'''Machamp''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カイリキー''' ''Kairiky'') is a {{type|Fighting}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Machoke}} when [[Trade Evolution|traded]] or when exposed to a [[Linking Cord]]. It is the final form of {{p|Machop}}.

(Refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data→Evolution data]] for more details.)

Machamp can [[Gigantamax]] into '''Gigantamax Machamp''' if it has the {{DL|Gigantamax|Gigantamax Factor}}.

==Biology==
[[File:Machamp Shove VII OD.png|150px|thumb|left|Machamp Shove]]
Machamp is a {{wp|humanoid}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with four well-muscled arms. It has bluish-gray skin, red eyes, and large, pale, yellow lips. On its head, there are three brown ridges right above its eyes. It has two arms on each side of its body: a pair located in the normal position, and another pair directly above that attaches on the top of the shoulders. It has black markings that resemble briefs<ref>[https://www.pokemon.jp/special/kairiky_gym/know/secret/#c04 ゴーリキーとカイリキーのパンツのヒミツ - カイリキーのヒミツ｜キレてる！カイリキーGYM｜ポケモンだいすきクラブ] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20151127120008/http://www.pokemon.jp/special/kairiky_gym/know/secret/#c04 archived])</ref> and wears a golden power-save belt that resembles a {{wp|championship belt}}. Its legs have considerable muscle tone, and its feet have two toes each.

Machamp are said to know every martial arts style in the world. It punches extremely quickly, throwing 500 punches a second. With only one hand, it can move a mountain. In [[Generation VII]], {{m|Strength}} was its signature move. Because of its four arms, it can hit from a multitude of angles and pin all of its foe's limbs down at once. Its arms also allow it to attack and defend simultaneously. The four arms react much faster than Machamp can think. However, it has poor dexterity, and cannot handle delicate work without its arms becoming tangled. The belt it wears restricts its muscle activity, but it can cause consequences if removed. Being the result of an [[Evolution]] via [[Trade|trading]], Machamp is rarely found in the wild, though they can be found in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountains}}. In [[Alola]], Machamp is used as a [[Poké Ride|Ride Pokémon]] called Machamp Shove, where Machamp carries humans on its arms while moving large rocks out fo the way.

In [[Generation II]], {{m|Vital Throw}} was its [[signature move]].

===Forms===
Machamp has a [[Gigantamax]] form.

As Gigantamax Machamp, it swells to enormous proportions and acquires immeasurable strength. Due to [[Gigantamax]]ing, its arms are filled with Gigantamax energy, making its punches as hard as bomb blasts. Its bluish-gray skin becomes darker. The ridges on its head are also darker, with the middle ridge becoming longer. Its eyes become bright yellow. The neck extends with black markings. The four fists are now dark orange, with orange-yellow veins connecting to two orange spots on each arm. The belt extends with several more notches. The black markings now extend down the legs and stop above the ankles. Three red clouds circle around its waist.

Gigantamax Machamp is the only known Pokémon capable of using the [[G-Max Move]] {{m|G-Max Chi Strike}}.

==Trivia==
* In the [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue beta]], Machamp was originally known as "Ju-Doh". This name is a corruption of ''judo'', a fighting style.
*Machamp could be seen as a counterpart to {{p|Alakazam}}. They are both the last stage of a three-part evolutionary line, they reach their final stage by [[Trade|trading]], level up at a Medium Slow rate, and they both have a 75% male gender ratio. Also, Machamp excels at the {{stat|Attack}} stat, while Alakazam excels at the {{Stat|Special Attack}} stat. Their evolutionary lines are also next to each other in the National Pokédex. Moreover, a girl in [[Oreburgh City]] will [[List of in-game trades#Diamond Pearl and Platinum|trade]] her Abra for a Machop. Additionally, their base friendship is the same at 70, and all Pokémon in both of their respective evolutionary lines are in the Human-Like Egg Group. Finally, while Machamp has a [[Gigantamax]] form, Alakazam has a [[Mega Evolution]].
** Machamp also can be seen as a counterpart to the {{p|Conkeldurr}} evolutionary line. Both of them are {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon whose Attack is their highest stat. They both have below average speed. They share the same base stat total. They both have same gender ratio, they both have three-evolutionary stages, and they both reach their respective final-evolutionary stage through trading.
** Besides Alakazam and Conkeldurr, Machamp can also be seen as a counterpart to {{p|Gengar}}. All four Pokémon can be obtained through [[trade Evolution]]. Gengar and Machamp are also capable of Gigantamaxing starting in [[Generation VIII]] and belong to two [[Gym Leader]]s in the [[Galar]] [[region]], depending on which game is played; Machamp belongs to [[Bea]] in [[Pokémon Sword and Shield|Pokémon Sword]], while Gengar belongs to [[Allister]] in Pokémon Shield.
* Machamp's Japanese name, ''Kairiky'', is similar to the Japanese name of the move {{m|Strength}}.
** Additionally, in Mandarin and Cantonese Chinese, Machamp shares its name with Strength; {{tt|怪力 ''Guàilì''|Monstrous Strength}} and {{tt|怪力 ''Gwaailihk''|Monstrous Strength}} respectively.

===Origin===
Machamp appears to be based on a {{wp|Bodybuilding|bodybuilder}} or {{wp|Wrestling|wrestler}}. Seeing as it has more than two arms and blue skin, Machamp might also be based on a Hindu god, perhaps {{wp|Shiva}} or {{wp|Vishnu}}. Its muscular design, head crests, and large lips could also be a reference to the ''[[wp:Kinnikuman|Kinnikuman]]'' series.

Gigantamax Machamp, appearance-wise, resembles the general depictions of the giants from the ''{{wp|Ultraman|Ultra}}'' series, especially with its eyes and head ornaments. These particular warriors are protectors of the universe and often could only be gigantic for a limited time (much like Dynamax as a whole).

====Name origin====
Machamp may be a combination of ''macho'' (manly; Spanish and Portuguese for male) and ''champ''.

Kairiky may be derived from 怪力 ''kairiki'' (superhuman strength), which is the name of its {{pkmn|category}} in Japanese.

'''Machamp''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カイリキー''' ''Kairiky'') is a {{type|Fighting}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Machoke}} when [[Trade Evolution|traded]] or when exposed to a [[Linking Cord]]. It is the final form of {{p|Machop}}.

(Refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data→Evolution data]] for more details.)

Machamp can [[Gigantamax]] into '''Gigantamax Machamp''' if it has the {{DL|Gigantamax|Gigantamax Factor}}.

==Biology==
[[File:Machamp Shove VII OD.png|150px|thumb|left|Machamp Shove]]
Machamp is a {{wp|humanoid}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with four well-muscled arms. It has bluish-gray skin, red eyes, and large, pale, yellow lips. On its head, there are three brown ridges right above its eyes. It has two arms on each side of its body: a pair located in the normal position, and another pair directly above that attaches on the top of the shoulders. It has black markings that resemble briefs<ref>[https://www.pokemon.jp/special/kairiky_gym/know/secret/#c04 ゴーリキーとカイリキーのパンツのヒミツ - カイリキーのヒミツ｜キレてる！カイリキーGYM｜ポケモンだいすきクラブ] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20151127120008/http://www.pokemon.jp/special/kairiky_gym/know/secret/#c04 archived])</ref> and wears a golden power-save belt that resembles a {{wp|championship belt}}. Its legs have considerable muscle tone, and its feet have two toes each.

Machamp are said to know every martial arts style in the world. It punches extremely quickly, throwing 500 punches a second. With only one hand, it can move a mountain. In [[Generation VII]], {{m|Strength}} was its signature move. Because of its four arms, it can hit from a multitude of angles and pin all of its foe's limbs down at once. Its arms also allow it to attack and defend simultaneously. The four arms react much faster than Machamp can think. However, it has poor dexterity, and cannot handle delicate work without its arms becoming tangled. The belt it wears restricts its muscle activity, but it can cause consequences if removed. Being the result of an [[Evolution]] via [[Trade|trading]], Machamp is rarely found in the wild, though they can be found in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountains}}. In [[Alola]], Machamp is used as a [[Poké Ride|Ride Pokémon]] called Machamp Shove, where Machamp carries humans on its arms while moving large rocks out fo the way.

In [[Generation II]], {{m|Vital Throw}} was its [[signature move]].

===Forms===
Machamp has a [[Gigantamax]] form.

As Gigantamax Machamp, it swells to enormous proportions and acquires immeasurable strength. Due to [[Gigantamax]]ing, its arms are filled with Gigantamax energy, making its punches as hard as bomb blasts. Its bluish-gray skin becomes darker. The ridges on its head are also darker, with the middle ridge becoming longer. Its eyes become bright yellow. The neck extends with black markings. The four fists are now dark orange, with orange-yellow veins connecting to two orange spots on each arm. The belt extends with several more notches. The black markings now extend down the legs and stop above the ankles. Three red clouds circle around its waist.

Gigantamax Machamp is the only known Pokémon capable of using the [[G-Max Move]] {{m|G-Max Chi Strike}}.

==Trivia==
* In the [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue beta]], Machamp was originally known as "Ju-Doh". This name is a corruption of ''judo'', a fighting style.
*Machamp could be seen as a counterpart to {{p|Alakazam}}. They are both the last stage of a three-part evolutionary line, they reach their final stage by [[Trade|trading]], level up at a Medium Slow rate, and they both have a 75% male gender ratio. Also, Machamp excels at the {{stat|Attack}} stat, while Alakazam excels at the {{Stat|Special Attack}} stat. Their evolutionary lines are also next to each other in the National Pokédex. Moreover, a girl in [[Oreburgh City]] will [[List of in-game trades#Diamond Pearl and Platinum|trade]] her Abra for a Machop. Additionally, their base friendship is the same at 70, and all Pokémon in both of their respective evolutionary lines are in the Human-Like Egg Group. Finally, while Machamp has a [[Gigantamax]] form, Alakazam has a [[Mega Evolution]].
** Machamp also can be seen as a counterpart to the {{p|Conkeldurr}} evolutionary line. Both of them are {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon whose Attack is their highest stat. They both have below average speed. They share the same base stat total. They both have same gender ratio, they both have three-evolutionary stages, and they both reach their respective final-evolutionary stage through trading.
** Besides Alakazam and Conkeldurr, Machamp can also be seen as a counterpart to {{p|Gengar}}. All four Pokémon can be obtained through [[trade Evolution]]. Gengar and Machamp are also capable of Gigantamaxing starting in [[Generation VIII]] and belong to two [[Gym Leader]]s in the [[Galar]] [[region]], depending on which game is played; Machamp belongs to [[Bea]] in [[Pokémon Sword and Shield|Pokémon Sword]], while Gengar belongs to [[Allister]] in Pokémon Shield.
* Machamp's Japanese name, ''Kairiky'', is similar to the Japanese name of the move {{m|Strength}}.
** Additionally, in Mandarin and Cantonese Chinese, Machamp shares its name with Strength; {{tt|怪力 ''Guàilì''|Monstrous Strength}} and {{tt|怪力 ''Gwaailihk''|Monstrous Strength}} respectively.

===Origin===
Machamp appears to be based on a {{wp|Bodybuilding|bodybuilder}} or {{wp|Wrestling|wrestler}}. Seeing as it has more than two arms and blue skin, Machamp might also be based on a Hindu god, perhaps {{wp|Shiva}} or {{wp|Vishnu}}. Its muscular design, head crests, and large lips could also be a reference to the ''[[wp:Kinnikuman|Kinnikuman]]'' series.

Gigantamax Machamp, appearance-wise, resembles the general depictions of the giants from the ''{{wp|Ultraman|Ultra}}'' series, especially with its eyes and head ornaments. These particular warriors are protectors of the universe and often could only be gigantic for a limited time (much like Dynamax as a whole).

====Name origin====
Machamp may be a combination of ''macho'' (manly; Spanish and Portuguese for male) and ''champ''.

Kairiky may be derived from 怪力 ''kairiki'' (superhuman strength), which is the name of its {{pkmn|category}} in Japanese.

Each catch subtemplate, with the exception of the chart-setting header, div, and footer subtemplates, work to create the wild Pokémon availability chart for the main series games. There are some basic parameters shared among them, with some difference depending upon the games that are covered.

==Catch/header==
This begins the chart. Two parameters may be entered. The first parameter should be the type of [[Template:locationcolor|terrain the area is]]. For example, a small town like Pallet or Azalea would use "land", while a big city like Goldenrod or Jubilife would use "building". The second parameter determines whether or not to show the morning/day/night headers. For Generation I and Generation III, set this to "no". For all others, set to "yes".

Catch/header/8 acts the same as Catch/header; however, the parameter that is normally used for the morning/day/night headers is instead used to determine whether or not to show the [[Weather]] headers.

Catch/header/9 only uses one parameter, which serves the same purpose as the first parameter in the other Catch/header templates.

==Catch/div==
This divides up a chart. Use to split Pokémon found by walking (in a cave or through tall grass) from Pokémon found by fishing and surfing, and from special event Pokémon, such as legendaries, or Pokémon that can only be caught once, like Rotom. The first parameter should be the same terrain type as in the header, while the second should be whatever should appear as text. Pre-made entries exist for National Dex (enter "National"), fishing and surfing (enter "Fish"), and special Pokémon (enter "Special"). Make every effort to not link in this.

Catch/div/9 works a little differently than the other dividers. It is designed to separate spawn data for each [[biome]] in an area, so the label and color scheme for each biome are predefined. These presets can be called by inputting the first one or two letters of the biome name as the one unnamed parameter. The following table lists all the biomes and their shortcut keywords:

{| class="roundtable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="border: 2px solid #{{violet color dark}}; background: #{{violet color}}; text-align:center"

==Catchentries==
The various catchentry templates begin in the same way, with the Pokémon's [[National Pokédex]] number in the first parameter followed by its name in the second parameter. The third through fifth (third and fourth only for pairs) parameters may be set to "yes" or "no" in order to indicate if a Pokémon is available in that game, with the third as the first game, the fourth as the second, and fifth as the third version.

For all templates that include three games, the sixth parameter indicates where the Pokémon is found, and by what method. The seventh indicates the levels of the Pokémon. The eighth varies among games: in Generation I and Generation III, it is the sole encounter rate. In other generations, it indicates the morning encounter rate in tandem with the ninth and tenth parameters, which indicate the day and night encounter rates.

For all templates that represent a pair of games, excluding Generation IV, the fifth parameter indicates where the Pokémon is found, and by what method. The sixth indicates the levels of the Pokémon. The seventh, eighth, and ninth parameters represent encounter rates, though how many are necessary - and what time of day each rate corresponds to - varies between generations.

For Generation IV's template, the fifth parameter indicates the levels of the Pokémon, and the sixth parameter represents the Pokémon's spawn weight.

Named parameters, which are optional and should fall at the end, include "all", which, in time-based generations, indicate a Pokémon's encounter rate is consistent throughout the day; "tradenum" and "tradename", which indicate which Pokémon must be traded by the player to an NPC for the Pokémon in question; the weather effects in Generation VIII; the terrain types in Generation IV; "form", which indicates the form of the Pokémon; and most importantly, "type1" and "type2", which indicate the type of the Pokémon.

==Catch/footer==
This ends the chart. It has only one parameter, which should be the same terrain type as in the header.

Catch/footer/9 acts the same as Catch/footer, but it contains additional information that only applies to Generation IX games. It should only be used to end Generation IX availability charts.

==Catch/entry1==
{{catch/header|road|no}}
{{catch/entry1|006|Charizard|yes|no|no|Special|50|One|type1=Fire|type2=Flying}}
{{catch/entry1|009|Blastoise|no|yes|no|Special|50|One|type1=Water}}

The seventh parameter indicates what levels the Pokémon is found at. The eighth parameter indicates what rate it can be encountered at in the morning (4:00 AM to 9:59 AM), the ninth the day (10:00 AM to 5:59 PM), and the tenth at night (6:00 PM to 3:59 AM). An eleventh parameter, defaulted to "j", will, if set to "k", change the grass into the Kanto style. Please set this parameter to "k" for all Kanto locations ''except for'' {{rt|26|Kanto}} and {{rt|27|Kanto}}, and for [[Mt. Silver]].

All others will lead to the default message. If "Trade" is input, at the end of the template, please indicate which Pokémon the player must trade using parameters "tradenum" and "tradename". The seventh parameter indicates what levels the Pokémon is found at. The eighth parameter indicates what rate it can be encountered at.

As this iteration of the template is only made for locations that are accessible in FireRed and LeafGreen as well as Emerald, but not in Ruby and Sapphire, this template is only used on [[Navel Rock]], [[Birth Island]] and [[Altering Cave]].

Each catch subtemplate, with the exception of the chart-setting header, div, and footer subtemplates, work to create the wild Pokémon availability chart for the main series games. There are some basic parameters shared among them, with some difference depending upon the games that are covered.

==Catch/header==
This begins the chart. Two parameters may be entered. The first parameter should be the type of [[Template:locationcolor|terrain the area is]]. For example, a small town like Pallet or Azalea would use "land", while a big city like Goldenrod or Jubilife would use "building". The second parameter determines whether or not to show the morning/day/night headers. For Generation I and Generation III, set this to "no". For all others, set to "yes".

Catch/header/8 acts the same as Catch/header; however, the parameter that is normally used for the morning/day/night headers is instead used to determine whether or not to show the [[Weather]] headers.

Catch/header/9 only uses one parameter, which serves the same purpose as the first parameter in the other Catch/header templates.

==Catch/div==
This divides up a chart. Use to split Pokémon found by walking (in a cave or through tall grass) from Pokémon found by fishing and surfing, and from special event Pokémon, such as legendaries, or Pokémon that can only be caught once, like Rotom. The first parameter should be the same terrain type as in the header, while the second should be whatever should appear as text. Pre-made entries exist for National Dex (enter "National"), fishing and surfing (enter "Fish"), and special Pokémon (enter "Special"). Make every effort to not link in this.

Catch/div/9 works a little differently than the other dividers. It is designed to separate spawn data for each [[biome]] in an area, so the label and color scheme for each biome are predefined. These presets can be called by inputting the first one or two letters of the biome name as the one unnamed parameter. The following table lists all the biomes and their shortcut keywords:

{| class="roundtable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="border: 2px solid #{{violet color dark}}; background: #{{violet color}}; text-align:center"

==Catchentries==
The various catchentry templates begin in the same way, with the Pokémon's [[National Pokédex]] number in the first parameter followed by its name in the second parameter. The third through fifth (third and fourth only for pairs) parameters may be set to "yes" or "no" in order to indicate if a Pokémon is available in that game, with the third as the first game, the fourth as the second, and fifth as the third version.

For all templates that include three games, the sixth parameter indicates where the Pokémon is found, and by what method. The seventh indicates the levels of the Pokémon. The eighth varies among games: in Generation I and Generation III, it is the sole encounter rate. In other generations, it indicates the morning encounter rate in tandem with the ninth and tenth parameters, which indicate the day and night encounter rates.

For all templates that represent a pair of games, excluding Generation IV, the fifth parameter indicates where the Pokémon is found, and by what method. The sixth indicates the levels of the Pokémon. The seventh, eighth, and ninth parameters represent encounter rates, though how many are necessary - and what time of day each rate corresponds to - varies between generations.

For Generation IV's template, the fifth parameter indicates the levels of the Pokémon, and the sixth parameter represents the Pokémon's spawn weight.

Named parameters, which are optional and should fall at the end, include "all", which, in time-based generations, indicate a Pokémon's encounter rate is consistent throughout the day; "tradenum" and "tradename", which indicate which Pokémon must be traded by the player to an NPC for the Pokémon in question; the weather effects in Generation VIII; the terrain types in Generation IV; "form", which indicates the form of the Pokémon; and most importantly, "type1" and "type2", which indicate the type of the Pokémon.

==Catch/footer==
This ends the chart. It has only one parameter, which should be the same terrain type as in the header.

Catch/footer/9 acts the same as Catch/footer, but it contains additional information that only applies to Generation IX games. It should only be used to end Generation IX availability charts.

==Catch/entry1==
{{catch/header|road|no}}
{{catch/entry1|006|Charizard|yes|no|no|Special|50|One|type1=Fire|type2=Flying}}

The sixth parameter's special entries include "Grass", "Surf", "Cave", "Fish Old", "Fish Good", "Fish Super", "Building", "Fake", "Gift", "Prize", "Starter", "Dome", "Helix", "Amber", "Trade" and "Special". All others will lead to the default message. If "Trade" is input, at the end of the template, please indicate which Pokémon the player must trade using parameters "tradenum" and "tradename". The seventh parameter indicates what levels the Pokémon is found at. The eighth parameter indicates what rate it can be encountered at.

'''Time''' is a mechanic in the [[Pokémon games]]. It was introduced in [[Generation II]] and has been a major component of almost all games released afterward. Time affects both the [[Evolution]] of several {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and whether certain Pokémon can be found in the [[wild Pokémon|wild]]. Some events may take place at a specific time of day, or on a particular [[days of the week|day of the week]]. The {{g|Legends}} games and {{g|Scarlet and Violet}} use their own in-game time system and don't depend on the player or console's real time.

{{Berries}} are governed by the time function, maturing after a certain amount of time has passed. Much like [[weather]], the games' time function has been revised and expanded in each subsequent generation after its introduction.

==In the core series games==
===Generation II===
[[File:MorningGS.png|thumb|right|250px|{{rt|29|Johto}} in the morning]]
In [[Generation II]], the changing time of day is one of the games' distinctive features. Wild encounters vary based on the time of day; several Pokémon were designed with this in mind, such as {{p|Hoothoot}} and {{p|Noctowl}}.

At the [[new game|beginning]] of all three games, the player is required to set the clock, even before selecting a name. The default time is 10:00 AM (10:00). When the player speaks to their {{jo|Mom}} at the start of the game, the player must specify whether it is currently {{wp|daylight saving time}} or not; they can adjust the clock for entering or exiting daylight savings time.

The clock can be reset through a code in all three games, although it is more difficult to do so in {{game|Crystal}}. For the [[Virtual Console]] versions, adjusting the time on the [[Nintendo 3DS]] clock does not affect the in-game time.

=====Morning=====
Morning, referred to as <sc>Morn</sc> in-game, is the time from 4:00 AM to 9:59 AM (04:00–09:59). Many [[Pokémon Trainer]]s are still asleep and there are many {{type|Bug}} Pokémon in the wild. However, the wild Pokémon that appear in the Morning are mostly the same as Day, with only slight differences. During the Morning, the rising sun tints the entire landscape with a yellowish hue.
[[File:DayGS.png|thumb|right|200px|Daytime near the water.]]

=====Day=====
Day is the time from 10:00 AM to 5:59 PM (10:00–17:59). The landscape is not tinted at all during this time, making it seem closer to the [[Generation I]] games (which do not have a time system). Day is the busiest time, as most people are up and about at this time and a wide variety of Pokémon appear.

=====Night=====
Night, referred to as <sc>Nite</sc> in-game, is the time from 6:00 PM to 3:59 AM (18:00–03:59). Wild Pokémon battles taking place at night use a slightly different music track. The world is colored a bluish-purple, and buildings have their lights on. If interacted with, the [[Pokémon Center lady]] will note that the player is still active despite the time, before healing the party.

[[File:NightGS.png|thumb|200px|right|Nighttime. Note the building lights illuminating brightly.]]

====Days of the week====
{{main|Days of the week}}
When the [[Pokégear]] is first received, the player's mother will ask them to set the day of the week as well. This affects several things, such as the [[National Park]]'s [[Bug-Catching Contest]] and which of the [[Week Siblings]] appears, though not much else.

====Resetting the clock====
In the Western and Korean versions, a secret function for resetting the game's clock that requires a password may be accessed from the title screen. The password is generated from the player's [[Original Trainer|name]], [[Trainer ID number]], and current amount of [[Pokémon Dollar|money]] ([https://bl4cksh4rk.github.io/Pokemon-GSC-Clock-Password-Generator/ Blackshark's GSC Clock Password Generator]). The game will then reboot and the [[main menu]] will return the "TIME NOT SET" [[error message]]. Proceeding will then load a screen in which the player can adjust the clock's data, including the [[Days of the week|weekday]]. Due to being based on the Japanese version, the password only takes into account the first five characters of the player's name.

While the function for manually resetting the clock is not available in the Japanese versions, the main menu error and the actual clock adjustment screen exist in all versions as they are used for when the clock data is invalid or corrupted.

=====Western Gold and Silver=====
Hold '''↓''', '''SELECT''', and '''B'''.

=====Western Crystal and Korean Gold and Silver=====
# Hold '''↓''', '''SELECT''', and '''B'''
# Release '''↓''' and '''B''', while still holding '''SELECT'''
# Hold '''←''' and '''↑''', while still holding '''SELECT'''
# Release '''SELECT'''

===Generation III===
Unlike Generation II, [[Generation III]] had no separate time periods, or even an ability to check the time in-game unless the player traveled back to [[Littleroot Town]], where they had set an analog clock at the beginning of the game. The overworld lighting does not change during different times of the day. Also, unlike Generation II, the time-based events were very few and extremely far between, with the clock mostly running to keep track of the growth of planted [[Berry|Berries]] ([[Berry glitch|although this was not completely foolproof]]). Additionally, there was no way to change the clock in this generation, not even for daylight saving time.

There were, however, some time-based functions in the games. For example, [[Shoal Cave]]'s water level would change every six hours, at 3:00 and 9:00 AM and PM (03:00, 09:00, 15:00, 21:00). Just the same, the [[time-based Evolution]]s are available.

Although a small part of the game, some events occur on a daily basis. Some NPCs give the player one Berry every day. [[Lilycove Department Store]] gives out Pokémon Loto Tickets for the [[Loto-ID|Pokémon Lottery Corner]], with the winning number changing daily. An old man who lives in [[Pacifidlog Town]] looks out for {{gdis|Mirage Island|III}}, and will, every day, generate a random number between 0 and 65535 and if this number matches the personality value of any of the Pokémon in the party, Mirage Island will appear in the game.

Time was only used in the Hoenn-based games. Time-based Evolutions cannot trigger in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. In {{g|Colosseum}}, the player receives {{p|Espeon}} and {{p|Umbreon}}, the only two Pokémon at the time that were result of time-based Evolution, at the beginning of the game. In {{Pokémon XD}}, the player's {{p|Eevee}} can evolve into Espeon or Umbreon with the [[Sun Shard]] or the [[Moon Shard]] in the Bag, respectively.

===Generation IV===
[[File:Gen IV Time change.png|frame|The overworld as it cycles through the day]]
In [[Generation IV]], the time function returned fully with many features from Generation II, including changes in the overworld lighting and in the availability of wild Pokémon at different times of day, being {{pkmn2|Nocturnal}}, {{pkmn2|Matutinal}}, or {{pkmn2|Diurnal}}. However, this time it uses the [[Nintendo DS]]'s system clock. The three time periods from Generation II return, with smoother transitions between them.

A calendar and day of the week system are also present. The game keeps track of the date of capture of every Pokémon. Some in-game events are influenced by the day of the week; for example, {{p|Drifloon}} only appear in the [[Valley Windworks]] on Fridays, and battles with {{ga|Barry}} in the [[Battle Zone]] can only be initiated on weekends.

The [[Pokédex]] also has a new function that displays where Pokémon are found in each time period. When it is first opened, the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] will also default to the current time of day.

Additionally, in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} only, the generic battle transitions change during nighttime (except for wild Pokémon in water). Cave battles are always treated as if it was nighttime, but places with cavelike encounters such as [[Sprout Tower]] or [[Ilex Forest]] properly account for the time.

=====Morning=====
Morning tints everything a pale blue color, changing from dark blue of night into bright blue of daytime. Morning lasts from 4:00 AM to 9:59 AM (04:00–9:59).

=====Day=====
Everything takes on its natural color during the day. Day lasts from 10:00 AM to 7:59 PM (10:00–19:59), with twilight lasting from around 5:00 PM (17:00) until night sets in. Twilight has its own set of eyecatches.

=====Night=====
Much like its Generation II counterpart, the world is dark, but pockmarked by the bright lights of buildings. Night lasts from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59), with lights in buildings turning off at 12:00 AM (00:00). A majority of areas in [[Sinnoh]] have slightly different music during the night, including [[Pokémon Center]]s, though this is not true in [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]].

===Generation V===
[[File:Gen V time change {{#switch: {{#time: F}}|January|May|September=spring|February|June|October=summer|March|July|November=autumn|winter}}.png|frame|The overworld as it cycles through the day during in-game {{#switch: {{#time: F}}|January|May|September=spring|February|June|October=summer|March|July|November=autumn|winter}}.]]
In {{game|Black and White|s}}, the concept of {{season}}s was introduced. These are akin to the seasons in the real world, only to allow for less restrictive gameplay, the seasons change with every month.

Time of day now varies depending on the current season. As in HeartGold and SoulSilver, day is divided in four different parts: morning, when floodlights in the cities switch off and the sun starts to rise; daytime, when everything is lightened; evening, when the floodlights switch on in the cities and everything starts to be lit with an orange hue; and then nighttime, which is characterized by a darker landscape, both in the overworld map and in battle.

In favor of seasons, Pokémon are no longer found at different times of day, meaning Pokémon that can be found in the current season can be found anytime during the season.

===Generation VI===
Time continued to be based on the system clock in Generation VI, now using the 3DS's clock to track time. Seasons from Generation V did not carry over, however. Therefore, the intervals for when morning, day, evening, and night occur are now constant. Unlike in previous generations, where the time period transitions lasted a few seconds, they may last up to 15 minutes, allowing less abrupt changes in the overworld lighting. If the 3DS clock is changed, time-based events will not occur for 24 hours and any Berries will reset.

In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the game always starts at daytime, the 3DS's clock being taken into account only after the player interacts with the analog clock in their room.

===Generation VII===
====Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon====
In {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun}} and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun}}, the clock functions conventionally, matching the [[Nintendo 3DS]]'s clock; however, in {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Moon}} and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Moon}}, the game runs its time offset by 12 hours from the 3DS's clock. In Pokémon Moon and Ultra Moon, this difference mainly affects the day-night cycle. Events that refresh daily still refresh when the 3DS's clock hits midnight (or noon in-game in Moon and Ultra Moon) and events that rely on the day of the week correlate to the day according to the 3DS's clock.

