Illumise (Pokémon)

2026-07-15T23:42:37Z

TohjoFalls: /* Trivia */ It's not a "can be seen as", it is a counterpart to Volbeat. They breed into each other, and the article even calls it a counterpart multiple times.

'''Illumise''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''イルミーゼ''' ''Illumise'') is a {{type|Bug}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

While it is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, it is directly related to {{p|Volbeat}}, evidenced by its ability to produce {{pkmn|Egg}}s that contain either Illumise or Volbeat.

==Biology==
Illumise is a firefly-like, bipedal {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. It has a blue face and large, slanted blue eyes with purple markings at the corners. Surrounding its head are purple curls that frame its face. Its antennae are small and yellow. Its body is black with a blue belly and a yellow bib marking. Its arms and legs are black and are connected to the body by purple borders. It has small wings used for flying with others, and a pattern of three oblong yellow spots on its rear. This is a female only species; {{p|Volbeat}} is its male counterpart.

Illumise uses its sweet aromas to lure in Volbeat and have them draw geometric patterns in the sky. It is said to earn respect from others by composing designs that are more complex. Over 200 different patterns have been discovered. It is a nocturnal Pokémon that lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|forests.}}

==Game data==

* {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness}}: A large group of Illumise and {{p|Volbeat}} are seen at [[Fogbound Lake]] where they put on a display making the lake look beautiful.

===Origin===
Illumise appears to be based on a {{wp|lampyridae|lampyrid}} (also known as a firefly or lightning bug) like its counterpart, {{p|Volbeat}}. Illumise may also be based on {{wp|flapper}}s, a 1920s women's subculture; they usually had {{wp|Bob cut|bobbed hair}}, like Illumise's purple "hair", and wore taboo dresses and outfits. Illumise seems to be wearing a leotard, black jacket, coat, or dress, similar to Volbeat's, with purple arm and leg cuffs. The yellow bow-like shape under its neck is reminiscent of a yellow {{wp|Peter Pan collar}} and the stripes on its abdomen resemble a {{wp|girdle}}.

====Name origin====
Illumise may be a combination of ''illuminate'' and ''{{wp|luciferase}}'' (class of enzymes that produces bioluminescence).

TohjoFalls: /* Trivia */ It's not a "can be seen as", it is a counterpart to Illumise. They breed into each other, even, and the article even calls it a counterpart multiple times.

'''Volbeat''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''バルビート''' ''Barubeat'') is a {{type|Bug}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

While it is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, it is related to {{p|Illumise}} and, starting in [[Generation V]], can produce {{pkmn|Egg}}s that contain either Illumise or Volbeat when [[Pokémon breeding|bred]] with {{p|Ditto}}.

==Biology==
Volbeat is a firefly-like, bipedal {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Its body is black with a blue chest and abdomen. There are two yellow stripes across its front: one on its chest and one near its legs. A red band separates each limb from its body and a thicker, incomplete one surrounds its shoulders. Two simple wings extend from the band around its shoulder. It has a blue face with yellow eyes, and curly, yellow antennae with black stripes. It has a spherical yellow tail, which glows to communicate and draw geometric patterns in the sky while in a swarm. In [[Generation III]], {{m|Tail Glow}} was its [[signature move]]. This is a male only species; {{p|Illumise}} is its female counterpart. Volbeat is attracted by the sweet aroma given off by Illumise. It lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|forests near clean ponds,}} but will move if the pond becomes dirty.

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* {{g|Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire}}: After a successful Travel Mode on the [[Ruby Field]], Volbeat will fly down to paint in the new area.
* {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness}}: A large group of Volbeat and {{p|Illumise}} are seen at [[Fogbound Lake]] where they put on a display making the lake look beautiful.

Volbeat debuted in ''[[PK11|Camp Pikachu]]'', where he served as a sort of camp counselor and guide at a mill that {{AP|Pikachu}} and his friends stumbled upon.

Five Volbeat made their animated series debut in ''[[AG042|Love at First Flight]]''. All of them, including one [[nickname]]d Beat, were under the ownership of [[Romeo]] and part of a show alongside Illumise for the [[May Festival]].

In ''[[AG080|That's Just Swellow]]'', [[Volt]] owns a Volbeat that knows {{type|Electric}} moves like {{m|Thunder}} and is always used in [[PokéRinger]] competitions. As such, Volbeat was used during the [[Crossgate PokéRinger]] tournament, but he wound up being defeated by {{AP|Taillow}}.

In ''[[AG157|Time Warp Heals All Wounds]]'', [[Edna]] mentioned how Volbeat and Illumise frequently did their mating dance rituals in a large tree that used to be located in the middle of the city. In the new timeline {{an|May}} created after [[time travel]]ing, the tree remained and the migrations never stopped.

====Minor appearances====
In ''[[AG068|A Double Dilemma]]'', a Volbeat was living in [[North Petalburg]].

A Volbeat appeared in ''[[AG090|Pokéblock, Stock, and Berry]]''.

In ''[[AG091|Lessons in Lilycove]]'', a {{pkmn|Coordinator}}'s Volbeat competed in the [[Lilycove City]] {{pkmn|Contest}}.

In ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]'', a Volbeat living in [[Crown City]] worked with several other Pokémon in surrounding {{OBP|Zorua|M13}} at the park. They were intent on attacking him as retribution for what {{OBP|Zoroark|M13}} did to the city. Before a fight could break out, Volbeat and the other Pokémon were calmed by {{OBP|Celebi|M13}}.

A Volbeat appeared in ''[[JN096|Lighting the Way Home!]]''.

[[File:Amber Volbeat Adventures.png|thumb|125px|Volbeat in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===Pokémon Adventures===
Volbeat debuted in ''[[PS181|Creepin Past Cacnea]]'', where a wild one battled alongside a {{p|Duskull}}, a {{p|Wingull}}, a {{p|Cacnea}}, and a {{p|Beautifly}} against [[Norman]], but they were quickly defeated by his Pokémon.

{{tc|Aqua Admin}} {{adv|Amber}} owns two Volbeat, both of which first appeared in ''[[PS242|Very Vexing Volbeat]]''. While one distracted [[Team Magma]] with {{m|Tail Glow}}, the other was able to steal the [[Blue Orb]] from the enemy team and deliver it to [[Archie]].

In ''[[PS331|The Final Battle IV]]'', a Volbeat helped {{adv|Emerald}} with his disabilities.

===Pokémon Ruby-Sapphire===
A Volbeat appeared in ''[[PMRS14|Pokémon Friendship Story]]''.

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

==Trivia==
* Volbeat is a counterpart to {{p|Illumise}}.
** They are both {{pkmn|category|known as}} the Firefly Pokémon.
** Volbeat is exclusively [[male]], while Illumise is exclusively female.
** They have the same [[Hidden Ability]], {{a|Prankster}}.
** They are the only Pokémon in both the {{egg|Bug}} and {{egg|Human-Like}} Egg Groups.
*** They are the only {{type|Bug}} Pokémon in the Human-Like Egg Group.
** They have the same weight of 39.0 lbs. (17.7 kg).
** They have the same base [[experience]] yield of 151.
** They have opposite experience groups, with Volbeat being in the Erratic group and Illumise being in the Fluctuating group.
** They have the same [[EV yield]] of 1 {{stat|Speed}}.
** They share the same [[Base stats|base stat]] total of 430.
*** They also share a similar stat distribution, with their Attack and Special Attack stats swapped.
** They learn new moves at similar levels and many of the same moves.
** Wild Volbeat is [[Version-exclusive Pokémon|exclusive]] to {{game|Black and White|s|Black}} and {{B2W2|Black 2}}, while wild Illumise is exclusive to White and White 2.
* In Generation VII, Volbeat is the only Pokémon with an illegal combination of Egg moves ({{m|Lunge}} and {{m|Dizzy Punch}}), as it is male only and has different Egg moves from its female counterpart, {{p|Illumise}}. {{p|Nidoran♂}} is in a similar situation, but it is in the Field Egg Group and can therefore inherit any combination of Egg moves from {{p|Smeargle}}.
* In {{g|GO}}, Volbeat is a [[List of Pokémon by availability in Pokémon GO#Region-exclusive Pokémon|region-exclusive]] Pokémon generally found in Europe, Asia, and Australia, while Illumise is generally found in the Americas, Africa, and the Middle East.

===Origin===
Volbeat appears to be based on a {{wp|lampyridae|lampyrid}} (also known as a firefly or lightningbug) like its counterpart, {{p|Illumise}}. Its coloring resembles the subfamily {{wp|Cyphonocerinae}}. Its appearance may also be based on a {{wp|Greaser (subculture)|greaser}}, a subculture in the 1950s; their Japanese counterparts are the {{wp|Bōsōzoku}}. Greasers usually wore black or brown Y-collared trench-coats and/or jackets with under shirts and also had heavily greased hair. This is shown in Volbeat's black colored "shirt", striped belly "under shirt" and "collar". The pose Volbeat takes in its official art may also be a reference to greasers, as they are commonly shown with their hands either holding or popping their jacket collars.

====Name origin====
Volbeat may be a combination of ''volt'' and ''{{wp|beetle}}'' or ''beat''.

Barubeat may be a combination of バルブ ''bulb'', ''beat'', and ''beetle''.

Team Flare Admin (Trainer class)

TohjoFalls: People are likely to confuse the team flare admin class for the scientists. Thought it might be a idea to do one of these for that reason.

A '''Team Flare Admin''' (Japanese: '''フレア団のかんぶ''' ''Team Flare Executive'') is a type of [[Pokémon Trainer]] introduced in [[Generation VI]]. They are members of [[Team Flare]] higher in rank than {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}}s.

[[Malva]] is stated to have been a Team Flare Admin in [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]]. [[Chalmers]], a {{tc|Butler}} who is encountered during [[Looker]] Bureau Chapter 5, is a former Team Flare Admin.

A pair of Team Flare Admins, one male and one female, debuted in ''[[XY106|A Meeting of Two Journeys!]]''. They were seen on an island with [[Xerosic]] and some {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}}s, conducting an experiment with a prototype weapon utilizing some {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Zygarde|Zygarde Cells}} and the [[Mega Evolution]] energy previously collected by Team Flare.

In ''[[XY111|Unlocking Some Respect!]]'', Admins helped Xerosic with experimenting on [[Z2]].

In ''[[XY119|A Full-Strength Battle Surprise!]]'', Admins used a machine to create some giant roots in a forest that an [[Officer Jenny]] came to investigate.

