls and helpful items.

Catching, hatching, evolving, and more

As you level up, you’ll be able to catch more-powerful Pokémon to complete your Pokédex. You can add to your collection by hatching Pokémon Eggs based on the distances you walk. Help your Pokémon evolve by catching many of the same kind.

Take on Gym battles and defend your Gym

As your Charmander evolves to Charmeleon and then Charizard, you can battle together to defeat a Gym and assign your Pokémon to defend it against all comers.

It’s time to get moving—your real-life adventures await!

Note: This app is free-to-play and is optimized for smartphones, not tablets.

==Gameplay==
[[File:GO Guide Catch 3.png|thumb|200px|Encountering a wild Rattata, with AR mode disabled]]
In the game, [[wild Pokémon]] appear on a map of the real world, with the player moving in the game by travelling in the real world. When a Pokémon is nearby, the player's phone vibrates. The player can encounter a nearby Pokémon by tapping it in the Map View. Different kinds of Pokémon will appear in different environments; for example, {{type|Water}} Pokémon are more common near water. The player is assisted by [[Professor Willow]] throughout the game. Players can login using a [[Pokémon Trainer Club]] account or a Google account.

In a wild encounter, the player attempts to capture a wild Pokémon in a [[Poké Ball]] before it runs away. Unlike in the [[core series]] games, these encounters do not involve battle. At higher levels, the player can use [[Razz Berry|Razz Berries]] to make wild Pokémon easier to catch or use more powerful Poké Balls like {{ball|Great}}s and {{ball|Ultra}}. While holding a press on a Poké Ball, a ring will appear around the Pokémon. This ring shrinks over time; once it reaches its smallest size it immediately returns to full size and the cycle repeats. If the Poké Ball is thrown while the ring is very small, the capture is more likely to be successful.

The game can be played as an {{wp|augmented reality}} (AR) game, so that in wild encounters and Gym battles the Pokémon appear to be in the real world when looking at the smart device's screen. However, it is also possible to disable this functionality, which saves battery power and is necessary on some devices which do not support AR.

Catching and hatching Pokémon earns the player [[Candy]], which can be spent to [[evolution|evolve]] or [[Power Up]] Pokémon. Each evolutionary family has its own type of Candy ({{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Hitmonchan}} have separate Candy), so in order to evolve a Pokémon the player needs to catch a number of Pokémon from that same evolutionary family. If a player wants to get rid of a Pokémon, they can transfer it to Professor Willow, who will permanently keep the Pokémon but give 1 Candy in return. Catching and hatching Pokémon also earns the player {{OBP|Stardust|GO}}, which also needs to be expended to [[Power Up]] Pokémon; unlike Candy, there is only one type of Stardust for all Pokémon.

There are two main types of locations in Pokémon GO: [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. PokéStops and Gyms exist at pre-defined real world locations, and the player must be within range of them in order to interact with them (although they can be inspected as long as they shown up in the Map View). Players can obtain items and {{pkmn|Egg}}s by visiting PokéStops, whereas players fight for control of Gyms.

Players can customize their appearance, such as clothing and accessories, which can be shown to other players. [[Pokémon Trainer]]s collect XP from performing various actions, such as catching Pokémon, which allows them to increase their Trainer [[level]]. Leveling up rewards the player with items, and some levels unlock features of the game. Wild Pokémon encountered by Trainers at higher levels are more likely to have higher CP. The maximum number of times an individual Pokémon can be [[Power Up|Powered Up]] increases with the Trainer's level.

[[PokéCoin]]s can be obtained in-game or via in-app purchases with real money. They can be traded for extra items and other enhancements.

===Available Pokémon===
Only Pokémon introduced in [[Generation I]] and some {{gen|II}} baby Pokémon are available in the game. Evolved Pokémon can be caught in the wild, but currently {{pkmn2|Legendary}} and [[Mythical Pokémon]] have not been found in the wild. {{p|Ditto}} was not made available until November 23, 2016. Baby Pokémon were released along with a limited edition {{p|Pikachu}} with a Santa hat on December 12, 2016. Pokémon from other [[generation]]s may be made available in the future.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqbsdqjgj-k Pokémon GO - Demonstration - Nintendo E3 2016]</ref>

On February 15, 2016, The Pokémon Company announced that over 80 Pokémon from [[Generation II]] would become available with an update to be released later that week. The Generation II Pokémon shown in the advertisement were {{p|Chikorita}}, {{p|Cyndaquil}}, {{p|Totodile}}, {{p|Espeon}}, {{p|Umbreon}}, {{p|Bellossom}}, {{p|Marill}}, and {{p|Hoppip}}.

The player may choose from the three [[Kanto]] [[starter Pokémon]] at the beginning of the game: {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Charmander}}, or {{p|Squirtle}}. If the player walks away from the starter Pokémon four times, {{p|Pikachu}} will also appear as a possible starter Pokémon. These Pokémon may also be found in the wild later on.

Which Pokémon {{p|Eevee}} evolves into is normally random. However, if Eevee is nicknamed after one of the [[Eevee brothers]] before evolving, it will evolve into their respective evolution: Sparky for {{p|Jolteon}}, Rainer for {{p|Vaporeon}}, and Pyro for {{p|Flareon}}.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemongo/comments/4t0cpo/psa_how_to_force_your_eevee_to_evolve_into_your/?st=iqo9zize&sh=66e8bdd1</ref> This can only be done once per evolution.

{{p|Farfetch'd}}, {{p|Kangaskhan}}, {{p|Mr. Mime}}, and {{p|Tauros}} appear to be region-exclusive, currently only being found in Asia, Australia, Europe, and North America, respectively.

===Locations===
There are two main types of locations in Pokémon GO: [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. PokéStops and Gyms exist at pre-defined real world locations, and the player must be within range of them in order to interact with them (although they can be inspected as long as they shown up in the Map View).

The locations of PokéStops and Gyms are based on a selection of portals from the Niantic game {{wp|Ingress (video game)|Ingress}}. Until 2015, Ingress players could submit proposals for portals which subsequently had to be approved by Niantic.

PokéStops allow players to obtain items and Eggs by spinning the Photo Disc. At Gyms, players can battle to weaken those belonging to opposing teams or strengthen those belonging to their own team; a player can earn {{OBP|Stardust|GO}} and [[PokéCoin]]s by holding onto Gyms. PokéStops are much more common than Gyms.

Depending on where a player lives, PokéStops and Gyms may be very common or very sparse, tending to be more common in urban areas due to a higher population density resulting in more Ingress players in those areas. If there are no nearby PokéStops, the player can only obtain Poké Balls by leveling up or purchasing them with PokéCoins; if there are no nearby Gyms, the player can only obtain PokéCoins by purchasing them with real currency.

===Teams===
[[File:GO Professors Assistants.png|300px|thumb|The Team Leaders, Candela, Blanche and Spark.]]
After the player reaches level 5, they can choose a team by tapping a Gym. There are three teams: Team Instinct (yellow) whose leader is Spark, Team Mystic (blue) whose leader is Blanche, and Team Valor (red) whose leader is Candela. A Gym can only be controlled by one team at a time. If a Gym is controlled by the player's team, they can train at it and add one of their own Pokémon to defend it. If a Gym is controlled by a rival team, the player can battle it to decrease its Prestige; when a Gym's Prestige reaches zero, any nearby player can claim it for their own team.

Pokémon Appraisal, added in version 0.35.0 (labelled version 1.5.0 on the iOS App Store), has the chosen Team's leader detail a Pokémon's stats much like a [[stats judge]] in the core series. They describe how good the Pokémon would be in a battle, which of its three stats is its highest, and how good its stats are overall. They will also note if the Pokémon's height or weight is particularly far from the average listed in the Pokédex.

===PokéCoins===
[[File:PokéCoin.png|thumb|100px|A PokéCoin]]
{{main|PokéCoin}}
PokéCoins are the in-app currency used in Pokémon GO. There are two ways of obtaining PokéCoins: the {{OBP|Gym|GO}} Defender bonus or by purchasing them with real money.

To obtain the Defender bonus, the player must open the Shop menu and tap the shield icon while they have a Pokémon in at least one Gym. They will earn {{OBP|Stardust|GO}} and 10 PokéCoins for each Gym they currently hold, being able to obtain this bonus once every 21 hours.

===Experience===
{{main|Experience#Pokémon GO|Experience → Pokémon GO}}
In Pokémon GO, the player earns experience (abbreviated XP), rather than the Pokémon. As the player gains experience they gain levels. Leveling up awards the player with items, and certain levels unlock particular items. After reaching level 5, the player can choose a team, which allows them to use {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s. As the player's level increases, their Pokémon are able to achieve a higher Combat Power as the player powers them up.

===Eggs===
[[File:GO Egg 2 km.png|thumb|150px|A 2 km egg in Pokémon GO (originally used for Eggs of all distances)]]
{{main|Pokémon Egg#Pokémon GO|Pokémon Egg → Pokémon GO}}
The player can obtain Eggs at [[PokéStop]]s. An Egg will hatch after traveling a certain distance while the Egg is in an incubator. Three Egg distances are possible: 2 km, 5 km, and 10 km. Each species has a set Egg distance and can only hatch from Eggs with this distance.

===Buddy===
By assigning a Buddy Pokémon, the player can get additional candies for that species of Pokémon as it walks. Depending on the species, one can get candies every 1 km, 3 km or 5 km walked. One can only have one Buddy at a time, and by changing the Buddy the progress made is lost, but the candies earned are kept.

===Medals===
{{main|Medal#Pokémon GO|Medal → Pokémon GO}}

According to the official support site, the game can be played on:<ref>[https://support.pokemongo.nianticlabs.com/hc/en-us/articles/221958248-Supported-devices Supported devices – Pokémon GO]</ref>

However, the game is also playable on some iOS and Android devices that are not officially supported.

==Connectivity==
Pokémon GO currently has no connectivity with other Pokémon games. However, [[Junichi Masuda]] has stated that the developers plan to add connectivity with the [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|next entry]] in the [[core series]] Pokémon games.<ref>[https://youtu.be/qqbsdqjgj-k?t=29m16s Pokémon GO - Demonstration - Nintendo E3 2016 (YouTube)]</ref><ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20160715175300/http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/news-from-the-pokemon-go-announcement/ News From the Pokémon GO Announcement - Pokemon.com (archived July 15, 2016)]</ref>

==Partnerships==
{{incomplete|needs=Partnerships in Japan}}
Due to the popularity of Pokémon GO, the game has partnered with several other companies to offer special promotions. These partnerships often involve sponsored locations, wherein stores affiliated with the partner company become [[PokéStop]]s and {{OBP|Gym|GO}}s; sponsored locations do not appear in the game for players under the age of 13.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Starbucks}} in the United States. Starting December 8, 2016, 7,800 company-operated Starbucks stores in the United States have been made into PokéStops and Gyms. Additionally, Starbucks is selling a special-edition Pokémon GO Frappuccino as part of this partnership; the Pokémon GO Frappuccino starts with a Vanilla Bean {{wp|Frappuccino}} blended beverage and raspberry syrup blended with freeze-dried whole blackberries and topped with whipped cream.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Sprint Corporation|Sprint}} in the United States. Starting December 7, 2016, 10,500 Sprint, {{wp|Boost Mobile}} and Sprint at {{wp|RadioShack|Radioshack}} stores in the United States are becoming PokéStops and Gyms. Sprint locations also feature in-store charging stations to allow Pokémon GO players to charge their devices.