Specific scenes in the game, such as in the beginning of the game, will be set at specific times, with the clock effectively frozen until that part of the story is completed. Regardless of the games, the player is eventually able to travel to a world that has the opposite time by using the [[Ultra Wormhole]] at the [[Altar of the Sunne]]/[[Altar of the Moone|Moone]].

Different Pokémon can once again be found depending on the time of day. In the [[Rotom Pokédex]], these species are denoted with a different icon when viewed in the Habitat menu. Certain areas in [[Alola]] have slightly different background music depending on the time of day, such as [[Hau'oli City]].

=====Times of day=====
Note that these times refer to the time on the 3DS's clock. That is, within Pokémon Moon and Ultra Moon, "day" still starts at 6 AM (06:00) as far as the game world is concerned. This may be seen at any place that acknowledges the time, such as the [[Pokémon Center Café]].

Despite [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] having a few time-based features, they are set in perpetual daytime, much like the original {{game|Yellow}}.

====Pokémon Sword and Shield====
In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, time is set to specific times of day during the main story as a narrative device. This affects all areas of [[Galar]] outside of the [[Wild Area]], and even influences Evolution. However, daily events (such as the [[Battle Café]] matches) still reset at midnight according to the system time. After the player becomes {{pkmn|Champion}}, time is no longer pre-set outside the Wild Area, and functions solely based on the system time, even during post-game story scenes like the arc involving [[Sordward]] and [[Shielbert]].

====Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl====
In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, the time function remains the same as [[Generation IV]]'s, including changes in the overworld lighting and in the availability of wild Pokémon at different times of day, being {{pkmn2|Nocturnal}}, {{pkmn2|Matutinal}}, or {{pkmn2|Diurnal}}. However, this time it uses the [[Nintendo Switch]]'s system clock.

A calendar and day of the week system are also present. The game keeps track of the date of capture of every Pokémon. Some in-game events are influenced by the day of the week; for example, {{p|Drifloon}} only appear in the [[Valley Windworks]] on Fridays, and battles with {{ga|Barry}} in the [[Battle Zone]] can only be initiated on weekends.

======Morning======
Everything is bright and sunny, with the lighting facing from the west. Morning times are from 4:00 AM to 9:59 AM (04:00–9:59).

======Day======
Everything takes on its natural color during the day. Day lasts from 10:00 AM to 7:59 PM (10:00–19:59), with twilight lasting from around 5:00 PM (17:00) until night sets in. Twilight has its own set of eyecatches.

======Night======
Much like its Generation IV counterpart, the world is dark, but pockmarked by the bright lights of buildings. Night lasts from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59), with lights in buildings turning off at 12:00 AM (00:00). A majority of areas in [[Sinnoh]] have slightly different music during the night, including [[Pokémon Center]]s.

====Pokémon Legends: Arceus====
{{g|Legends: Arceus}} has its own time system<ref>[https://gist.github.com/Lusamine/89ca91f672aa782f073157dbed495af2 LA Day & Night Cycle.md by Lusamine]</ref>, independent from the system clock. A minute in real life corresponds to an hour in-game. The player can instantly change the current time of day, and even skip to the next day, by resting at {{DL|Jubilife Village|your quarters|their quarters}} or the bed present at each [[Base camp]].

=====Times of day=====
{| class="roundtable c" style="margin: auto; background: #{{Hisui color}}; border: 3px solid #{{Hisui color dark}};"
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Morning
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Day

| 9:00 PM–4:59 AM<br>(21:00–04:59)<br>8 real minutes
|}

Note that Morning and Day are only distinct internally, (as there are no Pokémon that spawn exclusively in "Morning but not Day", nor in "Day but not Morning"), and any [[Research task (Legends: Arceus)|Research Task]]s that require "daylight" can be completed in both Morning and Day. (Between 5:00 AM and 6:59 PM)

{{main|Time-based_Evolution#Teddiursa_line|Time-based Evolution → Teddiursa line}}
Additionally, there are 8 phases of the moon, which naturally advances to the next phase every two days at 5:00 AM, and can also be advanced manually by resting twice to any time that would pass 5:00 AM. {{p|Ursaring}} can only evolve into {{p|Ursaluna}} when using a [[Peat Block]] during a Full Moon.

=====Changing time=====
The time can be changed by going to a [[Base camp]] or the player's bed in [[Jubilife Village]] and choosing to rest until a certain time. Selecting "Just a little while" will heal the player's [[party]] members, but not advance the current time. Selecting the remaining options will advance the day/night cycle to the following times:

{| class="roundtable c" style="margin: auto; background: #{{Hisui color}}; border: 3px solid #{{Hisui color dark}};"
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until morning
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until midday
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until evening
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until nightfall
|-
| 7:00 AM<br>(07:00)
| 12:00 AM<br>(12:00)
| 7:00 PM<br>(19:00)
| 9:00 PM<br>(21:00)
|}

Resting in this manner will however reset the current state in the area and despawn any time-specific Pokémon encounters, as well as resetting timings for [[space-time distortion]]s and other similar timed events.

===Generation IX===
====Pokémon Scarlet and Violet====
{{g|Scarlet and Violet}} have their own time system, which with 1 real-life day equal to 20 in-game days. This time can be influenced by the player by altering the system clock prior to opening the game,<ref>[https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657628501917442052 Scarlet and Violet Day/Night Cycle Mechanics by Atrius97, via Twitter]</ref> with the time value being determined when the game is first opened.<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657611236694196225</ref> However, the day/night cycle does not begin until the player loads into the overworld, so any changes to the system clock while the game is loading or at the in-game start menu have no effect, the game will load the time from when the game was initially opened. The day/night cycle lasts 72 real minutes in total, repeating 20 times over the course of 24 hours. Different Pokémon can spawn depending on the time of the day; unlike previous games, however, the brief period of evening has its own separate spawns defined as well.

Opening the map by pressing Y will show an icon in the top-center of the map<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657609709019623426</ref> indicating the time of day. This icon will dynamically update to show the current time period, however Morning does not have its own unique icon, instead sharing an icon with Day.<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657628499975479296</ref> While the player is in [[Area Zero]], this is the only way to tell the time of day without having to come out.

There are two exceptions to the day/night cycle, the first being that during the tutorial, the time will be locked to Day until visiting [[Naranja Academy]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]{{sup/9|V}} for the first time and obtaining {{p|Koraidon}}{{sup/9|S}}/{{p|Miraidon}}{{sup/9|V}}.

[[Area Zero]] is also unaffected by the day/night cycle (with {{p|Flutter Mane}} being the only exception due to a quirk<ref>[https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1647304950358106114 Flutter Mane Spawning Mechanics Quirk]</ref>), with time-exclusive species and forms spawning regardless of the current time in the rest of Paldea.

The current time is shared between all players in the same instance while playing in co-op via [[Union Circle]], determined by the player hosting the group.

Due to their physical locations being relatively distant from Paldea, both [[Kitakami]] and the [[Terarium]] experience different {{wp|timezone}}s, with Kitakami being 18 (real life) minutes ahead of Paldea, and the Terarium being 18 (real life) minutes behind Paldea. These time differences are roughly the same as those of their [[Pokémon world in relation to the real world|real world inspirations]].

If defeated, static encounters such as the [[treasures of ruin]], and fixed [[symbol encounter]]s such as wild Tera Pokémon will reappear if the player reboots their game after one hour has passed in the [[Nintendo Switch|Switch]]'s internal clock following their defeat. This is independent from Scarlet and Violet's in-game time system.

====Pokémon Legends: Z-A====
:''See also: [[Battle_zone_(Lumiose_City)|Battle Zone]]''
[[File:Legends Z-A Day-Night Key Art.png|thumb|right|250px|[[Lumiose City]] during the day and night in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}]]
The time of day plays a particular function in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}'s appearance of [[Lumiose City]]. The day lasts for 16 real time minutes, while the night lasts 8 minutes.

During the night, areas of the city are sectioned off similarly to [[Wild_zone|Wild zones]] and become [[Battle_zone_(Lumiose_City)|"Battle zones"]], where [[Pokémon Trainer]]s become the main focus instead. The {{player}} is able to partake in an event known as the [[Z-A Royale]] when battle zones are up.

=====Changing time=====

The time can be changed by sitting on a bench and choosing to "kill some time" until nightfall or morning.

When time changes between night and day, wild Pokémon spawns are rerolled, this excludes previously spawned [[Shiny_Pokémon|Shiny Pokémon]] if the time was changed by sitting on a bench.
If a Shiny Pokémon happens to be a night or day only spawn, it will spawn once more when the player changes back to night or day, respectively.

The natural day and night cycle always rerolls all Pokémon regardless of shininess.

===Time-specific events===
:''This section relates only to events that occur at specific times but not necessarily on a particular day. For events that occur only on specific days of the week (but not at a particular time), see [[days of the week]].''

====Time-based Evolutions====
{{main|Time-based Evolution}}
Several {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} [[Evolution|evolve]] during a certain time of day.

====Generation II====
* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}} in [[Mt. Moon Square]] will trigger between [[Days of the week|Monday]] night at 8:00 PM and [[Days of the week#Tuesday|Tuesday]] morning at 4:00 AM (20:00–4:00).
* {{Daisy}} will massage the player's Pokémon between 3:00 and 4:00 PM (15:00–16:00).
* {{tc|Police Officer|Officers}} will only challenge the player at night from 6:00 PM to 3:59 AM (18:00–03:59).
* The wild battle theme played in [[Johto]] and some locations in [[Kanto]] is slightly different at night from 6:00 PM to 3:59 AM (18:00–03:59).

======Effects of changing the clock======
If the clock is [[#Resetting the clock|reset]], every time-based event moves forward and can be repeated right away. Time-based events with a specific window need the clock to be set within that frame. In these games, the time-based events are:

* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}}.
* The [[Haircut brothers]].
* The {{p|Lapras}} {{DL|Union Cave|Generations II and IV|special encounter}}.
* The {{DL|Radio|Lucky Number Show}}.
* Picking [[Apricorn]]s and {{Berries}} from trees.
* Receiving Apricorn Balls from [[Kurt]].
* The [[S.S. Aqua]] voyage.
* The rematch against {{ga|Silver}} at [[Indigo Plateau]].
* The [[Trainer House]] battle.

====Generation III====
=====Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald=====
* The tides in [[Shoal Cave]] depend on the time of day. It is high tide from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM (09:00–15:00) and 9:00 PM to 3:00 AM (21:00–03:00), and low tide from 3:00 PM to 9:00 PM (15:00–21:00) and 3:00 AM to 9:00 AM (03:00–09:00).
There is no side-effect to changing the clock in these games.

====Generation IV====
=====Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum=====
{{incomplete|section|Many effects of changing the clock are missing}}
* {{tc|Jogger}}s will only challenge the player in the morning from 4:00 to 9:59 AM (04:00–09:59).
* {{tc|Police Officer|Policemen}} will only challenge the player at night from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59).
* The player can catch {{p|Rotom}} once from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59) in the [[Old Chateau]].
* The [[Pal Park]] transfer can occur only once every 24 hours.
* The music tracks for [[Twinleaf Town]], [[Sandgem Town]], [[Jubilife City]], [[Oreburgh City]], [[Floaroma Town]], [[Eterna City]]/[[Celestic Town]], [[Hearthome City]], [[Solaceon Town]]/[[Pastoria City]], [[Veilstone City]], [[Snowpoint City]], [[Sunyshore City]], the [[Pokémon League (Sinnoh)|Pokémon League]], the [[Fight Area]], [[Valor Lakefront]], the [[Pokémon Center]]s, and Routes 201, 203, 205, 206, 216, 225, and 228 will change depending on if it's day or night.

======Effects of changing the clock======
* [[Pal Park]]: the player must wait 24 hours from when the game is opened after changing the clock to be able to {{DL|Pal Park|Migration|migrate}}. If the clock was changed, the game needs to sync with the new time so that the penalization period starts running. This can be accomplished by booting the game and saving. Otherwise, the penalization period cannot begin nor end. If the game was booted in a different system, the penalization period can be prevented simply by not saving and, if available, returning the game to the system it's synchronized with.

=====Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver=====
* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}} in [[Mt. Moon Square]] will trigger between [[days of the week|Monday]] [[Time|night]] at 8:00 PM and [[days of the week#Tuesday|Tuesday]] [[Time|morning]] at 4:00 AM (20:00–4:00).
* {{Daisy}} will massage the player's Pokémon between 3:00 PM and 4:00 PM (15:00–16:00).
* {{tc|Police Officer|Policemen}} will only challenge the player at night from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59).

======Effects of changing the clock======
If the game detects a different clock, either by changing the date or time of the system or by booting the game in a different system and saving, time-based events will be affected differently.

The following time-based events can be done by directly changing the clock to the time window in which they're active:

* The [[Bug-Catching Contest]].
* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}}.
* Commemorative {{DL|Photography|Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver|pictures}}.
* Items available in the {{DL|Pokéathlon Dome|Athlete Shop}} at the Pokéathlon Dome.
* The {{p|Lapras}} {{DL|Union Cave|Generations II and IV|special encounter}} in Union Cave.
* Pokégear [[radio|radio shows]].
* Obtaining the {{DL|Fighting Dojo/Generation IV|Phone listing|Gym Leaders' phone numbers}}.
* {{DL|Fighting Dojo/Generation IV|Rematch schedule|Rematch calls}} with the Gym Leaders.
* The rematch against {{ga|Silver}} at [[Indigo Plateau]].
* The [[S.S. Aqua]] voyage (including receiving an item from the captain).
* The {{DL|Goldenrod Tunnel|shops}} in the Goldenrod Tunnel.
* The [[Week Siblings]] appearing.

The following daily events can be done by changing the clock to 23:59 and letting the clock roll over to the next day in-game:

* {{DL|Radio|Buena's Password}} in Goldenrod City. The password will not be available right after the clock rolls over. Saving the game on the new day, then changing the clock for a second time to when (or waiting until) her show is on air (2:00, 5:00, 8:00, 11:00, 14:00, 17:00, 20:00, and 23:00) is necessary.
* {{Daisy}}'s massage in [[Pallet Town]]. The massage will not be available right after the clock rolls over. Saving the game after midnight, then changing the clock for a second time to when (or waiting until) the massage can be requested (15:00–16:00) is necessary.
* [[Mass outbreak]]s.
* Hearing a new [[Trend|trendy phrase]] from the old man on {{rt|16|Kanto}}.
* Picking [[Apricorn]]s from trees.
* The [[Loto-ID|Pokémon Lottery Corner]] in Goldenrod City.
* Receiving Apricorn Balls from [[Kurt]].
* Receiving [[Sticker|Seal]]s in Olivine City.
* The [[Trainer House]] battle in Viridian City.
* Receiving a [[Ribbon]] from one of the [[Week Siblings]].

The following time-based events are impacted negatively if the game detects any time change:

* {{DL|Berry|Generation IV|Berry growth}}: instead of calculating how long it has been since the game was last saved and matching the Berry's timer to the system's clock, the Berry's timer resumes right from when the game was last saved.
* {{safari|Johto}} {{DL|Johto Safari Zone|area upgrades}}: the invisible day counter will freeze for 24 hours, period after which it will resume counting days from where it left off when the game was last saved. Just like with [[Pal Park]] in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, if the clock was changed, the game needs to sync with the new time so that the penalization period starts running. This can be accomplished by booting the game and saving. Otherwise, the penalization period cannot begin nor end. If the game was booted in a different system, the penalization period can be prevented simply by not saving and, if available, returning the game to the system it's synchronized with.

====Generation V====

==In the spin-off games==
===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series===
In the {{g|Mystery Dungeon series}} a day has passed every time the player comes back from an adventure or plays [[Sentry Duty]]. During the story, one day can incorporate clearing several dungeons in a row with save points in between.

Clearing [[Blizzard Island]] gives the player the choice to go through [[Crevice Cave]] or not, if the player chooses not to a day has passed. When going to [[Hidden Land]], a day never passes unless the player leaves back to [[Treasure Town]] or completes [[Temporal Tower]].

===Pokémon Conquest===
In {{g|Conquest}}, The shortest unit of time measured in Pokémon Conquest is a month (not real time). Every story starts on January, Year 1. In two stories (''The Rebel'' and ''Tragic Determination''), the goal is to defeat [[Nobunaga]] before January, Year 4 (before 3 years had passed).

Opposing armies will only attack at the very start of the month, except for one time in ''The Legend of Ransei'' where Shingen or Kenshin attack after they decline a battle with the {{player}}.

===Pokémon GO===
In {{g|GO}}, day and night changes depend on sunset and sunrise in the player's location. The difference between day and night is the appearance, the music, and the Evolution of some Pokémon. Additionally, {{OBP|Raid Battle|GO}}s do not spawn during a specific range of hours at night. Sunny [[weather]] during the day becomes Clear weather during the night; the effects of the two, however, are identical.

If a [[Mystery Box]] is acquired and opened, three days must pass before it can be opened again.

For the time-based Evolutions, see [[Time-based Evolution#Pokémon GO|Time-based Evolution → Pokémon GO]].

===Pokémon Sleep===
In {{g|Sleep}}, the day is divided into three parts for three [[Cooking (Sleep)|meals]]: morning (4:00 AM to 11:59 AM) for breakfast, day (12:00 PM to 5:59 PM) for lunch, and night (6:00 PM to 3:59 AM) for dinner. These times are all set based on the player's current time zone. The daily events (such as sleeping time, shop events, etc) last from 4:00 AM to 3:59 AM the next day. The week starts on Monday.

Prior to version 1.5.0 (released April 18, 2024), night lasted till 5:59 AM instead of 3:59 AM and morning began from 6:00 AM instead of 4:00 AM.

===Pokémon Party mini===
{{missing image|section|Add clock image}}
In [[Pokémon Party mini]], the Celebi's Clock is a clock with date, alarm and stopwatch functions.

===Eevee × Tamagotchi===
{{missing image|section|Add clock image}}
In [[Eevee × Tamagotchi]], there is a digital clock function. The player is required to set up the time before starting the game.

Each catch subtemplate, with the exception of the chart-setting header, div, and footer subtemplates, work to create the wild Pokémon availability chart for the main series games. There are some basic parameters shared among them, with some difference depending upon the games that are covered.

==Catch/header==
This begins the chart. Two parameters may be entered. The first parameter should be the type of [[Template:locationcolor|terrain the area is]]. For example, a small town like Pallet or Azalea would use "land", while a big city like Goldenrod or Jubilife would use "building". The second parameter determines whether or not to show the morning/day/night headers. For Generation I and Generation III, set this to "no". For all others, set to "yes".

Catch/header/8 acts the same as Catch/header; however, the parameter that is normally used for the morning/day/night headers is instead used to determine whether or not to show the [[Weather]] headers.

Catch/header/9 only uses one parameter, which serves the same purpose as the first parameter in the other Catch/header templates.

==Catch/div==
This divides up a chart. Use to split Pokémon found by walking (in a cave or through tall grass) from Pokémon found by fishing and surfing, and from special event Pokémon, such as legendaries, or Pokémon that can only be caught once, like Rotom. The first parameter should be the same terrain type as in the header, while the second should be whatever should appear as text. Pre-made entries exist for National Dex (enter "National"), fishing and surfing (enter "Fish"), and special Pokémon (enter "Special"). Make every effort to not link in this.

Catch/div/9 works a little differently than the other dividers. It is designed to separate spawn data for each [[biome]] in an area, so the label and color scheme for each biome are predefined. These presets can be called by inputting the first one or two letters of the biome name as the one unnamed parameter. The following table lists all the biomes and their shortcut keywords:

{| class="roundtable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="border: 2px solid #{{violet color dark}}; background: #{{violet color}}; text-align:center"

==Catchentries==
The various catchentry templates begin in the same way, with the Pokémon's [[National Pokédex]] number in the first parameter followed by its name in the second parameter. The third through fifth (third and fourth only for pairs) parameters may be set to "yes" or "no" in order to indicate if a Pokémon is available in that game, with the third as the first game, the fourth as the second, and fifth as the third version.

For all templates that include three games, the sixth parameter indicates where the Pokémon is found, and by what method. The seventh indicates the levels of the Pokémon. The eighth varies among games: in Generation I and Generation III, it is the sole encounter rate. In other generations, it indicates the morning encounter rate in tandem with the ninth and tenth parameters, which indicate the day and night encounter rates.

For all templates that represent a pair of games, excluding Generation IV, the fifth parameter indicates where the Pokémon is found, and by what method. The sixth indicates the levels of the Pokémon. The seventh, eighth, and ninth parameters represent encounter rates, though how many are necessary - and what time of day each rate corresponds to - varies between generations.

For Generation IV's template, the fifth parameter indicates the levels of the Pokémon, and the sixth parameter represents the Pokémon's spawn weight.

Named parameters, which are optional and should fall at the end, include "all", which, in time-based generations, indicate a Pokémon's encounter rate is consistent throughout the day; "tradenum" and "tradename", which indicate which Pokémon must be traded by the player to an NPC for the Pokémon in question; the weather effects in Generation VIII; the terrain types in Generation IV; "form", which indicates the form of the Pokémon; and most importantly, "type1" and "type2", which indicate the type of the Pokémon.

Each catch subtemplate, with the exception of the chart-setting header, div, and footer subtemplates, work to create the wild Pokémon availability chart for the main series games. There are some basic parameters shared among them, with some difference depending upon the games that are covered.

==Catch/header==
This begins the chart. Two parameters may be entered. The first parameter should be the type of [[Template:locationcolor|terrain the area is]]. For example, a small town like Pallet or Azalea would use "land", while a big city like Goldenrod or Jubilife would use "building". The second parameter determines whether or not to show the morning/day/night headers. For Generation I and Generation III, set this to "no". For all others, set to "yes".

Catch/header/8 acts the same as Catch/header; however, the parameter that is normally used for the morning/day/night headers is instead used to determine whether or not to show the [[Weather]] headers.

Catch/header/9 only uses one parameter, which serves the same purpose as the first parameter in the other Catch/header templates.

==Catch/div==
This divides up a chart. Use to split Pokémon found by walking (in a cave or through tall grass) from Pokémon found by fishing and surfing, and from special event Pokémon, such as legendaries, or Pokémon that can only be caught once, like Rotom. The first parameter should be the same terrain type as in the header, while the second should be whatever should appear as text. Pre-made entries exist for National Dex (enter "National"), fishing and surfing (enter "Fish"), and special Pokémon (enter "Special"). Make every effort to not link in this.

Catch/div/9 works a little differently than the other dividers. It is designed to separate spawn data for each [[biome]] in an area, so the label and color scheme for each biome are predefined. These presets can be called by inputting the first one or two letters of the biome name as the one unnamed parameter. The following table lists all the biomes and their shortcut keywords:

{| class="roundtable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" style="border: 2px solid #{{violet color dark}}; background: #{{violet color}}; text-align:center"

==Catchentries==
The various catchentry templates begin in the same way, with the Pokémon's [[National Pokédex]] number in the first parameter followed by its name in the second parameter. The third through fifth (third and fourth only for pairs) parameters may be set to "yes" or "no" in order to indicate if a Pokémon is available in that game, with the third as the first game, the fourth as the second, and fifth as the third version.

For all templates that include three games, the sixth parameter indicates where the Pokémon is found, and by what method. The seventh indicates the levels of the Pokémon. The eighth varies among games: in Generation I and Generation III, it is the sole encounter rate. In other generations, it indicates the morning encounter rate in tandem with the ninth and tenth parameters, which indicate the day and night encounter rates.

For all templates that represent a pair of games, excluding Generation IV, the fifth parameter indicates where the Pokémon is found, and by what method. The sixth indicates the levels of the Pokémon. The seventh, eighth, and ninth parameters represent encounter rates, though how many are necessary - and what time of day each rate corresponds to - varies between generations.

For Generation IV's template, the fifth parameter indicates the levels of the Pokémon, and the sixth parameter represents the Pokémon's spawn weight.

Named parameters, which are optional and should fall at the end, include "all", which, in time-based generations, indicate a Pokémon's encounter rate is consistent throughout the day; "tradenum" and "tradename", which indicate which Pokémon must be traded by the player to an NPC for the Pokémon in question; the weather effects in Generation VIII; the terrain types in Generation IV; "form", which indicates the form of the Pokémon; and most importantly, "type1" and "type2", which indicate the type of the Pokémon.

==Catch/footer==
This ends the chart. It has only one parameter, which should be the same terrain type as in the header.

Catch/footer/9 acts the same as Catch/footer, but it contains additional information that only applies to Generation IX games. It should only be used to end Generation IX availability charts.

This catchentry is used for locations that wild Pokémon can spawn in {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}. The types of terrain that the Pokémon can spawn in are specified by the parameters "land", "watersurface", "underwater", "overland", and "sky", which correspond to the Land, UpWater, UnderWater, Air1, and Air2 variables, respectively. If the Pokémon can spawn in that type of terrain, the corresponding parameter should be set to "yes". The types of terrain that the Pokémon cannot spawn in should be left alone. The times of day that the Pokémon can spawn are specified by the parameters "all", "morning", "day", "evening", and "night". If the Pokémon can spawn at any time of day, then "all" should be set to "yes", and the other parameters should be left alone. If the Pokémon can only spawn at certain times of day, then the times of day at which the Pokémon cannot spawn should be set to "0". All other times of day will display the Pokémon's standard spawn weight. If the Pokémon can spawn as the leader of a group, the parameter "group" should be set to the chance of this happening as a percent (without the % sign). If the species of the group is different than the species of the leader, the parameters "groupnum" and "groupmon" should be set to the Pokédex number and name, respectively, of the group's species. Otherwise, the group Pokémon displayed will be the same species as the leader. If the group's species has a specific form, that form must be specified using the "groupform" parameter, even if the group Pokémon is the same species and form as the leader

This catchentry should be used for locations with wild Pokémon that are found only in [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]]. The fourth parameter indicates the Pokémon spawns as an [[alpha Pokémon|alpha]], this alpha should have its own row under its non-alpha counterpart, if applicable. The sixth parameter indicates if it can be found during both "day" and "night", the seventh and eighth parameters if it can be found only during the day, or the night, respectively. Only the needed entries should be filled in, each divided by a pipe character (|). If the ninth parameter is filled in, that indicates that the Pokémon can appear in all weather conditions. Otherwise, specify which weather conditions the Pokémon appears in using the parameters "clear", "sun", "cloudy", "rain", and "fog" as the tenth and onward parameters.

'''Time''' is a mechanic in the [[Pokémon games]]. It was introduced in [[Generation II]] and has been a major component of almost all games released afterward. Time affects both the [[Evolution]] of several {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and whether certain Pokémon can be found in the [[wild Pokémon|wild]]. Some events may take place at a specific time of day, or on a particular [[days of the week|day of the week]]. {{g|Legends: Arceus}} and {{g|Scarlet and Violet}} use their own in-game time system and don't depend on the player or console's real time.

{{Berries}} are governed by the time function, maturing after a certain amount of time has passed. Much like [[weather]], the games' time function has been revised and expanded in each subsequent generation after its introduction.

==In the core series games==
===Generation II===
[[File:MorningGS.png|thumb|right|250px|{{rt|29|Johto}} in the morning]]
In [[Generation II]], the changing time of day is one of the games' distinctive features. Wild encounters vary based on the time of day; several Pokémon were designed with this in mind, such as {{p|Hoothoot}} and {{p|Noctowl}}.

At the [[new game|beginning]] of all three games, the player is required to set the clock, even before selecting a name. The default time is 10:00 AM (10:00). When the player speaks to their {{jo|Mom}} at the start of the game, the player must specify whether it is currently {{wp|daylight saving time}} or not; they can adjust the clock for entering or exiting daylight savings time.

The clock can be reset through a code in all three games, although it is more difficult to do so in {{game|Crystal}}. For the [[Virtual Console]] versions, adjusting the time on the [[Nintendo 3DS]] clock does not affect the in-game time.

=====Morning=====
Morning, referred to as <sc>Morn</sc> in-game, is the time from 4:00 AM to 9:59 AM (04:00–09:59). Many [[Pokémon Trainer]]s are still asleep and there are many {{type|Bug}} Pokémon in the wild. However, the wild Pokémon that appear in the Morning are mostly the same as Day, with only slight differences. During the Morning, the rising sun tints the entire landscape with a yellowish hue.
[[File:DayGS.png|thumb|right|200px|Daytime near the water.]]

=====Day=====
Day is the time from 10:00 AM to 5:59 PM (10:00–17:59). The landscape is not tinted at all during this time, making it seem closer to the [[Generation I]] games (which do not have a time system). Day is the busiest time, as most people are up and about at this time and a wide variety of Pokémon appear.

=====Night=====
Night, referred to as <sc>Nite</sc> in-game, is the time from 6:00 PM to 3:59 AM (18:00–03:59). Wild Pokémon battles taking place at night use a slightly different music track. The world is colored a bluish-purple, and buildings have their lights on. If interacted with, the [[Pokémon Center lady]] will note that the player is still active despite the time, before healing the party.

[[File:NightGS.png|thumb|200px|right|Nighttime. Note the building lights illuminating brightly.]]

====Days of the week====
{{main|Days of the week}}
When the [[Pokégear]] is first received, the player's mother will ask them to set the day of the week as well. This affects several things, such as the [[National Park]]'s [[Bug-Catching Contest]] and which of the [[Week Siblings]] appears, though not much else.

====Resetting the clock====
In the Western and Korean versions, a secret function for resetting the game's clock that requires a password may be accessed from the title screen. The password is generated from the player's [[Original Trainer|name]], [[Trainer ID number]], and current amount of [[Pokémon Dollar|money]] ([https://bl4cksh4rk.github.io/Pokemon-GSC-Clock-Password-Generator/ Blackshark's GSC Clock Password Generator]). The game will then reboot and the [[main menu]] will return the "TIME NOT SET" [[error message]]. Proceeding will then load a screen in which the player can adjust the clock's data, including the [[Days of the week|weekday]]. Due to being based on the Japanese version, the password only takes into account the first five characters of the player's name.

While the function for manually resetting the clock is not available in the Japanese versions, the main menu error and the actual clock adjustment screen exist in all versions as they are used for when the clock data is invalid or corrupted.

=====Western Gold and Silver=====
Hold '''↓''', '''SELECT''', and '''B'''.

