[[File:Terastal phenomenon.png|thumb|300px|{{ga|Juliana}} Terastallizing {{p|Eevee}} into a {{t|Normal}} [[type]]]]
The '''Terastal phenomenon''' or '''Terastallization''' (Japanese: '''テラスタル''' ''Terastal'') is a temporary transformation affecting {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that was introduced during [[Generation IX]], in {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}. It [[Type change|changes the type]] of a Pokémon into its Tera Type and grants it a crystallized appearance. Terastallization has also appeared in the {{spin-off games|spin-off game}} {{g|Masters EX}}, as well as in the [[side series]] title {{g|Champions}}.

==Etymology==
The name "Terastal" likely derives from the Japanese word '''照らす''' ''terasu'' (to illuminate; to shine) and the English word ''crystal''. It may also be derived from the prefix ''tera-'', possibly in reference to previously introduced temporary transformation mechanics, [[Gigantamax]] and [[Mega Evolution]], which are named after subsequent {{wp|SI prefixes}}.

==Terminology==
The following are terms related to this game mechanic.
* '''Terastal phenomenon''' or '''Terastallization''' (Japanese: '''テラスタル''' ''Terastal'') is the transformation.
* '''Terastallize''' (Japanese: '''テラスタルする''' ''Terastallize'') is the related verb for this transformation.
* '''Tera Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''テラスタルポケモン''' ''Terastal Pokémon''), also known as '''Terastallized Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''テラスタルしたポケモン''' ''Terastallized Pokémon''), are {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} affected by this transformation.
* '''Terastallized state''' (Japanese: '''テラスタルした姿''' ''Terastallized appearance'') refers to the crystallized appearance of a Pokémon after Terastallizing. Two Pokémon ({{p|Ogerpon}} and {{p|Terapagos}}) have unique Terastallized states that further change their appearance.
* '''[[Terastal energy]]''' (Japanese: '''テラスタルエネルギー''' ''Terastal energy'') is the energy involved in this transformation.
* The '''[[#Tera Type|Tera Type]]''' (Japanese: '''テラスタイプ''' ''Teras Type'') is the [[type]] of the Terastallized Pokémon.
* The '''[[#Tera Jewels|Tera Jewel]]''' (Japanese: '''テラスタルジュエル''' ''Terastal Jewel'') is the jewel on top of the head of a Terastallized Pokémon.
* The '''[[Tera Orb]]''' (Japanese: '''テラスタルオーブ''' ''Terastal Orb'') is the [[Key Item]] that allows a Pokémon to Terastallize.
* A '''[[Tera Shard]]''' (Japanese: '''テラピース''' ''Tera Piece'') is an [[:Category:Tera Shards|item]] that changes a Pokémon's Tera Type. There are 19 Tera Shards, one for each type, including the {{t|Stellar}} type.
* A '''[[Tera Raid Battle]]''' (Japanese: '''テラレイドバトル''' ''Tera Raid Battle'') is a kind of [[Pokémon battle]] in which four [[Pokémon Trainer]]s battle a {{pkmn2|wild}} Tera Pokémon.
* '''{{form|Terapagos|Terastal Form}}''' (Japanese: '''テラスタルフォーム''' ''Terastal Form'') is a form taken in battle by Terapagos through its Tera Shift Ability.
* There are two [[move]]s related to this phenomenon:
** '''{{m|Tera Blast}}''' (Japanese: '''テラバースト''' ''Tera Burst'') is a move that changes its type to match the user's Tera Type.
** '''{{m|Tera Starstorm}}''' (Japanese: '''テラクラスター''' ''Tera Cluster'') is Terapagos's [[signature move]]. It becomes Stellar-type when Terapagos changes into its {{form|Terapagos|Stellar Form}}.
* There are three {{Abilities}} [[Signature Ability|exclusive]] to Terapagos related to this phenomenon:
** '''{{a|Tera Shift}}''' (Japanese: '''テラスチェンジ''' ''Tera Change'') is {{form|Terapagos|Normal Form}} Terapagos' Ability. It causes Terapagos to change into its Terastal Form when it enters battle.
** '''{{a|Tera Shell}}''' (Japanese: '''テラスシェル''' ''Tera Shell'') is Terastal Form Terapagos' Ability. It causes all [[damage]]-dealing moves to become [[Type#Type effectiveness|not very effective]] on Terapagos while its [[HP]] is full.
** '''{{a|Teraform Zero}}''' (Japanese: '''ゼロフォーミング''' ''Zero-Forming'') is exclusive Stellar Form Terapagos' Ability. It negates all effects of [[weather]] and [[terrain]].

Some examples of in-game dialogue from {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}:
* ''"When it is charged with energy, it can be used to cause Pokémon to '''Terastallize'''."'' (excerpt from the description of [[Tera Orb]])
* ''"If the user has '''Terastallized''', it unleashes energy of its '''Tera Type'''."'' (excerpt from the description of {{m|Tera Blast}})
* ''"If an opponent’s Pokémon '''Terastallizes''' during battle... observe a Pokémon's '''Tera Jewel''' closely to see which type it has become!"'' ([[Hassel]])
* ''"'''Terastallizing''' gives a real boost, see!"'' ([[Nemona]])

==Tera Jewels==
Tera Jewels are large crystal crowns that form atop a Tera {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}'s head. Each Tera Type possesses a different Tera Jewel to represent it, which contains two basic structures: the crown band that acts as the Tera Jewel's base, and the gem that stands above the band. Save for the {{t|Stellar}} type, each Tera Jewel's base has a hexagonal crystal on the front, with a pair of angry-looking eyes on it.

===Unique Terastallized states===
Some Pokémon species have unique Terastallized states which change their appearance significantly upon Terastallizing, beyond the standard crystallized appearance of Terastallization. Additionally, the Pokémon's [[Ability]] changes after Terastallization. There is no official name for this class of Terastallized state. Unlike other Pokémon, the few ones with a unique Terastallized state are the only ones which cannot have their Tera Types changed in [[Treasure Eatery]].

{{p|Ogerpon}} and {{p|Terapagos}} are the only Pokémon known to have their own distinct Terastallized states. Ogerpon's Tera Type changes depending on the mask that it is currently holding. While Ogerpon's Terastallized states are not recognized as separate forms in the [[Pokédex]], Terapagos's Terastallized state is uniquely recognized as its Stellar Form.

===History===
[[File:Disc Pokémon.png|250px|thumb|A sketch of {{form|Terapagos|Stellar Form}} {{ga|Terapagos}} by [[Heath]]]]
{{spoilers}}
In a bygone era of the [[Paldea]] [[region]] 2,000,000 years prior to {{G|Scarlet and Violet}}, seismic shifts started to occur, said to have doomed {{p|Terapagos}} to extinction. Initially, the species was believed to have completly disappeared; however, it seems that {{Ga|Terapagos|one of them}} survived by changing the energy in its body into hard crystals and going into hibernation in [[Area Zero Underdepths]], becoming the source of [[Terastal energy]] and the originator of the Terastal phenomenon. Terapagos also has a strong connection to the {{t|Stellar}} [[type]], the unique, 19th type that appears to hold the power of every other known type, is only accessible through Terastallization, and is only found in Area Zero Underdepths.

During the [[Area Zero]] Expedition 200 years ago, in which a team travelled into the [[Great Crater of Paldea]] and into Area Zero, the writer and natural historian [[Heath]], strayed from the rest of the team and somehow found himself in the Area Zero Underdepths, where he encountered Terapagos in its {{Form|Terapagos|Stellar Form}}. Fascinated by the sight, he added it to the [[Scarlet Book]]{{Sup/9|S}}/[[Violet Book]]{{Sup/9|V}}, coined the Pokémon's name, and rightfully suspected it was the cause of Pokémon to shining brightly and crystallizing in Area Zero. Terastallization was discovered once again 140 years ago in the form of a Terastallized Pokémon in Area Zero. however, attempts to remove the Pokémon from the crater caused the light to disappear and it to transform back to normal.

Terastallization also occurs in [[Kitakami]] through to the [[Crystal Pool]], whose waters seem to have been infused in ancient times with [[Crystal Cluster|mysterious gems]], likely Terastal crystals brought from Paldea. {{Ga|Ogerpon}}'s human partner possessed the same type of crystals with him, having brought them from a foreign land. In Kitakami, he gave these gems to a mask-maker, who'd craft [[:Category:Masks|four masks]] for the man and Ogerpon to blend in with the other villagers during their [[Festival of Masks]]. Through these masks, Ogerpon can Terastallize itself at will without any outside source.

10 years prior ago, [[Professor Sada]]{{Sup/9|S}}/[[Professor Turo]]{{Sup/9|V}} began investigating the phenomenon, and discovered that the energy emitted from shining crystals in Area Zero is what triggers it. They also discover Terapagos slumbering in Area Zero Underdepths in the form of a crystal. The [[Tera Orb]]s were then created by the professor from the Terastal energy with support from [[Clavell|director Clavell]], allowing people to Terastallize their Pokémon outside of Area Zero. The Tera Orb was then shared to the [[Paldea League]] and [[Naranja Academy]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]{{sup/9|V}}, granting the [[Gym Leader]]s, the [[Elite Four]], the [[Champion]]-ranked {{pkmn|trainer}}s, and students to use Terastallization. At some point, the Terastal energy was used by the professor to also create a [[time machine]], bringing in [[Paradox Pokémon]] from the ancient past{{sup/9|S}}/distant future{{sup/9|V}} or [[Multiverse|parallel timelines]], including a pair of {{p|Koraidon}}{{sup/9|S}}/{{p|Miraidon}}{{sup/9|V}}, as well as to create an AI replica of themselves to help with their research. They also discovered and coined the name of the Stellar-type.<ref>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/news/new_tera_type/ A ''Nineteenth'' Tera Type Has Been Discovered! | Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet]</ref>

Prior to [[The Indigo Disk]], Terastallization started occurring in the grounds of [[Blueberry Academy]] in the [[Unova]] region as well thanks to the Terarium Core, a large sphere attatched to the roof of the [[Terarium]]. It was designed and maintained by professor [[Briar]], being filled with with a mixture of [[Paldea]]n soil and water from the Crystal Pool in Kitakami, allowing the students to use Terastallization. After the events of The Indigo Disk, crystals from the Area Zero underdepths were added to the mixture, allowing wild Pokémon to Terastallize into the Stellar type.

{{p|Glimmora}} and its pre-[[Evolution]] {{p|Glimmet}} seem to be somehow related to the Terastal phenomenon. The crystalline petals of Glimmora are said to resemble the Terastal crystals found Paldea. Many Glimmora and Glimmet can be found in Area Zero, the place where the phenomenon originated. Additionally, eight [[TM Material|Glimmet Crystal]]s are needed to make {{TM|171|Tera Blast}}, a move that changes its type when a Pokémon Terastallizes.{{endspoilers}}

===In battle===
[[Pokémon Trainer]]s who obtain a [[Tera Orb]] are able to use it to Terastallize their Pokémon, which makes a Tera Jewel appear above the Pokémon's head and causes the Pokémon's body to glisten like polished, faceted gemstones. This changes the Pokémon's defensive [[type]](s) to its Tera Type, removing all other types, but gives it a weakness to {{type|Stellar}} [[move]]s, which can only be used by Stellar-type Tera Pokémon. Terastallized Pokémon are identified by having "Tera" in front of their name.

While Terastallized, Pokémon receive [[STAB]] on moves matching their Tera Type, in addition to moves matching their original types. The original types are the types they had immediately before Terastallizing (taking type changes into account but ignoring {{m|Forest's Curse}}) or their base types if they were sent on the field while Terastallized. If the Pokémon's Tera Type is the same as one of its original types, moves of that type receive a ×2 damage boost instead of the usual ×1.5.<ref name="Terastal">[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/news/terastal_phenomenon/ Pokémon Shine and Glimmer Like Gems Thanks to the Terastal Phenomenon | Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet]</ref>

Terastallization takes [[priority]] over all moves.

During this time, {{a|Adaptability}} works only for the Tera Type (with ×1.5 becoming ×2, and ×2 becoming ×2.25). Additionally, moves of the Tera Type that have a [[base power]] below 60 are increased to 60 base power; this is checked for after {{a|Technician}}'s boost <ref>https://twitter.com/skittyve/status/1599911349764571137</ref>. The boost does not apply to [[multistrike move]]s or moves with increased [[priority]]. [[:Category:Moves that power up|Moves that increase in power]] (such as {{m|Rollout}}) are boosted if its base power would be below 60 when used, but moves with [[:Category:Moves that have variable power|variable power based on other factors]] (such as {{m|Water Spout}}) are not boosted, regardless of what its base power would be when used. Pokémon can only have one Tera Type. The move {{m|Tera Blast}} changes type to the Pokémon's innate Tera Type upon Terastallizing.<ref>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/news/master_terastal/ Master Using the Terastal Phenomenon in Battle! | Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet]</ref>

Tera Pokémon cannot have their type changed from moves and Abilities such as {{m|Soak}}, {{m|Double Shock}}, {{A|Imposter}}, {{a|Protean}}, or {{m|Transform}}. A Pokémon using {{m|Transform}} before Terastallizing will not copy its opponent's Tera Type and will instead keep its own.

Similar to [[Mega Evolution]], the Terastal phenomenon lasts until the battle ends or the Tera Pokémon faints. After being used once, the Tera Orb loses all its Terastal energy and has to be recharged by either touching crystals containing Terastal energy or by visiting a [[Pokémon Center]].<ref name=Terastal/> An exception to this can be found in Area Zero, where the Tera Orb will automatically recharge at the end of each battle after it is used. Upon capturing Terapagos at the end of [[The Indigo Disk]], the Tera Orb will be infused with Terapagos' energy and will no longer require charging.

After beating the [[Medali Gym]], the player can change their Pokémon's Tera Type at the [[Medali|Treasure Eatery]] by exchanging 50 [[Tera Shard]]s of a given type with the chef. However, the Tera Type of {{p|Ogerpon}} and {{p|Terapagos}} cannot be changed.

