'''Slowking''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヤドキング''' ''Yadoking'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Slowpoke}} when [[trade]]d while holding a [[King's Rock]]. It is one of Slowpoke's final forms, the other being {{p|Slowbro}}.

In [[Galar]], Slowking has a {{2t|Poison|Psychic}}-type [[regional form]], introduced in {{g|Sword and Shield}}'s 1.3.0 patch. It evolves from Galarian Slowpoke when exposed to a [[Galarica Wreath]]. It is one of Galarian Slowpoke's final forms, the other being Galarian Slowbro.

==Biology==
Slowking is a bipedal {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a {{p|Shellder}} latched onto its head. It is primarily pink, with a pale yellow muzzle and scaled belly. Its feet and hands each have a single clawed digit, while the hands also have a clawless thumb. Around its neck is a spiny ruff with alternating red and white stripes. The Shellder on its head has a spiral shape with two horns near the base. A red gem resides in the center of the Shellder. The Shellder's eyes are visible on the back of the Shellder.

Shellder's bite releases venom into Slowpoke's brain, causing a chemical chain-reaction that unlocks a superior intelligence and extraordinary power. More venom is injected into Slowking every time it yawns. The more venom the Shellder releases, the more intelligent Slowking will become. However, if the Shellder on its head comes off, it will forget everything it has learned and would [[devolution|revert]] itself back to Slowpoke. Slowking's intelligence can match that of a human and it constantly attempts to learn more. Its inspiration and intuition are also highly developed, and Slowking is able to stay calm in any situation and plan situations with effective results. This allows Slowking to solve anything despite nobody understanding it. [[M02|In the anime]], it can [[Talking Pokémon|understand and speak the human language]].

According to [[The Complete Pokémon Pocket Guide]], it has such an easygoing personality that it is never stressed. Slowking is rarely found in the wild, though it can be found {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|by the water's edge}}. It [[Slowking's Day|has been seen]] eating seaweed and drinking coconut milk. In [[Alola]], Slowking occasionally matches wits with {{p|Oranguru}} by the beach.

In Galar, Shellder's bite causes a different chemical reaction in the brain due to the Galarica spices that make up Galarian Slowpoke's diet, causing Galarian Slowking to take on a unique appearance. It has a slight color difference with purple spots on its tail and paws, and has a long black collar. The Shellder has grown more dominant, appearing completely different with a darker gray coloration and larger size, covering Slowking's eyes and nostrils. At the center is a purple spot with a green orb and two black eyes. The horns on top of shell are three round spikes with two more spikes on the middle of shell. The bottom parts are sharp with two purple shaped tubes from which poison may be secreted. The Shellder's teeth have also grown in size and are broad and flat instead of sharp; the same holds true for its wearer.

Shellder's intelligence is said to have increased to the point its psychic powers puts other {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon to shame. Shellder also can control Slowking. Galarian Slowking have been observed gathering in groups to chant mysterious spells to use in battle or communicate with each other. It is unknown what Galarian Slowking is trying to say as the incantations have yet to be fully understood<ref>https://swordshield.pokemon.com/en-us/expansionpass/pokemon/galarian-slowking/</ref>. Galarian Slowking can create strange potions from its internal toxins and spells.

Galarian Slowking is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of using the move {{m|Eerie Spell}}.

=====Other=====
In ''[[EP260|A Crowning Achievement]]'', a colony of Slowpoke was attempting to reach the King's Rock in order to evolve into one so that they could help save the colony from a drought. The Slowpoke were faced with many problems since the King's Rock was also surrounded by {{p|Shellder}}, and whenever they failed to reach it, they would evolve into a Slowbro instead. One Slowpoke [[nickname]]d Arthur, which was owned by [[Alice Telesu]], tried reaching the King's Rock and eventually succeeded. In the end, he left Alice in order to be the leader of the colony. Arthur reappeared in {{AP|Larvitar}}'s vision in ''[[EP263|Address Unown]]''.

{{main|Slowking (M02)}}
Slowking appeared in {{OBP|Pokémon the Movie 2000|graphic novel|the graphic novel adaptation}} of ''[[M02|The Power of One]]''.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
A hint of Slowking's existence first appeared in ''[[PS083|Bang the Drum, Slowbro]]'', while [[Lorelei]] was musing on {{p|Slowbro}}'s enhanced abilities after it had been bitten by {{p|Shellder}}. She remarked that {{p|Slowpoke}} would likely have further improved abilities if it was bitten on its head.

Slowking physically debuted in ''[[PS153|Oh, It's Ho-Oh!]]'', under the ownership of [[Sham]]. It was able to use its {{m|Snore}} alongside [[Carl]]'s {{p|Magcargo}} to attack even when asleep. However, a double {{m|Giga Drain}} defeated them both.

In''[[PS431|The Final Dimensional Duel I]]'', [[Charon]] was seen in possession of a Slowking. It was used to provoke {{p|Giratina}} into attacking {{adv|Pearl}}, and later was used to attack Pearl again when Diamond was "killed". It was later abandoned toward the end of the arc.

In ''[[PAXY24|Pyroar Breathes]]'', [[Olympia]] has a Slowking, which was used to help stop the [[Ultimate weapon]] from activating.

===In the Pokémon Gold & Silver: The Golden Boys manga===
A talking Slowking appears in ''[[GB19|The Truth About The Mysterious Whirl Islands!!]]''. It met Gold and Chris when they got stranded on Whirl Islands. It initially thought they came to challenge {{p|Lugia}}, but they knew nothing about the [[Silver Wing]]. It asked them to leave but the trees were too thick to cut and build a raft. It then offered to give them its rubber boat if they defeated a recently gone violent Kamex that had ruled the island for a century. They manage to defeat it, wrecking Slowking's cave in the process. It later explains to them about Lugia and the Whirl Islands after they defeat Lugia.

==Trivia==

* No other Pokémon has the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Slowbro}} and Galarian Slowking.
* In the TCG, Slowking's {{TCG|Southern Islands}} card is the only card depicting a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced after [[Generation I]] to have a square evolution box in Japan only. In the English version, the Southern Islands collection used the Neo-era designs, which, like all later card layouts, feature a circular evolution box.
* Johtonian Slowking shares its {{pkmn|category}} name with {{p|Pyroar}}. They are both known as the Royal Pokémon.

===Origin===
{{bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Slowpoke, Slowbro and Slowking}}
Slowking's shell makes it similar to {{wp|hermit crab}}s, though it is physically similar to {{wp|giant otter}}s, {{wp|giant salamander}}s, and {{wp|hippopotamus}}es. Its shell "crown" may also be a reference to the mythical {{wp|sazae-oni}}, a magical sea demon of {{wp|Japanese folklore}} distinguished by its spiny "sazae" or "turban shaped" snail shell. Additionally, it seems to be based on a king, as the growth around its neck is based on a king's {{wp|Ruff (clothing)|ruff}} while its shell is similar to a crown.

By contrast, Galarian Slowking seems to draw inspiration from popular depictions of mythical sorcerers or {{wp|warlock}}s: its crown has morphed into a sorcerer's pointed hat, its elongated ruff seems akin to a long dark robe, and this regional variation has a predilection for "{{m|Eerie Spell|chanting mysterious spells}}" in battle.

====Name origin====
Slowking is a combination of ''slow'' and ''king''.

Yadoking is a combination of 宿借り ''yadokari'' ({{wp|hermit crab}}) and ''king''. Alternatively, it may also derive from 宿主 ''yadonushi'' ([parasitic] host), based on its relationship with {{p|Shellder}} in its evolutions.

'''Zigzagoon''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ジグザグマ''' ''Jiguzaguma'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Linoone}} starting at [[level]] 20.

In [[Galar]], Zigzagoon has a {{2t|Dark|Normal}}-type [[regional form]]. It evolves into Galarian Linoone starting at level 20, which evolves into {{p|Obstagoon}} when leveled up at [[Time|night]] starting at level 35.

==Biology==
Zigzagoon is a raccoon-like, quadruped Pokémon with bristly, zigzag-patterned fur. It has stripes formed by alternating layers of cream and brown fur. It has a brown head with spiky ears and a black nose. A black, mask pattern surrounds its brown eyes. The upper half of its mouth is jagged, and when it is open, there are two pointed teeth in its lower jaw. Its feet have three claws and pink paw pads. Its forefeet are cream-colored, but the hind feet are brown. Its brush tail is spiky and bristly.

In [[Galar]], the oldest and original form of Zigzagoon have a more black and white patterned-fur. The red eyes are surrounded by a black spiked mask. The black feet contains three sharp white claws. It has long pink that is constant standing outside of mouth with two lower teeth in between.

Zigzagoon is abundantly curious, as it wanders restlessly back and forth while rubbing its nose to the ground in search of something. It rubs its bristly back hair against trees to mark its territory, and plays dead to fool opponents in battle. Zigzagoon is found commonly in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grassy fields}}. The Zigzagoon in Galar are known to be constantly on the move and never settling down. It is believed that the zigzag movements of the Zigzagoon from other regions originated from its Galar relatives. They enjoy battling to the point they often attempt to prove others into fighting it. While this succeeded with other Pokémon, humans instead mistaken it wanting affection, much to the Zigzagoon's frustrations.<ref>https://swordshield.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon-galar-region/zigzagoon/</ref>

==Trivia==
* Zigzagoon is one of the two Pokémon left out of the [[Hoenn Pokérap]]; the other is {{p|Relicanth}}.
* A {{Shiny}} Zigzagoon was given to games from an interactive demo to fix the [[Berry Glitch]].
** Due to this being available for over three years in North America, Zigzagoon has the honor of having the longest event.
* Zigzagoon has the same [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number|Hoenn Pokédex]] and [[List of Pokémon by Kalos Pokédex number|Central Kalos Pokédex]] numbers.
* A Zigzagoon can be seen in the Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Introduction Animation.

===Origin===
Although Zigzagoon's category suggests it is based on a {{wp|raccoon}}, it also shares several similarities with the {{wp|Japanese Raccoon Dog|Japanese raccoon dog}} (''Nyctereutes procyonoides viverrinus''), also known as the tanuki. Japanese folklore and legend claims that tanuki are tricksters, masters of disguise and capable of shapeshifting, though also absent-minded and gullible. Tanukis are also known for drumming on their bellies with their front paws, like Zigzagoon has been known to do.

In comparison, Galarian Zigzagoon seems to be based more on ordinary raccoons than tanukis, as evidenced by its black-and-white color scheme.
====Name origin====
Zigzagoon may be a combination of ''zigzag'' (referring to its fur pattern and unusual habits) and ''raccoon''.

Jiguzaguma may be a combination of ''zigzag'' and アライグマ ''araiguma'' ({{wp|raccoon}}) or 穴熊 ''anaguma'' ({{wp|badger}}). ''Guma'' (熊 ''kuma'') as a suffix is often used for mammals that resemble bears.

'''Grimer''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ベトベター''' ''Betbeter'') is a {{type|Poison}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Muk}} starting at [[level]] 38.

In [[Alola]], Grimer has a [[regional variant]] that is {{2t|Poison|Dark}}. It evolves into Alolan Muk starting at level 38.

==Biology==
Grimer is a slimy, amorphous blob-like Pokémon whose body was animated because of lunar X-rays. Its purple sludge body contains a variety of pungent bacteria, which are so potent that it renders soil barren and incapable of supporting plant life. It has two large eyes with beady pupils, and a gaping mouth with a grey tongue. While it lacks any visible legs, it does have two arms with three digits on each hand. It is constantly oozing a bacteria-rich fluid from all parts of its body. Pieces of it often break off during travel, and go on to become new Grimer. When combined with another Grimer, it produces new poisonous compounds.

Due to its lack of a solid form, it is capable of squeezing into any space or crevices with relative ease. It uses this to penetrate sewage pipes so that it may feed off of the filthy waste water inside. Its population fluctuates based on the availability of waste. It can be found in polluted lakes and streams, as well as within {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|cities and factories}} where trash and industrial waste can be found.

Grimer was brought to Alola to deal with the excess waste generated by the region's increased population. Its introduction has also led to a massive reduction in {{p|Trubbish}} and {{p|Garbodor}} populations. Without liquid sludge to feed on, it took to eating solid garbage instead; this steady diet of trash caused its form to change. This variant's body is green with a line of yellow sludge along its lower lip. It also has two "teeth" in its upper jaw; these are actually crystallized toxins formed from the garbage that Grimer has been eating. It is not known how to break down these toxic crystals, but direct contact with them is known to be dangerous. Lethal poisons leak out of Grimer's body when these crystals fall out. Grimer is perpetually hungry and must constantly eat trash; if none is readily available, it will eat other manufactured products instead. Because it stores its toxins within the crystals, Alolan Grimer does not produce a foul stench like the standard version.

[[File:Tupp Alolan Grimer.png|thumb|right|250px|Alolan Grimer in the anime]]
====Major appearances====
Grimer debuted in a flashback in ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]''. [[Celadon City]] [[Gym Leader]] [[Erika]] told a story about when she was a youngster, where she got lost one day and ran into a Grimer. However, a {{p|Gloom}} chased the Grimer off and saved her.

Multiple Grimer physically debuted in ''[[EP030|Sparks Fly for Magnemite]]''. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} encountered the Grimer and a {{AP|Muk}} when they were gumming up the turbines in the power plant in [[Gringey City]], causing a citywide power loss. This was eventually resolved when Ash {{pkmn2|caught}} Muk.

{{an|Dawn}} temporarily trained a Grimer in ''[[DP088|Camping It Up!]]'' during the [[Pokémon Summer Academy]]. It suffered from low self-esteem. Dawn later used Grimer in a {{pkmn|battle}} against a {{p|Venonat}} trained by [[Conway]].

====Minor appearances====
A Grimer appeared in ''[[EP086|Pikachu Re-Volts]]'', where it was among the Pokémon controlled by [[Cassidy]] and [[Butch]] at [[Mandarin Island North]].

Four Grimer appeared in a flashback in ''[[EP206|The Joy of Water Pokémon]]'' as former inhabitants of [[Lake Lucid]] before becoming the clean lake it is now.

A Grimer appeared in ''[[AG126|Saved by the Beldum]]'', where it was among the Pokémon seen during the [[Ever Grande Conference]].

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[Koga]] wears a Grimer on his shoulder in the form of a ninja outfit in ''[[PS029|Go for the Golbat]]''. He used it extensively to smother {{adv|Blue}}, preventing him from breathing and restrict his movement so that he would be unable to call on his Pokémon. He again used it in the battle with the evil Elite Four [[Agatha]], to little effect.

In ''[[PS119|A Flaaffy Kerfuffle]]'', a Grimer appeared as one of the Pokémon in {{adv|Professor Oak}}'s fantasy when he explains that Trainers should only have six Pokémon with them.

Koga's daughter, [[Janine]], is later seen with a Grimer in ''[[PS156|Notorious Noctowl]]''. She uses it against [[Falkner]] during the [[Gym Leader]] faceoff, using its {{m|Minimize}} attack to outwit his {{p|Noctowl}}.

A Grimer was one of the Pokémon sent to help the fight in [[Ilex Forest]] in ''[[PS179|The Last Battle XIII]]''.

Multiple Grimer were used by {{tc|Team Galactic Grunt}}s in ''[[PS403|Cleaning Up Grimer]]''.

In ''[[PS426|Softening Up Kakuna]]'', Grimer appeared as one of the Pokémon that {{adv|Platinum}} rented during the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation IV)|Battle Factory}} challenge.

A Grimer appeared in ''[[PS526|Mr. Perfect]]''.

In ''[[PAORAS08|Omega Alpha Adventure 8]]'', a {{tc|Team Aqua Grunt}} used a Grimer to battle at [[Sea Mauville]].

[[Regional variant|Alolan]] Grimer debuted in [[PASM04]]. One was seen with its Trainer at a festival held in [[Iki Town]].

Another Alolan Grimer appeared under the ownership of {{adv|Moon}} in [[PASM06]].

An Alolan Grimer appeared in [[PASM13]].

==Trivia==
* In ''[[EP030|Sparks Fly for Magnemite]]'', Grimer's anime debut, Grimer had a very strong odor that made most people around the Grimer cover their noses from the smell. However, in recent episodes, Grimer's smell has seemingly ceased to exist. This is most obvious in ''[[DP088|Camping It Up!]]'' where {{an|Dawn}} is given a Grimer to train, and it immediately hugs her, but no one complains about any smell.
* Grimer shares similar traits to {{p|Koffing}} and {{p|Trubbish}}. All three Pokémon are pure Poison-types with a single evolution and roughly the same base stat totals.
* Alolan Grimer and its Alolan evolution were designed by [[Hitoshi Ariga]].

===Origin===
It appears to be a pile of living sludge. Grimer may also be based on the imagined fear that heavy pollution, caused by the leakage and/or improper disposal of toxic/radioactive waste, may result in the creation of new and undesirable life.

Alolan Grimer may be based on an {{wp|oil slick}}, particularly the multiple colors it produces when it mixes with water.

====Name origin====
Grimer is derived from ''grime'' (''dirt'' or ''filth'').

Betbeter may be derived from べとべと ''betobeto'' and べたべた ''betabeta'', both meaning sticky.

'''Stantler''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''オドシシ''' ''Odoshishi'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

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

==Biology==
Stantler is a quadruped, caribou-like Pokémon. It has a tan pelt with a cream-colored belly and a few spots on its back. Its tail is large, short, and round, and each of its legs ends in a black hoof. It has a large, brown nose and a pair of pale cream-colored antlers, each with a black orb in the center. The shape of the antlers and the black orbs causes them to resemble eyes. Stantler can distort reality and create illusions with its antlers by subtly changing the flow of air around them. Staring into them creates an odd sensation, as if one is being sucked through them, and one may become so dizzy that it is impossible to stand.

Its strange antlers are very valuable artifacts to {{pkmn|poacher|Pokémon hunters}}. The species was nearly driven to extinction for its beautiful antlers. Additionally, the round balls found on the fallen antlers can be ground into a powder that aids in sleeping. Stantler lives in herds in mountainous {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|forests}}. As shown [[EP125|in the anime]], a baby Stantler that is separated from its herd and frightened will instinctively produce an illusion of a big, stampeding herd to scare away perceived threats.

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
[[File:Stantler anime.png|thumb|220px|left|Stantler in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
In ''[[EP125|The Little Big Horn]]'', {{an|Brock}} helped a Stantler fawn reunite with its herd. A little while before that, Stantler created an illusion of a stampeding herd of Stantler in self-defense, but it was later seen through by Brock.

Multiple Stantler appeared in ''[[M04|Celebi: The Voice of the Forest]]''.

In ''[[DP006|Different Strokes for Different Blokes]]'', Ash got lost in [[Bewilder Forest|a forest]] that contained many Stantler with his {{AP|Turtwig}}. Some of the Stantler used {{m|Hypnosis}} on the two, giving them various hallucinations. [[Paul]] caught one of the Stantler, but released it almost immediately after deciding that it wasn't worthy for his team.

[[Santa Claus]] has a group of Stantler to pull his sleigh as shown in ''[[PK06|Stantler's Little Helpers]]'', officially replacing his {{p|Ponyta}}.

====Minor appearances====
A Stantler was one of the Pokémon seen at the [[Pokémon Swap Meet]] in ''[[EP146|Tricks of the Trade]]''.

Two Stantler were seen in the wild in ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]''.

A Stantler was one of the Pokémon seen in a forest outside the [[Ice Path]] in [[EP250]].

A Stantler was one of the inhabitants of the [[Dragon Holy Land]] in ''[[EP252|Fangs for Nothin']]''.

A pod of three Stantler appeared in ''[[AG011|A Bite to Remember]]''.

A Stantler appeared in ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'' as one of the Pokémon living in the [[Tree of Beginning]].

A Stantler appeared as part of [[Lila]]'s famous "tiger lily smile" in ''[[DP095|Battling the Generation Gap!]]''.

Multiple Stantler appeared in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''.

A few Stantler appeared in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''.

A {{pkmn|Coordinator}}'s Stantler was used in the [[Contest Battle|Battle Stage]] of the {{to|Daybreak}} {{pkmn|Contest}} along with a {{p|Magcargo}} in ''[[DP162|Playing the Performance Encore!]]''.

A Stantler appeared in the opening sequence of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.

==Trivia==
* Stantler is found on {{rt|36|Johto}}, which leads to Violet City, the game counterpart of {{wp|Nara, Nara|Nara, Japan}}, a city where many tame deer roam freely.

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Stantler}}
It appears to be based on a {{wp|sika deer}} or {{wp|reindeer}}, and 鹿威し ''shishiodoshi'' or "deer scare", a Japanese device traditionally used to scare deer and birds away from gardens.

====Name origin====
Stantler may be a combination of ''{{wp|deer|stag}}'' or ''stare'' and ''antler''.

Odoshishi may be derived from 鹿威し ''shishiodoshi''.

'''Ultra Deep Sea''' (Japanese: '''ウルトラディープシー''' ''Ultra Deep Sea''), known as '''Ultra Space''' (Japanese: '''ウルトラスペース''' ''Ultra Space'') in {{g|Sun and Moon}}, is the home of {{p|Nihilego}}.