=====Western Crystal and Korean Gold and Silver=====
# Hold '''↓''', '''SELECT''', and '''B'''
# Release '''↓''' and '''B''', while still holding '''SELECT'''
# Hold '''←''' and '''↑''', while still holding '''SELECT'''
# Release '''SELECT'''

===Generation III===
Unlike Generation II, [[Generation III]] had no separate time periods, or even an ability to check the time in-game unless the player traveled back to [[Littleroot Town]], where they had set an analog clock at the beginning of the game. The overworld lighting does not change during different times of the day. Also, unlike Generation II, the time-based events were very few and extremely far between, with the clock mostly running to keep track of the growth of planted [[Berry|Berries]] ([[Berry glitch|although this was not completely foolproof]]). Additionally, there was no way to change the clock in this generation, not even for daylight saving time.

There were, however, some time-based functions in the games. For example, [[Shoal Cave]]'s water level would change every six hours, at 3:00 and 9:00 AM and PM (03:00, 09:00, 15:00, 21:00). Just the same, the [[time-based Evolution]]s are available.

Although a small part of the game, some events occur on a daily basis. Some NPCs give the player one Berry every day. [[Lilycove Department Store]] gives out Pokémon Loto Tickets for the [[Loto-ID|Pokémon Lottery Corner]], with the winning number changing daily. An old man who lives in [[Pacifidlog Town]] looks out for {{gdis|Mirage Island|III}}, and will, every day, generate a random number between 0 and 65535 and if this number matches the personality value of any of the Pokémon in the party, Mirage Island will appear in the game.

Time was only used in the Hoenn-based games. Time-based Evolutions cannot trigger in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. In {{g|Colosseum}}, the player receives {{p|Espeon}} and {{p|Umbreon}}, the only two Pokémon at the time that were result of time-based Evolution, at the beginning of the game. In {{Pokémon XD}}, the player's {{p|Eevee}} can evolve into Espeon or Umbreon with the [[Sun Shard]] or the [[Moon Shard]] in the Bag, respectively.

===Generation IV===
[[File:Gen IV Time change.png|frame|The overworld as it cycles through the day]]
In [[Generation IV]], the time function returned fully with many features from Generation II, including changes in the overworld lighting and in the availability of wild Pokémon at different times of day, being {{pkmn2|Nocturnal}}, {{pkmn2|Matutinal}}, or {{pkmn2|Diurnal}}. However, this time it uses the [[Nintendo DS]]'s system clock. The three time periods from Generation II return, with smoother transitions between them.

A calendar and day of the week system are also present. The game keeps track of the date of capture of every Pokémon. Some in-game events are influenced by the day of the week; for example, {{p|Drifloon}} only appear in the [[Valley Windworks]] on Fridays, and battles with {{ga|Barry}} in the [[Battle Zone]] can only be initiated on weekends.

The [[Pokédex]] also has a new function that displays where Pokémon are found in each time period. When it is first opened, the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] will also default to the current time of day.

Additionally, in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} only, the generic battle transitions change during nighttime (except for wild Pokémon in water). Cave battles are always treated as if it was nighttime, but places with cavelike encounters such as [[Sprout Tower]] or [[Ilex Forest]] properly account for the time.

=====Morning=====
Morning tints everything a pale blue color, changing from dark blue of night into bright blue of daytime. Morning lasts from 4:00 AM to 9:59 AM (04:00–9:59).

=====Day=====
Everything takes on its natural color during the day. Day lasts from 10:00 AM to 7:59 PM (10:00–19:59), with twilight lasting from around 5:00 PM (17:00) until night sets in. Twilight has its own set of eyecatches.

=====Night=====
Much like its Generation II counterpart, the world is dark, but pockmarked by the bright lights of buildings. Night lasts from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59), with lights in buildings turning off at 12:00 AM (00:00). A majority of areas in [[Sinnoh]] have slightly different music during the night, including [[Pokémon Center]]s, though this is not true in [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]].

===Generation V===
[[File:Gen V time change {{#switch: {{#time: F}}|January|May|September=spring|February|June|October=summer|March|July|November=autumn|winter}}.png|frame|The overworld as it cycles through the day during in-game {{#switch: {{#time: F}}|January|May|September=spring|February|June|October=summer|March|July|November=autumn|winter}}.]]
In {{game|Black and White|s}}, the concept of {{season}}s was introduced. These are akin to the seasons in the real world, only to allow for less restrictive gameplay, the seasons change with every month.

Time of day now varies depending on the current season. As in HeartGold and SoulSilver, day is divided in four different parts: morning, when floodlights in the cities switch off and the sun starts to rise; daytime, when everything is lightened; evening, when the floodlights switch on in the cities and everything starts to be lit with an orange hue; and then nighttime, which is characterized by a darker landscape, both in the overworld map and in battle.

In favor of seasons, Pokémon are no longer found at different times of day, meaning Pokémon that can be found in the current season can be found anytime during the season.

===Generation VI===
Time continued to be based on the system clock in Generation VI, now using the 3DS's clock to track time. Seasons from Generation V did not carry over, however. Therefore, the intervals for when morning, day, evening, and night occur are now constant. Unlike in previous generations, where the time period transitions lasted a few seconds, they may last up to 15 minutes, allowing less abrupt changes in the overworld lighting. If the 3DS clock is changed, time-based events will not occur for 24 hours and any Berries will reset.

In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the game always starts at daytime, the 3DS's clock being taken into account only after the player interacts with the analog clock in their room.

===Generation VII===
====Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon====
In {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun}} and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun}}, the clock functions conventionally, matching the [[Nintendo 3DS]]'s clock; however, in {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Moon}} and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Moon}}, the game runs its time offset by 12 hours from the 3DS's clock. In Pokémon Moon and Ultra Moon, this difference mainly affects the day-night cycle. Events that refresh daily still refresh when the 3DS's clock hits midnight (or noon in-game in Moon and Ultra Moon) and events that rely on the day of the week correlate to the day according to the 3DS's clock.

Specific scenes in the game, such as in the beginning of the game, will be set at specific times, with the clock effectively frozen until that part of the story is completed. Regardless of the games, the player is eventually able to travel to a world that has the opposite time by using the [[Ultra Wormhole]] at the [[Altar of the Sunne]]/[[Altar of the Moone|Moone]].

Different Pokémon can once again be found depending on the time of day. In the [[Rotom Pokédex]], these species are denoted with a different icon when viewed in the Habitat menu. Certain areas in [[Alola]] have slightly different background music depending on the time of day, such as [[Hau'oli City]].

=====Times of day=====
Note that these times refer to the time on the 3DS's clock. That is, within Pokémon Moon and Ultra Moon, "day" still starts at 6 AM (06:00) as far as the game world is concerned. This may be seen at any place that acknowledges the time, such as the [[Pokémon Center Café]].

====Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!====
Despite [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] having a few time-based features, they are set in perpetual daytime, much like the original {{game|Yellow}}.

===Generation VIII===
====Pokémon Sword and Shield====
In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, time is set to specific times of day during the main story as a narrative device. This affects all areas of [[Galar]] outside of the [[Wild Area]], and even influences Evolution. However, daily events (such as the [[Battle Café]] matches) still reset at midnight according to the system time. After the player becomes {{pkmn|Champion}}, time is no longer pre-set outside the Wild Area, and functions solely based on the system time, even during post-game story scenes like the arc involving [[Sordward]] and [[Shielbert]].

====Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl====
In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, the time function remains the same as [[Generation IV]]'s, including changes in the overworld lighting and in the availability of wild Pokémon at different times of day, being {{pkmn2|Nocturnal}}, {{pkmn2|Matutinal}}, or {{pkmn2|Diurnal}}. However, this time it uses the [[Nintendo Switch]]'s system clock.

A calendar and day of the week system are also present. The game keeps track of the date of capture of every Pokémon. Some in-game events are influenced by the day of the week; for example, {{p|Drifloon}} only appear in the [[Valley Windworks]] on Fridays, and battles with {{ga|Barry}} in the [[Battle Zone]] can only be initiated on weekends.

======Morning======
Everything is bright and sunny, with the lighting facing from the west. Morning times are from 4:00 AM to 9:59 AM (04:00–9:59).

======Day======
Everything takes on its natural color during the day. Day lasts from 10:00 AM to 7:59 PM (10:00–19:59), with twilight lasting from around 5:00 PM (17:00) until night sets in. Twilight has its own set of eyecatches.

======Night======
Much like its Generation IV counterpart, the world is dark, but pockmarked by the bright lights of buildings. Night lasts from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59), with lights in buildings turning off at 12:00 AM (00:00). A majority of areas in [[Sinnoh]] have slightly different music during the night, including [[Pokémon Center]]s.

====Pokémon Legends: Arceus====
{{g|Legends: Arceus}} has its own time system<ref>[https://gist.github.com/Lusamine/89ca91f672aa782f073157dbed495af2 LA Day & Night Cycle.md by Lusamine]</ref>, independent from the system clock. A minute in real life corresponds to an hour in-game. The player can instantly change the current time of day, and even skip to the next day, by resting at {{DL|Jubilife Village|your quarters|their quarters}} or the bed present at each [[Base camp]].

=====Times of day=====
{| class="roundtable c" style="margin: auto; background: #{{Hisui color}}; border: 3px solid #{{Hisui color dark}};"
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Morning
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Day

| 9:00 PM–4:59 AM<br>(21:00–04:59)<br>8 real minutes
|}

Note that Morning and Day are only distinct internally, (as there are no Pokémon that spawn exclusively in "Morning but not Day", nor in "Day but not Morning"), and any [[Research task (Legends: Arceus)|Research Task]]s that require "daylight" can be completed in both Morning and Day. (Between 5:00 AM and 6:59 PM)

{{main|Time-based_Evolution#Teddiursa_line|Time-based Evolution → Teddiursa line}}
Additionally, there are 8 phases of the moon, which naturally advances to the next phase every two days at 5:00 AM, and can also be advanced manually by resting twice to any time that would pass 5:00 AM. {{p|Ursaring}} can only evolve into {{p|Ursaluna}} when using a [[Peat Block]] during a Full Moon.

=====Changing time=====
The time can be changed by going to a [[Base camp]] or the player's bed in [[Jubilife Village]] and choosing to rest until a certain time. Selecting "Just a little while" will heal the player's [[party]] members, but not advance the current time. Selecting the remaining options will advance the day/night cycle to the following times:

{| class="roundtable c" style="margin: auto; background: #{{Hisui color}}; border: 3px solid #{{Hisui color dark}};"
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until morning
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until midday
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until evening
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until nightfall
|-
| 7:00 AM<br>(07:00)
| 12:00 AM<br>(12:00)
| 7:00 PM<br>(19:00)
| 9:00 PM<br>(21:00)
|}

Resting in this manner will however reset the current state in the area and despawn any time-specific Pokémon encounters, as well as resetting timings for [[space-time distortion]]s and other similar timed events.

===Generation IX===
====Pokémon Scarlet and Violet====
{{g|Scarlet and Violet}} have their own time system, which with 1 real-life day equal to 20 in-game days. This time can be influenced by the player by altering the system clock prior to opening the game,<ref>[https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657628501917442052 Scarlet and Violet Day/Night Cycle Mechanics by Atrius97, via Twitter]</ref> with the time value being determined when the game is first opened.<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657611236694196225</ref> However, the day/night cycle does not begin until the player loads into the overworld, so any changes to the system clock while the game is loading or at the in-game start menu have no effect, the game will load the time from when the game was initially opened. The day/night cycle lasts 72 real minutes in total, repeating 20 times over the course of 24 hours. Different Pokémon can spawn depending on the time of the day; unlike previous games, however, the brief period of evening has its own separate spawns defined as well.

Opening the map by pressing Y will show an icon in the top-center of the map<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657609709019623426</ref> indicating the time of day. This icon will dynamically update to show the current time period, however Morning does not have its own unique icon, instead sharing an icon with Day.<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657628499975479296</ref> While the player is in [[Area Zero]], this is the only way to tell the time of day without having to come out.

There are two exceptions to the day/night cycle, the first being that during the tutorial, the time will be locked to Day until visiting [[Naranja Academy]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]{{sup/9|V}} for the first time and obtaining {{p|Koraidon}}{{sup/9|S}}/{{p|Miraidon}}{{sup/9|V}}.

[[Area Zero]] is also unaffected by the day/night cycle (with {{p|Flutter Mane}} being the only exception due to a quirk<ref>[https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1647304950358106114 Flutter Mane Spawning Mechanics Quirk]</ref>), with time-exclusive species and forms spawning regardless of the current time in the rest of Paldea.

The current time is shared between all players in the same instance while playing in co-op via [[Union Circle]], determined by the player hosting the group.

Due to their physical locations being relatively distant from Paldea, both [[Kitakami]] and the [[Terarium]] experience different {{wp|timezone}}s, with Kitakami being 18 (real life) minutes ahead of Paldea, and the Terarium being 18 (real life) minutes behind Paldea. These time differences are roughly the same as those of their [[Pokémon world in relation to the real world|real world inspirations]].

If defeated, static encounters such as the [[treasures of ruin]], and fixed [[symbol encounter]]s such as wild Tera Pokémon will reappear if the player reboots their game after one hour has passed in the [[Nintendo Switch|Switch]]'s internal clock following their defeat. This is independent from Scarlet and Violet's in-game time system.

====Pokémon Legends: Z-A====
:''See also: [[Battle_zone_(Lumiose_City)|Battle Zone]]''
[[File:Legends Z-A Day-Night Key Art.png|thumb|right|250px|[[Lumiose City]] during the day and night in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}]]
The time of day plays a particular function in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}'s appearance of [[Lumiose City]]. The day lasts for 16 real time minutes, while the night lasts 8 minutes.

During the night, areas of the city are sectioned off similarly to [[Wild_zone|Wild zones]] and become [[Battle_zone_(Lumiose_City)|"Battle zones"]], where [[Pokémon Trainer]]s become the main focus instead. The {{player}} is able to partake in an event known as the [[Z-A Royale]] when battle zones are up.

=====Changing time=====

The time can be changed by sitting on a bench and choosing to "kill some time" until nightfall or morning.

When time changes between night and day , wild Pokémon spawns are rerolled, this excludes previously spawned [[Shiny_Pokémon|Shiny Pokémon]] if the time was changed by sitting on a bench.
If a Shiny Pokémon happens to be a night or day only spawn, it will spawn once more when the player changes back to night or day, respectively.

The natural day and night cycle always rerolls all Pokémon regardless of shininess.

===Time-specific events===
:''This section relates only to events that occur at specific times but not necessarily on a particular day. For events that occur only on specific days of the week (but not at a particular time), see [[days of the week]].''

* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}} in [[Mt. Moon Square]] will trigger between [[Days of the week|Monday]] night at 8:00 PM and [[Days of the week#Tuesday|Tuesday]] morning at 4:00 AM (20:00–4:00).
* {{Daisy}} will massage the player's Pokémon between 3:00 and 4:00 PM (15:00–16:00).
* {{tc|Police Officer|Officers}} will only challenge the player at night from 6:00 PM to 3:59 AM (18:00–03:59).
* The wild battle theme played in [[Johto]] and some locations in [[Kanto]] is slightly different at night from 6:00 PM to 3:59 AM (18:00–03:59).

======Effects of changing the clock======
If the clock is [[#Resetting the clock|reset]], every time-based event moves forward and can be repeated right away. Time-based events with a specific window need the clock to be set within that frame. In these games, the time-based events are:

* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}}.
* The [[Haircut brothers]].
* The {{p|Lapras}} {{DL|Union Cave|Generations II and IV|special encounter}}.
* The {{DL|Radio|Lucky Number Show}}.
* Picking [[Apricorn]]s and {{Berries}} from trees.
* Receiving Apricorn Balls from [[Kurt]].
* The [[S.S. Aqua]] voyage.
* The rematch against {{ga|Silver}} at [[Indigo Plateau]].
* The [[Trainer House]] battle.

====Generation III====
=====Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald=====
* The tides in [[Shoal Cave]] depend on the time of day. It is high tide from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM (09:00–15:00) and 9:00 PM to 3:00 AM (21:00–03:00), and low tide from 3:00 PM to 9:00 PM (15:00–21:00) and 3:00 AM to 9:00 AM (03:00–09:00).
There is no side-effect to changing the clock in these games.

====Generation IV====
=====Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum=====
{{incomplete|section|Many effects of changing the clock are missing}}
* {{tc|Jogger}}s will only challenge the player in the morning from 4:00 to 9:59 AM (04:00–09:59).
* {{tc|Police Officer|Policemen}} will only challenge the player at night from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59).
* The player can catch {{p|Rotom}} once from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59) in the [[Old Chateau]].
* The [[Pal Park]] transfer can occur only once every 24 hours.
* The music tracks for [[Twinleaf Town]], [[Sandgem Town]], [[Jubilife City]], [[Oreburgh City]], [[Floaroma Town]], [[Eterna City]]/[[Celestic Town]], [[Hearthome City]], [[Solaceon Town]]/[[Pastoria City]], [[Veilstone City]], [[Snowpoint City]], [[Sunyshore City]], the [[Pokémon League (Sinnoh)|Pokémon League]], the [[Fight Area]], [[Valor Lakefront]], the [[Pokémon Center]]s, and Routes 201, 203, 205, 206, 216, 225, and 228 will change depending on if it's day or night.

======Effects of changing the clock======
* [[Pal Park]]: the player must wait 24 hours from when the game is opened after changing the clock to be able to {{DL|Pal Park|Migration|migrate}}. If the clock was changed, the game needs to sync with the new time so that the penalization period starts running. This can be accomplished by booting the game and saving. Otherwise, the penalization period cannot begin nor end. If the game was booted in a different system, the penalization period can be prevented simply by not saving and, if available, returning the game to the system it's synchronized with.

=====Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver=====
* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}} in [[Mt. Moon Square]] will trigger between [[days of the week|Monday]] [[Time|night]] at 8:00 PM and [[days of the week#Tuesday|Tuesday]] [[Time|morning]] at 4:00 AM (20:00–4:00).
* {{Daisy}} will massage the player's Pokémon between 3:00 PM and 4:00 PM (15:00–16:00).
* {{tc|Police Officer|Policemen}} will only challenge the player at night from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59).

======Effects of changing the clock======
If the game detects a different clock, either by changing the date or time of the system or by booting the game in a different system and saving, time-based events will be affected differently.

The following time-based events can be done by directly changing the clock to the time window in which they're active:

* The [[Bug-Catching Contest]].
* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}}.
* Commemorative {{DL|Photography|Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver|pictures}}.
* Items available in the {{DL|Pokéathlon Dome|Athlete Shop}} at the Pokéathlon Dome.
* The {{p|Lapras}} {{DL|Union Cave|Generations II and IV|special encounter}} in Union Cave.
* Pokégear [[radio|radio shows]].
* Obtaining the {{DL|Fighting Dojo/Generation IV|Phone listing|Gym Leaders' phone numbers}}.
* {{DL|Fighting Dojo/Generation IV|Rematch schedule|Rematch calls}} with the Gym Leaders.
* The rematch against {{ga|Silver}} at [[Indigo Plateau]].
* The [[S.S. Aqua]] voyage (including receiving an item from the captain).
* The {{DL|Goldenrod Tunnel|shops}} in the Goldenrod Tunnel.
* The [[Week Siblings]] appearing.

The following daily events can be done by changing the clock to 23:59 and letting the clock roll over to the next day in-game:

* {{DL|Radio|Buena's Password}} in Goldenrod City. The password will not be available right after the clock rolls over. Saving the game on the new day, then changing the clock for a second time to when (or waiting until) her show is on air (2:00, 5:00, 8:00, 11:00, 14:00, 17:00, 20:00, and 23:00) is necessary.
* {{Daisy}}'s massage in [[Pallet Town]]. The massage will not be available right after the clock rolls over. Saving the game after midnight, then changing the clock for a second time to when (or waiting until) the massage can be requested (15:00–16:00) is necessary.
* [[Mass outbreak]]s.
* Hearing a new [[Trend|trendy phrase]] from the old man on {{rt|16|Kanto}}.
* Picking [[Apricorn]]s from trees.
* The [[Loto-ID|Pokémon Lottery Corner]] in Goldenrod City.
* Receiving Apricorn Balls from [[Kurt]].
* Receiving [[Sticker|Seal]]s in Olivine City.
* The [[Trainer House]] battle in Viridian City.
* Receiving a [[Ribbon]] from one of the [[Week Siblings]].

The following time-based events are impacted negatively if the game detects any time change:

* {{DL|Berry|Generation IV|Berry growth}}: instead of calculating how long it has been since the game was last saved and matching the Berry's timer to the system's clock, the Berry's timer resumes right from when the game was last saved.
* {{safari|Johto}} {{DL|Johto Safari Zone|area upgrades}}: the invisible day counter will freeze for 24 hours, period after which it will resume counting days from where it left off when the game was last saved. Just like with [[Pal Park]] in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, if the clock was changed, the game needs to sync with the new time so that the penalization period starts running. This can be accomplished by booting the game and saving. Otherwise, the penalization period cannot begin nor end. If the game was booted in a different system, the penalization period can be prevented simply by not saving and, if available, returning the game to the system it's synchronized with.

* A girl on {{rt|8|Unova}} will give out one of the four {{cat|weather duration-extending items}} per day. The rock changes depending on the time of day:

==In the spin-off games==
===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series===
In the {{g|Mystery Dungeon series}} a day has passed every time the player comes back from an adventure or plays [[Sentry Duty]]. During the story, one day can incorporate clearing several dungeons in a row with save points in between.

Clearing [[Blizzard Island]] gives the player the choice to go through [[Crevice Cave]] or not, if the player chooses not to a day has passed. When going to [[Hidden Land]], a day never passes unless the player leaves back to [[Treasure Town]] or completes [[Temporal Tower]].

===Pokémon Conquest===
In {{g|Conquest}}, The shortest unit of time measured in Pokémon Conquest is a month (not real time). Every story starts on January, Year 1. In two stories (''The Rebel'' and ''Tragic Determination''), the goal is to defeat [[Nobunaga]] before January, Year 4 (before 3 years had passed).

Opposing armies will only attack at the very start of the month, except for one time in ''The Legend of Ransei'' where Shingen or Kenshin attack after they decline a battle with the {{player}}.

===Pokémon GO===
In {{g|GO}}, day and night changes depend on sunset and sunrise in the player's location. The difference between day and night is the appearance, the music, and the Evolution of some Pokémon. Additionally, {{OBP|Raid Battle|GO}}s do not spawn during a specific range of hours at night. Sunny [[weather]] during the day becomes Clear weather during the night; the effects of the two, however, are identical.

If a [[Mystery Box]] is acquired and opened, three days must pass before it can be opened again.

For the time-based Evolutions, see [[Time-based Evolution#Pokémon GO|Time-based Evolution → Pokémon GO]].

===Pokémon Sleep===
In {{g|Sleep}}, the day is divided into three parts for three [[Cooking (Sleep)|meals]]: morning (4:00 AM to 11:59 AM) for breakfast, day (12:00 PM to 5:59 PM) for lunch, and night (6:00 PM to 3:59 AM) for dinner. These times are all set based on the player's current time zone. The daily events (such as sleeping time, shop events, etc) last from 4:00 AM to 3:59 AM the next day. The week starts on Monday.

Prior to version 1.5.0 (released April 18, 2024), night lasted till 5:59 AM instead of 3:59 AM and morning began from 6:00 AM instead of 4:00 AM.

===Pokémon Party mini===
{{missing image|section|Add clock image}}
In [[Pokémon Party mini]], the Celebi's Clock is a clock with date, alarm and stopwatch functions.

===Eevee × Tamagotchi===
{{missing image|section|Add clock image}}
In [[Eevee × Tamagotchi]], there is a digital clock function. The player is required to set up the time before starting the game.

'''Time''' is a mechanic in the [[Pokémon games]]. It was introduced in [[Generation II]] and has been a major component of almost all games released afterward. Time affects both the [[Evolution]] of several {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and whether certain Pokémon can be found in the [[wild Pokémon|wild]]. Some events may take place at a specific time of day, or on a particular [[days of the week|day of the week]]. {{g|Legends: Arceus}} and {{g|Scarlet and Violet}} use their own in-game time system and don't depend on the player or console's real time.

{{Berries}} are governed by the time function, maturing after a certain amount of time has passed. Much like [[weather]], the games' time function has been revised and expanded in each subsequent generation after its introduction.

==In the core series games==
===Generation II===
[[File:MorningGS.png|thumb|right|250px|{{rt|29|Johto}} in the morning]]
In [[Generation II]], the changing time of day is one of the games' distinctive features. Wild encounters vary based on the time of day; several Pokémon were designed with this in mind, such as {{p|Hoothoot}} and {{p|Noctowl}}.

At the [[new game|beginning]] of all three games, the player is required to set the clock, even before selecting a name. The default time is 10:00 AM (10:00). When the player speaks to their {{jo|Mom}} at the start of the game, the player must specify whether it is currently {{wp|daylight saving time}} or not; they can adjust the clock for entering or exiting daylight savings time.

The clock can be reset through a code in all three games, although it is more difficult to do so in {{game|Crystal}}. For the [[Virtual Console]] versions, adjusting the time on the [[Nintendo 3DS]] clock does not affect the in-game time.

=====Morning=====
Morning, referred to as <sc>Morn</sc> in-game, is the time from 4:00 AM to 9:59 AM (04:00–09:59). Many [[Pokémon Trainer]]s are still asleep and there are many {{type|Bug}} Pokémon in the wild. However, the wild Pokémon that appear in the Morning are mostly the same as Day, with only slight differences. During the Morning, the rising sun tints the entire landscape with a yellowish hue.
[[File:DayGS.png|thumb|right|200px|Daytime near the water.]]

=====Day=====
Day is the time from 10:00 AM to 5:59 PM (10:00–17:59). The landscape is not tinted at all during this time, making it seem closer to the [[Generation I]] games (which do not have a time system). Day is the busiest time, as most people are up and about at this time and a wide variety of Pokémon appear.

=====Night=====
Night, referred to as <sc>Nite</sc> in-game, is the time from 6:00 PM to 3:59 AM (18:00–03:59). Wild Pokémon battles taking place at night use a slightly different music track. The world is colored a bluish-purple, and buildings have their lights on. If interacted with, the [[Pokémon Center lady]] will note that the player is still active despite the time, before healing the party.

[[File:NightGS.png|thumb|200px|right|Nighttime. Note the building lights illuminating brightly.]]

====Days of the week====
{{main|Days of the week}}
When the [[Pokégear]] is first received, the player's mother will ask them to set the day of the week as well. This affects several things, such as the [[National Park]]'s [[Bug-Catching Contest]] and which of the [[Week Siblings]] appears, though not much else.

====Resetting the clock====
In the Western and Korean versions, a secret function for resetting the game's clock that requires a password may be accessed from the title screen. The password is generated from the player's [[Original Trainer|name]], [[Trainer ID number]], and current amount of [[Pokémon Dollar|money]] ([https://bl4cksh4rk.github.io/Pokemon-GSC-Clock-Password-Generator/ Blackshark's GSC Clock Password Generator]). The game will then reboot and the [[main menu]] will return the "TIME NOT SET" [[error message]]. Proceeding will then load a screen in which the player can adjust the clock's data, including the [[Days of the week|weekday]]. Due to being based on the Japanese version, the password only takes into account the first five characters of the player's name.

While the function for manually resetting the clock is not available in the Japanese versions, the main menu error and the actual clock adjustment screen exist in all versions as they are used for when the clock data is invalid or corrupted.

=====Western Gold and Silver=====
Hold '''↓''', '''SELECT''', and '''B'''.

=====Western Crystal and Korean Gold and Silver=====
# Hold '''↓''', '''SELECT''', and '''B'''
# Release '''↓''' and '''B''', while still holding '''SELECT'''
# Hold '''←''' and '''↑''', while still holding '''SELECT'''
# Release '''SELECT'''

===Generation III===
Unlike Generation II, [[Generation III]] had no separate time periods, or even an ability to check the time in-game unless the player traveled back to [[Littleroot Town]], where they had set an analog clock at the beginning of the game. The overworld lighting does not change during different times of the day. Also, unlike Generation II, the time-based events were very few and extremely far between, with the clock mostly running to keep track of the growth of planted [[Berry|Berries]] ([[Berry glitch|although this was not completely foolproof]]). Additionally, there was no way to change the clock in this generation, not even for daylight saving time.

There were, however, some time-based functions in the games. For example, [[Shoal Cave]]'s water level would change every six hours, at 3:00 and 9:00 AM and PM (03:00, 09:00, 15:00, 21:00). Just the same, the [[time-based Evolution]]s are available.

Although a small part of the game, some events occur on a daily basis. Some NPCs give the player one Berry every day. [[Lilycove Department Store]] gives out Pokémon Loto Tickets for the [[Loto-ID|Pokémon Lottery Corner]], with the winning number changing daily. An old man who lives in [[Pacifidlog Town]] looks out for {{gdis|Mirage Island|III}}, and will, every day, generate a random number between 0 and 65535 and if this number matches the personality value of any of the Pokémon in the party, Mirage Island will appear in the game.

Time was only used in the Hoenn-based games. Time-based Evolutions cannot trigger in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. In {{g|Colosseum}}, the player receives {{p|Espeon}} and {{p|Umbreon}}, the only two Pokémon at the time that were result of time-based Evolution, at the beginning of the game. In {{Pokémon XD}}, the player's {{p|Eevee}} can evolve into Espeon or Umbreon with the [[Sun Shard]] or the [[Moon Shard]] in the Bag, respectively.

===Generation IV===
[[File:Gen IV Time change.png|frame|The overworld as it cycles through the day]]
In [[Generation IV]], the time function returned fully with many features from Generation II, including changes in the overworld lighting and in the availability of wild Pokémon at different times of day, being {{pkmn2|Nocturnal}}, {{pkmn2|Matutinal}}, or {{pkmn2|Diurnal}}. However, this time it uses the [[Nintendo DS]]'s system clock. The three time periods from Generation II return, with smoother transitions between them.

A calendar and day of the week system are also present. The game keeps track of the date of capture of every Pokémon. Some in-game events are influenced by the day of the week; for example, {{p|Drifloon}} only appear in the [[Valley Windworks]] on Fridays, and battles with {{ga|Barry}} in the [[Battle Zone]] can only be initiated on weekends.

The [[Pokédex]] also has a new function that displays where Pokémon are found in each time period. When it is first opened, the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] will also default to the current time of day.

