'''N''' (Japanese: '''Ｎ（エヌ）''' ''N'') is a character in {{game|Black and White|s}}. He was the leader of [[Team Plasma]] in {{game|Black and White|s}} and aspired to create separate worlds for [[human]]s and {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. His full name is '''Natural Harmonia Gropius''' (Japanese: '''ナチュラル・ハルモニア・グロピウス''' ''Natural Harmonia Gropius'').<ref name="Masuda blog 539">http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir/?p=539</ref>

==In the games==
[[File:Young N.png|left|thumb|N as a child]]
[[File:NClose.png|200px|right|thumb|A close-up of N in [[N's Castle|his castle]] after the final battle]]
N was raised by [[Ghetsis]], the internal leader of the [[Seven Sages]]. As he grew up, he was appointed as the king and leader of [[Team Plasma]]. He is an anti-villain, being the primary antagonist, yet a good natured person who sees Pokémon as his friends and is generally rather amicable toward the {{player}} as well. According to [[Anthea and Concordia|Concordia]], "N's heart is pure and innocent." At several points during the game he appears before the player to battle.

As a child, he was raised together with {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and was isolated from [[human]]s. Ghetsis would only let N see Pokémon that had been hurt by humans. Based on the contents of his room in [[N's Castle]], as a child he appeared to be interested in skateboarding, transportation (such as planes and trains), basketball, and darts. He also had many brand new toys. Pokémon have played with his toys, as his skateboard is covered in claw marks and scratches. It is revealed by Anthea and Concordia in {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}} that N was an orphan raised by Pokémon in a forest until he was taken in by Ghetsis.

In Black and White, N is first seen in the game's prologue movie, in which N, clothed in special garb, is crowned by Ghetsis in the throne room of a castle. During the ceremony, as the other Sages watch, N remembers his childhood spent with his Pokémon friends.

[[File:N B2W2 Trailer.png|250px|thumb|N at [[Dragonspiral Tower]] in a flashback during [[Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 Special Introduction Movie|Black 2 and White 2's trailer]]]]
The player first meets N in [[Accumula Town]] after Team Plasma's public rally and Ghetsis's speech, where he challenges the player to a [[Pokémon battle]]. He again appears outside of the [[Nacrene Gym]], for another battle, and later at [[Nimbasa City]], where he asks the player to talk to him while riding the city's Ferris Wheel. During this excursion, N reveals that he is the leader of Team Plasma; Ghetsis had asked him to assist him in Team Plasma's liberation of Pokémon. It is confirmed after the ride, when a group of Plasma Grunts address him as their leader, and he battles the player to allow them time to get away. He is again encountered at the [[Chargestone Cave]], where he battles the player, and lastly, in [[Dragonspiral Tower]], where he found {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}} for his plans.

When the player challenges the {{un|Pokémon League}}, after beating the [[Elite Four]], the player finds N with [[Alder]], the {{pkmn|Champion}}, arguing over the use of Pokémon as tools. When the player arrives, N summons [[N's Castle|his Castle]] from the earth, which attaches itself to the Pokémon League, and as he enters the Castle, he challenges the player to face him. [[Cheren]] arrives, and he and Alder ask the player to stop him.

Within the castle's throne room, N tells the player that his goal is to create separate worlds for both humans and Pokémon, saying that he is willing to battle even if his Pokémon are hurt. To combat the player, he summons {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}}. As N's dragon appears, the player's {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Light Stone|Light}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{DL|Legendary artifacts|Dark Stone|Dark}}{{sup|W}} Stone is revived into the opposing dragon, and N encourages the player to battle it.

Once the dragon is caught, N will challenge the player. After N is defeated, Ghetsis appears and reveals he revived {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}} for N to use, calling him a disappointment. Team Plasma's motive for stealing Pokémon—separate worlds—is shown to be a lie. Ghetsis manipulated N and Team Plasma to ensure that he was the only person in Unova with Pokémon so that he could dominate the region. Alder and Cheren both hear this. Ghetsis battles the player in a rage, despite N's protest. After the battle, Alder and Cheren arrest Ghetsis and take him away.

After the battle, N apologizes, walks to a hole to outside on edge of the throne room, lets out his legendary Pokémon, and bids a final farewell to the player. Then, after the credit-roll, an epilogue movie plays in which {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}}, with N on top, hovers above the clouds and, activating its tail's engine, accelerates away.

After the player finds the other six Sages for [[Looker]], Looker says that he has heard that N was seen in a distant land with a {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon.

In {{game|Black and White|s|4=2}}, N returns to save {{p|Kyurem}} from [[Ghetsis]] riding {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|B2}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W2}}. When his legendary dragon is absorbed by Kyurem to transform to Black Kyurem{{sup|B2}}/White Kyurem{{sup|W2}}, he pleads the player to stop Ghetsis and get it back.

On {{rt|23|Unova}} on the way to {{OBP|Victory Road|Black and White}}, he will give the player {{HM|05|Waterfall}}.

After the player has entered the [[Hall of Fame]], N's Zoroark will appear on [[Victory Road (Black and White)|Victory Road]] and lead the player to [[N's Castle]], where N and the player walk around the ruins which used to be [[N's Castle]]. In the throne room, N will ask the player to battle him with {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|B2}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W2}}. When the player defeats him, N will revert his dragon to its dormant state—the [[Dragon Stone|Dark Stone]]{{sup|B2}}/[[Dragon Stone|Light Stone]]{{sup|W2}}—and gives it to the player to summon it at [[Dragonspiral Tower]] to catch.

After catching {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|B2}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W2}} and {{p|Kyurem}}, catching all of [[N's Pokemon]], reaching the end of the [[Abyssal Ruins]] and subsequently talking to [[Zinzolin]] in [[Undella Town]] to receive a [[Big Pearl]], along with another unknown condition, N appears in [[Nimbasa City]] near the Rondez-View Ferris Wheel. After both rides with him, he will return to his castle for a rematch with different Pokemon depending on the [[Seasons|season]].

'''At [[Accumula Town]]'''
* Before battle
:''"Your Pokémon... Just now, it was saying..."''
:''"Yes, they're talking. Oh. Then, you two can't hear it, either... How sad. My name is N."''
:''"The [[Pokédex]], eh? So... You're going to confine many, many Pokémon in [[Poké Ball]]s for that, then. I'm a {{pkmn|Trainer}}, too, but I can't help wondering... Are Pokémon really happy that way?"''
:''"Well, <player>, is it? Let me hear your Pokémon's voice again!"''

* After taking a hit
:''"More! Let me hear the voice of your Pokémon!"''

* After being defeated
:''"I never expected to hear Pokémon say such things..."''

* After the battle
:''"As long as Pokémon are confined in Poké Balls... Pokémon will never become perfect beings. I have to change the world for Pokémon, because they're my friends."''

'''At [[Nacrene City]]'''
:''"I... want to see things no one can see. The truths of Pokémon inside Poké Balls. The ideals of how Trainers should be. And a future where Pokémon have become perfect... Do you feel the same?"''
::'''Yes''': ''"That so? I think my friends and I should test you to see if you can see this future, too."''
::'''No''': ''"Huh. I expected more from you. Now pay attention. My friends and I will test you to see if you can see this future, too."''

* After being defeated
:''"I cannot see the future yet... The {{pkmn|world}} is still to be determined..."''

* After battle
:''"Right now, my friends aren't strong enough to save all Pokémon. Maybe I can't solve the equation that will change the world. So, I need power... Power enough to make anyone agree with me."''
:''"Now I know what power I need. {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}}! The [[legendary Pokémon]] that, along with the hero, created the [[Unova]] region. It's my turn to become that hero--and you and I will be friends!"''

'''At [[Nimbasa City]]'''
:''"You're looking for Team Plasma, right? They ran into the amusement park. Come with me."''
:''"They're not here. Let's ride the Ferris wheel and see if we can spot them. I love Ferris wheels… The circular motion… The mechanics… They're like collections of elegant formulas."''
:''"First, I must tell you... I am the king of Team Plasma. Ghetsis asked me to work with him to save Pokémon. I wonder how many Pokémon exist in this world."''
:''"There's no problem. You're part of the people we brought in to help us save the Pokémon. So, you're under my protection, as well. Go, quickly, and let my battle cover your retreat. ...Now then, <player>, do you follow my logic?"''
::'''Yes''': ''"If true, your words please me."''
::'''No''': ''"So that's how it is... That's unfortunate."''
:''"Ah. Then... The future I envision... Perhaps I can't beat you here and now, but I'll battle you to buy time for these members of Team Plasma to get away!"''

* After the first move
:''"Your Pokémon look happy."''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"Even if I lose, is it different from the future I saw?"''

* Upon defeat
:''"The result was the same... But you... Who are you?"''

* After battle
:''"You're quite strong. But I have a future that I must change. And, for that future... I'll defeat the Champion and become unbeatable, unlike any other! I'll make all Trainers free their Pokémon! Just try and stop me! If you want to be together with Pokémon, your only hope is to collect the Badges from each area and head for the Pokémon League! Try and stop me there, if you dare! If your conviction is not strong enough, you will never be able to defeat me."''

'''At [[Chargestone Cave]]'''
:''"Ah, yes. That was the [[Shadow Triad]], just now. [[Ghetsis]] enlisted them in [[Team Plasma]]. Apparently, they were the ones who prepared the {{p|Galvantula}} nest at the cave entrance."''
:''"Chargestone Cave... I like this place. Formulas express {{t|electric}}ity and its connection to Pokémon... If people did not exist, this would be an ideal place. You have been chosen, you know. Does it surprise you I said that?"''
::'''Yes''': ''"Of course. Such news should be a surprise."''
::'''No''': ''"Hmph. If you don't understand what that means, it's not likely to surprise you."''
:''"I told Ghetsis about you and your friends. After I did, he apparently used the Shadow Triad to find out about you. [[Cheren]] is pursuing the ideal of strength. Poor [[Bianca]] has faced the sad truth that not everyone can become stronger. And you are not swayed either way--more of a neutral presence. Which is apparently a good thing. Team Plasma will be waiting for you ahead. Ghetsis wants to see what kind of Pokémon Trainer you really are."''

* Before battle
:''"Many different values mix together, and the world becomes gray... That is unforgivable! I will separate Pokémon and people, and [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|black and white]] will be clearly distinct! Only then will Pokémon become perfect beings! Yes, that is my dream! That is the dream I must fulfill! <player>, do you have a dream of your own?"''
::'''Yes''': ''"You have a dream... That's wonderful. I'll learn just what kind of dream you have--in battle!"''
::'''No''': ''"As if a person without a dream could ever understand me! Eh... I guess... I have to crush your will here!"''

*After takes a hit
:''"Do you believe that [[Pokémon battle]]s help us understand one another?"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"I will show you that my love for my friends permeates every cell of my body. Behold!"''

* Upon defeat
:''"My friends getting hurt... That's what a Pokémon battle is."''

* After battle
:''"Tsk! Why? Is it impossible for me to win while feeling bad about being a Trainer? As if I could pursue my ideals{{sup|Bl}}/the truth{{sup|W}} with something as meaningless as a battle! As if that could make me worthy to become friends with the [[legendary Pokémon]]!"''

:''"[[Professor Juniper]], what are you thinking? You appear to have no qualms about the relationship between Pokémon and people. You put Pokémon into categories using arbitrary rules and think you can understand them like that... The very idea of a Pokédex revolts me. What do you have to say for yourself?"''

:''"You're saying I should just allow people to think whatever they want and treat Pokémon however they want, no matter whether the Pokémon suffer? I refuse to tolerate the existence of a world like that!"''

'''At [[Mistralton City]]'''
:''"They may say it is for understanding one another better, but what Trainers really use battles for is to compete... And they hurt each others' Pokémon! Am I the only one who finds this terribly painful? Whatever... I'm going to talk to your Pokémon. I've been living with Pokémon since I was born, so it's easier for me to talk with them than with people. ...Because Pokémon never tell lies."''
:''"Hey, <lead Pokémon>. Would you tell me what kind of Trainer <player> is?"''
:''"OK, OK, got it. So <player> was born in [[Nuvema Town]], lives with [[Mom]], and was given the Pokédex to start off a journey to see the world. Still, this <lead Pokémon> trusts you for some reason. That's good! If every person and Pokémon cared about one another like you two do, I could watch over the future of people and Pokémon without having to liberate Pokémon from people who just use them."''
:''"Ghetsis is using Team Plasma to search for some special stones--the {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Light Stone}} and the {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Dark Stone}}... These stones hold the essence of two legendary Pokémon. It is said that when they lost their physical form, they fell into a slumber and were transformed. Now, they wait for the hero's arrival... I shall resurrect a legendary {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon from one of these stones, and become its friend. That will show the world that I am the new hero. Everyone will follow what I say!"''
:''"My vision is to change the world without using force. Trying to change the world by force will just make others resist. If people resist, the ones that will be hurt are the innocent Pokémon used by foolish Trainers. You understand. Pokémon are not just tools for people to use!"''
:''"As a result... Pokémon and Trainers who care about one another, like you and your Pokémon, will be separated. And that does break my heart a little."''

'''At [[Dragonspiral Tower]]'''
:''"What do you think, <player>? How do you like the powerful{{sup|Bl}}/beautiful{{sup|W}} form of the Pokémon who appears before and fights beside the hero that will lead the way to a new world?"''
:''"Now, {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}} and I will head to the Pokémon League and defeat the Champion! This will be the last of the Pokémon battles that hurt Pokémon so. A world for Pokémon alone... It's finally going to be a reality."''
:''"If you want to stop me, you must become a hero as well! That's right! When Zekrom{{sup|Bl}}/Reshiram{{sup|W}}'s counterpart, Reshiram{{sup|Bl}}/Zekrom{{sup|W}}, recognizes you, we will finally be even, and then you can try to stop us!"''
:''"Well, what will you do? My prediction... If the future that I see is true, you will meet Reshiram{{sup|Bl}}/Zekrom{{sup|W}}. The Pokémon with you believe in you so strongly... Will you be the one who interferes with my formula for changing the world? If you want to protect the bonds between Pokémon and people, you must search for Reshiram{{sup|Bl}}/Zekrom{{sup|W}}! I'm sure it is waiting for you in the form of the Light Stone{{sup|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup|W}}."''

'''At [[Pokémon League]]'''
:''"It's over! Never again will Pokémon be made to suffer or be held captive by humans. It's all thanks to my friend, {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}}! You may have the title of Champion… But you can't stop me with just a title. Your soft heart has left you weak. Years ago, you lost your Pokémon, your partner, to sickness. In order to forget the pain in your heart, you wandered Unova… Who knows how long it's been since you've had to fight with your full strength? I actually kind of like that about you, though. As a Trainer who far outmatches the Champion, I shall issue an order across Unova: Trainers of the world, free your Pokémon!"''
:''"You and I both put our beliefs on the line and fought with all our strength. And I won. Do not say another word."''
:''"...I've been waiting. In the future I envisioned, you obtained a stone. And, indeed, you have. That Light Stone{{sup|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup|W}}... {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}} is responding to it. Stop. This is not a suitable for the legendary dragons! From the ground, rise up! The castle of Team Plasma! Surround the Pokémon League!"''
:''"What has just appeared is Team Plasma's castle. The king's words will resound from the heights to all below. You must come to the castle, as well. Everything will be decided there. Whether Pokémon will be liberated from people, or whether Pokémon and people will live together… We will see whose belief is stronger... And our result will change the world."''

'''At [[N's Castle]]'''
:''"What I desire is a world for Pokémon, and Pokémon alone. I will separate Pokémon from people, so Pokémon can regain their original power."
:''"It's time to settle this once and for all! My determination is absolute! I will prove the value of my beliefs even if it means my Pokémon friends get hurt! Since you've come this far, I believe you are equally determined. If that's so, prove it to me! Show me the depth of your determination!"''
:''"You came all this way to battle me… But {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|W}} is not responding. You haven't yet been recognized as the hero, have you? How disappointing. I actually kind of liked you a little. Through our many battles, I got the feeling that you might be a Trainer who truly cares for Pokémon!"''
:''"But I was kidding myself. The idea of Trainers getting to know each other through battles is ridculous! You have two options. Challenge me to a fight you can't win, or leave this place and watch the birth of a new world where Pokémon are free of people! {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}}! Come to me!"''
:''"Your Light Stone{{sup|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup|W}} is… I mean, {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|W}} is…"''
:''"Zekrom and Reshiram… They were once one life. One Pokémon. Complete opposites, yet the same. Zekrom and Reshiram are Pokémon that appear before the hero they recognize. Ah… I see. You really are a hero, too. I'll tell you what that Pokémon is saying to you. "I want to battle with you. Try to make me your friend and ally." It plans to test you to see if you are really pursuing truth{{sup|Bl}}/ideals{{sup|W}}. I, also, am curious to see how powerful you are. Now, catch {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|W}} and make it your ally!"''
:''"Ah… I see. {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|W}}, who is said to lend its power to the hero who searches for truth{{sup|Bl}}/ideals{{sup|W}}, has recognized your power and now agrees to stand by your side…"''
:''"Hold on. Your Pokémon are hurt. There is no triumph to be gained in battling a weakened opponent."''
:''"Now, I will create the future I desire! I shall sweep you before me!"''

* First hit
:''"Do you really think you can stop us with that?"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"My last friend... Please share your courage with me!"''

* Last Pokémon at low health
:''"Is the world going to choose you, and not me?!"{{sup|Bl}}''
:''"Is the world going to choose you-- and not me?!"{{sup|W}}''

* Upon defeat
:''"Everything's ruined. The ideals{{sup|Bl}}/truth{{sup|W}} I held… The dreams Pokémon shared…"''

* After battle
:''"… … {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}} and I were beaten. Your truth{{sup|Bl}}/ideals{{sup|W}}… Your feelings… They were stronger than mine, it seems… Reshiram and Zekrom… Each of them choosing a different hero… Is that even possible? Two heroes living at the same time— one that pursues truth and one that pursues ideals. Could… Could they both be right? I don't know. It's not by rejecting different ideas, but by accepting different ideas that the world creates a chemical reaction. This is truly the formula for changing the world."''
:''"But…I have no right to be the hero!"''
:''"Acting like you understand… Up till now, we've been fighting each other over our beliefs! Yet, despite that… Why?!"''
:''"I want to talk to you about something."''
:''"It's about when I first met you in Accumula Town. I was shocked when I heard what your Pokémon was saying. I was shocked because that Pokémon said it liked you. It said it wanted to be with you."''
:''"I couldn't understand it. I couldn't believe there were Pokémon that liked people. Because, up until that moment, I'd never known a Pokémon like that. The longer my journey continued, the more unsure I became. All I kept meeting were Pokémon and people who communicated with one another and helped one another. That was why I needed to confirm my beliefs by battling with you. I wanted to confront you hero-to-hero. I needed that more than anything."''
:''"There's no way a person like me, someone who understands only Pokémon— No, actually… I didn't understand them, either. No way could I measure up to you, when you had met so many Pokémon and were surrounded by friends…"''
:''"The Champion has forgiven me, and… What I should do now is something I'll have to decide for myself."''

[[File:N Adventures.png|thumb|right|150px|N as he appears in Pokémon Adventures]]
N makes his first appearance standing near an [[Xtransceiver]] commercial shooting after {{adv|Black}} manages to save it from being attacked by a wild {{p|Galvantula}}. He sheds tears over the fact that Pokémon are being used for purposes such as acting.

He later appears in [[Accumula Town]] where he confronts and battles Black. He expresses his disgust with the Pokédex to Black and claims that Trainers lock up his "friends" in Poké Balls just so that it can fill the Pokédex, making them nothing more than a source of information to fill the Pokédex with information. Eventually, Black's [[Tep]] manages to defeat his Tympole, and N decides to take his leave after learning that there are Pokémon that enjoy the company of Trainers. After leaving, Black reveals that N isn't really a bad person after his [[Musha]] ate his dream and revealed it to him.

Later, at [[Nimbasa City]], N knocks {{adv|White}} into one of the Ferris wheel cars and climbs into it. After a brief talk, N forces White's [[Gigi]] to fight his Servine. After Gigi wins, N concludes that White had been neglecting Gigi's battle skills. When White tries to escape, she is shocked to see Gigi side with N instead of her and falls hard to ground below. As the two watch from the Rondez-View Ferris wheel, N sends his Servine to White's aid.

Later, N and Gigi arrive at the [[Dragonspiral Tower]]. As he stares at the building, N muses over the location where Truth and Ideals meet while Gigi watches him.

===In the Pokémon BW: The Heroes of Fire and Thunder manga===
N appears in every chapter of [[Pokémon BW: The Heroes of Fire and Thunder]] as the king of [[Team Plasma]], known for harshly punishing any failure by grunts and wishing to turn [[Unova]] into a country inhabited only by Pokémon. He is first seen wearing a cape in atown in Unova, where he is approached by Shin who asks him for a battle, impressed by his {{p|Purrloin}}. He responds that he is not a Pokémon Trainer, but merely a Traveler. Several Team Plasma grunts then appear and snatch up his Purrloin, not realising that he is their boss. Shin is angry about them stealing Pokémon, but N states that he should not get involved because it'd be dangerous for him, but Shin replies that he doesn't mind.

As they follow the grunts, N questions Shin's reasons for desperately trying to rescue his Purrloin if he is just a Pokémon Trainer who uses Pokémon as tools, to which he replies that traveling together with a Pokémon is just more fun. N overhears a pair of {{p|Pidove}}s talking, to which Shin begs N to teach him how to understand Pokémon language, leading N to call him an odd Pokémon Trainer.

Catching up with Togari in a rocky plateau, he wonders why humans give orders to Pokémon to make them hurt each other, and tells Shin he is just saving Pokémon to make himself feel good, which he rejects, stating that being with a Pokémon is more fun for both the Trainer and the Pokémon as N hears Shin and his {{p|Tepig}}'s voices in unison.
N feels that Shin is stirring some emotion within him, saying that Shin really is an odd Pokémon Trainer for getting Purrloin back for him, and Shin decides to travel together with N as his journey will be more fun if they're together.

