'''References to Pokémon in popular culture''' are instances where television shows, music and video clips, or other non-Pokémon medium explicitly mention Pokémon (or to a specific Pokémon). These are distinct from parodies (which deliberately resemble or mock Pokémon, while not actually using any of the names or actual monsters associated with the franchise). Similarities and resemblances between character designs, especially for background characters, are not considered references.

Non-fiction shows mentioning the existence of Pokémon (such as listing them in a list of most popular toys, or discussing their popularity at a certain point in time, or having an interviewed person mention Pokémon), or news show discussing Pokémon-related news, are not considered reference in popular culture. Likewise, game shows questions about Pokémon are not considered references.

Simply using a Pokémon catchphrase, or having a Pokémon character briefly appear without explicitly mentioning it is considered a background reference, and listed separately.

Pikachu asks "Earl" to say the line or he'll get the gas with skunk spray, to which Squirtle asks the kids to "go read a book or something".

* ''{{wp|Death Battle}}'' has three battles featuring Pokémon:
** The first was [[Ash's Pikachu]] vs. {{wp|Blanka}}. Blanka was declared the winner due to his self-taught survival skills, electric resistance, and his greater strength and size compared to Pikachu giving him an edge over Pikachu's {{t|Electric}} typing and reliance on a Trainer.<ref>[http://www.screwattack.com/shows/originals/death-battle/death-battle-pikachu-vs-blanka Death Battle: Pikachu vs. Blanka]</ref>
** The second was a three-way free-for-all between a wild {{p|Venusaur}}, {{p|Charizard}} and {{p|Blastoise}}.

** The third was a battle between [[Red (game)|Red]] and {{p|Charizard}} against Tai and Agumon of ''{{wp|Digimon}}'' fame; the battle ended in Tai's favor, due to the superior bond between Tai and Agumon as opposed to Red and Charizard.<ref>[http://screwattack.roosterteeth.com/episode/death-battle-season-2-32 Death Battle: Pokémon vs. Digimon]</ref>

List of references to Pokémon in popular culture

Sludge: Oblivious is a game show. Deleting.

'''References to Pokémon in popular culture''' are instances where television shows, music and video clips, or other non-Pokémon medium explicitly mention Pokémon (or to a specific Pokémon). These are distinct from parodies (which deliberately resemble or mock Pokémon, while not actually using any of the names or actual monsters associated with the franchise). Similarities and resemblances between character designs, especially for background characters, are not considered references.

Non-fiction shows mentioning the existence of Pokémon (such as listing them in a list of most popular toys, or discussing their popularity at a certain point in time, or having an interviewed person mention Pokémon), or news show discussing Pokémon-related news, are not considered reference in popular culture. Likewise, game shows questions about Pokémon are not considered references.

Simply using a Pokémon catchphrase, or having a Pokémon character briefly appear without explicitly mentioning it is considered a background reference, and listed separately.

==References in television, radio and movie==

List of references to Pokémon in popular culture

2018-04-30T08:49:06Z

Sludge: The "That's so Wierd" reference was too vague and doesn't fit into any of the discussed criteria.

{{incomplete}}
{{PA}}
{{fan speculation}}
'''References to Pokémon in popular culture''' are instances where television shows, music and video clips, or other non-Pokémon medium explicitly mention Pokémon (or to a specific Pokémon). These are distinct from parodies (which deliberately resemble or mock Pokémon, while not actually using any of the names or actual monsters associated with teh franchise). Similarities and resemblances between character designs, especially for background characters, are not considered references.

Simply using a Pokémon catchphrase, or having a Pokémon character briefly appear without explicitly mentioning it is considered a background reference, and listed separately.

==References in fiction shows and movies==

Slow down on editing the <code>User:</code> namespace. There are only four userspace edits allowed per day, and you have gone over the limit. Editing your userpage too much will lead to it being locked again.

==Hi==
I noticed you have been editing the <code>User:</code> namespace a lot recently. You may not be aware of this, but Bulbapedia has a {{bp|Userspace policy}} that asks users to try and minimize the number of userspace edits they make in a short period of time. Heavy editing of these personal pages can put undue stress on the server, so please leave your page alone for now and go help out in the mainspace. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, after all, so please help us to complete it! If you edit the mainspace more often, you will be allowed to edit your userpage more often too. Thanks! ---- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|MAG]][[User:MAGNEDETH#Interesting Stuff|NE]][[User talk:MAGNEDETH|DETH]]''' 19:09, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

Sludge: Fixed Snarl from Physical to Special

----
{{ElementalTypes|dark}}
The '''Dark type''' (Japanese: '''あくタイプ''' ''Evil type'') is one of the seventeen [[elemental type]]s. Notable Trainers that specialize in Dark-type Pokémon are [[Karen]] of the [[Indigo Plateau|Johto]] [[Elite Four]], [[Sidney]] of the [[Hoenn]] Elite Four, and [[Grimsley]] of the [[Unova]] Elite Four. Notably, the Dark-type is the only type that has never had a [[Gym|Pokémon Gym]] specialize in it. Prior to Generation IV, where moves are designated [[Physical move|physical]] or [[Special move|special]] based on the move itself rather than its type, all Dark-type moves were special.

==Characteristics==
Dark-type Pokémon were added in [[Generation II]].

===Defense===
Dark-type Pokémon are notable for the fact that they don't have any strong stat trends other than Attack (which is in and of itself modified by a few powerful outliers and slightly ironic as Dark was a special type, not a physical type), but usually have relatively poor defenses, with the exception of {{p|Umbreon}}, {{p|Spiritomb}}, {{p|Drapion}}, {{p|Scrafty}}, {{p|Mandibuzz}} and {{p|Tyranitar}}. On the plus side, Dark-types have an immunity to {{type2|Psychic}} moves. Additionally, Pokémon that are both Dark-type and {{type2|Ghost}} have no weaknesses to any moves of any type (excluding {{type2|Fighting}} moves used under immunity-negating conditions such as {{DL|In-battle effect item|Ring Target}} or {{a|Scrappy}}), as the resistances of the Dark-type cover the weaknesses of Ghost, and vice-versa. Meanwhile, if a Pokémon with the types Psychic and Dark were to exist, then it would have no resistances while having a double weakness to Bug-type and an immunity to Psychic.

===Offense===
Dark-type moves, when combating Psychic-types, are especially useful due to their secondary effects; {{m|Crunch}} lowers Defense (an already low stat among Psychic-types), {{m|Bite}} causes {{Status|Flinch}}ing, {{m|Faint Attack}} never misses, {{m|Night Slash}} has a high {{DL|Damage modification|critical hit}} ratio while {{m|Pursuit}} hits Pokémon as they switch for double damage. Many Dark-type moves also involve stealing or deception, such as moves like {{m|Thief}}, which steals an opponent's held item, and {{m|Snatch}}, which steals the beneficial effects of an opponent's moves.

Even though the Dark type was considered a [[special move|special type]] prior to [[Generation IV]], the three Dark-type moves that are currently special ({{m|Dark Pulse}}, {{m|Snarl}} and {{m|Night Daze}}) were introduced after [[Generation III]], meaning that all Dark-type moves that were once special moves are now all [[Physical move]]s, which helps many dark types since most of them are physical attackers.

===Contest Properties===
When used in contests, Dark-type moves typically are of the [[Smart Contest|Smart]] category, but can also fall in any of the other four Contest categories.

==Pokémon==
As of Generation V, there are 39 Dark-type Pokémon or 6.01% of all Pokémon, making it tied with the {{t|Electric}} type as the twelfth most common elemental type.

==Trivia==
* Officially, this type's Brazilian Portuguese translation is "Noturno" (nocturnal), but at times it is named as "Sombrio" or "Trevas" (darkness) as well. However, ''Sombrio'' means Shadow, which is the name of a [[Shadow Pokémon|special variety of Pokémon]].
* Because of {{m|Bite}}'s change to Dark from the {{type|Normal}} in [[Generation II]], there has been at least one Dark-type move introduced in each generation. Despite this, there is not a Dark-type Pokémon from each generation; Dark is the only type not assigned to a Pokémon introduced in Generation I. This is the opposite situation to the other type introduced in Generation II, {{t|Steel}}.
* There has yet to be a [[Gym|Pokémon Gym]] that specializes in the Dark type. Despite this, there have been three [[Elite Four]] members who specialize in Dark-type Pokémon.
* Generation V introduced the most Dark-type Pokémon, introducing 16 of the 39.
* So far, only 9 Dark-type moves have been shown in the anime, the least of all elemental types.

==''Shinies''==
I encountered and caught a shiny Vulpix and Wingull, but released them 'cos I was around 10 at the time and didn't know what shinies were.
Muk and Gastrodon were from a friend.

I'd also like to mention that I've recently transferred my LeafGreen and Emerald teams to my Diamond, which is why they're separated into physical, special, and status moves. :)

It's amazing what grinding for wild held items can do :D
It only took me 15 minutes all together to find a Fearow holding a Sharp Beak and a Sandslash holding a Soft Sand, it was only a matter of using thief then running away. ;)

Sludge: /* Gen IV */

I'm known as [http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/member.php?u=24821| FangJoker] on Bulbagarden Forums :)

==''Shinies''==
I encountered and caught a shiny Vulpix and Wingull, but released them 'cos I was around 10 at the time and didn't know what shinies were.
Muk and Gastrodon. was from a friend.

== Teams ==
My gen III teams are from my recent playthroughs of Emerald and LeafGreen.

I'd also like to mention that I've recently transferred my LeafGreen and Emerald teams to my Diamond, which is why they're separated into physical, special, and status moves. :)

Linoone is actually quite good, despite being my slave.

Sludge: Undo revision 1461761 by Solidad-Drew (talk)

'''Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター''' ''Pocket Monsters''; '''ポケモン''' ''Pokémon'' for short) are {{numpkmn}} known species of creature that inhabit the [[Pokémon world]], however, it is implied that there are more [[Future generations of Pokémon|waiting to be discovered]]. Inherent to them are several fantastic powers not demonstrated by most real animals, such as manipulation of {{t|electric}}ity and {{t|fire}}. For the most part, Pokémon are shown to exist instead of animals in their world, although animals are still found there and mentioned in several places. While most Pokémon resemble animals and may behave like them, there are many that do not resemble animals at all; taking on other forms such as plants, inanimate objects, machines, human-like forms or other more enigmatic and exotic appearences. Pokémon inhabit an extremely diverse range of habitats, ranging from the deepest oceans to the highest mountains, even [[Extraterrestrial Pokémon|space]] and other [[dimensions]]. Pokémon take up various ways of living in those places. However, all can be befriended and made into potential allies.

Many Pokémon are known to [[evolution|evolve]] from or into other Pokémon, a process that typically makes them larger and stronger, and could be seen as the equivalent to "growing up". Pokémon typically know several [[move|techniques]] that they can use in {{pkmn|battle}} or elsewhere, either to defend themselves or their Trainer, or to perform a task. Most Pokémon are known [[cry|only to say their name]].

==In the games==
Pokémon have been, from the very beginning, spoken of as friends and partners to the [[humans]] of the Pokémon world, used to help with various tasks from constructing buildings to exploration. Many people in the Pokémon world take Pokémon with them on a {{Pkmn| journey}} to gather [[Badge]]s and compete in the various [[Pokémon League]]s as {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, using them in battles against Pokémon both owned by other Trainers and [[wild Pokémon|found in the wild]]. In [[Generation III]] the concept of [[Pokémon Contest]]s were introduced in which Trainers can compete with their Pokémon as an alternative to battling. This was replaced in [[Generation V]] by the [[Pokémon Musical]].

Across the five [[generation]]s of games, Pokémon are typically found in one of three manners: encountering them in [[tall grass]], going [[fishing]] for them, or [[In-game trade|trading]] with an [[NPC]]. These are often joined by several more ways in which to encounter Pokémon, such as {{m|surf}}ing on water, {{m|headbutt}}ing trees, or using the [[Poké Radar]].

===Construction===
In the games, Pokémon are no more than fragments of data, identifying certain characteristics inherent to them. As the games have progressed, more data is added to each Pokémon, typically to reference new features introduced in games of the new generation.

The methodology for construction of Pokémon data changes across generations. For the different constructions, see [[Pokémon data structure in Generation I]], [[Pokémon data structure in Generation II]], [[Pokémon data structure in Generation III]], [[Pokémon data structure in Generation IV]], and [[Pokémon data structure in Generation V]].

==In the anime==
In the anime, Pokémon are shown to be creatures with distinctively more human-like qualities than normal animals, with several even [[talking Pokémon|able to speak]]. Some Pokémon have the ability to speak the dubbing language instead of their own names, such as {{MTR}} of [[Team Rocket]]. They also seem to be able to understand [[human]] speak, while most humans can't understand their speak.

The anime takes a clear stance of right and wrong on the use of Pokémon: Trainers such as {{Ash}} are shown to treat their Pokémon with respect, as partners and friends, while evil organizations like [[Team Rocket]] are shown to use Pokémon as tools, keeping them in cages -- a stark contrast to Ash and his {{AP|Pikachu}}, who he keeps on his shoulder, rather than in a [[Poké Ball]], because of its own preference.

===History===
The anime has given a more in-depth history of human interaction with Pokémon than is given by the games: [[Poké Ball]]s, for example, have not existed forever, and are in reality an apparently recent development, with one owned by a young [[Professor Oak]] being shown to be vastly different than ones used in modern times.

Prior to the invention and mass-production of Poké Balls, people tended to use hollowed-out [[Apricorn]]s, native to the [[Johto]] region, to capture Pokémon, while even further back, Pokémon were not known as "Pokémon" at all, but as "magical creatures" (Japanese: 魔獣 ''majuu''). In these times, many Pokémon were apparently feared because of their powers, sometimes so great that the most powerful of these monsters [[legendary Pokémon|passed into legend]] and were often seen as {{wp|deity|deities}} in their own right.

'''Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター''' ''Pocket Monsters''; '''ポケモン''' ''Pokémon'' for short) are {{numpkmn}} known species of creature that inhabit the [[Pokémon world]], however, it is implied that there are more [[Future generations of Pokémon|waiting to be discovered]]. Inherent to them are several fantastic powers not demonstrated by most real animals, such as manipulation of {{t|electric}}ity and {{t|fire}}. For the most part, Pokémon are shown to exist instead of animals in their world, although animals are still found there and mentioned in several places. While most Pokémon resemble animals and may behave like them, there are many that do not resemble animals at all; taking on other forms such as plants, inanimate objects, machines, human-like forms or other more enigmatic and exotic appearences. Pokémon inhabit an extremely diverse range of habitats, ranging from the deepest oceans to the highest mountains, even [[Extraterrestrial Pokémon|space]] and other [[dimensions]]. Pokémon take up various ways of living in those places. However, all can be befriended and made into potential allies.

Many Pokémon are known to [[evolution|evolve]] from or into other Pokémon, a process that typically makes them larger and stronger, and could be seen as the equivalent to "growing up". Pokémon typically know several [[move|techniques]] that they can use in {{pkmn|battle}} or elsewhere, either to defend themselves or their Trainer, or to perform a task. Most Pokémon are known [[cry|only to say their name]].

==In the games==
Pokémon have been, from the very beginning, spoken of as friends and partners to the [[humans]] of the Pokémon world, used to help with various tasks from constructing buildings to exploration. Many people in the Pokémon world take Pokémon with them on a {{Pkmn| journey}} to gather [[Badge]]s and compete in the various [[Pokémon League]]s as {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, using them in battles against Pokémon both owned by other Trainers and [[wild Pokémon|found in the wild]]. In [[Generation III]] the concept of [[Pokémon Contest]]s were introduced in which Trainers can compete with their Pokémon as an alternative to battling. This was replaced in [[Generation V]] by the [[Pokémon Musical]].

Across the five [[generation]]s of games, Pokémon are typically found in one of four manners: encountering them in [[tall grass]], going [[fishing]] for them,goin in [[caves]] or [[In-game trade|trading]] with an [[NPC]]. These are often joined by several more ways in which to encounter Pokémon, such as {{m|surf}}ing on water, {{m|headbutt}}ing trees, or using the [[Poké Radar]].

===Construction===
In the games, Pokémon are no more than fragments of data, identifying certain characteristics inherent to them. As the games have progressed, more data is added to each Pokémon, typically to reference new features introduced in games of the new generation.

The methodology for construction of Pokémon data changes across generations. For the different constructions, see [[Pokémon data structure in Generation I]], [[Pokémon data structure in Generation II]], [[Pokémon data structure in Generation III]], [[Pokémon data structure in Generation IV]], and [[Pokémon data structure in Generation V]].

==In the anime==
In the anime, Pokémon are shown to be creatures with distinctively more human-like qualities than normal animals, with several even [[talking Pokémon|able to speak]]. Some Pokémon have the ability to speak the dubbing language instead of their own names, such as {{MTR}} of [[Team Rocket]]. They also seem to be able to understand [[human]] speak, while most humans can't understand their speak.

The anime takes a clear stance of right and wrong on the use of Pokémon: Trainers such as {{Ash}} are shown to treat their Pokémon with respect, as partners and friends, while evil organizations like [[Team Rocket]] are shown to use Pokémon as tools, keeping them in cages -- a stark contrast to Ash and his {{AP|Pikachu}}, who he keeps on his shoulder, rather than in a [[Poké Ball]], because of its own preference.

===History===
The anime has given a more in-depth history of human interaction with Pokémon than is given by the games: [[Poké Ball]]s, for example, have not existed forever, and are in reality an apparently recent development, with one owned by a young [[Professor Oak]] being shown to be vastly different than ones used in modern times.