The Terastal phenomenon is currently only known to be found in certain areas of the [[Pokémon world]]: [[Paldea]], due to the [[Terastal energy]] seeping from the ground of the region<ref name="Terastal" />, which was supposedly created by the {{ga|Terapagos}} slumbering within the [[Great Crater of Paldea]]; [[Kitakami]], due to the Terastal energy found in the [[Crystal Pool]], which creation is unknown; and [[Blueberry Academy]] in [[Unova]], due to the Core hanging from the roof of the [[Terarium]], which [[Briar]] created by using soil from Paldea and the water from Kitakami's Crystal Pool.

====Catching Tera Pokémon====
Normal wild Pokémon found in Paldea typically have a Tera Type that matches one of their regular types. This Tera Type does not reflect their potential [[Evolution]]s and cannot be passed down through {{pkmn|breeding}}. For example, a {{p|Charcadet}} will always have a {{t|Fire}} Tera Type. Typically, there are only two ways to obtain a wild Tera Pokémon with unique typing: either catch a wild Tera Pokémon scattered around Paldea, or participate in a [[Tera Raid Battle]]. These Pokémon may know [[TM]] [[move]]s that match this set Tera Type.

=====Wild Tera Pokémon=====
''Main article: [[List of wild Tera Pokémon]]''

There are 68 {{pkmn2|wild}} Tera Pokémon scattered around Paldea, the majority with unique Tera Types. In [[Kitakami]], there are 22 wild Tera Pokémon scattered around the land. In the [[Terarium]], there are 21 wild Tera Pokémon scattered around the facility, the majority with unique Tera Types. They can be found in fixed locations and typically have Tera Types different from their base types, a notable exception being the eight [[Eeveelution]]s, who have Tera Types that match their base types, and would normally have a {{t|Normal}} Tera Type after [[Evolution|evolving]] from {{p|Eevee}}. The wild Tera Pokémon are indicated by a bright glow emitting from their bodies, which is different if the Tera Type is {{t|Stellar}}. Wild Tera Pokémon will always have a perfect 31 in at least three of their [[individual value|IVs]] and their scale value is always at least 200.

When battled against, they will immediately Terastallize. Wild Tera Pokémon cannot be caught while Terastallized. If an attack deals enough damage to drop them to 20% of maximum HP, all further damage from that attack (including from [[multistrike move]]s) will be prevented, their Tera Jewel will break, and if the Tera Pokémon has not already moved that turn, it will skip its turn. However, if indirect damage such as {{status|poison}} or {{status|burn}} reduces the Pokémon's HP below 20%, that damage will not be prevented, and a direct attack at that point has another chance to cause the Tera Jewel to break at 1 HP. Indirect damage can reduce the Pokémon to 0 HP while it still has its Tera Jewel, in which case it will faint without ever becoming catchable. When caught or defeated, the player is rewarded with [[League Point]]s, and with 10 [[Stellar Tera Shard]]s if their Tera Type is {{t|Stellar}} (other Tera Types do not reward any [[Tera Shard]]s).

Wild Tera Pokémon will eventually respawn at the same location after being caught or defeated: each real-time day, they have a chance to respawn. Contrary to other wild Tera Pokémon, {{t|Stellar}} ones do not always respawn as the same species: instead, the species is chosen at random in a pool specific for each one. Whether or not a Tera Pokémon respawns, and which species appears at Tera Stellar spawn spots, can be manipulated by soft resetting as long as the player did not get too close to the spawn spot when saving.

=====Tera Raid Battle=====
[[Tera Raid Battle]]s occur all over Paldea, with the locations changing at random each real-life day at midnight. These locations are indicated on the map, and in the overworld are indicated by a large, colored "shining crystal", with a beam of sparkling lights shooting into the sky. In addition, more Tera Raid crystals spawn if the player clears out many of them and is running out of Tera Raid Battles to do. Therefore, the player can never be unable to participate in Tera Raid Battles.

==In the side series games==
[[File:Champions Omni Ring.png|thumb|200px|The Omni Ring]]
===Pokémon Champions===
Players will be able to Terastallize their Pokémon in [[Pokémon Champions]] through the [[Omni Ring]].<ref>[https://champions.pokemon.com/en-us/ The Omni Ring—A Battle Essential! | Pokémon Champions]</ref>{{-}}

==In the spin-off games==
===[[Pokémon Mezastar]]===
{{sectionstub}}

===[[Pokémon Masters EX]]===
The Terastal phenomenon is embodied on [[Pasio]] in a phenomenon called '''Sync Terastal''' (Japanese: '''バディーズテラスタル'''). Through the power of bonds between Trainers and Pokémon, certain Trainers can Sync Terastallize their partner Pokémon using their [[sync stone]]. Sync pairs that can Sync Terastallize will do so as soon as they enter battle. This powers up the moves matching their Tera Type, changes one of their passive {{mas|skill}}s, and gives them access to the move {{m|Tera Blast}}. In addition, sync pairs capable of Sync Terastallization almost always have a variation of Tera Blast as their [[sync move]]. The only exception to this pattern is {{p|Terapagos}}, which uses {{m|Tera Starstorm}} instead (starting from version 2.68.0).

Sync Terastallization was introduced into the game with [[sync pair]] {{sync|Carmine|Sinistcha}}.

[[File:Tera Crown anime.png|thumb|250px|Tera Jewels of different types in ''Pokémon Horizons: The Series'']]
Terastallization debuted in ''[[HZ010|Nemona and Brassius and…]]'', where [[Brassius]] Terastallized his {{p|Sudowoodo}} into a {{t|Grass}} [[type]] during his battle with [[Roy]]. After the battle, {{an|Nemona}} explained how the Terastal phenomenon works to [[Liko]] and Roy.

Wattrel!!]]'', [[Friede]] Terastallized his {{TP|Friede|Charizard}} into a {{t|Dark}} type for the first time during his fight against [[Spinel]]'s {{p|Magneton}} and {{p|Beheeyem}}. In ''[[HZ025|Rivals in the Dark of Night!]]'', he Terastallized his Charizard again at [[Diana]]'s [[ancient castle]]. This revealed that, at least in the {{pkmn|animated series}}, Terastallization outside of [[Paldea]], [[Kitakami]], and [[Unova]]'s [[Blueberry Academy]] is possible through the use of a [[Tera Orb]], since Friede was in the [[Galar]] region at the time, though it's possible that it is because Liko's [[Pagogo|pendant]] ({{p|Terapagos}}, the source of all [[Terastal energy]] in the games) was nearby.

In ''[[HZ034|Respective Departures]]'', [[Hamber]] Terastallized his {{p|Dusknoir}} into a {{t|Ghost}} type during his training battle with Amethio.

It is also revealed that only Trainers approved in the Tera Training course are permitted to use Terastallization.

In ''[[HZ047|Put Your Heart Into It!]]'', Liko Terastallized her {{TP|Liko|Floragato}} into a Grass type for the first time during her Basics battle test against [[Katy]], who countered this by Terastallizing her {{p|Teddiursa}} into a {{t|Bug}} type.

In ''[[HZ067|Shine on, Terastallization! Liko vs. Roy!]]'', Roy Terastallized his newly [[Evolution|evolved]] {{p|Crocalor}} in his battle against Liko.

In ''[[HZ070|Tinkatink's Hammer Wasn't Made in a Day]]'', a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Bombirdier}} Terastalllized into a pure Dark type while fighting against Dot's Quaxwell, revealing to Dot that wild Pokémon are also capable of Terastallizing.

In ''[[HZ127|The Training Royale!]]'', Liko Terastallized her {{TP|Liko|Armarouge}} into a pure Fire type against Ann's {{p|Samurott}}, who followed this by Terastallizing her Samurott into a Ground type.

====Pagogo's purifying power====
[[File:HZ136.png|thumb|250px|The eighteen Terastallized Pokémon]]
{{main|Laquium}}
In ''[[HZ119|Don't Give Up, Crocalor!]]'', [[Briar]], based on [[Diana]]'s findings and [[Jacq]]'s research, theorized that the [[Laquium]] Core, the source of all Laquium, would only be completely purified and erased with [[Pagogo]]'s maximum power, which could only be achieved if it resonated simultaneously with all eighteen standard Tera Types. Each Tera Type Pokémon would also have to be on the same wavelength as the [[Six Heroes]].

In ''[[HZ125|Battle for the Six Heroes!]]'', [[Liko]] and [[Amethio]] made a deal to meet in [[Laqua]] to unleash Pagogo's power with the help of the [[White Zygarde]]. In the [[HZ126|following episode]], {{an|Nemona}} and [[Penny]] offered help to eliminate the Laquium, after witnessing what it did to Pokémon. They also inspired Liko, [[Roy]], and [[Dot]] to add their own Pokémon and [[Captain Pikachu]] to represent the unaccounted Tera Types, leaving only three of the eighteen types still missing afterwards: {{t|Ground}}, {{t|Ghost}}, and {{t|Poison}}, which were respectively covered through [[Ann]]'s {{p|Samurott}} in ''[[HZ127|The Training Royale!]]'', Amethio's {{tp|Amethio|Ceruledge}} in ''[[HZ130|Hamber's Moonlight Battle]]'', and [[Diana]]'s {{p|Pecharunt}} in ''[[HZ132|Lucario's Challenge!]]''. During the actual purification attempt in ''[[HZ135|The Core Awakens]]'', Penny's {{p|Sylveon}}, the Fairy Tera Type representative, ended up [[fainting]] and couldn't participate, but her spot was quickly filled by [[Coral]]'s {{p|Scream Tail}}, Screamypuff.

Due to the strong external stimulus and fueled by [[Spinel]]'s tenacity, the Laquium Core awakened during the purification attempt as a form of reaction response, disrupting the entire process. However, the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] and their allies managed to understand its patterns and were ultimately able to break through its defenses after the [[Black Rayquaza]] and [[White Zygarde]] [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolved]], allowing Pagogo and the eighteen Tera Type Pokémon to close in on the Laquium Core and finally erase it once and for all.

The eighteen Tera Type Pokémon that were necessary to purify Laqua from Laquium are listed below:

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
===={{MangaArc|Scarlet & Violet}}====
Terastallization debuted in ''[[PASV01|Speeding! Paldea's Prince of Speed!!]]'', when {{adv|Nemona}} Terastallized her {{p|Pawmi}} into an {{t|Electric}} [[type]] to battle {{Scarlet}}, who in response, Terastallized her {{p|Pikachu}} into a {{t|Flying}} type.

In ''[[PASV05|Challenge! DJ Giacomo!!]]'', {{Violet}} used his newly-obtained [[Tera Orb]] to Terastallize his {{p|Nymble}} into a {{t|Bug}} type so it succeedes in defeating [[Giacomo]]'s Segin [[Starmobile]].

In ''[[PASV06|Skillful! The Mysterious Treasure Hunter!!]]'', [[Katy]] Terastallized her {{p|Teddiursa}} into a Bug type during her [[Gym]] battle with Scarlet.

In ''[[PASV09|Challenge! The Avant-Garde Gym Leader!!]]'', [[Brassius]] Terastallized his {{p|Sudowoodo}} into a {{t|Grass}} type during his Gym battle with Scarlet.

In ''[[PASV12|Stream! Iono Zone!!]]'', [[Iono]] mentioned that her {{p|Mismagius}}'s Tera Type was {{t|Electric}}. She claimed that its {{a|Levitate}} [[Ability]] made it invincible when Terastallized.

In [[PASV20]], [[Larry]] Terastallized his {{p|Staraptor}} into a {{t|Normal}} type during his battle with Violet. Immediately after, Violet Terastallized his {{p|Clodsire}} into a {{t|Rock}} type.

==In the TCG==
[[File:CharizardexObsidianFlames125.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Tera {{TCG ID|Obsidian Flames|Charizard ex|125}} from {{TCG|Obsidian Flames}} — note that it is {{ct|Darkness}} instead of {{ct|Fire}} like Charizard cards normally are.]]
[[File:TerapagosexStellarCrown128.jpg|thumb|200px|{{TCG ID|Stellar Crown|Terapagos ex|128}} from {{TCG|Stellar Crown}}, an example of a Tera Pokémon ex card in which the Tera Pokémon has the Stellar type.]]
{{main|Pokémon ex (TCG)#Tera Pokémon ex|Pokémon ex (TCG) → Tera Pokémon ex}}

Terastallized Pokémon were first introduced in the English {{TCG|Scarlet & Violet}} expansion (the Japanese {{TCG|Scarlet ex}} and {{TCG|Violet ex}} expansions) as {{TCG|Pokémon ex}} cards. These Pokémon are known as '''Tera''' (Japanese: '''テラスタル''' ''Terastal'') Pokémon ex. While on the Bench, Tera Pokémon ex do not receive any damage from attacks done by either player.

Some Tera Pokémon ex can have {{TCG|type}}s that differ from their usual ones. These so-called "type-shifted" Tera Pokémon ex use the same Energy as their usual type for attacks, while their Weakness and Resistance change to the ones usually assigned to the shifted type. For example, {{TCG ID|Obsidian Flames|Charizard ex|125}} from {{TCG|Obsidian Flames}} is a {{ct|Darkness}} Pokémon and is weak to {{ct|Grass}} (like most Darkness-type Pokémon and unlike other {{ct|Fire}} Pokémon), but its Burning Darkness attack still requires Fire-type {{TCG|Energy}}.

The English {{TCG|Stellar Crown}} expansion and the Japanese {{TCG|Stellar Miracle}} expansion introduce Tera Pokémon with the {{t|Stellar}} type. Cards of such Pokémon have a unique distinction: each of these cards has a TCG type that follows their usual typing, as well as a uniquely powerful attack that requires three different Energy types to power it up. The Tera effect otherwise applies just the same as other Tera Pokémon ex cards.

