'''Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン不思議のダンジョン空の探検隊''' ''Pokémon Fushigi no Dungeon Sora no Tankentai'') is a game developed by [[Chunsoft]], and a sister game to [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]]. The game was first announced in [[CoroCoro]], which released the first details in January 2009. It was officially released in Japan on April 18, 2009 and is set to be released in North America on October 12th, 2009.

==New features==
*Players can now play as four new [[starter Pokémon]]: {{p|Phanpy}}, {{p|Vulpix}}, {{p|Riolu}}, and {{p|Shinx}}. Moreover, every starter Pokémon from the previous games, excluding Munchlax and Meowth, can now be a partner.
*Players can now play the music used in the game with the '''Sky Jukebox'''.
*There is a new place called '''Spinda's Café''' where the following can be found:
**'''Spinda's Juice Bar''' grants access to the '''Unexplored Land''', and it also allows players to make their own food.
**'''Recycle Shop''' allows players to exchange excess items for other items. The more items exchanged, the better the items available will be. Players may also get Prize Tickets to obtain items.
*The player's team recruits can now be found in Spinda's Cafe
* There is a new location called the '''Secret Bazaar''' which is found randomly in dungeons. It is run by a {{p|Kirlia}}. The bazaar has several stalls found inside.
**Mime Jr.'s stall restores the player's health and also feeds them.
**Swalot's ''Grab Bag Shop'' gives players Grab Bags. They may hold useful items inside them.
**Lickilicky's will help players clean items in their inventory.
**Shedinja's gives players a chance to escape the dungeon sooner.
*Players can find a statue of {{p|Arceus}} in a new dungeon called '''Destiny's Tower'''. The story here involves a new item called the '''Time-Space Orb'''.
*Players only lose half of their money when defeated in a dungeon, instead of all of it.
*Using DS Download Play, the player can send their friends a demo of the game.

===Special episodes===
During the course of the game, players can engage in various scenarios that expand upon the story of some of the different characters.

*''Bidoof's Wish'': The first episode features the past of the {{p|Bidoof}} in the [[Wigglytuff Guild]] just after it entered the guild. It goes to the '''Star Cave''' to have its wish granted by a {{p|Jirachi}}.
*''Igglybuff the Prodigy'': The second episode features {{OBP|Wigglytuff|Mystery Dungeon 2 character}} as an {{p|Igglybuff}}. It explores his past and explains how he became an explorer.
*''Today's Scream'': The third episode features the {{p|Sunflora}} in the guild. It was given a mission to seek out a {{p|Haunter}} but it was apparently unprepared for what it as about to face.
*''Charm's Arrival'': The fourth episode featured Team Charm and their past. Team AWD can also be found here.
*''In the Future of Darkness'': The fifth episode is set in the dark future. {{OBP|Grovyle|Mystery Dungeon 2 character}} and {{OBP|Dusknoir|Mystery Dungeon 2 character}} work together when [[Primal Dialga]] tries to get rid of them.
*The sixth mission features {{p|Shaymin}}. After completing the game and heading to Spinda's Cafe, players will be taken to Shaymin's Village where they will meet '''Team Frontier''', a team made of a {{p|Breloom}}, {{p|Machoke}} and {{p|Mawile}} and encounter Team Razor Wind. A Shaymin will take the player's team to the '''Sky's Summit''' where they will find the '''Sky's Present'''. The dungeon works similarly to [[Mt. Battle]] from [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]]. Every 10 floors are separated by base camps and can be revisited at any time. After reaching the top on the first visit players will battle some {{p|Grimer}} and {{p|Muk}}. On the second visit, {{p|Shaymin}} can be recruited.

==Synopsis==
===Intro===

====The History of the Time Gear====

In the world of Pokémon, there exists a rare and precious item known as the time gear. It is protected by the legendary Temporal Pokémon Dialga, along with Uxie, Azelf and Mesprit. Then one day, time started to behave strangely, starting from a dungeon and sperading everywhere, driving the Pokémon beserk.

====The Wigglytuff Guild====
Pokémon formed exploration teams, who help Pokémon find lost possessions and occasionally explore dungeons and recover treasures deep within them. While they do this, the flow of time brings forth disaster, throwing the Pokémon World into a state of crisis.

===The Story===

Grovyle, Chimchar and Piplup find a glowing inscription similar to that on Chimchar's Relic Fragment. Lapras appears, as sent by the Wigglytuff Guild to bring them to the Hidden Land. They ride on Lapras' back as a flock of Pelipper circles overhead. Meanwhile, back at the guild, the Guild members talk about Team Poképals, and wonder how they are doing. Corphish butts in, saying they have found the Hidden Land and how the Relic Fragment fell into Chimchar's possession. Sunflora points out that the Relic Fragment can bring them to the Temporal Tower, and to Dialga. The Guild Master states that Chimchar and Piplup, for that reason, have been chosen by the Fragment. Bidoof comments on how cool that sounds, and Loudred points out that as they speak, Team Poképals are riding on Lapras' back to the Hidden Land. However, the Guild Master has fallen asleep with his eyes open.

Meanwhile, Grovyle tells Piplup and Chimchar that Temporal Tower has started to collapse, and that when he took the fragment from Treeshroud Forest, time stopped there. He says that they need to fight on to stop the tower from collapsing, but Dialga had already turned into Primal Dialga. Both Piplup and Chimchar are shocked, and Chimchar says that if that's true, they'll need to go to the Tower and place the Gears onto the mouthpiece to restore time. Grovyle says that Dialga will try to stop them by fighting them, and they'll need to defeat Dialga. Both Piplup and Chimchar are stunned. Piplup tells Lapras to go faster, when Lapras spots the passage to the Hidden Land. Lapras speeds up, then suddenly starts to fly. However, Grovyle states they're simply in the Sea of Time. Lapras states that the Hidden Land is just ahead of the Sea of Time as they enter the Hidden Land.

They spot the Hidden Land, and Piplup recalls how he met Chimchar, washed up on a beach after being transformed from a human into a Pokémon and how they registered as an exploration Team in the Wigglytuff Guild, and what they went through together. Piplup becomes philosophical, saying that whether its about the fututre or him beng a human, he still doesn't remember anything, and it doesn't matter if he's a human or a Pokémon, he came with Chimchar to the Hidden Land, and they have come here to save the world for everyone. Grovyle spots the Temporal tower, and Lapras explains they need to ride the Rainbow Stoneship to the Temporal Tower. They arrive at the Old Ruins, and notice the pattern at the top of the pyramid is the same as the one on the Relic Fragment. They spot the Temporal Tower and a place where there is some writing, and Grovyle says it's ancient writing. Grovyle understands it, and says he did lots of research with Piplup in the future. Piplup doesn't remember any of this. Grovyle translates the writing, and it seems that the Old Ruins are the Rainbow Stoneship. Meanwhile a strange distortion is happening at the base of the Pyramid.

Grovyle walks over to the center of the pattern, and brushes away a patch of dirt, revealing a hole; a perfect fit for the Relic Fragment. he tells Chimchar to place the fragment in so they can ride the Stoneship to the Tower. Just as he places it in though, a Dark Pulse hits him and sends the Fragment flying. A Sableye grabs it and more appear from the distortion at the base of the Pyramid. They surround Team Poképals, and Chimchar yells to give the Fragment back. They are disturbed by laughing as Dusknoir appears. The Sableye gives the Fragment to him, congratulating the Sableye, saying that he was the one that crafted it in the future. Grovyle demands that he tell them why he's here. He says that with Dialga's help, he came from the future to settle things once and for all. He leaves, telling the Sableye to take care of them. They leap into action as Dusknoir leaves.

A dark cloud appears over the Guild as Corphish and Sunflora prepare to use {{m|BubbleBeam}} and {{m|Petal Dance}} respectively. However, Wigglytuff stops them, saying that even his {{m|Hyper Voice}} won't stop it. He reassures them that Team Poképals can solve this, even if time stops, and to have faith in them, they join hands as time freezes.

Meanwhile, Team Poképals fend off the Sableye's attacks. Chimchar using {{m|Flamethrower}}, Piplup using {{m|Hydro Pump}} and Grovyle using {{m|Bullet Seed}} seems to put them out of action, but they get back up. Meanwhile, Dusknoir retreats back to the future with the Relic Fragment. The three combine their {{m|Whirlpool}}, {{m|Fire Spin}}, and {{m|Energy Ball}} into one and knock the Sableye out. Dusknoir has reached the portal, but Grovyle holds him back by grabbing his tail. Dusknoir is shocked that they took out all the Sableye, and acknowledges them for their strength. He uses {{m|Rapid Spin}} to throw them off, then he proceeds to battle them, hitting them with a {{m|Dark Pulse}}. Grovyle tells them there must be some way to defeat him. Piplup says that if they give up, all of their friends will be frozen in time forever. Piplup suggests doing the same thing as they did against the Sableye, but Dusknoir charges {{m|Shadow Ball}}. Grovyle says that their attacks won't do much against that type of energy, but they try it anyway. Much to everyone's surprise, the combination of Whirlpool, Energy Ball and Fire Spin push the Shadow Ball back and defeat Dusknoir. The Sableye panic and flee. Chimchar grabs the Relic Fragment and rushes up the Pyramid.

Dusknoir stops Grovyle and Piplup. He tells the that if they start the flow of Time again all the Pokémon of the future will disappear, along with their future selves. Grovyle tells Piplup not to listen to him. But when Piplup asks Grovyle if it's true, Grovyle answers yes, but says that if they do that, all the Pokémon in the present will live in peace, and that's why they came here in the first place. Grovyle continues, saying that when he first came, he saw the sun rise. He says it was beautiful, seeing time flowing. He says that if they don't start time flowing again, then there is no hope for this world, and if it means preventing the Dark World enveloping this one again, he's prepared to disappear, and it's their destiny to save this world, and he promised to do so in the future. Piplup doesn't know if he did promise this, but decides to go anyway, to protect this world, and that he will be remembered with his defeat of Dialga and restoring time. Dusknoir discreetly starts to get up. Grovyle tells Piplup that there is also a possibility that they'll disappear from this world as well, but they'll disappear anyway. Chimchar shouts down to hurry up. Grovyle reminds Piplup that Chimchar doesn't know, and Chimchar would be devastated should he leave his side. Chimchar decides to make preparations without them when Dusknoir attacks with Dark Pulse. He grabs the Relic Fragment as Piplup and Grovyle arrive. Piplup grabs the fragment as Dusknoir attacks them. Grovyle takes the hit for them and restrains Dusknoir. He figures that since Dusknoir won't leave, he'll just have to take Dusknoir back to the future with him. He tells the others that he can't come back again, and they'll have to take on Dialga without him.

He tosses the Time Gears to Piplup, telling him he was happy to have met him. Then he jumps into the portal with tears in his eyes. Chimchar resolves to make the future a better place for Grovyle, Piplup remembers Chimchar doesn't know about how Grovyle will disappear if they start the flow of time again. Chimchar says he's sorry to Piplup, and that Grovyle's parting is heartbreaking, but Piplup can't break it to Chimchar that he'll feel the most pain when Piplup disappears, and knows this will be the last adventure they'll be together on. Chimchar decides to go and defeat Dialga so Grovyle's sacrifice won't be in vain. With a renewed vigor, Piplup gives Chimchar the fragment and Chimchar gives Piplup the bag containing the Gears. Piplup drops the last one in. Chimchar places the fragment into the hole, and the Stoneship begins to rise. True to its name, the Rainbow Stoneship flies toward the Temporal Tower, leaving a trail of rainbows. Piplup asks if Chimchar is ready. Chimchar says he is, and Piplup yells out to Dialga to wait for them.

Meanwhile, a dark shadow tops the Temporal Tower. Primal Dialga raises its head and roars to the sky.

Animated series move errors

2009-05-16T15:53:32Z

Utube1226: Unrelated to the anime.

In the [[Pokémon anime]], there will often come up a Pokémon that knows a move it cannot learn legally in any of the {{pkmn|games}}. It is unknown whether these are actual mistakes, a writing policy of not having to stick to the games too closely, or merely the Pokémon using an attribute that shares the name of a move in the games.

It should also be noted that occasionally [[Nintendo]] will make available Pokémon that can be transferred onto the games with a move that is not normally included in that Pokémon's moveset (a prime example being [[Pokémon Box Ruby & Sapphire]], which gave away four separate Pokémon with moves that were not normally available to that specific Pokémon).

==Less blatant examples==

* During {{AP|Caterpie}}'s battle with {{AP|Pidgeotto}} in ''[[EP003|Ash Catches a Pokémon!]]'', {{Ash}} tells Caterpie to use {{m|Counter}}; however, Caterpie cannot learn Counter, yet this doesn't stop it from attempting (and failing) to use it anyway.
* In ''[[EP037|Ditto's Mysterious Mansion]]'', [[Duplica]] tells her {{tp|Duplica|Ditto}} to use {{m|Constrict}} on [[Ash's Bulbasaur]] after {{m|Transform}}ing into said Bulbasaur. {{p|Bulbasaur}} cannot learn Constrict by any means. However, Ditto obeyed, implying that Ash's Bulbasaur may know Constrict.
* In ''[[EP050|Who Gets to Keep Togepi?]]'', [[Misty]] gets stuck with {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} in her battle with Ash. Ash doesn't battle seriously and has {{AP|Bulbasaur}} simply lick Psyduck's head and tickle it with its vines. This is not to be confused with the actual moves {{m|Lick}} and {{m|Tickle}}, the latter of which was later introduced in [[Generation III]]. Bulbasaur still cannot learn Lick or Tickle. It is worth noting, however, that Ash's specific words were "Use Tickle!".
* In ''[[EP104|Bound for Trouble]]'', {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TR|Meowth}} fight against the giant {{p|Rhydon}}. When Meowth jumps on Rhydon's back, he states that he should try a {{m|Tickle}} attack, and then acts like he would. However, Meowth cannot learn Tickle in any generation yet, and as mentioned with Bulbasaur, Tickle was not introduced until Generation III.
* In ''[[EP271|Playing with Fire!]]'', a {{p|Steelix}} uses {{m|Wrap}}. Steelix cannot learn Wrap, but it can learn {{m|Bind}} (a slightly less accurate version of Wrap with the same effect).
* In ''[[AG016|Winner By a Nosepass!]]'', [[Roxanne]] commands her {{p|Nosepass}} to use {{m|Hyper Beam}} which it cannot in the game. However, these errors were picked up on in the dub, and the references to Hyper Beam were replaced with {{m|Thunder Wave}} and {{m|Zap Cannon}} (which can be learned by Nosepass).
* In ''[[AG170|Second Time's the Charm]]'', {{FB|Salon Maiden|Anabel}}'s {{p|Espeon}} uses {{m|Zap Cannon}}, which, though impossible to have in [[Generation III]] or {{gen|IV}}, was available to teach to Espeon by [[TM07]] in [[Generation II]].
* In ''[[DP028|Drifloon on the Wind!]]'', some {{p|Drifloon}} were used to fly around the area. However, they did not use the actual move {{m|Fly}} (which is just as well, as they are unable to learn said move). The Pokédex specifically states that a Drifloon can't carry the weight of children - however, three are used at any given time. It is also, however, possible for Drifloon to carry players across short distances in {{g|Ranger: Shadows of Almia}}.
* A group of {{p|Combee}} in ''[[DP032|An Angry Combee-nation!]]'' appear to be using {{m|Psybeam}}; however, this is actually the anime representation of {{p|Vespiquen}}'s {{m|Attack Order}}.
* In ''[[DP060|Journey to the Unown!]]'', the fact that {{p|Bronzor}} cannot learn {{m|Teleport}} was also picked up by the producers of the dub, and the appearance of it using Teleport was cut from the episode.
* ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! (Part 1)]]'' and ''[[DP072|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! (Part 2)]]'' feature a {{p|Riolu}} that can use {{m|Aura Sphere}}. This is due to its unique ability to manipulate aura prior to evolution. This episode is directly based on a mission from {{g|Ranger: Shadows of Almia}} featuring a similar Riolu. This is the only way a Riolu that knows Aura Sphere is available in the games.