Prior to the invention and mass-production of Poké Balls, people tended to use hollowed-out [[Apricorn]]s, native to the [[Johto]] region, to capture Pokémon, while even further back, Pokémon were not known as "Pokémon" at all, but as "magical creatures" (Japanese: 魔獣 ''majuu''). In these times, many Pokémon were apparently feared because of their powers, sometimes so great that the most powerful of these monsters [[legendary Pokémon|passed into legend]] and were often seen as {{wp|deity|deities}} in their own right.

'''Falkner''' (Japanese: '''ハヤト''' ''Hayato'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Violet City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Violet Gym]]. He hands out the {{badge|Zephyr}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat him. He specializes in {{type2|Flying}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

==In the games==
[[File:Gold Silver Falkner.png|140px|thumb|left|Headshot of Falkner from {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}]]
Falkner appears in {{game5|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, where he is the first Gym Leader players will encounter. A master of {{type2|Flying}} Pokémon, Falkner runs the [[Violet Gym]], which he inherited from his father; the Pokémon he uses in battle also formerly belonged to him. Falkner's father is reported to be traveling, but is never seen in the game (unlike [[Janine]]'s [[Koga|father]]).

Known as "The Elegant Master of Flying Pokémon", Falkner is adored as a cool and handsome trainer. He is, however, overshadowed by his absent father, who is said to have been cooler and even more handsome. Perhaps because of this, Falkner aspires to be the greatest bird master. Falkner uses, notably, the lowest leveled Pokémon found in any Gym in any region. His {{p|Pidgeotto}}, in fact, is at an {{DL|Level|Underleveled Pokémon|illegitimate level}}. Once defeated in battle, he will award winners with the {{badge|Zephyr}} and a Technical Machine: {{TM|31|Mud-Slap}} in [[Generation II]]; {{TM|51|Roost}} in [[Generation IV]]. In each generation, his Pokémon know the respective TM; Falkner uses this move as part of his battle strategy.

Like all Gym Leaders in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Falkner will venture out of his Gym occasionally. Once the player has obtained the {{badge|Soul}}, Falkner will journey every Monday to [[Celadon City]] so he can visit the [[Celadon Department Store|Department Store]]. He can be found talking with fellow Gym Leader [[Janine]], of [[Fuchsia City]], on the fourth floor, and will exchange [[Pokégear]] phone numbers with the player. Once this task has been completed, Falkner will travel to the [[Fighting Dojo]] in [[Saffron City]] every Saturday morning to accept a rematch with a stronger team of Pokémon. In addition, he may also participate in the [[Pokéathlon]]'s Supreme Cup in the Jump Course with his {{p|Pidgeot}}, {{p|Swellow}}, and {{p|Staraptor}}.

Falkner is also in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]]'s Johto [[Gym Leader Castle]]. Unlike other Gym Leaders in this game, all of his Pokémon are of his specialist type.

:''"Hey, this is Falkner. How are you doing? My dad told me something when I was a kid. He said 'Falkner, bird Pokémon don't just fly with their wings, they soar through the sky because that's what they want to do with all their heart.' That's just like my dad."''
:''"Hey, this is Falkner. How are you doing? You've chatted with Janine in Fuchsia City, haven't you? All she ever talks about is her dad, you know? Endlessly.

==In the anime==
[[File:Falkner anime.png|left|180px|thumb|Falkner in the anime]]

Falkner's only anime appearance was in the episode ''[[EP131|Fighting Flyer with Fire]]''.

When [[Ash's Pikachu]] was stolen by [[Team Rocket]], Falkner arrived and rescued it with the help of his {{TP|Falkner|Pidgeot}}. He flew around on a glider, yearning to be as close to Flying Pokémon as he possibly could be. He is usually seen with his {{p|Hoothoot}} on his shoulder.

Falkner has a self-righteous attitude when it comes to Pokémon training, which angered {{Ash}}. Falkner also expressed an intense dislike for the assumption many trainers make that Flying-type Pokémon will always lose to {{type2|Electric}}s, but proved to be slightly hypocritical as he criticized Ash's poor choice of using {{AP|Chikorita|Bayleef}} (a {{type2|Grass}} that is weak to Flying-types) in their match.

The [[Violet Gym]] itself is a very tall, spiral-shaped building. Falkner conducts his matches on the roof of the Gym, accompanied by many students who chant in unison during his battles.

Ash was able to win the {{badge|Zephyr}}, despite his {{AP|Charizard}}'s wing being severely injured during the match.

It was able to defeat a weakened {{TP|Ash|Pikachu}} with a single {{m|Whirlwind}} attack.

It was then put up against [[Ash's Charizard]] in the final round of the battle. With its impressive speed and power, Pidgeot was able to gain the upper hand and injure {{AP|Charizard}} making it unable to fly. But with {{Ash}}'s support and inspiration, {{AP|Charizard}} was able to fly again.

Unfortunately, things still looked bad as Pidgeot used {{m|Agility}} to keep dodging {{AP|Charizard}}'s attacks and attack from behind. {{Ash}} luckily had {{AP|Charizard}} turn back and use {{m|Fire Spin}} trapping Pidgeot. It then finished it off with {{m|Seismic Toss}} making {{Ash}} the victor.

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Falkner GSC Adventures.png|thumb|Falkner in the ''GSC'' chapter]]
Falkner is a part-time {{tc|Policeman|police officer}}, first seen in ''[[PS094|Elekid Incorporated]]'' in uniform. Falkner is the arresting officer at the scene after {{adv|Silver}} stole {{TP|Silver|Totodile|Feraligatr}} from [[Professor Elm]]'s laboratory, pinning the burnt yard on {{adv|Gold}}. Gold, however, cooperates with Falkner (under threat of interrogation and being arrested) when it is revealed he is the only one to have seen Silver's face, although Gold totally blows it on purpose so he could go after Silver himself. Falkner offers Gold and [[Joey]] a place to stay for the night at the police station in [[Cherrygrove City]], but Gold turns it down and runs off with Joey in tow.

Falkner properly introduces himself in ''[[PS099|Sunkern Treasure]]'' when they meet once again. He is revealed not yet to be the {{ci|Violet}} [[Gym Leader]], but is training his team in attempt to acquire the position his father (the previous Gym Leader) left behind mysteriously; this is Falkner's dream. {{p|Skarmory}}, a foe Falkner says he's encountered before, then attacks the duo, having been said to be terrorizing the area and is currently attacking herds of {{p|Sunkern}}. Falkner sends {{p|Noctowl}} and {{p|Pidgeotto}} to attack it, but notes they aren't delivering much damage. Gold helps Falkner by sending out his freshly caught {{p|Sunkern|Sunbo}} to bounce [[Exbo]] into range of the Skarmory, dealing a heavy blow using {{m|Ember}}. Falkner then catches it, adding it to his team, and invites Gold to train with him. Gold declines the offer, as he has Silver to catch, but they makes plans to meet later once their objectives are met. In this chapter, {{adv|Bill}} is also on his way to find Falkner, to tell him a date for his Gym Leader qualification exam has been set.
[[File:Falkner HGSS Adventures.png|thumb|130px|left|Falkner in the ninth chapter]]
In ''[[PS104|The Ariados up There]]'', it is revealed Falkner passed the [[Gym Leader]] exam.

During ''[[PS137|Really Raikou & Entirely Entei I]]'' and ''[[PS138|II]]'', Falkner is out training Skarmory and Noctowl when he comes across a {{tc|Bird Keeper}} poaching. A rainstorm suddenly begins, caused by {{p|Raikou}}'s presence. {{p|Entei}} is also there, and Falkner is forced to save the Bird Keeper from being attacked by the duo, escaping on Skarmory. As they {{m|fly}}, the pair of Beasts give chase, and Falkner considers {{p|Suicune}}'s recent activity challenging Gym Leaders, and deduces the other two are doing the same. He issues a challenge to them, using Skarmory. Raikou and Entei attack two-on-one, pinning them between {{t|fire}} and {{t|Electric|electricity}}. Once they attack at the same time, however, Skarmory uses {{m|Agility}} to dodge as {{m|Spark}} and {{m|Fire Blast}} collide and cancels each other out. Falkner attempts capturing both, but Suicune appears to prevent the Poké Balls from operating with {{m|BubbleBeam}}.

The Bird Keeper suggests escaping, but Falkner isn't interested, instead turning to attack Suicune, who shatters Skarmory's wing. In one last attempt, Falkner tries to capture Suicune, but Raikou and Entei return the previous favor by destroying the Poké Balls. Skarmory begins to plummet to earth. However, Suicune saves the three of them, before the Beast trio flee. With their escape, Falkner laments on how he wouldn't have defeated Raikou and Entei even without Suicune's interference, and formally arrests the Bird Keeper under suspicion of poaching.

Falkner, along with his fellow Gym Leaders from Kanto and Johto, travels to the [[Indigo Plateau]] to take part in a tournament being held there. In the fight match ups, he is paired up against the [[Fuschia City]] Gym Leader, [[Janine]]. In the third match, Falkner begins his battle against Janine and starts off with his {{p|Noctowl}}. The {{type2|Poison}} Gym Leader proves too powerful for him and he is nearly defeated by her {{p|Ariados}}. Falkner eventually wins by default after Janine leaves the battle after seeing what she thought was her missing father, [[Koga]], in the crowd.

Later, when the Masked Man attacks the Pokémon League, Falkner and the other Gym Leaders battle his army of mind controlled {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s. They battle the Grunts on the [[Magnet Train]] and eventually manage to defeat them as they return to the stadium. After the defeat of the Masked Man, Falkner and the other Gym Leaders go back into their usual duties.

In the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}} Falkner, along with his fellow Gym Leaders, [[Chuck]] and [[Bugsy]], are seen guarding the [[Ecruteak Gym]] due to a large amount of people coming there requesting the use of [[Morty]]'s clairvoyance. They are confronted by {{adv|Silver}} who had arrived to ask for Morty's assistance and try to stop him. When he refuses to let them stop him, Silver attacks them and quickly knocks out their Pokémon. Eventually, they stop battling after it is revealed that Silver was supposed to meet Morty anyway; Falkner then takes him to Morty inside of the Gym.

Falkner's father is speculated to be [[Walker]]. He also uses [[Poké Ball]]s that have been turned into boomerangs by attaching Skarmory's shed feathers to their sides.

==Trivia==
* His Japanese Leader title is {{tt|華麗なる飛行ポケモン使い|Magnificent Flying Pokémon Tamer}}.
* Falkner is the only Gym Leader, besides [[Brock]] in [[Generation I]], who gives out a TM that contains a move ({{m|Mud-Slap}}) that is not of his Gym's specialty type.
**However, both of his Pokémon in Generation II can learn Mud-Slap.
**In Generation IV, he instead gives the player {{TM|51|Roost}}.
* Falkner's Pokémon are the lowest level of any Gym Leader. His level 7 and 9 (9 and 13 in [[Generation IV]]) Pokémon include an {{DL|Level|Underleveled Pokémon|underleveled}} {{p|Pidgeotto}} that is unobtainable in games other than {{game2|HeartGold|SoulSilver|Yellow}}.
* Falkner is the only [[Gym Leader]] from either [[Kanto]] or [[Johto]] to only use Pokémon of his {{t|Flying|Gym's specialty type}}, even in the [[Pokémon Stadium series]].
* Falkner's updated [[Ken Sugimori|Sugimori]] artwork depicts him in a pose very similar to that of his Generation II sprite.
* Falkner appears as an opponent in [[Pokémon Puzzle Challenge]]. He uses a {{p|Pidgey}} to battle.
* Falkner, in [[Generation IV]], became the first Gym Leader that the player encounters first to give out a [[TM]] that is incapable of inflicting any damage.
* Falkner is the only male Gym Leader that specializes in Flying-type Pokémon.

Talk:Blue (game)

2011-06-21T14:32:40Z

Sludge: /* Moveset error */

"...previously referred to as Gary in early manuals..."
I checked a few of my manuals:
* English Red: refers to him as "rival"
* English Blue: refers to him as "rival"
* Japanese Blue: refers to him as "Red (rival)"
* Japanese Yellow: refers to him as "Blue (rival)"

So, is the piece about him being referred to as Gary referring to the instruction manuals somewhere, or to players guides? --[[User:Meowth346|Meowth346]]

Interesting. I was going off an official Nintendo strategy guide from Red/Blue. It said Gary in every instance. I said early because in a yellow version one I used to have it no longer said Gary and switched to either Blue or Rival, can't remember which. But if in the actual manuals it's not mentioned, then it should probably be taken out. --[[user:greengiant|greengiant]]

Ah yes, I may know the strategy guide. The anime came out before the games by about a month in the US, so that may be why they chose to use "Ash" and "Gary" -- or even because they knew kids would be used to the anime regardless of when it came out. --[[User:Meowth346|Meowth346]]

Haha. Yeah I have a couple "official" guides that always refers to him as Gary, never "your rival". Which always annoyed me. The only use those guides serve is as an attack reference anyway. - [[User:Ferret|Ferret]] 09:16, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

>Shouldn't he be taken out of the anime characters category? - Zeta

Unfortunately, "Anime Category" is bound to the "Gym Leader" category. If you want to remove it from the anime category, and ensure each Gym Leader properly has this category where applicable, that'd be great. I don't have time at the moment to do it myself. Janine falls into the same spot as being listed in anime -- or was she in it? --[[User:Meowth346|Meowth346]]

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Am I the only person who noticed that they officially changed his name back to Green in FRLG? [[User:Fishman|Fishman]] 21:06, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

:They did, but until GSDS confirms that with him as an NPC, we can't change it back. [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] 13:46, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

----

== Blue's Charizard ==

Why does this page list Blue's Charizard as having Aerial Ace in Red/Blue/Green? Aerial Ace wasn't introduced until 3rd Generation. I don't know what it should be, but it definitely isn't Aerial Ace. --[[User:ZellMurasame|ZellMurasame]] 02:13, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
:Yeah... someone likely took the data straight from FRLG. Anyway... we'll need someone to fix that. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]{{ani|155|Fire echy}}[[User:TTEchidna/GSDS|GSDS!]]''' 03:12, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

::Looks like there was another error with Blue's Charizard that's been hanging there since forever. It was listed as having Dragon Dance, which was introduced in GenII. So I assume it knew Flamethrower instead, but if anyone has a R/B version where they can challenge Blue at Route 22, then I'd be much obliged if they checked me on that. Or, if someone can simply find confirmation on its moves, but I don't know where they might find that. [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] 13:46, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

== Hmmm..... ==

Okay, in Yellow, we know that how Blue evolves Eevee depends on the first two battles. (battle 1=Prof Oak's lab, battle 2=Route 22)

Jolteon: Win battles 1 and 2

Vaporeon: Lose battle 1, lose/skip battle 2

Flareon: Win battle 1, lose/skip battle 2

BUT! What if the player loses the first battle and then wins the second battle? Does Blue not evolve Eevee at all? Is its evolution chose randomly? I lost my Yellow Version YEARS ago, so I couldn't find out myself. I'm [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]], and I approve this [[User Talk:Missingno. Master|message.]] 23:05, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

:It's not based specifically on each individual battle. It's based on the number of times you beat him. If you beat him both times, then it's Jolteon. If you beat him one time, it's Flareon. If you didn't beat him either time, it's Vaporeon. [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] 16:20, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

== A few things ==

The tables of his Pokémon are a bit too much. Any way to fix it? It's annoying to load. Also, in the table for other names, there's an extra column. Lastly, Gary has more than one sprite in the games where he's a rival. [[User: Tc26|'''tc''']][[User talk: Tc26|'''2''']][[Special: Contributions/Tc26|'''6''']] 02:27, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
:It's Blue, not Gary. And we've changed the sprites for his Final Confrontation as Champion for RB. Originally, his RB sprite was used for the yellow tables, because neither Bulbapedia, nor anywhere else on the internet, or so it seems, has the yellow trainer sprites. So I'm ripping them and uploading them as I go. But that means it will take me a bit of time to get to the Championship battle in Yellow, so I'll upload it when I get there (I'm currently at Bill's House in Yellow, but I'm speedplaying).

:Oh, and about the tables being a bit too much, that's the new standard for Bulbapedia. The old version of the pages had just the species names and levels for each encounter, and maybe the moves for the final encounter. So deal with the levels, because it's a real pain to make, and we're not going to revert all that hard work we've done over the last several days. [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] 13:38, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
:Starting with battle 4 there's a new Blue sprite in Yellow and FRLG, and most likely RB. There's also a third (champion) sprite. Just thought I'd throw that out. [[User:Gligar|'''Gli''']][[User talk:Gligar|'''gar''']] 21:04, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
::Yeah, that's why I changed the sprite for Battle 4 in Yellow. There are NO Yellow Trainer sprites, save the ones I've been uploading these past weeks. Give me some time, and I'll get you some sprites. [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] 23:59, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

So... Perhaps due to Tc26's complaint back on the 19th, or simply perhaps because we're goin gto have a new standard, TTEchidna has changed the charts on the Brock Page so as that the tables show more information, the version sprites, and can be hid. Shall we do this for Blue as well? [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] 18:25, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

:I like it a lot better than the other one, personally. It's much more detailed. What do you think? [[User:Okoa|Okoa]] 03:40, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
::Same here. It's just going to be a bitch to change. But, I'll go about it, piece by piece, and I'm sure other people will too. [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] 17:00, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
:::I'll help you out. That's a lot of Trainers to change. =) [[User:Okoa|Okoa]] 17:07, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

==Champion==

This article claims "It is a mystery who Blue's predecessor as Champion was." however, isn't it supposed to be a twist that Blue is the Champion and the player is expecting themselves to be the Champion after beating Lance? Also, I'm sure Lance implies that Blue is the first person to defeat the Elite Four... so surely we are to believe that Blue did not have a predecessor as Champion?
:I agree. It was only by second generation that "Champion" became a title for a standard character, who remains champion for good (though I guess Daigo got ousted by Mikuri, but we'll let that one slide...). The original games imply that beating Wataru makes the player the champion. I quote: "Congratulations, [player], you are now the new Champion! ...Or, you would have been, ...etc." RGBY imply that one only needs to beat the Four Heavenly Kings to become the Pokémon League Champion, but from GSC on, the current Champion was a role that was expected to be faced after the Shitenno. In a way, they (the game designers) decided that the Lord of the Four Heavenly Kings (in myth, the Shitenno always serve a master) was as much an important role so it really becomes more like 5 elite trainers, though I guess they are supposed to serve whoever is the current greatest. The fact the Champion stays on until you decide to not challenge the Shitenno any more and move on to the next game (after which you, the player, truly is the champion, as we see that Red was Champion during the years between RGBY and GSC), the role of Champion seems more like the game designers didn't know what they were going to do with it from then on. Wataru's sudden appearance as the Champion is somewhat of a twist too; if he's a wandering trainer and no longer a member of the Shitenno, it's a surprise that he's the champion. Similarly Daigo, Mikuri, and Shirona all have plot-related roles, and thus are the surprise ending Champions. But at the time of RGBY, they didn't really know they would be using these non-rival Champions, so we can't really say that there had to have been a Champion before Green. [[User:Kumori Satosuke|Satosuke]] 17:00, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

== Generation III Champion sprite ==

===RBG section prototype===
Blue and Red have been rivals ever since they were babies. Before leaving for his journey, he lived in Pallet Town, just like Red.