Additionally, in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} only, the generic battle transitions change during nighttime (except for wild Pokémon in water). Cave battles are always treated as if it was nighttime, but places with cavelike encounters such as [[Sprout Tower]] or [[Ilex Forest]] properly account for the time.

=====Morning=====
Morning tints everything a pale blue color, changing from dark blue of night into bright blue of daytime. Morning lasts from 4:00 AM to 9:59 AM (04:00–9:59).

=====Day=====
Everything takes on its natural color during the day. Day lasts from 10:00 AM to 7:59 PM (10:00–19:59), with twilight lasting from around 5:00 PM (17:00) until night sets in. Twilight has its own set of eyecatches.

=====Night=====
Much like its Generation II counterpart, the world is dark, but pockmarked by the bright lights of buildings. Night lasts from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59), with lights in buildings turning off at 12:00 AM (00:00). A majority of areas in [[Sinnoh]] have slightly different music during the night, including [[Pokémon Center]]s, though this is not true in [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]].

===Generation V===
[[File:Gen V time change {{#switch: {{#time: F}}|January|May|September=spring|February|June|October=summer|March|July|November=autumn|winter}}.png|frame|The overworld as it cycles through the day during in-game {{#switch: {{#time: F}}|January|May|September=spring|February|June|October=summer|March|July|November=autumn|winter}}.]]
In {{game|Black and White|s}}, the concept of {{season}}s was introduced. These are akin to the seasons in the real world, only to allow for less restrictive gameplay, the seasons change with every month.

Time of day now varies depending on the current season. As in HeartGold and SoulSilver, day is divided in four different parts: morning, when floodlights in the cities switch off and the sun starts to rise; daytime, when everything is lightened; evening, when the floodlights switch on in the cities and everything starts to be lit with an orange hue; and then nighttime, which is characterized by a darker landscape, both in the overworld map and in battle.

In favor of seasons, Pokémon are no longer found at different times of day, meaning Pokémon that can be found in the current season can be found anytime during the season.

===Generation VI===
Time continued to be based on the system clock in Generation VI, now using the 3DS's clock to track time. Seasons from Generation V did not carry over, however. Therefore, the intervals for when morning, day, evening, and night occur are now constant. Unlike in previous generations, where the time period transitions lasted a few seconds, they may last up to 15 minutes, allowing less abrupt changes in the overworld lighting. If the 3DS clock is changed, time-based events will not occur for 24 hours and any Berries will reset.

In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the game always starts at daytime, the 3DS's clock being taken into account only after the player interacts with the analog clock in their room.

===Generation VII===
====Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon====
In {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun}} and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun}}, the clock functions conventionally, matching the [[Nintendo 3DS]]'s clock; however, in {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Moon}} and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Moon}}, the game runs its time offset by 12 hours from the 3DS's clock. In Pokémon Moon and Ultra Moon, this difference mainly affects the day-night cycle. Events that refresh daily still refresh when the 3DS's clock hits midnight (or noon in-game in Moon and Ultra Moon) and events that rely on the day of the week correlate to the day according to the 3DS's clock.

Specific scenes in the game, such as in the beginning of the game, will be set at specific times, with the clock effectively frozen until that part of the story is completed. Regardless of the games, the player is eventually able to travel to a world that has the opposite time by using the [[Ultra Wormhole]] at the [[Altar of the Sunne]]/[[Altar of the Moone|Moone]].

Different Pokémon can once again be found depending on the time of day. In the [[Rotom Pokédex]], these species are denoted with a different icon when viewed in the Habitat menu. Certain areas in [[Alola]] have slightly different background music depending on the time of day, such as [[Hau'oli City]].

=====Times of day=====
Note that these times refer to the time on the 3DS's clock. That is, within Pokémon Moon and Ultra Moon, "day" still starts at 6 AM (06:00) as far as the game world is concerned. This may be seen at any place that acknowledges the time, such as the [[Pokémon Center Café]].

====Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!====
Despite [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] having a few time-based features, they are set in perpetual daytime, much like the original {{game|Yellow}}.

===Generation VIII===
====Pokémon Sword and Shield====
In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, time is set to specific times of day during the main story as a narrative device. This affects all areas of [[Galar]] outside of the [[Wild Area]], and even influences Evolution. However, daily events (such as the [[Battle Café]] matches) still reset at midnight according to the system time. After the player becomes {{pkmn|Champion}}, time is no longer pre-set outside the Wild Area, and functions solely based on the system time, even during post-game story scenes like the arc involving [[Sordward]] and [[Shielbert]].

====Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl====
In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, the time function remains the same as [[Generation IV]]'s, including changes in the overworld lighting and in the availability of wild Pokémon at different times of day, being {{pkmn2|Nocturnal}}, {{pkmn2|Matutinal}}, or {{pkmn2|Diurnal}}. However, this time it uses the [[Nintendo Switch]]'s system clock.

A calendar and day of the week system are also present. The game keeps track of the date of capture of every Pokémon. Some in-game events are influenced by the day of the week; for example, {{p|Drifloon}} only appear in the [[Valley Windworks]] on Fridays, and battles with {{ga|Barry}} in the [[Battle Zone]] can only be initiated on weekends.

======Morning======
Everything is bright and sunny, with the lighting facing from the west. Morning times are from 4:00 AM to 9:59 AM (04:00–9:59).

======Day======
Everything takes on its natural color during the day. Day lasts from 10:00 AM to 7:59 PM (10:00–19:59), with twilight lasting from around 5:00 PM (17:00) until night sets in. Twilight has its own set of eyecatches.

======Night======
Much like its Generation IV counterpart, the world is dark, but pockmarked by the bright lights of buildings. Night lasts from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59), with lights in buildings turning off at 12:00 AM (00:00). A majority of areas in [[Sinnoh]] have slightly different music during the night, including [[Pokémon Center]]s.

====Pokémon Legends: Arceus====
{{g|Legends: Arceus}} has its own time system<ref>[https://gist.github.com/Lusamine/89ca91f672aa782f073157dbed495af2 LA Day & Night Cycle.md by Lusamine]</ref>, independent from the system clock. A minute in real life corresponds to an hour in-game. The player can instantly change the current time of day, and even skip to the next day, by resting at {{DL|Jubilife Village|your quarters|their quarters}} or the bed present at each [[Base camp]].

=====Times of day=====
{| class="roundtable c" style="margin: auto; background: #{{Hisui color}}; border: 3px solid #{{Hisui color dark}};"
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Morning
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Day

|-
| 5:00 AM–11:59 AM<br>(05:00–11:59)<br>7 real minutes

| 9:00 PM–4:59 AM<br>(21:00–04:59)<br>8 real minutes
|}

Note that Morning and Day are only distinct internally, (as there are no Pokémon that spawn exclusively in "Morning but not Day", nor in "Day but not Morning"), and any [[Research task (Legends: Arceus)|Research Task]]s that require "daylight" can be completed in both Morning and Day. (Between 5:00 AM and 6:59 PM)

{{main|Time-based_Evolution#Teddiursa_line|Time-based Evolution → Teddiursa line}}
Additionally, there are 8 phases of the moon, which naturally advances to the next phase every two days at 5:00 AM, and can also be advanced manually by resting twice to any time that would pass 5:00 AM. {{p|Ursaring}} can only evolve into {{p|Ursaluna}} when using a [[Peat Block]] during a Full Moon.

=====Changing time=====
The time can be changed by going to a [[Base camp]] or the player's bed in [[Jubilife Village]] and choosing to rest until a certain time. Selecting "Just a little while" will heal the player's [[party]] members, but not advance the current time. Selecting the remaining options will advance the day/night cycle to the following times:

{| class="roundtable c" style="margin: auto; background: #{{Hisui color}}; border: 3px solid #{{Hisui color dark}};"
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until morning
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until midday
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until evening
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until nightfall
|-
| 7:00 AM<br>(07:00)
| 12:00 AM<br>(12:00)
| 7:00 PM<br>(19:00)
| 9:00 PM<br>(21:00)
|}

Resting in this manner will however reset the current state in the area and despawn any time-specific Pokémon encounters, as well as resetting timings for [[space-time distortion]]s and other similar timed events.

===Generation IX===
====Pokémon Scarlet and Violet====
{{g|Scarlet and Violet}} have their own time system, which with 1 real-life day equal to 20 in-game days. This time can be influenced by the player by altering the system clock prior to opening the game,<ref>[https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657628501917442052 Scarlet and Violet Day/Night Cycle Mechanics by Atrius97, via Twitter]</ref> with the time value being determined when the game is first opened.<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657611236694196225</ref> However, the day/night cycle does not begin until the player loads into the overworld, so any changes to the system clock while the game is loading or at the in-game start menu have no effect, the game will load the time from when the game was initially opened. The day/night cycle lasts 72 real minutes in total, repeating 20 times over the course of 24 hours. Different Pokémon can spawn depending on the time of the day; unlike previous games, however, the brief period of evening has its own separate spawns defined as well.

Opening the map by pressing Y will show an icon in the top-center of the map<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657609709019623426</ref> indicating the time of day. This icon will dynamically update to show the current time period, however Morning does not have its own unique icon, instead sharing an icon with Day.<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657628499975479296</ref> While the player is in [[Area Zero]], this is the only way to tell the time of day without having to come out.

There are two exceptions to the day/night cycle, the first being that during the tutorial, the time will be locked to Day until visiting [[Naranja Academy]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]{{sup/9|V}} for the first time and obtaining {{p|Koraidon}}{{sup/9|S}}/{{p|Miraidon}}{{sup/9|V}}.

[[Area Zero]] is also unaffected by the day/night cycle (with {{p|Flutter Mane}} being the only exception due to a quirk<ref>[https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1647304950358106114 Flutter Mane Spawning Mechanics Quirk]</ref>), with time-exclusive species and forms spawning regardless of the current time in the rest of Paldea.

The current time is shared between all players in the same instance while playing in co-op via [[Union Circle]], determined by the player hosting the group.

Due to their physical locations being relatively distant from Paldea, both [[Kitakami]] and the [[Terarium]] experience different {{wp|timezone}}s, with Kitakami being 18 (real life) minutes ahead of Paldea, and the Terarium being 18 (real life) minutes behind Paldea. These time differences are roughly the same as those of their [[Pokémon world in relation to the real world|real world inspirations]].

If defeated, static encounters such as the [[treasures of ruin]], and fixed [[symbol encounter]]s such as wild Tera Pokémon will reappear if the player reboots their game after one hour has passed in the [[Nintendo Switch|Switch]]'s internal clock following their defeat. This is independent from Scarlet and Violet's in-game time system.

====Pokémon Legends: Z-A====
:''See also: [[Battle_zone_(Lumiose_City)|Battle Zone]]''
[[File:Legends Z-A Day-Night Key Art.png|thumb|right|250px|[[Lumiose City]] during the day and night in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}]]
The time of day plays a particular function in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}'s appearance of [[Lumiose City]].The day lasts for 16 real time minutes, while the night lasts 8 minutes.
During the night, areas of the city are sectioned off similarly to [[Wild_zone|Wild zones]] and become [[Battle_zone_(Lumiose_City)|"Battle zones"]] , where [[Pokémon Trainer]]s become the main focus instead. The {{player}} is able to partake in an event known as the [[Z-A Royale]] when battle zones are up.
Additionally, the availability of some wild Pokémon changes between night and day. The player can switch between night and day by sitting on a bench, when doing so, wild Pokémon spawns are rerolled, excluding [[Shiny_Pokémon|Shiny Pokémon]].
If a Shiny Pokémon happens to be a night or day only spawn, it will spawn once more when the player changes back to night or day, respectively. The natural day and night cycle always rerolls all Pokémon, including shiny spawns.

===Time-specific events===
:''This section relates only to events that occur at specific times but not necessarily on a particular day. For events that occur only on specific days of the week (but not at a particular time), see [[days of the week]].''

====Time-based Evolutions====
{{main|Time-based Evolution}}
Several {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} [[Evolution|evolve]] during a certain time of day.

====Generation II====
* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}} in [[Mt. Moon Square]] will trigger between [[Days of the week|Monday]] night at 8:00 PM and [[Days of the week#Tuesday|Tuesday]] morning at 4:00 AM (20:00–4:00).
* {{Daisy}} will massage the player's Pokémon between 3:00 and 4:00 PM (15:00–16:00).
* {{tc|Police Officer|Officers}} will only challenge the player at night from 6:00 PM to 3:59 AM (18:00–03:59).
* The wild battle theme played in [[Johto]] and some locations in [[Kanto]] is slightly different at night from 6:00 PM to 3:59 AM (18:00–03:59).

======Effects of changing the clock======
If the clock is [[#Resetting the clock|reset]], every time-based event moves forward and can be repeated right away. Time-based events with a specific window need the clock to be set within that frame. In these games, the time-based events are:

* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}}.
* The [[Haircut brothers]].
* The {{p|Lapras}} {{DL|Union Cave|Generations II and IV|special encounter}}.
* The {{DL|Radio|Lucky Number Show}}.
* Picking [[Apricorn]]s and {{Berries}} from trees.
* Receiving Apricorn Balls from [[Kurt]].
* The [[S.S. Aqua]] voyage.
* The rematch against {{ga|Silver}} at [[Indigo Plateau]].
* The [[Trainer House]] battle.

====Generation III====
=====Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald=====
* The tides in [[Shoal Cave]] depend on the time of day. It is high tide from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM (09:00–15:00) and 9:00 PM to 3:00 AM (21:00–03:00), and low tide from 3:00 PM to 9:00 PM (15:00–21:00) and 3:00 AM to 9:00 AM (03:00–09:00).
There is no side-effect to changing the clock in these games.

====Generation IV====
=====Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum=====
{{incomplete|section|Many effects of changing the clock are missing}}
* {{tc|Jogger}}s will only challenge the player in the morning from 4:00 to 9:59 AM (04:00–09:59).
* {{tc|Police Officer|Policemen}} will only challenge the player at night from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59).
* The player can catch {{p|Rotom}} once from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59) in the [[Old Chateau]].
* The [[Pal Park]] transfer can occur only once every 24 hours.
* The music tracks for [[Twinleaf Town]], [[Sandgem Town]], [[Jubilife City]], [[Oreburgh City]], [[Floaroma Town]], [[Eterna City]]/[[Celestic Town]], [[Hearthome City]], [[Solaceon Town]]/[[Pastoria City]], [[Veilstone City]], [[Snowpoint City]], [[Sunyshore City]], the [[Pokémon League (Sinnoh)|Pokémon League]], the [[Fight Area]], [[Valor Lakefront]], the [[Pokémon Center]]s, and Routes 201, 203, 205, 206, 216, 225, and 228 will change depending on if it's day or night.

======Effects of changing the clock======
* [[Pal Park]]: the player must wait 24 hours from when the game is opened after changing the clock to be able to {{DL|Pal Park|Migration|migrate}}. If the clock was changed, the game needs to sync with the new time so that the penalization period starts running. This can be accomplished by booting the game and saving. Otherwise, the penalization period cannot begin nor end. If the game was booted in a different system, the penalization period can be prevented simply by not saving and, if available, returning the game to the system it's synchronized with.

=====Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver=====
* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}} in [[Mt. Moon Square]] will trigger between [[days of the week|Monday]] [[Time|night]] at 8:00 PM and [[days of the week#Tuesday|Tuesday]] [[Time|morning]] at 4:00 AM (20:00–4:00).
* {{Daisy}} will massage the player's Pokémon between 3:00 PM and 4:00 PM (15:00–16:00).
* {{tc|Police Officer|Policemen}} will only challenge the player at night from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59).

======Effects of changing the clock======
If the game detects a different clock, either by changing the date or time of the system or by booting the game in a different system and saving, time-based events will be affected differently.

The following time-based events can be done by directly changing the clock to the time window in which they're active:

* The [[Bug-Catching Contest]].
* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}}.
* Commemorative {{DL|Photography|Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver|pictures}}.
* Items available in the {{DL|Pokéathlon Dome|Athlete Shop}} at the Pokéathlon Dome.
* The {{p|Lapras}} {{DL|Union Cave|Generations II and IV|special encounter}} in Union Cave.
* Pokégear [[radio|radio shows]].
* Obtaining the {{DL|Fighting Dojo/Generation IV|Phone listing|Gym Leaders' phone numbers}}.
* {{DL|Fighting Dojo/Generation IV|Rematch schedule|Rematch calls}} with the Gym Leaders.
* The rematch against {{ga|Silver}} at [[Indigo Plateau]].
* The [[S.S. Aqua]] voyage (including receiving an item from the captain).
* The {{DL|Goldenrod Tunnel|shops}} in the Goldenrod Tunnel.
* The [[Week Siblings]] appearing.

The following daily events can be done by changing the clock to 23:59 and letting the clock roll over to the next day in-game:

* {{DL|Radio|Buena's Password}} in Goldenrod City. The password will not be available right after the clock rolls over. Saving the game on the new day, then changing the clock for a second time to when (or waiting until) her show is on air (2:00, 5:00, 8:00, 11:00, 14:00, 17:00, 20:00, and 23:00) is necessary.
* {{Daisy}}'s massage in [[Pallet Town]]. The massage will not be available right after the clock rolls over. Saving the game after midnight, then changing the clock for a second time to when (or waiting until) the massage can be requested (15:00–16:00) is necessary.
* [[Mass outbreak]]s.
* Hearing a new [[Trend|trendy phrase]] from the old man on {{rt|16|Kanto}}.
* Picking [[Apricorn]]s from trees.
* The [[Loto-ID|Pokémon Lottery Corner]] in Goldenrod City.
* Receiving Apricorn Balls from [[Kurt]].
* Receiving [[Sticker|Seal]]s in Olivine City.
* The [[Trainer House]] battle in Viridian City.
* Receiving a [[Ribbon]] from one of the [[Week Siblings]].

The following time-based events are impacted negatively if the game detects any time change:

* {{DL|Berry|Generation IV|Berry growth}}: instead of calculating how long it has been since the game was last saved and matching the Berry's timer to the system's clock, the Berry's timer resumes right from when the game was last saved.
* {{safari|Johto}} {{DL|Johto Safari Zone|area upgrades}}: the invisible day counter will freeze for 24 hours, period after which it will resume counting days from where it left off when the game was last saved. Just like with [[Pal Park]] in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, if the clock was changed, the game needs to sync with the new time so that the penalization period starts running. This can be accomplished by booting the game and saving. Otherwise, the penalization period cannot begin nor end. If the game was booted in a different system, the penalization period can be prevented simply by not saving and, if available, returning the game to the system it's synchronized with.

==In the spin-off games==
===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series===
In the {{g|Mystery Dungeon series}} a day has passed every time the player comes back from an adventure or plays [[Sentry Duty]]. During the story, one day can incorporate clearing several dungeons in a row with save points in between.

Clearing [[Blizzard Island]] gives the player the choice to go through [[Crevice Cave]] or not, if the player chooses not to a day has passed. When going to [[Hidden Land]], a day never passes unless the player leaves back to [[Treasure Town]] or completes [[Temporal Tower]].

===Pokémon Conquest===
In {{g|Conquest}}, The shortest unit of time measured in Pokémon Conquest is a month (not real time). Every story starts on January, Year 1. In two stories (''The Rebel'' and ''Tragic Determination''), the goal is to defeat [[Nobunaga]] before January, Year 4 (before 3 years had passed).

Opposing armies will only attack at the very start of the month, except for one time in ''The Legend of Ransei'' where Shingen or Kenshin attack after they decline a battle with the {{player}}.

===Pokémon GO===
In {{g|GO}}, day and night changes depend on sunset and sunrise in the player's location. The difference between day and night is the appearance, the music, and the Evolution of some Pokémon. Additionally, {{OBP|Raid Battle|GO}}s do not spawn during a specific range of hours at night. Sunny [[weather]] during the day becomes Clear weather during the night; the effects of the two, however, are identical.

If a [[Mystery Box]] is acquired and opened, three days must pass before it can be opened again.

For the time-based Evolutions, see [[Time-based Evolution#Pokémon GO|Time-based Evolution → Pokémon GO]].

===Pokémon Sleep===
In {{g|Sleep}}, the day is divided into three parts for three [[Cooking (Sleep)|meals]]: morning (4:00 AM to 11:59 AM) for breakfast, day (12:00 PM to 5:59 PM) for lunch, and night (6:00 PM to 3:59 AM) for dinner. These times are all set based on the player's current time zone. The daily events (such as sleeping time, shop events, etc) last from 4:00 AM to 3:59 AM the next day. The week starts on Monday.

Prior to version 1.5.0 (released April 18, 2024), night lasted till 5:59 AM instead of 3:59 AM and morning began from 6:00 AM instead of 4:00 AM.

===Pokémon Party mini===
{{missing image|section|Add clock image}}
In [[Pokémon Party mini]], the Celebi's Clock is a clock with date, alarm and stopwatch functions.

===Eevee × Tamagotchi===
{{missing image|section|Add clock image}}
In [[Eevee × Tamagotchi]], there is a digital clock function. The player is required to set up the time before starting the game.

'''Time''' is a mechanic in the [[Pokémon games]]. It was introduced in [[Generation II]] and has been a major component of almost all games released afterward. Time affects both the [[Evolution]] of several {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and whether certain Pokémon can be found in the [[wild Pokémon|wild]]. Some events may take place at a specific time of day, or on a particular [[days of the week|day of the week]]. {{g|Legends: Arceus}} and {{g|Scarlet and Violet}} use their own in-game time system and don't depend on the player or console's real time.

{{Berries}} are governed by the time function, maturing after a certain amount of time has passed. Much like [[weather]], the games' time function has been revised and expanded in each subsequent generation after its introduction.

==In the core series games==
===Generation II===
[[File:MorningGS.png|thumb|right|250px|{{rt|29|Johto}} in the morning]]
In [[Generation II]], the changing time of day is one of the games' distinctive features. Wild encounters vary based on the time of day; several Pokémon were designed with this in mind, such as {{p|Hoothoot}} and {{p|Noctowl}}.

At the [[new game|beginning]] of all three games, the player is required to set the clock, even before selecting a name. The default time is 10:00 AM (10:00). When the player speaks to their {{jo|Mom}} at the start of the game, the player must specify whether it is currently {{wp|daylight saving time}} or not; they can adjust the clock for entering or exiting daylight savings time.

The clock can be reset through a code in all three games, although it is more difficult to do so in {{game|Crystal}}. For the [[Virtual Console]] versions, adjusting the time on the [[Nintendo 3DS]] clock does not affect the in-game time.

=====Morning=====
Morning, referred to as <sc>Morn</sc> in-game, is the time from 4:00 AM to 9:59 AM (04:00–09:59). Many [[Pokémon Trainer]]s are still asleep and there are many {{type|Bug}} Pokémon in the wild. However, the wild Pokémon that appear in the Morning are mostly the same as Day, with only slight differences. During the Morning, the rising sun tints the entire landscape with a yellowish hue.
[[File:DayGS.png|thumb|right|200px|Daytime near the water.]]

=====Day=====
Day is the time from 10:00 AM to 5:59 PM (10:00–17:59). The landscape is not tinted at all during this time, making it seem closer to the [[Generation I]] games (which do not have a time system). Day is the busiest time, as most people are up and about at this time and a wide variety of Pokémon appear.

=====Night=====
Night, referred to as <sc>Nite</sc> in-game, is the time from 6:00 PM to 3:59 AM (18:00–03:59). Wild Pokémon battles taking place at night use a slightly different music track. The world is colored a bluish-purple, and buildings have their lights on. If interacted with, the [[Pokémon Center lady]] will note that the player is still active despite the time, before healing the party.

[[File:NightGS.png|thumb|200px|right|Nighttime. Note the building lights illuminating brightly.]]

====Days of the week====
{{main|Days of the week}}
When the [[Pokégear]] is first received, the player's mother will ask them to set the day of the week as well. This affects several things, such as the [[National Park]]'s [[Bug-Catching Contest]] and which of the [[Week Siblings]] appears, though not much else.

====Resetting the clock====
In the Western and Korean versions, a secret function for resetting the game's clock that requires a password may be accessed from the title screen. The password is generated from the player's [[Original Trainer|name]], [[Trainer ID number]], and current amount of [[Pokémon Dollar|money]] ([https://bl4cksh4rk.github.io/Pokemon-GSC-Clock-Password-Generator/ Blackshark's GSC Clock Password Generator]). The game will then reboot and the [[main menu]] will return the "TIME NOT SET" [[error message]]. Proceeding will then load a screen in which the player can adjust the clock's data, including the [[Days of the week|weekday]]. Due to being based on the Japanese version, the password only takes into account the first five characters of the player's name.

While the function for manually resetting the clock is not available in the Japanese versions, the main menu error and the actual clock adjustment screen exist in all versions as they are used for when the clock data is invalid or corrupted.

=====Western Gold and Silver=====
Hold '''↓''', '''SELECT''', and '''B'''.

=====Western Crystal and Korean Gold and Silver=====
# Hold '''↓''', '''SELECT''', and '''B'''
# Release '''↓''' and '''B''', while still holding '''SELECT'''
# Hold '''←''' and '''↑''', while still holding '''SELECT'''
# Release '''SELECT'''

===Generation III===
Unlike Generation II, [[Generation III]] had no separate time periods, or even an ability to check the time in-game unless the player traveled back to [[Littleroot Town]], where they had set an analog clock at the beginning of the game. The overworld lighting does not change during different times of the day. Also, unlike Generation II, the time-based events were very few and extremely far between, with the clock mostly running to keep track of the growth of planted [[Berry|Berries]] ([[Berry glitch|although this was not completely foolproof]]). Additionally, there was no way to change the clock in this generation, not even for daylight saving time.

There were, however, some time-based functions in the games. For example, [[Shoal Cave]]'s water level would change every six hours, at 3:00 and 9:00 AM and PM (03:00, 09:00, 15:00, 21:00). Just the same, the [[time-based Evolution]]s are available.

Although a small part of the game, some events occur on a daily basis. Some NPCs give the player one Berry every day. [[Lilycove Department Store]] gives out Pokémon Loto Tickets for the [[Loto-ID|Pokémon Lottery Corner]], with the winning number changing daily. An old man who lives in [[Pacifidlog Town]] looks out for {{gdis|Mirage Island|III}}, and will, every day, generate a random number between 0 and 65535 and if this number matches the personality value of any of the Pokémon in the party, Mirage Island will appear in the game.

Time was only used in the Hoenn-based games. Time-based Evolutions cannot trigger in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. In {{g|Colosseum}}, the player receives {{p|Espeon}} and {{p|Umbreon}}, the only two Pokémon at the time that were result of time-based Evolution, at the beginning of the game. In {{Pokémon XD}}, the player's {{p|Eevee}} can evolve into Espeon or Umbreon with the [[Sun Shard]] or the [[Moon Shard]] in the Bag, respectively.

===Generation IV===
[[File:Gen IV Time change.png|frame|The overworld as it cycles through the day]]
In [[Generation IV]], the time function returned fully with many features from Generation II, including changes in the overworld lighting and in the availability of wild Pokémon at different times of day, being {{pkmn2|Nocturnal}}, {{pkmn2|Matutinal}}, or {{pkmn2|Diurnal}}. However, this time it uses the [[Nintendo DS]]'s system clock. The three time periods from Generation II return, with smoother transitions between them.

A calendar and day of the week system are also present. The game keeps track of the date of capture of every Pokémon. Some in-game events are influenced by the day of the week; for example, {{p|Drifloon}} only appear in the [[Valley Windworks]] on Fridays, and battles with {{ga|Barry}} in the [[Battle Zone]] can only be initiated on weekends.

The [[Pokédex]] also has a new function that displays where Pokémon are found in each time period. When it is first opened, the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] will also default to the current time of day.

Additionally, in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} only, the generic battle transitions change during nighttime (except for wild Pokémon in water). Cave battles are always treated as if it was nighttime, but places with cavelike encounters such as [[Sprout Tower]] or [[Ilex Forest]] properly account for the time.

=====Morning=====
Morning tints everything a pale blue color, changing from dark blue of night into bright blue of daytime. Morning lasts from 4:00 AM to 9:59 AM (04:00–9:59).

=====Day=====
Everything takes on its natural color during the day. Day lasts from 10:00 AM to 7:59 PM (10:00–19:59), with twilight lasting from around 5:00 PM (17:00) until night sets in. Twilight has its own set of eyecatches.

=====Night=====
Much like its Generation II counterpart, the world is dark, but pockmarked by the bright lights of buildings. Night lasts from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59), with lights in buildings turning off at 12:00 AM (00:00). A majority of areas in [[Sinnoh]] have slightly different music during the night, including [[Pokémon Center]]s, though this is not true in [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]].

===Generation V===
[[File:Gen V time change {{#switch: {{#time: F}}|January|May|September=spring|February|June|October=summer|March|July|November=autumn|winter}}.png|frame|The overworld as it cycles through the day during in-game {{#switch: {{#time: F}}|January|May|September=spring|February|June|October=summer|March|July|November=autumn|winter}}.]]
In {{game|Black and White|s}}, the concept of {{season}}s was introduced. These are akin to the seasons in the real world, only to allow for less restrictive gameplay, the seasons change with every month.

Time of day now varies depending on the current season. As in HeartGold and SoulSilver, day is divided in four different parts: morning, when floodlights in the cities switch off and the sun starts to rise; daytime, when everything is lightened; evening, when the floodlights switch on in the cities and everything starts to be lit with an orange hue; and then nighttime, which is characterized by a darker landscape, both in the overworld map and in battle.

In favor of seasons, Pokémon are no longer found at different times of day, meaning Pokémon that can be found in the current season can be found anytime during the season.

===Generation VI===
Time continued to be based on the system clock in Generation VI, now using the 3DS's clock to track time. Seasons from Generation V did not carry over, however. Therefore, the intervals for when morning, day, evening, and night occur are now constant. Unlike in previous generations, where the time period transitions lasted a few seconds, they may last up to 15 minutes, allowing less abrupt changes in the overworld lighting. If the 3DS clock is changed, time-based events will not occur for 24 hours and any Berries will reset.

In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the game always starts at daytime, the 3DS's clock being taken into account only after the player interacts with the analog clock in their room.