'''Paul's Torterra''' (Japanese: '''シンジのドダイトス''' ''Shinji's Dodaitose'') is a Pokémon owned by [[Paul]]. It is his strongest Pokémon and his {{pkmn2|starter}} as well. It is voiced by ''[[Unshō Ishizuka]]'' in Japanese and [[Jimmy Zoppi|Billy Beach]] in English.

Torterra made its first appearance in ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training!]]'' where it was used in a battle against [[Cynthia]]'s {{TP|Cynthia|Garchomp}}. Despite having many powerful attacks such as {{m|Giga Drain}} and {{m|Frenzy Plant}}, it was defeated easily.

It also appeared in ''[[DP052|Smells Like Team Spirit!]]'' where it was used in the semi-finals of the [[Hearthome City Tag Battle Competition]]. It was paired off with {{AP|Ash's Staravia|Staraptor}} and was up against [[Brock's Croagunk]] and [[Holly]]'s {{p|Farfetch'd}}. It defeated both its opponents single-handedly.

Torterra appeared again in ''[[DP100|Aiding the Enemy!]]'' where it saw the battle between [[Ash's Turtwig]] and [[Paul's Honchkrow]]. It also witnessed the evolution of {{p|Turtwig}} and its loss of speed. While Grotle was training to become faster, Torterra showed it that a Pokémon could still be powerful by coping with its lack of speed with strong defense. To prove this, it battled against [[Ash's Gliscor]] in a practice match.

==Moves used==
* {{m|Frenzy Plant}}
* {{m|Giga Drain}}
* {{m|Hyper Beam}}
* {{m|Leaf Storm}}
{{left clear}}
==Trivia==
* This is the second time one of Ash's rivals have had an evolved form of a starter Pokémon that Ash owns. The first is {{Gary}} who owned {{TP|Gary|a Blastoise|Blastoise}}. It could also be noted that both Pokémon were the rival's starter Pokémon and they are both turtle-like Pokémon. Likewise, neither was seen until after it had reached its final form.
* Unlike nearly all his other Pokémon, Paul has never sternly spoken to Torterra, even when it lost or did something that he didn't approve of. This may mean that despite his dislike of bonding with his Pokémon, Paul may have some sort of bond to Torterra, being his first Pokémon.

== Staravia ==

So, we "know" staravia will PROBABLY be in this episode, and if what I and many others assume, will evolve into Staraptor to win the contest like Swellow did, why is this listed? Although we ASSUME he will be used, for all we know, Ash will ask Oak to send him Swellow to defend it's title. Shouldn't Staravia be removed into the preview that shows him as being in the episode airs? [[User:Myzou|Myzou]] 01:54, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
:...what? Staravia's listed because it ''appears'', regardless of evolving or not. I'm not sure what "removed into the preview" is supposed to mean... '''~ overgrown'''[[User:Sol|s]][[User_talk:Sol|o]][[Special:Contributions/Sol|l]] 01:57, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
**Speaking of removals, I had to remove Jessie, James, and Meowth from the character lists due to the fact that DP117's summary subtly implied at their possibly disbanding and leaving the show. You guys can add it back in AFTER DP117 airs (IF they end up staying on the main cast, of course.) [[User:Weedle Mchairybug|Weedle Mchairybug]] 03:28, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

They won't leave, that is obvious. --[[User:HoennMaster|Hoenn]][[User talk:HoennMaster|Master]] 03:33, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

:::Even still, we cannot risk having them on there. For all we know, DP117 may very well end up doing the unthinkable and have them leave the show. I mean, when the episode title thread on this episode first popped up, because of a certain line in the Summary, they ended up speculating that JJM WILL leave the main cast/Disband. It's no different than the Turtwig/Grotle incident that we ended up having to protect Grotle's page until DP100 aired. [[User:Weedle Mchairybug|Weedle Mchairybug]] 03:37, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

::::You've got to be kidding me... They're not breaking up... They've done this many times before where Team Rocket gets in a fight and then they end up back together by the end of the episode. Such as ''[[AG176|The Ole' Berate and Switch]]''. I highly doubt that after 12 years they are suddenly going to disappear. That's just stupid... Use common sense please. They stay visible. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 05:42, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

:::::And we can always change it later if it turns out to be true. Of course, it's far more likely that [[Dawn's Piplup|that damn penguin that's long overdue for an evolution]] will have evolved two episodes earlier and not appear in this episode or the one preceding...--[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 06:18, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
::::::Biding their time to Movie 12. Galactic's gonna be in this one, trust me. Anyway, I do agree, TR's not breaking up permanently, I'm 100% certain on that. And even then, why would they leave the show ''in the middle of the region'' merely ''months'' before the most important of the movies? '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 06:27, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
:::::::By that logic, we should have used "common sense" in regards to Turtwig instead of, you know, going into protection mode over it when DP100 was being unveiled. And another thing, it wasn't just their getting into a "Fight", it's also the fact that one of their old comerades (NOT JJM, BC, or even Domino) was shown to have retired from TR and doing an honest living, and the summary in itself hinting at it. We still cannot say that JJM are in this episode. We don't list Wobbuffet as being in the episode despite it being very likely to appear anyways due to certain randomness of it's appearances, so why should this be any different? [[User:Weedle Mchairybug|Weedle Mchairybug]] 11:59, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Well, Turtwig's page was unprotected after the episode actually aired. Like the ''[[AG176|The Ole' Berate and Switch]]'', the Japanese title also hints TR's breakup: ''Team Rocket Dissolution!? Respective Roads!''. So why not "wait 'til the episode airs?" '''►[[User:Kevzo8|Ҝə]][[Special:Contributions/Kevzo8|υz]][[User_talk:Kevzo8|ø8]]''' 12:23, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

:::::::::See in most summaries it says that Ash will use Starvia(although I wish Swellow returns) and seeing that all of Ash's '''battling Flying Pokémons''' evolve before the Sixth or seventh Gym, we can be sure we will soon have Starpator. Moreover Starpator has a Type disadvantage over Candice's Ice types. Swellow evolved before Winnoa and Noctowl was caught before Morty. --[[User:Prongs|Prongs]] 06:20, 3 March 2009 (UTC)PRONGS

::::::::::Staravia Evolves in the Episode, but I will not put that on the Acutal Artical (Better Safe than Sorry, Right?). ([[User:Kmanecke|Kmanecke]] 17:29, 5 March 2009 (UTC))
:I think the phrase you are looking for is '''Wait 'til it airs''' [[User:The Dark Fiddler|The Dark Fiddler]] - [[User talk:The Dark Fiddler|10% Satisfaction Guaranteed!]] 17:47, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
::The only thing that sucks about the protection now, is the rumors have been confirmed in the preview for DP118 that aired after DP117. Staravia takes a hit from Honchcrow (Wing Attack/Steel Wing), falls to the ground, and evolves when getting up. :P Sadly, we still have to wait til it airs I believe, even though it was specifically shown to be evolving, it wasn't simply a Staraptor XD EDIT: (For those who didnt see it, screencaps courtesy of a user at PC: [http://i41.tinypic.com/n6fcz9.png] [[User:Myzou|Myzou]] 07:32, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
:::Regardless of confirmation in an episode '''preview'''. We do not add information regarding evolutions '''until the actual episode airs'''. {{AP|Staravia}} is ''still a Staravia'' in the series, and won't be a {{p|Staraptor}} ''for a week''. When that week is up, then everything regarding the status of that Pokémon will be up to date, but '''''not a moment before the scene airs in the actual episode'''''. Now everyone, enough talk 'bout it, kay? - [[User:Kogoro|'''<sc>Kogoro</sc>''']] '''|''' [[User talk:Kogoro|'''<sc>Talk to me</sc>''']] - 08:05, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

*Well, Staravia's evolution is in the preview, so it is confirmed. (Paul's Honchkrow just loves evolving Ash's Pokemon), but I suppose it might be best to wait, so details can be told. - ''unsigned comment from {{u|Torngentleman2 }} ([[User talk:Torngentleman2 |talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Torngentleman2 |contribs]]) ''
:IT IS '''''NOT''''' shown evolving in the preview!!! --'''[[User:Theryguy512|Theryguy]][[User Talk:Theryguy512|512]]''' 13:59, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
::Read that HUGE ORANGE MESSAGE at the top of the page. [[User:The Dark Fiddler|The Dark Fiddler]] - [[User talk:The Dark Fiddler|Is teh Pedia laggin 4 u 2?]] 14:04, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

Wait,I know this is big .5 Words. TAKE THIS TO THE FORUMS ! This will be less headaching.[[User:LucarioWolf|The Aura Wolf !!!!]] 22:30, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

As for someone saying TR breaks up, they break up but THEN get back together. [[user:Simpsonsdude13| SD13 Simpsondude13>''']][[user talk:Simpsonsdude13|SD13 Talk]] 17:26, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

==Trivia==
Something I would wanna note... If Satoshi actually won the PokeRinger Contest, this actually marks the first time he ever defeated Shinji... (I didn't watch the episode, just looked at the major points, but to the looks of it, I think Satoshi defeated him AND won.) [[user:utube1226|utube1226]] 14:42, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

List of Pokémon with gender differences

2008-12-14T10:23:49Z

Utube1226: /* Sinnoh evolution families */

Differences between the genders of many species are apparent, not only in the real world, where animals like [[wp:cardinal (bird)|cardinal]]s have a brightly-colored male and a dull-colored female, but also in the [[Pokémon world]], where some species of Pokémon have a noticeable difference between the male and female of the species beginning in [[Generation IV]].

'''Rhydon''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サイドン''' ''Sidon'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ground|Rock}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Rhyhorn}} starting at [[level]] 42, and evolves into {{p|Rhyperior}} by [[trade]] with [[Protector]].

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Rhydon is a large, gray dinosaur-like Pokémon. It has a long tail with skinny, black stripes. Rhydon has a cream-colored stomach and a ridged back. Rhydon has two horns on its head, with the one on the nose being a metal drill.
====Gender differences====
The female's drill-horn is smaller than the male's.

===Special abilities===
Rhydon's drill-horn is capable of crushing uncut diamonds and it can knock down a building with one strike of its tail. Rhydon's rocky hide is strong enough to withstand direct cannonball fire.

===Behavior===
Rhydon is apparently much smarter than its {{p2|Rhyhorn|pre-evolution}}, evidenced by its ability to stand on its hind-legs.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Roughterrain.gif|left|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Rough-terrain Pokémon|Rough-terrain Pokémon]]]]
Rhydon are mainly found in cavernous areas.

===Diet===

==In the anime==
[[Image:RiddleMeThis.gif|thumb|left|[[Blaine]] and his Rhydon.]]
A mechanical Rhydon appeared in ''[[EP017|Island of the Giant Pokémon]]'' as a part of {{g|Land}}.

Rhydon's true debut episode was ''[[EP042|Showdown at Dark City]]'', under the ownership of one of the trainers at [[Kas Gym]].

Rhydon's first major role was in ''[[EP058|Riddle Me This]]'', being one of [[Blaine]]'s Pokémon. Blaine used a Rhydon against {{Ash}} during the first battle for Ash's {{Badge|Volcano}}. While normally tough against electric attacks, Rhydon was defeated when [[Ash's Pikachu]] struck Rhydon's horn, which acted like a lightning rod.
[[Image:Rhydon anime.jpg|thumb|right|200px|A construction worker's Rhydon from ''[[DP057|Bibarel Gnaws Best!]]'', just released from its Poké Ball.]]

[[Giovanni]] owns a Rhydon that he loaned to [[Jessie]] and [[James]] in ''[[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]]''.

A trainer named [[Assunta]] used one to battle [[Ritchie]] in ''[[EP080|Friends to the End]]''

A Rhydon belonging to [[Rudy]] made a cameo appearance in ''[[EP103|Misty Meets Her Match]]''.

[[Giant Pokémon|Giant]] Rhydon were seen on [[Fairchild Island]] in ''[[EP104|Bound For Trouble]]''.

''[[EP204|Right on, Rhydon]]'' featured a Rhydon that knew {{m|Surf}}.

Rhydon also made a cameo appearance in ''[[AG135|Numero Uno Articuno]]'' as one of [[Factory Head Noland|Noland]]'s Pokémon.

[[Brock]]'s dad, {{an|Flint}}, has a Rhydon, but was just mentioned. Flint mostly used his Rhydon for helping him decorate the [[Pewter Gym]]'s battlefield with rocks from mountaintops.

[[Nurse Joy]] had a Rhydon to help look for {{p|Kabuto}} fossils.

