Teelo: /* Can be found in Shield */

== origin + name origin speculation ==

we've already got that it's based on a cell/growing human, but no one has connected that to it's name. I believe it's name Daburan (containing "double") is referencing either mitosis (less likely) or Daburan being a zygote (very likely), backed up by Yuniran containing "uni". [[User:Kanjo|Kanjo]] 12:58, 12 November 2010 (UTC)

:Btw "ran", which is suggested to mean "spawn" should be "egg" (Japanese kanji are often listed as having many various meanings; however, when the character is on it's own, it usually only means one or two of these. 卵 is supposedly "spawn", but that meaning is only obtained in combinations with other kanji. Alone, the character pretty exclusively means "egg") [[User:Kanjo|Kanjo]] 13:07, 12 November 2010 (UTC)

== Can be found in Shield ==

Can be found in Dusty Bowl during a Sandstorm, visible encounter. Neither this page nor the Dusty Bowl page seems to reflect this. I don't know the percentage. [[User:Teelo|Teelo]] ([[User talk:Teelo|talk]]) 23:48, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

Scratch that. Fog. And its on the Dusty Bowl page. 10% during Fog. [[User:Teelo|Teelo]] ([[User talk:Teelo|talk]]) 23:50, 10 July 2020 (UTC)

National Pokédex

2019-05-08T12:22:34Z

Teelo: /* Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire */ This just isn't true. Tested and confirmed - National Dex was unlocked from trading with Colosseum and getting a 'mon not in the Hoenn dex.

[[File:Pokédex Pt.png|thumb|200px|{{v2|Platinum}}'s National Pokédex mode]]
[[File:Pokédex GSC 2.png|thumb|Each new generation begins its numbering from the end of the last generation. {{p|Cyndaquil}}, at #155, is the fourth Pokémon introduced in Generation II.]]
The '''National Pokédex''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|全国図鑑|ぜんこくずかん}}''' ''national illustrated encyclopedia'') is a [[Pokédex]] that has been upgraded with the '''National Mode''' (Japanese: '''全国版''' ''National Edition'') that records information on all Pokémon known to exist, instead of just ones native in a particular [[region]]. The National Pokédex is not available at the start of the games, but it can be unlocked by completing certain tasks.

In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, the equivalent of the National Pokédex order was known as Old Pokédex Mode (Japanese: ふるいずかんモード ''old-style encyclopedia mode''), while Johto's regional Pokédex order at the time was known as [[List of Pokémon by New Pokédex number|New Pokédex Mode]] (Japanese: しんがたずかんモード ''new-style encyclopedia mode''). [[Generation III]] introduced the first official "National Pokédex".

==[[Generation III]]==
===Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire===
In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, the [[Pokédex]] is upgraded with the National Mode after the game trades with {{game2|FireRed|LeafGreen|Emerald|or}}, {{g|Colosseum}} or {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}}.

===Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen===
In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, if the player has 60 or more {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} owned in the [[List of Pokémon by Kanto Pokédex number|Kanto Pokédex]], has rescued [[Lostelle]] from the [[Berry Forest]] and has entered the [[Hall of Fame]], upon talking to [[Professor Oak]] in [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|his lab]] in [[Pallet Town]], he will upgrade both the player's and {{ga|Blue}}'s [[Pokédex]]es with the National Mode.

After obtaining the National Pokédex, the player can obtain Pokémon introduced in {{cat|Generation II Pokémon|Generations II}} and {{cat|Generation III Pokémon|III}} via [[trade]] and [[evolution]]. This allows [[List of Pokémon with cross-generational evolutions|Generation I Pokémon to evolve into their Generation II forms]] (such as {{p|Golbat}} being able to evolve into {{p|Crobat}}); prior to obtaining the National Pokédex, these Pokémon will try to evolve but fail. However, the player cannot trade with {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} until they have delivered the {{OBP|Ruby|item}} and {{OBP|Sapphire|item}} to [[Celio]] in the [[Pokémon Network Center]] on [[One Island]] to put into the Network Machine.

===Pokémon Emerald===
In {{game|Emerald}}, after the player enters the [[Hall of Fame]] for the first time, when they exit their house in [[Littleroot Town]] after resuming their game, [[Professor Birch]] and {{ga|Brendan}} or {{ga|May}} will be waiting for the player. Birch will escort the two of them to his lab, where he will upgrade both of their [[Pokédex]]es with the National Mode.

After obtaining the National Pokédex, the player can trade with any [[Generation III]] game, as long as that game has the ability to trade with Emerald. After obtaining the National Pokédex, if the player has all collected all 200 non-{{pkmn2|Mythical}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in the [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number (Generation III)|Hoenn Pokédex]], Birch will offer the player their choice of one of the [[Johto]] [[starter Pokémon]].

==[[Generation IV]]==
===Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum===
In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, if the player has seen the first 150 {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]], they can obtain the National Pokédex. In {{game|Platinum}}, if the player has seen all 210 Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|expanded Sinnoh Pokédex]], they can obtain the National Pokédex. If the player has met the appropriate condition for that game and talks to [[Professor Rowan]] in his lab in [[Sandgem Town]], [[Professor Oak]] will arrive and upgrade the player's [[Pokédex]] with the National Mode.

===Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver===
In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, after entering the [[Hall of Fame]], when the player attempts to board the [[S.S. Aqua]] for the first time, [[Professor Oak]] will appear and upgrade the player's [[Pokédex]] with the National Mode.

==[[Generation V]]==
===Pokémon Black and White===
In {{game|Black and White|s}}, after the player defeats [[Ghetsis]] at [[N's Castle]] and exits their house in [[Nuvema Town]] after resuming the game, [[Cedric Juniper]] will approach the player, {{ga|Bianca}}, and [[Cheren]], then upgrade their [[Pokédex]]es with the National Mode.

===Pokémon Black 2 and White 2===
In {{game|Black and White|s 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2}}, after the player enters the [[Hall of Fame]] and resumes the game from their house in [[Aspertia City]], [[Cedric Juniper]] will visit the player's house and upgrade their [[Pokédex]] with the National Mode.

==[[Generation VI]]==
===Pokémon X and Y===
In {{g|X and Y}}, after the player has entered the [[Hall of Fame]], upon entering {{DL|Lumiose City|Lumiose Station}}, [[Dexio]] will upgrade the player's [[Pokédex]] with the National Pokédex.

===Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire===
In {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, after the player has defeated or {{pkmn2|caught}} the [[Weather trio|super-ancient Pokémon]], if they talk to [[Professor Birch]] in his lab in [[Littleroot Town]], he will upgrade the player's [[Pokédex]] with the National Pokédex.

Unlike most games, non-[[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number (Generation VI)|native]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are obtainable without the National Pokédex; they begin appearing as soon as the player has met the prerequisites to obtain the National Pokédex, regardless of whether they obtain it. Using the [[PokéNav Plus]] to attempt to view their Pokédex entries will result in an entry of red text saying that no information is available on the Pokémon, and the areas found display will show "No reported sightings" over the map.

==[[Generation VII]]==
===Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon===
Both [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]] and [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]] do not include the National Pokédex.

===Pokémon Bank===
As part of its version 1.3 update to be compatible with [[Generation VII]], a National Pokédex feature was also added to [[Pokémon Bank]]. Bank's National Pokédex is able to display Pokédex entries from any Generation VI or later game. The Pokédex is updated based on the data of any game that is used to connect to Pokémon Bank.

Pokémon Bank's National Pokédex has an extensive search feature, including the ability to filter Pokémon by the games they are naturally available in (not counting the possibility of obtaining a Pokémon by breeding or evolving), as well as the ability to show the [[List of Pokémon by Kanto Pokédex number|Kanto]], [[List of Pokémon by Johto Pokédex number|Johto]], "[[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number (Generation III)|Good Old Hoenn]]", [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh]], [[List of Pokémon by New Unova Pokédex number|Unova]], [[List of Pokémon by Kalos Pokédex number|Kalos]] (divided into Central, Coastal, and Mountain), [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number (Generation VI)|Hoenn]], and [[List of Pokémon by Alola Pokédex number (Sun and Moon)|Alola]] Pokédex orders.

===Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!===
As [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] are remakes of [[Generation I]] and only feature the first 151 Pokémon, plus [[Meltan]] and [[Melmetal]], the National Pokédex is absent.

Despite Meltan and Melmetal being [[Generation VII]] Pokémon, they are registered as #152 and #153 in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by Kanto Pokédex number|Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee! expansion|Kanto Pokédex}}, respectively. However, their National Pokédex numbers, #808 and #809, can be seen viewing their [[Individual Values]].

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
In ''[[PS269|Return to Pallet Town]]'', {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Blue}} return their Pokédexes to {{adv|Professor Oak}} by placing them on a machine, and it is shown that {{adv|Green}} has already returned her Pokédex as well. In ''[[PS282|Going Green]]'', it is revealed that Oak requested the Pokédexes back with the purpose of upgrading them to National Pokédexes by including data from other regions. In ''[[PS287|Secrets from Sneasel]]'', Oak transfers data from the three old Pokédexes to new models and upgrades them to National Pokédexes by inserting a new computer chip on each Pokédex.

'''Hearthome City''' (Japanese: '''ヨスガシティ''' ''Yosuga City'') is a city in the [[region]] of [[Sinnoh]]. Hearthome City is the fifth largest city in the [[Pokémon world]]. Hearthome City is home to the [[Contest Hall|Super Contest Hall]], where one can take part in the {{pkmn|Super Contest}}, a [[Gym]], the [[Pokémon Fan Club]], and the [[Poffin House]], among other things. A hiker will give the player a {{p|Happiny}} {{pkmn|Egg}} here in {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}. Hearthome City started as a place where people and {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} gathered and grew into a center of commerce, and is consistently voted as the most desirable place to live in all of Sinnoh. It is also a gateway to nearby [[Solaceon Town]] and [[Pastoria City]].

Hearthome City is a child-friendly city; there are many families and young mothers living there, some of whom can be seen with prams. Most of the buildings use elevators instead of stairs so that small children and Pokémon can move through the houses. The citizens scrupulously keep their city clean.

In {{v2|Platinum}}, the road paving was given an update so it is now all beige. The tree's sprites were changed to match those in Platinum's [[Eterna Forest]]. In addition, the appearance of the entrances to [[Amity Square]] was modified so that the arch features a Psyduck, a Torchic and a Drifloon, and a Pikachu on its back.

==Slogan==
'''''Warm & Kind''''' (Japanese: '''{{j|こころがふれあうばしょ}}''' ''Where hearts touch each other.'')

==Places of interest==
===Super Contest Hall===
[[File:Super Contest Hall DPPt.png|thumb|280px|right|The Super Contest Hall]]
{{main|Contest Hall}}
The biggest attraction, garnering contestants from all throughout the region, is the Super Contest Hall. The Super Contest Hall is an expanded format of the [[Pokémon Contest]]s within [[Hoenn]]. In it, Pokémon are rated on their appearance and performance, rather than strength. They are different from the previous generation's competitions in that not only do they have more rounds, but rounds from the earlier games have been altered. The city's [[Gym Leader]], [[Fantina]], is a self-proclaimed master at Pokémon Super Contests.

In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, access to {{rt|209|Sinnoh}} is blocked until the player visits the Super Contest Hall.

===Amity Square===
{{main|Amity Square}}
[[File:Amity Square entrance Pt.png|thumb|200px|The entrance to Amity Square in Platinum]]
A notable attraction is Amity Square, where {{pkmn|Trainer}}s relax with their Pokémon. Eleven different types of cute Pokémon will follow the player about in Amity Square, and many Pokémon wander about the city outside of their [[Poké Ball]]s. Amity Square is located north of Hearthome City. The setup in Amity Square is identical to the {{p|Pikachu}} interaction system that was in {{game|Yellow}}. Only certain small Pokémon can be taken for walks in Amity Square, usually of a "cute" appearance. Pokémon will fetch [[Accessory|Accessories]] or [[Berry|Berries]] for their owners every 200 steps. In {{game|Platinum}}, more Pokémon are allowed in than before, and the area has been expanded and redesigned. It now includes a rather large pool of water.

===Pokémon Fan Club===
{{main|Pokémon Fan Club}}
The Sinnoh's Pokémon Fan Club is located in the eastern area of Hearthome City. The Fan Club is basically a place for people to meet and chat about their favorite Pokémon and to show off their collections to each other. In general, the members are usually more oriented to unevolved, cute Pokémon and [[Pokémon Contest]]s than [[Pokémon battle]]s. The Sinnoh Pokémon Fan Club Chairman says that his Fan Club is number one nationwide because he brags more than anyone. However, he doesn't do it anymore because of people's complaints. This may also explain why only two other members are found in his club. Inside the Pokémon Fan Club, the player will receive the [[Poffin Case]], needed to bake [[Poffin]]s. Another member of the club will rate the [[friendship]] of first Pokémon in the player's party.

===Poffin House===
{{main|Poffin House}}
The Poffin House is also here, where {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s can bake [[Poffin]]s to boost their Pokémon's [[Contest condition|condition]] for [[Pokémon Super Contest]]s, either alone or through DS Wireless Communications with people nearby. Up to four people may bake at a time. The Poffin House is located west of the [[Poké Mart]] where the {{player}} can make [[Poffin]]s, which are the replacement of [[Pokéblock]]s from {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}. The player has to speak to the lady a little to the left of the entrance, throw in his or her selected [[Berry]] and start stirring the liquid to begin creating their own Poffin. The Poffin's level depends on the amount of time consumed cooking the Poffin, the number of burns, and the number of spills.

===Bebe's House===
[[Bebe]], the system administrator for Sinnoh's [[Pokémon Storage System]] who will also give the player an {{p|Eevee}} living in the midst of Hearthome City. Her house, which is next to the [[Pokémon Center]] in Hearthome, is not quite as cluttered as Lanette's. Bebe is good friends with [[Hayley]], who owns a [[My Pokémon Ranch|ranch in which Pokémon can be stored]], and they still keep in contact with each other. After the player obtains the [[National Pokédex]], she will give them a [[level]] 5 {{p|Eevee}}. This Eevee came from a [[Bill|good mate in Johto]] before being passed onto the player. In {{game|Platinum}}, the Eevee is available right away at level 20, without the need of the National Pokédex.

===Mr. Goods===
{{main|Mr. Goods}}
[[Mr. Goods]] lives on the street of Hearthome, although he claims he can't remember who he is or his real name. He is a bemused man dedicated to rarities who gives out [[goods]] to decorate the [[Secret Base]] in the [[Sinnoh Underground]] with upon completion of certain tasks, such as using the [[Global Terminal|GTS]] or defeating all eight [[Gym]]s. Mr. Goods will also reward a Trainer for other miscellaneous achievements.

===Foreign Building===
[[File:Foreign Building DPPt.png|thumb|200px|right|The Foreign Building]]
The Foreign Building (Japanese: いぶんかのたてもの ''Foreign Culture Building'') is a building located in the western side of Hearthome City. It has six benches and stained glass windows. All the people there talk about the grace of life in the [[Pokémon world]], supernatural powers, and the balance of spirit and nature. It seems to be loosely based on a church or cathedral, and is the first building in all the Pokémon games to be so. Respectfully, no music can be heard in the building. In the morning, one can see a piece of the wall jutting out behind the stone tablets on either side of the inside.

===Pokémon Hotel===
In the middle of the city, next to the Pokémon Fan Club, is a hotel called the Pokémon Hotel. There are only two accessible floors within the hotel. These can be accessed to by a large, automatic elevator. Many visitors come from all parts of the world to enter the Super Contest, or visit Amity Square. Visitors can stay here for a while to enjoy the parts of Hearthome. The landlord inhibits the first floor, and on the second floor lives a woman and a {{p|Clefairy}}. She will give the player a [[Shell Bell]], saying that she was given it on vacation, but already had one.

===Hearthome Gym===
{{main|Hearthome Gym}}
The Hearthome Gym is the official [[Gym]] of Hearthome City. It is based on {{type|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. The [[Gym Leader]] is [[Fantina]]. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her receive the {{Badge|Relic}}. In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, the Hearthome Gym is the fifth Gym and Fantina cannot be challenged until after the player has received {{HM|03|Surf}} from [[Cynthia]]'s grandmother in [[Celestic Town]]. In {{game|Platinum}}, however, the Hearthome Gym is the third Gym and can be challenged immediately.

In Diamond and Pearl, the Gym consists of five stories, with a mathematical puzzle on each floor and three doors corresponding to a potential answer, with the correct door leading to the next floor and the wrong doors leading only to a battle with a Trainer. In Platinum, the inside of the Gym is shrouded in darkness and the player must navigate using a flashlight.

For defeating Fantina, Trainers receive the Relic Badge and {{TM|65|Shadow Claw}}. They also gain the ability to use {{m|Surf}} outside of battle in Diamond and Pearl, or {{m|Defog}} in Platinum.

==Demographics==
===Pokémon Diamond and Pearl===
[[File:Hearthome City DP.png|thumb|300px|right|Hearthome City in Diamond and Pearl]]
In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, the population of Hearthome City is 91 people. It is [[Sinnoh]]'s largest city and one of the largest cities in the [[Pokémon world]]. Given that it is the only town in the Pokémon world to feature babies, it probably has the lowest age distribution too.

===Pokémon Platinum===
In {{game|Platinum}}, the population of Hearthome City has decreased to 81 people. Despite the drop, it is still one of the largest cities in the [[Pokémon world]].