The player first meets Blue at Professor Oak's lab, where he and Red were asked to come. Oak offers the two of them one Pokémon each, with Red having first choice from {{p|Bulbasaur}}, {{p|Squirtle}}, and {{p|Charmander}}. After Red chooses a Pokémon, Blue chooses the one with a type advantage over Red's. He then brags that his Pokémon looks much stronger. When Red is about to leave, Blue challenges him to a battle. Whatever the outcome, Blue declares his intention to train his Pokémon, and leaves.

Soon, Professor Oak calls the two of them back to give them Pokédexes, and tells them of his dream to categorize all Pokémon in the world with their help. Blue says he can do it by himself, and tells his sister, [[Daisy]], not to give Red a [[Town Map]] (she does so anyway, not acknowledging his words).

...

It isn't until they meet up again in [[Lavender Town]]'s [[Pokémon Tower]] that Blue's initial choice affects the rest of his team, where he switches out his Raticate and switches in Pokémon of the two types he didn't initially choose ({{p|Exeggcute}}, {{p|Gyarados}}, and {{p|Growlithe}} for Bulbasaur, Squirtle, and Charmander), bringing a sort of type balance to his team.

...

After beating the Elite Four, Red finds out from Lance that Blue was one step ahead of him, and is now the Champion. He proceeds into the final battle room to find Blue visibly more mature and with all of his Pokémon in their final evolutions, and he claims that his team could beat any type. Blue brags that he is the most powerful trainer in the world, and the battle starts.

== Shouldn't his name be Green? ==

Well, the reason why we seem to call him Blue is because of the US Pokemon Red & ''Blue'' versions of course. That's probably because in Pokemon Red, the default name for your rival is Blue, and that's his name in G/S/C.

But were in Gen IV now, so shouldn't his name be Green? Since LeafGreen version was ''not'' renamed WaterBlue or something in the US, and according to FireRed version, the default name for your rival is Green.

Also, wtf is the female player of FR/LG being called Leaf? And since when was the HG/SS named Soul? And since when was the D/P/Pt rival named Pearl? I already know the answer: they never had those names :/. --Chaos Rush 00:38:19 (UTC)
:At the moment we are waiting for HGSS, where Blue/Green will be an NPC, rather than a rival, to see what his name is. Until then it was decided above that he will be Blue, as that was his only NPC appearance where the player does not name him.
:The female player character for FR/LG is called "Leaf", because that is what she is named if you cancel out of the naming screen without putting a name in the ''first'' version (i.e. Fire Red). Soul is currently called such based on Leaf (prefix of second version), but may change when HGSS comes out.
:Pearl is called such for the same reason as Leaf - that is what is given if you cancel out of the name entry screen in Diamond.
:Ask an admin for the official policy, but it appears to be that if they are never an NPC that is not named by the player, then they are named with whatever name it gives them if you enter a blank name - essentially the game's defaults. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 00:50, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

:: That's not true. In FireRed, if you leave your name blank, it does ''not'' come out with Leaf. It comes out with a bunch of random names, such as "Suzi" and "June". Also in Diamond and Platinum, if you leave your rival's name blank, he automatically becomes Barry :/. Again, that's pretty much why I think that Leaf and Pearl are stupid fake names.

Illogical of course. We might as well rename the Leaf article, "Amanda/Cassie/Hillary/Jodi/June/Makey/Michi/Omi/Paula/Rey/Seda/Kiko/Mina/Norie/Sai/Momo/Suzi" since those are the defaults, right? That's why it makes no sense, if Leaf is to be named after hidden data, than it would be logical to name the D/P/Pt rival after his hidden data, "Cedric", and yet you guys name him from the default name, while Leaf doesn't get a default name.

==Hair==
While Gary Oak in the anime clearly has brown hair, I guess people are overlooking the fact this character has hair just about the same color as Misty's. His hair is clearly not brown, it's orange, or at the least burnt orange, which is the color most natural redheads have in real life. Someone needs to change his information, please.

No, this isn't the first thing I've done since joining, and that's not the reason I joined. Why? did you join to "bitch" about new users? Also, you clearly don't know what auburn is, because auburn is a deep shade of red(the actual color) and brown. Guess I'm pretty good at bitching about hair colors though.

"Kinda orangish-brown with flecks of white in it, happy now?" So somebody edited his page to say this.
Okay? The fact just about everyone here has problems with me just because I wanted to get his details on his page right, even to this degree of flaming, is crazy. Nice way to run a wiki.

:Clearly it's not brown though. That's the whole point. I guess we should go to Misty's page and say it's just a bright shade of brown. And if it were stated somewhere his hair was brown, I wouldn't even try to change it. I'm not an idiot, I just happen to know something about redheads. Misty's hair looks pretty brown in her battle sprites too, does that mean her hair's brown. In artwork and in his profile it's orange, so because his battle sprites have slightly more brown hair you wanna call it brown. Quit avoiding the blatant fact he has a redhead tone of hair people. Also, if for example a room full of people told you Pikachu wasn't yellow, would that mean it was true? No, because it's obvious. [[User:Getsuei|Getsuei]] 05:34, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
::What's funny about you comparing Misty and Blue, is that the dark parts of her hair are as dark as the light parts of his hair.

:The point is that people who are brunettes do not have orange in their hair naturally speaking. If you have orange in your hair you are a redhead. I'm a redhead, I know the facts about redheads. Burnt Orange, Orange Brown, whatever. The point is his hair isn't brown, it's clearly a shade of orange. Go to Princess Daisy's page on the mariowiki. You people probably think she's a brunette, but you're wrong. Her hair just happens to range in shades of dark and bright orange. Even stated by Nintendo her hair is orange. The point is you people are avoiding the fact that just because his hair isn't a blatant bright orange color, that he is not a brunette and his hair is not classifiable as brown. If you all really want to be so stubborn as to avoid something so obvious, fine. It's obvious if I could edit this page some moron would revert my edit anyway. Also, nice job responding to someone with flames when I didn't even act rude or "bitchy" in the first place. Now though, you people can decide on this situation for yourselves.

"Blue is one of only two NPCs who has been both a Gym Leader and a Champion. The other is Wallace (though Wallace was a Gym Leader before becoming Champion, and Blue does the reverse).

"Blue is the only rival with a starter that could be weak to the players starter"

But doesn't the rival in Diamond, Pearl and Platinum become weak to the players starter if you choose Chimchar?

Piplup becomes Prinplup, then Empoleon, a Water/Steel type right? If Chimchar evolves into Monferno (then Infernape), a Fire/Fighting type, wouldn't you have the advantage against the secondary typing of that Empoleon? [[User:Gengarzilla|Gengarzilla]] 21:41, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

== Flareon's moveset. ==

I don't know why, but in Pokémon Yellow, Flareon is capable of using Reflect. When I used Omastar (or Omanyte) lvl ~42 to fight him with Water Gun Flareon doesn't attacked, just used Reflect every time. Also, recently when I attacked it with Thunder... it used Reflect. Does moveset varies or what? [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] 19:13, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

== Alakazam's moveset ==

In Pokémon Yellow Version, Champion Blue's Alakazam knows the move Psychic. Swift or Kinesis must be wrong. Probably Swift, since Alakazam and its evolutionary relatives aren't capable of learning that move according to Bulbapedia. It might know Reflect as well.

Backpacker (Trainer class)

A '''Backpacker''' (Japanese: '''バックパッカー''' ''Backpacker'') is a type of [[Trainer class]] introduced in [[Generation V]]. They are young men and women who carry large backpacks with them.

Backpackers use many different types of Pokémon. They will always have just one Pokémon in their party unless they are involved in a [[triple battle]] or a [[rotation battle]]. Some will give out [[Max Repel|Max Repels]] when defeated.

And yes, I like to have my HM slave be the same level as my team.

Linoone is actually quite good, despite being my slave.

It's amazing what grinding for wild held items can do :D
It only took me 15 minutes all together to find a Fearow holding a Sharp Beak and a Sandslash holding a Soft Sand, it was only a matter of using thief then running away. ;)

'''Spore''' (Japanese: '''キノコのほうし''' ''Mushroom Spore'') is a non-damage-dealing {{type2|Grass}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. Up until [[Generation III]], it was {{p|Paras}} and {{p|Parasect}}'s [[signature move]].

==Effect==
===Generation I-II===
Spore puts the target to {{status|sleep}}. It will not affect a target that already has a major status ailment. In Stadium, Spore can't affect a target that has a {{m|Substitute}}.

===Generation III and on===
Spore's effects remain the same, except that now it can't affect targets with {{a|Insomnia}} or {{a|Vital Spirit}} as their ability.

===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon===
The user will make all Pokémon in the room fall asleep, all other effects are the same.

==Trivia==
* As its English and Japanese names imply, Spore can only be learned by mushroom-based Pokémon, with the obvious exception of {{p|Smeargle}}.
* Every odd numbered Generation has introduced a new evolutionary line that can learn Spore.
* Spore is the only sleep-inducing move with 100% accuracy, without aids such as held items or other moves.

'''N''' (Japanese: '''Ｎ（エヌ）''' ''N'') is a character in {{2v|Black|White}}. He is the leader of [[Team Plasma]] and aspires to create separate worlds for [[human]]s and {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. His surname is '''Harmonia''' (Japanese: '''ハルモニア''' ''Harmonia'').

==In the games==
[[File:Young N.png|left|thumb|N as a child]]
[[File:NClose.png|256px|right|thumb|A close-up of N in [[N's Castle|his castle]] after the final battle]]
N is the only son of [[Ghetsis]], the head member of the [[Seven Sages]]. As he grew up, he was appointed as the king and leader of [[Team Plasma]]. He is an antagonist to the player, but yet is good natured and sees Pokémon as his friends. He appears before the {{player}} at several points during the game to battle.

As a child, he was raised together with {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and was isolated from [[human]]s. Ghetsis would only let N see Pokémon that had been hurt by humans.

In Black and White, N is first seen in the game's prologue movie, in which N, clothed in special garb, is crowned by Ghetsis in the throne room of a castle. During the ceremony, as the other Sages watch, N remembers his childhood spent with his Pokémon friends.

The player first meets N in [[Accumula Town]] after Team Plasma's public rally and Ghetsis's speech, where he challenges the player to a [[Pokémon battle]]. He again appears outside of the [[Nacrene Gym]], and later at [[Nimbasa City]], where he asks the player to talk to him while riding the city's Ferris Wheel. It is not revealed that N is the leader of Unova's criminal organization until after this excursion, when a group of Plasma Grunts address him as their leader. He is again encountered at the [[Chargestone Cave]] and lastly, the [[Dragonspiral Tower]], where he found {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}} for his plans.

When the player challenges the [[Pokémon League (Unova)|Pokémon League]], after beating the [[Elite Four]], the player finds N with [[Alder]] the [[Champion]], arguing over the use of Pokémon as tools. When the player arrives, N summons [[N's Castle|his Castle]] from the earth, which attaches itself to the Pokémon League, and as he enters the Castle, he challenges the player to face him. [[Cheren]] arrives, and he and Alder ask the player to stop him.

Within the castle's throne room, N tells the player that his goal is to create separate worlds for both humans and Pokémon. To do this, he summons {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}}. At the same time, the player summons the other, opposing dragon, and N encourages the player to battle it.

Once the dragon is caught, N will challenge the player. After N is defeated, Ghetsis appears and reveals he revived {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}} for his son to use, calling him a disappointment. Team Plasma's motive for stealing Pokémon—separate worlds—is shown to be a lie. Ghetsis manipulated N and Team Plasma to ensure that he was the only person in Unova with Pokémon so that he could dominate the region. Alder and Cheren both hear this. Ghetsis battles the player in a rage, despite N's protest. After the battle, Alder and Cheren arrest Ghetsis and take him away.

After the battle, N apologizes, walks to a hole to outside on edge of the throne room, releases his legendary Pokémon, and bids a final farewell to the player. Then, after the credit-roll, an epilogue movie plays in which {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}}, with N on top, hovers above the clouds and, activating its tail's engine, accelerates away.

After the player finds the other Sages for [[Looker]], Looker says that he has heard that N was seen in a distant land with a {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon.

===Quotes===
===={{game|Black and White|s}}====
{{incomplete|section}}
=====At [[Accumula Town]]=====
*Before battle:
''"Your Pokémon... Just now, it was saying..."''

''"Yes, they're talking. Oh. Then, you two can't hear it, either... How sad. My name is N."''

''"The [[Pokédex]], eh? So... You're going to confine many, many Pokémon in [[Poké Ball]]s for that, then. I'm a {{pkmn|Trainer}}, too, but I can't help wondering... Are Pokémon really happy that way?"''

''"Well, <player>, is it? Let me hear your Pokémon's voice again!"''

*After takes a hit:
''"More! Let me hear the voice of your Pokémon!"''

*After being defeated:
''"I never expected to hear Pokémon say such things..."''

*After the battle:
''"As long as Pokémon are confined in Poké Balls... Pokémon will never become perfect beings. I have to change the world for Pokémon, because they're my friends."''

=====At [[Nacrene City]]=====
''"I... want to see things no one can see. The truths of Pokémon inside Poké Balls. The ideals of how Trainers should be. And a future where Pokémon have become perfect... Do you feel the same?"''

*If Yes is selected:
''"That so? I think my friends and I should test you to see if you can see this future, too."''

*If No is selected:
''"Huh. I expected more from you. Now pay attention. My friends and I will test you to see if you can see this future, too."''

*After being defeated:
''"I cannot see the future yet... The [[Pokémon world|world]] is still to be determined..."''

*After battle:
''"Right now, my friends aren't strong enough to save all Pokémon. Maybe I can't solve the equation that will change the world. So, I need power... Power enough to make anyone agree with me.''

''Now I know what power I need. {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}}! The [[legendary Pokémon]] that, along with the hero, created the [[Unova]] region. It's my turn to become that hero--and you and I will be friends!"''

=====At [[Nimbasa City]]=====
''"You're looking for Team Plasma, right? They ran into the amusement park. Come with me."''

''"They're not here. Let's ride the Ferris wheel and see if we can spot them. I love Ferris wheels… The circular motion… The mechanics… They're like collections of elegant formulas."''

''"First, I must tell you… I am the king of Team Plasma. Ghetsis asked me to work with him to save Pokémon. I wonder how many Pokémon exist in this world."''

''"There's no problem. You're part of the people we brought in to help us save the Pokémon. So, you're under my protection, as well. Go, quickly, and let my battle cover your retreat. …Now then, <Player>, do you follow my logic?"''

*Yes: ''"If true, your words please me."''
*No: ''"So that's how it is... That's unfortunate."''

''"Ah. Then… The future I envision… Perhaps I can't beat you here and now, but I'll battle you to buy time for these members of Team Plasma to get away!"''

*After the first move
''"Your Pokémon look happy."''

*After sending out last Pokémon:
''"Even if I lose, is it different than the future I envision?"''

*Upon defeat:
''"The result was the same… But you…who are you?"''

*After battle:
''"You're quite strong. But I have a future that I must change. And, for that future… I'll defeat the Champion and become unbeatable, unlike any other! I'll make all Trainers free their Pokémon! Just try and stop me! If you want to be together with Pokémon, your only hope is to collect the Badges from each area and head for the Pokémon League! Try and stop me there, if you dare! If your conviction is not strong enough, you will never be able to defeat me."''

=====At [[Chargestone Cave]]=====
''"Ah, yes. That was the [[Shadow Triad]], just now. [[Ghetsis]] enlisted them in [[Team Plasma]]. Apparently, they were the ones who prepared the {{p|Galvantula}} nest at the cave entrance."''

''"Chargestone Cave... I like this place. Formulas express {{t|Electric|electricity}} and its connection to Pokémon... If people did not exist, this would be an ideal place. You have been chosen, you know. Does it surprise you I said that?"''

*Yes: ''"Of course. Such news should be a surprise."''
*No: ''"Hmph. If you don't understand what that means, it's not likely to surprise you."''

''"I told Ghetsis about you and your friends. After I did, he apparently used the Shadow Triad to find out about you. [[Cheren]] is pursuing the ideal of strength. Poor [[Bianca]] has faced the sad truth that not everyone can become stronger. And you are not swayed either way--more of a neutral presence. Which is apparently a good thing. Team Plasma will be waiting for you ahead. Ghetsis wants to see what kind of Pokémon Trainer you really are.''

*Before battle:
''"Many different values mix together, and the world becomes gray... That is unforgivable! I will separate Pokémon and people, and [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|black and white]] will be clearly distinct! Only then will Pokémon become perfect beings! Yes, that is my dream! That is the dream I must fulfill! <player>, do you have a dream of your own?"''

