Gym (GO)

{{outdated}}
A '''Gym''' (Japanese: '''ジム''' ''Gym'') is a type of location in [[Pokémon GO]].

In the Map View, Gyms are marked as color-coded towers with the [[Gym]] symbol above them. If the Gym belongs to a team, the top of the tower will swap between the Gym symbol and the Gym's newest added Pokémon.

==Placement==
[[File:GO Guide Gym 1.png|thumb|150px|A Gym claimed by Team Mystic, with a {{p|Pidgeot}} as its strongest Pokémon]]
Gyms are fixed locations in the real world that players must physically visit to battle. Gyms are generally in public locations, including (but not limited to) public artwork/murals, libraries, famous landmarks, churches, police stations, fire stations, and public parks. While players must be physically close to Gyms to battle them, they generally do not need to enter the building to be close enough (if the Gym is a building).

Gyms are based on a selection of portals from the [[Niantic]] game {{wp|Ingress (video game)|Ingress}}. Until 2015, Ingress players could submit proposals for portals which subsequently had to be approved by Niantic. Gyms are less common than [[PokéStop]]s, which were also created from Ingress portals. This distribution was slightly balanced, after some [[PokéStop]]s were converted into Gyms on 19 June 2017.

If for some reason a physical location is unsuitable as a Gym, players may send a request to Niantic via the Pokémon GO website or Niantic Support official Twitter account to remove it from the game. This could be due to safety concerns or if there is an error related to the Gym (the landmark no longer exists, never existed in the first place, or has been converted to a different use such as a private residence).

==Inspecting a Gym==
[[File:GO Guide Gym 2.png|thumb|150px|left|Inspecting a level 4 Gym controlled by Team Valor (red)]]
If a Gym tower is visible in the Map View, it can still be inspected even if it is outside of range.

If the player is not on a team and below level 5, they will be advised to return at level 5.

If the player is not on a team and above level 5, they will be given the option to select a team. Once the player selects a team, it cannot be changed. This is the only way to select a team.

If the player is on a team, they can view the Gym screen. The Gym screen shows every defender; for each of the defending Pokémon (when selected), its name (or nickname if owned by the player), its appearance, its CP, its Motivation and its Trainer (avatar, [[Trainer level]], and username) will be displayed. Additionally, the Gym's name is displayed, as well as a photo of the real world location.
{{-}}

==Searching a Gym==
Players may search Gyms to collect items and/or Eggs. To search a Gym, the player must tap on it, tap on PokéStop icon in bottom right corner, and then spin the Gym's Photo Disc while within range. This will cause 2 to 5 items and/or Eggs to appear in bubbles that emerge from the Photo Disc. While it is possible to tap the bubbles to collect their contents, they will be collected regardless. In addition, searching a Gym gives random amount of experience.

Once the player has searched a Gym's photo disc, it will turn purple for that player only for 5-10 minutes. The player cannot search a purple photo disc until it turns into Gym's color again.

===Rewards===
The items that searching a Gym can yield are dependent on the player's [[level]], with certain items not being unlocked until later levels. Searching a Gym will not yield Eggs if the player already has the maximum 9 Eggs. Player can get only 1 Raid Pass a day. Multiple of the same item can be obtained from a single search. Searching a Gym for the first time will yield a [[Gym Badge]].

===Gym Badges===
The first time a player visits a Gym and uses the Pokéstop there, they will receive a Gym Badge for that location. All subsequent actions taken at that Gym - stationing a defending Pokémon, participating in a Raid Battle, using the Pokéstop - will reward the player Badge Experience to level up the Gym Badge through Bronze, Silver, and Gold levels. Each additional level of the Gym Badge rewards the player an additional item when using the Pokéstop at that Gym, as well as a small amount of trainer experience.

==Control==
If a Gym tower is white, that Gym is currently not controlled by any team. If in range of the Gym, a player on a team can claim it for their team by placing one of their own Pokémon in it.

If a Gym tower is red, yellow, or blue, that Gym is currently controlled by the team of that color. Trainers on opposing teams will be prompted to challenge the Gym to lower opposing Pokémon's motivation. In the Map View, the newest defending Pokémon in the Gym will appear on top of the tower marking the Gym. Players often aim to reduce enemy Pokémon motivation to zero such that gyms become uncontrolled and they can place one of their Pokémon as the first defender and claim the gym for their team.

===Defenders===
A Gym can house up to 6 defenders. If in range of the Gym and there is room for another defender, a player on the same team as the Gym can add one of their Pokémon to the Gym. Each player can only add one of their Pokémon to each Gym.

Only Pokémon with full HP can be deposited in a Gym as a defender. A Pokémon placed in a Gym cannot be removed until its motivation goes to zero, at which point the Pokémon will return to its trainer's collection, but with 0 HP. While in a Gym, Pokémon cannot be [[Evolution|evolved]], [[Power Up|Powered Up]], or used for battle at another gym.

When a Pokémon loses a battle, its motivation goes down, just like its CP. This makes the Pokémon weaker and easier to take down. When its CP reaches 0, the Pokémon returns to its trainer with restored CP and defender bonus. When in range, a player can also restore the motivation and the CP of every Pokémon in a Gym that is occupied by their Team. This will ocasionally reward them with the "Berry Master" [[Medal]].

==Gym Battles==
[[File:GO Guide Gym 3.png|thumb|150px|A Pokémon battle at a Gym]]
In Pokémon GO, battles can only be conducted at Gyms. Battles are not turn-based, and they are conducted between a player and a computer-controlled opponent. Battles are timed, limited to 100 seconds per defender. Defending Pokémon are battled in sequence, from the oldest defender to the newest.

Players can challenge opposing Gyms to decrease enemy Pokémon motivation. Player battles the Gym's Pokémon which are AI controlled. Defeating Pokémon at Gyms will yield a small reward of [[Experience|XP]].

During battle, the player can forfeit or switch Pokémon by tapping the buttons at the bottom-right of the screen. Forfeiting counts as a loss, but the number of Pokémon defeated before forfeiting determines the change in their motivation.