{{cat|Cards that reference Tera Pokémon|Some cards}} have effects that reference or check for Tera Pokémon.

==Trivia==
* The Terastal phenomenon shares some similarities with [[Dynamax]], as both of them are fueled by the energy generated by [[Legendary Pokémon]] ({{p|Terapagos}}'s [[Terastal energy]] and {{p|Eternatus}}'s [[Galar particle]]s).
** Both of them also have special variations exclusive to certain Pokémon (the {{DL|Terastal phenomenon|unique Terastallized states}} and [[Gigantamax]], though the latter is much more common in comparison).
** The Legendary Pokémon associated with the phenomena also have a special [[form]] related to them ({{form|Terapagos|Stellar Form}} Terapagos and [[Eternamax]] Eternatus).
* The Tera Jewels for all Terastallized states (except Ogerpon's) possess a small hexagonal crystal on the front of the crown, with a pair of angry-looking eyes on it.
** For the {{type|Stellar}} Tera Jewel and Stellar Form Terapagos, instead of the hexagonal crystal, there is a gem shaped like {{form|Terapagos|Normal Form}} Terapagos on top of the crown, with the same pair of angry-looking eyes as in other Tera Jewels.
* Prior to the introduction of [[Crispin]] in [[The Indigo Disk]], if the {{player}} chooses {{p|Fuecoco}}, no [[Non-player character|NPC]] {{pkmn|Trainer}} in {{g|Scarlet and Violet}} Terastallizes their Pokémon into the {{t|Fire}} [[type]].
* [[Katy]] is the only NPC Trainer in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet that Terastallizes a non-fully [[Evolution|evolved]] Pokémon in her final team, namely {{p|Ursaring}}. It, however, is unable to evolve naturally into {{p|Ursaluna}} in said games.
* Similar to Dynamax, NPC Trainers don't freely Terastallize their Pokémon like a real player would. Instead, certain Trainers are programmed to Terastallize a particular Pokémon immediately.
** NPC partners in [[Tera Raid Battle]]s never Terastallize their Pokémon.
* During most of {{aniseries|HZ}}, the [[Black Rayquaza]] had a distinct crystallized glow coating its body, which looked extremely similar to a Terastallized state, but without a Tera Jewel on its head. In ''[[HZ075|The Wonders of the World!]]'', a flashback revealed that this was due to it receiving some of [[Pagogo]]'s power 100 years prior to the events of the series. This distinction disappeared when Rayquaza returned that power to Pagogo in ''[[HZ082|Beyond the Shining Rainbow]]''.
** Despite all of the [[Six Heroes]] having being given some of Pagogo's power, for some reason, Rayquaza was the only one to have this distinction.
* Currently, no Pokémon introduced in [[Generation VII]] has Terastallized in the animated series.
* In [[Pokémon Masters EX]], each terastalized pokemon is associated with a specific real-world [[wp:Gemstone|gemstone]] or mineral. These typically have a color corresponding to the type, as green emeralds and dioptase for those pokemon with Grass tera types.

'''Professor Tangrowth''' (Japanese: '''モジャンボはかせ''' ''Dr. Mojumbo'') is a supporting character of {{g|Pokopia}}. He is a {{p|Tangrowth}} and the last remaining {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in [[Kanto]] before [[Ditto (Pokopia)|Ditto]] came along,<ref>[https://pokopia.pokemon.com/en-us/explore/ Explore | Pokémon Pokopia]</ref> and teaches Ditto the basics of life in town.<ref name=PokopiaTwitter>(November 13, 2025). [https://twitter.com/Pokemon/status/1989000303786512489 Tweet by Pokémon (@Pokemon).] ([https://archive.ph/iKCKe archive])</ref> According to his [[Pokédex entry]], he is a Professor form Tangrowth.

Evoking the appearance of a [[Pokémon Professor]], Professor Tangrowth has a unique appearance compared to regular Tangrowth, with white vines covering the top half of his body. He wears and uses [[human]] tools,<ref name=PokopiaTwitter/> namely a broken pair of glasses, a stick, and a [[TM]] on top of his head that evokes a medical doctor's head mirror.

==History==
===Background===
Prior to the disappearance of [[human]]s, when Professor Tangrowth was still a young {{P|Tangela}}, he was found injured and weak by a [[Pokémon Professor]], who healed him with a [[Potion]], causing the Pokémon to take a liking to them and follow them home.<ref>Professor's diary #1</ref> Now living with the professor, he started playing with their grandchild and even other [[Pokémon Trainer]]s who come to visit. During that time, he also became interested in [[human]] devices and activities, seeming intrigued by the professor working on a computer and looking enthralled by things such as [[Pokédex]]es and {{i|Poké Ball}}s.<ref>Professor's diary #2</ref> He would later demonstrate a strong understanding of the purpose and operation of most common human technology, ostensibly as a result of its observations.

While humanity is evacuated into space, all Pokémon, including Tangela, would be stored in a massive computer system as part of the "Pokémon Conservation Project". However, when the professor entrusted him to other project members to store him away, Tangela ran off, likely to try and get back home. The day of departure had arrived, but Tangela was nowhere to be found, leading to the professor leaving the Pokémon behind.<ref>Professor's diary #5</ref> After the humans' disappearance and his evolution into {{p|Tangrowth}}, he found and wore the professor's favorite glasses on his chest.<ref>''"When this Pokémon was still a Tangela, it lived with a human professor. It now wears that professor's favorite pair of glasses on its chest."'' - [[Pokédex entry]]</ref>

===[[Pokémon Pokopia]]===
As of the start of {{g|Pokopia}}, Professor Tangrowth lives in a cave in the [[Withered Wasteland]]. Upon meeting [[Ditto (Pokopia)|Ditto]], he encourages it to use its {{m|Transform|transformations}} to help other Pokémon and restore their habitats, and resolves to investigate the mystery of what happened to the humans with its help. He accompanies Ditto to each area it visits except [[Palette Town]], typically idling near the local [[Pokémon Center]].

===Personality and characteristics===
Professor Tangrowth has the Appraise [[Specialties|specialty]], which indicates that he can identify any [[lost relic]]s brought to him. Tangrowth possesses an intelligent, curious, and experimental mind, always looking for new clues to the past and new discoveries. This desire to learn is not purely academic, as it seemingly stems from wanting to know where his original trainer went following humankind's disappearance, believing that he and Ditto can solve the mystery together. His knowledge of the human world and technology is impressive, but not encyclopedic, as he will regularly not know the function of lost relics brought to him, including [[Battle item]]<nowiki/>s which would normally be used by pokemon. His unusually intelligence was noted by his trainer back when they was raising him as a Tangela. Professor Tangrowth is also a friendly and jolly individual, always eager to find ways to help his fellow pokemon, rebuild their habitats, and engage in the various parties they throw.

==Trivia==
* According to the Pokédex, Professor Tangrowth's ideal habitat type is humid, and his favorite items are those with "lots of nature", "complicated stuff", "letters and words", "strange stuff", "group activities", and "dry flavors".
* Professor Tangrowth is the only Pokémon in Pokopia that cannot appear on [[Cloud Islands]], as the Professor's treasure trove used to create its habitat cannot be replicated.
* Professor Tangrowth is seemingly the sole non-[[Legendary Pokémon]] to survive the end of the world, outside of those inside of pokeballs and the Pokemon Conservation Project. How exactly he survived is left up to interpretation.

The '''Scarlet Book''' (Japanese: '''スカーレットブック''' ''Scarlet Book'') is a [[Key Item]] introduced in [[Generation IX]]. It is exclusive to {{pkmn|Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Scarlet}}. Its counterpart in {{pkmn|Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Violet}} is the [[Violet Book]]. It is a written account of the Area Zero Expedition's journey into the [[Great Crater of Paldea]] and what they found there. According to Professor [[Raifort]], while it was initially very popular, reception towards it eventually soured, with the public claiming the great treasures and [[Paradox Pokémon|bizarre creatures]] in Area Zero were too fantastical to possibly be real, eventually being seen as nothing more than fiction.

A copy of the book can be read in the reception area of Naranja Academy on one of the shelves immediately to the right of the entrance.

A copy of the Scarlet Book can be found and read at the lobby of [[Naranja Academy]].

====The Great Crater of Paldea====
:''"A photograph from the survey team's point of ingress to the crater, which is visible in the background. Luck favored us with fine weather, making for a smooth outset. But clouds obscured the crater's distant depths, where the treasure of legend is said to lie. Now, onward and downward."''

====The Adventure into Area Zero====
:''"Within the [[Great Crater of Paldea]] lies the mysterious [[Area Zero]]—a place home to such landscapes, such plant life, and such Pokémon as we had never seen. It is inhospitable to human life, and as such, I suspect something altogether unknown to humankind sleeps in its depths."''
:''"A photograph of a spot where the survey team rested on day two of the expedition. Note the strange symbols inscribed in the ground here—were they left by explorers in the time of the Paldean Empire, or could they be older still? Regardless, they seemed as if they must hold some meaning."''

====Area Zero: Cartograph====
:''"Ledges form a spiral down the inner walls of Area Zero, offering a path of descent. Vegetation and sources of water are here as well. Legends tell that precious stones or wondrous fruits have long slept in Area Zero's depths, protected by some manner of guardian."''

====Pokémon of Area Zero====
:''"Sketches by a survey team member."''
:''"Surprisingly, the Pokémon species we observed in the upper strata of Area Zero seemed little different from those seen outside the crater."''
:''"Now and then, we heard unfamiliar [[cry|cries]] from the lower strata."''

====Monsters of Area Zero====
:''"As we descended further into Area Zero, we began to catch glimpses of mysterious Pokémon—though we wondered if these huge, ferocious beasts were indeed Pokémon at all. One of our team suffered a brutal blow from such a beast and was mortally wounded, forcing us to retreat for a time."''
:''"A member of the survey team captured this photograph by chance. I notice a passing resemblance to the Pokémon known as {{p|Donphan}}, yet differences such as its sheer size and the shape of its back set it apart—as do its {{p|Great Tusk|great tusks}}."''

====Herba Mystica====
:''"Area Zero was home to wondrous herbs that instantly impart vigor when eaten. We dubbed them [[Herba Mystica]] and attempted to grow some in areas around Paldea. However, before we could harvest, the herbs were eaten by Pokémon—which in turn grew large and strong. We call these [[Titan Pokémon]]."''

====Mysterious Plates====
:''"During our descent into Area Zero, we came across a buried metal plate inscribed with a strange symbol. We attempted to shave off a piece of the plate but failed to leave even a scratch. Even determining the nature of the metal seems beyond modern science. We know not why the inscription was made, let alone how."''

====The Legendary Treasure====
:''"Countless days into our descent, we reached at last the very depths of the Great Crater. There we found a cave with formations of gemstone, shining blindingly bright as far as we could see. Perhaps that strange light itself is the guardian said to watch over treasure deep within the crater."''

====An Imagined Pokémon====
:''"A drawing of a fantastical Pokémon as envisioned by our sketch artist. The size and ferocity of the strange Pokémon that dwell in Area Zero's lower reaches tickled the artist's imagination, prompting this sketch of what other species that inhabit these depths might look like."''

====A Phantom Memory====
:''"During our exploration of Area Zero's depths, I—[[Heath]]—strayed from the team and was later found unconscious. When awoken, I could only recall speaking with someone in an unfamiliar place, as if in a dream. I was found holding the page shown here. The handwriting is my own, but I have no memory of writing this."''

====Our Generous Sponsor====
:''"The author, Heath, pictured with the director of [[Naranja Academy]]. The academy's generous funding made the Area Zero Expedition possible, and the data gathered has been shared with the academy in hopes that it will aid in the institution's research work and foster future generations of scholars and scientists."''

====About the Author====
:''"Heath, author of the Scarlet Book, shown here with his partner {{p|Cyclizar}}. A natural historian as well as a writer, he was chosen for the Area Zero Expedition and penned this account upon returning from the Great Crater of Paldea. Cyclizar aided the expedition as well by bearing the team's luggage and equipment."''

====A ▊isk P▊é▊n?====
''(The following section, which has been blacked out and made illegible, is taken from the published version of the book.)''
:''"While sep▊ated from the resea▊h team in the crater's dep▊s, I found a s▊ange...en▊ty. Whether it was a ▊kémo▊, or even ▊liv▊ at all, I kn▊w no▊. It bore a s▊ll with layers of o▊rlapping he▊gons, and glea▊d brig▊er still than ▊ mstone. Vie▊d as a whole, it res▊led a mys▊ious, ▊illiant d▊sk."''

====A Disk Pokémon?====
''(The original manuscript of [[Heath]] which is in the possession of his descendant, [[Briar]].)''
:''"While separated from the research team in the crater's depths, I found a strange...entity. Whether it was a Pokémon, or even alive at all, I know not. It bore a shell with layers of overlapping hexagons, and gleamed brighter still than gemstone. Viewed as a whole, it resembled a mysterious, brilliant disk."''
:''"I have tentatively named this creature {{p|Terapagos}}. I suspect that its very body is made up of the key material that causes Pokémon to shine brightly and crystallize."''

===''Pokémon Horizons: The Series''===
The Scarlet Book first appeared in ''[[HZ056|Liko vs. Rika! Towards the Battle's End]]'', being read by [[Chalce]] in [[Naranja Academy]]'s lobby. After she had put it back to its shelf, [[Dot]] picked it up and started reading it, with {{an|Terapagos}} becoming interested in one image in particular. Dot later borrowed the book and showed it to [[Liko]] and [[Roy]] as well. In [[HZ057|the next episode]], Dot showed the book to [[Friede]], [[Geeta]], and [[Clavell]] as well, with Geeta identifying the image Terapagos had become interested in as what's said to be Terapagos's {{form|Terapagos|third form}}. Afterwards, Dot returned the book to the library.