The second chapter starts as Shin and N are trying to return a {{p|Blitzle}} to its {{p|Zebstrika}} herd, but though having being asked to by the Blitzle, the Zebstrika are too scared to think because they are humans. N, realising this when Shin attacks with his {{p|Pignite}}, jumps in the way and takes the attack instad, getting severely burned upon his arms. He says that despite being in pain, it's fine if to stop a Pokémon from being hurt, explaining his dream to create a world where Pokémon can live happily by using the power of legendary Pokémon.

Shin replies that it's a dream he'll support too, but N advises him to find his own dream. As they arrive at [[Dragonspiral Tower]], N and Shin are separated by a falling pillar. N suggests that they should each make their separate way to the top floor where the legendary Pokémon resides, but as Shin tries to ascend the tower, he is met by Togari who blocks him upon the orders of his "King"—to give him time to befriend Zekrom.

Finally, Shin arrives, and is surprised that no-one is there but N. N introduces Shin to his new friend who will fulfill his dream, {{p|Zekrom}}, this time stating in full that his dream is to free Pokémon from foolish humans and create a place they can live happily by making a country just for Pokémon. Shin realises his dream is the same as the dream of the "King" of [[Team Plasma]], to which N replies is him himself, and argues that there is no other choice as the world as it exists just gets Pokémon hurt. As he flies off upon Zekrom's back, he tells Shin that though he despises humans, Shin alone he'll allow to live in the world he creates.

In chapters three and four N is shown standing on the rubble of the Pokémon League having defeated the Elite Four and states [[Alder]] is next; and is explained by Alder that N told him that nobody but a Pokémon Trainer by the name of Shin could stand up to him, and sent Alder to help him become the Hero of Fire by controlling Reshiram.

In the final chapter Shin arrives at the secret headquarters of [[Team Plasma]], [[N's Castle]] to fight N. N decides that Shin is after all just another human who cannot hear the weeping voices of Pokémon, summoning Zekrom to do battle and easily defeating Shin, saying that the strength of the legendary Pokémon depend on how strong their hero's ideal or truth is, with his being the strongest having heard the weeping voices of Pokémon for so long, and the pain of separation will be only an instant of pain among a future free of it, as while humans live together with Pokémon, there will always be Pokémon hurt and crying somewhere.

Shin replies that if he was a real hero he'd save everyone, not just Pokémon, to which N replies that if that is true, show him his resolution through Reshiram. However, Shin gets defeated again, with him and Reshiram getting trapped under rubble, and {{p|Emboar}} unable to produce a flame. Yet he proclaims that he'll never give in until the very end, and Reshiram sets Emboar's fist on fire with its flame, to give it the power to attack through Zekrom's shield of thunder. However, as Emboar attempts to punch through it, instead it combines with the flame on his fist to become a piece of the Original Pokémon's power, a ball of flaming thunder, and Shin states that while N may be strong alone, Emboar's power now is a power they have only created by everyone working together, and Emboar punches out Zekrom.

Some time later, N lies together with Shin on the roof of his castle, realising that perhaps the world is not as black and white as he calculated, and that he will disband Team Plasma and rework his ideals over again from the start. Admitting that he too enjoyed their battle, he bids farewell to Shin as he flies off on Zekrom, wishing that perhaps one day they may meet and battle again.

====Pokémon====
N refuses to call the Pokémon he befriends "his Pokémon," instead naming them "his friends."

==Trivia==
{{bulbanews|Junichi Masuda reveals information on N}}
* The cube hanging from N's belt is a sliding puzzle similar to a {{wp|Void Cube}}, and has been in his possession since childhood. It's one of many design elements reflecting the character's mathematical motif, and also resembles the first iteration of a {{wp|Menger sponge}}, a geometric figure that simultaneously has infinite surface area and zero volume.
** N's concept artwork and the accompanying notes indicate that the puzzle cube might eventually become relevant to the game's plot and show that a central cube with a keyhole will appear when the puzzle is solved, locking away something mysterious in its core, which is implied to be a Pokémon.
* N, [[Bianca]], and [[Cheren]] are the only Trainers in {{v2|Black and White|s}} with animated battle sprites.
* Unlike most recurring characters, N battles with a completely different team in every appearance. This may stem from his belief that Pokémon should not be used as tools, as every Pokémon he uses (except for the last battle against him) can be found in the surrounding area.
** This is revealed to be true after using the [[Memory Link]] with Pokemon Black or White.
* N is the only Trainer to use an [[event Pokémon]].

Seven Sages

Unknowen900: /* Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 */

[[File:Seven Sages.png|right|thumb|256px|The Seven Sages in the opening of {{2v2|Black|White}}]]
The '''Seven Sages''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|七賢人|しちけんじん}}''' ''Seven Sages'') are notable ranking members of [[Team Plasma]]. They are a group of intelligent people from all over the {{pkmn|world}} gathered by [[Ghetsis]], who acts as their internal leader.

==In the games==
The sages are met individually throughout the games, but all of them are seen together in [[N's Castle]] where they block the way to N. All the [[Gym Leader]]s (with the exception of [[Cilan]], [[Chili]], and [[Cress]]) appear and clear the way to N. They typically refrain from battling, having {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt|Grunts}} do so for them.

After [[Ghetsis]] has been defeated, the player must help [[Looker]] find the remaining six sages all over [[Unova]]. Upon being found, each will give the player a [[TM]].

===Pokémon Black 2 and White 2===
The Seven Sages have a different role in the sequels.

Rood is encountered in [[Driftveil City]], living with [[Anthea and Concordia]] and several Grunts in the original Team Plasma's safehouse. After losing in a battle with the [[Player character|player]], he gives the player N's {{p|Zorua}}. Shortly afterward, he appears on [[Unova Route 6|Route 6]] after the player has a run in with the [[legendary Pokémon]], {{p|Cobalion}}. Later, he appears leading the members of the original Team Plasma against Ghetsis's new Team Plasma at the [[Giant Chasm]], occupying their forces to allow the player to reach Ghetsis himself.

[[Zinzolin]] has joined the new Team Plasma under Ghetsis's leadership, and battles the player several times. After the end of the game, he visits [[Undella Town]] and will give the player research conducted by Ghetsis that allows translation of the coded messages in the [[Abyssal Ruins]]. For reaching the end of the Abyssal Ruins, he will give the player a [[Big Pearl]], and subsequently depart.

Gorm appears in [[Pinwheel Forest]], while the player and [[Cheren]] are investigating there. He tries to sneak up on them much like he did to {{ga|Hilbert}}/{{ga|Hilda}} in Black and White in the [[Dreamyard]]. He speaks to the two briefly and leaves. Cheren follows him.

It is currently unknown where the other three sages are residing.

{{main|Ghetsis#Quotes|Ghetsis}}

=====Gorm=====
[[File:Gorm Adventures.png|thumb|Gorm in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
'''Pinwheel Forest'''
:''"How are you holding up, fellow subject of our king?"''
:''"It's not important. We can afford to abandon the Dragon Skull. According to the results of our research, this is not the legendary Pokémon for which Team Plasma is looking. It is completely unrelated. But we will not allow anyone to disrupt our plans and get away with it. We will fix it so you never interfere with us again."''
:''"I am one of the Seven Sages of Team Plasma. Ghetsis, another of the Seven Sages, will liberate Pokémon with words alone! The remainder of the Seven Sages have ordered their compatriots to take Pokémon with full force! But the odds are a little against us now. To you, the Bug Pokémon user [[Burgh]] and the Normal Pokémon user [[Lenora]], I say... Know your enemies, know yourself, and know you need not fear the result of a hundred battles... This time, we shall retreat quietly. To secure the liberation of Pokémon we will steal from Trainers! Even though you are Gym Leaders, we will not tolerate any further obstruction from you. In any case, we will settle this someday. I hope you are looking forward to that time as much as I..."''

'''N's Castle'''
:''"If you make a mistake and do not correct it, that is a second mistake."''
:''"A single fallen leaf signals the start of autumn. We know our history. The emergence of this castle is the harbinger of change in Unova..."''

'''Dreamyard'''
:''"Boo!"''
:''"Were you surprised? Oh, Trainer-who-destroyed-our-castle, I was quite surprised by you!"''
:''"If you surprise them, both Pokémon and people leave themselves open. While they're in a state of surprise, they can't use their powers like they normally would. Our intention was to surprise people by making our castle appear and showing off the legendary Pokémon... At that moment, we planned to deeply impress people's hearts with the awesome power of Team Plasma and the brilliance of our new world."''
:''"Now that I've seen the strength of spirit in you and the [[Gym Leader]]s, I wonder how effective that strategy would have been, after all. Maybe that strength of spirit is what's needed to take Pokémon to the next level? Hm... I'm sorry to have wasted your time with this silly conversation. Take this with you."''
:''"My lord N's dream... You were the one who put a stop to that. Please don't ever forget that."''
:''"{{p|Musharna}} is said to appear here. Its [[Dream Mist]] makes you see dreams, but they are nothing but illusions. The dreams you realize with your own abilities are the real dreams."''

=====Bronius=====
[[File:Bronius Adventures.png|thumb|Bronius in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
'''Castelia City'''
:''"I thought it would be humorous to prepare a hideout right in front of a Pokémon Gym, but we were detected more quickly than I imagined."''
:''"Yes?"''

'''N's Castle'''
:''"When the Way is forgotten, duty and justice appear."''
:''"Accursed Gym Leaders!"''
:''"You shall not interfere with Team Plasma... Or our king!"''

'''Chargestone Cave'''
:''"When I saw you in Castelia, I did not care about your existence. Here in the Chargestone Cave, Ghetsis tested your ability... Once more, we will test you to learn what it is you are. Team Plasma, come out!"''
:''"The Pokémon of our Team Plasma are also fighting for their Trainers. It was so obvious that I overlooked it... Thank you for reminding me of that. Here, I'd like you to take this."''
:''"Pokémon do their best for their Trainers even when they are injured. I wonder whether my lord N understands what that means?"''
:''"Those who left Team Plasma and are behaving with respect and understanding toward Pokémon... Them, please forgive! However, those who won't interact with Pokémon in a kind and honest way... Even I will never forgive them!"''

=====Rood=====
[[File:Rood Adventures.png|thumb|Rood in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
'''Castelia City'''
:''"What is it?"''

'''N's Castle'''
:''"Superior men understand what is right. Inferior men understand what will sell."''
:''"Constant dripping wears away the stone. I've been waiting in the abyss for this day. No one shall interfere!"''

'''Route 18'''
:''"It smells of the sea here. This place has the same ocean smell as where I was born..."''
:''"Ghetsis wandered the lands of this world all over, collecting knowledge of all kinds while searching for like-minded people. From the moment we met, he understood what I desired."''
:''"The ability to understand the minds and the needs of others... This is an ability that everyone needs to survive. My lord N is a kind and excellent person who understands the hearts of Pokémon. But, conversely, perhaps his ability to understand the hearts and feelings of people is not developed enough."''
:''"But... Even that was part of the perfection of Ghetsis's plan. When it comes to Ghetsis, I cannot separate the truths from the lies. See this? I received it from Ghetsis, but I no longer need it. I hope you can put it to good use."''
:''"Someday, if my lord N develops the ability to understand the feelings of people as well as Pokémon, I would like us to gather again. More than anything, I want to see N confront Ghetsis."''
:''"If that is what you desire..."''

=====Zinzolin=====
{{main|Zinzolin|Zinzolin}}

=====Giallo=====
[[File:Giallo Adventures.png|thumb|Giallo in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
'''Dragonspiral Tower'''
:''"It's finally time. Our lord N will become the hero! What?! Someone made it clear up here?! Now! Stop that Trainer! For our lord N! Everyone who isn't Team Plasma is an enemy! Use all your powers to take them out!"''
:''"The hero will open up the way to a new world! Which means you Trainers can all prepare to lose your Pokémon!"''

'''N's Castle'''
:''"Those in accord with Fate are preserved, and those who rebel against Fate perish."''
:''"Well... If anything should happen to our king, it would be disastrous. It would ruin Ghetsis's perfect plan! Our lord N will be disappointed, but the six of us shall defeat you here!"''
:''"You... You're Driftveil's...?!"''
:''"Ghetsis called us the chosen ones. He chose us and gathered us here so we can change the world! For us, defeat is impossible!"''

'''Route 14'''
:''"Greetings to you, strong Pokémon Trainer who came to Dragonspiral Tower."''
:''"Are you and {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|W}} building a mutual understanding?"'' {{tt|*|Unknown requirement.}}
:''"Are you not making friends with Reshiram{{sup|Bl}}/Zekrom{{sup|W}}?"'' {{tt|*|Default requirement.}}
:''"There is a saying... If somewhere in this world there is someone who understands you, it feels like that person is right beside you, even if you're as far apart as the end of the land and the top of the sky. As my lord N and his Pokémon understand one another, so, too, do you and your Pokémon understand one another. Which is my reason for giving you this..."''
:''"The legend of Unova is about Pokémon and people working together to build a new world! The message is that simple and that strong. If changing the world makes you a hero, anyone can become a hero. As each of us changes what is in our power to change, so the world itself changes."''
:''"Indeed, I shall. Team Plasma changed me, but it could not change the world. I'm looking forward to seeing how you lot will do."''

=====Ryoku=====
[[File:Ryoku Adventures.png|thumb|Ryoku in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
'''Relic Castle'''
:''"Ghetsis told us that once again we should test how much power you have. We will see if you can defeat Team Plasma!"''
:''"Go! Hurry and fall through the flowing sands!"''

'''N's Castle'''
:''"One can lose the forest for the trees."''
:''"We can only do our best and leave the rest to fate. We've done everything in our power. All we can do now is believe in our lord N...and wait."''

'''Relic Castle'''
:''"I was planning to catch the Pokémon called {{p|Volcarona}} that lives in this Relic Castle and present it to Ghetsis. But the [[Shadow Triad]] said that Ghetsis has gone somewhere, right?"''
:''"The Seven Sages... We always said we were complete when the seven of us were together. Now I don't know the meaning of those words anymore. I guess I don't mind, even if we were being used, but the dream is over."''
:''"I no longer need this. Ghetsis gave it to me, but I have no use for it."''
:''"This Relic Castle and our own castle are both crumbling... But what's different is that this Relic Castle is the remains of a civilization. And our castle left nothing behind..."''
:''"Understood. But we don't know much about Ghetsis or our lord N! We haven't even figured out if they are father and son..."''

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Seven Sages Adventures.png|thumb|230px|right|The Seven Sages in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
The Seven Sages debuted as a group in ''[[ABW07|Letting Go]]''. They have appeared separately in many locations, mainly supervising Team Plasma Grunts in their various missions.

====Ghetsis====
{{main|Ghetsis#In the Pokémon Adventures manga|Ghetsis}}
The first sage to be seen was Ghetsis in ''[[ABW06|An Odd Speech]]'', discoursing over Pokémon liberation to the citizens of [[Accumula Town]].

====Gorm====
In ''[[ABW15|The Mystery of the Missing Fossil]]'', {{adv|Black}} was investigating the disappearance of a [[Dragon Skull|Dragon Fossil]] from [[Nacrene Museum]]. He found the skeleton in Pinwheel Forest, where the thieves were lurking, three grunts who met him at Dreamyard and Gorm. The sage was impressed by Black's skill on finding their location and, seeing his potential, commanded the skeleton to attack the boy. Given its fast and accurate move, Black was able to identify the controlling Pokémon and defeated it with the help of [[Burgh]]'s {{p|Whirlipede}}. Before escaping with the grunts, Gorm revealed that Team Plasma is seeking for a {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon to fight by their side.

|desc={{p|Cofagrigus}} was used by Gorm to take control of and animate the Dragonite Fossil. Gorm had Cofagrigus hide itself among the other artifacts so anyone who would try to stop them would be confused as to what was controlling the Fossil. However, their plan was foiled by Black and Burgh, and Cofagrigus was found out. When Gorm told Cofagrigus to retreat, Burgh stopped it with his Whirlipede.}}

====Bronius====
The next sage to appear in mission was Bronius. In ''[[ABW19|The Case of the Missing Pokémon]]'', he was responsible for the kidnapping of various Pokémon in [[Castelia City]], including {{adv|Bianca}}'s {{p|Litwick}}. When he is found at a building right next to [[Castelia Gym]], which is "the root of the human evil" in his words, he reveals that Team Plasma intends to bring "the [[N|hero]] and the {{p|Zekrom|black lightning bolt}}" to [[Unova]].

====Ryoku====
In ''[[ABW22|To Make a Musical]]'', Ryoku was shown at Desert Resort, where he was waiting for his grunts to reunite so that they could enter Relic Castle. As one of them was unconscious after being defeated by [[Grimsley]]'s {{p|Bisharp}}, Ryoku decided to leave him behind and go inside, looking for {{p|Volcarona}}. He was last seen with a [[RageCandyBar]] in his hands, in front of some {{p|Darmanitan}} in {{a|Zen Mode}}.

====Zinzolin====
When {{adv|Cheren}}'s {{p|Tranquill}} was stolen, he went with Black to Cold Storage, where many stolen [[Poké Ball]]s were being kept by Team Plasma. Zinzolin was seen there, guiding the grunts in their deed.

====Rood====
Rood appeared after a fight broke out between {{p|Tornadus}} and {{p|Thundurus}} that was quelled by {{p|Landorus}}. After Landorus took away the other two Pokémon and fled into the sky, Rood caught them in Poké Balls.

==Trivia==
* They share noticeable similarities with the {{wp|Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove}}.
* Six of the Seven Sages have quoted proverbs from several Chinese philosophers.
** Sage Zinzolin quotes a proverb from ''{{wp|Mencius (book)|Mencius}}'' and a line from ''{{wp|Tao Te Ching}}'' at N's Castle.
** Sage Gorm quotes a proverb from Sun Tzu's ''{{wp|The Art of War}}'' at Pinwheel Forest, and a line from both The {{wp|Analects}} and ''{{wp|Huainanzi}}'' at N's Castle.
** Sage Bronius quotes another line from ''Tao Te Ching'' at N's Castle.
** Sage Giallo quotes another line from ''Mencius'' at N's Castle.
** In the Japanese version, Sage Ryoku quotes a line from ''{{wp|Zhuangzi (book)|Zhuangzi}}'' at N's Castle. In both versions, he also quotes a proverb by {{wp|Song Dynasty}} philosopher Hu Yin at N's Castle.
** Sage Rood quotes another proverb from the Analects and made a reference to a Chinese idiom at N's Castle.
* With the exception of [[Ghetsis]], their names are references to the colors of the {{wp|rainbow}}.
* The TMs given by the sages are all for [[stats|stat]]-raising moves.
** Of these, Rood is the only sage that gives a [[TM]] that raises the user's stats by a total of one stage. The other TMs given either raise one stat two stages or two stats one stage.

'''Zinzolin''' (Japanese: '''ヴィオ''' ''Vio'') is one of the [[Seven Sages]] of [[Team Plasma]].

==In the games==
{{spoilers}}
In {{game|Black and White|s}}, Zinzolin first appears in the [[Cold Storage]] with other {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s, who were planning something. During that time, he had complained about the cold and when the player and [[Cheren]] appeared, he ordered the grunts to drive them away. When they failed, [[Clay]] and a several {{tc|Worker}}s arrived and arrested him and the Grunts. Later, in [[Driftveil City]], [[Ghetsis]] came and forced Clay to release them. At [[N's Castle]], he and the other [[Seven Sages|sages]] (except Ghetsis) appeared to block the player's way to [[N]]. However, he and the other sages were confronted by the [[Gym Leader]]s of the [[Unova League]] (except [[Cilan]], [[Chili]] and [[Cress]]), who held up the sages to allow the player to pass.

After defeating [[Ghetsis]], Zinzolin can be found at the Cold Storage. He remarks on how odd the player is and tells the player about his thoughts, then gives the player {{TM|01|Hone Claws}}. When [[Looker]] arrives to arrest him, he goes willingly.

Zinzolin reappears as a major antagonist in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]]. He has joined the new Team Plasma formed by Ghetsis and now acts as one of the group's public leaders, along with [[Colress]]. Though he appears several times, usually when the {{player}} has major confrontations with Team Plasma, Zinzolin is not fought until the player reaches [[Lacunosa Town]]. He confronts the player after Team Plasma uses the [[Plasma Frigate]] and {{p|Kyurem}} to freeze [[Opelucid City]]. He is also seen in the [[Giant Chasm]] leading Ghetsis's forces against [[Rood]] and several members of the original Team Plasma opposing them.

After the player enters the [[Hall of Fame]] and defeats [[Hugh]] in [[Undella Town]], Zinzolin appears there, dressed in new set of robes. He expresses remorse for his actions and gives the player books of Ghetsis's research that allow translation of the messages in the [[Abyssal Ruins]]. He will give the player a [[Big Pearl]] upon returning from the end of the Abyssal Ruins, and depart.

:''"The experiences of joy and suffering are a vital part of being alive. Ghetsis gave me the sensation of being truly alive... What did he mean to accomplish? That isn't what's important."''
:''"Right now, I'm shivering. I'm suffering, but I'm alive."''
:''"Pokémon and people live by being together and relying on one another. That might be how you feel. If that's so, is it necessary to separate people and Pokémon? By talking to you, I've discovered that there's much I need to think about... I wish I had more to give you in thanks... Here, take this."''
:''"My lord N said that he wanted to make Pokémon perfect... But, even if the relationship between Pokémon and people stayed as it now is, Pokémon can aspire to perfection..."''
:''"It's too cold and I'm already tired of shivering in here. If you'll give me some time to think, I'll tell you what I know. So...take me with you."''