During Gym battles, Pokémon take damage, which lowers their HP and may cause them to faint if their HP reaches 0. Battle-damaged Pokémon can have their HP and consciousness restored with healing items, such as {{DL|Revive|Revive}}s and {{DL|Potion|Potion}}s.

When battling a gym, the player selects a team of six Pokémon of their own to battle against the defending Pokémon. If all of the player's Pokémon faint or time runs out, they lose the Gym battle. If all of the Gym's defending Pokémon faint, the challenger wins the Gym battle. Each defending Pokémon defeated will award experience to the training player.

After defeating a Pokémon, you have 10 seconds to decide if you want to battle next defender. You can also leave it and battle will end. It won't be considered as a Player's defeat.

Players can work together to challenge, with the defending Pokémon's HP being shared between players. An icon with a number will appear on the left-hand side of the screen indicating the number of players currently fighting that Gym.

===Raid Battles===
Raid Battles can also take place at Gyms. A wild Pokémon, typically one much stronger than can be found in the wild, will be stationed at the Gym for a period of time. Using a Raid Pass players can challenge the wild Pokémon and fight it as though it were a Gym defender. As with Gyms, multiple trainers can join together to fight a much stronger Pokémon. Upon defeat, the players who participated in the Raid Battle will receive [[Premier Ball]]s and other various items depending on their performance, and can then use them to attempt to catch the wild Pokémon they defeated.

===Battle mechanics===
Battles are shown with the Gym's Pokémon at the middle of a circular arena with the attacking Pokémon at the circle's edge.

Each Pokémon has three stats which are relevant to Pokémon battles: its HP, its Attack, and its Defense. A Pokémon's {{DL|Statistic|CP|Combat Power}} (CP) is derived from those three stats. A Pokémon loses HP when it is hit by attacks, and faints when its HP is depleted. Damage dealt by attacks is mostly determined by the user's Attack stat, the target's Defense stat, and the attack's power.

Additionally, [[Type#In Pokémon GO|special type effectiveness rules]] apply in Pokémon GO; type effectiveness is derived from the [[type chart]] in the [[Generation VI]] core series games, but there are no immunities and different multipliers. The [[same-type attack bonus]] is applied, giving a 25% boost to moves of the same type as the user.

====Combat actions====
During battle, a Pokémon can perform one of three basic actions.
* Dodge: swipe left or right on the screen.
* Fast Attack: tap the screen.
* Special Attack: tap the Special Attack button. This can only be used when the Special Attack meter is sufficiently charged to execute at least one special attack.

Each Pokémon has one Fast Attack and one Special Attack, being based on [[move]]s the Pokémon can learn in the [[core series]] games. Special Attacks are normally more powerful than Fast Attacks.

=====Dodging=====
{{incomplete|section|How much is damage reduced by? When was it changed?}}
When a Pokémon is about to use an attack, swiping to the left or right can cause the player's Pokémon to dodge the attack. A dodged attack will deal 75% less damage. Prior to a certain date, dodged attacks dealt no damage instead.

=====Fast Attacks=====
The challenging Pokémon's Fast Attack can be used at any time during a battle simply by tapping it. Using a Fast Attack charges the Special Attack meter.

=====Special Attacks=====
Using a Special Attack requires consuming one bar of the Special Attack meter. There is also a warm-up period between commanding the Special Attack and executing it, leaving the Pokémon open to enemy attacks.

The Special Attack meter is empty when the Pokémon is sent out (including after a switch or teammate fainting), and is filled by using Fast Attacks or taking damage from the opponent. The Special Attack meter is displayed below the HP bar.

The amount of the Special Attack meter that is consumed by an attack depends on the number of bar segments for that move (visible on the status screen). Special Attacks with more bar segments use less of the meter for a single use, so can be used more frequently than Special Attacks with fewer bar segments.

Typically, the power of a Special Attack is inversely related to the number of bars in its meter. For example, a weak Special Attack like {{m|Struggle}} with a power of 15 has 5 bars, whereas a strong Special Attack like {{m|Hyper Beam}} has a power of 120 and 1 bar. Consequently, weaker Special Attacks can typically be used more frequently than stronger ones.

==Defender bonus==
[[File:GO Guide Gym 5.png|thumb|150px|Claiming the Defender bonus]]
When the defending Pokémon returns from Gym to its trainer, it brings a defender bonus in the form of PokéCoins. The longer the Pokémon was defending a Gym, the more PokéCoins the player will get. The player receives 1 PokéCoin per 10 minutes defended. This is the only way to obtain PokéCoins without paying for them with real money.

Daily defender bonus limit is 50 PokéCoins, and it is not influenced by number of Pokémon that returned to their trainer.

'''Return''' (Japanese: '''おんがえし''' ''Return Favor'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation II]]. It has been [[TM27]] since Generation II.

==Effect==
Return inflicts damage and has no secondary effect. The base power of Return is dependent on the [[friendship]] of the user. The greater the user's friendship, the greater the base power. The base power can be calculated using the following formula:

<big>'''Base Power = Friendship / 2.5'''</big>

The base power of Return varies between 1 (at the minimum friendship value of 0) and 102 (at the maximum friendship value of 255). The base power of Return is set to 1 if the formula outputs 0. If the user's friendship is 127 or less, {{m|Frustration}} is stronger than Return.

==In other games==
===[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]]===
Return does damage depending on the Pokémon's IQ. At no IQ, it does 5 damage. The damage is increased by 5 after reaching 50 and 100 IQ, and every 100 IQ after that, until it deals 45 damage. Although not possible under normal gameplay, IQ of 1000 or higher makes the attack instantly KO.

==Trivia==
* In the Spanish version of the games prior to [[Generation VI]], Return is called ''{{tt|Retroceso|Flinching}}'', which is likely due to a direct translation of the word ''return''.

Oak's Letter

'''Oak's Letter''' (Japanese: '''オーキドのてがみ''' ''Okido's Letter'') is a [[Key Item|Key]] [[event item]] available in {{game|Platinum}}. It is the third of the four [[event item]]s in the Sinnoh-based games, preceded in its distribution by the {{gdis|Secret Key|IV}} and [[Member Card]], and followed by the unreleased [[Azure Flute]].