==In the anime==
[[File:Hearthome City anime.png|thumb|250px|right|Hearthome City in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} first arrived in Hearthome City in ''[[DP049|Dawn's Early Night!]]''. Ash was excited at the opportunity to win his third [[Sinnoh]] [[Gym]] [[Badge]] and went running through the city along with {{cat|Ash's Pokémon|his Pokémon}} to get to the [[Hearthome Gym]]. However, the [[Gym Leader]] was not present and they were greeted by [[Nando]] instead, who informed them about the [[Hearthome City Tag Battle Competition]]. This got Ash and {{an|Brock}} interested and they decided to enter the tournament together as a team. Later, {{an|Dawn}} and Nando headed to the [[Contest Hall]] to compete in the city's [[Pokémon Contest]]. On their way, they met up with [[Zoey]], another one of Dawn's [[rival]]s who was also entering the Hearthome Contest.

As Zoey explained to Dawn in ''[[DP041|A Stand-Up Sit-Down!]]'', the Hearthome City Pokémon Contest follows the [[Double Performance]] format, meaning that all {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s have to show off two {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} at once in the [[Appeal|Performance Stage]] in order to advance to the second round, which consists of [[Double Battle|two-on-two]] [[Contest Battle]]s. The event began later that day, with [[Jessie|Jessilina]] also participating. For the first round, Dawn called out her {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} and {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}}. Although their performance received positive reviews from all three [[Contest Judge|judges]], it was not enough to send Dawn to the Battle Stage. As a result, Dawn was eliminated from the competition while her rivals moved on to the second round. There, Nando was seen depleting all of Jessilina's points to advance to the finals, where he faced off against Zoey. He was able to defeat her with the help of his {{TP|Nando|Kricketune}} and {{TP|Nando|Roselia}}, thus earning the Hearthome Ribbon, his second {{pkmn|Contest}} [[Ribbon]] overall.

[[File:Hearthome Ribbon.png|thumb|left|220px|The Hearthome Ribbon]]
The city's [[Multi Battle|Tag Battle]] tournament began in ''[[DP050|Tag! We're It...!]]'', where it was revealed that the competing {{pkmn|Trainer}}s would be randomly paired up by a computer. For this reason, Ash, Dawn, and Brock got tagged with [[Paul]], [[Conway]], and [[Holly]], respectively. During the first round, they all managed to defeat their opponents and, in ''[[DP051|Glory Blaze!]]'', they proved successful once again by winning their battles in the second round. Before the semifinals, Paul {{pkmn2|released}} his {{TP|Paul|Chimchar}} due to its inability to activate {{a|Blaze}} during their last battle. Chimchar was then invited to join Ash's [[Party|team]]. In ''[[DP052|Smells Like Team Spirit!]]'', Dawn and Conway made it to the finals while Paul and Ash went up against Brock and Holly. [[Brock's Croagunk]] and Holly's {{p|Farfetch'd}} were no match for [[Paul's Torterra]] and they were easily defeated, bringing Ash and Paul to the finals. There, Ash and Paul sent out {{AP|Chimchar}} and {{TP|Paul|Elekid}} while Dawn and Conway called out {{TP|Dawn|Buizel}} and {{p|Heracross}}. During their battle, Paul's {{p|Elekid}} [[Evolution|evolved]] into {{p|Electabuzz}}, which helped Ash and Paul win the competition.

In ''[[DP086|Arriving in Style!]]'', the group returned to Hearthome City for Ash's [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}}, only to find out the Gym Leader was still out of town, developing a new battling style. While in the city, Ash and Dawn were invited by [[Paris]] to enter the [[Hearthome Collection]], a fashion show for {{pkmn|Stylist}}s and their Pokémon where the winner gets to work on a photo shoot for the {{DL|Magazines in the Pokémon world|Poké Chic}} magazine. Together with [[Cocoa]] and [[Jessie|Jessilina]], Ash and Dawn entered the event. In the end, Ash, Dawn, and Cocoa were chosen by Paris and [[Hermione]] as the three finalists. When the results were announced, it was revealed that Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} had placed third and would be given the Unique Award for their originality, while Cocoa and {{p|Mismagius}} would receive the Accessory Award as a prize for getting to second place. Dawn and {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}} were declared as the big winners, but Dawn said she wouldn't be taking part in the Poké Chic campaign in order to focus on her {{pkmn|Coordinator}} {{pkmn|training}}.

Ash met with [[Fantina]] upon returning to Hearthome City in ''[[DP101|Barry's Busting Out All Over!]]'', and finally had an official Gym battle against her in ''[[DP102|Shield with a Twist!]]''. He managed to defeat her and earn the {{Badge|Relic}}, his fifth [[Sinnoh League]] Badge overall.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{adv|Platinum}}, {{adv|Diamond}}, and {{adv|Pearl}} arrive in Hearthome City in ''[[PS350|Booying with Buneary]]'' and stumble upon [[Keira]]'s Buneary. They follow it to the Super Contest Hall, where they meet Keira. With the help of Sinnoh's [[Pokémon Fan Club Chairman]], the trio prepare for Platinum's upcoming Normal Rank [[Super Contest]], which Platinum wins. The next day, the trio meet [[Fantina]], the city's [[Gym Leader]], who helps them out of the city by air when [[Paka and Uji]] spot them.

The trio later return to Hearthome City together with Fantina from [[Celestic Town]], and Platinum later challenges her in a Gym battle. After winning the battle, Platinum learns that her father was captured, and Fantina lends her {{p|Drifblim}} so that the trio can get to [[Canalave City]] quickly.

The city is a fashion capital according to Platinum's Sinnoh travel guide.

==Trivia==
* In the English dub of the {{pkmn|anime}}, {{an|Enta}} is the mayor of Hearthome City.
* In Pokémon Platinum, Hearthome City seems to push the limits of what the DS can handle, and tends to lag when the player runs outside of a building.

'''Zeraora''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ゼラオラ''' ''Zeraora'') is an {{type|Electric}} [[Mythical Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation VII]] in [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]].

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

It is the last Pokémon in the [[List of Pokémon by Alola Pokédex number (Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon)|Alola Pokédex]].

Zeraora was officially revealed on April 9, 2018 on [[Oha Suta]].

==Biology==
Zeraora is a bipedal feline Pokémon that has black underfur and yellow fur on its head, forearms, chest, hips, and upper legs. Blue fur can also be seen on its forehead, chest, and whiskers. Its eyes and paw-pads are similarly blue. Black zigzagging stripes can be seen on its thighs and forearms. It has four-fingered paws, while its feet have three toes each. A long, yellow, thunderbolt-shaped ponytail-esque strand extends from the behind its shoulders, giving the appearance of an actual tail.

Zeraora can create a very powerful magnetic field through the strong electric currents generated from its paw-pads. This magnetic field can allow Zeraora to levitate and fly through the air at high speeds. It can travel as fast as a lightning strike. Unlike most {{type|Electric}} Pokémon, Zeraora does not have organs to create electricity; instead, it gathers and stores it from outside sources, then uses it as its own electric energy. Its fur is known to stand on its ends all across the body whenever it is using massive amounts of electricity.<ref>https://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/ultra/en-us/gallery-detail-19.html</ref>

Zeraora is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Plasma Fists}}.

==In the anime==

==Trivia==
* Zeraora is the only {{type|Electric}} [[Mythical Pokémon]].
* On April 26, 2018, [[The Pokémon Company]] released a special [[Battle Video]] for {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon#Version history|version 1.2]] (code QKUW-WWWW-WWWL-J5TL) allowing Zeraora to be legitimately seen and battled against in-game prior to its official release.

===Origin===
Zeraora's feline appearance may take inspiration from {{wp|tiger}}s and {{wp|serval}}s. Its {{t|Electric}} type may allude to Kanehekili, the Hawaiian god of thunder. The typing might also reference an {{wp|oni}}, a supernatural creature often associated with tiger pelts and lightning; or even a ''{{wp|raijū}}'', a creature that is the embodiment of lightning into an animal form, which is sometimes represented as a cat. Based on its swift movement and slicing up of its opponents, it may also draw inspiration from the {{wp|kamaitachi}}. Its {{Shiny}} coloration may be based on {{wp|white tiger}}s.

====Name origin====
Zeraora may be a combination of زر ''zarra'' (Arabic for ''to beam/glitter/shine'', ''to encroach upon one's enemy'') and 虎 ''tora'' (Japanese for ''tiger'') or ''tora'' (Faroese for ''thunder'').

Teelo: /* {{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}} */ Tested and confirmed

{{Incomplete|article|More Generation V and VII info}}
{{Bad image|article|Should be a Generation VII screenshot}}
[[File:Trade Pt.png|frame|Trading confirmation screen in {{v2|Platinum}}]]
A '''trade''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|交換|こうかん}}}}''' ''exchange''), also known as a '''Link Trade''' (Japanese: '''{{j|{{tt|通信交換|つうしんこうかん}}}}''' ''Link Exchange''), is a process in which a [[Pokémon Trainer]] sends one of his or her {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} to another Trainer in exchange for one of the other Trainer's Pokémon. In every Pokémon game, trading is necessary to collect all Pokémon.

Starting from [[Generation II]], [[item]]s can be held by Pokémon, allowing indirect trading of holdable items. However, in Generation IV, the [[Griseous Orb]] cannot be traded, as it will automatically be put back in the Bag when a player with Origin Forme Giratina in their party enters the Union Room or Wi-Fi Room. Certain items, when held by the correct Pokémon, will cause that Pokémon to evolve when traded to another player. [[Mail]] may also be held to send a message.

Until {{game|Black and White|s 2|Black 2 and White 2}}, all trading animations in the [[core series]] games used the standard {{ball|Poké}}, regardless of the types of Balls the traded Pokémon were actually caught in. This is corrected in Black 2 and White 2, in which trade animations show the correct Poké Ball the Pokémon was caught in.

==Benefits of trading==
[[File:SM Prerelease Trade.png|thumb|200px|Trading a {{p|Togedemaru}} for a {{p|Pikipek}} in {{pkmn|Sun and Moon}}]]
Trading is necessary in order to collect every Pokémon in the [[Pokédex]], as some Pokémon [[Game-exclusive Pokémon|can only be found]] in certain versions. For example, because {{p|Meowth}} cannot be found in {{game|Red and Blue|s|Red}}, the player must trade with someone who has obtained one from Blue, in which Meowth is readily found in the wild. {{cat|Pokémon that evolve through trading|Some Pokémon}} only [[Evolution|evolve]] after being traded.

Traded Pokémon gain 1.5× the normal [[experience]] after a [[Pokémon battle]]. Pokémon traded from a game in another language will gain 1.7× experience.

Trading may also be used to transfer limited and rare items in games from [[Generation II]] onward, such as [[Master Ball]]s or [[Soul Dew]]s, from one game to another by [[Held item|giving a Pokémon an item]].

In [[Generation VI]], Trainers receive [[Poké Mile]]s for every trade made with another player. In [[Generation VII]], Trainers may receive [[Pokémon Dollar#Other currencies|Festival Coin]]s instead.

==Drawbacks of trading==
A Pokémon with an [[original Trainer]] different from its current Trainer is referred to as an [[outsider Pokémon]], and will only obey a Trainer with the sufficient number of [[Badge|Gym Badges]] or [[Island challenge|Stamps]]. The [[friendship]] of a Pokémon is set to 70 when it is traded from one game to another, unless returned to its original Trainer. In addition, a traded Pokémon's nickname cannot be changed by anyone but the original Trainer, even if it hasn't been given a nickname.

Traded Pokémon are identified by the Pokémon's [[Original Trainer]] name and a five- or six-digit [[Trainer ID number|ID Number]]. Starting in [[Generation III]], even if two games have the same name and ID number, each Trainer also has a [[secret ID number]]. The odds of two Trainers having the same secret ID numbers is 1/65536 or approximately 0.002%, making it extremely unlikely that an outsider Pokémon will be treated as a regular Pokémon on a different cartridge.

==Limitations on trading==
Trade-induced [[evolution]] cannot be canceled unless the Pokémon holds an {{DL|Out-of-battle effect item|Everstone}}. In [[Generation IV]] onwards, however, the Everstone fails to prevent a traded {{p|Kadabra}} from evolving into {{p|Alakazam}}.

===Trading between game generations===
Pokémon can be traded between [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II]] games using the [[Time Capsule]] feature. For compatibility purposes, the Pokémon to be traded from the Generation II game must be {{cat|Generation I Pokémon|a species that existed in Generation I}} and cannot have any {{cat|Generation II moves|moves introduced in Generation II}}. The [[Time Capsule exploit]] can be used to trick the game into trading {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} back to [[Generation I]] as well, but they will become [[glitch Pokémon]] like [[MissingNo.]]. Additionally, the {{DL|List of glitches in Generation I|trade evolution learnset oversight}} can also be used to trade a Pokémon with a Generation II move back to a Generation I game, though it will become a [[glitch move]]. This is the only instance in the series in which Pokémon can be sent back to games from a previous generation.

It is not possible to trade between Generation II and [[Generation III]] games.

Using [[Pal Park]], players can transfer Pokémon from their Generation III games to [[Generation IV]] games; however, Pokémon cannot be returned from Generation IV to Generation III. Additionally, Pokémon sent through Pal Park cannot know any Generation III [[HM]] moves. Similarly, using the [[Poké Transfer Lab]], transfer is possible from Generation IV to [[Generation V]], although as well as the limitation on HM moves, the Pokémon must not be holding any items. It is also possible to use a method called the [[Relocator]] to transfer specific event Pokémon before reaching the Poké Transfer Lab, although the same restrictions apply.

Games from [[Generation VI]] onward are compatible with the [[Pokémon Bank]] online application that allows storing Pokémon in an online cloud. Its companion application [[Poké Transporter]] allows transferring Pokémon from Generation V, as well as [[Virtual Console]] releases of Generations I and II, to the same cloud. Pokémon transferred from Generation V can be retrieved in Generation VI and VII games, while Pokémon transferred from Generations I and II can only be retrieved in Generation VII games. Pokémon can be transferred from Generation VI to generation VII games via the Pokémon Bank itself, but once a Pokémon has been saved in a Generation VII game, it cannot be transferred back to a Generation VI game. Also, even within a generation, forms, moves and species introduces mid-generation cannot be transferred to games that predate them. In any case, HM moves or held items do not prevent Pokémon from being stored or transferred using the Pokémon Bank, but certain [[List of Pokémon with form differences|forms]], such as fused forms of {{p|Kyurem}}, do.

===International trading===
Trading between Japanese and non-Japanese games is not recommended in [[Generation I|Generations I]] and [[Generation II|II]], mostly due to the different memory locations within the RAM. While possible, these trades will result in the corruption of both save files, forcing both players to restart their games from the beginning<ref>http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/systems/gameboy/trouble_specificgame.jsp#erasing</ref>. To prevent this from happening in the [[Virtual Console]] releases of the Generation I and II games, Japanese and non-Japanese games do not detect each other. Trading between games released outside of Japan, such as between a Spanish {{game|Crystal}} and a French {{game|Yellow}}, does not result in any corruption, and as such is allowed in the [[Virtual Console]] releases.

These games do not track a Pokémon's language of origin, and Pokémon with foreign species names are treated as if they were nicknamed. Which means that in an English Generation I or II game, a foreign {{p|Pichu}} named "PICHU" will evolve into a {{p|Pikachu}} nicknamed "PIKACHU", but a foreign {{p|Charmander}} named "[[List of French Pokémon names|SALAMECHE]]" will retain the name "SALAMECHE" after evolving into a {{p|Charmeleon}} as if it were a nickname. If a traded Pokémon from Generation I or II is sent to the [[Pokémon Bank]] via the [[Poké Transporter]], its language of origin is determined based on the game from which the Pokémon is transferred, not the game from which it originally came from.

Trading became possible between all versions of the games in [[Generation III]], where the English language text was programmed in even the Japanese games. Due to the relatively low chance of English and other language games coming into contact with Japanese games, however, precautions were not taken in the Japanese games to preserve a Pokémon or Trainer's name when traded in, as their maximum lengths are different. While games released outside Japan will display a Pokémon's OT and nickname fully, Japanese games will only display the first five letters.

In [[Generation III]] (except in v1.0 of English {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}), if a Pokémon originates from a different language to the current game, when it evolves its name will not be changed, with the old name treated as a nickname; thus, if a {{p|Pichu}} named "PICHU" from an Italian game is evolved in an English game, when it evolves it will be a {{p|Pikachu}} nicknamed "PICHU". In v1.0 of English Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, like in generation I and II games, if a Pokémon's current name is the same as its species name, it will be treated as unnicknamed regardless of game of origin, so its species name will change upon evolution.

Starting in Generation IV, if a Pokémon that is not nicknamed evolves, its name will be changed to the name of its species after evolution in its current game's language (regardless of its language of origin). In these games, there is a separate flag to indicate whether a Pokémon is nicknamed.

International trading became full-fledged in Generation IV, and was a much touted feature, with the linkage of the games to the [[Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection]]. Pokémon from foreign-language games would unlock international Pokédex entries if traded to a game of a different language; at first, only 14 Pokémon could do this, however, from Platinum onward, all Pokémon can potentially allow for foreign entries. Some special event Pokémon (e.g. [[Spiky-eared Pichu]]) cannot be traded.

In Generation IV, Korean games cannot trade with non-Korean games due to only the Korean games including {{wp|Hangul}}. Starting in [[Generation V]], all games were made to be fully compatible with Korean games.