In {{g|Sun and Moon}}, it is the place where [[Lusamine]] is confronted for the final time. The player and [[Lillie]] reach it through a portal [[Nebby]], now a {{p|Solgaleo}}{{sup/7|S}}/{{p|Lunala}}{{sup/7|M}}, creates after it evolves at the [[Altar of the Sunne]]{{sup/7|S}}/[[Altar of the Moone]]{{sup/7|M}}. The player can return to their world to prepare by talking to Solgaleo{{sup/7|S}}/Lunala{{sup/7|M}}.

==Geography==
Ultra Deep Sea is a dark cave with several colorful rocks on the walls that resemble diamonds. It is a small area with a long dark stone path. The player can see several Nihilego floating in the area.

==In the games==
===Pokémon Sun and Moon===
{{spoilers}}
The player and Lillie first arrive here to retrieve [[Guzma]] and [[Lusamine]] and save the [[Aether Foundation]] president from herself. Guzma stops them as they proceed forward, warning them of the dangers ahead. When he arrived in Ultra Space, he had tried to capture one of the [[Ultra Beast]]s, but it possessed him. Fully aware he was being controlled by something else, Guzma felt fear for the first time in his life. He then tells Lillie that Lusamine is too far gone, but Lillie is not deterred.

Further inside, five of the same Ultra Beasts appear in front of Lillie, before dispersing and revealing Lusamine. Lusamine reveals the true name of UB-01, {{p|Nihilego}}, and chastises her daughter for intruding on her paradise. Lillie tries to reason with her, but is quickly shut down, told to leave, and disowned by Lusamine. Lillie finally stands up to her mother, saying that children are not just things that belong to parents, and that Pokémon aren't just things that belong to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. Lusamine blames the player for Lillie's defiance, and releases a Nihilego from a {{ball|Beast}}, merging with it before battling the player with the rest of her Pokémon.

After the player defeats Lusamine, Lillie calls Solgaleo{{sup/7|S}}/Lunala{{sup/7|M}} to help as the merged Lusamine/Nihilego prepares to attack her. The [[Legendary Pokémon]] roars, forcing Nihilego and Lusamine apart and sending the Ultra Beast back to its Ball. Exhausted, Lusamine falls to the floor, and Lillie runs to her mother. With the last of her strength, Lusamine asks her daughter when she became so beautiful before losing consciousness. Suddenly, the area grows unstable and Nihilego start surrounding the player, Lillie, Guzma, and Lusamine. Acting fast, Solgaleo{{sup/7|S}}/Lunala{{sup/7|M}} teleports the group out of Ultra Space before the Nihilego swarms can catch up to them.

It is impossible to return to Ultra Space after defeating Lusamine.

===Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon===
In Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, Ultra Deep Sea can be accessed through Rarity 1 warp holes in [[Ultra Warp Ride]], within a couple of thousand {{wp|light-year}}s of Alola. Nihilego can be encountered and caught here.

==Trainers==
===Pokémon Sun and Moon===
Each of Lusamine's Pokémon has an aura that boosts one of its stats, similar to the auras of the [[Totem Pokémon]]. Her Pokémon all have a perpetual angry expression (the same expression as when the Pokémon uses a [[Z-Move]]).

Villainous team

2017-10-14T17:01:52Z

Sketch: /* Pokémon Adventures */

{{incomplete|needs=This article needs quite a bit of cleanup, maybe a few images, and needs Team Debonairs and Great Rocket.}}
{{move|Antagonists}}

'''Villainous teams''' (English: '''Team ~'''; Japanese: '''{{j|～団}}''' ''-dan'') are {{wp|Organized crime|criminal terrorist organizations}} which usually act as the main antagonists in the storylines of [[Pokémon games]]. Whatever their goals in their respective games, one thing they all have in common is that they plan on achieving their results through the misuse of {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

==Comparisons==
Villainous teams in the [[core series]] have many aspects in common. Their structure generally includes, in order of rank, a leader, one or more admins, and a number of anonymous grunts. Some teams have additional levels of authority within them, such as [[Team Flare]]'s scientists, as well as additional members and associated individuals who do not fit into the ladder of authority at all, such as [[Gladion]], who works with [[Team Skull]].

Aside from {{game|Emerald}}, each core series game has only one team acting in villainous capacity. Typically, the player character encounters the villainous team many times over the course of their adventure. Typically, they first encounter grunts early in the game, often involved in a small act of villainy unrelated to the team's broader goals. As the player's adventure continues, they meet more of the team's members and uncover more of its secrets and aims, culminating in one or more encounters with the team's boss. Finally, toward the end of the game, the player foils the team's scheme. In most games — with the exception of {{game|Black and White|s}} — this happens before the end of the player's journey to the [[Pokémon League]].

The above refers to the core series games; however, other canons, such as the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, have created very different interpretations of villainous teams.

==Core series==
{{incomplete|section|Manga info of Team Plasma and Team Flare, if any}}
===[[Team Rocket]]===
[[File:HeartGold SoulSilver Team Rocket Grunt.png|thumb|250px|Team Rocket Grunts]]
Team Rocket members wear black costumes and have a red "R" as their crest. Many variations of the costume have been seen. Their leader is [[Giovanni]].
====In the games====
In [[Generation I]], Team Rocket often worked to gain money, through methods such as burglary and selling [[Fossil]]s. Their plans culminated in a hostile takeover of the Silph Corporation building in [[Saffron City]]. The gang based their operations in the hidden basement of Celadon's Game Corner.

Initially, [[Giovanni]] was the leader of the [[Viridian Gym]]. After being defeated by {{ga|Red}}/{{ga|Leaf}}, he resigned his position and disappeared to train. Team Rocket was disbanded at this time, but isolated groups still operated in the [[Sevii Islands]] until they were made aware of Giovanni's departure.

For three years, Team Rocket appeared to be gone completely. However, an underground movement, led by executives from the [[Sevii Islands]], developed in the [[Johto]] region. As usual, it began with crimes committed to earn money (such as cutting off {{p|Slowpoke}} tails and selling them at outrageous prices).

As the Johto Team Rocket grew in size, scientists within the group studied radio waves and how they might be used to control Pokémon. From a former ninja base in [[Mahogany Town]], their experiments affected the {{p|Magikarp}} at the [[Lake of Rage]], causing the Pokémon to evolve unnaturally. Although the experiment was stopped by [[Lance]], Team Rocket soon took over the Goldenrod Radio Tower, intending to use its transmitter to affect Pokémon nationwide.

Before putting their plan into action, however, Team Rocket used the tower to instead attempt to contact Giovanni, hoping he would hear their message and return. This gave {{ga|Ethan}}/{{ga|Lyra}} enough time to infiltrate the besieged Goldenrod and defeat Team Rocket's executives, who again disbanded the group. Some time later, a time traveling Ethan/Lyra from the future fought Giovanni while their present-day counterpart watched the fight. Giovanni vanished after the fight, and Ethan/Lyra returned to their time.

====In the anime====
Team Rocket has appeared in almost every episode since [[EP002|the second]], usually as the bumbling trio [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}, though at times {{an|Giovanni}} as well as other members, such as [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]], will appear.

====In the manga====
{{incomplete|section|other manga}}
=====Pokémon Adventures=====
{{main|Team Rocket#In the Pokémon Adventures manga}}
Team Rocket first appear in Pokémon Adventures, when {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Blue}} are pursuing {{p|Mew}} in [[Viridian Forest]]. They are led by {{adv|Giovanni}}, who is portrayed in a much more sinister light than in the anime or games, as with Team Rocket on a whole.

This canon's depiction of Gym Leaders is different from that of the games and anime, who generally depict [[Gym Leader]]s as valiant. In the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}, the three most prominent members of Team Rocket, collectively referred to as the [[Team Rocket Triad]], are [[Koga]], [[Sabrina]] and [[Lt. Surge]]. Like the other villainous trios, two members of the Team Rocket Triad (Sabrina and Lt. Surge) are true to their original calling (though as opposed to the other villainous trios, for them it is being Gym Leaders, not being members of their Team), while one goes his own way, that being Koga.

For a short time, [[Blaine]] worked for Team Rocket, making 5 out of the 8 [[Gym Leader#Indigo League|Kanto Leaders]] Rocket-affiliated at some point in their life.

As in the games, Giovanni later disbands Team Rocket and shuns the Team Rocket Triad, and the four of them go their separate ways. Team Rocket make a brief comeback aboard the S.S. Aqua, but they are on the whole unsuccessful. Later, however, [[Pryce]], under the guise of the [[Masked Man]], reforms Team Rocket for his own uses. At this point, his most prominent members are [[Carl]], [[Sham]], [[Karen]] and [[Will]]. Pryce plans to use Team Rocket to gain control of {{p|Lugia}}, {{p|Ho-Oh}} and eventually {{p|Celebi}}, and through that control time in order to save his {{p|Lapras}}'s parents. After {{adv|Gold}} convinces him to cease his villainous ways, he too disbands Team Rocket.

In the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}, Giovanni once again reforms Team Rocket, the most notable members now being the [[Three Beasts]] of Team Rocket. The main aim for Team Rocket is to reunite Giovanni with his son {{adv|Silver}} through the use of {{adv|Deoxys}}. Like the other villainous trios, two of the Beasts remain true to their original calling as Rockets, those being [[Orm]] and [[Sird]], while the other, [[Carr]], goes his own way. In this arc, Silver is intended to inherit Team Rocket, but he instead shuns it.

In the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}, it was revealed that Carr had taken over Team Rocket and gathered the remaining troops together. His reign of power comes to an abrupt end, however, as the organization is then taken over by the four {{tc|Executive|Rocket Executives}}, who intend to gather all the [[Plate]]s and use them to control {{p|Arceus}}. With the unknowing help of Gold, {{adv|Crystal}}, and Silver, the Rocket Executives manage to enter the [[Sinjoh Ruins]], where Arceus recreates {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and {{p|Giratina}}, which [[Archer]] intends to be an invincible army for Giovanni. However, when Giovanni arrives with [[Lance]] and Pryce, it is revealed that the battle of the three [[Legendary Pokémon]] would cause the destruction of both Johto and [[Sinnoh]], as foreseen by Pryce when he was trapped in the time stream. Thanks to Gold opening up to [[Togebo]], Arceus soon calms down the Legendary Pokémon, sending them back to their respective realms. As a reward of his good deed, Celebi then cures Giovanni of his long-time illness, allowing him to return to lead Team Rocket and its rebuilding. Silver still doesn't approve his father's criminal life, intending to stop Team Rocket and convince his father of the error of his ways one day by himself.

===[[Team Aqua]]===
[[File:Omega Ruby Alpha Sapphire Team Aqua Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Aqua Grunts]]
Team Aqua members wear blue costumes that look like {{wp|pirate}} outfits. They have a skull-and-bones-like "A" as their crest. Their leader is [[Archie]]. Team Aqua tries to expand the ocean and awaken {{p|Kyogre}}.

====In the games====
In [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Sapphire]] (and its remake, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Alpha Sapphire]]), their main goal is to reduce the landmass of the [[Hoenn]] region. They are first encountered in [[Petalburg Woods]] and a grunt is fought. After earning the {{Badge|Stone}}, the same grunt is seen fleeing to the [[Rusturf Tunnel]], and had kidnapped Peeko. Later, they are seen [[Slateport City]]'s [[Oceanic Museum]], attempting to steal the {{key|III|Devon Goods}} from [[Captain Stern]]. Later, they steal a {{key|III|Meteorite}} from [[Professor Cozmo]] in [[Meteor Falls]], and use it to try to cause [[Mt. Chimney]] to become dormant. After being defeated, they aren't seen again until the player reaches the [[Weather Institute]], where a group of grunts led by [[Shelly]] are looking for information about the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Kyogre}} and the weather Pokémon {{p|Castform}}. Soon after, they are seen at [[Mt. Pyre]], and succeed in stealing the [[Colored orbs|Red Orb]] (Blue Orb in Alpha Sapphire). They then steal the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] that Captain Stern built. They are seen and fought at their [[Team Aqua Hideout|hideout]] near [[Lilycove City]], which can not be accessed after earning the [[Badge|Mind Badge]] in Sapphire, and they then travel to the [[Seafloor Cavern]] with the orb to awaken Kyogre.

In [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Ruby]] (and its remake, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby]]), they help the player defeat Team Magma.

In [[Pokémon Emerald]], they are first seen in [[Slateport City|Slateport City's]] [[Oceanic Museum]], attempting to steal the {{key|III|Devon Goods}} from [[Captain Stern]]. They are seen at [[Meteor Falls]] and cause [[Team Magma]] to flee. They are seen fighting Team Magma at Mt. Chimney. Later, they are seen again when the player reaches the [[Weather Institute]], where a group of grunts led by [[Shelly]] are looking for information about the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Kyogre}} and the weather Pokémon {{p|Castform}}. Soon after, they are seen at [[Mt. Pyre]], and succeed in stealing the Red Orb. They then steal the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] that Captain Stern built. They are seen and fought at their [[Team Aqua Hideout|hideout]] near [[Lilycove City]]. After many grunts and [[Aqua Admin Matt|Matt]] are defeated, they are seen traveling to the [[Seafloor Cavern]] with the Red Orb to awaken Kyogre. After defeating many grunts and [[Shelly]], Archie is seen awakening Kyogre, but it flees, and is fought and defeated by the player. Archie and [[Maxie]] are seen in [[Sootopolis City]] until {{p|Rayquaza}} stops the fight between Kyogre and {{p|Groudon}}. After this, the two leaders are seen returning the respective orbs to Mt. Pyre.

====In the anime====
Team Aqua made their first appearance in ''[[AG017|Stairway to Devon]]''.

====In the manga====
=====Pokémon Adventures=====
{{main|Team Aqua#In the Pokémon Adventures manga}}

===[[Team Magma]]===
[[File:Omega Ruby Alpha Sapphire Team Magma Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Magma Grunts]]
Team Magma wear red jumpsuit outfits, which have been variously interpreted to look like {{wp|Ninja}} costumes or similar to an imp. They have a stylized "M", appearing like a volcano, as their team's signature crest. Their leader is [[Maxie]]. Team Magma attempts to wake {{p|Groudon}} and expand the land area of the world.

====In the games====
In [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Ruby]] (and its remake, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby]]), their main goal is to increase the landmass of the [[Hoenn]] region. They are first encountered in [[Petalburg Woods]], and a grunt is fought. After earning the {{Badge|Stone}}, the same grunt is seen fleeing to the [[Rusturf Tunnel]] and had kidnapped Peeko. Later, they are encountered at [[Slateport City]]'s [[Oceanic Museum]], attempting to steal the {{key|III|Devon Goods}} from [[Captain Stern]]. Later, they steal a {{key|III|Meteorite}} from [[Professor Cozmo]] in [[Meteor Falls]], and use it to try to cause Mt. Chimney to erupt. After being defeated, they aren't seen again until the player reaches the [[Weather Institute]], where a group of grunts led by [[Magma Admin Courtney|Courtney]] in Ruby or [[Tabitha]] in Omega Ruby are looking for information about the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Groudon}} and the weather Pokémon {{p|Castform}}. Soon after, they are seen at [[Mt. Pyre]], and succeed in stealing the [[Colored orbs|Blue Orb]] (Red Orb in Omega Ruby). They then steal the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] that Captain Stern built. They are seen and fought at their [[Team Magma Hideout|hideout]] in [[Lilycove City]], which can not be accessed after earning the [[Badge|Mind Badge]] in Ruby, and they then travel to the [[Seafloor Cavern]] with the orb to awaken Groudon.

In [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Sapphire]] (and its remake, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Alpha Sapphire]]), they help the player defeat Team Aqua.

In [[Pokémon Emerald]], Team Magma is first seen in Meteor Falls, but flee when [[Archie]] and [[Team Aqua]] appear. Like in Ruby and Omega Ruby, they steal the meteorite. They are first fought at Mt. Chimney, and this is the first time [[Tabitha]] and [[Maxie]] are fought. After fighting Team Aqua, who successfully stole the Red Orb, at Mt. Pyre, the player obtains the [[Magma Emblem]], which was dropped by a grunt when Team Magma stole the Blue Orb, and accesses the hideout. However, in this game, it's located in [[Jagged Pass]] instead of being near Lilycove City in Ruby and Omega Ruby. After defeating many grunts and Tabitha, the player witnesses Maxie awaken Groudon, but it flees, and they then fight Maxie for the second time. After earning the Mind Badge, they are fought at the [[Mossdeep Space Center]] for the last time. After defeating a few grunts, the player teams up with [[Steven Stone]] and defeat Maxie and Tabitha in a Double Battle. They are also seen after Archie awakens Kyogre in the Seafloor Cavern and is defeated by the player. The two leaders are in [[Sootopolis City]] until {{p|Rayquaza}} stops the fight between Kyogre and Groudon. After that, they are seen returning the respective orbs to Mt. Pyre.

====In the anime====
Team Magma made their first appearance in ''[[AG002|A Ruin with a View]]''.

====In the manga====
=====Pokémon Adventures=====
{{main|Team Magma#In the Pokémon Adventures manga}}

===[[Team Galactic]]===
[[File:Diamond Pearl Team Galactic Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Galactic Grunts]]
Galactic Grunts wear black and white jumpsuits that vaguely resemble spacesuits and wear their hair in teal bowl cuts. Their leader is [[Cyrus]], who wishes to create a new universe by awakening {{p|Dialga}} or[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Versions|*]]/and[[Pokémon Platinum Version|*]] {{p|Palkia}}. Their team's crest is a stylized letter "G" (Possibly to make it resemble a spiral galaxy). Whereas the other teams usually have large logos on their uniforms, Team Galactic's logos are small, being barely visible on their battle sprites.

====In the games====
In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, Cyrus wishes to recreate the {{pkmn|universe}} in his image with the powers of {{p|Dialga}} or {{p|Palkia}}. In {{game|Platinum}}, the leader is still Cyrus, but this time, he tries to summon both Dialga and Palkia to create a world without spirit. In Platinum, [[Charon]] is also present.

In Platinum, once the player has access to [[Stark Mountain]], [[Mars]] and [[Jupiter]] are seen at Stark Mountain with Charon attempting to use the power of {{p|Heatran}}, but after being defeated, they leave the team, and Charon is arrested, leaving [[Saturn]] as the only Team Galactic Commander still part of the team.

====In the anime====
[[Saturn]], along with two grunts, appeared in ''[[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence!]]'', though it was just a brief cameo at the end of the episode. Here, they commissioned Team Rocket to steal the [[Timespace orbs|Adamant Orb]] and frame [[Nando]] for the crime. At the end, Team Galactic commented that Team Rocket did a lousy job at it. This was not revealed until their next appearance, ''[[DP060|Journey to the Unown!]]''. Saturn tried to locate the {{p|Unown}} and control them using a cube with an {{p|Arceus}} pattern. [[Cyrus]], [[Mars]], and [[Jupiter]] later appeared in ''[[DP096|Losing Its Lustrous]]'' and ''[[DP097|Double Team Turnover!]]'' with Saturn.

====In the manga====
=====Pokémon Adventures=====
{{main|Team Galactic#In the Pokémon Adventures manga}}

=====Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!=====
Like in the games, the team is led by [[Cyrus]]. The team essentially has the same goal as in the games, but it was possible that the {{tc|Commander}}s did not know about the absolute plan of their leader, since Mars was shocked when Cyrus revealed that his ultimate goal was to create the universe and all of its life fully anew. [[Hareta]], with the help of [[Mitsumi]], a former member, and the Gym Leaders, managed to stop him. Later, [[Charon]] became the new leader and tried to capture {{p|Heatran}}. [[Mars]] and [[Jupiter]] left on a search to find Cyrus and were treated as deserters.

One of the most distinctive characters of the team is [[B-2]], a grunt who has swollen buttocks due to Hareta biting him when they first met.

===[[Team Plasma]]===
[[File:Black White Team Plasma Grunts.png|thumb|left|250px|Team Plasma Grunts as they appear in Black and White]]
[[File:Black 2 White 2 Team Plasma Grunts.png|thumb|250px|Team Plasma Grunts as they appear in Black 2 and White 2]]
Team Plasma is the villainous team of the [[Unova]] region. Originally, the grunts wore a costume that resembles a {{wp|knight}}'s armor, while the [[Seven Sages]] wore robes. Their objective is to separate [[human]]ity from Pokémon. Their leader is [[N]], although the team is being used to further the goals of his adopted father, [[Ghetsis]]. After this is discovered, the members of Team Plasma that support Ghetsis change their uniform to be more similar to pirates, while those that support N remain in the old uniform. Their crest is the letters P and Z combined together, looking like the {{wp|Chi Rho}}.

====In the games====
Team Plasma appears in various locations. In {{game|Black and White|s}}, their leader, N, is encountered very early in the game and is battled in many of Team Plasma's appearances. Eventually, N is able to gain control of {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W}}, and defeats the champion [[Alder]]. After the player captures the other [[Legendary Pokémon]] and defeats N, Ghetsis reveals his true plans, battling the hero himself. After his defeat and arrest, [[Looker]] will ask the player to help him round up the remaining [[Seven Sages|Sages]].