===Effect===
====Passive effect====
Once this item has been received from the deliveryman at the [[Poké Mart]] (modifying the save file to directly add Oak's Letter to the Bag will not affect the flag responsible for activating the event), [[Professor Oak]] of [[Kanto]] will be waiting for the {{player}} on his or her next visit to {{rt|224|Sinnoh}}, at the northernmost, barren end of it. He will explain to the player that the white rock there is present for a person to note what they are most thankful for, and on inspection of it, the player will be able to enter whatever they may desire (the entry system is the same as that for Pokémon nicknames). After this has been done, the [[Seabreak Path]] will appear, and a {{p|Shaymin}} will come down from it before returning north to the [[Flower Paradise]], where it can be caught at level 30.

==In the manga==
[[File:Oak's Letter Adventures.png|thumb|200px|Oak's Letter in Pokémon Adventures]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Oak's Letter was first shown in ''[[PS429|Dealing with Dragonite]]''. It was featured again ''[[PS430|Unplugging Rotom (Heat, Wash, Mow, Fan, Frost)]]'', where [[Marley]] used the instructions written to it by {{adv|Professor Oak}} to locate {{p|Shaymin}}, so that she could ask it to help her in the final battle against [[Team Galactic]]. Full contents of the letter were later revealed in ''[[PS440|The Final Dimensional Duel X]]''.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* Even though the {{p|Shaymin}} residing at the Flower Paradise is caught from the wild, its status screen will always display it as having been met in a [[fateful encounter]].
** This is likely because only fateful encounter Shaymin can become {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Shaymin|Sky Forme}} and allow the player to receive the [[Gracidea]] in the first place.
* Although Oak's Letter is present in the game data for {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, the item was never distributed for those games by Nintendo.
** A Shaymin could be caught on those games by acquiring Oak's Letter via [[cheating]], but, due to the fact that {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} does not apply the [[fateful encounter]] flag, it would never be able to achieve its Sky Forme.
* Despite Oak's Letter only being distributed for Pokémon Platinum, the Wonder Card for the [[List of American region Nintendo Network event Pokémon distributions in Generation VI#Shaymin|Pokémon 20th Anniversary Shaymin]] states that, "With a special letter, Shaymin could first be encountered in the Flower Paradise of Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl."
* [[Marley]] will speak to the player differently with the Oak's Letter event activated.

Talk:Ten Carat Hill

2017-01-29T23:43:23Z

ShadyCharacter: /* Necrozma */

==Connecting Locations==

Is it really safe to assume that Hau'oli City is actually directly to the south of Ten Carat Hill? The fact that the demo has a man guide you from the north end of Hau'oli City to the south end of Ten Carat Hill in the demo does not necessarily indicate that the two locations are actually directly connected, and could in fact be meant to compensate for the two locations being farther apart in the final game. —[[User:AndyPKMN|AndyPKMN]] [[User talk:AndyPKMN|(talk)]] 22:13, 18 October 2016 (UTC)
:It should do for now. ''For now'', it's basically true. When the full game is out and we know where it ''really'' is, then yes, it should be based on that instead. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 22:27, 18 October 2016 (UTC)
::Well I can add here that the name Ten Carat Hill is most likely based on {{wp|Diamond Head, Hawaii|Diamond Head}} by the name alone. I know that it is not enough to establish the connection until we get the full game, but I believe that this is the case for this area. If this is on Melemele Island, then there isn't a doubt in my mind of this connection.—[[User:Naui|Naui]] ([[User talk:Naui|talk]]) 01:12, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

== Necrozma ==

Necrozma can be obtained here. How should this be represented? [[User:Kidburla|Kidburla]] ([[User talk:Kidburla|talk]]) 17:35, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
:On a similar note, I believe that [[Sableye#Game locations|Sableye]] can be obtained here, yet its encounter rate is not listed. (So sorry that this does not help with the first point, but it seemed to be in the same vein and I hope that they can share a section!) [[User:Erythro|Erythro]] ([[User talk:Erythro|talk]]) 15:44, 2 December 2016 (UTC)
::Sableye is apparently only called by Carbink in [[SOS Battle]]s. I never encountered one directly. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 16:51, 2 December 2016 (UTC)
:::Maybe they could be represented in a similar manner to the "Special Pokémon" and "[[Horde Encounter]]" sections of the Pokémon tables? Something like this?

{{Catch/header/dn|land}}
{{Catch/div|land|Special Pokémon}}
{{Catch/entry7|800|Necrozma|yes|yes|Grass|75|all={{tt|One|What makes it appear}}|type1=Psychic|alliesna=N/A}}
{{Catch/footer|land}}
{{Catch/header|cave|no}}
{{Catch/div|cave|{{color2|000|SOS Battle}}}}
{{Catch/entry7|302|Sableye|yes|yes|{{color2|000|SOS Battle|SOS Encounter}}|???|all=??? called by Carbink|type1=Dark|type2=Ghost}}
{{Catch/footer|cave}}

:::Edit: SOS Battle specific encounters have been solved; we now have a different table template for Gen 7 encounters, hence the bottom table is broken (top table has been updated as it is still an issue). [[User:Jaxon|Jaxon]] ([[User talk:Jaxon|talk]]) 16:58, 3 December 2016 (UTC)

:::[[User:Jaxon|Jaxon]] ([[User talk:Jaxon|talk]]) 03:22, 3 December 2016 (UTC)

::::Friend, Thank you for the information! I am glad to see that Sableye has been added; would you happen to know whether encounter-rates will be put up for those Pokémon that are only called in SOS battles? (Something tells me that Sableye's being called by Carbink is rarer than Carbink's, but I could be wrong.) Also, your table for Necrozma looks very good. [[User:Erythro|Erythro]] ([[User talk:Erythro|talk]]) 21:46, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
:::::We don't currently know the rates at which possible allies are called. We have the slots, but not the rate at which each slot is called. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 03:39, 4 December 2016 (UTC)
::::::Do we have an approximate rate that Necrozma appears? I was nearly sure that I had missed something, since it took me at least 20 tries to find it. [[User:ShadyCharacter|ShadyCharacter]] ([[User talk:ShadyCharacter|talk]]) 23:43, 29 January 2017 (UTC)

== Transferable rewards ==

In the [[Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon Special Demo Version|Demo Version]] there is an [[Ace Trainer (Trainer class)|Ace Trainer]] who only battles you after you have beaten every other trainer in the area. After beating this Ace Trainer, she gives you a reward that you can transfer to the [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|main games]]. As I am not sure as to what she gives you (I seem to remember it was 3 [[Valuable item#Stardust|Stardust]], but as I said, I'm not certain of this). I won't be adding this information myself, but if someone knows what she gives you, it would be nice to have it added to the page.