===Hardware requirements===
Trading requires two game consoles and two Pokémon games of compatible generations. Nintendo's intention is that players trade with friends, although some serious players purchase two consoles.

Prior to [[Generation IV]], trading required a [[Game Link Cable]] or a [[GBA Wireless Adapter]]. Although the Nintendo DS supports [[Generation III]] games, it cannot be used to trade between those games as the DS lacks hardware support for the Game Link Cable. Also, Transfer Packs can be used to trade in [[Generation I]] and in [[Generation II]], via {{Eng|Pokémon Stadium}} and {{g|Stadium 2}}.

The [[Pal Park]] feature of [[Generation IV]] games uses the GBA slot of the Nintendo DS, so unlike other trading requires only one game console. However, it is not compatible with the [[Nintendo DSi]], [[Nintendo DSi XL|DSi XL]], or [[Nintendo 3DS|3DS]], which do not have a GBA slot.

===Pokémon that cannot be traded===
As of Generation VI, Pokémon with certain {{DL|Ribbon|Gift Ribbons}} (such as the {{DL|List of Ribbons in the games|Classic Ribbon}}) cannot be traded over the GTS or through Wonder Trade. Starting in Generation VII, these Pokémon cannot be traded at all{{fact}}, but can still be transferred through [[Pokémon Bank]].

==Requirements for trading==
===Generation I===
The {{player}} cannot trade Pokémon before getting a [[Pokédex]] from [[Professor Oak]] at [[Pallet Town]].

===Generation II===
The player cannot trade Pokémon before transporting the [[Mystery Egg]] to [[Professor Elm]]. The [[Time Capsule]] cannot be used until the player has met [[Bill]] at [[Ecruteak City]]'s [[Pokémon Center]], and waiting until the next day when setup is completed.

===Generation III===
===={{2v2|Ruby|Sapphire}}====
The player cannot trade Pokémon before getting a [[Pokédex]] from [[Professor Birch]] at [[Littleroot Town]]. To trade, the player must have at least two Pokémon in the party. Trading with FireRed, LeafGreen, Colosseum, or XD will automatically activate the National Pokédex.

===={{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}====
The player cannot trade Pokémon before getting a [[Pokédex]] from Professor Oak at Pallet Town. The player must have at least two Pokémon in the party in order to trade.

In a departure from the main series' tradition, additional limitations on trades were put in place, which cannot be lifted before completing the game at least once:
* At the beginning of the game, trades are only possible with other copies of FireRed and LeafGreen. In addition, trades involving Eggs or Pokémon not in the Kanto Pokédex are blocked. Pokémon that [[evolution|evolve]] into a [[Generation II]] Pokémon by trading will stop evolving.
* Obtaining the National Pokédex unblocks trades for Pokémon and Eggs outside of the Regional Pokédex.
* Bringing the {{OBP|Ruby|item}} and {{OBP|Sapphire|item}} Key Items to complete [[Celio]]'s {{DL|Pokémon Network Center|Network Machine}} allows trades with Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald versions.

====[[Pokémon Emerald Version]]====
The player cannot trade Pokémon before getting a [[Pokédex]] from [[Professor Birch]] at [[Littleroot Town]]. To trade, the player must have at least two Pokémon in the party.

Restrictions similar to those in FireRed and LeafGreen also apply to this version:
* At the beginning of the game, trades are only possible with other copies of Emerald, as well as Ruby and Sapphire. In addition to that, trades that involve Eggs or Pokémon that aren't in the Hoenn Pokédex are blocked.
* Obtaining the National Pokédex unblocks trades for Pokémon outside of the Regional Pokédex, as well as Eggs, and allows trading with FireRed and LeafGreen.

====[[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]]====
The player cannot trade Pokémon with the GBA games in Colosseum until [[Evice]] has been defeated, while the player must have defeated [[Greevil]] in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness to trade. Trading any unpurified [[Shadow Pokémon]] is completely prohibited, as data for Shadow moves doesn't exist in the GBA games, nor the ability to purify them.

It is not possible to directly trade between Colosseum and XD.

===Generation IV===
[[File:Platinum trade ball.png|frame|A trade in Generation IV]]
===={{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}====
The player cannot trade Pokémon before getting a [[Pokédex]] from [[Professor Rowan]] at [[Sandgem Town]]. Also, the player has to have at least two Pokémon in the party. Migrating Pokémon from the Generation III games through [[Pal Park]] cannot be done until the [[National Pokédex]] has been obtained. It is possible to obtain a non-regional Pokémon when trading Pokémon from another Generation IV game ''without'' having acquired the National Pokédex. In Platinum, the player is now able to press B to select the "CANCEL" button.

====[[My Pokémon Ranch]]====
Hayley will only offer to trade with the player after they have completed a wanted request, and will only trade specific Pokémon and only if she has already brought one of them to the Ranch.

===={{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}====
Similar to Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, trading cannot occur until the player has obtained his or her Pokédex from [[Professor Oak]] at [[Mr. Pokémon|Mr. Pokémon's house]]. The player must have at least two Pokémon in the party; but no additional prerequisite is needed to trade with the Sinnoh games: this can be done at the very beginning of the game. Migrating Pokémon from Generation III games through Pal Park is also possible later in the game if the player has a Nintendo DS or DS Lite.

===Generation V===
===={{2v2|Black|White}}====
The player cannot trade Pokémon until they have obtained the {{badge|Trio}} from the [[Striaton Gym]] and completed the [[C-Gear]] sub-quest for [[Fennel]]. This prevents the player from trading for a Pokémon that knows {{m|Cut}} in order to access the blocked-off section of [[Dreamyard]] early, as [[HM]] usage is not restricted by [[Badge]] ownership in Unova.

The player is also prevented from trading party Pokémon that know any [[HM]] move via Infrared Connection, most likely to prevent trading away a Pokémon whose HM move is needed in a certain area. An example of this would be trading away any Pokémon in the party who know Fly or Surf while on a patch of land surrounded by water.

The [[Poké Transfer]] feature allows Pokémon to be migrated from any Generation IV game. Pokémon can be migrated up to six at a time using a catapult minigame sent to another DS using Download Play. This minigame can transfer Pokémon from an inserted Generation IV Pokémon cartridge. Migrating with the Poké Transfer is one-way, requires both games to be from the same language, and cannot migrate Eggs or Pokémon holding items. There is no daily limit to use of the Poké Transfer.

The [[Relocator]] allows the transfer of {{p|Celebi}} and the Shiny [[Legendary beasts]] from a Generation IV game. It is available earlier in the game than the Poké Transfer, which requires the player to have acquired the [[National Pokédex]] and defeated the [[Elite Four]].

===={{2v2|Black|White|2}}====
Similar to Black and White, the player cannot trade Pokémon until they have received the {{badge|Basic}} from the [[Aspertia Gym]] and have received the C-Gear from [[Bianca]]. There is no prerequisite to trade with Black and White. The Poké Transfer is also available after obtaining the [[National Pokédex]], allowing Pokémon from Generation IV to be transferred to Black 2 and White 2.

===Generation VI===
===={{pkmn|X and Y}}====
The player may trade Pokémon as soon as they have at least two Pokémon in their party, which is the minimum requirement for conducting a trade.

===={{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}====
The player must wait until they have obtained the {{DL|PokéNav Plus|PlayNav}} from [[Wally]] after helping him catch a Pokémon. The player must have two Pokémon in their party to trade.

===Generation VII===
The player must wait to trade Pokémon until they gain the Quick Link option in their [[menu]] upon their first visit to a [[Pokémon Center]], which will allow them to trade with someone nearby. In order to trade over the Internet (GTS, Wonder Trade, or Link Trade), the player must use [[Festival Plaza]], which is unlocked at the same time. The player may require at least two Pokémon in their party.

==Trading process==
===Generations I-IV===
The actual trading interface remained largely the same throughout the series's first four generations: Each player selects one Pokémon from their party to offer for trade; once decided, they can review the [[stats]] (and, when applicable, [[Ability]] or [[item]]) of the other Pokémon before confirming or cancelling the trade. The player may perform multiple trades in a row.

It is not possible to trade Pokémon stored in the [[PC]] in these generations, so they must be placed in the party prior to speaking with the receptionist at a Pokémon Center.

Generation IV's [[Global Trade System]] utilizes a separate trading process, in which a player deposits one Pokémon at a time (requesting another Pokémon in exchange) and other players may search and trade for it at their leisure. Once traded, the original player will receive the Pokémon upon logging in to the GTS. If the Pokémon is not traded, the original player can cancel the offer by withdrawing their Pokémon from the GTS.

===Generation V===
The trading process received an overhaul in Generation V: now called a '''Negotiation Trade''' (Japanese: '''{{j|ネゴシエーション{{tt|交換|こうかん}}}}''' ''Negotiation Exchange''), it allows players to offer and trade Pokémon from either their current party or directly from their PC's storage system.

During the trade, each player may select up to three Pokémon to offer the other player. Once decided, they may review the offered Pokémon (checking stats, Ability, etc.) and confirm one to be traded. Players may trade several Pokémon in a row if desired.

Players registered on each other's [[Pal Pad]] can communicate with live voice chat during the trade. A set of four emoticons (Smile Mark, Saddened Mark, Heart Mark, Surprise Mark) also allows for limited communication between players. In addition to showing the Pokémon on offer, the top screen also includes an abstract glimpse of the other player's Pokémon collection in the form of PC boxes with individual Pokémon represented by their [[List of Pokémon by color|Pokédex color]].

The GTS, in addition to the deposit/search-based system introduced in Generation IV, receives a second trading mode ("GTS Negotiations") allowing two players to connect and trade Pokémon using this system.

===Generation VI===
Trading functions (including the GTS) are no longer a service of Pokémon Centers, but are instead accessible at any time through the [[Player Search System]] on the 3DS's lower screen.

The trading process has been streamlined since Generation V, with each player showing only one Pokémon at a time (instead of three) before being prompted to make an offer. Chat emoticons have been removed, but voice chat is still available when the player trades with someone on their 3DS's Friends List.

The GTS has also been updated, now allowing the player to enter the species name of any Pokémon using a "What Pokémon?" option in the Pokémon selection list. This allows players to trade for Pokémon that they have not seen in the game.

A third trading method, called [[Wonder Trade]], is introduced this generation: When performing a Wonder Trade, the player selects one Pokémon from their collection and it is immediately traded with another player using Wonder Trade, with no further confirmation or any communication between players; what Pokémon the player receives in exchange for theirs is a complete surprise.

===Generation VII===
The PSS has been replaced and split between the [[Quick Link]] and [[Festival Plaza]] options in the [[menu]]. Quick Link allows for players to locally trade Pokémon, while the Festival Plaza allows for trading through the internet. The GTS and Wonder Trade are usable while in the Festival Plaza.

The GTS is similar to its Generation VI counterpart, though filtering has been adjusted and searching for a Pokémon by letter will now show that Pokémon's icon next to its name.

==In other games==
===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series===
In the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]], items can be traded through a link cable{{sup/md|R}}/wireless communication from the [[main menu]].

===Pokémon GO===
[[FIle:Trade GO.png|thumb|150px|Trading in Pokémon GO]]
In [[Pokémon GO]], players are able to trade with registered [[Friends (GO)|friends]]. Both Trainers must be at [[Trainer level|level]] 10 or higher and have the required amount of {{OBP|Stardust|GO}} to trade. [[Mythical Pokémon]], Pokémon marked as the player's favourites, [[Buddy Pokémon]], [[Fainting|fainted]] Pokémon, or Pokémon defending a Gym cannot be traded. Pokémon that have previously been traded once before also cannot be traded. Trades can only be initiated if both traders are within a close enough distance of each other.

Some trades are considered special. Special trades require more Stardust and only one special trade can be made per day. The following are considered special trades:
* Pokémon not already in your [[Pokédex]]
* [[Legendary Pokémon]]
* [[Shiny Pokémon]]
* Pokémon with forms not already in your Pokédex (such as Unown or costumed Pikachu)

[[File:Lucky Pokémon GO.png|thumb|150px|Lucky Chansey]]
With the trade, players also receive [[Candy]] of the Pokémon that was traded away. The greater the distance between the locations in which the two Pokémon were obtained, the greater the Candy yield, with a maximum of three Candies.

The CP and IVs of the traded Pokémon are also randomly regenerated during the trade. The traded Pokémon is more likely to have higher IVs if the Friendship Level between the two players is high. If trading to a player with a lower Trainer Level, the CP of the traded Pokémon will decrease to accommodate the maximum CP range possible for their Trainer Level.

Traded Pokémon have the potential to become Lucky Pokémon. The longer the player has had the Pokémon, the greater the chance that the Pokémon will become Lucky. Lucky Pokémon are more likely to have higher IVs and require half the amount of Stardust to level up. A Lucky Pokémon is indicated by a shimmery effect in the Pokédex and the Pokémon Profile. Since September 5, 2018, as long as the player and friend each have less than 10 Lucky Pokémon, trading a Pokémon that has been in storage since July-August 2016 is guaranteed to become Lucky. The minimum IVs of a Lucky Pokémon was also increased during the September update.

==In the anime==
[[File:Trade machine BW.png|thumb|250px|A trade machine in the anime]]
Despite it being one of the key aspects of the games, trading is exceptionally rare in the {{pkmn|anime}}. Only a few trades have been shown taking place, and only six of them thus far have been truly significant, often taking place in episodes featuring the [[Magikarp salesman]]. Fans have often speculated about the reason for this. Rather than simply exchanging Pokémon, most trades are carried out by placing [[Poké Ball]]s into a specialized [[Trade machine|trading machine]], with a monitor that displays silhouettes of the two Pokémon as they pass each other.
* In ''[[EP015|Battle Aboard the St. Anne]]'', {{Ash}} traded his {{AP|Butterfree}} for a {{tc|Gentleman}}'s {{AP|Raticate}}. He wasn't happy with the trade, however, so he traded it back by the end of the episode.
* In ''[[EP146|Tricks of the Trade]]'', [[Jessie]] unintentionally traded her {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}} for {{OBP|Benny|EP146}}'s {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}.
* In ''[[EP261|Here's Lookin' at You, Elekid]]'', [[James]] is forced by Jessie to trade his {{TP|James|Victreebel}} for the [[Magikarp salesman]]'s {{p|Weepinbell}}.
* In ''[[DP055|Throwing the Track Switch]]'', {{Ash}} traded his {{AP|Aipom}} for {{an|Dawn}}'s {{AP|Buizel}}.
* In ''[[BW063|Evolution Exchange Excitement!]]'', {{an|Bianca}} and [[Professor Juniper]] trade their {{p|Shelmet}} and {{p|Karrablast}} so that they could evolve.
* In ''[[XY082|A Festival Trade! A Festival Farewell?]]'', Jessie traded her {{p|Pumpkaboo}} for [[Count Pumpka]]'s {{p|Mawile}} so her Pumpkaboo could be with Count Pumpka's Prince Pumpkaboo, but when Jessie's Pumpkaboo evolved into {{TP|Jessie|Gourgeist}}, the Prince promptly lost all interest. As a result, the trade was reversed.

The trade machine used in the anime has seemingly been adapted into the game canon, with [[Professor Oak]]'s laboratory in both {{Eng|Pokémon Stadium}} and {{g|Stadium 2}} having this type of machine for trades. In the same way, when Game Link Cables were finally able to accept the data of two Pokémon being sent at once (rather than one at a time as in [[Generation]]s {{Gen|I}} and {{Gen|II}}), the Pokémon are shown passing each other in the link space.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Like the anime, the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga does not contain many trades despite being a major part of the games. Most are not shown to need a machine to complete them. Simply hand-exchanging Pokémon can count as a trade, though it is also possible to trade by placing [[Pokédex]]es opposite each other.

* In ''[[PS018|A Tale of Ninetales]]'', {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Blue}} accidentally traded some of their Pokémon, resulting in Blue's {{p|Machoke}} evolving into {{TP|Blue|Machamp}}.
* In ''[[PS025|You Know... Articuno!]]'', Red traded his {{p|Krabby}} for [[Misty]]'s [[Gyara]]dos.
* In ''[[PS109|Ampharos Amore]]'', {{adv|Silver}} told {{adv|Gold}} to use his Pokédex to trade his [[Polibo|Poliwhirl]] for Silver's {{p|Seadra}} in order to evolve them. They traded back in ''[[PS110|Piloswine Whine]]''.
* In ''[[PS449|Raising the Stakes with Rhyperior]]'', it was revealed that Blue had traded his {{p|Rhydon}} to Silver, allowing it to evolve into {{TP|Blue|Rhyperior}} and fill up the empty slot in Silver's team after his {{TP|Silver|Ursaring}} had disappeared along with {{adv|Giovanni|his father}}. In the {{chap|X & Y}}, Rhyperior was revealed to have returned to Blue's ownership.

==In the TCG==
The following is a list of cards relating to '''trades'''.

==Trivia==
* {{p|Porygon}} is the only Pokémon to evolve twice via trading. Both evolutions require a held item, namely the [[Up-Grade]] and [[Dubious Disc]].
** In addition, {{p|Porygon2}} is the only Pokémon to have evolved from trading that can evolve further.
* The {{p|Clamperl}} family is the only branched evolution in which both evolutions are achieved by trading.

List of glitches in Generation III

2018-09-17T18:48:07Z

Teelo: Undo revision 2849698 by PiotrGrochowski (talk)

{{Incomplete|article|How do battle-specific bugs work in Link Battles considering different language versions where the bugs are fixed? What about different games altogether (e.g.: RS-exclusive glitch in a Link Battle with FRLG)?}}
This is a '''list of glitches''' that occur in the [[Generation III]] [[core series]] and [[Spin-off Pokémon games|spin-off]] [[Pokémon games]].