===Generation VII===
====Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon====
In {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun}} and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun}}, the clock functions conventionally, matching the [[Nintendo 3DS]]'s clock; however, in {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Moon}} and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Moon}}, the game runs its time offset by 12 hours from the 3DS's clock. In Pokémon Moon and Ultra Moon, this difference mainly affects the day-night cycle. Events that refresh daily still refresh when the 3DS's clock hits midnight (or noon in-game in Moon and Ultra Moon) and events that rely on the day of the week correlate to the day according to the 3DS's clock.

Specific scenes in the game, such as in the beginning of the game, will be set at specific times, with the clock effectively frozen until that part of the story is completed. Regardless of the games, the player is eventually able to travel to a world that has the opposite time by using the [[Ultra Wormhole]] at the [[Altar of the Sunne]]/[[Altar of the Moone|Moone]].

Different Pokémon can once again be found depending on the time of day. In the [[Rotom Pokédex]], these species are denoted with a different icon when viewed in the Habitat menu. Certain areas in [[Alola]] have slightly different background music depending on the time of day, such as [[Hau'oli City]].

=====Times of day=====
Note that these times refer to the time on the 3DS's clock. That is, within Pokémon Moon and Ultra Moon, "day" still starts at 6 AM (06:00) as far as the game world is concerned. This may be seen at any place that acknowledges the time, such as the [[Pokémon Center Café]].

====Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!====
Despite [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] having a few time-based features, they are set in perpetual daytime, much like the original {{game|Yellow}}.

===Generation VIII===
====Pokémon Sword and Shield====
In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, time is set to specific times of day during the main story as a narrative device. This affects all areas of [[Galar]] outside of the [[Wild Area]], and even influences Evolution. However, daily events (such as the [[Battle Café]] matches) still reset at midnight according to the system time. After the player becomes {{pkmn|Champion}}, time is no longer pre-set outside the Wild Area, and functions solely based on the system time, even during post-game story scenes like the arc involving [[Sordward]] and [[Shielbert]].

====Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl====
In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, the time function remains the same as [[Generation IV]]'s, including changes in the overworld lighting and in the availability of wild Pokémon at different times of day, being {{pkmn2|Nocturnal}}, {{pkmn2|Matutinal}}, or {{pkmn2|Diurnal}}. However, this time it uses the [[Nintendo Switch]]'s system clock.

A calendar and day of the week system are also present. The game keeps track of the date of capture of every Pokémon. Some in-game events are influenced by the day of the week; for example, {{p|Drifloon}} only appear in the [[Valley Windworks]] on Fridays, and battles with {{ga|Barry}} in the [[Battle Zone]] can only be initiated on weekends.

======Morning======
Everything is bright and sunny, with the lighting facing from the west. Morning times are from 4:00 AM to 9:59 AM (04:00–9:59).

======Day======
Everything takes on its natural color during the day. Day lasts from 10:00 AM to 7:59 PM (10:00–19:59), with twilight lasting from around 5:00 PM (17:00) until night sets in. Twilight has its own set of eyecatches.

======Night======
Much like its Generation IV counterpart, the world is dark, but pockmarked by the bright lights of buildings. Night lasts from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59), with lights in buildings turning off at 12:00 AM (00:00). A majority of areas in [[Sinnoh]] have slightly different music during the night, including [[Pokémon Center]]s.

====Pokémon Legends: Arceus====
{{g|Legends: Arceus}} has its own time system<ref>[https://gist.github.com/Lusamine/89ca91f672aa782f073157dbed495af2 LA Day & Night Cycle.md by Lusamine]</ref>, independent from the system clock. A minute in real life corresponds to an hour in-game. The player can instantly change the current time of day, and even skip to the next day, by resting at {{DL|Jubilife Village|your quarters|their quarters}} or the bed present at each [[Base camp]].

=====Times of day=====
{| class="roundtable c" style="margin: auto; background: #{{Hisui color}}; border: 3px solid #{{Hisui color dark}};"
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Morning
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Day
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Evening
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Night
|-
| 5:00 AM–11:59 AM<br>(05:00–11:59)<br>7 real minutes

| 9:00 PM–4:59 AM<br>(21:00–04:59)<br>8 real minutes
|}

Note that Morning and Day are only distinct internally, (as there are no Pokémon that spawn exclusively in "Morning but not Day", nor in "Day but not Morning"), and any [[Research task (Legends: Arceus)|Research Task]]s that require "daylight" can be completed in both Morning and Day. (Between 5:00 AM and 6:59 PM)

{{main|Time-based_Evolution#Teddiursa_line|Time-based Evolution → Teddiursa line}}
Additionally, there are 8 phases of the moon, which naturally advances to the next phase every two days at 5:00 AM, and can also be advanced manually by resting twice to any time that would pass 5:00 AM. {{p|Ursaring}} can only evolve into {{p|Ursaluna}} when using a [[Peat Block]] during a Full Moon.

=====Changing time=====
The time can be changed by going to a [[Base camp]] or the player's bed in [[Jubilife Village]] and choosing to rest until a certain time. Selecting "Just a little while" will heal the player's [[party]] members, but not advance the current time. Selecting the remaining options will advance the day/night cycle to the following times:

{| class="roundtable c" style="margin: auto; background: #{{Hisui color}}; border: 3px solid #{{Hisui color dark}};"
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until morning
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until midday
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until evening
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until nightfall
|-
| 7:00 AM<br>(07:00)
| 12:00 AM<br>(12:00)
| 7:00 PM<br>(19:00)
| 9:00 PM<br>(21:00)
|}

Resting in this manner will however reset the current state in the area and despawn any time-specific Pokémon encounters, as well as resetting timings for [[space-time distortion]]s and other similar timed events.

===Generation IX===
====Pokémon Scarlet and Violet====
{{g|Scarlet and Violet}} have their own time system, which with 1 real-life day equal to 20 in-game days. This time can be influenced by the player by altering the system clock prior to opening the game,<ref>[https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657628501917442052 Scarlet and Violet Day/Night Cycle Mechanics by Atrius97, via Twitter]</ref> with the time value being determined when the game is first opened.<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657611236694196225</ref> However, the day/night cycle does not begin until the player loads into the overworld, so any changes to the system clock while the game is loading or at the in-game start menu have no effect, the game will load the time from when the game was initially opened. The day/night cycle lasts 72 real minutes in total, repeating 20 times over the course of 24 hours. Different Pokémon can spawn depending on the time of the day; unlike previous games, however, the brief period of evening has its own separate spawns defined as well.

Opening the map by pressing Y will show an icon in the top-center of the map<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657609709019623426</ref> indicating the time of day. This icon will dynamically update to show the current time period, however Morning does not have its own unique icon, instead sharing an icon with Day.<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657628499975479296</ref> While the player is in [[Area Zero]], this is the only way to tell the time of day without having to come out.

There are two exceptions to the day/night cycle, the first being that during the tutorial, the time will be locked to Day until visiting [[Naranja Academy]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]{{sup/9|V}} for the first time and obtaining {{p|Koraidon}}{{sup/9|S}}/{{p|Miraidon}}{{sup/9|V}}.

[[Area Zero]] is also unaffected by the day/night cycle (with {{p|Flutter Mane}} being the only exception due to a quirk<ref>[https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1647304950358106114 Flutter Mane Spawning Mechanics Quirk]</ref>), with time-exclusive species and forms spawning regardless of the current time in the rest of Paldea.

The current time is shared between all players in the same instance while playing in co-op via [[Union Circle]], determined by the player hosting the group.

Due to their physical locations being relatively distant from Paldea, both [[Kitakami]] and the [[Terarium]] experience different {{wp|timezone}}s, with Kitakami being 18 (real life) minutes ahead of Paldea, and the Terarium being 18 (real life) minutes behind Paldea. These time differences are roughly the same as those of their [[Pokémon world in relation to the real world|real world inspirations]].

If defeated, static encounters such as the [[treasures of ruin]], and fixed [[symbol encounter]]s such as wild Tera Pokémon will reappear if the player reboots their game after one hour has passed in the [[Nintendo Switch|Switch]]'s internal clock following their defeat. This is independent from Scarlet and Violet's in-game time system.

====Pokémon Legends: Z-A====
:''See also: [[Battle_zone_(Lumiose_City)|Battle Zone]]''
[[File:Legends Z-A Day-Night Key Art.png|thumb|right|250px|[[Lumiose City]] during the day and night in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}]]
The time of day plays a particular function in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}'s appearance of [[Lumiose City]].The day lasts for 16 real time minutes, while the night lasts 8 minutes.
During the night, areas of the city are sectioned off similarly to [[Wild_zone|Wild zones]] and become [[Battle_zone_(Lumiose_City)|"Battle zones"]] , where [[Pokémon Trainer]]s become the main focus instead. The {{player}} is able to partake in an event known as the [[Z-A Royale]] when battle zones are up.
Additionally, the availability of some wild Pokémon changes between night and day. The player can switch between night and day by sitting on a bench, when doing so, wild Pokémon spawns are rerolled, excluding [[Shiny_Pokémon|Shiny Pokémon]].
If a Shiny Pokémon happens to be a night or day only spawn, it will spawn once more when the player changes back to night or day, respectively, the natural day and night cycle always rerolls all Pokémon, including shiny spawns.

===Time-specific events===
:''This section relates only to events that occur at specific times but not necessarily on a particular day. For events that occur only on specific days of the week (but not at a particular time), see [[days of the week]].''

====Time-based Evolutions====
{{main|Time-based Evolution}}
Several {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} [[Evolution|evolve]] during a certain time of day.

====Generation II====
* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}} in [[Mt. Moon Square]] will trigger between [[Days of the week|Monday]] night at 8:00 PM and [[Days of the week#Tuesday|Tuesday]] morning at 4:00 AM (20:00–4:00).
* {{Daisy}} will massage the player's Pokémon between 3:00 and 4:00 PM (15:00–16:00).
* {{tc|Police Officer|Officers}} will only challenge the player at night from 6:00 PM to 3:59 AM (18:00–03:59).
* The wild battle theme played in [[Johto]] and some locations in [[Kanto]] is slightly different at night from 6:00 PM to 3:59 AM (18:00–03:59).

======Effects of changing the clock======
If the clock is [[#Resetting the clock|reset]], every time-based event moves forward and can be repeated right away. Time-based events with a specific window need the clock to be set within that frame. In these games, the time-based events are:

* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}}.
* The [[Haircut brothers]].
* The {{p|Lapras}} {{DL|Union Cave|Generations II and IV|special encounter}}.
* The {{DL|Radio|Lucky Number Show}}.
* Picking [[Apricorn]]s and {{Berries}} from trees.
* Receiving Apricorn Balls from [[Kurt]].
* The [[S.S. Aqua]] voyage.
* The rematch against {{ga|Silver}} at [[Indigo Plateau]].
* The [[Trainer House]] battle.

====Generation III====
=====Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald=====
* The tides in [[Shoal Cave]] depend on the time of day. It is high tide from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM (09:00–15:00) and 9:00 PM to 3:00 AM (21:00–03:00), and low tide from 3:00 PM to 9:00 PM (15:00–21:00) and 3:00 AM to 9:00 AM (03:00–09:00).
There is no side-effect to changing the clock in these games.

====Generation IV====
=====Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum=====
{{incomplete|section|Many effects of changing the clock are missing}}
* {{tc|Jogger}}s will only challenge the player in the morning from 4:00 to 9:59 AM (04:00–09:59).
* {{tc|Police Officer|Policemen}} will only challenge the player at night from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59).
* The player can catch {{p|Rotom}} once from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59) in the [[Old Chateau]].
* The [[Pal Park]] transfer can occur only once every 24 hours.
* The music tracks for [[Twinleaf Town]], [[Sandgem Town]], [[Jubilife City]], [[Oreburgh City]], [[Floaroma Town]], [[Eterna City]]/[[Celestic Town]], [[Hearthome City]], [[Solaceon Town]]/[[Pastoria City]], [[Veilstone City]], [[Snowpoint City]], [[Sunyshore City]], the [[Pokémon League (Sinnoh)|Pokémon League]], the [[Fight Area]], [[Valor Lakefront]], the [[Pokémon Center]]s, and Routes 201, 203, 205, 206, 216, 225, and 228 will change depending on if it's day or night.

======Effects of changing the clock======
* [[Pal Park]]: the player must wait 24 hours from when the game is opened after changing the clock to be able to {{DL|Pal Park|Migration|migrate}}. If the clock was changed, the game needs to sync with the new time so that the penalization period starts running. This can be accomplished by booting the game and saving. Otherwise, the penalization period cannot begin nor end. If the game was booted in a different system, the penalization period can be prevented simply by not saving and, if available, returning the game to the system it's synchronized with.

=====Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver=====
* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}} in [[Mt. Moon Square]] will trigger between [[days of the week|Monday]] [[Time|night]] at 8:00 PM and [[days of the week#Tuesday|Tuesday]] [[Time|morning]] at 4:00 AM (20:00–4:00).
* {{Daisy}} will massage the player's Pokémon between 3:00 PM and 4:00 PM (15:00–16:00).
* {{tc|Police Officer|Policemen}} will only challenge the player at night from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59).

======Effects of changing the clock======
If the game detects a different clock, either by changing the date or time of the system or by booting the game in a different system and saving, time-based events will be affected differently.

The following time-based events can be done by directly changing the clock to the time window in which they're active:

* The [[Bug-Catching Contest]].
* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}}.
* Commemorative {{DL|Photography|Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver|pictures}}.
* Items available in the {{DL|Pokéathlon Dome|Athlete Shop}} at the Pokéathlon Dome.
* The {{p|Lapras}} {{DL|Union Cave|Generations II and IV|special encounter}} in Union Cave.
* Pokégear [[radio|radio shows]].
* Obtaining the {{DL|Fighting Dojo/Generation IV|Phone listing|Gym Leaders' phone numbers}}.
* {{DL|Fighting Dojo/Generation IV|Rematch schedule|Rematch calls}} with the Gym Leaders.
* The rematch against {{ga|Silver}} at [[Indigo Plateau]].
* The [[S.S. Aqua]] voyage (including receiving an item from the captain).
* The {{DL|Goldenrod Tunnel|shops}} in the Goldenrod Tunnel.
* The [[Week Siblings]] appearing.

The following daily events can be done by changing the clock to 23:59 and letting the clock roll over to the next day in-game:

* {{DL|Radio|Buena's Password}} in Goldenrod City. The password will not be available right after the clock rolls over. Saving the game on the new day, then changing the clock for a second time to when (or waiting until) her show is on air (2:00, 5:00, 8:00, 11:00, 14:00, 17:00, 20:00, and 23:00) is necessary.
* {{Daisy}}'s massage in [[Pallet Town]]. The massage will not be available right after the clock rolls over. Saving the game after midnight, then changing the clock for a second time to when (or waiting until) the massage can be requested (15:00–16:00) is necessary.
* [[Mass outbreak]]s.
* Hearing a new [[Trend|trendy phrase]] from the old man on {{rt|16|Kanto}}.
* Picking [[Apricorn]]s from trees.
* The [[Loto-ID|Pokémon Lottery Corner]] in Goldenrod City.
* Receiving Apricorn Balls from [[Kurt]].
* Receiving [[Sticker|Seal]]s in Olivine City.
* The [[Trainer House]] battle in Viridian City.
* Receiving a [[Ribbon]] from one of the [[Week Siblings]].

The following time-based events are impacted negatively if the game detects any time change:

* {{DL|Berry|Generation IV|Berry growth}}: instead of calculating how long it has been since the game was last saved and matching the Berry's timer to the system's clock, the Berry's timer resumes right from when the game was last saved.
* {{safari|Johto}} {{DL|Johto Safari Zone|area upgrades}}: the invisible day counter will freeze for 24 hours, period after which it will resume counting days from where it left off when the game was last saved. Just like with [[Pal Park]] in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, if the clock was changed, the game needs to sync with the new time so that the penalization period starts running. This can be accomplished by booting the game and saving. Otherwise, the penalization period cannot begin nor end. If the game was booted in a different system, the penalization period can be prevented simply by not saving and, if available, returning the game to the system it's synchronized with.

====Generation V====
* Trainers may be battled every day in the [[Big Stadium and Small Court]]. However, they cannot be battled during sports events that occur during certain times and days of the week.
* The [[Royal Unova]] can be boarded only during the evening.
* The player can purchase [[Casteliacone]]s once per day. In Black and White, this is only possible on Tuesdays and outside of winter.
* A businessman in [[Lacunosa Town]] gives out a {{b|Pecha}}, {{b|Leppa}}, {{b|Lum}}, or {{b|Bluk}} Berry on Sundays{{sup/5|BW}}/every day{{sup/5|B2W2}} during nighttime.
* The Black Empoleon biker gang will "take over" the [[Tubeline Bridge]] on Friday evenings and nights, and their leader can be challenged.{{sup/5|BW}}
* [[Shigeki Morimoto|Morimoto]] and [[Kōji Nishino|Nishino]]{{sup/5|B2W2}} can be battled in [[Castelia City]] once per day. In Black and White, the player must have entered the [[Hall of Fame]] for this to be possible.
* A girl on {{rt|8|Unova}} will give out one of the four {{cat|weather duration-extending items}} per day. The rock changes depending on the time of day:

====Generation VI====
{{incomplete|section|More info on ORAS}}
* If it currently morning or evening, the chances of hooking a Pokémon while [[fishing]] are increased by a flat 20%.<ref>[https://sinjohruins.com/Gen+6/Fishing Fishing - Sinjoh Ruins]</ref>
=====Pokémon X and Y=====
* At the Juice Shoppe in [[Lumiose City]]:
** Pre-made Berry Juice is sold to the player once a day.

==In the spin-off games==
===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series===
In the {{g|Mystery Dungeon series}} a day has passed every time the player comes back from an adventure or plays [[Sentry Duty]]. During the story, one day can incorporate clearing several dungeons in a row with save points in between.

Clearing [[Blizzard Island]] gives the player the choice to go through [[Crevice Cave]] or not, if the player chooses not to a day has passed. When going to [[Hidden Land]], a day never passes unless the player leaves back to [[Treasure Town]] or completes [[Temporal Tower]].

===Pokémon Conquest===
In {{g|Conquest}}, The shortest unit of time measured in Pokémon Conquest is a month (not real time). Every story starts on January, Year 1. In two stories (''The Rebel'' and ''Tragic Determination''), the goal is to defeat [[Nobunaga]] before January, Year 4 (before 3 years had passed).

Opposing armies will only attack at the very start of the month, except for one time in ''The Legend of Ransei'' where Shingen or Kenshin attack after they decline a battle with the {{player}}.

===Pokémon GO===
In {{g|GO}}, day and night changes depend on sunset and sunrise in the player's location. The difference between day and night is the appearance, the music, and the Evolution of some Pokémon. Additionally, {{OBP|Raid Battle|GO}}s do not spawn during a specific range of hours at night. Sunny [[weather]] during the day becomes Clear weather during the night; the effects of the two, however, are identical.

If a [[Mystery Box]] is acquired and opened, three days must pass before it can be opened again.

For the time-based Evolutions, see [[Time-based Evolution#Pokémon GO|Time-based Evolution → Pokémon GO]].

===Pokémon Sleep===
In {{g|Sleep}}, the day is divided into three parts for three [[Cooking (Sleep)|meals]]: morning (4:00 AM to 11:59 AM) for breakfast, day (12:00 PM to 5:59 PM) for lunch, and night (6:00 PM to 3:59 AM) for dinner. These times are all set based on the player's current time zone. The daily events (such as sleeping time, shop events, etc) last from 4:00 AM to 3:59 AM the next day. The week starts on Monday.

Prior to version 1.5.0 (released April 18, 2024), night lasted till 5:59 AM instead of 3:59 AM and morning began from 6:00 AM instead of 4:00 AM.

===Pokémon Party mini===
{{missing image|section|Add clock image}}
In [[Pokémon Party mini]], the Celebi's Clock is a clock with date, alarm and stopwatch functions.

===Eevee × Tamagotchi===
{{missing image|section|Add clock image}}
In [[Eevee × Tamagotchi]], there is a digital clock function. The player is required to set up the time before starting the game.

'''Time''' is a mechanic in the [[Pokémon games]]. It was introduced in [[Generation II]] and has been a major component of almost all games released afterward. Time affects both the [[Evolution]] of several {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and whether certain Pokémon can be found in the [[wild Pokémon|wild]]. Some events may take place at a specific time of day, or on a particular [[days of the week|day of the week]]. {{g|Legends: Arceus}} and {{g|Scarlet and Violet}} use their own in-game time system and don't depend on the player or console's real time.

{{Berries}} are governed by the time function, maturing after a certain amount of time has passed. Much like [[weather]], the games' time function has been revised and expanded in each subsequent generation after its introduction.

==In the core series games==
===Generation II===
[[File:MorningGS.png|thumb|right|250px|{{rt|29|Johto}} in the morning]]
In [[Generation II]], the changing time of day is one of the games' distinctive features. Wild encounters vary based on the time of day; several Pokémon were designed with this in mind, such as {{p|Hoothoot}} and {{p|Noctowl}}.

At the [[new game|beginning]] of all three games, the player is required to set the clock, even before selecting a name. The default time is 10:00 AM (10:00). When the player speaks to their {{jo|Mom}} at the start of the game, the player must specify whether it is currently {{wp|daylight saving time}} or not; they can adjust the clock for entering or exiting daylight savings time.

The clock can be reset through a code in all three games, although it is more difficult to do so in {{game|Crystal}}. For the [[Virtual Console]] versions, adjusting the time on the [[Nintendo 3DS]] clock does not affect the in-game time.

=====Morning=====
Morning, referred to as <sc>Morn</sc> in-game, is the time from 4:00 AM to 9:59 AM (04:00–09:59). Many [[Pokémon Trainer]]s are still asleep and there are many {{type|Bug}} Pokémon in the wild. However, the wild Pokémon that appear in the Morning are mostly the same as Day, with only slight differences. During the Morning, the rising sun tints the entire landscape with a yellowish hue.
[[File:DayGS.png|thumb|right|200px|Daytime near the water.]]

=====Day=====
Day is the time from 10:00 AM to 5:59 PM (10:00–17:59). The landscape is not tinted at all during this time, making it seem closer to the [[Generation I]] games (which do not have a time system). Day is the busiest time, as most people are up and about at this time and a wide variety of Pokémon appear.

=====Night=====
Night, referred to as <sc>Nite</sc> in-game, is the time from 6:00 PM to 3:59 AM (18:00–03:59). Wild Pokémon battles taking place at night use a slightly different music track. The world is colored a bluish-purple, and buildings have their lights on. If interacted with, the [[Pokémon Center lady]] will note that the player is still active despite the time, before healing the party.

[[File:NightGS.png|thumb|200px|right|Nighttime. Note the building lights illuminating brightly.]]

====Days of the week====
{{main|Days of the week}}
When the [[Pokégear]] is first received, the player's mother will ask them to set the day of the week as well. This affects several things, such as the [[National Park]]'s [[Bug-Catching Contest]] and which of the [[Week Siblings]] appears, though not much else.

====Resetting the clock====
In the Western and Korean versions, a secret function for resetting the game's clock that requires a password may be accessed from the title screen. The password is generated from the player's [[Original Trainer|name]], [[Trainer ID number]], and current amount of [[Pokémon Dollar|money]] ([https://bl4cksh4rk.github.io/Pokemon-GSC-Clock-Password-Generator/ Blackshark's GSC Clock Password Generator]). The game will then reboot and the [[main menu]] will return the "TIME NOT SET" [[error message]]. Proceeding will then load a screen in which the player can adjust the clock's data, including the [[Days of the week|weekday]]. Due to being based on the Japanese version, the password only takes into account the first five characters of the player's name.

While the function for manually resetting the clock is not available in the Japanese versions, the main menu error and the actual clock adjustment screen exist in all versions as they are used for when the clock data is invalid or corrupted.

=====Western Gold and Silver=====
Hold '''↓''', '''SELECT''', and '''B'''.

=====Western Crystal and Korean Gold and Silver=====
# Hold '''↓''', '''SELECT''', and '''B'''
# Release '''↓''' and '''B''', while still holding '''SELECT'''
# Hold '''←''' and '''↑''', while still holding '''SELECT'''
# Release '''SELECT'''

===Generation III===
Unlike Generation II, [[Generation III]] had no separate time periods, or even an ability to check the time in-game unless the player traveled back to [[Littleroot Town]], where they had set an analog clock at the beginning of the game. The overworld lighting does not change during different times of the day. Also, unlike Generation II, the time-based events were very few and extremely far between, with the clock mostly running to keep track of the growth of planted [[Berry|Berries]] ([[Berry glitch|although this was not completely foolproof]]). Additionally, there was no way to change the clock in this generation, not even for daylight saving time.

There were, however, some time-based functions in the games. For example, [[Shoal Cave]]'s water level would change every six hours, at 3:00 and 9:00 AM and PM (03:00, 09:00, 15:00, 21:00). Just the same, the [[time-based Evolution]]s are available.

Although a small part of the game, some events occur on a daily basis. Some NPCs give the player one Berry every day. [[Lilycove Department Store]] gives out Pokémon Loto Tickets for the [[Loto-ID|Pokémon Lottery Corner]], with the winning number changing daily. An old man who lives in [[Pacifidlog Town]] looks out for {{gdis|Mirage Island|III}}, and will, every day, generate a random number between 0 and 65535 and if this number matches the personality value of any of the Pokémon in the party, Mirage Island will appear in the game.

Time was only used in the Hoenn-based games. Time-based Evolutions cannot trigger in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. In {{g|Colosseum}}, the player receives {{p|Espeon}} and {{p|Umbreon}}, the only two Pokémon at the time that were result of time-based Evolution, at the beginning of the game. In {{Pokémon XD}}, the player's {{p|Eevee}} can evolve into Espeon or Umbreon with the [[Sun Shard]] or the [[Moon Shard]] in the Bag, respectively.

</div>
</div>

===Generation IV===
[[File:Gen IV Time change.png|frame|The overworld as it cycles through the day]]
In [[Generation IV]], the time function returned fully with many features from Generation II, including changes in the overworld lighting and in the availability of wild Pokémon at different times of day, being {{pkmn2|Nocturnal}}, {{pkmn2|Matutinal}}, or {{pkmn2|Diurnal}}. However, this time it uses the [[Nintendo DS]]'s system clock. The three time periods from Generation II return, with smoother transitions between them.

A calendar and day of the week system are also present. The game keeps track of the date of capture of every Pokémon. Some in-game events are influenced by the day of the week; for example, {{p|Drifloon}} only appear in the [[Valley Windworks]] on Fridays, and battles with {{ga|Barry}} in the [[Battle Zone]] can only be initiated on weekends.

The [[Pokédex]] also has a new function that displays where Pokémon are found in each time period. When it is first opened, the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] will also default to the current time of day.

Additionally, in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} only, the generic battle transitions change during nighttime (except for wild Pokémon in water). Cave battles are always treated as if it was nighttime, but places with cavelike encounters such as [[Sprout Tower]] or [[Ilex Forest]] properly account for the time.

</div>

=====Morning=====
Morning tints everything a pale blue color, changing from dark blue of night into bright blue of daytime. Morning lasts from 4:00 AM to 9:59 AM (04:00–9:59).

=====Day=====
Everything takes on its natural color during the day. Day lasts from 10:00 AM to 7:59 PM (10:00–19:59), with twilight lasting from around 5:00 PM (17:00) until night sets in. Twilight has its own set of eyecatches.

=====Night=====
Much like its Generation II counterpart, the world is dark, but pockmarked by the bright lights of buildings. Night lasts from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59), with lights in buildings turning off at 12:00 AM (00:00). A majority of areas in [[Sinnoh]] have slightly different music during the night, including [[Pokémon Center]]s, though this is not true in [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]].

===Generation V===
[[File:Gen V time change {{#switch: {{#time: F}}|January|May|September=spring|February|June|October=summer|March|July|November=autumn|winter}}.png|frame|The overworld as it cycles through the day during in-game {{#switch: {{#time: F}}|January|May|September=spring|February|June|October=summer|March|July|November=autumn|winter}}.]]
In {{game|Black and White|s}}, the concept of {{season}}s was introduced. These are akin to the seasons in the real world, only to allow for less restrictive gameplay, the seasons change with every month.

Time of day now varies depending on the current season. As in HeartGold and SoulSilver, day is divided in four different parts: morning, when floodlights in the cities switch off and the sun starts to rise; daytime, when everything is lightened; evening, when the floodlights switch on in the cities and everything starts to be lit with an orange hue; and then nighttime, which is characterized by a darker landscape, both in the overworld map and in battle.

In favor of seasons, Pokémon are no longer found at different times of day, meaning Pokémon that can be found in the current season can be found anytime during the season.

===Generation VI===
Time continued to be based on the system clock in Generation VI, now using the 3DS's clock to track time. Seasons from Generation V did not carry over, however. Therefore, the intervals for when morning, day, evening, and night occur are now constant. Unlike in previous generations, where the time period transitions lasted a few seconds, they may last up to 15 minutes, allowing less abrupt changes in the overworld lighting. If the 3DS clock is changed, time-based events will not occur for 24 hours and any Berries will reset.

In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the game always starts at daytime, the 3DS's clock being taken into account only after the player interacts with the analog clock in their room.

===Generation VII===
====Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon====
In {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun}} and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun}}, the clock functions conventionally, matching the [[Nintendo 3DS]]'s clock; however, in {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Moon}} and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Moon}}, the game runs its time offset by 12 hours from the 3DS's clock. In Pokémon Moon and Ultra Moon, this difference mainly affects the day-night cycle. Events that refresh daily still refresh when the 3DS's clock hits midnight (or noon in-game in Moon and Ultra Moon) and events that rely on the day of the week correlate to the day according to the 3DS's clock.

Specific scenes in the game, such as in the beginning of the game, will be set at specific times, with the clock effectively frozen until that part of the story is completed. Regardless of the games, the player is eventually able to travel to a world that has the opposite time by using the [[Ultra Wormhole]] at the [[Altar of the Sunne]]/[[Altar of the Moone|Moone]].

Different Pokémon can once again be found depending on the time of day. In the [[Rotom Pokédex]], these species are denoted with a different icon when viewed in the Habitat menu. Certain areas in [[Alola]] have slightly different background music depending on the time of day, such as [[Hau'oli City]].