==More Information==
This article is missing a minor detail. After catching all of N's Pokemon, a page which needs to be created, talking to him again will cause him to give you another item and depart. I do not recall what the item is. {{unsigned|Unknowen900}}
:He gives you an item that allows you to translate the Undella Ruins iirc. As for the N's Pokemon page, you can always make it yourself in the userspace so it can be made quicker.--[[User:Funktastic~!|It's Funktastic~!]] ([[User talk:Funktastic~!|talk]]) 07:13, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
::I'm sure he gives you a second item. The notes seem to be a dummy item he gives to you during the first time you talk to him. He give you a second item after talking to him with all of N's Pokemon.[[User:Unknowen900|Unknowen900]] ([[User talk:Unknowen900|talk]]) 08:41, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Catch rate

2012-07-23T08:33:11Z

Unknowen900:

The computer science term for "Floor" is, in fact, "int(", which simply truncates the number. "round(" would make a value like 6.9 become 7; "int(" would make it 6. I believe Zhen is correct in this case. ~Evan
:What was that in reference to? - Jshadias
::Zhen's edit and your subsequent reversion, if I read the history right. ~Evan
:::He was just editing it to make it consistent with my other changes. In any case, the after revision is the right-side column. In any case, trunc() and floor() are the same, but int() is ambiguous. It simply means conversion to integer, which could be rounding or truncating. Wish I could get TeX-rendering working... - [[User:Zhen Lin|刘 (劉) 振霖]] 09:40, 12 Feb 2005 (GMT)

== Is this formula accurate? ==

When using the formula

Chance = floor (((( TotalHP * 4 ) - ( CurrentHP * 2 )) * CatchRate ) / TotalHP ) + Status + 1

with Pokémon with high catch rates (ex. Pidgey and Rattata), the formula says that there should be about a 200% chance to catch a Pidgey at 100% HP. But there isn't a 200% chance or even a 100% chance. I caught 5 Pokémon on Route 1 of FireRed without weakening any of them and I used 15 Pokéballs. Despite the sample size, the fact that the Pokémon escaped even once is enough to raise concern about the formula. Any other thoughts on the matter? -Wild Eep

:Experimental data isn't the same as theoretical results. But then again, methinks you might be misinterpreting the results of using this formula. The formula does not return a percentage, it returns a number, and in order to capture a Pokémon, the randomly generated number between 0 and 255 (or possibly a higher number than that, say, 511) has to be below the number you obtain from this formula. But I'm not the game mechanics expert. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 02:16, 25 November 2005 (CST)

Hmm. . . using the formula for any pokémon at any level with full HP and no status ailments with a catch rate of 255 gives an output of 511. Every site I could find has the exact same formula, and they all say the random number is between 0-255. Those that site sources site [[user:Meowth346|Meowth346]] as their source, so maybe he knows, or can find out. [[User:Slim|Slim]] 15:54, 29 November 2005 (CST)

:Indeed, there seems to be something off with either this formula or the listed CatchRates. Trying to catch a Pokemon simply by chucking a normal Pokeball at it (that is, no damage done, no status changes) simplifies as so:

:Chance = floor (Poké Ball * (((( TotalHP * 4 ) - ( CurrentHP * 2 )) * CatchRate ) / TotalHP ) + Status + 1)

:Chance = floor (1 * (((( TotalHP * 4 ) - ( TotalHP * 2 )) * CatchRate ) / TotalHP ) + 0 + 1)

:Chance = floor ((( TotalHP * 2 * CatchRate ) / TotalHP ) + 1)

:Chance = floor (( 2 * CatchRate ) + 1)

:For any CatchRate of 128 or higher, Chance is at least 257. The random number between 0 and 255 this is compared to will always be less than this, and as a result any Pokemon with a CatchRate of 128 or higher should always be caught simply by chucking a Pokeball at it. Yet this does not seem to be the case -- you can't always catch an Abra this way, despite them having a CatchRate of 200. This should give them a Chance of 401, and thus a 100% catch rate. [[User:Wild Eep|Wild Eep]] and [[User:Slim|Slim]] seem to have noticed the same thing. [[User:Opaopa13|Opaopa13]] 05:12, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

::I just noticed something -- note the following line in the article:
:::'''CurrentHP''' is either the wild Pokémon's current HP, or if its current HP is greater than 255, use ''floor ( '''CurrentHP''' / 4)''.
::It doesn't make sense to simply replace '''CurrentHP''' with ''floor ( '''CurrentHP''' / 4)'' -- that would make for a very strange function, where a Pokemon with 256 HP would be easier to catch than one with 68. Replacing all of ''('''CurrentHP''' * 2 )'' just makes the problem worse. This suggests a typographical error somewhere in either the formula or its explanation.

::I had a hunch, and replaced ''(( '''TotalHP''' * 4 ) - ( '''CurrentHP''' * 2 ))'' with ''(( '''TotalHP''' / 4 ) - ( '''CurrentHP''' / 2 ))''. Unfortunately, that's not right either -- according to that forumla, a Pokemon above 50% health will have a negative Chance value and thus can NEVER be caught. We know that is not the case. However, I suspect something along those lines is the solution. Perhaps one of those multiplications is supposed to be a division instead. Is there any healthy chunk of experimental data to look at? [[User:Opaopa13|Opaopa13]] 05:24, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

The sensible thing to do is to ask someone who knows how to use a debugger/disassembler to investigate this. Unfortunately, the only person I know who can do this is pika. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 06:57, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Examining an emulated copy of Pokemon Red, I did, indeed, find it impossible to NOT catch any Rattata or Pidgey I threw a Pokeball at. I was more than ready to believe this formula were true. But, as Opaopa13 said, we know it isn't, because anyone who has played the Red or Blue versions knows Abra is not so easy to catch.

Interestingly, I tried the same thing on a Pidgey in an emulated copy of the Gold version (throwing a ball at it when it was at full health), and failed to capture it until my third try.

I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO BELIEVE! - Pineapple

:It would be easy to explain this if Abra's catch rate was just wrong, but the catch rates must have been data-mined, so that's out. Allow me to be completely speculative here, but perhaps it's something like a rare few Pokemon having an additional chance to escape capture? Or certain catch rates that are influenced by what badges you have? It would be odd to have something like that when the programmers could just alter something's catch rate instead, though...

:Well, we _know_ we get the wrong results for Abra. I'm guessing there was some minor typo somewhere, or else some minor modifier to the formula we aren't aware of.

:On a side-note, I'm still really confused by the "if CurrentHP > 256, use (CurrentHP / 4) instead" thing. I just can't imagine any reason, technical or modelling-wise, where "use CurrentHP = 255" doesn't work just as well or better. Or at least divide by 2! (Pokemon HP never exceeds 1024, right? Thinking in terms of the number of bits it takes to represent these numbers...). [[User:Opaopa13|Opaopa13]] 19:22, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

I think, we should just remove the formula from the page until we can get some authoritative analysis, or otherwise from experimental data. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 06:17, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

I strongly suspect that the only problem with the formula on the site is the 2. I know that's how the old equation simplifies, so the original was probably off as well. 1+INT(B*(2-P)*C+S) makes perfect sense. Then a Pidgey or other Pokemon with a catch rate of 255 is guaranteed to be caught, since at full health and no ailments, you get 256. Any number from 0-255 will be lower than that, so you'll always catch it. On the other hand, a legendary Pokemon with 1/10th of its health left, paralyzed, with an ultra ball thrown an it, is 1+INT(2*1.9*3+5), or 17. 17/256 (since it's a less than roll, not less than or equal to) is about 6.6% (1 in 15). That seems about right, given that it's taken an average of 15-20 ultra balls for me to catch most of the legendaries. The current formula says it would be 28/256, or 10.9% (about 1 in 9), which is definitely not right. Easiest way to test would be to repeatedly try catching something with a catch rate around 120, using a standard ball, and see if it happens about half the time. [[User:Arrkhal|Arrkhal]] 03:50, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

== The correct formula ==

Apparently someone at Smogon found an extremely complex formula on a Japanese website. A good friend of mine simplified it and it seems to be 100% Accurate:

( ( 1 - CurHP * 2 / ( MaxHP * 3 ) ) * Catch * Ball * Status ) / 256

Status:
*1 for Normal
*1.5 for Poisoned, Paralyzed, or Burned
*2 for Asleep or Frozen

Examples:
*A level 2 Rattata, with 13/13 HP, catch rate 255, using a Pokeball. No status effects.
**( ( 1 - 13 * 2 / ( 13 * 3 ) ) * 255 * 1 * 1 ) / 256
**= 0.33203125
**~ 33%
*A level 70 Regigigas, with 1/234 HP, frozen, catch rate 3, using a Dusk ball.
**( ( 1 - 1 * 2 / ( 234 * 3 ) ) * 3 * 4 * 2 ) / 256
**= 0.093482906
**~ 9%

:This does appear to be more reasonable, however, I would like to see this so-called "extremely complex" formula. There may be some rounding going on which affects the precision of the results. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 12:05, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

:::As I suspected, there is more to it. It seems that the formula result is interpreted in two different ways depending on what the value is. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 12:25, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

== Formula is nowhere near correct ==

I just tried catching a Lv. 13 Feebas at full health (30 HP). I threw three dusk balls at it (while in the cavern, of course), and they all broke. On the fourth try I was able to catch it. It has a catch rate of 255, so according to this formula I have maybe a 400% chance of catching it at full health. Even going by the catch rate alone, I should have had a 100% chance of catching it. This wasn't an atypical situation either. I tried catching a few more before and after this one, and I generally wasn't able to capture them until I weakened them (I caught maybe one or two without hurting it). Once I threw an ultra ball at one, and it immediately broke. I think the pokemon's HP ratio definitely has a lot more to do with catching it than what this formula suggests.

If there are any sources on that other function that someone submitted in here (I don't know how to reply to comments, sorry :<), then that would be really nice. But I tried that equation on the above-mentioned feebas and got (1-(30*2)/(30*3))*255*4*1)/256 (the pokeball page on here says that the dusk ball is 4x in caverns, and Wikipedia says it's twice as good as an ultraball, so I'm going with 4x), which equals 340/256, or 1.328125. This is still above a 100% catch rate on something that seemed like it was maybe 50%. Even going with the assumption that the dusk ball is only 3x better than a pokeball, I still got 255/256, which awfully close to 100%. So unless the dusk ball didn't have its 3x/4x effect (maybe from me fishing in the cavern instead of walking in the cavern?), I don't think this function is true either.

--[[User:Stele007|Stele007]] 18:59, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
:Were you surfing by any chance? There has to be some way to explain this. Feebas is extremely easy to capture regardless. My friend caught several using Quick balls (4x for the first 5 turns) immediately at the start of battle and none of them missed. If you were, perhaps the Dusk balls did not work because of surfing. I know they do work while fishing... [[User:DanPMK|MK]] 06:25, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

==Safari Zone==

There's something I'd like to ask. In the [[Safari Zone]], you can throw bait and mud in [[Generation IV]]. These are said to make Pokémon easier to catch. However, does anybody know of how EXACTLY do they change the catch rate (Or make them easier to catch somehow)? Thank you. - [[User:JMS|JMS]] 21:27, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
:Actually, I think they alter the percent chance that the Pokémon'll run for it/accuracy of the ball. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]{{ani|155|Fire echy}}[[User:TTEchidna/GSDS|GSDS!]]''' 22:53, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

::Actually, the equation is posted on the Japanese wikipage for Capture Rate:
::Solve for S (S = Safari)

::S=(Capture Rate×100)÷1275×Rock Compensation÷Food Compensation

::Rock Compensation = Times rock/mud is thrown at Pokémon × 2
::Food Compensation = Times food is thrown at Pokémon × 2

::Then solve for a, which is a special equation for this time around:

::a=(S×1275)÷100

::Just keep in mind that the more mud/rocks you throw, the easier it is to capture, but the easier it is to run away. The more food you throw, the harder it is to capture but it'll stay around longer. - [[User:Gimmetokyo|GimmeTOKYO]]

== Easier explanation? ==

I think there should be an easier explanation included in this article, something of a tl;dr section. To me, this is all mathematical mumbo-jumbo, and I commonly fail anything and everything algebraic. I could honestly care less how the game determines how a pokemon is caught, I just know that I need to lower the HP of the wild Pokémon and possibly inflict a status problem on it to catch it. Also, on major thing that's missing from the article is it doesn't explain if a higher number for a catch rate is better or worse. It may be a dumb question to ask (but I don't honestly get it, either) but you quite often have to write for the five-year-old poké-tards that will be here.

::Are you sure? Because if it works just like I think you're saying, you just replace the Ball Multiplier with a flat "+30" rate (or whatever technically applies).

:: I doubt that "order of operations" applies here; it's relatively easy to just apply the +30 before the multiplications coding-wise (much like using parenthesis). One would need to look at the game code somehow, probably, to see for certain. [[User:AySz88|AySz88]] 12:07, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

Which is more effective? [[User:Ht14|'''''ht''''']][[User talk:Ht14|''14'']] 01:05, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
:it depends, i know squat about the catch rate, but i do know the luxury ball increases how fast the pokemon's friendship raises while the friendly(?) ball gives an immediate boost... by how much i'm not quite sure. - [[User:Geomexis|Geomexis]] 12:59, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
::Luxury Balls increase the rate at which your pokemon becomes friendly from actions as outlined in the [[Happiness]] article. Friend Balls automatically set the pokemon's happiness to 200 (instead of the usual 70) when caught. Both poke balls have a catch rate of 1x. Max happiness is 255 and happiness-based evolutions happen at 220+ so usually the Friend Ball will get you there quickly for cheap. ~[[User:mjblink|mjblink]]{{Unsigned|mjblink}}

== Reworking the ''a'' term ==

In every location in this article that I can tell, it would be clearer if ''a'' were already divided by 255, i.e. substituting ''a''/255 = ''a''/(2^8 - 1) in each formula with a new variable. (Even that odd-looking 16711680 is 255 * 65536 .) Then ''a'' simply becomes equal to the approximation to ''p'' and there is an obvious intuitive meaning to it. I used this idea in the new lede, and it'd probably be clearer to do this in the rest of the article as well.

Is there some reason why ''a'' was defined this way that I don't know of? [[User:AySz88|AySz88]] 11:39, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

== Trivia on HP ==

There's a bit in the "Trivia" section about high-HP Pokémon being easier to catch at 1 HP than lower-HP ones. This is true, but it also states that "Pokémon with higher HP stats (such as Chansey) are easier to capture when their HP is reduced, despite low catch rates compared to others." But there isn't a big-enough effect to overwhelm the catch rate except at very very low HP levels. The equation in the current article can be reorganized this way:
a = catch_rate * ball_bonus * status_bonus * (1 - 2/3 * (currentHP / maxHP) )
And at 1 HP:
a = catch_rate * ball_bonus * status_bonus * (1 - 2/(3 * maxHP))
And comparing the HP penalties at 1 HP:
* 10 HP max: 1 - 2/(3 * 10) = 1 - 2/30 = 6.7% penalty (i.e. 0.933x)
* 20 HP max: 1 - 2/(3 * 20) = 1 - 2/60 = 3.3% penalty
* 100HP max: 1 - 2/(3 * 100) = 1 - 2/300 = 0.66% penalty
* 200HP max: 1 - 2/(3 * 200) = 1 - 2/600 = 0.33% penalty
... Once you get past 20ish HP, shaving off bits of that last 3% of (multiplicative) penalty is pretty negligible, equivalent to around 7 points of catch rate at most (3% of 255). [[User:AySz88|AySz88]] 10:40, 25 December 2009 (UTC)

== Generation I? ==

In Generation I, the mechanisms are somewhat different. For example, the number of shakes doesn't seem to be determined randomly and a Poké Ball can even entirely miss a target. Do the Gen. I games also use a completely different formula or does it work the same way as currently described in the article? {{unsigned|Socob}}
:The formula is definitely different in Generation I - I think Pokémon with very high catch rate (like Pidgey) were more difficult to catch, and Pokémon with very low catch rate (like Articuno) were easier to catch. By the way, the number of shakes has not been determined randomly since at least the beginning of Generation IV. [[User:Ultraflame|Ultraflame]] 16:06, 16 May 2010 (UTC)
::I thought so. It would be nice if we had some information about this, but I don't think that's very easy to get. About the shaking - I'm not sure if that's also what you meant, but what I was referring to by "not randomly" in Generation I is that a Ball will always shake the same amount of times on a Pokémon as long as you don't change its HP/status condition (unless it's caught). -- [[User:Socob|Socob]] ( [[User_talk:Socob|Talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Socob|Contribs]] ) 10:22, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

== Trivia ==
Somewhere else on this site, I read that the lowest possible catch rate is 3 since if it were any lower, the Master ball would have a chance of failing. http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/List_of_Pokemon_by_catch_rate#Trivia [[User:KurosakisTwin|KurosakisTwin]] 17:22, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
:False. The Master Ball bypasses the formula entirely, so even if the catch rate were 0, the it would still catch the Pokémon. --[[User:A magical me|a_magical_me]] 23:09, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
::How do you know that? As far as I know, the Master Ball simply uses a value of 255 for the 'BonusBall' variable in the formula.
::With this, if all the other factors in the formula multiplied would result in a number less than one, 'a' would be less than 255 and thus, the Pokémon would have a chance of escaping. Quoting from the article, "The minimum value for 'a' (for a Pokémon with full health) would be ⅓ × catch rate." Since the result of the formula without the BonusBall component has to be at least one for the Master Ball to work reliably, this means that the catch rate must at least be 3 (as ⅓ × 3 = 1).
::This seems to be reasonable evidence to me as to why we've never seen catch rates lower than 3. -- [[User:Socob|Socob]] ( [[User_talk:Socob|Talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Socob|Contribs]] ) 12:29, 7 August 2010 (UTC)
:::Also, I'm pretty sure that the game wouldn't make an exception for the master ball. That would result in a lot more code, and therefore it's just easier to not make more code and make the lowest catch rate 3 so that the Master Ball can catch anything. [[User:KurosakisTwin|KurosakisTwin]] 09:01, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
::::Socob, I know because it's what [http://upokecenter.com/games/rs/guides/catchrate.php UPC says] and it's what [http://no2.pic.bz/document/ball.html the reference] in [[Catch rate#References|the article]] says. Also because I have read the relevant code in both Diamond and HeartGold, and I can tell you that the Master Ball is simply not implemented in the way you suggest.
:::: KurosakisTwin, it does not require "a lot more code", just a couple lines—a small <code>if</code> statement—and is what any sane programmer would do.
:::: And here is something to think about: the lowest catch rate has been 3 since the beginning, way back in Red and Blue, when a [http://upokecenter.com/games/rby/guides/catchrate.php completely different algorithm] was used. --[[User:A magical me|a_magical_me]] 07:33, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
:::::Even UPC and the reference have their sources (which might be false), and even if they aren't, no matter how it's actually calculated in the games' codes, the Master Ball works without fail, so the statements on UPC don't necessarily indicate the actual calculations.
:::::Still, if you have viewed the code as you say, there's not much I can argue against that. All of what I've said above was, of course, simply evidence that pointed in the direction of a Master Ball with a value of 255. Naturally, the catch rates of 3 might be there to prevent "a" from being below 1 for entirely different reasons. If "a" is actually rounded down to an integer (which is actually stated in the article), then it would have to be at least 1 for the formula to work. However, this seems strange considering your last statement about the algorithm in Generation I. I haven't looked at it closely, but I guess it also needed catch rates of at least 3. I wonder, though, why the developers would go through the trouble of changing the algorithm, but leaving in the necessity of those catch rates of three or higher.

I belive from what i've read and when it happened to me,that there's a not so small chance (I don't know how high), that the pokeball will, when thrown, let out a woosh (a higher pitched on than normaly), absorb a pokemon, let out a metalic sound (ping a little like its captured), shake(a fast shake not a roll) in mid-air, fall down like usualy, then shake only once (not 3 times like usually), and have because of that idk probably about 3 times the capture ratio i suppose.

== Trainer pokemon level ==

I've been thinking about it for quite some time now, but pokemon are easier to capture depending on the level of the pokemon you battle it with.

I tried to catch a pokemon with a lv.5 and lv.8 pokemon and i couldn't catch it with ultraballs in 5 tries, than i swaped it for lv.75 pokemon and it worked on first try.

So could the level of the trainer's pokemon also apply somewhere in the formula?
[[User:Codebracker|Codebracker]]

:5 tries is not NEARLY enough trials to draw any kind of conclusion from. If you really want to test this, you're going to have to set up a comprehensive experiment and run it thousands of times.

== Doubt Generation III Algorithm ==
I'm starting to doubt the generation III algorithm. These are my findings in FireRed. I calculated for a paralyzed lvl 50 Moltres at 1 HP (exactly 1 HP due to endure) with a maximum HPmax of 165 (courtesy of Pokemon.Marriland.com) and a capture rate of 3 with an Ultra Ball. 
A = (3x165-2x1)x3x2/3/156x1.5 = 8 (rounded down) 
B = (2^16-1)xA^(1/4)/(255)^(1/4) = 27581 (rounded down) 
This gives a success rate of: 
(27581 / 65535)^4 = 0.031 (rounded down) or 3.1% 
At the moment I have thrown 400 (FOUR HUNDRED!) Ultra Balls, and still not captured it. 
The chance of that happening would be (1-0.031)^400 = 0.000002902 or 1:344550 
Please tell me I made a mistake in my calculation. It lies rather far outside the normal 0.05 error margin for experimental testing of hypotheses. 
I redid the same sort of testing for Zapdos, I didn't calculate my exact chances, this time I didn't manage to catch it in 200 tries. 
[[User:Ghostbird|Ghostbird]] 00:11, 25 November 2011 (UTC) EDITED: [[User:Ghostbird|Ghostbird]] 12:41, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

I retried catching Moltres and this time I caught it after 15-20 tries. (I wasn't counting) 
The only differences I knew of:
* I had defeated team rocket in Saffron and Giovanni in Viridian's gym.
* I was facing it with a pokémon over lvl 50. (However I caught Articuno using a lvl 30-ish pokemon)
* It was at more than 1 HP (he had a two pixel health bar).

I retried catching Zapdos and this time I did 200 fruitless tries. I noticed that though it had very little health left, it almost always broke free at the first check. 
Something that you should know:
* I've been using a state reload system to quickly retry catching when the capture failed. (Otherwise these capture tests, which require as much attempts as possible, are infeasible.)

I managed to Capture Zapdos on try 41 after reloading the original save (not a state save), (re)initiating combat and then using the reload state method. This time it generally broke free much later, often passing two shake checks and only breaking free at the last check, until I captured it. 