*Yes: ''"You have a dream... That's wonderful. I'll learn just what kind of dream you have--in battle!"''
*No: ''"As if a person without a dream could ever understand me! Eh... I guess... I have to crush your will here!"''

*After takes a hit:
''"Do you believe that [[Pokémon battle]]s help us understand one another?"''

*After sending out last Pokémon:
''"I will show you that my love for my friends permeates every cell of my body. Behold!"''

*Upon defeat:
''"My friends getting hurt... That's what a Pokémon battle is."''

*After battle:
''"Tsk! Why? Is it impossible for me to win while feeling bad about being a Trainer? As if I could pursue my ideals with something as meaningless as a battle! As if that could make me worthy to become friends with the [[legendary Pokémon]]!"''

''"[[Professor Juniper]], what are you thinking? You appear to have no qualms about the relationship between Pokémon and people. You put Pokémon into categories using arbitrary rules and think you can understand them like that... The very idea of a Pokédex revolts me. What do you have to say for yourself?"''

''"You're saying I should just allow people to think whatever they want and treat Pokémon however they want, no matter whether the Pokémon suffer? I refuse to tolerate the existence of a world like that!"''

=====At [[Mistralton City]]=====
''"They may say it is for understanding one another better, but what Trainers really use battles for is to compete... And they hurt each other's Pokémon! Am I the only one who finds this terribly painful? Whatever... I'm going to talk to your Pokémon. I've been living with Pokémon since I was born, so it's easier for me to talk with them than with people. ...Because Pokémon never tell lies."''

''"Hey, <lead Pokémon>. Would you tell me what kind of Trainer <player> is?"''

''"OK, OK, got it. So <player> was born in [[Nuvema Town]], lives with [[Mom]], and was given the Pokédex to start off a journey to see the world. Still, this <lead Pokémon> trusts you for some reason. That's good! If every person and Pokémon cared about one another like you two do, I could watch over the future of people and Pokémon without having to liberate Pokémon from people who just use them."''

''"Ghetsis is using Team Plasma to search for some special stones--the {{DL|List of key items in Generation V|Light Stone}} and the {{DL|List of key items in Generation V|Dark Stone}}... These stones hold the essence of two legendary Pokémon. It is said that when they lost their physical form, they fell into a slumber and were transformed. Now, they wait for the hero's arrival... I shall resurrect a legendary {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon from one of these stones, and become its friend. That will show the world that I am the new hero. Everyone will follow what I say!"''

''"My vision is to change the world without using force. Trying to change the world by force will just make others resist. If people resist, the ones that will be hurt are the innocent Pokémon used by foolish Trainers. You understand. Pokémon are not just tools for people to use!"''

''"As a result... Pokémon and Trainers who care about one another, like you and your Pokémon, will be separated. And that does break my heart a little."''

=====At [[Dragonspiral Tower]]=====

''"What do you think, <Player>? How do you like the powerful form of the Pokémon who appears before and fights beside the hero that will lead the way to a new world? Now, {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}} and I will head to the Pokémon League and defeat the Champion! This will be the last of the Pokémon battles that hurt Pokémon so. A world for Pokémon alone… It's finally going to be a reality. If you want to stop me, you must become a hero as well! That's right! When {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}}'s counterpart, {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|W}}, recognizes you, we will finally be even, and then you can try to stop us! Well, what will you do? My prediction… If the future that I see is true, you will meet {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|W}}. The Pokémon with you believe in you so strongly… Will you be the one who interferes with my formula for changing the world? If you want to protect the bonds between Pokémon and people, you must search for {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|W}}! I'm sure it is waiting for you in the form of the Light Stone{{sup|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup|W}}.''"

=====At [[Pokémon League]]=====

''"It's over! Never again will Pokémon be made to suffer or be held captive by humans. It's all thanks to my friend, {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}}! You may have the title of Champion… But you can't stop me with just a title. Your soft heart has left you weak. Years ago, you lost your Pokémon, your partner, to sickness. In order to forget the pain in your heart, you wandered Unova… Who knows how long it's been since you've had to fight with your full strength? I actually kind of like that about you, though. As a Trainer who far outmatches the Champion, I shall issue an order across Unova: Trainers of the world, free your Pokémon!"''

''"You and I both put our beliefs on the line and fought with all our strength. And I won. Do not say another word."''

''"…I've been waiting. In the future I envisioned, you obtained a stone. And, indeed, you have. That Light Stone{{sup|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup|W}}… {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}} is responding to it. Stop. This is not a suitable for the legendary dragons! From the ground, rise up! The castle of Team Plasma! Surround the Pokémon League!"''

''"What has just happeared is Team Plasma's castle. The king's words will resound frome the heights to all below. You must come to the castle, as well. Everything will be decided there. Whether Pokémon will be liberated from people, or whether Pokémon and people will live together… We will see whose belief is stronger… And our result will change the world."''

=====At [[N's Castle]]=====
''"What I desire is a world for Pokémon, and Pokémon alone. I will separate Pokémon from people, so Pokémon can regain their original power."

''"It's time to settle this once and for all! My determination is absolute! I will prove the value of my beliefs even if it means my Pokémon friends get hurt! Since you've come this far, I believe you are equally determined. If that's so, prove it to me! Show me the depth of your determination!"''

''"You came all this way to battle me… But {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|W}} is not responding. You haven't yet been recognized as the hero, have you? How disappointing. I actually kind of liked you a little. Through our many battles, I got the feeling that you might be a Trainer who truly cares for Pokémon!"''

''"But I was kidding myself. The idea of Trainers getting to know each other through battles is ridculous! You have two options. Challenge me to a fight you can't win, or leave this place and watch the birth of a new world where Pokémon are free of people! {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}}! Come to me!"''

''"Your Light Stone{{sup|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup|W}} is… I mean, {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|W}} is…"''

''"Zekrom and Reshiram… They were once one life. One Pokémon. Complete opposites, yet the same. Zekrom and Reshiram are Pokémon that appear before the hero they recognize. Ah… I see. you really are a hero, too. I'll tell you what that Pokémon is saying to you. "I want to battle with you. Try to make me your friend and ally." It plans to test you to see if you are really pursuing truth{{sup|Bl}}/ideals{{sup|W}}. I, also, am curious to see how powerful you are. Now, catch {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|W}} and make it your ally!"''

''"Ah… I see. {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|W}}, who is said to lend its power to the hero who searches for truth{{sup|Bl}}/ideals{{sup|W}}, has recognized your power and now agrees to stand by your side…"''

''"Hold on. Your Pokémon are hurt. There is no triumph to be gained in battling a weakened opponent."''

''"Now, I will create the future I desire! I shall sweep you before me!"''

*First hit:
''"Do you really think you can stop us with that?"''

*After sending out last Pokémon:
''"My last friend… Please share your courage with me!"''

*Upon defeat:
''"Everything's ruined. The ideals{{sup|Bl}}/truth{{sup|W}} I held… The dreams Pokémon shared…"''

*After battle:
''"… … {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}} and I were beaten. Your truth{{sup|Bl}}/ideals{{sup|W}}… Your feelings… They were stronger than mine, it seems… Reshiram and Zekrom… Each of them choosing a different hero… Is that even possible? Two heroes living at the same time— one that pursues truth and one that pursues ideals. Could… Could they both be right? I don't know. it's not by rejecting different ideas, but by accepting different ideas that the world creates a chemical reaction. This is truly the formula for changing the world."''

''"But…I have no right to be the hero!"''

''"Acting like you understand… Up till now, we've been fighting each other over our beliefs! Yet, despite that… Why?!"''

''"I want to talk to you about something."''

''"It's about when I first met you in Accumula Town. I was shocked when I heard what your Pokémon was saying. I was shocked because that Pokémon said it liked you. It said it wanted to be with you."''

''"I couldn't understand it. I couldn't believe there were Pokémon that liked people. Because, up until that moment, I'd never known a Pokémon like that. The longer my journey continued, the more unsure I became. All I kept meeting were Pokémon and people who communicated with one another and helped one another. That was why I needed to confirm my beliefs by battling with you. I wanted to confront you hero-to-hero. I needed that more than anything."''

''"There's no way a person like me, someone who understands only Pokémon— No, actually… I didn't understand them, either. No way could I measure up to you, when you had met so many Pokémon and were surrounded by friends…"''

''"The Champion has forgiven me, and… What I should do now is something I'll have to decide for myself."''

*Black:
''"<Player>! You said you have a dream… That dream… Make it come true! Make your wonderful dream a reality, and it will become your truth! <Player>! If anyone can, it's you! Well, then… Farewell!"''

*White:
''"<Player>! You said you have a dream… That dream… Make it come true! Wonderful dreams and ideals give you the power to change the world! If anyone can, it's you! <Player>! Well, then… Farewell!"''

==In the manga==
[[File:N Adventures.png|thumb|right|150px|N as he appears in Pokémon Adventures]]
===In the Pocket Monsters BW manga===
N first appears in the fourth chapter of the Pocket Monsters BW manga where he shows his ability to communicate with Pokémon which [[Isamu Akai's Clefairy]] tries to record and sell for money.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
N makes his first appearance standing near an [[Xtransceiver]] commercial shooting after {{adv|Black}} manages to save it from being attacked by a wild {{p|Galvantula}}. He sheds tears over the fact that Pokémon are being used for purposes such as acting.

He later appears in [[Accumula Town]] where he states that Black’s Tula is trying to speak with him when Black contemplates releasing it. Black immediately dismisses the thought of a Pokémon talking in a human language; N states that he feels sorry for Black because he cannot hear the voices of Pokémon. N asks for Black to battle him so that he can hear the voices of his Pokémon and he easily overpowers him with his {{p|Purrloin}}, {{p|Pidove}}, {{p|Tympole}}, and {{p|Gurdurr}}.

When Black pulls out his Pokédex to try and get an edge in the battle N immediately grabs the machine and voices his disgust for it. He states that many of his friends were locked up inside Poké Balls so that they can be used to store data in the Pokédex, making them nothing more than something to fill the Pokédex with information.

N states that he questions if Pokémon are truly happy when they’re locked up inside of Poké Balls; he states that once a Pokémon is locked up inside of a Poké Ball then it’s voice is lost and he can longer understand them. He tells Black that he knows when a Pokémon attack will do the most damage and the moment it can happen and that he should rely on his ears to listen to Pokémon rather than using a machine’s data.

He begins to tear up while stating that it is impossible for humans and Pokémon to be truly happy together and that they suffer because people cannot hear their voices. His speeches cause Black’s anger to reach a boiling point; Black tells him to be quiet and asks him if his Pokémon are unhappy; he states that he loves Pokémon and wants to learn more about them. Black states that Pokédex is a tool for people to get closer to Pokémon and there are Pokémon who want to be with humans and tells his Poka to make him understand that. Black’s Poka manages to defeat N’s Tympole and knocks the two of them back into a wall. N gets back up and reveals that he heard Poka’s voice; he states that he now knows that there are Pokémon that enjoy the company of Trainers and leaves with the rest of his Pokémon.

==Trivia==
* The cube hanging off of N's belt is the first iteration of a {{wp|Menger sponge}}, a geometric figure that simultaneously has infinite surface area and zero volume. It could also be a {{wp|Void Cube}}, which has a similar appearance.
* N, [[Bianca]], and [[Cheren]] are the only Trainers in {{v2|Black and White|s}} with animated battle sprites.
* Unlike most recurring characters, N battles with a completely different team in every appearance (except for his {{p|Klinklang}}, which may have evolved from the {{p|Klink}} from the fourth battle). This may stem from his belief that Pokémon should not be used as tools.
* N is the only Trainer from a [[main series]] game not fought in a [[Battle Tower]] or [[Battle Frontier]] to use a [[legendary Pokémon]] on his team, and the only Trainer to use an [[event Pokémon]].
* N uses 15 of the 17 types of Pokémon, only not using Pokémon of the {{t|Poison}} and {{t|Ghost}} types. Ironically, Poison-type Pokémon are often used by members of villainous teams.
* N is fought more times than any other villainous team leader. However, he uses the [[Pokemon Trainer#As a Trainer class|Pokémon Trainer]] class during his first two battles.
* N is the only villainous team leader who keeps his Japanese name.
* N speaks very quickly, as indicated by the fact that his dialogue is printed faster than that of other characters and by Cheren's comment upon first meeting him: "Slow down. You talk too fast."

{{Bulbanews|'Battle & Get! Pokémon Typing DS!' announced}}
(Japanese: '''バトル&ゲット！ポケモンタイピングDS''' ''Battle & Get! Pokémon Typing DS'') is the first [[Generation V]] [[spin-off Pokémon games|spin-off Pokémon game]].

==Gameplay==
The game is played with an attaching keyboard. The player will type a Pokémon's name in Rōmaji; the game uses {{wp|Nihon-shiki romanization}}s, not the trademarked ones. Its purpose is to teach Japanese children to type. As the player types the Pokémon's name in Rōmaji, they will catch it, hence the title. The game comes with a {{wp|Bluetooth}}-enabled {{wp|QWERTY}} keyboard that communicates with the game card, though players may also opt for a keyboard on the touch screen.

It's amazing what grinding for wild held items can do :D
It only took me 15 minutes all together to find a Fearow holding a Sharp Beak and a Sandslash holding a Soft Sand, it was only a matter of using thief then running away. ;)

Friendship

Sludge: Fixed the link.

{{outdated|needs=Generation V}}
'''Happiness''' is a measurement of how much a Pokémon loves its {{pkmn|Trainer}} and enjoys being in their care. Happiness affects the [[evolution]] of [[:Category:Pokémon that evolve by happiness|certain Pokémon]], the power of {{m|Return}} and {{m|Frustration}}, and the availability of a few in-game items and ribbons. Certain events increase a Pokémon's happiness (gaining a level, walking 256 steps) or decrease it (fainting, using [[herbal medicine]]).

Happiness was introduced in {{game|Yellow}} for the player's starting Pikachu only, and expanded to cover all Pokémon in [[Generation II]].

==Generation I==
A prototype of the happiness system used by later games was introduced in {{game|Yellow}}, the last [[main series]] game of [[Generation I]]. Like the later system, its value ranged between 0 and 255 inclusive -- however, this value was only applied to the {{ga|Red's Pikachu|Pikachu}} the player [[starter Pokémon|started with]].
[[Image:PikachuY-Happy.png|thumb|right|Pikachu at maximum happiness.]]
Unlike later games, since Pikachu is outside of its [[Poké Ball]], the {{player}} can turn and look at it at any time as it follows him around the overworld. Pikachu will then indicate its happiness in a small window that appears. At maximum happiness, Pikachu will jump up and down before the window appears.

Like later games, Pikachu's happiness will rise when it gains a level. If its Trainer uses an item on Pikachu, its happiness will also rise, even if it is an item that has no effect on Pikachu (such as a [[Potion]] at full HP). In this manner, Pikachu is much easier to make happy than Pokémon in future generations.

Pikachu's happiness drops if it is put into [[Bill's PC]] or faints. Trading it to another game will reset its happiness to 0.

Happiness is not recorded for any other Pokémon in Generation I, and the happiness of Pikachu does not affect much: the only real effect it has is whether or not [[Melanie]] will give {{p|Bulbasaur}} away in [[Cerulean City]], which she will only do if Pikachu's happiness is 147 or higher.

==Generation II==
In [[Generation II]], the happiness system became fully implemented, building on the system used in Yellow by tracking the happiness of every Pokémon owned by the Trainer. Like before, it is a single byte with a value between 0 and 255.

Happiness is set when a Pokémon is brought under a Trainer's control: that is, it is 70 when a Pokémon is captured from the wild, and reset to 70 when a Pokémon is traded from another game. When a Pokémon is hatched from an {{pkmn|egg}}, its value is set to 120. If a Pokémon is captured in a [[Poké Ball#Generation II Poké Balls|Friend Ball]], rather than any other kind, its happiness is set to 200 instead.

Another function was given to happiness in Generation II: the evolution of certain Pokémon, which has continued until the present as each generation introduces new Pokémon which evolve through happiness. Happiness-based evolutions occur when a Pokémon's happiness is 220 or higher.

Unlike in Generation I, happiness will not increase if an item that cannot be used is used on a Pokémon: for example, using an [[HP Up]] on a {{p|Quilava}} which already has the maximum HP it can have will not result in raised happiness.

However, some things, though frequently reported, aren't part of the Generation II modifier. The following are actions that do not affect a Pokémon's happiness, either positively or negatively:
*Putting a Pokémon in Bill's PC
*Healing a Pokémon when weak and injured
*Giving a Pokémon a hold item
*Using a Pokémon in battles
*Winning battles with a Pokémon
*Letting a Pokémon's HP fall to critical status
*Letting the player's Pokémon get a status condition like Paralysis
*Walking when the player's Pokémon has a status condition

==Generation III==
Happiness in [[Generation III]] works much the same as before, with two additional happiness-boosting mechanics. If a Pokémon is caught in a [[Luxury Ball]] or is holding a [[Soothe Bell]], all happiness-raising events will increase the Pokémon's happiness by one point more; happiness-lowering events are not affected. These effects stack on each other, meaning a Pokémon in a Luxury Ball holding a Soothe Bell gets two additional points per event.

Pokémon now have a [[List of Pokémon by base happiness|base happiness]] per species; however, most catchable Pokémon have the standard 70 points as their starting level.

===Pokémon Fire Red and Leaf Green===

In the [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen]] [[version|Versions]], the player can know the happiness level of his/her Pokémon through the scene which appears after the player uses an item on the Pokémon. The Pokémon will either move towards the screen or not move at all. If the Pokémon does not move, then its happiness level is neutral. The happiness level of the Pokémon can be indicated by looking at how near the Pokémon goes to the player. The nearer the Pokémon moves towards the screen the higher its happiness level and the more it likes its trainer.