In {{game|Black and White|s|4=2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2}}, Team Plasma has split into two different factions. One of the factions consists of the few members of Team Plasma that are still loyal to N. The other faction, known as the new Team Plasma, is led by [[Colress]]. This faction is not attempting to release Pokémon, but instead take over Unova. They intend to accomplish this new goal by freezing the region and stealing all of the region's Pokémon. Having escaped from custody, Ghetsis once again reveals himself to be the true mastermind behind Team Plasma's actions.

The reformed members and N help the player against new Team Plasma, culminating in the defeat of Colress and Ghetsis — the latter controlling {{p|Kyurem}}. Following this, Colress officially disbands Team Plasma, retiring to [[P2 Laboratory]]. Ghetsis, having snapped and lost heart upon seeing his plans foiled, is taken away by the [[Shadow Triad]], never to be seen again.

====In the anime====
Team Plasma's [[BW023 (unaired)|debut]] [[BW024 (unaired)|episodes]] were postponed due to the {{wp|Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami}} in Japan and were later retconned out of continuity. Their proper debut was in the ''[[Best Wishes series|Best Wishes Season 2: Episode N]]'' arc, but in their new outfits.

N debuted at the end of ''[[BW109|New Places... Familiar Faces!]]'' and was properly introduced in the [[BW110|next episode]]. Colress, with some other [[Team Plasma Grunt (Trainer class)|grunts]], first appeared in ''[[BW112|Team Plasma's Pokémon Power Plot!]]'' experimenting with wild Pokémon. Ghetsis made his proper appearance  in ''[[BW117|Team Plasma's Pokémon Manipulation!]]''. [[Anthea and Concordia]] made their debut at the end of the episode rescuing N from Team Plasma. The Seven Sages appeared in a flashback in ''[[BW118|Secrets From Out of the Fog!]]''. Like in the [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|games]], Team Plasma's plan is to use the strength of Pokémon and use it to take over the [[Unova]] region.

====In the manga====
=====Pokémon Adventures=====
{{main|Team Plasma#In the Pokémon Adventures manga}}

===[[Team Flare]]===
[[File:XY Team Flare Grunts.png|thumb|right|220px|Team Flare Grunts]]
Team Flare is the villainous team of the Kalos region. Team Flare Grunt's uniform is a mafia styled red suit, while Admins wear more stylized white suits and Scientists wear red suits of varying designs. Their symbol is a flaming letter F.

====In the games====
At first, Team Flare's goal is claimed to be making the world "beautiful" with style and lots of money. Despite their claims, several grunts and even their leader [[Lysandre]] confirm that they seek a world benefiting only those within Team Flare, disregarding anybody else. Team Flare attempted to make money by stealing and selling [[Fossils]]. They also siphoned energy from the [[Kalos Power Plant]], and later on stole [[Poké Balls]] from the [[Poké Ball Factory]].

It is eventually revealed that Team Flare's true plan is to use the ancient Ultimate Weapon in order to obliterate all life except themselves and start anew, as Lysandre no longer sees a bright future for the current society — which, in his words, has grown to an unsustainable level and is doomed by "unproductive fools" consuming the planet's limited resources. At this point, it is explained that all their actions were preparations to this goal: the energy from the Power Plant was needed to reactivate the weapon, and the large number of Pokémon was needed to feed it, as it is powered by their life energies.

After the player has defeated the Elite Four and the Champion, the player is tasked by [[Looker]] to help him solve a series of crimes related to a person known as [[Emma|Essentia]], which would be revealed to be the result of experiments by [[Xerosic]], one of Team Flare's scientists.

====In the anime====
The first appearance of a Team Flare member was in ''[[SS029|Mega Evolution Special I]]'', where Lysandre made an appearance at Lysandre Labs, monitoring the Mega Evolution energy [[Alain]] had accumulated. He appears again in ''[[SS031|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', where he interrupted Alain and [[Steven]]'s battle.

In the anime, Team Flare hatches a plan to capture the [[Legendary Pokémon]], {{p|Zygarde}}, which is first revealed in ''[[XY094|From A to Z!]]''. However, they fail in doing so as it escapes. The team are after two of the Zygarde Cores, code-named [[Squishy|Z1]] and [[Z2]]. In ''[[XY102|Meeting at Terminus Cave!]]'', Team Flare were able to locate Z2 while it and Z1 were communicating, and Mable and Aliana proceeded to go after Z2. After discovering that Z1 had joined {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}, they began following the group to capture it, and were seen on numerous occasions. Team Flare Admins, along with [[Xerosic]], began their experiments on an island using the power of Zygarde Cells to mutate trees, which Xerosic declared was a success. Locating Z2, Aliana and Mable, along with Team Flare Grunts, were able to capture Z2 with the help of [[Alain]] and his {{TP|Alain|Charizard}}, allowing Xerosic to later experiment on it.

In ''[[XY129|Kalos League Passion with a Certain Flare!]]'', on the night before the [[Lumiose Conference]]'s final round, Team Flare, reaching the final stages of their plan, made their way to the [[Prism Tower]] to begin setting up their equipment. At the end of ''[[XY131|Down to the Fiery Finish!]]'', Lysandre arrived at Prism Tower and ordered Z2 to show him its power as he put his plan into motion. In ''[[XY132|A Towering Takeover!]]'', Lysandre televised a message to the citizens of Kalos, describing his plan to create a new, beautiful world by destroying the one they currently live in. Team Flare's plot was ultimately foiled in ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]'', after Z2 was freed from its control and Team Flare's [[Giant Rock]] destroyed. Lysandre's fate was unclear after he was engulfed in the same explosion that destroyed the Giant Rock, while the other members were eventually arrested.

===[[Team Skull]]===
[[File:Sun Moon Team Skull Grunt.png|thumb|right|220px|Team Skull Grunts]]
Team Skull is the primary villainous team of the [[Alola]] region. The grunts' black-and-white uniforms are inspired by street gangs, and consist of sneakers, shorts, wrist bands, tank tops, bandannas used to cover the lower face, and berets that resemble the tops of skulls. Their symbol is a stylized letter S in the shape of a skull, which is worn as a medallion.

====In the games====
Team's Skull's intentions are to simply make enough money to survive. They have a history of disrupting [[island challenge]] events. The team's leader, [[Guzma]], once attempted the island challenge and failed. He is acquainted with [[Professor Kukui]]. [[Plumeria]], an Admin, is considered the "big sister" of the team and cares for the grunts, calling them her "cute, dumb brothers and sisters". It is eventually revealed by some of their members that the organization is composed of other people who also failed their island challenge. Their enforcer, [[Gladion]], is the son of Aether President [[Lusamine]] and joined their team to become stronger, though the grunts do not consider him a real member of their team. Their base is located in [[Po Town]].

====In the anime====
Team Skull makes their first appearance in ''[[SM001|Alola to New Adventure!]]'', where three grunts challenge [[Kiawe]] to a Pokémon battle, threatening to steal his {{p|Charizard}}. {{Ash}} and {{an|Kiawe}} team up to defeat the grunts, with Kiawe defeating all of the grunts' Pokémon with his {{TP|Kiawe|Turtonator}}'s Z-Move. Five Team Grunts appeared in ''[[SM005|Yo, Ho, Ho! Go Popplio!]]'' where they were bullying a {{TP|Lana|Popplio}} before being seen off by {{an|Lana}} using her {{DL|Lana (anime)|Lapras}}'s {{m|Ice Beam}}. Three Team Skull grunts reappeared in ''[[SM011|Young Kiawe Had a Farm!]]'' where they sought revenge on Ash and Kiawe but were seen off with {{AP|Pikachu}}'s {{m|Gigavolt Havoc}}.

==Trivia==
*In [[Generation VI]], the final battle against a villainous team's Boss takes place on a background that differs from the actual location and reflects the Team's name.
**For [[Lysandre]], the background is a fiery area resembling a Sun's corona, whereas the actual location was [[Team Flare Secret HQ]].
**For [[Archie]] and [[Maxie]], the background resembles a whirlpool or a volcano, respectively, while both battles take place in the [[Seafloor Cavern]]. Even if water and magma are featured in the chamber they are faced, they are battled on solid land. For the purposes of {{cat|moves that vary with environment}} and {{p|Burmy}}, it is treated as the default plain terrain.

Ultra Beast

Sketch:

[[File:Sun Moon Ultra Beasts artwork.png|thumb|370px|Artwork drawn by [[Hitoshi Ariga]] depicting the Ultra Beasts]]
The '''Ultra Beasts''' (Japanese: '''ウルトラビースト''' ''Ultra Beast'') are a group of {{DL|Extraterrestrial Pokémon|extradimensional Pokémon}} originating from [[Ultra Space]]. They possess power that transcends humans' understanding of the world.

Ultra Beasts infrequently appear from [[Ultra Wormhole]]s in [[Alola]]. These appearances are apparently as unexpected for the Ultra Beasts as for Alolans, which tends to make them combative. They are especially drawn to people who have passed through an [[Ultra Wormhole]], due to the residual wormhole energy on them, apparently expecting to find a wormhole they can use to return home.

There are currently ten known Ultra Beasts:
* {{p|Nihilego}} (codenamed UB-01 Symbiont)
* {{p|Buzzwole}} (codenamed UB-02 Absorption{{sup/7|S}})
* {{p|Pheromosa}} (codenamed UB-02 Beauty{{sup/7|M}})
* {{p|Xurkitree}} (codenamed UB-03 Lighting)
* {{p|Celesteela}} (codenamed UB-04 Blaster{{sup/7|M}})
* {{p|Kartana}} (codenamed UB-04 Blade{{sup/7|S}})
* {{p|Guzzlord}} (codenamed UB-05 Glutton)
* {{p|UB Burst}} (codename){{sup/7|US}}
* {{p|UB Assembly}} (codename){{sup/7|UM}}
* {{p|UB Adhesive}} (codename)

All seven Ultra Beasts that appear in [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]] share the [[Ability]] {{a|Beast Boost}}. While they are {{pkmn2|wild}}, this manifests as an aura at the start of battles that boosts one of their stats, similar to [[Totem Pokémon]]. This aura actually comes from the energy they were bathed in when they passed through an Ultra Wormhole; [[Wicke]] theorizes that they store this energy in their bodies. The three Ultra Beasts introducded in [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]] also share the Beast Boost Ability.

Most Poké Balls have difficulty recognizing Ultra Beasts as Pokémon due to their extraterrestrial origins, impairing their ability to effectively catch them. Only the [[Master Ball]] and {{ball|Beast}}s escape this impairment.

Although unconfirmed, [[Aether Foundation]] scientists hypothesized that {{p|Cosmog}} is also an Ultra Beast, due to its ability to create Ultra Wormholes. {{p|Necrozma}}'s [[Pokédex]] entry also states that it is "reminiscent of the Ultra Beasts", but when it was in the wild, the International Police reported that all Ultra Beasts it had detected had been caught, and Beast Balls are not effective at catching it.

==History==
Although an extremely rare event, legends in Alola tell of fearsome Pokémon appearing from Ultra Wormholes. The legends also tell that the [[guardian deities]] would fight fiercely against them.

Years prior to the events of [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], [[Mohn|Professor Mohn]] published a theory on Ultra Wormholes and papers describing {{p|Nihilego}}.

The Aether Foundation also conducted research on the Ultra Beasts. This included the development of the Beast Killer project to create a Pokémon—{{p|Type: Null|Type: Full}}—that could fight against Ultra Beasts. The Beast Killer project ended in failure, and the three known Type: Full were cryogenically frozen and their names changed to Type: Null. It also developed the {{ball|Beast}} to catch the Ultra Beasts.

The [[International Police]] have also tracked Ultra Beasts in the past and into the present under a secret division known as the UB Task Force. The UB Task Force is tasked with investigating the ecology of Ultra Beasts, protecting people from harm from them, and either safeguarding or destroying the Ultra Beasts. Ten years prior to the events of Sun and Moon, a three-person team composed of [[Looker]], [[Nanu]], and an unnamed {{DL|Ultra Wormhole|Faller}} came to Alola to track down and destroy a Guzzlord; in the process, the Faller was killed. The International Police refer to each of the Ultra Beasts by code names.

The first reported sightings of Buzzwole, Pheromosa, Xurkitree, Kartana, and Celesteela were after the incident at [[Aether Paradise]] where Lusamine forced Cosmog to create an Ultra Wormhole and used it to travel to Ultra Space.

==In the games==
===Pokémon Sun and Moon===
During the main story, the player encounters {{p|Nihilego}} at [[Aether Paradise]] during their first meeting with Aether President [[Lusamine]], when it emerges from a spontaneously appearing [[Ultra Wormhole]]. During the player's confrontation with Lusamine after she captures [[Nebby]], Lusamine uses Nebby's power to open Ultra Wormholes across the Alola region, bringing Ultra Beasts into the region; Nihilego is seen emerging from the portal near Lusamine, while {{p|Buzzwole}}{{sup/7|S}}/{{p|Pheromosa}}{{sup/7|M}} is seen emerging from a portal over [[Melemele Island]] and battling {{p|Tapu Koko}}. The player also encounters several {{p|Nihilego}} in [[Ultra Space]] after arriving with {{p|Solgaleo}}{{sup/7|S}}/{{p|Lunala}}{{sup/7|M}} and [[Lillie]].

After the player becomes {{pkmn|Champion}}, some Ultra Beasts remain at large around Alola. The player receives {{key|VII|Enigmatic Card|a card}} from a stranger directing them to visit the motel on [[Akala Island]]'s {{rt|8|Alola}}. When they enter the guest room, they will find [[Looker]] and [[Salon Maiden Anabel|Anabel]], who invite the player to join the International Police's UB Task Force and protect the Ultra Beasts currently loose in Alola. Upon accepting, the player begins a series of missions to capture the Ultra Beasts, spanning all four of Alola's islands, each time based out of the island's motel (or the restaurant on [[Poni Island]]). In some missions, there are multiple of the same species of Ultra Beast to be captured, and in some missions they may be found at either of two locations. If the player [[escape|flees]] from or defeats an Ultra Beast, it remains in the area and the player will still be able to find it again immediately (either at the same place or at the alternate location, if applicable). When the player is in an area where there are Ultra Beasts during a mission, the music changes from the area's normal score.

All [[Poké Ball]]s except [[Master Ball]]s and {{ball|Beast}}s have a [[catch rate]] multiplier of 1× against Ultra Beasts; the Beast Ball has a catch rate multiplier of 5× for Ultra Beasts. If a Beast Ball is used against any other type of Pokémon, its catch rate multiplier is 0.1×.

Unlike regular Pokémon, the [[Pokédex]] will not record Ultra Beasts as seen, it will only register them when they are caught. If an Ultra Beast is not in the Pokédex, its name will show as ??? in battle.


==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
The Ultra Beasts debuted in the {{chap|Sun & Moon}}, after [[Gladion]] loses against {{adv|Sun}}, he contemplates about losing his chance to get to the [[Guardian deities]] that he promises to get stronger to confront them.

At [[Lush Jungle]], {{adv|Moon}} and [[Mallow]] found {{p|Tapu Lele}} in battle with a {{p|Xurkitree}} emerging from an [[Ultra Wormhole]]. Moon attempted to capture the Xurkitree, but it managed to retreat back inside the Ultra Wormhole and escape.

==Trivia==
* The Ultra Beasts who share the same code number share at least one [[type]], and are the only Ultra Beasts that share any types.
* The [[base stats]] of the Ultra Beasts, and the levels at which they learn moves (except level 1) are all {{wp|prime number}}s. They share this trait with {{p|Cosmog}}, its evolutions, and {{p|Necrozma}}.
* The Ultra Beasts share some characteristics with numerous [[Legendary Pokémon]]: they all have base stat totals of 570, are genderless, and are scripted encounters. However, [[Legendary Pokémon#Potential Legendary Pokémon|it has not been made clear]] whether they are officially Legendary Pokémon.
* The Ultra Beasts are based on the idea of invasive species, as stated by [[Shigeru Ohmori]] in an interview in [[Pokémon Sun & Pokémon Moon: The Official Alola Region Pokédex & Postgame Adventure Guide]].

'''Megaree''' (Japanese: '''メガぴょん''' ''Megapyon''), known as '''Mega''' in [[Chuang Yi]]'s translations, is a {{p|Meganium}} that {{adv|Crystal}} owns in [[Pokémon Adventures]] and her seventh overall. Crystal received him from [[Professor Elm]]. As of ''[[PS450|With a Little Help From Hitmonchan]]'', he is level 80 and his [[Characteristic]] is "good endurance."

==History==
==={{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}===
[[File:Crystal Megaree Chikorita.png|thumb|left|200px|As a Chikorita]]
Megaree first appeared in ''[[PS091|Murkrow Row]]''. He was originally a {{p|Chikorita}} owned by [[Professor Elm]] alongside a [[Exbo|Cyndaquil]] and a {{TP|Silver|Totodile}}. After Cyndaquil and Totodile were taken by {{adv|Gold}} and {{adv|Silver}}, respectively, Chikorita was left alone in Professor Elm's laboratory.

In ''[[PS118|Three Cheers for Chikorita]]'', Chikorita learns about {{adv|Crystal}}, a [[Trainer]] who specializes in capturing Pokémon. Professor Elm initially intended to give Chikorita to Crystal, but she already had a full team and had no intention off adding any more permanent team members. Upon learning this, Chikorita gets angry and runs away to find Crystal.

He finds Crystal attempting to capture a wild {{p|Victreebel}} on {{rt|30|Johto}}. Just as Crystal attempts to attack the Victreebel with [[Archy]], Chikorita steps in the way, forcing Crystal to stop the attack. Victreebel takes this opportunity to use Chikorita as a shield, preventing Crystal from attacking. After having {{p|Smoochum|Chumee}} prevent Victreebel from escaping with {{m|Mean Look}}, Crystal captures both Chikorita and Victreebel. Crystal attempts to transfer Chikorita over to {{adv|Professor Oak}}, but Chikorita stops her and reveals he wishes to join her team. Crystal, believing Chikorita to be took weak to join on what would be a dangerous journey to capture Pokémon, refuses to let him join her team. When Chikorita still chooses to join her, Crystal sends out [[Monlee]] to battle against it. Monlee easily blocks Chikorita's {{m|Razor Leaf|attacks}} and even shatters the ground in front of Chikorita with a {{m|Mega Punch}}. Despite being outmatched, Chikorita stands its ground and refuses to run away. Impressed by its bravery, Crystal allows Chikorita to join her team and names him "Megaree". As Megaree would take its spot on Crystal's team, Chumee gave Megaree her star pendant so that he would match the rest of Crystal's Pokémon.

In ''[[PS135|Lively Larvitar]]'', Megaree was used to battle a wild {{p|Larvitar}} that was responsible for Archy's eye injury in the past. Although Larvitar proved to be a powerful opponent, it was eventually defeated when Megaree [[evolved]] into a {{p|Bayleef}}, allowing Crystal to capture it.

[[File:Crystal Megaree Bayleef.png|thumb|left|200px|As a Bayleef]]
In ''[[PS147|Lively Lugia II]]'', Megaree is happily reunited with Exbo and Totodile, who have since evolved into {{p|Quilava}} and {{p|Croconaw}}, respectively. Together, the three fend off a wild {{p|Lugia}} at the [[Whirl Islands]]. When Lugia attempts to crush them under its weight, Megaree, Exbo, and Croconaw work together to hold Lugia up. The strain of this causes Megaree, Exbo, and Croconaw to evolve into {{p|Meganium}}, {{p|Typhlosion}}, and {{p|Feraligatr}}, respectively. Thought they succeed in saving their Trainers, Lugia eventually escapes.

In ''[[PS180|The Last Battle XIV]]'', Megaree is used alongside the other starters to try and stop the [[Masked Man]]'s attempt to capture {{adv|Celebi}}.

==={{chap|Emerald}}===
[[File:Crystal and Megaree.png|thumb|right|170px|Megaree and Crystal]]
In ''[[PS335|The Final Battle VIII]]'', Megaree was used to destroy [[Guile Hideout]]'s fake {{p|Kyogre}} monster. Having learned {{m|Frenzy Plant}} from [[Ultima]], Megaree teamed up with {{adv|Red}}'s [[Saur]] and {{adv|Emerald}}'s {{TP|Emerald|Sceptile}} to unleash a triple Frenzy Plant at the fake Kyogre. Together, along with a triple {{m|Blast Burn}}, a triple {{m|Hydro Cannon}}, and a triple {{m|Volt Tackle}} from the other starters, the fake Kyogre is ultimately destroyed.

==={{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}===
In ''[[PS456|All About Arceus V]]'', Megaree, Exbo, and Silver's Feraligatr are used to attack the incomplete forms of {{adv|Dialga}}, {{adv|Palkia}}, and {{adv|Giratina}} created by {{adv|Arceus}}. Through a combination of the ultimate attacks, the three [[Legendary Pokémon]] are stopped, though this only delays their completion.