Hypothesis:
* There's something that influences catch rate, which kicks in before you are at the [Use|Cancel] screen after selecting the capture device (Ultra Ball). 
[[User:Ghostbird|Ghostbird]] 17:55, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

* I believe your problem is the fact that you are using the same save state over and over. Typically, random number generators (RNG) initialize with a single random number called the seed and derive subsequent random values using a mathematical formula. When you save a state on your emulator, you are also saving the current state of the RNG used. So theoretically, you are asking the RNG for a random number in the same exact state each time, resulting in the same result every time you reload. I think this is why you managed to capture your Zapados some time after reloading the original save (new random seed). I'm not sure exactly how you used the reload state method after reinitializing combat. Did you have to hard reload the game 41 times or did you reload once and use the save state 41 times? Please elaborate on this. [[User:Invgamma|Invgamma]] 20:45, 23 December 2011 (UTC)

== Investigation of the RNG ==

I recently thought about the specific cases where the catch formula does not seem to describe the behavior of certain Pokemon. On review, I noticed that the catch formula assumes that every random number generated is completely independent of every other random number. If the random number were using some sort of non-deterministic input to calculate a new seed every time a number is requested, this certainly would be true; however, this is normally not the case.

Consider the case of an encounter with a rare Pokemon with a somewhat high catch rate. Assume that the game finds a new random seed whenever an encounter is supposed to happen (probably sometime before) and uses that number to both determine the Pokemon encountered and to seed further random numbers. When you ask the RNG to generate the next couple random numbers, they are completely dependent on the algorithm used and the seed. With a rare Pokemon, the number of random seeded values that result in an encounter with it is sizable, but smaller than a common Pokemon. If the RNG is not reseeded, the number of possible scenarios (with strings of random numbers) greatly decreases. In this case, it could simply be a mathematical oddity (of the algorithm) where the select few seeds that allows an encounter with a rare Pokemon has subsequent random values that allow it to easily be caught (or even possibly more difficult to catch).

If this is the case, then the rarity of each Pokemon can easily influence catch probabilities by "shaping" the subsequent numbers (by pure mathematical accident). Some random values might even be impossible for, let's say, the first pokeball thrown right after an encounter of a rarer Pokemon.
[[User:Invgamma|Invgamma]] 21:02, 23 December 2011 (UTC)

* Just ran a couple of scenarios on an emulated version of Pokemon White. If I load save states right before encountering a Pokemon (a legendary that you can approach), you can get different random seeds for the battle (first action resulted differently each time). This probably means that the seed for the battle is determined based on conditions right when you encounter the pokemon. [[User:Invgamma|Invgamma]] 23:58, 23 December 2011 (UTC)

:Just to let you know, I've done the investigation already :) Check Smogon's RNG Research thread[http://www.smogon.com/forums/showpost.php?p=3698857&postcount=765] to get filled in on how the game seeds the battle RNG and (approximately) does the majority of battle RNG operations. RNG is only reseeded between battles. Every game uses 4 random numbers for the shake calculations, the only thing new in gen 5 is the critical capture calc.
:First it calculates if critical capture, then the shake/capture values. If result < CV, pass check. Total of 4 for regular catch, 1 for CC.

== A comment on Critical Capture ==

Having read through the article and especially the section describing the critical capture, it occurred to me that since it usually uses three shake checks, it is cubing the base probability of capture. By only using one shake check, it does not get cubed, which is why it allows capture to occur easier. However, the amount it increases capture rate is dependent on how difficult it is to capture in the first place. Another way to think about what I previously said is to take any specific set of conditions (a species in the wild, how much HP it has out of its total HP, and if it has any status ailments) and calculate the probability of catching it with any one type of ball. You could then take that final probability and, assuming that the same exact conditions and ball are used, a critical capture will increase the chances of capture to the cube root of the capture probability without a critical capture. This relationship means that the lower the capture rate is in specific conditions, the more difference a critical will make in the probability of catching it.

A couple examples would be if a legendary pokemon is attempting to be caught in specific conditions that would create a normal capture probability of 1%, if it is instead a critical capture, that will increase to a 21.5% capture probability. However, at higher capture probability this difference is much smaller. If there is an easily captured pokemon at low health, with a status ailment, and the normal capture probability is 90%, a critical capture in the same circumstances would mean a 96.5% capture probability.

Is this worth adding into the article, or am I just having too much fun with the math?[[User:Morranr|Mor'ranr]] 16:07, 19 January 2012 (UTC)

:It would be cool to see the adjusted probability of that helping, but I don't think it would be one dimensional because of the different critical capture rates.

:I definitely think it is useful to point out the relationship, and the difference in effect between Pokémon with low rates and high rates.

:: Oops, no, was accidentally looking at a different generation. [[User:AySz88|AySz88]] 07:40, 25 February 2012 (UTC)
::: Fourth roots and third roots never happen in game. The b equation listed is just a probability of you catching (ie all the shake compares lumped together). It does a*0x100 > rand(0,65535) for a pass shake calc. 4 times for gen 3-4, 3x for gen 5 after criticalcapture. That's the one gripe I have about this page, the mathematical approximations aren't what the game does. [[User:Kaphotics|Kaphotics]] 19:22, 25 February 2012 (UTC)
:::: I'm not sure what you're saying here. Yes, the algorithm used for a shake check is not literally a third or fourth root. But while it's nice to document the exact algorithm somewhere, it's probably much more useful to explain the practical results of the algorithm - thus why there are the approximations used in the lede (and occasionally sprinkled elsewhere). You can be sure that when the game designers were playing with formulas, they were doing it in general terms, not caring about whether the RNG was 16-bit or whether a division rounded up or down. The algorithms in the code are crafted to follow their intent. (The difference is famously illustrated in that [https://www.google.com/search?q=pokemon+serious+business old "Pokémon: Serious Business" image] that had an old version of this article - indeed, it's what inspired me to craft the new lede in the first place.) Let's keep our audience in mind.

:::: Kaphotics (or, anyone), could you elaborate on "It does a*0x100 > rand(0,65535) for a pass shake calc."? I don't understand how multiplying by 256 is equivalent to 65536 / (255/''a'')(1/4) as listed in the article. —[[User:Naokohiro|Naokohiro]] 10:55, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
::::: When I wrote that I wasn't thinking clearly, it does keep the 4th root and such. For every check it does - rand(0xFFFF) and compares it to b.

== Generation V -- Interesting Probabilities ==

Since we are still getting the 4th root of the initial probability a and doing 3 shake checks, that makes the chance of capture when the critical capture chance is 0 equal to a3/4.

This takes what would normally be a linear probability always equal to a and puts it on an exponential curve.

If we have more than 30 in the dex, the probability now changes. There is a (a*m)*a1/4 chance of getting a critical capture and then succeeding in capture. Let m be the multiplier for critical capture which is based on the amount caught in the Pokédex. There's also a (1 - a*m)*a3/4 chance of getting a normal capture. So, the total chance of getting a capture is now (a*m)*a1/4 + (1 - a*m)*a3/4 (with m=0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, or 2.5 respectively).

What this does is make an increasingly steeper curve the higher the value of m, but the curve always starts at (0, 0) and ends at (1, 1).
Actually, in the higher values for m, the curve actually gets so steep that it begins to increase a by more than 100% for part of the curve, which suggests a higher chance of capture when the Pokémon isn't completely at its weakest.
I just thought this information was interesting. It's almost like catching Pokémon has its own level up system. [[User:Naokohiro|Naokohiro]] 00:55, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

'''N''' (Japanese: '''Ｎ（エヌ）''' ''N'') is a character in {{game|Black and White|s}}. He was the leader of [[Team Plasma]] in {{game|Black and White|s}} and aspired to create separate worlds for [[human]]s and {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. His full name is '''Natural Harmonia Gropius''' (Japanese: '''ナチュラル・ハルモニア・グロピウス''' ''Natural Harmonia Gropius'').<ref name="Masuda blog 539">http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir/?p=539</ref>

==In the games==
[[File:Young N.png|left|thumb|N as a child]]
[[File:NClose.png|200px|right|thumb|A close-up of N in [[N's Castle|his castle]] after the final battle]]
N was raised by [[Ghetsis]], the internal leader of the [[Seven Sages]]. As he grew up, he was appointed as the king and leader of [[Team Plasma]]. He is an anti-villain, being the primary antagonist, yet a good natured person who sees Pokémon as his friends and is generally rather amicable toward the {{player}} as well. According to [[Anthea and Concordia|Concordia]], "N's heart is pure and innocent." At several points during the game he appears before the player to battle.

As a child, he was raised together with {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and was isolated from [[human]]s. Ghetsis would only let N see Pokémon that had been hurt by humans. Based on the contents of his room in [[N's Castle]], as a child he appeared to be interested in skateboarding, transportation (such as planes and trains), basketball, and darts. He also had many brand new toys. Pokémon have played with his toys, as his skateboard is covered in claw marks and scratches. It is revealed by Anthea and Concordia in {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2|2}} that N was an orphan raised by Pokémon in a forest until he was taken in by Ghetsis.

In Black and White, N is first seen in the game's prologue movie, in which N, clothed in special garb, is crowned by Ghetsis in the throne room of a castle. During the ceremony, as the other Sages watch, N remembers his childhood spent with his Pokémon friends.

[[File:N B2W2 Trailer.png|250px|thumb|N at [[Dragonspiral Tower]] in a flashback during [[Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 Special Introduction Movie|Black 2 and White 2's trailer]]]]
The player first meets N in [[Accumula Town]] after Team Plasma's public rally and Ghetsis's speech, where he challenges the player to a [[Pokémon battle]]. He again appears outside of the [[Nacrene Gym]], for another battle, and later at [[Nimbasa City]], where he asks the player to talk to him while riding the city's Ferris Wheel. During this excursion, N reveals that he is the leader of Team Plasma; Ghetsis had asked him to assist him in Team Plasma's liberation of Pokémon. It is confirmed after the ride, when a group of Plasma Grunts address him as their leader, and he battles the player to allow them time to get away. He is again encountered at the [[Chargestone Cave]], where he battles the player, and lastly, in [[Dragonspiral Tower]], where he found {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}} for his plans.

When the player challenges the {{un|Pokémon League}}, after beating the [[Elite Four]], the player finds N with [[Alder]], the {{pkmn|Champion}}, arguing over the use of Pokémon as tools. When the player arrives, N summons [[N's Castle|his Castle]] from the earth, which attaches itself to the Pokémon League, and as he enters the Castle, he challenges the player to face him. [[Cheren]] arrives, and he and Alder ask the player to stop him.

Within the castle's throne room, N tells the player that his goal is to create separate worlds for both humans and Pokémon, saying that he is willing to battle even if his Pokémon are hurt. To combat the player, he summons {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}}. As N's dragon appears, the player's {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Light Stone|Light}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{DL|Legendary artifacts|Dark Stone|Dark}}{{sup|W}} Stone is revived into the opposing dragon, and N encourages the player to battle it.

Once the dragon is caught, N will challenge the player. After N is defeated, Ghetsis appears and reveals he revived {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}} for N to use, calling him a disappointment. Team Plasma's motive for stealing Pokémon—separate worlds—is shown to be a lie. Ghetsis manipulated N and Team Plasma to ensure that he was the only person in Unova with Pokémon so that he could dominate the region. Alder and Cheren both hear this. Ghetsis battles the player in a rage, despite N's protest. After the battle, Alder and Cheren arrest Ghetsis and take him away.

After the battle, N apologizes, walks to a hole to outside on edge of the throne room, releases his legendary Pokémon, and bids a final farewell to the player. Then, after the credit-roll, an epilogue movie plays in which {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}}, with N on top, hovers above the clouds and, activating its tail's engine, accelerates away.

After the player finds the other six Sages for [[Looker]], Looker says that he has heard that N was seen in a distant land with a {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon.

In {{game|Black and White|s|4=2}}, N returns to save {{p|Kyurem}} from [[Ghetsis]] riding {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|B2}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W2}}. When his legendary dragon is absorbed by Kyurem to transform to Black Kyurem{{sup|B2}}/White Kyurem{{sup|W2}}, he pleads the player to stop Ghetsis and get it back.

On {{rt|23|Unova}} on the way to [[Victory Road (Black and White)|Victory Road]], he will give the player {{HM|05|Waterfall}}.

After the player has entered the [[Hall of Fame]], N's Zoroark will appear on [[Victory Road (Black and White)|Victory Road]] and lead the player to [[N's Castle]], where N and the player walk around the ruins which used to be [[N's Castle]]. In the throne room, N will ask the player to battle him with {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|B2}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W2}}. When the player defeats him, N will revert his dragon to its dormant state—the [[Dragon Stone|Dark Stone]]{{sup|B2}}/[[Dragon Stone|Light Stone]]{{sup|W2}}—and gives it to the player to summon it at [[Dragonspiral Tower]] to catch.

After catching {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|B2}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W2}}, N appears in [[Nimbasa City]] near the Rondez-View Ferris Wheel. After catching all of his Pokemon, and subsequently talking to [[Zinzolin]] in [[Undella Town]], he will appear there again. After both rides with him, he will return to his castle for a rematch with different Pokemon depending on the [[Seasons|season]].

'''At [[Accumula Town]]'''
* Before battle
:''"Your Pokémon... Just now, it was saying..."''
:''"Yes, they're talking. Oh. Then, you two can't hear it, either... How sad. My name is N."''
:''"The [[Pokédex]], eh? So... You're going to confine many, many Pokémon in [[Poké Ball]]s for that, then. I'm a {{pkmn|Trainer}}, too, but I can't help wondering... Are Pokémon really happy that way?"''
:''"Well, <player>, is it? Let me hear your Pokémon's voice again!"''

* After taking a hit
:''"More! Let me hear the voice of your Pokémon!"''

* After being defeated
:''"I never expected to hear Pokémon say such things..."''

* After the battle
:''"As long as Pokémon are confined in Poké Balls... Pokémon will never become perfect beings. I have to change the world for Pokémon, because they're my friends."''

'''At [[Nacrene City]]'''
:''"I... want to see things no one can see. The truths of Pokémon inside Poké Balls. The ideals of how Trainers should be. And a future where Pokémon have become perfect... Do you feel the same?"''
::'''Yes''': ''"That so? I think my friends and I should test you to see if you can see this future, too."''
::'''No''': ''"Huh. I expected more from you. Now pay attention. My friends and I will test you to see if you can see this future, too."''

* After being defeated
:''"I cannot see the future yet... The {{pkmn|world}} is still to be determined..."''

* After battle
:''"Right now, my friends aren't strong enough to save all Pokémon. Maybe I can't solve the equation that will change the world. So, I need power... Power enough to make anyone agree with me."''
:''"Now I know what power I need. {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}}! The [[legendary Pokémon]] that, along with the hero, created the [[Unova]] region. It's my turn to become that hero--and you and I will be friends!"''

'''At [[Nimbasa City]]'''
:''"You're looking for Team Plasma, right? They ran into the amusement park. Come with me."''
:''"They're not here. Let's ride the Ferris wheel and see if we can spot them. I love Ferris wheels… The circular motion… The mechanics… They're like collections of elegant formulas."''
:''"First, I must tell you... I am the king of Team Plasma. Ghetsis asked me to work with him to save Pokémon. I wonder how many Pokémon exist in this world."''
:''"There's no problem. You're part of the people we brought in to help us save the Pokémon. So, you're under my protection, as well. Go, quickly, and let my battle cover your retreat. ...Now then, <player>, do you follow my logic?"''
::'''Yes''': ''"If true, your words please me."''
::'''No''': ''"So that's how it is... That's unfortunate."''
:''"Ah. Then... The future I envision... Perhaps I can't beat you here and now, but I'll battle you to buy time for these members of Team Plasma to get away!"''

* After the first move
:''"Your Pokémon look happy."''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"Even if I lose, is it different from the future I saw?"''

* Upon defeat
:''"The result was the same... But you... Who are you?"''

* After battle
:''"You're quite strong. But I have a future that I must change. And, for that future... I'll defeat the Champion and become unbeatable, unlike any other! I'll make all Trainers free their Pokémon! Just try and stop me! If you want to be together with Pokémon, your only hope is to collect the Badges from each area and head for the Pokémon League! Try and stop me there, if you dare! If your conviction is not strong enough, you will never be able to defeat me."''

'''At [[Chargestone Cave]]'''
:''"Ah, yes. That was the [[Shadow Triad]], just now. [[Ghetsis]] enlisted them in [[Team Plasma]]. Apparently, they were the ones who prepared the {{p|Galvantula}} nest at the cave entrance."''
:''"Chargestone Cave... I like this place. Formulas express {{t|electric}}ity and its connection to Pokémon... If people did not exist, this would be an ideal place. You have been chosen, you know. Does it surprise you I said that?"''
::'''Yes''': ''"Of course. Such news should be a surprise."''
::'''No''': ''"Hmph. If you don't understand what that means, it's not likely to surprise you."''
:''"I told Ghetsis about you and your friends. After I did, he apparently used the Shadow Triad to find out about you. [[Cheren]] is pursuing the ideal of strength. Poor [[Bianca]] has faced the sad truth that not everyone can become stronger. And you are not swayed either way--more of a neutral presence. Which is apparently a good thing. Team Plasma will be waiting for you ahead. Ghetsis wants to see what kind of Pokémon Trainer you really are."''

* Before battle
:''"Many different values mix together, and the world becomes gray... That is unforgivable! I will separate Pokémon and people, and [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|black and white]] will be clearly distinct! Only then will Pokémon become perfect beings! Yes, that is my dream! That is the dream I must fulfill! <player>, do you have a dream of your own?"''
::'''Yes''': ''"You have a dream... That's wonderful. I'll learn just what kind of dream you have--in battle!"''
::'''No''': ''"As if a person without a dream could ever understand me! Eh... I guess... I have to crush your will here!"''

*After takes a hit
:''"Do you believe that [[Pokémon battle]]s help us understand one another?"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"I will show you that my love for my friends permeates every cell of my body. Behold!"''

* Upon defeat
:''"My friends getting hurt... That's what a Pokémon battle is."''

* After battle
:''"Tsk! Why? Is it impossible for me to win while feeling bad about being a Trainer? As if I could pursue my ideals{{sup|Bl}}/the truth{{sup|W}} with something as meaningless as a battle! As if that could make me worthy to become friends with the [[legendary Pokémon]]!"''

:''"[[Professor Juniper]], what are you thinking? You appear to have no qualms about the relationship between Pokémon and people. You put Pokémon into categories using arbitrary rules and think you can understand them like that... The very idea of a Pokédex revolts me. What do you have to say for yourself?"''

:''"You're saying I should just allow people to think whatever they want and treat Pokémon however they want, no matter whether the Pokémon suffer? I refuse to tolerate the existence of a world like that!"''

'''At [[Mistralton City]]'''
:''"They may say it is for understanding one another better, but what Trainers really use battles for is to compete... And they hurt each others' Pokémon! Am I the only one who finds this terribly painful? Whatever... I'm going to talk to your Pokémon. I've been living with Pokémon since I was born, so it's easier for me to talk with them than with people. ...Because Pokémon never tell lies."''
:''"Hey, <lead Pokémon>. Would you tell me what kind of Trainer <player> is?"''
:''"OK, OK, got it. So <player> was born in [[Nuvema Town]], lives with [[Mom]], and was given the Pokédex to start off a journey to see the world. Still, this <lead Pokémon> trusts you for some reason. That's good! If every person and Pokémon cared about one another like you two do, I could watch over the future of people and Pokémon without having to liberate Pokémon from people who just use them."''
:''"Ghetsis is using Team Plasma to search for some special stones--the {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Light Stone}} and the {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Dark Stone}}... These stones hold the essence of two legendary Pokémon. It is said that when they lost their physical form, they fell into a slumber and were transformed. Now, they wait for the hero's arrival... I shall resurrect a legendary {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon from one of these stones, and become its friend. That will show the world that I am the new hero. Everyone will follow what I say!"''
:''"My vision is to change the world without using force. Trying to change the world by force will just make others resist. If people resist, the ones that will be hurt are the innocent Pokémon used by foolish Trainers. You understand. Pokémon are not just tools for people to use!"''
:''"As a result... Pokémon and Trainers who care about one another, like you and your Pokémon, will be separated. And that does break my heart a little."''

'''At [[Dragonspiral Tower]]'''
:''"What do you think, <player>? How do you like the powerful{{sup|Bl}}/beautiful{{sup|W}} form of the Pokémon who appears before and fights beside the hero that will lead the way to a new world?"''
:''"Now, {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}} and I will head to the Pokémon League and defeat the Champion! This will be the last of the Pokémon battles that hurt Pokémon so. A world for Pokémon alone... It's finally going to be a reality."''
:''"If you want to stop me, you must become a hero as well! That's right! When Zekrom{{sup|Bl}}/Reshiram{{sup|W}}'s counterpart, Reshiram{{sup|Bl}}/Zekrom{{sup|W}}, recognizes you, we will finally be even, and then you can try to stop us!"''
:''"Well, what will you do? My prediction... If the future that I see is true, you will meet Reshiram{{sup|Bl}}/Zekrom{{sup|W}}. The Pokémon with you believe in you so strongly... Will you be the one who interferes with my formula for changing the world? If you want to protect the bonds between Pokémon and people, you must search for Reshiram{{sup|Bl}}/Zekrom{{sup|W}}! I'm sure it is waiting for you in the form of the Light Stone{{sup|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup|W}}."''

'''At [[Pokémon League]]'''
:''"It's over! Never again will Pokémon be made to suffer or be held captive by humans. It's all thanks to my friend, {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}}! You may have the title of Champion… But you can't stop me with just a title. Your soft heart has left you weak. Years ago, you lost your Pokémon, your partner, to sickness. In order to forget the pain in your heart, you wandered Unova… Who knows how long it's been since you've had to fight with your full strength? I actually kind of like that about you, though. As a Trainer who far outmatches the Champion, I shall issue an order across Unova: Trainers of the world, free your Pokémon!"''
:''"You and I both put our beliefs on the line and fought with all our strength. And I won. Do not say another word."''
:''"...I've been waiting. In the future I envisioned, you obtained a stone. And, indeed, you have. That Light Stone{{sup|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup|W}}... {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}} is responding to it. Stop. This is not a suitable for the legendary dragons! From the ground, rise up! The castle of Team Plasma! Surround the Pokémon League!"''
:''"What has just appeared is Team Plasma's castle. The king's words will resound from the heights to all below. You must come to the castle, as well. Everything will be decided there. Whether Pokémon will be liberated from people, or whether Pokémon and people will live together… We will see whose belief is stronger... And our result will change the world."''