{{adv|Tierno}} encountered a female Team Flare Admin at {{rt|5|Kalos}}. After learning of her plans to lead an operation to rob the [[Poké Ball Factory]], Tierno fought the Admin to stop her. With help from X, Tierno managed to defeat the Admin, though they were unable to prevent the Poké Ball Factory from being robbed later.

A male Team Flare Admin named [[Chalmers]] attacked Gurkinn to obtain the secrets of [[Mega Evolution]] for his superiors, but was defeated by [[Diantha]]. He was later seen locking {{kal|Grace}} in her cell after her failed escape attempt.

Chalmers, a female Admin, and [[Malva's Delphox]] planned to drain Pokémon [[Death in the Pokémon world#Life-force|life energy]] on {{rt|10|Kalos}} for the [[ultimate weapon]], but were thwarted by [[Alexa]], [[Viola]], [[Clemont]], [[Bonnie]], and [[Yvette]].

The '''Caterpie Forest''' is a Pokémon fan site run by Frosterpie. It is also known as FCF (Frosterpie's Caterpie Forest).

FCF was launched in January 1999, where it initially was going to be another information fan site; however, {{p|Caterpie}} Forest quickly became known for the fanfic series, ''The Adventures of Icy and Sara''. FCF has gone though multiple layout changes throughout its history, over ten as of 2009. It is a fairly popular series.

Today, FCF remains an archive of Frosterpie's fanfiction. It also had a forum, titled ''Togepi Message Board'', which has since shut down.

The page was left empty for a few years between 2020<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20201001012036/http://www.caterpieforest.com/</ref> and 2025<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20250330203400/https://www.caterpieforest.com/</ref>, but came back somewhere around or before 3/30/2026<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20260410091222/https://www.caterpieforest.com/</ref>.

'''Lysandre''' (Japanese: '''フラダリ''' ''Fuladari''<ref>[https://static.mercdn.net/item/detail/orig/photos/m71414691435_1.jpg?1733128459 "Fuladari & Kaenjishi" Pokémon Center Clear Card merchandise]</ref>) is the boss of [[Team Flare]], the main antagonist of [[Pokémon X and Y]] and a supporting character in [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]]. He is also a descendant of royalty, as well as a philanthropist and the owner of [[Lysandre Labs]], the company that created the [[Holo Caster]]. He is the only character in the games to have the {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}} '''Team Flare Boss''' (Japanese: '''フレアだんボス''' ''Flare Gang Boss'').

He originally sought to use the [[ultimate weapon]] to reduce the {{pkmn|world|world}} population in order to return the planet to a more "beautiful", unspoiled state; what he implies to be a world without 'negative' or 'ugly' concepts, such as strife, struggle, war, or despair.<ref name="Pokémon.com 2017-11-02">Lysandre is the boss of Team Flare, the villainous organization that appeared in ''Pokémon X'' and ''Pokémon Y''. He is, by nature, a man of deep sympathies—but has been driven to despair by watching humans fighting and struggling against one another, and he comes to believe that the only way for people to live in beauty, without strife or struggle, is by reducing the number of people living in the world. He restored the ultimate weapon, which had been sealed away 3000 years earlier, and then, using the power of the Legendary Pokémon Xerneas or Yveltal, he attempted to eradicate life.</ref>

After being saved from a near-death experience by [[Zygarde (Pokémon)|Zygarde]], who had protected all living beings from the firing of the ultimate weapon in X and Y, Lysandre lost most of his memories and took on the moniker '''L''' (Japanese: '''Ｆ''' ''F''), now working alongside Zygarde to restore its powers and save [[Lumiose City]].

==In the core series games==
===Appearance===
====Pokémon X and Y====
Lysandre is a tall, well-built man with light skin and blue eyes. He has [[#Hair|long spiky orange hair]] and a beard.

He wears a red shirt with a cravat beneath his black jacket, which has a white fur collar. The jacket has a single-button cuffs, red side stripes and front flap pockets with red contrast trim. His black pants also have red side stripes and back welt pockets with red contrast trim. He wears black shoes and black fingerless gloves on his hands. On his left hand, he wears a [[Key Stone#Gallery|Mega Ring]] with the Team Flare insignia engraved on its sides, which he wears on his middle finger.

In the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]], Lysandre appears with a cybernetic apparatus called the '''Lysandre Machine'''. The apparatus consists of a bronze, beetle-like gauntlet worn on his right arm, a gray mechanical backpack and three flying insect-like devices connected to the backpack by cables. He also wears an orange visor similar to those worn by Team Flare scientists.
====Pokémon Legends: Z-A====
After Lysandre survived the activation of the [[ultimate weapon]] in X and Y, he reappeared five years later. Due to his close exposure to the ultimate weapon, his lifespan was extended by three thousand years, similar to [[AZ]]'s. His left eye was seemingly blinded, taking on an unnatural glow, which he only opened during battle. His hair turned white and became shorter, and his beard is white with orange streaks, reminiscent of his original hair color.

His outfit appears worn. He wears a black hooded jacket with a fur collar. On the jacket's elbows are red stitched patches, with the right patch shaped like a Y. Beneath the jacket, he wears a gray shirt with red buttons and under that, a red hoodie whose hood is stitched down the middle. His pants are gray with red stitched patches on the knees, with the left patch shaped like an X. He also wears red socks and black shoes. Lysandre still keeps his Mega Ring with him however, he no longer wears it on his hand.

=== History ===

==== Background ====
Lysandre is descended from Kalos royalty and old friends with [[Professor Sycamore]].<ref>'''Professor Sycamore:''' ''"Actually, Lysandre himself is of royal ancestry... He truly is a chosen one."'' ({{g|X and Y}})</ref> As the rich owner of a technology company, Lysandre was a philanthropist who often made donations to better the world.<ref>'''Professor Sycamore:''' ''"Lysandre is a great man. He supports Trainers and Pokémon research with some of the profit from the Holo Caster."'' ({{g|X and Y}})</ref> One of the people he helped was a young [[Corbeau]], who would come to idolize Lysandre for his generosity. Lysandre formed an organization called [[Team Flare]] to serve as a place for people to come together and help one another, as seen when [[Grisham]] and [[Griselle]] joined the organization in their youth. As time went on, Lysandre witnessed the ugliness of people and the world, and found that his charities and donations were not doing as much good as he had hoped. He gradually turned into a misanthrope who saw no hope for the future because of human "foolishness".<ref>'''Lysandre:''' ''I tried to save people--and the world--with the profit from this lab. But my efforts had no effect... The world was just too vast...and too full of fools that I couldn't save through my hard work alone."'' ({{g|X and Y}})</ref> He would come to blame the expanding human population for this, deciding that conflict came from people being unable to share limited resources.<ref>'''Lysandre:''' ''"When there is only one of something, it can't be shared. When something can't be shared, it will be fought over. And when something is fought over, some must survive without it. The only way to create a world where people live in beauty, a world without conflict or theft, is to reduce the number of living things."'' ({{g|X and Y}})</ref> Lysandre is also one of the few who knows where the ultimate weapon was buried, thanks to his ancestor who buried it in the first place. He also transformed Team Flare from a peaceful organization into a villainous group dedicated to creating a more "beautiful and better" world. To accomplish this, he needed both the ultimate weapon, and financial support, which involved eliminating anyone who opposed his vision for the new world he intended to create.

==== {{g|X and Y}} ====
[[File:Lysandre meeting Player XY.png|thumb|250px|left|Lysandre meeting the player at Sycamore's lab]]
The player first meets Lysandre in [[Professor Sycamore]]'s lab in [[Lumiose City]] seeing potential in them, and then later in Café Soleil where he is seen talking to [[Diantha]] about her acting career. He discusses with her about the idea of eternal beauty, but she quickly dismisses the idea, claiming that she does not look for such a thing, much to Lysandre's annoyance. After this, he spots the player, where he speaks about his dream of a beautiful world.

Following this, Lysandre doesn't reappear until much later, after the player has defeated [[Clemont]] for their fifth Badge. This time, he speaks about the [[AZ|king of Kalos]] who nearly vaporized all life in the region 3,000 years ago by usage of a weapon. He also speaks about Xerneas's{{sup/6|X}}/Yveltal's{{sup/6|Y}} role in the creation of the [[ultimate weapon]], as well as their role in the creation of life and destruction as a whole. After this, Lysandre will regularly communicate with the player through the [[Holo Caster]], monitoring their progress, and constantly showing his vision for a beautiful world as well as asking them to reconsider his proposal and join him on his cause.

Lysandre then appears after the player has received their seventh Badge. At this point, it is revealed through his Holo Caster message that he is the leader of [[Team Flare]], and that he plans to use the weapon which he spoke about earlier in order to eliminate anyone not part of Team Flare, surprising both the player and their neighbor. The player later confronts Lysandre in person at the lab beneath his café. He wishes to test the player's resolve, and is then battled and defeated. Admiring the player's resolve and strength, he instructs them that if they wish to stop him, he must get the elevator key from one of Team Flare's four scientists the player already met, while he retreats underground.

After the player obtains the Key and descends further into the lab, they meet with Lysandre who is speaking with a tall man behind bars known as AZ. Lysandre introduces AZ as someone who "shares the name of the previous King of Kalos", and the carrier the key of the ultimate weapon. After AZ tells the player the tragedy left by the ultimate weapon and asks them to stop the device from being used, Lysandre invites the player deeper underground if they wish to stop him. The player descends and meets Lysandre talking with [[Xerosic]]. Lysandre then tells the player to battle Xerosic, and if they are successful against the scientist, then they will stop their scheme. After the player defeats Xerosic, he has them push one of two buttons, one of which activates the weapon. However, pushing the correct one unfortunately does not stop Xerosic from unleashing the weapon on Kalos. (If the player chooses the blue button he will activate the weapon by remote control, otherwise the player activates the weapon.)

Lysandre is later found again at the site of the ultimate weapon in [[Geosenge Town]], where the player's rival questions him about his extreme measures to fix the world. He replies that those measures are the only possible solution because he thinks humans are inherently evil and greedy. He uses the analogy of them competing over their [[Mega Ring]] as an example that when something cannot be shared, people will fight for it, and some will be forced to live without it. As such, more tragedies are likely to happen, and, the only solution is to reduce the human population. When further questioned about Pokémon, he tearfully claims that Pokémon, while magnificent beings, are condemned to be used by humans as tools for war and theft. Therefore, he believes that Pokémon, for the greater good, are best annihilated.