In ''[[HZ071|Encounters at the Crystal Pool]]'', [[Briar]] was revealed to own the original copy of the Scarlet Book, which she showed to Liko, Roy, Dot, and Friede while describing her ancestor [[Heath]]'s expedition into [[Area Zero]].

In ''[[HZ075|The Wonders of the World!]]'', [[Lucius]] was revealed to have owned a copy of the Scarlet Book 100 years ago, which gave him the knowledge about {{p|Terapagos}}.

In ''[[HZ078|Entei's Fierce Battle Cry!]]'', Briar showed the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] a sketch from the Scarlet Book, depicting a Pokémon that shared some characteristics with {{p|Entei}}, which she used as evidence to support the Entei sightings made within Area Zero.

In ''[[HZ081|The Pillar of Fire]]'', during the battle Rising Volt Tacklers and [[Lucius]]'s "{{TP|Lucius|Entei}}", thanks to its earth-gouging fire pillars, Briar discovered the Pokémon's real name, being listed in the Scarlet Book as {{P|Gouging Fire}}.

In ''[[HZ108|Taking the Next Steps]]'', it was revealed that [[Diana]] obtained a copy of the Scarlet Book for herself. With the study she did on the book, Diana assumed that for Pagogo to be able to release its maximum power and eliminate Laquium, it would be necessary for Terapagos to be with a Pokémon of each of the 18 existing types.

'''Penny''' (Japanese: '''ボタン''' ''Botan'') is a [[Pokémon Trainer]] in [[Pokémon Masters EX]], based on the [[Penny|character of the same name]] in the [[core series]] {{pkmn|games}}. She forms a [[sync pair]] with {{p|Sylveon}}. This pair can be obtained through a Poké Fair [[sync pair scout]] beginning on November 10, 2023. This pair can be raised to {{6EX}} since it first released.

Penny also forms a sync pair with {{p|Eevee}}. This pair can be obtained by reaching Friendship Level 100 with Penny in the [[Trainer Lodge]] beginning on November 1, 2025. This pair can be raised to {{6EX}} since it first released, though it lacks an EX style.

==In the games==
Penny arrives on Pasio after the events of ''Pokemon Scarlet'', having seen the defeat of [[Team Star]] and having gone on adventures with [[Juliana (Masters)|Juliana]] and her friends. She is still shy about talking to people, but loves to speak about machines and the [[Eeveelution|Eevee evolutions]].

She first appears in [[Veevee on Pasio!]], where she is too shy to speak to other Eevee trainers. Penny is approached by [[Hugh (Masters)|Hugh]] who thinks she's acting suspiciously and might be a member of [[Team Break]], but they clear the misunderstanding. Hugh then decides to help her make friends, to which Penny accepts. With Hugh's overly enthusiastic coaching, Penny makes friends with [[Nate (Masters)|Nate]] and [[Rosa (Masters)|Rosa]], saves a preschooler's Eevee from Team Break, and eventually reunites with [[Nemona (Masters)|Nemona]] and the rest of her friends from Paldea. Over the next several [[Story event|Story events]], Penny also meets up with the other members of Team Star, happy to be together with all her friends again as they accept Director [[Clavell (Masters)|Clavell's]] offer to aid in the founding of [[Pasio Academy]].

==Sylveon==
Raising this sync pair to 6★ EX will unlock Song Key 09003, which allows "Battle! (Penny) (Pokémon Masters EX Version)" to be played in the {{mas|Jukebox}}.

==Trivia==
* All versions of Penny use special voice-over lines upon entering a team that contains certain Trainers (regardless of their partner Pokémon) and victory with them. Those Trainers include {{mas|Florian}}, {{mas|Juliana}}, {{mas|Nemona}}, {{mas|Arven}}, {{mas|Giacomo}}, {{mas|Mela}}, {{mas|Atticus}}, {{mas|Ortega}}, {{mas|Eri}}, and {{mas|Clavell}}.

===Origin===
Penny's design is based on her appearance in {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}. Sylveon is Penny's signature Pokémon in the [[core series]] games. Sylveon's {{mas|Dex}} entry comes from {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Pokémon Ultra Sun}}.

Penny trades the {{player}} an Eevee in the [[League Club Room]]. She is also a fan of the species, using its evolutions in battle and wearing a backpack fashioned after it. Eevee's Dex entry comes from Pokémon Ultra Sun.

'''Rachel''' (Japanese: '''チェッタ''' ''Chetta'') is a character introduced in [[Pokémon Masters EX]]. She forms a [[sync pair]] with {{p|Umbreon}}. The sync pair can be obtained through the limited [[sync pair scout]], and was first available on July 30, 2021. The pair's potential can be upgraded to {{6EX}} from September 19, 2024, which unlocks Rachel's EX style.

Rachel also forms a sync pair with {{form|Gimmighoul|Roaming Form}} {{p|Gimmighoul}}. This pair can be obtained through a variety sync pair scout beginning on September 17, 2024. This pair can be raised to {{6EX}} since it first released, though this pair lacks an EX style.

==In the games==
{{incomplete|section|Role in Pokémon Masters EX}}
Rachel, along with {{mas|Sawyer}}, is one of [[Lear]]'s subordinates. She is utterly dedicated to Lear and adores him, sometimes spacing out when thinking about him. Despite Lear's arrogant tendencies, Rachel respects Lear for his single-minded dedication, while Lear comes to respect and value Rachel and Sawyer more as time goes.

In her sync pair story, Rachel reveals that she used to be an orphan girl before being taken in as one of Lear's maids. She apparently had a very thick country accent, which she worked hard to change to sound more professional. Sawyer thought her accent was a sign of her being disrespectful, but Lear claimed that he liked her voice.

During her time as a maid, her Umbreon was still an [[Eevee (Pokémon)|Eevee]]. When Eevee evolved at night, she was initially disappointed as she apparently wanted a different [[Eeveelution]], but after Lear said that he liked Umbreon, Rachel learned to be happy with Eevee's evolution. {{-}}

[[File:Rachel Masters Trailer.png|thumb|250px|Rachel in the [[Pokémon Masters Animated Trailer]]]]
===Pokémon Masters Animated Trailer===
Rachel briefly appeared in the [[Pokémon Masters Animated Trailer]] in a montage.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* Along with {{sync|Sawyer|Honchkrow}}, Rachel & Umbreon were the first non-5★ sync pair to be featured in a limited-time sync pair scout.
** Along with Sawyer & Honchkrow, they were also the first fair-exclusive {{type|Dark}} sync pair.
* In her sync pair story, Rachel reveals that she's owned Umbreon ever since it was an {{p|Eevee}}.
* Rachel's overall design appears to be based on the popular depiction of a [[wp:Jester|Jester]], an entertainer in a king's court. Her overly long sleeves and checkered tights fit the clown-like aesthetic of a court fool, along with her large twintails resembling the silhouette of a foolscap.

=== Origin===
Umbreon's {{mas|Dex}} entry comes from {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Pokémon Ultra Sun}}.

Roaming Form Gimmighoul's Dex entry comes from {{pkmn|Scarlet and Violet|Pokémon Scarlet}}.

'''Steven Stone''' (Japanese: '''ツワブキ・ダイゴ''' ''Daigo Tsuwabuki'') is a skilled {{pkmn|Trainer}} who [[Type expert|specializes]] in {{type|Steel}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. He is the {{pkmn|Champion}} of the [[Hoenn]] [[region]]'s [[Hoenn League|Pokémon League]] in [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire]], [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire]], as well as the Hoenn League Champion during {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.

A collector of rare stones, Steven is the son of the [[Mr. Stone|president]] of the [[Devon Corporation]], and makes his home in [[Mossdeep City]]. In the Hoenn-based games, he wanders the region, aiding the {{player}} on their {{pkmn|journey}}. In {{game|Emerald}}, he is no longer the Champion, with [[Wallace]] taking his place.

==In the core series games==
[[File:Steven challenge RS.png|240px|right|thumb|{{ga|Brendan}} challenging Steven in Ruby and Sapphire]]
In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s|Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire}}, {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire}}, Steven appears as the {{pkmn|Champion}} of the [[Hoenn]] region. His strategy in battle is to use {{type|Steel}} Pokémon to find the weaknesses of his opponents, with [[Steven's Metagross|his Metagross]] being the cornerstone of his team.

In {{game|Emerald}}, Steven is a powerful, wandering Trainer who gave up competing seriously to spend more time looking for rare rocks and stones, which he claims he would {{m|Waterfall|climb waterfalls}} to find. Fittingly, the {{player}} can find and challenge him in the upper area of [[Meteor Falls]] after they defeat the new Champion, [[Wallace]]. This battle cannot have a rematch.

In Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, after the player enters the [[Hall of Fame]], Steven will leave a {{p|Beldum}} and a note for the player at his house in [[Mossdeep City]]. In the remakes of these games, he leaves one for the player after the [[Delta Episode]] is fully completed.

In {{game|Platinum}}, the person who gives the player their [[villa]] in the [[Resort Area]] mentions that the man who gave him the villa came to [[Sinnoh]] to collect rare stones. After collecting the stones, he left the region with all the items in the villa. This mysterious previous owner may in fact be Steven.

Steven also appears in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, introducing himself as the Hoenn Champion. The player first meets him when they leave the [[Pokémon Fan Club]] in [[Vermilion City]] after collecting {{OBP|Copycat|character}}'s [[Lost Item]], where he will appear and inform them that there have been reports of either a {{p|Latios}}{{sup/4|SS}} or {{p|Latias}}{{sup/4|HG}} {{pkmn2|roaming}} [[Kanto]]. The player meets him a second time after defeating {{ga|Red}} on [[Mt. Silver]], where he will appear in the [[Silph Co.]] building in [[Saffron City]] and let the player choose one of three colored stones: the Green Stone, the Red Stone or the Blue Stone. Depending on which color is picked, he will give the player one of the three Hoenn [[starter Pokémon]]. He can later be found in the [[Pewter Museum of Science]], examining a shelf. After visiting and speaking to him there, he will return to the Silph Co. building and offer to [[trade]] a Beldum for a {{p|Forretress}}.

If the player has the [[Enigma Stone]] and enters the Pewter Museum of Science, an event will occur in which Steven will be talking to one of the museum's researchers. When he is spoken to, he will notice the Enigma Stone and have the researcher examine it. The researcher will extract the [[Soul Dew]] from the stone and give it to the player. Steven will tell the player that Soul Dew is said to be the solidified spirits of Latias and Latios, and that it can bring out their true potential. Upon walking outside, Latias{{sup/4|SS}} or Latios{{sup/4|HG}} will be waiting to battle in [[Pewter City]], drawn to the player by the Soul Dew.

In {{game|Black and White|s}}, a tourist who visits [[Undella Town]] in the [[Season (mechanic)|summer]] mentions Steven, explaining that he is a very powerful Pokémon Trainer who collects stones. In {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, Steven appears alongside the other Champions from the first five [[generation]]s as an opponent in the [[Champions Tournament]] at the [[Pokémon World Tournament]].

In [[Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], Steven performs the same roll as he did in the originals. He also appears in the [[Delta Episode]], attempting to find a way to stop the [[Grand Meteor Delta]] from destroying the [[Pokémon world]]. His plans are sabotaged by [[Zinnia]], as she claims his plan would instead send the meteor to [[Pokémon multiverse|another world]] and cause even greater damage. He attempts unsuccessfully to reason with Zinnia as the lorekeeper carries out her own plan to summon [[Rayquaza]] and it destroy the meteor. After the player's final battle with [[Deoxys]], Steven is seen speaking with [[Wallace]]. Steven confides in his friend that he wishes to one day step down from his duty as champion and see the world, and hopes that Wallace will take his place when that day comes. Wallace playfully agrees to Steven's proposal.

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File: Steven Adventures.png|thumb|320px|Steven in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
====={{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}}=====
Steven is the [[Hoenn League]] {{pkmn|Champion}}, having taken the position from [[Wallace]], who turned down the title despite winning the previous Pokémon League tournament.

Steven debuted in ''[[PS196|Blowing Past Nosepass II]]''. There, he spoke to [[Captain Stern]] about the status of the creation of the [[Submarine Explorer 1]]. In ''[[PS194|Guile from Mawile]]'', Steven rescued {{adv|Ruby}} from a hoard of rampaging {{p|Mawile}} in [[Granite Cave]]. Once they escaped, Steven considered recruiting Ruby to help him combat [[Team Magma]] and [[Team Aqua]], but decided against it due to Ruby's young age. Steven said his farewells to Ruby and headed off.

In ''[[PS250|The Beginning of the End with Kyogre & Groudon XII]]'', Steven arrived at the [[Lilycove Department Store]] and found Wallace battling [[Tabitha]], who had gone berserk from touching the [[Blue Orb]]. Steven revealed that after the Submarine Explorer 1 was stolen, he went to other regions and recruited the Hoenn [[Elite Four]] as allies against {{adv|Super-ancient Pokémon|Groudon and Kyogre}}. Steven passed his title of Hoenn League Champion to Wallace and sent the Elite Four to three locations where the [[Legendary Pokémon]] [[Brandon's Legendary titans#In the Pokémon Adventures manga|Registeel, Regirock, and Regice]] were sealed. With a [[blind boy]]'s help, Steven attempted to decipher an stone slab containing the secret to awaken the sleeping Pokémon. The slab was too damaged to properly translate, forcing the plan to be abandoned.