==Ruby and Sapphire==
===256× item selling price bug===
When selling at least 256 of an [[item]], even though the [[Poké Mart]] states the correct price, for every 256, because the number sold only takes the lower byte, the total price is actually counted as {{PDollar}}0, and the player loses {{PDollar}}2560 for every multiple of 256 (just like tossing them). For example, selling 999 Berries gives {{PDollar}}2310 (0 for 768, +2310 for 231). This is normally only possible with [[Berry|Berries]] because they are the only items that the player can hold more than 99 of, although through cheating the bug can be performed with other items as well.

{{YouTubeEmbed|IqU30uovmkg|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Berries}}

===Acro Bike instability===
In the Japanese versions of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, if the player continuously performs bunny hops by holding the '''B''' button on [[tall grass]] for a long yet undetermined period of time, the [[Game freeze|game may freeze]] after a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{pkmn|battle}}. If the freeze occurs in [[Mt. Pyre]]'s summit, the clouds that are part of the map's [[weather]] remain animated.

{{YouTubeEmbed|QVM12bkRXdE|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Ruby|Sapphire}}

Other than freezes, the game may experience tile or graphics corruption as well as other random behavior.

{{YouTubeEmbed|gsRM3kp8DSs|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Ruby|Sapphire}}

===Berry glitch===
{{main|Berry glitch}}

This bug is exclusive to the earlier copies of the games as it was fixed in Japanese and European versions 1.1 and in English versions 1.2.

===Dewford Gym statue error===
The wall behind the statue to the right at the entrance of [[Dewford Gym]] behaves like a statue when approached and the '''A''' button is pressed ("DEWFORD POKéMON GYM, BRAWLY'S CERTIFIED TRAINERS:"). After [[Brawly]] is defeated, it will list the player as a certified {{pkmn|Trainer}}.

{{YouTubeEmbed|UkJ6kukiTWE|channel/UCgA3xOk7QY4MOYhc7EBFe0g|name=Wooggle Smith|Fighting}}

===HP bar oversight===
During a {{pkmn|battle}}, if the player's {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} deals over 33 037 [[damage]], the opposing Pokémon will [[Fainting|faint]] without its {{stat|HP}} bar being drained. If the damage dealt is exactly 33 037, the HP bar falls to 0 instantly without any delay.

{{YouTubeEmbed|c7CmRMN-OjA|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|HP}}

===Landsurfing bug===
In the Japanese versions of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, by using the [[Acro Bike]] to side-hop north or south onto a tile adjacent to a [[water tile]] and then pressing A at the exact right frame, the player can bring up the {{m|Surf}} dialogue box while facing a regular tile on land. Answering yes will cause the player to Surf onto that tile. The player can then Surf around on land. The game will still behave as if the player is walking normally otherwise.

{{YouTubeEmbed|LMk0Z8i0JY0|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Water}}

This bug can also be used to enter the [[Fortree Gym]] without the [[Devon Scope]] (the [[Gym]] is normally blocked off from the north by an invisible {{p|Kecleon}}), if it is performed on {{rt|119|Hoenn}} and the player surfs north to [[Fortree City]]. While surfing in Fortree City, the player can jump off their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} from the bridge south of Fortree Gym and access the Gym from there. In order to escape, a Pokémon with {{m|Teleport}} or {{m|Fly}} may be brought; however, the player must beat the Gym in order to use Fly. Presumably, the player can [[black out]] to escape from the Gym or the area surrounding it as well.

{{YouTubeEmbed|IadUK-a-5nE|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Water}}

===Nightmare damage bug===
If {{m|Nightmare}} is used on a {{status|sleep}}ing {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} which is then awakened by {{a|Shed Skin}}, then the opposing Pokémon will still be harmed by Nightmare even though it is not asleep.

{{YouTubeEmbed|yGusp-7hBa0|channel/UCmxPcJjW-ChC_fASAJ1Agsg|name=Nai|Ghost}}

===Pay Day money error===
The wrong amount of [[Pokémon Dollar]]s received from {{m|Pay Day}} will be displayed if the [[Amulet Coin]] is held by a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, leaving the impression that it does not affect Pay Day. Yet, upon checking the {{ga|Trainer Card}}, the player will discover that the amount was doubled accordingly.

{{YouTubeEmbed|CxieyRroBQE|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Normal}}

===Roaming Pokémon encounter bug===
Encountering and defeating {{p|Latios}} or {{p|Latias}} after losing a Trainer battle (without any other wild encounters in between) will cause the game to keep the data of the opponent's [[Party|Pokémon List]] slots 2-6.<ref name="GCLF">[http://forums.glitchcity.info/index.php/topic,7016.msg199101.html#msg199101 Battle Tower Lati@s glitch]</ref> If these slots contain data that does not match a [[Bad Egg]] or a [[Fainting|fainted]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, it will be sent out after defeating Lati@s, as if it were a Trainer battle. The Trainer's name is shown as "[[Pokémon Trainer|{{PK}}{{MN}} TRAINER]]" (ポケモントレーナー) and their Pokémon can be caught and [[nickname]]d.

The game considers this as a {{pkmn2|wild}} battle in [[roaming Pokémon]] mode.<ref name="GCLF"/> As such, the Pokémon is able to flee if it's not trapped by {{m|Mean Look}} or {{m|Spider Web}}. The roaming Pokémon is considered defeated or {{pkmn2|caught}} after catching the Trainer's Pokémon or defeating them in battle. If the Pokémon flees or the player loses/decides to run away, the roaming Pokémon will not be recognized as defeated or caught and will keep roaming [[Hoenn]] even if it only has 0 {{stat|HP}} left; under such circumstances, the bug will automatically load the Trainer's Pokémon and skip the roaming Pokémon.<ref name="GCLF"/> Since the game behaves as if it were a [[wild Pokémon]] battle, it will not present the Trainer's sprite and/or their "victory" speech. [[Pokédex]] entry data is also added if the Pokémon is caught.<ref name="GCLF"/>

[[Experience]] is gained from defeating the Trainer's Pokémon. If experience gains occur after defeating Lati@s, the game will keep playing [[Pokémon Ruby & Pokémon Sapphire: Super Music Collection|''Victory! (Wild Pokémon)'']] while the Trainer sends out their Pokémon. The original {{IV}}s of the Trainer's Pokémon are retained so the [[:#Roaming Pokémon IV bug|Roaming Pokémon IV bug]] does not apply.<ref name="GCLF"/>

The Trainer's Pokémon caught by the player may also become [[Bad Egg]]s, unless the Pokémon was obtained from a Trainer found in the {{Gdis|Battle Tower|III}}. This is because the Pokémon of other Trainers do not have a [[Trainer ID number]] and {{DL|Trainer ID number|Secret ID}} that match those of the player.<ref name="GCLF"/>

{{YouTubeEmbed|FjqMC_p024A|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Psychic}}

===Sand Ornament collapse bug===
In the Japanese versions of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, if the player places a {{DL|Ornament|Breakable ornaments|Sand Ornament}} against the wall in a {{DL|Secret Base|Generation III|Secret Base}} and collapses it (with the '''A''' button), adds a one-tile or three-tile poster behind the ornament, then exits and returns to the Secret Base, the ornament will not appear to have crumbled and it will still have the poster behind it. Collapsing the Sand Ornament again will trigger a hole on its top area.

In international versions of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire as well as all versions of {{game|Emerald}}, posters cannot be placed on a wall directly behind a Sand Ornament even if collapsed.

{{YouTubeEmbed|FZ5M3za8eRU|channel/UC4y-4WvWxx2AowgudsYAlZQ|name=G- Mizuka|Ground}}

===Sootopolis rock wall oversight===
In [[Sootopolis City]], to the left of the staircase leading to the house of the old lady who talks about [[Mt. Pyre]] is a rock wall that the player can walk in. The player can only go one step in, however.

{{YouTubeEmbed|8s9qoVKNjEw|channel/UCgA3xOk7QY4MOYhc7EBFe0g|name=Wooggle Smith|Rock}}

===Stuck audio freeze===
In some copies of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, using {{m|Thunder}} or {{m|Thunderbolt}} may cause the [[Game freeze|game to freeze]] during the animation sequences of the [[move]]s. This can be remedied by turning off the [[battle effects]] in the [[options]].

===Trainer approach oversights===
{{GlitchResearch|Check all languages.}}
There are three [[Non-player character|NPCs]] who may move on top of an obstacle. This does not occur in the Spanish versions as none of these {{pkmn|Trainer}}s move.

If the player stands in {{rt|118|Hoenn}}'s {{tc|Aroma Lady}} Rose, {{rt|121|Hoenn}}'s {{tc|Gentleman}} Walter, or [[Abandoned Ship]]'s {{tc|Tuber}} Charlie's line of sight while directly behind the [[ledge]], fence, or wall, the Trainer will notice the player and walk over these obstacles and {{pkmn|battle}}.

===Trick Mail bug===
In the Japanese versions of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, the [[move]] {{m|Trick}} can be used to switch {{DL|Mail|Generation III|Mail}} with the [[held item]] of the opposing {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. This results in an [[item]] that has the Mail icon but acts like the item retrieved by Trick. If this bug is repeated six times, Mail can be given to the Pokémon without having to attach a message, and the player can just indefinitely withdraw the item from the Pokémon by giving it Mail then withdrawing it again. This can also corrupt tiles and their collision parameters based on the phrase of the buggy Mail when given to another Pokémon in the [[Party|Pokémon List]].

===Yellow Scarf bug===
In Japanese Ruby/Sapphire, a Pokémon with at least 200 points in the {{OBP|Smart|condition}}ness [[Contest condition|condition]] will be able to receive both the [[Green Scarf]] and [[Yellow Scarf]] (normally for having at least 200 points in {{OBP|Tough|condition}}ness) even if the Pokémon's Tough condition isn't high enough. For a Pokémon with only 200 points in Smartness, speaking to the [[Slateport City]] [[Pokémon Fan Club Chairman]] once would give out the Green Scarf and speaking to him again would give out the Yellow Scarf.

==Emerald==
===Aqua Hideout Dive glitch===
In the Japanese version of {{game|Emerald}}, in the submarine room of [[Team Aqua Hideout|Aqua Hideout]] there are [[water tile]]s that look like deep water on which the player can use {{m|Dive}}. While the player normally cannot use Dive on these tiles, they can if they [[save]] the game and resets while in this room. If they do use Dive, they will be warped to [[Petalburg City]], walking out the door of the house next to the lake.

In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, the player cannot access the Aqua or [[Magma Hideout]] after they gain the {{badge|Mind}} (which is required to use Dive outside of battle). In international versions of Emerald, the player cannot use Dive here even after saving and resetting.

===Battle Tower cloning glitch===
{{main|Cloning glitches#Generation III}}

===Hidden Power disobedience glitch===
{{GlitchResearch|Does the move use the power and damage category of Hidden Power or the used move? Can Pokémon be immune to Stun Spore due to type effectiveness?}}
If the player commands a Pokémon to use {{m|Hidden Power}}, but it instead uses a different move due to [[obedience|disobedience]], the used move will be the [[type]] of the Pokémon's chosen move.

This glitch affects the type effectiveness of {{m|Thunder Wave}} and {{m|Glare}}. For example, if Thunder Wave becomes a {{type|Fighting}} move, {{type|Ground}} Pokémon can be affected by it but {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon cannot.

{{YouTubeEmbed|AkezrtJDvTg|ChickasaurusGL|Normal}}

===Mirage Tower collision error===
In [[Mirage Tower]], there is no rock on the second floor near the ladder but the player cannot walk there.

{{YouTubeEmbed|KRAzeJman2g|channel/UCgA3xOk7QY4MOYhc7EBFe0g|name=Wooggle Smith|Ground}}

===Mover Vigoroth cry oversight===
In the Japanese version of {{game|Emerald}}, although the mover {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} at the player's house in [[Littleroot Town]] during their early {{pkmn|journey}} were changed from {{p|Machoke}} to {{p|Vigoroth}} by altering the sprites and text, the [[cry]] of Machoke was kept.

===Pomeg glitch===
{{main|Pomeg glitch}}

===Sootopolis Gym wall oversight===
In [[Sootopolis Gym]], the player can walk one step into the wall to the right-down of the stairs, causing them to stop working until he/she steps back onto the floor.

{{YouTubeEmbed|jtVnvwFGGWA|channel/UCG11xx7bQcbXB4ThsgsYs7w|name=EricchiYukia|Ice}}

===Trainer's School window tile quirks===
[[File:Pokémon Emerald black curtains.png|thumb|Black curtains in the Pokémon Trainer's School]]
When a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} is present in slots 4-6 of Box 8 (or Box 7's slots 26-28 in Japanese Emerald) of the [[Pokémon Storage System]], black pixels with a certain form are written on the sides of the windows of [[Rustboro City]]'s [[Pokémon Trainers' School|Pokémon Trainer's School]], based on the particular Pokémon.

Slot 4 controls a small portion of tiles near the top of the window, while slot 5 controls a large portion of tiles around the middle, with slot 6 controlling a small portion of tiles near the bottom.

When Pokémon fill all the affected the slots, curtain-like graphics typically appear, but one can manipulate this bug (i.e. by having slot 4 and slot 6 occupied but not slot 5) to make the pixels not resemble curtains as much.

Specifically, with memory-address location randomization disabled, the tiles depend on the data from addresses $0202DAE4-$0202DB43. Each byte can control 1-2 pairs of pixels for the left and east-most sides.

The bug occurs because data for tiles with IDs greater than 790 is overwritten with Pokémon data and the pixels on the window depend on the data of tiles 791-793.<ref>[http://forums.glitchcity.info/index.php/topic,6428.msg198621.html#msg198621 Black Curtains of Rustboro (Emerald)].</ref>

===Dive glitch===
{{main|Dive glitch}}

===Poké Mart clerk oversight===
The [[Poké Mart]] clerk at [[Oldale Town]] normally gives the player a [[Potion]], but if the player has a full [[Bag]] when this happens, the Potion won't be handed out. If the player enters {{rt|103|Hoenn}} and then immediately returns to Oldale Town, the worker will be near the Poké Mart but will behave as if he was at the original position. Talking to the worker again will lead the player into a tree; however, the player can get out, because they are only one tile into the trees.

{{YouTubeEmbed|CGaaHg-2V2E|channel/UCLczqDEH90snBw3bF-Ql4DQ|name=Metarkrai M|Grass}}

===Route 134 current interruption error===
On {{rt|134|Hoenn}}, if the player surfs on the {{DL|Water tile|Currents|current}} near {{tc|Swimmer}} Laurel or Swimmer Jack and is spotted by them, when the battle is over, the player will remain stationary, despite being in the middle of the current.

===Route 134 current tile error===
In the bottom-right corner of the island to the southeast of {{rt|134|Hoenn}}, there is a {{DL|Water tile|Currents|current}} that does not behave as a [[water tile]]. The player cannot {{m|Surf}} on it but can walk on it. Walking on it will simply push the player back onto the island to the left.

{{YouTubeEmbed|OyVh7WNd2iE|channel/UCgA3xOk7QY4MOYhc7EBFe0g|name=Wooggle Smith|Water}}

===Wally defeating Ralts oversight===
In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald, it is possible for the capture tutorial where Wally catches a {{p|Ralts}} to end with Ralts [[fainting]]. This can only happen if {{p|Zigzagoon}} is generated with 11 Attack, and the wild Ralts has a [[Nature]] that lowers Defense, an [[Individual values|IV]] of 3 or less in HP, and 5 or less in Defense. With all this, Zigzagoon can do a maximum of 10 damage with its first {{m|Tackle}}, and after {{m|Growl}} is used on it, 7 with its second. This makes for a total of 17 damage, just enough to knock out Ralts. However, the game continues on as if it had been caught. The probability of this occurring is (182/800)*(4/25)*(4/32)*(6/32)*(5/16)*(7/16), about 1 in 8574 or about 0.01%.

{{YouTubeEmbed|xERTYBk3Txk|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Emerald}}

==FireRed and LeafGreen==
===Nugget Bridge script oversight===
If the player loses to the {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}} at the end of {{rt|24|Kanto|Nugget Bridge}}, the player has a chance to battle him again, unlike in the [[Generation I]] games. Each time he is rebattled, he will give the player a [[Nugget]], so one can purposely lose to obtain Nuggets repeatedly. This is caused by an unset flag before the battle begins, making the script endlessly repeat itself.

This bug only works in the Japanese and English versions as it was fixed in the European localizations.

{{YouTubeEmbed|nPMvNJWmeGA|channel/UCgA3xOk7QY4MOYhc7EBFe0g|name=Wooggle Smith|Gold}}

===Opening sequence oversight===
In English versions 1.0, the word "PRESENTS" is not shown in the [[Game Freak]] logo part of the opening sequence despite the graphics data being present in the ROM. This was fixed in English versions 1.1.

===Pokédex category oversight===
In the English version 1.0 release, if a [[Pokémon category]] has two words, the [[Pokédex]] will mistakenly only display the first word. For example, while {{p|Beedrill}}'s category is "Poison Bee Pokémon", it is listed in-game as "Poison Pokémon". Internal data lists categories as in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, so the game likely reads the space in the category name as a terminator. This was corrected in version 1.1 of the English versions, which is the one distributed in the {{wp|Nintendo Selects|Player's Choice}} release.