'''At [[N's Castle]]'''
:''"What I desire is a world for Pokémon, and Pokémon alone. I will separate Pokémon from people, so Pokémon can regain their original power."
:''"It's time to settle this once and for all! My determination is absolute! I will prove the value of my beliefs even if it means my Pokémon friends get hurt! Since you've come this far, I believe you are equally determined. If that's so, prove it to me! Show me the depth of your determination!"''
:''"You came all this way to battle me… But {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|W}} is not responding. You haven't yet been recognized as the hero, have you? How disappointing. I actually kind of liked you a little. Through our many battles, I got the feeling that you might be a Trainer who truly cares for Pokémon!"''
:''"But I was kidding myself. The idea of Trainers getting to know each other through battles is ridculous! You have two options. Challenge me to a fight you can't win, or leave this place and watch the birth of a new world where Pokémon are free of people! {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}}! Come to me!"''
:''"Your Light Stone{{sup|Bl}}/Dark Stone{{sup|W}} is… I mean, {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|W}} is…"''
:''"Zekrom and Reshiram… They were once one life. One Pokémon. Complete opposites, yet the same. Zekrom and Reshiram are Pokémon that appear before the hero they recognize. Ah… I see. You really are a hero, too. I'll tell you what that Pokémon is saying to you. "I want to battle with you. Try to make me your friend and ally." It plans to test you to see if you are really pursuing truth{{sup|Bl}}/ideals{{sup|W}}. I, also, am curious to see how powerful you are. Now, catch {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|W}} and make it your ally!"''
:''"Ah… I see. {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|W}}, who is said to lend its power to the hero who searches for truth{{sup|Bl}}/ideals{{sup|W}}, has recognized your power and now agrees to stand by your side…"''
:''"Hold on. Your Pokémon are hurt. There is no triumph to be gained in battling a weakened opponent."''
:''"Now, I will create the future I desire! I shall sweep you before me!"''

* First hit
:''"Do you really think you can stop us with that?"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"My last friend... Please share your courage with me!"''

* Last Pokémon at low health
:''"Is the world going to choose you, and not me?!"{{sup|Bl}}''
:''"Is the world going to choose you-- and not me?!"{{sup|W}}''

* Upon defeat
:''"Everything's ruined. The ideals{{sup|Bl}}/truth{{sup|W}} I held… The dreams Pokémon shared…"''

* After battle
:''"… … {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup|Bl}}/{{p|Reshiram}}{{sup|W}} and I were beaten. Your truth{{sup|Bl}}/ideals{{sup|W}}… Your feelings… They were stronger than mine, it seems… Reshiram and Zekrom… Each of them choosing a different hero… Is that even possible? Two heroes living at the same time— one that pursues truth and one that pursues ideals. Could… Could they both be right? I don't know. It's not by rejecting different ideas, but by accepting different ideas that the world creates a chemical reaction. This is truly the formula for changing the world."''
:''"But…I have no right to be the hero!"''
:''"Acting like you understand… Up till now, we've been fighting each other over our beliefs! Yet, despite that… Why?!"''
:''"I want to talk to you about something."''
:''"It's about when I first met you in Accumula Town. I was shocked when I heard what your Pokémon was saying. I was shocked because that Pokémon said it liked you. It said it wanted to be with you."''
:''"I couldn't understand it. I couldn't believe there were Pokémon that liked people. Because, up until that moment, I'd never known a Pokémon like that. The longer my journey continued, the more unsure I became. All I kept meeting were Pokémon and people who communicated with one another and helped one another. That was why I needed to confirm my beliefs by battling with you. I wanted to confront you hero-to-hero. I needed that more than anything."''
:''"There's no way a person like me, someone who understands only Pokémon— No, actually… I didn't understand them, either. No way could I measure up to you, when you had met so many Pokémon and were surrounded by friends…"''
:''"The Champion has forgiven me, and… What I should do now is something I'll have to decide for myself."''

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:N Adventures.png|thumb|right|150px|N as he appears in Pokémon Adventures]]
N makes his first appearance standing near an [[Xtransceiver]] commercial shooting after {{adv|Black}} manages to save it from being attacked by a wild {{p|Galvantula}}. He sheds tears over the fact that Pokémon are being used for purposes such as acting.

He later appears in [[Accumula Town]] where he confronts and battles Black. He expresses his disgust with the Pokédex to Black and claims that Trainers lock up his "friends" in Poké Balls just so that it can fill the Pokédex, making them nothing more than a source of information to fill the Pokédex with information. Eventually, Black's [[Tep]] manages to defeat his Tympole, and N decides to take his leave after learning that there are Pokémon that enjoy the company of Trainers. After leaving, Black reveals that N isn't really a bad person after his [[Musha]] ate his dream and revealed it to him.

Later, at [[Nimbasa City]], N knocks {{adv|White}} into one of the Ferris wheel cars and climbs into it. After a brief talk, N forces White's [[Gigi]] to fight his Servine. After Gigi wins, N concludes that White had been neglecting Gigi's battle skills. When White tries to escape, she is shocked to see Gigi side with N instead of her and falls hard to ground below. As the two watch from the Rondez-View Ferris wheel, N sends his Servine to White's aid.

Later, N and Gigi arrive at the [[Dragonspiral Tower]]. As he stares at the building, N muses over the location where Truth and Ideals meet while Gigi watches him.

===In the Pokémon BW: The Heroes of Fire and Thunder manga===
N appears in every chapter of [[Pokémon BW: The Heroes of Fire and Thunder]] as the king of [[Team Plasma]], known for harshly punishing any failure by grunts and wishing to turn [[Unova]] into a country inhabited only by Pokémon. He is first seen wearing a cape in atown in Unova, where he is approached by Shin who asks him for a battle, impressed by his {{p|Purrloin}}. He responds that he is not a Pokémon Trainer, but merely a Traveler. Several Team Plasma grunts then appear and snatch up his Purrloin, not realising that he is their boss. Shin is angry about them stealing Pokémon, but N states that he should not get involved because it'd be dangerous for him, but Shin replies that he doesn't mind.

As they follow the grunts, N questions Shin's reasons for desperately trying to rescue his Purrloin if he is just a Pokémon Trainer who uses Pokémon as tools, to which he replies that traveling together with a Pokémon is just more fun. N overhears a pair of {{p|Pidove}}s talking, to which Shin begs N to teach him how to understand Pokémon language, leading N to call him an odd Pokémon Trainer.

Catching up with Togari in a rocky plateau, he wonders why humans give orders to Pokémon to make them hurt each other, and tells Shin he is just saving Pokémon to make himself feel good, which he rejects, stating that being with a Pokémon is more fun for both the Trainer and the Pokémon as N hears Shin and his {{p|Tepig}}'s voices in unison.
N feels that Shin is stirring some emotion within him, saying that Shin really is an odd Pokémon Trainer for getting Purrloin back for him, and Shin decides to travel together with N as his journey will be more fun if they're together.

The second chapter starts as Shin and N are trying to return a {{p|Blitzle}} to its {{p|Zebstrika}} herd, but though having being asked to by the Blitzle, the Zebstrika are too scared to think because they are humans. N, realising this when Shin attacks with his {{p|Pignite}}, jumps in the way and takes the attack instad, getting severely burned upon his arms. He says that despite being in pain, it's fine if to stop a Pokémon from being hurt, explaining his dream to create a world where Pokémon can live happily by using the power of legendary Pokémon.

Shin replies that it's a dream he'll support too, but N advises him to find his own dream. As they arrive at [[Dragonspiral Tower]], N and Shin are separated by a falling pillar. N suggests that they should each make their separate way to the top floor where the legendary Pokémon resides, but as Shin tries to ascend the tower, he is met by Togari who blocks him upon the orders of his "King"—to give him time to befriend Zekrom.

Finally, Shin arrives, and is surprised that no-one is there but N. N introduces Shin to his new friend who will fulfill his dream, {{p|Zekrom}}, this time stating in full that his dream is to free Pokémon from foolish humans and create a place they can live happily by making a country just for Pokémon. Shin realises his dream is the same as the dream of the "King" of [[Team Plasma]], to which N replies is him himself, and argues that there is no other choice as the world as it exists just gets Pokémon hurt. As he flies off upon Zekrom's back, he tells Shin that though he despises humans, Shin alone he'll allow to live in the world he creates.

In chapters three and four N is shown standing on the rubble of the Pokémon League having defeated the Elite Four and states [[Alder]] is next; and is explained by Alder that N told him that nobody but a Pokémon Trainer by the name of Shin could stand up to him, and sent Alder to help him become the Hero of Fire by controlling Reshiram.

In the final chapter Shin arrives at the secret headquarters of [[Team Plasma]], [[N's Castle]] to fight N. N decides that Shin is after all just another human who cannot hear the weeping voices of Pokémon, summoning Zekrom to do battle and easily defeating Shin, saying that the strength of the legendary Pokémon depend on how strong their hero's ideal or truth is, with his being the strongest having heard the weeping voices of Pokémon for so long, and the pain of separation will be only an instant of pain among a future free of it, as while humans live together with Pokémon, there will always be Pokémon hurt and crying somewhere.

Shin replies that if he was a real hero he'd save everyone, not just Pokémon, to which N replies that if that is true, show him his resolution through Reshiram. However, Shin gets defeated again, with him and Reshiram getting trapped under rubble, and {{p|Emboar}} unable to produce a flame. Yet he proclaims that he'll never give in until the very end, and Reshiram sets Emboar's fist on fire with its flame, to give it the power to attack through Zekrom's shield of thunder. However, as Emboar attempts to punch through it, instead it combines with the flame on his fist to become a piece of the Original Pokémon's power, a ball of flaming thunder, and Shin states that while N may be strong alone, Emboar's power now is a power they have only created by everyone working together, and Emboar punches out Zekrom.

Some time later, N lies together with Shin on the roof of his castle, realising that perhaps the world is not as black and white as he calculated, and that he will disband Team Plasma and rework his ideals over again from the start. Admitting that he too enjoyed their battle, he bids farewell to Shin as he flies off on Zekrom, wishing that perhaps one day they may meet and battle again.

====Pokémon====
N refuses to call the Pokémon he befriends "his Pokémon," instead naming them "his friends."

==Trivia==
{{bulbanews|Junichi Masuda reveals information on N}}
* The cube hanging from N's belt is a sliding puzzle similar to a {{wp|Void Cube}}, and has been in his possession since childhood. It's one of many design elements reflecting the character's mathematical motif, and also resembles the first iteration of a {{wp|Menger sponge}}, a geometric figure that simultaneously has infinite surface area and zero volume.
** N's concept artwork and the accompanying notes indicate that the puzzle cube might eventually become relevant to the game's plot and show that a central cube with a keyhole will appear when the puzzle is solved, locking away something mysterious in its core, which is implied to be a Pokémon.
* N, [[Bianca]], and [[Cheren]] are the only Trainers in {{v2|Black and White|s}} with animated battle sprites.
* Unlike most recurring characters, N battles with a completely different team in every appearance. This may stem from his belief that Pokémon should not be used as tools, as every Pokémon he uses (except for the last battle against him) can be found in the surrounding area.
* N is the only Trainer to use an [[event Pokémon]].
* N uses 16 of the 17 types of Pokémon, only not using Pokémon of the {{t|Ghost}} type.
* N is fought more times than any other villainous team leader. However, he uses the [[Pokémon Trainer#As a Trainer class|Pokémon Trainer]] class during his first two battles.
* N is the only villainous team leader who keeps his Japanese name.
* N speaks very quickly, as indicated by the fact that his dialogue is printed faster than that of other characters and by Cheren's comment upon first meeting him: "Slow down. You talk too fast." Regardless of what speed the player has the dialogue set at, N's dialogue prints at the fastest speed, except when the player already has the dialogue set at the fastest speed; in that case, N's prints even faster.
* N is 1.80 m tall (5'11").
* N is the only Trainer in the series to use a [[legendary Pokémon]] during the main story (excluding side series games).
* N's [[Trainer ID number]] is 00002.

Bug-Catching Contest

2011-01-07T14:42:48Z

Unknowen900: This page needs a formula for the scoring section. Until there is one, the scoring section could be considered a stub.

[[File:Bug Catching Contest HGSS.png|frame|Bug-Catching Contest judging in Generation IV]]
The '''Bug-Catching Contest''' is a competition held every [[Days of the week|Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday]] in [[Johto]]'s [[National Park]]. The Bug-Catching Contest is introduced in {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, and makes a return in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.

==In the games==
===Rules===
There is no entry fee for the Bug-Catching Contest. Anyone may enter once per day, every [[Days of the week|Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday]].

To compete, Trainers must {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} the single best {{type2|Bug}} [[Pokémon]] they can find. To do this, Trainers are given twenty {{DL|Poké Ball|Sport Ball|Sport Ball}}s (similar to Safari Balls; called "Park Balls" in Generation II), and they are only allowed to use a single Pokémon from their party. The rest of a Trainer's Pokémon and all of their items remain with the contest officials until the competition is over.

Any Pokémon caught will be recorded in the [[Pokédex]], but only one Pokémon can be kept to be judged. The Pokémon that is judged may be kept after the competition.

The competition ends when all the Sport Balls are used, the trainer [[black out|whites out]], the trainer leaves the park, or 20 minutes have passed. After that, the judging will occur, in which Trainers are scored on their skills of capturing rare and powerful Pokémon.

===Scoring===
{{sectionstub}}
The two primary factors that determine the score in the contest are the sum of the Pokémon's [[stats]], which can be estimated by its [[rarity]] and its [[level]], and the amount of damage it sustained in the capture attempt. The higher the Pokémon's remaining hit points at time of capture, the higher the score. Other factors, even {{shiny|shininess}}, do not significantly affect the outcome.

===Competitors===
These are the competitors found in every contest:
*{{tc|Ace Trainer|CoolTrainer}} Nick
*{{tc|PokéFan}} William
*{{tc|Youngster}} Samuel
*{{tc|Camper}} Barry
*{{tc|Bug Catcher}} Ed
*{{tc|Bug Catcher}} Benny

==In the anime==
In ''[[EP161|The Bug Stops Here]]'', {{Ash}} and {{an|Casey}} competed in the Bug-Catching Contest. During the competition, Casey caught a {{p|Weedle}}, and her {{TP|Casey|Chikorita|Meganium}} evolved into a {{p|Bayleef}}. Ash won the competition with a {{TP|Casey|Beedrill}}, earning himself a {{evostone|Sun Stone}}. After the competition, he gave the Beedrill to Casey since she loves Pokémon with yellow and black stripes.

==Trivia==
*The music used during the contest is a remix of the [[Kanto]]-based games' [[Bicycle]] music.
*It is possible to catch the version-exclusive Pokémon {{p|Caterpie}}, {{p|Metapod}}, {{p|Butterfree}}, {{p|Weedle}}, {{p|Kakuna}} and {{p|Beedrill}} through the Bug-Catching Contest.
*After the player obtains the [[National Pokédex]] and enters the contest on Thursdays and Saturdays, some of the other competitors may be announced as having caught a Pokémon in the Caterpie or Weedle lines, despite those Pokémon not being available on those days.

'''Nosepass''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ノズパス''' ''Nosepass'') is a {{type2|Rock}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Probopass}} when [[level]]ed up in either [[Mt. Coronet]] or [[Electric Rock Cave]].

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Nosepass are Pokémon composed of hard, angular, bluish-colored rock. They closely resemble {{wp|Easter Island Heads}}, as their main body is in the shape of one. Their most prominent feature are their bright red, triangular noses, which are highly magnetic. They also have arms and legs, but don't appear to have any joints and have small, circular holes on the undersides. Nosepass has similar circular holes on where one might expect its ears to be, and its eyes, covered by dark, somewhat mask-like markings, seem perpetually closed in appearance.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Their noses can function as {{wp|electromagnet}}s that point north. They cannot face each other since they all have the same polarity. Nosepass’s magnetism is stronger in cold seasons.

===Behavior===
It usually stands in one spot with its nose pointing north. It's said to be unmoving, but it actually can shift slightly. When endangered, Nosepass may protect itself by raising its magnetism and drawing iron objects to its body.

===Habitat===
[[File:Cave.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon}}]]
Nosepass can be found in caves.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
This Pokémon apparently feeds on prey that are attracted by its magnetism. This may attract {{p|Magnemite}} (due to their documented liking for electronics and magnetic sources) that may not be edible.

==In the anime==
[[File:Roxanne Nosepass.png|200px|right|thumb|Nosepass in the anime]]
[[Roxanne]], the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Rustboro City]], has a Nosepass which appeared in ''[[AG016|A Winner By a Nosepass]]''. It was used in a gym battle against [[Ash Ketchum]].

In ''[[AG183|Aipom and Circumstance]]'', a young man named [[Hank]] used his Nosepass to track down {{Ash}}'s missing [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]].

In ''[[DP058|Nosing 'Round the Mountain!]]'', Ash battled a boy named [[Alan]] and his Nosepass at [[Mt. Coronet]]. The Nosepass then evolved into {{p|Probopass}}.

A Nosepass also appeared in ''[[DP095|Battling the Generation Gap!]]''.

A group of Nosepass appeared in ''[[DP112|Cheers on Castaways Isle!]]'' together with its evolution, {{p|Probopass}}.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], [[Roxanne]]'s main Pokémon is a Nosepass. During her battle against {{Adventures|Sapphire}} she used Nosepass's {{A|Magnet Pull}} so that her {{p|Aron}} cannot be switched. She saves its Poké Ball inside a hollowed-out book. Later when fighting against [[Team Magma]] in [[Lilycove City]], Nosepass uses it's {{m|Block}} attack to stop {{p|Groudon}} from moving. Unfortunately, Roxanne allows Team Magma knock Nosepass out to protect some civilians.

===In the Pokémon Ruby-Sapphire manga===
[[Roxanne]]'s main Pokémon in the [[Pokémon Ruby-Sapphire]] manga is Nosepass. Roxanne's Nosepass first appears in ''[[PMRS09|Clefairy's Training Camp!!]]''.

==Game data==
===Pokédex entries===
{{Dex
|type=rock
|gen=3
|rubydex=Nosepass's magnetic nose is always pointed to the north. If two of these Pokémon meet, they cannot turn their faces to each other when they are close because their magnetic noses repel one another.
|sapphiredex=Nosepass had been said to be completely unmoving, with its magnetic nose pointed due north. However, close observation has revealed that the Pokémon actually moves by a little over 3/8 of an inch every year.
|emeralddex=Its body emits a powerful magnetism. It feeds on prey that is pulled in by the force. Its magnetism is stronger in cold seasons.
|frlgdex=Its magnetic nose consistently faces north. Travelers check Nosepass to get their bearings.
|dpdex=Its nose is a magnet. As a result, this Pokémon always keeps its face pointing north.
|platinumdex=When endangered, it may protect itself by raising its magnetism and drawing iron objects to its body.
|hgssdex=If two of these meet, they cannot get too close because their noses repel each other.

==Trivia==
* Nosepass is the only pure {{type2|Rock}} whose evolution is dual-type, as {{p|Probopass}} is {{2t|Rock|Steel}}.
* Nosepass is one of the three Pokémon to evolve at a certain area; the other two are {{p|Eevee}} and {{p|Magneton}}.
** Out of the three, Magneton and Nosepass evolve at [[Mt. Coronet]] or [[Electric Rock Cave]].
* Nosepass is the only Pokémon which undergoes evolution in a specific area that is catchable in that same area.
* Nosepass is the only Pokémon with {{a|Magnet Pull}} that is not itself a Steel-type, thus not affected by it.
** Its evolution Probopass is, however.
* Nosepass is the only non-[[Generation I]] Pokémon with a total [[EV yield]] of 1 to evolve into a Pokémon with a total EV yield of 3. The only other Pokémon to do so are {{p|Paras}} (into {{p|Parasect}}) and {{p|Slowpoke}} (who can evolve into {{p|Slowking}}, as well as {{p|Slowbro}} (who has an EV yield of 2)).
* Nosepass and its evolution {{p|Probopass}} are the only {{type2|Rock}} Pokémon that learn {{m|Discharge}} by level up.
* Nosepass is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 375.

===Origin===
{{bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Nosepass and Probopass}}
It is based on the {{wp|Moai}} statues of {{wp|Easter Island}}, as well as a {{wp|compass}}.

Its nasal compass may be based on the magnetic {{wp|ethmoid bone}} that is located between the {{wp|nasal cavity}} and the brain, and is known to give some species of birds their sense of direction.

====Name origin====
Nosepass's name may be a combination of ''nose'' and ''compass''.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Nasgnet - Derived from ''nase'' (nose) and ''magnet.''
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Tarinor - From ''narine'' (nostril), and ''nord'' (north).
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 코코파스 ''Cocopass''
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Taiwan)]]: 朝北鼻 ''Cháo Běi Bí'' - Literally "North-facing nose".

In-game trade

Unknowen900: /* Trivia */

{{incomplete|needs=JpBlue nicknames, IVs in post-Gen I games, and enhanced contest stats}}
An '''in-game trade''' is a [[trade]] made with a [[non-player character]] within the course of a [[main series]] Pokémon game. They are usually for Pokémon that are difficult or impossible to obtain through other means, or for Pokémon unavailable at that point of the game. In later games, the traded Pokémon often has special moves, like [[egg move]]s.

The Trainer conducting the in-game trade will—in every case but one—specify a Pokémon they want to trade for. The Pokémon the player receives in the trade will have fixed [[Original Trainer|OT]] and [[Trainer ID|ID]] numbers; in later games the [[held item]]s, [[natures]], and [[IVs]] are fixed as well. Each Pokémon, likewise, has a [[nickname]], and will be at the same level as the Pokémon given by the player (except in {{Pokémon XD}}).