[[Ash's Pikachu]] and [[Paul's Chimchar]] battled against a Rhydon and a {{p|Magmar}} in the [[Hearthome City]] Tag-Battle Tournament in ''[[DP050|Tag! We're It...!]]''.

In ''[[DP057|Bibarel Gnaws Best!]]'', the Head Engineer owned a Rhydon.
 

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Special manga===
Rhydon debuts in the {{special|Red, Green & Blue chapter}} in its own round, ''[[PS007|Raging Rhydon]]'', as a Koga's Pokémon that is forced to evolve by its trainer with a mysterious injection, being the first evolution showed in the manga.

Rhydon is later seen as one of [[Giovanni]]'s Pokémon.

In {{PSV|9}}, {{Special|Green}} captures a Rhydon outside the [[Viridian Gym]]. He uses it to defeat [[Chuck]] in {{PSV|13}}, as well as [[Oca]] in {{PSV|23}}. Near the end of the FireRed and LeafGreen saga, Green remarks on a footnote Giovanni included in his handbook: Rhydon possibly possessed a stronger form. This is a reference to Rhydon's new evolution, {{p|Rhyperior}}.

Earlier in the same volume, {{Special|Gold}} encounters a wild Rhydon during his race with [[Whitney]]. The Rhydon in question was hunting down a {{p|Sudowoodo}} hiding from it, and kidnapped Whitney when she interfered with her {{p|Miltank}}. Gold tells Sudowoodo to stand up for itself and, with assistance from his billiard cue, helps Sudowoodo defeat the Rhydon.

==Trivia==
* [[Ash's Pikachu]] fought [[Blaine]]'s Rhydon in the anime and defeated it, despite it being a {{type2|Ground}} immune to {{t|Electric}} attacks. Rhydon's horn also serves as a lightning rod which negates electric attacks as of the rules for the Pokémon effect. Since then, that battle has been brought up frequently in comparisons between the games and anime and has spawned the popular Pokémon internet meme, "Pikachu! Aim for the horn!". Oddly, {{a|Lightningrod}} is one of the abilities it can have.
* It is one of the only {{type2|Rock}} and {{type2|Ground}} Pokémon that can learn {{M|Surf}}.
* Because of Rhydon's [[index number]] in Generation I, it can also "evolve" from any non-hybrid [[Glitch Pokémon]].
* A figure very similar to Rhydon is featured on all of the statues in the entry areas of the gyms.
* Its [[Generation I]] sprites show it having a full length of spines along its back. This was changed to only having three spikes in [[Generation II]].
* Rhydon and {{p|Rhyperior}} share the same [[species]] name with {{p|Nidoqueen}} and {{p|Nidoking}}. They are all known as Drill Pokémon.
* While Rhydon's {{2v2|Gold|Silver}} shiny sprite is lighter than the normal sprite, its [[Pokémon Crystal|Crystal]] normal sprite shows ''lighter'' than its shiny sprite.

===Origin===
It appears to draw much of its inspiration from a rhinoceros and some aspects of various dinosaurs, such as the triceratops.It also may have been inspired by Anguirus, considering the nose horn and the spikes on their back.
====Name origin====
Rhydon's name may be a reference to {{wp|rhinoceros}}. The ''don'' may have been intended to mean "lord." However, it is also used as a suffix in various {{wp|dinosaur}} names, so it could be an reference to those prehistoric creatures as well. Its Japanese name is a combination of 犀 ''sai'', rhinoceros, and the aforementioned ''don''.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Rizeros
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Rhinoferos - From ''rhinocéros'' (rhinoceros) and ''féroce'' (ferocious).
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 코뿌리 ''Koppuri'' - Literally ''nose horn''.
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese]]: 鐵甲暴龍

{{ship}}
[[Image:043.jpg|thumb|215px|Aoi blushing]]
'''MorpheusShipping''' is the belief of a romantic relationship between {{Ash}} and [[Aoi]]. This shipping is one-sided canon on Aoi's part, since she developed a crush on Ash at the end of the [[summer school]] arc; meanwhile, Ash remains oblivious of her feelings. The name Morpheus comes from [[wp:Morpheus (mythology)|Morpheus]], the Greek god of dreams, to represent their mutual feelings for their lessons (by sleeping through them).

==Hints==
===Aoi's hints===
*She copied Ash's training strategy with her rented {{p|Monferno}}.
*Aoi is one of the few people to pose with Ash in his "I got a [insert item/badge/Pokémon]!" tradition.
*Aoi seems embarrassed and blushing a lot looking at Ash sometimes in [[DP091]], showing she was really touched by his gestures.
*In the same episode she looked sad when Ash said that he saved her because they are friends, showing she probably expected a "more than a friend" answer.
*Aoi retains these feelings and blushes when Ash compliments her in [[DP098]].

===Ash's hints===
*Ash risked his life to save Aoi from the ghost girl in [[DP090]]. Aoi even told him at one point to save himself, but he refused and even said he'd never drop her.
*Ash saved her again from falling down a cliff in [[DP091]].
*Ash was looking forward to meeting Aoi again in [[DP098]].
*Ash defended Aoi's actions to her parents is the same episode.

===General hints===
*They developed a fierce rivalry, but ended it on a note of friendship.
*Aoi and Ash have exchanged high-fives and fist bumps, something Ash has rarely done with anyone.
*When split into teams, Ash and Aoi always partner up. They also get into a lot of trouble together. Even when not partners, they tend to spend time together.
*Aoi's {{p|Shinx}} and Pikachu get along well.
*Both share many personality traits, such as a love of food and excellent battling skills.
*In some scenes, the two can be seen staring at each other, most notably the closing frame of [[DP088]].
*Ash is based off of Red from the games, while Aoi's name can mean blue or green.
*In [[DP098]], Aoi's parents knew about Ash as the boy which their daughter talked about many times. They even teased her and suggested that she can marry Ash and they could take care of the [[Daycare]] center in the future.

==Alternate Names==
MorpheusShipping has an alternate name that is used on forums:
*Natsushipping: As the shipping starts in summer, people have called it by this.

'''Ash's Staravia''' (Japanese: '''サトシのムクバード''' ''Satoshi's Mukubird'') is the first [[Pokémon]] that [[Ash Ketchum]] [[captured Pokémon|caught]] in the [[Sinnoh]] region. It is voiced by 古島清孝 ''[[Kiyotaka Furushima]]'' in Japanese and as a Starly by [[Michele Knotz]] in English, and then by [[Sarah Natochenny]] as a Staravia.

==History==
[[Image:Ash Starly.jpg|As a Starly|200px|thumb|left]]
Ash caught it as a {{p|Starly}} in ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation]]'' while searching for {{AP|Pikachu}}, who was missing due to the antics of [[Team Rocket]]. {{TP|Dawn|Aipom|Ambipom}} was swinging through the trees and accidentally bumped into Starly, so the two Pokémon battled. Weakened by Aipom, Starly was captured and immediately used in the search for Pikachu.

In ''[[DP003|When Pokémon Worlds Collide]]'', Starly battled another Starly belonging to [[Paul]] and lost.

In ''[[DP013|A Staravia is Born]]'', Starly evolved into a {{p|Staravia}} during a battle with [[Team Rocket]]. Evolving has allowed it to grow much stronger and become very useful in searches.

Staravia was the only of Ash's Pokémon who didn't participate in Ash's first Sinnoh [[Gym]] battle, however, Staravia helped out in Ash's second Sinnoh Gym battle, defeating [[Gardenia]]'s {{p|Cherubi}}. After seeing [[Reggie]]'s {{p|Staraptor}} use the powerful {{m|Brave Bird}} attack, Ash was inspired to teach it to Staravia. In the third Sinnoh Gym Battle, Staravia defeated [[Maylene]]'s {{p|Machoke}} and {{p|Meditite}}, as well as successfully mastering Brave Bird.

Unlike {{AP|Pidgeot}} or {{AP|Noctowl}}, Staravia is closer in use to {{AP|Swellow}} in that, while Pidgeot was mainly used for scouting purposes, Staravia is often used in battles and is one of Ash's most reliable team members.

[[Image:Staravia AerialAce.jpg|200px|Using {{m|Wing Attack}} against [[Gardenia's Turtwig]]|thumb|right]]

* {{m|Wing Attack}}
* {{m|Quick Attack}}
* {{m|Aerial Ace}}
* {{m|Whirlwind}}
* {{m|Gust}}{{tt|*|Dub only}}
* {{m|Brave Bird}}

==Trivia==
*Despite the fact Ash's Staravia and other members of his evolution family know {{m|Gust}}, it is impossible for {{p|Starly}}, {{p|Staravia}}, or {{p|Staraptor}} to learn it in the games. This error was also present in the Japanese version. The dub changed it to {{m|Whirlwind}} in Starly's initial appearance, but left it as Gust until ''[[DP038|One Big Happiny Family]]'', when it was dubbed as Whirlwind again, and has been since.
*For ''[[DP015|Shapes of Things to Come]]'', [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Ash's Staravia. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about it: ムックルが　ムクムクしんか　ムクバード ''{{tt|Mukkuru|Starly}} mukumuku-evolved; {{tt|Mukubird|Staravia}}''
*Judging by the pattern on Staravia's head, it can be assumed that this Pokémon is male. However, his gender has not been officially confirmed, as no other Staravia have been seen to compare it to.
*It is proven a male in [[DP103]]. James distracted Staravia with a fake female Staravia.
*Staravia was the 40th Pokémon species Ash has owned, counting {{AP|Larvitar}}, {{AP|Haunter}}, and {{AP|Raticate}}.
*Staravia is the only Pokémon Ash has on hand that he caught in a valid location; {{AP|Chimchar}} and {{AP|Turtwig}} are unavailable in normal gameplay unless chosen as a starter, Ash didn't even capture {{AP|Buizel}}, and {{AP|Gligar}} doesn't appear on the route Ash captured it unless the [[dongle method]] is used.

In the third Sinnoh Gym Battle, Staravia defeated [[Maylene]]'s {{p|Machoke}} and {{p|Meditite}}, as well as successfully mastering Brave Bird.

Unlike {{AP|Pidgeot}} or {{AP|Noctowl}}, Staravia is closer in use to {{AP|Swellow}} in that, while Pidgeot was mainly used for scouting purposes, Staravia is often used in battles and is one of Ash's most reliable team members.

==Moves used==
* {{m|Wing Attack}}
* {{m|Quick Attack}}
* {{m|Aerial Ace}}
* {{m|Whirlwind}}
* {{m|Gust}}{{tt|*|Dub only}}
* {{m|Brave Bird}}

==Trivia==
*Despite the fact Ash's Staravia and other members of his evolution family know {{m|Gust}}, it is impossible for {{p|Starly}}, {{p|Staravia}}, or {{p|Staraptor}} to learn it in the games. This error was also present in the Japanese version. The dub changed it to {{m|Whirlwind}} in Starly's initial appearance, but left it as Gust until ''[[DP038|One Big Happiny Family]]'', when it was dubbed as Whirlwind again, and has been since.
*For ''[[DP015|Shapes of Things to Come]]'', [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Ash's Staravia. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about it: ムックルが　ムクムクしんか　ムクバード ''{{tt|Mukkuru|Starly}} mukumuku-evolved; {{tt|Mukubird|Staravia}}''
*Judging by the pattern on Staravia's head, it can be assumed that this Pokémon is male. However, his gender has not been officially confirmed, as no other Staravia have been seen to compare it to.
*Staravia was the 40th Pokémon species Ash has owned, counting {{AP|Larvitar}}, {{AP|Haunter}}, and {{AP|Raticate}}.
*Staravia is the only Pokémon Ash has on hand that he caught in a valid location; {{AP|Chimchar}} and {{AP|Turtwig}} are unavailable in normal gameplay unless chosen as a starter, Ash didn't even capture {{AP|Buizel}}, and {{AP|Gligar}} doesn't appear on the route Ash captured it unless the [[dongle method]] is used.

{{ship}}
[[Image:PikachuBuneary.jpg|thumb|Buneary and Pikachu]]
'''LagomorphShipping''' is the belief in a romantic relationship between [[Ash's Pikachu]] and [[Dawn's Buneary]]. This is canon on the side of Buneary, whose crush on Pikachu is a running feature in the series; Pikachu has yet to reciprocate.

==Hints==
===Buneary===
* In ''[[DP009|Setting the World on its Buneary]]'', Buneary had developed a crush after seeing Pikachu save a potato.
* She'll raise her fur and cover her face whenever she sees Pikachu.
* She once grabbed Pikachu and started dancing with it causing Pikachu to yell and Buneary to cry.
* When {{an|Dawn}} asked Buneary if she wants to come along with them [[Brock]] says "You can spend time with Pikachu" then {{Ash}} says "looks like she'll like that".
* In the episode ''[[DP017|Wild in the Streets!]]'' after Pikachu, [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]], and {{AP|Turtwig}} finished practicing, Buneary hopped over and started petting Pikachu.
* In the episode ''[[DP018|O'er The Rampardos We Watched]]'' after Pikachu beat [[Roark]]'s {{p|Onix}}, Buneary looked over at it with affection.
* In ''[[DP027|Settling A Not-So-Old Score]]'', the pair are seen together cheering for Dawn at the contest in Floaroma Town.
* In the episode ''[[DP033|All Dressed Up With Somewhere To Go!]]'', Pikachu's impersonations of Ash, Brock and Dawn's Pokémon (Buneary included), resulted in a look of utter adulation from Buneary.
* In ''[[DP039|Steamboat Willies!]]'', when Pikachu grabbed the ring that Piplup missed in a game of ring toss, it was able to rebound the ring on to the 100 points, after which Buneary happily showered it with adoration or as mentioned above, "goes gaga for it".
* In ''[[DP041|A Stand-Up Sit-Down!]]'', Ash and Dawn have a [[double battle]] in {{pkmn|contest}} style, with Pikachu and Aipom versus {{AP|Buizel}} and Buneary. However, Buneary's first instinct is to flirt with Pikachu, striking a pose and winking at it, until Dawn stated "This is an appeal battle, not a date"
* In [[DP046|''A Maze-ing Race'']], Buneary was walking away from {{TP|Brock|Happiny}} to try to go through the maze by herself. Pikachu ran up to her and grabbed her hand to try to get her to stop. This made Buneary really happy.
* In the beginning of ''[[DP055|Throwing the Track Switch]]'', Buneary was massaging Pikachu's stomach after it and Ash became bloated from over-eating.
* In ''[[DP076|A Full Course Tag Battle]]'', after the battle with [[Team Rocket]], Buneary went up to Pikachu and started flirting with it. The flirting was so obvious that {{an|May}} even pointed out that Buneary seems to like Pikachu.
*In ''[[DP053|Tears for Fears]]'', when all the group's Pokémon are asleep, Buneary is seen with her arm around Pikachu.
*In ''[[DP070|The Bells Are Singing!]]'', Pikachu's positive response to Buneary's new vest causes her to blush.
*In [[DP085]], when Dawn and Buneary won the [[Hearthome Collection]], Buneary hugged Pikachu.
* Almost every time Buneary sees Pikachu, she has hearts in her eyes.