Pokémon GO partnered with {{wp|Jio|Reliance Jio Infocomm}} (which operates under the name Jio) in India. Starting December 13, 2016, nearly 3,000 Jio stores (thousands of {{wp|Reliance Digital}} stores according to Jio's press release) and select partner premises in India will become PokéStops or Gyms in the Pokémon GO, as well as offering charging stations for players. On Jio's social messaging app, JioChat, Pokémon players have access to an exclusive Pokémon GO channel to allow them to collaborate and be part of a community of players with daily tips, contests, clues, and special events. During Jio's "Happy New Year" offer, Jio {{wp|Subscriber identity module|SIM}} customers will be able to download and play Pokémon GO without incurring data charges, like any other apps and content, until March 31, 2017.

==Development==
The game was conceived by John Hanke after the development of Niantic's Ingress. It was decided that a game based on Pokémon would be a good choice, due to its focus on collecting the titular creatures. Hanke brought the idea to the Pokémon Company and talked with Mr. Isihara. Development began. Junichi Masuda worked with Niantic on the game's development.<ref>''Game Informer #81: Pokénomenon''</ref>

An Ingress Report released on September 10, 2015, the day of the game's announcement, stated that a closed beta would occur during Northern Hemisphere winter 2015 and that the game would be released in early 2016.<ref name="IngressReport">[https://youtu.be/HMsM1nzWiYw?t=2m22s INGRESS REPORT - Begin New Journey - Raw Feed September 10 2015]</ref> However, no beta testing occurred during 2015.<ref>[https://archive.is/0noAj Pokémon GO - Pokemon.com (archived February 7, 2016)]</ref><ref>[http://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2016/01/160108_at01.html 『Pokémon GO』のベータテストについて｜ポケットモンスターオフィシャルサイト]</ref>

Field tests were held in Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and the United States prior to the game's public release. Selected applicants were given the opportunity to test the game.
* Japan: held from March 29 to June 30, 2016, announced on March 3, 2016<ref>[https://archive.is/5731W Pokémon GO - Pokemon.com (archived March 3, 2016)]</ref><ref>[https://www.nianticlabs.com/blog/pokemon-fieldtest/ Pokémon GO field testing will begin in Japan - Niantic, Inc.]</ref>
* Australia and New Zealand: held from April 25 to June 30, 2016, announced on April 7, 2016<ref>[https://www.nianticlabs.com/blog/pokemon-fieldtest-au-nz/ Pokémon GO field testing expands to Australia and New Zealand - Niantic, Inc.]</ref>
* United States: held from May 25 to June 30, 2016, announced on May 16, 2016<ref>[https://www.nianticlabs.com/blog/pokemon-fieldtest-us/ Pokémon GO field testing expands to the United States - Niantic, Inc.]</ref>

A session at the {{wp|Game Developers Conference}} featuring the game [[n:Pokémon GO to be discussed at Game Developers Conference|was intended to be held]] by Niantic CEO John Hanke on March 14, 2016, but was later cancelled due to Niantic preparing the game for beta testing and launch.<ref>[http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2016/03/03/pokemon-go-gdc-presentation-canceled.aspx Pokémon Go GDC Presentation Canceled - www.GameInformer.com]</ref>

After its initial release on July 6, 2016, additional releases [[n:Niantic puts Pokémon GO's international rollout on hold|were put on hold]] due to server issues, but resumed on July 13, 2016, with the app's [[n:Pokémon GO now available in Germany|release in Germany]].

==Trivia==
* This is the only Pokémon game to have the word "Pokémon" spelled in Latin letters in its Japanese name.
* Because the game does not currently include {{p|Tyrogue}}, it is possible to hatch {{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Hitmonchan}} from {{pkmn|Egg}}s despite them being evolved Pokémon, since their pre-evolutions were introduced in later generations.
* Because the game only features Pokémon introduced in Generation I and [[baby Pokémon]] introduced in Generation II, no {{type|Dark}} Pokémon can be obtained.
* Pokémon GO has been banned in Iran<ref>[http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-36989526 Pokemon Go banned by Iranian authorities over 'security' | BBC]</ref> and China<ref>[https://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/2017/01/10/pokemon-go-isnt-coming-to-china-any-time-soon Pokémon Go banned by China authorities over 'safety' and 'security' | Forbes]</ref> due to security concerns. However, some Iranians are still playing the game publicly regardless.<ref>[https://www.yahoo.com/tech/iranians-hunt-pokemon-despite-ban-071914210.html Iranians hunt Pokemon despite ban | Yahoo]</ref>

== How do I archieve? ==

I see you just archieved your talk page. I'm feeling my talk page has grown over the years to a size I feel like is more than enough long. Can I just do it on my own like you did with your talk page just now? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 19:07, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
:Yup, all you have to do is move it [[Bulbapedia:Talk page policy#Archiving user talk pages|more or less]] wherever you want (with the tab at the top of the page). Make sure to link the archive on your new talk page, too. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 19:10, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
::Thanks! I'll do that when I get the chance. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 19:12, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

== Hey ==

I just wanted to thank you for your hard work with the e-Reader information for Colosseum. I've been trying to get a hold of that information for a long time and you managed to collect quite a substantial amount. So again, thanks! [[User:Ht14|'''''ht''''']][[User talk:Ht14|''14'']] 23:07, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
:{{u|Nmurthy}} deserves much of the credit for being the first to [[User talk:Nmurthy#Colosseum e Cards|find]] the most recent information and start adding it here. I'm hoping I'll be able to contact the video's uploader, though, and maybe add even more info eventually. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 23:18, 13 November 2015 (UTC)

== Talk: Starter Pokémon ==

[[User:Chrisbulb|Christian]] ([[User talk:Chrisbulb|talk]]) 21:02, 20 November 2015 (UTC)
Hi Tiddlywinks,

I feel this trivia fact in the anime is important and should not be deleted please.

*{{p|Charmander}} is the only Kanto starter that was not obtained or caught by May.

May only got Bulbasaur and Squirtle, but not Charmander. She does have a Fire-starter, but it is from "Hoenn" not Kanto.
:Three Pokemon is a small group, and two is a small number. It borders on coincidence. But honestly, I don't generally bother with the anime so maybe I've got the wrong perspective and others might feel different if you bring it up on the Starter Pokemon talk page. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 21:11, 20 November 2015 (UTC)

[[User:Chrisbulb|Christian]] ([[User talk:Chrisbulb|talk]]) 02:05, 21 November 2015 (UTC)
It might make a great trivia fact. Ash caught all the Kanto starters, but May only caught two of them. Soot yourself if you don't appreciate it. (Others would probably realize this too.)
:Tiddlywinks is right, three Pokémon is too small of a group. So your trivia is unnotable.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 03:40, 21 November 2015 (UTC)

== Traps ==

I am not sure on the exact percents as I didn't dig up the info myself (as I've said on my talk page). I did check other things on my own, and for example there are indeed natural Spiked Tiles in [[Solar Cave]]. [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 12:30, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
:Well, it doesn't look like the writer for the FAQ you linked explicitly said whether they got their numbers directly from the game or from lots of experimenting. I don't really mind practical estimations myself; my concern is just, if that's what they are (instead of ideal values), it should probably be noted. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 12:42, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
::I'll edit the pages appropiately. And use your template as it's far more {{tt|convenient|I just used what was on pages for Explorers' dungeons (as these games have traps way earlier so there were some already)}}. [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 12:52, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

== Pokémon Manga Location ==

Hi, you previously removed my addition to the Location part of [[PS001]] saying that the infobo wasn't meant for more than one information.

Alot of other chapters such as [[PS002]] contains more than one. I'm lost. [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 23:49, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
:Okay, that's partly my bad, then.
:There's still a couple issues with what you were trying to add, though. First and foremost, as a guideline, how about we generally try to stick to places we actually have pages for on this wiki? (I.e., not "West part of Pallet Town's Forest".) Second, checking the summary, it really doesn't sound like Oak's Lab features at all prominently in PS001; so that's probably a reason against adding Oak's Lab there too. Also, while I do notice that [[PS005]] includes the Gym as a location, other chapters like [[PS014]] don't include [[Pokémon Tower]] and such; you can argue they should, but I would suggest this: most often, it's not really necessary to include locations within a town (like Oak's Lab) if that town is already given as the location.
:Feel free to ask any other questions. I'm totally capable of being wrong or underinformed, so I'd be happy to hear if you see anything else that seems to contradict what I've said. Honestly, one of the {{bp|Project Manga}} contacts may be a better person to try to talk to if you want more confident answers. =P [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 00:10, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

::I totally understand that places that don't have a page are irrelavant, that's sorted out for me now. But for your exemple with Oak's Lab, even though it is IN Pallet Town, this is still a well-known and important place to be in the Pokémon game. But that's not my question, no, it's rather as you said, Oak's Lab is not the main place in which the chapter takes place, but at the end (2 pages or so) of the chapter, Red is outside of Oak's Lab and we can very clearly see that it is his lab since there's a sign and all that.

::As you said, you might not be the best person to argue something like that since it's manga-related, but where should we draw the line? Is knocking at the door of a building before entering it counts as being a location, or does the character needs to be INSIDE of that location? Thanks for your fast and elaborate replies ! It's really appreciated. :) [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 00:18, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
:::Just to be clear, I'll reiterate first: I don't really think Oak's Lab ''should'' be in the infobox at any point. Pallet Town is pretty much good enough, and the summary arguably suffices otherwise.
:::As for where the line might be: as a bare minimum, if a place isn't entered, it doesn't belong in the infobox. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 00:38, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

:::: Gotcha! [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 00:40, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

== Content removed ==

I had a couple of questions regarding my removed additions.

*In [[Interviewers]], you said ''"Please don't use "you". Also, quotes are for individuals, not Trainer classes"''
**I won't be using first person from now on, I will be using 3rd person. Thanks for the tip.
**I agree with you on the fact that it should be for individuals, not for trainer class, but this one's tricky, since in every game, the interviewers are only 2 persons that stick together, so if you mention the game, you automatically know which trainer we are talking about. So what are the option here? I am seeing three:
***We make an exception for this trainer class since, as I mentionned, they're unique in every game.
***We make an exclusive page for each character and include their quotes in it.
***We add to the trainer list their quotes from talking and initiating, winning or losing a fight.

*In [[Player's House]] you said ''"Please stick to the 3rd person (not "we"). And that's not unique to ORAS"''
**As said previously, I will stick to the 3rd person. But can I still add this information?
**Texts on Player's Houses signs aren't always written the same way even though they are very similar, should we put a table stating what every sign mentions for every generation?