[[User:Jaxon|Jaxon]] ([[User talk:Jaxon|talk]]) 14:08, 4 December 2016 (UTC)
:It's a Star Piece. It was on the Demo Version's page, but it seems it didn't end up here. I've fixed it now. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 14:16, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

== Jangmo-o Sprite ==
In the trainer section for the [[Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon Special Demo Version|Demo Version]] for the information on [[Ace Trainer (Trainer class)|Ace Trainer]] Sheri's party the sprite for her Jangmo-o displays as Hakamo-o's sprite, this seems to the be the only instance of this (at least on this page) and I checked the edit page to see if I could fix it but it looks like it has something to do with the metadata/template for it. Can someone with more experience than me look into that? {{unsigned|Theapathyimp}}

== Spinda ==

Either I've been truly unlucky, or Spinda doesn't appear in the top left grass patch in the Farthest Hollow. Can anyone confirm ? [[User:Geographik0903|Geographik0903]] ([[User talk:Geographik0903|talk]]) 02:07, 17 December 2016 (UTC)
:I've had what I would call some pretty bad luck while searching for some Pokemon I wouldn't think would be terribly hard to find. It should be there, though. Just keep trying. How much have you tried? Have you kept any exact track? [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 02:11, 17 December 2016 (UTC)
::I didn't keep track, but as soon as I went to the patch under, a Spinda attacked me instantly. It's hard to tell since the Rotom Map doesn't show the exact spot because this is, technically, a cave ? (Does it mean Dusk Balls have higher chances? Even though the sky clearly shows up) [[User:Geographik0903|Geographik0903]] ([[User talk:Geographik0903|talk]]) 02:37, 17 December 2016 (UTC)
:::Just because it doesn't show on the map doesn't make it a cave really.
:::Something like that, where if you just got jumped by a Spinda as soon as you switched, that's pure luck. If you really want, if you keep wandering around the other field, it should show up fine. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 03:04, 17 December 2016 (UTC)

== Island Scan ==

Are we sure that Deino can be encountered in the grass? I looked for quite a while and it never showed up, whereas it appeared very easily in the cave. Normally Island Scan Pokémon seem to be quite common. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 10:57, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
:[[Special:Diff/2549264|I guess we're not]], so I've removed it from there. (German wiki also says cave only.) [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 18:23, 11 January 2017 (UTC)

Talk:Alola

2016-12-05T18:30:31Z

ShadyCharacter: /* Regional Villains */

== Alola an island chain? ==

Looking at the image of Alola it only looks like one island, and I was thinking due to Hawaii being an archipelago we'd see more than just that one island, which I assume is only the starting area. So I was wondering whether we should wait until we get confirmation before we use the image. [[User:Ashitic|Ashitic]] ([[User talk:Ashitic|talk]]) 16:20, 11 May 2016 (UTC)
:We know the image is of at least part of Alola, and it's also not confirmed that there are any additional areas, so for now, the image is fine. When Unova and Kalos were first revealed, we used the images of Castelia and Lumiose because those were the only images we had. --[[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] ([[User talk:Abcboy|talk]]) 16:38, 11 May 2016 (UTC)

==Two Smaller Islands?==

Shouldn't we point out the slightly smaller islands other than the big four and the artificial one?[[User:Lionasad|Lionasad]] ([[User talk:Lionasad|talk]]) 11:19, 3 June 2016 (UTC)

:There are a couple assumptions in that statement. We only intend to add confirmed (certain) Sun/Moon info. In short: we're going to wait on more (and English) info. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 02:07, 6 June 2016 (UTC)

== Guardian Pokemon ==

the gameplay at E3 mentions that there are guardian pokemon for each island, and that there is a festival(s) held for them. Should we add this info now?[[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 06:53, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

We need more info about it before we can say for sure. And we don't even know if Tapu Koko is a Pokémon or not. [[User:Chomper4|Chomper4]] ([[User talk:Chomper4|talk]]) 13:00, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

::How much more info do you need to say that each island has a guardian pokemon? also what/who is Tapu Koko?[[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 04:56, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
:::Tapu Koko is one of the guardian Pokemon, according to what the characters say. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 07:21, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

::I agree we should mention the Islands Guardian Pokémon, but I believe we should refrain from giving them names. Tapu Koko may very well be an epithet, title or alias for the Pokémon. After all, there are no Pokémon with divided names. Pokémon with hyphenated names, yes (Ho-oh); Pokémon with titles, yes (Guardian of Time, etc.); but none that I can remember (unless you want to include Pokémon with alternate forms or Mega evolutions) have two names.([[User:Shadoguardian|Shadoguardian]] ([[User talk:Shadoguardian|talk]]) 07:31, 20 June 2016 (UTC))
:::Agreed, plus Tapu Koko translates to "Sacred+Blood" so it sounds more like an epithet than it's actual name.[[User:Animaltamer7|Animaltamer7]]08:29, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

== Division by Island Name ==

The name of the first island was released today, Melemele Island, so I was wondering if, after the other island names are released, new pages are made for each island. [[User:Srushj11|Srushj11]] ([[User talk:Srushj11|talk]]) 18:44, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
:We don't know enough about them yet to say. It might be reasonable to split the islands off into separate articles, or they might work more organically as subsections of the Alola page. It just depends on what the situation is after the game's released and we know everything. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 18:48, 1 July 2016 (UTC)

Team Skull as regional villains? I know that the English name is still up for debate. But that's not stopped us before.