==Generation IV==
Happiness in [[Generation IV]] is much the same as it is in [[Generation III]], though the conditions are altered slightly. The Luxury Ball now causes a Pokémon to gain a seperate boost in happiness when they level up and while walking compared to Pokémon in other Balls.

[[Dr. Footstep]], the sole resident of the Footstep House on {{rt|213|Sinnoh}}, will give a Pokémon with maximum happiness a [[ribbon]].

In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the player can gauge their Pokémon's happiness based on the phrase that appears when they are spoken to outside of their Poké Ball.

[[Daisy Oak|Daisy]] makes a return in HeartGold and SoulSilver. Visiting her in Pallet Town will let her groom one of the player's Pokémon between 15:00 and 16:00 every day, increasing its happiness.

The [[Haircut brothers]] also make a return in HeartGold and SoulSilver. The player can visit them on any day of the week besides Monday to give one of their Pokémon a boost in happiness.

In the table below, the first and second values separated by slashes show the changes for most Poké Balls and [[Luxury Ball]]s, respectively. Note that holding a [[Soothe Bell]] will apply a multiplier of 1.5 (rounding down) to only '''positive''' changes and that use of [[Luxury Ball]]s will ''not'' reduce the effects of negative changes.

† These include [[Pomeg Berry]], [[Kelpsy Berry]], [[Qualot Berry]], [[Hondew Berry]], [[Grepa Berry]], and [[Tamato Berry]] (No. 21-26).

===Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia===
[[File:Happy Mood SoA.png|frame|Two Pokémon in a Happy Mood]]
Happiness also has an effect in the second Ranger game. [[Partner Pokémon]] can have the condition of ''Fine'', ''Happy'', or ''Very Happy''. When it is in a Happy Mood, musical notes come out. Black musical notes come out of it when it is happy. Multicolored musical notes come out when it is very happy. This may happen whether or not it is with the player. This state of mind increases the speed the Partner Gauge fills up due to more Partner Energy being given.

==Generation V==
{{incomplete|section}}
Happiness is very much the same in Generation V as it was in Generation IV. A lady in [[Nacrene City]] will rate the happiness of the player's Pokémon. Another lady, in the [[Pokémon Fan Club]] located in [[Icirrus City]] will also rate the happiness of the player's Pokémon. A third lady in [[Castelia City]] will massage your Pokémon once per day, raising its happiness. She is located in the first building on the left side of [[Castelia_City#Castelia_Street|Castelia Street]]].

==Evolutions==
Several Pokémon evolve after levelling-up, to any level, when their happiness level is at or above 220:

==Happiness raters==
Happiness raters are [[NPC]]s that will indicate the happiness of the first Pokémon in the player's party when spoken to. Some will give away certain items depending on the happiness, while others just tell the player how happy the Pokémon is.

*[[Goldenrod City]]: A woman in the house northeast of the Bike Shop will rate a Pokémon's happiness.

*[[Pacifidlog Town]]: Once every week, a man gives away either {{TM|27|Return}} (happiness above 150) or {{TM|21|Frustration}} (happiness below 100).
*[[Pallet Town]]: At {{ga|Blue}}'s house, [[Daisy Oak|Daisy]] will rate a Pokémon's happiness.{{sup|FRLG}}
*[[Hearthome City]]: An NPC rates happiness in the [[Pokémon Fan Club]].
*{{rt|213|Sinnoh}}: At the Footstep House, [[Dr. Footstep]] will rate a Pokémon's happiness, albeit in a roundabout way which differs among Pokémon species.
*[[Eterna City]]: A woman who gives the player the [[Pokétch]] App, [[Pokétch#Friendship Checker|Friendship Checker]], will rate the happiness of the player's Pokémon.
*[[Nacrene City]]: A woman in the building to the right of the Pokémon Center with a {{p|Cottonee}} will rate a Pokémon's happiness.
*[[Icirrus City]]: At the [[Pokémon Fan Club]], a member there will rate a Pokémon's happiness.

In addition, the [[Pokétch]] App, [[Pokétch#Friendship Checker|Friendship Checker]], will display a Pokémon's happiness on a scale of one to two small or big hearts. If the Pokémon has a low happiness number, then it will move away from the point where the [[Nintendo DS]] screen is touched.

== Trivia ==
*The only [[regional Pokédex]] that contained all Pokémon that evolve by happiness at the time was the [[List of Pokémon by New Pokédex number|old Johto Pokédex]]. Neither the Hoenn Pokédex, Sinnoh Pokédex (before or after the expansion) nor the New Johto Pokédex contained all happiness-evolvers as of their respective generation, with the Sinnoh Pokédex excluding only {{p|Igglybuff}} and its family.

'''Iris''' (Japanese: '''アイリス''' ''Iris'') is one of the [[Gym Leader]]s of [[Opelucid City]]'s Gym, known officially as the [[Opelucid Gym]]. She specializes in {{type2|Dragon}} Pokémon. She gives the {{badge|Legend}} to Trainers who defeat her.

==In the games==
Iris appears in {{game|Black and White|s}}. In both versions, she shows up to aid the player, [[Burgh]], and [[Bianca]] when Bianca's Munna is stolen; during this time, she acts as "Bianca's bodyguard". In {{game3|Black and White|White|s}}, she is the [[Gym Leader]] of Opelucid City's gym. This gym is the eighth to be challenged by the player. Trainers who defeat Iris will receive the Legend Badge, along with {{TM|82|Dragon Tail}}. She also reappears at [[N's Castle]] where she and the other [[Unova]] Gym Leaders hold off the [[Seven Sages]]. In the summer, she visits [[Cynthia]] at [[Undella Town]].

In {{game3|Black and White|Black|s}}, she will teach {{m|Draco Meteor}} to the player's {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon if they have a great bond of friendship. She can be found in [[Drayden]]'s home in Opelucid City.

'''Charmander''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヒトカゲ''' ''Hitokage'') is a {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Charmeleon}} starting at [[level]] 16, who evolves into {{p|Charizard}} starting at level 36.

Along with {{p|Bulbasaur}} and {{p|Squirtle}}, Charmander is one of three [[starter Pokémon]] available at the beginning of [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions|Pokémon Red, Green]], [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Blue]], [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed, and LeafGreen]].

It is also available in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, after obtaining all sixteen [[badge]]s and defeating {{ga|Red}}.

==Biology==

===Physiology===
Charmander is an orange reptilian creature resembling a bipedal {{wp|salamander}} with some dinosaur qualities, particularly like those of theropods. Charmander has four small fangs visible on its upper and lower jaws, a cream underside and an expansive cream coloration on the sole of its foot. Its most notable feature is the flame burning on the tip of its tail, which is there even at birth. It is said that if this flame goes out, the Pokémon dies, although this has never happened in the anime, manga, or video games.

Charmander has been described as cute in appearance, but despite this one may have to regard it with caution as its {{m|Slash|slashing}} claws are sharp and strong, and thus potentially dangerous.

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

====Special abilities====
Charmander can breathe fire, which allows them to use a wide range of {{type2|Fire}} attacks. However, the strength of these are very closely connected to the strength and health of the Charmander, since it draws on the life force which fuels the flame on its tail to fuel the flames of its attacks. With time, it can learn powerful Fire-type techniques like {{m|Flamethrower}} and {{m|Fire Blast}}. It can even learn to breathe the blue flames of {{m|Dragon Rage}}. It can also use the flame on its tail to attack by swinging it about, or wield its small, yet sharp claws to use Slash. However, these attacks are usually weaker than those from the flames Charmander breathes.

===Behavior===
Charmander is easily the most mild-mannered of its evolution line. Its health and emotions can be easily read by paying attention to the flame on the tip of its tail. For example, if the flame grows suddenly, the Charmander is probably angered, and perhaps even using a {{m|Rage}} attack. It is scarce in the wild. Most are domestic Pokémon, raised to be distributed as starters by [[Professor Oak]]. As such, they are regarded as well-behaved Pokémon. It is often regarded as the most difficult Pokémon to start with because it has a disadvantage against the first two [[Gym Leader]]s in [[Kanto]] ([[Brock]] and [[Misty]]).

There are some who choose it anyway under the impression that it is stronger than {{p|Bulbasaur}} or {{p|Squirtle}}. However, while a Charmander can certainly grow to be a very powerful Pokémon, its strength in battle is very closely connected to its condition and health. Therefore, like a real fire, it must be tended to regularly and not strained or neglected. Most Trainers shouldn't have a problem with this, though impatient ones who expect it to be very strong right off the bat will have severe difficulty raising this Pokémon. A Trainer named [[Damian]] in ''[[EP011|Charmander the Stray Pokémon]]'' abandoned his completely because of this. They are also stubbornly loyal. In that same episode, Charmander wouldn't move from the rock, because Damian told it to wait. Ash had to carry it because it refused to move, even in the rain.

===Habitat===
[[File:Mountain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon}}]]
Charmander is rarely found in the wild. Sometimes they can gather in extremely hot areas, such as active volcanoes. They can also thrive in craggy mountains or in rocky, heated crags and caves along the coast of the [[Sevii Islands]]. Their final evolution, {{P|Charizard}}, also inhabits the [[Charicific Valley]] or near mountain chains. However they are found far more often in the ownership of Trainers. It is normally native to [[Kanto]].

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Their diet is the usual omnivorous diet of a Pokémon. The few places where Charmander can be seen in the wild, they usually hunt and gather in small packs, and will call others over if any sort of food is found.

==In the anime==
===Major appearances===
[[File:Charmander_anime.png|thumb|right|200px|Charmander in the anime]]
====[[Ash's Charizard|Ash's Charmander]]====
In ''[[EP011|Charmander the Stray Pokémon]]'', {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} came across a Charmander which had been abandoned by its Trainer, [[Damian]], who only cared about strong Pokémon. At first, Charmander refused to leave the spot it was at, waiting for Damian to return. However, when a rainstorm picked up, Charmander grew ill and Ash took it to a [[Pokémon Center]]. Charmander realized that Damian was no good, and joined up with Ash. It has since evolved into {{p|Charmeleon}}, and then {{AP|Charizard}}.

====[[Zippo|Ritchie's Charmander]]====
[[Ritchie]] owned a Charmander named [[Zippo]], which debuted in ''[[EP078|A Friend In Deed]]''. Sometime before the [[Whirl Islands]] story arc, Zippo evolved into a Charmeleon.

====Other====
In ''[[SS014|Journey to the Starting Line]]'', {{ka|Gilbert}} was intended to start his journey as a [[Pokémon Trainer]], but the trio of Kanto Starter Pokémon were scared off when [[Ash's Tauros]] stampeded through [[Professor Oak]]'s house. Professor Oak, {{Tracey}}, {{Delia}} and Gilbert split up in order to find the three missing Pokémon. The Charmander was the first one to be found.

[[File:Charmandergogotters.png|200px|thumb|Charmander from the Team Go-Getters]]
A Charmander stars in ''[[SS019|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters out of the Gate!]]'' as the leader of [[Team Go-Getters]].

===Minor appearances===
Charmander was mentioned in the first episode of the anime, ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'', as one of the three starter Pokémon new Trainers in Pallet Town can choose from. Ash dreamed of owning one, although it was his last choice of a starter coming after {{p|Squirtle}} and {{p|Bulbasaur}}. However, when he arrived at Oak's lab, he found out it was too late, as another Trainer who started the same day had already taken it.

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

Another Charmander was seen with Professor Oak in ''[[AG071|A Six Pack Attack!]]'' along with a {{p|Bulbasaur}} and {{p|Squirtle}}. Another was seen in ''[[AG133|The Right Place and The Right Mime]]'', along with another {{p|Bulbasaur}} and {{TP|May|Squirtle}}.

==In the manga==
===In the Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
{{main|Ash's Charizard}}
{{Ash}}'s Charmander makes a few appearances in the manga [[Electric Tale of Pikachu|The Electric Tale of Pikachu]].

The capture of Ash's Charmander diverges considerably from the anime. In the manga, [[Damian]] seems to have abandoned his Charmander at the beginning of the chapter ''[[ET07|Pikachu's Excellent Adventure]]'', but it turns out that he had just been injured and went to the hospital.

Ash is shown to own a Charmander despite this, his own Charmander first appears in ''[[ET08|You Gotta Have Friends]]''. Ash's Charmander's capture is not shown in the manga, instead, when Charmander first appears from its [[Poké Ball]], it is simply stated that "Ash has been busy since the last comic".

Ash's Charmander reappears as a {{p|Charizard}} in the chapter ''[[ET13|The Indigo Finals]]'' at the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]]. In this chapter, Charizard battles [[Zippo|Charley]], [[Ritchie]]'s own Charizard.

===In the Magical Pokémon Journey manga===
{{main|Peanut's Charmander}}
In [[Magical Pokémon Journey]], the sickly Trainer [[Peanut]] owns an agressive Charmander. Peanut's Charmander first appears in the chapter ''[[PPP11|Charmander's Peanut]]''.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Blue's Charizard}}
[[File:Blue Charmander Adventures.png|thumb|right|Charmander as it appears in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
Charmander debuted in the first round of the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}, ''[[PS001|A Glimpse of the Glow]]'', as one of {{adv|Blue}}'s first Pokémon, received from his grandfather [[Professor Oak]]. It has since evolved into {{p|Charmeleon}} before facing [[Brock]] of [[Pewter City]], and then to {{p|Charizard}} before the [[Silph Co.]] battles against [[Team Rocket]]. The major powerhouse of his team with its newly learned {{m|Blast Burn}} attack, its battle skills (able to defeat {{adv|Red}}'s [[Poli|Poliwhirl]] easily even before evolving) are complimented by its fast flight, for which it was traded to Red during the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}. It is worth noting that, as Charmeleon, it was accidentally traded to Red many years earlier.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
{{main|Kai Midorikawa's Charizard}}
In the [[Pokémon Pocket Monsters]] manga series, [[Isamu Akai]]'s rival, [[Kai Midorikawa]], chose Charmander as his [[starter Pokémon]]. Kai's Charmander is mischievous and has a rivalry with [[Isamu Akai's Clefairy]].

Kai's Charmander has evolved into {{p|Charizard}}. It seems to be able to skip the {{p|Charmeleon}} stage, as it was seen evolving directly into Charizard. Although it has devolved back to the Charmander stage, it currently seems to have permanently evolved back into Charizard.

===In the Pokémon Zensho manga===
In [[Pokémon Zensho]], {{Zensho|Satoshi}} chooses Charmander as his starter Pokémon, while {{Zensho|Shigeru}} chooses a {{p|Squirtle}}.

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

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* In [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]] Charmander is one of Pikachu's best friends. After falling through the mysterious tunnel, he almost lands into a pool of molten lava only to be saved by the zone leader, {{p|Blaziken}}. He was then taken in as Blaziken's pupil and trained to become stronger. After he's been found, he journeys to the [[Meeting Place]] where he helps {{p|Piplup}} mend the balloon, and makes fireworks. He later accompanies Pikachu to the [[Sky Pavilion]] along with {{p|Piplup}} and {{p|Chikorita}} where he meets {{p|Mew}}. Once the [[Sky Prism]] has been restored, Charmander celebrates by firing off the fireworks he made.

==Trivia==
* Charmander is the first {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon and the first single-type Pokémon in [[National Pokédex]] order.
* In the first generation, on its sprite and [[a:File:004Charmander RG.png|first artwork]], Charmander's "back" is depicted as having a small line of spikes. The spikes were not shown in the sprites and artwork of later [[generation]]s. Charmander also had these spikes in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga, where the spikes were larger and easier to see. The spikes were also seen on [[Kai Midorikawa's Charmander]] from the [[Pokémon Pocket Monsters]] manga.
* Charmander is the tallest Fire-type starter Pokémon.
* Charmander is the only Fire-type starter Pokémon in the {{egg3|Monster}}.
** It is also the only Fire-type starter Pokémon that is based on a reptile.
* In the first generation, Charmander and its evolutionary line are capable of learning {{m|Leer}}. However, in later generations, this move is replaced by {{m|Scary Face}}.
* In Generation IV, Charmander's level-up moveset is the smallest of all starter Pokémon.
* It is possible that Charmander's tail flame may be more resilient than a regular flame, as it has withstood being extinguished by {{t|Ice}}- and {{type|Water}} moves in the games without death. Also, some Pokédex entries state Charmander's tail flame as "producing steam" when it rains, while a flame of the size of Charmander's tail would normally be put out by rain.
**Regarding its flame, its FireRed Pokédex entry states that its life would end if the flame on its tail would go out. However, in the console games, its flame effectively stops burning if Charmander (or its evolutions) is affected by a {{status|freeze}}.
* Along with {{p|Bulbasaur}} and {{p|Squirtle}}, Charmander is the only starter Pokémon which is found in more than one [[regional Pokédex]], being found in both [[List of Pokémon by Johto Pokédex number|Kanto's]] and [[List of Pokémon by Johto Pokédex number|Johto's]].
* Charmander and its evolution family are the only Pokémon who have flames as part of their bodies that do not go out naturally (with the Pokémon still being alive).
* Charmander can learn the move {{m|Metal Claw}} by leveling up in [[Generation III]], exclusively in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, but can only learn it by [[breeding]] in [[Generation IV]] and [[Generation V]].
* Charmander has the longest name of all unevolved [[starter Pokémon]].
* In the film ''{{wp|Austin Powers in Goldmember}}'', in the scene where the 'Godzilla' (Actually Foxxy Cleopatra, Austin and Nigel Powers' Mini trapped within a Godzilla float) moves about destroying everything, an actor in the foreground, wearing a Charmander suit, and another actor, in the background wearing a {{p|Pikachu}} suit, can be seen trying to move away from the ensuing chaos.
** In the US TV show, ''{{wp|Malcolm in the Middle}}'', a Charmander doll can be seen sitting on the bed in some episodes, along with a Squirtle doll.

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Charmander}}
Charmander may have been partially inspired by the {{wp|salamander}}, an amphibian bearing a slender body, short nose, and a long tail; it exhibits other physical lizard-like characteristics. The salamander and Charmander themselves may have been {{wp|Salamander#Mythology and popular culture|inspired}} by the mythological creature of the same name, the {{wp|Salamander (legendary creature)|salamander}}; fire-spirits who survive in extreme heat or flames, sometimes creatively rendered and interpreted to be in the shape of lizards.

====Name origin====
Charmander is a portmanteau of the words ''char'', to burn, and ''{{wp|salamander}}''. ''Hitokage'', on the other hand, comes from 火蜥蜴, which is also salamander. 火 ''hi'' and 蜥蜴 ''tokage'' separately means "fire lizard."

The Riches (Trainer class)

2011-04-21T00:08:30Z

Sludge:

{{incomplete}}
The '''Riches''' (Japanese: '''ブルジョワールけ''' ''Bourgeoir family'') are a family of six that can be battled at [[Undella Town]]. The family consists of Draco, Susan, Clairdonna, Zillion, Trish and Miles. The first trainer to be fought is Draco, who says that he is bored, and asks the player to battle him. After defeating Draco, he asks the player to come back tomorrow to have another battle. After defeating Draco the next day, his sister Susan enters the house and immediately challenges the player. The player can keep coming back to defeat another member of the family each day, until Miles appears on the sixth day.

==Trivia==
* Despite being based on a fish and living in the water, Stunfisk is not of the {{type|Water}}.
** Its Pokédex entries state it can reside in mud as well, despite taking super effective damage from both Ground- and Water-type attacks.
* Stunfisk is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 471.
* Stunfisk has the lowest {{stat|Speed}} of all {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon.
* Stunfisk is the only {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by color|Brown|brown color group}}.
* No other Pokémon has the same [[elemental type|type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Stunfisk.
* Stunfisk is one of four Pokémon immune to one of its own types without the aid of an ability. It shares this trait with {{p|Gligar}}, {{p|Gliscor}} and {{p|Landorus}}.
** Coincidentally, they are all {{type2|Ground}}.
** Of these, Stunfisk is the only one that is not {{2t|Ground|Flying}}.
* Stunfisk is the only non-{{pkmn2|legendary}} {{type|Ground}} Pokémon that is not related to any other Pokémon by evolution.

===Origin===
Stunfisk seems to be based on a {{wp|flounder}} or {{wp|dab (fish)|dab}} combined with an {{wp|electric ray}}. It may also be based on the {{wp|stargazer}}, another fish that spends most of its time buried in the sea bottom and can make electric discharges when disturbed.

====Name origin====
Stunfisk is likely a combination of ''stun'' and ''[[wiktionary:fisk|fisk]]'', the word for "fish" in most Northern European languages (from Old English ''fisk''). The name may also be based off the Tunfisk, the Norweigian word for "tuna." Maggyo name is likely a combination of マッド ''maddo'', mud, and 魚 ''gyo'', fish.

==Trivia==
* Timburr is similar to {{p|Machop}}; both are Fighting-type Pokémon with a base stat total of 305, are the most commonly associated Pokémon with construction sites in their respective regions, and reach their first evolution by level and have their final evolution triggered by [[trade|trading]].
** However, Timburr evolves into Gurdurr at level 25, while Machop evolves into {{p|Machoke}} at level 28.
* In its [[Ken Sugimori]] art, Timburr has a black nose, while in its Black and White sprite it has a brown nose.

===Origin===
Timburr's Pokédex entry supports that it and its evolutions are based on {{wp|construction worker}}s. Due to its clown nose, it may have also been based on a {{wp|Glossary of 'carny' slang|carnie}}.

====Name origin====
Timburr is most likely a corruption of the word ''timber'', in reference to the object which it can be seen holding. Additionally, it may also incorporate the term ''burly'', referencing its strength.

Dokkorā seems to be derived from the Greek word Δοκάρι ''Dokari'', meaning timber.

==Trivia==
* Foongus, along with its evolution, is similar to {{p|Voltorb}} and {{p|Electrode}} in that it resembles a [[Poké Ball]].
** However, unlike Voltorb and Electrode, it only has a Poké Ball design on it, instead of being in the shape of one.
** Likewise, it features the whole design, complete with the circle resembling the button in the middle (contrary to Voltorb's evolution line having just the shape and general colors, and according to the Pokédex, being transformed Poké Balls themselves).
** Like Voltorb and Electrode, Foongus's {{Shiny}} form's coloration is reminiscent of that of the [[Master Ball]]. It shares this trait with {{p|Amoonguss|its evolved form}}.
* Foongus and its evolved form, {{p|Amoonguss}}, share their species name with {{p|Paras}}, {{p|Parasect}}, {{p|Shroomish}}, {{p|Breloom}}. They are all known as Mushroom Pokémon.
** These are also the only Pokémon that can have the ability {{a|Effect Spore}} without having come from the {{pkmn|Dream World}}.
* Despite being based on a mushroom, Foongus and its evolution can learn and use {{m|SolarBeam}} and {{m|Synthesis}}. They share this degree of similarity with {{p|Vileplume}}, who is based on the ''{{wp|rafflesia}}'', which cannot perform photosynthesis, like the mushroom.

===Origin===
It appears to be based on ''{{wp|amanita muscaria}}'' or mushrooms of the ''{{wp|agaricus}}'' genus, due to it being {{type|Poison}}. The cap is designed to look like the front of a Poké Ball.

====Name origin====
Foongus's name is a corruption of ''fungus'' and it along with its evolution's name are a corruption of the phrase ''fungus among us''.

Tamagetake may be derived from 茸 ''take'', {{wp|mushroom}} (or, more specifically, the ''{{wp|Shiitake}}'' mushroom), and 玉 ''tama'', sphere, referencing the design of its cap. Another possible origin is the word 魂消る ''tamageru'', "to be astonished."

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

==History==
[[File:Cilan anime.png|thumb|230px|left|Cilan during a Gym battle]]
Cilan made his debut in ''[[BW005|Triple Leaders, Team Threats!]]'' shopping in his hometown of [[Striaton City]]. Seeing {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Iris|Axew}}, he was intrigued, as Axew itself is rare in Unova, and Pikachu does not appear at all in the region. He invited Iris and Ash to the [[Striaton Gym]], a café run by himself and his brothers [[Chili]] and [[Cress]]. 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 Chili first, with Cilan serving as judge, and then, winning, Ash faces Cress. Finally, Ash faces off against Cilan himself. After a heated battle with Cilan, which carries on to ''[[BW006|Dreams by the Yard Full!]]'', Ash wins and gets the {{badge|Trio}}. Later on in the episode, Cilan decided to join Ash on his journey.

In [[BW019]] it is revealed that Cilan is a Class A [[Pokémon Connoisseur]]. He has also gained a rival in [[Cabernet]], whom he beat as Striaton Gym Leader, inspiring her to train as a Connoisseur and to beat him whenever she can. After her loss at the end of [[BW019]], she leaves, swearing to defeat him in the future.

==Character==
Cilan is an A-class [[Pokémon Connoisseur]] 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. He has proved himself, like {{an|Brock}}, to be a good cook as he makes lunch for the group. Cilan also navigates the group on their journey through use of his [[Town Map]], much like [[Max]], who had a [[PokéNav]], and {{an|Brock}}, who had a [[Pokégear]]. He is also shown to be afraid of the paranormal which has made him a skeptic, preferring to find logical scientific explanations for everything, but when he can't find a logical explanation he is typically the first to flee.

He, like his brothers, tends to speak about Pokémon in relation to their element, in Cilan's case, grass. All the brothers tend to use hand positions like rock, paper, and scissors - Cilan tends to accentuate words with his fingers.

==Trivia==
[[File:Cilan Current Party.png|thumb|240px|right|Cilan's current party]]
* Cilan, 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]].
* Cilan's Connoisseur catchphrase is "Time for the battle to be served!" ("It's Tasting Time!" in the original).
* Cilan is the first of Ash's {{ashfr|male friends}} not to have a traditional Japanese name in the original version of the anime.
** He is also the only one of Ash's male friends who has never displayed an attraction towards a particular female.
* In the games, Cilan can only be battled at the Striaton Gym if the {{player}} chooses {{p|Oshawott}} as their [[starter Pokémon]]. Notably, Ash has obtained {{AP|Oshawott}} from {{prof|Juniper}} as his first out of the Unova starter Pokémon, and has used him in his Gym battle against Cilan.
* Though many of Ash's friends have siblings, Cilan is the only who he and his siblings were a result of a {{wp|multiple birth}}, being Polyzygotic triplets.
* Cilan along with {{Tracey}} are the only two of the main protagonists not to have had their Pokémon taken from them by [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}.
** He is, however, the only one of the main protagonists not to have a Pokémon to at least be attempted to be taken from him by the [[Team Rocket trio]].

==In the anime==
[[File:Winona anime.png|left|thumb|200px|left|Winona in the anime]]
Winona is the Gym Leader of the Fortree City Gym, and was also known as the most talented Flying-type user. She appeared in ''[[AG084|Who's Flying Now?]]'' and ''[[AG085|Sky High Gym Battle]]''.

When {{Ash}} first arrived at Fortree, she was away from the gym in order to help out in the [[Feather Carnival]], an annual festival where the whole city celebrates the Flying Pokémon. After getting scared by {{an|Brock}}'s "usual ways" and chasing [[Team Rocket]] off for trying to steal the {{type2|Flying}}s with her {{p|Skarmory}}, she battled Ash on the next day.

Winona used {{p|Altaria}}, {{p|Pelipper}} and a {{shiny}} {{p|Swellow}} against {{AP|Ash's Grovyle|Sceptile}}, {{AP|Pikachu}} and his own {{AP|Swellow}}. After a long battle, Ash won the Feather Badge from her.

Pelipper then used {{m|Hydro Pump}}, but its wing lost contact with the ground and Pikachu used its mistake to its advantage with a {{m|Thunder}} attack. Both Pelipper and Pikachu were knocked out due to the damage they took.

Pelipper's known moves are {{m|Steel Wing}}, {{m|Quick Attack}}, and {{m|Hydro Pump}}.}}

It defeated Ash's Grovyle easily and almost beat Ash's {{AP|Swellow}}, but with a little quick thinking on Ash's part, his Swellow was victorious, winning Ash the Feather Badge.

Winona's Swellow was the fifth shiny Pokémon to appear in the anime. To date, it is also the only shiny Pokémon owned by a Gym Leader.

Swellow's known moves are {{m|Aerial Ace}}, {{m|Peck}} and {{m|Hyper Beam}}.}}

==In the Pokémon Adventures manga==
[[File:Wallace and Winona.png|thumb|right|225px|Winona and her Altaria (left) with Wallace and his Luvdisc (right)]]
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], Winona is the supervisor of the [[Hoenn]] Gym Leaders, much as [[Erika]] is the leader of the [[Kanto]] Gym Leaders. Her job is to watch over all [[Hoenn]] Gym Leaders to ensure the gyms are running smoothly. She's apparently close to [[Flannery]], as the young [[Gym Leader]]'s judgment is enough to convince her that [[Team Magma]] is the side she should take in the {{pkmn|battle}} between Team Magma and [[Team Aqua]]. Later, she is convinced by [[Wallace]] to renounce her alliance, as both sides are up to no good.

When {{adv|Sapphire}} first battles and loses to Winona, Winona takes her under her wing and trains her. Because of this, Sapphire joins the Gym Leaders' fight against {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}.

She and [[Wallace]] apparently had some sort of [[GracefulShipping|relationship]] in the past, speculated by most fans to have been romantic. Although it is largely unconfirmed whether she still has feelings for him, it is quite obvious that [[Wallace]] still has feelings for her, based on the scene where the two say their goodbyes before they leave to fight {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}} in {{PAV|20}}.

When Wallace attempted to battle [[Maxie]] and [[Archie]] single-handedly, she was held hostage by Archie's {{p|Tentacruel}}.

* Winona is the only [[Gym Leader]] to own a {{shiny}} Pokémon in the {{pkmn|anime}}.

* Winona's level 33 {{p|Altaria}} in the games is [[Level#Underleveled Pokémon|underleveled]]; {{p|Swablu}} do not evolve until level 35.
* Winona's Dragonair knows Earthquake, a move that it can only legitimately learn in the Dragonite stage.

It's amazing what grinding for wild held items can do :D
It only took me 15 minutes all together to find a Fearow holding a Sharp Beak and a Sandslash holding a Soft Sand, it was only a matter of using thief then running away. ;)

And yes, I like to have my HM slave be the same level as my team.

Linoone is actually quite good, despite being my slave.

It's amazing what grinding for wild held items can do :D
It only took me 15 minutes all together to find a Fearow holding a Sharp Beak and a Sandslash holding a Soft Sand, it was only a matter of using thief then running away. ;)

== Teams ==
My gen III teams are from my recent playthroughs of Emerald and LeafGreen.

I'd also like to mention that I've recently transferred my LeafGreen and Emerald teams to my Diamond, which is why they're separated into physical, special, and status moves. :)

Tall grass

Sludge: /* Rustling grass */ Fixed

[[File:Gold explores Route 29.png|thumb|200px|{{ga|Ethan}} and {{p|Cyndaquil}} explore the tall grass on {{rt|29|Johto}}]]
'''Tall grass''' is a mechanic in the Pokémon [[main series]] and the habitat for many species of [[wild Pokémon]]. By entering patches of tall grass, a wild Pokémon may appear and begin to battle the player.

Tall grass is found on most [[routes]] of the [[Pokémon world]], with some routes containing more tall grass patches than others. If the player enters a patch of tall grass, they may randomly enter a wild Pokémon battle. People are warned to stay out of tall grass if they don't have a Pokémon due to the possibility of being attacked by wild Pokémon.

In [[Generation I]] and [[Generation III]], if {{m|Cut}} was used, the grass adjacent to the player would be totally erased; in [[Generation II]], longer grass would be gradually cut shorter before disappearing. The ability to use Cut on grass was removed in [[Generation IV]].

==Technical mechanics==
===Determining the rate of encounter===
The rate of Pokémon encounter is determined from a simple mathematical formula:

<big>''1 in (187.5 / ( x )) per step''</big>

Let ''x'' equal the a value which determines how rare the Pokémon is. The higher the encounter rate, the more common the Pokémon is.

===Poké Radar===
{{main|Poké Radar}}
[[File:PokéRadarShinyFormula.png|thumb|right|The formula for the probability of finding a shiny Pokémon. Nc is the number of Pokémon in the chain, up to 40.]]
The Poké Radar is a device introduced in [[Generation IV]] that is used to seek out [[wild Pokémon]] hiding in long grass. If the Pokémon that is found is [[fainting|knocked out]] or {{pkmn2|caught|captured}} in a [[Poké Ball]], a ''chain'' will begin. These chains consist of multiple members of the same [[Pokémon]] species encountered one after another. The only catch is this: a player must not encounter any Pokémon just by walking through non-wiggling grass, only by walking into the grass that shakes. Therefore, it is recommended that [[Repel]] is used in order to ensure this and achieve a higher chain. Entering the same type of grassy patch the chain was started in that is the farthest away increases the chances of meeting the same kind of Pokémon consecutively. Long chains increase the chance of finding a {{shiny}} Pokémon, which is indicated by the patch of grass glowing white twice rather than shaking.

==Alternative areas==
===Long grass===
[[File:Long grass.png|thumb|175px|Long grass on Route 119]]
Some areas in the [[Pokémon world]] have larger patches of grass than usual. These patches of grass have grown longer and more widespread than the usual grass patches, hiding many different species of Pokémon. Because of the length and thickness of the grass, it is impossible to ride a [[bicycle]] or [[Running Shoes|run]] through the patches in [[Generation III]], but one can run through them in [[Generation IV]]. Some trainers hide in the long grass patches, concealing themselves from view and surprising the player to a battle. Long grass was introduced in [[Generation II]], where it was found in [[Johto]]'s [[National Park]]. In [[Generation III]], it is found on {{rt|119|Hoenn}} and {{rt|120|Hoenn}}, in [[Generation IV]] on {{rt|210|Sinnoh}}, and in [[Generation V]] on {{rt|7|Unova}}.

In Generation V, there is a chance of encountering two wild Pokémon at a time, who will be engaged in a [[double battle]]. Unlike dark grass, long grass can rustle.

===Seaweed===
[[File:Dive Hm Lucas.jpg|thumb|175px|Patch of seaweed]]
Seaweed, found only in [[Generation III]], is located [[underwater]] in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, as an underwater equivalent to tall grass on land. Seaweed can be found while using {{m|Dive}} on dark patches of water on {{rt|124|Hoenn}} and {{rt|126|Hoenn}}. The chance of encountering Pokémon in seaweed is lower than that of tall grass.

===Rustling grass===
{{main|Phenomenon#Rustling grass|Rustling grass}}
Rustling grass is found in [[Generation V]], in virtually any area with patches of tall grass. Occasionally a patch of grass can be seen shaking. Entering such a patch triggers a battle with a wild Pokémon. The Pokémon found in rustling grass differ from route to route, but almost all areas contain {{p|Audino}}. In most areas, it is possible to encounter in rustling grass the evolved forms of Pokémon found in regular grass.

===Dark grass===
This kind of grass was introduced in Generation V. In dark grass, there is a chance of encountering two wild Pokémon at a time, who will be engaged in a [[double battle]]. Pokémon encountered in dark grass are often similar to those found in the normal grass of the route, but not identical. Often Pokémon which are rare in normal grass are more common is dark grass. Patches of dark grass are always separate from patches of normal grass. Dark grass does not rustle.

==In battle==
{{incomplete|section|Needs the appearance of Secret Power in Generation V}}
In Generation III, tall grass gives {{m|Secret Power}} a 30% chance of {{status|poison}}ing its target and gives it the appearance of {{m|Needle Arm}}; it causes {{m|Nature Power}} to become {{m|Stun Spore}}. Long grass gives {{m|Secret Power}} a 30% chance of putting its target to {{status|sleep}} and gives it the appearance of {{m|Magical Leaf}}; it causes {{m|Nature Power}} to become {{m|Stun Spore}}. Seaweed gives {{m|Secret Power}} a 30% chance of lowering its target's {{stat|Defense}} and gives it the appearance of {{m|Waterfall}}; it causes {{m|Nature Power}} to become {{m|Hydro Pump}}.

In Generation IV, tall grass gives {{m|Secret Power}} a 30% chance of putting its target to {{status|sleep}} and gives it the appearance of {{m|Needle Arm}}; it causes {{m|Nature Power}} to become {{m|Seed Bomb}}.

In Generation V, tall grass gives {{m|Secret Power}} a 30% chance of putting its target to {{status|sleep}}; it causes {{m|Nature Power}} to become {{m|Seed Bomb}}.

{{m|Camouflage}} makes the user {{type|Grass}} when used in grass, and {{type|Water}} when used in seaweed.

Pseudo-legendary Pokémon

2011-04-16T00:10:03Z

Sludge: Please do not add unnecessary trivia due to the server load.

{{move|Pseudo-legendary Pokémon}}
'''Pseudo-legendary''' is a fan term commonly used to refer to any Pokémon that has a three-stage [[evolution]] line, two [[Elemental type|type]]s, as well as a [[base stats|base stat total]] of 600. The term originates from the Greek prefix ''pseudo-'', which means "false". Pseudo-legendary Pokémon are often more powerful than other non-legendary Pokémon, possibly due to their high [[base stat]]s. All pseudo-legendary Pokémon have {{stat|Attack}} or {{stat|Special Attack}} as their highest stat.

==List of pseudo-legendary Pokémon==
There are six Pokémon considered to be pseudo-legendary. The following shows the pseudo-legendary Pokémon by the Generation of their introduction, as well as their types, and the Pokémon they evolve from.

==Characteristics==
With the exception of the {{p|Garchomp}} and {{p|Hydreigon}} evolutionary lines, pseudo-legendary Pokémon are usually situated adjacent to the [[legendary trio]]s in the [[Pokédex]]es of their respective [[Generation]]s. In both the [[National Pokédex]] and [[List of Pokémon by Johto Pokédex number|Johto Pokédex]], the evolutionary lines of {{p|Dragonite}} and {{p|Tyranitar}} are located just after the [[legendary trio]] of their respective Generation (they are located next to each other in the Johto Pokédex). Similarly, the {{p|Salamence}} and {{p|Metagross}} lines are located next to each other right before the [[legendary golems]] in both the National Pokédex and [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number|Hoenn Pokédex]]. Oddly, this tradition was not upheld in [[Generation IV]], as the {{p|Garchomp}} [[evolution]] line is situated next to no notable Pokémon. In [[Generation V]], the {{p|Hydreigon}} line is located next to the {{p|Volcarona}} line, who are adjacent to the legendary Pokémon.

===Individual Characteristics===
====Dragonite====
Aside from being the first pseudo-legendary in [[National Pokédex]] order, Dragonite has the highest Special Defense tied with Tyranitar.

====Tyranitar====
Tyranitar is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that can neither fly nor levitate, as well as the slowest of the pseudo-legendary Pokémon. When a {{weather|sandstorm}} is raging, Tyranitar's {{stat|Special Defense}} becomes the highest of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon.

====Salamence====
Physically, Salamence is the shortest pseudo-legendary. Salamence has the lowest defenses of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon. However, it has the highest Attack (tied with Metagross).

====Metagross====
Metagross shares a large number of different characteristics from the other pseudo-legendary Pokémon. This is likely due to how it is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that does not appear to be based on a reptile; rather, it is a robotic life form. This is likely why Metagross is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon not to be used by [[Lance]] in any game (aside from Hydreigon, as Lance has not yet appeared in a game since its introduction), as he prefers {{type2|Dragon}} and draconic Pokémon.

Metagross is the only genderless pseudo-legendary Pokémon, and the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon whose first stage of evolution, {{p|Beldum}}, cannot be caught in the wild in its debut generation (one is received from [[Steven Stone]] instead). Metagross and its pre-evolutions have a [[catch rate]] of 3 (all the other pseudo-legendary Pokémon families have a catch rate of 45), and it has the highest base Defense of all the pseudo-legendary Pokémon.

====Garchomp====
Garchomp is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon to have [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|gender differences]], as well as having the fewest resistances. It is the fastest with a base {{stat|Speed}} stat of 102 and has the highest base {{stat|HP}}, with 108. It is also the lightest pseudo-legendary.

====Hydreigon====
Due to being the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon to have a higher {{stat|Special Attack}} stat than {{stat|Attack}}, Hydreigon's stats give it a number of unique characteristics from the other pseudo-legendary Pokémon. Consequently, it has the highest base Special Attack of all the pseudo-legendary Pokémon, and likewise, the lowest base Attack of all the pseudo-legendary Pokémon. Similarly, it is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that does not have a base stat over 125, but it is also the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that does not have a base stat under 90. It is also the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon of the {{t|Dragon}} type for which Dragon is its secondary type rather than it's primary type.

Hydreigon is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon with multiple elemental immunities (however its immunity to {{t|Ground}} is due to its ability, {{a|Levitate}}). Of the {{type2|Dragon}} pseudo-legendary Pokémon, it is the only one not to have a 4× weaknesses to {{type2|Ice}} attacks and as of {{v2|Black and White|s}}, the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon to have never been used by a {{pkmn|Champion}}. However, it is used by [[Ghetsis]], the last trainer the player battles in the main storyline in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|Pokémon Black and White]].

====Other====
* Tyranitar and Hydreigon are the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that have a [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|unique type combination]].
* {{p|Metagross}} and Hydreigon are the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that do not have any 4× weaknesses.
* Salamence and Metagross have the highest {{stat|Attack}} of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon with a base 135 stat.
* Tyranitar and Metagross are the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that are not Dragon-type.

==In the games==
These Pokémon are used in-game often by the members of the [[Elite Four]] and {{pkmn|Champion}}s. {{p|Dragonite}} is used by [[Lance]], the final Elite Four member in [[Generation I]] and {{v2|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}; it is used again by Lance as the Champion in [[Generation II]] and {{v2|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. In HeartGold and SoulSilver, Lance uses a {{p|Dragonite}}, but when he is battled again, he replaces two of his three Dragonite with the two other {{type2|Dragon}} pseudo-legendary Pokémon, {{p|Salamence}} and {{p|Garchomp}}. {{p|Tyranitar}} is also used by Lance in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]] (both Round 1 and 2), as well as by {{ga|Blue}}, the Champion, but only in the second round of the Elite Four in FireRed and LeafGreen. {{p|Salamence}} is used by {{EF|Drake}}, the final Elite Four member in {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}. {{p|Metagross}} is used by [[Steven Stone]], the Champion in Ruby and Sapphire, and ex-Champion in {{v2|Emerald}}. {{p|Garchomp}} is used by [[Cynthia]], the Champion in {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}. {{p|Hydreigon}} is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon to have not been used by a {{pkmn|Champion}}; however, it is used by [[Ghetsis]], who serves as the final boss in the Unova games.

Although pseudo-legendary Pokémon are used almost exclusively by the final members of the [[Elite Four]] and {{pkmn|Champion}}s, there are three minor exceptions in {{3v|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}: [[Ace Trainer]] Felix on {{rt|229|Sinnoh}} uses {{p|Salamence}}, and [[Ace Trainer]] Jamie on {{rt|224|Sinnoh}} has {{p|Metagross}}, serving as cameo appearances for the movie characters [[Butler]] and {{mov|Rebecca}}, who used these pseudo-legendary Pokémon in their respective {{pkmn|movie}}s. [[Dragon Tamer]] Darien, who is located outside of [[Stark Mountain]], uses a Dragonite, but is not related to any movies.

Pseudo-legendary Pokémon are obtainable in the wild strictly in their first form for the first two games of their Generation. However, {{p|Dragonair}} is obtainable in the wild in most games where {{p|Dratini}} is (all but {{3v2|Red|Green|Blue}}). Likewise, {{p|Pupitar}} is available in the wild in {{v2|Crystal}} and {{v2|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. {{p|Gabite}} is also found in {{si|Victory Road}} in {{v2|Platinum}}. {{p|Metang}} and {{p|Shelgon}} can also be found in the {{jo|Safari Zone}} in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}. In {{game|Black and White|s}}, {{p|Larvitar}}, {{p|Beldum}}, {{p|Shelgon}}, {{p|Salamence}}, the entire {{p|Garchomp}} line, {{p|Zweilous}} and {{p|Hydreigon}} are the only stages that cannot be caught in the wild. For the first time, final stages of pseudo-legendary Pokémon can be caught in the wild.

===[[Pokémon Colosseum]]===
In story mode, {{pkmn2|Shadow}} {{p|Metagross}} is used by [[Nascour]] and Shadow {{p|Tyranitar}} is used by [[Evice]]; it is notable that the two [[Cipher]] leaders have positions comparable to those of the final [[Elite Four]] member and {{pkmn|Champion}}, respectively. {{Pokémon XD}} complemented the list of pseudo-legendaries as of [[Generation III]] by featuring Shadow {{p|Salamence}} (used by [[Eldes]]) and Shadow {{p|Dragonite}} (used by [[Miror B.]]). Another commonality is that all four pseudo-legendary Pokémon have {{m|Shadow Rush}} as one of their Shadow moves.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Cynthia Garchomp.png|thumb|right|200px|[[Cynthia's Garchomp]] in the anime]]
All pseudo-legendary Pokémon except {{p|Hydreigon}} have appeared in the anime.
* {{p|Dragonite}} debuted [[Giant Pokémon|as a silhouette]] in ''[[EP013|Mystery at the Lighthouse]]'', but appeared physically in ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''.
** Dragonite has also appeared {{TP|Drake|belonging to Drake|Dragonite}} and {{TP|Lance|to Lance|Dragonite}}, who are both regional {{pkmn|Champion}}s.
** {{p|Dratini}} debuted in ''[[EP035|Legend of Dratini]]'', along with {{p|Dragonair}}.
* {{TP|Vicious|Tyranitar}} debuted in ''[[M04|Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]''.
* {{p|Salamence}} debuted in ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''.
* {{p|Metagross}} debuted in ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]''.
* {{TP|Cynthia|Garchomp}} debuted in ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training!]]'', belonging to [[Cynthia]].
** Cynthia's Garchomp also appeared in the opening of ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', meaning that all pseudo-legendary Pokémon except Hydreigon have also appeared in a movie.

==Trivia==
* [[Generation III]] is the only generation so far to have introduced more than one pseudo-legendary Pokémon.
* All pseudo-legendary Pokémon that existed at the time were available as [[Shadow Pokémon]] in either [[Pokémon Colosseum]] (Tyranitar and Metagross) or {{Pokémon XD}} (Dragonite and Salamence).
* Among Pokémon commonly mistaken for pseudo-legendaries are {{p|Slaking}}, {{p|Flygon}}, {{p|Aggron}}, {{p|Volcarona}}, and {{p|Haxorus}}. For one reason or another, these Pokémon do not fit the criteria of those above and so are not pseudo-legendaries.
** {{p|Slaking}}, though not a pseudo-legendary, has the highest base stats of all non-legendary Pokémon and one immunity, to the Ghost-type. However, it lacks some factors: a base-stat total of 600 and a secondary type. Slaking is also hindered by its ability, {{a|Truant}}, which is likely the reason for its high stats.
* Ash is the first main character in the anime to own [[Ash's Gible|a member]] of a pseudo-legendary family; however, it could be considered his second if {{AP|Larvitar}} is counted, but he only owned it temporarily.
* In Generation IV, the first stage of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon are available in the [[Johto Safari Zone]].
* {{p|Metagross}} is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon that cannot learn any {{type|Dragon}} moves.
* All of the pseudo-legendary Pokémon are at least partly blue in one or more of their forms.

'''Torchic''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''アチャモ''' ''Achamo'') is a {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Combusken}} starting at [[level]] 16, who evolves into {{p|Blaziken}} starting at [[level]] 36.

Along with {{p|Treecko}} and {{p|Mudkip}}, it is one of three [[starter Pokémon]] players can choose from at the beginning of {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}.

It is also available in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, after obtaining all sixteen [[badge]]s and defeating {{ga|Red}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Torchic is a small baby bird that is covered in orange and yellow downy feathers. Its wings are underdeveloped and are almost useless aside from keeping the Pokémon warm. Its legs and feet however are well developed for running and scratching. It also has a crest on its head which vaguely resembles a flame. It also possess a flame sac much like other fire Pokémon: {{p|Vulpix}} and {{p|Flareon}}.
====Gender differences====
Male Torchic has a very small black speck on their rears. Females do not have this mark.

===Special abilities===
Like many {{type2|Fire}}s, Torchic is able to breathe fire from its beak.

===Behavior===
Being a young Pokémon, Torchic is naturally curious and is very inquisitive about things. Thus, it needs someone to guide it and to train them. They will follow its trainer with unsteady steps. Individual personalities range from meek to headstrong. Torchic apparently doesn't like the dark because it cannot see what is in front of it.

===Habitat===
[[File:Grassland.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon}}]]
Torchic is rare in the wild, and is most likely to be found under the possession of Trainers that choose it as a starter. However, in the wild it is most likely to be found in [[Hoenn]].

{{Ash}}, [[Max]] and {{an|Brock}} were given the task of watching over a trio of [[Hoenn]] [[starter Pokémon]] for [[Nurse Joy]] while May was practicing with her {{TP|May|Beautifly}} in ''[[AG034|Having a Wailord of a Time]]''. The Torchic of that three managed to evolve and had to be hidden.

==Trivia==
[[Image:Torchic Beta.jpg|300px|right|thumb|Pre-alpha sketch]]
* A pre-alpha sketch from before {{game|Ruby and Sapphire}} were released portrays a different Torchic with large floppy ears and a flame-shaped marking on the back of its head.
* Torchic is the only starter Pokémon available in the wild, being found on the [[Pokéwalker]] course {{pw|Sightseeing}}, along with {{p|Pikachu}}.
** Prior to {{game|Platinum}}, it was also the only starter allowed in [[Amity Square]], along with Pikachu.
* Torchic is the first starter Pokémon based on a bird, the second being {{p|Piplup}}. Coincidentally, neither evolve into a Flying-type, as both are based on flightless birds.
* Torchic has the lightest weight of all the basic forms of the {{pkmn2|starter}}s.
* Even though Torchic has no arms, it is able to learn {{m|Mega Punch}} by tutoring in {{game|Emerald}}. This is likely because its evolutions have arms.
* Torchic is the only first stage of a [[starter Pokémon]] that has a [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|gender difference]] (though its own is very easily missed, being only a one-pixel difference), excluding {{p|Pikachu}}.
** It also is in the only [[starter Pokémon]] evolutionary line in which all members have gender differences.
** Torchic, {{p|Buizel}}, and {{p|Floatzel}} are also the only Pokémon to have the difference shown only on their back sprites.
* As of [[Generation V]], Torchic and {{p|Combusken}} are the only non-Flying-type Pokémon to learn {{m|Mirror Move}} by leveling up. This trait was shared with final evolved, {{p|Blaziken}} in [[Generation III]].
**However, both Torchic and Combusken are both based on birds, so this makes sense.
* With {{p|Tepig}}, Torchic is the slowest of all the Fire-type starters, with a base speed of only 45.
* Although Torchic is clearly based on a bird, it is not in the {{egg|Flying}} egg group. It shares this trait with {{p|Delibird}}, {{p|Piplup}} and {{p|Prinplup|its}} {{p|Empoleon|evolutions}}.
** Coincidentally, Torchic and {{p|Piplup}} are [[starter Pokémon]].
*Torchic is the only Fire-type starter that Ash has never owned.
* In [[Generation V]], Torchic learns a new move every 3 levels, then every 6 levels. 10, 16, 19, 25, etc.

===Origin===
It appears to have been based on a {{wp|chicken}} hatchling. Torchic may also be based on the {{wp|basan}}, a legendary fire-breathing chicken.
====Name origin====
Torchic's name is likely a combination of ''{{wp|torch}}'' and ''chick''.

''Achamo'' is a combination of 赤子 ''akago'', baby, and 軍鶏 ''{{wp|Shamo (chicken)|shamo}}'', a breed of Japanese chicken once raised for fighting.

Princess Salvia

[[File:Salvia.png|thumb|250px|Princess Salvia]]
'''Princess Salvia''' (Japanese: '''サルビア王女''' ''Princess Salvia'') is a [[character of the day]] in ''[[DP171|Dawn of a Royal Day!]]''.

She is a [[doppelgänger]] of {{an|Dawn}}, only differing in appearance by her hairstyle, clothing, and voice. Wishing to escape from her royal duties and compete in a [[Pokémon Contest]] after all her hard training with Togekiss, the princess swapped identities with Dawn.

Using her {{TP|Dawn|Togekiss}}, Salvia won against [[Jessie|Jessilina]] in the final round and earned the [[Arrowroot Town]] [[Ribbon]]. Out of kindness, she gave the Ribbon she won to [[Jessie|Jessilina]] rather than keeping it for herself. She also gave her Togekiss to Dawn so that it could compete in more Contests.

She appeared in a flashback in ''[[DP172|With the Easiest of Grace!]]'' and briefly appeared in ''[[DP177|A Grand Fight for Winning!]]'' watching the [[Sinnoh Grand Festival]] Final Round on television.

