== Subpages of a userpage ==

Hello, I noticed you warning people about their userpages, so I thought you'd be the right person to ask this. The thing is, I would like to create a subpage listing my in-game teams using the standard team template, since I want there to be more things related to Pokémon and me on my page. I wanted to ask whether or not it is allowed at all and what I should keep in mind besides not editing excessively. Thank you! [[User:Kikugi|Kikugi]] ([[User talk:Kikugi|talk]]) 10:16, 9 May 2018 (UTC)
:Making subpages for that is fine, the rules for subpages is the same as a normal userpage. An edit to your subpage also counts to the "three userspace edits per day" rule.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 10:28, 9 May 2018 (UTC)

== Another offensive username ==

Puta is a really rude word in Spanish(I think the account maker failed to use proper alts, but their intent is clear...is this worth your time for an unacceptable username?--[[User:BlisseyandtheAquaJets|BlisseyandtheAquaJets]] ([[User talk:BlisseyandtheAquaJets|talk]]) 17:16, 9 May 2018 (UTC)

== "Not everything is a pun" ==

...I never said everything is, but SM is known for them and "ワル" is not a Japanese word, but "warui" (悪い) is! And since it's spelled as "ワル" and "Warubiaru" (ワルビアル) is in the episode it makes sense it's a pun. I have no idea what your problem is and I don't care, but I've already explained why it's a pun. "ワル" isn't used as "bad" in katakana, but words are used in different characters when they're a joke. Like the episode with Dhelmise with "Ikari" (anger) being used as "いかり" as "anchor" but the same spelling "Ikari" also can be used to mean "怒り" (anger). [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 19:31, 12 May 2018 (UTC)
:Please respond and change it back because it's not spelled the right way, meaning it is a pun. I don't care what your problem is, but not correctly addressing a pun in a title that clearly has one just makes Bulbapedia look stupid. I've been obvious why it's a pun. Why can episode titles like SM071, SM065, and SM040 be acknowledged but not this? [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 14:54, 13 May 2018 (UTC)
::Just because "waru" is written in katakana, doesn't mean it no longer means "悪" or has a different meaning. "ワル" is still "悪", it's not some nonsensical word. And yes, "悪" can be used by itself. As for the title, "waru" could also be referring to Nanu, considering his attire and the fact the title includes "oyaji" (since it's "...waru oyaji wa...").
::As for the other episodes, they're fine. Ikari can mean either Anchor and Anger, like you said, so that's a pun. "Mairimasu" ''is'' pure nonsense and could only be a pun. "Pan-paka-pan" is a trumpet fanfare with just happens to include the word "pan", and the episode was about bread.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 15:20, 13 May 2018 (UTC)
:::The idea that not translating a pun is bad needs to be addressed.
:::Translating puns is HARD.
:::It is ''not'' always worth wracking your brain over or compensating for otherwise. And it's not even necessarily worth forcing something. Not translating a pun does not make Bulbapedia look stupid... [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 15:37, 13 May 2018 (UTC)

== Surge/Terrain confusion ==

There's confusion going on in the anime whether the [[Tapu]] are activating their signature abilities or using the Terrain moves. This issue has been resolved with {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Tapu Koko}}, but people are still mixing up {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Tapu Lele}} and {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Tapu Bulu}}'s Abilities with their Terrain moves. When Tapu Lele and Tapu Bulu activated their Abilities {{a|Psychic Surge}} and {{a|Grassy Surge}} respectively, users are assuming that they are using the attacks {{m|Psychic Terrain}} and {{m|Grassy Terrain}} instead. That is not the case. In ''[[SM037|Rising from the Ruins!]]'' and [[SM075]], when Tapu Lele and Tapu Bulu enter battle with Rockruff and {{AP|Lycanroc}} respectively, their Surge Abilities go off at the start of their battles. This happened with Tapu Koko as well when it battled {{AP|Pikachu}} in ''[[SM002|The Guardian's Challenge!]]'' and ''[[SM019|A Guardian Rematch!]]''. The Terrain moves can go off during any point of the battle, however the Surge Abilities can only activate when the Pokémon enter the field. Another point to show that it's their abilities activating in those episodes and not their attacks is in ''[[SM052|Revealing the Stuff of Legend!]]'' where all four Tapu used the four Terrain moves to show {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|the gang}} [[Nebby#In_the_anime|Nebby]]'s backstory. Even the anime makes mistakes as shown in SM075 where [[Acerola]] and {{Rotom}} misidentify Tapu Bulu's Grassy Surge as Grassy Terrain. --[[User:PKMNAdventurer|PKMNAdventurer]] ([[User talk:PKMNAdventurer|talk]]) 21:32, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
:I've removed them and added a hidden notice. Abilities and moves need to be explicitly said, especially those that would potentially have the same exact animation.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 03:11, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
::Ok, looks like Psychic Terrain was confirmed via dub captions (which is fine, until/unless the Japanese version says that it's something else later on). Grassy Terrain was said, which you've noted. Is it an error? We don't know. But for now, it is not an error unless they contradict themselves and call it Grassy Surge later on. At the end of the day, the is no confusion. Assuming moves is something you shouldn't be doing. If it is said or revealed in close caption, then that's final.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 12:08, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
:::Ok. I wanted to make sure if the move used was either the Terrain Move or the Surge Ability. Thank you for clearing it up. --[[User:PKMNAdventurer|PKMNAdventurer]] ([[User talk:PKMNAdventurer|talk]]) 20:48, 19 May 2018 (UTC)

== Requests ==

If you would be so kind, could you please hear me out and consider doing a couple things I can't do (at least without permission, in some cases):
* Template {{template|Trainerentry}} has several handy redirects for Trainer classes that have changed their names over the years, such as "Cooltrainer" to "Ace Trainer" and "Rocket" to "Team Rocket Grunt". However, there are several Trainer class name changes that have either been missed or happened after the template was last edited, like "Rocket Grunt"{{tt|*|From Generation II}} to "Team Rocket Grunt", "Pokéfan" to "Poké Fan", "Swimmer ♂/♀" to "Swimmer", and "Clerk ♂/♀" to "Office Worker". There may be others than these, but anyway, my point is, could you please add the missing redirects to the template in the same way as the already existing redirects?
* Back in January, I suggested that the [[Pokémon League (Alola)/Title Defense]] page should be split into separate SM and USUM Title Defense pages. I've already got the USUM section ready right [[User:FinnishPokéFan92/Pokémon League (Alola)/Title Defense/Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|here]] under my own userspace in case the idea gets approved. Do you think the page should be split?
* Ummm... I recall having a third request, but it doesn't come to my mind right now. I'll come back if I can remember it.
:--[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 12:59, 20 May 2018 (UTC)
::I've added the examples you've provided. If there are any more, do let me know.
::I've forwarded the article with the other staff members.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 08:16, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
:::Thank you for hearing me out. And indeed, I've discovered a few more redirect links that should be fixed: "Officer" and "Policeman" to "Police Officer", "Interviewer" to "Interviewers", "Socialite" to "Madame", and "School Kid" to "Schoolkid". Also, a couple of other things related to this subject:
::::In Generation II, the "Swimmer" class was classified as "Swimmer♂/♀", as in without a space, while in Generation VI, it's "Swimmer ♂/♀", as in ''with'' a space. The latter redirect is yet to be fixed.
::::In Generation II, the Trainer class that would later be known as "Schoolkid" was called "Schoolboy", hence why "Schoolboy" redirects to "Schoolkid" (or rather "School Kid", a redirect link). And then, in Generation VI, we were introduced to the separate "Schoolboy" Trainer class. As such, the Schoolboy links from Generation VI now lead to an incorrect article (similar to the "Medium" link from [[Saffron Gym]]'s page, actually, due to the Channeler class's renaming in Stadium, but that's a much more minor subject). I know this may be an impossible or at least a difficult problem to solve properly, but I decided to bring it up nevertheless, just in case.
:::The request I forgot about yesterday is actually a pretty old one: back in 2013, I made a suggestion to change the {{template|Gym Leaders of Unova}} to better separate the BW and B2W2 Gym Leaders from each other, but my edit (which you can see [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Template:Gym_Leaders_of_Unova&oldid=1865505 here]) was undone, because I hadn't talked about it beforehand. Since then, I've forgotten, remembered, and re-forgotten this multiple times, but now I've finally managed to make myself bring this long-forgotten topic up again. Could the template be edited in this or at least in a similar kind of way, or do you feel it's good enough as it is?
:::Also, I've also come up with a couple new things I'd want to propose since yesterday: could "Tide Song Hotel" and "Kantonian Gym" receive their own articles? I've already asked people's opinions about these ideas on [[Heahea City]] and [[Malie City]]'s talk pages, and at least the Tide Song Hotel split seems to have gotten some support already. Could you take these splits into consideration as well? Thank you.
:::--[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 10:04, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
::::Oh, and while I'm at it, I also found one Orre Trainer class redirect to fix: "Fun Old Lady" to "Matron". --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 12:35, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
:::::Ah, didn't see the subtle difference with the Swimmer trainer class. I've added the other TCs.
:::::I think the Unova Gym Leader Template is fine the way it is. Repeating the same Gym Leaders is pretty unnecessary, while I do get why, the template is about who are the Gym Leaders, separating by game isn't necessary. Plus, the three newer Gym Leaders being at the bottom of the first eight already implies that they were added later on.
:::::I've forwarded those suggestions to the other admins as well.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 05:11, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
::::::I actually just saw you making that edit. Thanks a lot.
::::::I understand. It's fine. I won't raise that topic again.
::::::Thanks once again. I'll be waiting for the results. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 05:36, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
:::::::Sorry to bother you again, but I've found a couple more links to fix, mainly from the Orre games:
::::::::Let's get the simpler ones out of the way first: "Researcher" and "Cipher R&D" to "Scientist".
::::::::Now, for something I'm not so sure of: the Orre-exclusive classes "Rogue" "Kaminko Aide", and "Robo Groudon" are Trainer classes used by only one person each, and they also only appear as redirect links on one page each. Hence why I'm not sure if these redirects should be removed or not. What do you think?
::::::::And finally, something a bit different, but still involving the same template. A big number of Fighting-type Trainers in FireRed and LeafGreen have their Pokémon holding Black Belts. However, the template links the "Black Belt" held item to "Type-enhancing item#Black Belt". This was understandable before, but now "Black Belt (item)" has its own article. Could you change the link to go to the item's own page now?
:::::::Thank you. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 06:59, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
::::::::Done. As for the three single trainer trainer classes, I think they're fine, due to the way the template works (the second parameter is under a TC template, so their has to be a [name] (Trainer class) link.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 03:29, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
:::::::::Thank you once again. However, when I looked at your edits, I also happened to notice that, similar to the Black Belt link you fixed, the held item link for "Metronome" leads to "In-battle effect item#Metronome". I can understand that you didn't notice that during your edit, so I'm not blaming you of anything, but could you be so kind and fix that one, too? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 05:25, 26 May 2018 (UTC)
::::::::::Whoopsie! Every time I think I'm done with this issue, I notice something new. The redirect link of "Poké'''F'''an" to "Poké Fan" has been fixed, but it's formatted as "Poké'''f'''an" on every pre-Generation VI page (as well as on the "Poké Fan (Trainer class)" article), and ''that'' redirect link still remains to be fixed. Could you do this one more thing? I'm sorry if you feel bothered by this. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 12:40, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
:::::::::::(deep sigh) One. More. Once again I've noticed something. In Generation II, some Poké Fans had their Pokémon holding Berries, as in "Berry (item)", but link just goes to "Berry". Could that be fixed? PS. I also have other stuff to talk about with you, but I'll probably start a new section for that purpose later. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 08:04, 2 June 2018 (UTC)

== Force preview question ==

I've heard about the force preview group, where you have to preview your edits before publishing them. And I thought it might help me slow down and evaluate if my edits are actually helpful, since I have a tendency to act impulsively. Is it possible to ask to be put in that group? I was just curious.

== "Pokémon seen" lists for movie locations ==

I wasn't too sure who to ask about this, though I have noticed that some movie-based locations have got the "Pokémon seen" lists and others don't. What is the requirement for these types of pages?. E.g. The Lake of Life has an incomplete list whilst Forina and the Tree of Beginning do not have any list, instead the Pokémon are just listed in the description section.

Also who is the authority on uploading images to the archives? I have a few images in mind that are needed to complete other pages like the Pokémon mate page.

Thanks. [[User:PardescanSlowbro|PardescanSlowbro]] ([[User talk:PardescanSlowbro|talk]]) 09:55, 28 May 2018 (UTC)
:Locations where Pokémon actually live there have the Pokémon list. Though I'm not too sure if it's needed, as most are just wild Pokémon. Maybe if they play a large role in the area, such as the titans in Tree of Beginning, then they can be listed. Otherwise, it's unnecessary. As for the archives, you have to create an account at the archives and wait to be autoconfirmed there (the requirements are the same as it is on the wiki).--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 02:43, 29 May 2018 (UTC)

== PardescanSlowbro ==

I'm having a really big problem with {{user|PardescanSlowbro}} right now. I once sent him [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3APardescanSlowbro&type=revision&diff=2768197&oldid=2766807 this message] in response to his editing style, and [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3APardescanSlowbro&type=revision&diff=2768426&oldid=2768197 he took it pretty personally] (even though I was also [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AGrammarFreak01&type=revision&diff=2768465&oldid=2766949 in the wrong here]). Since then, the user has made edits to a variety of articles, and I've commonly had to edit them to rectify errors that he made. For example, [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=EP045&type=revision&diff=2809520&oldid=2806418 he very recently edited] the plot summary of [[EP045]] and [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=EP045&diff=next&oldid=2809520 this] was what I did to improve it (note that I also did some unrelated changes at the same time).

[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3APardescanSlowbro&type=revision&diff=2801230&oldid=2801220 I once tried] to inform him of some of the kinds of errors he kept making in his edits, like [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AGrammarFreak01&type=revision&diff=2768465&oldid=2766949 you suggested], but [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3APardescanSlowbro&type=revision&diff=2801256&oldid=2801230 this] was his response. He also said [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3APardescanSlowbro&type=revision&diff=2801220&oldid=2801168 this beforehand]. [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3APardescanSlowbro&type=revision&diff=2801258&oldid=2801256 I tried] to be rational and explain myself this time, but the conversation did not move forward anymore, so I gave up trying to reason with him and just resorted to editing at his heels whenever I saw an error. He eventually [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3APardescanSlowbro&type=revision&diff=2809534&oldid=2809278 got agitated] by this.

== Harassment Procedure ==

Dear ForceFire,

I have felt personally vindicated and harassed by the user GrammarFreak01 on a continuous basis. I have pleaded to be left alone by the user and made them clearly aware of my feelings on their conduct towards myself. I was never under the assumption that any of my edits were to be untouched, though found the user in question deliberately followed and made, in some cases minor and pointless changes to over 40 pages (Episode 1 to 46 and some associated anime pages) directly after I did over recent days. The pages in question, at least the plot sections required some detail corrections but until my additions had not been looked at for several years. I had earlier requested significant action be taken against the user on Tiddlywinks page after an earlier spate of unexplained deletions to additions which were quickly reinstated by Tiddlywinks. Nothing came of this request on Tiddlywinks page, and the behaviour has persisted and worsened into vitriol that centres on GrammarFreak01's belief I referred to them as racist, though nothing of the sorts has occurred. I can no longer handle the barrage of blatancy and continuous harassment written on my discussion page by GrammarFreak01, and wish for those actions to end. At all times I have maintained my distance, and have thanked the user for their efforts when they have worked in collaboration with myself. Though their commentary and vicious attacks on my supposed sensitivities and linguistics must end. I have let things slide, despite my discontent, as to avoid further escalation. The user has been told to maintain their distance and respect previously written advices to improve their conduct, though such warnings remain unheeded and their pattern of behaviour towards me continues to intensify. I am completely naïve when it comes to Bulbapedia's bullying procedures, though require strong action be taken to ensure the harassment, belittlement and bullying that I have been exposed to by user GrammarFreak01 does not ever repeat.

I look forward to your reply, though will maintain my reserve and distance nonetheless,

== Quick query==
This is present in the trivia section on the Slowbro page:

*Slowbro's Pokédex entries state that if the Shellder is removed, it will revert to its Slowpoke form.
**This is the only mentioning of a Pokémon possibly devolving anywhere in the Pokémon games, aside from a card in the game versions of the TCG.

The first part is fine, the second point is incorrect as Exeggutor can also revert. Should the second point be deleted entirely as it both untrue and not unique or altered to include a connection with Exeggutor

e.g Slowbro and Exeggutor are the only recorded cases of Pokémon capable of devolution [[User:PardescanSlowbro|PardescanSlowbro]] ([[User talk:PardescanSlowbro|talk]]) 12:43, 28 June 2018 (UTC)

== Poké Problem characters list ==

OK, so my recent edit of [[SM080]] was taken down by you on the basis that, since the Pokémon I put on the appearance list appeared exclusively in the episode's Poké Problem, it doesn't deserve a mention (since Poké Problems are part of the episode apparently). I've also noticed that some edits on [[SM079]] also got erased on the same reason. Yet previous episodes' character lists feature characters that only appeared in the episodes' Poké Problem segments (for example Brock & Misty's siblings in [[SM042]]'s case and Harper and Sarah for [[SM071]]). As such, I have to wonder why its sometimes okay for characters and Pokémon that appeared exclusively in the Poké Problem of an episode to be mentioned on the character lists of said episode, but other times it's not OK? [[User:Pulsaro23|Pulsaro23]] ([[User talk:Pulsaro23|talk]]) 17:03, 29 June 2018 (UTC)
:Then those need to removed from their episodes and any other episodes that list PokéProblem appearances needs to be fixed. PokéProblem is a segment similar to Who's That Pokémon, it is not part of the actual episode.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 13:57, 30 June 2018 (UTC)
::While I'll agree that the Poké Problem and Who's that Pokémon segments share a similarity (the fact that they are tied to a situation/Pokémon from the episode), they are also very different. By that I mean that, while the WtP segment doesn't have any impact on the overall story of the episode, the bonus scenes shown after the Poké Problem segments expand upon the story of the episode (personally, I'd say they're very similar to the after-credits scenes form the Marvel & DC movies). For example, the Poké Problem segments for SM022 and SM057 feature scenes that resolve the episodes' ending cliffhangers, while others, like the ones for SM042 and SM030, flesh out more of the characters' personality and traits, as well as showing their relationships with other characters. As such, I'd say that, while Poké Problem segments are really part of the main episode, they still have some degree of importance, since the scenes shown at the end of those segments expand upon the main theme/story/characters of the episode (and as such, they should, as you say, "count"). Plus, in the case of the XY series, characters that appeared exclusively in its Poké TV segments were mentioned on the appearance list for its episodes (e.g. XY096, XY099, XY106 etc.). So why should the Poké TV segments receive special treatment and the Poké Problem ones not? [[User:Pulsaro23|Pulsaro23]] ([[User talk:Pulsaro23|talk]]) 14:37, 30 June 2018 (UTC)

== Usage of the word "native" ==

{{user|PardescanSlowbro}} is [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Raichu_%28Pok%C3%A9mon%29&type=revision&diff=2813914&oldid=2812285 concerned] about using the word "native" to describe the residents of [[Alola]] in the {{p|Raichu}} article, due to its connection to indigenous peoples who have been plagued with stereotypes and also its purported implicit nature as a development discourse, thus making it potentially offensive to some people. I did not see anything wrong with the word's usage, however, since it can alternatively be used as a synonym for "resident" or "citizen", as I [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3APardescanSlowbro&type=revision&diff=2813930&oldid=2813886 pointed out to him]. He's still concerned and has [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk:PardescanSlowbro&diff=next&oldid=2813930 pointed out] that official literature no longer uses the word, seemingly making it taboo, even though I have still heard it being used in the context I just described.

Do you think it is appropriate to use "native" in any shape or form here? I'm not aware of any other articles here that use the word. I do acknowledge the potential issue of indigenous peoples being offended, but I don't think anyone will be offended given the word's context in the Raichu article. What do you think? [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 06:12, 30 June 2018 (UTC)
:It's fine to use the word "native". No need to think that someone will get offended by the word.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 09:44, 30 June 2018 (UTC)

:: You failed to acknowledge my concerns, and reverted my re-edit after GrammarFreak01 again deleted it. The latest addition aided the sentence in making it more concise, and as stated, the phrase 'the natives' is not used by the Pokémon Company in any of it literature, and probably for good measure. The term 'native' to mean local makes sense though should only be applied to describe an area or plant such as on the Vileplume page under the biology section. I would like another opinion as you have allowed a good edit to be reverted[[User:PardescanSlowbro|PardescanSlowbro]] ([[User talk:PardescanSlowbro|talk]]) 05:52, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
:::It's very clear you changed the sentence because of your dislike of the word "native", whether it was a good change or not. You made the change because there was a word you didn't like. That's why it got reverted. There's is nothing wrong with using the word. The Pokémon Company not using it doesn't mean we can't use the word. You're thinking too much into the negative connotation of the word.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 06:00, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
:::: Negative connotations is your justification? I saw the term and looked at it as an opportunity to make a positive change in line with one of Bulbapedia's major aims, inclusivity. Allowing the phrase 'the natives' is an issue as it is loaded language and may be used on other pages in much the same way. But correcting the term to something more global and neutral has become the issue, leaving aside the issues associated with using this turn of phrase in the first place, even though the original editor of course had no intention of being racist or degrading to particular demographics. By actually allowing this term to pass through with your acceptance, you are also condoning the use of this term in much the same way across potentially other articles and it may enter people's own thoughts on people of different backgrounds. Inclusivity was my motivation because of the so-called negative and very true reality for many individuals on this planet, that terms like this are harmful. I cannot imagine the editor's guide has any detail on this specific turn of phrase, though it would diffidently be designed to uphold inclusivity of all peoples.[[User:PardescanSlowbro|PardescanSlowbro]] ([[User talk:PardescanSlowbro|talk]]) 06:23, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
:::::You just admitted that the editor that added the word had no intention of being racist or degrading, if you already think that then it shouldn't be an issue. It's not offensive unless someone makes it offensive. The sentence is in no way written in an offensive manner, and no one will take it as an insult. You're looking to much into it.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 06:57, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
::::::I'm afraid you are wrong when it comes to the development discourse, it is an issue incidental or not. I am going to contact someone higher up to alert them to my concerns about the phrase, not word, "the natives", as you have plainly ignored the fact that such terminology is typically avoided due to taboo and discrimination surrounding it. Thanks [[User:PardescanSlowbro|PardescanSlowbro]] ([[User talk:PardescanSlowbro|talk]]) 07:06, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
:::::::When used correctly, "native" can also be "global and neutral". The only way it can be considered "loaded language" is if the person writing it in question ''makes'' it loaded language. I understand the history behind the word, and I also understand that the current political climate makes usage of certain words even more dangerous, but if the word has alternate meanings that are more acceptable, then I don't see why we must avoid using it, no matter how incidental the racism. If you have a problem with it, take it up with Merriam-Webster, not the admins here. If someone else does have a problem with it, we'll talk it out, see where it goes. But in the meantime, we can't simply just avoid using a certain word out of concern of potentially offending someone, even if the word in question is used in an appropriate, non-offensive context. I can't think of anyone else here who would think this word, or similarly loaded language of any kind, should be omitted in its entirety even though it's being used in a non-offensive context. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 07:11, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
::::::::Exactly. The word is not used in a derogatory manner, it is completely fine. It's all about context, and in this case, the context is not offensive. The only person that has a problem with it is you, Pardescan. And we won't change it just because one person thinks it may be offensive. I'll repeat this again, because you seem to be ignoring it, '''you are looking too much into the negative aspects of the word'''.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 07:32, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

== Integration of Spaceworld Iterations of Existing Pokémon ==

I felt I would ask this here, since you're the one who linked the in-progress pages for the Pokémon Gold/Silver Spaceworld demo and you seem to know what the plans for them are, and the Gold and Silver Beta discussion page is rather cluttered and doesn't seem like a good place to catch the attention of anybody in particular.

There are a number of Pokémon added for the demo that did end up being released as official Pokémon, such as the Mareep, and Phanpy lines, Crobat, Espeon, Umbreon, Miltank, and others, who are present in the Spaceworld demo build, sometimes with different names and subtly-different designs. Additionally, there are Pokémon such as Haneko, Poponeko, and Wataneko, Gift, Blissey, Scissors, Leafeon, etc. that are very obviously earlier drafts of Pokémon that would appear in Generation II or later.

Are these Pokémon going to be integrated into the site differently compared to, say, Pokémon like Honoguma, Kurusu, Norowara, Wolfman, or Twinz, that were very clearly cut entirely and have yet to appear in any official, publicly-released Pokémon game?

As an aside, how are name labels going to be handled for Pokémon such as Kingdra, Girafarig, and Bellossom, whose final names are already present and in use in the demo? It seems to me that the sensible thing to do would be to label them with their final English names, since the names they have do have official English-language counterparts, and it would be clearer and easier to read for readers who might be unfamiliar with with the Japanese names of those Pokémon.

::Exactly. Your reasoning for removing it didn't even make sense, and if you actually read other anime character articles, other recurring characters also use the term "reappears".--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:51, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
:::So DID both of you read the article CAREFULLY why "Since their marriage, Burnet has moved in with Kukui and Ash and '''has made regular appearances''' in the Sun & Moon series ever since." is present in the sentence? So why don't Professor Kukui being "reappear" for every episode? Regular appearancing should not be recurring? I don't get the sense. {{unsigned|KyleRGiggs}}
::::Just because someone makes regular appearances, doesn't mean we can't use the word "reappear". Besides, the two don't appear that regularly, especially for Burnet who only appeared once in between SM071-80 (not counting the PokeProblem segment) and Kukui only physically appears four times in that 10 episode span. And sign your comments.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 05:18, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
:::::I did read that sentence. To be honest, that sentence needs to be reworded. As Force Fire said, it's not as regular as that sentence implies. If she did appear "regularly", then she'd actually be a main character, and then the need to list every episode she appears in is diminished.

== Random stuff ==

Since I last contacted you, I've come up with a few new things to ask every now and then, but they keep slipping my mind when I don't talk about them. Hence why I've decided to dedicate this section of the talk page for subjects that I come up with and need admin help for, which means that I may sometimes come back here when I come up with something new. But anyway, let's get started with the most recent subject I've come up with: the [[Looker]] Bureau post-game story from {{pkmn|X and Y}}. Since the [[Delta Episode]] and [[Episode RR]] have their own pages, shouldn't the Looker Bureau storyline also get its own article? I think it would deserve it. 
Oh, and speaking of new articles: has my suggestion of splitting the Kantonian Gym and Tide Song Hotel into their own location articles been moving forward? Has it received enough approval to actually be done some day? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 10:17, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
:I did bring them (Kantonian Gym and Tide Song Hotel) up with the other staff members, didn't really come to a solid conclusion. For me, they both appear to have very little information text wise (from what is already there), and what we don't want are articles that are just one paragraph and a whole bunch of templates. I think it'd be good to create them in your userspace to see how the page will look.
:The Looker saga could be made into it's own page. Make on in your userpage so the staff can decide if it's needed.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 05:22, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
::I've created the page for the Kantonian Gym [[User:FinnishPokéFan92/Kantonian Gym|here]], and I also intend to start making the Tide Song Hotel and Looker Bureau pages as soon as I find the time for it. In the meantime, though, there's a couple of other things I would like to bring up.
::Firstly, [[Talk:Serena (game)#Father? (revived)|this talk]] regarding the X and Y rival's father. Evidence heavily suggests that Calem/Serena's father is a Veteran Trainer who can be found in [[Snowbelle City]], but for the last bit of confirmation, we need someone who can read Japanese. Could you ask someone to help with that?
::And secondly... Secondly... Well, this is ''exactly'' why I should come here to vent ideas out of my head more often. I've forgotten my second point. Embarrassing, I know, but I'll come back to it once I remember it.
::--[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 07:22, 10 August 2018 (UTC)
::Ah, I remember now! Some time ago, I created a category for {{cat|Legendary and Mythical Pokémon locations}}, my intention being to have it attached to the {{template|legendarylocations}} template. However, said template is protected, so I'd need help from a user like you to put it there. Could you do it? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 08:59, 10 August 2018 (UTC)
:::I've brought the Kantonian Gym page to the others. There was talks of the Serena's father issue a while back, I think one of the staff members found in game text supporting it, though I asked again to be sure. Navigation templates only need the Navigation template category, the category you provided would go on the actual location pages.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 09:59, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
::::Thanks, looking forward to the results.
::::Yes, it's been proven that the gender pronoun used by the supposed father changes depending on the player character's gender, but we now also have links to two Japanese videos to see if this occurs in the Japanese version too, which could count as the final piece of evidence, and is why we need someone who can understand Japanese to confirm it.
::::I mean like this: <nowiki><includeonly>[[Category:Legendary and Mythical Pokémon locations]]</includeonly></nowiki> When a category is attached to a template like this, it will only apply to the pages where said template is used at, not the template itself. That's what I would like you to do, if possible.
::::--[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 10:56, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
:::::I've now finished the Tide Song Hotel page as well. You can find it [[User:FinnishPokéFan92/Tide Song Hotel|here]]. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 18:20, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
::::::Excuse the delay. The Looker bureau post game story can be made, with the title "Looker events" as that is what it's called in-game, according to another staff member. Haven't gotten much feedback regarding the other stuff that you brought up. I'll keep you updated regarding those.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 07:14, 15 August 2018 (UTC)

::::::::I haven't started working on the Looker evernts yet, but I haven't forgotten about them. In the meantime, though, there's an issue that has been bugging me for years now, which nobody has appparently done anything to fix yet. I'm talking about Generation VI models. Not only are we still missing most VS models from at least one set of the Generation VI core series games, we are also still missing a couple VS models: [[Archie]] and [[Zinnia]] are missing their VS models altogether (they've been using temporary ones for years now), and {{an|Brendan}} and {{an|May}} are missing their VS models with a [[Key Stone|Mega Bracelet]]. I've also wondered if the difference between the {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}}s who are striking a pose and those who aren't would warrant alternate VS models for them, but that's a lesser priority in my books.
::::::::And, as for a more recent case of the same issue, we're still missing several US/UM VS models as well, including the {{tc|Master & Apprentice}} and {{tc|Sparring Partners}} VS models and [[Gladion]]'s VS model with a Z-Power Ring. Could you bring this up with people who could possibly fix these issues? I've tried to do it myself a couple times over the years, but it has never lead to anything. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 09:02, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
::::::::Oh, almost forgot! [[Giovanni]]'s first VS model is a bit dark, and [[Professor Kukui]] is also missing his model with the Z-Power Ring. PS. Has the Serena/Calem father topic been solved? Can it be considered confirmed? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 11:18, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
:::::::::The VS sprites are something that is still ongoing, it just gets lower and lower on the priority list whenever something new comes around. It's something that will be done, "when" I can't really say for sure. Users are free to upload the models themselves, granted they get it from somewhere that isn't a fan site.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 11:54, 24 August 2018 (UTC)
::::::::::Figures. I'm just a guy who hates incompleteness, so these lingering cases of incompleteness tend to bug me a lot. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 12:17, 24 August 2018 (UTC)
:::::::::::For a while now already, I've been planning a massive edit project, where I go over '''every single''' page with a Stadium and Stadium 2 party template, and change the number of Poké Balls in the template(s) to 3 instead of 6 (since only three of the six Pokémon are always used per battle), as well as remove the word "Pokémon" from the game name, as it isn't that way in any other game party templates either. But that's why I've come here for you this time: in preparation for this project, could you edit {{template|Party/Single}} to include codes for Stadium and Stadium 2 in the game name section? And while we're on the topic of this template, do the Battle Chatelaines alone warrant a combined code for X, Y, OR, and AS, and the few version-exclusive Battle Tree Trainers from Generation VII codes for S/US and M/UM, respectively? PS. I hope you understood that last part. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 17:51, 3 September 2018 (UTC)
:::::::::::Thanks. I saw you just doing this, and I'm honestly really grateful for it, but in case you didn't know, when we refer to "Pokémon Stadium", the link should go to "[[Pokémon Stadium (English)]]", instead of just "[[Pokémon Stadium]]". --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 07:37, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
:::::::::::Never mind. You noticed that yourself. Sorry. XP --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 07:38, 5 September 2018 (UTC)

{{indent}}Added Stadium/2 to the template. As for changing the Poké Ball number, I'm iffy about it. I get what you're saying, but they still have six possible Pokémon. As for the last request, I assume you mean for the party template?, if so, they're already coded in.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 07:40, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
:Yeah. Personally, I'm inclined to keep the six Poké Balls too, but, as you can see {{DL|Professor Kukui|Battle Royal Dome|here}}, for example, some user(s) apparently think that the number of shown Poké Balls should be equal to the maximum number of Pokémon that can be used from said selection of Pokémon at a time. Hence why most [[Pokémon World Tournament|PWT]] teams have six Balls, since all six Pokémon are used if the [[Triple Battle]] format is in used. Then there's also the case where the pool of possible Pokémon is greater than six, but I can understand that one.
:As for the codes, I meant as in a code of "XYORAS" turning out as "X, Y, Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire", and codes "SUS" and "MUM" turning out as "Sun and Ultra Sun" and "Moon and Ultra Moon", respectively. However, as I said, the former would only apply to the four {{tc|Battle Chatelaine}}s, while the latter ones would only apply for the few [[Battle Tree]] Special Trainers who are version-exclusive, so I wondered if that's a good enough reason for those codes to be created. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 09:26, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
::For the Kukui article, I think the line "Master Rank challenge of the Battle Royal, using three of the following Pokémon" will suffice. If they're confused, then they are just flat out not reading the article. As for the stadium articles, I think a similar line could work.
::Ah I see, I've added the code for those.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 09:45, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
:::Thanks a ton! Now there's nothing stopping me from starting my grand edit project! And it's going to be even easier I expected, thanks to you!
:::Nice work... Except that you made a small typo. You accidentally wrote "SUM" instead of "MUM" for "Moon and Ultra Moon". --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 11:18, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
::::Another small typo found. The link for Stadium 2 leads just to "Pokémon Stadium". You forgot the "2" from the end. Whoops...
::::Also, another unrelated thing: in Pokémon Colosseum, the player character starts the game off with a number of healing items in their Bag. Does this qualify as a method of acquiring these items for their respective articles? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 16:52, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
:::::Fixed. As for the items, I'd say those count.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 07:02, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
::::::I think we need a link template to make the Alola game links easier to create, as writing "<nowiki>[[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon]]</nowiki>" for a link version of "Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon" again and again can get tiresome, plus it eats up a lot of unnecessary space. I'd do it myself, but I'm not sure how, so I've come to ask for your help again. Can you do it, or at least ask someone else to do it? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 09:30, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
:::::::Took a while to remember what the template was, but [[Template:Game4]] exists, though I edited it to add USUM. Typing the code <nowiki>{{game4|Sun|Moon|Sun|Moon}}</nowiki> should give you this: {{game4|Sun|Moon|Sun|Moon}}.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 11:54, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
::::::::Thank you! Also, another issue regarding link templates: when adding a link to a Pokémon's alternate form, it's usually written as <nowiki>{{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|<Pokémon>|<Form name>}}</nowiki>, which, like the previous thing you fixed, is a bit lengthy, especially if done repeatedly. So I've been thinking about the creation of a link template to fix the issue, going something like this: <nowiki>{{form|<Pokémon>|<Form name>}}</nowiki>, which would lead to the correct section of [[List of Pokémon with form differences]], based on the contents of the second slot (the one with <Pokémon> in my example here). Do you think this could/should be made? --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 13:58, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
::::::::Also, I just noticed: your edit on {{template|game4}} was a bit flawed. The "Sun and Moon" part of the link includes the word "Versions", even though it's not supposed to.