=====Times of day=====
Note that these times refer to the time on the 3DS's clock. That is, within Pokémon Moon and Ultra Moon, "day" still starts at 6 AM (06:00) as far as the game world is concerned. This may be seen at any place that acknowledges the time, such as the [[Pokémon Center Café]].

====Pokémon Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!====
Despite [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] having a few time-based features, they are set in perpetual daytime, much like the original {{game|Yellow}}.

===Generation VIII===
====Pokémon Sword and Shield====
In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, time is set to specific times of day during the main story as a narrative device. This affects all areas of [[Galar]] outside of the [[Wild Area]], and even influences Evolution. However, daily events (such as the [[Battle Café]] matches) still reset at midnight according to the system time. After the player becomes {{pkmn|Champion}}, time is no longer pre-set outside the Wild Area, and functions solely based on the system time, even during post-game story scenes like the arc involving [[Sordward]] and [[Shielbert]].

====Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl====
In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, the time function remains the same as [[Generation IV]]'s, including changes in the overworld lighting and in the availability of wild Pokémon at different times of day, being {{pkmn2|Nocturnal}}, {{pkmn2|Matutinal}}, or {{pkmn2|Diurnal}}. However, this time it uses the [[Nintendo Switch]]'s system clock.

A calendar and day of the week system are also present. The game keeps track of the date of capture of every Pokémon. Some in-game events are influenced by the day of the week; for example, {{p|Drifloon}} only appear in the [[Valley Windworks]] on Fridays, and battles with {{ga|Barry}} in the [[Battle Zone]] can only be initiated on weekends.

======Morning======
Everything is bright and sunny, with the lighting facing from the west. Morning times are from 4:00 AM to 9:59 AM (04:00–9:59).

======Day======
Everything takes on its natural color during the day. Day lasts from 10:00 AM to 7:59 PM (10:00–19:59), with twilight lasting from around 5:00 PM (17:00) until night sets in. Twilight has its own set of eyecatches.

======Night======
Much like its Generation IV counterpart, the world is dark, but pockmarked by the bright lights of buildings. Night lasts from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59), with lights in buildings turning off at 12:00 AM (00:00). A majority of areas in [[Sinnoh]] have slightly different music during the night, including [[Pokémon Center]]s.

====Pokémon Legends: Arceus====
{{g|Legends: Arceus}} has its own time system<ref>[https://gist.github.com/Lusamine/89ca91f672aa782f073157dbed495af2 LA Day & Night Cycle.md by Lusamine]</ref>, independent from the system clock. A minute in real life corresponds to an hour in-game. The player can instantly change the current time of day, and even skip to the next day, by resting at {{DL|Jubilife Village|your quarters|their quarters}} or the bed present at each [[Base camp]].

|}

Note that Morning and Day are only distinct internally, (as there are no Pokémon that spawn exclusively in "Morning but not Day", nor in "Day but not Morning"), and any [[Research task (Legends: Arceus)|Research Task]]s that require "daylight" can be completed in both Morning and Day. (Between 5:00 AM and 6:59 PM)

{{main|Time-based_Evolution#Teddiursa_line|Time-based Evolution → Teddiursa line}}
Additionally, there are 8 phases of the moon, which naturally advances to the next phase every two days at 5:00 AM, and can also be advanced manually by resting twice to any time that would pass 5:00 AM. {{p|Ursaring}} can only evolve into {{p|Ursaluna}} when using a [[Peat Block]] during a Full Moon.

=====Changing time=====
The time can be changed by going to a [[Base camp]] or the player's bed in [[Jubilife Village]] and choosing to rest until a certain time. Selecting "Just a little while" will heal the player's [[party]] members, but not advance the current time. Selecting the remaining options will advance the day/night cycle to the following times:

{| class="roundtable c" style="margin: auto; background: #{{Hisui color}}; border: 3px solid #{{Hisui color dark}};"
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until morning
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until midday
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until evening
! style="background: #{{Hisui color light}};" | Until nightfall
|-

| 12:00 AM<br>(12:00)
| 7:00 PM<br>(19:00)
| 9:00 PM<br>(21:00)
|}

Resting in this manner will however reset the current state in the area and despawn any time-specific Pokémon encounters, as well as resetting timings for [[space-time distortion]]s and other similar timed events.

===Generation IX===
====Pokémon Scarlet and Violet====
{{g|Scarlet and Violet}} have their own time system, which with 1 real-life day equal to 20 in-game days. This time can be influenced by the player by altering the system clock prior to opening the game,<ref>[https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657628501917442052 Scarlet and Violet Day/Night Cycle Mechanics by Atrius97, via Twitter]</ref> with the time value being determined when the game is first opened.<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657611236694196225</ref> However, the day/night cycle does not begin until the player loads into the overworld, so any changes to the system clock while the game is loading or at the in-game start menu have no effect, the game will load the time from when the game was initially opened. The day/night cycle lasts 72 real minutes in total, repeating 20 times over the course of 24 hours. Different Pokémon can spawn depending on the time of the day; unlike previous games, however, the brief period of evening has its own separate spawns defined as well.

Opening the map by pressing Y will show an icon in the top-center of the map<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657609709019623426</ref> indicating the time of day. This icon will dynamically update to show the current time period, however Morning does not have its own unique icon, instead sharing an icon with Day.<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1657628499975479296</ref> While the player is in [[Area Zero]], this is the only way to tell the time of day without having to come out.

There are two exceptions to the day/night cycle, the first being that during the tutorial, the time will be locked to Day until visiting [[Naranja Academy]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]{{sup/9|V}} for the first time and obtaining {{p|Koraidon}}{{sup/9|S}}/{{p|Miraidon}}{{sup/9|V}}.

[[Area Zero]] is also unaffected by the day/night cycle (with {{p|Flutter Mane}} being the only exception due to a quirk<ref>[https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1647304950358106114 Flutter Mane Spawning Mechanics Quirk]</ref>), with time-exclusive species and forms spawning regardless of the current time in the rest of Paldea.

The current time is shared between all players in the same instance while playing in co-op via [[Union Circle]], determined by the player hosting the group.

Due to their physical locations being relatively distant from Paldea, both [[Kitakami]] and the [[Terarium]] experience different {{wp|timezone}}s, with Kitakami being 18 (real life) minutes ahead of Paldea, and the Terarium being 18 (real life) minutes behind Paldea. These time differences are roughly the same as those of their [[Pokémon world in relation to the real world|real world inspirations]].

If defeated, static encounters such as the [[treasures of ruin]], and fixed [[symbol encounter]]s such as wild Tera Pokémon will reappear if the player reboots their game after one hour has passed in the [[Nintendo Switch|Switch]]'s internal clock following their defeat. This is independent from Scarlet and Violet's in-game time system.

====Pokémon Legends: Z-A====
:''See also: [[Battle_zone_(Lumiose_City)|Battle Zone]]''
[[File:Legends Z-A Day-Night Key Art.png|thumb|right|250px|[[Lumiose City]] during the day and night in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}]]
The time of day plays a particular function in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}'s appearance of [[Lumiose City]]. During the night, areas of the city are sectioned off similarly to [[Wild_zone|Wild zones]] and become [[Battle_zone_(Lumiose_City)|"Battle zones"]] , where [[Pokémon Trainer]]s become the main focus instead. The {{player}} is able to partake in an event known as the [[Z-A Royale]] when battle zones are up.

===Time-specific events===
:''This section relates only to events that occur at specific times but not necessarily on a particular day. For events that occur only on specific days of the week (but not at a particular time), see [[days of the week]].''

====Time-based Evolutions====
{{main|Time-based Evolution}}
Several {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} [[Evolution|evolve]] during a certain time of day.

====Generation II====
* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}} in [[Mt. Moon Square]] will trigger between [[Days of the week|Monday]] night at 8:00 PM and [[Days of the week#Tuesday|Tuesday]] morning at 4:00 AM (20:00–4:00).
* {{Daisy}} will massage the player's Pokémon between 3:00 and 4:00 PM (15:00–16:00).
* {{tc|Police Officer|Officers}} will only challenge the player at night from 6:00 PM to 3:59 AM (18:00–03:59).
* The wild battle theme played in [[Johto]] and some locations in [[Kanto]] is slightly different at night from 6:00 PM to 3:59 AM (18:00–03:59).

======Effects of changing the clock======
If the clock is [[#Resetting the clock|reset]], every time-based event moves forward and can be repeated right away. Time-based events with a specific window need the clock to be set within that frame. In these games, the time-based events are:

* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}}.
* The [[Haircut brothers]].
* The {{p|Lapras}} {{DL|Union Cave|Generations II and IV|special encounter}}.
* The {{DL|Radio|Lucky Number Show}}.
* Picking [[Apricorn]]s and {{Berries}} from trees.
* Receiving Apricorn Balls from [[Kurt]].
* The [[S.S. Aqua]] voyage.
* The rematch against {{ga|Silver}} at [[Indigo Plateau]].
* The [[Trainer House]] battle.

====Generation III====
=====Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald=====
* The tides in [[Shoal Cave]] depend on the time of day. It is high tide from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM (09:00–15:00) and 9:00 PM to 3:00 AM (21:00–03:00), and low tide from 3:00 PM to 9:00 PM (15:00–21:00) and 3:00 AM to 9:00 AM (03:00–09:00).
There is no side-effect to changing the clock in these games.

====Generation IV====
=====Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum=====
{{incomplete|section|Many effects of changing the clock are missing}}
* {{tc|Jogger}}s will only challenge the player in the morning from 4:00 to 9:59 AM (04:00–09:59).
* {{tc|Police Officer|Policemen}} will only challenge the player at night from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59).
* The player can catch {{p|Rotom}} once from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59) in the [[Old Chateau]].
* The [[Pal Park]] transfer can occur only once every 24 hours.
* The music tracks for [[Twinleaf Town]], [[Sandgem Town]], [[Jubilife City]], [[Oreburgh City]], [[Floaroma Town]], [[Eterna City]]/[[Celestic Town]], [[Hearthome City]], [[Solaceon Town]]/[[Pastoria City]], [[Veilstone City]], [[Snowpoint City]], [[Sunyshore City]], the [[Pokémon League (Sinnoh)|Pokémon League]], the [[Fight Area]], [[Valor Lakefront]], the [[Pokémon Center]]s, and Routes 201, 203, 205, 206, 216, 225, and 228 will change depending on if it's day or night.

======Effects of changing the clock======
* [[Pal Park]]: the player must wait 24 hours from when the game is opened after changing the clock to be able to {{DL|Pal Park|Migration|migrate}}. If the clock was changed, the game needs to sync with the new time so that the penalization period starts running. This can be accomplished by booting the game and saving. Otherwise, the penalization period cannot begin nor end. If the game was booted in a different system, the penalization period can be prevented simply by not saving and, if available, returning the game to the system it's synchronized with.

=====Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver=====
* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}} in [[Mt. Moon Square]] will trigger between [[days of the week|Monday]] [[Time|night]] at 8:00 PM and [[days of the week#Tuesday|Tuesday]] [[Time|morning]] at 4:00 AM (20:00–4:00).
* {{Daisy}} will massage the player's Pokémon between 3:00 PM and 4:00 PM (15:00–16:00).
* {{tc|Police Officer|Policemen}} will only challenge the player at night from 8:00 PM to 3:59 AM (20:00–03:59).

======Effects of changing the clock======
If the game detects a different clock, either by changing the date or time of the system or by booting the game in a different system and saving, time-based events will be affected differently.

The following time-based events can be done by directly changing the clock to the time window in which they're active:

* The [[Bug-Catching Contest]].
* The {{p|Clefairy}} {{DL|Mt. Moon Square|Clefairy event|event}}.
* Commemorative {{DL|Photography|Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver|pictures}}.
* Items available in the {{DL|Pokéathlon Dome|Athlete Shop}} at the Pokéathlon Dome.
* The {{p|Lapras}} {{DL|Union Cave|Generations II and IV|special encounter}} in Union Cave.
* Pokégear [[radio|radio shows]].
* Obtaining the {{DL|Fighting Dojo/Generation IV|Phone listing|Gym Leaders' phone numbers}}.
* {{DL|Fighting Dojo/Generation IV|Rematch schedule|Rematch calls}} with the Gym Leaders.
* The rematch against {{ga|Silver}} at [[Indigo Plateau]].
* The [[S.S. Aqua]] voyage (including receiving an item from the captain).
* The {{DL|Goldenrod Tunnel|shops}} in the Goldenrod Tunnel.
* The [[Week Siblings]] appearing.

The following daily events can be done by changing the clock to 23:59 and letting the clock roll over to the next day in-game:

* {{DL|Radio|Buena's Password}} in Goldenrod City. The password will not be available right after the clock rolls over. Saving the game on the new day, then changing the clock for a second time to when (or waiting until) her show is on air (2:00, 5:00, 8:00, 11:00, 14:00, 17:00, 20:00, and 23:00) is necessary.
* {{Daisy}}'s massage in [[Pallet Town]]. The massage will not be available right after the clock rolls over. Saving the game after midnight, then changing the clock for a second time to when (or waiting until) the massage can be requested (15:00–16:00) is necessary.
* [[Mass outbreak]]s.
* Hearing a new [[Trend|trendy phrase]] from the old man on {{rt|16|Kanto}}.
* Picking [[Apricorn]]s from trees.
* The [[Loto-ID|Pokémon Lottery Corner]] in Goldenrod City.
* Receiving Apricorn Balls from [[Kurt]].
* Receiving [[Sticker|Seal]]s in Olivine City.
* The [[Trainer House]] battle in Viridian City.
* Receiving a [[Ribbon]] from one of the [[Week Siblings]].

The following time-based events are impacted negatively if the game detects any time change:

* {{DL|Berry|Generation IV|Berry growth}}: instead of calculating how long it has been since the game was last saved and matching the Berry's timer to the system's clock, the Berry's timer resumes right from when the game was last saved.
* {{safari|Johto}} {{DL|Johto Safari Zone|area upgrades}}: the invisible day counter will freeze for 24 hours, period after which it will resume counting days from where it left off when the game was last saved. Just like with [[Pal Park]] in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, if the clock was changed, the game needs to sync with the new time so that the penalization period starts running. This can be accomplished by booting the game and saving. Otherwise, the penalization period cannot begin nor end. If the game was booted in a different system, the penalization period can be prevented simply by not saving and, if available, returning the game to the system it's synchronized with.

====Generation V====
* Trainers may be battled every day in the [[Big Stadium and Small Court]]. However, they cannot be battled during sports events that occur during certain times and days of the week.
* The [[Royal Unova]] can be boarded only during the evening.

* A girl on {{rt|8|Unova}} will give out one of the four {{cat|weather duration-extending items}} per day. The rock changes depending on the time of day:

==In the spin-off games==
===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series===
In the {{g|Mystery Dungeon series}} a day has passed every time the player comes back from an adventure or plays [[Sentry Duty]]. During the story, one day can incorporate clearing several dungeons in a row with save points in between.

Clearing [[Blizzard Island]] gives the player the choice to go through [[Crevice Cave]] or not, if the player chooses not to a day has passed. When going to [[Hidden Land]], a day never passes unless the player leaves back to [[Treasure Town]] or completes [[Temporal Tower]].

===Pokémon Conquest===
In {{g|Conquest}}, The shortest unit of time measured in Pokémon Conquest is a month (not real time). Every story starts on January, Year 1. In two stories (''The Rebel'' and ''Tragic Determination''), the goal is to defeat [[Nobunaga]] before January, Year 4 (before 3 years had passed).

Opposing armies will only attack at the very start of the month, except for one time in ''The Legend of Ransei'' where Shingen or Kenshin attack after they decline a battle with the {{player}}.

===Pokémon GO===
In {{g|GO}}, day and night changes depend on sunset and sunrise in the player's location. The difference between day and night is the appearance, the music, and the Evolution of some Pokémon. Additionally, {{OBP|Raid Battle|GO}}s do not spawn during a specific range of hours at night. Sunny [[weather]] during the day becomes Clear weather during the night; the effects of the two, however, are identical.

If a [[Mystery Box]] is acquired and opened, three days must pass before it can be opened again.

For the time-based Evolutions, see [[Time-based Evolution#Pokémon GO|Time-based Evolution → Pokémon GO]].

===Pokémon Sleep===
In {{g|Sleep}}, the day is divided into three parts for three [[Cooking (Sleep)|meals]]: morning (4:00 AM to 11:59 AM) for breakfast, day (12:00 PM to 5:59 PM) for lunch, and night (6:00 PM to 3:59 AM) for dinner. These times are all set based on the player's current time zone. The daily events (such as sleeping time, shop events, etc) last from 4:00 AM to 3:59 AM the next day. The week starts on Monday.

Prior to version 1.5.0 (released April 18, 2024), night lasted till 5:59 AM instead of 3:59 AM and morning began from 6:00 AM instead of 4:00 AM.

===Pokémon Party mini===
{{missing image|section|Add clock image}}
In [[Pokémon Party mini]], the Celebi's Clock is a clock with date, alarm and stopwatch functions.

===Eevee × Tamagotchi===
{{missing image|section|Add clock image}}
In [[Eevee × Tamagotchi]], there is a digital clock function. The player is required to set up the time before starting the game.

'''Hoopa''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''フーパ''' ''Hoopa'') is a dual-type {{2t|Psychic|Ghost}} [[Mythical Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation VI]].

While it is not known to [[evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, Hoopa has an alternate [[#Form data|form]], which it changes into by using the [[Prison Bottle]]. Its default form, '''Hoopa Confined''', will then become the dual-type {{2t|Psychic|Dark}} '''Hoopa Unbound'''. In Generation VI and [[Generation VII|VII]], Hoopa Unbound will revert into Hoopa Confined while in the player's [[party]] if three days have passed since changing to Hoopa Unbound. Other circumstances may also cause it to revert.

(Refer to [[#Form data|Game data→Form data]] for more details.)

Hoopa Confined was officially revealed in the February 2015 issue of [[CoroCoro]] magazine, whereas Hoopa Unbound was revealed by CoroCoro three months later.

==Biology==
[[File:M18 Promo Artwork 5.png|250px|thumb|left|Hoopa summoning multiple [[Legendary Pokémon]] through its hoop]]
Hoopa Confined is a light-purple {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a vaguely humanoid appearance. It has green eyes with yellow sclerae, a yellow ring marking on its forehead, a small, pink dot under each eye, and dark pink hair tied into a short ponytail. On either side of its head is a dark gray horn that curves slightly upward. Its body has a dark pink, V-shaped marking on the chest and a small, golden spike on each shoulder. Its arms are not attached to its body and instead float next to it; each arm has a small golden spike similar to those on its shoulders. It has mitten-like hands and dark pink rings around each wrist. In place of actual legs, it has a wispy tail. Hoopa has three gold rings: a large one around its waist and one hanging freely on each of its horns.

In the past, Hoopa's true power is said to have been sealed away in the [[Prison Bottle]] for the destruction it used to cause, reducing Hoopa to its smaller, weaker form; opening the bottle grants Hoopa its true form once again, but only for three days. In ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]'', the one who sealed {{an|Hoopa}}'s power in the Prison Bottle was a traveller named [[Ghris]]. The rings on Hoopa's body can warp space and allow it to transport items, [[human]]s, and {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} by passing them through its hoops. This power allows it to cause mischief and take anything it wants. Hoopa is connected to many strange events because of these mysterious powers. It stores all of its gathered loot in a secret spot only it knows. Hoopa is said to have the power to bend dimensions. It is heavily implied to be the one causing many of the [[Mirage spot]]s in the [[Hoenn]] [[region]]. As seen in {{g|Masters EX}}, Hoopa can even bring people and Pokémon from {{pkmn|multiverse|alternate timelines}}. Hoopa is also known to like donuts.

Hoopa's lair is rumored to be located inside an hidden desert oasis. This lair contains many objects and treasures Hoopa obtained over the years, claiming as its own. Hoopa's lair is believed to contain mountains of gold and silver treasures it stole from ancient kings and wealthy land barons. To the present day, no one has ever found Hoopa's lair due to how well hidden it is. Hoopa can be very vengeful to those who attempt to manipulate it for its unqiue power. According to one tale, it punished an organization by transporting their individual objects before moving their headquarter to the middle of the desert. This incident terrified the organization to the point of disbanding.

Hoopa Confined is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Hyperspace Hole}}.

===Forms===
[[File:Hoopa Hole ORAS.png|thumb|right|A ring [[Mirage spot]] in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}]]
Hoopa has two forms: Hoopa Confined and Hoopa Unbound.

Hoopa Unbound is a large, bipedal Pokémon with six arms. It is mostly light blue with purple hair. The ponytail on its head is larger and bushier and held in place by two golden rings. Its hair now covers its chin, where it forms a pointed beard, and the back of its neck. The horns are less curved and have spiky purple hair around the bases. There are three gold rings on each horn: two around the base and one around the middle. It has yellow eyes white sclerae, a pointed, dark gray nose, a small hole inside of the ring-marking on its forehead, and prominent fangs in the back of its lower jaw. Similar to Hoopa Confined, its arms are disconnected and float next to its body. Instead of a small, gold spike the arms now have large, dark gray spikes and appear from holes along the sides of its body. Each arm has three fingers with dark gray claws, a gold ring around the wrist, and a gold ring around the base. Several tufts of purple hair surround its torso and a gold ring encircles a hole in the center of its chest. Another large gold ring encircles its waist and there are small tufts of hair poking out from underneath it. There is a purple stripe that widens at the knee down each leg and two gold rings around each ankle. The tips of its feet are gold and curl upward. Additionally, this form has a tail with a purple stripe along the top and an arrow-shaped tip. Hoopa Unbound is tied with {{me|Gyarados}} as the tallest {{t|Dark}} type.

Hoopa Unbound is said to be Hoopa's true form and is said to have a humongous amount of power. Hoopa is at full power in its Unbound Form, it can increase the size of its six rings to grow multiple miles in length. These massive rings are capable of transporting entire islands through its hoops. Hoopa Unbound is capable of bending dimensions on an even more powerful scale.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20160221061908/http://www.pokemonrubysapphire.com/en-us/pokemon/hoopa</ref> Hoopa Unbound can summon powerful [[Legendary Pokémon]] through its hoops. It can even use its rage to drive Legendary Pokémon berserk. However, this has the dangerous side effect of creating a space-time distortion that'll destroy the area where they were summoned as depicted in ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]''. One legend stated that it greedily teleported an entire castle from [[Kalos]] 3,000 years ago to obtain a treasure hidden within it. Hoopa can remain in its Unbound form for only three days, until its power is sealed back into the Prison Bottle, reverting itself to its Confined Form.

Hoopa Unbound is the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning and using the move {{m|Hyperspace Fury}}.

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* {{g|Super Mystery Dungeon}}: Hoopa appears as a special non-recruitable ally. He is the genie of the [[Djinn's Bottle]] found in [[Sahra Town]], and will "[[Connection Orb|connect]]" with the {{player}}'s team upon finding it for the first time. If the player has the Djinn's Bottle in their bag, they may summon him during an expedition in one of his two forms, chosen at random, and may also request he use his rings to randomly summon either a connected {{pkmn2|Legendary}} or [[Mythical Pokémon]] as an ally for that floor only, a group of wild Pokémon that can appear on that floor, or nothing at all.

===Form data===
Hoopa has two forms it can change between using the [[Prison Bottle]]: Hoopa Confined and Hoopa Unbound

Hoopa Confined is Hoopa's default form, which is {{2t|Psychic|Ghost}}-type. When exposed to a Prison Bottle, Hoopa Confined transforms into Hoopa Unbound, which is {{2t|Psychic|Dark}}-type. Hoopa Unbound was introduced in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}.

Hoopa Unbound will change back into Hoopa Confined after three days have passed since using the Prison Bottle. Hoopa also changes back to Hoopa Confined when deposited in a [[Pokémon Storage System|Box]] ([[Generation VI]]), when withdrawn from a box ([[Generation VII]]), when deposited in the [[Pokémon Day Care]] or [[Pokémon Nursery]], or when exposed to the Prison Bottle again.

{{evobox/Formes

|loc2=The {{color2|000|Prison Bottle}} changes Hoopa's form for three days
}}

The two forms have different [[base stats]], [[type]]s, [[move]]s they can learn, and [[cry|cries]]. Additionally, the move {{m|Hyperspace Fury}} is usable only by Hoopa Unbound (or a Pokémon that has transformed into Hoopa Unbound with {{m|Transform}} or {{a|Imposter}}), and will fail if Hoopa Confined (or any other Pokémon) attempts to use it. In [[Generation IX]], when Hoopa becomes Hoopa Unbound, {{m|Hyperspace Hole}} is replaced with Hyperspace Fury and vice versa.

A Hoopa appeared in its Confined Forme in the opening sequence of ''[[M19|Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel]]''.

==Trivia==
* Hoopa Unbound has the highest base {{stat|Special Attack}} stat of all {{type|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.
* Hoopa Unbound is tied with {{me|Gyarados}} for being the [[List of Pokémon by height|tallest]] {{type|Dark}} Pokémon.
** It is also the tallest and [[List of Pokémon by weight|heaviest]] [[Mythical Pokémon]].
* Hoopa is the only [[Generation VI]] Pokémon to have different [[Pokédex entry|Pokédex entries]] between {{g|X and Y}} and {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}.
* Hoopa Unbound is the only Pokémon with a {{cat|Pokémon with a base stat total of 680|base stat total of 680}} that is not a [[Legendary Pokémon]].
* In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the "mysterious rings" in [[mirage spot]]s, from which Pokémon jump out when interacted with, resemble rings used by Hoopa.

===Origin===
Hoopa Confined may have been inspired by common depictions of {{wp|jinn|djinn}}. The rings around its wrists could have been inspired by the djinn in the story of {{wp|Aladdin}}.

Hoopa Unbound could be specifically inspired by {{wp|Ifrit}}, powerful djinn or {{wp|demon}}s, which are often depicted as malicious, or {{wp|Marid}}, evil djinn or {{wp|devil}}s, which according to some stories do the exact opposite of what they are commanded to do. Its six arms may be drawn from certain {{wp|Hindu deities}}, who were often depicted with multiple arms. It may also be based on the {{wp|Gegenees}}, who were a tribe of six-armed giants who fought the {{wp|Argonauts}} in {{wp|Greek mythology}}. Its tail and horns may also derive from common depictions of demons, the circle motif thus may be inspired by {{wp|magic circle|summoning circles}}.

Hoopa's relationship with the [[Prison Bottle]] is similar to the djinn's with its lamp in traditional Arabian stories, since its full power is sealed within its respective vessel. Hoopa only being able to maintain its Unbound state for three days parallels the limit to the number of wishes a djinn can grant to its current master.

Both forms of Hoopa could also be partly based on the legend of {{wp|Nezha}}, a deity worshiped in {{wp|Taoism}} and {{wp|Chinese folk religion}} and commonly referred to as a childish trickster deity and a worldly protector. Very much like Hoopa Unbound, Nezha is depicted holding rings and is sometimes depicted with multiple arms.

Hoopa's power may have been inspired by the Single Horned Rhinoceros King, a character in the classic Chinese novel ''{{wp|Journey to the West}}'' who wielded a golden jade ring that had the power to suck in anything. The true form of the Single Horned Rhinoceros King is also revealed to be a heavenly azure bull, which may be referenced by Hoopa's bull-like horns.

====Name origin====
Hoopa may be derived from ''hoop''. It may also involve ''hoopla'' (something loud, attention-grabbing, and possibly misleading); or ''OOPArt'' ({{wp|out-of-place artifact}}).

'''Pachirisu''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''パチリス''' ''Pachirisu'') is an {{type|Electric}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IV]].

It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.

Along with {{p|Starly}} and {{p|Munchlax}}, Pachirisu is one of the three {{OBP|Partner Pokémon|Ranger}} of [[Almia]] available at the beginning of {{g|Ranger: Shadows of Almia}}.

==Biology==
Pachirisu is a small, white squirrel-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a faint blueish tint and a light blue stripe starting from its forehead and goes all the way down to the tip of the tail. A female Pachirisu's blue stripe is shorter than a male's. A large white tooth grows out of its mouth. It has deep gray eyes and a yellow circle on each cheek. Its tail is almost twice as big as its body, with three spikes at the top of the curl, which it can use to shoot charges. Though its arms and legs are very short, it can run incredibly fast, enabling it to tire pursuing Pokémon out quickly. It has a great amount of electricity flowing within its body. If it builds up enough charge, it may shock other Pokémon. It is related to the {{p|Pikachu}} line.

When it sleeps, Pachirisu likes to curl its big, fluffy tail round to the front of its body and uses it as a pillow. It also likes to chase and groom its tail. When a Pachirisu sheds its fur it shapes them into furballs, which have static charges just like its fur. It hides its favorite {{pkmn|food}}s—which mainly consist of berries—in these static puffs and stores them in tree holes. It does this to protect the food; if a human or another Pokémon tries to take the food, they will get shocked from the static. It may rub cheek pouches with another Pachirisu to share stored electricity. It is generally found in treetops in forests, as well as the outskirts of a forest and near power plants.

==Game data==

==Trivia==
[[File:PBRTaylor.png|thumb|125px|Taylor's Pachirisu costume]]
* In {{g|Battle Revolution}}, {{OBP|Taylor|Battle Revolution}} wears a Pachirisu costume.
* Pachirisu is the only Pokémon allowed in [[Amity Square]] that is not part of an [[List of Pokémon by evolutionary line|evolutionary line]].
* Pachirisu has the lowest [[List of Pokémon by base stats|base stat total]] of any Pokémon that was part of a winning team of Pokémon [[World Championships]].
* Pachirisu is the only Pokémon that can learn {{m|Hyper Fang}} to not be a {{type|Normal}}.
* Pachirisu was featured in the second episode of [[Beyond the Pokédex]] series.

===Origin===
Pachirisu may be based on a {{wp|squirrel}}. The spikes on its tail (and possibly its ears) could be a reference to {{wp|static electricity}}'s impact on hair. The electric rodent design may come from tradition of creating a [[Electric_rodents|variant]] of the Pokémon franchise's main mascot, {{p|Pikachu}}, in every generation, and like Pikachu's, the yellow cheeks of Pachirisu store electricity reflecting rodents storing food in their cheeks.

====Name origin====
Pachirisu may be a combination of パチパチ ''pachipachi'' (onomatopoeia for electric crackling) and 栗鼠 ''risu'' (squirrel).

