'''Janine''' (Japanese: '''アンズ''' ''Anzu'') is a [[Gym Leader]] in the [[Kanto League]]. She is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Fuchsia City]]'s {{pkmn|Gym}}, known officially as the [[Fuchsia Gym]], after her father, [[Koga]], is promoted to the [[Elite Four]] in [[Generation II]]. She specializes in {{type2|Poison}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. She gives the {{Badge|Soul}} to {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her.

==In the games==
Janine's first appearance was in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}. Following [[Koga]]'s promotion to the [[Elite Four]], she succeeded him as the [[Gym Leader]] of the [[Fuchsia Gym]]. Like her father, she is known as "The Poisonous Ninja Master", and uses {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon in battle. She appears in the same capacity in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.

Originally, Janine's goal was to use {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon just as well as her father. After becoming a Gym Leader, Janine hopes that by applying herself, she'll improve her skills and become better than her father, and (following her loss) the {{player|protagonist}}.

When encountered in her Gym, Janine hides behind the invisible walls that were installed prior to [[Generation I]]/{{gen|III}}. To further confuse her challengers, the junior Trainers of the Gym are disguised like Janine. Once they have been defeated, the Leader will battle with a team of Poison-type Pokémon. Once defeated, she will yield the {{badge|Soul}} and a Poison-type [[TM]]: {{TM|06|Toxic}} in Generation II; {{TM|84|Poison Jab}} in Generation IV.

Like the other Gym Leaders of Kanto and Johto, Janine will leave her Gym from time to time in HeartGold and SoulSilver. Every evening between 4:00 PM and 6:00 PM, she can be found at the [[Pokémon League Reception Gate]] near {{ka|Victory Road}}, on her way to visit her father and deliver his lunch (from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, she will say she is done delivering the lunch and offer to take a [[photograph]] with the player). She will give travelers her phone number, after which she can be called on Monday afternoons to arrange a rematch at [[Saffron City]]'s [[Fighting Dojo]]. On Mondays, she can be found in the [[Celadon Department Store]] arguing with [[Falkner]] over which of their fathers is the superior Trainer.

Before the events that led to her employment as the Gym Leader, Janine hung around outside the Fuchsia Zoo. She will tell the protagonist of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} that Koga is teaching her how to use Poison Pokémon in an obvious reference to the previously released Generation II games.

Janine also appears in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]]'s Kanto [[Gym Leader Castle]]. This is the only time in which her active team contains Pokémon not of the Poison-type.

===Pokémon===
This listing is for Janine's Pokémon in the video games in which she has appeared.

==In the Pokémon Adventures manga==
[[File:Janine Adventures.png|right|thumb|Janine and her Ariados]]
Janine is the daughter of [[Koga]], and the new Gym Leader at [[Fuchsia City]]. She does, however, leave town on many occasions to perform various jobs/ simulations for anyone with the money to hire her. She was shown in ''[[PS136|VS. Crobat]]'' to be in the middle of such a job, pretending to steal a large pearl to test the security at the {{ci|Goldenrod}} Museum. After completing it, she pauses on a rooftop to wonder what she is doing with her life.

Her father, being both a ninja and a member of [[Team Rocket]], had hoped to make her a member as well, both serving their master, [[Giovanni]]. But with Koga and Giovanni's disappearance, she was left alone and unguided. Searching for not just her father, but a master, Janine found herself in the same situation as {{p|Suicune}}, whom also was searching for a Trainer in its upcoming battle.

Suddenly, Suicune appeared before Janine, and challenged her with her Crobat. Suicune seemed initially caught off-guard by her tactics, but soon won. Before he left, Janine expressed her desires for finding her own master, just as she felt Suicune was.

Janine later fought against [[Falkner]] at the Gym Leaders Challenge. Despite overwhelming attacks, she forfeited the match when she left the battlefield, pursuing who she thought was her father. She never did catch the mysterious person, however, and it is unknown if they will ever meet again.