:::::::::I purposely left the "versions" in the first link as I wasn't confident whether adding a switch would mess the template up and mess up other pages that are using the template, so I didn't risk it. I'll bring up to idea for a "form template" to the other staff members, though I think it's a fine idea.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 12:45, 26 September 2018 (UTC)

:::A while back, I [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/User_talk:Tiddlywinks#Creating_Japanese_voice_actor_articles asked] {{U|Tiddlywinks}} about the process of creating VA articles, and they directed me to [[Bulbapedia:Project VA]] without mentioning anything else. The main project page ''never'', ''EVER'' said anything about having to consult with the admins first before the creation of an individual article, and trust me, I read through that thing thoroughly. I've been at this since last month, and no one has given me any warnings or blocked me for creating so many VA articles during that time. This is in comparison to [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/User_talk:GrammarFreak01/Archive_1#Creating_pages the warning I got] from Tiddlywinks hours after I created the [[Ash's Pikachu (M20)]] article (which was what motivated me to ask Tiddlywinks about the VA articles in the first place). Because of all that, I took it that my actions were already cleared by Tiddlywinks and I didn't even have to worry about asking the admins any further.

:::If it was supposed to be common sense for me to just alert the admins about the creation of any kind of article beforehand, then I do apologize for that. I was simply following everything that was laid out for me at [[Bulbapedia:Project VA]], with the misconception that Tiddlywinks was alright with everything simply because I contacted him only once before my article creation spree.

== floor order cont ==

im confused, youre saying the ordering will be RBY>GSC>FRLG>HGSS regardless of floor order? so do you mean list all rby items before gsc or put them together if there are two items on the same floor? yes, i am using common sense by not putting an item deep in the dungeon first, but what if said deep item were to be on one of the earlier floors if not the earliest? then floor order dictates i would have to list said item before many of the other items i pass by before i even get to it. thats why floor order is bad. i know were not a walkthrough, but we have to list the items in one way or another, and like you said, it should make sense atleast right? I understand that it is not a "high" priority. but if i can list in an order that makes sense, why not? is floor order really a higher priority? again im trying to say that floor order is bad. --[[User:EternalDragonX|EternalDragonX]] ([[User talk:EternalDragonX|talk]]) 12:58, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
:Yes, the game order will still be the same regardless of the template going by floor order. If an items exist in more than one set of games and is in the same location, the games get put together.
:Just so we're on the same page here, when you say "deep" you mean tucked in the furthest part of the first floor, right? Because there's no way the place I just described could be the first thing you come across. If you mean if the player traverses from the opposite end (say Victory Road, Pokemon League entrance to Route 22 entrance), then that's not really important. The location ordering should be from the player's first run through of the area (so Route 22 to Pokemon League).
:Sorting by floor order helps users see what items are available at a certain floor in one grouping. It'd actually be ''more'' confusing if the listing were to alternate between "Floor 1" and "Floor 2", especially if there's suddenly a "Basement floor" in between them.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 14:43, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
::may i suggest instead of RBY>GSC>FRLG>HGSS, that it be RBY>FRLG>GSC>HGSS? because rby frlg are basically the same games and a lot of the time they will have items that are common to all of them, but also a lot of the time frlg will have some new items, and shoving gsc items in between would not only look weird, but confusing.
::yes i mean for example tucked away in a place on the first floor that also serves as the back exit. therefore in a regular playthrough, most players would pick up said item last, since you run by every other item before it. victory road is a perfect example of what im talking about. of course i wouldnt list the items as if they were going from indigo plateau to route 22. that makes no sense. if you look at the list: https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Victory_Road_(Kanto)#Items i list guard spec ultra ball and full restore on floor 2 after overheat on floor 3. why? because those 3 items are grouped in an area in floor 2 that can only be accessible after passing through the entirety of floor 3; the area in this case being the exit. so in my head, this ordering makes perfect sense. blindly following floor order would mean i would list these items before the max revive, which again i dont think makes much sense since we talked about how they literally cant be come acrossed before the floor 3 items. --[[User:EternalDragonX|EternalDragonX]] ([[User talk:EternalDragonX|talk]]) 18:11, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
:::Any unpredictable order is bad. A reasonable person would generally expect to see everything for a floor together. If I see several items that start with something like 1F, 2F, 1F, 3F, 5F (or whatever), it just looks messy to me. Nothing that extreme may occur in the games, but that's what your logic would demand. (And less extreme examples are still messy IMO.)
:::It's not exactly hard to look back to the "end" of a floor if there were items you just couldn't get to when you passed through the first part (if floors are grouped). But if floors aren't grouped, then if I see several items starting with "2F" and then that turns into "3F", I'm gonna think those were all the items on 2F in the list, and that can be very confusing.

::::altho i still believe that 1F, 2F, 1F, 3F, 5F (or whatever) would be better if it made sense that you'd get the items that way, i have argued my point to the fullest and i can respect it if you disagree. however, still waiting on you force fire to answer my question about listing the items in region order rather than game order. aka kanto>johto>hoenn etc. over rby>gsc>frlg etc. --[[User:EternalDragonX|EternalDragonX]] ([[User talk:EternalDragonX|talk]]) 00:57, 5 October 2018 (UTC)
:::::Ordering the games by RBY>FRLG>GSC>HGSS is fine, some (or a majority of) articles are like this.
:::::So we are talking about the same thing, that brings up the question of why you are concerned about having to place an item that is deep in a dungeon as the first item. As I said, the order should be listed on the players first run through of the area. You don't need to worry about those that'll traverse the opposite way.
:::::As for items that can only be accessed via another floor, group those under all the other Floor 2 items and say in the descriptor that it requires traversing through Floor 3. Putting those items below Floor 3 makes it a touch confusing, and also a bit walkthrough-ish. I guess it's just me being condescending, but players should be able figure that stuff (having to traverse through floor 3 to get to some floor 2 items) for themselves. And ass TiddlyWinks said, listing the items by floor looks much more cleaner and easier on the eyes.
:::::Also, I saw and checked that you changed the template to be one big listing rather than separate listings. Maybe that should've been discussed first before making the edit. --[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:47, 5 October 2018 (UTC)
::::::i am concerned about having to place an item that is deep as the first item because if for example it was one of, if not the only, items on the first accessible floor (say floor 1), but not accessible unless you traverse one of the other floors (say floor 2), then we gotta list it first even tho you probably get the other items on floor 2 before it. you already answered this in your 3rd paragraph. like i said to tiddlywinks if u guys feel like floor order is cleaner then fine. i also like your solution of putting in the descriptor that it requires traversing through floor 3. i think ill do that. --[[User:EternalDragonX|EternalDragonX]] ([[User talk:EternalDragonX|talk]]) 14:33, 5 October 2018 (UTC)

::::"What move can <species> ''learn'' in <game/generation>?" may be equally sensible/important, but if the pages were focused (solely/primarily) on that, there would be no need to have an "By events" subsection (to a lesser extent, probably not even "By breeding"), and I think we can all agree that this information is valuable/sensible.

:::::::That's an exaggeration. If you know what you're looking for, it'll only taking you one-two clicks. You can't be searching for what move a Pokemon can learn previously without a set goal.

:::::::::Pikachu cannot '''learn''' Mega Kick in USUM (hence why it's not there at first glance), but it can know it if you transfer it from another game (which is common sense, of course it's going to know Mega Kick if you transfer it, the game isn't going to force it to forget the move).
:::::::::I just gave an example of how it only take one-two clicks to find what you're looking for. And you misinterpreted my example. If you're thinking of a certain game, you're automatically thinking of a certain generation. Go to the page and click on that specific generation.
:::::::::You can convince me to change my mind, but so far, "it's too hard, annoying, and boring to sift through a few pages" is not convincing enough to change my mind.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 12:28, 14 October 2018 (UTC)

{{indent}}Nescientist... what do you mean by "know"? Because a Pokémon can "know" a move via transfer or events. If you have neither a generation or move in mind, then you are '''''not''''' transferring. You are just blindly going through pages for no reason. If you're question ends so vaguely at "What moves can Pikachu know in USUM", then I don't know what you're looking for because you're not explaining the method. It's either "What can Pikachu know in USUM '''via transfer'''" or "What can Pikachu know in USUM '''via events'''". If you're talking about transfers, then I've already answered that many times.

Wanting to know what "sleep inducing moves" or "highest possible power" is competitive fluff. We are not a strategy guide. Casual gamers aren't going to care about that stuff. A casual gamer is going to want to know what moves their Pokemon can know in the game they have in their hands without outside influence (i.e. transfer or events). They're not going to care about sleep inducing move or highest based power. Not everyone is a competitive player.

Sumwun, don't be difficult. I don't even know what you're talking about. If you have a '''''move''''' in mind, go to the move page and ctrl+f. If you have a '''''game''''' in mind, go to the appropriate learnset page. You are '''''not''''' going to be looking through the learnsets to look for a single move. No one is going to do that. '''''No one''''' is going to blindly look through six learnsets looking for just one move, when they can just go to the move article itself. It's not that hard. I don't think you understand what the different kinds templates are for, and assuming they're all do the same thing.

You're Golem question, like Nescientist's "sleep inducing" question is competitive fluff. Again, we are not a strategy guide. And your question was '''even more vague'''. What is the method you seek? level up? breeding? TM? what? Be more specific in your searches. I like to think users are browsing the site fully aware of what they are looking for, not exact but an idea of what they are looking for. By the sounds of it, you're browsing the site without a single thing in mind. It stops at "What can Golem learn/know" rather than specifying "What can Golem learn/know via this specific method".--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:31, 15 October 2018 (UTC)
:I already rephrased what it means when I do not specify: it means "by whatever means", which means at all, by level-up or events or transfer or ''anything'' else. Moves a Pokémon may know in USUM. I'm explicitly ''not'' saying "by transfer only" (or anything else), I don't know why you insist I need to say that; because that is not what I'm asking.
:Anyway, you seem to have understood that my specific questions (and Sumwun's) are hard to answer, not easy. (Which is good, because that's why I mentioned them; my original question is ''more general''.)
:I would object to your take that it's only competitive fluff (and I did so [[Bulbapedia talk:Project Pokédex/Structure#Adding moves available only by transfer from an earlier generation|here]]). What do you think casual gamers would be looking for? If you're excluding what you call "competitive fluff", do you think they would need "By breeding"? (If so, why?) [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 16:33, 15 October 2018 (UTC)
::If nobody goes through learnset pages for moves, what do people use them for?
::Transfer-only moves are not competitive fluff or strategy guides. They are real Pokemon information that is true even when nobody is competitive battling and is not at all fan-made, but they simply happen to be more useful to competitive battlers. If this kind of information isn't allowed on Bulbapedia, why do we have a page called "World Championships", which is pretty much the definition of competitive battling? [[User:Sumwun|sumwun]] ([[User talk:Sumwun|talk]]) 03:10, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
:::Nescientist: This discussion is about transfer moves, so I assume you're talking about and looking for transfer moves. If you're looking for "anything at all", then you're not looking for anything specific so the '''bare minimum''' is already on the species article, you do not need to click on anything else. Everything it can know at '''bare minimum''' is ''right there''.
:::I didn't even answer both of your questions. I basically said that they are irrelevant because we are not a strategy guide. We're not going to say "This Pokemon can know this move which is X power" because that is competitive fluff and strategy guide-ish. No casual gamer is going to think that specifically.
:::I just said what casual gamers are looking for "'''things their Pokemon can learn normally within the game they have in their hands, without outside influence like transfers and events'''". This includes, level up moves, TMs, and such. Breeding is game mechanic and should be listed, I don't regard it as competitive fluff.
:::Sumwun: I don't think you understand how these things work. People look through the learnsets to look for moves '''''from a specific game or generation'''''. They are looking for the '''entire moveset''', not just one move. '''The entire moveset'''. If you're looking for one move, go to the move article. Looking for a moveset for a specific game, look through the learnset. It's not that hard to understand.
:::"World Championships" is an article detailing an event. It's not detailing strategies. It's not detailing what moves would be better. It's not detailing which Pokemon would be better. It's just detailing the event. Again, it's like you have no idea what that article is about.
:::It's real information, yes. But it can be seen by going through the moveset pages, because like I said, someone looking to transfer their Pokemon over so they can have a Pokemon with a move they can no longer learn, already have a game or move in mind. They are not blindly looking through pages.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 06:23, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
::::Just going to put my 2 cents in here (I'm not strongly for nor against):
::::1) Firstly, I think an important question that needs to be answered first is: Does a section on transfer-only moves have any role outside of the competitive field? All the examples raised at the moment have all been competitive play-oriented which I agree shouldn't be Bulbapedia's focus. I can think of one question where a transfer-only moves section ''could'' help with (e.g. "A Corsola I received from a trade has Whirlpool, Sucker Punch, and Secret Power. Is it hacked?" - although it wouldn't be too hard to find this information elsewhere + it is quite a specific question).
::::2) Another point that should be discussed is that some (albeit a small number of) moves may not be obvious to some users whether they can be transferred or not - e.g. inability to transfer most HMs, ability to transfer from VC, ability to transfer certain HMs (e.g. Defog, Whirlpool)
::::3) Lastly, I should note that a transfer-only moves section is likely to be longer than most will think (esp. as most of it is made up of moves which lost their TM status in a new gen) - though the length isn't as important --[[User:Wowy|'''Wowy''']][[User talk:Wowy|'''(토크)''']] 07:01, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
:::::i don't think your example is all that great, because force fire is going to say you would just look up the move pages of each of those individual moves and ctrl f for corsola. an example i could think of which is pretty niche, but possible i think, is "im dead set on having a corsola for my playthrough of ultra sun. i want it to have the best movelist possible; im willing to transfer from prev gens to do so. is there a quick way i can get a list of all those moves without having to go through all the pages?" so imo this new section for moves learned from prev gens isnt useless; theres definitely a benefit. i think the question is, is it worth it.
:::::if you ARE going through the lists of previous gens, you already know what you ARENT looking for: every move learnable from the current gen. although i dont think going through lists for new moves requires THAT much work, i dont think the work is negligible either. --[[User:EternalDragonX|EternalDragonX]] ([[User talk:EternalDragonX|talk]]) 07:47, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
::::::Yes, I completely agree with you (maybe I should have made that more clear). I was just trying to give an example of a question which would be less competitive play-oriented (because the examples already given are not), and I as I said, the information could easily be found elsewhere --[[User:Wowy|'''Wowy''']][[User talk:Wowy|'''(토크)''']] 08:48, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
:::::::I don't know how I can be any clearer, but the question is "What are moves Pikachu can know in USUM", i.e. by whatever means; it is not, I repeat, NOT something else. The species page alone does not answer it: you need that and ''all'' previous generation learnsets, at minimum. (And that's all I'm saying, basically. I believe you, ForceFire, finally understood that.)
:::::::Wowy, I believe it would only be beneficial if you presented your opinion at [[Bulbapedia talk:Project Pokédex/Structure#Adding moves available only by transfer from an earlier generation|that other talk page]] (maybe even answered my question there). Anyway, I'm just gonna address your points here:
:::::::1. I wouldn't know how any question about moves would not have at least some relevance to competitive play; battles and moves are a central concept of the Pokémon franchise, and anyone who plays Pokémon should have some interest in competitive play. It's a different thing to talk about serious competitive battlers (like, those who maintain tier lists and whatnot), though; and I think they wouldn't really care what the answer to my two questions are (but I could be mistaken, because again, I'm not a competitive player myself). The Swinub I mentioned at that other page was purely non-competitive in that sense, too; I used it for a playthrough. As an aside, I guess the section I propose wouldn't necessarily answer your type of "legal" question; for example, a section would include both {{m|Pay Day}} and {{m|Mimic}} for Pikachu, but a Pikachu that knows both moves simultaneously would still be illegal (I think that's similar to how the current "By breeding" section cannot answer whether two Egg Moves at the same time are legal.)
:::::::2. I already said that at that other page when I explained that it is even harder to find out than I initially thought. (A "By transfer" section will ''not'' necessarily include all moves a Pokémon may have known at some earlier game (Pikachu ''can'' know {{m|Petal Dance}}, for example, but ''not'' in USUM by any means such as transfer); therefore, I also don't think Tiddlywinks' choice of the word "legacy moves" was exact for my proposal.)
:::::::3. I'm not sure it will be that long, but as you said, it shouldn't really matter.
:::::::Sumwun: I ''do'' understand what you're saying (and I agree), but you seem to derail the discussion with some of your more provocative questions (ForceFire never said Bulbapedia shouldn't cover anything that has anything to do with competitive play, for example). I hope that's not your intention, let's try to keep it simple. :)
:::::::ForceFire, moves listed under "By breeding" are not covered by the text you bolded (and by the way, in my opinion, those are about as much "competitive fluff" as "By transfer" is), "By events" even less. I think you didn't answer whether you think casual gamers would need "By breeding"!? (Or did you? I'm still - seriously - trying to get to the bottom of what you think move sections should cover and why.) [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 16:57, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
::::::::You didn't even read what I wrote, because I already answered that in my previous response. And I know it's an outright lie when you say you don't have a game or generation in mind, because the question is "What can Pikachu know in '''USUM'''". You've singled out '''USUM'''. That is that game you have in mind. And since you're not looking for anything specific, just the bare minimum (level up, TMS) and that's already on the article. All moves that Pikachu can know through '''normal gameplay (i.e. not anything specific, by any means)''' in '''USUM''' are already on the Pikachu page. The species page already has the most current (i.e. '''USUM''' or '''Gen VII''') moveset. Why are you even looking through the previous generation movesets if you're only looking for moves it can know in'''USUM'''? It's already on the species page, you don't need to click on anything else.
::::::::Breeding is a game mechanic. It's as important as TMs and level up moves. The move sections should cover all moves a Pokémon can learn '''through normal gameplay''' in the most '''recent game or generation'''. Transferring isn't '''learning through normal gameplay". Sure, neither are events, but I can look past that because those are generally one time things and should be noted.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 17:39, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
:::::::::Nescientist didn't ask for moves that could be known "through normal gameplay".

::::::::::# I am not looking for a bare minimum. (My question was on "moves Pikachu can know in USUM [by whatever means]".)
::::::::::# What Sumwun said (and everyone, including Sumwun, should be able to see how it is a ''valid'' question to ask).
::::::::::# I am looking through previous movesets because not all moves Pikachu can know in USUM are at [[Pikachu (Pokémon)]]; Mega Kick, for example, isn't. (We've been there before, I mentioned that way up above, even rephrased it repeatedly.)
::::::::::# Yes, I do need to click on something else to check, i.e. all previous movesets (at minimum).
::::::::::# Transfer is a game mechanic.
::::::::::# In my opinion, breeding is not quite as important as TMs and level-up moves, if only because I cannot—by no means—teach (an individual) Pokémon I already own its species' Egg Moves. (It's still important, though.)
::::::::::# Finally, a "definition" of what you think move sections should cover: moves Pokémon may ''learn'' through normal gameplay within the generation, plus event moves. I'll just mention that they do already cover more than that, for example how {{p|Cubchoo}} may learn Avalanche in USUM.

:::::::::::I think the problem with the "outright lie" is that transferring a Pokemon requires 2 games. Nescientist knew that the END game would be US or UM.

== Need your help ==

Hi there! Can you please help me with [[User talk:Mikuri#Who's stalking whose edits?|this discussion]]? I am tired of explaining to them that their obsession with having the current revision of a page is more of a hindrance than a help. Aside from the examples I offered in my talk page, you can check GrammarFreak01's latest edits to [[Marian]]'s page. That sentence they edited was perfectly fine as it was, but they changed it for no reason other than being the last person to have edited the page.

In doing so, they added misleading information because they clearly have no knowledge on the matter, first by saying that Jessie was disguised as Jessedia "at the time", creating a false impression that she disguised as Jessedia on one occasion when in fact this is a recurring disguise Jessie has changed into at least three times, and then by saying she was "briefly disguised". Assuming you don't know, Jessie has appeared as Jessedia for the duration of the entire Kanto Grand Festival and the Wallace Cup's Battle Stage, as well as in DP093 when she was interviewing Fantina.

This is not what one would call "briefly". This is not a one-time disguise that is blown off by Ash and his friends at the end of the episode. It's a recurring thing, and GrammarFreak01 is apparently unaware of that and changing a sentence that was completely okay with their nonsense just to accomplish their "goal". It's getting tired and I'm asking for help because these are instances in which I got involved, but who knows the amount of wrong information they have added to the tons of pages they edit daily.

It's frankly discouraging to edit a page only to have its content vandalized (inserting gibberish into pages counts as vandalism, right?) by someone who has no idea what they're doing and are just trying to get the most recent revision of a page. Also, judging by their latest edit to my talk page, they expect me to be some sort of wizard who can see into the future and tell them that their edit is wrong ''before'' they even make it. I don't know how to respond to that and I'm not the only user who has complained about GrammarFreak01's bad editing habits. Something needs to be done about this situation and that's why I'm asking you to intervene. Please help. --[[User:Mikuri|'''Mi''']][[User talk: Mikuri|'''ku''']][[Special:Contributions/Mikuri|'''ri''']] 15:12, 14 October 2018 (UTC)

I only ask that this contradiction on Mikuri's part be addressed in some way. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 22:34, 14 October 2018 (UTC)

::I started "maliciously following" GrammarFreak01's edit history '''after''' I noticed they were stalking my edits. Usually after I finished doing a major edit to a page, they would appear to unnecessarily tweak image sizes (something Tiddlywinks has warned them about) or make another one of their pointless edits. I accused them of doing that in some of my edit summaries and they decided to [[User talk:Mikuri#You're being paranoid|come to my talk page]] and call me paranoid. I could provide a laundry list of that, but I don't feel like it's needed. For one, GrammarFreak01's talk page is chock-full of messages telling them to stop with the pointless edits (and some of them were left there by you, Force Fire). In addition, I am not the only user who has complained about their edit stalking habits, as there is a [[User talk:GrammarFreak01#Edit Stalking|message left by PardescanSlowbro]] detailing the exact same behavior.
::In their defense, all GrammarFreak01 had to say is that they receive email notifications after someone edits a page they have edited in the past. So what? This is no excuse to go around and make needless edits only to have the current revision of a page. And that is the main point of this discussion: GrammarFreak01's history of wholly unnecessary edits that add nothing to our pages. Correction: sometimes their edits make the page worse, as they add wrong information about a subject they know nothing about only to have the most recent revision, as was the case with [[Yuzo]]'s page. Their concern isn't quality content and accurate information, but rather an enormous amount of unverified nonsense. I honestly don't care if my revision isn't the current one and I don't have this kind of problem with any other user in this entire wiki, '''unlike GrammarFreak01'''. Several users have contributed to pages I had worked on, and you don't see me complaining about them. But GrammarFreak01 is not here to contribute, they're here to make unnecessary edits.
::So yes, I can admit that I have edited several pages upon seeing one of GrammarFreak01's edits, but I guess this comes as no surprise considering the recent changes are there for everyone to see, and again, this was '''after''' I noticed they were stalking my edits and making unnecessary changes to them. And there's one notable difference: it was never to add information that was untrue about a subject I know nothing about. My point isn't that they are editing after me, but that those edits are needless. Editing a page after another user isn't a blockable offense, but inserting gibberish into pages is, as is edit flood and edit wars, behaviors also exhibited by GrammarFreak01. And I think it is worth comparing our contributions: I usually do a complete overhaul by adding verified information I gathered and uploading high quality images to the Archives, while GrammarFreak01 has a long and documented history of making pointless edits that add no real content to Bulbapedia and edit warring. --[[User:Mikuri|'''Mi''']][[User talk: Mikuri|'''ku''']][[Special:Contributions/Mikuri|'''ri''']] 00:34, 15 October 2018 (UTC)

== New Devolution ==
Hello Force Fire, I am a foreigner and reader on the Bulbapedia site. I only created an account in order to discuss a possible Pokémon capable of performing a Devolution, I mean Silvally (Type: Full).

Since originally this was his original form, however, he involuted to Type: Null after Faba added a helmet to his face, slowing him down. He will only be Silvally again when he destroys the helmet, that is, if it is valid I would like some moderator on the site to add this Pokémon to the article [[Devolution]]. [[User:NanayaShiki07|NanayaShiki07]] ([[User talk:NanayaShiki07|talk]]) 20:07, 10 November 2018 (~)
:Games=/=anime. I personally don't think it counts as anything. I also don't really care, mainly because the whole story behind Silvally and Type: Null, and how the latter is just the former with a helmet. It just unnecessarily makes things confusing and messes the whole concept of evolution in the franchise.

Hi there. You recently removed information relating to the Bill's Secret Garden rumour without engaging in discussion first, as I had explicitly requested on the talk pages for those articles.

Now that you have hopefully had some time to cool off, can I get you to re-appraise your behaviour? Condescending comments like "learn some patience" and referring to seeking a second opinion as "spamming" staff members do not convey respect to others, and I would appreciate it if you would apologise for these comments. Additionally, I would appreciate if you would acknowledge wrong-doing in burying the list of discussion materials I provided to show the scope of the Secret Garden rumour. Whilst you claim that you were trying to figure out how to add a collapsible section, I am genuinely unsure how I would be expected to intent for something you would not do for another hour. I'd like to encourage you to be more transparent: throughout our interactions yesterday you have seemed to think that I should know what you are doing when you provided no explanation for your actions.

I'd also like you to acknowledge that jumped the gun in issuing a warning, since you started reverting pages without offering discussion, and I have been actively trying to discuss the issues raised and establish consensus with other users. (For the record, your lone opinion isn't a consensus.) Please consider the effect that such actions will have upon others; if you disregard the views of regular users, that will have a chilling effect upon editing activity. Nobody wants to have their edits reverted immediately and then be insulted by admins, and treating people that way puts them off editing.

For the record, this isn't the first time you've been insulting towards me: [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/User_talk:Force_Fire/Archive_3#Reversion_of_my_edit] That was a long time ago, but it's kind of telling that you didn't actually apologise. Perhaps we can try a different resolution this time, where you apologise for your behaviour? --[[user:Poppy Appletree|Poppy]] 11:34, 21 November 2018 (UTC)
: I actually just looked through the edit chain associated with that post, and it's interesting how similar your behaviour is to that of 8 years ago: edit warring whilst insisting your opinion is correct without engaging with others who are telling you that you're wrong. It would probably be a good idea to learn to be more open to the views of others, and apologise more readily when you step on people's toes. Without resolution, bruised feelings fester into resentment, which can result in long-standing feuds. It's so much easier to just apologise and let things drop. --[[user:Poppy Appletree|Poppy]] 11:39, 21 November 2018 (UTC)
::Wanting a second opinion is fine, but going to three different staff member's talk page is too much. It comes off as you being impatient and needy. A staff member will take notice of the Sea Cottage talk page at some point and weigh in. You don't need to go to every (not literally) staff member's talk page.
::I "buried" it because the talk page was going to be too long, if anyone wants to see the source, they can expand it. Readability should be taken into account here. Having to go through a wall of links just to get to the newest comment is rather inconvenient. As for me taking an "hour" to add the expandable code, I didn't remember it. The expandable tag isn't something I've toyed around with much, the last time I did anything with it was probably with my userpage infobox.
::You also do not know how I edit the wiki. I don't just have one tab open, I have multiple tabs open, and they are usually reversions I pick out from the recent changes. I check those reversion and then go back to whatever it is that needs attention. Hence why it took 20 minutes to respond to the Sea Cottage talk page or one hour to figure out how to make the list expandable.
::As I mentioned on your talk page, you did edit war. You added back information that was reverted. I admit I got the timeline wrong since your edit war with Finnish was on the Trophy Garden page and your edit war with me was on the Sea Cottage page, but it still doesn't change the fact that you chose to revert both of us rather than go to our talk pages. And I was editing the Sea Cottage talk page when you reverted my edit, which by the way I had on a different tab and refreshed after a few minutes just in case you added it back again which you did taking more time. And I usually do that when I undo a reversion, because there have been many times in the past where a user just adds back information that was removed.
::Now, I'm not saying that you should know how I operate, because I don't usually go around revealing how I edit the wiki, but understand that just because I take a while to respond doesn't mean I'm ignoring you or stalling. I multitask. And that takes while, especially when I want to get through the thing that don't take a long time to do (i.e. check reversions) out of the way first.
::As for the past. The past is the past. It's history. Don't cling too much on that. And looking back, yes I was wrong, but I already said my reasons why I made the edit. Sure, I didn't apologize properly, but that's already 8 years too late.

== Berry Template update ==

With revising the TM template and the introduction of new berry varieties, I think its time the Berry pages and templates could use some updating. Here are some things I think we can have changed/included:
* Adding buy and sell value for berries
* Removing descriptions/flavor text from infobox (to make it less cluttered) and placing it in the page ala Items (so we don't have to keep using the sup/ template)
* Revising the locations box to incorporate the gameabbrev template for less words ala Items
* A new Varieties section so we can place stuff like Golden Razz and Nanab there, with subsequent GO and Let's Go info

On an unrelated note, I've created new split Fossil pages on my userspace that I think would make the info more consistent with the current direction of templates and thus easier to read. I hope you check 'em out as well. [[User:Lanthanum|Lanthanum]] ([[User talk:Lanthanum|talk]]) 21:05, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
:I also agree that the Berry template needs work, and I think that there are some userpages floating around with updated versions of the template. However, rather than a completely new template, I think the format used on the updated item pages (such as [[Potion]]) would be much simpler/better (since Berries are items as well). With this, the Effect and Bag/tag descriptions can be moved out from the infobox, making it less cluttered, but keeping the rest there instead. I also prefer the Locations template used on the general item pages, over the Berry locations template. --[[User:Wowy|'''Wowy''']][[User talk:Wowy|'''(토크)''']] 23:12, 27 November 2018 (UTC)

== Something I discovered in Wikipedia regarding documentation best practices for protected templates ==

Hello Mr. Admin,

I was reading {{wp|Wikipedia:Protection policy#Protection of templates}} and found out they have some sort of hybrid practice merging template protection with unprotected documentation. Wikipedia uses a meta-template called [[wp:Wikipedia:Template documentation|<nowiki>{{documentation}}</nowiki>]] that allows a template to have documentation transcluded from a "/doc" subpage, rather than written in the template page itself. This would allow a template to be fully protected (so that only admins can edit it during server maintenance) while still having an unprotected documentation subpage that almost anyone can edit as needed (without having to edit the template page itself).

I do not know if Bulbapedia has the <nowiki>{{documentation}}</nowiki> meta-template programmed in its software, but if it had, it would be a great improvement over the current situation where:
* sometimes one cannot supply documentation to a template page because it is protected ''(for obvious reasons)''
* one supplies documentation to an unprotected template but also inadvertently edits the template itself (by editing outside the designated <noinclude> area), potentially resulting in server stress if the template happens to be a very popular one among users ''(yes, I know, I had done that twice until you scolded me in my talk page, sorry about that)''

Incorporating <nowiki>{{documentation}}</nowiki> into Bulbapedia could allow high-traffic templates to remain protected while allowing autoconfirmed users like me to freely provide usage documentation to them by creating or editing the appropriate, unprotected "/doc" subpages and letting <nowiki>{{documentation}}</nowiki> automatically transclude the guides into the protected template pages. This is Wikipedia’s current best practice, and it should be Bulbapedia’s best practice too. BTW, [[WikiDex]], the Spanish arm of [[Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis]], has a similarly-named meta-template, [[:es:Plantilla:Uso de plantilla|<nowiki>{{uso de plantilla}}</nowiki>]], that does basically the same thing.

This could be done next time Bulbapedia needs to undergo server maintenance or software update (or any other reason that would temporarily require the server to go offline, hopefully not because of a reckless editor).

Thankee!

:Anyone can freely make a documentation on the talk page if they wanted to, no need for a separate thing.

== Templates for superscripted † and ‡ ==

I recently created templates for superscripted daggers † and ‡: [[Template:†]], [[Template:††]], and [[Template:‡]]. Since these two characters are almost always used in Bulbapedia in superscript form <nowiki>† †† ‡</nowiki> (and each instance takes 14 to 17 bytes in UTF-8), there is enough rationale for creating the templates, whose transclusions <nowiki>{{†}} {{††}} {{‡}}</nowiki> take up only 7 to 10 bytes each. Replacing every instance of <nowiki>† †† ‡</nowiki> with <nowiki>{{†}} {{††}} {{‡}}</nowiki> in the articles would result in shorter coding (desirable since shorter coding results in fewer bytes being eaten up from the server’s hard disks) and speedier page loading.

The only question remaining would be how to categorize such templates before applying the protection tag to them (given that they will be heavily used, and given that they don’t need any documentation since they take no arguments, template protection is heavily warranted).

And I see you deleted them. Why? Didn’t you get the benefits of typing less code through templates? Isn’t that the purpose of templates? Rather than typing <nowiki>† †† ‡</nowiki> in the code which wastes a lot of bytes, I would prefer typing <nowiki>{{†}} {{††}} {{‡}}</nowiki> for the same purpose (saving a lot of bytes).

"ワル" isn't used as "bad" in katakana, but words are used in different characters when they're a joke.

::Just because "waru" is written in katakana, doesn't mean it no longer means "悪" or has a different meaning. "ワル" is still "悪", it's not some nonsensical word. And yes, "悪" can be used by itself. As for the title, "waru" could also be referring to Nanu, considering his attire and the fact the title includes "oyaji" (since it's "...waru oyaji wa...").
::As for the other episodes, they're fine. Ikari can mean either Anchor and Anger, like you said, so that's a pun. "Mairimasu" ''is'' pure nonsense and could only be a pun. "Pan-paka-pan" is a trumpet fanfare with just happens to include the word "pan", and the episode was about bread.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 15:20, 13 May 2018 (UTC)

== Surge/Terrain confusion ==

There's confusion going on in the anime whether the [[Tapu]] are activating their signature abilities or using the Terrain moves. This issue has been resolved with {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Tapu Koko}}, but people are still mixing up {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Tapu Lele}} and {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Tapu Bulu}}'s Abilities with their Terrain moves. When Tapu Lele and Tapu Bulu activated their Abilities {{a|Psychic Surge}} and {{a|Grassy Surge}} respectively, users are assuming that they are using the attacks {{m|Psychic Terrain}} and {{m|Grassy Terrain}} instead. That is not the case. In ''[[SM037|Rising from the Ruins!]]'' and [[SM075]], when Tapu Lele and Tapu Bulu enter battle with Rockruff and {{AP|Lycanroc}} respectively, their Surge Abilities go off at the start of their battles. This happened with Tapu Koko as well when it battled {{AP|Pikachu}} in ''[[SM002|The Guardian's Challenge!]]'' and ''[[SM019|A Guardian Rematch!]]''. The Terrain moves can go off during any point of the battle, however the Surge Abilities can only activate when the Pokémon enter the field. Another point to show that it's their abilities activating in those episodes and not their attacks is in ''[[SM052|Revealing the Stuff of Legend!]]'' where all four Tapu used the four Terrain moves to show {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|the gang}} [[Nebby#In_the_anime|Nebby]]'s backstory. Even the anime makes mistakes as shown in SM075 where [[Acerola]] and {{Rotom}} misidentify Tapu Bulu's Grassy Surge as Grassy Terrain. --[[User:PKMNAdventurer|PKMNAdventurer]] ([[User talk:PKMNAdventurer|talk]]) 21:32, 18 May 2018 (UTC)

== Requests ==

If you would be so kind, could you please hear me out and consider doing a couple things I can't do (at least without permission, in some cases):
* Template {{template|Trainerentry}} has several handy redirects for Trainer classes that have changed their names over the years, such as "Cooltrainer" to "Ace Trainer" and "Rocket" to "Team Rocket Grunt". However, there are several Trainer class name changes that have either been missed or happened after the template was last edited, like "Rocket Grunt"{{tt|*|From Generation II}} to "Team Rocket Grunt", "Pokéfan" to "Poké Fan", "Swimmer ♂/♀" to "Swimmer", and "Clerk ♂/♀" to "Office Worker". There may be others than these, but anyway, my point is, could you please add the missing redirects to the template in the same way as the already existing redirects?
* Back in January, I suggested that the [[Pokémon League (Alola)/Title Defense]] page should be split into separate SM and USUM Title Defense pages. I've already got the USUM section ready right [[User:FinnishPokéFan92/Pokémon League (Alola)/Title Defense/Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|here]] under my own userspace in case the idea gets approved. Do you think the page should be split?
* Ummm... I recall having a third request, but it doesn't come to my mind right now. I'll come back if I can remember it.