==Trivia==
* Princess Salvia is the second known person to win an official {{pkmn|Contest}} on the first attempt. The first person to do so was [[James]].
** Coincidentally both Coordinators gave their Ribbons to [[Jessie]] and were disguised as other people.
* Before the airing of ''[[DP171|Dawn of a Royal Day!]]'', she was stated to be named '''Princess Iris''' (アイリス王女) by official sources, indicating that "Salvia" could have been a last-minute name change.
** Coincidentally, Ash's next female traveling companion after {{an|Dawn}} is {{an|Iris}}.
*Her name comes from {{wp|Salvia}}, a genus of plants in the {{wp|Mentha|mint}} family.

'''Ash's Infernape''' (Japanese: '''サトシのゴウカザル''' ''Satoshi's Goukazaru'') is a Pokémon owned by {{Ash}}. It was initially owned by [[Paul]] as a Chimchar but joined Ash's team after being released in ''[[DP051|Glory Blaze!]]''.

==History==
[[Image:PaulChimchar.png|thumb|left|200px|As a {{p|Chimchar}}, while under Paul's command]]
===With Paul===
Infernape was once a Chimchar owned by Paul. Prior to events of the Diamond and Pearl series, Paul saw Chimchar being chased by a group of {{p|Zangoose}}. The situation looked bad for Chimchar but in its stress it pulled off an extremely powerful {{m|Flame Wheel}}. This impressed Paul enough to add Chimchar to his regular team. However, this first impression did not match up to Chimchar's normal abilities and so Paul regularly criticized it for being weak. After this incident, Chimchar had a morbid fear of all {{p|Zangoose}}.

Chimchar's first episode was ''[[DP003|When Pokémon Worlds Collide]]'' where Paul used it to battle {{TP|Dawn|Ash's Aipom|Ambipom}}. It fought well but lost in the end. Chimchar reappeared in ''[[DP006|Different Strokes for Different Blokes]]'' where it won against [[Ash's Turtwig]] and ''[[DP015|Shapes of Things to Come!]]'' where it beat [[Roark]]'s {{p|Onix}} but lost to Roark's {{TP|Roark|Cranidos|Rampardos}}.

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 [[Hearthome City Tag Battle Competition]] where he was forced to battle alongside Ash. That night, Ash discovered Paul's training regime, which involved his Pokémon attacking Chimchar in the hopes of recreating the power he had seen before. Ash intervened and took Chimchar to the Pokémon Center where Nurse Joy told Paul it would be unable to battle. However, Paul ignored this warning.

During the next battle against a Zangoose and a {{p|Metagross}}, Chimchar was too scared to make any attack when caught in Zangoose's claws and had to be saved by Turtwig, who was then seriously injured through Chimchar following Paul's orders. Chimchar made up for this by protecting Turtwig from a {{m|Fire Blast}} attack. Furious at it, Paul refused to give any orders and he simply turned away. Shocked by this, Ash gave Chimchar commands to get them out of the situation before finishing the battle with Turtwig. After the battle, Paul released Chimchar in front of Ash, who then invited it to join him.

===With Ash===

In the final round of the competition, Paul and Ash selected {{TP|Paul|Elekid|Electivire}} and Chimchar for their last battle in ''[[DP052|Smells Like Team Spirit!]]'' against [[Conway]]'s {{p|Heracross}} and {{TP|Ash|Dawn's Buizel|Buizel}}. During the battle, Elekid evolved into Electabuzz and they both combined {{m|Thunder}} and Flamethrower on Buizel and Heracross to knock them out. This victory meant that Ash and Paul won the Hearthome City Tag Battle Tournament.

In ''[[DP053|Tears For Fears!]]'', Ash and his friends had a picnic party. Chimchar watched the Pokémon having fun and it kept having flashbacks of when it was still in Paul's possession reflecting on how its former Trainer treated it as opposed to how Ash does, after which it cried tears of joy as it was finally treated with patience and kindness by Ash and {{Ashfr|his friends}}, something Paul failed to do as its trainer. In the same episode, Chimchar overcame its morbid fear of Zangoose stated above.

In ''[[DP068|A Triple Fighting Chance!]]'' Ash used Chimchar in his Gym Battle against the [[Veilstone City]] [[Gym Leader]], [[Maylene]]. Chimchar battled {{p|Meditite}}, but was recalled after Meditite confused it. It was then sent out against {{TP|Maylene|Lucario}} where it fought bravely and caused some damage before being defeated.

In ''[[DP081|Chim - Charred!]]'', Ash and co. came across Paul. Ash and Paul had an enormous argument at which point an enraged Ash challenged Paul to a battle. Chimchar volunteered to go up against Paul and faced [[Paul's Ursaring]]. Ursaring and Paul used brutal tactics and Chimchar was pushed to the point of using {{a|Blaze}}. Chimchar easily defeated Ursaring, but went on an uncontrollable rampage. Ash ran up to Chimchar and grabbed it, begging it to stop. Chimchar continued to struggle, biting Ash at one point. Eventually it was embraced by Ash and Chimchar calmed down.

Later in ''[[DP097|Double Team Turnover!]]'', when battling [[Team Galactic]], Chimchar protected Pikachu from a {{m|Poison Jab}} launched by [[Saturn's Toxicroak]]. Chimchar was incapacitated for the rest of the fight and was later thanked by Ash (after receiving medical treatment). [[Cynthia]] then comforted Chimchar about its past with Paul.
[[Image:Ash Monferno.png|right|thumb|250px|As a Monferno]]
Ash later used Chimchar to battle against {{an|Barry}} in ''[[DP101|Barry's Busting Out All Over!]]''. Chimchar easily defeated Barry's {{p|Staraptor}} using its superior agility. But, despite the type advantage, Chimchar lost to Barry's {{p|Roserade}}.

In ''[[DP102|Shield with a Twist!]]'', using Ash's counter-shield strategy, Chimchar defeated [[Fantina]]'s {{p|Mismagius}} and [[Fantina's Drifblim|Drifblim]], earning Ash his {{Badge|Relic}}.

In ''[[DP108|Dealing With Defensive Types!]]'', it was used in the battle against [[Byron's Bastiodon]], {{p|Bronzor}} and {{p|Steelix}}. It defeated Bronzor and Steelix, but eventually fell to Bastiodon. This mirrors {{AP|Staravia}}'s previous participation in the [[DP068|third gym]], with it defeating the gym leader's first two Pokémon and losing to their third.

In ''[[DP127|Sliding Into Seventh!]]'', it was used in the Snowpoint Gym battle. Chimchar battled [[Candice]]'s {{p|Snover}} and {{DL|Candice|Abomasnow}} and despite a harsh battle with Abomasnow, it defeated both of them, earning Ash his {{Badge|Icicle}}.

In ''[[DP132|Evolving Strategies!]]'', Chimchar was used in the full battle Ash had against Paul. It defeated [[Paul's Ursaring]], which had previously taken down three of Ash's Pokémon, and evolved soon after into a {{p|Monferno}} and immediately learned {{m|Mach Punch}}. During the following battle against [[Paul's Electivire|Paul's Electabuzz]], it put up a close fight but was defeated and badly injured, resulting in a loss for Ash.

In ''[[DP133|Uncrushing Defeat!]]'', Monferno, along with the rest of Ash's Pokémon, was badly injured. It needed a [[Cheri Berry]] to help treat it but the [[Pokémon Center]] didn't have one. After {{an|Brock}} got one by [[Lake Acuity]], it became better. It eventually attacked [[Team Rocket]] in combination with Ash's other Pokémon.

In ''[[DP147|Bagged Then Tagged!]]'', it was used in a [[tag battle]] with Dawn against {{an|Lyra}} and [[Khoury]]. Monferno used {{m|Flamethrower}} on [[Dawn's Cyndaquil]]'s {{m|Flame Wheel}} to defeat Lyra's {{p|Chikorita}} and defeated Khoury's newly evolved {{p|Croconaw}} with a {{m|Mach Punch}}.
[[File:Ash Infernape Blaze.png|left|thumb|250px|Infernape's ability activated]]
In ''[[DP163|Fighting Ire with Fire!]]'', Monferno battled [[Barry's Empoleon]]. After being struck by a {{m|Hydro Cannon}} and sent crashing into the forest nearby, Monferno entered once again into an uncontrollable rampage with {{a|Blaze}}, but managed to control it in the last second in order to save [[Ash's Pikachu]], [[Dawn's Piplup]], [[Paul's Electabuzz]] and Barry's Empoleon from [[Team Rocket]]'s falling [[Team Rocket's mechas|mecha]], evolving into an {{p|Infernape}} in the process.

In ''[[DP165|Flint Sparks the Fire!]]'', Ash used Infernape in a battle against {{OBP|Flint|Elite Four}}'s Infernape, however despite its power and speed it was unable to keep up with Flint's Infernape and was quickly knocked out with a Mach Punch.

In ''[[DP179|The Eighth Wonder of the Sinnoh World!]]'', Infernape participated in Ash's rematch against [[Volkner]]. It defeated Volkner's {{p|Jolteon}} with a Mach Punch. When it battled Volkner's {{p|Luxray}}, it took severe damage, pushing it to activate Blaze. This time, however, Infernape was able to control itself and defeat Luxray with a powerful Flame Wheel, giving Ash the victory and the {{badge|Beacon}}.

Before the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]], Ash decided he would need help from his previously caught Pokémon. Due to this, Infernape, along with Ash's Sinnoh party (save for {{AP|Staraptor}}) were all sent to Professor Oak's Laboratory. [[DP185|Later]] during the tournament Ash recalled Infernape to his team and trained against {{an|Brock}}'s {{TP|Brock|Sudowoodo}} to improve {{m|Flame Wheel}} when Infernape suddenly learned {{m|Flare Blitz}} which was so powerful it became blue rather than the ordinary red-orange flames.

Infernape was later used in [[DP186|the full battle]] against Paul's {{p|Aggron}}, where it managed to burn Aggron with {{m|Flare Blitz}} before finally defeating it with {{m|Mach Punch}}. Ash decided to recall it when Paul sent out his {{p|Gastrodon}}. [[DP187|Later on]] it was sent out again to battle Paul's {{p|Ninjask}}. Ninjask's {{m|Agility}} was getting the better of it so Ash told it to use {{m|Dig}} then {{m|Flare Blitz}} which heated up the field, causing fire to erupt out of the ground, which made a mist cover the whole field that damaged Ninjask and also canceled Drapion's {{m|Toxic Spikes}} attack. After putting up a good fight, Infernape was able to defeat Ninjask with a powerful {{m|Mach Punch}}, knocking it out in a single hit. Infernape battled [[Paul's Electivire]] in a heated battle in ''[[DP188|Battling a Thaw in Relations!]]'' where Blaze was once again activated, giving Infernape the strength to defeat the Thunderbolt Pokémon.

It is assumed that Ash left Infernape at [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]] when he decided to go to [[Unova]].

* '''[[Counter Shield]]''' was used in ''[[DP102|Shield With a Twist!]]'' and ''[[DP132|Evolving Strategies!]]''. Chimchar/Monferno uses {{m|Flamethrower}} after using {{m|Flame Wheel}}, releasing fire whips everywhere.
* '''Underground Flare Blitz''' was used in a battle against [[Paul]] at the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]] in ''[[DP187|A Real Rival Rouser!]]''. Infernape used {{m|Dig}}, and then while underground used {{m|Flare Blitz}}, causing the entire field to heat up and fire to burst from the ground. This canceled the effects of Drapion's {{m|Toxic Spikes}} and also damaged Ninjask.

As a Monferno, Ash's Infernape appeared in the manga adaptation of the [[Pokémon movie]] {{ma|Arceus and the Jewel of Life}}.

==Trivia==
* This is Ash's third primate-based [[Pokémon]], the others being {{AP|Primeape}} and {{TP|Dawn|Aipom|Ambipom}}. Unlike the other two, however, Infernape has not stolen [[Ash's hat]], and actually evolved under his care and hasn't been put in training.
* For ''[[DP067|Crossing the Battle Line!]]'', [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Ash's Chimchar.
* Infernape as a Monferno was first revealed in a Japanese movie poster for ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''.
* When Infernape evolved from a {{p|Chimchar}} to a {{p|Monferno}}, it became the first time Ash had two evolved forms of [[starter Pokémon]] from the same region on hand.
* Monferno's evolution into Infernape was revealed in the Japanese opening ''[[The Greatest - Everyday!]]''.
* Infernape is Ash's third Pokémon to [[evolution|evolve]] while battling against [[Paul]], the others being {{AP|Torterra}} and {{AP|Staraptor}}.
* Infernape is Ash's first {{type2|Fighting}} Pokémon to evolve under his care and only his third one overall. It is also Ash's first primate-based Pokémon to evolve in his care as Ambipom evolved under Dawn's care while Primeape evolved before it was caught.
* Infernape is Ash's second fully evolved fire starter, the first being {{AP|Charizard}}. Coincidentally, Infernape shares many qualities with Charizard.
** Both previously belonged to harsh trainers when they were in their base forms and their former trainers dubbed them weak and released them.
** Both have evolved to both their first stage and then their second stage forms in between gym battles: the previous one being one where they gain Ash the win in their base form and the next one where they help Ash win in their fully evolved forms.
** However, unlike Charizard, excluding when it had lost control of Blaze, Infernape has been obedient to Ash through all three of its forms.
* Infernape is Ash's third starter Pokémon to use its ability in a Gym battle, the first being [[Ash's Pikachu]] and second being [[Ash's Sceptile]].
* Out of all the Pokémon on-screen in the anime, Ash's Infernape has activated its [[ability]] the most number of times: a total of ''five'' times.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Bisharp and its {{p|Pawniard|pre-evolution}}.
** The types it has are also the two types that were introduced in [[Generation II]].
** This makes Bisharp and its pre-evolution the only Pokémon to have a double resistance to {{t|Ghost}}.
* {{p|Pawniard}} and Bisharp cannot learn any [[special move]]s by [[level]]ing up or {{pkmn|breeding}}.
* Bisharp shares several similarities with {{p|Gallade}}. Both have warrior-esque designs (that prominently feature arm-blades and helmets), both have the same height (5'03").
* Pawniard and Bisharp are the only Pokémon that can have {{a|Defiant}} as a non-Hidden Abillity.

===Origin===
It looks similar to a {{wp|knight}} and may be based on Arthurian legends of {{wp|black knight}}s. It may also have gained origin from the Kaijin style of Japanese monster movies, involving a humanoid creature that acts as a villain. There is also a resemblance to the ''{{wp|Super Sentai}}'' (and by extension, ''{{wp|Power Rangers}}'') and ''{{wp|Kamen Rider series| Kamen Rider}}'' series' suited heroes. It also bears similarities to the ''{{wp|Ultra Series#The_Ultra-Crusaders|Ultra Crusaders}}'' of the ''{{wp|Ultra Series}}''.

====Name origin====
Bisharp is a combination of ''[[wp:Bishop (chess)|bishop]]'', keeping with the {{wp|chess}} theme in its evolutionary line, and ''sharp'', describing its metal blades. Fittingly enough, if a [[wp:Pawn (chess)|pawn]] reaches the end of the opponent's side of the board, the player can choose to "[[wp:Promotion (chess)#Promotion to rook or bishop|promote]]" it to either a [[wp:Rook (chess)|rook]], [[wp:Knight (chess)|knight]], bishop, or [[wp:Queen (chess)|queen]], similar to how Pawniard evolves into Bisharp. Furthermore, it may also derive from ''bisect'', which means "to cut or split into two", referencing the lethality of Bisharp's cutting abilities.

''Kirikizan'' is probably derived from 切り刻む　''kirikizamu'', to mince, and 斬 ''zan'', to cut or slay.

N's Castle

Sludge: /* Trainers */ Updated with English names.

(Japanese: '''{{tt|Ｎの城|Ｎのしろ}}''' ''N's Castle'') is the location where {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|Bl}} or {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|W}} can be caught. It is [[Team Plasma]]'s main building, and is owned by [[N]].

==In the games==
{{spoiler}}
[[File:NsCastleRise.png|256px|right|thumb|N's Castle rising behind the {{pkmn|Champion}}'s room]]
After defeating the [[Elite Four]], this castle rises from the ground and attaches itself to the {{un|Pokémon League}} building. As the {{player}} enters the first floor, the player is stopped by six of the [[Seven Sages]], who attempt to stop him or her. However, the [[Gym Leaders]] of Unova (with the exception of [[Cilan]], [[Chili]], and [[Cress]]) intercept the surprise attack, allowing the player to continue.

On the second floor, a member of the [[Shadow Triad]] directs the player to a room where two women await him or her, introducing themselves as the [[Goddesses of Peace and Love]]. The Goddess of Love heals the player's party and the Goddess of Peace tells the player about [[N]]'s childhood. A room on the third floor contains a [[PC]] that will allow the player to rearrange the party as well. {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s are scattered about the other rooms, however, they will not fight, celebrating victory, or saying goodbye to their Pokémon. One of these Grunts will allow the player to return to the Pokémon League to restock or train. N's room from his childhood is on the fourth floor.

Right before the final battle with N, the legendary mascot of either [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|Pokémon Black or Pokémon White]] emerges. The respective legendary Pokémon can now be caught, and if there is space in the party, the legendary Pokémon will be used in the battle against N, where it is also first in the party. Otherwise, it is possible to swap the legendary Pokémon from the PC to the party.

During the battle with [[N]], he will use the legendary Pokémon opposite of the game's mascot.

After defeating N, the player must battle [[Ghetsis]], who reveals that he was manipulating N and Team Plasma in order to achieve his own goals.

==Trivia==
* One of the Plasma Grunts in the castle references [[Team Rocket]] and [[Team Galactic]]. He says that Team Plasma learned from them, because they were conspicuous, and that's why people could interfere with their plans.
* In N's toyroom, there is a piece of the toy train in the basketball hoop for an unknown reason.