{{Unknown name}}
[[File:Gligar Razor Fang.png|thumb|200px|Ash's {{AP|Gligar|Gliscor}} reaching for the Razor Fang Ash tossed]]
An '''evolution-inducing held item''' is an item which makes the Pokémon holding it [[Evolution|evolve]] when a certain event happens, such as if the Pokémon is [[trade]]d or leveled up. The item disappears once the Pokémon has evolved. For evolution-inducing items that are not meant to be held, see the page on [[evolutionary stone]]s.

==In the anime==
Many evolution items have appeared in the anime. The first one to appear was the King's Rock in ''[[EP194|Ring Masters]]'', which {{Ash}} won in the [[Sumo Conference]] and {{an|Misty}}'s {{p|Poliwhirl}} later used to evolve itself into a {{TP|Misty|Politoed}} in ''[[EP247|Outrageous Fortunes]]''. Another King's Rock appeared in ''[[EP260|A Crowning Achievement]]'', which was found on a rock after the water level in the local river dropped dramatically; [[Alice Telesu|Alice]]'s {{p|Slowpoke}} used it to evolve into a {{p|Slowking}}.

A Deep Sea Scale and Deep Sea Tooth appeared in ''[[AG095|The Evolutionary War]]'' where the people in the [[A-B-C Islands]] were having an argument over which Pokémon was best, {{p|Gorebyss}} or {{p|Huntail}}.

A King's Rock, two Deep Sea Teeth, and two Deep Sea Scales appeared in ''[[AG112|Showdown At Linoone]]'' as some of the items {{DL|Kimmy Shoney|Tokin}} {{a|Pickup|picked up}}.

In ''[[DP038|One Big Happiny Family!]]'', {{an|Brock}} carved and made an Oval Stone for his newly born {{p|Happiny}}, which later helped her evolve into a {{TP|Brock|Chansey}} in ''[[DP190|The Brockster is In]]''.

In ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear with Fear!]]'', Ash got a Razor Fang from [[Gary Oak]] that he used to evolve his {{p|Gligar}} into a {{AP|Gliscor}}.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
In ''[[PS108|Quilava Quandary]]'', {{adv|Gold}} was given a King's Rock by the [[Day-Care Couple]] after training with them, which he gave to his {{p|Poliwag}} to hold. In ''[[PS109|Ampharos Amore]]'', Gold's newly evolved {{p|Poliwhirl}} and {{adv|Silver}}'s {{p|Seadra}} evolved into a [[Polibo|Politoed]] and a {{p|Kingdra}}, respectively, while holding their respective evolutionary items, King's Rock and Dragon Scale.

In ''[[PS394|Yikes, Yanmega! II]]'', {{adv|Diamond|Dia}}'s {{p|Lickilicky}}, Kit, used a Protector to protect itself from [[Mars]]'s {{p|Yanmega}} swarm's soundwaves. [[Roseanne]] later revealed that the Protector was one of the items she used in her research of Pokémon Evolution, the other seen items being a Reaper Cloth, Dragon Scale, Magmarizer, and King's Rock.

In ''[[PS445|Dealing With A Koffing Fit]]'', Silver's {{p|Sneasel}} evolved into a {{TP|Silver|Weavile}} due to having gained experience while holding a Razor Claw, which had been given to Silver by {{adv|Green}}.

In ''[[PS449|Raising the Stakes with Rhyperior]]'', it was revealed that Silver had given {{adv|Blue}} a Protector to be held by his {{p|Rhydon}}, allowing it to evolve into a {{TP|Blue|Rhyperior}} when it was traded between the two Trainers. Afterwards, Blue had let Silver keep Rhyperior as a replacement for his lost {{p|Ursaring}}.

==Trivia==
* In {{game|Black and White|s}}, the Prism Scale was incorrectly categorized in the [[Bag]] as a general item and not as an evolution-inducing held item. This was later fixed in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, but starting from {{g|X and Y}} it is now again incorrectly categorised, this time as a valuable item.
* Along with being listed amongst the [[evolutionary stone]]s, the Oval Stone has the "Use" option when selected in the Bag, but if the {{player}} tries to use it, it won't say "Able" under any Pokémon.
** This makes it the only evolutionary item with "Stone" in its English name which is not an evolutionary stone.

Evolution item

ShadyCharacter: /* Items that induce evolution upon trading */

{{Unknown name}}
[[File:Gligar Razor Fang.png|thumb|200px|Ash's {{AP|Gligar|Gliscor}} reaching for the Razor Fang Ash tossed]]
An '''evolution-inducing held item''' is an item which makes the Pokémon holding it [[Evolution|evolve]] when a certain event happens, such as if the Pokémon is [[trade]]d or leveled up. The item disappears once the Pokémon has evolved. For evolution-inducing items that are not meant to be held, see the page on [[evolutionary stone]]s.

==In the anime==
Many evolution items have appeared in the anime. The first one to appear was the King's Rock in ''[[EP194|Ring Masters]]'', which {{Ash}} won in the [[Sumo Conference]] and {{an|Misty}}'s {{p|Poliwhirl}} later used to evolve itself into a {{TP|Misty|Politoed}} in ''[[EP247|Outrageous Fortunes]]''. Another King's Rock appeared in ''[[EP260|A Crowning Achievement]]'', which was found on a rock after the water level in the local river dropped dramatically; [[Alice Telesu|Alice]]'s {{p|Slowpoke}} used it to evolve into a {{p|Slowking}}.

A Deep Sea Scale and Deep Sea Tooth appeared in ''[[AG095|The Evolutionary War]]'' where the people in the [[A-B-C Islands]] were having an argument over which Pokémon was best, {{p|Gorebyss}} or {{p|Huntail}}.

A King's Rock, two Deep Sea Teeth, and two Deep Sea Scales appeared in ''[[AG112|Showdown At Linoone]]'' as some of the items {{DL|Kimmy Shoney|Tokin}} {{a|Pickup|picked up}}.