In ''[[PS253|A Royal Rumble with Regirock, Regice and Registeel I]]'', Steven found [[Sootopolis City]] surrounded by a massive explosion of energy. Amidst the chaos, Steven found and rescued {{adv|Sapphire}}, who handed him a [[letter]] she received from his father, [[Mr. Stone]]. The letter contained a decoding for the missing part of the slab, allowing Steven to finish the translation. With assistance from Sapphire's {{p|Wailord|Lorry}} and {{p|Relicanth|Relly}}, Steven successfully awaken {{p|Registeel}}, {{p|Regirock}}, and {{p|Regice}}. Steven and Sapphire were then separated by another explosion. Steven, Wallace, and the Elite Four separated into three teams of two and used Registeel, Regirock, and Regice to contain the energy generated from Groudon and Kyogre's clash contained and prevent it from spreading throughout Hoenn. Their efforts lasted for several weeks until ''[[PS263|It All Ends Now IV]]'', when Ruby and [[Norman]] ended Groudon and Kyogre's battle with {{p|Rayquaza}}'s power, returning the super-ancient Pokémon to their slumber. Controlling three Legendary Pokémon for so long left Steven so exhausted that he collapsed and died soon after. With Steven's passing, Registeel, Regirock, and Regice returned to the wild.

In ''[[PS263|It All Ends Now VIII]]'', Steven and those who lost their lives in the fight against Groudon and Kyogre were revived by Ruby's {{adv|Celebi}}'s [[time travel]] powers. With Team Magma and Team Aqua defeated, Steven celebrated the victory with his allies and thanked Ruby and Sapphire for their assistance in the battle.

====={{chap|Platinum}}=====
In ''[[PS417|Leaping Past Lopunny]]'', Steven was revealed to have spent time collecting stones in the [[Sinnoh]] region. After obtaining the stones he wanted, Steven sold the [[Villa]] he had built to use as a home base. The Villa was bought by {{adv|Platinum}} shortly afterward.

====={{chap|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}=====
[[File: Steven ORAS chapter.png|thumb|200px|left|Steven in the thirteenth chapter]]
In the thirteenth chapter, it was discovered that [[Grand Meteor Delta]], a giant meteoroid, would crash into Hoenn and destroy the planet. To prevent this disaster, Steven enlisted the help of Ruby, Sapphire, and {{adv|Emerald}}. In [[PS596]], Steven had [[Ultima]] train the Hoenn [[Pokédex holders]] [[Mumu]], [[Chic]], and {{TP|Emerald|Sceptile}} in mastering the ultimate moves so they would be prepared to use [[Mega Evolution]]. Despite Ruby being elsewhere on other business, Mr. Stone had everyone move onto the next phase once the training had finished.

In [[PS601]], Steven, Sapphire, and Emerald arrived on the [[Sea Mauville]]. The former energy plant contained a machine called an [[ultimate weapon|Absorber]] capable of fueling a dimensional shifter designed to deal with Grand Meteor Delta. That night, Emerald was attacked by a mischievous {{p|Hoopa}}. Steven assisted Emerald in battling the [[Mythical Pokémon]], revealing he was capable of using Mega Evolution as well. Hoopa eventually escaped before Steven and Emerald could defeat or identify it.

In [[PS603]], Steven and Mr. Stone used the Absorber to drain Emerald's Sceptile and Sapphire's Chic of their life energy while in their Mega-Evolved states. Once the process was finished, the Sea Mauville was raided by by [[Zinnia]], a [[Draconid people|Draconid]] with a hatred for the [[Devon Corporation]]. Zinnia and her allies made of former Team Magma and Aqua members attempted to destroy the dimensional shifter, forcing Steven, Sapphire, and Emerald to defend it. By the time Ruby returned, everyone realized that Sapphire and the shifter had disappeared due to Hoopa's interference. With the shifter gone, Zinnia attempted to steal Steven's [[Key Stone]] but was convinced to leave when Ruby offered up his and Emerald's [[Mega Bracelet]]s in exchange.

In [[PS606]], Steven and Mr. Stone stayed behind while Ruby and the others went ahead to find an alternate solution to the meteoroid impact. They received a call from the [[Mossdeep Space Center]] stating that Sapphire successfully delivered the shifter. While [[Professor Cozmo]] and [[Professor Cozmo's assistants|his assistants]] outfitted the shifter onto a rocket, Steven and his father traveled to [[Mossdeep City]] to deal with the public, who had learned of the upcoming disaster due to a news leak. In [[PS608]], Steven and Mr. Stone arrived at Mossdeep. Sapphire told Steven that she sensed Zinnia's presence and went off to prevent her from interfering with the rocket's launch. Sapphire and Zinnia's clash led to them battling on top of the rocket as it flew through the air. Eventually, Sapphire was defeated, allowing Zinnia to destroy the dimensional shifter and knock the rocket down into the ocean.

In [[PS615]], Steven and Mr. Stone arrived at Sootopolis, where Zinnia was taken to after she failed to get {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Rayquaza}} to join her. Mr. Stone apologized for trying to control Rayquaza years ago, only for Zinnia to reject it, claiming he was only trying to save face for his failures. When Zinnia gave up and stated it was impossible to stop disaster, Emerald suggested the differing factions worked together to save the planet. Together, everyone gathered allies from across Hoenn, [[Kanto]], and [[Johto]] to assist in stopping Grand Meteor Delta. While the plan was being set up, Steven gave Zinnia a jar of Key Stones that were collected at the [[Embedded Tower]]. When Zinnia assumed the stones Steven and Hoenn Pokédex holders used were stolen from the late [[Aster]], Steven explained he received those from the [[Gurkinn|Mega Evolution guru]] in the [[Kalos]] region.

In ''[[PAORAS21|Omega Alpha Adventure 21]]'', the plan to destroy Grand Meteor Delta went underway. Ruby and Sapphire rode on Mega Rayquaza into space, where they attacked the meteoroid with {{m|Dragon Ascent}}. Back on Earth, Steven and the three allied regions launched a simultaneous attack on Grand Meteor Delta, successfully shattering it into pieces. With the crisis averted, Steven and the others watched as Ruby and Sapphire flew back to Sootopolis with Rayquaza.

Once everything had returned to normal, Steven was revealed to be taking {{p|Diancie}} back to its home in Kalos.

==Trivia==
* In {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, as well as {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|their remakes}}, Steven states that his favorite Pokémon is {{p|Beldum}} and that his favorite move is {{m|Steel Wing}}. Consequently, he leaves Beldum in his house as a {{pkmn2|gift}} for the {{player}}, and gives the player the TM for Steel Wing in [[Granite Cave]].
* In Emerald, when the player speaks to Steven in [[Meteor Falls]] before their battle, he mistakenly refers to battling alongside the player in the {{ci|Sootopolis}} Space Center. The Space Center is actually in [[Mossdeep City]].
* The battle with Steven against [[Maxie]] and [[Tabitha]] is the only occasion in the [[Generation III]] games where the player teams up with an ally for a [[Double Battle]].
* Steven's [[Trainer ID number]] is 61226 in Pokémon Emerald, 23478 in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, and 11214 in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.
* Steven shares his French name (Pierre) with [[Brock]], the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Pewter City]]. In the French dub of ''[[AG022|A Hole Lotta Trouble]]'', he keeps his English name of Steven Stone so as to not be confused with {{an|Brock}}, who was traveling with Ash when the group met Steven.
** However, from ''[[XY075|Rivals: Today and Tomorrow!]]'' onward, he is referred to as Pierre Rochard.
** In games where both Steven and Brock appear, Steven is referred to as "P. Rochard" (HeartGold and SoulSilver) and "Rochard" (Black 2 and White 2).
* Despite being a {{type|Steel}} specialist, all of Steven's teams feature just as many or more {{type|Rock}} Pokémon.
* In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, Steven mentions to [[Wallace]] that he will relinquish his position as Champion sometime in order to travel the world, and asks Wallace if he will become Champion in his place, referencing their roles in Emerald.
* In the rematch with Steven in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, all of his Pokémon have at least one immunity.
* In Emerald, {{ga|Brendan}} and {{ga|May}} share their battle theme with Steven.
* If the player skips obtaining the HM for Dive from Steven's house in Ruby and Sapphire (by trading in a Pokémon with the move), Steven will include the HM alongside the Beldum.

'''Ghetsis Harmonia''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|ゲーチス|Gēchisu}}・ハルモニア''' ''G-Cis Harmonia'') is one of the [[Seven Sages]], the leader of [[Team Plasma]] and the primary antagonist in {{game|Black and White|s}} and its [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|sequels]].

==In the games==
{{spoilers}}
Ghetsis first appears in [[Accumula Town]] trying to rally its citizens. After that, he appears at several points in the game trying to warn the citizens of the oncoming change and is often the one that comes to rescue other [[Seven Sages]] if they are nearing arrest. After the player and [[Alder]] come to the Relic Castle he is already there and tells them that if they are to battle N, they must retrieve the Light{{sup/5|Bl}}/Dark{{sup/5|W}} Stone. He also appears making a similar speech to his one in Accumula Town in [[Opelucid City]]. He later appears at the castle during [[N]]'s takeover and taunts the player before battling N. After the player defeats N, he reveals he has been using N and revived {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W}} for N to use, and calls N a disappointment. He reveals that his and Team Plasma's motive for stealing Pokémon was a lie all along and that Ghetsis wanted to ensure that he was the only person in Unova with Pokémon, so he could dominate the region (this was previously foreshadowed by him referring to himself during speeches referring to Team Plasma's goals before correcting himself and saying Team Plasma). According to a Grunt in the castle, he was even learning of ways to manipulate hearts of people. [[Alder]] and [[Cheren]] both hear the truth from Ghetsis. Ghetsis battles the player in a rage, despite N's protest. After the battle, Alder and Cheren arrest Ghetsis and take him away. He is not seen again in this game.

When the player meets the [[Shadow Triad]] for the final time, it is revealed that they rescued Ghetsis from captivity and that he is currently on the run. He has lost everything, including his Pokémon, and only the Shadow Triad are still loyal to him. For some reason, he has ordered the Shadow Triad to stop looking for him.

In {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, Ghetsis turns out to be once again behind Team Plasma's activities. This version of Unova's villainous team is not attempting to release Pokémon, but instead take over Unova. He wants to freeze [[Unova]] so that [[Team Plasma]] can steal every Pokémon in the region. He has appointed [[Colress]] as the new official boss of Team Plasma and recruited [[Zinzolin]] to help him. After being defeated at the [[Giant Chasm]] he snaps and is escorted away by a member of the Shadow Triad. Later, in [[Icirrus City]], the Shadow Triad reveal that Ghetsis has lost heart and is no longer capable of any further criminal deeds.

===Quotes===
====Pokémon Black and White====
=====At Accumula Town=====
:''"My name is Ghetsis. I am here representing Team Plasma. Today, ladies and gentlemen, I would like to talk to you about Pokémon liberation.''
:''"I'm sure most of you believe that we humans and Pokémon are partners that have come to live together because we want and need each other. However... Is that really the truth? Have you ever considered that perhaps we humans... only assume that this is the truth?''
:''"Pokémon are subject to the selfish commands of Trainers... They get pushed around when they are our "partners" at work... Can anyone say with confidence that there is no truth in what I'm saying?''
:''"Now, ladies and gentlemen, Pokémon are different from humans. They are living beings that contain unknown potential. They are living beings from whom we humans have much to learn. Tell me, what is our responsibility toward these wonderful beings called Pokémon?"''
:''"That's right! We must liberate the Pokémon! Then, and only then, will humans and Pokémon truly be equals. Everyone, I end my words here today by imploring you to consider the relationship between people and Pokémon... and the correct way to proceed. We sincerely appreciate your attention."''

=====At Castelia City=====
:''"My word, if it isn't the Gym Leader, Burgh."''
:''"Indeed... No matter. We already have an exceptional base of operations. Is everyone familiar with the legend of the founding of the Unova region?"''
:''"The truth is this... The black/white dragon appeared before a hero who sought the ideal/true way to knit together a world full of warring people. This black/white Dragon-type Pokémon shared its knowledge--and bared its fangs at those who stood against it. Together, the power of this Pokémon and the hero brought unity to the hearts of everyone in the land, and that is how Unova was created.''
:''"We shall bring back the hero and that Pokémon to Unova once again! If we can win people's hearts and minds, we can easily create the world that I--I mean, Team Plasma--desires!"''
:''"Myah-ha-ha-ha! You are quite hard to figure out--a little more intelligent than I'd expected. I am fond of intelligent people, you see. You'll enjoy hearing about this... From every corner of the world, I have gathered knowledgeable people for our king's benefit. You could call them the Seven Sages. Very well! We will submit to your opinion and be on our way.''
:''"That girl over there... Return her Pokémon!"''
:''"The friendship between Pokémon and people can be very touching. But, in order to liberate Pokémon from foolish people, we will revive the legend of Unova--and win the hearts and minds of everyone. Farewell..."''

=====At Driftveil City=====
:''"Clay. It's a pleasure to meet you. I am Ghetsis, of Team Plasma. I've come to pick up my associates who are in your care."''
:''"What's this? It seems as if there has been some misunderstanding. We only free Pokémon from wicked people."''
:''"Team Plasma also has an interest in Driftveil City. And we have many, many more members besides those who are here..."''
:''"A decision worthy of a businessman called the Miner King. Your grasp of the situation is outstanding. Well then, we will be taking our colleagues off your hands..."''
:''"Don't worry, my fellow servant of the king... We are two of the Seven Sages, are we not? Well then, everyone, I expect that we will meet again somewhere."''

=====In Relic Castle=====
:''"It looks like everyone is here. It seems you are working hard to resurrect Reshiram{{sup/5|Bl}}/Zekrom{{sup/5|W}}, the other Dragon-type Pokémon, aren't you? But it appears the Light Stone{{sup/5|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup/5|W}} you seek is not here.''
:''"Well then, congratulations are in order! <Player>, you were chosen by our king. If you truly desire to keep the world as it is, where Pokémon live alongside people, you must bring the other Dragon-type Pokémon spoken of in legend and battle with our king. Otherwise, Team Plasma will steal every Pokémon from every person in the world and release them all!"''
:''"What's this? {{pkmn|Champion}} Alder, even though illness took the Pokémon that had been your partner for many years, and you haven't had a serious battle in all that time... Even you, who ordered the Elite Four to protect the Pokémon League and left to wander the Unova region alone... Even a Champion like you now wants to protect a world where Pokémon and people live together? Team Plasma's king will show the people of Unova that he is stronger than a Champion who keeps Pokémon bound! And just like the hero who founded Unova, he will be accompanied by the legendary Pokémon. He will give this order! 'Trainers, release your Pokémon!' For this, we have prepared a suitable castle for the legendary Zekrom{{sup/5|Bl}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W}} and our king!"''
:''"Our king has no interest in you. He has already determined that victory against you is assured."''
:''"Of course not. I'm doing this out of kindness. Yes, kindness. I'm making sure the Champion doesn't get hurt for no reason. Granted, the moment when someone loses all hope... I really do love to watch that moment. Well then, farewell."''