Thanks again! :) [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 05:28, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
:As for interviewers... Firstly, I'll note that we do have pages for [[Gabby and Ty]] and [[Roxy and Oli]]. But, secondly, it's really not ''guaranteed'' that any "interview" is conducted by those people unless that is explicitly conveyed. There's no reason other people can't have jobs as interviewers. (And thirdly, a "report" really isn't guaranteed to be conducted by "interviewers" either.)
:For the house, I kind of think the sign is pretty trivial (and I don't mean that it belongs under Trivia). More, the differences between the signs are ''really'' trivial I think. If the sign would warrant any mention, it would be as part of the intro, not multiple times for each section. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 05:42, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

::You're right, I haven't thought about the fact that others may be interviewers. For the next point, the game itself says that it's more than one ("we") interviewers than speak since it's written as so: ''"Interviewer: (text)"'' so it's probably them, but as you said, it's not guaranteed. As for the signs, yeah, it's pretty trivial, but it's still a part of the game's text/lore. Well, it's up to you, I'll stop mentionning it if it's that trivial. :P [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 05:51, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

== Quotes Mark. Why or Why not? ==

You recently removed the quotes on my TV shows' titles. Why is that so? I didn't quite understand the thing about the Teachy TV. As for the quotes themselves, the game uses them, shouldn't we use them too? [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 01:36, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
:Where does the game use them? I only noticed them in the quotes for one of the shows you were adding, and at least one other didn't have them. While on the other hand, none of the other sections except Teachy TV had quotes either. (Teachy TV is a little weird, so I won't say it definitely should or shouldn't use quotes.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 01:46, 22 January 2016 (UTC)

::Well, in fact, 3 out of the 6 shows I'm adding uses them. Considering Nadia Reports is not the official name. It's 3/5.
::They are:
::*KOUKAN TALK
::*ThePokémon Whisperer,
::*What's that?
::[[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 01:53, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
:::Well, the headers for the Unova shows (including its Koukan Talk) didn't have quotes either.
:::The simple answer, though, is that it's just a special, applied format... Like how APA insists you underline or italicize shows or songs or whatever. But that's just in bulk text, really; that doesn't mean we ''must'' do the same thing in the section headers, it's just a very different context.
:::Side question: can you tell me why you chose to title the one section as Nadia Reports? In short, is that totally invented by you? [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 02:05, 22 January 2016 (UTC)

::::No, I took it from the Kalos Shows list. [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 02:07, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
:::::OK. Someone should look into whether that's really the best title... [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 02:10, 22 January 2016 (UTC)

== trainer tips layout ==

Want me to reproduce the layout as in ORAS? I skip a line everytime the game does, is that it? [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 04:47, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
:I already did. But like I said, there needs to be an actual ORAS format for that template first. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 04:51, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

::Well, if you corrected the format, why do you keep it hidden? [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 04:54, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
:::Because the Emerald format does not work properly with the ORAS text (and, again, there's no ORAS format currently). [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 04:57, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

::::Ooohh, that's what you meant! Sorry! Now I understand. :P [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 05:06, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

== Trying to delete discussion on main page ==

i am currently unable to delete the post I started on the main page. I want to delete it because I shouldn't have started a post out of "anger". Once again, I''m sorry. [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 07:49, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
:Oh, well, that's better than what I thought it was, you trying to remove all comments after your first. =P As I did say on your talk page, though, talk page comments usually are not allowed to be removed. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 07:52, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

::I knew you were gonna think I was trying to remove your comments... That stressed me out meanwhile I was struggling on my iPad, I really, really, don't mean harm to the website, nor do I want people to think I am a cheater, only wanted to delete my bad move. (Feeling bad about the fact that might start to get annoyed by all the trouble I've put you through, once again, gomen!) [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 07:57, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
:::I'm just fine, but thanks. =) All I can really tell you is, if it at all deserves removing, I'm sure someone higher up will do it. (But I wouldn't count on it.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 08:01, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

::::A huge thank you for being so patient with me ^^ is this a good place for discussing what I was saying earlier? I would want to keep improving plots' quality. As for the Professor Oak thing, I wasn't so sure about that, you might be right, I just thought "Oak" was too... Hm.. Friendly, I guess? Anyways, as for the collective nouns, are those okay? Should they be considered 3rd person singular as I said or ..? [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 08:08, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
:::::Basically, I'd advise just leaving the collective nouns alone. IMO either way can be valid—I can even change my mind from one moment to the next. Like I kind of think ''"Team Rocket overhear Clemont and Bonnie talking about Snover and decide to take revenge on Abomasnow"'' is better than "overhears"/"decides", but then I think ''"Elsewhere, Team Rocket have also followed the group to the snowy mountains"'' is not as good as "has".
:::::The other thing you mentioned, ''"Red sends out Poliwhirl and uses Water Gun"'', is not a wording I really have much problem with personally. And to be nitpicky, "makes him use Water Gun" isn't a great-sounding alternative IMO. Because, on the one hand, the Trainer ''is'' making the decisions; and on the other, it kind of gets awkward if you'd always have to say "makes [it] use". There may still be ways around both issues (like ''"Jessie sends out Gourgeist to attack with Shadow Ball and Seed Bomb"''), but the best thing in the end may just be to get used to it (which of course is entirely up to you and your "conscience", so to speak). [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 08:29, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

::::::After a quick research, I have come with some more information concerning collective nouns, well explained on this page: http://grammar.yourdictionary.com/parts-of-speech/nouns/Collective-Nouns.html
In short: a team, for instance is always one thing, but it appears like I was part wrong, since when it acts as a whole, it's singular, and when it acts as individuals, it's plural.
Examples:
*Team Rocket IS looking for somewhere to hide.
*Team Rocket ARE taking care of THEIR Pokémon. (Jessy for Ekans and James for Koffing for instance)

My "<trainer> makes <pokemon> uses <move>" phrasing is not that good I admit, but we should find a better way to do so, since even if it's minor. Let's say Ash asks Bulbasaur to tackle Blue. Is Ash tackling Blue? No, Bulbasaur is, on Ash's order.

Anyway, these are little details that are worth looking up in official sources since, if we want to build a real, good encyclopedia, our grammar/wording must be top-notch! ^~^ [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 08:41, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

== Streamlining signature ==

"I'm curious. Why do you streamline" your signature every time? Shouldn't it be possible to just edit it in your preferences so that part you keep removing never appears?": Is it possible to do that?

[[User:Jdogno4|Jdogno4]] ([[User talk:Jdogno4|talk]]) 06:59, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
:Click the preferences link at the top of any page. The third box should be for your signature, and if you enter <code><nowiki>[[User:Jdogno4|Jdogno4]] ([[User talk:Jdogno4|talk]])</nowiki></code> in the new signature box, I think that'd make your signature appear like you want.
:On a side note, it's usually best to reply to someone's original comment directly (like mine on your talk page) instead of starting a brand new comment on their talk page. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 07:03, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

== Thanks ==
Thanks for updating the Genesect article. I just found a source that sites the code life. Do you think a source for the events should be provided?
[[User:Blado|Blado]] ([[User talk:Blado|talk]]) 17:25, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
:If you follow the event link, there is a link to Bulbanews article and links to the 20th anniversary site. I suspect that's the sort of source you were thinking of? [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 17:57, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

== Number of badges needed ==

So, if I know that it's not 1, what should we put? Since writing 1 is a lie/mistake. [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 21:57, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
:Put 2 if that's right. Or 3 if that is. Or 4, or 5 or 6 or 7 or 8. You can take the time to figure it out. "?" is just a bit too odd.
:(FWIW, you may also want to check the shops just before you get a Badge, just to see if there was maybe something in between that actually changed it and you don't mistake that for a Badge.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 22:04, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

::Is there a way to improve this template? Like, if I change something on it, I need to change it for ALL the shops in Hoenn Gen 6 which is like for every city... Can't we just make a template already filled up with the good info and simply add it to every page we need it? As a programmer, that seems more logical to me, that makes your code (wiki) more DRY (don't repeat yourself). [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 22:21, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
:::Basically, no, it's easier to just change every page.
:::Strictly speaking, it probably could be done, but I'm pretty sure the cons will outweigh the pros. ("Pretty sure" in part because it depends on how exactly you want to implement it. And also because I'm not an expert on how templates burden a wiki; I just know they do to an extent/at a certain point. You unfortunately can't do everything with a wiki you might like to with a custom program.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 22:37, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

::::Well, I don't know about the burden (but to me, one instance is less heavy than many) but I know enough about wiki templates that I know this can be done, and as you said, except for the burdening (which may even be smaller imo). All you have to do is create the template already filled, and then add it where you want, when you change the original, they all change, so much more ergonomic and easy-to-use. Who are the ones who decide the template stuff? I would like to discuss that with them. ^~^ [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 22:42, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
:::::Well, I can tell you that when a template needs to be improved, one of the first things that gets done is to manually substitute any nested template calls. It has to do with {{wp|Wikipedia:Template limits#Nested transclusions|this}} sort of thing and everything that's on that page I think. So a template that's just a thin wrapper for another template probably won't exactly be appreciated.
:::::But if you really want, sure, I can try to direct you to someone else...? [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 23:00, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

== Consistency on Route 110 ==

In the game, they appear in this order : Plusle on the left and Minun on the right.

:1) In a battle, Trainers face each other. So your left Pokemon (which is your first) is not opposite their "left"/first Pokemon.

== Deleted shop ==

I know it was already mentionned that there were move tutors, but I think we should still make a section for the shop that does so instead of all putting in move tutors. (Talking about [[Mauville City]]) [[User:MannedTooth| MannedTooth]] ([[User_Talk:MannedTooth|Talk]]) 14:35, 3 February 2016 (UTC)
:You hardly added anything with those shop sections. The Ultimate Move Shop is the one exception, but only barely. Ultimately, you were pretty much only adding the signs for each shop. And that's not nearly enough justification for making entirely new sections on the page. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 15:06, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

You should probably ask before removing (like you did now), especially if you don't know the concepts, if you don't want people to get mad :D

Ninjas are very often associated with the moon (and the night) in Japanese folklore. The word "moon" implies a "night", from where Greninja's Dark Type comes from.--[[User:Omojuzeforever|Omojuzeforever]] ([[User talk:Omojuzeforever|talk]]) 16:01, 5 February 2016 (UTC)
:There's not really anything I could quote you from the top of my head. Though if you have ever read/watched ninja stories, the ninjas are said to move "with the moonlight". Almost all of their most dangerous missions are on nights that have either a "full moon" or a "crescent moon". Sorry, can't really quote you anything from the top of my head. Also, the "moonlight" implies "night", which is "darkness", from which Greninja's Dark-Type comes.--[[User:Omojuzeforever|Omojuzeforever]] ([[User talk:Omojuzeforever|talk]]) 20:05, 5 February 2016 (UTC)

:You'll either have to look through {{cat|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon characters}} to find some examples or just ask someone who deals more with PMD.

::I already looked aat these lists, but the problem is that they are just a bunch of Names and Description more or less. I was thinking about creating pages for every one.

Hey hello,

You removed my question with the message that I should refrain from commenting on six months old discussions. Sorry about that, I thought it was still appropriate.

Do you think I should add a new section next time or do I have to do something different?

== New template? (again, I know) ==

So, I had another idea of template for the wiki, and since you're the latest online and the one I'm more "familiar" with (I'm sorry by the way hehe), I thought I'd show it to you.

So, basically, it is a template intended to go on the top of pages to make sort of a summary of the item/page with the quote of someone in game.

Just look at the [[User:MannedTooth/HeadQuote|template]] itself, you'll understand.

Let me know what you think, being in computer sciences, I dig making templates! :3 [[User:MannedTooth| MannedTooth ]] ([[User_Talk:MannedTooth|Talk]]) 23:53, 10 February 2016 (UTC)

::Well, it's kinda just intended to be a light and concise summary without going into details.