In ''[[DP038|One Big Happiny Family!]]'', {{an|Brock}} carved and made an Oval Stone for his newly born {{p|Happiny}}, which later helped her evolve into a {{TP|Brock|Chansey}} in ''[[DP190|The Brockster is In]]''.

In ''[[DP085|Fighting Fear with Fear!]]'', Ash got a Razor Fang from [[Gary Oak]] that he used to evolve his {{p|Gligar}} into a {{AP|Gliscor}}.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
In ''[[PS108|Quilava Quandary]]'', {{adv|Gold}} was given a King's Rock by the [[Day-Care Couple]] after training with them, which he gave to his {{p|Poliwag}} to hold. In ''[[PS109|Ampharos Amore]]'', Gold's newly evolved {{p|Poliwhirl}} and {{adv|Silver}}'s {{p|Seadra}} evolved into a [[Polibo|Politoed]] and a {{p|Kingdra}}, respectively, while holding their respective evolutionary items, King's Rock and Dragon Scale.

In ''[[PS394|Yikes, Yanmega! II]]'', {{adv|Diamond|Dia}}'s {{p|Lickilicky}}, Kit, used a Protector to protect itself from [[Mars]]'s {{p|Yanmega}} swarm's soundwaves. [[Roseanne]] later revealed that the Protector was one of the items she used in her research of Pokémon Evolution, the other seen items being a Reaper Cloth, Dragon Scale, Magmarizer, and King's Rock.

In ''[[PS445|Dealing With A Koffing Fit]]'', Silver's {{p|Sneasel}} evolved into a {{TP|Silver|Weavile}} due to having gained experience while holding a Razor Claw, which had been given to Silver by {{adv|Green}}.

In ''[[PS449|Raising the Stakes with Rhyperior]]'', it was revealed that Silver had given {{adv|Blue}} a Protector to be held by his {{p|Rhydon}}, allowing it to evolve into a {{TP|Blue|Rhyperior}} when it was traded between the two Trainers. Afterwards, Blue had let Silver keep Rhyperior as a replacement for his lost {{p|Ursaring}}.

==Trivia==
* In {{game|Black and White|s}}, the Prism Scale was incorrectly categorized in the [[Bag]] as a general item and not as an evolution-inducing held item. This was later fixed in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, but starting from {{g|X and Y}} it is now again incorrectly categorised, this time as a valuable item.
* Along with being listed amongst the [[evolutionary stone]]s, the Oval Stone has the "Use" option when selected in the Bag, but if the {{player}} tries to use it, it won't say "Able" under any Pokémon.
** This makes it the only evolutionary item with "Stone" in its English name which is not an evolutionary stone.

Shouldn't more information be added to this article about catching shinies with the Radar? - [[User:MrWho|MrWho]] 17:16, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
:Well, Pokémon Wiki has its own article on Poké Radar chaning... '''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 09:57, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

== It said chainning didn't help catch shinys... ==

http://youtube.com/user/shinyhunter disagrees, but I settled for putting in a citation needed instead.
--[[User:Scwizard|Scwizard]] 07:15, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
:Well, it may not. I honestly don't know myself. However I do know that if it's ALWAYS 1/8192, finding 8192 wild Pokémon will likely result in you finding at least one shiny. '''[[User:TTEchidna|TTE]][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 10:55, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

This isn't true. You will have a 1/8,192 chance of a shiny each time, not all together.--[[User:William slattery|William slattery]] ([[User talk:William slattery|talk]]) 10:48, 21 December 2012 (UTC)

--[[User:Scwizard|Scwizard]] 00:03, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

== Chains ==

Unless it's just my crappy luck, catching Pokemon doesn't always continue a chain; usually it works only half the time. Similarly, most of my chains consist of three or four Pokemon (five at the most, so far), even with the help of Max Repels, before encountering an entirely new species (ie, four Bagons, then Machop). The article is very misleading in that, unless it's just my own interpretation, it almost guarantees you'll encounter Bagon after Bagon after Bagon until you do something to break the chain rather than chains simply ending on their own like what has happened to me on more than several occasions. I would alter the article myself, but I would like to listen to the comments of others first. // [[User:Szayel Aporro|'''''SzayelAporro''''']] 21:14, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
:The method itself is not wrong - it has been proven through lots of testing. However, I think there are some subtleties to continuing the chain that need to be made more clear. --[[User:Fabu-Vinny|FabuVinny]] [[User talk:Fabu-Vinny|T]]-[[Special:Contributions/Fabu-Vinny|C]]-[[User:Fabu-Vinny/Sandbox|S]] 21:23, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

is that ''it''? im talkin bout using the radar, how it improves the chances! [[Image:491.png|45px 45px]][[User:Kpokefan|'''K''']][[User talk:Kpokefan|'''P''']][[User:Kpokefan/Missions|'''F''']] 00:09, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

By using the radar and building a chain, your odds of finding a shiny pokemon increases to about .5%(1 in 200) at 40 pokemon chained, way better than 1 in 8192. So if you really want shiny pokemon, the radar is the way to go. There are still pokemon that you can't get with the radar though, for those pokemon you're stuck at 1 in 8192.

Theoretically, you couldn't chain over 40 because at 41 the formula divides by 0, and beyond 41 you have negative percentages. However I've seen various accounts of people chaining above 40, so it is possible.
[[User:Resolver13|Resolver13]] 21:31, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
:Yeah, the formula caps, so if Nc > 40, Nc = 40 --[[User:Phred|Phred]] 01:00, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

I've seen this come up: "''The grassy patch remained silent...''" When does that occur? [[User:Ht14|''ht'']][[User talk:Ht14|''14'']] 04:11, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
:When there are no Pokemon who are tracked by the Poke Radar. For example, there are usually 4 patches of grass, usually north, south, east and west of you. However, let's say you're in a small patch of grass and there's no space to place the patches of moving grass. You're screwed. This can occur during chains but doesn't break the chain, all one has to do with walk the 50 steps and redo the Radar. '''[[User:Optimatum|<sc>Θρtιmαtum♏</sc>]][[User talk:Optimatum|Talk]]|[[User:Optimatum/sig/Pikachu|Links]] 06:31, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