Like Pokémon traded externally, the traded Pokémon will be treated as an "{{pkmn2|outsider}}", and gain a boosted amount of [[experience|experience points]] in battle.

The following is a list of all in-game trades in all generations.

==Trivia==
* Since the Pokémon received in an in-game trade is the same level as the one traded, it's sometimes possible to receive a Pokémon at a lower level than normally possible.
** {{p|Electrode}} does not evolve from {{p|Voltorb}} until level 30, but can be obtained by trading a level 3 {{p|Raichu}} which has been caught in [[Viridian Forest]] and evolved by {{evostone|Thunderstone}}. This trade can be made in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} and Red and Blue (Red and Green in Japan).
** {{p|Machop}} evolves into {{p|Machoke}} at level 28 (though can be found as low as level 15 in [[Generation II]]'s [[Rock Tunnel]]) and then {{p|Machamp}} by trading. By breeding a Cubone in Generation II and trading it to Yellow, Machamp can be obtained at level 5.
** {{p|Dragonair}} evolves from {{p|Dratini}} at level 30, and in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}} can be traded for a {{p|Rhydon}} which does not normally evolve from {{p|Rhyhorn}} until level 42. In {{game|Crystal}} and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the same trade is for a {{p|Dodrio}}, which does not normally evolve until level 31. Dragonair can also be fished at a level as low as 10 on {{rt|45|Johto}}, but only in [[Generation II]].
*** A Level 15 {{p|Rhydon}} can be found on [[Pokemon Yellow]] by [[Surf]]ing on [[Kanto Route 6|Route 6]] for a Level 15 {{p|Golduck}} and trade with a Trainer on [[Cinnabar Island]].
** {{p|Gloom}} evolves at level 21, but can be traded for a {{p|Rapidash}} which does not normally evolve until level 40. This occurs only in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}. In {{game|Crystal}} and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} the trade is replaced by a {{p|Haunter}} for a {{p|Xatu}} (which in turn can be traded for a level 19 Haunter found on {{rt|8}}, given that neither evolve until level 25).
** {{p|Dugtrio}} evolves at level 26, but can be traded for a {{p|Magneton}} (which does not normally evolve until level 30) in {{game|Crystal}} and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
* Before [[Generation IV]], Pokémon eggs hatched at level 5, but some could be caught in the wild as low as level 2. In-game trades allow these to be traded for Pokémon which normally cannot be found below level 5. In Pokémon Blue (Japan), a level 2 {{p|Pidgey}} and {{p|Rattata}} and level 3 {{p|Jigglypuff}} can be traded for {{p|Farfetch'd}}, {{p|Poliwag}} and {{p|Mr.Mime}}, respectively. In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire}}, a level 3 {{p|Pikachu}} obtained from {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} can be traded for a level 3 {{p|Skitty}}, which in turn can be traded in {{game|Emerald}} for a level 3 {{p|Meowth}}.
* HeartGold and SoulSilver were the first games to feature in-game trades with [[Gym Leader]]s; [[Lt. Surge]], [[Brock]], and [[Jasmine]] each offer an in-game trade with the player.
* In all Pokémon games starting from [[Generation II]], there has been an in-game lottery-style event based on the [[Trainer ID]] of the Pokémon you own, which has a chance of giving you, among other things, a [[Master Ball]]. Prior to the introduction of the [[GTS]] in [[Generation IV]], the best way of raising the amount of different [[Trainer ID|Trainer IDs]] you have is to utilize in-game trades.

You may be wondering why my user page redirected you to my talk page. Simply put, I don't have a user page as yet, so this will have to suffice. — [[User:Unknowen900|Unknowen900]] 14:35, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

==Welcome==

Please don't edit other peoples messages. Hasn't been a problem, but just don't.

== Haha, woooow ==

Way to flip out for no reason. [[Version Exclusive Pokémon]] are certain Pokémon that are AVAILIBLE IN THE WILD depending on which [[version]]. This is why {{p|Weedle}} and {{p|Caterpie}} were not included in the [[Black and White]] list,<ref>Added and decided on by him and him only.</ref> as they can only be obtained in the game either by [[breeding]] or [[PokéShifter|transferring]] from [[Generation IV]] games or from the [[Dream World]].<ref>But in order to get it in the other version, you need to trade with the one it is a [[Version Exclusive Pokémon|Version Exclusive]] of. So, entire point is ridiculous and invalid.</ref> - [[User:050294|050294]] 05:01, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
*He lost in the end, and his logic was invalid. We both got suspended, me shorter than him, and while we were gone, a fourth party (a third party had already changed it in disagreement with him) changed it back to the original form of the page. [[User:050294|050294]] seriously thought that [[Version Exclusive Pokémon|earlier stages of Pokémon that can only be found in one version but themselves cannot be found in either version]] do not count as such, and that [[Evolution|later stages of Pokémon which can be found in either version but they themselves can only be found in one]] do count. I do not understand or care for this logic, and the community has been seen to disagree with it. I may not be clear with what I mean by this, but I hope you understand what I mean by his opinion being [[Dunsparce|completely illogical.]] — [[User:Unknowen900|Unknowen900]] 14:19, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

== Edit Warring ==

It is very against the rules. There is no reason to edit war when there's a talk page begging to be used for discussion. As per the rules you are blocked one day per revert, minus the initial edit. You reverted 2 times, so you are being blocked for 2 days. Heed this warning, and you will return a better user. -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|MAG]][[Special:Contributions/MAGNEDETH|NE]][[User talk:MAGNEDETH|DETH]]''' 05:26, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

You may be wondering why my user page redirected you to my talk page. Simply put, I don't have a user page as yet, so this will have to suffice. — [[User:Unknowen900|Unknowen900]] 14:35, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

Way to flip out for no reason. [[Version Exclusive Pokémon]] are certain Pokémon that are AVAILIBLE IN THE WILD depending on which [[version]]. This is why {{p|Weedle}} and {{p|Caterpie}} were not included in the [[Black and White]] list,<ref>Added and decided on by him and him only.</ref> as they can only be obtained in the game either by [[breeding]] or [[PokéShifter|transferring]] from [[Generation IV]] games or from the [[Dream World]].<ref>But in order to get it in the other version, you need to trade with the one it is a [[Version Exclusive Pokémon|Version Exclusive]] of. So, entire point is ridiculous and invalid.</ref> - [[User:050294|050294]] 05:01, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
*He lost in the end, and his logic was invalid. We both got suspended, me shorter than him, and while we were gone, a fourth party (a third party had already changed it in disagreement with him) changed it back to the original form of the page. [[User:050294|050294]] seriously thought that [[Version Exclusive Pokémon|earlier stages of Pokémon that can only be found in one version but themselves cannot be found in either version]] do not count as such, and that [[Evolution|later stages of Pokémon which can be found in either version but they themselves can only be found in one]] do count. I do not understand or care for this logic, and the community has been seen to disagree with it. I may not be clear with what I mean by this, but I hope you understand what I mean by his opinion being [[Dunsparce|completely illogical.]] — [[User:Unknowen900|Unknowen900]] 14:19, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

== Edit Warring ==

It is very against the rules. There is no reason to edit war when there's a talk page begging to be used for discussion. As per the rules you are blocked one day per revert, minus the initial edit. You reverted 2 times, so you are being blocked for 2 days. Heed this warning, and you will return a better user. -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|MAG]][[Special:Contributions/MAGNEDETH|NE]][[User talk:MAGNEDETH|DETH]]''' 05:26, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

It is very against the rules. There is no reason to edit war when there's a talk page begging to be used for discussion. As per the rules you are blocked one day per revert, minus the initial edit. You reverted 2 times, so you are being blocked for 2 days. Heed this warning, and you will return a better user. -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|MAG]][[Special:Contributions/MAGNEDETH|NE]][[User talk:MAGNEDETH|DETH]]''' 05:26, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Way to flip out for no reason. [[Version Exclusive Pokémon]] are certain Pokémon that are AVAILIBLE IN THE WILD depending on which [[version]]. This is why {{p|Weedle}} and {{p|Caterpie}} were not included in the [[Black and White]] list,<ref>Added and decided on by him and him only.</ref> as they can only be obtained in the game either by [[breeding]] or [[PokéShifter|transferring]] from [[Generation IV]] games or from the [[Dream World]].<ref>But in order to get it in the other version, you need to trade with the one it is a [[Version Exclusive|Version Exclusive Pokémon]] of. So, entire point is ridiculous and invalid.</ref> - [[User:050294|050294]] 05:01, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
*He lost in the end, and his logic was invalid. We both got suspended, me shorter than him, and while we were gone, a fourth party (a third party had already changed it in disagreement with him) changed it back to the original form of the page. [[User:050294|050294]] seriously thought that [[Version Exclusive Pokémon|earlier stages of Pokémon that can only be found in one version but themselves cannot be found in either version]] do not count as such, and that [[Evolution|later stages of Pokémon which can be found in either version but they themselves can only be found in one]] do count. I do not understand or care for this logic, and the community has been seen to disagree with it. I may not be clear with what I mean by this, but I hope you understand what I mean by his opinion being [[Dunsparce|completely illogical.]] — [[User:Unknowen900|Unknowen900]] 14:19, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

Mass outbreak

2010-12-02T13:42:08Z

Unknowen900: /* {{2v2|Black|White}} */ A big gift for the page! The table of swarming Pokémon in Black/White has been added. Still needs levels, though.

[[Image:RanchSkittyOutbreak.jpg|250px|thumb|right|[[My Pokémon Ranch]] explains the general mechanics of a Mass Outbreak.]]
'''Mass Outbreaks''' (Japanese: '''大量発生''' ''mass outbreak''), also known as '''swarms''', are a feature introduced in Generation II that allows the {{player}} to catch Pokémon that are usually rare or otherwise unobtainable.

==[[Generation II]]==
Mass Outbreaks originated in Generation II. Several Trainers whose phone numbers can be registered occasionally call to give advice of a Pokémon outbreak and its location.

==[[Generation III]]==
{{sectionstub}}
In Generation III this method allows the player to catch Pokémon that cannot be caught normally and make rare Pokémon temporarily more common. This was possible due to the [[Mixing records|record mixing]] feature of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. The outbreaks are advised by [[television]]s in houses, where the Pokémon and its location is told.

==[[Generation IV]]==
Mass Outbreaks were largely expanded in Generation IV. Once the player attains the [[National Pokédex]], every day in a particular location, a "swarm of Pokémon" appears, which changes the probability of finding the given Pokémon from 0% to 40%. Outbreaks last only one day and are random events. Information about Mass Outbreaks can be found in [[Sandgem Town]], by watching Sinnoh [[television]], or by listening to [[Professor Oak's Pokémon Talk]].

When players all join the same [[group]], they will all experience the same outbreak on any given day.

The species of an outbreaks seems to be determined using a formula, because it is not chosen randomly when the player starts the game that day. It is also possible that the species is determined the day before, though there is no additional evidence to support this. If the DS clock is changed or a different DS is used, then the game will detect this and will not change the species swarming until 12:00 AM.

===={{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}====
By also using the [[Poké Radar]] and [[Dual-slot mode]] in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, players can get all Pokémon excluding {{p|Tangela}}, {{p|Tropius}}, the [[starter Pokémon]], and [[legendary Pokémon]] of previous generations, while Tangela, Tropius and two Legendary Trios can be regularly acquired in {{game|Platinum}}.

Many of the Pokémon obtained through Mass Outbreaks are outside of the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]], and are usually exclusive to other [[region]]s. However, the player can obtain information about the current outbreak by talking to, depending on their own [[gender]], {{ga|Dawn}}'s or {{ga|Lucas}}'s sister in [[Sandgem Town]], or seeing the news report on a [[television|TV]] in {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}.

Due to higher catching rates for Pokémon that appear during outbreaks, they make longer and better chains when using [[Poké Radar]].

== Template:'''Amity test'''==
A template for multiple use on the [[Amity Square]] page. Its purpose is to make editing the lists on the page easier. It also means that the template itself can be changed (i.e. without the hassle of wading through 500 lines of content.

Usage:

<code><nowiki>
{{Amity
|p=
|header=
|item1=
|item1i=
|item2=
|item2i=
...
}}</nowiki></code>

Where <code>p</code> is the Pokemon of the list, header is the content of the <code>th</code> (common, rare, very rare). The others, item1, item2, item3, all the way until item20, are the names of the items. Since the image names aren't in a standardized manner, without a heavy switch function it is impossible to add images. For this reason, item1i, item2i, item3i, represent image names.

If this template is causing problems with server load (although it shouldn't!), there's the option to substitute it. Just use <code>|subst=subst:</code> and the parser functions will be substituted, provided also that the template itself is. After this, the template can be deleted (just ensure there are no [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Amity|transclusion links to this page]]).

== Template:'''Amity test'''==
A template for multiple use on the [[Amity Square]] page. Its purpose is to make editing the lists on the page easier. It also means that the template itself can be changed (i.e. without the hassle of wading through 500 lines of content.

Usage:

<code><nowiki>
{{Amity
|p=
|header=
|item1=
|item1i=
|item2=
|item2i=
...
}}</nowiki></code>

Where <code>p</code> is the Pokemon of the list, header is the content of the <code>th</code> (common, rare, very rare). The others, item1, item2, item3, all the way until item20, are the names of the items. Since the image names aren't in a standardized manner, without a heavy switch function it is impossible to add images. For this reason, item1i, item2i, item3i, represent image names.

If this template is causing problems with server load (although it shouldn't!), there's the option to substitute it. Just use <code>|subst=subst:</code> and the parser functions will be substituted, provided also that the template itself is. After this, the template can be deleted (just ensure there are no [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Amity|transclusion links to this page]]).

Mass outbreak

2010-12-02T12:32:13Z

Unknowen900: /* Generation V */

[[Image:RanchSkittyOutbreak.jpg|250px|thumb|right|[[My Pokémon Ranch]] explains the general mechanics of a Mass Outbreak.]]
'''Mass Outbreaks''' (Japanese: '''大量発生''' ''mass outbreak''), also known as '''swarms''', are a feature introduced in Generation II that allows the {{player}} to catch Pokémon that are usually rare or otherwise unobtainable.

==[[Generation II]]==
Mass Outbreaks originated in Generation II. Several Trainers whose phone numbers can be registered occasionally call to give advice of a Pokémon outbreak and its location.

==[[Generation III]]==
{{sectionstub}}
In Generation III this method allows the player to catch Pokémon that cannot be caught normally and make rare Pokémon temporarily more common. This was possible due to the [[Mixing records|record mixing]] feature of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. The outbreaks are advised by [[television]]s in houses, where the Pokémon and its location is told.

==[[Generation IV]]==
Mass Outbreaks were largely expanded in Generation IV. Once the player attains the [[National Pokédex]], every day in a particular location, a "swarm of Pokémon" appears, which changes the probability of finding the given Pokémon from 0% to 40%. Outbreaks last only one day and are random events. Information about Mass Outbreaks can be found in [[Sandgem Town]], by watching Sinnoh [[television]], or by listening to [[Professor Oak's Pokémon Talk]].

When players all join the same [[group]], they will all experience the same outbreak on any given day.

The species of an outbreaks seems to be determined using a formula, because it is not chosen randomly when the player starts the game that day. It is also possible that the species is determined the day before, though there is no additional evidence to support this. If the DS clock is changed or a different DS is used, then the game will detect this and will not change the species swarming until 12:00 AM.

===={{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}====
By also using the [[Poké Radar]] and [[Dual-slot mode]] in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, players can get all Pokémon excluding {{p|Tangela}}, {{p|Tropius}}, the [[starter Pokémon]], and [[legendary Pokémon]] of previous generations, while Tangela, Tropius and two Legendary Trios can be regularly acquired in {{game|Platinum}}.

Many of the Pokémon obtained through Mass Outbreaks are outside of the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]], and are usually exclusive to other [[region]]s. However, the player can obtain information about the current outbreak by talking to, depending on their own [[gender]], {{ga|Dawn}}'s or {{ga|Lucas}}'s sister in [[Sandgem Town]], or seeing the news report on a [[television|TV]] in {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}.

Due to higher catching rates for Pokémon that appear during outbreaks, they make longer and better chains when using [[Poké Radar]].

Mass outbreak

[[Image:RanchSkittyOutbreak.jpg|250px|thumb|right|[[My Pokémon Ranch]] explains the general mechanics of a Mass Outbreak.]]
'''Mass Outbreaks''' (Japanese: '''大量発生''' ''mass outbreak''), also known as '''swarms''', are a feature introduced in Generation II that allows the {{player}} to catch Pokémon that are usually rare or otherwise unobtainable.

==[[Generation II]]==
Mass Outbreaks originated in Generation II. Several Trainers whose phone numbers can be registered occasionally call to give advice of a Pokémon outbreak and its location.

==[[Generation III]]==
{{sectionstub}}
In Generation III this method allows the player to catch Pokémon that cannot be caught normally and make rare Pokémon temporarily more common. This was possible due to the [[Mixing records|record mixing]] feature of {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. The outbreaks are advised by [[television]]s in houses, where the Pokémon and its location is told.

|} 

==[[Generation IV]]==
Mass Outbreaks were largely expanded in Generation IV. Once the player attains the [[National Pokédex]], every day in a particular location, a "swarm of Pokémon" appears, which changes the probability of finding the given Pokémon from 0% to 40%. Outbreaks last only one day and are random events. Information about Mass Outbreaks can be found in [[Sandgem Town]], by watching Sinnoh [[television]], or by listening to [[Professor Oak's Pokémon Talk]].

When players all join the same [[group]], they will all experience the same outbreak on any given day.

The species of an outbreaks seems to be determined using a formula, because it is not chosen randomly when the player starts the game that day. It is also possible that the species is determined the day before, though there is no additional evidence to support this. If the DS clock is changed or a different DS is used, then the game will detect this and will not change the species swarming until 12:00 AM.

===={{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}====
By also using the [[Poké Radar]] and [[Dual-slot mode]] in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, players can get all Pokémon excluding {{p|Tangela}}, {{p|Tropius}}, the [[starter Pokémon]], and [[legendary Pokémon]] of previous generations, while Tangela, Tropius and two Legendary Trios can be regularly acquired in {{game|Platinum}}.

Many of the Pokémon obtained through Mass Outbreaks are outside of the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]], and are usually exclusive to other [[region]]s. However, the player can obtain information about the current outbreak by talking to, depending on their own [[gender]], {{ga|Dawn}}'s or {{ga|Lucas}}'s sister in [[Sandgem Town]], or seeing the news report on a [[television|TV]] in {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}.

Due to higher catching rates for Pokémon that appear during outbreaks, they make longer and better chains when using [[Poké Radar]].

Trade

Unknowen900: /* Intro */

{{outdated}}
[[File:Trade Pt.png|frame|Trading confirmation screen in {{v2|Platinum}}]]
A '''trade''' 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]], [[items]] can be attached to Pokémon when traded. The only items unable to be traded are [[Key Items]], [[HMs]], the [[Griseous Orb]] in [[Generation IV]], and [[TMs]] in [[Generation V]]. Certain items, when held by the correct Pokémon, will trigger an evolution when traded to another player. [[Mail]] may also be attached to send a message.

==Benefits of trading==
[[File:Platinum trade.png|frame|Trading a Buizel for a Chatot in {{v2|Platinum}}]]
Trading is necessary in order to collect every Pokémon in the [[Pokédex]], as some Pokémon aren't available in each edition. For example, Meowth cannot be found in Pokémon Red, and the player must trade with someone who has a copy of Pokémon Blue. Some Pokémon only [[Evolution|evolve]] after being traded. Trading away a Pokémon will not remove its Pokédex entry.

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

Trading may also be used to transfer additional instances of limited and rare items, such as [[Master Ball]]s or [[Soul Dew]]s, from one game to another by making a Pokémon [[Held item|hold them]].

==Drawbacks of trading==
A traded Pokémon is referred to as an [[outsider Pokémon]], and will only obey a trainer with the sufficient number of gym badges. In addition, a traded Pokémon's nickname cannot be changed except if traded back to the original trainer. Even if a Pokémon wasn't given a nickname by its original trainer, then the trainer to whom it was traded still cannot change its name.

Traded Pokémon are identified by the Pokémon's [[Original Trainer]] name and a five-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.

In Generations I and II, an outsider Pokémon does not gain as many stats upon leveling up as a regular Pokémon.

==Limitations on trading==

===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}}.

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 Shift Factory, 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 Transfer Machine to transfer specific event Pokémon before reaching the Shift Factory, although the same restrictions apply.

Trading between Generations I and II and Generations III and IV (and soon likely V) is impossible due to the vastly different data structures that were introduced in Generation III (such as [[Individual Values]] ranging from 0 to 31), as well as the difficulty in linking a Game Boy Color game to a Game Boy Advance game and the lack of any link cable ports on later systems.

===International trading===
Trading between Japanese and non-Japanese games is not recommended in Generations I and II, mostly due to the different memory locations within the RAM. While possible, these trades will result in the corruption of save files, forcing a player to restart their game from the beginning.<ref>http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/systems/gameboy/trouble_specificgame.jsp#erasing</ref> 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.

Trading became possible between all versions of the games in [[Generation III]], where the English language text was programmed in even in 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.

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.

Interestingly, Pokémon traded from Korean-language Generation IV games will not display their names nor OTs in other language variants, because the characters are not programmed into non-Korean Generation IV games. Korean games, however, will display names from all other 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 and two copies of the game.

Prior to [[Generation IV]], trading required a [[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 link cable.

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]] or [[Nintendo DSi XL|DSi XL]], which do not have a GBA slot.

==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 {{DL|List of key items in Generation II|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===
===={{3v|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}====
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. In Emerald, trading with {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} is prohibited unless the National Pokédex has been obtained, while trading with FireRed and LeafGreen in Ruby and Sapphire will itself activate the National Pokédex automatically.