I've not seen the link he gave me in public anywhere else, so I'm not sure if it's okay for me to just share that, but you could always ask him about it if you want. The images may also be available to anyone who has a decrypted ROM, scattered around the file structure.
:Beyond that, though, there were still problems with your latest reasoning. Mainly, if, with the 'normal' "poking/prodding", you were referring to when you just tap once on the Pokemon, then that's defintely not "poking/prodding"; that exact same effect happens when you tap away from the Pokemon too. And IMO, there's much more to the "hit" SFX than just a shortened rubbing SFX.

:Honestly, the TCG is definitely not my area of expertise. As far as [[Fates Collide (TCG)]] goes, the only judgement I can make is that Nate already visited that page, so either he thought it was okay or he didn't notice.

== re. Fury Swipes ==

I made the change because as it stands, it's implying that three and only three hits is the most probable outcome, which is not true: it has the same probability as two hits at 37.5% each. It means to say that three or more hits is likely (37.5% + 12.5% + 12.5% for a 62.5% chance of three plus hits). This yields an above average likelihood that the power yield will be 18 × 3 or more, resting on an average power of 54.

I'm not sure what is confusing about this, especially given the ''current'' wording. [[User:DKqwerty|DKqwerty]] ([[User talk:DKqwerty|talk]]) 19:52, 13 March 2016 (UTC)

Lately I've been encountering a strange ominous red glow on Pokemon in the Battle Spot, and all my attempts to search for the cause leads to incorrect search results and several rule 34 results. I seem to encounter it on Shiny Pokémon a lot. Here is a Vs Recorder of a battle I encountered it, watch the Mismagius.

== Slowpoke as a Water Bear ==

Nah, that was the right link. I mean, it may look strange but I'm sure they're based (not only psychically) on Water Bears (AKA tardigrades): they have similar body and limbs shapes; Slowpoke, and Slowbro, both have some ursine characteristics (suggesting a pun) and the name Tardigrada itself means "slow stepper".

I'd like to ask you to reconsider this one.

== Quick question about pkmn template links ==

Should these be actively replaced? Part of the reason I decided to use {{template|pkmn}} (for the Pokémaniac and Tuber pages at least) was because every other Gen VI trainer class page used it in their "Art from"/"Appears in" bits and I wanted to be consistent.--[[User:Cold|Cold]] ([[User talk:Cold|talk]]) 19:39, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
:I didn't exactly think all that far about it ( ^^; ). I was just thinking I didn't want to leave those changes and thereby "encourage" more use of pkmn for anyone who might see those. But if it's really used so regularly, it'd certainly be best if we could replace it with a proper game template.
:...Assuming I'm not just being "silly" about this distinction. =P I had this idea someone told me not to use "pkmn" before, but it may be I just imagined that (I can't find where that might have been from a brief search).

== That Colosseum thing. ==

I don't understand your explanation for removing this:
Also, any Pokémon absent from {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} that are in Colosseum (whether they're catchable or not) were all introduced in Generation II.

To elaborate, the only gen 1 Pokemon trainers used were the ones that were in Ruby & Sapphire (from this list) [http://serebii.net/rubysapphire/hoennpokedex.shtml], such as Zubat, Geodude, and Tentacool. Anything from gen 1 that's not on the list, such as Onix, Porygon, and Snorlax were not used by any trainers.

You said:

It's mostly expected that a pair of games opening a generation lets you catch all the new Pokemon. That only leaves Gen I & II, so the last part is obvious/not notable

Thanks for the advice! If I find some free time soon, I might start up those pages but we'll see.

I actually just got the game yesterday so I haven't even unlocked them all yet, haha.

== Miscrediting of anime animation directors ==

Hi, I noticed that the anime episode infoboxes have credited some people wrongly as animation directors (作画監督) when they should have been assistant animation directors (作画監督補佐). I have [[Special:Diff/2430901|corrected]] one such case, but it seems that this may be more common than I think. For example:

*[[XY002]]: 田島瑞穂, 松田真路 and one more person not in the infobox are actually credited as assistant animation director in the anime
*[[XY003]]: 堤舞 and 松永香苗 are actually credited as assistant animation director in the anime
*[[XY009]]: 岩根雅明 is actually credited as assistant animation director

I looked around and saw one example in [[DP063]] (comparing against [[Anime_staff_by_episode_(DP061-DP070)#DP063]]), which does not have this problem, but then again, this is from a previous series, so I am not sure if it is some guideline/policy introduced with the XY series and want to clarify what the correct way should be, before I go about correcting the other articles. [[User:Chenzw|Chenzw]] ([[User talk:Chenzw|talk]]) 12:58, 20 April 2016 (UTC)
:There is another problem when the episode credits the executive animation director (総作画監督) and assistant executive animation directors (総作画監督補佐). The credits screen places these staff on a higher position than animation directors (作画監督), but it is not necessarily reflected in the episode's infobox, where they are all credited as animation directors (作画監督):
:Example in [[XY106]]: 志村泉 and 松永香苗, who served as assistant executive animation directors in that episode, not only are miscredited in the infobox, but are also placed below 岩根雅明 in the infobox. [[User:Chenzw|Chenzw]] ([[User talk:Chenzw|talk]]) 14:59, 20 April 2016 (UTC)

== "Not unique = not notable" ==

You say that a lot, but I'd like to mention a few things:

{{p|Noibat}}
Noibat and its evolution Noivern are the only dual Flying-type Pokémon to have Flying as their primary type.

{{p|Aegislash}}
No other Pokémon has the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Aegislash and its {{p|Honedge|evolutionary}} {{p|Doublade|relatives}}.

[[DP072]]
This episode marks one of the extremely rare instances that Ash ever intentionally hurts a Pokémon, as he kicks J's Drapion in the face in order to escape from its claws.

If it's not just about Melee, then is an "audible voice" or "voice" different from a [[cry]]? Because I know Porygon2 has a cry—makes a ''sound''—in Gen III and IV at least.

Sorry for not indenting, but it's starting to get cluttered IMO. Anyway, you do understand that a cry and a voice are 2 different things, right?

:''This also makes it the only one of the first 493 not to have a voice.'' What does this mean?

I'll make sure to use more meaningful summaries in the future, but you'll have to excuse me for being slightly -annoyed- at having to ask people to not believe Bulbapedia for any old gen related information if the article has not been updated recently, then having people revert my edits because my summaries are "not gonna cut it", while edits like the following one pose no problem, and worse they cause wrong information to be on the wiki for more than a year, and cause a lot of people to take it for true, thus I had ONCE AGAIN to expain to people that NO, they aren't going to freeze my Jynx with Ice Beam, despite whatever is written on Bulbapedia, and that NO the implementation on PS is not wrong. 
[http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Freeze_%28status_condition%29&diff=2225495&oldid=2223367 The wrong info was added by SnorlaxMonster], on December 30th 2014, with the reason "'''Not sure if Ice types can be frozen by Ice-type moves in Gen II and III'''". Now that's a '''completely valid reason''' to make that edit and to add wrong informations, right ? 
So, yeah, I'm a bit pissed right now. If my edit has a bad summary, the edit was still done, and the first thing you should have done is [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Special:Contributions/Froggy25 looking at my contributions] to conclude that I'm "not just confused or something", but that this info was removed because it was incorrect (or at the very least not on a whim), so you wouldn't have to undo my edit. [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Freeze_%28status_condition%29&diff=2431162&oldid=2431159 Also don't mark the undo as a minor edit]. If the "Hide minor edits" is active in a user's watchlist, he won't be able to see it. '''Then''' you could have [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/User_talk:Froggy25 sent me a message] on my talk page to ask the reason of the edit, and tell me to write meaningful summaries. Much better than restoring wrong info on an article, one of the too many that still has incorrect info about old gens that old gen players are trying to correct.

== About Recruitable Pokémon in Dungeon ==
Hey Tiddlywinks! I noticed your recent edit about the "Recruitable Pokémon" section in Super Mystery Dungeon, and I just thought I'll bring up some discussion into this.

Regrading its notability, I think it is kinda notable since the Pokémon are recruited at different levels and importantly they can come with special moves (e.g. one of the Unown). But if the page was to have all the Pokémon listed as it is now, the page would probably become way to huge. In my opinion, I prefer the table format as it is in [[Connection Orb]], and I think adding the moves/levels into that table would probably be the most logical since it is relevant to Connecting; but the table will become even larger than it is right now (which is already big!). --[[User:Wowy|'''Wowy''']][[User talk:Wowy|'''(토크)''']] 04:07, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
:Thanks! That is a thought, putting it on [[Connection Orb]] where all the Pokemon are already listed. I've had a few questions I've remained unsure about, though, maybe you could help me out just so I can be sure?
:From what I've gathered, "connecting" in the Connection Orb is basically the new recruiting, right? And you can't (ever) recruit Pokemon by beating them in dungeons like in the past games, is that right? Also, ''anyone'' you connect with in the Connection Orb will be recruitable when you go on an expedition (give or take any who are on a "break")?
:I'm actually thinking SMD needs a bit of a rethink overall, re:connections/recruiting...
:As far as I can tell, this connection stuff is basically equivalent to availability for SMD (like [[Bulbasaur (Pokémon)#In side games]])... I'm thinking the table on Connection Orb only really needs the first four columns, and we should put the info about how to meet and/or connect with a Pokemon on its species page. I also think we should add something like a "Connections" section to all the location pages listing what Pokemon you can connect with there (and how), and maybe what Pokemon you can just meet (basically like the "Pokemon" sections of core series locations; it could even be called "Pokemon" maybe). On a dungeon page, it could say what mission (that can be done at that dungeon) can be completed to connect with a Pokemon, and it could say if any Pokemon can show up as traveling/fainted/fleeing Pokemon. And for [[Serene Village]], it could say how you can talk to [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=591BcpStAgc&t=13m23s Azumarill] in [[Café Connection]] (though I don't know ''how'' random Café Connections are...). I think this would be more appropriate and about as useful as trying to cram all that info into the same page on Connection Orb (which we really don't generally do).
:I have thoughts of mocking up a few pages (and templates) to demonstrate the idea. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 04:39, 28 April 2016 (UTC)

::Firstly, yes, "connecting" in the Connection Orb is basically the new recruiting. And yes, you can't (ever) recruit Pokemon by beating them in dungeons like in the past games. Not sure what you mean by your 3rd question but you can use any members you have connected with on a mission. I'm only very early in the game though...

I hate the idea of asking something burdensome of you, but it'd be great if you could keep track of what missions are at what dungeons as you play, and what Pokemon connect after completing them (since most of that isn't even filled in on Connection Orb table). When there's [[Template:PSMD locations|still whole dungeons]] without pages, I don't hold out a lot of hope that there'll be people jumping at the opportunity to fill out connection details if we add such sections. =P [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 05:03, 28 April 2016 (UTC)

== Non-significant "error" on [[XY114]] ==

Hi, I wonder if you could take some time to take a look at [[Talk:XY115]]?

== That error you undid. ==

Basically, Meowth is apparently a wild Pokemon, because in other episodes (like where he's supposedly fired from Team Rocket), he's been hit with a Pokeball and sucked inside, although it breaks out. But in that episode, it doesn't. You see what I'm saying?

:The Poke Ball was originally thrown at Kabutops and then deflected/rejected. As far as I'm concerned, that means it doesn't ''have'' to "activate" when it hits Meowth. If there's any particular reason to think otherwise, please let me know.