==Personality and characteristics==
Megaree is a very brave Pokémon and is described by {{adv|Crystal}} as someone with "mega watts of courage". He wastes no time jumping into difficult battles and refuses to give up. Megaree also has a strong sense of justice and hates seeing the strong prey off of the weak.

==Trivia==
[[File:Title Card XY Serena V2.png|200px|thumb|The title card segment focuses on Serena for this episode]]
* Serena reads the title card.
* [[Professor Oak's lecture|Professor Oak's Pokémon Holo Caster]]: {{p|Barbaracle}}
** Instead of Pokémon Holo Caster, {{p|Hoopa}} pops out to announce the viewers to see the trailer of the upcoming [[M18|movie]].
* This is another time where Pokémon Quiz segment features a Pokémon that has already been featured. In this case, {{p|Braixen}} was featured [[XY047|42 episodes ago]].
* {{Ash}}, {{an|Clemont}}, and {{p|Rotom}} read the preview for the [[XY080|next episode]].
* {{an|Bonnie}} seems to be aware of {{an|Serena}}'s [[AmourShipping|crush]] on Ash.
* ''[[DreamDream]]'' is used as an insert song in this episode.
* This episode features the following flashbacks of Serena during the scene when receiving her score.
** Serena telling {{kal|Grace}} she wants to become a [[Pokémon Performer]], then racing with her on {{p|Skiddo}} and win from ''[[XY053|A Race for Home!]]''.
** Serena crying at the dock while {{p|Fennekin}} and {{TP|Serena|Pancham}} try to cheer her up and cutting her hair short after losing her first Pokémon Showcase from ''[[XY060|A Showcase Debut!]]''.
* [[Serena's Braixen]] and Pancham remain outside of their {{ball|Poké}}s throughout the episode.
* The Pokémon Performers who own the {{p|Swanna}}, {{p|Psyduck}}, and {{p|Furret}} also appeared during the [[Coumarine City]] [[Pokémon Showcase]] in ''A Showcase Debut!''. Coincidentally, all three didn't make it past the Theme Performance in both Showcases.

===Errors===
* The hair tuff on the male {{p|Meowstic}} which belongs to an unknown Trainer during the scene outside of the Pokémon Showcase stadium is colored dark blue instead of white.
* When Ash, Clemont, and Bonnnie walk up to [[Miette]] after she shows up, a second {{p|Slurpuff}} is seen overlapping Miette and her Slurpuff.
* When the VS screen featuring Miette appeared, her Meowstic is missing.
* When {{an|Aria}} is shown watching {{an|Serena}}'s performance, her collar is white instead of black. This error repeats in the next two scenes.
* When Serena is walking down a hallway, backstage of the Pokémon Showcase with her Pokémon, Braixen's right paw is briefly colored yellow instead of white four times.
* The Pokémon Performers who own the {{p|Litleo}} and {{p|Vanillish}} have their key colors swapped when receiving their score.

'''Castform''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ポワルン''' ''Powalen'') is a {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon.

While it is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon, it has the ability to [[Form differences#Castform|change forms]] depending on the current [[Weather conditions|weather]].
* When the weather is calm, or it is exposed to {{weather|fog}}, {{weather|sandstorm}}s, or {{weather|Shadow Sky|dark weather}}, it becomes Normal Castform, and is {{type|Normal}}.
* When it is exposed to {{weather|intense sunlight}}, it becomes Sunny Castform, and is {{type|Fire}}.
* When it is exposed to {{weather|rain}}, it becomes Rainy Castform, and is {{type|Water}}.
* When it is exposed to {{weather|snow or hail}}, it becomes Snowy Castform, and is {{type|Ice}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Castform is an [[artificial Pokémon]] created by the [[Weather Institute]] in [[Hoenn]]. It was designed to help scientists predict the weather, and consequently changes its appearance (and [[elemental type|type]]) when the weather changes.

In its natural state, Castform is small, gray and resembles a cloud. When it is extremely sunny, Castform's lower half becomes pure white while the head turns orange with smaller orange balls surrounding it. This gives Castform's head a shape that is similar to the sun. During rain, Castform's lower half becomes a darker shade of gray. The head is blue, resembling a drop of rain. In hail or snowy weather, Castform's head turns purplish-blue. The rest of of the body changes into a mint green {{wp|cumulonimbus cloud}} that also appears to resemble a decorative ice sculpture. Castform does not have a form for sandstorms or fog.

In all forms, Castform has markings around its eyes similar to a pair of {{wp|sunglasses}}.

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

====Special abilities====
Castform has the aforementioned ability to change its form with the weather (although it lacks forms for {{weather|sandstorm}}s, {{weather|fog}} and {{weather|Shadow Sky}}). In normal weather, sandstorms, fog and Shadow Sky, Castform is {{type|Normal}} normal form; in {{weather|sunny}} weather, it is in its {{type|Fire}} Sunny Form; in {{weather|rain}}, it is in its {{type|Water}} Rainy Form; in {{weather|hail}}, it is in its {{type|Ice}} Snowy Form.

Castform is capable of learning many {{t|Fire}}-, {{t|Water}}-, {{t|Ice}}- and {{type|Normal}} moves. Castform is one of the few Pokémon that can learn {{m|Weather Ball}}.

===Behavior===
This Pokémon's feelings change with the weather.

==Trivia==
* Castform's weather-based transformations are the same color whether or not it is {{Shiny}}.
* When Castform undergoes a weather-based transformation, the graphical interlude is the same as that of a Pokémon using the move {{m|Transform}}.
* It is the only Pokémon able to learn both {{m|Ember}} and {{m|Water Gun}}, as well as the only Pokémon able to learn both {{m|Ember}} and {{m|Powder Snow}}.
** It is also the only Pokémon to learn both {{m|Fire Blast}} and {{m|Hydro Pump}} by level up, as well as the only Pokémon to learn both {{m|Fire Blast}} and {{m|Blizzard}} by level up.
* No other Pokémon have same dual [[egg group]] as Castform. In this case, both in {{egg|Fairy}} and {{egg|Indeterminate}} are unique.
* Castform will not transform in {{weather|fog}}, during a {{weather|sandstorm}} or in {{weather|Shadow Sky}}.
** However, in {{g|Mystery Dungeon}}, fog transforms it into its Rain form.
** Weather Ball will become a {{type|Rock}} move in a sandstorm and a {{type|???}} move in Shadow Sky, despite Castform not having an elemental form for it.
* Castform's Weather Ball will always receive [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]], even when its form is changed, except in a sandstorm or Shadow Sky, or if it loses its ability.
** Castform is the only Pokémon to receive this benefit from Weather Ball.
* In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]], Castform is a body size 4 despite it being a body size 1 in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|first Mystery Dungeon games]] and its in-game sprite still being the same size in the second Mystery Dungeon games. This is probably for game balance reasons.
* Castform's weather-based transformations cannot be viewed in the forms section of the {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} Pokédex, nor do they appear on the field in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. They do, however, appear in the forms section of the HeartGold and SoulSilver Pokédex.
* Despite several Pokédex entries stating that its molecules are just like water, it is not a Water-type Pokémon, though it does become one in {{weather|rain}}. It may also be a reference to the fact that it resembles a living cloud.
* Despite being noted for learning many moves that take advantage of or influence the weather, Castform cannot learn {{m|Mist}}, {{m|Haze}}, {{m|Heat Wave}} or {{m|Hurricane}}.
* Due to its Snow-cloud form, Castform is the first pure {{type2|Ice}} Pokémon in [[National Pokédex]] order.

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Castform}}
It appears to be intended to resemble and act like a living cloud. Its ability to change shape and type depending on the weather condition makes similar to a {{wp|weather balloon}}. It's also similar both in concept and design to a {{wp|teru teru bozu}}, a Japanese charm doll used to wish for good weather.

===Name origin===
Castform's name seems to be a combination of ''forecast'', predict the weather, and ''transform'', referring to its ability to change type depending on the weather. The German and French names refer to this as well.

''Powalen'' may be a combination of 天気予報 ''tenkiyohō'', weather forecast, and 変わる ''kawaru'', to change or transform.

'''Platinum Berlitz''' (Japanese: '''プラチナ・ベルリッツ''' ''Platinum Berlitz'') is the thirteenth main character of the manga series [[Pokémon Adventures]] and the female main character for the {{chap|Diamond & Pearl}} and the {{chap|Platinum}} story arcs. At first, she was only known by her family name; her given name is the same as the then unreleased third version to {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}: {{v2|Platinum}}.

==Character==
Platinum is a member of the house of Berlitz, a 200-year old and {{wp|zaibatsu|extremely financially powerful family}} of [[Sinnoh]]. She wears diamond and pearl rings. She does not give her name to commoners, instead insisting that they refer to her as '''Lady{{tt|*|Missy in the Chuang Yi versions}}''' (Japanese: '''お嬢様''' ''Ojōsama'', a term used to refer to the daughter of someone of high class).

She is very knowledgeable as a result of reading lots of books during her childhood. However, since beginning her journey she has decided that it is better to actually experience as much as possible. For this reason, Platinum challenges the [[Gym]]s of Sinnoh and also takes on other challenges such as the [[Super Contest]]s of [[Hearthome City]]. She has shown a natural tendency to recognize patterns and has an almost encyclopedic knowledge of various areas of Sinnoh and Pokémon in general, although towards the beginning of her journey, she had difficulty dealing with wild Pokémon. Despite her knowledgeable nature, Platinum originally had troubles with managing her money but was able to overcome this in her challenge of the Battle Castle.

Platinum is amazed by the closeness of Pearl and Diamond, as well as their various skills: Pearl's assortment of {{pkmn|battle|battling}} advice and Diamond's ability to cook [[Poffin]]s and instincts on Pokémon. She also is an audience for their various Manzai attempts and is amused by them at times. Platinum often can be demanding of Pearl, annoying him. Platinum is also unaware of a [[CommonerShipping|crush]] Diamond has on her. It seems that, after saving her from [[Team Galactic]], Platinum gains respect for Diamond and Pearl, by calling them by their first names, but, she still refuses to give her name. The boys assume her name is "Lady", hearing it from Pearl's [[Chatler]], who repeated it from a conversation between Platinum and her butler. After formally accepting them as her bodyguards and friends, she revealed her real name to them.

==History==
==={{chap|Diamond & Pearl}}===
[[File:Platinum Berlitz.png|thumb|left|Platinum at the beginning of the seventh chapter]]

Platinum is introduced at the beginning of the seventh chapter as a member of the ancient Berlitz family, which has a tradition for its member's coming of age to travel to the peak of [[Mt. Coronet]] to obtain materials to make their personal family crest. At the suggestion of the Berlitz's butler, {{adv|Sebastian}}, her father hired [[Paka and Uji|two bodyguards]] to protect her on her journey. [[Professor Rowan]] provided her with three [[Pokédex]]es, three [[Pokétch]]es, and the three Sinnoh [[starter Pokémon]] so that Platinum would share them with her bodyguards to assist him in his research.

However, because {{adv|Diamond}} and {{adv|Pearl}} coincidentally match the bodyguards' description--one in a red scarf and the other in a green scarf--Platinum presumes they are her bodyguards instead, and the duo think that this journey is a sort of {{wp|Reality television|reality TV show}}. Platinum assumed that they were actually her bodyguards, chosen so the trio would not seem odd.

After several misadventures, the three reach [[Oreburgh City]] where Platinum plans to have her first Gym Battle. Platinum goes to challenge the Oreburgh Gym and battles the Gym Leader, [[Roark]]. Despite initial troubles, Platinum manages to defeat him with the assistance of Diamond and Pearl. Next, the group arrives at the [[Floaroma Town]] where they meet the daughter of the [[Valley Windworks]] Manager whose father had gone missing. They go to the Windworks to find out what happened and is attacked by a [[Mars|mysterious woman]]. Platinum watches as she defeats Diamond and Pearl and escapes with a windmill. After watching the two boys risk their lives, she gains a new set of respect for them and starts calling them by their first names.

After an adventure in the [[Old Chateau]], Platinum and her travelling companions meet [[Gardenia]], the [[Eterna City]] Gym Leader. After getting acquainted with her, Platinum begins training for her next Gym battle; the training causes Piplup, Chimler, and Tru to evolve into their first stage forms. They meet [[Cynthia]], a passerby that had witnessed the evolution of their Pokémon who offers to help her with her Gym training. Next, Platinum challenges the Gym where she battles against Gardenia. Platinum manages to defeat her after taking advantage of Gardenia's battle strategy. They are given bikes by [[Rad Rickshaw]] who believes that they had rescued him from the clutches of [[Team Galactic]] and with the help of Diamond and Pearl, she learns how to ride it.

Next, the group travels to [[Mt. Coronet]] where they are attacked by [[Cyrus]], the leader of Team Galactic because they were annoying him. After being rescued from the rubble by Diamond and a [[Rayhiko|wild Luxray]], they arrive at [[Hearthome City]] where enters the [[Super Contest]]. After a misunderstanding, the audience decides to sabotage Platinum's performance and she becomes discouraged. Despite the initial trouble, with some encouragement from Diamond, Platinum is able to win the contest; she then takes Diamond and Pearl to accept the ribbon together, as they helped her through it. They later meet the Hearthome Gym Leader, [[Fantina]], and she takes them to the [[Lost Tower]] where Platinum watches two Trainers battle against some Pokémon.

After separating from Fantina, Platinum, Diamond, and Pearl arrive in [[Solaceon Town]], where they meet the [[Pokémon News Press]] and help a pair of {{p|Unown}} find their friends in the [[Solaceon Ruins]]. After arriving at [[Veilstone City]], Platinum finds the [[Veilstone Game Corner]], and mistakes it for a hotel. Platinum develops a slight gambling addiction and continues playing the slots until Diamond and Pearl find her and take her to the hotel they were staying at. After practicing with an item that Platinum had won at the slots, they almost hit a young woman with an {{m|Ember}} fired by Chimler. The girl introduces herself to them as the Veilstone Gym Leader, [[Maylene]], and accepts Platinum's Gym challenge. Later, at the Gym, Platinum, Diamond, and Pearl go through the Gym and they eventually get to Maylene's location. As they begin battling, Platinum is shocked to find out that her Pokédex has gone missing and without it, she is unable to concentrate. After Diamond (who she had sent to find her Pokédex) reports to Pearl that he had found the Pokédex, he and Platinum get into a brief argument about Platinum breaking her promise to not go back to the Game Corner. Platinum quickly regains her composure and is able to defeat Maylene and reveals that she had never gone back to the Game Corner, but was almost tempted to.

After they walk in the dark streets of Veilstone after defeating Maylene, Platinum is knocked out by two unknown figures (actually her real bodyguards, Paka and Uji) and taken to the [[Veilstone Department Store]]. Eventually, she wakes up while Diamond, Pearl, Paka, and Uji battle Team Galactic outside and decides to work out with the exercise equipment she found inside of it.

Later, after the conflict with Team Galactic is resolved, Platinum, Diamond, and Pearl travel to Lake Valor, where they meet [[Dr. Footstep]]. After a wild {{p|Hippowdon}} sends them flying, Platinum and Diamond land near the lake and are attacked by two {{tc|Scientist}}s that were preventing anyone from going near it. They eventually defeat the scientists and meet up with Pearl and Dr. Footstep.

Later, at the [[Great Marsh]], Platinum, Diamond, and Pearl try and capture some Pokémon for Platinum to use in her Gym battle against the [[Pastoria City]] Gym Leader, [[Crasher Wake]]. After a series of failed events, Platinum just opts for borrowing Diamond's Tru and goes to the Gym despite being covered in mud. Platinum goes through the Gym, reaches Crasher Wake, and after a tough battle, is able to defeat him with Tru.

They later travel to the {{si|Pokémon Mansion}} where they meet up with Cynthia again and help her with a {{p|Psyduck}} outbreak on [[Sinnoh Route 210|Route 210]]. They meet Cynthia's grandmother and follow her to the [[Celestic Town]] so that they can see the ruins. The ruins are attacked by the leader of Team Galactic, Cyrus, who battles Diamond and Pearl while Platinum and Cynthia's grandmother watch from the sidelines. After Cyrus makes his leave, Platinum and the others meet up with Fantina again and fly to her Gym at Hearthome City. After some training, Platinum challenges the Gym where she finds some difficulty because of the Gyms challenge forcing Trainers to think logically with math problems and then dropping that logic while facing Fantina. Fantina has her {{p|Mismagius}} create confusing illusions during the battle, causing the knowledgeable and logical Platinum to get painful headache. With some encouragement from Pearl, Platinum manages to overcome the illusion and is able to defeat Fantina.

Soon after, Platinum and the others find a news report on Fantina's television about Professor Rowan and his assistant, Platinum's father, having gone missing. Platinum, worried about her father, immediately sets off to [[Canalave City]], the place where they went missing, and ends up in the [[Canalave Gym]] after hearing her fathers voice inside of it. There, the group meets Gym Leader [[Byron]] and Platinum, believing him to be the cause of her fathers disappearance, attacks and easily defeats his Pokémon. After some clearing up, Platinum finds out that Byron did in fact, not kidnap the scientists, but is instead trying to figure out how to free them from a special cage that a [[Cloaked Grunt|Galactic Grunt]] had trapped them in.

Platinum goes to talk to her father and Professor Rowan and is shocked to find out that Diamond and Pearl are not her true bodyguards and that they have been lying to her the whole time. Needing some time to think, Platinum runs off; later that night, Platinum approached by the Cloak Grunt while sleeping, he frees the Professor and Platinum's father and reveals Team Galactic's plans to her. The next day, after Diamond and Pearl have revealed everything to Byron, Professor Rowan, and Sir Berlitz and are about to leave, Platinum stops them, reads a letter that is filled with apologies for every time she has lied to them and finally tells them her full name.

Ignoring her father's protests, Platinum decides that she, Diamond, and Pearl shall split up to save the Legendary Pokémon from the clutches of Team Galactic. After receiving the Mine Badge from Byron, Platinum sets off to northern area, [[Snowpoint City]] which holds [[Lake Acuity]]. The next morning, while in a hotel, Platinum sheds tears over to the fact that the sound her Pokédex makes when it is near Diamond and Pearl's, the "morning sound", is not playing, showing that she is truly alone for the first time.

After arriving at [[Sinnoh Route 216|Route 216]], Platinum decides to try skiing and accidentally ends up angering a group of {{p|Graveler}} on her first attempt. She manages to get away from them but gets caught in the snowstorm and almost freezes to death before being saved by Snowpoint Gym Leader, [[Candice]]. After putting on her new coat, Platinum notices Maylene walking through the snow and joins her while she gives her a tour of Snowpoint. After Maylene tells Platinum about Lake Acuity, she runs off to the [[Snowpoint Gym]] to get permission to go there by Candice.

After literally plowing her way through the Gyms challenge, Platinum reaches Candice and begins battling her. Though Platinum starts off with the advantage, things quickly get bad for her but she eventually manages to defeat Candice with the help of her newest team member, {{p|Lopunny}}. After receiving the Icicle Badge from Candice, she and Maylene join Platinum in her goal to stop Team Galactic from blowing up the three lakes. After taking a shortcut, they all eventually make it to Lake Acuity where they are confronted by one of the Team Galactic Commanders, [[Jupiter]]. Despite their best efforts, Jupiter is far too powerful for any of them to handle and are subsequently defeated. Jupiter succeeds in capturing {{p|Uxie}} while Platinum is forced to take Candice, Maylene, and herself to a [[Snowpoint Temple|mysterious temple]] while she has her Rapidash use his flames to protect them from the cold. Before falling unconscious, Platinum hears the sound of a Pokémon and tries to capture it in case it tries to attack them but falls asleep before she can; her Poké Ball then rolls into the temple, revealing a mysterious {{p|Regigigas|silhouette}}.

Later, Platinum wakes up in the Snowpoint Pokémon Center with no idea as to how she got there. Deciding to get stronger, Candice calls Byron and tells him to send a strong person to train them for a rematch with Jupiter. They go to the [[Spring Path]] to meet up with their tutor, the Sunyshore Gym Leader, [[Volkner]]. Due to a misunderstanding, Volkner loses interest in training them but with some begging from Platinum, he changes his mind and agrees to help while also making the training a Gym Battle.

After finishing her training and receiving the Beacon Badge, Platinum rushes off to the [[Galactic Veilstone Building]] while Candice and Maylene stay behind to finish their training. Platinum manages to easily sneak inside thanks to a previously laid distraction made by Pearl and begins searching for the [[Lake guardians]]. As she searches, her Pokédex begins ringing the morning sound, telling Platinum that Pearl and Diamond are somewhere nearby. Platinum manages to maneuver through a room filled with smoke and a loud painful noise created by the battle with Diamond and the Cloaked Grunt and reaches the container that has Uxie locked inside of it but is trapped inside with the Cloaked Grunt's {{p|Cradily}}. Realizing the Cloaked Grunt's obsession with the Pokédex will be his weakness, Diamond commands the other two to sacrifice their Pokédexes in order to distract them. Though painful at first, they do it, distracting the Cloaked Grunt's Pokémon long enough for all three to press the button that would release {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}.

Cynthia finds the three lying on the ground, knocked unconscious from the light that the Lake guardians created, and hastily takes them to the [[Spear Pillar]]. While travelling on [[Cynthia's Garchomp]], Platinum gives Diamond a {{p|Mamoswine}} that he names Moo and reveals her newly earned Icicle and Beacon Badges. They eventually reach the Spear Pillar and the effect of {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}'s battle causes time and space to distort around them. While Diamond and Pearl battle Dialga and Palkia, Platinum and Cynthia find the Gym Leaders, all knocked out from a previous battle by Cyrus. Candice, Gardenia, and Maylene all manage to wake up and give Platinum a {{p|Froslass}}, {{p|Cherrim}}, and {{p|Pachirisu}} but an attack fired from Dialga and Palkia breaks their Poké Balls, preventing them from being used. The attack causes a scroll that Cynthia was holding to fall out; Platinum picks it up and is able to read the archaic text on it that reveals the powers of Dialga and Palkia.

Time and Space begin to distort even further, sending people and Pokémon to random locations, even sending Dr. Footstep to the Spear Pillar. A black hole begins to form in the sky and begins sucking everyone into it while Platinum, Pearl, and Diamond try to keep the unconscious Gym Leaders from being sucked into it. As Diamond battles Dialga and Palkia with his newly acquired {{p|Regigigas}} and gives a speech on his view of Time and Space, Platinum realizes that his words are causing an imbalance on the Red Chain that is controlling the dragons. Platinum commands Diamond and Pearl to attack Dialga and Palkia at full power and they succeed in destroying the Red Chain, freeing them from Cyrus's control. Dialga and Palkia defeat Cyrus and the Sinnoh Pokédex holders celebrate their victory with a fist bump while Cynthia, Dialga and Palkia smile right next to them.

With Cyrus defeated and Platinum being on the Spear Pillar, she manages to make the crest that she had set out to do at the beginning of the seventh chapter. Platinum learns of the fate of her original bodyguards from Diamond and Pearl and decides that she has to go rescue them. As they go to take the Gym Leaders and Cyrus to the hospital, Diamond spots someone spying on them with a strange machine. Byron, the [[Underground Man]], Sir Berlitz, and Professor Rowan, all emerge from the ground and when Byron takes the machine from the man, it causes {{p|Giratina|mysterious black tentacles}} to shoot from the black hole and pull Dialga, Palkia, and the unconscious Cyrus into it. The man introduces himself as [[Charon]] and makes his escape; Diamond's [[Tung]] manages to steal a notebook from him just before he disappears from view.

Next, Platinum's mother, Professor Yanase Berlitz, is seen on a ship and receives a call from Platinum. She tells her daughter that they have found where Paka and Uji may have been sent to, the [[Distortion World]].

==={{chap|Platinum}}===
The eighth chapter opens up with Platinum writing a letter to her mother that reveals that she is going to the [[Battle Zone]] alone while Diamond and Pearl are investigating the notes that were taken from Charon. She buys a [[villa]] and decides to use it as her base of operations. Platinum notices someone approaching her and attacks with her Lopunny; the person is revealed to be member of the International Police, [[Looker]]. They team up so that they can gather information about the Distortion World from the people in the Battle Zone.

After an accident involving Lady [[Caitlin]], Platinum decides to challenge the [[Battle Castle]] first. They travel to the Battle Castle and Platinum starts her challenge of the facility. At first, it seems like Platinum can easily get through the challenge but starts getting worried when she learns she has to manage her Castle Points, and as a rich young woman, managing is something she has never done before. Eventually, she manages to reach the Frontier Brain, [[Castle Valet Darach]], and does battle with him. Despite initial trouble, she manages to defeat him, learning how to manage her assets in the process.

After winning her first [[commemorative print]], she and Looker are introduced to [[Buck]], who had overheard them talking about [[Stark Mountain]]. Buck takes a picture of Team Galactic and goes to Stark Mountain under the belief that they are sneaking around there to capture the Legendary Pokémon {{p|Heatran}} while Platinum and Looker go back to the villa to decide what their next plan is. The next morning, Platinum goes to the [[Battle Arcade]] after being entranced by the odd music of the Battle Arcade's spokesman.

She goes through the Battle Arcade easily thanks to the skills she had gained by playing on the slots in Veilstone City. Eventually she reaches the Frontier Brain, [[Arcade Star Dahlia]], and begins battling her. Due to an unexpected earthquake, Platinum is unable to press the button that signifies the event the battle will have and Dahlia does it instead. The roulette stops on the Pokémon swap button, causing Platinum and Dahlia to switch their teams. Platinum, unable to harm her own Pokémon, has troubles fighting Dahlia but some words of encouragement from the Arcade Star allow her to turn the battle around and defeat her.

==Trivia==
* In the beginning of the Diamond & Pearl chapter of Pokémon Adventures, there were some moments where Platinum's first name was actually said, but her first name was always covered by another speech bubble to show that it was drowned out by that person's speech.
* Platinum is one of three Pokédex holders to have a known last name, the other two are {{adv|Blue}} and {{adv|Sapphire}}. Out of the three, she is the only one not to share her last name with an in-game [[Pokémon Professor|professor]], as she is not related to one.
* Platinum is the only female Pokédex holder who does not name her Pokémon.
* [[James]], [[Juan]] and [[Selphy]] also have butlers named Sebastian.

'''Double Hit''' (Japanese: '''ダブルアタック''' ''Double Attack'') is a damage-dealing {{type2|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation IV]].

==Effect==
===Generation IV===
Double Hit does damage, hitting twice per use.

Double Hit will hit twice even if it breaks a {{m|Substitute}}. {{m|Bide}} and {{m|Counter}} will only acknowledge one hit of this move.

===Generation V===
Unlike the previous generation, if [[Focus Sash]], [[Focus Band]], or {{a|Sturdy}} activate before the last hit is dealt, the following hit will cause the defending Pokémon to faint. Each hit will also cause {{a|Weak Armor}} to activate.

===Other effects===
An {{p|Aipom}} who knows this move will [[Evolution|evolve]] into {{p|Ambipom}} when leveled up.

==Trivia==
* No Pokémon have the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Jellicent and its pre-evolution.
* Jellicent and its {{p|Frillish|pre-evolution}}, along with {{p|Unfezant}} are the only [[Generation V]] Pokémon that have [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|gender differences]].
** They are also the only Pokémon, besides {{p|Nidoran}}, whose gender differences are visible in their minisprites.
* Even though Jellicent and its pre-evolution's species are the ''Floating Pokémon'', they don't have the ability [[Levitate (ability)|Levitate]]. This is even more notable due to the fact that Levitate's Japanese name is ''Floating''.

===Origin===
Jellicent and its pre-evolution were most likely inspired by the {{wp|Nurarihyon}}, a {{wp|jellyfish}} {{wp|youkai}} that is either shown as a demonized jellyfish or as a jellyfish-like man who wears refined, sometimes regal, clothing. It is also possible that they was inspired by the Kurage no Hinotama, a sort of jellyfish-like {{wp|will-o'-the-wisp}}. Its design is inspired by the jellyfish, in particular the {{wp|Crown Jellyfish}}, and monarch attire; the male form's appearance based on a king's while the female's is based on a queen's.

====Name origin====
Its name is likely a combination of ブルー ''burū'', blue, and エンジェル ''enjeru'', angel; reference to {{wp|Sea angel}}s.

==Trivia==
* No Pokémon have the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Jellicent and its pre-evolution.
* Jellicent and its {{p|Frillish|pre-evolution}}, along with {{p|Unfezant}} are the only [[Generation V]] Pokémon that have [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|gender differences]].
** They are also the only Pokémon, besides {{p|Nidoran}}, whose gender differences are visible in their minisprites.
* Even though Jellicent and its pre-evolution's species are the ''Floating Pokémon'', they don't have the ability [[Levitate (ability)|Levitate]]. This is even more notable due to the fact that Levitate's Japanese name is ''Floating''.

===Origin===
Jellicent and its pre-evolution were most likely inspired by the {{wp|Nurarihyon}}, a {{wp|jellyfish}} {{wp|youkai}} that is either shown as a demonized jellyfish or as a jellyfish-like man who wears refined, sometimes regal, clothing. It is also possible that they was inspired by the Kurage no Hinotama, a sort of jellyfish-like {{wp|will-o'-the-wisp}}. Its design is inspired by the jellyfish, in particular the {{wp|Crown Jellyfish}}, and monarch attire; the male form's appearance based on a king's while the female's is based on a queen's.

====Name origin====
Its name is likely a combination of ブルー ''burū'', blue, and エンジェル ''enjeru'', angel; reference to {{wp|Sea angel}}s.

* Joltik and Galvantula are the only Pokémon capable of having the {{a|Unnerve}} ability that do not have it as their hidden ability.

===Origin===
Galvantula is based on a {{wp|tarantula}}, or a {{wp|jumping spider}}.

====Name origin====
''Galvantula'' is a portmanteau of the words ''{{wp|galvanization}}'' and ''tarantula''. ''Dentula'' is likely a combination of 電気 ''denki'', electricity, or 電柱 ''denchū'', lightpole, and タランチュラ ''taranchura'', tarantula. May also tie in with ''chū'', an alternate reading of 虫 ''mushi'', meaning bug.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon have the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Frillish and its evolution.
* Frillish and its {{p|Jellicent|evolution}}, along with {{p|Unfezant}}, are the only [[Generation V]] Pokémon that have [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|gender differences]].
** They are also the only Pokémon, besides {{p|Nidoran}}, whose gender differences are visible in a PC Box, or when viewing the party.
* Even though Frillish and its evolution's species are the ''Floating Pokémon'', and Frillish has been seen floating in the anime, they don't have the ability [[Levitate (ability)|Levitate]]. This is even more notable due to the fact that Levitate's Japanese name is ''Floating''.

===Origin===
Frillish and its evolution were most likely inspired by the {{wp|Nurarihyon}}, a {{wp|jellyfish}} {{wp|youkai}} that is either shown as a demonized jellyfish or as a jellyfish-like man who wears refined, sometimes regal, clothing. It is also possible that they was inspired by the Kurage no Hinotama, a sort of jellyfish-like {{wp|will-o'-the-wisp}}. Its design is inspired by the jellyfish and {{wp|Victorian fashion|Victorian-style}} monarch attire: the male form's appearance based on a king's while the female's is based on a queen's.

====Name origin====
Pururiru is likely a combination of プルプル ''purupuru'', soft, and リル ''riru'', {{wp|rill}} or フリル ''furiru'', {{wp|ruffle|frill}}.

(Japanese: '''{{tt|ネジ山|ネジやま}}''' ''Spiral Mountain'') is a location in {{game|Black and White|s}}. It is in the [[Unova]] region to the north of {{rt|7|Unova}} and its eastern terminus is in [[Icirrus City]].

It bears a resemblance to a mine and has a complex network of caves. The mountain becomes filled with snow in winter, providing easier travel to different areas but also blocking some tunnels.

The [[Ice Rock]] is located in the lowest floor of the cave. If an {{p|Eevee}} is leveled up in this place, it will evolve into {{p|Glaceon}}.

Also present in the mountain is a man who will give the player a random [[Fossil]] of the [[Kanto]], [[Hoenn]] or [[Sinnoh]] regions once a day after receiving the [[National Pokédex]].

'''Beedrill''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''スピアー''' ''Spear'') is a dual-type {{2t|Bug|Poison}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Kakuna}} starting at [[level]] 10. It is the final form of {{p|Weedle}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Beedrill mostly resembles a bipedal wasp, however it only has four legs instead of six. Beedrill's head is round with a slightly pointed mouth, with large, shiny red eyes and antennae in the shape of the number 7. Its legs are connected to its body by its thorax, and the first two are tipped with long, conical stingers. It stands on its other two legs, which are long, segmented and insectoid in shape. Beedrill has rounded, veined wings, and another stinger on its striped abdomen.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
They have incredibly painful {{m|Poison Sting|stings}}, and {{m|Agility|move extremely fast}}. They chase after intruders relentlessly in a swarm.

===Behavior===
They are highly territorial and normally live in colonies. Disturbing a swarm of Beedrill will cause the whole colony to attack. Beedrill is depicted as being very quick, so it's extremely difficult to avoid its attack after approaching its nest.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Forest.gif|left|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon}}]]
Most Beedrill nest in forests and misty wooded areas. They can be encountered in [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]].

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Like bees, it might be possible that it collects nectar, but it is also described to use sharp, poisonous stings to defeat prey, then taking the victim back to its nest for food.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Beedrill DP099.png|thumb|right|210px|A swarm of Beedrill in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Casey's Beedrill]]====
Ash captured a Beedrill in the [[Bug-Catching Contest]], but he gave it to {{an|Casey}} because she is a huge fan of yellow and black Pokémon.

====[[Jimmy's Beedrill]]====
{{jo|Jimmy}} of [[New Bark Town]] owns a Beedrill which was seen in ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]''

====Other====
Beedrill's first non-cameo appearance was in ''[[EP004|Challenge of the Samurai]]'', where a swarm of them stole [[Ash's Butterfree|Ash's Metapod]] after evolving from {{p|Kakuna}}. The reason for this was to avenge Ash for failing to capture the {{p|Weedle}} (and startling it), which subsequently fled after Samurai arrived.

In ''[[EP077|The Fourth Round Rumble]]'' a trainer named [[Jeanette Fisher]] used a Beedrill against [[Ash's Bulbasaur]].

During ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', [[The Phantom]] used two of these Poison Bee Pokémon to chase Ash and friends.

===Minor appearances===
Beedrill has appeared in a lot of episodes, mostly having an antagonistic role to Ash and {{ashfr|friends}} who are usually attacked by a swarm of Beedrill and end up running away.

In ''[[EP084|The Lost Lapras]]'', an obnoxious trainer who was attacking a Lapras had a Beedrill.

A Beedrill was used by one of the students of the [[Pokémon Trainer's School]] in ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School!]]''.

A Beedrill is used in the [[PokéRinger]] Contest in ''[[AG080|That's Just Swellow]]''.

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Kanto}}
{{Animedexbody|EP004|Beedrill|Ash's Pokédex|Beedrill. This Pokémon is an evolved form of {{p|Weedle}}, following its {{p|Kakuna}} stage. Its {{m|Poison Sting|sting}} is highly poisonous.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|original|Kanto}}

==In the manga==
===In the Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
In the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]] manga, Ash caught a Beedrill in Kanto, and it was part of a swarm that he had disturbed when he caught a {{p|Mankey}}. He thought this Beedrill, along with Mankey, would help him to raise his Trainer level, but it couldn't.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
A herd of angry Beedrill attacked {{adv|Red}} because [[Saur]] accidentally hit their hive. Both the trainer and his Pokémon were badly stung afterwards.

Later, [[Giovanni]] shows that one of his most treasured and strongest team members is a Beedrill he caught in his childhood from [[Viridian Forest]]. It is also one of the few members of his team that isn't a {{type2|Ground}}.

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

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

*{{TFG|Next Quest}}: {{TFG ID|Next Quest|Beedrill|26}}

==Other appearances==
===Super Smash Bros.===
Beedrill was in the first [[Super Smash Bros.]] game. When a [[Poké Ball]] was opened, one would come out and fly away. A few seconds later a whole swarm would fly by and attack everyone on the field except the user. It did not appear again in [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] and its role was taken over by {{p|Unown}}.

==Trivia==
* Beedrill's English name was originally going to be spelled with only one "L" instead of two.
* Beedrill is the first Pokémon in National Pokédex order that can learn a [[signature move]], in its case {{m|Twineedle}}. However, in Gen V Beedrill lost this status, due to {{p|Shubarugo}} also being able to learn it via level-up. This status now belongs to {{p|Meowth}} (with [[Pay Day (move)|Pay Day]])
* Although Beedrill clearly flies, it is not part {{type2|Flying}} nor does it have the ability {{a|Levitate}}. It shares this trait with {{p|Venomoth}}, {{p|Heracross}}, {{p|Dustox}}, {{p|Volbeat}}, {{p|Illumise}} and {{p|Ulgamoth}}.
* While Beedrill cannot learn {{m|Iron Defense}} itself, it can be taught as a Kakuna before [[evolution|evolving]] it. This trait is shared with {{p|Butterfree}}, {{p|Dustox}}, {{p|Beautifly}}, {{p|Huntail}}, {{p|Gorebyss}}, and {{p|Salamence}}.
* In ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'', when {{jo|Marina}}'s {{p|Jigglypuff}} uses {{m|Sing}}, it has no affect on Beedrill. Jimmy states that its wings beat so fast that they blocks all sound waves before they reach its ears. Despite this statement, Beedrill cannot have the ability {{a|Soundproof}}.
* As of [[Generation V]], Beedrill's [[Effort values|EV Yield]] (2 Attack, 1 Sp. Def) is unique.

===Origin===
Its design appears to simply be a stylized bee or {{wp|wasp}}. However, it has a much closer resemblance to an {{wp|Asian giant hornet}}. Its {{shiny}} form may be based on the {{wp|Agapostemon}}, as both are green in color.

====Name origin====
Beedrill's name is a combination of ''{{wp|bee}}'' and ''drill'', indicating the needle-like arms it wields. ''Spear'' also refers to its stingers. In addition, its Japanese name could contain a reversal of ''Apis'', the name for the {{wp|honey bee}} genus.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Bibor - From ''Biene'' (bee) and ''Bohrer'' (drill).
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Dardargnan - From ''{{wp|d'Artagnan}}'' and ''dard'' (sting).
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 독침붕 ''Dokchimbung'' - From ''dokchim'' stinger (lit. venom needle) and ''bung'' (buzz).
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan) & (Hong Kong)]]: 大針蜂 ''Dà Zhēn Fēng'' - "Giant stinger hornet".
*Hungarian: Óriásméh - "Giant bee". Only in Mewtwo Returns, where it was mistakenly translated.

The only distinct difference between the [http://www.jdemirdjian.com/images2009/Yorkshire%20Terrier.jpg Yorkshire Terrier] and the [http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/3/38/Silkyterrier125.jpg Australian Silky Terrier] is that the latter has a longer snout, a feature which isn't reflected in any of the Yorterrie line's artwork. I think we're best sticking with the Yorkshire Terrier as its main design inspiration after Yorterrie's namesake. '''[[user:Emp|Emp]], out''' 16:01, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

'''Corsola''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サニーゴ''' ''Sunnygo'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Rock}} Pokémon.

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

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Corsola is a small, pink, roundish Pokémon with branch-like growths on its back. It has a white underside with four stubby legs. Corsola also has a pair of pink, stubby arms. Corsola's face appears to resemble {{p|Chansey}}'s.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Corsola are known to have great regenerative powers. Unlike real coral, which can take years to grow, if any of their horns are broken, it can grow back in as little as a single night. However, in order for this to function properly, they need clean ocean water. They cannot survive in polluted water.

Corsola is somewhat of a defensive Pokémon. It is capable of using self-healing attacks such as {{m|Recover}} and {{m|Aqua Ring}}. Corsola is also capable of using a few stat-boosting moves such as {{m|Barrier}}, {{m|Calm Mind}}, and {{m|Amnesia}}. Corsola is one of the few Pokémon that can learn {{m|Power Gem}} and also learns some {{type2|Ground}} moves, such as {{m|Earth Power}}.

===Behavior===
Corsola often have a plucky, cheerful disposition and often form large social groups in their habitats. Occasionally these groups get so large that people may live atop them - as is the case in [[Pacifidlog Town]]. Although they gear towards the defensive side of battling, Corsola usually show a cheerful determination and are prepared to do the best that they can.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Sea.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon}}]]
Corsola live in the warm shallow waters of southern seas. Their environment needs to have plenty of clear water in order to thrive.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Corsola sustain themselves by absorbing nutrients from clear ocean water.

==Trivia==
* Corsola was the only {{type2|Rock}} Pokémon that could learn {{m|Power Gem}} before {{v2|Platinum}}, despite Power Gem being a Rock-type move.
* Corsola is the only non-{{t|Grass}} Pokémon to learn {{m|Nature Power}}.
* Corsola is the only non-{{t|Grass}} Pokémon to learn {{m|Ingrain}}. This may be due to the fact that corals are often rooted to a single spot and grow like plants.
*Corsola and Relicanth are the only Water/Rock Pokémon that are not revived [[Fossil|fossil]] Pokémon.
** However, {{p|Relicanth}} is considered to be an ancient Pokémon nevertheless.
*Corsola is the only Rock type Pokémon that can learn {{m|Icicle Spear}}.
*Corsola is the only pink {{type2|Rock}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Corsola is based on {{wp|coral}}, possibly {{wp|red coral}}.