===Poké Flute music oversight===
While the [[Poké Flute]] melody is playing, if the [[Help System]] screen is opened and closed, the music will be muted until the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} wakes up.

{{YouTubeEmbed|QZatzouUnXc|GlitchyGarchomp|status}}

===Roaming Roar bug===
If a [[roaming Pokémon]] uses {{m|Roar}} to flee from {{pkmn|battle}}, it will no longer appear in the wild. This means that the player will not be able to catch it in that save file.

{{YouTubeEmbed|Bfv2g5batno|GlitchyGarchomp|normal}}

==Ruby, Sapphire, FireRed, and LeafGreen==
===Roaming Pokémon IV bug===
In the [[Generation III]] games, the data for a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}'s {{IV}}s are stored in a {{DL|Individual values|Generation III|32-bit integer}}. However, when a [[roaming Pokémon]] is {{pkmn2|caught}}, only the last 8 bits are transferred. While the {{stat|HP}} IV is unaffected, the Pokémon can only have a maximum {{stat|Attack}} IV of 7. The other IVs will always be 0.

Due to this, their {{m|Hidden Power}} type will always be Fighting with a power of 30 or 31.

==In all core series games==
===Evolution move-learning script bug===
If the player presses both '''A''' and '''B''' buttons during the same frame on the "Delete a move to make room for {move}?" message screen after their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} [[Evolution|evolves]], the "Stop learning {move}?" message screen is loaded as a full black screen, making it invisible. The game behaves normally otherwise but the graphics are only properly reloaded after the player presses the '''A''' button.

In the Western localizations of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, the red focus rectangle can be seen on the black screen. This does not occur in the Japanese versions or in any release of {{game2|FireRed|LeafGreen|Emerald}} since a black focus arrow is used instead.

This behavior is not seen in non-evolution scenarios because the games use other procedures for the move-learning sequence.<ref>[http://forums.glitchcity.info/index.php/topic,7335.msg198896.html#msg198896 Emerald Teach move Glitch]</ref>

{{YouTubeEmbed|jIooN4DX3TU|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Hoenn}}

===Focus Punch recall bug===
By selecting {{m|Focus Punch}} in a [[Double Battle]] on the first {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, pressing the '''B''' button, then [[recall]]ing the first Pokémon, the first Pokémon will tighten its focus in preparation for Focus Punch, then be recalled. This is due to the priority of Focus Punch getting prepared being higher than the priority for the recall.

{{YouTubeEmbed|SepV3AIF4VQ|channel/UCgA3xOk7QY4MOYhc7EBFe0g|name=Wooggle Smith|Fighting}}

===Sticky Hold graphics bug===
When {{m|Thief}} or {{m|Covet}} are used to knock out a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} holding an [[item]] that also has the {{a|Sticky Hold}} Ability, the sprite of the defeated Pokémon becomes stuck and gets translucent until another screen is loaded. Switching to the [[Bag]] screen or the [[Party|Pokémon List]] will cause it to disappear.

On a {{pkmn|battle}} against a full [[party]], defeating the next Pokémon will cause that Pokémon's sprite to vanish normally, but the stuck sprite will remain. If the second Pokémon is defeated without leaving the battle screen, a third Pokémon will come out, but the second Pokémon's sprite will be flushed out normally. The stuck sprite of the first Pokémon will remain and get recolored to match. This is because the game stores color palettes separately to the sprites themselves.

{{YouTubeEmbed|CR-MZ8QOBps|channel/UCmxPcJjW-ChC_fASAJ1Agsg|name=Nai|Dark}}

===Status condition delayed cure glitch===
If a Pokémon with a [[status condition]] that has an [[Ability]] that cures that status condition (e.g. a {{status|paralysis|paralyzed}} Pokémon with {{a|Limber}}) is sent into battle as one of the lead Pokémon or to replace a fainted Pokémon, or gains that Ability due to {{a|Trace}}, it will not be cured of its status condition until after a Pokémon takes its turn (uses a move, switches out, etc.). However, it will be immediately cured of the status condition if it is switched in to replace a switched out Pokémon.

Likewise, if a Pokémon with {{a|Trace}} is {{status|confusion|confused}} due to obtaining it from {{m|Baton Pass}}, if it gains {{a|Own Tempo}} via Trace it will not be cured of confusion until after a Pokémon takes its turn (uses a move, switches out, etc.).

===Stuck audio bug===
If {{m|Thunder}} or {{m|Thunderbolt}} are used during {{pkmn|battle}} with the [[Battle effects|effects]] enabled, the sound of the [[move]]s may get stuck until the game is rebooted. This is related to the [[#Stuck audio freeze|stuck audio freeze]] glitch.

===Vital Throw details error===
[[File:Vital Throw wrong display.png|thumb|The error in the accuracy parameter]]
The details on the description for the [[move]] {{m|Vital Throw}} show it as having 100% {{stat|accuracy}}, despite the move hitting the opposing {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} regardless of accuracy and {{stat|evasion}}.
{{-}}

=={{pkmn|Colosseum}}==
===Perish Song experience bugs===
====Involving status ailments====
{{GlitchResearch|Do volatile status ailments like confusion, Leech Seed, and Curse cause this too?}}
When the last opposing {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} is defeated by a {{status|burn}} or {{status|poison}} while the player's Pokémon are under the effect of {{m|Perish Song}}, the player's Pokémon will gain [[experience]] immediately after the Pokémon [[Fainting|faints]], then once again each time one of the player's Pokémon's perish count drops. This allows Pokémon to gain the experience for defeating the Pokémon up to three times.

{{YouTubeEmbed|41_bnx_Zs_Q|channel/UCggEnHVdFtDCboTsgese_NQ|name=Luigi Haunter|Colosseum}}

====Involving weather====
{{GlitchResearch|Does Hail trigger this too? Is the Exp. Share required? Does the opposing Pokémon need to be immune to weather damage? What happens if both of the Player's Pokémon would hit zero?}}

If the last opposing {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} is defeated with Perish Count while {{m|Sandstorm}} is active, the opposing Pokémon that fainted was immune to Sandstorm, and at least one if the player's Pokémon is about to also reach zero, then the battle will continue on with the player's Pokémon also fainting. Those Pokémon that were out with that Pokémon and any Pokémon holding an [[Exp. Share]] will gain experience as if it was an opposing Pokémon before the battle concludes.

===Poké Ball amount bug===
By selecting a [[Poké Ball]] during the turn of the player's first {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, changing the location of the selected Poké Ball with another Poké Ball type in the Bag with the '''Y''' button on the second Pokémon's turn, then throwing the Poké Ball, the Poké Ball pocket will still display the same amount of Poké Balls, as if the Poké Ball just thrown had not been used.

Sometimes, using a [[Master Ball]] will [[Game freeze|freeze the game]] and bring the "An error occurred" message the [[Nintendo GameCube]] gives when it fails to properly read a game.

Additionally, if the second Pokémon is using a multiple-turn [[move]] that was selected on a previous turn, the attack prevents the bug from working, which causes the thrown [[Snag Ball]] to be used.

This glitch was fixed in the sequel; [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]].

{{YouTubeEmbed|PK4lMxx6YAc|channel/UCzozMcF1kcR9dzsdEkRHdaw|name=Jake Auralight °w° (Gligar13Vids)|Colosseum}}

===Shiny Shadow Pokémon bug===
Like in the [[core series]] games, in {{g|Colosseum}} there is a 1/8192 chance of a [[Shadow Pokémon]] being {{Shiny}}, but it will most likely lose its Shiny status when captured by the player; conversely, there is a 1/8192 chance that a Shadow Pokémon may spontaneously become Shiny when captured by the player.

This bug occurs because when the player captures a Shadow Pokémon, their [[Trainer ID number]] overwrites the [[original Trainer]]'s ID number, unlike with [[trade]]d Pokémon; because the Trainer ID number is a factor in Shiny calculation, this may cause the Pokémon to acquire (or lose) their Shiny status. This is similar to the oddity of a hatched {{pkmn|Egg}} changing from normal to Shiny (or vice-versa) if it was traded to another player before hatching.

In {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}}, the game calculates a [[personality value]] for a Shadow Pokémon, checks it against the player's and opponent's ID numbers, and if either one would result in a Shiny Pokémon, it generates a new personality value for that Pokémon (repeating if necessary). As a direct result, Shadow Pokémon in {{XD}} can never be Shiny (though other Pokémon, such as those appearing in [[Poké Spot]]s or [[Battle CD]]s, can be).

{{YouTubeEmbed|zqUo_u-MhwA|channel/UCrWfNs3bu-p_n4FqLPM7WSw|name=SargeantMario101|XD}}

===Snag recall bug===
{{GlitchResearch|Is it fixed in XD?}}
[[File:Snagging glitch.png|thumb|The bug in effect]]
If the player snags a [[Shadow Pokémon]] on the same turn that the {{wp|Artificial intelligence (video games)|AI}} opponent [[recall]]s its other Pokémon (e.g.: to avoid {{m|Yawn}}'s effect), and the opponent only has two non-Shadow Pokémon left, they will not send out a Pokémon in the place of the snagged one.
{{clear}}

===Snagem Hideout office bug===
{{GlitchResearch|Exists in XD}}
In {{g|Colosseum}}, the corner of the wall directly in front of the stairs in Gonzap's office within [[Snagem Hideout]] is buggy. While walking upwards into this corner of the wall, the player will hit the corner, continue to walk, and cause the screen to start to shake. This can be used to automatically purify all [[Shadow Pokémon]] in the player's [[party]] or the {{pkmn|Day Care}} while the {{wp|GameCube controller}}'s Control Stick is held in the same direction.

=={{pkmn|XD}}==
===Shadow Voltorb Catch Bug===
{{GlitchResearch|Any known workarounds or fixes?}}
If the player fails to capture the Shadow Voltorb when defeating Miror B at the Cave Pokespot, none of the Miror B rematches will ever provide another opportunity to capture the Shadow Voltorb again. This means the player will only ever be able to capture 81 of the 83 total Shadow Pokemon in the game, and will not be able to capture the Voltorb or Dragonite without completely restarting the game.

=={{pkmn|Colosseum}} and {{XD}}==
===Agate Village cliff bug===
{{GlitchResearch|XD variant details}}
In {{g|Colosseum}}, the cliffs in [[Agate Village]] directly to the left and right of the hill at the entrance are buggy. While walking downwards on these small cliffs, there are two specific points where the player will hit the edge, continue to walk, and cause the screen to start to shake. This can be used to automatically purify all [[Shadow Pokémon]] in the player's [[party]] or the {{pkmn|Day Care}} while the {{wp|GameCube controller}}'s Control Stick is held in the same direction.

This bug can also be done in {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}} under different conditions.

'''Celadon City''' (Japanese: '''タマムシシティ''' ''Tamamushi City'') is located in central [[Kanto]]. It is the most populous city in Kanto and the eighth most populous in the [[Pokémon world]], surpassing even [[Saffron City]] in the east. The city has two entrances, one from the east via {{rt|7|Kanto}}, and one from the west via {{rt|16|Kanto}}.

Celadon is the main place to spend money in Kanto, through the [[Celadon Department Store]] and the [[Celadon Game Corner]]. It is the home of the [[Celadon Condominiums]], where residents of the city live, and the Celadon Hotel, where visitors can rest. Celadon is also home to [[Erika]], the city's [[Gym Leader]], and [[Eusine]], the hunter that pursues {{p|Suicune}}.

==Slogan==
===Generations I-III===
'''''The City of Rainbow Dreams''''' (Japanese: '''タマムシ　にじいろ　ゆめの　いろ''' ''Tamamushi, the color of rainbow dreams.'')

===Generation IV===
'''''City of the Rainbow's Colors''''' (Japanese: '''にじいろの　おおきな　まち''' ''The large rainbow-colored town'')

==Places of interest==
===Celadon Department Store===
{{main|Celadon Department Store}}
Celadon's department store is the largest building in the city, as well as the largest shop in [[Kanto]]. It is located in the northwest corner of the city. The store has two sliding door entrances, and is six stories high, including a roof level. In front of it lies a decorative fountain. Here, a receptionist welcomes customers and directs them to a board that describes the store layout. The second floor contains Top-Grade [[item]]s for Trainers. On the third floor, a man will give away {{TM|18|Counter}} in [[Generation I]], while in [[Generation III]], he becomes a [[Move Tutor]] who will teach the move to a capable Pokémon. The fourth floor contains gifts people can buy for others. On the fifth floor there is a pharmacy selling [[Vitamin]]s as well as [[Battle item]]s. And finally, on the Rooftop Square, there are some [[vending machine]]s and a picnic table. A thirsty Trainer will give [[TM]]s in exchange for one of the drinks. In Generation I, the Trainer trades {{TM|13|Ice Beam}} for Fresh Water, {{TM|48|Rock Slide}} for Soda Pop, and {{TM|49|Tri Attack}} for Lemonade. In Generation III, the Trainer trades {{TM|16|Light Screen}} for Fresh Water, {{TM|20|Safeguard}} for Soda Pop, and {{TM|33|Reflect}} for Lemonade.

===Celadon Condominiums===
{{main|Celadon Condominiums}}
Next to the city's [[Pokémon Center]] is the Celadon Condominiums (known as '''Celadon Mansion''' prior to [[Generation IV]]), where staff members of [[Game Freak]] rent a room from an old lady. It is here that players of both the [[Generation I]] games and their {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Generation III remakes|s}} can find an {{p|Eevee}}. This is the home of the [[Game Freak]] development studio, where the lead developer will give the player a [[diploma]] that signifies that they have completed the [[National Pokédex]]. In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} it has been largely renovated, with a brand new elevator system. In floor 3, the member of [[Game Freak]] standing in front of the globe gives the player a [[GB Sounds]].

Celadon Condominiums play a more vital role in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. The player must enter the building, where, on the first floor, he/she will encounter an old woman who will give the player [[Tea]], which he/she must use to enter Saffron City. Also, if the player is pursuing the [[Fame Checker]] sidequest, the second floor proves useful as well, providing information about [[Erika]]. Going into the Condominiums from the back not only leads the player to Eevee, but to the Know-It-All as well; this [[non-player character|NPC]] provides the player with standard information concerning [[status condition|status changes]] if the player reads the blackboard.

In [[Generation II]], instead of finding an {{p|Eevee}}, a man will give {{TM|03|Curse}} away to people. In [[Generation IV]], he gives away the [[Spell Tag]].

===Celadon Game Corner===
{{main|Celadon Game Corner}}
[[File:Celadon Game Corner Inside FRLG.png|240px|thumb|Celadon Game Corner]]
The southern part of the city caters to travelers and tourists. In addition to a hotel and a restaurant, the Game Corner is a popular spot. The citizens take pride in the city's beauty and think the casino is bad for their image. The Celadon Game Corner is one of the six Game Corners in the Pokémon world, and for a time, is run by [[Team Rocket]]. The woman at the service desk sells 50 coins for {{PDollar}}1000, and 500 coins for {{PDollar}}10,000. The option to buy 500 coins is only available in the Generation III remakes.

The only game available is [[Slot machine|slots]], which people in the game say are rigged. There are thirty slot machines in the Game Corner, with eight of them having people already seated at them, one that is labeled "out of order," one labeled "reserved," and one where someone left their keys. Slot machines in the first generation and their [[Generation III|third generation]] remakes consist simply of inserting coins and stopping the reels with the A button.

In the [[Generation]] {{gen|I}} and {{gen|III}} games, the player must go into the underbelly of the Game Corner and defeat Team Rocket. By pushing a button underneath a poster, the player gains access to the [[Rocket Hideout]]. A {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}} is guarding the poster in question when the player first approaches it. After being defeated, the Grunt retreats into the base, leaving the poster un-guarded, and enabling the player to approach. Once the player activates a switch behind the poster, the stairs to the hideout will appear.

In [[Generation II]], it is no longer run by Team Rocket. The hideout is not accessible, but people have not forgotten about the terrible events that occurred. In Generation II, a Card Flip game is added, which allows players to place bets on which card a player will flip over. The deck has 24, each one with a number between 1 and 6 and a picture of one of four Pokémon ({{p|Pikachu}}, {{p|Jigglypuff}}, {{p|Oddish}}, or {{p|Poliwag}}). Bets can be placed by single card, by single column, by single row, by a pair of columns, or by a pair of rows.

In [[Generation IV]], the Game Corner was again no longer run by Team Rocket, but the only game inside the building is the Voltorb Card Flip Game.

Located right next to the Game Corner is the Rocket Prize Corner, where people can exchange coins for prizes. These prizes include [[TM]]s and other rare items. The Celadon Game Corner also trades very rare Pokémon such as {{p|Dratini}} and {{p|Porygon}} in exchange for coins. In Generation IV, there is a man in this building who will tell the player the type of their Pokémon's {{m|Hidden Power}}.

===Rocket Hideout===
{{main|Rocket Hideout}}
The Rocket Hideout is an underground complex four floors deep beneath the Rocket Game Corner. It is a secret base built used by [[Team Rocket]] to facilitate and administer their operations. The Rocket Hideout is accessed by pressing a switch behind a poster in the [[Celadon Game Corner|Game Corner]] in Celadon City. A {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}} is guarding the poster in question when the player first approaches it. After being defeated, the Grunt retreats into the base, leaving the poster un-guarded, and enabling the player to approach. Once the player activates a switch behind the poster, the stairs to the hideout will appear.