== Formula Origin ==

I am ''quite'' intrigued by this formula: where exactly did it come from? I'm saying this because the results are not even near "round" numbers, though that's not the main reason(if I were a game designer, I'd prefer "non-round" probability numbers, too). I'm just curious: how does one determine such a... complex formula like that? -- [[User:Pro-mole|Professional Mole]] ([[User talk:Pro-mole|Talk here]]) 00:35, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
:Actually the bottom number 2621440 = 40 * 2^16 so it is more or less a round number, in computer terms. Not sure about the top number, 14747. Often odd numbers are one less than a round number (e.g. 65535) but I can't see anything with that one. --[[User:DisgruntledGoat|DisgruntledGoat]] 22:47, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

== Full Japanese name for Poké Radar Key Item ==

According to the main article, it separates the name into "Poké Tore".
Does anyone else believe that the "Tore" in the name is just a shorthand version of "Tracer"?

If the above is correct, the name will then fully extend to "Pocket Monster Tracer".

- HechEff, 2008/01/07, 0655 (+0000 GMT)

:True, but it is translated through the games into English as Poké Radar, so this is the title we use. Thanks for your concern, and next time use four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>) to sign your posts. It'll save you typing it out manually. — [[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|THE TROM]] — 19:41, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

: That I understand, but just thought I would mention it considering how many name changes were made during translation. And thank you for the tip regarding signatures. [[User:HechEff|HechEff]] 22:22, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

== Animation ==
Would it be possible for anyone to get an animation of the Poké Radar in use, and perhaps show the difference between grass shaking normally and grass shaking "more violently"? I don't know how to capture anything, or I'd do it myself. --[[User:Crystal_Shards|'''Crystal Shards''']] 17:27, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

== Something Interesting ==

I was just chaining Machop, when I walked into a patch that had another one, but as I walked into it my repel ran out and the Machop didn't show up. I had to walk off the patch and back on to it for it to work. I thought it should be mentioned. [[User:Dexington|Dexington]] 14:54, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

Yeah wow, i thought i was the first to find this, but someone a year ago found it apparently. I think it needs to be mentioned. I didn't have to walk off of the patch though, I simply changed my direction then my roselia showed up [[User:Malake256|Malake256]] 19:36, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

== Chaining without the Pokéradar? ==

I was ev training my speed in bell tower in the morning, so all i ran into was rattata. After going through about 38 of them i found a shiney rattata. Is it possible that the same chaining function comes in if you simply run into the same pokemon over and over?
[[User:Newops|Newops]] 01:40, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
:There's no effect like that with normal battles. It's just a flat 1/8192 chance that any individual Pokémon you encounter is shiny. Obviously the more of a particular Pokémon you encounter the more likely it is that ''one'' of them will be shiny, simply because you are taking that same chance repeatedly. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 19:27, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

:I know that this is an old topic, but I have an answer...

Lucas/Dawn only gives you a tutorial after you have received the Eevee from Bebe in Hearthome City. [[User:Tk3141|Tk3141]] 02:46, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

== Encounter rate ==

How does a chain affect the encounter rate? For example, while chaining Gastly in the Eterna Forest it took around 20 times of using the radar in order to find Gastly, but once I had a chain, I encountered about 10 of them in a row. Does having a chain increase the encounter rate of the chained Pokemon? If so, how much?

As an add-on, if this is true, what happens if, in the middle of a chain, the Pokemon stops being available (i.e. something like chaining Hoothoot starting at 2:59 am)? The same question applies for swarms (starting a chain at 11:59 pm and continuing past midnight) and roaming pokemon. If a roaming pokemon is encountered and defeated while using the radar, could a "chain" start? I ask this question with the possibly flawed assumption that (a) Roamers can be found with the Poké Radar, and (b) the encounter rate of a defeated roamer could increase from zero (since the E4 would have to be defeated again) to a finite number (since I'm guessing that the encounter rate increases). [[User:Tk3141|Tk3141]] 18:12, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
:I tested this with a swarm in Platinum. At about 11:50, I started a chain of Larvitar, and even after midnight I was still able to find it. I'm going to change this page. [[User:Tk3141|Tk3141]] 12:17, 13 April 2012 (UTC)

==The Right Side?==
OK, literally EVERY time I move to the right side to go to a shaking patch, the chain gets broken. Is this just bad luck? :( [[User:KyuremsIceBlade|KyuremsIceBlade]] ([[User talk:KyuremsIceBlade|talk]]) 01:21, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

==Clarification==
"Patches that shake more violently than others are often rarer Pokémon"--I think this sentence needs to be made much clearer. I have no idea what "more violently" means, and from the sound of it, Crystal_Shards doesn't understand what this was supposed to mean, either. There are three grass animations: The grass "glistens" and shakes quickly for a brief period, the grass shakes more slowly for a longer period, or it glistens for a long period (the shiny animation). Which of the first two results in rarer Pokémon, and could someone update the article with a clearer definition of the grass animations? [[User:Xelrog T. Apocalypse|- Xelrog T.

Shouldn't more information be added to this article about catching shinies with the Radar? - [[User:MrWho|MrWho]] 17:16, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
:Well, Pokémon Wiki has its own article on Poké Radar chaning... '''[[User:TTEchidna|T]][[User talk:TTEchidna|T]][[wp:Echidna|Echidna]]''' 09:57, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

== It said chainning didn't help catch shinys... ==

http://youtube.com/user/shinyhunter disagrees, but I settled for putting in a citation needed instead.
--[[User:Scwizard|Scwizard]] 07:15, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
:Well, it may not. I honestly don't know myself. However I do know that if it's ALWAYS 1/8192, finding 8192 wild Pokémon will likely result in you finding at least one shiny. '''[[User:TTEchidna|TTE]][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 10:55, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

== Chains ==

Unless it's just my crappy luck, catching Pokemon doesn't always continue a chain; usually it works only half the time. Similarly, most of my chains consist of three or four Pokemon (five at the most, so far), even with the help of Max Repels, before encountering an entirely new species (ie, four Bagons, then Machop). The article is very misleading in that, unless it's just my own interpretation, it almost guarantees you'll encounter Bagon after Bagon after Bagon until you do something to break the chain rather than chains simply ending on their own like what has happened to me on more than several occasions. I would alter the article myself, but I would like to listen to the comments of others first. // [[User:Szayel Aporro|'''''SzayelAporro''''']] 21:14, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
:The method itself is not wrong - it has been proven through lots of testing.