===Pikachu===
* When it yelled at Buneary for grabbing and dancing with it she started to cry. It then attempted to comfort her.
* It gave itself up to [[Team Rocket]] after failing to save Buneary. It then helped her to escape after.
* In ''[[DP027|Settling a Not-So-Old Score!]]'', the pair are seen together cheering for Dawn at the contest in Floaroma Town.
* In the aforementioned ''[[DP076|A Full Course Tag Battle]]'', when Buneary came up to Pikachu to flirt with it, Pikachu began to blush. However this can be taken as a sign of embarrassment, because Pikachu looked uneasy and sheepish afterwards.

==Trivia==
*The name of this ship originates from {{wp|Lagomorpha}}, the order that rabbits and pikas, Buneary and Pikachu's real-world counterparts, belong to.
*In the games, {{p|Buneary}} and {{p|Pikachu}} are both in the {{egg|Ground}} [[egg group]], and therefore can [[breed]].
*Under the rules of [[egg moves]], the offspring of such a pairing would be {{p|Buneary}} that know {{m|Thunderbolt}} and {{m|Iron Tail}}, as these are moves {{p|Pikachu}} knows that {{p|Buneary}} can learn via [[TM]]. They would also know the moves {{m|Quick Attack}} and {{m|Agility}} if [[Dawn's Buneary]] knew them, though she has not yet demonstrated this knowledge.
*Some supporters of this shipping use it as a evidence of {{s|PearlShipping}} ({{Ash}} and {{an|Dawn}}), in a similar fashion to how people use {{s|VineShipping}} as evidence of {{s|AdvanceShipping}}; Professor Oak once stated that the feelings of a trainer are reflected by their Pokémon. As such, if two Pokémon fall in love the trainers will too. However, if Dawn has a crush on Ash, she is to date being a lot more subtle about it than Buneary is about her feelings for Pikachu. Some will also point out that Buneary had a crush on Pikachu before Dawn caught her.

(Japanese: '''グライガー！友情の翼！''' ''{{tt|Gliger|Gligar}}! Wings of Friendship!'') is the 85th episode of the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}, and the 551st episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It aired in Japan on July 3, 2008 as a part of a one-hour special along with [[DP084]].

Continuing to Hearthome City, Ash decides to train his Gligar. They run into Gary, who is studying mysterious Pokémon near Lake Valor. Gary gives Ash a Razor Fang that could make Gligar evolve. Ash is reluctant to allow his Pokémon to change, but Gligar is determined to become stronger...

==Synopsis==
The episode begins with Dawn placing one of Brock's classic stew pots onto a table, in the center surrounded by smaller plates with salad on them. Beside the table is Ash and Brock, who have just finished preparing the food for the Pokémon. Ash calls over to the group's Pokémon that are playing in a stretch of water nearby to come and get it, which they do in earnest. Brock seems happy at how well the group of Pokémon are getting along and how they seem to be enjoying the food. On ground level, Swinub starts to take too much of a liking to Piplup's food portion but is stopped by the no-nonsense penguin who pushes it back. Turtwig gets between the two bickering Pokémon and stops the fight before it could have started, while Ash and Dawn laugh at the squabbling duo. Ash then realizes that Gligar is nowhere to be found and gets up and starts to look around for the missing Pokémon. Ash calls out its name, and is replied instantly by an affectionate Gligar who drops down from the sky and lands straight on top of Ash pushing him to the ground. Ash wonders where Gligar went to, and Gligar starts to use X Scissor to show Ash its been training. Ash is impressed, and Brock wonders if maybe it's trying harder to get stronger after the defeat it was handed to by Paul's Gliscor. Dawn tells Brock to hush as he's hurting Gligar's feelings and Ash comforts the upset Pokémon by telling it that they'll do some training together soon.

After the group finish their meal, a practice battle between Gligar and Buizel is set up so Gligar can practice some of its moves. Gligar seems confident, before Buizel starts to look at it with an evil smirk. Gligar's confidence starts to waver, but Ash tells it that everything will be fine and that a battle like this is just what it needs. Gligar is satisfied by this, and Ash starts the battle off by telling Gligar to use X Scissor. Gligar tries hitting Buizel with the attack, but the otter proves too fast for it and keeps dodging every attack. Ash then tells Buizel to use Aqua Jet, which it does jumping into the air and spending towards Gligar with a high powered water attack. Gligar falls to the ground and starts crying, before jumping into Ash's hands and clinging to his head. Buizel continues its attack and smashes straight into Ash who is far from impressed. Ash asks Gligar what is wrong, but Dawn tells him that he's going about it the wrong way and kneels down to Gligar's level. She then starts comforting it, stroking and gives it a hug which makes Gligar blush and stop crying.

Brock suggests that Ash should maybe use a different Pokémon, and Ash calls out Turtwig to battle against Gligar. Ash tells Turtwig to use Energy Ball, which Gligar manages to dodge but only because it's trying to run away. Ash tells Gligar to use Steel Wing, which it does but falters when Turtwig stares at it. Gligar then spins around and starts chasing after Ash, who starts to run away. Gligar flies down, knocking over Ash again with its weight. Ash wonders what is wrong with Gligar and starts to scold the Pokémon who takes it a little too harshly and flies away sobbing. Watching all of this is Team Rocket who are hiding in the bushes. James thinks this is the perfect chance to steal Gligar, who will now be alone and defenseless. Meowth explains that they could capture Gligar and send it to the boss, who could use it to shield his eyes in the morning when the sun peaks in through the window. Jessie thinks this is a great idea, and the three celebrate at their latest plan.

Back with Ash, Dawn and Brock we find them calling out for the missing Gligar to no avail. Staravia then flies onto the scene, and Ash asks if the bird Pokémon has seen Gligar. Staravia nods, and the gang follow it to a forest clearing where they find Gligar along with a familiar face- Ash's old rival turned Pokémon Professor Gary Oak. The two greet each other, and Gary asks about Gligar which Ash tells him its his. Ash explains that they were in the middle of a battle when it ran off. Gary smirks playfully at Ash and suggests that maybe Ash isn't able to look after his Pokémon. Ash takes the bait and says that he and Gligar get along just fine. Ash then calls Gligar back to him, but Gligar recoils in fright. Ash grabs a hold of Gligar telling to stop being silly, but Gligar refuses to budge and continues to hide behind Gary. Brock comments that Gligar may not trust Ash anymore and Ash grits his teeth in frustration. Not soon after, the two begin a battle to try and train Gligar up. Ash starts the battle off by telling Gligar to Steel Wing, which is followed by Gary who tells Umbreon to use Shadow Ball. The attack misses Gligar, but the scared Pokémon recoils in fear and falls back down and lands on Ash. The group then start theorizing on what could be wrong with Gligar, and then the battle starts again. Taking in some of the conversation between the group, Gligar starts warming up to the battle by bouncing on its tail before jumping up to fly. However, once in the air Gligar becomes scared at how high it is and falls back down to the ground and lands on Ash.

At that, Gary says that he has something that may help Gligar, and pulls out a Razor Fang and hands it to Ash. Gligar tries to grab the claw from Ash, but Ash stops it, putting his hand out to stop the over-eager Pokémon. Suddenly, a large noise is heard from nearby and Team Rocket emerge from the trees in a Gliscor shaped balloon. The team then recite their usual motto, followed up by Wobbuffet who pops out of its Poké Ball as usual. Gary isn't impressed to see Team Rocket again who he regards as bumblers, which annoys the trio to no end. In retaliation to those words, they release the spike of the Gliscor balloon which shoots out and grabs onto Gligar and pulls it in. Ash jumps onto the tail and is pulled towards the balloon along with it much to Team Rocket's annoyance. Ash then calls out Staravia, which is followed by Jessie sending out Seviper to use Smog and Yanmega to use Silver Wind. Seviper appears out of its Poké Ball and releases a deep purple smoke which blinds Staravia, which is followed up by Yanmega which uses Silver Wind to send it plummeting down to the ground.

Soon after, we find Ash and Gligar trapped in a cage with Team Rocket standing nearby their balloon, celebrating their victory. Jessie plans to send for Team Rocket's Delibird to come pick up Gligar and take it straight to the boss. The three then dig into a large pile of tinned fruit. While all this is happening, Gary, Dawn and Brock are busy searching for Ash with Staravia flying above them keeping look out.

Later that night, Team Rocket are sound asleep which Ash tells Gligar is their chance to escape. Gligar nods, and Ash tells it to use X Scissor to break open the bars on the cage. Gligar does so, but the attack isn't strong enough so Ash tells it to use it again but this time with as much power as possible. Gligar fails again however, and its claw starts to glow red with pain. Ash tells it not to worry, and starts to smash into the cage bars himself. Gligar watches this in amazement. Gligar then resolves to try as hard as possible to get out of the cage and starts to use X Scissor again. This time Ash notices a change in the strength of the bar, as it appears wobbly at the top. At this, Ash tells Gligar that they need to work together to get out and they both attack the cage bars at the same time which breaks them open. The two then escape from the clearing where Team Rocket had landed and head out on their way back to the gang. On the way they come across an old looking bridge, and Gligar jumps on Ash's back as they try to get across it. The wind makes this very hard, as well as the various holes in the bridge which Ash jumps between. The bridge then falls apart sending Ash and Gligar falling, but Ash manages to grab a hold of the rope holding the bridge together and merely swings and hits the rock facing.

Back at Team Rocket's camp, James wakes up from a peaceful sleep and is horrified to find Ash and Gligar gone. He then tries to wake up Jessie and Meowth. Back with Ash, we find that he and Gligar have managed to climb their way back up to the top of the cliff. Ash looks around, and notices a tree near the edge of the cliff not far from where the bridge used to stand. He tells Gligar to try and knock it over, which it tries to but fails. Ash asks Gligar if its okay, but Gligar simply gets back up and tries again, jumping into the air and smashing into the tree again. This time, Gligar finally succeeds and the tree falls, forming as a bridge between the two cliff edges. Ash is proud of Gligar, and tells it that it's earned the Razor Fang that Gary gave him before. Gligar is overwhelmed with happiness and hugs Ash, but the happy moment is interrupted by Team Rocket who appear in their Gliscor balloon. Ash tells them to leave them alone, but is ignored as Team Rocket is set on stealing Gligar for Giovanni. The Gliscor tail shoots out again, but Ash jumps in the way of it and is captured instead. Holding Gligar in his arms, he tells it that he's going to let it go enabling it to escape. He then does so, and Gligar falls down below. Ash then falls himself, and flies past Gligar due to being heavier. Gligar notices Ash falling below him and tries to grab him but isn't fast enough. Ash then throws Gligar the Razor Fang, which Gligar grabs and then evolves into Gliscor! Gliscor then grabs Ash and uses its tail to cushion the blow to the ground. Team Rocket then float down from above, and the team seem confident that they can still capture Gligar in its evolved state.

Ash then tells Gliscor to use X Scissor, which smashes into the Gliscor balloon tail and knocks it back. At this, Gary, Dawn and Brock run onto the scene and call out to Ash. Dawn is amazed to see that Gligar has evolved, and Brock congratulates it for doing so. Team Rocket then shout out to the group below angry at being ignored, and Meowth sends out the claws of the Gliscor balloon mecha. This is deflected once again by the real Gliscor's X Scissor attack. Ash then tells it to grab a hold of a tree branch and charge up its power, which it does, before flinging itself of the tree and using Steel Wing aimed at Team Rocket. James smirks, saying that Gliscor can't beat their mecha balloon's power. Meowth then activates the balloon's Steel Wing mode, which emulates the real Pokémon's attack. The two 'Gliscor' face off, both Pokémon hitting each other at the same time. Ash's Gliscor wins out, and Team Rocket's splits into two halves and falls down to the ground. Meowth gloomily remarks that they won't have a Pokémon to give to Giovanni after all, but Jessie screams at it to help them get the mecha back together again. Ash then tells Pikachu to use Thunderbolt, which causes the Gliscor to explode and sending Team Rocket blasting off again. The group are relieved to have sent Team Rocket packing, and the sun then rises as if to agree with them.

Soon after, we find Ash, Dawn and Brock saying their goodbyes to Gary. The young researcher seems impressed with Ash, and Ash thanks Gary for the help he has given them, including giving him a Razor Fang. Suddenly, Dawn starts to recite a Pokémon Poem thinking that like his Grandfather Gary is a big fan and expert on them. Dawn seems proud but the rest of the group smile and sweat drop. An instant later this is forgotten about, and Gary bids the group farewell, wishing everyone good luck in their goals. They then wave goodbye to him, before heading out on the road to their next adventure.

'''Pyramid King Brandon''' (Japanese: '''ピラミッドキングジンダイ''' ''Pyramid King Jindai'') is the [[Frontier Brain]] and chief of the {{ho|Battle Frontier}}'s [[Battle Frontier (Hoenn)#Battle Pyramid|Battle Pyramid]].

==In the anime==
[[Image:Brandon anime.jpg|left|thumb|Brandon in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Brandon's Japanese voice actor is 小室正幸 ''[[Masayuki Komuro]]'' and his English voice actor is [[Craig Blair]]. Internationally, he is played by Frank Verkerk in Dutch and Rolando del Castro in Latin-American Spanish.

He is shrouded in mystery for most of the Battle Frontier saga. Unlike the other Brains, his silhouette is not shown on its own during the opening and is only seen in the center of the group shot. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s will only find out the location of the Battle Pyramid after they have collected the other six symbols. This may mean that Brandon ranks higher than the rest of the Frontier Brains, although in the video games and manga this position belongs to [[Anabel]]. When {{Ash}} finally gets his sixth Frontier Symbol in ''[[AG170|Second Time's the Charm]]'', he learns that it is located near [[Pewter City]].