== Connection ==
Hey Tiddlywinks. Just wanted to note a few things before you make any changes to SMD related pages. I was comparing my missions with youtube videos, and I noticed a few differences.
*The location of the mission can differ (e.g. Ralts mission [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYFfUdpH8Mc] vs. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ms9HzXa2aH8]). I think the locations may be fixed to certain limited locations since mine was the same as one of them, and not all locations are open at the start. This means that the idea of putting which Pokemon can be connected with on specific location pages might not work.
However, things that do appear fixed:
*The type of mission
*The reward after a mission (I don't know if you want to include this info to wherever the mission info will be moved to)
*The difficulty of the mission (I don't know if you want to include this info somewhere too)

Also what do you mean by "set 3 contains 809 Pokémon" on the Connection Orb page?--[[User:Wowy|'''Wowy''']][[User talk:Wowy|'''(토크)''']] 00:53, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
:Awesome, thanks for finding that and letting me know! If you might be up for experimenting, maybe you could see if there's any way to soft-reset and change where a Pokemon's mission is set. (Maybe you have to soft-reset to before their mission-posting requirement has been met.) It'd be really interesting to know how many locations most missions are limited to (especially if all the dungeons have been unlocked), just a few or a lot (or ''any'') or what? If it's a lot, it may indeed be less useful to try to list a dungeon's missions...
:I took 809 from a quick look at a number I already had from a step in my process, not realizing that it was actually something like the total number of Pokemon in the first two rows of the table, instead of just the number of individual rows/"nodes". I completely spaced on how big the number I was writing actually was. =P [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 01:14, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

==Need your help with something==
A little trick I've been noticing on X and Y is that if in one of the areas where one of the "electric mice" (Pikuchu, Plusle, Minun, Pachirisu, Emolga, and Dedenne) appears and if one of them (or Pichu or Raichu) is at the front of your party then they appear in a battle more often (I've did a recent check and found they kept appearing most of the time when Raichu was at the front of my party, in fact it helped me make it easier to get a Light Ball from Pikachu).

== EXP yield changes in Gen VI ==

I thought you might want to know about this because you are working on a modified version of the infobox template in your userspace: there are some Pokémon who have had their experience yields adjusted again in Gen VI. Examples of some species which I have discovered so far are: Pikachu, Raichu, Nidoking, Nidoqueen. The current version of the infobox template only allows for "splitting" of these values between Gen 1-3, Gen 4, and Gen 5. Please consider highlighting this issue further upwards.

If you would be able to dump various stats for Pokemon from the Gen VI games and link me the output somewhere (like just some file sharing site, or pastebin), I'd be happy to process the info and consider your suggestion.
:If you can dump all sorts of base stats and such beyond just the experience yield (like catch rate, base friendship, exp growth, egg groups, egg cycles, gender ratio, species, color, body type, base exp, EVs, type, height/weight, base stats), that'd be neat too. I ask just because, personally, I'd like to be able to verify the data on our pages if the need arises. I don't know if you'd know where all of those bits of data are, but any you could dump would be great. =) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 16:51, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

::*Gender ratio corresponds to the table on [[Personality value]]
::*Height/weight are in metric units

== Your revert on [[Captivate (move)]] ==

Please reconsider your revert. [[User:Chenzw|Chenzw]] ([[User talk:Chenzw|talk]]) 16:19, 24 May 2016 (UTC)
:It certainly should not be reverted. Even if the ''next'' sentence says that it fails if they're opposite genders, that's simply "too late"; mention of such a core requirement should not be deferred like that. On {{m|Attract}}, we certainly wouldn't say that it causes the target to become infatuated, period, and for {{m|Synchronoise}}, we wouldn't say that it damages all adjacent Pokemon, period; and then only in the following sentence mention that, oh, by the way, it doesn't work on [these] Pokemon... That's just not appropriate for these sorts of moves.

I noticed you removed my reference to the Melemele Pokédex with the comment "Please, do not assume. It's only been shown in Japanese." Since when are we not allowed to include Japanese names for things that don't have confirmed English names? Unless you're taking issue with me romanizing メレメレ as Melemele, in which case you should know that "melemele" is Hawaiian for yellow. Given that the region is based on Hawaii, "assuming" that メレメレ refers to the Hawaiian word "melemele" is just as reasonable as "assuming" that the パルレ in [[Pokémon Amie]]'s Japanese name refers to the French word "parler". If you really want to be anal about it by all means keep it as "Meremere" for the time being, but I see no reason not to include it just because it's not the English name.--[[User:Siobonbon|Siobonbon]] ([[User talk:Siobonbon|talk]]) 07:59, 8 June 2016 (UTC)
:First off, please do understand that we do not wish to present (romanized) Japanese names in a way that people might mistake them as official English names for things. In the past, that may have been kind of necessary in our coverage of the core games, since the English might not be fully revealed when the Japanese games were already out; but the core games are currently being released/introduced simultaneously worldwide, so that's not really a problem anymore.
:Otherwise... I kind of took the simplest approach at the time. I feel that waiting isn't ''so'' terrible a thing. (Sure, Melemele/Yellow seems pretty reasonable...but there's always that niggling fear of an alternative you didn't see, especially at this point in the "game".)

== Movesets of CPU-controlled trainer Pokemon ==

Usually, the movesets of Pokemon in trainer encounters are undefined; the game looks at the Pokemon's current level (which is programmed into the trainer encounter data), then "generates" a moveset on the fly corresponding to the last 4 level-up moves that the Pokemon would theoretically learn. Trainer battles with explicitly defined movesets seldomly come by, and seems to be mostly limited to characters relevant to the storyline.

However, there's this Ace Trainer at [[Kiloude City]] which has a custom moveset for his Pokemon. Would it be alright to use {{tl|Party/Single}} for him? [[User:Chenzw|Chenzw]] ([[User talk:Chenzw|talk]]) 15:16, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
:No...I don't think so. He's a one-time battle, and only in one game (pair). He's not really notable and that's what the template is generally meant for. If you'd like, you could leave the moveset in HTML comments by his team perhaps. We have considered a bit the possibility of adding movesets to the Trainer list template, so it may get used. And if not...it'd still be there for other people to find? Actually, at that thought, it might be ''more'' visible on the city's talk page. (Feel free to do either, or both.)

:::Plenty of generic Ace Trainers/Veterans have custom movesets in my experience starting in Gen III and IV, as well as almost every trainer in the console side-games.

== SMD Update ==

Hey Tiddlywinks!
Just an update on SMD. I tried resetting to find the locations of the missions, and it appears there are multiple, but not infinite, number of locations for the missions. However, I can never be certain whether I've found all the locations just for that one Pokémon, and doing this for ALL of the Pokémon is too big of a task for me. Plus, the locations may change throughout the story. For example, when the player moves to Lively Town, you get to access more areas. So (I think) it is impossible to find all locations, so I suggest removing the location column from the [[Connection Orb]] page. On top, my computer is not high tech enough to edit that table without significant lag, so I don't know how I'll edit that table using the data I've gleaned so far.

I was also editing the [[Seed]]s article today, but the buy and sell price for Heal Seed in SMD doesn't appear. I don't think I did anything wrong so I'm thinking the table can't support four buy and sell prices at once.

Thanks! --[[User:Wowy|'''Wowy''']][[User talk:Wowy|'''(토크)''']] 11:18, 2 July 2016 (UTC)
:In that case, the thing we may want to be noting for each Pokemon is how you can ''meet'' them. That is, note where they can be found in the overworld or whose mission to complete to automatically be connected to them (or both if a Pokemon can be met either way). So then we could basicallly just let people find the Pokemon, and they can just view their own Connection Orb to see where they need to go for that Pokemon's mission. (The only other thing I think might be nice would be noting if there's a ''requirement'' before a Pokemon will ask you for a mission--supposing they don't offer immediately after being met, or the day after being met or something. But if it's not that, there could also just be some random element to it. IDK.)