==Trivia==
* In the English versions of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, her name is mistakenly listed as '''Charine''' in Koga's [[Fame Checker]] entries.
* In {{5v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Janine's Pokémon are the lowest leveled of all the Kanto Gym Leaders. This may reflect her status as the newest Gym Leader.
* In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Janine can appear in two places at once. When she is called for a rematch on Monday during the day, she will be at the [[Fighting Dojo]] and in the [[Celadon Department Store]], talking to [[Falkner]].
* Chuang Yi mistakenly refers to her by her Japanese name, '''Anzu''', rather than her English name, in {{PAV|11}} of Pokémon Adventures. This was corrected in following volumes.
* In the Generation II games, her whole Pokémon team was the opposite gender to her despite the 50-50 gender ratio. This was changed in HeartGold and SoulSilver, in which she has an all female team rather than an all male team like before.
*Janine is the only Gym Leader introduced prior to Generation V not to make an appearance in the anime.
*In the English versions of the Generation II games, there is a grammatical error in the sentence where she gives the Soul Badge to the player. This was corrected in the remakes.
*Janie is the only [[Kanto]] [[Gym Leader]] other than [[Giovanni]] who cannot be battled in all Japan Based [[Regions]].

It evolves into {{p|Liepard}} starting at level 20.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Purrloin is a primarily purple-colored, feline Pokémon. Its head is large proportional to its body, and tufted at its ears and cheeks.

The lower portion of its forelimbs are purple, and the tip of its tail sports a curved, vaguely scythe-like extension.

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

====Special abilities====
Purrloin can stand on its rear legs.

===Behavior===
It likes to play with people's belongings and making off with them. In order to do so, it often puts up a cute act to put people's guard down before stealing their belongings.

* Purrloin is the only Pokémon that has a base stat total of 281.
*Even though Purrloin has a 50/50 gender ratio, in his/her Poképark Pad Entry it is referred to as female.

===Origin===

'''Pichu''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ピチュー''' ''Pichu'') is an {{type2|Electric}} [[baby Pokémon]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Pikachu}} when [[level]]ed up with high [[happiness]], which evolves into {{p|Raichu}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Thunderstone}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Pichu is a small ground-dwelling rodent. Its fur is very short, and it is pale yellow in color. The tips of its large ears are black, and it has additional black markings on its neck and tail. Its tail is short, but still bears some resemblance to the large lightning-bolt structure it will develop later on in life. It has pouches in its cheeks, which are pinkish colored and used for storing electricity. Its nose is extremely small, almost like a dot. It is classified as a {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with a quadruped body|quadruped}}, but many have been known to walk easily on their hind legs.

====Gender differences====
Pichu normally have no gender differences; however, the [[Spiky-eared Pichu]], which is female, has a spiked ear.

====Special abilities====
Pichu, like its evolutions, is capable of producing {{t|electric}}al sparks from its cheeks, charging itself with electricity more easily on days with thunderclouds or when the air is very dry. However, since Pichu is only a {{pkmn2|baby}}, it cannot control them as well, and may release electricity unintentionally. However, it is not able to store large amounts of electricity in its body.

Pichu, and its evolution family, {{p|Pikachu}} and {{p|Raichu}}, are the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that can learn {{m|Volt Tackle}}.

===Behavior===
Pichu are social Pokémon known for their playfulness. They tend to be very mischievous and are always on the lookout for something fun to do. They are usually found in groups, typically with members of their own species, but occasionally with other types of Pokémon. Like their evolutions, they are capable of storing electricity from the atmosphere, however, this ability requires much practice to perfect. Pichu are prone to randomly discharging electricity, as they are not fully mature. They become better at holding power as they grow older. Pichu are frequently observed touching tails with each other, creating a shower of sparks.

===Habitat===
[[File:Forest.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon}}]]
Pichu primarily live in forests like their evolution, Pikachu, although they have also been depicted to thrive in urban areas.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Pichu appear to be particularly fond of {{wp|apple}}s.