In the [[Generation]] {{gen|I}} and {{gen|III}} games, the player must go into the underbelly of the Game Corner and defeat Team Rocket. The player's initial objective is to search for and obtain the [[Lift Key]] in order to activate the lift leading to [[Giovanni]]. Once battled, Giovanni will flee, leaving the [[Silph Scope]] behind.

There are spinner tiles scattered around the place. This tile, when stepped upon, will whisk the player in the direction of the arrows depicted on it. The player will continue to travel in that direction until they hit a wall, land on another spinner (which may send them in a different direction) or land on a Stopper, a tile only used for that purpose.

===Celadon Hotel===
[[File:Capsule Monsters Hotel.jpg|thumb|250px|left|[[Ken Sugimori]]'s [[Capsule Monsters|concept art]] for a hotel that bears resemblance to a [[Pokémon Center]], much like the Celadon Hotel.]]
A luxurious hotel building can be found located in the southeastern part of the city. However, the player is not able to rent a room due to all the rooms being booked. A couple is staying here at the moment, who are here on vacation and brought their little brother, who is a bit annoyed about it. In {{2v2|Red|Blue}} (but not {{game|Yellow}}), there is an {{DL|List of glitches in Generation I|invisible PC access|invisible PC}} in the hotel, perhaps explainable by the close resemblance between the hotel's layout and a Pokémon Center. This is less a glitch and more likely an oversight by the programmers, who may have copied and pasted a Pokémon Center's layout into the location and forgotten to remove the code to activate the PC at that particular point, though the PC itself is no longer there and the player can walk through the tile it would be located on. This bug was later removed in the {{game|Yellow}} release.

===Move Tutor===
The man who can only be accessed by Surf gives out {{TM|41|Softboiled}} in [[Generation I]]. In [[Generation III]], he instead offers to directly teach this move to certain Pokémon.

===Celadon Gym===
{{main|Celadon Gym}}
[[File:Celadon Gym FRLG.png|thumb|Celadon Gym in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}]]
The Celadon Gym is the official [[Gym]] of Celadon City. It is based on {{type|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. The [[Gym Leader]] is [[Erika]]. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat her receive the {{Badge|Rainbow}}.

The Celadon Gym is a garden full of Trainers. It is impossible to reach Erika without fighting at least two other Trainers and using {{m|Cut}}. In all versions and adaptations of Pokémon, Celadon Gym is consistently rendered as a greenhouse.

In the anime, Celadon Gym appeared in ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-Sation!]]''. Attached to the Celadon Gym is a perfume shop, run by Erika herself. {{Ash}} wanted to challenge Erika to a Gym {{pkmn|battle}}, but the workers at the Gym refused to allow his entry because he had earlier criticized a {{wp|perfume}} shop, saying that all they do is turn men into zombies. They kicked him out of the shop for insulting them and when Ash found out that the Gym is where the perfume was manufactured, he was visibly shocked.

==Demographics==
===Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow===
The population of Celadon City is 81 (70, excluding the {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}} guarding the [[Rocket Hideout]] and everyone inside the Hideout).

===Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal===
The population of Celadon City is 63.

===Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen===
The population of Celadon City is 82 (72, excluding the [[Team Rocket]] members in the Rocket Hideout), making it the largest city in [[Kanto]], beating even its skyscraper-clustered neighbor [[Saffron City]]. Celadon City's large population is partly due to the [[Celadon Department Store|Department store]] and the Team Rocket Hideout.

===Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver===
In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the population of Celadon City is 68.

==Differences between generations==
Between [[Generation I]] and {{gen|III}}, there have being some little and unnoticeable changes to Celadon City. Mostly, there are only aesthetic changes between building designs. A fountain has been added to the western side of the city. The small pond in the center of the city now has small hints of pollution, with {{p|Grimer}} and {{p|Koffing}} appearing on rare occasions, as an allusion to [[Generation II|the previous generation]].

In [[Generation II]], Celadon City has changed quite a bit. Some buildings have been removed and some have been added. There is a café located on the eastern side of town, and the Department Store has been moved the far western side of town. Over the course of two years, the small pond has grown very polluted; only {{p|Grimer}} and {{p|Muk}} can be found there. Like Generation III, [[Generation IV]] has the added fountain to the western side of the city. The central pond has been extended southward with a bridge going across it.

==In the spin-off games==
===In Pokémon Pinball===
In {{g|Pinball}}, Celadon City appears on the Blue table. Catchable {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} include {{p|Vulpix}}, {{p|Meowth}}, {{p|Mankey}}, {{p|Scyther}}, {{p|Pinsir}}, {{p|Eevee}}, {{p|Porygon}} and {{p|Dratini}}.

==In the anime==
[[File:Celadon Skyline.png|thumb|left|220px|Celadon City in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
[[File:Celadon City Hall.png|thumb|220px|Celadon City Hall]]
===In the main series===
{{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} arrived in Celadon City in ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]'' so that Ash could challenge the Gym Leader, Erika. She initially refused to battle him due to the fact that he offended her by insulting her perfume, so Ash sneaked into the [[Celadon Gym]] disguised as a girl and answering to the name "[[Ashley]]". When Team Rocket's interference caused a fire to start inside the Gym, Erika's {{p|Gloom}} was trapped inside. Ash saved the Pokémon despite its stench, and Erika awarded him the {{badge|Rainbow}} for his courage.

Ash and his friends briefly revisited Celadon City in ''[[EP029|The Punchy Pokémon]]'' after they just left it. Although it is not mentioned in the episode, according to official art for the [[P1 Grand Prix]] from the Game Freak website, the P1 Grand Prix takes place in the Celadon City Hall.

In ''[[EP136|Chikorita's Big Upset]]'', it was mentioned that Celadon City has a [[Celadon University|university]], where the episode's [[Nurse Joy]] studied Pokémon psychology. In [[EP163|a later episode]], it was revealed that {{an|Professor Oak}} used to teach there, and [[Foster]] was one of his top students.

===In Pokémon Origins===
{{OBP|Red|Origins}} was briefly seen visiting Celadon City in ''[[PO03|File 3: Giovanni]]''. After defeating Erika and earning the Rainbow Badge, he followed a "suspicious-looking guy" to a place that turned out to be [[Rocket Hideout|Team Rocket's secret hideout]]. There, he released several Pokémon imprisoned by Team Rocket and had his first encounter with the leader of the organization, [[Giovanni]].

===In Pokémon Generations===
[[Celadon Game Corner]] appeared in ''[[PG02|The Chase]]''.

==In the manga==
[[File:Celadon City Adventures.png|thumb|200px|Celadon City in Pokémon Adventures]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Celadon City first appeared from ''[[PS015|Wartortle Wars]]'' to ''[[PS020|Meanwhile...Vileplume!]]''. After being fooled into buying a lot of expensive [[item]]s, all of which later turned out to be fake, from {{adv|Green}}, {{adv|Red}} encountered her again trying to sell her items to the people of Celadon. Upon noticing Red, she tried to get away with her [[Blasty|Wartortle]], but was stopped by Red and his [[Snor]]lax. When Red later went to spend night at the Celadon Hotel, he was enraged to find out that Green had secretly stolen his {{badge|Boulder|Boulder}} and {{badge|Cascade}}s.

After having an encounter with [[Team Rocket]] and {{adv|Mew}}, and supposedly recovering his Badges, Red encountered [[Erika]], the Celadon City Gym Leader. She offered to accept Red's challenge for a battle if he caught her an {{p|Eevee}}. With the help of {{adv|Bill}}, Red soon found an [[Vee|Eevee]], but it turned out to be a modified Eevee, capable of changing into [[Eeveelution|it evolutions]] and [[Devolution|back]]. After catching the Eevee, Red learned from Erika that the Eevee had been tested by Team Rocket, and she had wanted to test Red if he'd be a good ally in a fight against the evil organization.

In the {{chap|Yellow}}, {{adv|Yellow}} ended up in Celadon City after having escaped from [[Lorelei]], and was greeted by Erika and several of her students. {{tc|Super Nerd}} Miles, sent to capture [[Pika]] by [[Agatha]], then appeared, disguised as Red. He knocked Erika out, overwhelmed Yellow, and tried to escape with Pika, but was stopped by the four "Gym Leaders of Justice". Agatha's {{p|Gastly}} then tried to kill Miles, but was stopped by {{adv|Blue}}. Afterwards, Blue and Yellow left to train together at {{rt|9|Kanto}}.

Later in the chapter, Celadon City was attacked by an army of {{p|Shellder}} and {{p|Cloyster}}, sent by Lorelei. While protecting her Gym, Erika found out that the [[Elite Four]] were after her Badge. After Yellow defeated [[Lance]] at [[Cerise Island]], the Pokémon army lost its strength.

Like in the anime, Celadon City has a [[Celadon University|university]], at which Erika teaches in addition to her duties as Gym Leader.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
[[File:Celadon City PM.png|thumb|200px|Celadon City in Pokémon Pocket Monsters]]
[[File:Celadon City Zensho.png|thumb|200px|left|Celadon City in Pokémon Zensho]]
Celadon City appeared in ''[[PM009|Pikachu Was Kidnapped!!]]'', where {{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}} and his Pokémon ventured to the Game Corner, winning a lot of [[Coin]]s. Team Rocket tried to steal {{OBP|Red's Pikachu|Pocket Monsters}}, but were stopped by {{TP|Red|Clefairy}}.

===In the Pokémon Zensho manga===
Celadon City appeared in ''[[PZ05|Celadon City]]'', where {{zensho|Satoshi}} visited the city. Originally, he merely followed a pair of {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s from [[Lavender Town]] in order to get a [[Silph Scope]], but after snatching one from the [[Rocket Hideout]], he noticed the Gym and decided to challenge it as well. During the Gym battle with Erika, {{zensho|Satoshi's Charmeleon}} accidentally set Erika's kimono on fire, but saved her by {{m|slash}}ing off the burning part. Seeing how well Satoshi had raised his Pokémon, Erika gave him a {{badge|Rainbow}}.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* Many [[Gym Leader]]s have appeared at one point or another within Celadon City. [[Erika]], as its own Gym Leader, resides there, while [[Jasmine]], [[Falkner]], [[Janine]], [[Maylene]], and [[Crasher Wake]] stop by at times during {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. [[Giovanni]] also appears here during [[Generation I]] and {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|its remakes|s}}, as the Rocket Boss in [[Rocket Hideout|the hideout]] under the [[Celadon Game Corner|Game Corner]], while {{ga|Blue}} is known to have visited the city to challenge Erika in Generation I and its remakes. {{an|Brock}} and {{an|Misty}} also have visited the city, along with {{Ash}}, in the anime episode ''[[EP026|Pokémon Scent-sation!]]''.
* In the [[Generation I]] games, the two {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s that can be seen in the city remain even after [[Team Rocket]] is thwarted by the player at [[Silph Co.]] This was changed in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}.
** However, a pair of grunts in the house near the restaurant remain even after the player has defeated the Elite Four.
* Celadon City is one of two cities that is more populous than the largest city in its region, the other being [[Nimbasa City]]. They are more populous than [[Saffron City]] and [[Castelia City]], respectively. This also happens in Sinnoh, but only in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} where [[Hearthome City]] is more populous than [[Jubilife City]].
** Coincidentally, Nimbasa City and Celadon City are both home to the fourth Gyms of their regions.
* In the [[Pokémon Pocket Monsters]] manga, Celadon City's design is heavily based on the historic {{wp|Fremont Street}} in {{wp|Las Vegas}}.

== Wes ==
Why is the party template about shady guy Wes?
[[User:Woopsy|Woopsy]] 15:59, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

== Re-battle ==
Could someone test the idea that you only get one chance at fighting him? I really think I remember defeating him without Snagging Togetic, leaving the Outskirt Stand, and coming back - only to find him back in his disguise waiting for another battle. I even vaguely remember him having different text the second time on. --[[User:The Great Butler|The Great Butler]] 04:29, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
* It's been three years, but what the heck, I'll answer anyway. You get multiple chances, but he has the same text. [[User:Bwburke94|Bwburke94]] ([[User talk:Bwburke94|talk]]) 07:25, 24 March 2013 (UTC)
:: It's been nearly three more years, but I've finally replayed Colosseum in full. He '''does''' have a different text string when spoken to for rematches, his loss phrase and what he says after the battle in the overworld are the same as the first time. I'll add this text soon. --[[User:The Great Butler|The Great Butler]] ([[User talk:The Great Butler|talk]]) 03:54, 27 November 2015 (UTC)
::: And three years later still - I battled him, snagged his Togetic, but whited out. Everyone still hates me in-game, and he isn't there to rematch anymore. Sigh. [[User:Teelo|Teelo]] ([[User talk:Teelo|talk]]) 09:30, 9 August 2018 (UTC)

List of glitches in Generation III

2018-07-28T09:19:33Z

Teelo: New section: XD glitches - Shadow Voltorb bug

{{Incomplete|article|How do battle-specific bugs work in Link Battles considering different language versions where the bugs are fixed? What about different games altogether (e.g.: RS-exclusive glitch in a Link Battle with FRLG)?}}
This is a '''list of glitches''' that occur in the [[Generation III]] [[core series]] and [[Spin-off Pokémon games|spin-off]] [[Pokémon games]].

==Ruby and Sapphire==
===256× item selling price bug===
When selling at least 256 of an [[item]], even though the [[Poké Mart]] states the correct price, for every 256 the total price is actually counted as {{PDollar}}0 and the player loses {{PDollar}}2560 for every multiple of 256. For example, selling 999 Berries gives {{PDollar}}2310 (0 for 768, +2310 for 231). This is normally only possible with [[Berry|Berries]] because they are the only items that the player can hold more than 99 of, although through cheating the bug can be performed with other items as well.

{{YouTubeEmbed|IqU30uovmkg|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Berries}}

===Acro Bike instability===
In the Japanese versions of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, if the player continuously performs bunny hops by holding the '''B''' button on [[tall grass]] for a long yet undetermined period of time, the [[Game freeze|game may freeze]] after a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{pkmn|battle}}. If the freeze occurs in [[Mt. Pyre]]'s summit, the clouds that are part of the map's [[weather]] remain animated.

{{YouTubeEmbed|QVM12bkRXdE|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Ruby|Sapphire}}

Other than freezes, the game may experience tile or graphics corruption as well as other random behavior.

{{YouTubeEmbed|gsRM3kp8DSs|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Ruby|Sapphire}}

===Berry glitch===
{{main|Berry glitch}}

This bug is exclusive to the earlier copies of the games as it was fixed in Japanese and European versions 1.1 and in English versions 1.2.

===Dewford Gym statue error===
The wall behind the statue to the right at the entrance of [[Dewford Gym]] behaves like a statue when approached and the '''A''' button is pressed ("DEWFORD POKéMON GYM, BRAWLY'S CERTIFIED TRAINERS:"). After [[Brawly]] is defeated, it will list the player as a certified {{pkmn|Trainer}}.

{{YouTubeEmbed|UkJ6kukiTWE|channel/UCgA3xOk7QY4MOYhc7EBFe0g|name=Wooggle Smith|Fighting}}

===HP bar oversight===
During a {{pkmn|battle}}, if the player's {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} deals over 33 037 [[damage]], the opposing Pokémon will [[Fainting|faint]] without its {{stat|HP}} bar being drained. If the damage dealt is exactly 33 037, the HP bar falls to 0 instantly without any delay.

{{YouTubeEmbed|c7CmRMN-OjA|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|HP}}

===Landsurfing bug===
In the Japanese versions of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, by using the [[Acro Bike]] to side-hop north or south onto a tile adjacent to a [[water tile]] and then pressing A at the exact right frame, the player can bring up the {{m|Surf}} dialogue box while facing a regular tile on land. Answering yes will cause the player to Surf onto that tile. The player can then Surf around on land. The game will still behave as if the player is walking normally otherwise.

{{YouTubeEmbed|LMk0Z8i0JY0|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Water}}

This bug can also be used to enter the [[Fortree Gym]] without the [[Devon Scope]] (the [[Gym]] is normally blocked off from the north by an invisible {{p|Kecleon}}), if it is performed on {{rt|119|Hoenn}} and the player surfs north to [[Fortree City]]. While surfing in Fortree City, the player can jump off their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} from the bridge south of Fortree Gym and access the Gym from there. In order to escape, a Pokémon with {{m|Teleport}} or {{m|Fly}} may be brought; however, the player must beat the Gym in order to use Fly. Presumably, the player can [[black out]] to escape from the Gym or the area surrounding it as well.

{{YouTubeEmbed|IadUK-a-5nE|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Water}}

===Nightmare damage bug===
If {{m|Nightmare}} is used on a {{status|sleep}}ing {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} which is then awakened by {{a|Shed Skin}}, then the opposing Pokémon will still be harmed by Nightmare even though it is not asleep.

{{YouTubeEmbed|yGusp-7hBa0|channel/UCmxPcJjW-ChC_fASAJ1Agsg|name=Nai|Ghost}}

===Pay Day money error===
The wrong amount of [[Pokémon Dollar]]s received from {{m|Pay Day}} will be displayed if the [[Amulet Coin]] is held by a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, leaving the impression that it does not affect Pay Day. Yet, upon checking the {{ga|Trainer Card}}, the player will discover that the amount was doubled accordingly.