===={{2v|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. Trades with Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald are possible only after bringing the {{DL|List of key items in Generation III|Ruby}} and {{DL|List of key items in Generation III|Sapphire}} key items to complete [[Celio]]'s [[Network Machine]], which can be done only after the player has become the champion and obtained the National Pokédex.

====[[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]]
===={{3v|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. There is no prerequisite to obtain a non-regional Pokémon when trading Pokémon from another Generation IV game. 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.

===={{2v|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===

===={{2v|Black|White}}====
Trading cannot occur until the player has defeated the first gym leader and obtained the [[C-Gear]].

==Trades in the anime==
[[File:Trade machine.png|thumb|{{an|Dawn}} and {{Ash}} preparing to trade]]
Despite it being one of the key aspects of the games, trading is unusually rare in the {{pkmn|anime}}. Only a few trades have taken place, and only four of them thus far have been truly significant. 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 [[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 {{jo|Benny}}'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 {{TP|Dawn|Buizel}}.

The trade machine used in the anime has seemingly been adapted into the game canon, with [[Professor Oak]]'s laboratory in both {{en|Pokémon Stadium}} and [[Pokémon Stadium 2]] having this type of machine for trades. In the same way, when 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 I|Generations I]] and {{gen|II}}), the Pokémon are shown passing each other in the link space.

==Trivia==
* In {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, there is a [[Scientist]] at the [[Pokémon Lab]] in [[Cinnabar Island]] that would trade a Raichu for an {{p|Electrode}}. If the player talked to him after the trade, he would mention that the Raichu evolved, which is not possible. This mistake, which was due to the original translation being of the [[Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|Japanese Blue]]'s script, where you trade a {{p|Kadabra}} for his {{p|Graveler}}, both of which would evolve as a result, was corrected in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}.
*Every trade in the anime that involves a main character has resulted in at least one of the traded Pokémon later being released, except for the trade between {{jo|Benny}} and [[Jessie]].
*{{p|Porygon}} is the only Pokémon to evolve twice via trading.
**In addition, {{p|Porygon2}} is the only Pokémon to have evolved from trading that can evolve further.
**Both evolutions require a held item to succeed, namely the [[Up-Grade]] and the [[Dubious Disc]].
*{{p|Clamperl}} is the only Pokémon that can evolve into one of two Pokémon where both evolutions are achieved by trading.
* Pokémon traded between languages in Generation III, if not nicknamed, will preserve their foreign-language species name even through evolution as if it were a nickname. Thus, a Japanese Charmander named ヒトカゲ if traded to an English game for a Pichu named PICHU will evolve and keep the name ヒトカゲ even as a Charmeleon, when its Japanese species name would be リザード. Likewise, a Pichu evolved in the Japanese game would keep the name PICHU even as a Pikachu. This was solved with a bit that determined whether or not a Pokémon had been nicknamed in the Generation IV games.
** Interestingly, however, this bit's existence undoes a previous feature, where a Pokémon that evolved twice (such as Oddish), if nicknamed in all-caps the name of its evolved form (in this case, "GLOOM"), when evolved through that stage to its final form will become un-nicknamed again (taking the name "BELLOSSOM" or "VILEPLUME").
* All trading animations are shown using the standard Poké Ball, regardless of what type of ball the Pokémon being traded was actually caught in.

Trade

2010-11-28T03:02:10Z

Unknowen900: /* Trivia */ Clarified the reason for the purported evolution of Raichu in the Cinnabar trade.

{{outdated}}
[[File:Trade Pt.png|frame|Trading confirmation screen in {{v2|Platinum}}]]
A '''trade''' 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]], [[items]] can be attached to Pokémon when traded. The only items unable to be traded are [[Key Items]], and, in [[Generation IV]], the [[Griseous Orb]]. Certain items, when held by the correct Pokémon, will trigger an evolution when traded to another player. [[Mail]] may also be attached to send a message.

==Benefits of trading==
[[File:Platinum trade.png|frame|Trading a Buizel for a Chatot in {{v2|Platinum}}]]
Trading is necessary in order to collect every Pokémon in the [[Pokédex]], as some Pokémon aren't available in each edition. For example, Meowth cannot be found in Pokémon Red, and the player must trade with someone who has a copy of Pokémon Blue. Some Pokémon only [[Evolution|evolve]] after being traded. Trading away a Pokémon will not remove its Pokédex entry.

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

Trading may also be used to transfer additional instances of limited and rare items, such as [[Master Ball]]s or [[Soul Dew]]s, from one game to another by making a Pokémon [[Held item|hold them]].

==Drawbacks of trading==
A traded Pokémon is referred to as an [[outsider Pokémon]], and will only obey a trainer with the sufficient number of gym badges. In addition, a traded Pokémon's nickname cannot be changed except if traded back to the original trainer. Even if a Pokémon wasn't given a nickname by its original trainer, then the trainer to whom it was traded still cannot change its name.

Traded Pokémon are identified by the Pokémon's [[Original Trainer]] name and a five-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.

In Generations I and II, an outsider Pokémon does not gain as many stats upon leveling up as a regular Pokémon.

==Limitations on trading==

===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}}.

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 Shift Factory, 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 Transfer Machine to transfer specific event Pokémon before reaching the Shift Factory, although the same restrictions apply.

Trading between Generations I and II and Generations III and IV (and soon likely V) is impossible due to the vastly different data structures that were introduced in Generation III (such as [[Individual Values]] ranging from 0 to 31), as well as the difficulty in linking a Game Boy Color game to a Game Boy Advance game and the lack of any link cable ports on later systems.

===International trading===
Trading between Japanese and non-Japanese games is not recommended in Generations I and II, mostly due to the different memory locations within the RAM. While possible, these trades will result in the corruption of save files, forcing a player to restart their game from the beginning.<ref>http://www.nintendo.com/consumer/systems/gameboy/trouble_specificgame.jsp#erasing</ref> 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.

Trading became possible between all versions of the games in [[Generation III]], where the English language text was programmed in even in 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.

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.

Interestingly, Pokémon traded from Korean-language Generation IV games will not display their names nor OTs in other language variants, because the characters are not programmed into non-Korean Generation IV games. Korean games, however, will display names from all other 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 and two copies of the game.

Prior to [[Generation IV]], trading required a [[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 link cable.

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]] or [[Nintendo DSi XL|DSi XL]], which do not have a GBA slot.

==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 {{DL|List of key items in Generation II|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===
===={{3v|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}====
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. In Emerald, trading with {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} is prohibited unless the National Pokédex has been obtained, while trading with FireRed and LeafGreen in Ruby and Sapphire will itself activate the National Pokédex automatically.

===={{2v|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. Trades with Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald are possible only after bringing the {{DL|List of key items in Generation III|Ruby}} and {{DL|List of key items in Generation III|Sapphire}} key items to complete [[Celio]]'s [[Network Machine]], which can be done only after the player has become the champion and obtained the National Pokédex.

====[[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]]
===={{3v|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. There is no prerequisite to obtain a non-regional Pokémon when trading Pokémon from another Generation IV game. 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.

===={{2v|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===

===={{2v|Black|White}}====
Trading cannot occur until the player has defeated the first gym leader and obtained the [[C-Gear]].

==Pokémon which evolve when traded==
Many of these Pokémon also require [[evolution-inducing held item|an item]] to be held by them at the time of trading for their evolution to take place.

===From [[Generation I]]===
*{{p|Kadabra}} → {{p|Alakazam}}
*{{p|Machoke}} → {{p|Machamp}}
*{{p|Graveler}} → {{p|Golem}}
*{{p|Haunter}} → {{p|Gengar}}

*{{p|Clamperl}} → {{p|Gorebyss}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|DeepSeaScale}} is held)

===From [[Generation IV]]===
*{{p|Rhydon}} → {{p|Rhyperior}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Protector}} is held)
*{{p|Electabuzz}} → {{p|Electivire}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Electirizer}} is held)
*{{p|Magmar}} → {{p|Magmortar}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Magmarizer}} is held)
*{{p|Porygon2}} → {{p|Porygon-Z}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Dubious Disc}} is held)
*{{p|Dusclops}} → {{p|Dusknoir}} (if {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Reaper Cloth}} is held)

==Trades in the anime==
[[File:Trade machine.png|thumb|{{an|Dawn}} and {{Ash}} preparing to trade]]
Despite it being one of the key aspects of the games, trading is unusually rare in the {{pkmn|anime}}. Only a few trades have taken place, and only four of them thus far have been truly significant. 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 [[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 {{jo|Benny}}'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 {{TP|Dawn|Buizel}}.

The trade machine used in the anime has seemingly been adapted into the game canon, with [[Professor Oak]]'s laboratory in both {{en|Pokémon Stadium}} and [[Pokémon Stadium 2]] having this type of machine for trades. In the same way, when 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 I|Generations I]] and {{gen|II}}), the Pokémon are shown passing each other in the link space.

==Trivia==
* In {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, there is a [[Scientist]] at the [[Pokémon Lab]] in [[Cinnabar Island]] that would trade a Raichu for an {{p|Electrode}}. If the player talked to him after the trade, he would mention that the Raichu evolved, which is not possible. This mistake, which was due to the original translation being of the [[Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|Japanese Blue]]'s script, where you trade a {{p|Kadabra}} for his {{p|Graveler}}, both of which would evolve as a result, was corrected in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}.
*Every trade in the anime that involves a main character has resulted in at least one of the traded Pokémon later being released, except for the trade between {{jo|Benny}} and [[Jessie]].
*{{p|Porygon}} is the only Pokémon to evolve twice via trading.
**In addition, {{p|Porygon2}} is the only Pokémon to have evolved from trading that can evolve further.
**Both evolutions require a held item to succeed, namely the [[Up-Grade]] and the [[Dubious Disc]].
*{{p|Clamperl}} is the only Pokémon that can evolve into one of two Pokémon where both evolutions are achieved by trading.
* Pokémon traded between languages in Generation III, if not nicknamed, will preserve their foreign-language species name even through evolution as if it were a nickname. Thus, a Japanese Charmander named ヒトカゲ if traded to an English game for a Pichu named PICHU will evolve and keep the name ヒトカゲ even as a Charmeleon, when its Japanese species name would be リザード. Likewise, a Pichu evolved in the Japanese game would keep the name PICHU even as a Pikachu. This was solved with a bit that determined whether or not a Pokémon had been nicknamed in the Generation IV games.
** Interestingly, however, this bit's existence undoes a previous feature, where a Pokémon that evolved twice (such as Oddish), if nicknamed in all-caps the name of its evolved form (in this case, "GLOOM"), when evolved through that stage to its final form will become un-nicknamed again (taking the name "BELLOSSOM" or "VILEPLUME").
* All trading animations are shown using the standard Poké Ball, regardless of what type of ball the Pokémon being traded was actually caught in.

*The foe is not forced to use the corresponding move.
*Neither user is locked into using the move.
*The user does not need to be hit in order to receive a power boost. The user does, however, need to attack after the user of the other move, and in the same turn.
I'm changing it. — [[User:Unknowen900|Unknowen900]] 13:10, 22 November 2010 (UTC)
:Wait, hold on. Where's your evidence that this is wrong? EVERY source I've seen affirms that Cross Flame forces the foe to use Cross Thunder, if possible. Are you getting your information directly from the game, or from another (possibly incorrect) source? --[[User:AndyPKMN|AndyPKMN]] [[User talk:AndyPKMN|(talk)]] 16:28, 22 November 2010 (UTC)
::Directly from in-game usage of the move by myself. In the battle against N, he seemingly always uses Cross Thunder/Cross Flame on the first turn, as I generally also do for the sake of being epic. His is higher level than you catch yours, and as the battle with him is directly after (and the game, if you had an open slot, moves your Reshiram/Zekrom to the first slot), his always moves first. If I choose not to use mine, I am not forced to do so. Whether or not I use mine, neither of get locked into using the move. For example, the first time I fought him I opened with Cross Flame (wanted to see what it looked like, which worked out well as he used Cross Thunder in the same turn before me), and then follow this up with Dragon Claw, which didn't do much as he had used Reflect. I re-battled him several times, as I was forcing myself to do those three battles in a row, restarting if I failed one, and the first two errors I noted were obvious through this repeated testing. The third error I have seen a series of screenshots of, depicting a double battle against two low level wild Pokémon using Cross Flame and Cross Thunder, with Cross Flame using the boosted animation (the move looks more powerful when boosted by Cross Thunder). — [[User:Unknowen900|Unknowen900]] 05:42, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

(Japanese: '''フリーズボルト''' ''Freeze Bolt'') is a damage-dealing {{type2|Ice}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation V]].

==Effect==
Freeze Bolt deals damage, has a 30% chance of {{status|Paralysis|paralyzing}} the target.

Freeze Bolt does nothing on the turn it is selected, other than state that the user is charging. On the following turn, Freeze Bolt will deal damage, PP will be deducted from it, and it will count as the last move used. Once Freeze Bolt is selected, the user won't be able to switch out until it is disrupted or fully executed.

If Freeze Bolt is not fully executed, PP will not be deducted from it, and it will not count as the last move used. If the target uses {{m|Mirror Move}} during the turn that the user is charging, Mirror Move will copy the move that the user executed immediately before using Freeze Bolt (or fail if it can't).

{{status|Sleep}}, {{status|freeze}}, partial trapping, and flinching will pause but not disrupt the duration of Freeze Bolt.

==Learnset==
===[[Generation V]]===
Currently, no Pokémon is known to learn Freeze Bolt by any means.

==Trivia==
* This move seems to draw reference to both {{p|Zekrom}} and {{p|Kyurem}}, as it is Ice-type and its name and side-effect are related to the {{t|Electric}} type. This has led fans to speculate that Kyurem will be able to use this move in a third game taking place in the [[Isshu]] region, perhaps in an [[alternate form]].
** Also, a move that is believed to be its polar opposite, {{m|Cold Flare}}, seems to also draw reference to Kyurem's typing and Zekrom's polar opposite, {{p|Reshiram}}.
** Furthermore, the animation for the actual attacking part is very similar to that of {{m|Lightning Strike}}.

Cross Thunder inflicts damage. The base power of Cross Thunder will double if another Pokémon uses {{m|Cross Flame}} in the same turn before the Pokémon using Cross Thunder, and this boost will only last until the end of turn.

([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ペンドラー''' ''Pendra'') is a dual-type {{2t|Bug|Poison}} Pokémon introduced in [[Generation V]].

It evolves from {{p|Hoiiga}} starting at level 30. It is the final form of {{p|Fushide}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Pendra is a centipede-like Pokémon, with bright magenta coloration interspersed with purple rings spaced evenly along its segmented upper body. Its horns, extending from its head in a similar way to antennae, are long and slightly twisted. Purple banding decorates its horns, as well as its similarly-shaped dual tails. It has four pairs of purple-tipped forelegs, capable of injecting poison. Its legs further down its body are longer, with curved black patterns and black tipping on the extremities of the limb.

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

===Special abilities===
The claws on its neck can inject powerful poison that could paralyze or kill any Pokémon who got contacted with it.

===Behavior===
Pendra are very aggressive, and will chase down its enemies with its horns. It gives no mercy to its opponent until it strikes the final blow.

===Habitat===

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
===Major appearances===
[[File:Pendra anime.png|thumb|right|250px|Pendra in the anime]]
A wild Pendra appeared in [[BW009]]. [[Iris's Kibago]] fell out of a tree and got caught in Pendra's antennae. This startled Pendra and caused it to go on a rampage, until [[Iris's Doryuzu]] decided to defeat it with its {{m|Drill Liner}} attack.

==Trivia==
*Pendra is the largest {{type2|Bug}} Pokémon, measuring up to 2.5m long.

===Origin===
Pendra's species shows that it was inspired by the {{wp|centipede}}, most likely the {{wp|Scolopendra heros arizonensis}}. However, other than the barbs on its head and backside, Pendra has more in common with {{wp|millipedes}}, most likely a red {{wp|Archispirostreptus gigas}}, a species of millipede often kept as a pet.

====Name origin====
Pendra's name derives from ''Scolopendra'', a genus of centipedes.

List of Pokémon with form differences

2010-11-21T11:24:36Z

Unknowen900: /* Meloetta */

While there are {{numpkmn}} officially recognized [[Pokémon|species of Pokémon]], with most members of an individual species looking relatively similar to one another, several Pokémon species have remarkable '''differences in appearance''' between members. At times, these differences are purely cosmetic, and have no bearing on the difference in the Pokémon's stats from another; however, several Pokémon not only differ in stats, but also type, depending on their form.

Among these are several [[legendary Pokémon]], whose unique forms can be changed between at will, and are spelled officially as "Formes". Many of the forms are known to have special names, while others do not, and are thus only named in [[fanon]]. In Generations II-IV, whichever form is encountered first will be the form displayed in the [[Pokédex]] by default; i.e., a player who encountered a West Sea Shellos would have it appear in the Pokédex by default, while one who encounters an East Sea Shellos first would see that Shellos appear in the Pokédex first. In Generation V the form displayed in the Pokédex can be changed upon reaching {{city|Fukiyose}}, even to a shiny form, if encountered.

==Pokémon with differing forms==
===Pichu===
In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, an alternate form of {{p|Pichu}} will appear at [[Ilex Forest]] (but only if the player has a {{DL|List of Nintendo event Pokémon with in-game effects|Pikachu-colored Pichu}} in their party). This Pichu has a tuft of hair on the end of its left ear, and is known as the [[Spiky-eared Pichu]]. Spiky-eared Pichu's [[Pokéathlon]] [[performance]] stats are different than a normal Pichu's. It is always a female.

|- align="center"
| Normal [[File:Spr 4h 172.png]]
| Spiky-eared [[File:Spr 4h 172N.png]]
|}

===Unown===
{{p|Unown}} was the first known Pokémon which had visual differences between individuals of the species. From the species' debut in [[Generation II]], each Unown would have an appearance similar to that of one of the twenty-six letters of the {{wp|Latin alphabet}}. In [[Generation III]], two more forms were added, corresponding to the {{wp|question mark}} and {{wp|exclamation point}}.

A special [[Unown Dex]], an upgrade to the Pokédex that was developed by the researchers at the [[Ruins of Alph]] to record the different forms of Unown, was available in [[Generation II]] after the player had caught several Unown. This was superseded in {{v2|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} by the [[Unown Report]], obtainable after the player completes the first tile puzzle in the [[Ruins of Alph]].

Unown's form is determined in [[Generation III]] based on its [[personality value]]. Though the form has no bearing on [[base stats]], ! and ? Unown have different [[performance]] stats than their alphabetical brethren.

|}

===Spinda===
Like Unown, {{p|Spinda}} has many visual variations in its species, all involving the placement of its spots. Like Unown's letter, the spot placement is generated based on the individual's [[personality value]], and likewise, has no effect on the Pokémon's stats. Unlike Unown, however, these differences are rarely repeated, as the calculation uses the entirety of the personality value—a number that can [[Personality value#Spinda's spots|range]] from [[Spinda (Pokémon)#Trivia|zero to 4,294,967,295]] (232 - 1).

|
| style="background: #{{normal color light}}; {{roundybottom|10px}}" | [[File:327.png]]
|}

===Castform===
{{p|Castform}}'s first appearance at [[Hoenn]]'s [[Weather Institute]] in [[Generation III]] brought about the concept of interchangeable forms. Unlike other Pokémon, an individual Castform's form is not static, and will change, due to its [[ability]], with the [[weather]].

Normally, Castform takes on a rather plain appearance, with a gray body. In this form, it is of the {{type2|Normal}}; as could be expected, it is in this form that it is at its least effective.

When Castform is exposed to [[Weather conditions#Intense sunlight|bright rays of sunlight]], it changes its form to a more sunny appearance, and becomes a {{type2|Fire}} (Sunny Form). In [[Weather conditions#Heavy rain|rain]], Castform becomes more like a raindrop, and becomes a {{type2|Water}} (Rainy Form). Finally, in [[Weather conditions#Hailstorm|hail]], Castform takes the form of a snowy cloud, and becomes an {{type2|Ice}} (Snowy Form).
It will not transform in any other [[weather conditions]].

Castform's [[stats]] do not change between any of these forms.

| width="25%" style="background: #{{ice color light}}; -moz-border-radius: 10px;" | Snowy Form [[File:351H.png]] {{typecolor|Ice}}
|}

===Deoxys===
{{p|Deoxys}}, the final Pokémon in the [[National Pokédex]] as of [[Generation III]], was the first known Pokémon whose [[base stats]] and [[move]] compatibility differed, as well as its appearance, depending on its form. First introduced in ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', Deoxys was revealed to have three alternating forms, while a fourth was added later, with the release of {{game|Emerald}}. Like its base stats, its Pokéathlon performance varies depending on its form.

Deoxys's forms are game-specific in [[Generation III]], but can be changed at will in [[Generation IV]] by inspecting the meteorites in [[Veilstone City]] in [[Sinnoh]] and {{rt|3|Kanto}} in [[Kanto]].

Deoxys's Normal Forme is the default form it takes, as well as the form it appears in in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. In this form, its stats are more balanced, though it is notably far more offensive than it is defensive.

It is in this form that Deoxys will be found in the wild on [[Birth Island]], though it will transform after it has been captured, depending on its [[Generation III]] game version.

The Attack Forme is the appearance that Deoxys takes on in {{game|FireRed}}, and it learns noticeably more powerful moves while in this form. Its {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Special Attack}} stats have been maxed out, making it the most powerful of all Pokémon in both aspects, while its {{stat|Speed}} remains the same as its default form. Its defensive stats, however, take a harsh blow, lowering so much that it is only more powerful in {{stat|Defense}} than seven Pokémon (tied with three others), and is tied for last place in {{stat|Special Defense}} with five others, including {{p|Magikarp}}.

In {{game|LeafGreen}}, the counterpart version to FireRed, Deoxys takes on a counterpart form to the Attack Forme, the Defense Forme. Whereas the Attack Forme had incredible offensive power (and incredibly weak defensive capabilities), Defense Forme inverts this somewhat, having mediocre offensive power (and a lower Speed stat) and heightened {{stat|Defense}} and {{stat|Special Defense}}. This form of Deoxys learns moves more attuned to attrition than to elimination, raising its already high defenses to protect against opponents' moves rather than attack them before they can attack.