The '''Poké Radar''' (Japanese: '''ポケモントレーサー''' ''Pokémon Tracer'', '''ポケトレ''' ''Poké Trace'' for short) is a [[Key Item]] introduced in [[Generation IV]]. It is used to seek out [[wild Pokémon]] hiding in [[tall grass]]. Its most notable use is to increase the probability of encountering [[Shiny Pokémon]].

==In the core series games==

===Effect===
{{incomplete|section|In what games is it possible to encounter roaming Pokémon using the Poké Radar?}}
In all games that it appears in, the Poké Radar is obtained after receiving the [[National Pokédex]].

It can only be used in [[tall grass]], while on foot. When used, a tune will begin to play, and up to four patches of grass will shake briefly. Upon entering one of these patches of grass, a {{pkmn|battle}} with a wild Pokémon will begin immediately, even if the player is using a [[Repel]]. However, if the player enters a patch just as the repel wears off, the battle will not start until the player attempts to move again. Depending on the game, different patches may shake in a different way, corresponding to rarer species of wild Pokémon. However, all games feature a very rare and distinct type of shaking grass that glows white twice; such a grass patch will always contain a Shiny Pokémon.

Like the [[Vs. Seeker]], the Radar's battery must be charged after use by walking around. It takes 50 steps to fully charge the Poké Radar.

If the wild Pokémon is [[fainting|knocked out]] or {{pkmn2|caught|captured}} in a [[Poké Ball]], a ''chain'' will begin; this is the principal mechanic of the Poké Radar and is crucial to increasing the probability of encountering a Shiny Pokémon. When a chain is in progress, the Poké Radar will automatically activate again at the end of the battle, causing up to four more grass patches to shake. Depending on various circumstances, one of these patches may be more likely to contain the same species of [[Pokémon]] as the one just encountered; defeating or catching such a Pokémon will continue to increase the chain by 1. If a wild Pokémon of a different species is encountered, or if a battle ends without defeating or capturing the wild Pokémon, or if a wild Pokémon is encountered outside of the Poké Radar, then the chain will break and the Poké Radar will need to recharge before being used again. A chain can also automatically break if the player uses the Bicycle or Roller Skates, if the player scrolls all shaking grass patches off-screen by moving too far away from them, a Pokémon [[Evolution|evolves]], or an {{pkmn|Egg}} hatches. Depending on the game, the chain may also still break on an encounter with the same Pokémon.

Activating the Poké Radar manually in the middle of a chain will not break the chain, and will simply generate up to four new patches of shaking grass, replacing the old ones. This works even if the player is currently standing on shaking grass. This action is known as "resetting" the Radar. It is commonly used when none of the four patches is deemed likely to continue the chain; this determination varies between games.

As the chain length increases, the probability of finding a Shiny patch also increases, up to a certain maximum. After reaching this maximum, the player no longer needs to attempt to increase the chain, and can simply recharge and reset the Radar over and over until a Shiny patch appears.

====Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum====
The Poké Radar's functions are not explained in detail when it's obtained. In {{game|Platinum}}, once the player talks to {{ga|Dawn}}/{{ga|Lucas}}'s sister about [[mass outbreak]]s, Dawn/Lucas will give a more practical demonstration on {{rt|202|Sinnoh}}.

The player can encounter certain Pokémon with the Poké Radar that would not be normally found in that location; these Pokémon are often not native to the [[Sdex|Sinnoh regional Pokédex]]. For example, the Poké Radar is the only way to encounter a {{p|Nidoran♀}} on {{rt|201|Sinnoh}}.

In these games, there are two different ways grass patches can shake (roughly, one that shakes vigorously for a short time and one that shakes gently for a slightly longer time); if a chain is started in one type of grass, grass of the other type will have an increased chance of breaking the chain, though it is possible to continue the chain with the opposite type of grass if the same species being chained is encountered. Additionally, the gently shaking grass can only contain Pokémon normally found in that location. For example, {{p|Nidoran♀}} cannot be encountered on {{rt|201|Sinnoh}} in gently shaking grass. This means that gently shaking grass will always break a chain of a species only found using the Poké Radar. Different formations of patches have no apparent bearing on the odds of the chain continuing.<ref>[https://www.smogon.com/ingame/guides/dpp_pokeradar Chaining with the PokeRadar, the Correct way - Smogon.com]</ref>

When the Poké Radar is used, the game generates four "rings" around the player, with the first ring consisting of the eight squares surrounding the player, the second ring consisting of the 16 squares surrounding the first ring, and so on for the third and fourth rings. One random square in each ring will be selected, and if that square is a patch of grass, that patch will shake. Therefore, the maximum number of patches that can shake with each use of the Poké Radar is four; if fewer than four patches shake, then one or more of the randomly selected squares were not patches of grass. If all four squares did not contain grass, then the game will display the message "''The grassy patch remained quiet...''" and any existing chain will automatically break. The patches generated after an encounter are calculated by the game on entering a patch of grass, and if no valid patches are found the chain will break on initiating the encounter. If the chain breaks this way, the "''The grassy patch remained quiet...''" message will not appear.

When selecting each shaking grass patch during a chain, a hidden variable is set to true or false for each patch. If this variable is true, the patch will be forced to contain the species of Pokémon currently being chained, guaranteeing the chain continues. This forced encounter does not reference what encounters can currently be found in the area, allowing Pokémon that are no longer available due to the [[Time|time of day]] changing or a [[Mass outbreak|swarm]] dispersing to still be encountered in that area until the chain ends. The chance this hidden variable is true depends on which distance of ring that patch spawned on. Starting from the closest ring, the chances are 28%, 48%, 68%, and 88%. Catching a Pokémon rather than defeating it will increase these odds by 10% for the patches automatically generated after the battle. If this hidden variable is false, the patch has a 50% chance to shake with the opposite type that the player most recently walked into (fast if the player last encountered a Pokémon in slow shaking grass, and vice versa). This effectively warns the player that the patch of grass is potentially going to end the chain. There is a remaining 50% chance that the hidden variable is false and the patch still uses the most recent type of grass. The only way to tell these patches apart from the ones that are guaranteed to continue a chain is to step into them. If the player steps into a patch of grass where the hidden variable is false, the game will generate an encounter based on that type of grass. If the chain contains the currently chained species, the chain will continue. This may, however, update the type of grass the player most recently went into. If the species encountered is different, the chain will break. This means that the chance the chain will break on any given patch depends on the encounter rate of the species. Even if this hidden variable is true, it is possible for the chain to break on the correct species if the patch is on the edge and fails to select any grass patches for after the encounter.

If the Poké Radar forces a Pokémon to be Shiny due to its increased odds, the game will construct a [[personality value]] that fulfils the Shininess requirement.<ref>[http://www.smogon.com/ingame/rng/pid_iv_creation The Process of PID and IV Creation of Non-Bred Pokemon - Smogon University]</ref> If the Pokémon at the front of the player's party has the ability {{a|Synchronize}} or {{a|Cute Charm}}, the shiny constructed this way will have respective chance to be the same [[nature]] or opposite [[gender]] to the lead Pokémon. It is possible, although very unlikely, for multiple Shiny patches to appear on one reset.<ref>https://youtu.be/WzgdwZaXtnA?t=1231</ref> It is always possible for non-flashing patches to contain a Shiny Pokémon as well due to the normal, completely random chance of a Pokémon being Shiny.

One of the functions of the [[Pokétch]] is to {{DL|Pokétch|Trainer Counter|display the current chain}} and the three best chains made so far.

=====Shiny probability=====
The probability for a patch to be a shiny increases with the chain length (up to a maximum of 40), according to the following formula:<ref>[http://tccphreak.shiny-clique.net/debugger/addresses.htm Chain shiny routine (assembly)]</ref><ref>[http://sfc.pokefans.net/77-shinyhunting derived math] with [http://sfc.pokemon-inside.net/pictures/advanced_lessons/shinyhunt3.jpg un-condensed formula at the end]</ref><ref>[http://www.smogon.com/forums/threads/past-gen-rng-research.61090/page-35#post-4031190 RNG Research post] by Kaphotics</ref>
<math display="block">\dfrac{\left\lceil \dfrac{65535}{8200-ChainLength \times 200} \right\rceil}{65536}</math>

The probability of a patch containing a Shiny Pokémon, as calculated by this formula, are listed in the following table. As the table shows, the odds of finding a Shiny Pokémon increase slowly at first, but eventually they increase by larger and larger amounts until reaching the maximum of an approximately <math display="inline">\tfrac{1}{200}</math> chance of finding a Shiny Pokémon for a chain of length 40 or more. These odds do not exceed the odds of the [[Masuda method]] until a chain length of 33 is reached.

When selecting each grass patch, each patch will only have a chance to be shiny if the hidden variable to guarantee the chain continues is set to true. This means that shiny patches are guaranteed to force an encounter with the chained species, and will never break the chain as a result unless they are also on the edge and fail to select any valid grass patches for after the encounter. This also means that each grass patch selected by the Poké Radar has a different chance to be shiny, based on how far away it is from the player. This effectively means that the chance a shiny patch appears is 28% times the chance the shiny check succeeds for patches on the ring one tile away from the player, 48% for tiles on the ring two tiles away, 68% times the shiny patch chance for tiles three away, and 88% times the shiny patch chance for tiles four away.<ref>https://github.com/pret/pokeplatinum/blob/main/src/pokeradar.c#L155</ref> The 10% increase to each of these percentages for patches that spawn directly after catching a Pokémon also means that there is a slight increase to spawn a shiny patch by being more likely for the hidden variable to be true. At a chain of 40 or above there is a <math display="inline">\tfrac{1}{200}</math> chance that the shiny patch check succeeds. If all four patches spawn, this gives an approximate 1.160% chance that a shiny patch will spawn, or a 1.353% chance if all four patches spawn directly after a catch with the 10% increase. The chance that each distance of patch will spawn as a shiny patch at each chain length is as follows:

====Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver====
{{main|Pokéwalker#Poké Radar|Pokéwalker}}
The Poké Radar is not normally obtainable in the main game; however, a primitive version of the Poké Radar exists on the bundled [[Pokéwalker]].

The Pokéwalker's Poké Radar costs 10 Watts to use and is the only way to encounter any wild Pokémon at all on the device. Similar to {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, these Pokémon are often difficult or impossible to otherwise find in the main game.

When used, four patches of grass will appear on-screen, one of which will randomly display a '!' symbol for a short period of time. If the player successfully selects that grass patch before the '!' disappears, then either a battle with a wild Pokémon will begin or there will be a delay and another random grass patch will display a second '!'. Again, if the player successfully selects the '!' patch before it disappears, a battle may begin or a third patch may display '!!'. Yet again, if the player successfully selects the '!!' patch, a battle may begin or a fourth patch may display '!!!'; the fourth patch will always start a battle should the player reach that point. Patches with greater numbers of exclamation points indicate rarer wild Pokémon; the mechanics and precise timing required may be considered a primitive form of chaining.

====Pokémon X and Y====
After being absent in Generation V, the Poké Radar returns in Pokémon X and Y. The basic mechanics are similar to prior iterations of the Poké Radar, with some some notable exceptions.

The Poké Radar cannot be used while using the [[Bicycle]] or [[Roller Skates]]. If the player uses either while chaining (including using the circle pad instead of the D-pad), the chain is reset, and the Poké Radar must be recharged. Additionally, it cannot be used in [[Tall_grass#Long_grass|Long grass]], and it cannot be used in the [[Friend Safari]], (despite the Friend Safari containing standard tall grass). However, it can be used in flower beds the same way as in standard tall grass.

Unlike in Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, there are no Pokémon species exclusive to the Radar. All wild Pokémon encountered will be the same as those encountered normally in the area.

=====Mechanics=====
{{incomplete|needs=Table for effective shiny rate vs chain length, table for IVs vs chain length}}
When the Poké Radar is used, the game generates shaking grass patches in 4 square rings of tiles centered around the player, starting with the innermost ring, and ending with the outermost ring<ref>https://x.com/wwwwwwzx/status/979949167224045568</ref><ref>https://pastebin.com/dRU27qVd</ref><ref>https://x.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1913263101908070662</ref><ref>https://gist.github.com/Lusamine/5408c25a59422e701de932c3941fa255</ref><ref>[https://gist.github.com/Lusamine/d30e1313b0d9391a15a0315110bfcbc1 XY Radar Generation writeup by Lusamine on Github/Sibuna_Switch on Twitter]</ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDwUBZP5llk Pokémon X and Y's Secret Birthday Bonus - A Guide to Generation 6 Poké Radar by SirToastyToes on Youtube]</ref>:
* [[File:Radar Rings Generation VI.png|alt=A use of the Poké Radar in the purple flowers on Route 5 with a weakly shaking and regular shaking patch on ring 1, violently shaking patches on ring 2 and 3, and a sparkling patch on ring 4.|thumb|A use of the Poké Radar in the purple flowers on Route 5 with a weakly shaking and regular shaking patch on ring 1, violently shaking patches on ring 2 and 3, and a sparkling patch on ring 4.]]The 1st (innermost) ring consists of 8 tiles, all directly adjacent to the player
* The 2nd ring consists of 16 tiles, in a 2 tile radius from the player
* The 3rd ring consists of 24 tiles, in a 3 tile radius from the player
* The 4th (outermost) ring consists of 32 tiles, in a radius of 4 tiles from the player

The game rolls a random number to decide if the chain will continue for each ring. If this roll passes, a "Violently Shaking" grass patch will generate. Otherwise, a "Shaking" grass patch is generated.
After all four rings attempt to generate a shaking patch, the game randomly chooses to place a "weakly-shaking" grass patch within one of the prior rings.
If the selected tile in a given ring has no grass/flowers, no shaking patch will be generated for that ring. If all four rings fail to generate a shaking patch, the chain ends immediately.
[[File:Radar Grass Types Generation VI.png|alt=Four columns showing the animations for violently shaking grass, regular shaking, weakly shaking and sparkling grass in each type of tall grass and flowers. The red flower sparkling patch uses the regular grass animation due to the 20% chance to change animation.|thumb|Violently shaking, regular shaking, weakly shaking and sparkling patches in each type of tall grass and flowers. Note the red flower sparkling patch using the regular shaking red flower animation due to the 20% chance to change animation.]]
These shaking patches of grass/flowers have different properties and chances to occur:
* "Violently Shaking" patches have an animation that shakes violently both "side-to-side" and "up-and-down", accompanied by a loud rustling sound.
** These patches are guaranteed to contain the same species as your current chained species, and uses the Shiny rate determined by the current chain length.
*** If the chain length is 0, all Violent Grass patches are forced to contain standard non-Shiny Pokémon.
*** If the game determines a Shiny should be generated, the patch will be forced to contain a Shiny Pokémon, and will visibly sparkle and glow, becoming a "Sparkling" patch.
*** If this shiny roll fails, the Pokémon will be forced not to appear as Shiny.
** If the previous encounter was [[KO]]'d, the chances for Violent Grass to appear in each ring are are 23%, 43%, 63%, and 83% for rings 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively.
** If the previous encounter was {{pkmn2|caught}}, the chances for Violent Grass to appear in each ring are 33%, 53%, 73%, and 93% for rings 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively.
*** These rates persists until the next encounter, even if the Poké Radar is used to refresh the locations of the shaking patches.

* "Shaking" patches have an animation that shakes "side-to-side", accompanied by a light rustling sound.
** These patches contain a random species using the standard encounter rates for that patch of grass/flowers.
*** If the Pokémon encountered in a "Shaking" patch is the currently chained species, the chain can continue if the Pokémon is caught or KO'd.
*** If the Pokémon encountered in a "Shaking" patch is not the species currently being chained, the chain ends.
** These patches use the standard shiny rate, unaffected by the current chain, but still affected by the [[Shiny Charm]].

* "Weakly Shaking" patches have an animation that faintly shakes "side-to-side", accompanied by a very light rustling sound.
** These patches contain no Pokémon, and result in the message "Huh? But there don't seem to be any Pokémon around...", ending the chain immediately.
** If the game attempts to generate a "Weakly shaking" patch where it would overlap with an existing "Violently Shaking" or "Shaking" patch, or on a tile with no grass/flowers, the "Weakly Shaking" patch does not generate.

* "Sparkling" patches have an identical animation as the "Violently Shaking" patches, with an additional sparkle and glow effect, and plays the same audio cue as the in-battle animation played for when a Shiny Pokémon appears.
* These patches always contain a Shiny Pokémon matching the currently chained species.
* "Sparkling" patches cannot generate at a chain of 0.
* The chance for a "Sparkling" patch to generate is determined by the current chain length, beginning at 1/8100, with the denominator reduced by 200 with each additional successful encounter, up to a maximum of 1/100 at a chain length of 40.
** If the Shiny Pokémon is caught, the chain does not end, however the chance for another "Sparkling" patch to appear resets to 1/8100.
** If the Shiny Pokémon is KO'd, (or the player uses the Poké Radar again by mistake), the chain does not end, nor does the shiny rate reset.

There are some additional mechanics that affect the appearance and behavior of these patches:
* "Violently Shaking" and "Shaking" patches have a small chance to disguise themselves as the opposite type of patch.
** "Violently Shaking" patches have a 20% chance to disguise itself as a "Shaking" patch, despite retaining all the traits of a "Violently Shaking" patch.
*** This can occur even on "Sparkling" patches.
** "Shaking" patches have a 10% chance to disguise itself as a "Violently Shaking" patch, despite retaining all the traits of a "Shaking" patch.
* Whenever the player leaves an encounter that continued the current chain, there is a 2% chance (4% on the player's [[birthday]]) that the typical background music will change to an alternate "upbeat" version.
** While this music is active, the chance for a "Sparkling" patch to appear is temporarily boosted to 1/100.
** Every time the Poké Radar is used, or a Pokémon is encountered, there is a 50% chance of the music returning to normal afterwards.
** If a "Sparkling" patch is encountered while this music is active, catching the Shiny Pokémon does not reset the chance for "Sparkling" patches to appear back to 1/8100, preserving the current chain length's shiny rate.

Additionally, at a chain lengths of 21-40, each Pokémon generated is guaranteed to have at least 1 [[IV]] set to 31. This bonus increases at chain lengths 41-60, resulting in 2 guaranteed IVs, and again at a chain length of 61+ to 3 guaranteed IVs for each subsequent Pokémon generated in the chain.

The chain will end immediately if the player:
* [[Run]]s from a battle
* Encounters a Pokémon from a non-shaking patch of grass
* Encounters a Pokémon other than the last species battled
* Enters a "Weakly Shaking" patch of grass/flowers
* Encounters a [[horde]] battle
* Uses {{m|Sweet Scent}}, [[Honey]], etc. to encounter a Pokémon
* Uses a [[field move]]
* Enters a trainer battle
* Uses the Bicycle or Roller Skates
* Leaves the current area
* Walks far enough away that all shaking patches are off-screen
* Uses the [[Dowsing Machine]]
* Uses a [[Fishing Rod]]
* Picking up an [[item]]
* Triggers a story event
* Exits or reloads the game, regardless of whether the player recently saved
* Hatches an [[Pokémon Egg|Egg]] in their party

=====Poké Radar Researcher Item Rewards=====
Once per day, the player can speak to the scientist who gave the Poké Radar, and he will assign a species of Pokémon for the player to study. If the player successfully makes a chain of that Pokémon and returns, the scientist will reward the player with an item, (or items, if the player is eligible for multiple rewards at once).

The scientist at the Pokémon Lab will give items depending on the player's highest chain length of the Pokémon he requests data of that day. The player can earn more than one item at once, but each different item can only be given once per day.

====Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl====
The Poké Radar returns in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, behaving almost identically to how it did in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, with a few minor changes.
*The Poké Radar will now always generate 4 patches or shaking grass, and multiple patches of shaking grass can now appear on the same ring.
*The first Pokémon the player encounters in a chain will always appear in any subsequent patch of shaking grass, eliminating the chance that a chain will end by encountering the wrong Pokémon.
*Patches of grass that shake vigorously (Have much bigger blades of grass shaking off) no longer indicate what Pokémon can be found in it. Instead it indicates the Pokémon inside of the patch has its [[Hidden Ability]]. The chance of a patch of grass having this is 1/128 regardless of the length of the chain. This means every use of the Radar has at least a 4/128 chance of spawning this patch of grass, with an approximately 3.089% chance of spawning at least one such patch on any use.
*Certain milestones while chaining will now guarantee Pokémon encountered will have a certain amount of perfect [[individual values]].
*Despite saying so in the item description, the [[Shiny Charm]] does not boost the likelihood of encountering a Shiny Pokémon through the Poké Radar.
*In the [[Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl#Version history|version 1.1.2 update]], a change was made so that the 10% bonus chance of a chain continuing from catching a Pokémon now only applies on patches of grass found on the fourth ring.
**This change was reverted back to its original odds in the [[Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl#Version history|version 1.1.3 update]]
*It is possible for a chain to randomly break after defeating a Pokémon.

==In the TCG==
[[File:PokéRadarLegendsAwakened133.jpg|thumb|200px|Poké Radar]]
{{main|Poké Radar (Legends Awakened 133)}}
The '''Poké Radar''' was introduced as a {{TCG|Trainer card}} in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]] during the English Diamond & Pearl Series (the Japanese DP Era). First released in the {{TCG|Cry from the Mysterious}} expansion, the Poké Radar later debuted in English in the {{TCG|Legends Awakened}} expansion, with both prints featuring an illustration by [[Kazuaki Aihara]]. This Trainer card allows the player to look at the top five cards of their deck and keep any {{TCG|Pokémon}} after showing them to their opponent; the remaining cards are then shuffled back into the deck.
{{-}}

== Merchandise ==
A toy designed after the Poké Radar has been released as part of the [[Pokémon Trainer's Kit Diamond & Pearl 2]] toy line by [[Bandai Namco|Bandai]] in December 2007.<gallery>

'''Poké Portal News''' (Japanese: '''ポケポータルニュース''' ''Poké Portal News'') is a feature in {{g|Scarlet and Violet}} that expands on the available [[Tera Raid Battle]]s in the [[Paldea]] region, making certain Pokémon more common for a limited time. It can be accessed via [[Mystery Gift]] or updated automatically by connecting to the internet in game. Certain species of {{Tera}}stal Pokémon, some of which are rare, or otherwise unobtainable except via [[transfer]], are made more common through Poké Portal News events.

Beginning in v2.0.1 of Scarlet and Violet, it became possible for event [[mass outbreak]]s to occur via Poké Portal News as well, causing certain species of Pokémon to appear more commonly in mass outbreaks, which may have unique traits, such as a higher chance of having a specific [[mark]].

Tera crystals and mass outbreaks associated with a Poké Portal News event will have a thicker, circular, glowing border compared to their typical icons on the map and minimap. Event Tera crystals will additionally be surrounded by several ring-shaped auras when approached.

==List of Mass Outbreak events==
The following lists, in reverse chronological order, different [[Mass Outbreak]] events. The event periods for the given dates typically last between 00:00 UTC on the initial date, to 23:59 UTC on the end date, unless otherwise stated. However, if an event is active in the player's savefile, it will continue to be active until the player connects online, or updates their Poké Portal News after the event period ends.

Ryanbulby: Specification on usage of Species based Candy on the Partner Pikachu and Eevee

{{samename|currency in [[Pokémon GO]]|Candy (GO)}} ''For the currency in [[Pokémon Sleep]], see [[Candy (Sleep)]].''

'''Candy''' (Japanese: '''アメ''' ''Candy'') is a type of [[item]] in the [[Pokémon games]]. They can be used on a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} outside of {{pkmn|battle}} to permanently increase certain attributes.

==Types of Candy==
===Rare Candy===
{{main|Rare Candy}}
A Rare Candy increases a Pokémon's level by one. It can also be used to [[Evolution|evolve]] level 100 Pokémon that [[Methods of Evolution#Leveling up|evolve by leveling up]].

===Exp. Candy===
{{main|Exp. Candy}}
An Exp. Candy increases a Pokémon's [[experience]] by a flat amount, which is different depending on the size.

===Game-exclusive Candy===
====Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!====
In [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]], there are three types of Candy: stat-based Candy, species-based Candy, and Rare Candy, which appear as a type of item stored in the '''Candy Jar'''. Candy can be used to increase a Pokémon's {{AV}}s, except the [[Rare Candy]], which instead boosts a Pokémon's [[level]].

=====Stat-based Candy=====
Stat-based candy can be used by any Pokémon to raise the AV of a specific stat, depending on the kind of Candy. They come in three sizes: regular, L and XL. They are more commonly found than species-specific Candy, as multiple of these Candies are often required to raise a single AV point. As a Pokémon's AV increases for a stat, it will require more and larger Candy to further increase the same stat by one AV. Regular-sized Candy can only raise a stat up to 50 AVs. L-sized Candy can go up to 100 AVs, but require the Pokémon to be at least level 30. XL-sized Candy can reach the maximum 200 AVs, but only work for level 60 and up.

=====Species-based Candy=====
Species-based Candy can only be used by Pokémon of its corresponding evolutionary line. Bulbasaur Candy, for example, can only be used by {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Ivysaur}}, and {{p|Venusaur}}. When one is used, it will increase all stats by one AV point, up until all stats hit the maximum 200 AVs, and has no level requirements. Unlike in Pokémon GO, species-specific Candy do not play a role in evolution. Additionally, unlike Pokémon GO since the introduction of {{p|Tyrogue}}, {{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Hitmonchan}} have separate Candy. Ordinary {{p|Pikachu}} and {{p|Eevee}} Candy can be used on the [[Partner_Pokémon_(Let's_Go,_Pikachu!_and_Let's_Go,_Eevee!)|Partner Pikachu and Eevee]], respectively.

=====Acquisition=====
Candy is most commonly obtained through catching [[wild Pokémon]] or [[Released Pokémon|transferring]] Pokémon to [[Professor Oak]]. The type of Candy obtained depends on the species caught or transferred. The stat-based Candies that can be rewarded correspond directly with the species' [[effort values]] yield in other core series game. For example, if a Pokémon like {{p|Growlithe}} would yield EVs in Attack in those games, it may award Mighty Candies (of any size) if caught in Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!. Pokémon that would yield EVs for multiple stats, like {{p|Seadra}} which gives both Defense and Special Attack EVs, may award Tough Candies, Smart Candies, or both.

:''See also: [[List of Pokémon by effort value yield]]''

Catching a wild Pokémon may sometimes award player a random number of Candy. The higher the player's [[Catch Combo]], the more likely that higher quantities and larger Candies will be awarded. A player may start earning regular-sized Candy after catching 30 Pokémon; Candy L can be earned after catching 60 Pokémon, and Candy XL can be earned after catching 90. Players may start earning species-specific candy after catching a total of 120 Pokémon.

For every Pokémon transferred, Professor Oak will award the {{player}} one stat-based Candy based on whichever Candy it may yield when caught in the wild. Transferring (releasing) {{p|Mew}} uniquely gives the player with 2 Mew Candy immediately, in addition to the regular 1 Health Candy.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Exz3_3plffA</ref>

Species-based Candy can repeatedly be obtained by:
* Catching compatible Pokémon (chance of obtaining increases with [[Catch Combo]])
* Transfer 50 compatible Pokémon of the same species to [[Professor Oak]]
* Stroll Pokémon with [[Poké Ball Plus]] (up to two Candies per every 5,000 [[experience|Exp.]] gained)
** One Candy for strolling Pokémon and one Candy for [[walking Pokémon]] in game, if any

Several Voltorb Candy can be found daily as hidden items in the [[Kanto Power Plant|Power Plant]]

Additionally, depending on the game, players can obtain Pikachu{{sup/7|P}}/Eevee{{sup/7|E}} Candy once through the following means:
* 5 in {{rt|11|Kanto}} (defeat {{tc|Coach Trainer}} Will)
* 5 in [[Pokémon Tower]] (defeat {{tc|Coach Trainer}} Holly)
* 10 in {{ka|Victory Road}} (defeat {{tc|Coach Trainer}} Alemana)

Note that as a result of the various acquisition methods, species-specific Candy for [[Legendary Pokémon|Legendary]] and [[Mythical Pokémon]] can only be obtained through one or more of the following methods:

* {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, and {{p|Moltres}}: Repeatedly catch through wild sky rare encounters, transfer multiple from {{pkmn|GO}} and send to Professor Oak, or stroll with the [[Poké Ball Plus]]
* {{p|Mewtwo}}: Transfer multiple from GO and send to Professor Oak, or stroll with the [[Poké Ball Plus]]. With no external devices, the only way to obtain one or more Mewtwo Candy would be to trade over numerous Mewtwo from separate save files before sending all of them to Professor Oak.
* {{p|Meltan}}: Transfer multiple from GO and send to Professor Oak, or stroll with the [[Poké Ball Plus]]
* {{p|Mew}}: Stroll with the [[Poké Ball Plus]] only

====Pokémon Sword and Shield====
=====Dynamax Candy=====
{{main|Dynamax Candy}}
A Dynamax Candy increases a Pokémon's [[Dynamax]] Level by one, which increases the amount of [[HP]] it gains upon Dynamaxing. Dynamax Candies can be obtained as rewards for winning [[Max Raid Battle]]s.

'''Route 1''' (Japanese: '''１{{tt|番道路|ばんどうろ}}''' ''Route 1'') is a [[route]] located in western [[Kanto]]. It connects [[Pallet Town]] in the south to [[Viridian City]] in the north.

==Route description==
Heading north from [[Pallet Town]], {{pkmn|Trainer}}s must make their way around a large but very primitive route, that will become the very first route they will explore on their journey. The route is riddled with large patches of [[tall grass]], and [[ledge]]s that contour from far east to all to the far west, blocking off most of the route making it hard to travel north, only to have small gaps by which the road has been broken into it.
[[File:Poké Mart assistant Route 1 FRLG.png|thumb|left|200px|The [[Poké Mart]] assistant giving away free samples of [[Potion]]s]]
From the narrow "gateway" into Route 1, the route will make its way west as a ledge will block the road, however patches of tall grass be found by traveling east. After traveling north past the gap in the ledge, there will be a small clearing, where a man working for a [[Poké Mart]] can be found giving out a free [[Potion]] to Trainers. Heading away from the small clearing, the route makes its way eastern, and creates an "S" shapes as it winds around tall ground, as well as long ledges. Route 1 then travels northerly through two consecutive patches of tall grass, one larger than the other. It then finishes off by curving westerly, and then north as it enters [[Viridian City]].