:::Thank you for hearing me out. And indeed, I've discovered a few more redirect links that should be fixed: "Officer" and "Policeman" to "Police Officer", "Interviewer" to "Interviewers", "Socialite" to "Madame", and "School Kid" to "Schoolkid". Also, a couple of other things related to this subject:
::::In Generation II, the "Swimmer" class was classified as "Swimmer♂/♀", as in without a space, while in Generation VI, it's "Swimmer ♂/♀", as in ''with'' a space. The latter redirect is yet to be fixed.
::::In Generation II, the Trainer class that would later be known as "Schoolkid" was called "Schoolboy", hence why "Schoolboy" redirects to "Schoolkid" (or rather "School Kid", a redirect link). And then, in Generation VI, we were introduced to the separate "Schoolboy" Trainer class. As such, the Schoolboy links from Generation VI now lead to an incorrect article (similar to the "Medium" link from [[Saffron Gym]]'s page, actually, due to the Channeler class's renaming in Stadium, but that's a much more minor subject). I know this may be an impossible or at least a difficult problem to solve properly, but I decided to bring it up nevertheless, just in case.
:::The request I forgot about yesterday is actually a pretty old one: back in 2013, I made a suggestion to change the {{template|Gym Leaders of Unova}} to better separate the BW and B2W2 Gym Leaders from each other, but my edit (which you can see [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Template:Gym_Leaders_of_Unova&oldid=1865505 here]) was undone, because I hadn't talked about it beforehand. Since then, I've forgotten, remembered, and re-forgotten this multiple times, but now I've finally managed to make myself bring this long-forgotten topic up again. Could the template be edited in this or at least in a similar kind of way, or do you feel it's good enough as it is?
:::Also, I've also come up with a couple new things I'd want to propose since yesterday: could "Tide Song Hotel" and "Kantonian Gym" receive their own articles? I've already asked people's opinions about these ideas on [[Heahea City]] and [[Malie City]]'s talk pages, and at least the Tide Song Hotel split seems to have gotten some support already. Could you take these splits into consideration as well? Thank you.

:::::Ah, didn't see the subtle difference with the Swimmer trainer class. I've added the other TCs.
:::::I think the Unova Gym Leader Template is fine the way it is. Repeating the same Gym Leaders is pretty unnecessary, while I do get why, the template is about who are the Gym Leaders, separating by game isn't necessary. Plus, the three newer Gym Leaders being at the bottom of the first eight already implies that they were added later on.

:::::::Sorry to bother you again, but I've found a couple more links to fix, mainly from the Orre games:
::::::::Let's get the simpler ones out of the way first: "Researcher" and "Cipher R&D" to "Scientist".
::::::::Now, for something I'm not so sure of: the Orre-exclusive classes "Rogue" "Kaminko Aide", and "Robo Groudon" are Trainer classes used by only one person each, and they also only appear as redirect links on one page each. Hence why I'm not sure if these redirects should be removed or not. What do you think?
::::::::And finally, something a bit different, but still involving the same template. A big number of Fighting-type Trainers in FireRed and LeafGreen have their Pokémon holding Black Belts. However, the template links the "Black Belt" held item to "Type-enhancing item#Black Belt". This was understandable before, but now "Black Belt (item)" has its own article. Could you change the link to go to the item's own page now?
:::::::Thank you. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 06:59, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
::::::::Done.

:::::::::Thank you once again. However, when I looked at your edits, I also happened to notice that, similar to the Black Belt link you fixed, the held item link for "Metronome" leads to "In-battle effect item#Metronome".

::::::::::Whoopsie! Every time I think I'm done with this issue, I notice something new. The redirect link of "Poké'''F'''an" to "Poké Fan" has been fixed, but it's formatted as "Poké'''f'''an" on every pre-Generation VI page (as well as on the "Poké Fan (Trainer class)" article), and ''that'' redirect link still remains to be fixed.

I've heard about the force preview group, where you have to preview your edits before publishing them.

== "Pokémon seen" lists for movie locations ==

I wasn't too sure who to ask about this, though I have noticed that some movie-based locations have got the "Pokémon seen" lists and others don't. What is the requirement for these types of pages?. E.g. The Lake of Life has an incomplete list whilst Forina and the Tree of Beginning do not have any list, instead the Pokémon are just listed in the description section.

Also who is the authority on uploading images to the archives? I have a few images in mind that are needed to complete other pages like the Pokémon mate page.

Thanks. [[User:PardescanSlowbro|PardescanSlowbro]] ([[User talk:PardescanSlowbro|talk]]) 09:55, 28 May 2018 (UTC)
:Locations where Pokémon actually live there have the Pokémon list. Though I'm not too sure if it's needed, as most are just wild Pokémon. Maybe if they play a large role in the area, such as the titans in Tree of Beginning, then they can be listed. Otherwise, it's unnecessary.

Since then, the user has made edits to a variety of articles, and I've commonly had to edit them to rectify errors that he made. For example, [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=EP045&type=revision&diff=2809520&oldid=2806418 he very recently edited] the plot summary of [[EP045]] and [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=EP045&diff=next&oldid=2809520 this] was what I did to improve it (note that I also did some unrelated changes at the same time).

[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3APardescanSlowbro&type=revision&diff=2801230&oldid=2801220 I once tried] to inform him of some of the kinds of errors he kept making in his edits, like [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3AGrammarFreak01&type=revision&diff=2768465&oldid=2766949 you suggested], but [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3APardescanSlowbro&type=revision&diff=2801256&oldid=2801230 this] was his response.

== Harassment Procedure ==

Dear ForceFire,

I have felt personally vindicated and harassed by the user GrammarFreak01 on a continuous basis. I have pleaded to be left alone by the user and made them clearly aware of my feelings on their conduct towards myself. I was never under the assumption that any of my edits were to be untouched, though found the user in question deliberately followed and made, in some cases minor and pointless changes to over 40 pages (Episode 1 to 46 and some associated anime pages) directly after I did over recent days. The pages in question, at least the plot sections required some detail corrections but until my additions had not been looked at for several years. I had earlier requested significant action be taken against the user on Tiddlywinks page after an earlier spate of unexplained deletions to additions which were quickly reinstated by Tiddlywinks. Nothing came of this request on Tiddlywinks page, and the behaviour has persisted and worsened into vitriol that centres on GrammarFreak01's belief I referred to them as racist, though nothing of the sorts has occurred. I can no longer handle the barrage of blatancy and continuous harassment written on my discussion page by GrammarFreak01, and wish for those actions to end. At all times I have maintained my distance, and have thanked the user for their efforts when they have worked in collaboration with myself. Though their commentary and vicious attacks on my supposed sensitivities and linguistics must end. I have let things slide, despite my discontent, as to avoid further escalation. The user has been told to maintain their distance and respect previously written advices to improve their conduct, though such warnings remain unheeded and their pattern of behaviour towards me continues to intensify. I am completely naïve when it comes to Bulbapedia's bullying procedures, though require strong action be taken to ensure the harassment, belittlement and bullying that I have been exposed to by user GrammarFreak01 does not ever repeat.

I look forward to your reply, though will maintain my reserve and distance nonetheless,

: Seeing as I have been the only one to receive any commentary it is best I be moved on. My claims have been outright ignored and also denied, despite the sheer amount of evidence to say otherwise. At the very least the user in question should have been told to remain at a distance, though has immediately gone on the attack again; though of course I am making everything up and overreacting as you pointed out. As such, please delete my account, this forum is no longer suitable to myself, my temperament or my skills.

Anything to say on my page? [[User:RubyLeafGreenCrystal|RubyLeafGreenCrystal]] ([[User talk:RubyLeafGreenCrystal|talk]]) 06:39, 26 June 2018 (UTC)

== Quick query==
This is present in the trivia section on the Slowbro page:

*Slowbro's Pokédex entries state that if the Shellder is removed, it will revert to its Slowpoke form.
**This is the only mentioning of a Pokémon possibly devolving anywhere in the Pokémon games, aside from a card in the game versions of the TCG.

The first part is fine, the second point is incorrect as Exeggutor can also revert. Should the second point be deleted entirely as it both untrue and not unique or altered to include a connection with Exeggutor

e.g Slowbro and Exeggutor are the only recorded cases of Pokémon capable of devolution [[User:PardescanSlowbro|PardescanSlowbro]] ([[User talk:PardescanSlowbro|talk]]) 12:43, 28 June 2018 (UTC)

== Poké Problem characters list ==

OK, so my recent edit of [[SM080]] was taken down by you on the basis that, since the Pokémon I put on the appearance list appeared exclusively in the episode's Poké Problem, it doesn't deserve a mention (since Poké Problems are part of the episode apparently). I've also noticed that some edits on [[SM079]] also got erased on the same reason. Yet previous episodes' character lists feature characters that only appeared in the episodes' Poké Problem segments (for example Brock & Misty's siblings in [[SM042]]'s case and Harper and Sarah for [[SM071]]). As such, I have to wonder why its sometimes okay for characters and Pokémon that appeared exclusively in the Poké Problem of an episode to be mentioned on the character lists of said episode, but other times it's not OK? [[User:Pulsaro23|Pulsaro23]] ([[User talk:Pulsaro23|talk]]) 17:03, 29 June 2018 (UTC)
:Then those need to removed from their episodes and any other episodes that list PokéProblem appearances needs to be fixed. PokéProblem is a segment similar to Who's That Pokémon, it is not part of the actual episode.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 13:57, 30 June 2018 (UTC)
::While I'll agree that the Poké Problem and Who's that Pokémon segments share a similarity (the fact that they are tied to a situation/Pokémon from the episode), they are also very different. By that I mean that, while the WtP segment doesn't have any impact on the overall story of the episode, the bonus scenes shown after the Poké Problem segments expand upon the story of the episode (personally, I'd say they're very similar to the after-credits scenes form the Marvel & DC movies). For example, the Poké Problem segments for SM022 and SM057 feature scenes that resolve the episodes' ending cliffhangers, while others, like the ones for SM042 and SM030, flesh out more of the characters' personality and traits, as well as showing their relationships with other characters. As such, I'd say that, while Poké Problem segments are really part of the main episode, they still have some degree of importance, since the scenes shown at the end of those segments expand upon the main theme/story/characters of the episode (and as such, they should, as you say, "count"). Plus, in the case of the XY series, characters that appeared exclusively in its Poké TV segments were mentioned on the appearance list for its episodes (e.g. XY096, XY099, XY106 etc.). So why should the Poké TV segments receive special treatment and the Poké Problem ones not? [[User:Pulsaro23|Pulsaro23]] ([[User talk:Pulsaro23|talk]]) 14:37, 30 June 2018 (UTC)

== Usage of the word "native" ==

{{user|PardescanSlowbro}} is [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Raichu_%28Pok%C3%A9mon%29&type=revision&diff=2813914&oldid=2812285 concerned] about using the word "native" to describe the residents of [[Alola]] in the {{p|Raichu}} article, due to its connection to indigenous peoples who have been plagued with stereotypes and also its purported implicit nature as a development discourse, thus making it potentially offensive to some people. I did not see anything wrong with the word's usage, however, since it can alternatively be used as a synonym for "resident" or "citizen", as I [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3APardescanSlowbro&type=revision&diff=2813930&oldid=2813886 pointed out to him]. He's still concerned and has [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk:PardescanSlowbro&diff=next&oldid=2813930 pointed out] that official literature no longer uses the word, seemingly making it taboo, even though I have still heard it being used in the context I just described.

Do you think it is appropriate to use "native" in any shape or form here? I'm not aware of any other articles here that use the word. I do acknowledge the potential issue of indigenous peoples being offended, but I don't think anyone will be offended given the word's context in the Raichu article. What do you think? [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 06:12, 30 June 2018 (UTC)

:: You failed to acknowledge my concerns, and reverted my re-edit after GrammarFreak01 again deleted it. The latest addition aided the sentence in making it more concise, and as stated, the phrase 'the natives' is not used by the Pokémon Company in any of it literature, and probably for good measure. The term 'native' to mean local makes sense though should only be applied to describe an area or plant such as on the Vileplume page under the biology section. I would like another opinion as you have allowed a good edit to be reverted[[User:PardescanSlowbro|PardescanSlowbro]] ([[User talk:PardescanSlowbro|talk]]) 05:52, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
:::It's very clear you changed the sentence because of your dislike of the word "native", whether it was a good change or not. You made the change because there was a word you didn't like. That's why it got reverted. There's is nothing wrong with using the word. The Pokémon Company not using it doesn't mean we can't use the word. You're thinking too much into the negative connotation of the word.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 06:00, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
:::: Negative connotations is your justification? I saw the term and looked at it as an opportunity to make a positive change in line with one of Bulbapedia's major aims, inclusivity. Allowing the phrase 'the natives' is an issue as it is loaded language and may be used on other pages in much the same way. But correcting the term to something more global and neutral has become the issue, leaving aside the issues associated with using this turn of phrase in the first place, even though the original editor of course had no intention of being racist or degrading to particular demographics. By actually allowing this term to pass through with your acceptance, you are also condoning the use of this term in much the same way across potentially other articles and it may enter people's own thoughts on people of different backgrounds. Inclusivity was my motivation because of the so-called negative and very true reality for many individuals on this planet, that terms like this are harmful. I cannot imagine the editor's guide has any detail on this specific turn of phrase, though it would diffidently be designed to uphold inclusivity of all peoples.[[User:PardescanSlowbro|PardescanSlowbro]] ([[User talk:PardescanSlowbro|talk]]) 06:23, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
:::::You just admitted that the editor that added the word had no intention of being racist or degrading, if you already think that then it shouldn't be an issue.

You're looking to much into it.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 06:57, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
::::::I'm afraid you are wrong when it comes to the development discourse, it is an issue incidental or not. I am going to contact someone higher up to alert them to my concerns about the phrase, not word, "the natives", as you have plainly ignored the fact that such terminology is typically avoided due to taboo and discrimination surrounding it. Thanks [[User:PardescanSlowbro|PardescanSlowbro]] ([[User talk:PardescanSlowbro|talk]]) 07:06, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
:::::::When used correctly, "native" can also be "global and neutral". The only way it can be considered "loaded language" is if the person writing it in question ''makes'' it loaded language. I understand the history behind the word, and I also understand that the current political climate makes usage of certain words even more dangerous, but if the word has alternate meanings that are more acceptable, then I don't see why we must avoid using it, no matter how incidental the racism. If you have a problem with it, take it up with Merriam-Webster, not the admins here. If someone else does have a problem with it, we'll talk it out, see where it goes. But in the meantime, we can't simply just avoid using a certain word out of concern of potentially offending someone, even if the word in question is used in an appropriate, non-offensive context. I can't think of anyone else here who would think this word, or similarly loaded language of any kind, should be omitted in its entirety even though it's being used in a non-offensive context. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 07:11, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
::::::::Exactly. The word is not used in a derogatory manner, it is completely fine. It's all about context, and in this case, the context is not offensive. The only person that has a problem with it is you, Pardescan. And we won't change it just because one person thinks it may be offensive. I'll repeat this again, because you seem to be ignoring it, '''you are looking too much into the negative aspects of the word'''.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 07:32, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

== Template mainspace request ==

== Integration of Spaceworld Iterations of Existing Pokémon ==

I felt I would ask this here, since you're the one who linked the in-progress pages for the Pokémon Gold/Silver Spaceworld demo and you seem to know what the plans for them are, and the Gold and Silver Beta discussion page is rather cluttered and doesn't seem like a good place to catch the attention of anybody in particular.

There are a number of Pokémon added for the demo that did end up being released as official Pokémon, such as the Mareep, and Phanpy lines, Crobat, Espeon, Umbreon, Miltank, and others, who are present in the Spaceworld demo build, sometimes with different names and subtly-different designs. Additionally, there are Pokémon such as Haneko, Poponeko, and Wataneko, Gift, Blissey, Scissors, Leafeon, etc. that are very obviously earlier drafts of Pokémon that would appear in Generation II or later.

Are these Pokémon going to be integrated into the site differently compared to, say, Pokémon like Honoguma, Kurusu, Norowara, Wolfman, or Twinz, that were very clearly cut entirely and have yet to appear in any official, publicly-released Pokémon game?

As an aside, how are name labels going to be handled for Pokémon such as Kingdra, Girafarig, and Bellossom, whose final names are already present and in use in the demo? It seems to me that the sensible thing to do would be to label them with their final English names, since the names they have do have official English-language counterparts, and it would be clearer and easier to read for readers who might be unfamiliar with with the Japanese names of those Pokémon.

I personally think the page should stop excluding named routes.

I also don't see a good reason for the exclusion. I think excluding cities and numbered routes is okay because people can tell if somewhere is a city or numbered route just by looking at the name. Even then, I'm leaning toward including cities because some places (like Two Island) don't end in "City" or "Town" and aren't obviously cities.

"Faint" is the more technical term, so I try to change "knocked out" to "faint" wherever I can.

:::Neither is better, but both '''mean the same thing in spirit''' (unable to battle). It's not a necessary change. And "knocked out" is not "fan made" it's just a word used to substitute "fainted". Using a word that is not official doesn't make the word "fan made", that's just being ridiculous.

::::::::I haven't started working on the Looker evernts yet, but I haven't forgotten about them. In the meantime, though, there's an issue that has been bugging me for years now, which nobody has appparently done anything to fix yet. I'm talking about Generation VI models. Not only are we still missing most VS models from at least one set of the Generation VI core series games, we are also still missing a couple VS models: [[Archie]] and [[Zinnia]] are missing their VS models altogether (they've been using temporary ones for years now), and {{an|Brendan}} and {{an|May}} are missing their VS models with a [[Key Stone|Mega Bracelet]]. I've also wondered if the difference between the {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}}s who are striking a pose and those who aren't would warrant alternate VS models for them, but that's a lesser priority in my books.
::::::::And, as for a more recent case of the same issue, we're still missing several US/UM VS models as well, including the {{tc|Master & Apprentice}} and {{tc|Sparring Partners}} VS models and [[Gladion]]'s VS model with a Z-Power Ring. Could you bring this up with people who could possibly fix these issues? I've tried to do it myself a couple times over the years, but it has never lead to anything. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 09:02, 20 August 2018 (UTC)

:::::::::The VS sprites are something that is still ongoing, it just gets lower and lower on the priority list whenever something new comes around.

:::::::::::For a while now already, I've been planning a massive edit project, where I go over '''every single''' page with a Stadium and Stadium 2 party template, and change the number of Poké Balls in the template(s) to 3 instead of 6 (since only three of the six Pokémon are always used per battle), as well as remove the word "Pokémon" from the game name, as it isn't that way in any other game party templates either. But that's why I've come here for you this time: in preparation for this project, could you edit {{template|Party/Single}} to include codes for Stadium and Stadium 2 in the game name section? And while we're on the topic of this template, do the Battle Chatelaines alone warrant a combined code for X, Y, OR, and AS, and the few version-exclusive Battle Tree Trainers from Generation VII codes for S/US and M/UM, respectively? PS. I hope you understood that last part. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 17:51, 3 September 2018 (UTC)
:::::::::::Thanks.

{{indent}}Added Stadium/2 to the template. As for changing the Poké Ball number, I'm iffy about it. I get what you're saying, but they still have six possible Pokémon. As for the last request, I assume you mean for the party template?, if so, they're already coded in.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 07:40, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
:Yeah. Personally, I'm inclined to keep the six Poké Balls too, but, as you can see {{DL|Professor Kukui|Battle Royal Dome|here}}, for example, some user(s) apparently think that the number of shown Poké Balls should be equal to the maximum number of Pokémon that can be used from said selection of Pokémon at a time. Hence why most [[Pokémon World Tournament|PWT]] teams have six Balls, since all six Pokémon are used if the [[Triple Battle]] format is in used. Then there's also the case where the pool of possible Pokémon is greater than six, but I can understand that one.
:As for the codes, I meant as in a code of "XYORAS" turning out as "X, Y, Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire", and codes "SUS" and "MUM" turning out as "Sun and Ultra Sun" and "Moon and Ultra Moon", respectively. However, as I said, the former would only apply to the four {{tc|Battle Chatelaine}}s, while the latter ones would only apply for the few [[Battle Tree]] Special Trainers who are version-exclusive, so I wondered if that's a good enough reason for those codes to be created. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 09:26, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
::For the Kukui article, I think the line "Master Rank challenge of the Battle Royal, using three of the following Pokémon" will suffice. If they're confused, then they are just flat out not reading the article. As for the stadium articles, I think a similar line could work.

So I've been thinking about the creation of a link template to fix the issue, going something like this: <nowiki>{{form|<Pokémon>|<Form name>}}</nowiki>, which would lead to the correct section of [[List of Pokémon with form differences]], based on the contents of the second slot (the one with <Pokémon> in my example here).

Occasionally, since about last week, I've been getting these "Internal error" messages every time I try to submit an edit. I manage to get through it, but the frequency of these messages is starting to increase and I don't know what's going on. This is an example of the "Internal error" message I tend to get.

== floor order cont ==

im confused, youre saying the ordering will be RBY>GSC>FRLG>HGSS regardless of floor order? so do you mean list all rby items before gsc or put them together if there are two items on the same floor? yes, i am using common sense by not putting an item deep in the dungeon first, but what if said deep item were to be on one of the earlier floors if not the earliest? then floor order dictates i would have to list said item before many of the other items i pass by before i even get to it. thats why floor order is bad. i know were not a walkthrough, but we have to list the items in one way or another, and like you said, it should make sense atleast right? I understand that it is not a "high" priority. but if i can list in an order that makes sense, why not? is floor order really a higher priority? again im trying to say that floor order is bad. --[[User:EternalDragonX|EternalDragonX]] ([[User talk:EternalDragonX|talk]]) 12:58, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
:Yes, the game order will still be the same regardless of the template going by floor order. If an items exist in more than one set of games and is in the same location, the games get put together.
:Just so we're on the same page here, when you say "deep" you mean tucked in the furthest part of the first floor, right? Because there's no way the place I just described could be the first thing you come across. If you mean if the player traverses from the opposite end (say Victory Road, Pokemon League entrance to Route 22 entrance), then that's not really important. The location ordering should be from the player's first run through of the area (so Route 22 to Pokemon League).
:Sorting by floor order helps users see what items are available at a certain floor in one grouping. It'd actually be ''more'' confusing if the listing were to alternate between "Floor 1" and "Floor 2", especially if there's suddenly a "Basement floor" in between them.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 14:43, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
::may i suggest instead of RBY>GSC>FRLG>HGSS, that it be RBY>FRLG>GSC>HGSS? because rby frlg are basically the same games and a lot of the time they will have items that are common to all of them, but also a lot of the time frlg will have some new items, and shoving gsc items in between would not only look weird, but confusing.
::yes i mean for example tucked away in a place on the first floor that also serves as the back exit. therefore in a regular playthrough, most players would pick up said item last, since you run by every other item before it. victory road is a perfect example of what im talking about. of course i wouldnt list the items as if they were going from indigo plateau to route 22. that makes no sense. if you look at the list: https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Victory_Road_(Kanto)#Items i list guard spec ultra ball and full restore on floor 2 after overheat on floor 3. why? because those 3 items are grouped in an area in floor 2 that can only be accessible after passing through the entirety of floor 3; the area in this case being the exit. so in my head, this ordering makes perfect sense. blindly following floor order would mean i would list these items before the max revive, which again i dont think makes much sense since we talked about how they literally cant be come acrossed before the floor 3 items. --[[User:EternalDragonX|EternalDragonX]] ([[User talk:EternalDragonX|talk]]) 18:11, 4 October 2018 (UTC)
:::Any unpredictable order is bad. A reasonable person would generally expect to see everything for a floor together. If I see several items that start with something like 1F, 2F, 1F, 3F, 5F (or whatever), it just looks messy to me. Nothing that extreme may occur in the games, but that's what your logic would demand. (And less extreme examples are still messy IMO.)
:::It's not exactly hard to look back to the "end" of a floor if there were items you just couldn't get to when you passed through the first part (if floors are grouped). But if floors aren't grouped, then if I see several items starting with "2F" and then that turns into "3F", I'm gonna think those were all the items on 2F in the list, and that can be very confusing.

::::altho i still believe that 1F, 2F, 1F, 3F, 5F (or whatever) would be better if it made sense that you'd get the items that way, i have argued my point to the fullest and i can respect it if you disagree. however, still waiting on you force fire to answer my question about listing the items in region order rather than game order. aka kanto>johto>hoenn etc. over rby>gsc>frlg etc. --[[User:EternalDragonX|EternalDragonX]] ([[User talk:EternalDragonX|talk]]) 00:57, 5 October 2018 (UTC)
:::::Ordering the games by RBY>FRLG>GSC>HGSS is fine, some (or a majority of) articles are like this.
:::::So we are talking about the same thing, that brings up the question of why you are concerned about having to place an item that is deep in a dungeon as the first item. As I said, the order should be listed on the players first run through of the area. You don't need to worry about those that'll traverse the opposite way.
:::::As for items that can only be accessed via another floor, group those under all the other Floor 2 items and say in the descriptor that it requires traversing through Floor 3. Putting those items below Floor 3 makes it a touch confusing, and also a bit walkthrough-ish. I guess it's just me being condescending, but players should be able figure that stuff (having to traverse through floor 3 to get to some floor 2 items) for themselves. And ass TiddlyWinks said, listing the items by floor looks much more cleaner and easier on the eyes.
:::::Also, I saw and checked that you changed the template to be one big listing rather than separate listings. Maybe that should've been discussed first before making the edit. --[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:47, 5 October 2018 (UTC)
::::::i am concerned about having to place an item that is deep as the first item because if for example it was one of, if not the only, items on the first accessible floor (say floor 1), but not accessible unless you traverse one of the other floors (say floor 2), then we gotta list it first even tho you probably get the other items on floor 2 before it. you already answered this in your 3rd paragraph. like i said to tiddlywinks if u guys feel like floor order is cleaner then fine. i also like your solution of putting in the descriptor that it requires traversing through floor 3. i think ill do that. --[[User:EternalDragonX|EternalDragonX]] ([[User talk:EternalDragonX|talk]]) 14:33, 5 October 2018 (UTC)

:I personally see no need in listing transferable moves, it's common sense. Of course a Pokémon that only knows X move in Gen III is going to know it if you transfer it to a Gen vII game. And it's really not much of a nuisance. Want a to know a Pokémon's moveset from a specific generation? go to the separate learnlists. Want a specific move? go to the specific move article.

::::"What move can <species> ''learn'' in <game/generation>?" may be equally sensible/important, but if the pages were focused (solely/primarily) on that, there would be no need to have an "By events" subsection (to a lesser extent, probably not even "By breeding"), and I think we can all agree that this information is valuable/sensible. What I'm thinking, and what I believe Sumwun thinks, is that a "By transfer from a prior generation" subsection is equally valuable/sensible.

{{indent}}Nescientist... what do you mean by "know"? Because a Pokémon can "know" a move via transfer or events. If you have neither a generation or move in mind, then you are '''''not''''' transferring. You are just blindly going through pages for no reason. If you're question ends so vaguely at "What moves can Pikachu know in USUM", then I don't know what you're looking for because you're not explaining the method. It's either "What can Pikachu know in USUM '''via transfer'''" or "What can Pikachu know in USUM '''via events'''". If you're talking about transfers, then I've already answered that many times.

Wanting to know what "sleep inducing moves" or "highest possible power" is competitive fluff. We are not a strategy guide. Casual gamers aren't going to care about that stuff. A casual gamer is going to want to know what moves their Pokemon can know in the game they have in their hands without outside influence (i.e. transfer or events). They're not going to care about sleep inducing move or highest based power. Not everyone is a competitive player.

Sumwun, don't be difficult. I don't even know what you're talking about. If you have a '''''move''''' in mind, go to the move page and ctrl+f. If you have a '''''game''''' in mind, go to the appropriate learnset page. You are '''''not''''' going to be looking through the learnsets to look for a single move. No one is going to do that. '''''No one''''' is going to blindly look through six learnsets looking for just one move, when they can just go to the move article itself. It's not that hard. I don't think you understand what the different kinds templates are for, and assuming they're all do the same thing.

You're Golem question, like Nescientist's "sleep inducing" question is competitive fluff. Again, we are not a strategy guide. And your question was '''even more vague'''. What is the method you seek? level up? breeding? TM? what? Be more specific in your searches. I like to think users are browsing the site fully aware of what they are looking for, not exact but an idea of what they are looking for. By the sounds of it, you're browsing the site without a single thing in mind. It stops at "What can Golem learn/know" rather than specifying "What can Golem learn/know via this specific method".--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:31, 15 October 2018 (UTC)
:I already rephrased what it means when I do not specify: it means "by whatever means", which means at all, by level-up or events or transfer or ''anything'' else. Moves a Pokémon may know in USUM. I'm explicitly ''not'' saying "by transfer only" (or anything else), I don't know why you insist I need to say that; because that is not what I'm asking.
:Anyway, you seem to have understood that my specific questions (and Sumwun's) are hard to answer, not easy. (Which is good, because that's why I mentioned them; my original question is ''more general''.)
:I would object to your take that it's only competitive fluff (and I did so [[Bulbapedia talk:Project Pokédex/Structure#Adding moves available only by transfer from an earlier generation|here]]). What do you think casual gamers would be looking for? If you're excluding what you call "competitive fluff", do you think they would need "By breeding"? (If so, why?)

::If nobody goes through learnset pages for moves, what do people use them for?
::Transfer-only moves are not competitive fluff or strategy guides. They are real Pokemon information that is true even when nobody is competitive battling and is not at all fan-made, but they simply happen to be more useful to competitive battlers. If this kind of information isn't allowed on Bulbapedia, why do we have a page called "World Championships", which is pretty much the definition of competitive battling? [[User:Sumwun|sumwun]] ([[User talk:Sumwun|talk]]) 03:10, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
:::Nescientist: This discussion is about transfer moves, so I assume you're talking about and looking for transfer moves. If you're looking for "anything at all", then you're not looking for anything specific so the '''bare minimum''' is already on the species article, you do not need to click on anything else. Everything it can know at '''bare minimum''' is ''right there''.
:::I didn't even answer both of your questions. I basically said that they are irrelevant because we are not a strategy guide. We're not going to say "This Pokemon can know this move which is X power" because that is competitive fluff and strategy guide-ish. No casual gamer is going to think that specifically.
:::I just said what casual gamers are looking for "'''things their Pokemon can learn normally within the game they have in their hands, without outside influence like transfers and events'''". This includes, level up moves, TMs, and such. Breeding is game mechanic and should be listed, I don't regard it as competitive fluff.
:::Sumwun: I don't think you understand how these things work. People look through the learnsets to look for moves '''''from a specific game or generation'''''. They are looking for the '''entire moveset''', not just one move. '''The entire moveset'''. If you're looking for one move, go to the move article. Looking for a moveset for a specific game, look through the learnset. It's not that hard to understand.
:::"World Championships" is an article detailing an event. It's not detailing strategies. It's not detailing what moves would be better. It's not detailing which Pokemon would be better. It's just detailing the event. Again, it's like you have no idea what that article is about.
:::It's real information, yes. But it can be seen by going through the moveset pages, because like I said, someone looking to transfer their Pokemon over so they can have a Pokemon with a move they can no longer learn, already have a game or move in mind. They are not blindly looking through pages.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 06:23, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
::::Just going to put my 2 cents in here (I'm not strongly for nor against):
::::1) Firstly, I think an important question that needs to be answered first is: Does a section on transfer-only moves have any role outside of the competitive field? All the examples raised at the moment have all been competitive play-oriented which I agree shouldn't be Bulbapedia's focus. I can think of one question where a transfer-only moves section ''could'' help with (e.g. "A Corsola I received from a trade has Whirlpool, Sucker Punch, and Secret Power. Is it hacked?" - although it wouldn't be too hard to find this information elsewhere + it is quite a specific question).
::::2) Another point that should be discussed is that some (albeit a small number of) moves may not be obvious to some users whether they can be transferred or not - e.g. inability to transfer most HMs, ability to transfer from VC, ability to transfer certain HMs (e.g. Defog, Whirlpool)
::::3) Lastly, I should note that a transfer-only moves section is likely to be longer than most will think (esp. as most of it is made up of moves which lost their TM status in a new gen) - though the length isn't as important --[[User:Wowy|'''Wowy''']][[User talk:Wowy|'''(토크)''']] 07:01, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
:::::i don't think your example is all that great, because force fire is going to say you would just look up the move pages of each of those individual moves and ctrl f for corsola. an example i could think of which is pretty niche, but possible i think, is "im dead set on having a corsola for my playthrough of ultra sun. i want it to have the best movelist possible; im willing to transfer from prev gens to do so. is there a quick way i can get a list of all those moves without having to go through all the pages?" so imo this new section for moves learned from prev gens isnt useless; theres definitely a benefit. i think the question is, is it worth it.
:::::if you ARE going through the lists of previous gens, you already know what you ARENT looking for: every move learnable from the current gen. although i dont think going through lists for new moves requires THAT much work, i dont think the work is negligible either. --[[User:EternalDragonX|EternalDragonX]] ([[User talk:EternalDragonX|talk]]) 07:47, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
::::::Yes, I completely agree with you (maybe I should have made that more clear). I was just trying to give an example of a question which would be less competitive play-oriented (because the examples already given are not), and I as I said, the information could easily be found elsewhere --[[User:Wowy|'''Wowy''']][[User talk:Wowy|'''(토크)''']] 08:48, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
:::::::I don't know how I can be any clearer, but the question is "What are moves Pikachu can know in USUM", i.e. by whatever means; it is not, I repeat, NOT something else. The species page alone does not answer it: you need that and ''all'' previous generation learnsets, at minimum. (And that's all I'm saying, basically. I believe you, ForceFire, finally understood that.)
:::::::Wowy, I believe it would only be beneficial if you presented your opinion at [[Bulbapedia talk:Project Pokédex/Structure#Adding moves available only by transfer from an earlier generation|that other talk page]] (maybe even answered my question there). Anyway, I'm just gonna address your points here:
:::::::1. I wouldn't know how any question about moves would not have at least some relevance to competitive play; battles and moves are a central concept of the Pokémon franchise, and anyone who plays Pokémon should have some interest in competitive play. It's a different thing to talk about serious competitive battlers (like, those who maintain tier lists and whatnot), though; and I think they wouldn't really care what the answer to my two questions are (but I could be mistaken, because again, I'm not a competitive player myself). The Swinub I mentioned at that other page was purely non-competitive in that sense, too; I used it for a playthrough. As an aside, I guess the section I propose wouldn't necessarily answer your type of "legal" question; for example, a section would include both {{m|Pay Day}} and {{m|Mimic}} for Pikachu, but a Pikachu that knows both moves simultaneously would still be illegal (I think that's similar to how the current "By breeding" section cannot answer whether two Egg Moves at the same time are legal.)
:::::::2. I already said that at that other page when I explained that it is even harder to find out than I initially thought. (A "By transfer" section will ''not'' necessarily include all moves a Pokémon may have known at some earlier game (Pikachu ''can'' know {{m|Petal Dance}}, for example, but ''not'' in USUM by any means such as transfer); therefore, I also don't think Tiddlywinks' choice of the word "legacy moves" was exact for my proposal.)
:::::::3. I'm not sure it will be that long, but as you said, it shouldn't really matter.
:::::::Sumwun: I ''do'' understand what you're saying (and I agree), but you seem to derail the discussion with some of your more provocative questions (ForceFire never said Bulbapedia shouldn't cover anything that has anything to do with competitive play, for example). I hope that's not your intention, let's try to keep it simple. :)
:::::::ForceFire, moves listed under "By breeding" are not covered by the text you bolded (and by the way, in my opinion, those are about as much "competitive fluff" as "By transfer" is), "By events" even less. I think you didn't answer whether you think casual gamers would need "By breeding"!? (Or did you? I'm still - seriously - trying to get to the bottom of what you think move sections should cover and why.) [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 16:57, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
::::::::You didn't even read what I wrote, because I already answered that in my previous response. And I know it's an outright lie when you say you don't have a game or generation in mind, because the question is "What can Pikachu know in '''USUM'''". You've singled out '''USUM'''. That is that game you have in mind. And since you're not looking for anything specific, just the bare minimum (level up, TMS) and that's already on the article. All moves that Pikachu can know through '''normal gameplay (i.e. not anything specific, by any means)''' in '''USUM''' are already on the Pikachu page. The species page already has the most current (i.e. '''USUM''' or '''Gen VII''') moveset. Why are you even looking through the previous generation movesets if you're only looking for moves it can know in'''USUM'''? It's already on the species page, you don't need to click on anything else.
::::::::Breeding is a game mechanic. It's as important as TMs and level up moves. The move sections should cover all moves a Pokémon can learn '''through normal gameplay''' in the most '''recent game or generation'''. Transferring isn't '''learning through normal gameplay". Sure, neither are events, but I can look past that because those are generally one time things and should be noted.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 17:39, 16 October 2018 (UTC)
:::::::::Nescientist didn't ask for moves that could be known "through normal gameplay". He/she/it asked for moves that could be known "by whatever means", which includes transfer as well as normal gameplay. Is this not a valid question to ask?