=====At the Tubeline Bridge=====
:''"Excellent. It seems that you have obtained the Light Stone{{sup/5|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup/5|W}}. I congratulate you on a job well done.''
:''"It is my lord N's thought that the two holders of the legendary Pokémon should put their beliefs on the line and strive to find which is the true hero.''
:''"This is not necessary, however. From his infancy, I provided him with the education required to become the hero of legend. Indeed, he has been so acknowledged by the legendary Pokémon. ...Such purity of purpose is his.''
:''"The liberation of Pokémon of which I... Of which Team Plasma speaks is the separation of Pokémon from foolish people! That's the truth! All Trainers will become helpless to resist us! We alone will be able to use Pokémon!''
:''"The preparations are complete!''
:''"When my perfect plan is set in motion, first a few gullible Pokémon Trainers who are unable to resist Team Plasma will release their Pokémon. Then that number will become a hundred, then a thousand... In no time, even the Gym Leaders and the Champion will become unable to fight us. Having a Pokémon will be considered a bad thing! Even people like the sad little Bianca, whose Pokémon was stolen in Castelia, will be unable to face public opinion and will release their Pokémon! That's the kind of world we'll make!''
:''"You may have the Stone, but there's no chance whatsoever that the legendary Pokémon will accept you as the hero. So, if you're not willing to hand over your precious Pokémon, I suggest you search for some courage-- because you're going to need it!"''

=====At Opelucid City=====
:''"That's correct! Our lord N has combined his power with the legendary Dragon-type Pokémon and intends to create a new world. We herald the return of the hero of Unova, founder of this region.''
:''"Pokémon are different from people. They are living beings who contain unknown potential.''
:''"They are living beings from whom we humans have much to learn.''
:''"They are beings whose greatness we should acknowledge! Beings who should be freed from our oppression!''
:''"We, Team Plasma, invite you to join us! We all want to create a new world where people and Pokémon are both free! Ladies and gentlemen, I ask you now... Please, release your Pokémon. And so I end my plea to you today. Thank you one and all for your attention."''

=====At N's Castle=====
* Outside the throne room
:''"Welcome, holder of the Light Stone{{sup/5|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup/5|W}}."''
:''"The castle that appeared as if it were enveloping the Pokémon League is a symbol. It means Unova will change."''
:''"The king of this castle is the strongest Trainer in the world. He is accompanied by the legendary Pokémon. He has defeated the Champion. Added to all that, his heart burns with the desire to improve the world. If that's not what makes a hero, what more do you need?"''
:''"Now that the stage is set, we can seize people's minds and hearts. We can bring into being the world that I--no, that Team Plasma--desires more easily than you can imagine! We and only we will use Pokémon, and we shall rule the powerless populace!"''
:''"I've been waiting so long for this! I've kept my silence so no one could piece together what I planned. Now, those painful days are at an end!"''
:''"Go! Onward!"''
:''"Discover whether you have what it takes to be a hero!"''
:''"Go! Holder of the Light Stone{{sup/5|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup/5|W}}! In this room, you can learn whether you, too, can be a hero!"''

* After N is defeated
:''"After all of that, do you think you're still worthy of sharing the name Harmonia with me? You good-for-nothing boy!"''
:''"To start with, I spurred N into pursuing ideals{{sup/5|Bl}}/the truth{{sup/5|W}}. The reason we reawakened the legendary Pokémon now was to give MY Team Plasma more power! Power to control the fearful masses! That at least was well done."''
:''"After saying you had to put your beliefs on the line and battle to see which one chosen by the legendary Pokémon was the true hero... You lost to an ordinary Trainer! There is such a thing as being too stupid! Add it up, and you are nothing more than a warped, defective boy who knows nothing but Pokémon..."''
:''"<Player>! I never would have thought the legendary Pokémon would choose a Trainer like you! It caught me completely off guard."''
:''"This doesn't change my goal. My plans have not been disturbed! In order to rule this world utterly, in order to manipulate the hearts of people who know nothing, I will have N be the king of Team Plasma. But, for that to work, you-- since you know the truth-- You must be eliminated!"''
:''"That was just a convenient lie that I needed to create Team Plasma. Use your head. What's to be gained from letting go of useful things like Pokémon? Certainly, manipulating Pokémon helps people expand their possibilities. That much, I can agree with. So it naturally follows that only I should be able to use Pokémon!"''
:''"You can say whatever you want. A Pokémon, even if it's revered as a deity, is still just a Pokémon. <Player>, so what if it chose you! That doesn't mean you're a threat. Come on! Now you'll face ME in battle! I can't wait to see the look on your face when you've lost all hope!"''
:'''''"I won't allow anyone to stop me! No matter who does what!"'''''

* After first move of battle
:''"I was expecting exactly that kind of move!"''

* When last Pokémon is at critical health
:''"What is going on here?"''

* When defeated
:''"My calculations... No! My careful schemes! The world should be mine!"''

* After being defeated
:''"What?! I created Team Plasma with my own hands. I'm absolutely perfect! I AM PERFECTION! I am the perfect ruler of a perfect new world!"''
:''"Mwa ha ha! Since I couldn't become the hero and obtain the legendary Pokémon myself... I prepared someone for that purpose--N! He's nothing more than a freak without a human heart. Do you think you're going to get through to a warped person like that?!"''

====Pokémon Black 2 and White 2====
=====At Giant Chasm=====
* Upon encounter in his office
:''"That blasted Colress!"'' (turns to the player and slams his cane) ''"The fool is far too committed to pure science. This is how he repays me for making him the boss of Team Plasma? How dare he put his personal intellectual curiosity before our ultimate mission of conquering Unova!"'' (steps right) ''"How fortunate for you! Few get to be the sole audience member for one of my speeches."'' (steps forward) ''"Team Plasma will use its knowledge and technology to take Kyurem's true power to its absolute limit and freeze the Unova region. The terrified people and Pokémon will bow at Team Plasma's...no...at MY feet!"'' (walks closer and slams his cane) ''"Kyurem is an empty being. The remnants of a certain Pokémon when it split into Reshiram and Zekrom... My desire is absolute rule of Unova!"'' (walks closer) ''"That's right! Kyurem will be the vessel into which my desires will be poured!"''
:(to a Shadow Triad member) ''"It's finally here! The wonderful era in which I am the absolute ruler of Unova has finally arrived! I'll let you take care of this!"''

* Upon encounter in the cave
:''"The Giant Chasm! This is the spot where Kyurem's power resonates. Here, Kyurem can use the full extent of its power and easily cover all of Unova in ice!"'' (slams his cane) ''"Kyurem, come!"''
:''"I have a memory that has continued to haunt me. Just one. That unpleasant look in your eyes reminds me of it. That aside, this is my gift to you to show my respect for making it this far. I'll freeze you solid right here so you can watch my glorious ascent!"'' (slams his cane) '''''"Kyurem! Glaciate!"'''''

* After Kyurem's attack is destroyed
:''"So you came... The freak without a human heart...N!"''
:''"Excellent! That was a moving expression of your determination! So the education I provided to make you king wasn't a complete waste, then! But I still haven't forgotten that even though I was kind enough to find you when you were living in the forest with Pokémon, and take you in, and care for you, in the end you were selfish and disrupted my plans. I was supposed to use your abilities to rule Unova!"''
:''"But I'll forgive you for that as well. Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}}, which you were kind enough to bring with you, can shatter{{sup/5|B2}}/melt{{sup/5|W2}} ice! Now you've saved me the work of searching for it! Well, actually, I knew you'd appear if we fired ice missiles into Opelucid City and you noticed the change!"''
* After Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}} reverts into its stone
:''"Kyurem! Absorb Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}}! Use Absofusion!"''
* After Kyurem and Zekrom{{sup/5|B2}}/Reshiram{{sup/5|W2}} are fused
:''"You fool... Last time, I was going to use you to capture people's hearts and minds to rule them! But this time, I'm simply going to use overwhelming power and rule with an iron fist! Do you understand? If you had simply become king, Unova would have remained beautiful!"''
:''"Come now, Trainer. This time no one will save you! But to make things interesting, I'll give you a chance. Let's see if you can stop THIS Kyurem!"'' (looks questioned)
:''"What's this? Your Poké Balls are trembling. Could your Pokémon be shaking with rage?"'' (slams his cane) ''"No! That's not possible! Simple tools don't have emotion or thought! Come! Challenge Kyurem! Just so you know, catching it is impossible! My cane emits signals that disrupt the function of all Poké Balls!"''

* Before Kyurem is defeated
:''"Come now! I want to see your face at the moment you lose all hope! Battle to protect Unova! I've prepared the finest stage, and it's wasted on a bit player like you! Lose and go down in flames!"''

* After Kyurem is defeated
:''"I can't believe it! The Black{{sup/5|B2}}/White{{sup/5|W2}} Kyurem I went to all the trouble of preparing! How irritating! Now I have to go recapture Kyurem, don't I? But first, I'll take down this disgusting Trainer with my own hand! This time I WILL succeed! No matter what they try, no one will be able to stop me!"''

* Upon first non-KO HP loss
:''"I was expecting exactly that kind of move!"''

* Last Pokémon at critical health
:''"What's this?! This is nothing like I expected!"''

* When defeated
:''"Could it be?! My plans for complete and total world domination foiled yet again? No! It mustn't be! I couldn't have been defeated by some random Trainer from who knows where!"''

* After being defeated
:(steps back) ''"How can this be? I'm the creator of Team Plasma! I'm perfect! I'm the absolute ruler who will change the world! And I've lost to some unknown Trainer not once, but TWICE?!"'' (paces, then turns to N) ''"I can't accept this! This isn't possible! I can't be bested by fools who can't even use Pokémon correctly!"''
:(turns away) '''''"Shut your mouth! Shut up! Shut up! Shut UP! Don't talk like a person, you freak! No real person could talk to Pokémon!"'''''

==In the anime==
[[File:Ghetsis anime.png|thumb|250px|right|Ghetsis in the anime]]
[[File:BW121 Ceremony.png|thumb|250px|right|Conducting the Ceremony of Revival]]
Ghetsis is the head of Team Plasma, and the main antagonist of the ''Best Wishes! Season 2: Episode N'' arc. He made his debut in ''[[BW112|Team Plasma's Pokémon Power Plot!]]'', where he was seen briefly contacting [[Colress]] via a hologram communicator. He and Colress discussed the current status of the Pokémon control experiment, and when {{Ash}}, {{ashfr}} and [[Looker]] approached Team Plasma's laboratory, Ghetsis ordered Colress to turn the experimental Pokémon loose on them.

He appeared again, this time in person, in ''[[BW117|Team Plasma's Pokémon Manipulation!]]''. He was seen contacting Colress for an update on his Pokémon control experiment. Later, he spoke to several {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s, who were spying on the excavations made at the [[White Ruins]] as well as looking for {{an|N}} and conducting the mysterious "[[Genesect Army|Project G]]" and "Project F."

Ghetsis appeared in ''[[BW118|Secrets From Out of the Fog!]]'' discussing his plans with Colress and {{un|Angie}}. He also was seen in flashbacks to N's past, in which he raised N alongside [[Anthea and Concordia]] and wild Pokémon. In a later flashback, a ceremony he led in [[N's Castle]] involving N and the [[Seven Sages]] was interrupted by {{p|Reshiram}}, infuriating him.

He also had a brief appearance in ''[[BW119|Meowth, Colress and Team Rivalry!]]'', meeting with Colress, Angie and {{un|Brad}} via hologram and revealing the existence of the {{DL|Dragon Stones|Light Stone}} to them.

He appeared briefly via a communicator [[BW120]] before arriving at the White Ruins in [[BW121]]. With his followers having subdued Team Plasma's enemies, Ghetsis took the Light Stone and placed it on a pedestal in the ruins, then used his staff to initiate the ritual leading to Reshiram's awakening.

Ghetsis appeared in [[BW122]], where, with the help of Colress's machine, he took control of Reshiram. Despite turning it on his enemies, however, he lost control of Reshiram when Colress's machine was destroyed. Ultimately, he was arrested by [[Looker]] along with the rest of his followers.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Ghetsis Adventures.png|thumb|200px|right|Ghetsis in Pokémon Adventures]]
Ghetsis makes his first appearance in [[Accumula Town]], where he introduces [[Team Plasma]] and their campaign to the townspeople. He gives a speech asking the townspeople to free their Pokémon so that they can be truly equal to them. Although some were not swayed by his words, Ghetsis did manage to convince some of the townspeople to release their Pokémon into the wild.

During the attack on [[Nacrene City]] for the Dark Stone, Ghetsis had a Plasma Grunt trick {{adv|Black}} into revealing where it was kept hidden. After reaching the room, Ghetsis attacked Black and paralyzed him with his {{p|Eelektross}}. With the Dark Stone now in his possession, Ghetsis delivers the stone to N so that he can awaken the legendary Pokémon Zekrom.

When Team Plasma attacks the Pokémon League, Ghetsis uses [[Hawes]] as hostage to prevent [[Brycen]] from freeing the kidnapped Gym Leaders. He puts Brycen and the other Gym Leaders on crucifixes to taunt Black and others. Black attempts to retaliate, but his entire team is easily defeated by Ghetsis's {{p|Hydreigon}}. When no one is able to stop Team Plasma, several Trainers that Black met on his journey offer to help combat Ghetsis and the other Sages so that Black can move on.