By using the radar and building a chain, your odds of finding a shiny pokemon increases to about .5%(1 in 200) at 40 pokemon chained, way better than 1 in 8192. So if you really want shiny pokemon, the radar is the way to go. There are still pokemon that you can't get with the radar though, for those pokemon you're stuck at 1 in 8192.

Theoretically, you couldn't chain over 40 because at 41 the formula divides by 0, and beyond 41 you have negative percentages. However I've seen various accounts of people chaining above 40, so it is possible.
[[User:Resolver13|Resolver13]] 21:31, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

:When there are no Pokemon who are tracked by the Poke Radar. For example, there are usually 4 patches of grass, usually north, south, east and west of you. However, let's say you're in a small patch of grass and there's no space to place the patches of moving grass. You're screwed. This can occur during chains but doesn't break the chain, all one has to do with walk the 50 steps and redo the Radar.

== Formula Origin ==

I am ''quite'' intrigued by this formula: where exactly did it come from? I'm saying this because the results are not even near "round" numbers, though that's not the main reason(if I were a game designer, I'd prefer "non-round" probability numbers, too). I'm just curious: how does one determine such a... complex formula like that? -- [[User:Pro-mole|Professional Mole]] ([[User talk:Pro-mole|Talk here]]) 00:35, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
:Actually the bottom number 2621440 = 40 * 2^16 so it is more or less a round number, in computer terms. Not sure about the top number, 14747. Often odd numbers are one less than a round number (e.g. 65535) but I can't see anything with that one. --[[User:DisgruntledGoat|DisgruntledGoat]] 22:47, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

== Full Japanese name for Poké Radar Key Item ==

According to the main article, it separates the name into "Poké Tore".
Does anyone else believe that the "Tore" in the name is just a shorthand version of "Tracer"?

If the above is correct, the name will then fully extend to "Pocket Monster Tracer".

- HechEff, 2008/01/07, 0655 (+0000 GMT)

:True, but it is translated through the games into English as Poké Radar, so this is the title we use. Thanks for your concern, and next time use four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>) to sign your posts. It'll save you typing it out manually. — [[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|THE TROM]] — 19:41, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

== Animation ==
Would it be possible for anyone to get an animation of the Poké Radar in use, and perhaps show the difference between grass shaking normally and grass shaking "more violently"? I don't know how to capture anything, or I'd do it myself. --[[User:Crystal_Shards|'''Crystal Shards''']] 17:27, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

== Something Interesting ==

I was just chaining Machop, when I walked into a patch that had another one, but as I walked into it my repel ran out and the Machop didn't show up. I had to walk off the patch and back on to it for it to work. I thought it should be mentioned. [[User:Dexington|Dexington]] 14:54, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

Yeah wow, i thought i was the first to find this, but someone a year ago found it apparently. I think it needs to be mentioned. I didn't have to walk off of the patch though, I simply changed my direction then my roselia showed up [[User:Malake256|Malake256]] 19:36, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

== Chaining without the Pokéradar? ==

I was ev training my speed in bell tower in the morning, so all i ran into was rattata. After going through about 38 of them i found a shiney rattata. Is it possible that the same chaining function comes in if you simply run into the same pokemon over and over?
[[User:Newops|Newops]] 01:40, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
:There's no effect like that with normal battles. It's just a flat 1/8192 chance that any individual Pokémon you encounter is shiny. Obviously the more of a particular Pokémon you encounter the more likely it is that ''one'' of them will be shiny, simply because you are taking that same chance repeatedly.

== Encounter rate ==

How does a chain affect the encounter rate? For example, while chaining Gastly in the Eterna Forest it took around 20 times of using the radar in order to find Gastly, but once I had a chain, I encountered about 10 of them in a row. Does having a chain increase the encounter rate of the chained Pokemon? If so, how much?

As an add-on, if this is true, what happens if, in the middle of a chain, the Pokemon stops being available (i.e. something like chaining Hoothoot starting at 2:59 am)? The same question applies for swarms (starting a chain at 11:59 pm and continuing past midnight) and roaming pokemon. If a roaming pokemon is encountered and defeated while using the radar, could a "chain" start? I ask this question with the possibly flawed assumption that (a) Roamers can be found with the Poké Radar, and (b) the encounter rate of a defeated roamer could increase from zero (since the E4 would have to be defeated again) to a finite number (since I'm guessing that the encounter rate increases). [[User:Tk3141|Tk3141]] 18:12, 9 April 2012 (UTC)
:I tested this with a swarm in Platinum. At about 11:50, I started a chain of Larvitar, and even after midnight I was still able to find it. I'm going to change this page. [[User:Tk3141|Tk3141]] 12:17, 13 April 2012 (UTC)

==The Right Side?==
OK, literally EVERY time I move to the right side to go to a shaking patch, the chain gets broken. Is this just bad luck? :( [[User:KyuremsIceBlade|KyuremsIceBlade]] ([[User talk:KyuremsIceBlade|talk]]) 01:21, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

==Clarification==
"Patches that shake more violently than others are often rarer Pokémon"--I think this sentence needs to be made much clearer. I have no idea what "more violently" means, and from the sound of it, Crystal_Shards doesn't understand what this was supposed to mean, either. There are three grass animations: The grass "glistens" and shakes quickly for a brief period, the grass shakes more slowly for a longer period, or it glistens for a long period (the shiny animation). Which of the first two results in rarer Pokémon, and could someone update the article with a clearer definition of the grass animations? [[User:Xelrog T. Apocalypse|- Xelrog T.

It's usually considered a good idea to use single-letter variables where possible. With that in mind, here's a better LaTeX formula for the probability:
