TLN: /* Exclusivity */

==Which Stat?==
It says it will download based on the foe's lowest stat. Does that mean the attack corresponding to the lower defense is raised? It seems that way, but it's not entirely clear to me from the description. [[User:Cheesus Is Lord|Cheesus Is Lord]] 04:33, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
:I also wondered this. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 04:47, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
:: Download raises Attack or Sp Attack based on weather the foe's Defense or Sp Defense stat is lower. For instance, against Blissy, Download always boosts Attack, and against Golem it will aways boost Sp Attack. So you are correct, it raises an offensive state based on which of the opponent's defensive stats is lower. [[User:Trainer-c|Trainer-c]] 07:12, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
:::What if they're both the same? {{unsigned|TorchicBlaziken}}

== Triple Battles ==

It doesn't say how the raised stat is determined in Triple Battles. Presumably it's the same way, but can someone confirm that? The same should probably done for Horde Battles. And maybe Rotational Battles. --[[User:WyndFox|Wynd]] [[User talk:WyndFox|Fox]] 23:27, 24 January 2014 (UTC)

==Exclusivity==
If this is the signature ability of Porygon's line, why can Genesect have this ability? I'm curious. [[User:GalarChamp Cinderace|Hello, it's me, GalarChamp Cinderace!]] ([[User talk:GalarChamp Cinderace|talk]]) 16:31, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
: It was, prior to Generation V. An article pretty clearly says so at the very start. Until Genesect was released, an ability was indeed exclusive to Porygon's line. So can't see any contradiction here. [[User:TLN|TLN]] ([[User talk:TLN|talk]]) 16:39, 24 March 2021 (UTC)

'''Download''' (Japanese: '''ダウンロード''' ''Download'') is an [[Ability]] introduced in [[Generation IV]]. Four {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} can have this Ability. Prior to [[Generation V]], it was the [[signature Ability]] of {{p|Porygon}}'s [[evolution]]ary line.

==Effect==
===In battle===
Download raises either the {{stat|Attack}} stat or {{stat|Special Attack}} stat by one stage depending on the foe's lowest current defensive stat (i.e. it will raise Special Attack if the foe's current {{stat|Special Defense}} is lower than its current {{stat|Defense}} stat). If the foe's Defense and Special Defense are equal, the Special Attack stat is increased. During a Double Battle, Download will add the two opposing Pokémon's stats and calculate the lower stat between both.

===Outside of battle===
Download has no effect outside of battle.

Talk:Soaring in the sky

2015-02-09T14:24:14Z

TLN:

==Mirage spots==
I think we need to address the issue of multiple Mirage Caves, Islands and Forest from previous gens, games and the TCG.

So to try and minimize confusion between the old [[Mirage Cave]], [[Mirage Island]] and [[Mirage Forest]] and Gen VI Mirage Cave, Island, and Forest, we should change the Mirage Cave article to Mirage Cave Article to ''Mirage Cave (Mystery Dungeon)'' and turn the Mirage Cave Article into a directory article like the Unknown Dungeon article http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Unknown_Dungeon which would direct people to either the Mystery Dungeon version or the ORAS version ''Mirage Cave (Hoenn)''

Next, the Mirage Island article (which is the real [censored] of this all) should also be turned into a Directory article. It should direct people to ''Mirage Island (RSE)'' for the Gen III version, and ''Mirage Island (ORAS)'' for the Gen VI version. Or we could also carefully retrofit it to cover both the RSE version and the ORAS version. I'm not opposed to either option.

Finally there should be a Mirage Forest Directory article that article directs people to ''Mirage Forest (Holon)'' (which would more or less just go to the same article that Mirage Forest currently redirects to) and ''Mirage Forest (Hoenn)''

Since Mirage Mountain hasn't been used (to my knowledge) before, it simply should get a article titled ''Mirage Mountain (Hoenn)''. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 00:42, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
:Or we could just make them [[Mirage Forests]], [[Mirage Caves]], [[Mirage Islands]] and [[Mirage Mountains]] and throw a [[Template:Samename]] at the top. Or split them apart into 32 tiny, separate articles using the numbering system from the guide. [[User:Glik|glik]][[User talk:Glik|glak]] 01:31, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
::For now, it's best to just create four pages with the plural titles glik mentions. No direct conflicts, just add a little directory template on confusing pages like Mirage Island.
::In the meantime, we can continue debating page names or merges or splits or whatever; but at least the information won't wait on those decisions. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 01:42, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
:::I have created a preliminary page [[Mirage Islands|here]]. If the design is liked, it can become the template to make the other three. [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 17:34, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
::::That is a good start, but when you're in a mirage spot it will say Unknown Area and you can't tell where you are so the maps are not needed.[[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 05:34, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
:::::FWIW, I think maybe it would be nice if the locations were listed in numerical order of the route they're near (if it's near a city instead, then I suppose it'd depend on the earliest route connected to that city). [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 05:46, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
::::::The maps are just place holders. They will be layout images in the final version. I do agree with you on the numerical order, Tiddlywinks, we just need the other locations before the order can be finalized. [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 06:47, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
I did some searching around the web to see what others had to say about Mirage Islands. Its mostly a abyss of FAQ type stuff but I did learn that Serebii is counting Mirage Caves, Forests and Mountains as variations of the Mirage Islands, and not entirely separate Mirage Spots.

But we can't go by them lol. Anyways, does anyone have the Official Guide? How does it explain Mirage spots and Mirage Islands? [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 21:07, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
::It calls Mirage Islands a variety of Mirage spot, along with all the others. [[User:Glik|glik]][[User talk:Glik|glak]] 00:49, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

On a new note I have confirmed that while Daily Mirage spots are preselected and cannot be changed if the game had been reseted without saving it, for the extra Mirage Spots from Street Pass via an internet connection, it is random and it is possible to use a soft reset and get different Mirage Spots as long as the game is not saved first. I used this trick to help finish my hunt for the wild Pokémon that can only be caught there namely Elekid and Unown. If someone thinks it would be noteworthy to add details about the Street Pass thing I mentioned go right ahead as I have successfully confirmed this myself and performing it multiple times and can be easily proven by anyone else. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] ([[User talk:Tyler53841|talk]]) 21:36, 25 December 2014 (UTC)

Soaring would be a more suitable name for this article, imo. But if someone has a better title, feel free to suggest it.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:58, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
:While Soaring would be a better name, the in-game location for the Pokémon obtained via soaring is "Soaring in the sky". [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 05:20, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
::The purpose of this page was to be the location "Soaring in the sky". Adding the mechanics of soaring was my orignal idea because the mechanics page for soaring would be extremely short. [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 17:34, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
:::Here is evidence that this is a location: [https://www.dropbox.com/s/283hiwlo4l2l3n9/103_1259.JPG?dl=0| ORAS Dialga]. I don't have a capture card so I used my camera. [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 17:55, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
::::For what it's worth, the guide almost always refers to it as Soar. Instead of "Soaring", it usually says "using Soar", as if it were a move. If the mechanic and the "location" are to be lumped together, I think the mechanic should have naming precedence. [[User:Glik|glik]][[User talk:Glik|glak]] 00:49, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
:::::I think this come to down to policy. Which canon supersedes the other? I believe the page should stay as "Soaring in the sky" as the location make up over 95% of the page. [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 01:43, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
::::::There's not two canons, they're both in the game. Though I hesitate to call "Soaring in the sky" an actual location. It seems more like it just means you met it while Soaring. Besides, if this page were focused solely on the mechanic, the "location" information would still be relevant, as it's required to fully explain the mechanic. [[User:Glik|glik]][[User talk:Glik|glak]] 02:35, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
:::::::/late reply. But yeah, I agree that this page would be more suitable as a mechanics page with all the locations mentioned in the article.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 03:06, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
::::::::Ok, however the name of the area should still be mentioned somewhere on here. [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 04:42, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

== Sea Mauville ==

Should we list Sea Mauville? its a odd ball among the other Mirage spots. You can reach it without soaring, but it still has the mysterious floating rings. Or perhaps we should make a separate Mirage spot article? [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 18:23, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
:I don't think so. It does have the mysterious rings but unlike the other Mirage Spots, it is always there and doesn't require a certain Pokémon in your party to appear, or appear and disappear daily. [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 18:29, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

::But it does require a special item, and only the Mirage cave, forest, island, crescent isle and mountains temporarily disappear, and the Storm Clouds and rifts in the Space-Time Continuum vanish permanently. All the other places remain open, they just lose the red shimmer effect but they can still be traveled to.

::I believe it deserves some mention.[[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 18:54, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

:::I disagree with putting it on. This page is for the locations that are accessible only through soaring. But let's wait for another opinion before adding it on the page. [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 19:19, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

::::Aren't the ring portals considered spots themselves? If so, then we need a article dedicated only to Mirage spots and/or these rings. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 19:42, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

:::::If we made a page dedicated to just the rings or to the mirage spot idea, it would be a short page if it had nothing from this page. The spots already have pages and links from and to this page. Those mentioned on this page require soaring to reach all of them. The rings that appear in areas that you can reach without soaring (the Sea Mauville and the Scorched Slab) don't really need to be on the page. [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 20:24, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

Well, lets look at it this way. How many locations are only available through {{m|surf}}? Sure there are Pokémon you can encounter while surfing listed, but all the locations themselves are not. We need to make this article only about soaring, we can keep the list of Pokémon from flocks but put all other info into their own articles. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 20:36, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
:Perhaps you can just add another header under Locations. Perhaps you could add a new section "Normal locations" (or something better, IDK what) before the current sections and re-emphasize that any previously visited location can be visited from the sky, and at the same time note that Sea Mauville and the Scorched Slab inexplicably have the floating rings.
:After all, if the section is "Locations", that implies to me that it should cover ''all'' accessible locations, not just the special ones.
:@Yamitora: Surf isn't a great analogy. Surf is purely a mechanic, and you can surf in many different locations (yielding many different sets of encounterable Pokemon); but "soaring" is a mechanic that gives you access to a single area (with one set of Pokemon)...from which multiple other special areas are accessible. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 20:44, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

::Ok, two things. One: This article is about the location "Soaring in the sky" (see the above post in the Move section). The reason that there is the mechanics for soaring are on this page is that the page would be a stub if soaring (the mechanic) was its own page. The reason that the other locations are mention is that they can only be visited via soaring. It is like an extended ''connection locations'' section of the location info box (look at Route 101 to see what I mean).
::Second thing: I looked on Pokémon.com to see if the wording could give the definition of "Mirage Spot." The wording points to the rings themselves being the Mirage Spots. So, yes, I do now agree that a link to the Sea Mauville and the Scorched Slab can be on this page, they just need to be under their own subsection. Thereby, I agree with Tiddlywinks. [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 20:57, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

:::Any one else feel like smacking the GameFreak Director in the Lillycove Hotel and yelling "You're making things too complicated!" ? I mean just go right up to him from behind, and give him a good old fashion donkey punch to the back of the head! >_<

:::Anyways, come to think of it, In all the official chatter about soaring, they never specifically said that you could only reach Mirage spots via soaring, only that you could reach them with it and that you could find rare Pokémon with it. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 21:30, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
::::The website doesn't even mention the rings. In fact, it says ''In these games, you can encounter Legendary Pokémon in all kinds of places, and Mirage spots are just one of many!'', implying the rings are entirely separate from the spots. The guide backs this up by calling them "mysterious rings", and not conflating them with Mirage spots (which wouldn't make sense anyways, since the rings only show up at the special Mirage spots). There's no reason to list any location not exclusively reached through Soar. [[User:Glik|glik]][[User talk:Glik|glak]] 00:49, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

:::::I thought it was fairly clear that Mirage Spots refer to the temporary locations accessed by soaring, not to the "rings" containing Legendary Pokémon. Trainers encountered in Secret Bases say that Pokémon like Tangela or Happiny (ones that are found in tall grass or in Mirage Caves) can be "found in Mirage Spots". They also list Pokémon like Raikou that can be found in "rings" in Mirage Spots, but I would assume that that's because the Mirage Spot (Pathless Plain, Trackless Forest, etc.) are Mirage Spots that happen to have those rings in them, rather than because the rings themselves are the Mirage Spots. Considering that, I would agree that Sea Mauville and Scorched Slab should be removed from the page, since they are permanent locations that are accessible even without soaring—not Mirage Spots at all. --[[User:AndyPKMN|AndyPKMN]] [[User talk:AndyPKMN|(talk)]] 01:21, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

::::::My brain hurts. Pokémon.com is conflicting itself, on the same page. One section says the quote that Glik mentioned, but there is also this quote: "''Mirage spots can be found in the clouds and on small islands and in other locations''..." As there is no location it the clouds, just the ring, it make it seem that Mirage spots are the rings. Whether the Sea Mauville and the Scorched Slab belong here is a question of the exact definition of "Mirage spot." [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 01:35, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
{{indent}}The Storm Clouds are a Mirage spot. There aren't any rings just floating around, they're all inside a location. [[User:Glik|glik]][[User talk:Glik|glak]] 02:35, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
:Perhaps its a translation issue; perhaps the Japanese site better explains the rings, and its getting lost in translation?

:As for Sea Mauvile and the Scorched Slab being permanent, all of the main Mirage spots are permanent except for the islands, storm clouds and dimensional rifts. I caught the three Johto beasts and I can still travel to the Trackless Forest. Its only lost its red glimmer icon, nothing else. Also, the Mysterious rings still are the catalysis in which the event Pokémon appears even in the storm clouds/dimensional rifts. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 05:46, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

::The organization that I used is as follows: Daily are the Mirage spots that only appear for 24 hours and can only be accessed via soar. Fixed are the Mirage spots that are always accessible if the requirements are met, whether the red sparkle is there or not and can only be accessed via soaring. The Other is those that don't fit in the previous two, either disappearing permanently after the Pokémon are obtained (Rift and Cloud) or can be accessed while on the ground (Sea Mauville and Scorched Slab). [[User:Adamws|Adamws]] ([[User talk:Adamws|talk]]) 05:59, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

:::I see, well that certainly helps a lot. I still want to use a Choke pear on the gamefreak director for making my head hurt, but at least we have a good place to work from. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 06:07, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
::::<s>I think the current "definition" of Mirage spots is wrong. I think only the "Daily" locations are "Mirage spots". (In other words, basically like it was structured previously.) They seem to be the ones that really act like mirages, which is essentially [[User talk:Tiddlywinks#Capitalization|how the games define them]]. The "Fixed" locations just sound like they're uniquely accessible by Soaring, and the "Other" locations are just wrappings for special encounters. They're just easy to conflate with Mirage spots because they're all accessible by Soaring, but that's not the proper and complete requirement for a "Mirage spot".</s>I was wrong. Since the "Fixed" locations have conditions, they're like mirages. And I guess the clouds/gaps get a pass. Plus they're all mentioned on the official site... But I think there could be a better word than "Fixed" for that set of locations.
::::@Yamitora: I had a rather different image of what the rings might be at first, but seeing them on the official site and your new edit, I think they're ''nothing'' but portals to special encounters. They don't have any special connection with "Mirage spots", you're just overthinking it. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 06:29, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
::::Both Sea Mauville and the Scorched Slab portals do have conditions. You have to have a item for the former, and you have to have dealt with Groundon/Kyogre for the latter.[[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 07:12, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
:::::I'm thinking I really can't form a good opinion at this point without playing the game myself. But let me ask this: before beating Kyogre/Groundon, can you stand where the portal should be? If so, then I could agree that it's conditional; but if not...well, I could perhaps swing either way, but I'd lean a bit towards not. (This is still a bit separate from whether I think portal = Mirage spot. I want to play the game to decide that.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 16:46, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
With Sea Mauville, you can stand (or float) where the rings would appear before you get the item needed. With the Scorched Slab, to be honest I visited it before defeating Kyogre, and I'm not sure how I missed it, but I don't remember seeing the 3rd basement entry way until after defeating it.

== Official Names - Huge gap to Dimensional Rift; Black clouds to Storm clouds ==

It is said in the recent update of the official US website of Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire that you can encounter '''Dialga''', '''Palkia''' and '''Girantina''' in the '''''Dimensional Rift Mirage Spot''''' and '''Tornadus''', '''Thundurus''' and '''Landorus''' in the '''''Storm Cloud Mirage Spot''''', that can be both found in the skies of Hoenn.

:Looking like that, I'd have to say no. What you have for the "combination" for Bucking is very confusing to me and does not really imply A or Down+A to me like the page currently says. Also, with the joystick images, it can be hard to tell if they're showing it neutral or tilted in some direction.

"Soaring in the sky" is the official ''met location'' only. If you want to say this article is fine named for the met location, that's alright by me.

Is there perhaps a reason the QR Codes for the backdoor house are not on the wiki somewhere (like perhaps [[List of other event distributions in Generation VI]]; or on Mossdeep City itself, maybe in a gallery). You linked them in your edit summaries. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 02:54, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
:I think they should be on the wiki somewhere, I just didn't know where to put them. If you have a good place, by all means add them. I don't think they should be mixed in with other event distributions though. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 04:37, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

== PMD move mechanics. ==

So I was planning on researching PMD move workings in near future (so far, I've noticed that for some reason, there seems to be {{tt|two counters for drops and I have no idea how the other works|Normally, it caps at ±10, and so far [by playing Rescue Team] I've seen moves raise it by 1 or 2 and drop by 1 that work on normal cap}}, but seems to be cap at 4 uses). I've also noticed that German wiki has that nifty images to mark PMD targeting. The only place we have PMD info like that are the PMD-exclusive moves.

== Dream World Artwork ==

The [[Roseli Berry]], [[Kee Berry]] and [[Maranga Berry]] articles each list their PGL artwork as Dream World Artwork despite these berries being introduced in Gen VI, and the fact that Gen VI does not have a Dream World. Shouldn't we change it from Dream World to PGL? [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 01:39, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

== Heads-up on Soaring in the sky ==

Greetings. I hope it's okay if I'll leave my question here?
I feel like situation with duscussion of renaming Soaring in the sky went a bit too far with everything, not to telling about that aside of just decision to move it somethere, there's now also template asking about splitting it apart... and everyone in tell is now just talking about what suits them best in matters of article name, even though there's already redirects from alternative article name pages.
Maybe as member of Bulbapedia Staff, you can simply put an end to that discussion? i don't know... have a private discussion with other staff members on that topic for a bit, while talking on more important matters... as talk-page in Soaring in the sky now looks ridiculously long, as I see it.
Thanks for your attention. [[User:TLN|TLN]] ([[User talk:TLN|talk]]) 06:16, 9 February 2015 (UTC)

==Introduction==

Welcome to my talk page. Seems like somehow I caught your notion, so let me introduce myself. By my nickname I majorly known as Niles, TLN, or Dilicorn Niles. By real name, I'm better known as Nik.

As fresh member of Pokemon community, I'm not really a big person, as I mostly looking for different information that might be useful and important for me on all sorts of Pokemon topics. What i want is to harness as much of Pokemon knowledge as I can, try to get something new out of it and share it with others, if it's something where the first step is mine.

Yet for now, I'm nothing but a mere watcher and follower. But I indeed hope to eventually grow into something much greater and more helpful.

Enjoy your stay on Bulbapedia, one strongest and bestest Pokemon community wiki I know.

''More to come, eventually...''