::Thanks. How you meet them would come under the "Methods" column right (e.g. Chansey gets connected in connection with Rotom after completing Rotom's mission, or Azumarill gets connected when you talk to it at Cafe Connection)? Also, instead of "location", you can have "rewards" as a column. But I'm not sure how important it is because only a small percent of missions give rewards.--[[User:Wowy|'''Wowy''']][[User talk:Wowy|'''(토크)''']] 11:38, 2 July 2016 (UTC)
:::Nah, the last three were all supposed to be about connecting, not meeting. The best example for Method is something like Traveling Pokemon; there's still a location, but not exactly a mission.
:::Maybe we can just have two columns (scrapping the current last three entirely), like "Overworld" and "Acquaintances".
:::I'm a little curious about cases like [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=591BcpStAgc&t=14m Azurill]. I wonder if there are any cases where it might, somehow, be possible to ''meet'' a Pokemon like that in the overworld or by an acquaintance connection if you skip the auto-connect Pokemon for a while. That would make things a little interesting. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 12:22, 2 July 2016 (UTC)
::::Wowy, could you clarify what you mean by multiple locations for the missions? Are you talking about the Connection Orb requests, Traveling Pokemon, overworld, all of them, or some combination, and what exactly varies? Certain requests simply would not work if they weren't in specific dungeons, and there's data (I can elaborate later if needed) that suggests that Traveling Pokemon (and fleeing/fainted) are locked to specific dungeons after a certain point, though the exact floor they appear on may differ. Non-static Overworld Pokemon do get shuffled around each in-game day, though (early-game Serene Village stuff could have some differences, admittedly).
::::Also, I agree that the everything in the Mission column could fit in the Method one, at the very least. I'm pretty sure that every connection/acquaintance is completely set, and it's not possible to recruit any acquaintance Pokemon separately (and if there was, it would be an oversight and could be noted as such unless more interesting effects happened). I think it could even be reasonable to group Acquaintance Pokemon with the 'main' one to make it more obvious that all of those Pokemon are recruited as a group for doing a specific thing, but it could hurt sortability. [[User:VioletPumpkin|VioletPumpkin]] ([[User talk:VioletPumpkin|talk]]) 15:55, 2 July 2016 (UTC)
:::::What do you mean about non-static overworld Pokemon exactly? Are there a bunch of Pokemon that can just have random locations? (I'd kind of figured Pokemon in Cafe Connection might have unique circumstances, but otherwise I would mostly expect most Pokemon to be in just one place... Maybe not story characters, I guess?)
:::::Also, do you mean, for instance, that Azurill isn't even present ''anywhere'' in the overworld? Or Umbreon or Espeon? Or ''anyone'' who's labeled "connection of client" on [[Connection Orb]]? Or what? I'd kind of assumed basically everyone would be somewhere... [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 16:22, 2 July 2016 (UTC)
::::::Indeed, there are many Pokemon who are always found in a set location based on which day of the story it is (or section of the epilogue since you don't have to progress the first parts of that storyline immediately). These include the story-relevant characters, but also many other characters of usually minimal importance. In Serene Village/Lively Town, these ones will usually say something that makes sense to the player/partner, or they're having a conversation with another static villager. In the other towns, there are also Pokemon that are always in the same spot. Though, outside of the story-relevant trip to the Air Continent, I think they more or less say the same things.
::::::Then there are other spots, some scattered around the towns, but also in Cafe Connection (these are always the same locations regardless of the 'day'), that have a random Pokemon from a set list. These include Victini, many starters/evolved starters, Roserade/Gallade, Azumarill (this one might be a special case but I'm not sure), and quite a few more. These random Pokemon include some of the ones who give requests through the Connection Orb, and I believe you can accept the request either through talking to them or through the Connection Orb. If these Pokemon don't have a request/connect with you immediately, they will just tell you a one-liner which never changes. Which Pokemon is in each spot changes every day, for the most part (there were some Pokemon who had uncompleted requests who seemed to stick around in the same spot until I finished it). I'm pretty sure there are a decent amount of non-legendary Pokemon that can never appear in this way. For example, the only letter Unown (memory is fuzzy on ? and ! and they're separate from the others in a few ways) that ever appeared for me in this way are the ones who connect directly with you, and they acquaintance-connect many of the other Unown. Additionally, some of the Rotom formes can be found and talked to in this way before you connect with them (as traveling Pokemon), and won't automatically connect with you in the overworld.
::::::I'm not sure if I ever saw Azurill or Espeon, and I'm pretty sure I never saw Umbreon, but my memory is fuzzy on this. It did take me a while to connect with all the Eeveelutions though, and I only ever recruited them through their requests/as acquaintances/traveling Pokemon. Every overworld Pokemon, static or not, that can be connected just through talking to them almost certainly has some sort of trigger that allows them to be open for connection. For many static Pokemon and the various random starters, that trigger is completing the epilogue's story arc, but many others I'm not so sure about. I hope that was able to clarify some things, it's hard to remember many of the minutiae regarding specific Pokemon. [[User:VioletPumpkin|VioletPumpkin]] ([[User talk:VioletPumpkin|talk]]) 00:24, 3 July 2016 (UTC)
:::::::The Rotom forms, you mean even if you talk to them they don't get registered as "met" in the Connection Orb? (If you're not sure, do you know/can you tell me where they are in the overworld?)
:::::::Half the reason I only had a place for ''connection'' requirements on [[Connection Orb]] was because it's what was there beforehand; the other half of the reason is that there's already a fair amount of columns. But "meet" requirements are arguably just as important if not more. (It's also worth noting that this stuff should also be on individual Pokemon pages under Game locations. For now, ''both'' meet and connect requirements would be good... That way we can always decide we don't want one or the other.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 00:45, 3 July 2016 (UTC)
::::::::No, they do get met, sorry if that was confusing, and whenever I say connected, I mean they become usable in expeditions, which I think is the main thing that matters. Adding a meet requirements column feels needlessly convoluted, since most Pokemon are 'met' through connections anyway, and the rest are quickly found in towns (maybe a list of the Pokemon in the towns could be helpful). Pokemon that have requests (beyond the first one or two for each group from what I remember) will only give those requests if they're adjacent to a Pokemon you're connected to and the dungeon their request is in is able to be visited. Okay, thinking about it, trying to do this in the current table doesn't feel like it's worth it to me, but if it was possible to make some sort of flowchart designating which missions or conditions you might need to do for each particular Pokemon, it could work out, I suppose. That's still something else for the most part though...
::::::::Actually, maybe I'm just misunderstanding? Perhaps a prerequisite column could be okay. For example, you need to reach a certain rank to unlock the dungeon to connect with Articuno, and we would put x Rank in that column. Doing that unlocks the Moltres dungeon, and for Moltres we'd put Articuno in the pre-requisite column there, and so on? [[User:VioletPumpkin|VioletPumpkin]] ([[User talk:VioletPumpkin|talk]]) 01:51, 3 July 2016 (UTC)
:::::::::If there's anyone you can't '''meet''' by connecting with nearby Pokemon or just by playing through the storyline, who you need to specifically search out and talk to to meet them (who you can ''skip''—even if they're impossible to miss at some point, if you're not absolutely ''required'' to talk to them, you could always skip by them and forget...), then they'd probably need a note—somehow—about where to meet them. ''Maybe'' it wouldn't be worth it for everyone... (I'm still not totally sure, simply because I'm having to rely on others, I don't have the game to experience things for myself.)
:::::::::If the Pokemon with random locations for missions at least always have the same mission, then it might be possible to just say "Random" for the location (if there's ''any'' apparent limit on that, like "on the Air Continent" or Rank X-dungeon or something, it might be worth including that--but not crucial if even that's a lot of work).
:::::::::Ideally, a dungeon's rank requirement should simply be on its page so that (as long as the location is fixed and it's not "Random") people can just click on the link to figure out that sort of prerequisite. And Moltres and Articuno are already noted as having a connection. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 03:03, 3 July 2016 (UTC)
::::::::::Fair enough, I understand where you're coming from at least. The easiest way to test it would probably be to avoid talking to the non-Ghost Rotom forms and seeing if any of them still appear as traveling Pokemon, since they don't have connections with other Pokemon and don't appear as wild Pokemon to my knowledge (encountering a generic wild Pokemon in a dungeon is another way to 'meet' that Pokemon that I forgot about earlier). At least in my limited experience of a single (rather thorough) playthrough, meeting Pokemon only ever seemed to only be completely cosmetic, but if the Rotom forms don't ever show up in dungeons under those circumstances, I agree that it'd be necessary. We can cross that bridge when we get there, though. [[User:VioletPumpkin|VioletPumpkin]] ([[User talk:VioletPumpkin|talk]]) 05:40, 3 July 2016 (UTC)
:Oops, didn't see this. Just to answer VioletPumpkin's first question, I was talking specifically about the locations of missions.

== Request ==

Hi! I have a request which I hope you will be happy to do. For the [[Connection Orb]] page, will you be happy to split up the table into the different sets (1,2,3... [ignoring any changes that might be made to the table later per discussion above]) so that they each have a separate edit-able section? It's probably not the most sensible thing to do, but the table is way too laggy for me to edit, and probably for other users too, and I'm wanting to edit it as I go along, rather than doing it all in one huge bunch at the end. Unless you can think of another alternative.

Also while I have a staff member's attention, will you be able to change the template for Mystery Dungeon items so that they show up a 4th buy and sell price? It's locked so I can't edit it. Thanks! :) --[[User:Wowy|'''Wowy''']][[User talk:Wowy|'''(토크)''']] 10:57, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
:First and foremost, you can always update Game locations data on individual Pokemon pages. And I currently think the table should stay as it is/focus on ''connection'' (as opposed to ''meet'') requirements, with location noted as "Random" if it's not apparently fixed..
:If I have a "big" concern about splitting the table, it's probably that that'd mean 30+ subsections for the tables, which is a bit extreme. (Not terrible, but not so pretty either.)
:(Just to check, when you say it's too laggy, do you mean you can't even get a preview? Or that it takes several/many seconds to preview? If it's the latter (which is what happens for me), that shouldn't be a terrible impediment; just concentrate on filling in the table/code, and only worry about preview sparingly.)
:I'm not entirely satisfied with just adding a 4th price option... Not with the fact that pretty much every MD game seems to have a different price for some items like the Heal Seed (...will that continue forever?), nor with the fact that all those prices are only disambiguated by cumbersome tooltipped notes.

I've got [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/User:Nescientist/Niantic,_Inc. an article] in my userspace that I want to see in the mainspace. So, what's the procedure? The article seems very much notable (especially in these days), I believe it's decent, the page is not protected or anything, and if we'd not link to wikipedia all the time, it would be linked to in popular places. So, move it, then link to it? Just to be safe, and just to be sure to waste your time once again. :D [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 07:49, 14 July 2016 (UTC)

== Starting sentences with conjunctions ==

Not at all a Bulbapedia rule, more so a rule of the English Language, albeit a disputed rule, so don't show me a source that contradicts me, as I know full well you could find loads. The point is, sentences begining with conjunctions have no place on a formal website such as this one. You'd perhaps find it where the sentence represents a voice: a blog post or speech within a novel. That particular point of trivia looks sloppy as it is written currently and I, truly, ponder why it is you thought 'Seen as' didn't make for a coherent formal scentence and how you could possibly think it was better to revert the edit. I'll concede that 'Seen as' may not comply with the general style of Bulbapedia trivia, but niether does 'because'. I think an admin should presnt a greater example, and show a better way of fixing the problem, rather than just reverting the edit like a user who began three days ago.

* {{p|Pikachu}}, {{p|Clefairy}}, {{p|Jigglypuff}}, {{p|Hitmonlee}}, {{p|Hitmonchan}}, {{p|Jynx}}, {{p|Electabuzz}}, and {{p|Magmar}} are all capable of hatcing from {{pkmn|eggs}}, despite this being impossible in any [[main series]] game. These Pokémon's pre-evolved forms were not introduced until [[Generation II]], nor was the [[breeding]] mechanic, while only [[Generation I]] Pokémon are featured in Pokémon GO. This is, likely, the reason for the discrepacy.

This would be a better way to present the trivia, though I'll query the "notability" of the point. I added points of trivia concerning simalur discrepacys regarding Pokémon in Pokémon GO being capable of moves they can not learn in the main series; such as Golem lerning Mud Shot, and Grimer lerning Acid. They were all removed for not being deemed "notable". [[User:05308|Diamond]] [[Lanturn (Pokémon)|Lanturn]] [[User talk:05308|CodeName: 05308]] 08:31, 30 July 2016 (UTC)
:...https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjunction_(grammar)
:I think you're thinking of coordinating conjunctions like "but", as opposed to subordinating conjunctions like "because". They are quite different beasts. (In fact, before your comment here, I wouldn't even have thought to call "because" a conjunction of any sort.) Plenty of the examples the above page gives for subordinating conjunctions are easily used at the start of a sentence, like "As soon as [Ash got home]", "Even if [he lost]", "Until [he won]".
:And "seeing as" (not "seen as") is functionally speaking exactly the same as "because". Anything that can simply substitute for "because" ''must'' function exactly like it (or close enough to make no difference). If it were really that bad, you'd have to restructure the whole sentence, not just substitute something else in for "because".