::::::::::# I am not looking for a bare minimum. (My question was on "moves Pikachu can know in USUM [by whatever means]".)
::::::::::# What Sumwun said (and everyone, including Sumwun, should be able to see how it is a ''valid'' question to ask).
::::::::::# I am looking through previous movesets because not all moves Pikachu can know in USUM are at [[Pikachu (Pokémon)]]; Mega Kick, for example, isn't. (We've been there before, I mentioned that way up above, even rephrased it repeatedly.)
::::::::::# Yes, I do need to click on something else to check, i.e. all previous movesets (at minimum).
::::::::::# Transfer is a game mechanic.
::::::::::# In my opinion, breeding is not quite as important as TMs and level-up moves, if only because I cannot—by no means—teach (an individual) Pokémon I already own its species' Egg Moves. (It's still important, though.)
::::::::::# Finally, a "definition" of what you think move sections should cover: moves Pokémon may ''learn'' through normal gameplay within the generation, plus event moves. I'll just mention that they do already cover more than that, for example how {{p|Cubchoo}} may learn Avalanche in USUM.

:::::::::::I think the problem with the "outright lie" is that transferring a Pokemon requires 2 games. Nescientist knew that the END game would be US or UM.

== Need your help ==

Hi there! Can you please help me with [[User talk:Mikuri#Who's stalking whose edits?|this discussion]]? I am tired of explaining to them that their obsession with having the current revision of a page is more of a hindrance than a help. Aside from the examples I offered in my talk page, you can check GrammarFreak01's latest edits to [[Marian]]'s page. That sentence they edited was perfectly fine as it was, but they changed it for no reason other than being the last person to have edited the page.

In doing so, they added misleading information because they clearly have no knowledge on the matter, first by saying that Jessie was disguised as Jessedia "at the time", creating a false impression that she disguised as Jessedia on one occasion when in fact this is a recurring disguise Jessie has changed into at least three times, and then by saying she was "briefly disguised". Assuming you don't know, Jessie has appeared as Jessedia for the duration of the entire Kanto Grand Festival and the Wallace Cup's Battle Stage, as well as in DP093 when she was interviewing Fantina.

This is not what one would call "briefly". This is not a one-time disguise that is blown off by Ash and his friends at the end of the episode. It's a recurring thing, and GrammarFreak01 is apparently unaware of that and changing a sentence that was completely okay with their nonsense just to accomplish their "goal". It's getting tired and I'm asking for help because these are instances in which I got involved, but who knows the amount of wrong information they have added to the tons of pages they edit daily.

It's frankly discouraging to edit a page only to have its content vandalized (inserting gibberish into pages counts as vandalism, right?) by someone who has no idea what they're doing and are just trying to get the most recent revision of a page. Also, judging by their latest edit to my talk page, they expect me to be some sort of wizard who can see into the future and tell them that their edit is wrong ''before'' they even make it. I don't know how to respond to that and I'm not the only user who has complained about GrammarFreak01's bad editing habits. Something needs to be done about this situation and that's why I'm asking you to intervene. Please help. --[[User:Mikuri|'''Mi''']][[User talk: Mikuri|'''ku''']][[Special:Contributions/Mikuri|'''ri''']] 15:12, 14 October 2018 (UTC)

::I started "maliciously following" GrammarFreak01's edit history '''after''' I noticed they were stalking my edits. Usually after I finished doing a major edit to a page, they would appear to unnecessarily tweak image sizes (something Tiddlywinks has warned them about) or make another one of their pointless edits. I accused them of doing that in some of my edit summaries and they decided to [[User talk:Mikuri#You're being paranoid|come to my talk page]] and call me paranoid. I could provide a laundry list of that, but I don't feel like it's needed. For one, GrammarFreak01's talk page is chock-full of messages telling them to stop with the pointless edits (and some of them were left there by you, Force Fire). In addition, I am not the only user who has complained about their edit stalking habits, as there is a [[User talk:GrammarFreak01#Edit Stalking|message left by PardescanSlowbro]] detailing the exact same behavior.
::In their defense, all GrammarFreak01 had to say is that they receive email notifications after someone edits a page they have edited in the past. So what? This is no excuse to go around and make needless edits only to have the current revision of a page. And that is the main point of this discussion: GrammarFreak01's history of wholly unnecessary edits that add nothing to our pages. Correction: sometimes their edits make the page worse, as they add wrong information about a subject they know nothing about only to have the most recent revision, as was the case with [[Yuzo]]'s page. Their concern isn't quality content and accurate information, but rather an enormous amount of unverified nonsense. I honestly don't care if my revision isn't the current one and I don't have this kind of problem with any other user in this entire wiki, '''unlike GrammarFreak01'''. Several users have contributed to pages I had worked on, and you don't see me complaining about them. But GrammarFreak01 is not here to contribute, they're here to make unnecessary edits.
::So yes, I can admit that I have edited several pages upon seeing one of GrammarFreak01's edits, but I guess this comes as no surprise considering the recent changes are there for everyone to see, and again, this was '''after''' I noticed they were stalking my edits and making unnecessary changes to them. And there's one notable difference: it was never to add information that was untrue about a subject I know nothing about. My point isn't that they are editing after me, but that those edits are needless. Editing a page after another user isn't a blockable offense, but inserting gibberish into pages is, as is edit flood and edit wars, behaviors also exhibited by GrammarFreak01. And I think it is worth comparing our contributions: I usually do a complete overhaul by adding verified information I gathered and uploading high quality images to the Archives, while GrammarFreak01 has a long and documented history of making pointless edits that add no real content to Bulbapedia and edit warring. --[[User:Mikuri|'''Mi''']][[User talk: Mikuri|'''ku''']][[Special:Contributions/Mikuri|'''ri''']] 00:34, 15 October 2018 (UTC)

== New Devolution ==
Hello Force Fire, I am a foreigner and reader on the Bulbapedia site. I only created an account in order to discuss a possible Pokémon capable of performing a Devolution, I mean Silvally (Type: Full).

Since originally this was his original form, however, he involuted to Type: Null after Faba added a helmet to his face, slowing him down. He will only be Silvally again when he destroys the helmet, that is, if it is valid I would like some moderator on the site to add this Pokémon to the article [[Devolution]]. [[User:NanayaShiki07|NanayaShiki07]] ([[User talk:NanayaShiki07|talk]]) 20:07, 10 November 2018 (~)
:Games=/=anime. I personally don't think it counts as anything. I also don't really care, mainly because the whole story behind Silvally and Type: Null, and how the latter is just the former with a helmet. It just unnecessarily makes things confusing and messes the whole concept of evolution in the franchise. So I don't have any strong opinions about this.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 05:48, 13 November 2018 (UTC)

It's an extremely notorious rumour. --[[User:Poppy Appletree|Poppy]] [[User talk:Poppy Appletree|:3]] 13:43, 20 November 2018 (UTC)

Now that you have hopefully had some time to cool off, can I get you to re-appraise your behaviour? Condescending comments like "learn some patience" and referring to seeking a second opinion as "spamming" staff members do not convey respect to others, and I would appreciate it if you would apologise for these comments. Additionally, I would appreciate if you would acknowledge wrong-doing in burying the list of discussion materials I provided to show the scope of the Secret Garden rumour. Whilst you claim that you were trying to figure out how to add a collapsible section, I am genuinely unsure how I would be expected to intent for something you would not do for another hour. I'd like to encourage you to be more transparent: throughout our interactions yesterday you have seemed to think that I should know what you are doing when you provided no explanation for your actions.

I'd also like you to acknowledge that jumped the gun in issuing a warning, since you started reverting pages without offering discussion, and I have been actively trying to discuss the issues raised and establish consensus with other users. (For the record, your lone opinion isn't a consensus.) Please consider the effect that such actions will have upon others; if you disregard the views of regular users, that will have a chilling effect upon editing activity. Nobody wants to have their edits reverted immediately and then be insulted by admins, and treating people that way puts them off editing.

For the record, this isn't the first time you've been insulting towards me: [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/User_talk:Force_Fire/Archive_3#Reversion_of_my_edit] That was a long time ago, but it's kind of telling that you didn't actually apologise. Perhaps we can try a different resolution this time, where you apologise for your behaviour? --[[user:Poppy Appletree|Poppy]] 11:34, 21 November 2018 (UTC)
: I actually just looked through the edit chain associated with that post, and it's interesting how similar your behaviour is to that of 8 years ago: edit warring whilst insisting your opinion is correct without engaging with others who are telling you that you're wrong. It would probably be a good idea to learn to be more open to the views of others, and apologise more readily when you step on people's toes. Without resolution, bruised feelings fester into resentment, which can result in long-standing feuds. It's so much easier to just apologise and let things drop. --[[user:Poppy Appletree|Poppy]] 11:39, 21 November 2018 (UTC)
::Wanting a second opinion is fine, but going to three different staff member's talk page is too much. It comes off as you being impatient and needy. A staff member will take notice of the Sea Cottage talk page at some point and weigh in. You don't need to go to every (not literally) staff member's talk page.
::I "buried" it because the talk page was going to be too long, if anyone wants to see the source, they can expand it. Readability should be taken into account here. Having to go through a wall of links just to get to the newest comment is rather inconvenient. As for me taking an "hour" to add the expandable code, I didn't remember it. The expandable tag isn't something I've toyed around with much, the last time I did anything with it was probably with my userpage infobox.
::You also do not know how I edit the wiki. I don't just have one tab open, I have multiple tabs open, and they are usually reversions I pick out from the recent changes. I check those reversion and then go back to whatever it is that needs attention. Hence why it took 20 minutes to respond to the Sea Cottage talk page or one hour to figure out how to make the list expandable.
::As I mentioned on your talk page, you did edit war. You added back information that was reverted. I admit I got the timeline wrong since your edit war with Finnish was on the Trophy Garden page and your edit war with me was on the Sea Cottage page, but it still doesn't change the fact that you chose to revert both of us rather than go to our talk pages. And I was editing the Sea Cottage talk page when you reverted my edit, which by the way I had on a different tab and refreshed after a few minutes just in case you added it back again which you did taking more time. And I usually do that when I undo a reversion, because there have been many times in the past where a user just adds back information that was removed.
::Now, I'm not saying that you should know how I operate, because I don't usually go around revealing how I edit the wiki, but understand that just because I take a while to respond doesn't mean I'm ignoring you or stalling. I multitask. And that takes while, especially when I want to get through the thing that don't take a long time to do (i.e. check reversions) out of the way first.
::As for the past. The past is the past. It's history. Don't cling too much on that. And looking back, yes I was wrong, but I already said my reasons why I made the edit. Sure, I didn't apologize properly, but that's already 8 years too late.

== Berry Template update ==

With revising the TM template and the introduction of new berry varieties, I think its time the Berry pages and templates could use some updating. Here are some things I think we can have changed/included:
* Adding buy and sell value for berries
* Removing descriptions/flavor text from infobox (to make it less cluttered) and placing it in the page ala Items (so we don't have to keep using the sup/ template)
* Revising the locations box to incorporate the gameabbrev template for less words ala Items
* A new Varieties section so we can place stuff like Golden Razz and Nanab there, with subsequent GO and Let's Go info

On an unrelated note, I've created new split Fossil pages on my userspace that I think would make the info more consistent with the current direction of templates and thus easier to read. I hope you check 'em out as well. [[User:Lanthanum|Lanthanum]] ([[User talk:Lanthanum|talk]]) 21:05, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
:I also agree that the Berry template needs work, and I think that there are some userpages floating around with updated versions of the template. However, rather than a completely new template, I think the format used on the updated item pages (such as [[Potion]]) would be much simpler/better (since Berries are items as well). With this, the Effect and Bag/tag descriptions can be moved out from the infobox, making it less cluttered, but keeping the rest there instead. I also prefer the Locations template used on the general item pages, over the Berry locations template. --[[User:Wowy|'''Wowy''']][[User talk:Wowy|'''(토크)''']] 23:12, 27 November 2018 (UTC)

== Something I discovered in Wikipedia regarding documentation best practices for protected templates ==

Hello Mr. Admin,

I was reading {{wp|Wikipedia:Protection policy#Protection of templates}} and found out they have some sort of hybrid practice merging template protection with unprotected documentation. Wikipedia uses a meta-template called [[wp:Wikipedia:Template documentation|<nowiki>{{documentation}}</nowiki>]] that allows a template to have documentation transcluded from a "/doc" subpage, rather than written in the template page itself. This would allow a template to be fully protected (so that only admins can edit it during server maintenance) while still having an unprotected documentation subpage that almost anyone can edit as needed (without having to edit the template page itself).

I do not know if Bulbapedia has the <nowiki>{{documentation}}</nowiki> meta-template programmed in its software, but if it had, it would be a great improvement over the current situation where:
* sometimes one cannot supply documentation to a template page because it is protected ''(for obvious reasons)''
* one supplies documentation to an unprotected template but also inadvertently edits the template itself (by editing outside the designated <noinclude> area), potentially resulting in server stress if the template happens to be a very popular one among users ''(yes, I know, I had done that twice until you scolded me in my talk page, sorry about that)''

Incorporating <nowiki>{{documentation}}</nowiki> into Bulbapedia could allow high-traffic templates to remain protected while allowing autoconfirmed users like me to freely provide usage documentation to them by creating or editing the appropriate, unprotected "/doc" subpages and letting <nowiki>{{documentation}}</nowiki> automatically transclude the guides into the protected template pages. This is Wikipedia’s current best practice, and it should be Bulbapedia’s best practice too. BTW, [[WikiDex]], the Spanish arm of [[Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis]], has a similarly-named meta-template, [[:es:Plantilla:Uso de plantilla|<nowiki>{{uso de plantilla}}</nowiki>]], that does basically the same thing.

This could be done next time Bulbapedia needs to undergo server maintenance or software update (or any other reason that would temporarily require the server to go offline, hopefully not because of a reckless editor).

Thankee!

== Who's That Pokémon Narration ==

The episode focuses on Ash, Sophocles, and Lillie. Therefore they should be narrating the Who's That Pokémon segment in shrunken voices. From, Sean 01:29, 18 December 2018 (UTC) {{unsigned|PokéSean}}
:Who knows. But it's definitely not an error.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 06:47, 18 December 2018 (UTC)

I have a theory that the person who is the main focus gets to narrate WTPKN since the SM series. Kiawe, Lana, and Mallow did find the others so they are the main focus. Maybe Ash, Lillie, and Sophocles did narrate in shrunken voices but it was hard to hear. SM078 probably just focus on the [[Ultra Guardians]].

== Templates for superscripted † and ‡ ==

I recently created templates for superscripted daggers † and ‡: [[Template:†]], [[Template:††]], and [[Template:‡]]. Since these two characters are almost always used in Bulbapedia in superscript form <nowiki>† †† ‡</nowiki> (and each instance takes 14 to 17 bytes in UTF-8), there is enough rationale for creating the templates, whose transclusions <nowiki>{{†}} {{††}} {{‡}}</nowiki> take up only 7 to 10 bytes each. Replacing every instance of <nowiki>† †† ‡</nowiki> with <nowiki>{{†}} {{††}} {{‡}}</nowiki> in the articles would result in shorter coding (desirable since shorter coding results in fewer bytes being eaten up from the server’s hard disks) and speedier page loading.

The only question remaining would be how to categorize such templates before applying the protection tag to them (given that they will be heavily used, and given that they don’t need any documentation since they take no arguments, template protection is heavily warranted). [[User:SilSinn9801|--SilSinn (Pokémon Sun TID: 768426; Pokémon Ultra Moon TID: 123446)]] ([[User talk:SilSinn9801|talk]]) 06:07, 20 December 2018 (UTC)

And I see you deleted them. Why? Didn’t you get the benefits of typing less code through templates? Isn’t that the purpose of templates? Rather than typing <nowiki>† †† ‡</nowiki> in the code which wastes a lot of bytes, I would prefer typing <nowiki>{{†}} {{††}} {{‡}}</nowiki> for the same purpose (saving a lot of bytes).

:As I said on your talk page, there's no need for those as they're already on the character palette below the edit box.

::FYI, I don’t use the character palette, I just type their Alt+ codes instead (much easier for me and other keyboard-shortcut-savvy users, and no, I don’t plan to create a usertag for keyboard-savvy users, I would rather spend my energies on other more useful things).

:If it's not needed, then just remove it. Why hide it? Also, please don't clog up the talk page with not one but ''two'' giant templates. Place them on a userpage instead and link to it.

'''Dewgong''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ジュゴン''' ''Jugon'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Ice}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Seel}} starting at [[level]] 34.

==Biology==
Dewgong is a {{wp|pinniped}} Pokémon resembling a {{wp|sea lion}}. It has a snowy white, furry body, which renders it virtually invisible in snowy conditions. Its face has two black eyes with no visible sclerae, a black button nose and two tusks extending from its upper jaw. It has a streamlined body with two front flippers and a long flowing tail. Even in extremely cold and ice-packed waters, its tail allows it to be a swift and agile swimmer at speeds of 8 {{wp|Knot (unit)|knots}}. On top of its head is a sharp horn, which allows it to cut and plow through even the thickest of ice floes.

It lives on icebergs adrift in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|frigid ocean waters}}. It thrives in lower temperatures, becoming increasingly more active the colder the weather gets. By storing thermal energy within its body, it is completely unharmed by even the most intense freezing weather. During daylight hours, it sleeps on bitterly cold ice or under shallow water. However, at night when the temperature drops, it becomes a hunter and searches for prey. One such prey is {{p|Wishiwashi}}.

==Trivia==
* In the [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue beta]], Dewgong was originally known as "Manaty".
* Dewgong shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Seel}} and {{p|Popplio}}. They are all known as the Sea Lion Pokémon.

===Origin===
Dewgong is based on the aquatic dwelling tropical mammal, the ''{{wp|dugong}}''. Its is of the same {{wp|Sirenia|order}} as the {{wp|manatee}}, which resides in the Western Hemisphere. The four {{wp|Evolution of sirenians|known living members}} of the order all currently inhabit warm waters, a source of conflict with Dewgong's {{type|Ice}} affinity. However, an extinct closer evolutionary relative from the same family ({{wp|Dugongidae|Dugongidae}}), the {{wp|Steller's Sea Cow}}, once existed in the cold Arctic waters of the {{wp|Bering Sea}}. While it is suggested that Dewgong is partially inspired by polar {{wp|seal}}s like the {{wp|Harp Seal}}, the {{wp|Ringed Seal}}, et al.; the {{wp|Evolution of sirenians#Fossil history|Sirenian fossil record}} suggests the prominence of enlarged incisors that are absent in the modern variants of the dugong, a feature that is noticeable in Dewgong. The horn on the top of Dewgong's head may also be loosely based on the {{wp|narwhal}}.

====Name origin====
Dewgong is a portmanteau of {{wp|dew}} and ''{{wp|dugong}}'' (a relative of the {{wp|manatee}}). ''Dew'' may refer to the natural phenomenon of water vapor condensing in the presence of a cold surface. Dew formation at sufficiently low temperatures turns into {{wp|frost}}, a possible reference to Dewgong's dual type affinity.

Jugon is a corruption of ''dugong''.

Regigigas is a large, white, golem-like Pokémon with seven black circular "eyes" arranged in a specific pattern. The pattern is Regigigas's way of showing its anger; its eyes glow red when it is provoked. It has six spots that are apart from its eyes, which appear to be gemstones. These gemstones seem to represent the other three Regis, with red gems representing {{p|Regirock}}, blue gems indicating {{p|Regice}}, and silver gems representing {{p|Registeel}}. It has long arms, with three fairly human-like white fingers, and short legs that end in large mossy bushes instead of feet. Regigigas has large yellow bands on its shoulders and wrists, with a sloping section on its chest that appears to be its head and is also yellow. Its body is covered in black stripes, and it has moss growing in its back and feet. According to Sinnoh legend, Regigigas's strength enables it to move continents.

Regigigas is a skilled craftsman. It created golems out of inanimate objects and brought them to life. Regigigas is also capable of controlling these [[Legendary titans]], even if they already belong to a {{pkmn|Trainer}}. It can also survive extreme conditions as it is able to work with the boiling temperatures of magma (1300-2400 °F [700-1300 °C]) as well as frigid ice (-328 °F [-200 °C]). When Regigigas is disturbed from its slumber, it goes on a rampage and shoots powerful beams of energy. When it is befriended, however, it is calm and gentle, as seen in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]''. It is able to crush targets by using its [[signature move]], {{m|Crush Grip}}.

===In the main series===
[[File:Regigigas anime.png|thumb|250px|Regigigas in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
Regigigas debuted in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''. It lives in a temple in the mountains of [[Ten'i Village]] and had been asleep for centuries, subsequently having moss growing on its body. However, when [[Zero]] entered the [[Reverse World]] and began shattering pillars of ice within it, the glacier in front of Regigigas' temple suffered catastrophic explosions and began moving. This disturbed its slumber, rousing it into action. When [[Dawn's Buneary]] and {{TP|Dawn|Swinub}} failed to stop the glacier with the help of a large group of wild Pokémon, Regigigas appeared and commanded a herd of dozens of {{p|Mamoswine}} to hold the glacier back. Once the crisis was resolved, Regigigas returned to its temple. It was last seen using {{m|Hyper Beam}} on {{TRT}} during the ending credits.

Regigigas made its main series debut in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]'' at the [[Snowpoint Temple]]. [[J]] wanted to steal it, and a result, it was rudely awakened. It went on a rampage afterwards, using Hyper Beam on anything. It even used {{m|Confuse Ray}} to control [[Pyramid King Brandon]]'s set of {{TP|Brandon|legendary titans}} and force them to help it. At the end of the episode, it healed Brandon and his titans using {{m|Hidden Power}} to restore them from their petrification. It was then taken back to the temple to return to its slumber.

====Minor appearances====
A Regigigas appeared in Meowth's [[boss fantasy]] in ''[[DP173|Dealing With a Fierce Double Ditto Drama!]]'', alongside {{p|Giratina}}.

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

A Regigigas appeared in the beginning of ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]'', where it was summoned by a {{an|Hoopa}} Unbound in [[Dahara City]] one hundred years prior to the events of the {{pkmn|movie}}, alongside a {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}}. The three fought Hoopa, but were easily defeated and sent back through portals to their original homes.

===In Pokémon Generations===
A {{pkmn2|wild}} Regigigas appeared in ''[[PG01|The Adventure]]'', where it was awakened in the [[Snowpoint Temple]] by a nearby battle between [[Red's Pikachu]] and a wild {{p|Probopass}}. It proceeded to easily smack Probopass aside, shrug off Pikachu's {{t|Electric}} attack, and retaliate with a devastating attack of its own.

When {{adv|Platinum}}, [[Maylene]], and [[Candice]] were about to freeze in a blizzard following their defeat at the hands of [[Jupiter]], it was the one who carried them to safety. Whilst in her trance, Platinum unconsciously rolled over an empty [[Poké Ball]] to the creature, and it ended up in her bag before choosing to join {{adv|Diamond}} in an effort to stop {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}'s clash. It was later named "Reg."

* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]]: Regigigas appears as a statue, along with four {{p|Bronzong}} and four {{p|Hitmonlee}}, in [[Aegis Cave]]. When the player's team and [[Team Charm]] reach them, the statues come to life and battle the two teams. After being defeated, Regigigas rises again and smashes the ground with its fist, causing the earth outside to heave up and reveal the entrance to the [[Concealed Ruins]]. Afterwards, Regigigas can be battled again and recruited.

==Trivia==
* Due to {{a|Slow Start|its Ability}} weakening it, Regigigas has more in common with {{p|Slaking}} than it does with other [[Legendary Pokémon]]. They share the same {{t|Normal}} [[type]], the same base stat total of 670, the same base {{stat|Attack}} stat of 160, and {{Abilities}} that limit their power.
** Regigigas and Slaking also have the highest base {{stat|Attack}} stat of all {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.
* Regigigas is the only one of the [[Legendary titans]] not to have its type in its name.
** Regigigas is also the only one of the Legendary titans that does not use the remix of the Legendary titan battle theme in {{v2|Platinum}} or {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}. Instead, it uses the Sinnoh Legendary battle theme, much like in {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}.
*** In {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, however, the remix of the Legendary titan battle theme is used.
* Regigigas is the only Pokémon that can learn TMs outside of moves it learns by leveling up, but cannot learn {{m|Protect}}.
* In Platinum, by hacking to obtain {{ball|Cherish}}s, it is possible to trick the game into opening [[Rock Peak Ruins|Rock Peak]], [[Iceberg Ruins|Iceberg]], and [[Iron Ruins]]: by catching the in-game Regigigas in a Cherish Ball, the game thinks the Regigigas was obtained at a Nintendo event.
* In [[Generation IV]], Regigigas is the only Pokémon required to acquire the [[Diploma]] that cannot be obtained without the use of [[Generation III]] games or an event, even with all Generation IV titles. This limitation occurs because Regigigas cannot be obtained without the use of the other Legendary titans, which in turn cannot be obtained without either importing them from Generation III or obtaining them in Platinum with an event Regigigas.
* Regigigas is the [[List of Pokémon by height|tallest]] Normal-type Pokémon.
* Regigigas is the only [[Generation IV]] Legendary Pokémon whose Attack stat is higher than its {{stat|Special Attack}} stat.
* Regigigas is the lowest-leveled Legendary Pokémon that can be encountered in the wild, being level 1 when fought in {{game|Platinum}}.

===Origin===
Regigigas may be based on the {{wp|golem}}s of Hebrew legend. The legends cast them as servants of higher powers and are said to have writing on their heads. When the writing is removed, the creature would be weakened, or even killed in some legends. It may also be based on the {{wp|Titan (mythology)|Titans}} of Greek mythology. It could also draw some inspiration from the {{wp|Daidarabotchi}}, a gigantic {{wp|yōkai}}, due to its ability to easily manipulate mountains, while also notably sharing similarities to Ōmitsunu, a demigod who pulled land via ropes to expand his kingdom.

Regigigas also seems to have parallels to the Legendary Golem of Prague, whose immense power also intimidated people. This ultimately resulted in it being overrun and sealed away in an attic. Conversely, Regigigas was sealed in a basement. Regigigas' being sealed could also be a reference to the aftermath of the {{wp|titanomachy}}, which resulted in the titans being imprisoned away in the underworld.

====Name origin====
Regigigas is a combination of ''regis'', Latin for ''royal'', and γίγας ''gigas'', Greek for ''giant''.

'''Regirock''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''レジロック''' ''Regirock'') is a {{type|Rock}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation III]].

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

Along with {{p|Regice}} and {{p|Registeel}}, it is one of the three [[Legendary titans]] of [[Hoenn]].

==Biology==
Regirock is a large golem made of brown rocks. Regirock has an orange pattern on its face that resembles a capital letter "H". It has long arms with jutting shoulders and club-like hands, its legs are short in comparison to its body. There is a line of rocky spines running down its back. When it gets damaged in battle it will search for new rocks to repair itself. Because of this, the rocks it is made of come from several different places, which contributes to Regirock's patchwork appearance. Regirock does not seem to have a heart or brain. It generally lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon|caves}}.

==In the anime==
[[File:Regirock M08.png|thumb|250px|left|Regirock in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
===={{DL|Legendary titans (M08)|Regirock|Regirock (M08)}}====
Regirock debuted in ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'' alongside {{p|Regice}} and {{p|Registeel}}. The trio of [[legendary titans]] were guardians of the [[Tree of Beginning]], and Regirock was the first of the three to attack {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}. In the end, Regirock and the other members of its trio realized the group was not a danger and kept on with protecting the Tree of Beginning.

===={{DL|Brandon's legendary titans|Regirock|Brandon's Regirock}}====
Regirock made its main series debut in ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within!]]'', under the ownership of {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}}. He used it to battle {{Ash}} when he was being possessed by the [[King of Pokélantis]], and it was able to defeat {{AP|Sceptile}}. It reappeared in ''[[AG190|Pace - The Final Frontier!]]'', ''[[DP128|A Pyramiding Rage!]]'', and ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]''.

===Minor appearances===
A Regirock made a cameo appearance alongside the other members of its [[Legendary titans|trio]] in the opening sequence of ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', where they all fired {{m|Hyper Beam}}s that combined into an extremely powerful one.

A Regirock briefly appeared in [[PK18]], where it sent {{MTR}} and his cronies blasting off after they tried to move it out of their way.

A Regirock appeared in a flashback in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]''.

==In the manga==
[[File:Brandon Regirock Adventures.png|200px|thumb|Regirock in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Brandon's legendary titans|Brandon's Regirock}}
Regirock debuted in ''[[PS252|The Beginning of the End with Kyogre & Groudon XIV]]'', when [[Sidney]] was attempted to open the [[Desert Ruins]]. Together, {{Steven}} and {{adv|Sapphire}} created a team of four {{p|Beldum}} and Sapphire's {{DL|Sapphire (Adventures)|Relly|Relicanth}} and {{DL|Sapphire (Adventures)|Lorry|Wailord}}, thus opening up the chamber containing Regirock, as well as the other two [[Legendary titans|titans]], {{p|Registeel}} and {{p|Regice}}. Regirock used {{m|Superpower}} to stop {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}} from spreading destruction. After the battle, it and the other two titans—left weak and powerless—traveled to the mountains, where they were later caught by {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}} shortly before the opening ceremony of the {{OBP|Battle Frontier|Generation III}}.

Brandon used Regirock first in his battle with {{adv|Emerald}}, where it found {{TP|Emerald|Sceptile}}'s {{m|Leech Seed}} attack to be of minor annoyance and knocked it out right away with its {{m|Explosion}} attack. However, while the Pyramid King's attention was focused on {{p|Jirachi}}'s light coming from the horizon, Emerald was able to revitalize the fainted Sceptile with a [[Revive]] and win the battle.

===In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga===
Regirock, along with the other two [[Legendary titans]], are seen under the possession of [[Candice]]. She uses them against [[Hareta]] to test his worthiness to challenge {{p|Regigigas}} in ''[[DPA14|A Novel Test!!]]''.

* In {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, there is an unobtainable Regirock Doll programmed into the game. It may have been intended to be obtained with the [[e-Reader]].
* Regirock's in-game footprint resembles a ''{{wp|Scarabaeus sacer}}'', a real-life insect that was considered sacred by {{wp|ancient Egypt}}ians.

===Origin===
Regirock may be based on the {{wp|golem}}s of Hebrew legend. The legends cast them as servants of higher powers and are said to have writing on their heads. When the writing is removed, the creature would be weakened, or even killed in some legends.
====Name origin====
Regirock is a combination of ''regis'' (Latin for ''royal'') and ''rock''.

'''Regice''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''レジアイス''' ''Regice'') is an {{type|Ice}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation III]].

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

Along with {{p|Regirock}} and {{p|Registeel}}, it is one of the three [[Legendary titans]] of [[Hoenn]].

==Biology==
Regice is composed of {{wp|Antarctic}} ice that closely resembles a crystal. Its face has an unusual pattern consisting of seven yellow dots in a "+" formation. It has four spikes on its back. Its legs are conical and it balances its entire body on those two points. There are three fingers on each of its cylindrical arms. In the anime, Regice moves around by floating in the air. Regice cloaks itself in air that is {{tt|-328 degrees Fahrenheit|-200 degrees Celsius}}, and can survive submerged in molten lava and other extremely hot temperatures. Regice slept in a {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon|glacier}} for thousands of years.

==In the anime==

===Major appearances===
===={{DL|Legendary titans (M08)|Regice|Regice (M08)}}====
Regice debuted alongside {{p|Regirock}} and {{p|Registeel}} in ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', as one of the [[Legendary titans|three guardians]] of the [[Tree of Beginning]]. It first tried to attack {{Ash}}, but was stopped by {{OBP|Lucario|M08}}. In the end, it, together with Regirock and Registeel, realized Ash and {{ashfr}} were not a danger and went back to protect the Tree of Beginning.

===={{DL|Brandon's legendary titans|Regice|Brandon's Regice}}====
Regice made its main series debut in ''[[AG190|Pace - The Final Frontier!]]'', under the ownership of Brandon. It battled {{AP|Pikachu}} and eventually lost after a tough match. It reappeared in ''[[DP128|A Pyramiding Rage!]]'' and ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]''.

===Minor appearances===
A Regice made a cameo appearance alongside the other members of its [[Legendary titans|trio]] in the opening sequence of ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', where they all fired {{m|Hyper Beam}}s that combined into an extremely powerful one.

A Regice briefly appeared in [[PK18]], where it met Pikachu and {{MTR}}'s groups at the other side of an ice bridge and sent them into a lake.

A Regice appeared in a flashback in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]''.

==In the manga==
[[File:Brandon Regice Adventures.png|150px|thumb|Regice in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Brandon's legendary titans|Brandon's Regice}}
Regice debuted in ''[[PS252|The Beginning of the End with Kyogre & Groudon XIV]]'', when [[Glacia]] was attempting to open the [[Island Cave]]. Together, {{Steven}} and {{adv|Sapphire}} created a team of four {{p|Beldum}} and Sapphire's {{DL|Sapphire (Adventures)|Relly|Relicanth}} and {{DL|Sapphire (Adventures)|Lorry|Wailord}}, thus opening up the chamber containing Regice, as well as the other two [[Legendary titans|titans]], {{p|Regirock}} and {{p|Registeel}}. Regice used {{m|Superpower}} to stop {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}} from spreading destruction. After the battle, it and the other two titans—left weak and powerless—traveled to the mountains, where they were later caught by {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}} shortly before the opening ceremony of the {{OBP|Battle Frontier|Generation III}}.

Brandon used Regice in his battle with {{adv|Emerald}}. It beat {{adv|Crystal}}'s [[Crystal (Adventures)#Bonee|Cubone]], which Emerald had borrowed to use in the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Pyramid}}, but Regice was subsequently defeated by [[Emerald's Sceptile]] and its {{m|Iron Tail}}.

===In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga===
Regice, along with the other two [[Legendary titans]], are seen under the possession of [[Candice]]. She uses them against [[Hareta]] to test his worthiness to challenge {{p|Regigigas}} in ''[[DPA14|A Novel Test!!]]''.

* Regice shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Avalugg}}. They are both known as the Iceberg Pokémon.

===Origin===
Regice may be based on the {{wp|golem}}s of Hebrew legend. The legends cast them as servants of higher powers and are said to have writing on their heads. When the writing is removed, the creature would be weakened, or even killed in some legends.

====Name origin====
Regice is a combination of ''regis'' (Latin for ''royal'') and ''ice''.

'''Registeel''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''レジスチル''' ''Registeel'') is a {{type|Steel}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation III]].

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

Along with {{p|Regirock}} and {{p|Regice}}, it is one of the three [[Legendary titans]] of [[Hoenn]].

==Biology==
The top-half of Registeel's body is spherical and gray with a black stripe running down its "face". Its face consists of seven red dots in a hexagonal formation. It has black arms with three fingers each and cylindrical legs. While Registeel has been classified as a {{type|Steel}} Pokémon, its body is actually made of a material that is harder than any known metal. However, this material stretches and shrinks despite its hardness. Its body was tempered by pressure {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon|underground}} over thousands of years.