====Name origin====
Corsola's name may be a combination of ''coral'' and ''sole'', a piece of coral, or ''solar''. Its Japanese appears to be a combination of ''sunny'' and 珊瑚 ''sango'', coral.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Corasonn - From ''Koralle'' (coral) and ''Sonne'' (sun).
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Corayon - From ''corail'' (coral) and ''rayon'' (ray). May also be a pun on ''crayon''.
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 코산호 ''Kosanho''

'''Paul''' (Japanese: '''シンジ''' ''Shinji'') is a [[rival]] of {{Ash}} in the {{pkmn|anime}}. He is from [[Veilstone City]] in [[Sinnoh]]. He was first seen at the end of ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation]]'', though his full introduction was in ''[[DP003|When Pokémon Worlds Collide!]]''. He is {{Ash}}'s first and main {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} rival, though Paul ended this rivalry after his loss to Ash in [[DP188]].

==History==
{{spoiler}}
At the beginning it was assumed that Paul was a trainer just starting out. However this was proven false in ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training]]'' where he revealed that he had already traveled through [[Kanto]], [[Johto]], and [[Hoenn]], participating in their respective {{pkmn|League}}s but didn't win anything before returning to [[Sinnoh]]. In ''[[DP128|A Pyramiding Rage!]]'', it was revealed that Kanto was the very first region he traveled through.

''[[DP128|A Pyramiding Rage!]]'' was an important episode that revealed much about Paul's motivation as a Pokémon trainer and more about his character. When Reggie was a roaming Pokémon trainer, he had lost to {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}}. Reggie's loss to Brandon is what caused Paul to be so adamant about strength in battle. This single loss is also what caused Paul to become the callous person he was, and that was because of how his brother handled the loss. Instead of bearing the shame of his loss to Brandon, Reggie moved on with his life and put the loss behind him. Paul found this to be unacceptable, and he became disappointed of his brother. He challenged Brandon to a [[full battle]] in hopes that he would be able to do what his brother never could. However, Paul lost to Brandon without being able to [[fainting|knock out]] any of Brandon's Pokémon. Brandon says that this loss was because Paul was unable to control his emotions.

Following Reggie's suggestion in ''[[DP128|A Pyramiding Rage!]]'', Paul battled {{Ash}} in a [[full battle]] in ''[[DP131|Pedal to the Mettle!]]'' and ''[[DP132|Evolving Strategies!]]''. Here, he shows his true colors in battle and, despite Ash's {{p|Chimchar}} evolving into {{AP|Monferno}} and three of Ash's Pokémon using the [[Counter Shield]] strategy, Paul won the match easily with only at a loss of two Pokémon overall, where {{p|Ursaring|one}} defeated half of Ash's team nearly single-handedly. He had his Pokémon use a broad variety of strategies, which he kept up his sleeve until this battle, such as tempting Ash to send his {{AP|Staraptor}} up against his {{p|Torterra}} so he could attack it with {{m|Stone Edge}}, {{p|Electabuzz}} using {{m|Light Screen}} to aid its comrades, using his Ursaring against [[Ash's Pikachu]] so as to activate its {{a|Guts}} ability, and his {{p|Magmortar}} using {{m|Rock Tomb}} to protect itself against Water-type attacks. As a result, his strategy of completely overwhelming and outsmarting Ash with his more powerful Pokémon team succeeded.
[[File:Ash and Paul.png|thumb|left|250px|Paul and Ash]]
In ''[[DP155|Double-Time Battle Training!]]'', it was revealed that Paul had earned the {{Badge|Mine}} from [[Canalave Gym]] and, by doing so, had collected the eight badges he required to enter the [[Sinnoh League]].

Paul reappeared in ''[[DP163|Fighting Ire with Fire!]]'', encountering Ash for the first time since their full battle. He also met his admirer {{an|Barry}} for the first time; however, Paul wasn't impressed by him and refused his offer for a battle, suggesting he battle Ash instead. He later watched the battle between [[Ash's Monferno]] and [[Barry's Empoleon]] and when {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} and Empoleon were nearly crushed by one of [[Team Rocket]]'s damaged mechas, he saved the three with the help of [[Paul's Electivire|his Electabuzz]]. He then witnessed Monferno evolving into {{AP|Infernape}}, who then saved Electabuzz and the other Pokémon from getting crushed. Paul was impressed by Infernape, and gained a little respect for Ash at how well he had raised it. When asked by Ash if they could have another full battle, Paul confirmed they would in the [[Sinnoh League]], and that Reggie was looking forward to seeing it.

In ''[[DP182|An Old Family Blend!]]'', he was shown in the stadium along with all the other competitors. In ''[[DP183|League Unleashed!]]'', he passed the preliminary round. In ''[[DP184|Casting a Paul on Barry!]]'', with his superior tactics and the superior power of his Pokémon, he defeated {{an|Barry}} in the third round. His next battle was against his rival Ash in ''[[DP186|Familiarity Breeds Strategy!]]'', continuing into ''[[DP187|A Real Rival Rouser!]]'' and [[DP188]]. After a fierce battle, Paul was finally defeated, and he and Ash parted on good terms, Ash having earned Paul's respect. It also seems Paul may have decided to change somewhat, as when Electivire is defeated, he thanks it for a job well done, something that, up until that point, Paul never did, even if his Pokémon won. Afterwards, Paul states that his next intention is to return to [[Snowpoint City]] and re-challenge Brandon. He briefly appears in [[DP189]], seeing Ash lose to Tobias.

==Personality and training==
Paul's only concern in his [[Pokémon]] is of their strength in {{pkmn|battle}}. He strongly dislikes weak Pokémon and has a habit of {{pkmn2|released|releasing}} them if they do not meet his high expectations. To this effect, Paul always checks new {{pkmn2|caught|captures}} with his [[Pokédex]] to learn what [[move]]s they know and {{pkmn|training|trains}} the Pokémon he keeps harshly to make them strong. He feels that [[Happiness|bonding]] with Pokémon would only turn them into slackers. He also has a habit of scolding his Pokémon for losing to opponents he feels they could have beaten, and this was a recurring trait when he owned {{AP|Chimchar}}. As a person, he is very callous and even at times brutal, especially in {{pkmn|battle}}; and as a result, he has been shown to have very little emotion other than an occasional rough smile.
[[File:Reggie and Paul.png|left|thumb|250px|Reggie and Paul]]
Sometimes, he gives some of his Pokémon to his brother, [[Reggie]], for temporary training and caretaking, as revealed in ''[[DP066|Lost Leader Strategy!]]''. Paul also disagrees with his brother for giving up on being a [[Pokémon Trainer]] after failing to get the [[Symbol|Brave Symbol]]. He feels his brother's approach and view on this to be wrong. Reggie cares about his brother, but has no illusions about Paul's character. He openly admits that Paul has always had a cruel streak.

Paul feels that Ash is a weak trainer and can easily bring on Ash's anger by stating it. Ash's very different attitude towards being friends with Pokémon also provides much fuel to their rivalry. Out of all the rivals that Ash has, Paul seems to be the most harsh towards him and his Pokémon. Despite that, Paul barely recognizes their rivalry and Ash as a trainer and ignores Ash's speeches about loving his Pokémon. Ash on the other hand has a hatred of Paul that flares up at Paul's indifference to his Pokémon. However Ash accepts that Paul is a strong trainer but considers himself on the same par as him. Paul's only hint of respect for Ash was in ''[[DP128|A Pyramiding Rage!]]'' when he was very surprised to hear that Ash had beaten Brandon in a Pokémon battle before.

Although Paul finds most of {{cat|Ash's Pokémon}} weak, he has shown a particular interest in his {{AP|Pikachu}}, as shown in ''A Gruff Act To Follow'', after Pikachu used Thundershock on Roark's Cranidos. Paul is also angered by how Ash contradicts himself by criticizing Paul's {{pkmn|training}} methods and then uses similar ones, such as entering the [[Wallace Cup]], despite Ash's motivations being clearly different than Paul's.

Paul appears to feel indifference to {{an|Dawn}}, showing that he didn't even know her name in ''[[DP016|A Gruff Act to Follow]]''. Paul shows mild respect as well as distaste towards {{an|Brock}}, probably because Brock supports Ash's view on Pokémon. Paul does show respect for his elders, such as [[Professor Rowan]], [[Cynthia]], [[Nurse Joy]] and {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}} .

==Pokémon==
As a result of Paul's selective [[Party|team]] creation, his active team is composed of Pokémon that he deems to be powerful. While the captures of Ursaring and Gliscor were shown in ''[[DP006|Different Strokes for Different Blokes]]'' and ''[[DP064|Riding the Winds of Change!]]'' respectively, the rest were obtained off-screen.

This listing is of Paul's Pokémon as of the most recent Japanese episode and the ones used for the [[DP186|last]] [[DP187|full]] [[DP188|battle]] against Ash:

===With Reggie===
In [[Veilstone City]], Reggie told Ash that Paul's "other Pokémon are here too" which may include his reserves. In ''[[DP051|Glory Blaze!]]'', Paul mentions that he wanted {{AP|Chimchar|Infernape}} to become the most powerful out of '''all''' his {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon. This could mean he has other {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon besides Magmortar.

It was also revealed in this episode that Paul caught {{p|Weavile}} while journeying through [[Hoenn]], [[Johto]] and [[Kanto]].

It was not seen again until ''[[DP064|Riding the Winds of Change!]]'' where Paul used it and {{TP|Paul|Electabuzz}} to capture {{TP|Paul|Gliscor}}, and again until ''[[DP100|Aiding the Enemy]]'', where it was seen training with {{TP|Paul|Torterra}}. It appeared again in ''[[DP131|Pedal to the Mettle!]]'', where it was one of the battlers in {{Ash}} and Paul's [[full battle]]. It lost to [[Ash's Staraptor]], despite the type-advantage.

It appeared again in [[DP188]] at Reggie's house, along with Paul's Torterra, Ursaring and Honchkrow, they were all unhappy to find out Paul had lost.

After losing to [[Cynthia]]'s {{TP|Cynthia|Garchomp}} in ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training]]'', Paul realized that Chimchar was not fulfilling his expectations. This culminated in the tag battle tournament arc where he was forced to battle alongside Ash. During a battle against a Zangoose and a {{p|Metagross}}, Chimchar was too scared to make any attack when caught in Zangoose's claws. After the battle, Paul released Chimchar in front of Ash, who then invited it to join him.}}

==Trivia==
[[File:Early DP series art.png|Early artwork|thumb|right]]
*Paul was first revealed to the fandom through a [[CoroCoro]] scan that showed him alongside Ash and Dawn commanding a {{AP|Chimchar}}. However, his name and role was not revealed until the following week and so he received the fan name "Nugai" during that time.
[[Image:GameFreak Silver.png|thumb|Sketch of Silver]]
*Paul seems to have been heavily based on the game rival {{ga|Silver}}.
**Regarding personality, they both are rather cold towards not only the people around them, but also to their Pokémon. Both have been reprimanded by the {{pkmn|Champion}} in their respective regions ([[Lance]] and [[Cynthia]]) for it, after challenging them and being quickly defeated.
**Paul has similar taste in Pokémon to the {{adv|Silver}} portrayed in Pokémon Adventures. Both have an {{p|Ursaring}}, a {{p|Honchkrow}} and a {{p|Weavile}}. Furthermore, when Silver had a cameo in the original Japanese opening of ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'', he was seen with a Nidoking, another Pokémon that Paul has.
**Another interesting similarity is that the pose used in Paul's stock art is the same as the pose in a picture of Silver drawn by [[Ken Sugimori]], right down to the angle and position of the hands and feet. Also, concept art of Paul has shown an early design where he had heavy pants and boots similar to Silver's.
*Some of Paul's Pokémon are based off Pokémon owned by other rivals of Ash and his friends. There are also some traits he shares with Ash's main rival, {{Gary}}:
**[[Paul's Torterra]] is similar to [[Gary's Blastoise]], as in that they are turtle-based [[starter Pokémon]].
**Both trainers own an {{p|Electivire}}.
**Gary's {{p|Magmar}} is in the same evolution family as [[Paul's Magmortar]].
**Both trainers own a {{p|Nidoking}}.
**Paul often acts rudely to Ash, much like {{Gary}} did until the end of the Johto saga.
*Three of {{Ash}}'s Pokémon have evolved while battling against Paul: Turtwig into {{AP|Grotle}}, Staravia into {{AP|Staraptor}}, and Chimchar into Monferno.
**In addition, Monferno evolved again into {{AP|Infernape}} in Paul's presence. Interestingly, Chimchar was originally Paul's but was released.
**Turtwig and Staravia both evolved while battling [[Paul's Honchkrow]].
*Paul is the first regular rival seen capturing a Pokémon on screen.
*Paul has been known to have conflicting views on his own training strategies. In one battle he claims the Trainer is at fault for all losses, yet whenever one of Paul's Pokémon has lost, Paul blames them.
*Paul has been defeated onscreen three times, and each time three of his Pokémon debuted. (Torterra, Weavile, and Murkrow for Cynthia; Nidoking, Lairon, and Hariyama for Brandon; and Froslass, Drapion, and Gastrodon for Ash.)
**Each of these battles were Full battles.
*Paul shares his Japanese name with that of [[Lake Verity]].
*Paul has used a Pokémon of every [[Elemental type]] except for the {{type2|Psychic}} and the {{type2|Dragon}}.
*He shares both his Japanese voice actors and his Brazilian Portuguese voice actor with [[Hank]].

Sketch: moved Talk:Meguroco (Pokémon) to Talk:Sandile (Pokémon): English name

{{forums notice|March 31, 2011}}
==Ability==
Meguroko's ability is actually called Earthquake Spiral. Every time Meguroko defeats a foe it gets more and more powerful. {{unsigned|gendrgar000}}
:I think Overconfident is just a different translation or Earthquake Spiral. If you get more confident, don't you feel like you could do better? Also, please remember to sign your comments with <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>. [[User:Turtwig A|Turtwig's]] [[Turtwig (Pokémon)|A-B-Cs]] ([[User talk:Turtwig A|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Turtwig A|contribs]]) 15:26, 27 June 2010 (UTC)
earthquake spiral doesn't even make any sense.... ([[User:Ataro|Ataro]] 15:30, 27 June 2010 (UTC))
yeah "Earthquake Spiral' sounds like an attack. how can people actually say that it's not overconfidence?[[User:Vkickass|Vkickass]] 00:01, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

==Physiology for the admins to implement==
Meguroko is a primarily tan-colored, quadruped crocodilian Pokémon, having a long snout as typical of crocodilians, and a thick black stripe on the bridge. Meguroko’s eyes are round and sepia-colored, with a circular pattern of black around them stretching between each eye, giving the impression of an archetypical robber’s mask or a pair of glasses, with the ridges surrounding the eyes being large and protruding. Two thick black stripes are present down Meguroko’s back, stretching to its pink-colored underside and encompassing its tan-colored limbs, which sport three claws each that are also black; additionally, its tapered tail is tipped with the color. [[User:Steph|Steph]] 15:45, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

== Origin ==

I'd like to point out {{wp|Spectacled Caiman|this species}} as a partial design influence, particularly the "eyeglasses". Also, the word for spectacles (''megane'') is a more likely name origin than "eye".--[[User:Kaoz|Kaoz]] 01:27, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

Taking into account the glasses design and the word "megane" the name is most likely a pun off of "meganekko" or glasses girls. 目黒子 (''meguroko'': Black-eyed child) with 目 (''me'') meaning eyes, 黒 (''kuro'') meaning black, and 子 (''ko'') meaning child.--[[User:Psychogurl|Psychogurl]] 00:12, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

Maybe it'd be relevant in the trivia to mention that as of now (barring any evolution with a similar typing, of course), Meguroko would be the only dark/ground poke'mon?--[[User:The Great Ratsby|The Great Ratsby]] 02:42, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

The only known Dark/Ground Pokémon. But keep in mind that Black and White might introduce other Dark/Ground Pokémon. I think we should probably leave it out since if it turns out there are more we'd have wasted time. [[User:Absolution|Absolution]] 09:27, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

I'd like to note that Meguroko was the first Pokémon with a unique typing revealed in G5. If it is unique, that is. --[[User:Element03|Element03]] 00:55, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
:That's incorrect, though. {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}} have unique type combinations too, and I believe they were revealed earlier. --[[User:Zesty Cactus|'''Zesty''']][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|'''Cactus''']] 01:24, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
::Oh right, I forgot about them. My mistake. --[[User:Element03|Element03]] 05:58, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
:::Well, Reshiram and Zekrom themselves were revealed earlier, but their typing was not, so Meguroko was the first Gen V Pokémon known to have a unique typing (assuming that all these guys have unique typings that it). [[User:Jas61292|Jas61292]] 03:56, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

'''Sandile''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''メグロコ''' ''Meguroco'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ground|Dark}} Pokémon introduced in [[Generation V]].

It evolves into {{p|Waruvile}} starting at level 29, which then evolves into {{p|Waruvial}} starting at level 40.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Meguroco is a primarily tan-colored, quadruped crocodilian Pokémon, having a long snout as typical of crocodilians, and a thick black stripe on the bridge. Meguroco's eyes are round and sepia-colored, with a circular pattern of black around them stretching between each eye, giving the impression of an archetypal robber’s mask or a pair of glasses, with the ridges surrounding the eyes being large and protruding. Two thick black stripes are present down Meguroco's back, stretching to its pink-colored underside and encompassing its tan-colored limbs, which sport three claws each that are also black; additionally, its tapered tail is tipped with the color.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon have the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Sandile and its {{p|Waruvial|evolutionary}} {{p|Waruvile|relatives}}.

===Origin===
Sandile seems to be based on a {{wp|crocodile}}. It has traits from both the {{wp|slender-snouted crocodile}} and the {{wp|spectacled caiman}}. Its striped design is similar to a stereotypical burglar.

====Name origin====
Sandile is a combination of sand (referencing its {{type2|Ground}}), and croco''dile''.
''Meguroco'' may be a combination of 目黒 ''meguro'', black-eyed, and ''croco''dile.

==Name==
Bulbanews says it's Chiramii, with one 'a'.--[[User:Pokelova|''Poké'']][[User talk:Pokelova|lova!]] 12:20, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
==Physiology for the admins to implement==
Chiramii is a furry, white-colored rodent-like Pokémon, sporting scruffs of fur on its head, ear insides, and neck. Chiramii’s large ears, located to the sides of its head, have red insides partly covered by the aforementioned tufts of fur there. Its eyes are large and brown, with a small, dot-like nose. Its limbs are somewhat rounded and small, and its tail is long and particularly furry. (I hope that this description is phrased well, I felt that it was more repetitive than the others....) [[User:Steph|Steph]] 16:06, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
:Done, thanks for writing these. --[[User:Zesty Cactus|'''Zesty''']][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|'''Cactus''']] 20:59, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
::I think the description should include that it is actually a light grey, and only has white on the tips of its ears and tail... [[User:Mudkipchan|Mudkipchan]] 19:21, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

== National Dex Number ==

Since Chiramii is number 78 in the isshu dex, that means it's number 571 in the national dex. You guys (the admins) think you could add that to the stuff n such? -[[User:Carrottime]]
:It doesn't always work like that. The Isshu dex may have Pokémon that are already known, like how Magikarp and Gyarados are found in the Sinnoh dex. Since they're already in the National dex, the Sinnoh dex doesn't match up exactly with the National dex. The same probably goes for Isshu, so we'll just have to wait until we know exactly what it is. '''~ [[User:Sol|sol]][[User talk:Sol|ar]][[Special:Contributions/Sol|is]]''' 19:10, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
::This is old, but since it's confirmed that there are only Isshu Pokémon in the Pokédex, and because Minezumi was assumed to be 504 because its Dex number is 10, shouldn't this be assumed as 571?

==Romanization==
Shouldn't we use a better romanized name, like we did back in [[Generation IV]]? It can be replaced when the trademarked romaji comes out. Since we all know its name comes from ''chinchilla'', it would be more correct to use Chillamii, Chillami, Chillamie or Chillamy. - [[User:D-Wheel|D-Wheel]] 06:08, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
:We're not supposed to until trademarked Romaji comes out. But there is no reason for this page to be at an incorrect Hepburn Romanization.—[[User:Urutapu|Ｌｏｖｅはドコ？]] ([[User talk:Urutapu|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Urutapu|contribs]]) 18:28, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

チラ見(chirami) is a lovely gesture that the child does. [[User:Sawamular101|Sawamular101]] 15:18, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

== Questionable Grammer ==
May I please do something about some of the grammer in the physiology descriptions of some of the pokémon. "Ear insides" come on guys, it should be "the inside of its ears". In the futur I would hope to see beter grammer, as it makes the articles sound more professional.[[User:EpicShadow|EpicShadow]] 10:30, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
:I think you should also improve your grammar as well. But I somewhat agree... [[User:Mudkipchan|Mudkipchan]] 04:19, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
:: Sorry but my gramer gets sloppy if I have no reason to correct it (this is not the actual article). Thanks for backing me up though. [[User:EpicShadow|EpicShadow]] 11:22, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
:::I think it best be left to an admin.--[[User:Pokelova|''Poké'']][[User talk:Pokelova|lova!]] 04:24, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
::::Given that the grammar is questionable, {{tt|as opposed to bad|i.e. it's not perfect, but it is easily understandable}}, we have bigger things to worry about at the moment.