He is battled again, as he simply seeks to stall for time against the player. The player defeats Lysandre once again, and he shows further admiration for the player's strength. He then challenges the player to travel deeper into the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]] to stop the weapon, despite his belief that it is already too late, but multiple members of Team Flare are waiting in ambush on the lower floors. After defeating them, the player reaches Xerneas or Yveltal. The legendary Pokémon is then battled and caught by the player, seemingly disabling the weapon. Lysandre returns wearing the Lysandre Machine, which is intended to drain Xerneas's{{sup/6|X}}/Yveltal's{{sup/6|Y}} energy back into the Ultimate Weapon, and he declares that he will take the legendary Pokémon back and complete his plan. Now wielding a Mega Ring of his own, he engages the player in a final battle.
[[File:Lysandre Loses XY.png|frame|Lysandre losing to the player]]
After being defeated for the third and final time, Lysandre expresses his disgust towards the fact that his beautiful world will never be a reality. The player and their friends attempt to reason with him, saying that if people cooperate together, a better world is possible, and they use the Mega Evolution achieved by him as proof of the bond he has with his Pokémon. He, however, rejects the idea as mere naivety and then attempts to 'force immortality on the player, their friends, and himself'{{sup/6|X}}/'kill everyone in the building'{{sup/6|Y}} and fires the ultimate weapon using what little power still remains. Hearing this, the player and their friends quickly leave, after which the blast from the weapon destroys the building and seemingly buries Lysandre and the HQ under rubble, putting an end to Team Flare's threat.

Later on in the game, an NPC in [[Snowbelle City]] who is an old friend of Lysandre mentions that Lysandre had noble intentions and did his best to help people in need, but was eventually convinced of humanity's stupidity, along with his own limitations which resulted in him becoming a misanthrope.

As revealed in {{G|Legends: Z-A}}, Lysandre survived his supposed demise in Pokémon X and Y thanks to {{Ga|Zygarde}}, but lost much of his memory in the process. Due to using the ultimate weapon, his body was altered in a similar way to AZ's, cursing him to live for three thousand years. As Zygarde had exhausted its power at the time, it tasked Lysandre to help it recover its strength in preparation for a [[Ange|future threat]] to Kalos.

==== {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} ====

===== [[Episode RR]] =====
An [[Pokémon multiverse|alternate universe]] version of Lysandre appears as a member of [[Team Rainbow Rocket]] and one of the second pair of bosses the player must face, along with [[Cyrus]]. Like the other {{cat|villainous team leaders}} in Team Rainbow Rocket, this Lysandre was summoned from a world where his plans succeeded. However, as he explains to the player, a bright light consumed him when he fired the [[ultimate weapon]] and was transported to the game's world. He has his {{tc|Team Rainbow Rocket Grunt}}s set up devices with red and blue buttons in his office within [[Team Rocket's Castle]]. Then, he subjects the player to the same choice the player in Kalos was subjected to, claiming that one button will activate the ultimate weapon and the other will open the path to [[Giovanni]]. However, no matter which button the player chooses, it will be the one that activates the weapon. Lysandre then tells the player that pushing the opposite button will prevent it from firing. However, in order to buy time for the weapon to fire, Lysandre battles the player, using Xerneas{{sup/7|US}}/Yveltal{{sup/7|UM}} as part of his team. When he is defeated, he allows the player to press the other button, ostensibly shutting down the ultimate weapon, as well as unlocking one of the two seals needed to reach Giovanni. Lysandre then wonders if things would have been different in his world if he had met a Trainer like the player. He then rejects that line of thought, resolving that he must bring about his beautiful world. He is later sent back to his own world by [[Colress]] off-screen.

==== {{g|Legends: Z-A}} ====
[[File:ZA L Credits.png|300px|thumb|L as seen in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}'s [[game credits|credits]]]]
Lysandre first meets the player under the pseudonym of "'''L'''". He warns the player about the coming crisis in Lumiose City and tells them that they must become a Trainer worthy of Zygarde's trust in order to stop it. Later on, he helps by gathering nearly all of Zygarde's Cells in order for it to assume its Complete Forme and defeat the rogue machine, [[Ange]].

After the player's first reward match in the Infinite [[Z-A Royale]], L comes to [[Hotel Z]] to speak with them about AZ, telling them about how the two had talked about the agony of being unable to die and about AZ's good and heinous deeds, including Ange. L surmises that Ange's influence resulted in more wild Pokémon gathering throughout Lumiose, wondering if it is right that people and Pokémon are kept at arm's length of each other with the city's holo-tech barriers. He wonders if people will find another way, stating that he looks forward to seeing what the people of Lumiose choose. L then explains that more of his memory returned following his conversation with the player in Lysandre Labs, having recalled the existence of Xerneas and Yveltal. He also informs them that since Ange was destroyed, Zygarde has not shown itself, likely due to it having exhausted its power and retreated somewhere to quietly recover. L requests the player to find Xerneas and Yveltal.

After the player catches Xerneas and Yveltal, L appears before the player outside Hotel Z. He explains that he knows that he tried to give too much to the world in the past, and because his good deeds saw no reward, he wallowed in despair and resentment and decided to take everything for himself instead. He explains how Zygarde seeks to correct excess and restore balance to the world, believing that to be the reason Zygarde rescued him. L then challenges the player to a battle. Reflecting on his mistakes, L expresses regret over having fired the ultimate weapon, and later escorts the player to the ruins of [[Prism Tower]] so that they can battle and catch Zygarde. L entrusts Zygarde to the player and gives them the [[Zygarde Cube]] to change its form. Declaring that he still wishes to create a more beautiful world, L nonetheless admits that his methods were flawed, and thus he sets off with the resolve to find a better way to realize his dreams.

Further information on Lysandre and Team Flare's original plan is disclosed during the player's visit to the ruins of Lysandre Labs. It is revealed that five years earlier, as Team Flare was preparing to execute Lysandre's agenda, he initially envisioned using both Ange and the ultimate weapon at the same time. However, because AZ's missing {{p|Floette}} was required to activate Ange, Lysandre could not do so, and he was forced to settle for using only the ultimate weapon.

====History====
=====Pre-series=====
As revealed in ''[[XY133|Coming Apart at the Dreams!]]'', Lysandre, much like in the games, once had a generous nature and would help those in need. However, after those he supported grew accustomed to his aid and turned greedy, he became disillusioned with the human race, and decided to "restart" the world by wiping out most of its population.

=====[[Mega Evolution Specials]]=====
[[File:Lysandre anime.png|thumb|250px|Lysandre in ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'']]
Lysandre debuted in ''[[XYS01|Mega Evolution Special I]]''. Though he was not identified as the caller at the time, he contacted [[Alain]] via the [[Holo Caster]], directing him to where a new Mega Stone could be found. He also was seen observing the power of Alain's Mega {{TP|Alain|Charizard}} X during its battle with [[Siebold]]'s Mega {{p|Blastoise}}.
[[File:Team Flare Scientists Young.png|thumb|left|250px|A younger Lysandre]]
In ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', Lysandre traveled to [[Hoenn]], intervened in Alain's battle with {{Steven}}, and introduced Alain and Steven properly to each other. It was revealed that in the past, he defeated Alain in a battle over an [[Ampharosite]], then took Alain to [[Lysandre Labs]] and recruited him to work in a project to harness the energy of Mega Evolution for peaceful purposes. Lysandre was also the one who awarded Alain his Mega Ring and Charizardite X, though he asked Alain to not tell Professor Sycamore of the research, fearing that people with bad intentions would bring harm to him in order to obtain it. Later, he traveled with Alain, [[Mairin]], and Steven to a ruin, where they uncovered an ancient [[Giant Rock]]. However, his research on the Giant Rock accidentally summoned {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (XY series)|Rayquaza}}, who destroyed the area. After the encounter with Rayquaza, Lysandre discovered a similar energy reading to the Giant Rock near [[Rustboro City]], and asked Alain to go there and investigate. He also covertly ordered Alain to keep a close eye on Steven, for the [[Hoenn League]] {{pkmn|Champion}} had precious information on Mega Evolution.

In ''[[XYS03|Mega Evolution Special III]]'', Lysandre gave instructions to Alain and Steven. After Mega Rayquaza defeated both [[Primal Reversion|Primal]] {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (XY series)|Groudon}} and Primal {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (XY series)|Kyogre}}, he had the Giant Rock, which had reappeared during the battle of the Legendary Pokémon, taken away with his submarine for further studies.

In ''[[XYS04|Mega Evolution Special IV]]'', Lysandre observed Alain's battles against ten Mega Evolution Trainers while his scientists researched the Giant Rock. After [[Chespie]], Mairin's {{p|Chespin}}, who had interfered with the experiments performed on a {{p|Zygarde}} Core, was hospitalized, Lysandre told the victorious Alain that he had to continue gather data on Mega Evolution if Chespie was to recover. He was also shown to be close to Malva, who served as Alain's final opponent.

====={{aniseries|XY}}=====
Lysandre has a major antagonistic role in [[S19|Pokémon the Series: XYZ]], first making appearances in ''[[XY094|From A to Z!]]'' and ''[[XY102|Meeting at Terminus Cave!]]'', where he was studying [[Squishy]] alongside [[Xerosic]].

In ''[[XY106|A Meeting of Two Journeys!]]'', Lysandre was contacted by Alain via the Holo Caster, who wanted to know if Mairin's Chespie's condition had improved or not. Later, he reappeared in [[XY107|the next episode]], overseeing the operation to capture [[Z2]] alongside Xerosic. At the end of the episode, he received Z2.

Lysandre reappeared in ''[[XY118|Championing a Research Battle!]]'' and ''[[XY119|A Full-Strength Battle Surprise!]]'', where he received mission reports from Xerosic.