None of Hydreigon's moves are known.}}

===In the Pocket Monsters BW manga===
Ghetsis makes an appearance in {{OBP|Pocket Monsters BW|Kosaku Anakubo}} where he is discussing plans with a Team Plasma member on what to do with the Pokémon being released. {{TP|Red|Clefairy}} disguises himself as a ninja and listens in.

==Trivia==
[[File:Ghetsis right arm.png|thumb|right|Ghetsis's right arm in the Black and White opening]]
* The top of Ghetsis's robes in {{2v2|Black|White}} resemble the {{wp|battlement}}s of a castle.
* Ghetsis is 2.00 m (6'6") tall.
* Ghetsis is the only Trainer fought in the main story's final battle that is not the regional Champion.
* In {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, Ghetsis is the first antagonist in the main series games to try to incapacitate the player. He attempts to have Kyurem freeze the player with {{m|Glaciate}}, but that move cannot cause freezing when used in battle. Before the English releases of {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}}, this threat was mistranslated by various sources as a threat to kill and impale them using Kyurem's icicles.
* In Black 2 and White 2, all of Ghetsis's Pokémon he also had in Black and White are two levels lower in Normal Mode and six levels lower in Easy Mode. However, they are two levels higher in Challenge Mode.
* Ghetsis's right arm is always concealed, except for in Pokémon Black and White's opening, in which it appears discolored.
* Ghetsis is the only villainous team leader in the anime to be arrested successfully at the conclusion of his plot.

'''Clay''' (Japanese: '''ヤーコン''' ''Yacon'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Driftveil City]]'s Gym, known officially as the [[Driftveil Gym]]. He specializes in {{type2|Ground}} Pokémon. He gives the {{badge|Quake}} to Trainers who defeat him.

==In the games==
Clay appears in {{game|Black and White|s}} as the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Driftveil City]]'s Gym. This Gym will be the fifth to be challenged by the player. Trainers who defeat Clay will receive the Quake Badge. Shortly after, he appears on {{rt|6|Unova}} to aid the player in removing the {{p|Galvantula}} web blocking the entrance to the [[Chargestone Cave]]. After his {{p|Krokorok}} removes the web, he gives {{TM|78|Bulldoze}} to the player. He also reappears again at [[N's Castle]] where he and the other [[Unova]] Gym Leaders hold off the [[Seven Sages]].

When the player is cornered by the Seven Sages, Clay is the first of the Unova Gym Leaders to march in. He asks the player if he is tired out yet, then the rest of the Unova Gym Leaders, with the exception of Cilan, Chili and Cress, walk in and take positions opposite each sage in pairs. Drayden then tells the player to proceed in pursuit of N.

Once the player gains access to the Driftveil Gym, Clay will be standing outside of the Gym, opposite [[Ghetsis]] and some {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s. Ghetsis refers to Clay as the "Miner King".

When the player encounters the Driftveil Gym Leader inside of Twist Mountain on his/her first visit after obtaining the Mistralton Gym Badge, he will say that Twist Mountain belongs to him, and that the player and Cheren can train on it should they wish to do so.

One of the Trainers the player can battle inside the Driftveil Gym says that Clay is a company president. However, it is not known what business Clay actually owns. Another Trainer that can be battled inside the Driftveil Gym says that Clay stays at the bottom of the Gym to remind himself that he once had nothing. A backpacker inside the [[Nacrene City]] Pokémon Center says that Clay found fossils on [[Twist Mountain]] and donated them to the [[Nacrene Gym|Nacrene City Museum]].

:''"Ya can say whatever ya want. But what's important is y'all showed up, and then [[Team Plasma]] escaped. Maybe it's a little heavy-handed, but you oughtta start lookin' for Team Plasma, too.

:''"...Well, I can't tell if yer lyin' or not, but I reckon you've won this without a fight. Hrrmph. Fine. Take 'em and git!"''

Don't know why there's a nest here, but if there are folks havin' problems, th' Gym Leader's th' one ta fix it. Krokorok! Take it out! And [[TM78|this here TM]]'s yours. It's my favorite TM, so ya can teach it ta all of yer Pokémon! It's called {{m|Bulldoze}}. This move does damage and lowers the {{stat|Speed}} of any Pokémon it hits. Some {{type|Ground}} Pokémon move a little slower than ya'd like. If ya use Bulldoze right, ya can cover that weakness! I don't know how good you really are, but if ya think ya can go, go wherever, and if ya think ya can do somethin', keep doin' it. Do things how ya want! Decide yer own limits.''"

:''"By th'by... You folks seen that Team Plasma crowd lately? After all the trouble, we Gym Leaders met up and had a chat. But we've got no clue where they are. It's like they're hidin' under a rock. Well, not much to do but wait for 'em to move. Anyhow, this's none o' yer concern. Squirts like the two of ya should just enjoy travelin' with yer Pokémon. Twist Mountain's a fine place to explore! You'll have some fun if you just leave this here path... Weeell... Better ya just see it yerself, 'stead o' listenin' to me yammer. Be seein' ya, sprouts! Feel free to train yerselves on my mountain fer as long's ya like."''

Clay made his first appearance in ''[[BW057|The Mighty Accelguard to the Rescue!]]''. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} met him right after they had arrived at [[Driftveil City]], and Ash asked him for a battle. However, he refused to battle Ash at the time because he had to check out a mine at the edge of town. Ash would try to battle Clay again in ''[[BW059|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 1]]'' but he refused yet again. He claimed that he could not have a battle with him if he did not have any {{DL|Herbal medicine|Revival Herb}}s. When Ash asked what they were, Clay criticized him for not knowing and said that he probably wouldn't be worth battling. However, he did promise a battle if he brought him some Revival Herbs.

After Ash obtained the herbs in ''[[BW060|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 2]]'', he immediately went to Clay in [[BW061|the next episode]]. He was surprised that Ash was able to get the herbs and finally accepted his challenge. Ash managed to defeat Clay and he gave him the {{badge|Quake}}.

Clay is shown to have started his life as a miner when he was around Ash’s age with his Excadrill. One of his mines would later become the [[Driftveil Gym]]. He greatly values experience through hard work and views Ash’s youth and inexperience with contempt, though he later gains new respect for the young trainer after their battle. Clay prefers a frontal assault style of battling and becomes enraged when Ash uses strategy like his Snivy’s [[Attract]] to stop his Palpitoad.

However, finally Oshawott was able to clean his eyes with his own {{m|Water Gun}} and then defeat Krokorok with {{m|Razor Shell}}.

Snivy started by using {{m|Attract}} on Palpitoad, which became infatuated, thus making him unable to attack and an easy target for Snivy, which hit him with all of her attacks and finally defeated him with a {{m|Leaf Storm}}.

Palpitoad's known moves are {{m|Hydro Pump}}, {{m|Sludge Bomb}} and {{m|Rock Smash}}.}}

Thanks to its [[Ability]] {{a|Sturdy}}, Roggenrola could avoid being knocked out by Excadrill's {{m|Horn Drill}}. Later Roggenrola [[evolution|evolved]] into a {{AP|Boldore}} and defeated the Subterrene Pokémon with its newly-learned {{m|Rock Blast}} and {{m|Rock Smash}} attacks.

According to Clay, Excadrill has been his Pokémon since he was a kid, and has helped him with digging out and expanding the mine he was working on that would eventually become the current form of the Driftveil Gym.

Excadrill's known moves are {{m|Rapid Spin}}, {{m|Horn Drill}}, {{m|Drill Run}} and {{m|Rock Smash}}.}}

Clay makes his first appearance reporting the discovery of a {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Dark Stone|mysterious stone}} he found at [[Twist Mountain]] to [[Lenora]] after her Gym battle with {{adv|Black}}. It is shown that his Pokémon are guarding the mysterious stone while the [[Shadow Triad]] spy on them from afar. Later, Clay goes to the Driftveil Drawbridge to fix it after it breaks, preventing anyone from crossing it. It was revealed that the cause of the malfunction was a {{p|Zorua}} that {{adv|Black}} had met in Castelia.

Sometime later, Clay faces Black in a Gym battle and is defeated by Black's newly-captured {{p|Tirtouga}}. Later, they go through the Chargestone Cave and arrive in Mistralton City. They go to the [[Celestial Tower]] to meet up with the other Unova Gym Leaders.

After meeting up with the other Gym Leaders, Clay and his allies leave to [[Nacrene City]] to protect the Dark Stone from being stolen by the Shadow Triad. Despite their teamwork, Clay and the other Gym Leaders are defeated by the Shadow Triad's trump card, the [[Kami trio]].

'''Whitney's Miltank''' (Japanese: '''アカネのミルタンク''' ''Akane's Miltank'') is [[Whitney]]'s main [[Pokémon battle|battling]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in the {{pkmn|anime}} and {{pkmn|games}}.

==In the anime==

Miltank appeared in the episode ''[[EP158|A Goldenrod Opportunity]]'' where she battled [[Ash Ketchum]] in a Gym battle. With a powerful {{m|Rollout}} attack, Miltank was able to take out all of Ash's Pokémon, easily thereby defeating him.

Miltank also appeared in ''[[EP159|A Dairy Tale Ending]]'' where Ash found out that the reason why Miltank was so strong was because it trained by using {{m|Rollout}} to roll up and down a steep hill.

[[Team Rocket]] then appeared to steal all of their Pokémon in a giant barrel-shaped mecha which rolled on the hill. Ash used {{TP|Ash|Totodile}} to create holes on the ground to slow the mecha down and then used {{TP|Ash|Pikachu}} to blast them off again. He realized he could use the same strategy against Whitney.

He used {{AP|Cyndaquil}} to tire Miltank out, {{AP|Totodile}}'s {{m|Water Gun}} attack to dig trenches to divert Miltank's Rollout, and subsequently had {{AP|Pikachu}} knock her out. With this win Ash earned the {{badge|Plain}}.

Miltank was later seen in {{an|Lyra}}'s fantasy in ''[[DP147|Bagged Then Tagged!]]'', along Whitney, as well as [[Morty]] and his {{p|Gengar}}, when Lyra mentioned that her next Gym battle would be against either of those two Trainers.

Miltank also appears in the [[Pokémon Gold & Silver: The Golden Boys]] manga. She first appears in ''[[GB08|For Pikachu's Sake!! The Search For The Missing Farfetch'd]]'' as a use of transportation. Miltank battles Gold's {{p|Bayleef}}. During the battle, when her Rollout crashes at Bayleef's Protect, she accidentally causes a rock slide that almost hurts Cleffa. However, she was able to rescue Cleffa by using Rollout to get to Cleffa faster. Later, Whitney sends out Miltank to deal with a {{p|Sudowoodo|giant tree}} that was blocking the path to {{rt|36|Johto}}. However, her Tackle was proven ineffective. In ''[[GB13|A Promise Given to Miltank]]'', she battles with Gold's {{p|Croconaw}} during their rematch. However, Miltank becomes very sick along with the other Miltank at [[MooMoo Farm]] and the only way to cure Whitney's Miltank was to feed her several [[Berry|Berries]] before sundown. After Gold and Whitney find some berries for Miltank, Miltank is fed the berries and she starts to feel better.

'''Cynthia's Garchomp''' (Japanese: '''シロナのガブリアス''' ''Shirona's Gaburias'') is [[Cynthia]]'s main {{pkmn|battle|battling}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in the anime, manga and games.

==In the anime==
Cynthia's Garchomp first appeared in ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training]]'' where she was seen battling [[Lucian]]'s {{p|Bronzong}}. Even though Bronzong was shown to be a powerful Pokémon in the battle against {{an|Dawn}}'s {{AP|Buizel}} in ''[[DP035|An Elite Meet and Greet!]]'', the Bronze Bell Pokémon's {{m|Flash Cannon}} barely did any damage to Garchomp, who knocked it out with {{m|Giga Impact}}. In the same episode, she battled against [[Paul]] when Cynthia accepted Paul's challenge for a [[full battle]]. Once again her incredible resistance was showcased, as Cynthia allowed it to absorb {{TP|Paul|Chimchar}}'s {{m|Fire Spin}} and {{TP|Paul|Weavile}}'s {{m|Blizzard}}, before knocking out the former with {{m|Dig}} and the latter with {{m|Dragon Rush}}. It easily overpowered his {{TP|Paul|Murkrow}}, with Giga Impact easily besting {{m|Sky Attack}}, before fighting against his powerful [[starter Pokémon]], {{TP|Paul|Torterra}}. Torterra managed to inflict damage on Garchomp, immobilised from Giga Impact, with {{m|Giga Drain}}. When it tried to follow up with {{m|Frenzy Plant}}, however, Garchomp pried apart the roots and knocked Torterra out with a {{m|Brick Break}} to the head.

Garchomp appeared again in ''[[DP096|Losing Its Lustrous]]'' and ''[[DP097|Double Team Turnover!]]'', where she was used in {{pkmn|battle|battling}} [[Team Galactic]]'s Pokémon. Its strength was demonstrated in its simple defeat of [[Saturn]]'s {{p|Bronzor}}. She also fought [[Mars]]' {{p|Purugly}} and [[Saturn's Toxicroak]] with help from Ash, Dawn, and Cynthia's {{p|Gastrodon}}. However, they ultimately failed to prevent [[Team Galactic]] obtaining the Lustrous Orb.

Garchomp also briefly appeared in ''[[DP100|Aiding the Enemy!]]'' where she battled against {{EF|Aaron}}'s {{p|Drapion}} on [[television]]. Whilst the winner of that bout is unclear, because Cynthia's Gastrodon was her final Pokémon against Aaron, it is clear that one of his Pokémon succeeded in defeating Garchomp.

She also appeared along with Cynthia in a cameo appearance in the beginning of ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'' battling {{FB|Tower Tycoon|Palmer}}'s {{p|Milotic}}.