==Evolution==
Okay I know we don't have any info on the evolutions of Chiramii but couldn't we say something like "It Is Unknown Wether This Pokemon Can Evolve Or Not" not something like giving it only one stage and saying its "Unevolved". The first time I saw it I was like "WHAAATTTTTT???!!!!!!" It could cause confusion to other people who don't know and Pokemon besides freakin' Pikachu. And remeber peoples, CHIRAMII IS SPELLED WITH ONE A, NOT TWO, ONE. ONE A. NOT TWO, ONE. ONNNNNEEEEEEE. [[User:Sorou|NEOgreenSOROU]] 12:19, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
:Well, that template is there to show that is has no confirmed evolutions or pre-evolutions. I don't really like having it there, but I do see why it should be there. I don't know why it would be so confusing to people who don't know Pokémon besides Pikachu. Finally, it is not spelled anywhere on the article with two 'A's, so I don't see why you are making a point of this. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 12:43, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
::I'm just saying if a person stumbled upon this site somehow and saw that at first glance that Chiramii was not evolved because of our limited info they might think that Chiramii was a one-evolution pokemon he/she might go out and tell his/her friends and bam you've got a group of people with the wrong info. The way that its presented it just confusing, that's all. So I was wondering if we could make it ''less'' confusing. And also if you type in "Chiraamii" or "Chiramii" in the search bar it leads to the same page, there's a similar problem with "Zoroa"/"Zorua". However for that case we have an evolution so I think it should be "Zoroa" to go along with "Zoroa"rk(Zoroark). I know that this will all be fixed when the english comes out but for now I'm just trying to make everything less confusing. [[User:Sorou|NEOgreenSOROU]] 13:00, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

::::Exactally just do that, but even then its the wrong spelling and is giving you something else. But still, what else can a person mean if they type in "Chiraamii"? XD [[User:Sorou|NEOgreenSOROU]] 15:08, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
:::::If someone searches for "Chiraamii", they will be redirected to "Chiramii". This is so that someone who has romanised the name differently can still locate the page with the correct spelling.
:::::As for the presentation of the information, I don't believe it's misleading. We just don't know, so it's better to show it as a singular, unevolved Pokémon until we know otherwise. {{p|Munna}}'s page said "unevolved" before we knew it evolved into {{p|Musharna}} because... we didn't know. I know that pages such as {{p|Tauros}} have the line "It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon", though I think with the pages for new Pokémon nobody's bothered because new information is revealed every 5 minutes. --[[User:Zesty Cactus|'''Zesty''']][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|'''Cactus''']] 15:53, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
:::::Also, think back to [[Generation II]]. When {{p|Togepi}} was revealed, did people assume it was an evolved Pokémon or that it would evolve?

== Sweep Binta ==
[http://www.filb.de/1353 Filb.de] has video of Chiramii using a move called スイープビンタ　''Sweep Binta'' on Munna. ''Binta'' translates as "slap in the face". So my guess is this will likely be translated as "Sweep Slap", and it appears to be a multi-hit move.--[[User:Phantomjunkie|Phantom]][[User talk:Phantomjunkie|Junkie]] 08:20, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

== Chillarmy ==
From Serebii

<blockquote>The Japanese Trademark database has been updated with a few new trademarks for the Japanese names of the Pokémon. As always, most recently seen with Victini this weekend, the Pokémon get their Japanese names as well as an official romanisation, being the Japanese name stated in English. Usually, we just include the literal translation of the names until we get the romanisation. Well, today we have received the official romanisation for the Pokémon Chiramii (チラーミィ). It's official romanisation is Chillarmy, derived from Chinchilla and army.</blockquote>

== Army ==

It's just as based on "army" as Himanuts is based on "nuts", Dirteng is based on "dirt" and Dogohmb is based on... nevermind. Don't trust trademarked Romaji. It's just a pile of stupid Engrish. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 20:22, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

:This, sorta. I honestly doubt it is a combination of chinchilla and army. I mean, how exactly does army come into place? According to its translated Pokédex entry, it has nothing in common with troops or anything. I seriously doubt it's 'army'. I think it's possibly a corruption or a shorter form of a different word. And for the record, how do we pronounce its name again? [[User:Rai Marshall|Rai Marshall]] 20:25, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
::CHEE RA MEE. Dirteng's definitely a combination of dirt and tengu, though. Its feet and nose indicate that much. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 20:29, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
:::Not so much, it's way more likely based on "dark" than "dirt". And also, that -u from "tengu" is gone for no reason, which also obscures the meaning. So still, it doesn't change my point at all. Trademarked Romaji aren't really the "correct" Romaji. They're just used on merch, that's all. They are often made of Engrish and fail to convey the intended meaning (like "Prasle" for Plusle). I don't really see how would Chillarmy be related to army. It doesn't wear a uniform or anything. -army is just an Anglicized phonetic spelling of -aamyi, which probably has some Japanese etymology (or is just some kind of sound effect). "Army" doesn't make any kind of sense. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 20:45, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
::::I took it to come from the faux word "Charmy" or something. Or just "Charm" with a -y. Makes sense when you consider it has Cute Charm. [[User:M190049|'''''~m190049''''']][[User talk:M190049|'''''~talk''''']] 22:38, 27 July 2010 (UTC)

:::::::::Why can't we put something like "The name is likely based on chinchilla and charmy. It is also possible that it is derived from army", or something like that.

I don't mean to interrupt, but it shows '(Japanese: チラーミィ Chillarmy) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V.' which states Chillarmy's Japanese name is the latter, when it is actually: Chiramii is the Japanese Name, whereas Chillarmy is the Romanization, a.k.a English name. -Naruruler12
:Please sign your talk page comments with four tildes, <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>. Also, Chillarmy doesn't yet have an official English name; that is the trademarked romanization that has been trademarked by Game Freak in the Japanese Patent Office. Basically, it's Gamefreak telling us how the Japanese name is ''meant to be'' pronounced, rather than how the katakana would literally be pronounced. Every Pokémon in Generations I through IV is the same way. You can see all of the trademarked romanizations on the [[List of Japanese Pokémon names]]. --[[User:Phantomjunkie|Phantom]][[User talk:Phantomjunkie|Junkie]] 14:36, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

== Gender Ratio ==
I have a question about Chillarmy's and its evo's gender ratio as to whether it is actually 75% female and 25% male. Has this actually been proven to be true as it seemed that they were a 50-50% ratio when I was playing white (numerous males appeared). I also feel to bring this up as it seems that Chillarmy and its evo doesn't look that feminine as much as well in my opinion. Therefore, I was just wondering if it is actually confirmed that this is the ratio? -Cadet Furret 21:48, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''クイタラン''' ''Kuitaran'') is a {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon introduced in [[Generation V]].

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

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Kuitaran is a bipedal, anteater-like Pokémon. It has a beige face while the rest of its fur is red with yellow stripes. On its lower abdomen, back, and underside are raised, beige colored bands, leading to its tail. Its claws, on both its feet and hands, are a dull yellow and on its wrists are raised, dented bands; both the wrists and feet are beige-colored. Its tail is dented upward and has a hole in it, similar in appearance to a {{wp|muffler}}. It also seems to serve the same purpose as a muffler, being able to expel gases.

====Gender differences====

===Special abilities===
Kuitaran can burn Aianto's shells to eat them with its high-temperature tongue.
===Behavior===

===Habitat===

===Diet===

}}

==Trivia==
* Kuitaran and {{p|Aianto}} appear to be rivals.
** Unlike most Pokémon rivalries, Aianto is at a severe disadvantage against Kuitaran since it has a 4× weakness to Kuitaran's type. However, this was probably done to reflect that Anteaters have dominance over, and eat, ants.
* Kuitaran, along with {{p|Torkoal}}, are only non-legendary {{type2|Fire}} that have no evolutionary relatives.
** Coincidentally, both of them have {{a|White Smoke}} as one of their abilities.

===Origin===
Kuitaran seems to be based on an {{wp|anteater}}, featuring {{wp|flamethrower}} components. The metal collars on each hand are similar in appearance to a {{wp|gun barrel}} and its tail is similar to a car's {{wp|muffler}}.

====Name origin====
Its name seems to be a combination of the クイ ''kui'' "eater" of アリクイ ''arikui'' "anteater" and the word "anteater" with the elements reversed.

Embedded Tower

{{Infobox location

}}
The '''Embedded Tower''' (Japanese: '''うずもれのとう''' ''Hidden Tower'') is an area located on {{rt|47|Johto}} in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. It is unlocked when the player is in possession of the {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|Blue Orb}} in HeartGold or the {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|Red Orb}} in SoulSilver. It is where {{p|Groudon}} (SoulSilver), {{p|Kyogre}} (HeartGold), and {{p|Rayquaza}} rest. If a {{p|Kyogre}} and a {{p|Groudon}} which are caught at the Embedded Tower are both shown to Professor Oak, he will award the player with the {{DL|List of key items in Generation IV|Jade Orb}} to awaken {{p|Rayquaza}}. {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}} from any other location (i.e. from the [[Generation III]]-games) will not count towards getting the Jade Orb.

The appearance of the interior changes depending on which of the trio occupies it at the time. If Kyogre is in the room, the markings on the floor will be red and depict the pattern on Kyogre's fins. If Groudon is there, then the markings will be blue and show Groudon's arm patterns. If Rayquaza is occupying the Embedded Tower, then the markings will be green and represent those on Rayquaza's body.

A long time before the events of HeartGold and SoulSilver, the Embedded Tower was a enormously tall tower built by people who came from the [[Hoenn]] region. Its peak was said to touch the sky. However, as seen in the games, part of it was embedded into the cliffs of Route 47, and also ran deep underground into the ocean, in that way connecting the land, the sea, and the sky.

Talk:Skarmory (Pokémon)

2010-12-14T19:03:52Z

Sketch: /* Minor note about anime Pokedex */ Reply

Pardon my lack of in-game knowledge, but should skarmory's lighting weakness be less than 400? 70 Sp. defense could be considered mediorce but not as to 400, right?

140 (Def) divided by 70 (Sp.Def) is 2. So the effectiveness of all special moves are doubled, compared to normal moves. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 01:00, 23 November 2005 (CST)

:Yes, that's correct. If a {{T|Fighting}} move does 30 damage, a {{T|Electric}} move of the same strength (after figuring effects caused by the stats of the attacking Pokémon) is used on Skarmory, it would cause about 120 damage.[[User:User142|User142]] 01:40, 23 November 2005 (CST)

Maybe I'm just crazy, but Skarmory's tail looks a lot like a bottle opener, like this one http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Opened_Waiters.JPG. Does anyone agree with me and/or think this should be added to the physiology section? [[User:Zell65|Zell65]] 06:46, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

It kinda does. Not enough to be put in the Physiology section though. {{unsigned|Asujoll}}

I agree, and I think this should be at least noted somewhere. -Sabre_Justice

anyone notice that his head looks like a shark fin?[[User:Ultamatecharizard|Ultamatecharizard]] 17:31, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

== Fanlist link ==

Geocities is permanently down, so that "Skarmory fanlist" link is completely useless. I'd remove it myself if the page weren't in lockdown mode. --[[User:HeroicJay|HeroicJay]] 23:07, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

Removed. --[[User:Hiroshiyo|Hiroshiyo]] 14:59, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

== Name Origin ==
Skarmory's name comes from Sky and Armory, as many agree, but Skarmory is possibly based on the word "Scar" as well, people. Skar is basically the same word when said, and if it was named Skymory then it would still have the same meaning as currently stated, so the difference of Skarmory must have the addition of "Scar".

My point being that it's name origin should mention scar as a possibility.

== Tail Changes ==

Is Skarmory's tail losing one of the blades between Gold and Silver and later games important enough to be added? ----[[User:Valkyria|Valkyria]] ''([[User talk:Valkyria|Talk]])'' 20:50, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

== Minor note about anime Pokedex ==

The anime Pokedex entry in the article uses the word "priors" which doesn't make sense. I'd edit it myself, but I don't watch the show, so I'll simply suggest that the correct word is probably "briers" and leave it to someone who actually heard the entry on the show to make the correction, if applicable. --[[User:The Almighty Doer of Stuff|The Almighty Doer of Stuff]] 18:58, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

'''Ruby''' (Japanese: '''ルビー''' ''Ruby'') is the eighth main character of the manga series [[Pokémon Adventures]]. As a counterpart to {{adv|Sapphire}}, Ruby has a great passion for [[Pokémon Contest]]s. While he's an excellent battler, he only fights when necessary or when no one takes notice. He believes that Pokémon battles are barbaric, and get his Pokémon dirty—something that he hates.

His first Pokémon were {{p|Skitty}}, {{p|Poochyena}}, and {{p|Ralts}}, all given by his father [[Norman]]; his "starter" Pokémon was a {{p|Mudkip}} which he received from [[Professor Birch]].

Ruby has admitted to having a [[FranticShipping|crush]] on his rival Sapphire.

==Personality==
Ruby's extremely good at sewing and knitting. He makes clothes for all his Pokémon to wear, and even made Sapphire the clothes she wears for much of her adventures. He is shortsighted and wears contacts to correct his eyes as he is too vain to wear glasses. His other hobby is photography. He has a photo album of all of his Pokémon's biggest moments - such as evolutions or contest victories. He's not shy about showing it off, either. He's always lying to Sapphire about not being powerful enough, but then, his secret is revealed when he tries to save Sapphire from the Grumpig stampede.

Ruby can be quite shallow at times, putting too much emphasis on outward appearances. He even once kicked Mimi out of his party for not being beautiful enough. Recently, however, Mimi returned to Ruby and, after being mocked by [[Archie]] for being weak and ugly, Ruby declared that Mimi had inner beauty and it evolved into a Milotic.

==Character history==
===Past===
[[Image:Young_ruby.png|thumb|right|Ruby when he was younger]]
Ruby was born in [[Goldenrod City]], Johto. His father was [[Norman]], who was an aspiring gym leader. He met Sapphire once, and the young Ruby and Sapphire had a lot of fun with each other, until their fun was interrupted by a {{p|Salamence}}. Acting quickly, Ruby was able to knock it out with his {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, but got his forehead split open in the process. It was his fault that his father failed the Gym Leader Test because the Salamence broke into Rayquaza's containment area and set it free. At that time, Rayquaza was being held by the Pokémon Association near the place he and Sapphire were playing. Sapphire ran away crying, and later came to realize she ruined Ruby's dignity, and vowed to become stronger. Ruby, on the other hand, realized he had been too brutal, and promised to suppress his strength in battle.

==={{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}}===
[[Image:Ruby_RSchapter.png|thumb|left|250px|Ruby in the Ruby and Sapphire chapter]]
On his eleventh birthday, Ruby and his mother moved to [[Littleroot Town]], [[Hoenn]]. Ruby was displeased with this decision as he preferred [[Johto]]'s modern cities over Hoenn's rural countryside. After getting to the small town, Ruby ran away as he didn't want to face his father, who didn't approve of Ruby's hobby of Pokémon Contests. Just as he left the town, he met [[Professor Birch]], who was attacked by two {{p|Mightyena}}. Ruby refused to battle, stating his reason was because he didn't want his Pokémon dirty. Instead, he asked the two dark types to join him on his quest to conquer the contests of Hoenn. However, they started to chase him. Ruby still didn't fear him and instead picked up Birch's nearby Pokédex and used it to learn about Mightyena.

Amazed by the fact that the Mightyena were evolved, he sent out his [[Nana]], a {{p|Poochyena}}, and showed off her elegant moves against the stronger Pokémon. However, the attacks did no damage and Ruby and Birch were forced to run from the wild Pokémon. Due to the [[Running Shoes]] that had been given to him by his parents for his birthday, Ruby got ahead of Birch and fell off a cliff and was knocked unconscious. Fortunately, a mysterious Pokémon caught him and brought him into its cave.

Ruby was soon awakened by the lick of Nana. Upon waking up, he received a call on Professor Birch's [[Poké Gear]] from the researcher himself. Ruby explained where he was and Birch introduced himself formally. During the conversation, Ruby realized that Birch was a friend of his father but the man didn't know that the boy had ran away yet.

The Pokémon the noticed that Ruby was awake and spoke to him. Shocked, Ruby backed up in fear and Nana attacked it. The Pokémon then revealed itself to be a human girl. She attacked Nana with her {{p|Torchic}}. In order to help the boy, Birch told him to take out the {{type2|Water}} Pokémon {{p|Mudkip}} out of his bag. Ruby was disappointed by the lack of coolness and beauty in the Pokémon, but stated that it could be in a tough contest. Ruby refused to battle, which angered the girl. It was at that point that Birch realized that it was his daughter Sapphire that Ruby was fighting. As Birch explained this to Ruby, the reception between the two was lost. Moments later, the two children were attacked by a {{p|Seviper}}.

Ruby still refused to fight, forcing Sapphire to defeat the Tail Snake Pokémon all by herself. After this the two got into an argument over their interests, which made Sapphire ask Ruby to take a bet. The two would go on a journey and see who would reach their goals in 80 days. Ruby agreed and then Sapphire fainted from the damage that she received from the battle with the Mightyena. Realizing the girl was hurt, Ruby helped her and left her some new clothes. Before he left, the Seviper awakened, but Ruby released a mysterious light from a Poké Ball and the Seviper fell to the floor.

After leaving the cave, Ruby came to a bridge, where he showed his new Mudkip how to perform in a contest. When he had the Water type try for itself, they were attacked by a {{p|Dustox}}. He and his [[party]] ran away and Ruby noticed that he had accidentally forgotten to give back Birch's Pokédex. The machine then scanned the [[Bug type]] and Ruby learned that it was incredibly powerful. However, Mudkip saved them with his {{m|Water Gun}} and Ruby nicknamed it [[Zuzu]]. He then set off yet again.

The next day, Ruby arrived in [[Petalburg City]]. He headed through the city carefully so that he wouldn't be found by his father. However, he came across a sickly boy named [[Wally]], who had been attacked by a {{p|Nuzleaf}} while trying to catch a Pokémon. After receiving a complement from the other boy, Ruby quickly offered to try and catch a Pokémon for him. However, Ruby learned that his dad was coming to help Wally do the task!

Upon seeing his father come, Ruby grabbed Wally and jumped into a nearby bush. Wally, however, came out and asked Norman if he would help him catch a Pokémon but the gym leader said that he wouldn't because Wally was too ill to journey with one. Although his father nearly caught him, Ruby was able to stay hidden, but when he came out of hiding he found Wally unconscious on the ground.

Ruby took the sick boy home and that night the two left home and Ruby promised to let Wally use his {{p|Ralts|Ruru}} in order to catch a Pokémon. The two found a {{p|Kecleon}}, which Wally was determined to catch. Although Wally failed to catch it many times, Ruby stuck by him and was given a [[PokéNav]] as thanks. After Wally caught Kecleon, the area they were in was struck by an earthquake and Ruby fell into the sea. Thankfully though, he was saved by [[Mr. Briney]], who took him to [[Dewford Island]].

After arriving on Dewford, he once again met up with Sapphire and went into the [[Granite Cave]] in order to find the powerful, yet beautiful Water type Pokémon {{p|Milotic}}. However, he instead found a bunch of {{p|Mawile}}. He, however, was saved by [[Steven Stone]]. During the battle with the Mawile, Ruby's Nana and [[Coco]] evolved. After the battle, Ruby left the Island by riding Sapphire's {{p|Wailord|Walo}}. One night, they stopped at the [[Abandoned Ship]] on {{rt|109|Hoenn}}. There, Ruby and Sapphire teamed up with a {{p|Plusle}} and a {{p|Minun}} to fight [[Team Magma]]. After this fight, the two trainers left the {{type2|Electric}}s behind.

Soon, Ruby was let off Walo at [[Slateport City]]. There, his Zuzu evolved into {{p|Marshtomp}}, which attracted the notice of the Hoenn [[Pokémon Fan Club Chairman]], who took Ruby to the Contest Hall, where they made Poké Blocks with [[Captain Stern]] before being taken away by Team Magma, who was targeting Stern. Ruby fought against Mack in the S.S. Kaien 1 in order to free the Chairman and Stern.

After winning, he drifted away from Slateport and landed on {{rt|118|Hoenn}}, where he caught a {{p|Feebas}} before being attacked by a {{p|Zangoose}} and a {{p|Seviper}}. Ruby and the Swimmer that he had befriended escaped into the [[Weather Institute]], where Ruby was found by Norman.

[[Image:Norman saving Ruby.png|thumb|right|Ruby being saved by Norman]]
The father and son had a showdown between the two, which resulted in Ruby falling off the Weather Institute but was saved by Norman, who gave Ruby permission to participate in contests. Overjoyed, Ruby headed off with [[Gabby & Ty|Maryann and Tyler]], a pair of interviewers who had witnessed the battle between Ruby and his father, to [[Verdanturf Town]]. There, he participated in, and won, all of the normal rank contests. After winning he spotted Wally in the crowd and chased after him, only to find out it was not Wally, but his cousin [[Wanda]].