The Pichu Brothers are a pair of Pichu who have appeared in several places, including ''[[PK07|Pikachu & Pichu]]'', ''[[PK11|Camp Pikachu]]'', several episodes of [[Pokémon Chronicles]], and the [[Pokémon Channel]] special ''[[Pichu Bros. in Party Panic]]''. Their design is similar to [[Ash's Pikachu]] and [[Sparky]], in that one has a scruff of fur while the other does not.

====[[Spiky-eared Pichu]]====

A Pichu had a role in ''[[SS019|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters out of the Gate!]]'' Pichu's big brother, Pikachu, was lost and he was so worried, the Baby Electric Mouse went out to find him. Pichu came across Team Meanies, but they played a horrible trick on Pichu when asked to join them. Pichu found Team Go-Getters, who gladly let him come along with them. Pichu was eventually kidnapped by the {{p|Skarmory}} that had kidnapped Pikachu.

Another Pichu appeared in ''[[DP074|Pika and Goliath!]]'' under the ownership of [[Sho]].

Ukulele Pichu appeared in the [[Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs]] [[SS022|Anime Special]], and was captured by {{ra|Ben}} in the [[SS023|concluding part]].

==Trivia==
* Pichu used to be game director [[Junichi Masuda]]'s favorite Pokémon.<ref>http://www.gamepro.com/article/previews/209340/pokemon-platinum-developer-interview-pt-2/</ref> His new favorite is {{p|Victini}}.<ref>http://ds.ign.com/articles/115/1150433p1.html</ref>
* Pichu is the first [[baby Pokémon]] in the [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|National Pokédex]] listing.
* Pichu is the only [[Generation II]] Pokémon to be playable in [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] (although many others have appeared from [[Poké Ball]]s). Like in the anime, it hurts itself when using electrical attacks.
* Pichu is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 205 that is not based on a cocoon.
* Together with {{p|Seedot}}, {{p|Rattata}} and {{p|Magikarp}}, Pichu is the easiest Pokémon to catch in {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}, with only one loop necessary.
* Due to it being distributed via [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]] for European and North American games, the Pikachu-colored Pichu, a {{Shiny}} Pichu, was the first Pokémon to be given out over Wi-Fi Connection outside Japan.
**{{p|Jirachi}} has this honor for the Japanese games, as well as overall.
* Despite being able to learn {{m|ThunderPunch}} through breeding, it can't learn it via [[move tutor]].
* Pichu is the first Pokémon in the [[National Pokédex]] to be a pre-evolution of a Pokémon from a [[Generation I|previous generation]].
*[[Gold's Pichu]] has a ruffle of fur on it's head.

===Origin===
Pichu draws inspiration from {{wp|mice}}, {{wp|squirrel}}s, and various other {{wp|rodent}}s.

====Name origin====
Pichu's name is a shortening of the name ''{{p|Pikachu}}'' to indicate that it is less than Pikachu. Its name, like Pikachu's, is a combination of ピカピカ ''pikapika'', which is Japanese onomatopoeia for sparkle, and チューチュー ''chūchū'', which is the sound of squeaking.

'''Dugtrio''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ダグトリオ ''' ''Dugtrio'') is a {{type2|Ground}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Diglett}} starting at [[level]] 26.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
They are {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon consisting of multiple bodies|three Diglett huddled together}}, although what they look like underground is a mystery. They may be fused together, but that is uncertain. They are known, however, to have feet, as revealed in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]] and [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky]].

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

====Special abilities====
They tunnel under the earth at 60mph, triggering tremors and {{m|earthquake}}s.

===Behavior===
Its three heads bob separately up and down to loosen the soil nearby, making it easier for it to burrow. Each triplet composing a Dugtrio trio thinks exactly like the other two triplets. They work cooperatively to burrow endlessly. In battle, it digs through the ground and strikes the unsuspecting foe from an unexpected direction.