== New move powers in GO ==

So, did you undo my edit in the list primarily because you can't get back the old move powers? If so, does it matter? As I said, it's been official and publicly available, and I believe that's what a wiki should cover. After all, we do, for example, cover glitches that have meanwhile been patched, or websites that are now defunct; and I think we should be. Would Niantic rename Gyms, we would certainly not ''not'' mention they were once called like that, would we? It may not be particularly helpful (on the list), but I didn't add it because I thought it was. I've basically done the asterisks because they're at [[list of moves]] (although I admit there are fewer of those there, at least currently), and the Go list is clearly thought to mirror that somewhat. Would you also disagree to add the changed move powers to the moves' pages, as we do for the core series? [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 15:56, 31 July 2016 (UTC)
:Half because like I said. Half because asterisk notes are not an ideal way of doing it: they make the reader think there's something "important" there, when (again, since you can't get it back) it's not. Personally, I don't even think an extra column would be worth it. (Not ''worthless'', but far too little worth for the bloat/whatnot.) The nearest solution I've come up with is adding something to the main GO page's Version history.
:If you have to download a patch and it's optional, then arguably we do ''need'' to keep covering it, since some people may still have old versions. (The hypothetical about Gyms, in particular, is pretty different than move powers. Everyone knows a "Gym". Everyone does not know every move's exact power. And a defunct website is also fairly different; it's not a ''changed'' website (which is also different from changed ''move stats'').) But this was changed server-side, so you absolutely can't hold onto it or get it back.
:...I would not, personally, really be happy with tt notes on individual moves' pages about old stats. But you also don't especially need to use tt there; you could just write out that these stats got changed. That's quite fine by me. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 16:19, 31 July 2016 (UTC)
::Ok, I only mentioned patches, defunct websites or renaming Gyms (I should've chosen Pokéstops :P) as a great way to illustrate that "you can't get it back" is a weak argument. I'm definitely against an extra column (because that would be half empty?). I'm much more concerned about conformity that about having all info everywhere. And we do have tt's for core series move power changes on the individual pages. So, if you could maybe do whatever is in your mind at, say, {{m|Bug Bite}}, I could do the rest!?
:: So, could we possibly settle on the following then:
::# Adding a subsection at [[List of modified moves]] (and rewording the intro)? Seems better than at the main Go page; we could link to the new subsection from there instead.
::# Removing asterisks from [[list of moves]]?
::# The thing about Bug Bite I just mentioned? (We may also opt to not do that if we do 1.)
::Thank you! [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 16:49, 31 July 2016 (UTC)
:::For Bug Bite, you'd just add something like, "Prior to an update to Niantic's servers on July 30, Bug Bite had a power of [X]."
:::List of moves is very different from anything related to this change in GO. The asterisks on that page are about things in different Generations...things people playing a game in that generation will be dealing with and may need to know. Those aren't getting removed.
:::I'm also not all for putting this GO data on the list of modified moves either. Again, those are things you ''can'' go back to, depending on which generation you play. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 17:05, 31 July 2016 (UTC)

== The route to improve the damage article ==

You'd be my best guess on a user to assist in this math- and programming-intensive issue (no offense, {{u|BulbaBot}}); and I hope you're capable of TeX for the remainder of this post. So, just to say it out load, the obvious way for the rounding problem is to remove the current formula, replace it by the correct one, and update the article accordingly. This would involve updating the image formulas over at the Archives, so we should update the images and the articles kinda simultaneously.

So, Tiddlywinks, I want to ask you, will you be my TeX-to-Archives-image converter, from this day on to the end of... tomorrow? So please answer with "Yes, I will."

I would then create a userpage with TeX-code where images should be, and alert you once I'm done, so you could wreck havoc at the Archives and update the damage article accordingly. I guess this should be the proper way to do it.

I would personally be going for \cdot over \times, and for including \lfloor and \rfloor in the formulas as well (and not ''only'' mentioning them in prose), but I would like your opinion on that. Additionally, I would be interested in whether they're actually actively rounding down, or they're just doing some kind of float-to-int-conversion. The code's in the Smogon reference that's on the page, but I cannot reliably make sense of it (and ''possibly'' you could!?) Again, if you don't speak TeX (there's no user template for it, unfortunately :P), I'm sure we could find another method. Thanks. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 10:54, 10 August 2016 (UTC)
:I'm not really sure how everyone else makes images for formulas, but I've been using [http://www.codecogs.com/eqnedit.php this]. Perhaps you can use that too. If you'd still like me to plug in those formulas, though, I can do it. (If you do it yourself, I'll suggest that the variables for "Level" and "(Base)Power" be written out as such, whereas the Attack/Defense variables can perhaps be left as "A"/"D", which will make it a little harder for people to assume it means the physical stats and a little easier for us to define those in text as ''dependent'' on the move category.)
:I will note also, the images on the Damage page will take a good while to update on the page once they've been updated on the Archives. (About a month, from past experience.) ...But it may be possible to write text that pretty much works for either formula.
:Rounding/integers: the Smogon article says right out that "''÷ always denotes the in-game unsigned divmod function, i.e. the unrounded/truncated integer division''". Going by that, the formula on the Dragonflycave page that has <code>floor(2 * L / 5 + 2)</code> should probably technically be <code>(2 * floor(L / 5) + 2)</code>, which could make a difference if you had something like level=13 (floor(2*2.6) = 5, whereas 2*floor(2.6) = 4). By contrast, Smogon says applying any modifier actually ends with a straight ''rounding'' (decimals <=0.5 are rounded down, otherwise it's rounded up). It may also be worth noting that, according to Smogon/for Gen V at least, there are a few modifiers that come before the random damage factor. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 15:28, 10 August 2016 (UTC)
::Thanks for spotting the division thing. Looking at both sources (Smogon basically has the same formula than Dragonfly, it's just us who've re-written it), I guess it should technically be <code>floor((2*L)/5) + 2</code> and not what you said, which shouldn't make a difference (5 in your example either way). The tool is basically a TeX-image converter, but it'd be cool if you could still account for the Archives part (not being confirmed on Archives and such), would you? I don't know yet whether it will be possible to write text that works either way (I guess not if we're renaming). I thought the images update on bp if I edit the article? If not, maybe we should (if it's text that only works the new way) upload new images instead of updating old ones?
::Anyway, got opinions regarding last message's last paragraph? Also, there's a tradeoff between having <code>Damage=...*Modifier [next line] where Modifier=a*b*...</code> vs. having <code>Damage=...*a*b*...</code> (image size vs. inventing/defining "Modifier"); got an opinion on that as well? [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 19:33, 10 August 2016 (UTC)
:::Oh, yeah, I managed to miss how Smogon's page said (2*level), not 2*level. I might've just gotten confused by looking at both the pages. Yeah, in that case, Dragonflycave's format is practically speaking the same thing.
:::Got it, if you can't do the uploading, sure. (Trying to put a bit of time in at the Archives might be a good idea for future needs too. =P )
:::I think there are cases where an image might update right away, but I wouldn't bet on it. And uploading new images just because the old ones are cached isn't really appropriate.
:::The floors can be included, and the times operator should probably be something more visible than \cdot (\times just because that's apparently our standard in most other formulas). Since there's already a modifier image in the article currently, and putting them together would definitely make the formula quite long, I think it's best to just keep them separate.

::::Thanks for the fast reply. Makes sense. Just wanna add that I guess ''most'' modifiers are applied before the random damage factor.

{{indent}}
1) I don't see any real need to split the things that change stat stages from the things the modify stats in any other way. The latter is already differentiated by being labeled '''Other''' in the table.

2) A tip in regards to Foul Play: don't use a phrase like "stat modifiers" too broadly. It especially should not be used to attempt to refer to stat stages (or "boost levels"), which already have a well-recognized name—trying to refer to that with the words "stat modifiers" is only confusing. It shouldn't even be used to refer to all "modifiers", including stat stages, simply because it's ill-defined. Something like "stat stage and all other modifiers" would be a much clearer way to identify all modifiers. (Really, "modifiers" is only clear when directly contrasted with stat stages.)

[[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 22:09, 12 August 2016 (UTC)
:The need is the max/min limit. And '''Other''' is not (currently) used exclusively for that. (But that's all rather minor.) I was using "stat modifiers" specifically because that's what our stat page uses (like for virtually everything), and not "stat stages" (as a term) or "boost levels".

:::Yes, I know, I checked, I read the code, and I'm quite sure I understood it. Nothing changes except for the Attack stat and the Attack stat stages being taken from the target instead of the user. Yet that's not what the current descriptions says. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 22:42, 12 August 2016 (UTC)
::::I wasn't talking about the code or that sort of thing. I was only talking about the description.
::::If your problem is still something to do with Reflect, Multiscale, or Defense: the effect description currently says it "references the user for all other modifiers to '''''Attack'''''" (and did originally, but I got confused by your edit summary when I redid it). Only Attack. Not Reflect, Multiscale, or any Defense modifiers in general. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 01:35, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
:::::I'm sorry, I just thought you were unsure whether I actually understand what the move does. As you know, I was recently very much into everything that has to do with damage calculation, including code.
:::::Therefore, the current description is still not correct, as burn and many Abilities never modify "Attack". Please understand that this is not some kind of personal vendetta or anything. I do not want my specific wording to be on the description, not even my specific terms. We both want the description to be correct and clear, but if we cannot manage to have it correct ''and'' avoid saying "nothing else is different"/"everything else acts as normal", then we should not avoid saying that and have it incorrect, but we should have it correct and not avoid saying that. That's a very bad tradeoff, it's just not worth it then. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 08:38, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
::::::Burn: now ''that'' bugs me, actually. I can't tell from the Gen V code what's actually going on, but Gen I and II do seem to account for a burn on the ''Attack'', not the damage. (Also, burn is always described as lowering Attack... If it's ''technically'' cutting physical damage, that's an annoying distinction to hide.)
::::::Abilities: again, as I wrote it, the description is only worried about all other modifiers '''to Attack'''. Abilities that don't modify Attack are completely outside of that consideration. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 15:36, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
:::::::You're right about the burn in Gen I and II. I guess you can technically call that wording correct (and super-careful) then. So I'd be ok with it, if "type" was removed.
:::::::You should hopefully be able to tell what's going on after you've thoroughly read and considered my damage page :P (FYI, I've also analyzed/used [https://github.com/Zarel/honko-damagecalc] and [https://github.com/Zarel/Pokemon-Showdown], my wording is in accordance to the calculation, and my damage values are in accordance to [https://pokemonshowdown.com/damagecalc/ their calculator's]) [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 19:56, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
::::::::If "you should be able to tell [...]" means you still have a problem with Abilities, then I don't see it, no. You'll just have to do a better job explaining if you think you still need to convince me. Maybe give specific examples.
::::::::Trusting derived programs is fraught with hazards. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 20:05, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
:::::::::It was not supposed to mean it. And I didn't trust those programs entirely, I just used them to doublecheck. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 20:08, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
::::::::::Actually, is there any reason not use their code as "source"? They've clearly analyzed the game's code, and they are sooo super accurate for anything I have checked so far: If there was any contradiction, it was always others who had it wrong. It's far more accurate than we (currently) are or "regular" Smogon is, and also slightly more accurate than the Smogon article (that misses Whirlpool etc.). (Dragonfly is super, but not as concrete/detailed.)
::::::::::Interestingly, from checking their code, those Minimize-effect moves do not seem to "always hit" if the foe had used Minimize, but to just take their (base) [[accuracy]] no matter what; doesn't make a difference for Body Slam, but certainly for Dragon Rush. So, I'll be testing, and if they're correct there as well, I'd like to just treat it as the most accurate "source" we have, and go start "correct" everything that's wrong/imprecise. Ok?
::::::::::Also, do you have a place you'll be doing that in-battle modification split? If so, I'd be willing to start adding how everything affects/modifies stats to a table/tables (i.e. everything bar stat stages). And also power at [[power]]. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 21:18, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
:::::::::::You say it's clear they've analyzed the game, but I know of no particular reason it is. Nor do I have any idea how they've analyzed the games. We prefer to avoid assumptions. I'm not comfortable with just assuming those calculators are ''truly'' accurate, especially regarding some new mechanic or change. You can find some support, but don't just take their word (so to speak) for it—especially if there's no way (or hardly any) to be sure of the difference (like, for example, a burn halving physical damage instead of Attack).
:::::::::::I'm trying to balance a handful of things at the moment. I'll hope to make some more progress surrounding this damage stuff this weekend, here and there (though not necessarily "finish" (maybe, but not at all sure)). [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 21:44, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
::::::::::::Oh, I'm not talking of the calculator. I'm talking of their source code that's available on GitHub. There are comments in there that clearly show they basically (try to) port the game code, like [https://github.com/Zarel/Pokemon-Showdown/blob/master/data/moves.js here]. I'm almost sure they can just read and understand the original.
::::::::::::Yes, thanks. I guess neither of us thought that this will end up in some "project" as big as this. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 21:52, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
:::::::::::::Yes, by the calculator I meant more or less their source. Looking at the page you linked, I don't see anything that necessarily suggests they've looked at the games' source. All I can tell is they've apparently implemented things to function like the games. Is there a particular comment that indicated to you that they read the games' code? [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 22:10, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
::::::::::::::Yes, [https://github.com/Zarel/honko-damagecalc/blob/aa86908265db6d452606b3b69fca71323051e367/js/damage.js this] comes to my mind:
::::::::::::::"''// GameFreak rounds DOWN on .5''", and the entire "pokeround" rounding function they have no reason to include (in places where they include them) otherwise.
::::::::::::::They have also rewritten everything for Gen VI (by intact backwards-compatability), whereas if I had no access to the code, I would just have copy-pasted Gen V. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 22:21, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
{{indent}}I'll punt a bit and see what other staff think. A good part of this is just trust, especially as communicated by someone in a position to know. I've heard from trustworthy people that UPC is good. This calculator seems ''likely'' okay, but I'd still really like that actual trust factor (and/or clear testament or something from the developers). [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 22:39, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
:Ok then. Just to clarify, it's not just the move calculator, but also their online battle simulator (else we had no accuracy etc.) But I'd like to point out that my trust in it in large part comes from checking what they have (in-game, UPC, the Smogon article, ...; they're right in contradictions; Minimize accuracy). And that it's virtually impossible to add details such as the burn thing if you trust noone (which you don't, but anyway).