Heading south from Viridian City, Trainers can either hop down ledges to completely avoid any contact with wild {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} on their way to Pallet Town or they can travel through the grass patches, the required path for northbound travel. Following the grass-lined path, the route turns east then south as it enters the first patch. After a small break, the path of the route enters another patch of grass as the route turns west. Route 1 then makes an "S", turning to the south, then to the east before returning south and west, passing through the third grassy area. The path then juts south, entering another patch before curving to the east then to the south as it enters Pallet.

There are no opponent Trainers on this route in Generations {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|III}}. In [[Generation II]], two Trainers appear, while in [[Generation IV]], four Trainers are on the route. In [[Generation VII]], there is one Trainer here, although he cannot be challenged before delivering the [[Parcel]] to [[Professor Oak]]. A [[Bitter Berry]] grows here in Generation II, while a [[Black Apricorn|Blk Apricorn]] does so in Generation IV. The Poké Mart employee is not present in Generations II and IV.

==Differences among generations==
===Generation I and III===
The [[route]] layout in Generations {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|III}} are nearly identical, however, the Generation I version has grassy patches to both the east and the west of the route itself. By using the [[Cheating|walk anywhere]] glitch, {{pkmn|Trainer}}s can enter the grass, but the game will freeze as the area contains no walkable data nor data for wild Pokémon.

Apart from this, most aesthetic features have been enhanced. Trees have become bigger, flowers are more visible, and most other sprites have been upgraded to Generation III standards.

===Generation II===
The route remains mostly the same apart from a few minor changes to the gameplay. Heading south from [[Viridian City]], Trainers can either hop down ledges to completely avoid any contact with wild Pokémon (which now include {{p|Sentret}}, {{p|Furret}} and {{p|Hoothoot}}) on their way to [[Pallet Town]], or alternatively travel through the patches of grass.

On their way down, there are two other Trainers waiting for battle. One can found near the northern side of the route, while the other can be found in the near the middle in the clearing. He has replaced the {{ci|Viridian}} [[Poké Mart]] employee who gives away Potions, however there is a [[Bitter Berry]] tree that sprouted along the northwest portion of the route. Lastly, the grass patches outside of the route have been removed but the spacing between the route and the surrounding forest still remains.

|}

===Generation IV===
Other than graphical updates, the basic layout remains the same as previous generations, but the route is no longer flat, due to hills being added to give feeling of depth to the route. Heading south from [[Viridian City]], a [[gate]] has been added between the route and Viridian City, in order for the game to load the different tilesets used between the areas.

The Bitter Berry tree has been changed into a [[Black Apricorn|Blk Apricorn]] tree, which can be found between the two ledges located on the northwestern side of the route. By traveling east, Trainers are able to battle a {{tc|School Kid|Schoolboy}}, and by jumping off the ledge and heading east, another Schoolboy can be challenged, with Pokémon similar to the other Schoolboy in Generation II.

By jumping down the ledge and going through the tall grass, the route soon turns into the clearing. Like in Generation II, the Viridian Poké Mart employee is no longer present and is replaced by a Trainer. On Mondays, Tuesdays, and Saturdays there is a photographer here, who will take a picture of the {{player}} and their party.

There is a male {{tc|Ace Trainer}} just south of the photographer, as well as another female {{tc|Ace Trainer}}, with Pokémon similar to the other Cooltrainer in Generation II. Route 1 makes the "S", turning to the south, then to the east before returning south and west, passing through the third grassy area. The path then juts south, entering another patch before curving to the east then to the south as it enters Pallet Town.

===Generation VII===
The route remains mostly unchanged compared to previous generations. Only notable differences are the presence of a {{tc|Youngster}}, who will battle the player once [[Professor Oak]]'s [[Parcel]] has been delivered; a [[Berry]] bush in the northeast corner; and the inclusion of {{p|Oddish}}{{sup/7|P}}/{{p|Bellsprout}}{{sup/7|E}} into the selection of catchable Pokémon.

===''Pokémon the Series''===
[[File:Kanto Route 1 anime.png|250px|thumb|left|Route 1 in {{aniseries|BW}}]]
[[File:Kanto Route 1 overview SM.png|250px|thumb|Route 1 overview in {{aniseries|SM}}]]
===={{aniseries|OS}}====
Route 1 was introduced in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''. {{Ash}}, who had just received his {{AP|Pikachu}} and was still trying to get a handle on the rebellious Pokémon, set off on his journey, beginning with Route 1. He first found a {{p|Pidgey}} and was eager to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it, but Pikachu didn't want to help him and instead ran up a tree. Frustrated, Ash decided to try to catch the Pidgey without Pikachu's help. He threw a {{i|Poké Ball}} at it, but the Pidgey broke out easily and fled. Ash turned and saw a {{p|Rattata}} digging through his bag.

Ash turned and saw a group of Pidgey in the field; he threw a rock at them, which only scared them away. However, he saw another bird Pokémon in the field, mistook it for another Pidgey, and threw another rock at it, which hit it in the back of its head. When it turned to look at him, however, he realized that he actually hit a {{p|Spearow}}. The Spearow swooped several times to attack him and Pikachu.

As the Spearow chased Ash and Pikachu, two herds of Pokémon that do not appear on this route in the {{pkmn|games}} were seen: {{p|Mankey}} and {{p|Sandshrew}}.

After jumping in the river, narrowly evading an attack from a {{p|Magikarp}} and {{p|Gyarados}}, Ash and Pikachu met {{an|Misty}}, who was [[fishing]] for {{t|Water}} Pokémon. He stole her [[Bicycle|bike]], putting the injured Pikachu in its basket, and rode away, promising that he would bring it back someday. They were attacked once again by the Spearow, but Pikachu used a massive electrical attack to take out the entire flock. Once the storm cleared, Ash and Pikachu both rose from where they were knocked back on the ground, exhausted but victorious. Ash looked up and saw {{an|Ho-Oh|an unknown Pokémon}} majestically flying through the sky, over the rainbow that had been left after the storm, but his Pokédex could not identify the species.

====''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]''====
Route 1 was also briefly seen in ''[[BW142|The Dream Continues!]]'' while Ash and [[Alexa]] passed it on their way to Pallet Town.

===''I Choose You!''===
Route 1 appeared in the opening of ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]''. [[Ash Ketchum (M20)|Ash]] left [[Pallet Town]] via this route at the start of his journey, with his newly obtained, disobedient [[Ash's Pikachu (M20)|Pikachu]]. Ash and Pikachu were attacked by a large flock of {{p|Spearow}} and attempted to escape in the midst of a rainstorm, culminating in Pikachu unleashing a powerful {{m|Thunderbolt}} on the Spearow, knocking himself and his Trainer out in the process. Ash and Pikachu woke up after the storm had passed to see {{p|Ho-Oh}} flying overhead, dropping a [[Rainbow Wing]] as it flew. Ash picked up the feather and proclaimed to Pikachu that they would meet it again someday.

===Pokémon Origins===
[[File:Kanto Route 1 PO.png|250px|thumb|Route 1 in [[Pokémon Origins]]]]
Route 1 appeared in ''[[PO01|File 1: Red]]'', where {{OBP|Red|Origins}} was seen traveling through it on his way to Viridian City. Soon after entering the Route, he encountered a wild {{p|Pidgey}}, and tried to catch it, but it got away. After a short while, he got the hang of catching Pokémon, and caught multiple different species, including a {{p|Spearow}}, {{p|Caterpie}}, and Pidgey.

Along the way, he encountered a {{tc|Youngster}}, who challenged him to a battle with his {{p|Nidoran♀}}. Not knowing other Trainer's Pokémon couldn't be caught, Red tried to throw a {{i|Poké Ball}} at Nidoran♀, only to have it bounce off. The Youngster, however, agreed to tell Red where he could find a [[Nidoran]] of his own. Shortly before arriving in Viridian City, Red encountered {{OBP|Blue|Origins}}, who challenged him to a battle. Due to Blue's {{p|Squirtle}} having a type advantage over [[Red's Charmander]], Blue easily won the battle. Afterwards, Red met [[Brock]], who, having watched the battle, suggested Red that he should start challenging the [[Gym Leader]]s in order to learn how to battle.

==In the manga==
[[File:Kanto Route 1 Adventures.png|thumb|250px|Route 1 in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
===={{MangaArc|Red, Green & Blue}}====
Route 1 made a brief appearance in ''[[PS002|Bulbasaur, Come Home!]]''. After {{adv|Red}} had accidentally let loose some {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that {{adv|Professor Oak}} was keeping in his {{TP|Professor Oak|Laboratory}}, he and Professor Oak were forced to pursue them, with some of them having escaped all the way to Route 1 and [[Viridian City]].
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* In [[Generation I]], if a player currently on Route 1 opens the [[Town Map]], pressing up will apparently do nothing at first, as the selection will go from Route 1 (the current place) to Route 1 again due to [[List of glitches in Generation I#Town Map selection oversight|an oversight]]. The player will need to press up twice to select the next place, which is [[Viridian City]]. Similarly, a player in the {{ka|Power Plant}} will need to press down twice to go to the previous place in the Town Map.
* A remix of the theme on this [[route]] was used in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]. It can also be found in [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U]] and [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]].
* In Generations II and IV, the remixed music track for this Route starts from the notes at the last few seconds of the original track's music.
* The ''[[Primo|Poké Dude]] Show'' that airs on the [[Teachy TV]] is filmed here.

[[File:Trade Evolution.png|thumb|right|200px|Early explanation about trade Evolution<br>(''[[Pokémon Gold and Silver: Complete Pokédex]]'', page 25)]]
'''Trade Evolution'''<ref>"[https://diamondpearl.pokemon.com/en-gb/trainersguide/fundamentals/raising/ Trainers Guide - Alternate Methods of Evolution]." Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Pokémon Shining Pearl official website.</ref><ref>''[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Pokédex]]'', page 402</ref><ref name="GSdex">''[[Pokémon Gold and Silver: Complete Pokédex]]'', page 25</ref> refers to the process of [[Evolution|evolving]] a Pokémon by [[trade|trading]] it to another game. This [[Methods of Evolution|method of Evolution]] was introduced in [[Generation I]]. From [[Generation II]] onwards, several Pokémon evolve when traded with a [[held item]]. In [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]], trading is not required for trade Evolution.

In some early guidebooks, this has been also referred to as '''Link Trade Evolution''',<ref name="GSdex"/> '''Link-Trade Evolution''',<ref>''[[Pokémon Gold and Silver: Official Nintendo Player's Guide]]'', page 22</ref> '''Trade Transformation'''<ref>''[[Pokémon Gold and Silver: Official Nintendo Player's Guide]]'', page 90</ref><ref>''[[Pokémon Crystal: Official Nintendo Player's Guide]]'', page 22</ref> or, in the case of trading with a held item, '''Item Trade Evolution'''.<ref name="GSdex"/>

This is known as '''Evolution by Transmission''' in the manual of [[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire]].<ref>[[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire]] game manual, section "Get the Evolution Items", page 43 (American version) or page 39 (European version)</ref>

==In the core series games==
{{incomplete|section|Confirm if a Pokémon holding the correct Evolution item evolves when traded from RBY in GSC in the Time Capsule}}

In the [[core series]] games, the Pokémon evolves automatically after being traded. Several Pokémon evolve by trade without any additional requirement, but several other Pokémon need to be [[held item|holding]] a specific [[Evolution item]] in order to evolve. The item is consumed after the Evolution.

The player who received this Pokémon obtains both the unevolved and evolved species as caught in their [[Pokédex]].

It is not possible to press B to [[Evolution prevention|cancel a trade Evolution]], unlike certain other [[methods of Evolution]].

===Trading Pokémon with a held Everstone===
{{main|Everstone}}
If a Pokémon is able to evolve by trade with no held item (such as {{p|Machoke}} into {{p|Machamp}}, or {{p|Haunter}} into {{p|Gengar}}), it will not evolve when traded while holding a [[Everstone]], except in some cases as explained below.

The Everstone is unavailable in several games that lack the [[held item]] feature (namely the [[Generation I]] games, {{LGPE}}, and {{pkmn|Legends: Arceus}}), and it does not prevent trade Evolutions in [[Generation III]] games due to a glitch. In all those games, if a Pokémon is able to evolve by trade with no held item, then there is no way to trade it while keeping it unevolved.

====Generation III trading glitch====
In [[Generation III]] only, trade Evolution is affected by a [[List of glitches in Generation III#Held item loss glitch|glitch]]: if {{p|Kadabra}}, {{p|Machoke}}, {{p|Graveler}}, or {{p|Haunter}} are traded while holding any item, including an [[Everstone]], the Pokémon will still evolve, and the item will be consumed.

====Kadabra holding Everstone====
In [[Generation II]] only, the Everstone works normally on {{p|Kadabra}}. If a Kadabra is traded while holding an Everstone, it will be prevented from evolving.

In all other generations, there is no way to trade a Kadabra while keeping it unevolved. When a Kadabra is traded, it inevitably evolves into {{p|Alakazam}} even if it is holding an Everstone.

In addition to the Generation III glitch mentioned above, the Everstone does not work on Kadabra from [[Generation IV]] onwards because this Pokémon is explicitly programmed as an exception.

===Feebas===

{{p|Feebas}} originally evolved into {{p|Milotic}} when [[level]]ed up with its {{OBP|Beautiful|condition}} condition high enough. From [[Generation V]] onwards, it can also evolve when traded while holding a [[Prism Scale]].

===Karrablast and Shelmet===
In the case of {{p|Karrablast}} or {{p|Shelmet}}, they evolve specifically when one is traded by the other. However, if either of those Pokémon is holding an Everstone during this trade, neither will evolve.

===National Pokédex requirement in FireRed and LeafGreen===
In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, if the player does not have the [[National Pokédex]], when a Pokémon in the [[Kanto Pokédex]] meets its Evolution conditions but its evolved form is not in the Kanto Pokédex (including trade Evolutions such as {{p|Onix}} into {{p|Steelix}}), it will attempt to evolve but fail.

===Pokémon Legends: Arceus===
In {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, uniquely within the [[core series]], trading is not needed to evolve Pokémon that normally require it. Instead, a [[Linking Cord]] can alternatively be used from the player's [[satchel]] to trigger a Pokémon's Evolution. {{cat|Pokémon that evolve by trading with a held item|Pokémon that require a held item to evolve through trade}} will evolve when the item is used from the satchel, as held items do not exist in this game. Consequently, these Pokémon cannot evolve through trade, and the Linking Cord has no effect on them.

===Availability outside of trades===
In some cases, trade Evolution is [[Pokémon availability|available]] outside of trades.

* {{pkmn|Blue Version (Japanese)|Blue (Japanese)}}: Two of the [[in-game trade]]s in this game involve Pokémon that evolve by trading. In one, the player gives away {{p|Kadabra}} and receives {{p|Graveler}}; the other one has them give away {{p|Machoke}} and receive {{p|Haunter}}. The Pokémon they receive this way will thus evolve into {{p|Golem}} and {{p|Gengar}} respectively, allowing them to be registered without linking to another game.
* {{game|Yellow}}: One of the in-game trades in this game allows the player to give away {{p|Cubone}} and receive Machoke in return, which will thus evolve into {{p|Machamp}}.
* {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}: Wild {{p|Steelix}} can be found directly in the lower floors of [[Iron Island]], without needing to go through Evolution. Additionally, if the player has access to [[dual-slot mode]] with any [[Generation III]] game, wild {{p|Gengar}} can be found in one room of the [[Old Chateau]].
* {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}: Wild Steelix can be found at [[Mt. Silver]], in the room where {{p|Moltres}} spawns. Alternatively, after the player defeats the {{pkmn|Champion}}, [[Jasmine]] can also give out a Steelix in an in-game trade where she will accept any Pokémon in return.
* {{game|Black and White|s}}: {{p|Politoed}}, {{p|Slowking}}, {{p|Kingdra}}, {{p|Milotic}} (which has newly become a trade Evolution in this generation, with no means of increasing its Beauty), {{p|Huntail}}, and {{p|Gorebyss}} are all catchable in the wild using the phenomenon of rippling water in various places, though Huntail is version-exclusive to Black while Gorebyss is exclusive to White.
* {{B2W2}}: With the exception of Slowking, the wild trade Evolutions that were available from Black and White's rippling water remain available here, with Huntail and Gorebyss retaining their version exclusivity for players who are unable to trade. In addition, wild {{p|Steelix}} are now available from the phenomenon of dust clouds in [[Clay Tunnel]], and two in-game trades offer trade-Evolution Pokémon directly at their final stage, without registering the pre-evolved form first. One NPC requests {{p|Emolga}} and gives away {{p|Gigalith}} (in Black and White, this same NPC asks for {{p|Boldore}} in a trade and gives away Emolga), while another asks for {{p|Hippowdon}} and gives away {{p|Alakazam}}, though this trade does not become available until the player does a separate trade, as well as a battle, with the same NPC.
* {{g|X and Y}}: {{p|Trevenant}}, {{p|Politoed}}, {{p|Huntail}}, and {{p|Gorebyss}} are all available as wild encounters on their respective routes, and once again Huntail and Gorebyss serve as version counterparts when obtained this way, with Huntail appearing in X and Gorebyss in Y. In addition, an in-game trade is available where the player gives away {{p|Luvdisc}} and receives Steelix.
* {{g|Sun and Moon}}: Wild Gengar, Politoed, and {{p|Trevenant}} have a small chance to appear in [[SOS Battle]]s in which their respective pre-Evolutions call for help, allowing them to be obtained without trading. Wild {{p|Conkeldurr}} can also be found using {{DL|QR Scanner|Island Scan}} on Mondays, and there is an in-game trade where the player can give away {{p|Haunter}} and receive {{rf|Alolan}} {{p|Graveler}}, which will thus evolve into {{p|Golem}}.
* {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}: The Gengar, Politoed, and Trevenant helpers are still available here, joined by additional SOS helpers in {{p|Slowking}}, {{p|Huntail}}, and {{p|Gorebyss}}. Unlike in previous games, the Huntail and Gorebyss encounters are no longer version-exclusive, but instead depend on whether the battle started during daytime or nighttime according to the in-game clock. No trade Evolutions are available from Island Scan this time, and the NPC who offered the Graveler trade in the previous games now offers a different trade instead, in which both traders give away {{p|Phantump}} -- thus causing both to evolve into Trevenant.
* {{g|Sword and Shield}}: With the exceptions of {{p|Porygon2}}, {{p|Porygon-Z}}, and {{p|Slowking}}, all the Pokémon that appear in these games and that evolve by trading can also be found as wandering Pokémon, in either the [[Wild Area]] or one of its DLC counterparts (the [[Isle of Armor]] or the [[Crown Tundra]]), though {{p|Slurpuff}} is version-exclusive to Sword and {{p|Aromatisse}} is exclusive to Shield, and some Pokémon may only appear on days with specific weather conditions. They may also be obtained from [[Max Raid Battle]] dens--prior to the release of the Expansion Pass, {{p|Escavalier}} could not be found as a wanderer and was exclusive to raid dens originating from Sword, while Accelgor was exclusive to raid dens originating from Shield. Finally, while the non-{{rf|Galarian}} form of Slowking is not obtainable in the wild, it has a chance to be found in the [[Max Lair]] during Dynamax Adventures.
* {{g|Legends: Arceus}}: As noted above, the Pokédex in this game was designed to be completed without needing to connect to other players. Pokémon that evolve via trade can therefore be obtained without trading, by using either the Linking Cord item or the item that the species would normally hold during a trade in order to evolve, as though that item were an Evolution stone. These species may also be found in the wild as [[Alpha Pokémon]], or during [[massive mass outbreak]]s or [[space-time distortion]]s.
* {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}: All trade-Evolution Pokémon that exist in these games have a small chance to be found in their fully evolved stage in raid dens for [[Tera Raid Battle]]s, as does {{p|Palafin}} which is not a trade Evolution but which does normally require connecting to other players in [[Union Circle]] to evolve. In the case of Pokémon that were first added to the game during the two phases of the Expansion Pass, only raid dens in the appropriate area ([[Kitakami]] or the [[Blueberry Academy]]) have a chance to spawn them. Gengar and {{p|Scizor}} in particular can also be found in the wild in specific DLC areas. Additionally, there is an in-game trade in which the player gives away {{p|Pincurchin}} and receives {{p|Haunter}}; unlike in-game trades in Diamond, Pearl, and their remakes, this Haunter is not holding an [[Everstone]], so it will evolve into Gengar.

==In the side series games==
{{incomplete|section|State whether or not it is possible to stop a trade Evolution by pressing B in the Stadium games, Colosseum, and XD}}

===Pokémon Stadium series===
In [[Pokémon Stadium]] and {{pkmn|Stadium 2}}, Pokémon are able to evolve by trade as in the [[core series]] games. The Pokémon trades are available by using trade machine in the {{OBP|Pokémon Lab|Stadium}}, where Pokémon are traded between two [[core series]] games using [[Transfer Pak]]s.

The earlier {{jpn|Pokémon Stadium|Japanese Pokémon Stadium}} has no trade feature. [[Pokémon Stadium]] is compatible with Generation I Pokémon, which require no held item. [[Pokémon Stadium 2]] is compatible with Generation I and II Pokémon, some of which require a held item to evolve.

===Pokémon Colosseum and XD: Gale of Darkness===
In [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], Pokémon are able to evolve by trade as in the [[core series]] games.

The only trade Evolution available outside of trades in either game is the {{pkmn2|Shadow}} {{p|Scizor}} in the Japanese version of Colosseum, which requires the [[e-Reader]] and the [[Pokémon Colosseum Double Battle e]] cards.

===Pokémon HOME===
In [[Pokémon HOME]], trade Evolutions are not triggered by online trades, unlike in the [[core series]] games.

==In the spin-off games==
===Pokémon GO===
{{main|Trade (GO)|section=Trade Evolution}}
In [[Pokémon GO]], this is officially referred to as "trade Evolution". This feature was introduced on January 10, 2020.<ref>[https://pokemongolive.com/en/post/trade-evolution/ Trade Evolution and more Pokémon originally discovered in Unova are here!]</ref> The {{cat|Pokémon that evolve through trading|Pokémon that evolve by trading}} (with no [[held item]]) in the [[core series]] can either evolve in Pokémon GO if the player spends {{OBP|Candy|GO}} or if the player has obtained this Pokémon from a trade. However, only a subset of those Pokémon can currently trade evolve in Pokémon GO.

Unlike in the core series, which requires Pokémon to be at a specific evolutionary stage to evolve via trade, Pokémon in Pokémon GO become eligible for trade Evolution if they were traded at any evolutionary stage prior to their trade Evolution stage. For example, trading a {{p|Gastly}} and then evolving it to {{p|Haunter}} makes it eligible to later evolve into {{p|Gengar}} at no Candy cost.

Notably, no {{cat|Pokémon that evolve by trading with a held item}} in the core series can trade evolve in Pokémon GO. These Pokémon instead require [[List of items in Pokémon GO#Evolution items|Evolution items]] in addition to {{OBP|Candy|GO}} to evolve.

===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series===
====Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team, Blue Rescue Team, Explorers of Time, Explorers of Darkness, Explorers of Sky, and Gates to Infinity====
In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team, Blue Rescue Team]], [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Explorers of Time, Explorers of Darkness]], [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Explorers of Sky]], and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity|Gates to Infinity]] the {{MD evo item|Link Cable}} item is used to [[Evolution (Mystery Dungeon)|evolve]] the Pokémon that would evolve by trade in the core series games.

If the Pokémon would evolve by being traded while holding an item, then both the Link and that same item are required to evolve this Pokémon. For instance, {{p|Scyther}} evolves into {{p|Scizor}} by using both the {{MD evo item|Link Cable}} and the {{MD evo item|Metal Coat}}. The items are consumed during the Evolution.

In Gates to Infinity, the Link Cable can be used to evolve two available Pokémon: {{p|Gurdurr}} into {{p|Conkeldurr}}, and {{p|Boldore}} into {{p|Gigalith}}. However, other items used in trade Evolutions (such as the {{MD evo item|King's Rock}} or {{MD evo item|Metal Coat}}) are not found in-game, and there are no available Pokémon that would evolve by using those items.

====Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon====
In [[Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon]], all trade Evolutions are readily available with no requirement.

====Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX====
In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX]], all the methods of Evolution other than [[level-based Evolution|evolution by level]] were replaced by {{MD evo item|Evolution Crystal|Evolution Crystals|g=RTDX}}.

A Pokémon needs 2 Evolution Crystals to evolves into its 2nd stage, or 4 Evolution Crystals to evolve into its 3rd stage.

===Pokémon Sleep===
{{main|Linking Cord|section=Pokémon Sleep}}
In [[Pokémon Sleep]], the [[Linking Cord]] item and certain amounts of {{OBP|candy|Sleep}} are required to evolve the available Pokémon that would normally evolve by trade in the [[core series]] games. This item and the candy are consumed upon use.

===e-Reader games===
In [[Machop At Work]], if the player character {{p|Machop}} manages to smash all 100 rocks, it evolves into {{p|Machoke}}, and then again into {{p|Machamp}}. Although Machoke evolves into Machamp by trade in the [[core series]] games, it appears to evolve simply as a result of smashing rocks in this spin-off game.

==In animation==
===''Pokémon the Series''===
In {{aniseries|PTS}}, trade Evolutions do not require that a Pokémon be traded between different Trainers to evolve. For instance, {{cat|Pokémon that evolve by trading with a held item}} will evolve upon transfer between [[Pokémon Center]]s while holding the correct [[Evolution item]], as seen in the {{aniseries|GS|''Gold and Silver''}} episode ''[[EP247|Outrageous Fortunes]]'' with [[Misty's Politoed|Misty's Poliwhirl]] and in the {{aniseries|AG|''Ruby and Sapphire''}} episode ''[[AG095|The Evolutionary War]]'' with [[Nancy]] and {{OBP|Keith|AG095}}'s {{p|Clamperl}}. In the {{aniseries|JN|''Pokémon Journeys''}} episode ''[[JN056|Searching for Chivalry]]'', [[Goh]]'s {{p|Scyther}} evolved into {{TP|Goh|Scizor}} after being transferred through a [[trade machine]] while holding a [[Metal Coat]], without leaving Goh's ownership at any point.

==Trivia==
* All trade Evolutions introduced in Generation {{gen|II}} and {{gen|IV}} are [[List of cross-generational evolutionary lines|cross-generational Evolutions]] (evolving Pokémon introduced in earlier generations).
* {{p|Porygon}} is the only Pokémon to evolve twice via [[trade|trading]]. Both Evolutions require a held item, namely the [[Upgrade]] and [[Dubious Disc]].
** {{p|Porygon2}} is the only Pokémon to have evolved from trading that can evolve further.
* The {{p|Clamperl}} line is the only branched Evolution in which both Evolutions are achieved by trading.
* {{p|Feebas}} evolving into {{p|Milotic}} is the only case where a non-trade Evolution later gained a trade Evolution into the same Pokémon species.
* {{p|Trevenant}} is the only Pokémon to have evolved from trading that can also be found as a [[wild Pokémon]] in the same games where it was introduced.
* Since [[Generation VII]], no new Pokémon that evolve by trade have been introduced, other than a [[regional form]].
** {{rf|Alolan}} {{p|Graveler}} is the only regional form with a trade Evolution.

===Held items===
* Out of all items used to evolve Pokémon by trade, [[King's Rock]] and [[Metal Coat]] are the only ones usable by two Pokémon species each, with all other items being exclusively used by a single Pokémon each.
* Several items introduced between Generations {{gen|II}} and {{gen|IV}} can not only trigger an Evolution when [[held item|held]] by a traded Pokémon but also have other unrelated uses when held by Pokémon in {{pkmn|battle}}. Other held items introduced from [[Generation V]] onwards are exclusively used for trade Evolutions.
** In [[Generation II]], the [[Upgrade]] was the only item with no other use than triggering a trade Evolution, while the [[Dragon Scale]], [[King's Rock]], and [[Metal Coat]] also had some in-battle effects unrelated to Evolution. However, Dragon Scale actually had the in-battle effect intended for [[Dragon Fang]] as the result of [[List of battle glitches in Generation II#Dragon Fang effect|an oversight]]. This was fixed from [[Pokémon Stadium 2]] onwards, rendering the Dragon Scale with no effect other than being used for Evolution.

Giant's Cap

The '''Giant's Cap''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|巨人の帽子|きょじんのぼうし}}''' ''Giant's Cap'') is a part of the [[Wild Area]] in the [[Galar]] [[region]], located in the west of the northern portion of the Wild Area. It connects to the [[Stony Wilderness]] to its south and the [[Hammerlocke Hills]] to its north.

==Geography==

==Watt Trader==
{{main|Watt Trader}}
The [[Watt Trader]] is located next to a tree west of the lake. His stock follows a schedule that changes daily, and always consists of one type of [[Poké Ball]], a [[Wishing Piece]], and five distinct [[TR]]s.

==Items==
{{Itlisth|land}}
{{Itemlist|Dawn Stone|On the top of a cliff on the west side of the area, north of the Berry tree at the south tip|Sw=yes|Sh=yes}}
{{Itlistfoot|land}}

===Hidden items===
Unless otherwise stated, hidden items in the Wild Area regenerate every day. In many of these cases, they can also regenerate as different items.

Every item that regenerates every day can also rarely regenerate as a [[Wishing Piece]] (at approximately a 1% chance).

{{tc|Hiker}}s and {{tc|Fisher}}s may appear throughout the Giant's Cap to offer the player a random item for 100 [[Watt]]s.

===Berry tree===
Shaking a [[Berry tree]] can yield Berries, but a Pokémon may be shaken loose instead and steal some of the Berries after a battle.

In [[PASV11]], {{adv|Violet}} and [[Arven]] discovered the Bitter Herba Mystica after defeating {{pkmn2|Titan}} {{p|Bombirdier}}. Arven made some [[sandwich]]es out of it, sharing them amongst himself, his {{p|Mabosstiff}}, Violet, and Mireia, a {{tc|Musician}} who had helped them against Bombirdier. The power of the Bitter Herba Mystica allowed Mabosstiff to recover a little more, much to Arven's relief. When {{ga|Miraidon}} ate one of the sandwiches, it gained a power-up, with [[Professor Turo]] contacting Violet to specify that Miraidon had regained its ability to swim.