The first battle with Brandon occurred in ''[[AG178|Battling the Enemy Within]]''. However, Ash was possessed by an [[King of Pokélantis|ancient king]] of the Pyramid who battled Brandon's Regirock with [[Ash's Sceptile]]. Sceptile unfortunately was defeated, though Ash eventually regained control of his body and the Pyramid was moved to an area near the [[Indigo Plateau]].

For their second battle in ''[[AG186|Overjoyed!]]'', [[Ash's Torkoal]] squared off against Brandon's {{p|Registeel}}. However, it too was defeated by Brandon's [[Legendary Pokémon]].

Ash and {{ashfr|co.}} met up with Brandon in a forest, in ''[[AG189|Gathering the Gang of Four]]''. In ''[[AG190|Pace - The Final Frontier!]]'', Brandon and Ash fought in a 4 vs 4 battle, in which Ash was able to win.

==In the games==
Any trainer arriving at the top of the pyramid just after Brandon must battle this Pyramid King for the status of the pyramid's conqueror.

Brandon appreciates the grand life of the explorer. He recalls the passion, danger, and desperation of his death-defying and life-affirming adventures. When defeated in battle, he'll praise the grandness of the match and hand over the Brave Symbol.

===Quotes===
* First battle:
''"Young adventurer… Wouldn’t you agree that explorations are the grandest of adventures? Your own wits! Your own strength! Your own Pokémon! And, above all, only your courage to lead you through unknown worlds… Aah, yes, indeed this life is grand! Grand, it is! Eh? I’m Brandon. I’m the Pyramid King, which means I’m in charge here. Most people call me the chief! You coming here means you have that much confidence in yourself, am I right? Hahahah! This should be exciting! Now, then! Bring your courage to our battle!"''

''"That’s it! You’ve done great! You’ve worked hard for this! Hahahah! Grand it was! Grand, yes, indeed! Well done! You’ve earned recognition! Your Frontier Pass, please! Young explorer! I look forward to our next meeting! "''

* Second battle:
''"…You’ve finally returned, young explorer… Your love for adventure seems to come deep from within your heart… Yes… You are exactly as I was in my own youth… … … …Ah… The passionate! The dangerous! The desperate! Those days of death-defying, life-affirming adventures are back… Now, then! I sense my courage is off the meter! Everything you have! I’m braced for it all!"''

''"That’s it! You’ve done it! You kept working for this! Hahahah! Remarkable! Yes, it’s grand, indeed! Young explorer! You’ve dested me through and through! Here! I want you to have this! Ah, yes! It just goes to show that I have much to learn still! May our paths cross again! Farewell for now, young explorer!"''

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
Brandon took witness to {{Special|Emerald}}'s battle with Noland and immediately refined his facility for him, just in case. He seems to carry a special dislike for Emerald, but treats him fairly - explaining the rules of the Battle Frontier and showing off his Pokémon to the boy before the challenge. He expects Emerald to be tired out during their confrontation, but is surprised to see that Emerald used a Phanpy's Pick Up ability to collect enough items to keep his team refreshed. Brandon says he favors one-hit KO moves like Explosion.

===Pokémon===
The following is the listing for Brandon's Pokémon in the Pokémon Special manga:

| align=center | [[Image:379.png]] {{p|Registeel}}

|}

==Trivia==
* He's the only character in the {{pkmn|anime}} to officially train Pokémon that have been deemed [[Legendary Pokémon|legendary]], though [[Noland]] did befreind and train with an {{p|Articuno}}.
* He is also the only character to have been challenged 3 times by Ash before being defeated.

Ok, the trivia section of the episode states that this episode is the first time that Ash ever deliberately hurts a pokemon. But didn't Ash bite Meowth in the tail in [[EP012|Here comes the Squirtle Squad]]?

This isn't right. We don't need to link the Pokémon names in the title. We never did it before and we already link all the Pokémon in the Character section.

I'm guessing the dub title will pun the children's song, "Pop goes the Weasel". Not so much the title of the song but lyrics of the song.

===Physiology===
[[Image:Chimchar fireless.jpg|left|thumb|A sleeping Chimchar - note the lack of a flame.]]
Chimchar are based on chimpanzees. Being very agile, Chimchar are able to climb the rocky ledges of tall mountains, where they live. The flames on their rears are produced by burning gas in their stomachs. Chimchar also has a swirl-like symbol on the chest. The flames do not go out in the rain, and, unlike the tail flames of Charmander, those of Chimchar go out when they go to sleep. Despite being based on chimpanzees, Chimchar's [[cry]] is actually much more similar to that of a spider monkey.

Chimchar jumped out of a broken window with Piplup chasing after it.

==Trivia==
* Chimchar is the only [[starter Pokémon]] in the {{egg3|Humanshape}}.
* Chimchar is the only Pokémon to learn {{M|Facade}} by level up.
===Origin===
Chimchar appears to be based on a young {{wp|monkey}}. The fiery tail mirrors {{p|Charmander}}, and the two Pokémon share the root ''char'' in their name. This is mirrored in their Japanese names, '''Hi'''kozaru (Chimchar) and '''Hi'''tokage (Charmander), sharing the element 火 ''hi'', meaning "fire".
====Name origin====
Hikozaru's name is derived from 火 ''hi'', or ''{{wp|fire}}'', 子 ''ko'', or ''{{wp|child}}'', and 猿 ''saru'', or ''{{wp|monkey}}''. ''Zaru'' is used to describe an {{wp|ape}}. Chimchar comes from [[wp:chimp|chimp]] and char. Its German name, Panflam, comes from {{tt|Schimpanse|chimpanzee}} and {{tt|Flamme|flame}}. Its French name, Ouisticram, comes from {{tt|ouistiti|marmoset}} and {{tt|cramé|burnt}}. Its Korean name comes from the words 불꽃(''Bulkkot'', meaning 'flame') and 원숭이 (''Wonsung'i'', meaning 'monkey').

==In other languages==

==Trivia==
* Chimchar is the only [[starter Pokémon]] in the {{egg3|Humanshape}}.
* Chimchar is the only Pokémon to learn {{M|Facade}} by level up.
*Chimchar's name has some similarity to [[Hirokazu Tanaka]].
===Origin===
Chimchar appears to be based on a young {{wp|monkey}}. The fiery tail mirrors {{p|Charmander}}, and the two Pokémon share the root ''char'' in their name. This is mirrored in their Japanese names, '''Hi'''kozaru (Chimchar) and '''Hi'''tokage (Charmander), sharing the element 火 ''hi'', meaning "fire".
====Name origin====
Hikozaru's name is derived from 火 ''hi'', or ''{{wp|fire}}'', 子 ''ko'', or ''{{wp|child}}'', and 猿 ''saru'', or ''{{wp|monkey}}''. ''Zaru'' is used to describe an {{wp|ape}}. Chimchar comes from [[wp:chimp|chimp]] and char. Its German name, Panflam, comes from {{tt|Schimpanse|chimpanzee}} and {{tt|Flamme|flame}}. Its French name, Ouisticram, comes from {{tt|ouistiti|marmoset}} and {{tt|cramé|burnt}}. Its Korean name comes from the words 불꽃(''Bulkkot'', meaning 'flame') and 원숭이 (''Wonsung'i'', meaning 'monkey').

==In other languages==

{{spoilers}}
==Synopsis==
After the collision between {{m|BubbleBeam}} and {{m|Sludge Bomb}}, {{an|Dawn}} orders {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} to go in the water. {{si|Kyle}} sends {{p|Crawdaunt}} into the water as well. As Piplup and Crawdaunt charge towards each other, Dawn tells Piplup to use {{m|Whirlpool}} which takes Crawdaunt by surprise and costs Kyle points. Kyle counters telling Crawdaunt to use {{m|Surf}} which crashes down on Piplup and sends it backwards. Crawdaunt smoothly lands with Dawn to think of what to do next. Kyle tells Crawdaunt to use {{m|Dark Pulse}} which comes towards Piplup. Dawn tells Piplup to dodge and it spins in between the two Dark Pulses. Then she orders Piplup to use {{m|Bide}}. While spinning, Piplup starts to glow white, then purple from the attack. Not wanting any surprises to happen, Kyle orders a {{m|Crabhammer}} from Crawdaunt. Crawdaunt jumps in the air about to strike Piplup, but Dawn tells Piplup to release and purple light is shot at Crawdaunt. Crawdaunt gets hit, costing Kyle a lot of points. As the attack is finished, Crawdaunt falls in the water, Piplup lands, and time runs out. The screen is shown and Dawn wins the round.

[[Jessie]] interviews Dawn about her win, but then tries to take all the attention, again.

Next up is {{an|May}} and [[Zoey]]. May sends out {{TP|May|Beautifly}} and Zoey sends out {{TP|Zoey|Glameow}}. May starts off telling Beautifly to use {{m|Silver Wind}} which hits Glameow effectively. Glameow takes the hit for a while before Zoey tells Glameow to jump. May orders Beautifly to use {{m|Psychic}} but Zoey tells Glameow to dodge and use {{m|Shadow Claw}}. May tells Beautifly to dodge which Beautifly does gracefully. However, Zoey anticipated that tells Glameow to hit the water. Rising water surrounds Beautifly leaving May undecided want to do next. {{Ash}} and co. comment on May and Zoey's battle so far. Zoey orders Glameow to use {{m|Shock Wave}} which bounces on the water and hits Beautifly. Ash and co. comment on Zoey's combinations. After the attack makes contact, the water is zapped away with a sparking Beautifly flying backwards. Beautifly shrugs off the electric charge and May comments, in her head, how good a coordinator Zoey is. Glameow jumps out the water sparkling with an electrical charge glaring at Beautifly. [[Wallace]] makes a statement on the battle along with Jessie, [[James]], and {{MTR}}. Zoey commands an {{m|Iron Tail}} but May counters telling Beautifly to use Silver Wind on the water. Glameow charges through the towering water with Beautifly slyly coming from behind it. May tells Beautifly to use Psychic which sends Glameow backwards. May then tells Beautifly to use {{m|Morning Sun}} and Beautifly raises up and starts to glow blindingly. After a while, the glow disperses and Dawn comments on how beautiful it looked. May tells Beautifly to use {{m|Aerial Ace}} and Zoey tells Glameow to use Shadow Claw. The two Pokémon charge at each other over the water and collide resulting in an explosion. Time runs out and May and Zoey look up to see who is the victor. May wins the round.

Dawn gets nervous about the finals and subconsciously squeezes Piplup. Ash and [[Brock]] calm down Dawn, and Zoey comes behind and tells Dawn good luck in her next match. Jessie interviews May, but once again, tries to bring all the attention upon her.

Before the battle starts, May and Dawn exchange words and good luck and report to their sides. [[Johanna]], [[Caroline]], [[Max]], [[Norman]], [[Harley]], [[Drew]], [[Drew's Roserade]], and [[Solidad]] watch as May and Dawn's battle is about to begin. Wallace says some words and the battle begins. Dawn sends out Piplup and May sends out {{TP|May|Glaceon}}, which surprises Dawn. Dawn starts off telling Piplup to use BubbleBeam. May tells Glaceon to dodge and use {{m|Secret Power}}. Glaceon glows pink and hits Piplup, which seems to be {{status|Paralysis|paralyzed}} for a bit. May then orders Glaceon to use {{m|Ice Shard}} which has Piplup in a spot. Dawn tells Piplup to go in the water and Glaceon looks menacing at it. Piplup jumps out of the water and Dawn orders Piplup to use Whirlpool. Despite the size of it, May isn't phased one bit and orders Glaceon to use {{m|Mirror Coat}}. The two collide but Glaceon pushes it back at Piplup which sends it flying backwards. Piplup recovers fast and Dawn tells it to use BubbleBeam. Glaceon is hit hard and May loses points. May tells Glaceon to use {{m|Shadow Ball}} but Piplup dodges with its spinning move. May is impressed but sees where Piplup will land. Before Piplup lands, May orders Glaceon to use Secret Power. Dawn tries to have Piplup land before Glaceon hits, but Glaceon is too fast. Piplup is sent spinning into the air, but Dawn uses it against May having Piplup spin gracefully and landing in a pose, which surprised both May and Glaceon. Ash, Brock, and Zoey comment on how well the two are battling. May has Glaceon use Shadow Ball and toss it in the air. Glaceon jumps and flips twice hitting the Shadow Ball with its tail giving it momentum. Dawn has Piplup use BubbleBeam which smashes through the Shadow Ball and hits Glaceon. This surprises May and impresses the judges and [[Marian]]. Dawn tells Piplup to use {{m|Peck}} but May has Glaceon dodge it and use Ice Shard. Dawn counters it by having Piplup block it with Whirlpool. Dawn then has Piplup ride the Whirlpool which gets everyones attention and applause. May tells Glaceon to use Shadow Ball and Dawn has Piplup dodge. The Shadow Ball hits the Whirlpool and becomes a huge splash of water. Dawn has Piplup use BubbleBeam and Piplup comes through the water and uses BubbleBeam. Glaceon is hit hard, again, and May tells it to use Shadow Ball. Dawn responds by using Peck. When then two attacks hit, the Shadow Ball becomes a wall of purple energy which distracts Dawn and Piplup. May tells Glaceon to use Ice Shard which hits Piplup hard. Dawn and May comment on how well the both of them are doing but won't give up. Dawn has Piplup use Whirlpool and May responds with Mirror Coat. Glaceon stands up to it for a while and eventually Glaceon and Piplup both get hit as a result. The two Pokémon are still standing after being washed back to their places and time runs out. May and Dawn look up to see who won the Cup and the victor is Dawn. The points are barely far apart, literally Dawn seems .5 ahead of May. Dawn is speechless while Glaceon lowers its head, ears, and tail. Ash stands up excited that Dawn won. May tells Glaceon that it did a good job and Glaceon cheers up a little. May whispers something to Dawn and Dawn's eyes start to get teary from happiness. Piplup jumps into Dawn's arms and the judges comment on the battle.

Wallace says his final words to Dawn and then gives the Aqua Ribbon to Dawn. Everyone claps for Dawn, she does her pose and {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}}, Piplup, {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}}, and {{TP|Dawn|Ambipom}} jump up to celebrate her win. Wallace dismisses the Cup with his {{p|Milotic}} using {{m|Hydro Pump}} in the air creating a geyser creating a glittery effect.

Everyone is off to see May go back to [[Johto]]. May and Dawn are holding hands as she is about to leave. Everyone says their goodbyes and exchange words then May leaves on the boat. She waves and says goodbye as the boat is going away and everyone responds by waving back.

'''Zangoose''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ザングース''' ''Zangoose'') is a {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon. It is well-known for its ongoing feud against {{p|Seviper}}.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Zangoose are fairly large mammalian Pokémon that have the characteristics of mongooses and cats. They are mostly white in color, but possess deep red markings on its face, chest and paws. These markings make it appear that it has been involved in a vicious fight and is covered in "blood". They have long sharp claws that are their main weapons. In earlier sprites, these claws were purple in color.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Zangoose's {{a|Immunity}} ability makes it immune to {{status|Poison|poison}}. This is possibly an adaptation that was developed over time to deal with the fangs and tail of its nemesis, {{p|Seviper}}. It is also capable of any elemental attack that isn't {{type2|Water}}.

===Behavior===
Zangoose are bitter enemies with Seviper, the two will battle each other to the bitter end. It is suggested this rivalry has lasted for ages.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Grassland.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Grassland Pokémon|Grassland Pokémon]]]]

Another Zangoose appeared in the {{an|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2}} special as the leader of Team Razor Wind.

In ''[[DP051|Glory Blaze]]'', it is discovered that [[Paul]] found {{AP|Chimchar}} being attacked by a group of Zangoose. Because of the amazing power it used fighting the Zangoose, Paul decided to capture it. Later, Chimchar was to fight another Zangoose and nearly lost to it.

In ''[[DP053|Tears For Fears!]]'' another group of Zangoose appeared before [[Team Rocket]] and fought with [[Jessie]]'s {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}. Later, Chimchar found the courage to defeat them.

==Trivia==
* Despite being based on a mongoose, the Pokédex entry says that it is the "Cat Ferret Pokémon".
* Although it is stated that Seviper and Zangoose are bitter enemies, they are both in the {{egg|Ground}} egg group, meaning that they can breed in the games.
* Despite its sharp claws, as well as the basis of its name (see below), Zangoose is unable to learn {{m|Cut}}.
* The rivalry between Seviper and Zangoose is based on the relationship between the {{wp|mongoose}} and the {{wp|king cobra}} - the cobra is the largest venomous snake in the world, and the mongoose is one of its few predators.
** The markings on Zangoose's chest and the area of Seviper's body directly under its head resemble and M and an S, relating to the fact that the two were modeled after the mongoose and snake.
* From [[Generation III]] to [[Generation IV]], Zangoose's claws have changed from purple to black.
* Before [[Generation IV]], Zangoose was the [[signature move|only Pokémon]] to learn {{m|Crush Claw}} by leveling up.
* Zangoose is compatible with the [[RSE]] move tutor that teaches {{m|Thunder Wave}}, but not the TM that teaches the move that was introduced this generation.

===Origin===
Zangoose is, as its name implies, based on a {{wp|mongoose}}.

====Name origin====
Zangoose's name is a portmanteau of ''mongoose'', a small, cat-like carnivore that is well known for its ability to hunt and kill venomous snakes, and 刪 ''san'', cut down.

'''Chimchar''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヒコザル''' ''Hikozaru'') is a {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Monferno}} starting at [[level]] 14, whom evolves into {{p|Infernape}} starting at [[level]] 36.

Along with {{p|Turtwig}} and {{p|Piplup}}, it is one of the three [[starter Pokémon]] the player receives at the beginning of {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
[[Image:Chimchar fireless.jpg|left|thumb|A sleeping Chimchar - note the lack of a flame.]]
Chimchar are based on chimpanzees. Being very agile, Chimchar are able to climb the rocky ledges of tall mountains, where they live. The flames on their rears are produced by burning gas in their stomachs. Chimchar also has a swirl-like symbol on the chest. The flames do not go out in the rain, and, unlike the tail flames of Charmander, those of Chimchar go out when they go to sleep. Despite being based on chimpanzees, Chimchar's [[cry]] is actually much more similar to that of a spider monkey.
====Gender differences====
====Special abilities====

===Behavior===
Much like their real world counterpart, Chimchar are very inquisitive and are prone to mischief, but can show bravery when push comes to shove.

Chimchar are very rare and only make their nests in cliffsides and rocky mountains.

===Diet===

==In the anime==
[[Image:Chimchar-anime.jpg|right|thumb|200px|[[Ash's Chimchar]].]]
Chimchar first appeared in ''[[DP001|Following a Maiden Voyage]]''. The little fire-monkey was teasing a {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} after stealing food from it. Piplup then started firing a {{m|Bubble}} attack, but Chimchar kept jumping out of the way. {{p|Staraptor}} was hit in Piplup's line of fire and created a {{m|Gust}} that wrecked everything in [[Professor Rowan]]'s lab. Chimchar jumped out of a broken window with Piplup chasing after it.

When [[Paul]] first appeared, he commanded a {{TP|Paul|Chimchar}} in ''[[DP003|When Pokémon Worlds Collide]]''. Paul released it in ''[[DP051|Glory Blaze]]'', allowing {{Ash}} to catch it in ''[[DP052|Smells Like Team Spirit]]''.

[[Alice]] from ''[[The Rise of Darkrai]]'' owns a Chimchar. She uses it to power her hot air balloon.

Chimchar is also one of the two main members of the [[Poképals]] (Japanese: ポケダンズ ''Pokédans'') in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2 (anime)|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon 2 anime special]].

==Trivia==
* Chimchar is the only [[starter Pokémon]] in the {{egg3|Humanshape}}.
* Chimchar is the only Pokémon to learn {{M|Facade}} by level up.
* Despite having no physical tail, it can learn {{m|Iron Tail}}.
* Chimchar's Japanese name, Hikozaru, is similar to Ukita Hirokazu in [[wp:Death Note|Death Note]], thought they have no relation.
===Origin===
Chimchar appears to be based on a young {{wp|monkey}}. The fiery tail mirrors {{p|Charmander}}, and the two Pokémon share the root ''char'' in their name. This is mirrored in their Japanese names, '''Hi'''kozaru (Chimchar) and '''Hi'''tokage (Charmander), sharing the element 火 ''hi'', meaning "fire".
====Name origin====
Hikozaru's name is derived from 火 ''hi'', or ''{{wp|fire}}'', 子 ''ko'', or ''{{wp|child}}'', and 猿 ''saru'', or ''{{wp|monkey}}''. ''Zaru'' is used to describe an {{wp|ape}}. Chimchar comes from [[wp:chimp|chimp]] and char. Its German name, Panflam, comes from {{tt|Schimpanse|chimpanzee}} and {{tt|Flamme|flame}}. Its French name, Ouisticram, comes from {{tt|ouistiti|marmoset}} and {{tt|cramé|burnt}}. Its Korean name comes from the words 불꽃(''Bulkkot'', meaning 'flame') and 원숭이 (''Wonsung'i'', meaning 'monkey').

'''Pokémon Platinum''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスタープラチナ''' ''Pocket Monsters Platina'') is a sister game to {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, and is the third [[Generation IV]] [[main series]] game. The [[version mascot|mascot]] is {{p|Giratina}}. It will take place in the Sinnoh region and the player's starting location will be [[Twinleaf Town]], just like {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}. The game was first seen on May 11, 2008 when a low-resolution cell-phone picture of an upcoming issue of [[CoroCoro]] magazine was leaked around the Internet. On May 15, the magazine was officially released and the game was also officially confirmed by Nintendo.

==Known changes from Pokémon Diamond and Pearl==
===Aesthetic changes===
* {{ga|Lucas}}, {{ga|Dawn}} and {{ga|Pearl}} have different outfits designed for colder weather, as the entire Sinnoh region has dropped in temperature.
* The template for the [[level]], [[HP]], and name of Pokémon in battle is a dark gray instead of white and its shape has changed.
* The [[Pokétch]] has been redesigned. Players can now move up and down between application instead of having to go through all of them to return to a previous one.
* When Pokémon are sent out from their [[Poké Ball]]s, the back view animation will have been changed, along with the front view animations. Much like the animations introduced in {{game|Emerald}} and carried over to Diamond, Pearl and Platinum, these entry animations will consist of two frames with various distortions to the sprite.
* When battling certain {{pkmn|Trainer}}s such as [[Gym Leader]]s and {{ga|Pearl}}, their sprites are now animated to move in the same manner as Pokémon.
* Three gyms have had their appearance changed. [[Eterna Gym|Eterna]], [[Hearthome Gym|Hearthome]], and [[Veilstone Gym]]s have all had complete redesigns.
* Gym Leader closeups, just before a Gym battle, have been changed from enlarged sprites to higher-quality drawings and the terms VS. 
* When entering new areas, the location 'labels' on the top-left corner have been redesigned, much like they were between {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} and {{game|Emerald}}.

===Storyline changes===
* The player meets [[Professor Rowan]] and the opposite gender character earlier, and obtains his or her [[starter Pokémon]] on [[Route 201]].
* The player and the rival now encounter [[Cyrus]] at [[Lake Verity]] at the start of the game. The player can also meet Cyrus at different venues such as the Eterna City statue.
* {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} will both appear on [[Spear Pillar]]. {{p|Giratina}} then phases into [[Pokémon universe|the dimension]] in front of [[Cyrus]].
* A new area known as the [[Torn World]] (Japanese: やぶれたせかい ''Torn World'') will be playable. Screenshots depict it with floor-like sections floating at ninety-degree angles from each other, creating an effect similar to the art of {{wp|M. C. Escher}}. Another one depicts Lucas surfing downward along a waterfall. Giratina, when here, will be in its Origin Forme. It is unknown if other Pokémon will be wild in the area. A video has shown that the camera angle switches between perspective and isometric views to suit the angle of the player. It also shows moving platforms with jumpable gaps between them.
* At least two new characters will be added. One is [[Pluto|a professor]] of [[Team Galactic]], and the other is a police officer spying on Team Galactic, using the codename "[[Handsome]]" (Japanese: ハンサム).
* A double battle between {{EF|Flint}} and [[Volkner]] takes place at the entrance to the {{si|Battle Frontier}} with the {{ga|Pearl|player's rival}}.
* [[Team Galactic]]'s plans for world domination and the layouts of their HQs, such as the one in Eterna, have been changed. In addition, Team Galactic openly recognizes its goal and is more openly villainous.
* Some of the [[Gym Leader]]s have been reordered: [[Fantina]] is now the third Gym Leader, [[Maylene]] is the fourth and [[Crasher Wake]] is the fifth.
* [[Cynthia]] now gives the player a {{g|egg}} containing {{p|Togepi}} after the player has defeated the [[Galactic Eterna Building]].
* {{ga|Dawn}}/{{ga|Lucas}} no longer gives the player the [[Dowsing Machine]] or the [[Vs Seeker]] near the [[Route 206]] Junction; instead he/she meets the player at the entrance to [[Mt. Coronet]].
* The player is now able to challenge all the [[Gym Leader]]s of Sinnoh to rematches in a restaurant in the [[Survival Area]].

===Gameplay changes===
* 59 more Pokémon have been added to the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Dex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] to give it a grand total of 210 entries, with all non-legendary Pokémon introduced in Generation IV now included, along with their pre-evolved forms and several other Pokémon.
* Giratina can appear both as Another Forme and Origin Forme in Platinum. It will appear in Origin Forme while in the [[Torn World]], and in Another Forme while out of it. A [[Platinum Orb]] is required to transform it to its Origin Forme outside of the Torn World.
* The [[ability]] of the Origin Forme is {{a|Levitate}} and it can learn the moves {{m|Mud Slap}}, {{m|Spite}} and {{m|Outrage}}.
* Shaymin's new Forme is called ''Sky Forme'' and takes on a canine appearance. Its [[ability]] is {{a|Serene Grace}} and the form is focused on {{stat|Speed}} and {{stat|Special Attack}}. It will be able to learn new moves like {{m|Quick Attack}}, {{m|Air Slash}} and {{m|Leaf Storm}}.
* {{p|Shaymin}} will be able to change between its two forms via the use of the [[Glacidea Flower]] (Japanese: グラシデアのはな). This item will not work at [[Time#Times of day|night]] or if Shaymin is {{status|Freeze|frozen}}.
* {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}} and {{p|Registeel}} will be catchable at level 30 with the help of an [[List of Nintendo event Pokémon in 2008#Movie Regigigas, Japan, June 20-August 31, 2008|event]] {{p|Regigigas}} that has been distributed in Japan.
* The Wi-Fi area has been enhanced with the [[Wi-Fi Square]], which supports up to 20 people at a time. The new area seems to focus exclusively on mini-games, which include ''Rapid Wobbuffet'', where players hit a {{p|Wobbuffet}}, and ''Merry Mime Jr.'', players can balance {{p|Mime Jr.}} on a ball.
* The [[Poffin]] making has been modified with a new feature involving a {{p|Swalot}}-shaped machine, into which [[Berry|berries]] can be thrown. This can be done over Wi-Fi in the new [[Wi-Fi Square]].
* There is a new [[key item]] called the [[Battle Recorder]] (given by [[Handsome]] when the player first meets him in [[Jubilife City]]), which allows players to record battles in which they take part, and share the records with other players over the [[GTS]]. Battle records can be rated by other players upon viewing, and the most popular battle records are displayed for all to see. Players can also take pictures of their [[PC]] boxes and share them with other players in a similar fashion.
* The [[GTS]] has incorporated an E-mail system that allows players to be notified of completed trades. Notification messages are sent to the player's actual E-mail address.
* More Pokémon, such as {{p|Piplup}} and {{p|Chimchar}}, will be allowed in an expanded [[Amity Square]].
* Over local wireless, there is a new feature where the player and their friends can put their Pokémon eggs in and randomly swap.
* {{p|Rotom}} is now available earlier in the game; anytime after the player defeats [[Gardenia|the second Gym Leader]]. Gardenia will be waiting outside the [[Old Chateau]] after the player defeats her. Rotom can be found in the same location but now at the higher level of Lvl.20.

===Map changes===
*A new {{si|Battle Frontier}} takes the place of the [[Battle Park]]. It has the {{si|Battle Tower}}, {{si|Battle Factory}}, {{si|Battle Castle}}, {{si|Battle Roulette}} and {{si|Battle Stage}} as venues.
*[[Twinleaf Town]] and nearby Routes now have snow patches.
*[[Jubilife City]] has been refurbished with new pathways and some buildings have animated roof lights.
*The [[Global Trade Station]] in [[Jubilife City]] has been completely redesign and now includes a bigger global terminal.
*An arch now represents the entrance to [[Floaroma Town]].
*Mist is now present in [[Eterna Forest]], but is not eligible for the move {{m|Defog}} to be used to clear it away.
*[[Eterna City]] has been refurbished with new foliage and pathways. Also the [[Galactic Eterna Building]] has had a complete redesign, inside and out.
*[[Route 206|Cycling Road]] has been redesigned and now has tunnel-like shelters in the middle of the Cycle Route.
*[[Hearthome City]] has been refurbished with new pathways.
*[[Amity Square]] has been completely remodeled. It now includes a small lake, more paths and more upper levels. The old buildings that previously inhabited Amity Square now contain Warp Panels which transport the player to the other old buildings within Amity Square.
*The [[Canalave City]] Library has been redesigned.
*Sinnoh's climate has changed drastically. Snow is now found as far south as [[Twinleaf Town]], whereas the [[Battle Zone]] is now warmer. Palm trees can also be found outside the {{si|Battle Frontier}}.
*[[Stark Mountain]] now actually represents a volcano, showing real lava and a crag.

==New Pokémon related to {{p|Rotom}}==
*A trailer and a [http://www.pokemon.co.jp/special/platinum/hotnews/06.html post] on the game's official website - both published on August 11 - showed five Pokémon silhouettes. It was also announced then that the items to unlock these Pokémon in the game would be distributed at retail stores as well as via Wi-Fi, during the period between September 28 and November 4, 2008. As of the game's release, it has been revealed that the silhouettes are related to {{p|Rotom}}. Despite having visual characteristics of other types, they share the original Rotom's {{t|Electric}} and {{t|Ghost}} types, whereas their [[Stat|base stats]] are far higher.

==Other information==
*This game is unable to connect with [[My Pokémon Ranch]], but is able to connect to [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]] and to [[Generation III]] games. It is unknown if Nintendo plans to release a patch that will allow My Pokémon Ranch to be compatible.

==Trivia==
*This is the first game where a [[version mascot]]'s primary color is not the name of the game. However, while no color is especially dominant in {{p|Giratina}}'s color scheme, it has gray elements that the "Platinum" may refer to, and the names ''Giratina'' and ''Platina'' share the same word ending.
* Platinum is the only game thus far to have altered a [[regional Pokédex]].
* Platinum is the first game to be named after a metal since {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}. However, both Gold and Silver are also considered colors, making Platinum the first game named solely after a metal.
** It also makes [[Generation IV]] the first generation in which two game names have the same first initial in English ('''P'''earl and '''P'''latinum). However, other languages have had the same initial in their game names, with Spanish '''A'''zul and '''A'''marillo for Blue and Yellow and German '''S'''aphir and '''S'''maragd for Sapphire and Emerald. Coincidentally, all three of these are the respective second and third versions of their generation.
* Two of the mini-games feature [[Team Rocket]]'s Pokémon: {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} and {{TP|James|Mime Jr.}}

Bag

2008-09-12T07:23:41Z

Utube1226: /* Generation IV */

The '''bag''' is quite possibly the most useful equipment in many of the [[Pokémon games]]. It is the equipment which holds almost all of the main character's other items. Even [[bike]]s can fit inside it, which later generation games explain by saying the bikes are collapsible. However ,Generation I is the most realistic, as you could not possibly fit berries into a bag with a bike (even if it is collapasble) without being crushed. It is also impossible to have infinite items such as in Generation IV.

==[[Generation I]]==
In Generation I, any item placed in the bag were in the same pocket. Ninety-nine of any item could fit inside, with only twenty different items allowed in the bag in total. When the bag was full, the player's [[PC]] could be used for any kind of item storage.

==[[Generation II]]==
In the second generation of games came along a major change in the bag's design: Items could now be separated into four different pockets depending on what they are.

* Healing items, including [[berries]]
* [[Poké Ball|Poké Balls]]
* [[TM]]s and [[HM]]s
* Key items

==[[Generation III]]==
In Generation III, the player could get a visual of the bag as he or she searched through it, with different designs of the bag for the unique characters. The amount of a single item that a player could carry was also expanded to 999, though if this limit is reached, they can still carry more of that item as it simply takes up a second slot in the bag. This generation also expanded the Pocket System from Generation II, with five pockets instead of four.

* Healing items
* [[Berries]]
* [[Poké Ball|Poké Balls]]
* [[TM]]s and [[HM]]s
* Key items

===[[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen]]===
The Pocket System in these two games differed from the rest. Rather than having separate pockets for Berries and TMs, the Key Items pocket contained two sub-pockets, the TM Case and Berry Pouch. FireRed/LeafGreen also introduced images for the items, the first time they had been pictured in the games. This feature was kept in [[Pokémon Emerald]] (though it was crudely added to the same menu structure as Ruby/Sapphire's bag system) and continued on into [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl]].

==[[Generation IV]]==
Generation IV revolutionized the Pocket System even more, dividing the bag up further:

* Items
* Medicine
* [[Poké Ball|Poké Balls]]
* [[TM]]s and [[HM]]s
* [[Berries]]
* [[Mail]]
* Battle Items
* Key Items

The player can navigate the bag by either using the face buttons on the DS or using the Touch Screen to scroll through the bag and items.

Unlike previous Generations, the bag has an infinite amount of space within it, meaning that the PC Item Storage system is obsolete and not present in the 4th Generation. It is replaced within the PC menu with an option for decorating [[Poké Ball]]s with [[Seals]] instead.

In Pokemon Platinum, Lucas' backpack is blue in colour.

Key Items can still be set to a hotkey that the player can press to call on that item without going through the bag each time but instead of the Select button - as has been the precedent in the past two Generations of games, this has been assigned to the 'Y' button.

==In the anime==
The major characters in the [[Pokémon anime]] own a bag and usually keep their supplies and Poké Balls inside of it. [[Brock]] seems to carry many more items in his bag than the other characters, including a variety of healing items, books, and cooking supplies. Brock's bag seems to best reflect the impressively large capacity of the game's bag. In ''[[EP009|The School of Hard Knocks]]'', he pulls a table and full tea set out of his backpack.

'''Conway''' (Japanese: '''コウヘイ''' ''Kōhei'') is a minor recurring character from the {{pkmn|anime}}. His first appearance was in [[DP050|''Tag! We're It!'']] as {{an|Dawn}}'s tag-team partner. His Japanese voice actor is 三戸耕三 ''Kōzō Mito'' and his English voice actor is [[Billy Regan]].

[[Image:Conway&Slowking.jpg|left|thumb|Conway and his Slowking]]
Conway was shown to be a very smart trainer. His strategies played an important role in helping {{an|Dawn}} and him to advance to the finals of the [[Sinnoh Double Battle Tournament]]. Conway appears again in [[DP088]] through [[DP091]] during a four-episode arc at a summer school. During this arc he demonstrates his knowledge about Pokémon as well as an {{s|HeatTagShipping|attraction}} towards Dawn.

Conway uses very effective strategies, but doesn't improvise much, something that has led to losses several times for him. Examples iclude using {{m|Confusion}} to redirect an attack, using {{m|Protect}} while another Pokémon attacks, and so on.

'''Fantina''' (Japanese: '''メリッサ''' ''Melissa'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Hearthome City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Hearthome Gym]]. She hands out the [[Relic Badge]] to [[Pokémon trainer|trainers]] who defeat her. She specializes in {{type2|Ghost}} [[Pokémon]]. She is apparently not from [[Pokémon nation|the country]] the games are set in, and often peppers her speech with phrases of French.

Her dress shares many elements as the design of the first [[Pokémon]] on her [[party]], {{p|Drifblim}}: it has a yellow "X" over a puffed out skirt of striped purple fabric.

==In the anime==
Despite the group having traveled through [[Hearthome City]] and {{an|Dawn}} having competed in a contest there, Fantina has not appeared in the anime. However, she did leave a note saying that she was going on a journey for a while, and to not look for her.

In [[DP086]], the group came back to Hearthome City, but still couldn't find Fantina in the gym.

===Pokémon===
Currently unknown.

==In the games==
Fantina uses {{type2|Ghost}} Pokémon in her battles. For defeating her, trainers receive the [[Relic Badge]], {{TM|65|Shadow Claw}} and are able to use {{m|Surf}} outside of battle. She considers herself to be a Contest Expert and refuses to let the hero challenge her until they deliver the [[Old Charm]] to [[Wilma|Grandma Wilma]] for [[Cynthia]]. Fantina speaks a mix of French and broken English and is an immigrant from another country. Upon arriving in Sinnoh, she decided to become a performer, so she dresses up in fancy outfits for Pokémon Contests. She also studied Pokémon and eventually attained the title of Gym Leader.

Fantina has a [[Hyper Potion]] she can use during the Gym battle.

Fantina can occasionally be competed against in {{pkmn|Super Contest}}s, in which she uses her {{p|Drifblim}}, nicknamed '''Loony''' (Japanese: '''ばるん''' ''Balloon'').

===Quotes===
In front of the Contest Hall at player's first visit to Hearthome City 
''Oh, I'm so sorry! Please excuse me. Are you entering a Contest? Tehehe... Enjoy yourself, please! Incidentally, Fantina, the Hearthome Gym Leader, also happens to be a Contest expert. And you may ask yourself, how do I know this? Well, I am Fantina! You may challenge me, but not yet! You must become much stronger. Then, you may challenge me!''

Before battle 
''"Ohohoho!! Finally, you have arrived! Since I came to this country, always I try to learn new things. They hold Contests in this city? I say to myself, {{tt|enfin|finally}}, I will excel. That's why I dress this way. {{tt|C'est une performance!|It is a performance!}} Also I study Pokémon very much. I have come to be Gym Leader. And, uh, so it shall be that you challenge me. But I shall win. That's what a Gym Leader does, {{tt|non|isn't it}}?"''

After sending out last Pokémon 
''"Oh, heavens. What is this? Is this my final Pokémon?"''

During battle 
''"Never give up, never surrender!"''

When defeated 
''"You are so fantastically strong. I know now why I have lost."''

After being defeated 
''"I am dumbfounded! So very, very strong! You, your Pokémon, so strong! Your power is admirable! I shall honor it with this Gym Badge!"''

''"Five Gym Badges... But you must not forget this. There are many other trainers. Strong Trainers, too. There are many more in Sinnoh. Have patience! You must become stronger, one at a time."''

==In the manga==
===[[Pokémon Special]]===
Fantina first appeared at the Super Contest Hall. When two women were making rude comments about rookie contestants, she sent out her Drifblim to carry them out and throw them into a garbage can. Then, when Diamond, Pearl and Berlitz came back to Hearthome City for the Gym Challenge, they discovered that she was the Gym Leader.

====Pokémon====
She has these Pokémon:

==Trivia==
*During the Gym battle in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, Fantina exclaims "Never give up, never surrender!", the catchphrase from the 1999 science fiction comedy {{wp|Galaxy Quest}}.
*In the French version she speaks English, while in the Japanese and German versions she has a noticeable accent.
*The proper French form of her name should be ''Fantine''.
*Fantina bears a resemblance to the [[Frontier Brain]] [[Dome Ace Tucker]].
*Apparently, Fantina has two {{p|Drifblim}}, one for battles, and one for [[Super Contest|Contests]] (the Drifblim she uses in contests knows {{m|Explosion}}, {{m|Constrict}}, {{m|Focus Energy}}, and {{m|Ominous Wind}}, a noticeably different moveset from the Drifblim she uses in battle).

'''Celestic Town''' (Japanese: '''カンナギタウン''' ''Kannagi Town'') is a town in the [[region]] of [[Sinnoh]]. It is a tiny town that preserves the history of Sinnoh and the old ways of life, the center of town has a small shrine that dates back to ancient times. It is one of the smallest towns in the entire region. It is also one of the oldest, and some say the town was there since Sinnoh came to be created.

==Places of Interest==
===Cynthia's family's house===
After the Elite Four is defeated, players can come here to see a picture of the [[version mascot]] of the counterpart version (Dialga for Pearl and Palkia for Diamond) to add to the Pokédex.

===Ruins===
Inside a cave, in the centre of the town, are etchings telling the legend of the {{p|Azelf}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Uxie}}. Just outside the cave are carvings of {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}.

==Demographic==
The population of Celestic Town is 13, making it the second least populous town in the Sinnoh Region. Most of [[Cynthia]]'s family lives here.

==Shop==
There's no Pokémon Mart in the city, so a pair of old people run a shop out of their house after the Elite Four have been defeated.

==In the anime==
While the group are yet to reach Celestic Town, a newsflash in ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training]]'' reported that the [[Lustrous Orb]] had been discovered nearby. On seeing the news, Cynthia decided to visit the town.

The next contest is said to be here, prior to [[DP084]].

==Trivia==
* Celestic's Japanese town motto is {{tt|むかしをつたえるまち|Town that conveys the past}}.
* Celestic Town's music is the same as [[Eterna City]]'s, which is a neighboring town of Celestic.
*Celestic Town is the hometown of [[Cynthia]].

===Name origin===
Celestic appears to derive its name from the word celestial, referring to the heavenly and supernatural. As its residents seem to know the [[Sinnoh myths|mythology of the Sinnoh region]] best, this is appropriate. Its Japanese name is derived from 巫 ''kannagi'', meaning "medium" or "shrine maiden."

'''Ash's Gligar''' (Japanese: '''サトシのグライガー''' ''Satoshi's Gliger'') is the fourth Pokémon [[captured Pokémon|captured]] by [[Ash Ketchum]] in the [[Sinnoh]] region. Its Japanese voice actor is 小西克幸 ''[[Katsuyuki Konishi]]''.

Ash caught Gligar in [[DP064]]. It and a {{TP|Paul|Gliscor}} had become trapped in a city after being blown there by a violent windstorm. Gliscor's attempts at using sonar to navigate out of the city were blocked by the tall buildings, and only served to attract more Gligar and the Pokémon soon formed a pack.