In ''[[XY129|Kalos League Passion with a Certain Flare!]]'', Lysandre was talking to a man inside a building at the [[Lumiose Conference]]. He soon got a call on a Holo Caster that an {{tc|Team Flare Admin|Admin}} was holding, from Xerosic, who was in the front seat of a truck that was just outside the [[Lumiose Gym]]. Later on at night, he met {{Ash}} for the first time and discussed the capability of [[Ash's Greninja]] to take on its different form in battle. After his conversation with him, he was shown with an annoyed expression, before turning towards the Lumiose Gym and smirked. Lysandre later talked to Mairin after she ran up to him and he put on a happy expression. The next day, Lysandre was seated in a private viewing box inside the Lumiose Conference's stadium with a glass window, along with Mairin and the same Admin, and they all watched as Ash and Alain each walked towards their respective sides of the battlefield in the Lumiose Conference's stadium, for the final round of the Conference.
[[File:Lysandre Machine anime.png|thumb|250px|Wearing the Lysandre Machine in Pokémon the Series: XYZ]]
In ''[[XY130|Finals Not for the Faint-Hearted!]]'' and ''[[XY131|Down to the Fiery Finish!]]'', Lysandre watched Ash and Alain's battle in the finals of the Lumiose Conference. Towards the end of the latter episode, his true egotistical, narcissistic nature is revealed as he uses the power of Z2 to bring the whole of Kalos into his control, taking over Lumiose City and subsequently the Lumiose Conference, which had just been concluded.

In ''[[XY132|A Towering Takeover!]]'', Lysandre revealed himself as the leader of Team Flare to a captured Ash. He also televised a message to the citizens of Kalos about his plan for creating a new, beautiful world for Team Flare.

In ''Coming Apart at the Dreams!'', Lysandre explained his motivations and attempted to control Ash and Greninja the same way he did with Zygarde, so that Ash could become the guide of the new world. Ash, however, defied Lysandre and used the [[Bond Phenomenon]] to break free. Following this turn of events, Lysandre equipped his machine and started a fight with Ash and the defecting Alain using his Pyroar and his Shiny Mega Gyarados. Pyroar was defeated through a joint attack by {{AP|Noivern}}, {{AP|Hawlucha}}, and {{AP|Pikachu}}.

In ''[[XY134|The Right Hero for the Right Job!]]'', Lysandre defeated the majority of Ash's team. He was surprised when Malva appeared to help Alain and Ash, but nonetheless remained confident even after Clemont and Bonnie freed the two Zygarde under his control.

In ''[[XY135|Rocking Kalos Defenses!]]'', Lysandre was finally beaten by Ash and Alain. Refusing to surrender, Lysandre seemingly killed himself by jumping off the tower. It was afterwards revealed that Lysandre had planned for the Giant Rock to transform into a copy of Zygarde, which would engulf the [[Anistar City]] Sundial and release enough energy to wipe out all life on the planet.

He made one final appearance in ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]''. After the Giant Rock was temporarily stopped by Ash, Alain, Steven, Malva, [[Diantha]], and all of the Kalos [[Gym Leader]]s and [[Chespie]] was freed from it's control, Lysandre appears and revives the Giant Rock himself using a control device, announcing he still intends to destroy the world even if it means he has to die too. He lost control of the Rock after the device was destroyed by Ash and Alain, and was defeated entirely by Squishy and Z2 after they transformed into Zygarde Complete Forme and destroyed the Giant Rock. The explosion from Zygarde's {{m|Core Enforcer}} engulfs Lysandre, leaving his final fate unclear.

Lysandre appeared in ''[[PG16|The Beauty Eternal]]'', where he announced the release of the [[Holo Caster]]. In the process, he was depicted as a popular and successful businessman. He was later seen discussing with [[Diantha]] about the concept of eternal beauty. Afterwards, he was interviewed by some reporters over his involvement with some secret plans, but he didn't reveal any information. Lysandre was then seen at the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]], conducting experiments on {{p|Yveltal}} in the hopes of creating a more beautiful world.

Lysandre appeared in ''[[PE03|The Visionary]]'', where he was shown battling {{ga|Calem}} and his {{p|Xerneas}} inside the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]]. After being easily defeated, he briefly recalled his conversations with [[Professor Sycamore]] and [[Diantha]] about mortality and beauty. He then fired the [[ultimate weapon]] in an attempt to force immortality on himself, Calem, {{ga|Serena}}, and [[Shauna]]. The weapon fired as the Trainers escaped, leaving his fate unknown. One week later, [[Malva]] discussed his legacy on the [[Holo Caster]].

===GOTCHA!===
Lysandre briefly appeared as a silhouette in [[GOTCHA!]].

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:Lysandre Malva Adventures.png|thumb|200px|Lysandre in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
[[File:Lysandre Machine Adventures.png|thumb|left|200px|Lysandre wearing the Lysandre Machine in Pokémon Adventures]]
====={{MangaArc|X & Y}}=====
Lysandre debuted in ''[[PS552|They Have a Flare for a Li'l Kanga-Napping]]''. He was first seen in [[Professor Sycamore]]'s lab, watching a video of the battle between [[Xerxer|Xerneas]] and {{p|Yveltal}} in [[Vaniville Town]]. He then asked for a copy of the footage for further study.

In ''[[PS558|What Does Charmander Do When It Dozes]]'', Professor Sycamore sent {{adv|Trevor}} and his friends to [[Lysandre Labs|Lysandre Café]] to get repairs for Trevor's [[Holo Caster]]. The group was introduced to Lysandre, but Trevor became suspicious of the man after seeing his silhouette in a photo taken during the Vaniville incident. Noting Trevor's strange behavior, Lysandre asked to see the photo, even using his Pokémon to surround the group when Trevor refused. [[Diantha]] arrived and used her [[Mega Evolution|Mega]] {{TP|Diantha|Gardevoir}} to defend Trevor's group. Lysandre backed off and left to answer a call from [[Xerosic]], who had discovered the location of Xerneas's tree form.

In ''[[PS577|Quilladin Stands]]'', Lysandre returned to the [[Team Flare Secret HQ]] after Xerneas's tree form had been successfully transported. He received the Lysandre Machine, which [[Clemont]] was forced to build, and a Mega Ring, which had its [[Key Stone]] stolen from [[Korrina]]. Lysandre and Xerosic began draining Xerneas of its life energy to fuel the [[ultimate weapon]]. {{adv|X}} later broke into the building to put an end to [[Team Flare]]'s ambitions. He found the ultimate weapon's control room and confronted Lysandre, who used his Mega Ring to Mega Evolve his {{p|Gyarados}}. During their battle, X had his [[Élec]] use its {{a|Lightning Rod}} to pull electricity from the ultimate weapon's absorber into its tail, draining the machine of its power. This allowed Xerneas to awaken from its slumber and revert back to normal.

In ''[[PS580|Flabébé Blooms]]'', Trevor, {{adv|Tierno}}, {{adv|Shauna}}, [[Clemont]], [[Emma]], and [[AZ]] arrived at the control room, where they found X had already been defeated. Trevor, Tierno, and Shauna tried removing the ultimate weapon's key but were unable to pull it out in time before it fired. To Lysandre's frustration, the combined efforts of X and his friends successfully weakened the ultimate weapon, preventing it from taking any innocent lives. AZ stayed behind to allow Xerneas to escape back to the surface with X and the others. When Malva attempted to confront X's group with Yveltal, Lysandre ordered a ceasefire due to it and Xerneas being evenly matched. Xerneas confirmed this and retreated, taking X and the others with it.

In ''[[PS582|Pinsir Glares]]'', Team Flare was revealed to have blamed the destruction caused by the ultimate weapon on X's friends and the Gym Leaders. They moved operations to the [[Pokémon Village]] to keep a low profile. When Xerosic later discovered the stones lining {{rt|10|Kalos}} are an older form of the absorber, Team Flare began using them to drain the life energy of the Pokémon living at the village. These actions earned Team Flare the anger of {{adv|Mewtwo}}, who protected the Pokémon Village. In ''[[PS590|Yveltal Steals]]'', X and {{adv|Blue}} found Lysandre in battle with Mewtwo at the village. Hoping to have Mewtwo weakened enough for capture, Lysandre tried to trick it into attacking X and Blue, only for {{adv|Blaine}} to arrive and Mega Evolve Mewtwo into its Y form.

In ''[[PS591|Mewtwo Angered]]'', Lysandre summoned [[Emma|Essentia]] and used a device to control her like a puppet. By talking into the device, Essentia would repeat Lysandre's words, allowing him to command the {{adv|Zygarde}} she had caught earlier. While Blaine and Mewtwo kept Zygarde still, X defeated Essentia, uncovering her true identity as his friend Emma. With some words of encouragement from X and [[Cassius]], Emma betrayed Lysandre, but was attacked by his Gyarados before she could command Zygarde. Lysandre took Zygarde's [[Poké Ball]], only for {{adv|Y}} to arrive and take his Mega Ring. Although he was angered by this, Lysandre made an announcement to the entire Kalos region, informing the public of Team Flare's plan to destroy everything with the ultimate weapon. By borrowing Key Stones from his allies, X was able to activate Mega Evolution for his entire team at once.

In ''[[PS593|Xerneas Gives]]'', Lysandre used Zygarde to battle X's Mega-Evolved team. As the battle went on, X's friends noticed Zygarde's body was breaking apart due to Xerneas and Yveltal reverting to their tree and cocoon forms. Once they fully reverted, X had his team launch one final attack, fully separating Zygarde. Malva attempted to save Lysandre from falling, only for both to land onto the rubble below. Heavily injured, Lysandre weakly asked Malva why the ultimate weapon had not yet been fired. Afterward, Blaine revealed Lysandre was alive, but had sustained severe injuries to his spinal cord.

====={{MangaArc|Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon}}=====
Lysandre reappeared in a flashback as a silhouette when Sina and Dexio were explaining Zygarde's presence in Alola.

When X attacked the Team Flare Secret HQ, Lysandre used Gyarados to battle him and Mega Evolves him. With Lysandre's Mega Ring, which had his Key Stone stolen from Korrina, Gyarados can Mega Evolve into Mega Gyarados. He lost the ability to Mega Evolve after Lysandre's Mega Ring was taken.

After Emma was freed from Lysandre's control, Lysandre had Gyarados attack Emma so that he may take Zygarde's Poké Ball, giving him full control over it. Once [[Xerxer]] and {{p|Yveltal}} reverted to their dormant forms, Zygarde had no reason to stay, so its body began breaking apart. X's Mega-Evolved team used a combined attack to fully break apart Zygarde, leading to Lysandre's defeat.}}

==Trivia==
[[File:Parfum Palace Portrait.png|thumb|200px|Portrait of one of Lysandre's ancestors]]
* Both [[Parfum Palace]] and the [[Lumiose Museum]] contain a painting of the king who built the palace. It's revealed in {{g|Legends: Z-A}} that the aforementioned king was suspected to be a descendant of [[AZ]]'s younger brother, and by extension, an ancestor of Lysandre.
** Additionally, the Lysandre Machine bears a striking resemblance to the bug-shaped accessory worn by the king.
* Lysandre shares three Pokémon with [[Cyrus]], another leader of a [[Team Galactic|villainous team]]: {{p|Murkrow}}, {{p|Honchkrow}}, and {{p|Gyarados}}. Their goals are also similar; both involve trying to wipe out everyone for some purpose and using [[Legendary Pokémon]] to achieve it.
** [[Xerosic]] and [[Mable]], two of his top scientists, possess a {{p|Crobat}} and a {{p|Houndoom}} and {{p|Weavile}}, respectively; all Pokémon that Cyrus had.
* In {{aniseries|PTS}}, the Lysandre Machine's functions are different: the "bugs" attached to the backpack piece are able to shoot beams of Mega Evolution energy, while the gauntlet is used to control the [[Giant Rock]]. Additionally, the pieces of the suit are capable of flight and can carry Lysandre into the air while he is wearing them.
* Lysandre's Gyarados knows {{m|Iron Head}} and {{m|Outrage}}, which it cannot learn in {{g|X and Y}}. The only way for Gyarados to know these moves in Pokémon X and Y is through [[Move Tutor]]s in {{v2|Platinum}}, {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} and {{2v2|Black|White|2}} before being transferred through [[Pokémon Bank]], or through a Move Tutor in {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, the latter of which wasn't available at the time of X and Y's release.
* The background story of Lysandre told by an NPC in Snowbelle City is similar to the manga ''{{wp|Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind}}'', where a king, who wants to save humanity and wanting peace for his peasants, eventually realizes their stupidity and grows to hate them, eventually becoming a tyrant.
* Lysandre's hairstyle was stylized to somewhat resemble a [[List of Pokémon with gender differences#Pyroar|male]] {{p|Pyroar}}'s mane, one of his Pokémon.
* Lysandre is the first villainous team leader to debut in a special episode of the {{pkmn|animated series}}, and also the first to have a [[Shiny Pokémon]].
** In ''Pokémon the Series'', Lysandre is not Professor Sycamore's former pupil. Instead, the two only meet for the first time during the events of the {{aniseries|XY|''XY'' series}} special, ''[[XYS04|Mega Evolution Special IV]]''.
* When Lysandre is defeated for the last time in X and Y, the {{player}} performs a unique victory pose.
* Lysandre's visor can be seen on his desk in [[Team Rocket's Castle]], though he does not wear it at any point as a member of [[Team Rainbow Rocket]].
* Lysandre is the first villainous team leader in the [[core series]] who never wears his team's insignia on his clothing.
** He is also the only member of Team Flare who does not regularly wear any sort of eyewear, however he does wear a visor when using the Lysandre Machine.
* Lysandre is the first villainous team leader in ''Pokémon the Series'' whom {{Ash}} defeated in a battle.
** He was also the first villainous team leader in the animated series since {{an|Giovanni}} to be shown to use Pokémon of his own, instead of just controlling one or more Legendary Pokémon.

'''Meyer''' (Japanese: '''リモーネ''' ''Limone'') is a recurring character in {{aniseries|XY}}. He is the father of {{an|Clemont}} and {{an|Bonnie}}. He owns an electrical goods store, with his family home on the upper stories in [[Lumiose City]]. Meyer is also the identity of '''Blaziken Mask''' (Japanese: '''バシャーモかめん''' ''Bursyamo Mask'').

==History==
[[File:Blaziken Mask.png|thumb|left|200px|As Blaziken Mask]]
Meyer debuted as Blaziken Mask in ''[[XY002|Lumiose City Pursuit!]]''. He was first seen standing on a rooftop in [[Lumiose City]] after his {{p|Blaziken}} saved {{Ash}} from falling off of the [[Lumiose Gym|Prism Tower]]. The two left by leaping away.

He appeared in person for the first time in ''[[XY009|Clemont's Got a Secret!]]'', where he was riding a motorcycle with his {{p|Ampharos}} in [[Lumiose City]]. After surprising his two children, Clemont and Bonnie introduced him as their father and the manager of an electrical appliance store. Learning that his two children have new friends, he was moved and started crying. While Clemont introduced him to {{an|Serena}}, Meyer praised his son for finding "a beautiful girlfriend." Before leaving, he reminded Clemont that strictness is not enough for one to become a Trainer and unintentionally revealed to {{Ash}} and Serena that Clemont is also the Lumiose [[Gym Leader]]. At the end of the episode, Clemont revealed to him that the [[Clembot]] would temporarily serve as the Gym Leader, while he and Bonnie would travel with Ash and Serena to become stronger. Deeply moved, he hugged his two children and called for a party to celebrate, allowing them to continue on their journey. While the children were sleeping, Blaziken Mask leaped off the buildings in Lumiose City.

In [[XY010|the next episode]], Ash and Clemont passed by Meyer and Ampharos as they pursued {{TRT}}. He arrived as Blaziken Mask using his Blaziken to save Ash, {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{an|Serena}}, {{an|Clemont}}, {{an|Bonnie}}, {{an|Professor Sycamore}}, and {{TP|Clemont|Chespin}} from Team Rocket's mecha before the two leap away. He was seen in a flashback in ''[[XY048|A Campus Reunion]]''.

In ''[[XY066|Confronting the Darkness!]]'', Meyer reunited with Bonnie and Clemont once more. He came to Lumiose City's police station after the Clembot had been arrested by [[Officer Jenny]]. When [[Alexa]] appeared and she told the group that she had been investigating the crimes the Clembot had been framed for, she mentioned that Blaziken Mask had some involvement in it. Hearing this, Meyer became visibly nervous. That night, he changed into Blaziken Mask and hurried to the [[Lumiose Museum]], where Ash and his friends were battling the culprit actually responsible for the Clembot's crimes. At the spot, he had his Blaziken defeat Team Rocket, who had just stolen the Clembot and the [[Dark Clembot]], the robot responsible for the crimes. After this, he watched his son and the Clembot battle the Dark Clembot and its creator [[Belmondo]]. When Belmondo was defeated by Clemont and arrested by Officer Jenny, he asked Ash and Clemont about their Gym Battle, and then quickly left, wishing them good luck with their battle. In [[XY067|the next episode]], Meyer watched the Gym Battle between Ash and his son.

In ''[[XY068|Garchomp's Mega Bond!]]'', he reappeared as Blaziken Mask. His true identity was discovered and known by {{an|Professor Sycamore}} by the end of the episode.

In ''[[XY129|Kalos League Passion with a Certain Flare!]]'', he, along with Clembot, provided some food to Ash and {{ashfr}} along with [[Sawyer]] and their Pokémon. Meyer next appeared during ''[[XY131|Down to the Fiery Finish!]]'', doing some work on a roof with Clembot listening to the match with [[Alain]] and Ash on the radio.

He reappeared as Blaziken Mask in ''[[XY132|A Towering Takeover!]]'', where he joined the fight against [[Team Flare]]. He protested against Clemont and Bonnie getting involved in the conflict, but relented when he saw how much they cared for their Gym and Squishy, respectively.

In ''[[XY133|Coming Apart at the Dreams!]]'', Meyer saved Bonnie from some rampant vines that were being generated by [[Z2]] and tried to stop her from confronting Squishy.

In ''[[XY134|The Right Hero for the Right Job!]]'', Meyer protected Bonnie from a rampant Squishy. He initially tried to prevent her from confronting the mind-controlled Order Pokémon, but once more relented upon seeing how much Bonnie cared for Squishy. When it seemed Zygarde was going to attack Bonnie anyway, even after she sang her song for it, Meyer was prepared to use his body as a living shield for Bonnie, but Squishy snapped out of its mind control and redirected the attack.

In ''[[XY135|Rocking Kalos Defenses!]]'' and ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]'', Meyer and Blaziken were among those trying to stop the [[Giant Rock]]. After an attack, his secret identity was accidentally revealed to his children.

In ''[[XY137|Battling With a Clean Slate!]]'', Meyer helped repair the Lumiose Gym. Later, he refereed the Gym battle between Clembot and [[Alvin]]. He also reappeared in ''[[XY138|The First Day of the Rest of Your Life!]]''.

He reappeared in flashbacks in ''[[XY140|Till We Compete Again!]]''.

==Character==
Meyer was shown to be knowledgeable about the mechanics of Pokémon battling as seen during the Gym battle with Ash and Clemont when he explained the effects of moves and {{AP|Goodra}}'s {{a|Hydration}} activating during rain.

As a father, he desires the best for his children, and as such, was very supportive of Clemont and Bonnie's wish to travel with Ash and Serena through the Kalos region. He displays immense happiness for his son whenever he matures, becoming very emotional, such as after Clemont concluded his battle with Ash at the Lumiose Gym. Even though he was deeply concerned for them during Team Flare's attack on Lumiose City, he allowed Clemont and Bonnie to go save his Gym and Squishy, respectively, because he understood how much they cared for them. The depth of Meyer's love for his children was shown when he was willing to use his own body as a living shield to protect Bonnie.

Being the identity of the masked hero Blaziken Mask, he holds a strong sense of justice, putting himself at risk to help others like Professor Sycamore, Ash, Clemont, Serena, and Bonnie. Despite this, he does not want to put them at risk when necessary, as seen during Team Flare's attack on Lumiose City.

{{-}}

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

==Trivia==
* Simisage and its pre-evolved form are the only non-[[first partner Pokémon]] that have {{a|Overgrow}} as an Ability.

===Origin===
Simisage appears to be based on a {{wp|monkey}} and a {{wp|tree}}; the fact that it is based on both may mean that it might be based on the legends of {{wp|Monkey tree phenomenon|monkey trees}} or possibly a visual pun on {{wp|Colobinae|leaf monkeys}}.

Its hairstyle may have been inspired by the ''{{wp|bōsōzoku}}'' or {{wp|Yankee#In other countries|yankee}} subculture. Its {{wp|pompadour (hairstyle)|pompadour}}-like hair, common in the 50s, contrasts with the hippie-like hairstyle of {{p|Simipour}}, common in the late 60s and the 70s. During the 1950s, the hairstyle had become a staple of many {{wp|Greaser (subculture)|Greaser}} gangs and was used by early {{wp|rock and roll}} stars such as {{wp|Elvis Presley}}. The early bōsōzoku took inspiration from American greaser culture.

It, along with its two contemporaries, seems to be inspired by the {{wp|three wise monkeys}} motif; with its thumb up, Simisage represents "speak no evil".