{{YouTubeEmbed|CxieyRroBQE|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Normal}}

===Roaming Pokémon encounter bug===
Encountering and defeating {{p|Latios}} or {{p|Latias}} after losing a Trainer battle (without any other wild encounters in between) will cause the game to keep the data of the opponent's [[Party|Pokémon List]] slots 2-6.<ref name="GCLF">[http://forums.glitchcity.info/index.php/topic,7016.msg199101.html#msg199101 Battle Tower Lati@s glitch]</ref> If these slots contain data that does not match a [[Bad Egg]] or a [[Fainting|fainted]] {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, it will be sent out after defeating Lati@s, as if it were a Trainer battle. The Trainer's name is shown as "[[Pokémon Trainer|{{PK}}{{MN}} TRAINER]]" (ポケモントレーナー) and their Pokémon can be caught and [[nickname]]d.

The game considers this as a {{pkmn2|wild}} battle in [[roaming Pokémon]] mode.<ref name="GCLF"/> As such, the Pokémon is able to flee if it's not trapped by {{m|Mean Look}} or {{m|Spider Web}}. The roaming Pokémon is considered defeated or {{pkmn2|caught}} after catching the Trainer's Pokémon or defeating them in battle. If the Pokémon flees or the player loses/decides to run away, the roaming Pokémon will not be recognized as defeated or caught and will keep roaming [[Hoenn]] even if it only has 0 {{stat|HP}} left; under such circumstances, the bug will automatically load the Trainer's Pokémon and skip the roaming Pokémon.<ref name="GCLF"/> Since the game behaves as if it were a [[wild Pokémon]] battle, it will not present the Trainer's sprite and/or their "victory" speech. [[Pokédex]] entry data is also added if the Pokémon is caught.<ref name="GCLF"/>

[[Experience]] is gained from defeating the Trainer's Pokémon. If experience gains occur after defeating Lati@s, the game will keep playing [[Pokémon Ruby & Pokémon Sapphire: Super Music Collection|''Victory! (Wild Pokémon)'']] while the Trainer sends out their Pokémon. The original {{IV}}s of the Trainer's Pokémon are retained so the [[:#Roaming Pokémon IV bug|Roaming Pokémon IV bug]] does not apply.<ref name="GCLF"/>

The Trainer's Pokémon caught by the player may also become [[Bad Egg]]s, unless the Pokémon was obtained from a Trainer found in the {{Gdis|Battle Tower|III}}. This is because the Pokémon of other Trainers do not have a [[Trainer ID number]] and {{DL|Trainer ID number|Secret ID}} that match those of the player.<ref name="GCLF"/>

===Sand Ornament collapse bug===
In the Japanese versions of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, if the player places a {{DL|Ornament|Breakable ornaments|Sand Ornament}} against the wall in a {{DL|Secret Base|Generation III|Secret Base}} and collapses it (with the '''A''' button), adds a one-tile or three-tile poster behind the ornament, then exits and returns to the Secret Base, the ornament will not appear to have crumbled and it will still have the poster behind it. Collapsing the Sand Ornament again will trigger a hole on its top area.

In international versions of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire as well as all versions of {{game|Emerald}}, posters cannot be placed on a wall directly behind a Sand Ornament even if collapsed.

===Sootopolis rock wall oversight===
In [[Sootopolis City]], to the left of the staircase leading to the house of the old lady who talks about [[Mt. Pyre]] is a rock wall that the player can walk in. The player can only go one step in, however.

{{YouTubeEmbed|8s9qoVKNjEw|channel/UCgA3xOk7QY4MOYhc7EBFe0g|name=Wooggle Smith|Rock}}

===Stuck audio freeze===
In some copies of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, using {{m|Thunder}} or {{m|Thunderbolt}} may cause the [[Game freeze|game to freeze]] during the animation sequences of the [[move]]s. This can be remedied by turning off the [[battle effects]] in the [[options]].

===Trainer approach oversights===
{{GlitchResearch|Check all languages.}}
There are three [[Non-player character|NPCs]] who may move on top of an obstacle. This does not occur in the Spanish versions as none of these {{pkmn|Trainer}}s move.

If the player stands in {{rt|118|Hoenn}}'s {{tc|Aroma Lady}} Rose, {{rt|121|Hoenn}}'s {{tc|Gentleman}} Walter, or [[Abandoned Ship]]'s {{tc|Tuber}} Charlie's line of sight while directly behind the [[ledge]], fence, or wall, the Trainer will notice the player and walk over these obstacles and {{pkmn|battle}}.

{{YouTubeEmbed|awUZNb1rrJo|channel/UCgA3xOk7QY4MOYhc7EBFe0g|name=Wooggle Smith|Hoenn}}

===Trick Mail bug===
In the Japanese versions of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, the [[move]] {{m|Trick}} can be used to switch {{DL|Mail|Generation III|Mail}} with the [[held item]] of the opposing {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. This results in an [[item]] that has the Mail icon but acts like the item retrieved by Trick. If this bug is repeated six times, Mail can be given to the Pokémon without having to attach a message, and the player can just indefinitely withdraw the item from the Pokémon by giving it Mail then withdrawing it again. This can also corrupt tiles and their collision parameters based on the phrase of the buggy Mail when given to another Pokémon in the [[Party|Pokémon List]].

{{YouTubeEmbed|_JCUkA0UWJg|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Psychic}}

===Yellow Scarf bug===
In Japanese Ruby/Sapphire, a Pokémon with at least 200 points in the {{OBP|Smart|condition}}ness [[Contest condition|condition]] will be able to receive both the [[Green Scarf]] and [[Yellow Scarf]] (normally for having at least 200 points in {{OBP|Tough|condition}}ness) even if the Pokémon's Tough condition isn't high enough. For a Pokémon with only 200 points in Smartness, speaking to the [[Slateport City]] [[Pokémon Fan Club Chairman]] once would give out the Green Scarf and speaking to him again would give out the Yellow Scarf.

{{YouTubeEmbed|1mbM2fjSYBg|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Ruby|Sapphire}}

==Emerald==
===Aqua Hideout Dive glitch===
In the Japanese version of {{game|Emerald}}, in the submarine room of [[Team Aqua Hideout|Aqua Hideout]] there are [[water tile]]s that look like deep water on which the player can use {{m|Dive}}. While the player normally cannot use Dive on these tiles, they can if they [[save]] the game and resets while in this room. If they do use Dive, they will be warped to [[Petalburg City]], walking out the door of the house next to the lake.

In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, the player cannot access the Aqua or [[Magma Hideout]] after they gain the {{badge|Mind}} (which is required to use Dive outside of battle). In international versions of Emerald, the player cannot use Dive here even after saving and resetting.

{{YouTubeEmbed|24oaSdsjwaM|ChickasaurusGL|Water}}

===Battle Tower cloning glitch===
{{main|Cloning glitches#Generation III}}

===Hidden Power disobedience glitch===
{{GlitchResearch|Does the move use the power and damage category of Hidden Power or the used move? Can Pokémon be immune to Stun Spore due to type effectiveness?}}
If the player commands a Pokémon to use {{m|Hidden Power}}, but it instead uses a different move due to [[obedience|disobedience]], the used move will be the [[type]] of the Pokémon's chosen move.

This glitch affects the type effectiveness of {{m|Thunder Wave}} and {{m|Glare}}. For example, if Thunder Wave becomes a {{type|Fighting}} move, {{type|Ground}} Pokémon can be affected by it but {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon cannot.

{{YouTubeEmbed|AkezrtJDvTg|ChickasaurusGL|Normal}}

===Mirage Tower collision error===
In [[Mirage Tower]], there is no rock on the second floor near the ladder but the player cannot walk there.

{{YouTubeEmbed|KRAzeJman2g|channel/UCgA3xOk7QY4MOYhc7EBFe0g|name=Wooggle Smith|Ground}}

===Mover Vigoroth cry oversight===
In the Japanese version of {{game|Emerald}}, although the mover {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} at the player's house in [[Littleroot Town]] during their early {{pkmn|journey}} were changed from {{p|Machoke}} to {{p|Vigoroth}} by altering the sprites and text, the [[cry]] of Machoke was kept.

===Pomeg glitch===
{{main|Pomeg glitch}}

===Sootopolis Gym wall oversight===
In [[Sootopolis Gym]], the player can walk one step into the wall to the right-down of the stairs, causing them to stop working until he/she steps back onto the floor.

{{YouTubeEmbed|jtVnvwFGGWA|channel/UCG11xx7bQcbXB4ThsgsYs7w|name=EricchiYukia|Ice}}

===Trainer's School window tile quirks===
[[File:Pokémon Emerald black curtains.png|thumb|Black curtains in the Pokémon Trainer's School]]
When a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} is present in slots 4-6 of Box 8 (or Box 7's slots 26-28 in Japanese Emerald) of the [[Pokémon Storage System]], black pixels with a certain form are written on the sides of the windows of [[Rustboro City]]'s [[Pokémon Trainers' School|Pokémon Trainer's School]], based on the particular Pokémon.

Slot 4 controls a small portion of tiles near the top of the window, while slot 5 controls a large portion of tiles around the middle, with slot 6 controlling a small portion of tiles near the bottom.

When Pokémon fill all the affected the slots, curtain-like graphics typically appear, but one can manipulate this bug (i.e. by having slot 4 and slot 6 occupied but not slot 5) to make the pixels not resemble curtains as much.

Specifically, with memory-address location randomization disabled, the tiles depend on the data from addresses $0202DAE4-$0202DB43. Each byte can control 1-2 pairs of pixels for the left and east-most sides.

The bug occurs because data for tiles with IDs greater than 790 is overwritten with Pokémon data and the pixels on the window depend on the data of tiles 791-793.<ref>[http://forums.glitchcity.info/index.php/topic,6428.msg198621.html#msg198621 Black Curtains of Rustboro (Emerald)].</ref>

===Dive glitch===

===Poké Mart clerk oversight===
The [[Poké Mart]] clerk at [[Oldale Town]] normally gives the player a [[Potion]], but if the player has a full [[Bag]] when this happens, the Potion won't be handed out. If the player enters {{rt|103|Hoenn}} and then immediately returns to Oldale Town, the worker will be near the Poké Mart but will behave as if he was at the original position. Talking to the worker again will lead the player into a tree; however, the player can get out, because they are only one tile into the trees.

{{YouTubeEmbed|SntUFyb_3eM|channel/UCgA3xOk7QY4MOYhc7EBFe0g|name=Wooggle Smith|Medicine}}

===Pokéblock throw bug===

{{YouTubeEmbed|CGaaHg-2V2E|channel/UCLczqDEH90snBw3bF-Ql4DQ|name=Metarkrai M|Grass}}

===Route 134 current interruption error===
On {{rt|134|Hoenn}}, if the player surfs on the {{DL|Water tile|Currents|current}} near {{tc|Swimmer}} Laurel or Swimmer Jack and is spotted by them, when the battle is over, the player will remain stationary, despite being in the middle of the current.

===Route 134 current tile error===
In the bottom-right corner of the island to the southeast of {{rt|134|Hoenn}}, there is a {{DL|Water tile|Currents|current}} that does not behave as a [[water tile]]. The player cannot {{m|Surf}} on it but can walk on it. Walking on it will simply push the player back onto the island to the left.

{{YouTubeEmbed|OyVh7WNd2iE|channel/UCgA3xOk7QY4MOYhc7EBFe0g|name=Wooggle Smith|Water}}

===Wally defeating Ralts oversight===
In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald, it is possible for the capture tutorial where Wally catches a {{p|Ralts}} to end with Ralts [[fainting]]. This can only happen if {{p|Zigzagoon}} is generated with 11 Attack, and the wild Ralts has a [[Nature]] that lowers Defense, an [[Individual values|IV]] of 3 or less in HP, and 5 or less in Defense. With all this, Zigzagoon can do a maximum of 10 damage with its first {{m|Tackle}}, and after {{m|Growl}} is used on it, 7 with its second. This makes for a total of 17 damage, just enough to knock out Ralts. However, the game continues on as if it had been caught. The probability of this occurring is (182/800)*(4/25)*(4/32)*(6/32)*(5/16)*(7/16), about 1 in 8574 or about 0.01%.

{{YouTubeEmbed|xERTYBk3Txk|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Emerald}}

==FireRed and LeafGreen==
===Nugget Bridge script oversight===
If the player loses to the {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}} at the end of {{rt|24|Kanto|Nugget Bridge}}, the player has a chance to battle him again, unlike in the [[Generation I]] games. Each time he is rebattled, he will give the player a [[Nugget]], so one can purposely lose to obtain Nuggets repeatedly. This is caused by an unset flag before the battle begins, making the script endlessly repeat itself.

This bug only works in the Japanese and English versions as it was fixed in the European localizations.

{{YouTubeEmbed|nPMvNJWmeGA|channel/UCgA3xOk7QY4MOYhc7EBFe0g|name=Wooggle Smith|Gold}}

===Opening sequence oversight===
In English versions 1.0, the word "PRESENTS" is not shown in the [[Game Freak]] logo part of the opening sequence despite the graphics data being present in the ROM. This was fixed in English versions 1.1.

===Pokédex category oversight===
In the English version 1.0 release, if a [[Pokémon category]] has two words, the [[Pokédex]] will mistakenly only display the first word. For example, while {{p|Beedrill}}'s category is "Poison Bee Pokémon", it is listed in-game as "Poison Pokémon". Internal data lists categories as in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, so the game likely reads the space in the category name as a terminator. This was corrected in version 1.1 of the English versions, which is the one distributed in the {{wp|Nintendo Selects|Player's Choice}} release.

===Poké Flute music oversight===
While the [[Poké Flute]] melody is playing, if the [[Help System]] screen is opened and closed, the music will be muted until the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} wakes up.

{{YouTubeEmbed|QZatzouUnXc|GlitchyGarchomp|status}}

===Roaming Roar bug===
If a [[roaming Pokémon]] uses {{m|Roar}} to flee from {{pkmn|battle}}, it will no longer appear in the wild. This means that the player will not be able to catch it in that save file.

{{YouTubeEmbed|Bfv2g5batno|GlitchyGarchomp|normal}}

==Ruby, Sapphire, FireRed, and LeafGreen==
===Roaming Pokémon IV bug===
In the [[Generation III]] games, the data for a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}'s {{IV}}s are stored in a {{DL|Individual values|Generation III|32-bit integer}}. However, when a [[roaming Pokémon]] is {{pkmn2|caught}}, only the last 8 bits are transferred. While the {{stat|HP}} IV is unaffected, the Pokémon can only have a maximum {{stat|Attack}} IV of 7. The other IVs will always be 0.

Due to this, their {{m|Hidden Power}} type will always be Fighting with a power of 30 or 31.

==In all core series games==
===Evolution move-learning script bug===
If the player presses both '''A''' and '''B''' buttons during the same frame on the "Delete a move to make room for {move}?" message screen after their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} [[Evolution|evolves]], the "Stop learning {move}?" message screen is loaded as a full black screen, making it invisible. The game behaves normally otherwise but the graphics are only properly reloaded after the player presses the '''A''' button.

In the Western localizations of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}, the red focus rectangle can be seen on the black screen. This does not occur in the Japanese versions or in any release of {{game2|FireRed|LeafGreen|Emerald}} since a black focus arrow is used instead.

This behavior is not seen in non-evolution scenarios because the games use other procedures for the move-learning sequence.<ref>[http://forums.glitchcity.info/index.php/topic,7335.msg198896.html#msg198896 Emerald Teach move Glitch]</ref>

{{YouTubeEmbed|jIooN4DX3TU|channel/UCZz2ixp-5T6VeAPtAMQ5v5Q|name=ChickasaurusGL|Hoenn}}

===Focus Punch recall bug===
By selecting {{m|Focus Punch}} in a [[Double Battle]] on the first {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, pressing the '''B''' button, then [[recall]]ing the first Pokémon, the first Pokémon will tighten its focus in preparation for Focus Punch, then be recalled. This is due to the priority of Focus Punch getting prepared being higher than the priority for the recall.

{{YouTubeEmbed|SepV3AIF4VQ|channel/UCgA3xOk7QY4MOYhc7EBFe0g|name=Wooggle Smith|Fighting}}

===Sticky Hold graphics bug===
When {{m|Thief}} or {{m|Covet}} are used to knock out a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} holding an [[item]] that also has the {{a|Sticky Hold}} Ability, the sprite of the defeated Pokémon becomes stuck and gets translucent until another screen is loaded. Switching to the [[Bag]] screen or the [[Party|Pokémon List]] will cause it to disappear.

On a {{pkmn|battle}} against a full [[party]], defeating the next Pokémon will cause that Pokémon's sprite to vanish normally, but the stuck sprite will remain. If the second Pokémon is defeated without leaving the battle screen, a third Pokémon will come out, but the second Pokémon's sprite will be flushed out normally. The stuck sprite of the first Pokémon will remain and get recolored to match. This is because the game stores color palettes separately to the sprites themselves.

{{YouTubeEmbed|CR-MZ8QOBps|channel/UCmxPcJjW-ChC_fASAJ1Agsg|name=Nai|Dark}}

===Status condition delayed cure glitch===
If a Pokémon with a [[status condition]] that has an [[Ability]] that cures that status condition (e.g. a {{status|paralysis|paralyzed}} Pokémon with {{a|Limber}}) is sent into battle as one of the lead Pokémon or to replace a fainted Pokémon, or gains that Ability due to {{a|Trace}}, it will not be cured of its status condition until after a Pokémon takes its turn (uses a move, switches out, etc.). However, it will be immediately cured of the status condition if it is switched in to replace a switched out Pokémon.

Likewise, if a Pokémon with {{a|Trace}} is {{status|confusion|confused}} due to obtaining it from {{m|Baton Pass}}, if it gains {{a|Own Tempo}} via Trace it will not be cured of confusion until after a Pokémon takes its turn (uses a move, switches out, etc.).