==In the anime==
[[File:Brandon Registeel.png|thumb|250px|Registeel in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
===={{DL|Legendary titans (M08)|Registeel|Registeel (M08)}}====
Registeel appeared alongside {{p|Regirock}} and {{p|Regice}} in ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]''. The [[legendary titans]] were guardians of the [[Tree of Beginning]]. Registeel first attacked {{TRT}}, but when they tried to flee, it attacked {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} too. After everyone was saved by {{OBP|Mew|M08}}, it, together with Regice and Regirock, realized they were not a danger and left.

===={{DL|Brandon's legendary titans|Registeel|Brandon's Registeel}}====
Registeel made its main series debut in ''[[AG186|Overjoyed!]]'', under the ownership of {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}}. {{Ash}} and {{AP|Torkoal}} battled against it but lost. It reappeared in ''[[AG190|Pace - The Final Frontier!]]'' alongside {{DL|Brandon's legendary titans|Regirock}}, where they blasted off {{TRT}}. It appeared again in ''[[DP128|A Pyramiding Rage!]]'' and ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]''.

===Minor appearances===
Registeel debuted in a brief cameo during the opening sequence of ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]''.

A Registeel made a cameo appearance alongside the other members of its [[Legendary titans|trio]] in the opening sequence of ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', where they all fired {{m|Hyper Beam}}s that combined into an extremely powerful one.

A Registeel briefly appeared in [[PK18]], where it sent {{MTR}} and his cronies blasting off after they mistook him for a floating Pokémon.

A Registeel appeared in a flashback in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]''.

==In the manga==
[[File:Brandon Registeel Adventures.png|150px|thumb|Registeel in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Brandon's legendary titans|Brandon's Registeel}}
Registeel debuted in ''[[PS252|The Beginning of the End with Kyogre & Groudon XIV]]'', when [[Drake]] attempted to open the [[Ancient Tomb]]. Together, {{Steven}} and {{Adv|Sapphire}} created a team of four {{p|Beldum}} and Sapphire's {{DL|Sapphire (Adventures)|Relly|Relicanth}} and {{DL|Sapphire (Adventures)|Lorry|Wailord}}, thus opening up the chamber containing Registeel, as well as the other two [[Legendary titans|titans]], {{p|Regirock}} and {{p|Regice}}. Registeel used {{m|Superpower}} to stop {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}} from spreading destruction. After the battle, it and the other two titans—left weak and powerless—traveled to the mountains, where they were later caught by {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}} shortly before the opening ceremony of the {{OBP|Battle Frontier|Generation III}}.

Brandon used Registeel first in his battle with {{adv|Emerald}}, where it squared off against the {{DL|Crystal (Adventures)|Monlee|Hitmonchan}} the boy borrowed from {{adv|Crystal}}. Though Registeel took considerable damage from the accumulation of many {{m|Fire Punch}}es and was eventually beaten by a strong {{m|Sky Uppercut}} attack, it managed to cause its opponent to faint as well with a clever {{m|Toxic}} maneuver. It has not been seen since.

===In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga===
Registeel, along with the other two [[Legendary titans]], are seen under the possession of [[Candice]]. She uses them against [[Hareta]] to test his worthiness to challenge {{p|Regigigas}} in ''[[DPA14|A Novel Test!!]]''.

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

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]===
Registeel appears as an occasional stage hazard in the {{DL|Pokémon League (Kalos)|Ironworks Chamber}} of the {{st|Kalos Pokémon League}} stage. Appearing rarely, it will use {{m|Stomp}} to dislodge the swords embedded in the stage, causing them to fly upwards and damage fighters. Grounded characters will also take damage from Stomp.

====Trophy information====
''This Steel-type Pokémon's hollow body is made out of an ultrahard metal, forged under pressure over thousands of years underground. It can appear in the Kalos Pokémon League stage, in the Elite Four's Steel-type chamber. Its Stomp attack will launch fighters on the ground, and even the giant swords mounted on the stage!''

==Trivia==
* In the non-English European versions of Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, Registeel's sprite was edited because of its arm. The arm's original position is reminiscent of the {{wp|Nazi}} {{wp|Nazi salute|salute}}. In {{game|Platinum}}, the sprite was changed for all regions to the continental European variation (this change was retained in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}).
* In Pokémon Ranger, Registeel was the only one of the three Legendary titans that has a Field Move. The other two have a Poké Assist instead.
* In {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}, there is an unobtainable Registeel Doll programmed into the game. It may have been intended to be obtained with the [[e-Reader]].
* Registeel is tied with {{p|Probopass}} and Shield Forme {{p|Aegislash}} for the highest {{stat|Special Defense}} base stat of all {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.
* Registeel shares both its standard and hidden {{Abilities}} with {{p|Beldum}} and {{p|Metang|its}} {{p|Metagross|evolutions}}.

===Origin===
Registeel may be based on the {{wp|golem}}s of Hebrew legend. The legends cast them as servants of higher powers and are said to have writing on their heads. When the writing is removed, the creature would be weakened, or even killed in some legends.

====Name origin====
Registeel is the combination of the words ''regis'' (Latin for ''royal'') and ''steel''.

'''Ferrothorn''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ナットレイ''' ''Nutrey'') is a dual-type {{2t|Grass|Steel}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Ferroseed}} starting at [[level]] 40.

==Biology==
Ferrothorn is a Pokémon resembling a flattened durian. Its metallic body is covered in thorns, with three black stripes circling its width, the middle stripe having triangular decorations below the eyes of Ferrothorn. Its eyes have green rims, yellow scleras, and dark pupils. There is a green spike at the top of its body, and extending around it are vine-like, long green appendages tipped with spiky metal disks. It can use these appendages to either cling to ceilings of its cave or walk around. When hanging, it can attack its prey underneath by shooting spikes.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon have the same [[Egg Group]] combination as Ferrothorn and its pre-evolved form.
* Ferrothorn is tied with {{p|Kartana}} for the highest base {{stat|Defense}} stat of all {{type|Grass}} Pokémon.
* Ferrothorn is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 489.

===Origin===
It appears to be based on {{wp|durian}} plants. Its vines resemble {{wp|flail (weapon)|military flails}}. The vines also resemble a fully-grown brier plant, just as its {{p|Ferroseed|unevolved form}} resembles a seed. It could also be based on the {{wp|tribulus}}, which is a species of thorny plants whose name, during Roman times, also meant {{wp|caltrops}}, which is a thorny metallic weapon used to puncture the feet of invading soldiers. Also, the "tri-" in tribulus means "three", which is also the same number of pods Ferrothorn has. Lastly, Ferrothorn also resembles a {{wp|flying saucer}}.

====Name origin====
Ferrothorn is a combination of "ferrous" (meaning contains iron) and ''thorn'' (a protective spine found on many plants).

Nutrey may be a combination of ''nut'' and ''rey'' (Spanish for ''king''), 鈴 ''rei'' (bell), or ''trey'' (Italian for ''three'' anglicized, referring to its three appendages).

'''Sudowoodo''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ウソッキー''' ''Usokkie'') is a {{type|Rock}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Bonsly}} when [[level]]ed up while knowing {{m|Mimic}}.

In [[Generation II]], its [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|remakes]] and {{game|Emerald}}, wild Sudowoodo can be found blocking the road in inconvenient locations in [[Johto]] and [[Hoenn]]. In order to catch one, a Trainer must first squirt it with water from either a [[Squirt Bottle|SquirtBottle]] or [[Wailmer Pail]].

==Biology==
Sudowoodo has a brown, log-shaped body with yellow spots. It has short legs with toeless feet and thin forelegs with three green spheres at the ends. It has a forked "branch" on top of its head, which is shorter on the female than on the male. Despite its appearance, Sudowoodo's composition is closer to a rock than a plant.

Sudowoodo disguises itself as a tree and stands along paths to avoid being attacked. Its camouflage fails in the winter, as its forelegs remain green unlike real trees. Sudowoodo is very weak to water and hates it, so it flees when it starts to rain. Because it holds its position for so long, its arms have become supple yet strong. It is popular with the elderly, with available magazines and fans devoted to its arm angle and length. Sudowoodo can be found living {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|in forests}}.

==In the anime==
[[File:Aether Paradise Sudowoodo.png|thumb|left|250px|Sudowoodo in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Brock's Sudowoodo]]====
{{an|Brock}}'s Bonsly evolved into Sudowoodo in ''[[DP014|Leave It To Brocko!]]''. Although needy and easily distressed as a Bonsly, as a Sudowoodo it proved a strong and reliable partner.

====Other====
Sudowoodo debuted in ''[[EP162|Type Casting]]''. Two Pokémon researchers, [[Marie]] and [[Pierre]], were arguing over the issue of whether Sudowoodo as a species is a {{t|Grass}}- or {{type|Rock}}. As a result, they pursued one in order to prove their own points to each other.

A Sudowoodo appeared in ''[[PK11|Camp Pikachu]]'', where it was pretending to be part of a tree and greedily kept some grapes for itself rather than share them with the [[Pichu Brothers]].

A {{DL|List of alternately colored Pokémon in the anime|Sudowoodo|golden Sudowoodo}} appeared in ''[[AG173|All That Glitters is Not Golden]]'', under the ownership of [[Keenan]]. He experimented on it with the hopes of giving it a resistance against the {{type|Water}} Pokémon, but he made it turn golden in color in the process. Sudowoodo, however, was unhappy with the change, and was eventually reverted to its previous type and coloration.

A Sudowoodo appeared in ''[[PK27|Pikachu and the Pokémon Music Squad]]''. It noticed the fight between {{MTR}}, {{TP|Clemont|Chespin}}, and a {{p|Torchic}} over a [[Pecha Berry]].

A Sudowoodo appeared in ''[[M21|The Power of Us]]'', under the ownership of [[Callahan]]. Callahan saved Sudowoodo by catching the {{p|Golduck}} that was chasing it. Afterwards, it followed Callahan around before being caught by him. Sudowoodo later helped solve the crisis in [[Fula City]] by firing an attack to shield the essence of {{a|Natural Cure}} from falling debris.

A Sudowoodo appeared during a fantasy in ''[[SM046|Deceiving Appearances!]]''. It and five others physically appeared in [[SM096]].

A Trainer's Sudowoodo appeared in ''[[SM066|Smashing with Sketch!]]'', where it participated in the [[Pokémon Ping-Pong tournament]].

Multiple Trainers' Sudowoodo appeared in ''[[SM090|Securing the Future!]]'', where they joined the rest of Alola in showering {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Necrozma}} with light so it could return to its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|true form}}.

A Trainer's Sudowoodo will appear in [[SM099]].

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Emerald Sudowoodo.png|thumb|200px|Sudowoodo in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
{{main|Emerald's Sudowoodo}}
In ''[[PS105|Smeargle Smudge]]'', a Sudowoodo disguises himself as a tree in the middle of {{rt|37|Johto}}, hiding from a {{p|Rhydon}}. In ''[[PS106|How Do You Do, Sudowoodo]]'' he revealed himself to {{adv|Gold}} after being hit with [[Polibo]]'s {{m|Water Gun}}. Gold convinced Sudowoodo not to run away from his problems, and Sudowoodo went on to defeat Rhydon in hand-to-hand combat. He soon joined Gold's team with the nickname Sudobo and participated in his friendly match against Silver, and later the [[Masked Man]].

A Sudowoodo that is captured by {{adv|Emerald}} first appeared in ''[[PS303|Never Spritz a Knotty Sudowoodo]]''. [[Todd Snap|The Reporter]] speculates that Sudowoodo is female due to her motherly nature towards Emerald. At the end of the {{chap|Emerald}}, she appeared to have developed a romantic relationship with Sudobo.

In ''[[PS442|Out-Odding Oddish]]'', a Sudowoodo appeared in the [[Pokéathlon]].

A Sudowoodo appears with its Trainer at the Mini-game Corner in the {{chap|X & Y}}.

A Sudowoodo belonging to the [[Aether Foundation]] appeared in a flashback in [[PASM25]].
{{clear}}

===In the Magical Pokémon Journey manga===
In ''[[PPP45|Pikachu and Clefairy's Heroic Tales]]'', {{MPJ|Pikachu}} and {{MPJ|Clefairy}} battle a Prince Sudowoodo of the Stone Kingdom because he has ordered his underlings to kidnap {{p|Bellossom|Princess Bellossom}} of the Flower Kingdom, as he intends to marry her. At the end, Bellossom agrees to become friends with him, but not to marry him right away.

===In the Pokémon Gold & Silver: The Golden Boys manga===
[[File:Gold Sudowoodo Golden Boys.png|thumb|200px|left|Sudowoodo in [[Golden Boys]]]]
In [[Pokémon Gold & Silver: The Golden Boys]], {{GnB|Gold}} and [[Whitney]] battle a giant Sudowoodo which is blocking {{rt|36|Johto}} in ''[[GB10|A Huge Mysterious Tree!!]]''. After defeating it in battle, Gold captures it, and it becomes one of his party members.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
A Sudowoodo first appeared in ''[[PM087|Sudowoodo's Toll Charges]]'' where it was blocking the way of {{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}} and his Pokémon while they were crossing a bridge. With the help of {{TP|Red|Clefairy}}, Sudowoodo was able to get its act together until the bridge that it was standing on earlier collapsed which caused it to walk away sadly.

Later, [[Professor Elm]] was shown to have one in ''[[PMHGSS01|Participate in the Pokéathlon]]''.

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

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
Sudowoodo is a Poké Float. After {{p|Wooper}} first appears, it will move down the right of the screen while Sudowoodo is on the left. Unlike most of the Poké Floats, players are not required to ever go on Sudowoodo. A trophy of Sudowoodo can be obtained after playing on the Poké Floats stage.

====Trophy information====
''An imitation {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with an aversion to battle, Sudowoodo always poses as a tree in order to avoid being attacked. Despite their arboreal appearance, these Pokémon are actually Rock-types, and therefore highly vulnerable to water. When it begins to rain, they vanish. A Sudowoodo can be found blocking {{rt|36|Johto}} in [[Johto]].''

==Trivia==
* Sudowoodo was created by [[Ken Sugimori]].<ref>http://www.nintendo.co.jp/nom/0007/gfreak/page06.html</ref>
* Sudowoodo has the same height as [[Lanturn]] (3'11"), and its {{p|Bonsly|pre-evolution}} also has the same height as Lanturn's {{p|Chinchou|pre-evolution}} (1'08").
* In [[Generation II]], only one Sudowoodo appears (from being sprayed with water from a [[Squirt Bottle|SquirtBottle]]). Similarly, in [[Generation III]], only one Sudowoodo appears—this time as the result of a spray from the [[Wailmer Pail]]. However, in [[Generation IV]], the {{player}} can get multiple Sudowoodo by evolving {{p|Bonsly}} or by catching it in grass.
* Sudowoodo's habit of disguising itself as a tree has been occasionally shown in the games.
** In the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series, Sudowoodo stand still in dungeons, in a similar manner to the Sudowoodo in [[Johto]].
** In {{g|X and Y}}, a Sudowoodo can be encountered in a [[Horde Encounter]] with four {{p|Trevenant}}.
** Starting in [[Generation VI]], Sudowoodo stand still when idle.
* In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, Sudowoodo, along with {{p|Skuntank}}, {{p|Togekiss}}, {{p|Fearow}} and {{p|Yanma}}, weighs as much as {{ga|Lucas}}.

===Origin===
Sudowoodo is based on {{wp|petrified wood}}, plants which have become fossilized over time. It also is likely based on the concept of {{wp|mimicry|animal mimicry}}, such as a {{wp|stick insect}}, for example.

====Name origin====
Sudowoodo is a combination of ''pseudo'' (prefix meaning false) and ''wood''.

Usokkie may be a combination of 嘘 ''uso'' (false) and 木 ''ki'' (''wood'' or ''tree''). It could also derive from 嘘つき ''usotsuki'' (liar).

'''Steelix''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ハガネール''' ''Haganeil'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Ground}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Onix}} when [[trade]]d holding a [[Metal Coat]]. It can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Steelix''' using the [[Steelixite]].

==Biology==
Steelix is a long, serpentine Pokémon with a silvery-gray body made up of rock-like sections, which can possess chips and scrapes from fights and tunneling. Three of those sections have long rock spikes coming out of them on either side. It has a massive head mainly made up of its large, wide jaw with sets of large square teeth inside. Along it bottom jaw are ridges: there are two pairs of ridges on a male Steelix, while there is only one pair on a female. Several small, square lumps cover the underside of its lower jaw. Its eye sockets are slightly deep set, and the eyes themselves are red. Its head has two long ridges going from the eyes up to the top of its head. The tip of its tail is conical with a blunt tip.

As Mega Steelix, its body becomes longer, almost doubles its mass, and gains more features. Mega Steelix's eyes turn blue and its lower jaw becomes more heavily armored with a round, curved shape. Additionally, a third pair of ridges appears on its bottom jaw, as well as two sharp, flat structures consisting of three conjoined projections on each side. The gray, rock-like spikes and its tail point have transformed into prism-like crystalline spikes; the segments from which the spikes protrude are much larger as well. In-between the head and individual spiked segments are smaller units, now adorned by a black spot with a blue hexagon on each side. Several metallic-looking scraps constantly rotate around its neck; these scraps react to Mega Steelix's movements and change position when attacking. The cells within its body, crystallized by the energy produced from [[Mega Evolution]], are stronger than any mineral and able to withstand any temperature. It moves incredibly slowly, but its strengthened body is also impervious to damage, and it lashes out at foes without flinching. <ref name="Mega">http://www.pokemonrubysapphire.com/en-us/pokemon/new-mega-evolutions/mega-steelix</ref>

Steelix burrows up to six-tenths of a mile underground and can be found in mountains or {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon|caves}}. It easily chews through boulders with its powerful jaws, and its eyes are capable of seeing in the dark. Exposure to underground heat and pressures alongside its iron-rich soil diet have made its body harder than diamonds.

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
[[File:Brock Steelix.png|thumb|250px|left|Steelix in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
=====[[Brock's Steelix]]=====
{{an|Brock}}'s {{p|Onix}} evolved into a Steelix sometime before ''[[AG177|Grating Spaces]]'' while it was being trained by Brock's little brother, [[Forrest]], in the [[Pewter City]] Gym. In ''[[SM043|When Regions Collide!]]'', it was revealed that it can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into Mega Steelix.

=====[[Jasmine's Steelix]]=====
Steelix debuted as one of [[Jasmine]]'s Pokémon in ''[[EP224|Nerves of Steelix!]]''. Jasmine first used Steelix to help {{Ash}} stop {{TRT}} from stealing {{AP|Pikachu}}. Then, during their [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}}, [[Ash's Cyndaquil]] managed to defeat it, winning Ash the {{badge|Mineral}}.

{{TRT}} accidentally stuck three shovels into the head of an underground Steelix while digging a pitfall trap in ''[[DP023|Faced with Steelix Determination]]''. It went on to terrorize a village of {{p|Bidoof}} until the shovels were removed through the combined efforts of multiple Bidoof, [[Ash's Staravia]], and his {{AP|Pikachu}}.

In ''[[DP108|Dealing With Defensive Types!]]'', a Steelix belonging to [[Byron]] was used in the [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} against Ash. It put up a tough fight, defeating {{AP|Buizel}}, despite its type advantage and then fought against {{AP|Chimchar}}. Despite its exhaustion from its earlier battle, Chimchar was able to defeat Steelix after a prolonged battle.

Steelix appeared in ''[[DP110|Steeling Peace of Mind!]]'' and ''[[DP111|Saving the World From Ruins!]]'', where it was one of the {{type|Steel}} Pokémon on [[Iron Island]] that had gone crazy due to [[Team Galactic]]'s actions.

==In the manga==
[[File:Jasmine Steelix Adventures.png|thumb|150px|Steelix in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Jasmine's Steelix}}
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], [[Jasmine]] used a Steelix disguised as an {{p|Onix}} in the Gym Leader's Tournament of the opening ceremonies in the Pokémon League. [[Brock's Onix]] tightened its grip on the hidden steel Pokémon, but against the unusual hardiness of its evolution, it only hurt itself, and was eventually defeated after Steelix's stone "hide" scraped off and it was exposed. Jasmine explains that because it was a newly discovered species only so far uncovered by {{adv|Crystal}}'s capture, she tried to hide its identity in the hopes that it wouldn't be treated as simple eye candy for curious spectators.

A Steelix appeared in ''[[PS179|The Last Battle XIII]]'' as one of the Pokémon sent to participate in the fight in [[Ilex Forest]].

In ''[[PS278|Put Your Beast Foot Forward]]'', [[Carr]] of the [[Team Rocket]] beast trio used one against {{adv|Red}}'s [[Poli]] as they clashed in the [[Sevii Islands]]. It was swung aside rather easily as it was interrupted in its rampage, and after a failed {{m|Iron Tail}}, it was beaten by a smart {{m|Mind Reader}} maneuver.

A Steelix was seen on Iron Island and was used for {{pkmn|training}} with [[Riley]] in ''[[PS379|Lucky Lucario I]]''.

A Steelix appeared in ''[[PS415|Double Trouble with Dialga and Palkia V]]''.

===In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga===
[[Byron]] has two Steelix which were used in the challenge in which they served as walls to prevent Hareta from getting to the top in ''[[DPA09|Challenge! The Fortress Of Steel!!]]''.

{{EF|Flint}} mentions having a Steelix in ''[[DPA24|Hareta's Heart's Desire]]'' but it was never shown.

==In the TCG==

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

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
Steelix only appears as a random trophy.
====Trophy information====
''A combination of {{t|Steel}}- and {{type|Ground}}s, Steelix are the longest Pokémon yet to be discovered, reaching over 30 feet in length. Since they live so deep under the surface of the earth, the intense pressure has made their bodies stronger than diamonds. Evolved from {{p|Onix}}, Steelix is every bit as intimidating as its relative.''

===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]===
Steelix makes a cameo appearance in the {{st|Kalos Pokémon League}} stage. When the stage transitions to the {{DL|Pokémon League (Kalos)|Ironworks Chamber}}, it can be seen in the background along with {{p|Scizor}}, {{p|Klinklang}}, and {{p|Honedge}}.
====Trophy Information====
'''NA:''' ''With a body harder than diamond, this Pokemon is well suited to digging, using its powerful jaws to tunnel around. Steelix lives deep underground - even deeper than its pre-evolution, Onix. Was it pride that made Steelix prove itself able to go farther? It's hard to say. We tried to dig around for clues, but we got tired after only 10 feet...''

'''PAL:''' ''Being harder than diamond, Steelix can crush any rock with its jaw. It can also see in pitch darkness. Its territory lies deeper than its pre-evolution, Onix, a full 1000m below the surface. Does it consider its Onix brethren to be "below" it, even though they're higher up? It's hard to say. We may have to dig a little deeper into the matter.''

===[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]===
Steelix appears as a {{sbw|Spirits (characters)|Spirit}}.

==Trivia==
* Mega Steelix is tied with {{me|Aggron}} and {{p|Shuckle}} for the highest {{stat|Defense}} stat of all Pokémon.
:* This means Mega Steelix has the highest Defense base stat and the highest single base stat of all {{type|Ground}} Pokémon, and is tied with Mega Aggron for highest Defense base stat and highest single base stat of all {{type|Steel}} Pokémon as well as the highest single base stat of all Mega Evolved Pokémon.
* Steelix is shown floating above the ground in all console games, rather than, like its pre-evolved form, resting on the ground.
* All Steelix in the anime have used the move {{m|Iron Tail}} (excluding cameos).
* Steelix is the only Pokémon in the {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}} games that can hurt the [[Capture Styler]] simply by touching the line.
* Mega Steelix is the [[List of Pokémon by height|tallest]] {{type|Steel}} and the tallest {{Type|Ground}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Steelix, like Onix, is most likely based on a combination of a {{wp|snake}} and {{wp|earthworm}}, or possibly an {{wp|amphisbaenidae|amphisbaenid}}. It may also been based on the {{wp|European dragon|wyrm}}, a type of dragon that has been presented as limbless and burrowing.

====Name origin====
Steelix is a combination of ''steel'' and ''onyx''. It may also refer to ''helix'' (with regards to its serpentine body).

Haganeil may be a combination of 鋼 ''hagane'' (steel) and ''nail'' or ''tail''.

'''Snubbull''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ブルー''' ''Bulu'') is a {{type|Fairy}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]]. Prior to [[Generation VI]], it was a {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Granbull}} starting at [[level]] 23.

==Biology==
Snubbull is a pink, bipedal, bulldog-like Pokémon with blue polka dots covering its body. It has loose skin that drapes to cover the lower part of its body, giving it the appearance of a dress. There is a small, blue ruff around its neck. It has a pronounced underbite, but it still has powerful jaws. Additionally, it has two earflaps that are flat, curved, and tipped with black, and a small, shiny black nose. Its feet are beige with three toes and a circular pink paw pad, while its arms are short and stubby.

Snubbull, [[EP127|as seen in the anime]], possesses the ability to use keen sense of smell to track things down. Despite this Pokémon's fierce looking face, it is very playful and affectionate making it a popular companion among women. According to [[The Complete Pokémon Pocket Guide]], it is also very devoted and loyal. It is not aggressive and tends to prefer to scare away its opponent rather than fight. However, it is saddened that others run from its frightening appearance. Snubbull wander around {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|urban areas}}.

==Trivia==
* The [[route]] that Snubbull swarms on in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} is also its [[National Pokédex]] number: {{rtn|209|Sinnoh}}.
* Snubbull and its {{p|Granbull|evolution}} share their {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Clefairy}} and {{p|Clefable}}. They are all known as the Fairy Pokémon.
* In early merchandise for ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', including the ''{{book|Pikachu's Vacation}}'' novelization, Snubbull's name is misspelled as '''Snubble'''.
** This also happens on the title card for ''[[EP124|Snubbull Snobbery]]''.
* Snubbull is named "Buru" in the [[Pokémon the First Movie Trading Cards]].

===Origin===
Snubbull is based on a {{wp|bulldog}}. Its {{pkmn|category}} and {{t|Fairy|type}} may reference the {{wp|Cù Sìth}}, a mythological creature in {{wp|Celtic mythology}} whose name literally translates to "dog fairy". Snubbull's typing and appearance also resemble a {{wp|goblin}}.

====Name origin====
Snubbull may be a combination of ''snub'' (a feeling of disdain, or a flattened nose) and ''{{wp|bulldog}}''. It may also be a play on ''snuggle''.

Bulu is a shortening of ''bulldog''.

'''Snubbull''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ブルー''' ''Bulu'') is a {{type|Fairy}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]]. Prior to [[Generation VI]], it was a {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Granbull}} starting at [[level]] 23.

==Biology==
Snubbull is a pink, bipedal, bulldog-like Pokémon with blue polka dots covering its body. It has loose skin that drapes to cover the lower part of its body, giving it the appearance of a dress. There is a small, blue ruff around its neck. It has a pronounced underbite, but it still has powerful jaws. Additionally, it has two earflaps that are flat, curved, and tipped with black, and a small, shiny black nose. Its feet are beige with three toes and a circular pink paw pad, while its arms are short and stubby.

Snubbull, [[EP127|as seen in the anime]], possesses the ability to use keen sense of smell to track things down. Despite this Pokémon's fierce looking face, it is very playful and affectionate making it a popular companion among women. According to [[The Complete Pokémon Pocket Guide]], it is also very devoted and loyal. It is not aggressive and tends to prefer to scare away its opponent rather than fight. However, it is saddened that others run from its frightening appearance. Snubbull wander around {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|urban areas}}.

==Trivia==
* The [[route]] that Snubbull swarms on in {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} is also its [[National Pokédex]] number: {{rtn|209|Sinnoh}}.
* Snubbull and its {{p|Granbull|evolution}} share their {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Clefairy}} and {{p|Clefable}}. They are all known as the Fairy Pokémon.
* In early merchandise for ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', including the ''{{book|Pikachu's Vacation}}'' novelization, Snubbull's name is misspelled as '''Snubble'''.
** This also happens on the title card for ''[[EP124|Snubbull Snobbery]]''.
* Snubbull is named "Buru" in the [[Pokémon the First Movie Trading Cards]].

===Origin===
Snubbull is based on a {{wp|bulldog}}. Its {{pkmn|category}} and {{t|Fairy|type}} may reference the {{wp|Cù Sìth}}, a mythological creature in {{wp|Celtic mythology}} whose name literally translates to "dog fairy". Snubbull's typing and appearance is also similar to a {{wp|goblin}}.

====Name origin====
Snubbull may be a combination of ''snub'' (a feeling of disdain, or a flattened nose) and ''{{wp|bulldog}}''. It may also be a play on ''snuggle''.

Bulu is a shortening of ''bulldog''.

'''Granbull''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''グランブル''' ''Granbulu'') is a {{type|Fairy}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]]. Prior to [[Generation VI]], it was a {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Snubbull}} starting at [[level]] 23.

==Biology==
Granbull is a purple, bipedal, bulldog-like Pokémon. It has a prominent lower jaw with two long, fang-like growths. Its upper jaw has two small fangs. The jaws are so heavy that the Pokémon has trouble keeping its head up. On the sides of its head are flat, curved ears, and its small nose is black. There is a black collar around its neck with two small white markings on it. Around its wrists are two black band markings, and it has a short tail.

Despite its fierce appearance, it is actually very timid. Unless Granbull is startled, it will not bite indiscriminately. If attacked, it will flail about to fend off its attacker. Granbull wanders around {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|urban areas}}.

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
[[File:Officer Jenny Granbull.png|thumb|250px|left|Granbull in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
=====[[Madame Muchmoney's Granbull]]=====
A female Snubbull ran away from its home and followed {{TRT}} (and by extension, {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}) around the [[Johto]] [[region]] for a short while. She evolved into Granbull in ''[[EP175|The Trouble with Snubbull]]'', marking the species' main series debut in the process, and then returned to her owner, [[Madame Muchmoney]].

=====Other=====
[[Cassidy]] has a Granbull that appeared in ''[[DP065|Sleight of Sand!]]'', where it battled against [[Jessie's Seviper]]. In the midst of the battle, it was taken out by [[Dawn's Piplup]] and a wild {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Hippopotas}}.

{{an|Dawn}} took on a {{pkmn|Coordinator}}, named [[Mario]], who used a Granbull during the {{to|Lilypad}} {{pkmn|Contest}} in ''[[DP146|Dressed for Jess Success!]]''. It was used against Dawn and {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}} but was soon defeated.

An [[Officer Jenny]] from [[Akala Island]] uses a Granbull, which appeared in ''[[SM070|The Young Flame Strikes Back!]]''. It stopped [[Viren]] and [[Viren's henchmen|his henchmen]] from escaping after Officer Jenny arrived to arrest them for attempting to destroy [[Paniola Ranch]].

====Minor appearances====
Granbull debuted in the opening sequence of ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown: Entei]]'', under the ownership of a {{pkmn|Trainer}} named {{OBP|Lisa|M03}}. Lisa used Granbull in her battle against {{Ash}}, only for it to be defeated by {{AP|Totodile}}.

{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|original|Johto}}

===In Pokémon Generations===
A soldier's Granbull appeared in ''[[PG18|The Redemption]]'', during a fantasy of a story from the past. It was one of the many Pokémon fighting in the great war of [[Kalos]] 3,000 years previously. Two additional Granbull were later seen petrified after the [[ultimate weapon]] was used by [[AZ]] to end the war.

==In the manga==
[[File:Green Granbull Adventures.png|thumb|130px|Granbull in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
A Granbull appeared in ''[[PS101|Teddiursa's Picnic]]'', where it was stealing Pokémon to get attention as its jaw was dislocated. When {{adv|Gold}} accidentally knocks its jaw into relocation, it happily returns all the Pokémon it took.

A Granbull appeared in ''[[PS179|The Last Battle XIII]]'' as one of the Pokémon sent to participate in the fight in [[Ilex Forest]].

{{adv|Green}}'s {{p|Snubbull}} evolved into Granbull in ''[[PS288|Give It Your Best, Blastoise]]''.

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]]: {{mdc|Granbull|1}} hangs around [[Pokémon Square]]. Granbull evolved from {{p|Snubbull}} without realizing what was happening, though it enjoyed its new appearance after getting over the initial shock. This event alerted the rest of the characters that evolution was now possible.

==Trivia==
* Granbull and its {{p|Snubbull|pre-evolution}} share their {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Clefairy}} and {{p|Clefable}}. They are all known as the Fairy Pokémon.
* As the Ability {{a|Quick Feet}} did not exist until [[Generation IV]], a Snubbull with either {{a|Intimidate}} or {{a|Run Away}} will always evolve into a Granbull with Intimidate in [[Generation III]] games. This means that in Generation III, Granbull is the only Pokémon with an Ability that evolves from a Pokémon with one of two possible Abilities that shares to Granbull's Ability.
* Granbull is the first Pokémon to evolve on-screen in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series.

===Origin===
Granbull is based on a {{wp|bulldog}}. Its {{pkmn|category}} and {{t|Fairy|type}} may reference the {{wp|Cù Sìth}}, a mythological creature in {{wp|Celtic mythology}} whose name literally translates to "dog fairy". Granbull's typing and appearance also may reference {{wp|goblin}}s, {{wp|orc}}s, or other mythical races of grotesque appearance.

====Name origin====
Granbull and Granbulu may be a combination of ''grand'' and ''bulldog'' or ''bully'' (referencing its tendency to scare foes with its fangs or even bite them). It may also reference ''grumble'' (referring to its grumbling, growling tendency).

'''Typhlosion''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''バクフーン''' ''Bakphoon'') is a {{type|Fire}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Quilava}} starting at [[level]] 36. It is the final form of {{p|Cyndaquil}}.

==Biology==
Typhlosion is a {{wp|badger}}-like Pokémon with a bulky yet agile body. Typhlosion is classified as a quadruped, but it is capable of bipedal movement and is frequently depicted standing on its hind legs. When its mouth is open, it shows its thick tongue and sharp canines. It has a short snout and small eyes and ears. Typhlosion's face, underside, arms, and legs are a shade of cream, and its back is dark blue. On Typhlosion’s rear, there is a spiky, coarse fringe of fur. Across the back of its neck, there are several red spots that produce fire in battle. Typhlosion will make anything go up in flames when angered, and generates shimmering heat from its body when it is ready for battle. Though it is rare in the wild, some can be found living on {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grasslands}}.

==In the anime==
[[File:Typhlosion M21.png|220px|thumb|left|Typhlosion in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Jimmy's Typhlosion]]====
Typhlosion debuted in ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'', under the ownership of {{jo|Jimmy}}. It was his [[starter Pokémon]], which he got as a {{p|Cyndaquil}} from [[Professor Elm]].

====Other====
A Typhlosion appeared in ''[[AG055|Poetry Commotion!]]'', under the ownership of [[Mr. Moore]], [[Flannery]]'s grandfather. Mr. Moore sent out his Typhlosion to stop {{TRT}} from making off with [[Flannery's Torkoal]]. It reappeared in a flashback in ''[[AG056|Going, Going, Yawn]]''.

===Minor appearances===
Typhlosion made its main series debut in ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School]]'' at the [[Pokémon Trainers' School]], where it was seen battling a {{p|Feraligatr}}.

Two Typhlosion appeared in ''[[M21|The Power of Us]]''. One was among the Pokémon that could be caught during the [[Pokémon Catch Race]], while the other appeared during a flashback.

==In the manga==
[[File:Exbo.png|thumb|220px|Typhlosion in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Exbo}}
{{adv|Gold}}'s Quilava, named Exbo, evolved into Typhlosion in ''[[PS148|Lively Lugia III]]'' to protect {{adv|Silver}}, {{adv|Crystal}}, and himself from {{p|Lugia}}. Afterwards, his larger size allowed him to be a method of faster travel (akin to Crystal's [[Archy|Arcanine]]), and with his increased power allowed Gold to hold his own and even overpower the [[Masked Man]].

Another Typhlosion was seen under [[Ultima]]'s ownership in ''[[PS272|Old Ultima Puts Them to the Test]]'', displaying its {{a|Blaze}} Ability alongside her {{p|Meganium}} with its {{a|Overgrow}}. Doing so damaged much of the surrounding landscape, as well as a large girth of the ship nearby, earning the old woman much ire.