====Name origin====
Simisage may be a combination of ''{{wp|simian}}'' and ''{{wp|Salvia officinalis|sage}}'' (an herb). ''Sage'' can also refer to a wise person, relating to the "{{wp|three wise monkeys}}" motif of the [[elemental monkeys]].

Yanakkie may be a combination of 柳 ''yanagi'' ({{wp|willow}}), 野菜 ''yasai'' (vegetables), 菜 ''na'' (greens), and ''{{wp|monkey}}''.

Plus Move

2025-10-19T00:11:38Z

TohjoFalls: /* Mechanic */ capitalization mistake

[[File:Plus Moves icon.png|right]]
'''Plus Moves''' (Japanese: '''ワザプラス''' ''Plus Move'') are the signature mechanic of [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]] that boosts the [[power]] of any [[move]] it is used on, and is comparable in power to the [[Move mastery|strong style]] from [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]].

== Mechanic ==
Plus Moves are usable after obtaining the [[Mega Ring]], following [[Main Mission]] 9.

Upon use, Plus Moves use one gauge of [[Mega Energy]] if the move is successfully executed.

A Plus Move can be activated by pressing the '''<big>+</big>''' button while selecting a move. These moves do significantly more damage to [[Rogue Mega Evolution|Rogue Mega Evolved]] Pokémon. Any move used by a [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolved]] Pokémon will be a Plus Move, and will not use a gauge of Mega Energy when executing said move. Plus Moves can hit through [[protection]]. [[Status move]]s upgraded to Plus Moves have their effects enhanced or extended.

Only moves with a '''Plus Move mark''' can be used as Plus Moves.

A move learned by a Pokémon can be upgraded to a Plus Move in two ways;

* If the Pokémon naturally learns the move, it will become a Plus Move at a later level.
* If the Pokémon only learns the move through a [[TM]], you can upgrade the move to a Plus Move by talking to Josée at the [[Justice Dojo]], in exchange for a [[Seed of Mastery]] after defeating Josée at the start of [[Main Mission]] 19.

'''Angie''' (Japanese: '''アオイ''' ''Aoi'') is a recurring character in {{aniseries|DP}}. She is a Pokémon caretaker at the [[Solaceon Town]] {{pkmn|Day Care}}, which is owned by her {{TP|Angie|parents}}. She first appeared in ''[[DP088|Camping It Up!]]''.

==History==
Angie debuted in ''[[DP088|Camping It Up!]]'' as one of the students of [[Professor Rowan]]'s {{pkmn|Summer Academy}}. Along with {{Ash}}, {{an|Dawn}}, and {{an|Brock}}, Angie was a member of the {{DL|Pokémon Summer Academy|Red Team}}. Despite that, she developed a [[rival]]ry with Ash right from the start, when the two went to pick a Pokémon for the first activity. Not realizing that Angie is a girl, Ash ignored the "ladies first" custom and his manners angered Angie a little.

[[File:Angie and friends.png|thumb|left|220px|Angie with her friends]]
For the first activity, which involved [[Friendship|bonding]] and {{pkmn|training}} a {{pkmn2|rental}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and then using it in {{pkmn|battle}} against another student's Pokémon, Angie was assigned a {{p|Monferno}}. Angie initially had trouble dealing with the {{pkmn|category|Playful Pokémon}}, but upon witnessing Ash's unorthodox training style, she had an idea on how to get along with Monferno. After spending some time with it, she faced off against Ash, who was using a {{p|Raichu}}. The two had a fierce battle, which ended in a tie.

During the events of ''[[DP090|Ghoul Daze!]]'', Ash saved Angie from being sucked into the [[Ghost World|spirit world]] by a [[ghost girl]], and from that point on, she developed a crush on him. In the [[DP091|next episode]], she got embarrassed when Ash tried to shake hands with her and she ran away. She also blushed later in the same episode after Ash rescued her from falling off a cliff.

Angie and Ash competed fiercely during the [[Pokémon Triathlon]]. However, it was Ash who crossed the finish line first with her in close second. The night before they left the summer school, they vowed to meet each other again. It was also revealed that she has been at the Summer Academy several times before.

In ''[[DP098|If the Scarf Fits, Wear It!]]'', it was revealed that her {{TP|Angie|parents}} had gone on a business trip and left her in charge of the [[Solaceon Town]] {{pkmn|Day Care}}. Angie was eager to impress her parents and ended up training a {{p|Lickitung}} a bit much, to the point of teaching it {{m|Rollout}}. This caused it to [[Evolution|evolve]] into {{p|Lickilicky}}, something which goes against Day Care rules. Luckily for her, the {{OBP|Trainer|DP098}} of the Licking Pokémon was glad with the Evolution, as he did not have enough time to train and evolve his Pokémon.

==Character==
Angie shares many personality traits with {{Ash}}, including a love of food and sleeping during class. She also developed a fierce rivalry with him, and both {{pkmn|battle}}d their respective Pokémon in {{pkmn|training}}, resulting in a tie. Together, they also got reprimanded by {{prof|Rowan}} and [[Yuzo|his aide]] several times for being troublemakers, usually because Angie said or did something to make Ash mad.

Angie was surprised when she discovered Ash's training style (encouraging a Pokémon after it had attacked him) and quickly adapted it into a form of training with her Monferno which, somewhat like [[Maylene]], involved her dodging Monferno's {{m|Ember}} and {{m|Mach Punch}} attacks.

Shinx was originally used against {{AP|Pikachu}} in a battle, which started when Angie and {{Ash}} got into a quarrel. However, like their Trainers, Shinx and Pikachu soon became friends.

In ''[[DP089|Up Close and Personable!]]'', Shinx got hypnotized by the light from a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Lumineon}} and wandered off. Ash and {{ashfr}} helped Angie to get Shinx back.

Shinx also helps Angie out at the Solaceon Day Care Center.

Shinx's known moves are {{m|Spark}}, {{m|Thunder Fang}}, {{m|Crunch}}, and {{m|Quick Attack}}.}}

Eventually, Angie gained its respect and it battled hard against the Pokémon Ash had selected, a {{p|Raichu}}. However, it ended in a draw.

Monferno's known moves are {{m|Ember}}, {{m|Fury Swipes}}, {{m|Flame Wheel}}, and {{m|Mach Punch}}.}}

Knowing she'd be in big trouble for evolving another Trainer's Pokémon, and as Lickilicky refused to be kept inside its {{i|Poké Ball}}, Angie hid Lickilicky in a cave. However, Lickilicky escaped and people began believing it was a Scarf Monster due to the scarf Angie made it wear. {{TRT}} attempted to capture it even after learning it wasn't a monster but Angie was able to expertly command Lickilicky and fought Team Rocket off. Although Angie's parents were upset with her for evolving Lickitung, its Trainer couldn't be happier about what had happened as he couldn't be bothered to evolve it himself. As a result, she avoided any punishment from her parents.

Lickilicky's known moves are {{m|Rollout}}, {{m|Wrap}}, and {{m|Slam}}.}}

{{Incomplete|needs=What do Status Plus Moves do, do they have any other effect compared to their normal variant?}}
[[File:Plus Moves icon.png|thumb]]
Plus Moves are the signature mechanic of [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]] that boosts the [[power]] of any [[move]] it is used on, and is comparable in power to the [[Strong style]] from [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]]. They use one gauge of [[Mega Energy]] if a move is successfully used with it, and it can be activated by pressing + while selecting a move. These moves do significantly more damage to [[Rogue Mega Evolution|Rogue Mega Evolved]] Pokémon. Any move used by a [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolved]] Pokémon will be a Plus Move, and will not use a gauge of Mega Energy when executing said move.

A move learned by a Pokémon can be upgraded to a Plus move in two ways;

* If the Pokémon naturally learns the move, it will become a Plus Move at a later level.
* If the Pokémon only learns the move through a [[TM]], you can upgrade the move to a Plus Move by talking to Josée at the [[Justice Dojo]], in exchange for a [[Seed of Mastery]] after defeating Josée at the start of [[Main Mission]] 19.

TohjoFalls: trivia

[[File:PLZA Mega Crystals.png|thumb|Three types of Mega Crystal; Corner, Small, and Large, from left to right respectively.]]
'''Mega Crystals''' (Japanese: '''メガ結晶''' ''Mega Crystals'') are a form of interactable object in [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]] that appear as pink crystals sticking out of a rocky base.

They can be targeted by the user, and can be destroyed using any [[Damage category|damaging]] [[Move|Pokémon move]]. Upon destruction, they drop [[Mega Shard]]s.

They reappear periodically across [[Lumiose City]] on the ground, walls, roofs, chimneys and such, as a byproduct of the Mega Energy that is let loose by the reactivated [[Ange]], much like [[Rogue Mega Evolution]].

At least one Mega Crystal has to be destroyed to progress in the game, this being the Mega Crystal that has grown beneath the ladder right besides [[Hotel Z]].

== Trivia ==

* While all Mega Crystals reappear periodically after destruction, there is one singular exception; the Mega Crystal that appears on the ladder next to Hotel Z will not reappear once destroyed.

'''AZ's Floette''' is an Eternal Flower Floette befriended by [[AZ]]. Unlike other {{p|Floette}}, she has a unique color scheme and holds a flower known as the Eternal Flower. She plays a major part in the storyline of [[Pokémon X and Y]] and [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]].

While it is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, Eternal Flower Floette can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Floette''' using the [[Floettite]]. Mega Floette was introduced in Pokémon Legends: Z-A.

==In the games==
===History===

==== Background ====

==== In Pokemon X and Y ====
In [[Pokémon X and Y]], Floette is first mentioned by AZ when the player initially encounters him on {{rt|13|Kalos}}, where he mutters to himself about "the flower Pokémon".

It is later revealed in AZ's story of the history of the Kalos region that Floette was given to AZ by his late mother and was taken by force by the soldiers fighting in the war. Floette was sent to fight in a war that broke out in the Kalos region, in which she subsequently died. Out of grief, AZ built the [[ultimate weapon]] to revive her, and succeeded, making her immortal. She left him after realizing that the life energy of other Pokémon was used to bring her back to life.

Floette's last appearance is during the parade arranged by [[Professor Sycamore]] in [[Lumiose City]]. After AZ battles the player and is liberated from his torment, she floats down from the sky and finally returns to him. Both Floette and AZ are not seen after this.