Soon, Ruby, Tyler and Maryann heard of a riot caused by {{p|Whismur}}. They went to the [[Rusturf Tunnel]] to investigate and fought against Team Magma's [[Marge]]. After a long battle, Ruby and his two new comrades headed towards [[Fallarbor Town]].

Upon arriving in the small, Ruby immediately entered the Tough, Cool, Cute and Smart categories of the Super Rank contests. However, he was too late to enter the Beauty category and was forced to watch. During the Beauty category, he fell in love with [[Wallace]]'s performance and, afterward, asked the older man to be his master. Although Wallace originally refused, he changed his mind after witnessing Ruby battle. The two then headed for [[Fortree City]], where Wallace was to meeting with the other gym leaders.

After arriving in the city, Ruby meet up with Sapphire again and battled against a group of {{p|Grumpig}}, during witch Sapphire realized that Ruby wasn't as weak as he claimed to be. This lead to the biggest argument between the two and Sapphire telling Ruby that she never wanted to see him again.

Due to this argument, Ruby ran from Fortree and went to the flooded Slateport City and participating in all the Hyper Rank contests. He won all of them too, but lost to Wallace in the beauty category, which lead to Ruby telling {{Adv|Mimi}} that she was ugly after which Mimi ran away from Ruby, who cried himself unconscious.

[[Image:Ruby Vol 22.png|thumb|250px|left|Ruby in the last R/S chapter volume]]When he awoke, he was feeling bad about what he had done when he saw Sapphire on TV, along with her new {{p|Relicanth}}, which he recognized as the Pokémon that Mr. Briney said could {{m|dive}} deep into the sea. Realizing that he was the only one who knew this, Ruby left the first aid station and saved a blind boy's {{p|Magikarp}} that he had initially thought was Mimi. The boy then made Ruby realize that he should help out in the crisis that was happening in Hoenn and Ruby then sent a letter to Wallace stating that he would fight against the Ancient Pokémon.

Wallace drove Ruby in his air car to Sapphire's location. He then explained to everyone that Relicanth could take him and Sapphire to the [[Seafloor Cavern]]. They then dived under the sea together, their goal to defeat Maxie and Archie.

At the bottom of the sea, the young pair squared off against Maxie and Archie, gaining the edge by taking advantage of their selfish mindsets. However, the two leaders became fully taken over by the power of the orbs they held, and dragged their foes to [[Sootopolis City]], where the two titans were having their tremendous battle. Ruby and Sapphire, seeing the overwhelming power the two monsters held before them, lose all hope and tell their mentors to abscond. [[Winona]] and Wallace, however, managed to snap them out of it, and after the two young [[Pokédex Holder]]s reminisce of their forgotten past, are able to drive the Red and Blue orbs out of the insane leaders' bodies using the [[Meteorite]] that deactivated [[Mt. Chimney]] earlier.

In the ensuing explosion, the two were blown away, and soon were then taken to Mirage Island, where they, under the leadership of Wallace's master [[Juan]], trained and learned that they had absorbed the Blue and Red Orbs. After they complete their training and learn to control the orbs to their will, Sapphire receives the [[Mind Badge|Mind]] and [[Rain Badge]]s.

[[File:Rubynohat.png|thumb|right|Ruby, without his hat, revealing his scar]]
Just before leaving Mirage Island to embark on their final mission, Sapphire told a shocked Ruby that she liked him. Before Ruby could respond, they had to leave and he didn't get to tell that he felt the same way until they reached [[Sootopolis City]], where he pushed Sapphire away in order to protect her. Ruby then left with Marge in order to fight against Maxie, Archie, and the Ancient Pokémon {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}}.

After Marge's death, Ruby reunited with Mimi, who then evolved into a {{p|Milotic}}. Sapphire then came to the battle field and the two rivals charged up {{p|Plusle}} and {{p|Minun}} and finally defeated Archie and Maxie. Ruby then used Celebi to restore peace.

The next day was the eightieth day of the bet and Ruby had succeed in his goal of getting all of the ribbons in Hoenn. He then ran off into the sunset with Sapphire to Littleroot Town, where a party was awaiting them.

==={{chap|Emerald}}===
[[Image:Ruby E.PNG|thumb|left|250px|Ruby in the Emerald arc of the manga]]
Almost a year later, Ruby, along with {{Adv|Sapphire}}, was sent to the Battle Frontier by [[Professor Birch]] to help out the third [[Pokédex holder]] {{Adv|Emerald}} in his quest to save {{p|Jirachi}} from [[Guile Hideout]]. They first met up with the boy at the Battle Dome but it soon became clear that he resented them. So, in order to get to know Emerald, the two entered the Battle Dome tournament. Ruby fought Emerald in the semi-finals but lost. He did however help [[Emerald's Sceptile]] regain its memories of its past with [[Professor Birch]]. He and Sapphire were then kicked out of the Battle Dome by Emerald.

Outside, the two ran into [[Palace Maven Spenser]], who recognized Sapphire as a person who had held the {{DL|List of key items in Generation III|Blue Orb}}. Ruby found this odd and recorded this encounter with the power of the Memory Lighter that he had been given from Marge. After Guile Hideout captured Jirachi, Ruby and Sapphire teamed up with [[Noland]] and Emerald and challenged the Battle Tower as a four man team.

On the top floor, the team found [[Anabel]] brainwashed and under the control of Guile Hideout. With the use of {{p|Latios}} and {{p|Latias}} shared sight ability, Spenser informed the trio of Pokédex Holders that Guile had touched the Blue Orb, forcing Guile to reveal his true identity as [[Archie]]. After Archie summoned the Great Sea Beast to flood the Battle Frontier, Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald were joined by {{adv|Crystal}} and {{adv|Gold}}, who revealed that Ruby and Sapphire needed Jirachi to revive their senior Pokédex Holders {{adv|Red}}, {{adv|Blue}}, {{adv|Green}}, {{adv|Yellow}} and {{adv|Silver}}, who had all been petrified by a beam that was meant for {{p|Deoxys}} at the end of the {{chap|FireRed and LeafGreen}}.

After Emerald was able to awaken the older Pokédex Holders from their petrification, Ruby used Zuzu's newly learned {{m|Hydro Cannon}} attack to destroy the sea beast. After the battle was over, Ruby participated in a tournament between all ten Pokédex Holders, which he, at some point, lost.

==Backpack==
[[Image:Ruby Running Shoes.png|thumb|left|Ruby using his running shoes]]
Besides necessities, Ruby also has a "Makeup Box" and "Sewing Box" in his backpack, for his contest appearances. Ruby has a pair of [[Running Shoes]] made by the [[Devon Corporation]] which he received from his father for his eleventh birthday. They're extremely powerful and useful, and propel Ruby along the ground with bursts of compressed air.

Ruby's eyes are {{wp|Myopia|myopic}}, and he has a pair of glasses to correct this. He's usually too vain to wear them, though.

==Trivia==
* Ruby is the first main character whose starter Pokémon has a type advantage over that of his rival (his Mudkip vs {{adv|Sapphire}}'s {{p|Torchic}}). This is, of course, possibly due to both Ruby and Sapphire being based on in-game player characters, one of which ends up as the rival, depending on the player's choice of gender.
* Ruby's birthday is July 2nd.
** A ruby is the birthstone for those born in July.
** Ruby's birthday is one day after {{wp|Canada Day|Canada Day}}. The flag of Canada has the colors of red and white, the same as Ruby's outfit.
* Ruby's blood type is O.
* All of Ruby's Pokémon mirror his gender, with the exception of Zuzu, Plusle, and Celebi, the latter being a genderless species. The same goes for {{adv|Sapphire}} (with the exception of a genderless Pokémon), with only her [[Toro|starter]] and {{p|Minun|electric rodent}} the same gender as her.
* Ruby's only Pokémon that hasn't fully evolved is Ruru, with the others either being fully evolved or unable to evolve at all. It is also the only one that evolved in someone else's possession, instead during [[Wally]]'s training on the [[Sky Pillar]].
* All of Ruby's Pokémon have nicknames in which the first two letters are repeated.
* Ruby and {{adv|Gold}} are two of four Pokédex holders that share the same {{wp|astrological sign}}, they are both {{wp|Cancer (astrology)|Cancer}}. The only other two are {{adv|Green}} and {{adv|Emerald}} who are both {{wp|Gemini (astrology)|Gemini}}.

(Japanese: '''デント''' ''Dent'') is a {{ashfr|traveling partner}} of [[Ash Ketchum]]. He made his debut in [[BW005]].

==History==
[[File:Dent anime.png|thumb|230px|left|Dent during a Gym battle]]
Dent made his debut in [[BW005]] shopping in his hometown of [[Sanyou City]]. Seeing {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Iris|Kibago}}, he was intrigued, as Kibago itself is rare in Unova, and Pikachu does not appear at all in the region. He invited Iris and Ash to the [[Sanyou Gym]], a café run by himself and his brothers [[Pod]] and [[Corn]]. When there, Ash becomes impatient quickly, and demands to battle the [[Gym Leader]], prompting the trio to introduce themselves and lead Ash to the Gym's arena.

Ash battles Pod first, with Dent serving as judge, and then, winning, Ash faces Corn. Finally, Ash faces off against Dent himself. After a heated battle with Dent, which carries on to [[BW006]], Ash wins and gets the [[Tri Badge]]. Later on in the episode, Dent decided to join Ash on his journey. Much like [[Max]], who had a [[PokéNav]], and {{an|Brock}}, who had a [[Pokégear]], Dent had a [[Town Map]] for the group to use for their travels.

In [[BW007]], when he learned that Ash and Iris had been living on fruit picked from trees on their travels through Unova so far, proved himself, like {{an|Brock}}, to be a good cook as he made lunch for the group. In [[BW008]] he was shown to make [[Pokémon food]] similar to Brock's.

==Character==
Dent is a Pokémon Sommelier who can see the compatibility between a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and its {{pkmn|Trainer}}. He is said to have a lot of knowledge on Pokémon, a trait he shares with Ash's former companion, {{an|Brock}}. He, like his brothers, has a habit of speaking about Pokémon in relation to tea.

==Trivia==
[[File:Dent Current Party.png|thumb|240px|right|Dent's current party]]
* Dent, along with {{an|Iris}} was first revealed in silhouette in a preview for the {{series|Best Wishes}} that aired after [[DP183]] in Japan on July 1, 2010. The two were revealed in full exactly one month later during a trailer on [[Pokémon Sunday]].
*In the games, Dent can only be battled at the Sanyou Gym if the {{player}} chooses {{p|Oshawott}} as their [[starter Pokémon]]. Notably, Ash has obtained {{AP|Oshawott}} from {{prof|Araragi}} as his first out of the Unova starter Pokémon, and has used him in his Gym battle against Dent.
*Though many of Ash's friends have siblings, Dent is the only one to be part of a group of {{wp|fraternal}} {{wp|multiple birth|triplets}}.
*Dent's hair resembles growing grass, or small plants, much like how Corn and Pod have hairstyles based on what type they specialize in.

'''Dent's Ishizumai''' (Japanese: '''デントのイシズマイ''' ''Dent's Ishizumai'') is a [[Pokémon]] {{an|Dent}} {{pkmn2|caught}} in the [[Unova]] region.

==History==
[[File:Dent and Ishizumai.png|thumb|left|240px|Dent and Ishizumai]]
Ishizumai was first seen when {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|company}} were on their journey towards [[Shippou City]]. Ishizumai was busy making its house out of a rock, but three more Ishizumai appeared, attacked it and stole its rock, before escaping. Ishizumai tries to chase after them but fails. Ash and the others witness this, they try and help Ishizumai, but it is scared of the trio and attempts to run off. {{AP|Pikachu}} tries to assure it, but the Stone Hermit Pokémon attacks Pikachu with {{m|Slash}}. Pikachu dodges its attack and Ishizumai strikes a rock instead. A piece of the rock flies off and hits {{TP|Dent|Yanappu}} on the head. Ishizumai feels bad and apologizes to it. The gang try and help it but Ishizumai does not want any help and runs off.
[[File:Ishizumai no rock.png|thumb|right|240px|Ishizumai without its rock]]
It later returns to the group and Dent invites it to have dinner with them. During dinner, Yanappu collapses from a fever to which Ash suspects was caused by the rock that hit it earlier. Ishizumai becomes overwhelmed with guilt. It later watches over Yanappu as it sleeps and soon falls asleep right beside it. The next day, after Yanappu recovers, Ishizumai decides to search for its rock. With the help of the gang, it defeats the other three Ishizumai and gets its rock back. Later, after the group says their goodbyes and start to walk away, Ishizumai starts to follow them wanting to be a part of Dent's team. Dent agrees and captures it.

'''Torkoal''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''コータス''' ''Cotoise'') is a {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Torkoal are small, tortoise-like Pokémon with large black rock-like shells with "holes" that glow with a red warmth. Their skin is a reddish brown in color with gray-black bands on their legs and neck. They have long necks and their eyes seem permanently closed. They are usually depicted blowing out smoke from their nostrils and the tops of their backs.

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

====Special abilities====
Like many fire Pokémon, it has a place inside its body where it keeps its fire. This system is powered by burning coal. Torkoal are notably more physically defensive than most other {{t|fire}} types, which is further boosted by supportive moves like {{m|Yawn}}, {{m|Stealth Rock}}, {{m|Rapid Spin}}, and {{m|Will-O-Wisp}}.

===Behavior===
Torkoal are usually calm if left undisturbed. If angered, they belch black smoke from the burning coal inside their shells and flee.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Mountain.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Mountain Pokémon|Mountain Pokémon]]]]
Torkoal lives in mountains near volcanoes in search of coal.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

This Pokémon feeds mostly on coal for internal combustion. It fills hollow spaces on its shell with the coal and burns it to generate energy.

==In the anime==

==Trivia==
* Despite being based on a tortoise, it is unable to breed with other tortoise and turtle Pokémon like {{p|Blastoise}} or {{p|Torterra}}, since it belongs to a different [[egg group]].
* Torkoal, along with {{p|Kuitaran}}, are only non-legendary {{type2|Fire}} that have no evolutionary relatives.
** Coincidentally, both of them have White Smoke as one of their abilities.
* Torkoal has the highest Defense of all Fire-types.
**Although it has the lowest Speed of all fully evolved Fire-types, it is tied with {{p|Slugma}} and {{p|Hitomoshi}} for the lowest Speed of all Fire-types.
* Although it is said to belch black smoke, its artwork and sprites shows Torkoal blowing white smoke which would agree with its ability, {{a|White Smoke}}
** Black smoke can be seen in console games and to a lesser extent in Torkoal's use of the move {{m|SmokeScreen}}.
**In ''[[AG186|Overjoyed!]]'', Ash's Torkoal blows out black smoke after using body slam on [[Pyramid King Brandon|Brandon's]] {{TP|Brandon|Registeel}}.

===Origin===
Torkoal is essentially a {{wp|tortoise}} with a {{wp|furnace}} within its shell.

====Name origin====
Torkoal's name is a combination of ''tortoise'' or ''torch'' and ''{{wp|coal}}''.

''Cotoise'' appears to also be a combination of these words, albeit in a different order.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Qurtel
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Chartor - From ''charbon'' (coal) and ''tortue'' (tortoise).
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 코터스 ''Coteos''
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan)]]: 煤炭龜 ''Méi Tàn Gūi'' - Literally "Coal tortoise".

'''Dent's Ishizumai''' (Japanese: '''デントのイシズマイ''' ''Dent's Ishizumai'') is a [[Pokémon]] {{an|Dent}} {{pkmn2|caught}} in the [[Unova]] region.

==History==
Ishizumai was first seen when {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|company}} were on their journey towards [[Shippou City]]. Ishizumai is making its house, but three more Ishizumai appeared, attacking it and stealing its rock. Ash and the others witness this, and suggest to the Ishizumai to let them help him get its house back. With the help of the gang, it defeats the other three Ishizumai. But when saying their goodbyes, it ran after Dent, where he decided to capture it.

{{forums notice|March 31, 2011}}

== Artwork ==

Could someone please edit the artwork for this Pokémon, because it looks a little badly cropped, due to the yellow in the hand. [[User:Pawsrent|Pawsrent]] 23:03, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
:Be patient young one, these are directly cropped from the magazine scans, we're going to have to wait for better artwork. —♥ [[User:Jello|Jel]][[User Talk:Jello|lo]] 23:21, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

== Name ==

I'm not sure about the validity of the name origin, but if it is correct, why don't we cut out the middle-man and rename the article "Ronculus?" Wargle's article isn't "Warugaru." [[User:BulbaB|BulbaB]] 14:42, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

The name could also be romanized as "Rancluse", the cluse coming from the word recluse, which means someone who lives in seclusion or solitude, it could be a reference to the fact that the white body is inside the green....ectoplasm or energy or whatever it could possibly be. As you can see romanization's are never absolute. Because of this, its best to wait for official romanization's or just plain out wait for english names. --[[User:Yunophobia|Yunophobia]] 00:34, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

== Version Exclusive and height correction ==

According to the official Black and White website, Rankurusu will be exclusive to White version.
Also according to the site, Rankurusu is 1.0m, not 1.6m

== Name origin ==

The article says that its name comes from ''ran'' (disorder), but it could also be from ''ranma'' (chaos). --[[User:Shiny Noctowl|Shiny Noctowl]] 16:53, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

: It seems to me that Rankurusu's name is the word "rankless", as in, "without rank". Being the Amplification Pokémon (presumably amplifying other things), perhaps its own actual "rank" (strength, whatever) is unknown, hence the name. Alternatively, it could come from "rancorous", meaning "showing deep-seated resentment". These depend on the story behind Rankurusu, but they sound interesting enough to be true. ~ [[User:Serial Colour|Serial Colour]] 19:30, 15 July 2010 (UTC)
::I'm the one who put ''ran'', because that's the kanji used in ''ranma''. I looked at the meaning of both kanji and it's the ''ran'' in ''ranma'' that gives the word its meaning. --[[User:Phantomjunkie|Phantom]][[User talk:Phantomjunkie|junkie]] 22:35, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

== Sprite ==

I've taken the image from the updated site, edited it a bit, and shazam, we have (What I think is) a half-assed attempt at a sprite~

Hope it helps, and sorry if it's not in good enough quality :/{{unsigned|Omnis}}

==Origin==

Rankurusu appears to be based on a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tardigrade Tardigrade] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homunculus Homunculus]. --[[User:Green Kricketune|Green Kricketune]] 22:10, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
: Where on earth are you getting the connection to the Tardigrade from?? That seems like speculation to me, it doesn't seem to fit well at all with this Pokemon. --[[User:Oleandervine|Oleandervine]] 23:38, 27 July 2010 (UTC)
::I think Green Kricketune is right, it's based on a Homunculus. The reason it's called "Amplification" pokemon as far as I can see, is because a Homunuculus also refers to a model of a human body where certain sensory parts, such as Hands, Ears, Mouth etc. are made larger in proportion to how sensitive they are ([http://lacalmette.midiblogs.com/media/01/01/0aa7ad714f4c9d40ea13e5d484cdb348.jpg Image]) - they are in a sense "Amplified", though I can't help wonder if the translation may be a bit off without the Psychological context. Design wise, it explains why the small body inside is fairly small, yet the gooey body is large, the hands and ears bigger than the rest of the body. The design itself is probably based on the idea that there is a small human inside eggs and sperm, hence the plasma thing it's got going on. It's almost worth mentioning that an anime called "Ghost Hound" addressed this idea too, with people having Out Of Body Experiences, where they'd fall asleep and their homunculus would emerge to float around a little dream-world - the homunculus looked like blobby/gooey/plasma-y baby type thing, with little oddly coloured organs and spheres inside the body. That's very similar to the design of Rankurusu. From this, it also seems the more likely romanisation is going to be "Ranculus" or "Lanculus" [[User:N-Denizen|N-Denizen]] 13:54, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
I said that it was based on a Tardigrade for it's gelatinous structure, bear-like face in the homunculus, and it's abilities, {{a|Magic Guard}} and Dust-Proof, respectively, refer to it's adaptability and it's position as a polyextremophile. Also, thanks for the Support, N-Denizen! [[User:Green Kricketune|Green Kricketune]] 14:47, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
::The Tardigrade analogy is also a good one, I have to say. With the bear features, and its survival abilities, that also makes sense. A pokemon being inspired by a creature that can survive in a vacuum is very likely, too, it provides a direct analogy to its Magic Guard and Dust Proof abilities. When it curls up, it looks like Rankurusu's main body, as well. So I guess this is like...a fusion of sorts? That's pretty cool, does it explain the first part of its name, though? [[User:N-Denizen|N-Denizen]] 15:52, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
::Actually, if "Ranma" means "Chaos", then that could be it. Tardigrades can survive in chaotic conditions, but that's a wild guess [[User:N-Denizen|N-Denizen]] 16:00, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
Yeah, the first thing I thought when I saw it was "That looks like a water bear." It should definitely be mentioned alongside the whole homunuculus thing. --[[User:Corn|Corn]] 07:45, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