In ''[[PS442|Out-Odding Oddish]]'', a Typhlosion appeared in the [[Pokéathlon]].

==Trivia==
* Typhlosion is the only fully evolved {{type|Fire}} [[starter Pokémon]] of a single [[type]].
* Typhlosion and {{p|Charizard}}, along with {{p|Cyndaquil|their}} {{p|Charmander|respective}} {{p|Quilava|evolutionary}} {{p|Charmeleon|lines}}, have exactly the same base stats in the same distribution.
**{{p|Infernape}} also shares the same base stat total, though its individual stats differ.
* Despite being introduced in [[Generation II]], Typhlosion did not make its core anime series debut until ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School!]]'', which was a generation later.
* Typhlosion shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Quilava}} and {{p|Entei}}. They are all known as the Volcano Pokémon.
** Additionally, they all learn {{m|Eruption}}.

===Origin===
The appearance of this Pokémon is mainly based on the {{wp|honey badger}}. It may also be reminiscent of {{wp|weasels}} and {{wp|wolverine}}s, as well as {{wp|bear}}s. It has a long and agile body, like weasels, though it is significantly larger and thicker than its pre-evolutions.

====Name origin====
Typhlosion is a combination of ''{{wp|typhoon}}'' and ''explosion''. Its name is also similar to the word ''typhus'', a Greek word meaning 'hazy' (which would describe the effect that the intense heat Typhlosion generates has on the air surrounding it), and it may also be related to ''tephra'' (volcanic material). It could also derive from ''{{wp|Typhon}}'', a monster in Greek mythology who fathered many other monsters with his wife, {{wp|Echidna (mythology)|Echidna}}; {{p|Cyndaquil}} resembles an {{wp|echidna}}.

Bakphoon is a combination of 爆風 ''bakufū'' (blast) and ''typhoon''.

'''Quilava''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''マグマラシ''' ''Magmarashi'') is a {{type|Fire}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Cyndaquil}} starting at level 14 and evolves into {{p|Typhlosion}} starting at level 36.

==Biology==
Quilava is a slim quadruped Pokémon. The top half of its body is blue, while the lower half is cream. Its ears are triangular with red insides, and it possesses a rounded nose and red eyes. It has five red spots on its body that can project flames: two in a somewhat exclamation-mark shape on its forehead and three lined up horizontally on its rear. The fire coming from its head and rear can be launched as a flame attack. It also uses gusts of superheated air as a battle technique. Quilava's fur is non-flammable, so it can withstand flame attacks. Quilava tends to be rare in the wild, but can sometimes be found living on {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grasslands}}.

==In the anime==
[[File:Dawn Quilava.png|255px|thumb|Quilava in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Ash's Quilava]]====
{{Ash}}'s {{p|Cyndaquil}} evolved into Quilava in ''[[DP182|An Old Family Blend!]]'' after it fought one of {{TRT}}'s [[Team Rocket's mechas|mechas]]. He used it during his {{pkmn|battle}} with [[Nando]] at the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]], where it battled Nando's {{p|Armaldo}}; the battle resulted in a tie.

====[[Dawn's Quilava]]====
{{an|Dawn}}'s {{p|Cyndaquil}} evolved into Quilava in [[SS024]] in order to fight off a swarm of {{p|Ariados}}. She used it during a battle with Ash in ''[[BW093|Goodbye Junior Cup - Hello Adventure!]]'', where it went up against [[Ash's Pikachu]]. However, the battle was called off without a winner.

====Other====
Quilava debuted in ''[[EP262|You're A Star, Larvitar]]'', where {{Ash}} witnessed a {{pkmn|Trainer}} {{pkmn|training}} with it for the [[Silver Conference]]. He also considered for a short time of getting his Cyndaquil to evolve as a way of training it for the Silver Conference, following Cyndaquil's defeat against [[Satchel]]'s {{p|Magby}}.

A Quilava appeared in ''[[EP267|Love, Pokémon Style!]]'', under the ownership of [[Macy]]. She used it against Ash during the Silver Conference, but it was defeated by {{AP|Squirtle}}'s {{m|Hydro Pump}}. Later, in ''[[EP268|Tie One On!]]'', she used it in her battle against [[Vincent|Jackson]], where it battled his {{p|Poliwhirl}} and won.

In ''[[AG128|Shocks and Bonds]]'', [[Clark]], a Trainer that likes to conduct battles like a symphony, used a Quilava and {{p|Charizard}} to go up against [[Ash's Grovyle]] and {{AP|Glalie}}. Despite the type disadvantage, Ash's Grovyle defeated Clark's Quilava.

A Quilava appeared in ''[[DP029|The Champ Twins!]]'', under the ownership of [[Ryan and Bryan|Ryan]]. It was used in a battle against Ash and {{an|Dawn}} alongside a {{p|Croconaw}} belonging to Ryan's twin brother Bryan. The twins were able to defeat [[Ash's Turtwig]] and [[Dawn's Piplup]] due to the latter two having a lack of teamwork, but they were defeated in the rematch.

===Minor appearances===
A Quilava appeared in ''[[AG122|Deceit and Assist]]'', under the ownership of a [[Pokémon Coordinator]] participating in the [[Hoenn Grand Festival]].

A Quilava appeared in ''[[DP010|Not on MY Watch Ya Don't!]]''.

Two {{pkmn|Trainer}}s' Quilava appeared in ''[[SM034|A Crowning Moment of Truth!]]'', where they were among the Pokémon attending Wela Fire Festival.

A Trainer's Quilava appeared in ''[[M21|The Power of Us]]'', where it was competing in the [[Pokémon Catch Race]].

==Trivia==
* Quilava shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Typhlosion}} and {{p|Entei}}. They are all known as the Volcano Pokémon.
** Coincidentally, they all learn {{m|Eruption}}.

===Origin===
Its appearance is similar to most animals in the {{wp|weasel}} family, resembling {{wp|stoat}}s in particular based on its lack of a tail and the fur on its upper body being significantly darker than that on its underbelly. Its appearance is also quite close to a {{wp|paca}}, a South American rodent with a slender body, spotted skin and tiny ears, as well as a {{wp|badger}}.

====Name origin====
Quilava is a combination of ''quill'' (a needle-like hair) and ''lava'' (extrusive molten rock).

Magmarashi is a combination of ''magma'' and 山荒 ''yama-arashi'' ({{wp|porcupine}}).

'''Cyndaquil''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヒノアラシ''' ''Hinoarashi'') is a {{type|Fire}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Quilava}} starting at [[level]] 14, which evolves into {{p|Typhlosion}} starting at level 36.

Along with {{p|Chikorita}} and {{p|Totodile}}, Cyndaquil is one of the three [[starter Pokémon]] of [[Johto]] available at the beginning of {{game5|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}.

==Biology==
Cyndaquil is a small, bipedal Pokémon with bluish fur on top of its body, and a milky color on the underside. Cyndaquil seems to be a composite of features from the {{wp|echidna}} and the shrew. The echidna features are the flames from its back, while its general body shape is shrew-like. Its eyes are often closed and it has a long, thin snout. It lacks claws on its forelimbs, but has a single claw on each hind foot. Cyndaquil is usually timid by nature and often curls into a ball when intimidated. It has four red spots on its back from which its flames erupt. Cyndaquil is capable of defending itself using these flames. The fire grows more powerful as Cyndaquil becomes more angry or defensive. Though rare in the wild, few can be found living on {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grasslands}}.

==In the anime==
===Major appearances===
====[[Ash's Cyndaquil]]====
[[File:Ash Cyndaquil.png|thumb|250px|Cyndaquil in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
{{Ash}} {{pkmn2|caught}} a {{AP|Cyndaquil}} in ''[[EP141|Good 'Quil Hunting]]''. During its early days on Ash's team, Cyndaquil would easily become tired out (e.g. waiting a while for the flames on its back to ignite so it could use {{type|Fire}} attacks). Eventually, Cyndaquil overcame its shortcomings.

Its squinty eyes are adorable."''

==Trivia==
* Cyndaquil is the only Fire-type starter Pokémon that retains a pure Fire type throughout its entire evolutionary line.

===Origin===
Its appearance is based on the {{wp|echidna}} or {{wp|mouse}}, but it also has traits of {{wp|shrew}}s, {{wp|anteater}}s, and {{wp|tenrecs}}, such as its long snout. Its closed eyes may be a reference to baby {{wp|honey badger}}s, as its {{p|Typhlosion|fully evolved form}} is based on one. When its fire is lit, the fire resembles the quills of the {{wp|porcupine}}.

====Name origin====
Cyndaquil is a combination of ''cinder'' (ashes) and ''quill'' (referring to needle-like hairs).

Hinoarashi may be a combination of 火 ''hi'' (fire) and 山荒 ''yama-arashi'' ({{wp|porcupine}}). It can be taken to mean 火の嵐 ''hi no arashi'' (storm of fire).

'''Hydreigon''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サザンドラ''' ''Sazandora'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dark|Dragon}} [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Zweilous}} starting at [[level]] 64. It is the final form of {{p|Deino}}.

==Biology==
Hydreigon is a three-headed, draconic Pokémon with six thin, black wings that each end in two points on its back. It has a fuchsia-colored collar on its neck which surrounds its head. The main head is dark blue and has black eyes with fuchsia pupils. Its two hands are also black and each one harbors a head; these are similarly blue with black eyes with small fuchsia collars on the inside. Its abdomen has two fuchsia stripes and its feet appear atrophied, having no claws or defined soles and two or three small toes. Its tail also sports a fuchsia stripe and ends with a black tuft. Hydreigon is a violent, destructive Pokémon. It will attack anything that moves, determining it a foe. Its heads can consume anything.

==In the anime==

A Hydreigon appeared in ''[[BW100|A Village Homecoming!]]'', under the ownership of [[Shannon]], having evolved from one of the two {{p|Zweilous}} she was raising. Soon after evolving, Hydreigon went on a rampage, but it later calmed down thanks to {{an|Iris}}'s efforts. It reappeared in a flashback in ''[[BW141|Best Wishes Until We Meet Again!]]''.

A Hydreigon appeared in ''[[BW106|Strong Strategy Steals the Show!]]'' and ''[[BW107|Cameron's Secret Weapon!]]'', under the ownership of {{un|Cameron}}.

Cameron later used Hydreigon during his match against [[Virgil]] in ''[[BW108|A Unova League Evolution!]]'', where it was shown on the scoreboard as being defeated.

===Minor appearances===
A {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s Hydreigon appeared in ''[[XY077|A Relay in the Sky!]]'', where it was seen competing in the [[Pokémon Sky Relay]]. It was in a team also consisting of {{p|Masquerain}} and {{p|Butterfree}}.

A Trainer's Hydreigon appeared in a flashback in ''[[XY126|Valuable Experience for All!]]'', where it was seen being defeated by [[Remo]]'s {{me|Garchomp}} in the [[Lumiose Conference]].

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

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]===

====Trophy information====
'''NA:''' ''Unlike Scizor with its pretend heads, Hydreigon's three heads are real! The center head is the brains of the operation, while the left and right ones are there to consume everything they can. We wouldn't be surprised to see Hydreigon at an eating contest, but there has to be a rule against having three mouths on one body...?''

'''PAL:''' ''Unlike Scizor's head-like claws, the heads at the end of Hydreigon's arms are the real deal. Only the head in the middle does any thinking - the other two are just for gobbling up anything in sight. If you think about it, Hydreigon would probably win any eating contest hands down, but... maybe having three mouths is against the rules...''

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
{{spoilers}}
* {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity}}: {{mdc|Hydreigon|gti}} was at first described by {{mdc|Munna|gti}} as an evil Pokémon who is pure destruction in Pokémon form, devours everything in his path, and said to be the cause of the world's balance being disrupted. In truth, Munna's words about him were all a lie to trick the player, and Hydreigon is really the physical embodiment of the Voice of Life, the form of the world's will to live, who called upon humans to save the Pokémon world as no Pokémon could hope to save it. He originally first contacted the player through a dream before Munna intercepted the vision, and by using Hydreigon's voice, she tricked the player into thinking Hydreigon was evil.

==Trivia==
* Of all the Pokémon that evolve by leveling up, Hydreigon evolves from its pre-evolution later than any other Pokémon, at level 64.
* Hydreigon shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Sharpedo}}. They are both known as the Brutal Pokémon.
* Hydreigon is the only [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]] to have {{t|Dragon}} as its secondary type rather than its primary type.

===Origin===
Hydreigon is based on the {{wp|Yamata no Orochi}}, including its red eyes. Its three heads and Shiny coloration resemble the {{wp|Slavic dragon#East Slavic|Zmey Gorynych}}. It may also incorporate elements of the {{wp|Lernaean Hydra}}. These mythological serpents may have inspired Hydreigon's {{t|Dark}} typing, as all three are deadly antagonists, with the Zmey Gorynych in particular {{wp|Dobrynya Nikitich#Dobrynya and the Dragon|shown to be deceptive}}.

According to interviews with [[Ken Sugimori]] in ''Nintendo Dream'', Hydreigon and its evolutionary family were originally intended to be cyborg dragons with aspects of {{wp|tank}}s. The Pokémon were scrapped until late in development, when they were revived and remade to be based on Yamata no Orochi. The tank tread-like markings on Hydreigon's body are a remnant of this design. Although Yamata no Orochi typically has eight heads in mythology, Hydreigon was designed with fewer heads to appear less confusing.

====Name origin====
Hydreigon may be a combination of ''{{wp|Lernaean Hydra|hydra}}'', ''drei'' (German for ''three''), and ''dragon''. It may also incorporate {{wp|hydrogen}}, a gas highly flammable under normal conditions.

Sazandora may be a combination of 三 ''san'' (three) and ''dragon'' or ''hydra''.

'''Hydreigon''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サザンドラ''' ''Sazandora'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dark|Dragon}} [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Zweilous}} starting at [[level]] 64. It is the final form of {{p|Deino}}.

==Biology==
Hydreigon is a three-headed, draconic Pokémon with six thin, black wings that each end in two points on its back. It has a fuchsia-colored collar on its neck which surrounds its head. The main head is dark blue and has black eyes with fuchsia pupils. Its two hands are also black and each one harbors a head; these are similarly blue with black eyes with small fuchsia collars on the inside. Its abdomen has two fuchsia stripes and its feet appear atrophied, having no claws or defined soles and two or three small toes. Its tail also sports a fuchsia stripe and ends with a black tuft. Hydreigon is a violent, destructive Pokémon. It will attack anything that moves, determining it a foe. Its heads can consume anything.

A Hydreigon appeared in ''[[BW100|A Village Homecoming!]]'', under the ownership of [[Shannon]], having evolved from one of the two {{p|Zweilous}} she was raising.

Cameron later used Hydreigon during his match against [[Virgil]] in ''[[BW108|A Unova League Evolution!]]'', where it was shown on the scoreboard as being defeated.

===Minor appearances===
A {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s Hydreigon appeared in ''[[XY077|A Relay in the Sky!]]'', where it was seen competing in the [[Pokémon Sky Relay]]. It was in a team also consisting of {{p|Masquerain}} and {{p|Butterfree}}.

A Trainer's Hydreigon appeared in a flashback in ''[[XY126|Valuable Experience for All!]]'', where it was seen being defeated by [[Remo]]'s {{me|Garchomp}} in the [[Lumiose Conference]].

{{main|Hydreigon (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]===

====Trophy information====
'''NA:''' ''Unlike Scizor with its pretend heads, Hydreigon's three heads are real! The center head is the brains of the operation, while the left and right ones are there to consume everything they can. We wouldn't be surprised to see Hydreigon at an eating contest, but there has to be a rule against having three mouths on one body...?''

'''PAL:''' ''Unlike Scizor's head-like claws, the heads at the end of Hydreigon's arms are the real deal. Only the head in the middle does any thinking - the other two are just for gobbling up anything in sight. If you think about it, Hydreigon would probably win any eating contest hands down, but... maybe having three mouths is against the rules...''

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
{{spoilers}}
* {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity}}: {{mdc|Hydreigon|gti}} was at first described by {{mdc|Munna|gti}} as an evil Pokémon who is pure destruction in Pokémon form, devours everything in his path, and said to be the cause of the world's balance being disrupted. In truth, Munna's words about him were all a lie to trick the player, and Hydreigon is really the physical embodiment of the Voice of Life, the form of the world's will to live, who called upon humans to save the Pokémon world as no Pokémon could hope to save it. He originally first contacted the player through a dream before Munna intercepted the vision, and by using Hydreigon's voice, she tricked the player into thinking Hydreigon was evil.

==Trivia==
* Of all the Pokémon that evolve by leveling up, Hydreigon evolves from its pre-evolution later than any other Pokémon, at level 64.
* Hydreigon shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Sharpedo}}. They are both known as the Brutal Pokémon.
* Hydreigon is the only [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]] to have {{t|Dragon}} as its secondary type rather than its primary type.

===Origin===
Hydreigon is based on the {{wp|Yamata no Orochi}}, including its red eyes. Its three heads and Shiny coloration resemble the {{wp|Slavic dragon#East Slavic|Zmey Gorynych}}. It may also incorporate elements of the {{wp|Lernaean Hydra}}. These mythological serpents may have inspired Hydreigon's {{t|Dark}} typing, as all three are deadly antagonists, with the Zmey Gorynych in particular {{wp|Dobrynya Nikitich#Dobrynya and the Dragon|shown to be deceptive}}. Hydreigon's design and destructive, evil behavior are reminiscent of {{wp|King Ghidorah}}.

According to interviews with [[Ken Sugimori]] in ''Nintendo Dream'', Hydreigon and its evolutionary family were originally intended to be cyborg dragons with aspects of {{wp|tank}}s. The Pokémon were scrapped until late in development, when they were revived and remade to be based on Yamata no Orochi. The tank tread-like markings on Hydreigon's body are a remnant of this design. Although Yamata no Orochi typically has eight heads in mythology, Hydreigon was designed with fewer heads to appear less confusing.

====Name origin====
Hydreigon may be a combination of ''{{wp|Lernaean Hydra|hydra}}'', ''drei'' (German for ''three''), and ''dragon''. It may also incorporate {{wp|hydrogen}}, a gas highly flammable under normal conditions.

Sazandora may be a combination of 三 ''san'' (three) and ''dragon'' or ''hydra''.

'''Onix''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''イワーク''' ''Iwark'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Ground}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Steelix}} when [[trade]]d holding a [[Metal Coat]].

==Biology==
Onix resembles a giant chain of gray boulders that become smaller towards the tail. It has a rocky spine on its head and a pair of black eyes right beneath it. This Pokémon has a magnet in its brain that serves as an internal compass. Its body absorbs many hard objects, making its body very solid. As it grows older, it becomes more rounded and smoother, eventually becoming similar to black diamonds.

Onix tunnels under the ground at over 50 miles (80 kilometers) per hour, which causes tremors and a terrifying roar that echoes a long way. The massive, winding tunnels it leaves behind are used as homes by {{p|Diglett}}. Onix loves to eat the large boulders it encounters while burrowing underground. As seen in the [[Pokémon Stadium series]], Onix is capable of rotating its head, or any part of its body, in a full 360 degrees. It is a very aggressive Pokémon that will constantly attack humans and other Pokémon when in pain, as seen in [[EP071|the anime]]. Onix can be found in mountains and {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|caves}}, though it prefers underground tunnels with little light.

==In the anime==
===In the main series===

[[File:Shiny Onix.png|250px|right|thumb|{{Shiny}} Onix in the anime]]
====Major appearances====
=====[[Brock's Onix]]=====
{{an|Brock}}'s Onix debuted in ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]''. He used it in his {{pkmn|journey}}s in [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] before giving it to his little brother, [[Forrest]], in ''[[SS001|A Family That Battles Together Stays Together!]]''. At some point before ''[[AG177|Grating Spaces]]'', it evolved into a {{p|Steelix}}.

=====[[Bruno's Onix]]=====
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} encountered a {{pkmn2|giant}} {{TP|Bruno|Onix}} in ''[[EP071|To Master the Onixpected]]''. It was on a rampage until [[Bruno]] managed to pull a {{p|Sandslash}} out from two of its boulders. Bruno captured the Onix afterwards.

=====[[Crystal Onix]]=====
''[[EP087|The Crystal Onix]]'' featured a special Onix whose body is made out of glass crystal. Ash and {{ashfr}} helped a glass sculptor named [[Mateo]] search for it because Mateo believed it would help inspire him to be better at his craft.

=====Other=====
Onix debuted in ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''. It was the next Pokémon a {{pkmn|Trainer}} chose after the opponent's {{p|Gengar}} put their {{p|Nidorino}} to {{status|sleep}}.

{{OBP|Drake|Orange League}}, the [[Orange Crew Supreme Gym Leader]], was revealed to own an Onix in ''[[EP111|Hello, Pummelo!]]''. He used it in the second round in the [[Orange League]] championship match against {{Ash}}; it battled {{AP|Squirtle}} and was defeated.

Multiple Onix appeared in ''[[EP149|Tunnel Vision]]'', where they resided in the [[Onix Tunnel]] and attacked anyone who attempted to pass through it. They were temporarily put to sleep by {{an|Jigglypuff}}'s {{m|sing}}ing, but were eventually awakened by {{TRT}}.

An Onix, dubbed "King Onix", appeared in ''[[AG137|Hooked on Onix]]''. Team Rocket tricked King Onix into thinking Ash and {{ashfr}} were going to destroy his kingdom. When Ash managed to convince King Onix that he and his friends weren't bad by defeating it in a battle, Team Rocket tried to steal the royal Rock Snake Pokémon, but their plan was foiled, as usual.

[[Roark]]'s Onix debuted in ''[[DP015|Shapes of Things to Come]]'', where it was used in his [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} against [[Paul]]. It battled {{TP|Paul|Elekid}} before being defeated by {{TP|Paul|Chimchar}}. It later battled {{Ash}} in ''[[DP016|A Gruff Act to Follow!]]'', where it defeated {{AP|Turtwig}} and {{AP|Pikachu}}. It was used again during Ash's rematch with Roark in ''[[DP018|O'er the Rampardos we Watched!]]'', where Pikachu was able to defeat Onix.

A rampaging Onix appeared in ''[[DP046|A Maze-ing Race!]]''.

Multiple wild Onix appeared in ''[[BW087|Expedition to Onix Island!]]'', with one of them being {{Shiny}}. They were residents of a {{OBP|Deserted Island|BW087|deserted island}}, and Ash and his friends wanted to see the Shiny Onix.

An Onix appeared in ''[[XY020|Breaking Titles at the Chateau!]]'', under the ownership of [[Grant]]. It was used at the [[Battle Chateau]] in a battle against [[Viola]]'s {{p|Surskit}} which Onix was able to win.

==Trivia==
* Onix is the only unevolved Pokémon that is used in the [[Pokémon World Tournament]] by Trainers beyond the right attendant, being used in all of [[Brock]]'s teams.
* The Onix line is the only one which can be completely acquired with [[in-game trade]]s. However, this is only possible in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, in which the player can trade {{p|Bellsprout}} for Onix in [[Violet City]], and any Pokémon for Steelix in [[Olivine City]].
* The [[Lagging Tail]] [[held item]] resembles the end of Onix's tail.

===Origin===
Onix is most likely based on a combination of a {{wp|snake}} and {{wp|earthworm}}, or possibly an {{wp|amphisbaenidae|amphisbaenid}}. It may also been based on the {{wp|European dragon|wyrm}}, a type of dragon that has been presented as limbless and burrowing.

====Name origin====
Onix is a corruption of ''{{wp|onyx}}'' (a mineral).

Iwark may be a combination of 岩 ''iwa'' (rock) and スネーク ''snake''.

'''Haxorus''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''オノノクス''' ''Ononokus'') is a {{type|Dragon}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Fraxure}} starting at [[level]] 48. It is the final form of {{p|Axew}}.

==Biology==
Haxorus is a bipedal Pokémon with a dark yellow-green covering on its back and most of the front. It has black skin covering its torso, tail tip, and thighs, as well as red talons and claws. Its large tusks, which resemble scythes, are black and edged in red, and are located on its upper jaw on the side of its mouth. These tusks, which can cut steel beams, are unbreakable. Its medium-sized eyes are red with black pupils. Ridged plate-like skin travels from its back to its head region. It has solid armor and the legs and tail have a dividing line pattern. Its arms are quite small, with three digits with two elliptical triceps and biceps and circular elbows. Its hands are small and circular with small red claws. Its legs are formidable and strong with three toed feet with a red talon on each toe. It is generally friendly, but it is very territorial.

A Haxorus appeared in ''[[BW117|Team Plasma's Pokémon Manipulation!]]'', under the ownership of [[Rhoder]]. It caused a rampage in the city due to it being under the control of [[Colress]]'s machines at the time. Haxorus returned to normal when one of the machines was destroyed by [[Aldith]]'s {{p|Liepard}}'s {{m|Shadow Ball}}.

====Minor appearances====
Haxorus debuted in ''[[BW006|Dreams by the Yard Full!]]'' in {{TP|Iris|Axew}}'s dream, where it first evolved into {{p|Fraxure}} and then into the Axe Jaw Pokémon.

==Trivia==
===Origin===
Haxorus' tusks may draw inspiration from {{wp|Dicynodont}}s, tusked reptiles with thick hides from the {{wp|Permian}} era, most likely ''{{wp|Placerias}}''. Its tusks also resemble {{wp|battle axe}} blades. Haxorus also resembles various different {{wp|kaiju}}, giant monsters popular in Japanese media franchises.

====Name origin====
Haxorus is a combination of ''hack'' (to chop or cut down), ''axe'', and σαῦρος ''saurus'' (Greek for ''lizard'').

Ononokus may be a combination of 斧 ''ono'' (axe), 戦く ''ononoku'' (to tremble), and アックス ''akkusu'' (axe).

== Manectric ==

Please stop adding that Manectric may be based off a baboon, because Manectric is very clearly not an ape. If you're referring to its snout, that that's a very big stretch, considering other canids also have long snouts. Again, do not add it in, continue to do so falls under edit warring and is a blockable offense. Thank you.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 05:40, 25 December 2018 (UTC)

:I disagree, it's not just the snout, but the stance and prominent head crest are reminiscent of multiple species of baboon. I believe these similarities are sufficient to justify claiming that Manectric may be, at least partially, based on a baboon. In addition, Lickilicky and especially Lickitung do indeed resemble giant salamanders, particularly in their facial structure. [[User:Swil Phift|Swil Phift]] ([[User talk:Swil Phift|talk]]) 19:23, 25 December 2018 (UTC)
::There's also the jarring reality that Manectric is not simply an ape or monkey. "Stance" is a vague description and can apply to any other canines, not just baboons, and it's also nothing like a baboon's stance. The crest is also a stretch, having one thing in common is not enough to say that a Pokémon is based on something. Lickitung and Lickilicky are the same, having just one thing in common is not enough to say that they're based off giant salamanders.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:37, 26 December 2018 (UTC)

The issue here is that pretty much any Pokémon's basis is subjective; some have much more obvious inspirations than others. With Manectric and Lickitung, their designs are vague enough that multiple people can see a different basis. The "Origin" section is ultimately all personal opinion, that's why people put "may be," "resembles," or "is possibly" in their additions to it, because again, we don't know for sure what many Pokémon are and aren't supposed to be, it's up to one's individual opinion. [[User:Swil Phift|Swil Phift]] ([[User talk:Swil Phift|talk]]) 20:56, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
:Yes, origin sections are mostly speculation, but at the same time, they should make sense. Having simply one thing in common with something is simply too weak of a connection. You could say that Manectric is based of a porcupine because of its spikes, it just does not make sense since everything else about it is clearly canine.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 03:33, 27 December 2018 (UTC)
Again, even what makes sense for a basis is entirely speculation. Manectric may very well have at least some features of a porcupine. While I find it to be unlikely, it's entirely subjective and may make sense to somebody else. Personally, I think Manectric looks like a Sphinx, but while you may not see it, others could. It stands to reason, then, that as many possible inspirations should be included, so that a Pokémon's design can be looked at from as many angles as possible, not just yours. And as a reply to your other concern, Gligar being based off of the Facehugger isn't a very big stretch. In addition to having the behavior of one, its Japanese name is literally just Giger with an "L" in it. Combine this with the fact that Giger's work enjoys significant popularity in Japan, and it seems likely that what we're looking at with Gligar is a reference, albeit one that was mangled in translation, but a reference nonetheless. And this I can draw back to my previous point: I personally see very little resemblance to a gargoyle or a Mecopteran in Gligar's design at all, in behavior or appearance. Again though, the connection is up to personal opinion, and many such connections are likely based off of singular shared features. I don't know why you seem to want to quash all of my suggestions, but I would appreciate it if you would allow me to submit my perspective on things. [[User:Swil Phift|Swil Phift]] ([[User talk:Swil Phift|talk]]) 04:08, 27 December 2018 (UTC)
::I used the porcupine example as why you shouldn't just take one aspect of a Pokemon and compare it to something else. "Spikes" is not something that is exclusive to porcupines, there are several other animals that have spikes on them. You're not going to say that the spikes could be from literally all animals with spikes on them.
::The Sphinx comparison can work simply because of Manectric's head crest and it being a four-legged creature. But it falls apart because the Sphinx is a '''feline''' creature, while Manectric is ''very clearly'' a '''canine'''. If you're going to use physical attributes, you can only go as far as what we are given, and that is a canine creature, so we compare it to whatever canines are out there. Not a monkey. You can't look at Manectric and say that it is a monkey, it's clearly not.
::Gligar's name matching Giger's is pure coincidence. Also, copyrighted works cannot be used as basis for origin (cause, you know, copyright laws), unless it is specified to be based off of it. Gligar's behavior of latching onto something isn't something that is ''exclusive'' to facehuggers, I'm sure that there are insects that latch onto things. Doesn't mean the Gligar is based of an insect.
::Gligar being "based" off a gargoyle makes sense in that it is a Ground type, has wings, and has bat like features. Three things to help solidify the Gargoyle's connection to the facehugger's measly ''one''. You can't just base something off one thing, it's '''too weak'''. You can't say that because Gligar is purple, it may be based on things that are purple. Or that it has teeth, so it may be based on things that have teeth. It's too vague and too weak to use as a connection.
::Origin sections are indeed speculation and are from the perspective of many users, but they need to make sense. They need to have some solid evidence to make the claim. One thing in common is simply too weak. It's basically seeing things that aren't there. I don't revert all your edits, just the ones that too vague and are simply large stretches.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 05:54, 28 December 2018 (UTC)
The problem with that assessment is that a lot of Pokemon basises can be reduced to a single feature. And again, what is and isn't a "large stretch" is still ultimately opinion. And so yes, I could feasibly look at Manectric and say it's a monkey, because to me, and to others as well, it resembles one. And it's entirely possible for a Pokemon to be based off of a copyrighted character, especially in Japan where copyright laws are not as stringent. Just look at Tyranitar. Very obviously a Godzilla reference, by your (flawed) logic, the section of that article stating that Tyranitar may be based off of Godzilla should be erased. Furthermore, I have presented multiple similarities to facehuggers that Gligar possesses, not just one. The name, the behavior, and even its silhouette are all similar to a facehugger, and again, given to popularity of Giger's work in Japan and the other pop culture references in Japan, it seems unlikely to be entirely coincidental. And to claim that what I'm saying is somehow like saying that Gligar is "based off of things that are purple", is, frankly, absurd. That's a very vague statement that does nothing to determine a specific basis, but what I am doing is specifying a possible inspiration. Nor did I ever claim Gligar's behavior was unique to facehuggers, it's just their signature trait and would make sense if a creature inspired by one was also known to do so. ''Stop twisting my words.''

I'm not sure where this whole "can't be based off of copyrighted characters" thing comes from. Is that a wiki rule? Because it seems doubtful that such an arbitrary restriction would exist, especially considering some Pokemon are indeed references to copyrighted characters. You're basically treating your opinion as law, and that's unfair. I'm not making ridiculous, nonsensical claims. I, like you, am using evidence to construct a possible basis for a character. Even if I am wrong, we will likely never know what many Pokemon are supposed to be based off of. Why not, then, include as many perspectives as we can? Obviously some claims are indeed far-fetched, but none of the claims I have made are super absurd. Even if it's a little bit of a stretch, that shouldn't make an opinion completely illegitimate.

That's a very vague statement that does nothing to determine a specific basis, but what I am doing is specifying a possible inspiration. Nor did I ever claim Gligar's behavior was unique to facehuggers, it's just their signature trait and would make sense if a creature inspired by one was also known to do so.

I'm not sure where this whole "can't be based off of copyrighted characters" thing comes from. Is that a wiki rule? Because it seems doubtful that such an arbitrary restriction would exist, especially considering some Pokemon are indeed references to copyrighted characters. You're basically treating your opinion as law, and that's unfair. I'm not making ridiculous, nonsensical claims. I, like you, am using evidence to construct a possible basis for a character. Even if I am wrong, we will likely never know what many Pokemon are supposed to be based off of. Why not, then, include as many perspectives as we can? Obviously some claims are indeed far-fetched, but none of the claims I have made are super absurd. Even if it's a little bit of a stretch, that shouldn't make an opinion completely illegitimate.

'''Deino''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''モノズ''' ''Monozu'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dark|Dragon}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Zweilous}} starting at [[level]] 50, which evolves into {{p|Hydreigon}} starting at level 64.

==Biology==
Deino is a small blue quadrupedal Pokémon with black fur covering its head and neck, concealing everything but its mouth from view. The fur around its neck also has six purple spots encircling it, which resemble bruises. The hair on the top of its head takes the shape of a single small horn. It also has a short tail that appears to be bitten off. As it is blind, it will bite at and eat anything that moves, and it has the vigor and energy to bite constantly and without stopping. It never stops biting, making it dangerous to approach without taking precautions. It will also ram anything, ensuring that it always has bruises all over it. As seen in ''[[BW056|The Lonely Deino]]'', it may rear up on its hind legs when happy. Deino primarily lives in caves with abundant water sources.

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
[[File:Bobby Deino.png|thumb|250px|left|Deino in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
Three Deino debuted in ''[[BW056|The Lonely Deino!]]'', under the care of a {{pkmn|Day Care}} owner named [[Bobby]], who was looking after them for their {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. Two of the Deino were very rambunctious, while the third was shy and refused to eat. {{an|Iris}} tried to use her experience with {{type|Dragon}}s to help it feel more comfortable around strangers. This Deino reappeared in a flashback in ''[[BW064|Explorers of the Hero's Ruin!]]''.

====Minor appearances====
A Trainer's Deino made a cameo appearance in ''[[BW069|Climbing the Tower of Success!]]''.

A Trainer's Deino appeared in ''[[BW103|Curtain Up, Unova League!]]''.

A Trainer's Deino appeared in a flashback in ''[[BW140|Survival of the Striaton Gym!]]''.

===In the Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 Animated Trailer===
A Deino appeared in the [[Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2 Animated Trailer]], under the ownership of a resident of [[Aspertia City]].

==In the manga==
[[File:Leo Deino.png|thumb|250px|Deino in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
A boy named [[Leo]] used a Deino to battle {{adv|Cheren}}'s {{p|Unfezant}} in the quarterfinals of the [[Unova]] [[Pokémon League]] and lost. It first appeared in ''[[PS512|Hallway Hijinks]]''.

A {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}} used a Deino in a flashback in ''[[PS531|Unforgettable Memories]]''. It fought against Hugh's Purrloin and Trapinch after Hugh refused to listen to them when they convinced him that he was causing pain to his Pokémon. Deino was able to weaken Purrloin, forcing Hugh's sister recall it to its Poké Ball, which was then taken by two Grunts afterwards.

==Trivia==
* Deino has the lowest base {{stat|Speed}} stat of all {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon.
* Of all the Pokémon that evolve by level alone, Deino evolves to its {{p|Hydreigon|final form}} later than any other Pokémon, evolving at level 64.
** Deino also evolves into its {{p|Zweilous|second form}} at level 50, later than any other Pokémon that evolves by leveling up and can evolve again.
* Deino is the only Pokémon whose English name's letters are in alphabetical order.