==== In Pokémon Legends: Z-A ====
In Pokémon Legends: Z-A

=== Obtainability ===
Game data exists for the Eternal Flower Floette in the Generation VI and [[Generation VII|VII]] games. Eternal Flower Floette's stats are notably higher than a regular Floette and sit more closely to those of {{p|Florges}}. Unlike a regular Floette however, she cannot evolve or breed (and is unaffected by the [[Eviolite]]). She is in the {{egg|Undiscovered}} [[Egg Group]]. She also has her own signature move, {{m|Light of Ruin}}, which she learns at level 50. Her cry is different from a regular Floette. She also has a base experience yield of 243.

In [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]], Eternal Flower Floette was finally made obtainable, being obtained through defeating [[Urbain]]/[[Taunie]] in a Infinite Z-A Royale Reward Match, after the credit roll.

==Biology==
;Eternal Flower Floette
[[File:AZ's Floette Resurrected.png|left|250px|thumb|[[AZ]]'s Floette being resurrected]]
Eternal Flower Floette, the Floette who befriended [[AZ]], is different from a normal Floette. Her tail and eyebrows are blue and the rings around her ears are red. Her flower is different as well and no longer blooms anywhere. She has six petals instead of five: three that are big and three that are smaller. The stem is red and leafless, and the stigma is black and conical. The flower's underside is black and the top of the three big petals are patterned red and black.

This flower contains terrifying energy, but despite this, Floette still swings the flower around innocently. The flower Floette holds no longer exists in the present day, even though one similar to it can be found in [[Sootopolis City]]. 3,000 years ago, this Floette was resurrected by AZ using the [[Ultimate weapon]], which was powered by [[Infinity Energy]]. The power of the machine also granted the Floette eternal life, allowing her to still be alive in the present day. According to AZ, it is theorized that the ultimate weapon prevents this Floette from evolving; instead, it gained the ability to Mega Evolve. Eternal Flower Floette is said to hold an incredible power.

The Eternal Flower Floette is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Light of Ruin}}.
{{spoilers}}
;Mega Floette
Eternal Flower Floette can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into Mega Floette.

The Eternal Flower Floette has undergone a significant transformation after absorbing all the Mega Evolution energy. Its flower has doubled in size and is now connected to Mega Floette through a large red stem that attaches to the heart-shaped tip of the flower, which resembles three tied ropes. The stem features a central portion with three smaller sections, leading to three large black flower petals with blue tips.

Thanks to Mega Evolution, the Eternal Flower has developed a mind of its own, allowing it to either defend Mega Floette or attack enemies. Mega Floette possesses enough strength to carry a human while flying within a rainbow circle. Additionally, it has the ability to influence and control the [[Ange]] machine.

AZ's Floette appeared in the final [[Pokémon Generations]] episode ''[[PG18|The Redemption]]'', where she was a Pokémon AZ befriended 3000 years ago. One day, Floette perished after being forced to participate in a war. Out of grief, AZ built a machine to revive his fallen friend, but Floette left him after learning that he sacrificed the lives of many Pokémon to power the machine. She later returned to AZ.
{{-}}

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
[[File:AZ Floette Adventures.png|thumb|left|160px|Floette in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga]]
Floette first appears in a flashback in [[PS578]]. AZ [[PS580|later]] explained that he created the [[Ultimate weapon]] to revive his dead Floette. AZ then wanted the war Floette was killed in to end, so he turned the Ultimate weapon into a weapon of destruction and fired it. The war ended, but Floette realized that AZ sacrificed the lives of many Pokémon to power the machine, so she leaves him.

3000 years later in ''[[PS594|Epilogue]]'', AZ teaches {{adv|X}}, {{adv|Y}}, {{adv|Trevor}}, {{adv|Shauna}} and {{adv|Tierno}} to not be disappointed in the fact that no one is thanking them for defeating [[Team Flare]], as that same feeling was what caused [[Lysandre]] to start Team Flare in the first place. After this, Floette returned to AZ.

Ange

{{Incomplete|needs= Incomplete history, missing images, missing a LOT.}}

'''Ange''' (Japanese: '''アンジュ''' ''Ange'') is a machine created by [[AZ]] 2000 years prior to the events of [[Pokémon X and Y]], located in [[Lumiose City]].

==History==

=== Background ===
2000 years prior to the events of [[Pokémon X and Y]], during [[AZ]]'s aimeless wandering, a man of great power asked for his help with a way to protect [[Kalos]]. Instead of making another device that would take from others, he decided to make one that would instead share the eternal life he had bestowed on [[AZ#Befriended|Floette]], Ange, embedded into the [[Prism Tower]]. He planned to use it after reuniting with Floette, but that day did not come to pass as they were living in a time of peace.

=== Pokémon X and Y ===
During Pokémon X and Y, the weapon remained inactive, however, after the firing of the [[ultimate weapon]] by [[Lysandre]], Ange reawakened and its Mega Power began to leak out in excessive ammounts. This eventually caused [[Rogue Mega Evolution]] and the appearance of [[Mega Crystal|Mega Crystals]] across [[Lumiose City]].

==Abilities==
The weapon is powered by [[AZ]]'s [[AZ#Befriended|Floette]]. It has the power to create Rogue Megas by exposing the Pokémon to the machine's light. Ange is a weapon embedded in the Prism Tower, designed to give eternal life to all living beings that it hits. It is designed as the opposite of the [[ultimate weapon]], granting eternal life instead of destroying life.

Prism Tower

TohjoFalls: /* Name origin */ Ange does not belong here and is mentioned no where else on this page. There is a dedicated Ange page!

{{Infobox location

}}

The '''Prism Tower''' (Japanese: '''プリズムタワー''' ''Prism Tower'') is a tower located in [[Centrico Plaza]], at the heart of [[Lumiose City]]. It is the tallest standing structure in the city, and thus serves as a symbol of the city, as well as a major tourist attraction.

In [[Pokémon X and Y]], the Prism Tower houses the [[Lumiose Gym]]. The Prism Tower plays a major role in the story of [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]].

==History==

==In the core series games==
===Pokémon X and Y===
[[File:Prism Tower XY.png|thumb|right|250px|The Prism Tower in {{g|X and Y}}]]
The Lumiose Gym is a high-tech tower known as the Prism Tower. It is initially inaccessible when the player first reaches Lumiose City as it and much of the rest of the city have lost power due to a blackout. After the {{player}} has defeated Team Flare in the [[Kalos Power Plant]], power will be fully restored to the city and the player will be able to challenge Prism Tower.

The Gym features groups of elevators guarded by the Gym's Trainers on several floors. On each floor before the sixth (where [[Clemont]] is), [[Bonnie]] will quiz the player about a [[Who's That Pokémon?|Pokémon's silhouette]] as a multiple choice question, and the player must choose the elevator corresponding to the correct answer. The player must battle the Trainer guarding the elevator they have chosen before they can enter the elevator and know whether they have chosen correctly. If the player has chosen correctly, the elevator will ascend to the next floor, but if they have chosen wrongly, they will have to try another elevator.

===Pokémon Legends: Z-A===
In the five years following the events of Pokémon X and Y, the Prism Tower no longer houses the Lumiose Gym.

==In the spin-off-games==
===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]===
{{main|Prism Tower (stage)}}

'''{{St|Prism Tower}}''' appears as a playable stage in [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]], serving as a hallmark for Lumiose City. Matches begin on the ground level of the tower in front of the building, and players must climb the tower by securing footholds (such as moving platforms). As the stage ascends, the background scenery changes to a different [[time]] of day.

[[File:Prism Tower 3DS trophy SSB4.png|thumb|150px|Prism Tower trophy in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS]]
The Prism Tower also appears as a trophy exclusive to the 3DS game.

====Trophy information====
'''NA''': A notable location from Pokémon X and Pokémon Y. The Prism Tower is the symbol of Lumiose City, the metropolis at the heart of the Kalos region. In this game, platforms will take you on a tour around the tower and its surrounding areas, and at night you can marvel at the fabulous illuminations. You may see different Pokémon, as well.

'''PAL''': A notable location from Pokémon X and Pokémon Y. The Prism Tower is the symbol of Lumiose City, the metropolis at the heart of the Kalos region. In this game, platforms will take you on a tour around the tower and its surrounding areas, and at night you can marvel at the fabulous illuminations. Of course, you may run into a Pokémon, too.

==Trivia==
* A mini replica of the Prism Tower, called Square Tower, can be found in the central courtyard of [[Mauville City]] in {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}.

===Origin===
{{main|Pokémon world in relation to the real world#Lumiose City|Pokémon world in relation to the real world → Lumiose City}}
The Prism Tower is based on the {{wp|Eiffel Tower}},<ref>(October 9, 2025). "[https://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/illuminating-lumiose-city Illuminating Lumiose City]." Pokemon.com</ref> a lattice tower and the tallest structure in the city of {{wp|Paris}} (which [[Lumiose City]] is based on). Its location at the center of Lumiose City likely references the {{wp|Arc de Triomphe}}'s position at the center of Paris's {{wp|Place Charles de Gaulle}}.

We All Live in a Pokémon World…

2025-10-16T22:03:54Z

TohjoFalls: The very start of trying to clean this up.

:''This article is about a fansite. For the song with this line in it, see [[Pokémon World (song)]].''
----
{{outdated}}
'''We All Live in a Pokémon World…''' was a [[Pokémon]] fansite that came online in 2000. Its initial purpose was dispelling the rumors and accusations brought against [[The Pokémon Company]] by parents, teachers, and special interest groups at the height of the popular interest in the franchise.

The webpage was part of www.kimsites.net, a group of websites all run by one webmaster who works under the name of Kimberly. She created the site in order to defend the Pokémon franchise by providing specific examples from the [[Pokémon games]] and {{aniseries|PTS}}. In 2003, the site became active again as new accusations against Pokémon arose. The font colors on the website are separated by the date that they were added. All of the text in black was part of the original website in 2000, and the text in blue is what has been added since it was revived in 2003.

==History==
When Pokémon was at the height of its popularity, Kimberly, who was a substitute teacher at the time, had heard several accusations against the Pokémon franchise through the school system and the media. Out of curiosity, she decided to see what all the attention was about. As she continued to explore Pokémon, she discovered her own vested interest, and thought a lot of the criticism towards Pokémon was unjust. As a result, she created her website in 2000. In 2003, public controversy caused her to begin to update the website with the latest information on Pokémon and its criticism. The website was last active in May of 2016.

==Website content==
===Home Page===

A brief history of the website and a general synopsis of Kimberly's mission is stated here. The website is formatted with a link system at the bottom of each page, linking one page to the next.