== About the page splits mentioned on your userpage... ==

Are you ever going to finish them? It's been over two weeks since you said, "It's been over two weeks." [[User:Sumwun|sumwun]] ([[User talk:Sumwun|talk]]) 01:08, 12 August 2016 (UTC)

== Accuracy, accuracy, evasion, power ==

(Has nothing to do strictly with the damage article, but) I guess there are clear parallels for calculating "effective" normal/standard stats (i.e. Atk/Def/SpAtk/SpDef/Init), accuracy, evasion, and power:
# Start with the (base) Atk[/...] stat seen in-game / the [[accuracy|move accuracy]] seen in-game / a value of "1"/100[%] / the move's [[power]] seen in-game (or as calculated by special routines)
# Modify with [multiply by] the Atk[/...] stat stages / the {{stat|accuracy}} stat stages / the {{stat|evasion}} stat stages / [nothing for power]
# [modify SpDef with unique Sandstorm modifier here]
# Modify with [multiply by] effects of items, Abilities (iff they affect this here)
(And technically speaking, I'd therefore prefer to say Gravity and anything other than accuracy stat stages modify [[accuracy|(move) accuracy]] rather than the user's {{stat|accuracy}} stat, and have items/Abilities listed in that article rather than the stat page.) Just prominently saying/reminding, in case you intent to reformulate/work on any of that (or any moves/Abilities affected) in a moderately larger scale. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 10:52, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
:Edit: Effects of [[Badges]] come after 2 in early Gens, and 4 would also include {{m|Tailwind}}. Also, evasion is not calculated all on its own, but the evasion stat stages are simply subtracted from those of accuracy (in step 2) [http://www.dragonflycave.com/mechanics/battle#accuracy] (so technically, there is basically no "evasion stat", but only evasion stat stages). [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 16:53, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
::If nothing else, [[Statistic#Accuracy]] has the actual accuracy formula. I think that makes it a far better place to link to than [[Accuracy]]. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 17:24, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
:::Actually, I guess you're right. (And this further justifies my proposed move of [[accuracy]].) Still, a split (or better just a mention somewhere, coz the table's so nice) between "affects stat stages" and "doesn't" would be nice. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 17:30, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
::::The In-battle modification table is nice (pretty), but I've been thinking it's a little cramped/haphazard/something, too. I intend to split it up a bit in the process of vetting its contents. It won't be the same kind of pretty, but I think it'll be a bit better in its own way too. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 17:39, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
:::::After thinking about it, I guess our formula is also wrong then. It at least contradicts what I just said Dragonflycave says. Have the user have +2 accuracy and the target +1 evasion (Gen V+), our formula gives <code>5/4</code>, but theirs gives <code>4/3</code>.

:::::::I'm quite sure our formula is off after Gen II (and that Dragonfly and the Showdown guys are right). I'll probably try to check in-game some time soon (and try to get a miss with a 75% move at -1 vs. a -2 opponent).
:::::::When you edit articles about accuracy (nice formulation btw), you may want to also (my favorite) limit {{cat|Moves that cannot miss}} to damaging (physical/special) moves (and remove status moves currently in it). Or to moves than can affect an opponent (and add weather-inducing moves, entry hazards, the Terrain moves, {{m|Sketch}}, {{m|Telekinesis}}, {{m|Miracle Eye}}, {{m|Odor Sleuth}}, {{m|Psych Up}}, {{m|Role Play}}, {{m|Mud Sport}}, {{m|Water Sport}}, {{m|Aromatherapy}}, {{m|Heal Bell}}, {{m|Block}}, {{m|Howl}}, {{m|Gravity}}, {{m|Tailwind}}, {{m|Guard Split}}, {{m|Power Split}}, {{m|Wonder Room}}, {{m|Magic Room}}, {{m|Heal Pulse}}, {{m|Reflect Type}}, {{m|Bestow}}, {{m|Rototiller}}, {{m|Sticky Web}}, {{m|Ion Deluge}}, {{m|Flower Shield}}, {{m|Electrify}}, {{m|Fairy Lock}}, {{m|Play Nice}}, {{m|Confide}}).

[[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 21:10, 16 August 2016 (UTC)

:::::::::I tested, and our formula appears to indeed be incorrect after Gen II, and Dragonfly and Showdown seem to be correct on this.

== About moving "Magnagate" article to "Magnagate Dungeon", as well as maybe moving or deleting all the named Magnagate Dungeon articles ==

Since I've been analysing and researching the internal data of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity, I have discovered that there is no set list of Magnagate Dungeon names, they are determined on two separate lists. The first list in which determines the first name, in this case "Alluring". Then the next comes from the second list of names in which determines the second name of the dungeon, in this case "Crevasse". So the name of the dungeon becomes "Alluring Crevasse". And there's more to it too, the first list of names determines the enemy Pokémon and items that appear, while the second list of names determines the music and the dungeon layout and textures.

So I'm just wondering about the [[Magnagate]] article, should it be moved to [[Magnagate Dungeon]]? The article itself seems like it hasn't had any activity for quite a while and needs improvement. Also, what should be done about all the named Magnagate Dungeons that are listed, such as [[Forgotten Rock Formation]]? Should they also be moved into an article in which lists all the Magnagate Dungeons? Or should they be deleted altogether? Lemme know what you think.—[[User:Platinum Lucario|Platinum Lucario]] ([[User talk:Platinum Lucario|talk]]) 16:03, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
:Can you start out by telling me how many possibilities there are for the first and last parts of a name?
:And I'm not sure if I'm missing something from your explanation...but it seems none of the other dungeons with "Forgotten" (like [[Forgotten Maze]]) match the Forgotten Rock Formation's encounter list.
:My first inclination (with reservations, given the "Forgotten" stuff above) is just to describe how each piece of the name affects the dungeon on the Magnagate page, and the resulting combinations don't need dungeon pages, but that definitely needs to discussed with other staff first (possibly even up to the EB).
:And "Magnagate" ''seems'' alright to me... Not sure what's better about "Magnagate Dungeon", but I've never played (or been super interested in, really) any of the MD games. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 16:20, 18 August 2016 (UTC)
::Yeah, I was thinking that too. And hm... seems like whenever a Magnagate Dungeon is generated in the game's data, it might also be selecting a Pokémon encounter group, as of random. But I'll need to look into it more, and I'll have to see what determines the items that appear in a dungeon too.
::And there's also another reason why I thought "Magnagate Dungeon" would be more fitting for the article, 'cause I also noticed that there's no article about the "Magnagate" in the actual story of the game, in which uses Entercards, however there's one close to that in which does explain what would fit into a Magnagate article too, which is the [[Entercard]] article. From playing and researching the game, there is the Magnagate Dungeons created by an Entercard, in the story of the game. And I understand you haven't played the game or been interested in it. I just like to research the data in games and find out how it functions when certain bytes are changed. As well as discovering unused content in the game too (such as the Exit tile, which functions in the same way as the stairs).—[[User:Platinum Lucario|Platinum Lucario]] ([[User talk:Platinum Lucario|talk]]) 16:54, 18 August 2016 (UTC)

Hi! I'm sorry, but I have to inform you, as a rule we require that templates (and new pages in general) be approved by the {{bp|Editorial Board}} before being put in the mainspace. When you have a page you want to put in the mainspace, you can put the {{template|mainspace}} template at the top, with ''status=complete'' if it's all ready.

:Yeah, sorry about that. I did however finish the template I was working on.

Here is the '''[[User:Rmkane/Template:Exp_items|Template:Exp items]]''' by the way. How should I get this approved? I have not created a page/template on this wiki before.

:This:
::<code><nowiki>{{Exp items|Ultra Ball|10|Hyper Potion|10|Revive|10|Razz Berry|10}}</nowiki></code>

By creating your account you are now able to edit pages, join discussions, and expand the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia. Before you jump in, here are some ground rules:
* Be nice to everyone. It's in the {{bp|code of conduct}}.
* Make good edits. Preview them before you save to make sure they're perfect the first time around.
* Use {{bp|wikicode}} and {{bp|link templates}} when adding content to a page.
* Use proper grammar and spelling, and read the {{bp|manual of style}}.
* You can't create a userpage until you've added to the encyclopedia. It's a privilege. See the {{bp|userspace policy}}.
* Use {{bp|Talk page policy|talk pages}} to resolve editing disputes. Don't "edit war," or constantly re-edit/undo the same thing on a page.
* If you have a question about something, be proactive. Take a look at our {{bp|FAQ}}. If you're still stuck, ask for help. The {{bp|staff}} won't bite.
* Sign all talk page posts with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>). This will turn into your name and the time you wrote the comment.
* For more handy links, see the {{bp|welcome|welcome portal}}.

Hi! I'm sorry, but I have to inform you, as a rule we require that templates (and new pages in general) be approved by the {{bp|Editorial Board}} before being put in the mainspace. When you have a page you want to put in the mainspace, you can put the {{template|mainspace}} template at the top, with ''status=complete'' if it's all ready. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 00:11, 29 July 2016 (UTC)

:Yeah, sorry about that. I did however finish the template I was working on. I was creating it after the [[Experience#Player_levels|Pokémon experience table]] was updated to include my suggested changes. I was just trying to make the wiki-text more compact. Here is the [[User:Rmkane/Template:Exp_items|Exp items Template]] by the way. How should I get this approved? I have not created a page/template on this wiki before.

:This:
::<code><nowiki>{{Exp items|Ultra Ball|10|Hyper Potion|10|Revive|10|Razz Berry|10}}</nowiki></code>

:Ends up looking better than:
::<code><nowiki>[[File:GO Ultra Ball.png|24px|link=Ultra Ball]]×10 [[File:GO Hyper Potion.png|24px|link=Hyper Potion]]×10 [[File:GO Revive.png|24px|link=Revive]]×10 [[File:GO Razz Berry.png|24px|link=Razz Berry]]×10</nowiki></code>