===Origin===
Deino is based on a {{wp|dragon}}, specifically an infant form of the {{wp|Yamata no Orochi}}, or possibly {{wp|Slavic dragon#East Slavic|Zmey Gorynych}}. Due to its blindness and only being found near water in a [[Victory Road (Black and White)|cave]], Deino may also be based on a {{wp|cave salamander}}.

According to interviews with [[Ken Sugimori]] in ''Nintendo Dream'', Deino and its evolutionary family were originally intended to be cyborg dragons with aspects of {{wp|tank}}s. The Pokémon were scrapped until late in development, when they were revived and remade to be based on Yamata no Orochi.

====Name origin====
Deino may be a combination of ''dino'' (short for ''dinosaur'') and ''ein'' (German for ''a'', and part of the German for ''one'', ''eins''). It may also derive from δεινός ''deinos'' (Ancient Greek for ''terrible''). It may also refer to dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals such as ''{{wp|Deinosuchus}}'' and ''{{wp|Deinonychus}}''. Deino is also the name of one of the {{wp|Graeae}}, the three sisters in Greek mythology who shared one interchangeable eye, leaving two blind while one could see.

Monozu may be a combination of ''mono'' (prefix meaning ''one'') and 頭 ''zu'' (head). Its full name literally means "one head".

'''Deino''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''モノズ''' ''Monozu'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dark|Dragon}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Zweilous}} starting at [[level]] 50, which evolves into {{p|Hydreigon}} starting at level 64.

Deino is a small blue quadrupedal Pokémon with black fur covering its head and neck, concealing everything but its mouth from view. The fur around its neck also has six purple spots encircling it, which resemble bruises. The hair on the top of its head takes the shape of a single small horn. It also has a short tail that appears to be bitten off. As it is blind, it will bite at and eat anything that moves, and it has the vigor and energy to bite constantly and without stopping. It never stops biting, making it dangerous to approach without taking precautions. It will also ram anything, ensuring that it always has bruises all over it. As seen in ''[[BW056|The Lonely Deino]]'', it may rear up on its hind legs when happy. Deino primarily lives in caves with abundant water sources.

==Trivia==
* Deino has the lowest base {{stat|Speed}} stat of all {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon.
* Of all the Pokémon that evolve by level alone, Deino evolves to its {{p|Hydreigon|final form}} later than any other Pokémon, evolving at level 64.
** Deino also evolves into its {{p|Zweilous|second form}} at level 50, later than any other Pokémon that evolves by leveling up and can evolve again.
* Deino is the only Pokémon whose English name's letters are in alphabetical order.

===Origin===
Deino is based on a {{wp|dragon}}, specifically an infant form of the {{wp|Yamata no Orochi}}, or possibly {{wp|Zmei Gorynich}}. Due to its blindness and only being found near water in a [[Victory Road (Black and White)|cave]], Deino may also be based on a {{wp|cave salamander}}.

According to interviews with [[Ken Sugimori]] in ''Nintendo Dream'', Deino and its evolutionary family were originally intended to be cyborg dragons with aspects of {{wp|tank}}s. The Pokémon were scrapped until late in development, when they were revived and remade to be based on Yamata no Orochi.

====Name origin====
Deino may be a combination of ''dino'' (short for ''dinosaur'') and ''ein'' (German for ''a'', and part of the German for ''one'', ''eins''). It may also derive from δεινός ''deinos'' (Ancient Greek for ''terrible''). It may also refer to dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals such as ''{{wp|Deinosuchus}}'' and ''{{wp|Deinonychus}}''. Deino is also the name of one of the {{wp|Graeae}}, the three sisters in Greek mythology who shared one interchangeable eye, leaving two blind while one could see.

Monozu may be a combination of ''mono'' (prefix meaning ''one'') and 頭 ''zu'' (head). Its full name literally means "one head".

'''Deino''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''モノズ''' ''Monozu'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dark|Dragon}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Zweilous}} starting at [[level]] 50, which evolves into {{p|Hydreigon}} starting at level 64.

==Biology==
Deino is a small blue quadrupedal Pokémon with black fur covering its head and neck, concealing everything but its mouth from view. The fur around its neck also has six purple spots encircling it, which resemble bruises. The hair on the top of its head takes the shape of a single small horn. It also has a short tail that appears to be bitten off. As it is blind, it will bite at and eat anything that moves, and it has the vigor and energy to bite constantly and without stopping. It never stops biting, making it dangerous to approach without taking precautions. It will also ram anything, ensuring that it always has bruises all over it. As seen in ''[[BW056|The Lonely Deino]]'', it may rear up on its hind legs when happy. Deino primarily lives in caves with abundant water sources.

==Trivia==
* Deino has the lowest base {{stat|Speed}} stat of all {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon.
* Of all the Pokémon that evolve by level alone, Deino evolves to its {{p|Hydreigon|final form}} later than any other Pokémon, evolving at level 64.
** Deino also evolves into its {{p|Zweilous|second form}} at level 50, later than any other Pokémon that evolves by leveling up and can evolve again.
* Deino is the only Pokémon whose English name's letters are in alphabetical order.

===Origin===
Deino is based on a {{wp|dragon}}, specifically an infant form of the {{wp|Yamata no Orochi}}, or possibly {{wp|Zmey Gorynich}}. Due to its blindness and only being found near water in a [[Victory Road (Black and White)|cave]], Deino may also be based on a {{wp|cave salamander}}.

According to interviews with [[Ken Sugimori]] in ''Nintendo Dream'', Deino and its evolutionary family were originally intended to be cyborg dragons with aspects of {{wp|tank}}s. The Pokémon were scrapped until late in development, when they were revived and remade to be based on Yamata no Orochi.

====Name origin====
Deino may be a combination of ''dino'' (short for ''dinosaur'') and ''ein'' (German for ''a'', and part of the German for ''one'', ''eins''). It may also derive from δεινός ''deinos'' (Ancient Greek for ''terrible''). It may also refer to dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals such as ''{{wp|Deinosuchus}}'' and ''{{wp|Deinonychus}}''. Deino is also the name of one of the {{wp|Graeae}}, the three sisters in Greek mythology who shared one interchangeable eye, leaving two blind while one could see.

Monozu may be a combination of ''mono'' (prefix meaning ''one'') and 頭 ''zu'' (head). Its full name literally means "one head".

'''Druddigon''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''クリムガン''' ''Crimgan'') is a {{type|Dragon}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

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

==Biology==
Druddigon is a large, blue, draconic Pokémon with medium-sized wings shaped like thistle leaves. Its bright red head is harder than rock and is very rough. It has a set of glaring, ferocious pale yellow irises. Its arms are longer than its legs, giving it the appearance of a hunchback. It has a thick, moderately-sized tail and sharp claws on both the hands and feet. It also has tall, conical, red spikes; three on each arm, one on each shoulder, two on each leg, and four on its tail. It has a blunt, brutal snout, bearing a maw with no discernible teeth; instead, small fang-like protrusions sprout from its jaws. It has a series of olive, ellipsoid scutes running across its belly.

Druddigon warms its body by taking in sunlight with its wings; if its body temperature lowers, it becomes immobile. It has savage physical strength; it nimbly chases prey around its den, using its outstretched claws to catch them, or charging into them face-first. It infiltrates the tunnels of other Pokémon, such as {{p|Diglett}} and {{p|Dugtrio}}, and waits for its prey to pass by. Druddigon lives in caves, and is carnivorous.

==Trivia==
* Druddigon shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Gabite}}. They are both known as the Cave Pokémon.

===Origin===
Druddigon appears to be based on the {{wp|Agama agama|red-headed rock agama}}. Its natural appearance and cave-dwelling behavior also seem to resemble a {{wp|European dragon}}. Druddigon's grotesque appearance and ability to become immobile when cold is reminiscent of {{wp|gargoyle}}s and {{wp|troll}}s, both of which turn to stone under certain conditions.

====Name origin====
Druddigon may be a combination of ''dragon'' and ''ruddy'' (reddish in color). The name also appears to show Welsh influences. These include the ''dd'', a common digraph in the Welsh language, and the ending ''-igon'' being comparable to Welsh ''-igion''. Wales has also had a long association with dragons, with one being featured on its flag. "Drudd" may also originate from a corruption of "dread", due to Druddigon's fearsome appearance and strength.

Crimgan may be a combination of ''crimson'' and 顔 ''gan'' (face) or 岩 ''gan'' (rock).

'''Dragalge''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ドラミドロ''' ''Dramidoro'') is a dual-type {{2t|Poison|Dragon}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VI]].

It [[evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Skrelp}} starting at [[level]] 48.

==Biology==
Dragalge is a brown aquatic Pokémon that resembles a leafy sea dragon. Its main body is curved in way that resembles the number three. Its sides are a dull shade of purple with slender vertical lines. Its pectoral fins and tail fin resemble dried up kelp. It has a straightened brown snout. Dragalge has a red leaf-like crest and brown-green antenna on top of its head.

Dragalge can spit poison strong enough to melt metal, hulls of tankers being a specific example. This territorial Pokémon will spit this poison at whatever trespasses its territory. As a result, it is said that ships sailing through the seas where it lives never return. Like its pre-evolution {{p|Skrelp}}, it blends in seaweed to ambush its prey. Dragalge and Skrelp coexist well with {{p|Dhelmise}}.

==In the anime==
[[File:Dragalge anime.png|thumb|250px|left|Dragalge in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
Two wild Dragalge appeared in ''[[XY024|An Undersea Place to Call Home!]]''. They were among the Pokémon who made their home in the wreckage of the [[S.S. Cussler]], and were responsible for welding the pieces of the ship together to make a home.

===Minor appearances===
Multiple Dragalge appeared in ''[[M17|Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction]]''.

==Trivia==
* Dragalge and its {{p|Skrelp|pre-evolution}} are the only {{type|Poison}} Pokémon introduced in [[Generation VI]].

===Origin===
Dragalge appears to be based on a {{wp|leafy seadragon}}, but bears resemblance in shape and body appendages to the {{wp|Phyllopteryx|weedy seadragon}}. Both of these animals are capable of mimicking the appearance of aquatic foliage as a way of {{wp|camouflage}}, like Dragalge. The Pokédex entries for Dragalge and {{p|Skrelp|its pre-evolution}} make several allusions to a diet, habitat, and resemblance based around rotten {{wp|kelp}}, a kind of {{wp|seaweed}}. Notably, rotting seaweed releases highly toxic gas, and can cause poisonings. Dragalge's concept as a seaweed-based monster is reminiscent of the works of {{wp|William Henry Hodgson}}, particularly his {{wp|Sargasso Sea Stories}}.

====Name origin====
Dragalge is a combination of ''dragon'' and ''{{wp|algae}}''.

Dramidoro may be a combination of ''dragon'' and 水綿 ''aomidoro'' (''{{wp|Spirogyra}})''.

'''Skrelp''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''クズモー''' ''Kuzumo'') is a dual-type {{2t|Poison|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VI]].

It [[evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Dragalge}} starting at [[level]] 48.

==Biology==
Skrelp is a brown aquatic Pokémon that resembles a marine animal similar to a seahorse called a sea dragon. The tip of Skrelp's tail has three leaf-like fins. Skrelp has a pair of roundish, clear pectoral fins on the sides of its body, a dull purple belly and a blunt spike on its hunched back. Skrelp's face is the same colour as its belly, with an upward-pointing snout and red circular eyes with small black pupils. A clear, roundish growth with a brown stem sticks out on the back of Skrelp's head.

It camouflages as rotten kelp in order to avoid predatory attacks and prey on unawares. Its main source of food is rotten seaweed. Skrelp, along with its evolution {{p|Dragalge}}, coexist well with {{p|Dhelmise}}.

==In the anime==
[[File:Skrelp anime.png|thumb|left|250px|Skrelp in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
Multiple Skrelp debuted in ''[[XY024|An Undersea Place to Call Home!]]''. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} were fishing when Ash accidentally hooked a Skrelp, which ended up leaving {{AP|Pikachu}} {{status|badly poisoned}}. Many other Skrelp were among the Pokémon who made their home in the wreckage of the [[S.S. Cussler]].

===Minor appearances===
A Skrelp appeared in ''[[M17|Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction]]''.

Skrelp may be a combination of ''scrawny'' and ''kelp''.

Kuzumo may be a corruption of クサモドキ ''kusamodoki'' (pseudo-grass) or 藻屑 ''mokuzu'' (seaweed scraps).

'''Dhelmise''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ダダリン''' ''Dadarin'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ghost|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VII]].

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

==Biology==
Dhelmise is a Pokémon made up of an anchor and ship's wheel, held together by a mass of green seaweed. The anchor is a rusty brown color and mottled with blackish spots. The seaweed, which is Dhelmise's true body, partially envelops the thick, curved bottom of the anchor in a zigzag fashion, leaving empty spaces that look like sharp teeth. The seaweed continues upward to cover the anchor's entire thin shank, as well as what appears to be a round, nose-like hub on the top. The ship's wheel, colored lavender with yellow details, is affixed to the back of this hub by its center and able to rotate freely. The noticeably damaged wheel features six spokes and four yellow handles, as well as two lavender stubs where the other handles should be. A simple compass, resembling an eye, is set into a ring-shaped component on one side of the wheel; mirroring this is an identical ring on the opposite side, though nothing is set into it. Dhelmise preys on {{p|Wailmer}} and {{p|Wailord}} and coexists well with {{p|Skrelp}} and {{p|Dragalge}}.

Dhelmise is the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Anchor Shot}}.

===Major appearances===
Dhelmise debuted in ''[[SM040|Balloons, Brionne, and Belligerence!]]'', where it was protecting a [[Mystic Water]] that [[Kanoa]] was trying to get for [[Ida]]. It was eventually defeated by [[Lana's Popplio]], who used {{m|Hydro Vortex}}.

==Trivia==
* Dhelmise is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 517.
* In Generations {{gen|III}} and {{gen|VI}}, an NPC in [[Slateport Market]] mentions that the seaweed in the area is so fresh and lively that it looks as if it could rear up and attack, a description which perfectly describes Dhelmise.

===Origin===
Dhelmise appears to be a cluster of {{wp|seaweed}} holding together the {{wp|anchor}} and {{wp|ship's wheel}} of a wrecked {{wp|ship}}. It may also reference the idea of {{wp|ghost ships}}. The type of seaweed it is based on is possibly the ''{{wp|Codium fragile}}'', also known as "dead man's fingers". Dhelmise's concept as a seaweed-based monster is reminiscent of the works of {{wp|William Henry Hodgson}}, particularly his {{wp|Sargasso Sea Stories}}.

====Name origin====
Dhelmise may be a combination of ''demise'' and ''{{wp|Ship's wheel|helm}}''.

Dadarin may be a combination of 祟り ''tatari'' (cursed) and 舵輸 ''darin'' ({{wp|rudder}} wheel).

==Trivia==
* Dhelmise is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 517.
* In Generations {{gen|III}} and {{gen|VI}}, an NPC in [[Slateport Market]] mentions that the seaweed in the area is so fresh and lively that it looks as if it could rear up and attack, a description which perfectly describes Dhelmise.

===Origin===
Dhelmise appears to be a cluster of {{wp|seaweed}} holding together the {{wp|anchor}} and {{wp|ship's wheel}} of a wrecked {{wp|ship}}. It may also reference the idea of {{wp|ghost ships}}. The type of seaweed it is based on is possibly the ''{{wp|Codium fragile}}'', also known as "dead man's fingers". While not resembling any particular story of his, the concept of a seaweed-based monster is reminiscent of the works of {{wp|William Henry Hodgson}}'s {{wp|Sargasso Sea Stories}}.

====Name origin====
Dhelmise may be a combination of ''demise'' and ''{{wp|Ship's wheel|helm}}''.

Dadarin may be a combination of 祟り ''tatari'' (cursed) and 舵輸 ''darin'' ({{wp|rudder}} wheel).

'''Gardevoir''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サーナイト''' ''Sirnight'') is a dual-type {{2t|Psychic|Fairy}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]]. Prior to [[Generation VI]], it was a pure {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Kirlia}} starting at [[level]] 30. It is one of {{p|Ralts}}'s final forms, the other being {{p|Gallade}}. It can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Gardevoir''' using the [[Gardevoirite]].

==Biology==
Gardevoir is a bipedal, humanoid Pokémon whose body resembles a flowing gown. Most of its body is white, but its hair, arms, and the underside of its gown are green. Its hair curls over its face and down the sides of its head. Behind its red eyes are short spikes, resembling a masquerade mask. It has long arms with three fingers on each hand and slender white legs. A red, fin-like horn extends from its chest, and a shorter, more rounded horn extends from the back. A band of green on its chest extends to the center of the front horn and connects to its sleeve-like arms.

As Mega Gardevoir, it turns almost completely white; only its hair remains green. Its gown becomes longer and wider, resembling a bridal gown. The forearms are slightly thicker with a pointed extension above the elbow. Its facial spikes are larger and now curl upwards. In contrast, its hair is now shorter and more tightly curled. There are now two horns in the center of its chest, extending to either side. These horns are said to be a physical manifestation of this Pokémon's heart, and it is able to use tremendous psychic power now that it is open.<ref>http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/#Gardevoir</ref>

Gardevoir is able to see the future using its psychic powers. Additionally, it is able to create small black holes, distort dimensions, and support itself without feeling the pull of gravity. Its power reaches its peak when protecting its {{pkmn|Trainer}}, whom it will protect with its life. This Pokémon inhabits {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|urban areas}}.

'''PAL''': ''This Psychic- and Fairy-type may look like a woman in a long dress, but there are both male and female Gardevoir out there! If you get one in battle, it'll use Reflect, creating a barrier that stops projectiles from hitting you and your allies. It won't block any of your shots, though, so feel free to fire all the projectiles you like! ''

==Trivia==
* Gardevoir's number in the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] ({{v2|Platinum}} only) and the [[List of Pokémon by Almia Browser number|Almia Browser]] are the same: 159.
* Gardevoir's {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Special Attack}} are the reverse of {{p|Gallade}}'s.
* Mega Gardevoir has the highest base Special Attack of all {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon and the highest {{stat|Special Defense}} stat of all non-Legendary {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon.
* Gardevoir and Gallade are the only Pokémon capable of [[Mega Evolution]] that are in the same evolutionary family.

===Origin===
Gardevoir resembles a {{wp|principal dancer}}. Its exaggerated head with minimal facial expression and an overall frail, featureless physique could also be attributed to ''anesama ningyou'', a style of traditional Japanese {{wp|paper doll}}. Its loyalty and protective nature over its Trainer may suggest that it is based on a {{wp|guardian angel}} or {{wp|familiar spirit}}, though its ghost-like characteristics could also suggest that it is based on {{wp|ghosts}} that refuse to leave the physical world.

====Name origin====
Gardevoir may be a combination of ''garde'' (French for ''guard'') and ''devoir'' (French for ''duty''). It may also be a combination of ''garder'' (French verb for ''to keep'') and ''voir'' (French verb for ''to see''), reflected in its Pokédex data, which explains how Gardevoir will protect its Trainer even at the cost of its own life and that Gardevoir has the ability to see into the future.

Sirnight may be taken to mean さあ、ナイト ''saa, naito'' ("come, knight") or ''Sir Knight''.

'''Swalot''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''マルノーム''' ''Marunoom'') is a {{type|Poison}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Gulpin}} starting at [[level]] 26.

==Biology==
Swalot is a tall, purple, amorphous Pokémon. It has red, beady eyes and yellow whiskers. A female Swalot has shorter whiskers than a male. It has puckered lips and can fit an automobile tire in its mouth. Its hands have three fingers. It has a single row of black rhombi running across its midsection, and can expand and contract its body at will. It is capable of swallowing anything whole, and can digest anything except its own stomach lining. It covers prey and opponents with powerful poison. It lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grassy areas.}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Reggie Swalot.png|left|thumb|220px|Swalot in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
Swalot debuted in ''[[AG122|Deceit and Assist]]'', under the ownership of {{OBP|Anthony|AG122}}. It was used to compete in the [[Grand Festival]], during which it battled {{an|May}} and lost.

A Swalot appeared in ''[[AG127|From Brags to Riches]]'', under the ownership of [[Dominick]]. He used his Swalot and {{p|Tropius}} in a battle against {{Ash}}, where they battled against {{AP|Corphish}} and {{AP|Torkoal}}. However, Corphish ultimately managed to defeat Swalot. It reappeared in a flashback in [[AG128|the next episode]].

[[Paul]]'s brother, [[Reggie]], owns a Swalot, which appeared in ''[[DP066|Lost Leader Strategy!]]''. Reggie used Swalot in his battle against Ash, where it battled against {{AP|Staravia}} and was able to defeat it.

===Minor appearances===
A Swalot that was painted to look like a {{p|Grimer}} was shown at the [[Pokémon Dress-Up Contest]] in ''[[DP033|All Dressed Up With Somewhere To Go!]]''.

A {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s Swalot appeared in ''[[XY039|Summer of Discovery!]]''.

==In the manga==
[[File:Swalot Adventures.png|thumb|200px|Swalot in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Unlike its {{p|Gulpin|pre-evolution}}, Swalot has only made one key appearance in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] {{pkmn|manga}}, being one of the Factory Pokémon, alongside {{p|Electrode}}, fighting [[Pike Queen Lucy]] and [[Palace Maven Spenser]] in ''[[PS304|Swanky Showdown with Swalot]]''. Although it seemingly won using a {{m|Hyper Beam}} after putting the former's {{TP|Lucy|Seviper}} to sleep, the serpent awoke using its {{a|Shed Skin}} ability and counterattacked with a {{m|Dig}} maneuver, defeating it.

The {{OBP|Battle Tower|Generation III}} rented a Swalot, which was stolen by [[Guile Hideout]] in ''[[PS334|The Final Battle VII]]''.

A member of the [[International Police]] was shown to have a Swalot in ''[[PS528|Innocent Scientist]]'' alongside an Electrode.

{{tc|Team Flare Grunt}}s own multiple Swalot, which first appeared in ''[[PAXY26|Rhyhorn Charges]]''.

The illustrator of Pokémon Adventures from [[Pokémon Adventures volume 10|Volume 10]] onwards, [[Satoshi Yamamoto]], is represented by a Swalot.

==Trivia==
*Swalot is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 467.
===Origin===
Swalot's appearance may be based on a single, giant poison gland. Swalot might be based upon a generic organism that uses {{wp|pseudopodia}}. It also resembles the {{wp|blobfish}}, a similarity strengthened by its unevolved form Gulpin's name sounding like "{{wp|sculpin}}," the group of fish that the blobfish belongs to.

====Name origin====
Swalot may be a combination of ''swallow'' and ''a lot''.

Marunoom may be a combination of 丸呑み ''marunomi'' (swallowing whole) and ''nomu'' (swallow or gulp).

'''Gulpin''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ゴクリン''' ''Gokulin'') is a {{type|Poison}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Swalot}} starting at [[level]] 26.

==Biology==
Gulpin is a round, green, amorphous Pokémon. It has a black diamond marking on its back and a yellow feather-like adornment on its head. A female has a shorter feather than a male. Its face consists of puckered lips and slanted eyes that are usually closed. It has two stubby appendages that are the same shape as its lips. It swallows anything of its own size whole, since its stomach comprises most of its body. Its heart and brain are very small in comparison to its stomach. The unique stomach acid it has allows it to digest almost anything. When it is digesting, vile, overpowering gases are expelled. It lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grassy areas.}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Nebel Plateau Gulpin.png|left|220px|thumb|Gulpin in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
Multiple Gulpin debuted in ''[[AG065|Gulpin it Down]]'', where they were eating all of the food in the harbor city {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} were in. Because of this, [[Professor Jacuzzi]] made several efforts to stop them, but one such effort wound up enlarging one of the Gulpin, as well as [[Ash's Treecko]]. Both were eventually restored.

Multiple Gulpin appeared in ''[[XY069|Defending the Homeland!]]'' and ''[[XY070|Beyond the Rainbow!]]'' as Pokémon that lived in the wetlands that [[Ash's Goodra]] was from. They reappeared in ''[[XY112|Master Class is in Session!]]'' and ''[[XY113|Performing a Pathway to the Future!]]'' to watch {{an|Serena}}'s performance along with the rest of the wetland Pokémon. They appeared once again in ''[[XY123|A Diamond in the Rough!]]'', when Ash and his friends returned to the wetlands.

A Gulpin appeared as one of the Pokémon living at the [[Nebel Plateau]] in ''[[M19|Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel]]''. It was particularly close to the {{OBP|Volcanion|M19}} guarding Nebel Plateau. Sometime ago, it had been abandoned by a {{pkmn|Trainer}} whose last act before departure was to hug it. As a result, Gulpin came to associate hugging with abandonment, which nearly strained its newly-formed relationship with Ash when he also hugged it. Later, it helped [[Clemont]] to break the bonds holding Ash and Volcanion together by using {{m|Gastro Acid}}.

===Minor appearances===
A Gulpin appeared in ''[[AG086|Lights, Camerupt, Action!]]'' as an actor in one of [[Elijah]]'s movies.

A {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s Gulpin appeared in a flashback in ''[[AG166|Curbing the Crimson Tide!]]'', where it was revealed to be one of the Pokémon defeated by a disguised {{p|Scizor}} known as "Red Lightning".

Gulpin has made cameo appearances in ''[[XY005|A Blustery Santalune Gym Battle!]]'', ''[[XY009|Clemont's Got a Secret!]]'', ''[[XY016|A Jolting Switcheroo!]]'', ''[[XY021|A PokéVision of Things to Come!]]'', ''[[XY026|A Battle by Any Other Name!]]'', ''[[XY028|The Bonds of Evolution!]]'', and ''[[XY029|Heroes - Friends and Faux Alike!]]''.

A Trainer's Gulpin appeared in ''[[XY047|Dreaming a Performer's Dream!]]''.

Multiple Gulpin appeared in a flashback in ''[[XY055|A Slippery Encounter!]]'' and ''[[XY061|An Oasis of Hope!]]''.

Two Gulpin appeared in a flashback in ''[[XY056|One for the Goomy!]]''.

Four Gulpin appeared in a flashback in ''[[XY065|Good Friends, Great Training!]]''.

A Trainer's Gulpin appeared in ''[[XY091|A Performance Pop Quiz!]]''.

A Trainer's Gulpin appeared in ''[[SM086|I Choose Paradise!]]'', where it was among the Pokémon seen at the [[Pokémon Paradise Resort]].

A Trainer's Gulpin appeared in ''[[SM090|Securing the Future!]]'', where it joined the rest of Alola in showering {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Necrozma}} with light so it could return to its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|normal form}}.

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Hoenn}}
{{Animedexbody|AG065|Gulpin|Ash's Pokédex|Gulpin, the Stomach Pokémon. Gulpin is able to {{m|swallow}} items of its own size whole, as its stomach compresses most of its body. Its unique {{m|Gastro Acid|stomach acid}} allows it to digest almost anything.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|''Advanced Generation''|Hoenn}}

==In the manga==
[[File:Gulpin Adventures.png|thumb|200px|Gulpin in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Gulpin made a cameo appearance at the end of ''[[PS180|The Last Battle XIV]]'', where one was being examined by [[Professor Elm]].

The {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Factory}} rented a Gulpin, as seen in ''[[PS326|Lemme at 'Em, Lapras!]]''. It was stolen by [[Guile Hideout]] in [[PS327|the next chapter]].

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

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
[[File:SSBB Gulpin.png|220px|thumb|Gulpin in Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]
After being released from its [[Poké Ball]], Gulpin will wait until an opponent passes by, then will use {{m|Swallow}} to trap and constantly damage them. The opponent may also be beat on while in Gulpin's mouth for extra damage.

====Trophy information====
''"A Stomach Pokémon. While it's a carefree Pokémon with a lovable face, it can swallow something the size of itself in one gulp. Its stomach is filled with gastric juices strong enough to dissolve anything it eats. As it matures, it learns {{m|Wring Out}}, a move which is as strong as the remaining strength of the Pokémon. It evolves into Swalot."''

==Trivia==
* Gulpin is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 302.
* Gulpin can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Baltoy}}. Both of them are {{cat|Generation III Pokémon}}. Gulpin is exclusive to {{game3|HeartGold and SoulSilver|Pokémon SoulSilver|s}}, while Baltoy is exclusive to {{game3|HeartGold and SoulSilver|Pokémon HeartGold|s}}, with both Pokémon found in a [[Pokémon outbreak]] in the same locations in their respective versions. Additionally, both can be snagged as Shadow Pokémon in {{Pokémon XD}} at the [[Cipher Lab]], with both Pokémon having the same [[Shadow move]], {{m|Shadow Blitz}}.

===Origin===
Gulpin's appearance may be based on a single, giant poison gland or even a {{wp|gallbladder}}, the green sac-like organ that stores gastric acid. It also shares similarities with some snake species known to swallow their prey whole. Given its name and appearance, Gulpin may also be based on the {{wp|blobfish}}, which is a type of {{wp|sculpin}} fish.

====Name origin====
Gulpin is a shortening of ''gulping'' (swallowing). It may also be a combination of "gulp" and "sculpin", as its appearance vaguely resembles the related [[wp:blobfish|blobfish]].

Gokulin may be a combination of ゴクリ ''gokuri'' (the sound of gulping) and ''toxin''.

'''Metagross''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''メタグロス''' ''Metagross'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Psychic}} [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Metang}} starting at [[level]] 45. It is the final form of {{p|Beldum}}. It can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Metagross''' using the [[Metagrossite]].

==Biology==
Metagross is a massive, robotic Pokémon with a turquoise, disc-shaped body and four legs. The main body appears to serve as both head and body, and this Pokémon's overall construction gives it the appearance of a mechanized arachnid. It uses its heavy body to pin down its prey before consuming them with its large mouth. A large, metallic cross is situated in the center of its face. On either side of the cross, a red eye peers out from a space in Metagross's metallic armor. Its four legs are joined to the main body by ball-and-socket joints. While the upper portion of the legs is relatively thin, they are considerably thicker below the knee. Each leg has three short claws on the end and a flat, blunt protrusion extending over the knee. The legs can be tucked in, allowing Metagross to float in the air.

As Mega Metagross, it constantly floats, and its legs become arms. It also gains four legs on the back of its head. The cross on its face turns pale gold, and it gains two small holes and a spike immediately below the cross, giving the impression of a goatee. Its multiple brains process information simultaneously, enabling it to calmly assess the tide of a battle and defeat its opponent with accuracy. Mega Metagross also uses the psychic power inside its body to launch powerful attacks. Its claws are hard as steel and can easily smash even large chunks of rocks.

Metagross is the result of two {{p|Metang}} fusing together. This gives Metagross four brains in total, all connected by a complex network of neurons. Because of these complex connections and the number of brains, this Pokémon is capable of performing complex calculations and is more intelligent than a supercomputer. It uses its intelligence to analyze its opponents during battle. This Pokémon can be found on {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|rough terrains}}. Mega Metagross achieves its form by linking up a Metagross, a Metang, and two {{p|Beldum}} together. During [[Mega Evolution]], Metagross becomes a ruthless Pokémon that will use any means to win in battle, being downright cruel at some points. If it knows it cannot win, Mega Metagross digs its claws into opponent and prepares to explode.

====Major appearances====
=====[[Steven's Metagross]]=====
A {{Shiny}} Metagross that can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into Mega Metagross first appeared in ''[[SS031|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', under the ownership of {{Steven}}.

=====Other=====
Metagross debuted in ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', under the ownership of {{OBP|Rebecca|M07}}. It was her main battling Pokémon.

Metagross made its main series debut in ''[[AG125|Like a Meowth to a Flame]]'', under the ownership of {{ho|Tyson}}. It reappeared in ''[[AG130|Choose It or Lose It!]]'' and ''[[AG131|At the End of the Fray]]'' during the [[Ever Grande Conference]].

{{FB|Salon Maiden|Anabel}} owns a Metagross, which first appeared in ''[[AG169|Talking a Good Game!]]''. It was used during a {{pkmn|battle}} against {{Ash}} in the {{OBP|Battle Tower|Generation III}}, where it easily defeated {{AP|Pikachu}}. It reappeared in ''[[AG170|Second Time's the Charm!]]'', where it was used during Ash's [[rematch]]. It defeated {{AP|Corphish}} before tying with {{AP|Tauros}}.

A Metagross appeared in ''[[DP051|Glory Blaze!]]'', under the ownership of a {{tc|Psychic}}. It was a participant of the [[Hearthome City Tag Battle Competition]].

A wild {{DL|List of alternately colored Pokémon in the anime|Metagross|Shiny}} Metagross appeared in ''[[DP117|Noodles! Roamin' Off!]]'', where it attacked {{TRT}}.

A wild Metagross appeared in ''[[DP158|Regaining the Home Advantage!]]'', where it battled nonstop with a {{p|Magnezone}}. These two Pokémon normally battled with each other on a regular basis until their "battle arena" (a deep crater) became filled with water. Since their crater was no longer usable, they took their battle to the streets of a nearby town, and continued fighting, causing much collateral damage.

In ''[[XY127|Analysis Versus Passion!]]'', it was revealed that [[Alain]]'s Metang had evolved into a Metagross. It first appeared on a display screen, but together with his {{TP|Alain|Charizard}}, it had apparently knocked out the majority of the opponent's team.

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
[[File:Metagross SSBB.png|220px|thumb|Metagross in Super Smash Bros Brawl]]
Upon its release from its [[Poké Ball]], it will stay in one place and repeatedly use {{m|Earthquake}}. Anyone caught underneath the Pokémon will be buried into the ground and thus unable to move for a few moments, until Metagross uses its attack and all the hit characters are blasted upwards.

Metagross was featured as one of the Pokémon released from a Poké Ball in the demo of [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]] at Jumpfesta; however, it hovered above the stage before attacking, unlike in the actual game.

====Trophy information====
''"An Iron Leg Pokémon. When two Beldum combine, they evolve into Metang. In the same way, Metagross is the result of two Metang combining. It's said to have the intelligence to match a supercomputer. Though it weighs 1,212.5 pounds, it is somehow able to fold up its legs and float."''

===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]===
[[File:Metagross SSB4.png|thumb|240px|Metagross in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS.]]
Metagross reappears as a Poké Ball summon in these games, working the same as in ''Brawl''.

====Trophy information====
'''NA''': ''A hulking Steel/Psychic Pokémon, Metagross weighs in at around 1,212.5 lb. Even Snorlax isn't that heavy! It uses Earthquake by stomping its powerful legs on the ground, sending nearby fighters flying and burying those who come too close. You'll be safe in the air, so use careful timing to stay that way.''

'''PAL''': ''A Steel- and Psychic-type Pokémon known as the Iron Leg Pokémon. At 550kg in weight, it's heavier than your average Snorlax. When its Earthquake hits, you'd better hope you’re far away (or at least in mid-air), because the tremors can launch anybody on the ground. And watch out for its legs! They can stomp you right into the ground!''

===[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]===
Metagross returns once again as a Poké Ball summon, functioning the same as in ''Brawl'' and ''for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U''.

==Trivia==
* Due to the way damage is calculated for {{m|Grass Knot}} and {{m|Low Kick}}, Metagross will take the same amount of damage from these moves with or without its Hidden Ability, {{a|Light Metal}}.
* Mega Metagross has the highest base stat total of all Steel-type Pokémon.
* Metagross's number in the [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number (Generation III)|Hoenn Pokédex]] in Generation III and the [[List of Pokémon by Fiore Browser number|Fiore Browser]] are the same: 192.
* Despite being a genderless species, Metagross is referred to as a male in [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]].

===Origin===
Metagross is similar to a {{wp|robot}}. It also appears to be based on a {{wp|supercomputer}}, given its mechanical structure and sheer intelligence, and a spider or crab. It is also reminiscent of a UFO and a {{wp|Lander (spacecraft)|lander}}.

====Name origin====
Metagross may be a combination of ''metal'' and ''cross'' (referring to its facial feature), ''{{wp|gross (unit)|gross}}'' (referring to its weight of 1212 lbs., as a gross is 12×12), or groß ''gross'' (German for ''large'').