===What Is Pokémon?===
Kimberly begins by saying the proper way to pronounce the word "Pokémon" ("Po-KAY-mahn" or "Pok-uh-mahn" as she describes it, using this as a way to criticize Pokémon critics, by saying things such as "...will somebody please tell the morons at the {{wp|Star Ledger}} that Pokémon is also plural - there's no such word as 'Pokemons' [and, yes, they left off the accent mark, too]!" She then continues to discuss what a Pokémon is, and then giving a basic premise of the TV series.

For further information on this subject, Kimberly refers the following episodes:
*''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''
*''[[AG001|Get the Show on the Road!]]''
*''[[DP001|Following A Maiden's Voyage!]]''
*''[[DP190|The Brockster is in!]]''

===Battles Over Pokémon Battles...===
This section begins with Kimberley stating that there is a difference between a [[Pokémon battle]] and {{wp|cockfights}}. She claims that a Pokémon battle does not equate in the cruelty, because a Pokémon battles out of free will. Also, a Pokémon fights out of love for their trainer. If they have an over-demanding or cruel trainer, the Pokémon likely will not obey them.

In regards to this, Kimberly suggests watching the following episodes:
*''[[EP008|The Path to the Pokémon League]]''
*''[[EP011|Charmander- the Stray Pokémon]]''
*''[[EP042|Showdown at Dark City]]''
*''[[EP084|The Lost Lapras]]''
*''[[EP105|Charizard Chills]]''
*''[[EP200|Turning Over A New Bayleef]]''
*''[[AG020|Brave the Wave]]''
*''[[AG140|Sitting Psyduck]]''
*''[[DP119|Trials and Adulations!]]''
*''[[BW004|The Battle Club and Tepig's Choice!]]''
*''[[BW007|Snivy Plays Hard to Catch!]]''
*''[[BW033|Iris and Excadrill Against the Dragon Buster!]]''

Likewise, Kimberly also suggests these games:
*[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]]
*[[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions]]
*[[Pokémon Black and White Versions]]

===Pokémon and Prejudice...===
Kimberly writes about how it's almost an expectation for adults to not understand the Pokémon world. She starts to specifically explain the controversy behind the first two [[Pokémon movie]]s, [[M01|Pokémon the First Movie - Mewtwo Strikes Back]] and [[M02|The Power of One]], claiming that their messages were mistranslated and stretched far beyond reason. She claims these misinterpretations are far more dangerous than Pokémon itself, possibly leading to prejudice in the viewing child.

Kimberly suggests the following episodes for those seeking more information:
*''[[AG061|Disaster of Disguise]]''
*''[[AG062|Disguise Da Limit]]''

===Pokémon in the Classroom...===
Here Kimberly defends the use of Pokémon within schools. She argues that if normal toys and games are allowed during a student's free time, Pokémon should be no exception. She asserts that a majority of reasons for banning Pokémon are merely lame excuses, such as the inability for a teacher to distinguish how Pokémon [[Fainting|faint]] as opposed to die.

Kimberly believes that Pokémon could be used as an important learning tool to help foster imagination. She further states that learning materials, such as the [[Pokémon Learning League]] give teachers no excuse to ban Pokémon.

Kimberly suggests the following related episode:
*''[[BW012|Here Comes the Trubbish Squad!]]''

===The Idiot's Guide to Pokémon...===
Kimberly now shifts the focus from talking about teachers to talking about parents. She claims that parents shouldn't be critical of Pokémon since a majority have little insight into the basics of Pokémon, such as not knowing who {{Ash}} was. She also criticizes those who base their Pokémon opinion off of critic reviews as opposed to actual experience with the franchise. She claims that {{wp|film critics}} in particular did not understand the message behind Pokémon, and thus were an unreliable source. She then chastises parents who get easily annoyed with [[Pokémon language]], as Pikachu yelling, "Pika Pika" can be irritating. She points out that many of those same parents probably grew up watching {{wp|Lassie}}, who could only communicate in a similar "bark bark."

The following related episode has been suggested by Kimberly:
*[[EP195|The Poké Spokesman]]

===Pokémon: The Best Animal Show You're Not Watching===
Kimberly reasserts her claim that animal abuse and Pokémon have distinct differences, and then expands that claim to say that Pokémon actually addresses many modern animal issues in a way that should be viewed as positive, such as bringing a negative connotation to the {{wp|Hunting}} and {{wp|Poaching}} of Pokémon.

Kimberly cites the following episodes as examples:
*''[[EP220|The Mystery is History]]''
*''[[EP221|A Parent Trapped!]]''
*''[[EP222|A Promise is a Promise]]''
*''[[EP235|Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution]]''
*''[[EP236|Rage of Innocence]]''
*''[[EP263|Address Unown!]]''
*''[[EP264|Mother of All Battles]]''
*''[[AG006|A Poached Ego!]]''
*''[[DP116|The Drifting Snorunt!]]''
*''[[DP020|Mutiny in the Bounty!]]''
*''[[DP045|Ill-Will Hunting!]]''
*''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! (Part 1)]]''
*''[[DP072|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! (Part 2)]]''
*''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]''
*''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]''

===There Are No Bad Pokémon...===
Kimberly argues that Pokémon is a series about conflicts between people, and not Pokémon. Pokémon simply take on the characteristics of their trainers, and themselves cannot be "evil" since they are simply obeying orders. She quotes [[Jessie's Arbok]] from back when it was an {{p|Ekans}}, who said, ""Pokémon only do bad things because master (is) bad," which is significant coming from one of the Pokémon very commonly perceived to be "evil." She also points out how {{wp|Peta2}} did not put Pokémon on their list of games that oppose animal abuse.

Kimberly suggests the following episodes for more information:
*''[[EP017|Island of the Giant Pokémon]]''
*''[[EP150|Hour of the Houndour]]''
*''[[AG019|Sharpedo Attack!]]''

She also suggests the following movies:
*''[[M04|Pokémon 4Ever - Celebi: The Voice of the Forest]]''
*''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]''
*''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''

Furthermore, Kimberly also believed the following games were related:
*[[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]]

===In Defense of Pokémon...===
Kimberly asserts that there is "ignorance and prejudice" surrounding a lot of Pokémon criticism. She claims that Pokémon was merely scapegoated because it was popular, comparing it to {{wp|Elvis Presley}} shaking his hips.

She specifically referred to two sources of public outrage. The first was the infant who choked on one of the [[1999 Burger King promotional Pokémon toys]], claiming the parent should have taken more responsibility since the toy was clearly marked "For Ages 3 and up." The second topic she addresses is the infamous [[EP038]] episode, which was cancelled due to viewers having seizures as a result of the flashing effects. Kimberly asserts that any television show using the same visual effect would have gotten a similar result, and that it was merely an "unfortunate accident" that it happened to Pokémon.

===For the Love of Pokémon...===
Kimberly takes a more personal standpoint in this section, talking about her own personal experience with the series. She talks about how kids were always excited to hear that she was a Pokémon fan when she was their substitute teacher, and how she has made a personal connection to the series by watching the evolution of Ash. She states, "Over the years, I've seen Ash go from a cocky, inexperienced kid only interested in winning and beating his old rival {{Gary}}, to a compassionate trainer who cares deeply about all Pokémon, putting their needs ahead of his own, and always eager to learn more about them so he and his friends can better understand their world."

===Pokémon Ripped From the Headlines...===
In this section, Kimberly discusses several episodes that were banned or not air. She isn't happy by the fact that TV series that are, in her opinion, misinterpreted to be conflicting with the {{wp|September 11 attacks}} or {{wp|Hurricane Katrina}}, despite the fact that they were either created before these occurrences or had little correlation. Censorship is one of Kimberly's biggest disdains in terms of opposition to Pokémon.

===Pokémon Outside the Box...===
Kimberly discusses here how promotional foods for Pokémon was something she would have loved to have, but was constantly criticized. However, she acknowledges that this was not specific to Pokémon; the {{wp|Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood}} was discouraging this sort of advertisement in many regards. She also addresses how all {{wp|video games}} are unfairly bundled together, stereotyped as promoting laziness and ignorance. She counters this argument by saying that Pokémon toys such as the [[Pokéwalker]] set Pokémon apart from other video games, and enforced that this stereotype was not true.

===Pokémon, Then and Now...===
Kimberly here discusses Pokémon's loss of being a "fad," but claims that despite this loss of popularity, Pokémon was here to stay, citing the new [[Generation V]] video games as prime examples.

'''Nihil Light''' (Japanese: '''無に帰す光''' ''Light That Returns to Nothing'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Dragon}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation IX]], in {{g|Legends: Z-A}}. It is the [[signature move]] of [[Mega Evolution|Mega]] {{p|Zygarde}}.

==Effect==
Nihil Light deals damage and ignores any stat changes affecting its targets. It also bypasses {{type|Fairy}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}'s immunity to {{type|Dragon}} [[move]]s.

Nihil Light has a [[cooldown]] of 15 seconds.

==Trivia==
* Nihil Light is the only new [[move]] introduced in [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]].
* The Japanese move of Nihil Light uses {{wp|kanji}}, which is similar to some [[signature move|signature]] [[Z-Move]]s.
** Specifically, this move is similar to {{m|Light That Burns the Sky}}, which can be only used when {{p|Necrozma}} changes its form into Ultra Necrozma, similar to Zygarde Complete that needs to [[Mega Evolve]] into Mega Zygarde in order to use Nihil Light.
* Nihil Light is the only move that is exclusively usable by a [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolved]] Pokémon.
* Nihil Light is tied with a {{m|Devastating Drake}} based on {{m|Roar of Time}} for the highest base [[power]] of all {{type|Dragon}} [[move]]s.

[[File:PLZA Mega Crystals.png|thumb|Three types of Mega Crystal; Corner, Small, and Large, from left to right respectively.]]
'''Mega Crystals''' (Japanese: '''メガ結晶''' ''Mega Crystals'') are a form of interactable object in [[Pokémon Legends: Z-A]] that appear as pink crystals sticking out of a rocky base.

They can be targeted by the user, and can be destroyed using any [[Damage category|damaging]] [[Move|Pokémon move]]. Upon destruction, they drop [[Mega Shard]]s.

They reappear periodically across [[Lumiose City]] on the ground, walls, roofs, chimneys and such, as a byproduct of the Mega Energy that is let loose by the reactivated [[Ange]], much like [[Rogue Mega Evolution]].

At least one Mega Crystal has to be destroyed to progress in the game, this being the Mega Crystal that has grown beneath the ladder right besides [[Hotel Z]].