She also appeared along with Cynthia in ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', where she easily knocked out [[Jupiter]]'s {{p|Skuntank}} with a single Giga Impact and restrained Jupiter herself. She then bore [[Dawn's Piplup]] into battle against Team Galactic, and used {{m|Draco Meteor}} to help attack the Red Chains holding {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}.

Garchomp was shown on TV winning a close battle between [[Flint's Infernape]] in ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]''. Infernape fought well but was unable to withstand Dragon Rush and was defeated.

==In the games==
As mentioned, Garchomp is also Cynthia's main Pokémon in the games. She has appeared in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, and again in {{game|Black and White|s}}. Somewhat similar to [[Whitney's Miltank]], Garchomp is widley known for being very hard to defeat due to its high [[level]] compared to the Elite Four which the player fights prior, and inherently high stats.

===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Cynthia Garchomp Adventures.png|thumb|200px|right|Garchomp in Pokémon Adventures]]
Garchomp is Cynthia's strongest Pokémon and her main battler. Garchomp is well trained enough that she can battle even without her Trainer giving her commands. She battled [[Cyrus]] and his Pokémon in the Celestic Ruins but he managed to outsmart her and use her moves against her for his own gain. She was later used against him in the Galactic HQ holding where she fought his Gyarados, despite using her strongest moves, her inexperience with her newest move, Draco Meteor, caused it to be weaker than it should have been and thus was unable to defeat him. After Cyrus escaped, she took {{Adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}}, and {{adv|Platinum}} to the Spear Pillar for the final battle against Team Galactic.

Garchomp has appeared in DP Adventure as her main Pokémon. She sent it out to show off its power to Hareta back in ''[[DPA07|Dialga's Secret Keys!]]''. Garchomp reappeared in ''[[DPA23|A New Battle Begins]]'' where it faced off against [[Mitsumi]]'s {{p|Infernape}}. It fought using {{m|Giga Impact}} while Infernape was using {{m|Overheat}}. It is unknown who won though.

==Trivia==
* Like all of Cynthia's Pokémon, Garchomp has a 31 IV in each of its stats in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}.
* Although Garchomp has never been shown losing to a single opponent, in ''[[DP100|Aiding the Enemy!]]'' (Japanese version only), the commentator on TV mentioned that Cynthia was using her last Pokémon to defeat {{E4|Aaron}}, meaning Garchomp must have lost during that battle.

'''Ghetsis Harmonia''' (Japanese: '''ゲーチス・ハルモニア''' ''Gēchisu Harmonia'') is one of the [[Seven Sages]] of [[Team Plasma]].

Ghetsis is the mastermind responsible for orchestrating the events leading to the conflicts between the Team Plasma, and the [[trainer]]s and [[gym leader]]s of [[Unova]]. To hide this he puts on a facade of noble goals, claiming he only wishes to free all [[Pokemon]] from humans. He is the main antagonist of [[Pokemon Black and White]]

==In the games==
{{spoiler}}
Ghetsis first appears in [[Accumula Town]] trying to rally its citizens. After that, he appears at several points in the game trying to warn the citizens of the oncoming change and is often the one that comes to rescue other [[Seven Sages]] if they are nearing arrest. After the player and [[Alder]] come to the Relic Castle he is already there and tells them that if they are to battle N, they must retrieve the Light{{sup|Bl}}/Dark{{sup|W}} Stone. He also appears making a similar speech to his one in Accumula Town in [[Opelucid City]]. He later appears at the castle during [[N]]'s takeover and taunts the player before battling N. After the player defeats N, he reveals he has been using N and revived {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}} for N to use, and calls N a disappointment. He reveals that his and Team Plasma's motive for stealing Pokémon was a lie all along and that Ghetsis wanted to ensure that he was the only person in Unova with Pokémon, so he could dominate the region (this was previously foreshadowed by him referring to himself during speeches referring to Team Plasma's goals before correcting himself and saying Team Plasma). According to a Grunt in the castle, he was even learning of ways to manipulate hearts of people. [[Alder]] and [[Cheren]] both hear the truth from Ghetsis. Ghetsis battles the player in a rage, despite N's protest. After the battle, Alder and Cheren arrest Ghetsis and take him away. He is not seen again.

When the player meets the [[Shadow Triad]] for the final time, it is revealed that they rescued Ghetsis from captivity and that he is currently on the run. He has lost everything, including his Pokémon, and only the Shadow Triad are still loyal to him. For some reason, he has ordered the Shadow Triad to stop looking for him.

===Quotes===
====At Accumula Town====
:''"My name is Ghetsis. I am here representing Team Plasma. Today, ladies and gentlemen, I would like to talk to you about Pokémon liberation.''
:''"I'm sure most of you believe that we humans and Pokémon are partners that have come to live together because we want and need each other. However... Is that really the truth? Have you ever considered that perhaps we humans... only assume that this is the truth?''
:''"Pokémon are subject to the selfish commands of Trainers... They get pushed around when they are our "partners" at work... Can anyone say with confidence that there is no truth in what I'm saying?''
:''"Now, ladies and gentlemen, Pokémon are different from humans. They are living beings that contain unknown potential. They are living beings from whom we humans have much to learn. Tell me, what is our responsibility toward these wonderful beings called Pokémon?"''
:''"That's right! We must liberate the Pokémon! Then, and only then, will humans and Pokémon truly be equals. Everyone, I end my words here today by imploring you to consider the relationship between people and Pokémon... and the correct way to proceed. We sincerely appreciate your attention."''

====At Castelia City====
:''"My word, if it isn't the Gym Leader, Burgh."''
:''"Indeed... No matter. We already have an exceptional base of operations. Is everyone familiar with the legend of the founding of the Unova region?"''
:''"The truth is this... The black/white dragon appeared before a hero who sought the ideal/true way to knit together a world full of warring people. This black/white Dragon-type Pokémon shared its knowledge--and bared its fangs at those who stood against it. Together, the power of this Pokémon and the hero brought unity to the hearts of everyone in the land, and that is how Unova was created.''
:''"We shall bring back the hero and that Pokémon to Unova once again! If we can win people's hearts and minds, we can easily create the world that I--I mean, Team Plasma--desires!"''
:''"Myah-ha-ha-ha! You are quite hard to figure out--a little more intelligent than I'd expected. I am fond of intelligent people, you see. You'll enjoy hearing about this... From every corner of the world, I have gathered knowledgeable people for our king's benefit. You could call them the Seven Sages. Very well! We will submit to your opinion and be on our way.''
:''"That girl over there... Return her Pokémon!"''
:''"The friendship between Pokémon and people can be very touching. But, in order to liberate Pokémon from foolish people, we will revive the legend of Unova--and win the hearts and minds of everyone. Farewell..."''

====At Driftveil City====
:''"Clay. It's a pleasure to meet you. I am Ghetsis, of Team Plasma. I've come to pick up my associates who are in your care."''
:''"What's this? It seems as if there has been some misunderstanding. We only free Pokémon from wicked people."''
:''"Team Plasma also has an interest in Driftveil City. And we have many, many more members besides those who are here..."''
:''"A decision worthy of a businessman called the Miner King. Your grasp of the situation is outstanding. Well then, we will be taking our colleagues off your hands..."''
:''"Don't worry, my fellow servant of the king... We are two of the Seven Sages, are we not? Well then, everyone, I expect that we will meet again somewhere."''

====In Relic Castle====
:''"It looks like everyone is here. It seems you are working hard to resurrect Reshiram{{sup|Bl}}/Zekrom{{sup|W}}, the other Dragon-type Pokémon, aren't you? But it appears the Light Stone{{sup|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup|W}} you seek is not here.''
:''"Well then, congratulations are in order! <Player>, you were chosen by our king. If you truly desire to keep the world as it is, where Pokémon live alongside people, you must bring the other Dragon-type Pokémon spoken of in legend and battle with our king. Otherwise, Team Plasma will steal every Pokémon from every person in the world and release them all!"''
:''"What's this? Champion Alder, even though illness took the Pokémon that had been your partner for many years, and you haven't had a serious battle in all that time... Even you, who ordered the Elite Four to protect the Pokémon League and left to wander the Unova region alone... Even a Champion like you now wants to protect a world where Pokémon and people live together? Team Plasma's king will show the people of Unova that he is stronger than a Champion who keeps Pokémon bound! And just like the hero who founded Unova, he will be accompanied by the legendary Pokémon. He will give this order! 'Trainers, release your Pokémon!' For this, we have prepared a suitable castle for the legendary Zekrom{{sup|Bl}}/Reshiram{{sup|W}} and our king!"''
:''"Our king has no interest in you. He has already determined that victory against you is assured."''
:''"Of course not. I'm doing this out of kindness. Yes, kindness. I'm making sure the Champion doesn't get hurt for no reason. Granted, the moment when someone loses all hope... I really do love to watch that moment. Well then, farewell."''

====At Tubeline Bridge====
:''"Excellent. It seems that you have obtained the Light Stone{{sup|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup|W}}. I congratulate you on a job well done.''
:''"It is my lord N's thought that the two holders of the legendary Pokémon should put their beliefs on the line and strive to find which is the true hero.''
:''"This is not necessary, however. From his infancy, I provided him with the education required to become the hero of legend. Indeed, he has been so acknowledged by the legendary Pokémon. ...Such purity of purpose is his.''
:''"The liberation of Pokémon of which I... Of which Team Plasma speaks is the separation of Pokémon from foolish people! That's the truth! All Trainers will become helpless to resist us! We alone will be able to use Pokémon!''
:''"The preparations are complete!''
:''"When my perfect plan is set in motion, first a few gullible Pokémon Trainers who are unable to resist Team Plasma will release their Pokémon. Then that number will become a hundred, then a thousand... In no time, even the Gym Leaders and the Champion will become unable to fight us. Having a Pokémon will be considered a bad thing! Even people like the sad little Bianca, whose Pokémon was stolen in Castelia, will be unable to face public opinion and will release their Pokémon! That's the kind of world we'll make!''
:''"You may have the Stone, but there's no chance whatsoever that the legendary Pokémon will accept you as the hero. So, if you're not willing to hand over your precious Pokémon, I suggest you search for some courage-- because you're going to need it!"''

====At Opelucid City====
:''"That's correct! Our lord N has combined his power with the legendary Dragon-type Pokémon and intends to create a new world. We herald the return of the hero of Unova, founder of this region.''
:''"Pokémon are different from people. They are living beings who contain unknown potential.''
:''"They are living beings from whom we humans have much to learn.''
:''"They are beings whose greatness we should acknowledge! Beings who should be freed from our oppression!''
:''"We, Team Plasma, invite you to join us! We all want to create a new world where people and Pokémon are both free! Ladies and gentlemen, I ask you now... Please, release your Pokémon. And so I end my plea to you today. Thank you one and all for your attention."''

====At N's Castle====
* Outside the throne room
:''"Welcome, holder of the Light Stone{{sup|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup|W}}."''
:''"The castle that appeared as if it were enveloping the Pokémon League is a symbol. It means Unova will change."''
:''"The king of this castle is the strongest Trainer in the world. He is accompanied by the legendary Pokémon. He has defeated the Champion. Added to all that, his heart burns with the desire to improve the world. If that's not what makes a hero, what more do you need?"''
:''"Now that the stage is set, we can seize people's minds and hearts. We can bring into being the world that I--no, that Team Plasma--desires more easily than you can imagine! We and only we will use Pokémon, and we shall rule the powerless populace!"''
:''"I've been waiting so long for this! I've kept my silence so no one could piece together what I planned. Now, those painful days are at an end!""'
:''"Go! Onward!"''
:''"Discover whether you have what it takes to be a hero!"''
:''"Go! Holder of the Light Stone{{sup|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup|W}}! In this room, you can learn whether you, too, can be a hero!"''

* After N is defeated
:''"After all of that, do you think you're still worthy of sharing the name Harmonia with me? You good-for-nothing boy!"''
:''"To start with, I spurred N into pursuing ideals{{sup|Bl}}/the truth{{sup|W}}. The reason we reawakened the legendary Pokémon now was to give MY Team Plasma more power! Power to control the fearful masses! That at least was well done."''
:''"After saying you had to put your beliefs on the line and battle to see which one chosen by the legendary Pokémon was the true hero... You lost to an ordinary Trainer! There is such a thing as being too stupid! Add it up, and you are nothing more than a warped, defective boy who knows nothing but Pokémon..."''
:''"<Player>! I never would have thought the legendary Pokémon would choose a Trainer like you! It caught me completely off guard."''
:''"This doesn't change my goal. My plans have not been disturbed! In order to rule this world utterly, in order to manipulate the hearts of people who know nothing, I will have N be the king of Team Plasma. But, for that to work, you-- since you know the truth-- You must be eliminated!"''
:''"That was just a convenient lie that I needed to create Team Plasma. Use your head. What's to be gained from letting go of useful things like Pokémon? Certainly, manipulating Pokémon helps people expand their possibilities. That much, I can agree with. So it naturally follows that only I should be able to use Pokémon!"''
:''"You can say whatever you want. A Pokémon, even if it's revered as a deity, is still just a Pokémon. <Player>, so what if it chose you! That doesn't mean you're a threat. Come on! Now you'll face ME in battle! I can't wait to see the look on your face when you've lost all hope!"''
:''"I won't allow anyone to stop me! No matter who does what!"''

* After first move of battle
:''"I was expecting exactly that kind of move!"''

*When defeated
:''"My calculations... No! My careful schemes! The world should be mine!"''

*After being defeated
:''"What?! I created Team Plasma with my own hands. I'm absolutely perfect! I AM PERFECTION! I am the perfect ruler of a perfect new world!"''
:''"Mwa ha ha! Since I couldn't become the hero and obtain the legendary Pokémon myself... I prepared someone for that purpose--N! He's nothing more than a freak without a human heart. Do you think you're going to get through to a warped person like that?!"''