'''Feraligatr''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''オーダイル''' ''Ordile'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Croconaw}} starting at [[level]] 30. It is the final form of {{p|Totodile}}.

==Biology==
Feraligatr is a bulky, bipedal crocodilian Pokémon that is primarily blue with accents of red and yellow. A notable feature of Feraligatr is its large, powerful jaws that are able to bite and lock down on opponents. Three pointed teeth are visible when Feraligatr closes its mouth, two from the lower jaw and one from the upper. Feraligatr intimidates its foes by opening its huge mouth. Feraligatr has three sets of spikes on its body: one on its head, one on its back, and one near the tip of its tail. The one on its back appears particularly prominent, due to its size and the bulk of Feraligatr’s shoulders. It has a bisected, V-shaped yellow pattern between its thighs. Feraligatr also has large scales on its arms, tail, and legs. When hunting or fighting, Feraligatr is agile and fast, due to its powerful hind legs that are used to kick the ground hard and charge. Feraligatr can rarely be found living near {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|water}}.

==Trivia==
* Feraligatr reaches its final evolutionary form earlier than any other starter Pokémon, at level 30. However, {{p|Totodile}} evolves at level 18, the latest of any basic starter Pokémon, tied with {{p|Turtwig}}.
* Feraligatr shares the same base stat values with {{p|Blastoise}}, but differently attributed.
* Feraligatr is the only fully evolved [[Johto]] starter to appear in [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]].

===Origin===
Like {{p|Totodile}} and {{p|Croconaw}}, Feraligatr is a {{wp|crocodilia}}n. It visually resembles an {{wp|alligator}}. Feraligatr's aquatic habitat and back plates also somewhat resemble {{wp|Godzilla}}.

====Name origin====
Feraligatr is a combination of ''feral'' and ''{{wp|alligator}}''. It may also derive from ''ferocious''. The shortening of "gator" into ''gatr'' is most likely a result of the ten-character limit on English Pokémon names in [[Generation II]].

Ordile may be a combination of 王 ''ō'' (king), 皇 ''ō'' (emperor), or 大 ''ō'' (large), and ''{{wp|crocodile}}''.

'''Corphish''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヘイガニ''' ''Heigani'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Crawdaunt}} starting at [[level]] 30.

==Biology==
Corphish is a red-shelled, crustacean Pokémon with a short tail similar to a lobster. Its eyes are saucer-like with small pupils, and it has three spikes on top of its head. It possesses four pairs of limbs in total: two large pincers used for gripping prey, and three pairs of legs used for walking. The upper segments of its legs, underside of its body and lower halves of its pincers are cream-colored.

A hardy creature, Corphish is able to live in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|polluted water}} and eat nearly anything. Though not native to [[Alola]], Corphish set free by Trainers here have easily adapted and thrived in the region. {{p|Feebas}} and Corphish are the only Pokémon known to be able to live in stagnant ditches.

==In the anime==
[[File:Ash Corphish.png|250px|left|thumb|Corphish in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Ash's Corphish]]====
A Corphish appeared in ''[[AG023|Gone Corphishin']]'', where {{Ash}} battled and eventually {{pkmn2|caught}} it. Since then, it has served as the main comic relief of Ash's [[party|team]], and the only Pokémon that Ash caught in [[Hoenn]] that hasn't evolved.

==Trivia==
*Corphish is the only Pokémon to date with a [[catch rate]] of 205.
*Corphish can be found in the Hoenn region, but it says in its Pokédex entries that it came from another region overseas. This would make it the first exotic species in the Pokémon world.
*Corphish's tendency to say "Hey, hey!" in such games as [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]] and [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]] is a reference to its Japanese name, "Heigani".

===Origin===
Based on its {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s|Ruby}} Pokédex entry, Corphish is probably based on the {{wp|red swamp crayfish}}, which, like Corphish, are invasive pests in many areas.

====Name origin====
Corphish may be a combination of ''{{wp|corps}}'' (a branch of military servicemen; pronounced as ''core'') or ''{{wp|corporal}}'' (a member of the military or police force) and ''{{wp|crayfish}}'' (the species it is based on). Alternatively, it could derive from the archaic Newfoundland fishing term ''corfish'', which are a type of dried fish.

Heigani is a combination of 弊 ''hei'' (''a bad habit'' or ''to harm'') or 兵 ''hei'' (army/troops) and ''ebigani'' (crayfish).

'''Crawdaunt''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''シザリガー''' ''Shizariger'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Corphish}} starting at [[level]] 30.

==Biology==
Crawdaunt is a primarily red, crustacean Pokémon with a tan underside. It has circular eyes set in deep sockets and a large, star-shaped growth on its forehead. The upper and lower halves of its underside are separated by a pattern of angular red shapes, and there are two blue stripes on its throat. Its forelimbs have two large pincers with spiked edges and tan lower halves form. There are two sets of hind limbs. The foremost pair are simple claws with two spikes, while the rear pair are large and thick with two white claws. A yellow triangle marks the base of its lobster-like tail.

Crawdaunt is a very violent Pokémon that lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|ponds}}. Because of its constant challenges to battle, no other Pokémon wants to inhabit its territory. Any that do venture too close are tossed out of its pond with its pincers. An experienced Crawdaunt will be covered in scars from countless battles. However, it must molt regularly and its shell is soft immediately after. Once its pincers fall off, Crawdaunt turn timid until they grow back. In order to protect itself, it burrows under stream beds until its new shell hardens. Unlike the meat found in the claws of {{p|Crabrawler}} and {{p|Clauncher}}, Crawdaunt's have foul smell and taste.

==Trivia==
* Crawdaunt is the only Pokémon with a [[catch rate]] of 155.

===Origin===
Crawdaunt's name and appearance suggest that it is based on a {{wp|red swamp crayfish}}, with its Dark typing and aggressive behavior reminiscent of the species' hardiness and status as an invasive species. However, its size and Dark type may also suggest it is based on a larger, more powerful creature, such as the {{wp|lobster}}. Crawdaunt's shell may be based on {{wp|batesian mimicry}} in association with {{p|Sharpedo}}, as it resembles an open shark mouth with a star on the nose.

====Name origin====
Crawdaunt is a combination of ''crawdad'' or ''crawfish'' (alternate names for a ''crayfish'') and ''daunt'' (to cause to lose courage) or ''taunt''.

Shizariger is a combination of シザー ''shizā'' (scissors) and ザリガニ ''zarigani'' (crayfish).

'''Archeops''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''アーケオス''' ''Archeos'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Flying}} [[Fossil]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Archen}} starting at [[level]] 37, after it is revived from a [[Plume Fossil]].

==Biology==
Archeops is a large, flying creature that bears similarities to a dinosaur. Its featherless, scaly head is red with a green stripe running along the top. Its mouth is filled with sharp teeth. Its eyes are white with black pupils and no irises. Its body is covered with frayed-looking, yellow and blue feathers designed for flight on its arms and legs enabling all four of its limbs to act as wings. All of these "wings" bear sharp claws. It has a ring of smaller green feathers on the ankles. Its tail is completely red and featherless except for a fan of blue feathers at the end, and as with the ''{{wp|Archaeopterygiformes}}'', it has fully-movable vertebrae in its tail instead of a {{wp|pygostyle}}. Its plumage is very delicate.

It is capable of flying, but is more adept at running. It can outrun even an automobile. It has the intelligence to work with its partners in order to catch prey. Archeops is extinct, but can be revived via fossils. Archeops is omnivorous, along with hunting for prey, it has been seen eating fruit [[BW036|in the anime]].

==In the anime==
[[File:Archeops anime.png|thumb|250px|left|Archeops in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
Multiple Archeops debuted in ''[[BW036|Archeops In The Modern World!]]'', including one that evolved from a revived female {{p|Archen}}. The female Archeops reappeared in a flashback in ''[[BW064|Explorers of the Hero's Ruin!]]''.

===Minor appearances===
Multiple Archeops appeared in the opening sequence of ''[[M14|Black—Victini and Reshiram]]''.

Multiple Archeops appeared in a flashback in ''[[BW075|A Restoration Confrontation! Part 1]]''. They then physically appeared in [[BW076|the follow-up episode]].

==In the manga==
[[File:N Archeops Adventures.png|thumb|125px|Archeops in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{adv|N}} befriended an Archeops when he was an {{p|Archen}}. He took part in N's battle against [[Alder]] in ''[[PS508|The Lesson Ends Here]]''.

==Trivia==
* Archeops is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 567.
** It is also the only Pokémon whose base stat total matches its [[National Pokédex]] number.
** This number is also part of the {{wp|Dewey Decimal}} number 567.9, the number for feathered dinosaurs.
* No other Pokémon has the same [[Egg Group]] combination as Archeops and its {{p|Archen|pre-evolution}}.
* Archeops and its pre-evolution are the only [[Fossil]] Pokémon without Hidden Abilities.

===Origin===
Archeops appears to draw inspiration from the ''{{wp|Archaeopteryx}}'', believed by scientists to be the earliest of all birds, also referenced by its species as the "First Bird" Pokémon. It may also be based on the {{wp|Feathered Serpent}}s of ancient {{wp|Mesoamerica}}n mythologies, as well as {{wp|European dragons}} in general.

====Name origin====
Archeops and Archeos may be derived from ''Archaeopteryx''; the suffix ''-ops'', which is common in dinosaur names; or the ancient Greek words αρχαιος (''archaīos'') meaning "ancient" and ωψ (''ops'') meaning "face".

'''Skarmory''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''エアームド''' ''Airmd'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Flying}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

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

==Biology==
Skarmory is a silver-gray, avian Pokémon with a long, metallic blue neck, legs, and tail. It has yellow eyes, a pointed beak with several pointed teeth, and a triangular crest on its head. There are red feathers under the sheaths that cover its sharp wings, and each feather can be moved independently. Its wings are actually hollow, allowing it to travel up to 180 mph (300 km/h). Its feet have three toes on them, two in front and one in back, and its tail has hooked ends.

Its steel wings become tattered and bashed in from repeated battles, but once a year the battered wings grow back completely. This process restores the cutting edges. Its feathers are sharp enough to be used as blades. Its skin and feathers are solid because it lives and is raised in very {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|harsh conditions}}. Its nests are usually found in thorn bushes, where continual scratching of its skin will eventually harden it into an iron-like state. However, water can cause Skarmory's hard body to rust easily, so it stays in its nest on rainy days. In ancient [[Alola]], warriors would use the sharp feathers that fell off Skarmory as swords.

==In the anime==

==Trivia==
* Skarmory has the highest base {{stat|Defense}} of all {{type|Flying}} Pokémon.
* Skarmory's number in the [[List of Pokémon by Johto Pokédex number|Johto Pokédex]] and [[List of Pokémon by Unova Pokédex number#List of Pokémon by New Unova Pokédex number|New Unova Pokédex]] are the same: 203.

===Origin===
Skarmory has much in common with the {{wp|Andean Condor}} and {{wp|Crane (bird)|crane}}s, birds which are held in high esteem in Japan. It is also similar to many mythological, metallic birds such as the {{wp|Stymphalian bird}}s, the {{wp|Gagana}}, and the {{wp|Alicanto}}, as well as resembling a {{wp|wyvern}}.

Its concept could also be a pun on 鶴 ''tsuru'' (crane), referencing a paper crane, and 剣 ''tsurugi'' (sword). Its wings also resemble a Japanese paper {{wp|hand fan}}.

====Name origin====
Skarmory is a combination of ''sky'' and ''{{wp|armory}}'' or ''armor''. It may also include ''scar'', given how its sharp body could easily wound its prey and even leave them with scars; ''scar'' may also refer to Skarmory's own skin, being cut repeatedly in brambles when it is young and building up the harder, callused or scar-like tissue which makes up its steely hide as an adult.

Airmd may be based on ''air'' or a pun on ''armed'' or ''armored''.

'''Snorlax''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カビゴン''' ''Kabigon'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Munchlax}} when [[level]]ed up with high [[friendship]].

In the [[Generation I]] and {{gen|II}} games and their remakes, wild Snorlax can be found sleeping in inconvenient locations throughout [[Kanto]]. In order to catch one, a Trainer must first awaken it with music from either a [[Poké Flute]] or [[Pokégear]] set to the Poké Flute channel. A sleeping Snorlax makes a return in [[Pokémon X and Y]], in which it is blocking the player's way on {{rt|7|Kalos}}.

==Biology==
Snorlax is a huge, bipedal, dark blue-green Pokémon with a cream-colored face, belly, and feet. Its body is composed of mostly its belly, where most of its fat reserves accumulate. Its head is large, with small, pointed ears and two pointed teeth protruding from its lower jaw. It has large, hind feet with three claws and a circular brown paw pad, and its arms and five foreclaws are short.

Snorlax is often found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountains and forests}}. It wakes up only to eat, requiring 900 lbs. (400 kg.) of food per day before returning to its slumber. It is not a picky eater, as its strong stomach allows it to eat even moldy food without feeling any ill effects, even being able to handle {{p|Muk}}'s poison. It can even eat while it is resting. Snorlax is docile enough to let children and small Pokémon bounce on its large stomach.

Snorlax can show awesome power when prompted. It is the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of using the exclusive [[Z-Move]] {{m|Pulverizing Pancake}}.

==Other appearances==
[[File:Snorlax SSBB.png|thumb|200px|Snorlax in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]

===[[Super Smash Bros.]]===
When released from a Poké Ball, Snorlax will ascend into the air before descending over a large area of the screen with a {{m|Body Slam}} that sends any opponent underneath flying.

===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
Snorlax does the same maneuver as it did in the previous game, but covers a smaller area.

Snorlax is also a [[Poké Floats|Poké Float]]. It is lying down asleep and so fighting occurs on its head and belly.
====Melee trophy information====
''Snorlax love to sleep and love to eat: these portly Pokémon get grumpy if they don't get 888 pounds of food per day. After snacking out, they always nap. They have cast-iron stomachs and can eat moldy and even rotten food with no digestion problems. They are the heaviest Pokémon on record, weighing in at over 1,000 pounds.''

===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
Snorlax once again performs the same maneuver as the previous games.

====Brawl trophy information====

''"A Sleeping Pokémon. It's the ultimate loafer. Sometimes children like to play on top its big belly. Once in a slumber, not even the hardest rain or the fiercest wind will wake it. Snorlax recovers health and restores its physical state by sleeping, and it proves daunting with its damaging {{m|Snore}} attack. Snorlax is the king of Sleeping Pokémon."''

===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]===
[[File:Snorlax SSB4.png|thumb|240px|Snorlax in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS.]]
Snorlax reappears as a Poké Ball summon in these games, behaving the same way as before.
====Trophy information====
'''NA''': ''This sleepy, Normal-type Pokémon is huge! It eats more than 900 lb. of food every day. Most of the time not spent eating is spent sleeping. That big, round body comes in handy when it's brought onto a Smash Bros. battlefield—the Body Slam attack will send anyone who gets hit flying into the air!''

'''PAL''': ''Snorlax is often referred to as the Sleeping Pokémon, and there's a good reason for that! This giant loafer spends almost all its time snoozing, getting up for just long enough each day to scoff up a tidy 400kg of food. In this game, it soars into the air and uses its Body Slam attack, smacking into fighters like a giant wrecking ball.''

===[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]===
Snorlax reappears as a Poké Ball summon, retaining its behavior from past games. It also appears as a {{sbw|Spirits (characters)|Spirit}}.

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}: Snorlax will be seen sleeping throughout the game, effectively cutting off certain areas until later on. It will eventually remain in a cave in the [[Sekra Range]]. Once the rest of the [[List of Pokémon by Fiore Browser number|Ranger Browser]] has been completed, it will wake up and can be captured.

==Trivia==
* In the [[Pokémon Stadium series]] (and later 3D games), Snorlax open their eyes when they faint.
* In [[Pokémon Snap]], Snorlax stands up and dances to the music when the [[Poké Flute]] is used.
* In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, if the player interacts with a Snorlax that is {{pkmn2|walking}} with them while at [[Mt. Silver]], the message "SNORLAX is feeling very eager" will appear. This is due to {{ga|Red}}, who is also at Mt. Silver, owning a Snorlax as well. While the player is on Mt. Silver, unique messages will also appear if the player interacts with a walking {{p|Pikachu}} or {{p|Charizard}}.
* Snorlax has the highest base stat total of all Pokémon that can hatch from an {{pkmn|Egg}}.
* In {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, Snorlax is programmed to be able to learn {{m|Charm}} through {{pkmn|breeding}}, but no other Pokémon in the {{egg2|Monster}} can legitimately learn it to pass down as an [[Egg Move]] in those games. In [[Generation III]] on, Snorlax can inherit the move from {{p|Bulbasaur}} by chain breeding.
* Snorlax is the [[List of Pokémon by weight|heaviest]] {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Snorlax may be loosely based on {{wp|hibernation|hibernating}} {{wp|bear}}s, {{wp|panda bears}}, or {{wp|teddy bear}}s, as well as {{wp|domestic cat|cats}}, a species often depicted as lazy. It may also be based on the {{wp|cave bear}}. It may also be based on a food coma, as it eats large quantities of food, then takes a nap (symptoms of a food coma). Snorlax also shares traits with {{wp|sloth}}s, who are often portrayed as lazy and sleepy creatures.

====Name origin====
Snorlax is a combination of ''snore'' and ''lax'' or ''relax''.

Kabigon may come from an alternate reading of sleep, 寐 ''bi'', and a corruption of 鼾酔 ''kansui'' (snoring) or 憩う ''ikou'' (rest). It may also incorporate 黴 ''kabi'' (mold), noting the fact that Snorlax will eat anything, even moldy food. Kabigon is also based on the nickname of [[Game Freak]] programmer [[Kōji Nishino]], which is the reason his game appearance uses Snorlax as his highest-leveled Pokémon in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}.

'''Mudkip''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミズゴロウ''' ''Mizugorou'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Marshtomp}} starting at [[level]] 16, which evolves into {{p|Swampert}} starting at [[level]] 36.

Along with {{p|Treecko}} and {{p|Torchic}}, Mudkip is one of three [[starter Pokémon]] of [[Hoenn]] available at the beginning of [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire]], {{v2|Emerald}}, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire]].

==Biology==
Mudkip is a small, amphibious, quadruped Pokémon. It has a blue body with a light-blue underside. It has a large head with a blue fin on top and a light-blue tail fin. It has black, beady eyes and orange, star-shaped gills on its cheeks. By using the fin on its head, Mudkip is able to detect changes in air and water currents as well as bodies of water. Its fin can also point in a certain direction, as seen in [[AG114|the anime]]. Mudkip is capable of moving or crushing boulders larger than itself. Its large tail fin propels it through water with powerful acceleration.

According to its Pokémon Ranger browser entry, Mudkip is a very docile Pokémon. Mudkip lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|swamps and other wetlands}}, where it sleeps by burying itself in soil at the water’s edge.

==Trivia==
{{bulbanews|Gotta Meme 'em All: Mudkip and Marshtomp, here in the track}}
* In a poll conducted by Nintendo of Europe, Mudkip was voted as the fans' favorite starter, with {{p|Typhlosion}} and {{p|Blastoise}} close behind in second.
* Mudkip is the subject of a popular {{wp|Internet meme}} known as "So i herd u liek mudkipz?".

===Origin===
This Pokémon is based on the {{wp|mudpuppy}} or {{wp|mudskipper}}, or also possibly an {{wp|axolotl}}. As Mudkip is the Mud Fish Pokémon, it might also be based on the {{wp|gilled African lungfish}}.

====Name origin====
Mudkip is a combination of ''mud'' and ''skip'', or it may be a shortening of ''{{wp|mudskipper}}''.

Mizugorou may be a combination of 水 ''mizu'' (water) and ムツゴロウ ''mutsugorō'' (mudskipper).

'''Avalugg''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''クレベース''' ''Crebase'') is an {{type|Ice}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VI]].

It [[evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Bergmite}} starting at [[level]] 37.

==Biology==
Avalugg is a massive Pokémon covered almost entirely in reflective ice. Its top half is flat, with three cracks, one before its stubby tail and two in between its four legs. These legs are cylindrical, and also sport purple cracks at its joints and in between its icy toes. Underneath each toe is a spike, similar to cleats. Large icicles hang from its underside, which nearly touch the ground. Avalugg's head is similar to its body, a cracked wedge of ice with a flattened upper surface. Its mouth has a large underbite, which opens up to reveal four small teeth and purple gums. The head has two white diamond-shaped "ears," and from its chin hangs three bulging spikes, resembling a beard.

Bergmite are known to huddle on top of Avalugg's back, causing it to resemble an aircraft carrier made out of ice. Its cumbersome frame is as hard as steel, able to crush anything that stands in its way.

==In the anime==

===Major appearances===
An Avalugg debuted in ''[[XY120|All Hail the Ice Battlefield!]]'', under the ownership of [[Wulfric]]. It was used in his [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} against {{Ash}}. Avalugg battled {{AP|Hawlucha}}, {{AP|Talonflame}}, and {{AP|Greninja}}, being able to defeat all three of them. It was [[XY122|later]] used in a rematch, where Avalugg was able to defeat {{AP|Pikachu}} but then lost to Talonflame.

===Origin===
Avalugg appears to be based on a {{wp|tabular iceberg}} or a {{wp|stalactite}}. It may be a representation of the submerged part of the iceberg, which is immense in comparison with the tip. Avalugg's {{t|Ice}} type and being likened to an {{wp|aircraft carrier}} may be a reference to {{wp|Project Habakkuk}}, a plan conceived by the {{wp|Allies of World War II|Allies}} in {{wp|World War II}} to build an aircraft carrier from {{wp|pykrete}}, a combination of ice and wood pulp. Its body also resembles an {{wp|aetosaur}}, or possibly a {{wp|tortoise}}.

====Name origin====
Avalugg may be a combination of ''avalanche'' and ''lug'' (to carry or drag heavy objects, or a big/clumsy person).

Crebase may be a combination of ''{{wp|crevasse}}'' and ''base''.

'''Nidoran♀''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ニドラン♀''' ''Nidoran♀'') is a {{type|Poison}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Nidorina}} starting at [[level]] 16, which evolves into {{p|Nidoqueen}} when exposed to a [[Moon Stone]].

It is related to the {{p|Nidoran♂}} line, and can produce {{pkmn|Egg}}s that contain either Nidoran♀ or Nidoran♂. However, it is the only one of its line that can breed, as Nidorina and Nidoqueen are part of the {{egg3|Undiscovered}}.

==Biology==
Nidoran♀ is a small, quadruped, rodent-like Pokémon. It has large, spiny ears, oversized front teeth, red eyes, and a pair of whiskers on each cheek. It is light blue with several darker blue spots. There are two white claws on each of its paws. Its back is covered with small toxic spines, and it has a small forehead horn. The poison secreted by the spines and horn is extremely potent, and even a scratch from its horn or a drop of poison from its barbs can be deadly. However, this docile Pokémon only uses its poison when it feels threatened. Nidoran♀ lives in open spaces, such as {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|savannas and plains}}. Nidoran♀ is an exclusively female Pokémon, {{p|Nidoran♂}} being its male counterpart.

==Trivia==
* Nidoran♀ and Nidoran♂ were the first Pokémon to feature [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|gender differences]], or even gender at all.
* Despite the addition of genders to most Pokémon starting in [[Generation II]], the two variations of Nidoran remained separate species, rather than a singular species that splits down different evolution paths based on gender.
** An {{pkmn|Egg}} laid by a Nidoran♀ does, however, have a chance of hatching into a Nidoran♂, as well as an Egg laid by a Nidoran♂ with a {{p|Ditto}} has a chance of hatching into a Nidoran♀.
* Nidoran♀ is the only Pokémon that loses the ability to breed upon evolution.
* Nidoran♀'s {{pkmn2|Shiny|alternate coloration}} is similar to {{p|Nidoran♂}}'s normal coloration, and vice versa for Nidoran♂.
* Nidoran♀ shares its {{pkmn|category}} name with {{p|Nidorina}}, {{p|Nidoran♂}}, {{p|Nidorino}}, {{p|Poipole}}, and {{p|Naganadel}}. They are all known as the Poison Pin Pokémon.
* Due to the fact that its gender, ♀, is included in its name, checking Nidoran♀'s summary from [[Generation II]] onward will display as if it were genderless if it does not have a nickname. If its nickname is anything other than "Nidoran♀", its gender will appear as normal.

===Origin===
Nidoran♀ appears to draw inspiration from {{wp|hamster}}s, {{wp|rabbit}}s (perhaps an {{wp|Amami rabbit}}, specifically), {{wp|mice}}, or {{wp|porcupine}}s, with aspects of {{wp|venomous mammal}}s. Anatomically, however, they are arguably most like {{wp|hyrax}}es – small, {{wp|rodent}}-like mammals that are genetically more closely related to much larger mammals like elephants and manatees featuring thickset bodies with tough hides (similar to {{p|Nidorina}} and {{p|Nidoqueen}}).

====Name origin====
Nidoran♀ may be derived from ''needle''. It may also come from ''{{wp|cnidocyte}}'', a type of venomous cell responsible for the stings delivered by stinging animals, most notably jellyfish. Alternatively, it may be based on 二 ''ni'' (two) or 二度 ''nido'' (two times/two degrees) referring to the two distinct evolutionary lines with similar names and traits. Also, the Japanese word ''ran'' is translated as ''orchid'' in English. {{wp|Orchid}}s are flowers that can be purple or blue, these being the same colors as the male and female evolutionary forms of Nidoran, respectively. The ''♀'' is an indication of its female gender.

'''Nidoran♂''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ニドラン♂''' ''Nidoran♂'') is a {{type|Poison}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Nidorino}} starting at [[level]] 16, which evolves into {{p|Nidoking}} when exposed to a [[Moon Stone]].

It is related to {{p|Nidoran♀}} and, starting in [[Generation V]], can produce {{pkmn|Egg}}s that contain either Nidoran♂ or Nidoran♀ when [[Pokémon breeding|bred]] with {{p|Ditto}}.

==Biology==
Nidoran♂ is a small, quadruped rodent-like Pokémon. It is pinkish purple with darker spots, and has large, spiny ears with teal insides, oversized front teeth, and red eyes. Its back is covered with three lines of large spines that can release potent poisons if threatened. The center line of spines is taller than the other two. The size of the long, pointed horn on its forehead is indicative of the strength of its venom. Nidoran♂ is an exclusively male Pokémon, {{p|Nidoran♀}} being its female counterpart.

Nidoran♂ constantly listens for the sounds of approaching enemies with its large ears. Said ears have unique muscles that allow them to be moved in any direction, and even the slightest sound does not escape Nidoran♂'s notice. In order to listen to distant locations, it flaps its ears like wings. When angry, it extends its toxic spikes and charges, stabbing with its horn to inject poison. Nidoran♂ lives in open spaces, such as {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|savannas and plains}}.

==Trivia==
* Nidoran was the first Pokémon to feature [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|gender differences]], or even gender at all.
* Despite the addition of genders in all Pokémon starting in Generation II, the two variations of Nidoran remained separate species, rather than a singular species that splits down different evolution paths based on gender.
** When an {{pkmn|Egg}} is produced from Nidoran and Ditto parents, the gender ratio of the Egg favors the gender of the non-Ditto parent by an unknown margin.
** A Nidoran♀ {{pkmn|Egg}} has a chance of hatching into a Nidoran♂ when bred with a non-Nidoran♂ compatible father.
* Nidoran♂'s {{pkmn2|Shiny|alternate coloration}} is similar to {{p|Nidoran♀}}'s normal coloration. The same goes for Nidoran♀ .
* Nidoran♂ shares its {{pkmn|category}} name with {{p|Nidorino}}, {{p|Nidoran♀}}, {{p|Nidorina}}, {{p|Poipole}}, and {{p|Naganadel}}. They are all known as the Poison Pin Pokémon.
* Due to the fact that its gender, ♂, is included in its name, checking Nidoran♂'s summary from [[Generation II]] onward will display as if it were genderless if it does not have a nickname. If its nickname is anything other than "Nidoran♂", its gender will appear as normal.
* Nidoran♂ is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 273.

===Origin===
Nidoran♂ appears to draw inspiration from {{wp|hamster}}s, {{wp|rabbit}}s, {{wp|mice}}, or – given their aggressive nature towards one another – {{wp|porcupine}}s, with aspects of {{wp|venomous mammal}}s. However, anatomically they are arguably most like {{wp|hyrax}}es – small, {{wp|rodent}}-like mammals that are genetically more closely related to much larger mammals like elephants and manatees featuring thickset bodies with tough hides (similar to {{p|Nidorino}} and {{p|Nidoking}}).

====Name origin====
Nidoran♂ may be derived from ''needle''. It may also come from ''{{wp|cnidocyte}}'', a type of venomous cell responsible for the stings delivered by stinging animals, most notably jellyfish. Alternatively, it may be based on 二 ''ni'' (two) or 二度 ''nido'' (two times/two degrees) referring to the two distinct evolutionary lines with similar names and traits. Also, the Japanese word ''ran'' is translated as ''orchid'' in English. {{wp|Orchid}}s are flowers that can be purple or blue, these being the same colors as the male and female evolutionary forms of Nidoran, respectively. The ''♂'' is an indication of its male gender.

'''Dusclops''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サマヨール''' ''Samayouru'') is a {{type|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Duskull}} starting at [[level]] 37 and evolves into {{p|Dusknoir}} when [[trade]]d holding a [[Reaper Cloth]].

==Biology==
Dusclops has a roundish gray body with two stubby legs. Its body is hollow and can absorb anything much like a {{wp|black hole}}. It has a single red eye and three tooth-like projections. It has two wispy, light gray growths coming out of its shoulders and one on top of its head. Its light gray hands appear to be directly attached to its body. It will wave these hands to hypnotize opponents, and then force them to do as it wills. Dusclops usually lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|thick forests}}.

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* {{g|Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire}}: Dusclops has its own mini-game on the Sapphire Table, which can be accessed the first time the three Poké Balls in the middle of the table are lit up. Dusclops will not appear until 20 {{p|Duskull}} have been hit. After that, Dusclops must be hit five times to win. However, it will suck up the ball for a brief period if attacked from the front so it must be hit from behind or while it is moving.

==Trivia==
* Dusclops can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Banette}}. Both are [[Generation III]] Ghost-type Pokémon that evolve from their pre-evolutions at level 37. Both also have the same base stat total. Wild Dusclops are exclusive to Ruby, while wild Banette are exclusive to Sapphire.

===Origin===
Dusclops seems to be based on the {{wp|Hitotsume-kozō}}, a humanoid cyclops-like ghost. It also has similarities with the {{wp|Chōchin-obake}}, which are one-eyed haunted paper lanterns, and {{wp|Mummy (monster)|mummies}}, which are often depicted as undead monsters.
====Name origin====
Dusclops may be a combination of ''{{wp|dusk}}'' and ''{{wp|cyclops}}''.

Samayouru may be a combination of 彷徨う ''samayou'' (to wander about) and 夜 ''yoru'' ({{wp|night}}).

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* {{g|Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire}}: Dusclops has its own mini-game on the Sapphire Table, which can be accessed the first time the three Poké Balls in the middle of the table are lit up. Dusclops will not appear until 20 {{p|Duskull}} have been hit. After that, Dusclops must be hit five times to win. However, it will suck up the ball for a brief period if attacked from the front so it must be hit from behind or while it is moving.

==Trivia==
* Dusclops can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Banette}}. Both are [[Generation III]] Ghost-type Pokémon that evolve from their pre-evolutions at level 37. Both also have the same base stat total. Wild Dusclops are exclusive to Ruby, while wild Banette are exclusive to Sapphire.

===Origin===
Dusclops seems to be based on the {{wp|Hitotsume-kozō}}, a humanoid cyclops-like ghost. It also has similarities with the {{wp|Chōchin-obake}}, which are one-eyed haunted paper lanterns, and mummies.
====Name origin====
Dusclops may be a combination of ''{{wp|dusk}}'' and ''{{wp|cyclops}}''.

Samayouru may be a combination of 彷徨う ''samayou'' (to wander about) and 夜 ''yoru'' ({{wp|night}}).

===NPC appearances===
* {{g|Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire}}: Dusclops has its own mini-game on the Sapphire Table, which can be accessed the first time the three Poké Balls in the middle of the table are lit up. Dusclops will not appear until 20 {{p|Duskull}} have been hit. After that, Dusclops must be hit five times to win. However, it will suck up the ball for a brief period if attacked from the front so it must be hit from behind or while it is moving.

==Trivia==
* Dusclops can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Banette}}. Both are [[Generation III]] Ghost-type Pokémon that evolve from their pre-evolutions at level 37. Both also have the same base stat total. Wild Dusclops are exclusive to Ruby, while wild Banette are exclusive to Sapphire.

===Origin===
Dusclops seems to be based on the {{wp|Hitotsume-kozō}}, a humanoid cyclops-like ghost. It also has similarities with the {{wp|Chōchin-obake}}, which are one-eyed haunted paper lanterns, and mummies. Dusclops also somewhat resembles a {{wp|Mummy (monster)|mummy}}, which are depicted in the context of an undead monster.

====Name origin====
Dusclops may be a combination of ''{{wp|dusk}}'' and ''{{wp|cyclops}}''.

Samayouru may be a combination of 彷徨う ''samayou'' (to wander about) and 夜 ''yoru'' ({{wp|night}}).

'''Magmar''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ブーバー''' ''Boober'') is a {{type|Fire}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Magby}} starting at [[level]] 30 and evolves into {{p|Magmortar}} when [[trade]]d holding a [[Magmarizer]].

==Biology==
Magmar is a bipedal Pokémon with a red body that has yellow flame designs on it. A row of red spikes runs down its back, and there are two lumps on its forehead with a flame on top of each one. It has a puckered, yellow beak and small eyes. Its thighs are yellow, and it has red feet with two, clawed toes each. Its arms are covered in rigid, red scales and it has red hands with five, clawed fingers. It has black, metal shackles on its neck and ankles. At the tips of its yellow tail is a flame.

Magmar's body temperature is nearly 2,200 °F (1,200 °C), giving its body an orange glow. [[EP058|The anime]] has shown that extremely well trained Magmar can block {{type|Electric}} attacks with super-heated air. Because it hates cold places, this Pokémon typically resides in and around active {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|volcanoes}}. This Pokémon has even been known to spit scorching flames to establish an ideally warm environment for itself.

Magmar is able to heal its wounds by dipping them into lava. In battle, it blows out intense flames from all over its body as to intimidate its foes and incinerate its surroundings. However, an outmatched Magmar will quickly retreat, using its fiery camouflage and its wavering, rippling glare to blend into any present fires.

==Trivia==
* Magmar and {{p|Electabuzz}} seem to be counterparts; both evolve in a very similar way (first at level 30, then after being traded holding an "-izer" item), and both are typically exclusive to one version of a pair of games. They both have similar Status-inducing abilities in Flame Body and Static, as well as the same Hidden Ability Vital Spirit. Since Generation V, they also often learn similar moves at the same level. They even have the same special moves when purified from Pokémon XD: {{m|Follow Me}} and {{m|Cross Chop}}. Their pre-evolutions and evolutions were released in the same generation.

===Origin===
Magmar seems to be a combination of a {{wp|booby}} or {{wp|duck}} with a mythical {{wp|Salamander#Mythology|salamander}} of fire. However, the tail and the spikes on its back resemble those of an {{wp|iguana}}. It is possibly overall based on a {{wp|Karura}}, depicted in Japanese Hindu-Buddhist {{wp|Japanese mythology|mythology}} as a birdlike, fire-breathing creature, similar to how its counterpart {{p|Electabuzz}} is based on an {{wp|oni}}. Magmar's appearance and affinity for volcanic environments may be a reference to the Solarites from the infamous 1961 sci-fi flop {{wp|The Phantom Planet}}.

====Name origin====
Magmar may be a corruption of the word ''{{wp|magma}}'' (intrusive molten rock), but may also involve the word ''mar'' (to damage or spoil), referring to the incineration of its surroundings to suit its own needs, or the Spanish ''fumar'' (to smoke).

Boober may be a combination of ''{{wp|booby}}'' (a type of sea bird) and a corruption of ''burn''.