===Stuck audio bug===
If {{m|Thunder}} or {{m|Thunderbolt}} are used during {{pkmn|battle}} with the [[Battle effects|effects]] enabled, the sound of the [[move]]s may get stuck until the game is rebooted. This is related to the [[#Stuck audio freeze|stuck audio freeze]] glitch.

===Vital Throw details error===
[[File:Vital Throw wrong display.png|thumb|The error in the accuracy parameter]]
The details on the description for the [[move]] {{m|Vital Throw}} show it as having 100% {{stat|accuracy}}, despite the move hitting the opposing {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} regardless of accuracy and {{stat|evasion}}.
{{-}}

=={{pkmn|Colosseum}}==
===Perish Song experience bugs===
====Involving status ailments====
{{GlitchResearch|Do volatile status ailments like confusion, Leech Seed, and Curse cause this too?}}
When the last opposing {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} is defeated by a {{status|burn}} or {{status|poison}} while the player's Pokémon are under the effect of {{m|Perish Song}}, the player's Pokémon will gain [[experience]] immediately after the Pokémon [[Fainting|faints]], then once again each time one of the player's Pokémon's perish count drops. This allows Pokémon to gain the experience for defeating the Pokémon up to three times.

{{YouTubeEmbed|41_bnx_Zs_Q|channel/UCggEnHVdFtDCboTsgese_NQ|name=Luigi Haunter|Colosseum}}

====Involving weather====
{{GlitchResearch|Does Hail trigger this too? Is the Exp. Share required? Does the opposing Pokémon need to be immune to weather damage? What happens if both of the Player's Pokémon would hit zero?}}

If the last opposing {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} is defeated with Perish Count while {{m|Sandstorm}} is active, the opposing Pokémon that fainted was immune to Sandstorm, and at least one if the player's Pokémon is about to also reach zero, then the battle will continue on with the player's Pokémon also fainting. Those Pokémon that were out with that Pokémon and any Pokémon holding an [[Exp. Share]] will gain experience as if it was an opposing Pokémon before the battle concludes.

===Poké Ball amount bug===
By selecting a [[Poké Ball]] during the turn of the player's first {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, changing the location of the selected Poké Ball with another Poké Ball type in the Bag with the '''Y''' button on the second Pokémon's turn, then throwing the Poké Ball, the Poké Ball pocket will still display the same amount of Poké Balls, as if the Poké Ball just thrown had not been used.

Sometimes, using a [[Master Ball]] will [[Game freeze|freeze the game]] and bring the "An error occurred" message the [[Nintendo GameCube]] gives when it fails to properly read a game.

Additionally, if the second Pokémon is using a multiple-turn [[move]] that was selected on a previous turn, the attack prevents the bug from working, which causes the thrown [[Snag Ball]] to be used.

This glitch was fixed in the sequel; [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]].

{{YouTubeEmbed|PK4lMxx6YAc|channel/UCzozMcF1kcR9dzsdEkRHdaw|name=Jake Auralight °w° (Gligar13Vids)|Colosseum}}

===Shiny Shadow Pokémon bug===
Like in the [[core series]] games, in {{g|Colosseum}} there is a 1/8192 chance of a [[Shadow Pokémon]] being {{Shiny}}, but it will most likely lose its Shiny status when captured by the player; conversely, there is a 1/8192 chance that a Shadow Pokémon may spontaneously become Shiny when captured by the player.

This bug occurs because when the player captures a Shadow Pokémon, their [[Trainer ID number]] overwrites the [[original Trainer]]'s ID number, unlike with [[trade]]d Pokémon; because the Trainer ID number is a factor in Shiny calculation, this may cause the Pokémon to acquire (or lose) their Shiny status. This is similar to the oddity of a hatched {{pkmn|Egg}} changing from normal to Shiny (or vice-versa) if it was traded to another player before hatching.

In {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}}, the game calculates a [[personality value]] for a Shadow Pokémon, checks it against the player's and opponent's ID numbers, and if either one would result in a Shiny Pokémon, it generates a new personality value for that Pokémon (repeating if necessary). As a direct result, Shadow Pokémon in {{XD}} can never be Shiny (though other Pokémon, such as those appearing in [[Poké Spot]]s or [[Battle CD]]s, can be).

{{YouTubeEmbed|zqUo_u-MhwA|channel/UCrWfNs3bu-p_n4FqLPM7WSw|name=SargeantMario101|XD}}

===Snag recall bug===
{{GlitchResearch|Is it fixed in XD?}}
[[File:Snagging glitch.png|thumb|The bug in effect]]
If the player snags a [[Shadow Pokémon]] on the same turn that the {{wp|Artificial intelligence (video games)|AI}} opponent [[recall]]s its other Pokémon (e.g.: to avoid {{m|Yawn}}'s effect), and the opponent only has two non-Shadow Pokémon left, they will not send out a Pokémon in the place of the snagged one.
{{clear}}

===Snagem Hideout office bug===
{{GlitchResearch|Exists in XD}}
In {{g|Colosseum}}, the corner of the wall directly in front of the stairs in Gonzap's office within [[Snagem Hideout]] is buggy. While walking upwards into this corner of the wall, the player will hit the corner, continue to walk, and cause the screen to start to shake. This can be used to automatically purify all [[Shadow Pokémon]] in the player's [[party]] or the {{pkmn|Day Care}} while the {{wp|GameCube controller}}'s Control Stick is held in the same direction.

=={{pkmn|XD}}==
===Shadow Voltorb Catch Bug===
{{GlitchResearch|Any known workarounds or fixes?}}
If the player fails to capture the Shadow Voltorb when defeating Miror B at the Cave Pokespot, none of the Miror B rematches will ever provide another opportunity to capture the Shadow Voltorb again. This means the player will only ever be able to capture 81 of the 83 total Shadow Pokemon in the game, and will not be able to capture the Voltorb or Dragonite without completely restarting the game.

=={{pkmn|Colosseum}} and {{XD}}==
===Agate Village cliff bug===
{{GlitchResearch|XD variant details}}
In {{g|Colosseum}}, the cliffs in [[Agate Village]] directly to the left and right of the hill at the entrance are buggy. While walking downwards on these small cliffs, there are two specific points where the player will hit the edge, continue to walk, and cause the screen to start to shake. This can be used to automatically purify all [[Shadow Pokémon]] in the player's [[party]] or the {{pkmn|Day Care}} while the {{wp|GameCube controller}}'s Control Stick is held in the same direction.

This bug can also be done in {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}} under different conditions.

== Quick Question, TCG ==

I have a Celebi card and I want to add the info in it's own article. I'm slightly new here so I don't know much about creating TCG articles. What's confusing me though is the broken link on this page. When I go about creating the page should I make a sort of disambiguation page in case that there is more than 1 type of Celebi card? Or should I just make the page go right to a single card? I may not have phrased that right but hopefully somebody understands what I'm tying to ask. Help please.

I agree with Fabu-Vinny. All artwork from Nintendo is official. Nintendo owns the copyrights and the franchise. The artist doesn’t. What’s inconsistent? Not using the same style as the character was originally drawn in from their first appearance, or not using the same artwork from one artist only? What it comes down to is you are splitting hairs. Any artwork officially recognized by Nintendo is acceptable. From a regular person’s point of view any good artwork would be acceptable, but it is a good policy to stay on Nintendo’s good side and use only official images.

Had a recent edit to the trivia undone. I put that Celebi was the first Pokémon to manipulate time, the second being Dialga, but Celebi can only travel through time, not control it. This power belongs to Dialga. If this isn't worth noting, then should the same trivia that was listed in Dialga's trivia should be removed too? Because Celebi was the FIRST Pokémon to have something to do with time so to think that trivia would've been listed in Celebi's trivia too. Several other pages that are related have the same thing listed in their trivia as well. Such as the Latios and Lucario being first and second Pokémon respectively to die in the movies. Explain why worth not noting Celebi being the first to manipulate time (but only travels through it), second being Dialga?

== Reply to Name Origin ==

In my experience with the Japanese Language(orally), "Serubi" 'should' sound like Seravee, which I believe is actually one of the name's of the Angels of the Angel Caste System in Christianity/Celestial Being. The name Seravee and Cerubi are similar in pronounciation. I say this because the correct spelling in Japanese of "Celebi" is "Serubi". This is because the "R" is replaced with "L" and the "V" in English is replaced with "B" in the Japanese when speaking foreign names. Like Seravee, Celebi protects and acts as a guardian of the "Holy" grounds of the forest/garden. I'm saying this is probably The most possible answer to the Origin of Celebi's Name. Not serenity or Celery + bii/beautiful. Take Gardevoir for example, its name is Sir Knight but the spelling is a bit off. Usually the Japanese names and the way they are spelled reflect what they are supposed to sound in English. For example, Piplup's name is Pochama. "B's and "P's" is replaced to reflect Bochama, which is a term that is used with Nobility, such as a Prince or a young male master of the house (or mansion). This reflects it's personality in the anime of being a young arrogant spoiled prince as the Pipulop evolves into an "Emperor" Penguin. Why did Pochama translate into Piplup I have absolutely no idea.....

== Origin ==
Celebi looks more to based on Tinkerbell from Peter Pan rather that Dr. Suess' The Lorax. --[[User:PikachuMonster|PikachuMonster]] ([[User talk:PikachuMonster|talk]]) 02:37, 14 April 2013 (UTC)

== In the trivia section: ==

It says what "Celebi has the most weaknesses of any legendary Pokémon", but now Terrakion have 7 weaknesses as well, with the fairy introduction, so yeah change it :3 {{unsigned|.Rawr!}}

== Celebi's got the Kalos dex symbol but is not in any Kalos Dex ==

I just noticed that Celebi's got the Kalos dex symbol but is not in any Kalos Dex. It shows up in the national dex, but usually when a Pokémon has the Kalos dex symbol, its because they're in one of the three Kalos dexes. Pokémon who do not appear in the Kalos Dexes usually have the National dex symbol of a Poké Ball. Should this anomaly be mentioned?[[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 00:50, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
:That's not what the symbol means; the "Kalos dex symbol", the pentagon, represents Pokemon that originate in a Gen 6 game. Note that the event Torchic shows the symbol despite the Torchic family not being in the Kalos dex. The event Celebi is similarly marked. [[User:Miles of SmashWiki|'''Miles''']] ([[User talk:Miles of SmashWiki|talk]]) 00:54, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
::So any Pokémon generated in a gen 6 game has this symbol? And any Pokémon transferred over from a previous gen game will have the Poké Ball symbol?

::Because I have for example the gen V starters and they have the "Kalos Symbol" But I believe they were born from Pokémon Bred in gen VI before I received them. On the other hand I have Minccino and Cinccino (which I got through a trade) in my dex, but they have the Poké Ball symbol instead.[[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 01:45, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
:::I'm fairly certain that the symbols are indeed based on the game in which an individual Pokemon was generated. For example, if you breed a Minccino from the ones you have with the Poke Ball symbol in XY, it should replace the symbol in the dex with the Kalos one. [[User:Miles of SmashWiki|'''Miles''']] ([[User talk:Miles of SmashWiki|talk]]) 01:48, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
::::Ok, I just verified it did get replaced and upon evolution, Cinccino's also got replaced. I see now, so even if a Poké Ball is there, if at any time a Pokémon generated in/for a Gen VI game is acquired, then the Poké Ball will be replaced with the Pentagon Kalos Symbol. Ok thank you for clearing this up.[[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 02:08, 7 February 2014 (UTC)

== Hold Back ==

I think from gen 6 and on [[Hold Back]] is part of the skillset of [[Celebi]]. I got my [[Pokemon Bank Celebi]], erased the move and was then able to "relearn" it. I know this isn't proof enough, but I would want someone to try to get a non-bank-event [[Celebi]] to a gen 6 game and attempt to "relearn" [[Hold Back]] on the [[Move Reminder]]. If someone is able to confirm this leave a note here so someone can either update the front page or close this section. [[User:LordHieros|LordHieros]] ([[User talk:LordHieros|talk]]) 07:10, 25 February 2014 (UTC)
::Pokémon can relearn event moves in Gen VI. non-bank event celebi cannot learn hold back. --[[User talk:Relicant|The]] [[Special:Contributions/Relicant|Truth]] aka Relicant 07:19, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

==Celebi-Celery==
Did anyone else notice that Celebi sounds a lot like Celery, and it's a grass-type? {{unsigned|MarkyShark5}}
:It has no connection to celery other than a similar name and type, so I wouldn't put anything on the article about it. --[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|The]]Very[[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|Best]] 01:07, 9 March 2014 (UTC)

== More on the Name Origin ==

Celebi's name may be a mis-romanised French phonetic pun. Since Japanese lacks not only a distinctive "l" sound but also a "v" sound, "Celevi" is also a legitimate romanisation. Celevi phonetically approximates "C'est la vie", the French equivalent of the English phrase "That's life". This makes thematic sense both from a figurative standpoint ("That's life" as a phrase referring to something you should have done and didn't, as Celebi is the Time Travel Pokémon), and a literal one (as Celebi is the Guardian of the Forest, and defender of the abundant variety of life within).

In conclusion, Celebi = Celevi = C'est la vie. This sounds fairly plausible to me.

== Omega Ruby Pokédex Entry ==

I have the English Pokédex entry for Celebi in Omega Ruby, but since I don't have the one from Alpha Sapphire yet, I don't think it should be added (everywhere else I've looked, the Pokédex entries from paired versions have always been added at the same time). The entry says: "This Pokémon came from the future by crossing over time. It is thought that so long as Celebi appears, a bright and shining future awaits us."

== Blue/Red Rescue Team? ==

I get it's to save multiple pictures but... I have never even seen let alone even heard of the presence of the Shiny version of Celebi on the first Mystery Dungeon games. The Shiny is purely exclusive to T/D/S as a plot-exclusive Pokemon (and that special episode AND the tag-along in the future). I have not been made aware of its presence in the first MD games, so it is a little misleading to have it flashing on both like that. [[User:Pinkolol16|Pinkolol16]] ([[User talk:Pinkolol16|talk]]) 06:26, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

So... we gonna do something about this or no? I don't think we want to mislead when it comes to PMD1; Shiny Celebi makes no appearance in that game. [[User:Pinkolol16|Pinkolol16]] ([[User talk:Pinkolol16|talk]]) 10:47, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

==Wrong Japanese Name Breakdown==

The Japanese breakdown of Celebi's name is translated incorrectly, and improperly labeled. It's Japanese name is written as セレビイ (with a small イ), but it has the English "Celebi" under it's name. This is very misleading, as the sound "Ce" or even the letter/sound "C" does not appear in the Japanese language. The "L" sound/letter also does not exist in Japanese. The correct pronunciation/romaji is "Serebii"... セ=se, レ=re, ビ=bi, イ=i... Japanese character sounds -never- change their pronunciations under any circumstances, so to showcase it as such is highly inaccurate. [[User:Asiyd|Asiyd]] ([[User talk:Asiyd|talk]]) 05:11, 27 December 2015 (UTC)
:It's the trademarked Japanese romanization seen on merchandise and what not. The "Serebii" translation is mentioned, just hover your mouse over the translation on the infobox and a small box should appear with the "Serebii" translation.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 05:20, 27 December 2015 (UTC)

::Shouldn't that be listed under trivia then? It was my impression that the name section for romaji was for direct translation and pronunciation... regardless of official publishing, it is still pronounced as 'Serebii', due to how the Japanese language works.

:::Unlike Wikipedia, we go with what the first party source has it as, rather than a third party.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:25, 28 December 2015 (UTC)
:::: .... Wow, okay, you're kinda rude. Going by your rudeness, I do believe I'm gonna respond in kind. Unlike Wikipedia, I guess you guys don't care about accuracy, then. Go take a Japanese language course. [[User:Asiyd|Asiyd]] ([[User talk:Asiyd|talk]]) 05:38, 28 December 2015 (UTC)
:::::Apologies if that sounded rude, that wasn't my intention. Using what the official product uses is being accurate. Why would we not use what the creators intended the romanization to be? We're going to trust Pokemon.com more than a random news site. The transliteration is mentioned, but that does not mean it is the official name that Game Freak uses.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 07:04, 28 December 2015 (UTC)
::::::Something that's kind of being glossed over here: the format of that parenthetical is not strictly meant for romanizations (or pronunciations), it's meant for ''translations''. See, for instance, [[Potion]], which says "'''Potion''' (Japanese: '''キズぐすり''' ''Wound medicine'')", not "'''Potion''' (Japanese: '''キズぐすり''' ''kizugusuri'')". In the case of Pokemon names, the trademarked romanization is a far more proper "translation" than any strict romanization. For something like {{p|Crustle}}, for instance, ''Iwapalace'' is much better "translated"/more illuminating than ''iwaparesu''.

== Game Location for Gen 7 ==

Thoughts on editing the Gen VII Game Location section to list both [[Event]] and [[Poké Transporter|Transfer]] from [[Pokémon_Crystal_Version#Differences_in_the_Virtual_Console_release|Virtual Console Crystal]]? [[User:Teelo|Teelo]] ([[User talk:Teelo|talk]]) 05:36, 21 February 2018 (UTC)
:Our standards for location sections are that direct availability > indirect availability via evolution > event availability > transfer from past generations, such that availability in any category means we don't list lower categories. Otherwise, the sections would balloon immensely, with almost every Pokemon getting "Transfer from such-and-such game" listed numerous times.