===Habitat===
[[File:Cave.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon}}]]
Dugtrio live in tunnels and caves under the earth. They also sometimes live in burrows near forests where they maintain the soil & plant trees to revitalize wooded areas. They also have been shown to live in trees as high as the {{wp|Canopy (biology)|canopy}}. They are normally native to [[Kanto]] but can be found in [[Sinnoh]] as well.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Dugtrio feed on plant roots.

==In the anime==
[[File:Katie Dugtrio.png|right|thumb|Dugtrio in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Dugtrio first appeared in ''[[EP031|Dig Those Diglett]]''. They worked with Diglett to plant trees in a forest.

In ''[[EP114|The Underground Round Up]]'', Poncho used Diglett and Dugtrio to rid a town of {{p|Electrode}}. Poncho only used his Dugtrio to get rid of Team Rocket's [[Team Rocket Mechas|Electrode Eliminator]].

[[Katie]] used a Dugtrio against {{Ash}} during the [[Hoenn]] League in ''[[AG128|Shocks and Bonds]]''. Katie's Dugtrio defeated [[Ash's Pikachu]] and was defeated by [[Ash's Glalie]].

===Minor appearances===
Dugtrio appeared in the ''[[SS020|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time & Darkness]]'' special as sentries for the [[Wigglytuff's Guild|Wigglytuff Guild]], alongside Diglett.

In ''[[DP091|One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team]]'', [[Conway]] used a Dugtrio in the first leg of the Pokémon Triathlon.

A group of Dugtrio appeared in ''[[DP145|A Rivalry to Gible On!]]''.

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
In the [[Pokémon Stadium 2 (stage)|Pokémon Stadium 2]] stage, a Dugtrio can be seen on the {{t|Ground}} Terrain situated next to a large rock. {{p|Cubone}} & Pokémon fossils can also be seen on the Ground Terrain.

==== Trophy Information ====

''"A Mole Pokémon. It has three heads that seem to all think the same thing. It lives in caves and is skilled at digging--no matter how hard the ground is, it can dig up to 62 miles below the surface. It's among the fastest of Ground-type Pokémon, a characteristic that can be counted on in combat. Its {{m|Sand Tomb}} is an effective attack that prevents opponents from escaping."''

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* {{g|Pinball}}: Dugtrio appears in a bonus stage that can be accessed by the Red Table. After the player has knocked out a number of {{p|Diglett}}, they must knock out the Dugtrio that appears to win.

==Trivia==
* Dugtrio and its pre-evolution can learn {{m|Scratch}}, {{m|Slash}}, {{m|Fury Swipes}}, {{m|Shadow Claw}}, and {{m|Cut}} (from {{game|Yellow}} onwards) despite not seeming to have hands or claws, and {{m|Aerial Ace}}, despite never appearing to leave the ground.
* Dugtrio and its evolutionary line share the same [[species]] name with {{p|Drilbur}}. They are all known as Mole Pokémon.
* Up until {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}, Dugtrio and Diglett could only be caught in [[Diglett's Cave]].
* Dugtrio is the fastest {{type2|Ground}} Pokémon.
* In the [[Pokéathlon]], Dugtrio and Diglett are seen to go underground rather than physically jump out of the ground in the Hurdle Dash.
* In {{game|Black and White|s}}, when Dugtrio and Diglett are sent out, they merely fade onto the screen instead of dropping down like all other Pokémon.
* In the [[Poké Transfer]], Dugtrio and Diglett run between bushes rather than jump.
*Like many Pokémon, Dugtrio's shiny formation shows a blue nose, while if shininess would have been available in the [[Generation I]] games, nothing would have happened, because in those games, his/her body was entirely brown.

===Origin===
Dugtrio appears to be very similar to the artificial moles used in the {{wp|Whac-A-Mole}} arcade games.

====Name origin====
Dugtrio's name is a combination of ''dug'', the past tense of ''dig'', and ''trio'', meaning three.