By far the quickest of all Pokémon, Deoxys in its Speed Forme learns many moves that can guarantee that it will strike before any other Pokémon can. Though it can still be outsped by a Pokémon with {{a|Speed Boost}}, Speed Forme Deoxys takes the uneven nature of the stats of Deoxys's other forms and balances them out, keeping it from hitting too hard, but at the same time, preventing it from being hit too hard itself.

|}

===Burmy and Wormadam===
Both {{p|Burmy}} and its female evolution, {{p|Wormadam}}, have three separate forms, being the first Pokémon whose evolution depends on a specific form. Like others, Burmy can change form freely, depending on where it last participated in a battle actively ([[Exp. Share]] maintains a Burmy's form if it does not leave the [[Poké Ball]]); however, Wormadam's form is permanent.

If a Burmy last battled in a grassy outside area, hatched from an egg whose Wormadam parent was in the Plant Cloak, or hatched from an egg that had {{p|Mothim}} and {{p|Ditto}} as parents, it will be in its basic state, the Plant Cloak. This form of Burmy is covered in leaves and twigs. If a female, it will evolve into Wormadam in its Plant Cloak, which is a {{2t|Bug|Grass}} Pokémon.

If a Burmy last battled on a beach or in a cave, or hatched from an egg whose Wormadam parent was in the Sandy Cloak, it will be in the Sandy Cloak. This form of Burmy is covered in sand and rocks. If a female, it will evolve into Wormadam in its Sandy Cloak, which is a {{2t|Bug|Ground}} Pokémon.

If a Burmy last battled inside of a building, or hatched from an egg whose Wormadam parent was in the Trash Cloak, it will be in the Trash Cloak. This form of Burmy is covered in pink {{wp|building insulation|insulation}}. If a female, it will evolve into Wormadam in its Trash Cloak, which is a {{2t|Bug|Steel}} Pokémon.

A Wormadam's stats and move compatibility vary with her form, in addition to type and appearance. The cloak a male Burmy takes on before evolution makes no difference, as it sheds it upon evolution into {{p|Mothim}}.

===Cherrim===
Like Castform, {{p|Cherrim}} changes its appearance depending on the weather, though not with all kinds. It will be in its Sunshine form in [[Weather_effect#Intense_sunlight|intense sunlight]] and its Overcast form in any other weather. Due to its {{a|Flower Gift|ability}}, its {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Special Defense}} will also increase in its Sunshine form. Unlike Castform, its type does not change.

===Shellos and Gastrodon===
Another [[Sinnoh]]-native [[evolution]] family, {{p|Shellos}} and {{p|Gastrodon}} also have a difference, depending on, this time, whether the Pokémon in question was caught east or west of [[Mt. Coronet]]. Like others before, neither form can change to the other, but unlike other multiple-form Pokémon, the appearance of the mother is the determinant to the appearance of the hatched Pokémon.

Both West Sea Shellos and Gastrodon take on a pink appearance, while their East Sea cousins take on a blue hue. There is also a slight difference in bodily appearance depending on the form.

===Rotom===
In August of 2008, shortly before the Japanese release of {{game|Platinum}}, five silhouetted Pokémon were shown, with a statement that indicated that these Pokémon would be in the game. Days before the game's release, it was revealed that these Pokémon were alternate forms of {{p|Rotom}}.

In each of these forms, Rotom has possessed a different {{wp|household appliance}}, and each has its own special [[move]]. Heat Rotom, which has possessed a {{wp|microwave oven}}, knows {{m|Overheat}} and is {{2t|Electric|Fire}}; Wash Rotom, which has possessed a {{wp|washing machine}}, knows {{m|Hydro Pump}} and is {{2t|Electric|Water}}; Frost Rotom, which has possessed a {{wp|refrigerator}}, knowns {{m|Blizzard}} and is {{2t|Electric|Ice}}; Fan Rotom, which has possessed a {{wp|mechanical fan|rotary fan}}, knows {{m|Air Slash}} and is {{2t|Electric|Flying}}; and Mow Rotom, which has possessed a {{wp|lawn mower}}, knows {{m|Leaf Storm}} and is {{2t|Electric|Grass}}.

Until [[Generation V]], all forms of Rotom were {{2t|Electric|Ghost}}-type. All alternate forms have the same base stat total, which is higher than that of normal Rotom.

|}

===Giratina===
{{p|Giratina}}, much like {{p|Deoxys}} had been earlier, was announced to have an alternate form in the then-upcoming ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'' in February, 2008. One of the two forms is the familiar form to players of {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, designated as Altered Forme Giratina, while the other is a more serpentine form that was not previously known, the Origin Forme.

The Origin Forme is known as Giratina's natural form, which it appears in in its home of the [[Reverse World]] (in the anime) and [[Distortion World]] (in the games). If it travels to the [[Pokémon world]], it assumes its Altered Forme. Both Formes appear in {{game|Platinum}}, where Giratina is captured in the [[Distortion World]] in its more offense-oriented Origin Forme, and will revert to the defensive Altered Forme outside of this area unless it holds the [[Type-enhancing item#Griseous Orb|Griseous Orb]].

|}

===Shaymin===
As with Giratina, an alternate form of the event Pokémon {{p|Shaymin}} was announced to appear in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'', and is, in fact, the titular sky warrior. This new Sky Forme of Shaymin, with the previously-known form now called the Land Forme, has a completely altered appearance and, rather than being a pure-{{type2|Grass}}, is now {{2t|Grass|Flying}}.

Like Giratina and Deoxys's transformations are activated by an external source, Shaymin's is activated by contact with a {{OBP|Gracidea|flower}}, whose bouquets look almost like a sleeping Shaymin.

A Shaymin in its Sky Forme will revert to its Land Forme if {{status|frozen}} or during {{DL|Time|night}}.

It is interesting to note that upon changing forms, Shaymin also changes its [[cry]]. It is the only Pokémon to do so.

|}

===Arceus===
{{p|Arceus}} has eighteen different forms, each with a slightly different coloration, which correspond to the eighteen different [[elemental types]].

Arceus's transformation between these Formes is brought about by its held item: if it is holding a [[plate]], it draws its type from that plate as stated in [[Sinnoh myths|Sinnoh's mythology]], while remaining {{type2|Normal}} when not holding a plate or holding any non-plate item.

The {{type2|???}} Forme of Arceus exists only in Generation IV, and is currently unavailable in any legitimate manner, as there is no plate to turn it to this type. Educated speculation attributes this to an attempt made by Game Freak as an error handler. This is supported by the fact that there is no ???-type sprite data for Arceus in the Generation V games, because the ???-type was removed entirely from Generation V.

While its base stats remain constant despite its changing type, its Pokéathlon performance changes slightly.

===Basurao===
Similar to {{p|Shellos}} and {{p|Gastrodon}}, {{p|Basurao}} can appear in two different forms—the Red Stripe form and the Blue Stripe form. The Red Stripe form sports a red stripe, with wide eyes and spiky fins, while the other has a blue stripe, with squinted eyes and smooth fins. Its color depends on the version it is found in, with the Red Stripe form appearing in {{game|Black and White|s|Black}} and the Blue Stripe form appearing in {{game|Black and White|s|White}}. However, rare instances of the other color can be found in the game by {{m|surf}}ing on or [[fishing]] in swirling water.

Red Stripe Basurao have a 5% chance to hold a [[DeepSeaTooth]] while Blue Stripe Basurao have a 5% chance to hold a [[DeepSeaScale]].

===Hihidaruma===
If {{p|Hihidaruma}} has {{a|Daruma Mode}} as its ability, it changes into Daruma mode when its HP drops to below half. Hihidaruma in Daruma mode is blue in color, has Psychic as a secondary type, inverts its Attack and Special Attack from normal Hihidaruma, and has boosted defenses and lowered Speed.

===Shikijika and Mebukijika===
{{p|Shikijika}} changes its appearance depending on the [[Seasons|season]], each of which lasts a month in real time, rather than three. During spring, its coat will be pink; during summer, green; during autumn, orange; and during winter, brown.

{{p|Mebukijika}}, Shikijika's evolved form, also differs with the season, with flowers in its antlers during spring; a full set of leaves in its antlers in summer; brown and wilting leaves in the autumn; and white antlers along with sections of thicker, white fur in the winter.

{{p|Meloetta}}, if the move {{m|Ancient Song}}, which it can learn from a man in [[Hiun City]], is used in battle it will transform between its Step and Voice Formes, which changes its typing from {{2t|Normal|Psychic}} to {{2t|Normal|Fighting}} and STAB moves.

===Genesect===
{{p|Genesect}} has five different Formes, each depending on whether or not a Cassette is held and which Cassette it is. However, this does not change Genesect's type, but rather the type of the move {{m|Techno Buster}}. If it lacks a Cassette, it will be {{type2|Normal}}. The four Cassettes the can be equipped are the Lightning, Blaze, Freeze, and Aqua Cassettes, which make the move {{t|Electric}}, {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Ice}}, and {{type2|Water}}, respectively. Otherwise, the change is purely cosmetic, with the physical difference being the ammo cartridge in Genesect's cannon.

===Other Pokémon===
* The [[Generation I]] [[Pokédex]] entries for {{p|Arbok}} state that the markings on its belly differ between [[region]]s. The pattern has differed in sprites; however, this is dependent on the game the Pokémon is in, rather than the game in which it was caught.
* {{p|Shellder}} also changes between bivalve and spiral-shaped variations depending on whether or not it is attached to a {{p|Slowpoke}}'s {{p|Slowking|head}} or {{p|Slowbro|tail}}.
* From [[Generation IV]] onward, there are many Pokémon that [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|appear differently]] as a result of their [[gender]], some drastically, some not.
* [[Shadow Lugia|XD001]] was a {{pkmn2|Shadow}} {{p|Lugia}} that was so thoroughly corrupted that its appearance changed.
* [[Primal Dialga|A Dialga]] also changed its appearance when it lost control of time in {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness}}.
* {{p|Mantyke}}'s Pokédex entry in Pearl says that the special patterns on its back vary from region to region. Unlike Arbok, however, its backsprite shows no difference between Sinnoh and Johto games, and has the same smile in {{game|Black and White|s}}.

* The {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} Pokédex entries for {{p|Weezing}} state that triplet forms have been discovered; however, this variant has not been shown in any Pokémon media. A third section of Weezing (without a face) appears on every Weezing seen so far.

Version-exclusive Pokémon

2010-11-19T06:44:12Z

Unknowen900: Not a sub-comment.

'''Version-exclusive Pokémon''' are Pokémon that are only found in one or two games in a single [[generation]], to encourage trading between multiple players. For instance, in the original {{game3|Red and Green|Pokémon Red|s}}, {{p|Bellsprout}} was absent but appeared in {{game3|Red and Green|Pokémon Green|s}} ({{game3|Red and Blue|Pokémon Blue|s}} outside Japan). Version-exclusive Pokémon usually complement each other in design, type, as well as location of appearance in the wild.

It is typical for several [[List of Pokémon by evolution family|evolutionary families]] of Pokémon to be version exclusives in the first two games of a generation, and then, in the third version, some version-exclusives from the first two games will be obtainable, while others while not, and in the third version, some Pokémon will be unobtainable that were obtainable in both of the first two games. For example, the {{p|Weedle}} and {{p|Koffing}} families were obtainable in both {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, but unobtainable in {{game|Yellow}}.

Below is a list of Pokémon exclusive to games. This list does not take note of Pokémon exclusive between [[Generation III]] [[Kanto]] and [[Hoenn]] games, simply because there are too many Pokémon that are native to each individual region to list; a better indicator of those Pokémon which are missing from each region would be the [[List of Pokémon by National Pokédex number|Kanto Pokédex]] and [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number|Hoenn Pokédex]]. However, even this does not take {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} into account, since the vast majority thereof is only listed in the [[National Pokédex|National Pokédex]] of those games. Furthermore, a list of Pokémon missing from the Generation III GameCube games, [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and {{Pokémon XD}}, is far too long to be included in this context.

Take note that the Pokémon listed below are from that particular game, and will need to be traded from a game ''within the same generation'' that does not list them. Therefore, Pokémon obtainable in Generation II by trading with [[Generation I]], Pokémon obtainable in [[Generation IV]] by [[Dual-slot mode|utilizing GBA games]], [[legendary Pokémon]] and [[starter Pokémon]] and Pokémon obtained from attending promotional events, are all excluded from the following list.

It is of relevant note that in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, most of the version exclusives of the [[Generation III]] games can be caught in the wild by [[dual-slot mode|inserting one of the GBA games into the DS]]. In Pokémon XD, the seven Emerald-absent Pokémon are all obtainable, thus eliminating the need in trading with either {{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Pokémon Ruby or Pokémon Sapphire|s}}.

=={{color2|{{kanto color}}|Generation I}}==
Please note that the [[Pokémon Blue Version (Japanese)|Japanese Blue Version]] does not have the same Pokémon distribution as the {{game3|Red and Blue|English Blue Version|s}}. The English Blue's Pokémon distribution is in fact the same as that of the {{game3|Red and Green|Japanese Green|s}}. Listed below under the "Blue" header is the Japanese Blue.

* Note that while {{p|Monmen}} and {{p|Churine}} are only available in the wild in Black and White respectively, there is an [[List of in-game trades|in-game trade]] in [[Shippou City]] for the Pokémon which is exclusive to the other game. By extension, this also allows {{p|Erufuun}} and {{p|Doredia}} to be obtained in the versions they are otherwise unobtainable in.

=={{color|{{Md blue color}}|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon}}==
As trading is not possible between these games, the listed Pokémon will appear in the wild only when a rescue mission involving the Pokémon is completed. This requires a [[Wonder Mail]] Code from the alternate version, in which the Pokémon is normally found.

* All version-exclusive Pokémon in these games can be unlocked in the other game through [[Wonder Mail]] except those exclusive to [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Explorers of Sky]]. Note that {{p|Riolu}} and {{p|Lucario}} will only appear after graduating from the [[Wigglytuff's Guild|guild]] in Explorers of Sky due to Riolu being a [[starter Pokémon]].

==Trivia==
* Due to a large number of wild Pokémon that can only be caught on [[White Forest]] which is an area that is exclusive only to [[Pokémon Black and White Versions|Pokémon White]], Pokémon White has the largest number of version-exclusive Pokémon of any Pokémon game to date.

Talk:Version-exclusive Pokémon

2010-11-19T06:41:15Z

Unknowen900: /* Definition of version-exclusive Pokémon */

<big><big><big>Hey guys!</big></big></big>

Remember how this page used to be about how certain Pokémon were ''missing'' from certain games, and how it confused the hell out of everyone? Yes? Well, thanks to [[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|The Trom]]'s efforts, we've hopefully fixed that. The page now lists Pokémon and marks which versions they are or aren't available in. For more information, check out [[/Archive1#How about this?|this discussion]]. ---[[User:Martonimos|((Marton]] [[User talk:Martonimos|imos))]] 12:15, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

==Archives==
*[[/Archive1|Archive 1]] (discussions from before the switch/October 5, 2006 – January 4, 2009)

==New discussion==
Looks good but even the ''not available'' boxes for the mystery dungeons link to the pages.--[[User:MisterE13|Mister]][[User talk:MisterE13|'''E''']][[Special:Contributions/MisterE13|13]] 16:43, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
:That was a design technique of {{u|Jioruji Derako}}. It's the same for all boxes on this page. Available or not available, they all link to the page. — [[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|THE TROM]] — 21:07, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
::Coulda' sworn it wasn't like that before but if they're all like that then it's OK. Some other templates that use a similar system might have to be changed though. (ie. Move Tutors)--[[User:MisterE13|Mister]][[User talk:MisterE13|'''E''']][[Special:Contributions/MisterE13|13]] 23:23, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

== G instead of B ==

Anyone have any problems with it as it is? The note is clear enough that Green means US Blue and Blue means the Japanese one? '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 04:07, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
:This is great. The entire article is 100x better. The design just feels more welcoming. I'm ashamed I didn't think of this style before. As for the G/B thing, I think it's rather clear. [[User:DanPMK|MK]] 15:54, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

== Emerald safari zone vs. Birds and Regis in Pt ==

Why is it we have the Emerald safari zone ones outside of the table, yet for certain Pokémon in Platinum, we mention them when both groups require the national dex?--[[User:MisterE13|Mister]][[User talk:MisterE13|'''E''']][[Special:Contributions/MisterE13|13]] 22:02, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
:We can blame me for that. Because of the approx. 30 Emerald exclusives, I decided just to list them, or the table would be larger than the warnings previously here. Platinum didn't have as many exclusives as Emerald so I put them in the table. — [[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|THE TROM]] — 08:46, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

== Possible other tables ==

It might be helpful to have a table to show Pokemon completely unavailable in certain generations without trading with other generations (e.g. Mewtwo for Generation II, or Larvitar for Generation III). Perhaps even a table of those Pokemon to appear in every version of the game without trading might be interesting, if somewhat less useful. I admit, I can't really be bothered to do this myself at the moment, but I could later. [[User:Idantlol|Idantlol]] 22:25, 23 February 2009 (UTC)
:The reason we haven't got these listed (particularly for Gen III) is because of the sheer amount of Pokemon excluded in the Hoenn games (see [[HDex]]). And typically, starters and legnedaries cannot be obtained in other games than their originals. — [[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|THE TROM]] — 06:17, 24 February 2009 (UTC)
::Even so, it isn't an impossible task to list 186 pokemon (if we include Jirachi and Deoxys). If the worst comes to the worst, you could just make a separate page for it. As it is, it can be quite a hassle finding information on where some pokemon are actually found. [[User:Idantlol|Idantlol]] 18:07, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

== Seedot in Sapphire and Lotad in Ruby? ==
The article claims the following: ''"Surskit can be found in Pokémon Emerald, but only when the TV says they're swarming somewhere. Through the same way, Lotad and Seedot can be found in Ruby and Sapphire, respectively."'' The second doesn't seem right to me. I have played pokémon Sapphire for over 700 hours (I know, call me lifeles) and I have never met any Seedot swarm through the tv (I did see surskit and skitty swarms however). Also I looked it up on internet and I didn't find any info about seedot being catchable in Sapphire or Lotad in ruby. Even great sites like serebii.net never mention it and just say that the only way to get seedot in sapphire and lotad in ruby is by trading them from the other version.

::I have done that like fifty times with ruby players, sapphire players and emerald players. Can't someone upload a screenshot or a link to a video for evidence or something? [[User:Mijzelffan|Mijzelffan]] 11:28, 10 May 2009 (UTC)

== HG/SS Version Exclusives ==

Hey I was browsing around the Net and Serebii just made a list of the version exclusive Pokémon. I don't know set the chart of them up. Could omeone do it, or tell me how? ♪♪[[User:ShinyPachirisu|Shiny]] [[User Talk:ShinyPachirisu|Pachirisu]] :) ♪♪ 19:44, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

Any news if they are going to pull the American swith-a-roo with Phanpy and Teddiursa like in Generation II?[[User:Zabbethx|Zabbethx]] 21:22, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
:None yet. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 21:24, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

== Generation II: Japanese or American list? ==

The Gen II section opens with a comment explaining that the Pokémon exclusive to either Gold or Silver are reversed between version when you compare the Japanese to the American. However, it doesn't point out which nation's list is presented... Help? [[User:Doctorhook|Doctorhook]] 01:19, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
:it quite obviously states that "in the Japanese versions, they ae the opposite" which must mean the lists are according to the English versions. after all, this is an English wiki. -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|MAG]][[User:MAGNEDETH#Interesting Stuff|NE]][[User talk:MAGNEDETH|DETH]]''' 01:27, 20 November 2009 (UTC)

==Here's an Idea==
Even though that Latios and Latias are not true version exclusives because of the hacking or events, people can mistake them as version exclusives, but my plan is to mention this in a short paragraph with the intention of reducing confusion, but I need some input to see what other people think of this, though I do know what I will write about this. -[[User:Tyler53841|Tyler53841]] 20:55, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

==Missing from the List==
I don't know for sure, but i think Mr. Mime and Mime Jr. are exclusive to Diamond version (they may be in platinum, i'm not sure), but i know they're not in pearl. At the same time, Bonsley and Suduwoodo are only in Pearl Version(again, i don't know about platinum) I hope this helps:) {{unsigned|Canus albinus}}
:You can get the respective pre-evos in the Trophy Garden... and Mr. Mime is in Platinum, it's somewhere around Route 218. Sudowoodo's on 221 in Platinum. So they're in all the games. ▫▪''[[User:Tina|Ťïňắ]]'' [[User talk:Tina|♫]][[Special:Contributions/Tina|♥]] 16:13, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

== Pokewalker ==

On the event {{pa|Rally}} and {{pa|Sightseeing}} courses, the player can get {{p|Sableye}} and {{p|Meowth}} respectively on both versions, though these are normally exclusives. Should this be mentioned? [[User:Jmvb|Jmvb]] 13:12, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
:I doubt it. It's the case for lots of Pokéwalker courses... in fact, you can even get Pokémon you shouldn't be able to catch until after the National Dex. Maybe mentioning how the Pokéwalker changes the availability of Pokémon, but I wouldn't go beyond that.

==Pokémon White==

Isn't the BW version exclusive list a bit... big? It seems kinda confusing. Does anyone think it would be a good idea to have a separate list for all the White Forest exclusives? We don't seem to include Pokémon that are found in Emerald's Safari Zone in Ruby and Sapphire's list. [[User:PDL|PDL]] 02:48, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

== Definition of version-exclusive Pokémon ==

Version-exclusive Pokémon are Pokémon which can be obtained in one game but not another when the games are in the same pair/triplet, without intervention from another of the same game. Events and the Dream World are not counted in this. It has nothing to do with wild availability. Cranidos and Shieldon are version exclusive, as are Persian and Primeape, despite not being available in the wild.

* Strongly agreed. Quite honestly, I'm not sure Monmen and Churine should even be listed as such, as you can get the other one via an in-game trade. [[User:Unknowen900|Unknowen900]] 06:41, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