The pack survived by picking fruit from trees, and stealing food from humans. After Ash and his friends save the pack, Gligar decides to travel with Ash, allowing him to capture it.

Gligar seems to have a habit of licking its lips and winking when appearing. It also has a tendency to crash land on top of Ash. It is also a crybaby as shown in [[DP081]].
==Moves used==
*{{m|Sand-Attack}}
*{{m|Steel Wing}}
*{{m|X-Scissor}}

==Trivia==

* Gligar is the second Pokémon of the {{type2|Flying}} Ash has captured in [[Sinnoh]].
* Gligar is also the third Flying-type Pokémon Ash has ever captured whose other type wasn't Normal, the other two being {{AP|Butterfree}} and {{AP|Charizard}}.
* Gligar is Ash's third {{type2|Ground}}, right after {{AP|Donphan}} and {{AP|Larvitar}}, though Larvitar wasn't technically his.
* Ash's capture of Gligar brings another {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} to the group in the [[Diamond & Pearl series]], the others being [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]] and {{TP|Brock|Sudowoodo}}.

* Gligar's means of capture is similar to [[Ash's Squirtle]], in that it was part of a group of Pokémon of its species causing trouble for a town, joined because it wanted to go with Ash, filled Ash's [[party]] with six members, and was captured shortly before Ash met up with the region's third [[Gym Leader]].

*Gligar appears to show behavior that is like [[Ash's Bayleef]] and [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]]. This is shown in [[DP070]] when Gligar hugs Ash. Gligar's stinger also appears to be fairly small compared to other Gligar, which means it could be female. However, this is unconfirmed.
:*In [[DP075]], Gligar appeared to be blushing just moments before it tackled Ash to the floor; why it did so is unclear, but may be further evidence that it might be female.
:*Further, in [[DP081]], Gligar repeatedly goes to Ash for hugs and affection. Gligar listens very intently and contemplatively to Ash's encouragement, seeming to drink in his every word, and is even startled when the other Pokémon encourage it.

Also, the three Pokémon have English names which are also similar to their respective Japanese names.
*A recent trailer of ''[[Giratina and the Sky's Bouquet: Shaymin]]'' implies that Gligar may evolve, as a Gliscor is standing next to the rest of Ash's Pokémon and Ash's Gligar is not shown.

'''Ash's Gligar''' (Japanese: '''サトシのグライガー''' ''Satoshi's Gliger'') is the fourth Pokémon [[captured Pokémon|captured]] by [[Ash Ketchum]] in the [[Sinnoh]] region. Its Japanese voice actor is 小西克幸 ''[[Katsuyuki Konishi]]''.

Ash caught Gligar in [[DP064]]. It and a {{TP|Paul|Gliscor}} had become trapped in a city after being blown there by a violent windstorm. Gliscor's attempts at using sonar to navigate out of the city were blocked by the tall buildings, and only served to attract more Gligar and the Pokémon soon formed a pack.

The pack survived by picking fruit from trees, and stealing food from humans. After Ash and his friends save the pack, Gligar decides to travel with Ash, allowing him to capture it.

Gligar seems to have a habit of licking its lips and winking when appearing. It also has a tendency to crash land on top of Ash. It is also a crybaby as shown in [[[DP081]].

'''Piplup''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ポッチャマ''' ''Pochama'') is a {{type2|Water}} Pokémon. Along with {{p|Turtwig}} and {{p|Chimchar}}, it is one of the three [[starter Pokémon]] the player receives at the beginning of [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl]].

Piplup comes with the [[ability]] {{a|Torrent}}, which increases the power of Water-type attacks by 50% once the Pokémon has less than one-third of its maximum HP.

Piplup evolves into {{p|Prinplup}} at Level 16 and into {{p|Empoleon}} at Level 36.
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Piplup resembles a penguin chick and also looks a little bit like {{p|Torchic}}. It has yellow feet and a light-blue body. There are two white spots on its chest that seem to resemble buttons on a suit. It also appears to have a blue cape. It has a circular, blue head with white circles around its eyes and a small, yellow beak.

Despite the fact that Piplup is a Penguin Pokémon, it is a pure {{type2|Water}}.
====Gender differences====
None.
====Special abilities====
Piplup mainly know how to use Water attacks such as {{M|Bubble}}, but they also know {{M|peck}}ing attacks.

===Behavior===
Piplup have a large sense of self-pride. Because of this, a Piplup has a hard time accepting food from humans.

===Habitat===
Piplup live along the sea shore in colder climates. However, Piplup are quite rare and they're usually given out by [[Professor Rowan]] to new Pokémon trainers in the [[Sinnoh]] Region.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:Piplup-anime.jpg|thumb|Piplup in the anime]]
{{an|Dawn}} began her journey in [[Sinnoh]] with a {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}. In ''[[DP001|Following a Maiden's Voyage]]'', Piplup and the starter {{p|Chimchar}} got into a fight over their food, with Piplup causing chaos by using Bubble on the interior of [[Professor Rowan]]'s lab in pursuit of Chimchar. The two escape, and Dawn is given the task of finding them. She finds Piplup, and the two narrowly escape an {{p|Ariados}} attack. Back at Rowan's lab, Chimchar having been found by Rowan's {{p|Staraptor}}, Dawn chooses Piplup.

As the [[Diamond & Pearl series]] continued, Dawn kept Piplup out of its [[Poké Ball]] more and more often, much like {{Ash}} does with his {{AP|Pikachu}}. There have been entire episodes in which Piplup is not seen in its Ball even once.

{{Si|Kenny}} also had a Piplup at one time. It evolved into {{TP|Kenny|Prinplup}} before his first appearance.

A trainer Taisei has a Piplup. Taisei appears in [[DP080]].

==In the manga==
Much like her anime counterpart, {{Special|Berlitz}} of [[Pokémon Special]] began her journey with a Piplup. It eventually evolved into {{p|Prinplup}}, and later, into {{p|Empoleon}}.

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

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
On being released from a [[Poké Ball]], Piplup slides along the stage using {{m|Surf}}. Anyone caught in it will be pushed, possibly off the stage.

[[Image:Clippen.jpg|right|Clippen|thumb]]
*Piplup closely resembles a [http://mediacraft.shop.by/pics/items/20110_1.jpg Clippen] from {{wp|Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg}}. Like Piplup, it also has Water characteristics.
*Piplup is the only Water-type starter Pokémon that can't use {{m|Water Gun}}.
*Piplup is also the second [[starter Pokémon]] based on a bird, The first was {{p|Torchic}}.
*It was first thought the Piplup would keep its Japanese name, Pochama, as its American name. This was proven false soon after.
===Origin===
Piplup is based on a baby {{wp|penguin}}.
====Name origin====
Piplup may be derived from "Pip", a stage of growth in baby birds immediately before they hatch from the eggshell, and possibly "plop" or "plup", the sound of hitting the water.

Pochama may be derived from 坊っちゃま ''botchama'', meaning {{wp|child}}, with the ''P'' perhaps coming from ''{{wp|penguin}}''. It may also be based on ぽちゃぽちゃ ''pochapocha'', which means either splashing in water or having a plump appearance. Alternatively, it may be derived from おぼっちゃま ''obotchama'', a term that refers to children with wealthy parents.

'''Solidad''' (Japanese: '''サオリ''' ''Saori'') is a [[Pokémon Coordinator]] from [[Pewter City]] who competed against {{an|May}} in the Kanto Grand Festival, which she won. She is voiced by 田中理恵 ''Rie Tanaka'' in Japanese, [[Sarah Natochenny]] in English, ''Cristina Hernández'' in Latin American Spanish and [[Gilmara Sanches]] in Brazilian Portuguese.

She first appears in ''[[AG179|May, We Harley Drew'd Ya]]'', and is already acquainted with [[Brock]] (both of them are from Pewter City), [[Drew]], and [[Harley]]. She beat [[Drew's Roserade|Drew's Roselia]] in his first [[Pokémon Contest]], which caused him to cry. Since then they seem to have become friends. In an interesting comparison, May also cried after being defeated by Solidad.

Solidad is mature, wise, and has both May and Drew in quite high esteem. She was last known to be traveling in Johto and in [[DP078]] made a cameo appearance along with [[Harley]] and [[Drew]], watching May perform at the [[Wallace Cup]].

}}
'''Harley''' (Japanese: '''ハーリー''') is a [[Coordinator]] from [[Slateport City]]. His Japanese voice actor is 金丸淳一 ''[[Jun'ichi Kanemaru]]'', his English voice actors are [[Andrew Rannells]] ([[4Kids Entertainment]] dub) and [[Billy Regan]] ([[Pokémon USA]]/[[TAJ Productions]] dub) while his Brazilian Portuguese voice actor is [[Marcelo Campos]] (for [[AG103]]) and [[Dado Monteiro]] (other appearances).

Harley first competed against {{an|May}} in ''[[AG103|A Cacturne for the Worse!]]''. When the two Coordinators met, Harley was annoyed at May for several petty reasons: she was not familiar with his Cacturne, she called Cacturne "scary," and she spoke as if she was unsure of her statements, specifically regarding cookies Harley offered her. Later, the two competed in a [[Contest]], Harley using Cacturne and May using {{TP|May|Bulbasaur}}. In an attempt to publicly humiliate May, Harley played a recording of Max recalling a time when May was younger and she became stuck in water with a swarm of {{p|Tentacool}} and was extremely frightened. May was embarrassed, but went on to defeat Harley.

Months later, Harley and May met up again in the episodes ''[[AG121|Hi Ho Silver Wind!]]'', ''[[AG122|Deceit and Assist!]]'', and ''[[AG123|Rhapsody in Drew!]]''. Harley pretended that he was friends with May, and she initially believed him. He gave her "advice" to have her {{TP|May|Skitty}} use its {{m|Assist}} move repeatedly to make a good appeal; this resulted in Skitty becoming confused after using Bulbasaur's {{m|Petal Dance}}, having to {{m|DoubleSlap}} itself out of confusion. Meanwhile, [[Drew]] watched Harley, noticing how he tricked May. Later, May realized Harley's ploy, and soon the two were to battle once again. This time, it was Harley's Cacturne and {{p|Banette}} versus May's {{TP|May|Beautifly}} and Bulbasaur. May won this battle as well, and progressed further into the tournament.

Harley tended to use nicknames for May behind her back. The first was ''Meno-chan'' (English equivalent: ''Miss Tent'') after embarrassing her with the Tentacool story. The second was ''Kamo-chan'', referring to the word often used at the end of May's sentences in Japanese that can imply unsureness.
[[Image:Harleyharuka.png|175px|left|thumb|Harley crossdressing as {{an|May}}]]
Harley has a rather peculiar personality. He is undeniably flamboyant, wearing an outfit similar in appearance to Cacturne. He has very effeminate mannerisms, which include wiggling his hips as he walks and using あたし ''atashi'', the Japanese feminine version of ''I''. He also has a tendency to use select English words intermixed with his normal Japanese speech; for example, he calls Cacturne and Banette ''my buddies'' and tells May ''good morning''. In the Latin-American dub, this is replaced by using Latin-American slang and allusions to local urban culture; for example, he sings a song by the Mexican showman Juan Gabriel in the Grand Festival, as his Octillery dances in the flames. Another example of his feminine side is in ''[[AG179|May, We Harley Drew'd Ya!]]'' where Harley cross-dresses as {{an|May}}, much to May's embarrassment and Solidad's amusement.

As evidenced by his Contest performances, Harley is extremely scheming, and will attempt to trick or ruin his opponent in order to win.

He has [[Contest Pass]]es to compete in [[Hoenn]], [[Kanto]], and assumably now [[Johto]] as well.

In [[DP076]], he and Wigglytuff appeared in a flashback. Then Harley, [[Solidad]] and [[Drew]] made a cameo appearence in [[DP078]], watching May perform in the [[Wallace Cup]].

'''Drew''' (Japanese: '''シュウ''' ''Shū'') is a [[Pokémon Coordinator]] from [[LaRousse City]] and {{an|May|May's}} greatest rival. He is voiced by 斎賀みつき ''Mitsuki Saiga'' in Japanese, [[Pete Zarustica]] ([[4Kids]] dub) and [[Bill Rogers]] ([[Pokémon USA]]/[[TAJ Productions]] dub) in English, [[Vagner Fagundes]] ([[AG033]]-[[AG035]]) and [[Thiago Longo]] ([[AG050]]-present) in Brazilian Portuguese and ''Irwin Daayán'' in Latin American Spanish.

==History==

Drew made his debut appearance in ''[[AG033|Now that's Flower Power!]]''. Like [[Ash Ketchum|Ash's]] main rival, [[Gary Oak|Gary]], Drew is portrayed as being confident, critical, and popular among his supporters, though generally not as overly insulting as Gary initially was.

When Drew had participated in his very first contest, he had lost badly to a strong coordinator named [[Solidad]]. She said the loss was so heart-breaking for him it had even made him cry. Though he had suffered a defeat in his first contest, he endeavored to become a better coordinator and has succeeded to a good extent. He used to be very prone to nervousness when he started his career as a {{Pokemon|coordinator}}.

He used to taunt May when he first met her because she used to be like him when he first started out. Even though his comments and attitude may have angered May, he still provides a helping hand whenever she needs it. Drew’s skills have been a continuing inspiration for May to better herself as a coordinator.

When Drew participated at the [[Slateport City]] Contest in ''[[AG035|Win, Lose or Drew!]]'', he and his [[Drew's Roserade|Roselia]] defeated May and her {{TP|May|Beautifly}}, but went on to lose to {{ho|Robert}} and his {{p|Milotic}}. Drew shows up again in ''[[AG050|Pros and Con Artists]]'' for the [[Fallarbor Town]] [[Contest]]. During the contest, however, he loses to [[Grace]] and her {{p|Medicham}}. Following the contest, Drew congratulates the winner, May, by giving her a rose. The gesture (which is repeated in later encounters) is seen by some fans to be a hint towards a [[ContestShipping|romantic relationship]] between the two but no direct hints have been shown.

Notably, Drew made it to the finals of the [[Hoenn]] [[Grand Festival]] in ''[[AG123|Rhapsody in Drew]]'' by beating May in the semi-finals. However, he lost in the finals to {{ho|Robert}}, who also beat him in the [[Slateport City]] contest, and was placed second.

Afterwards he decided to go for the Contests in the [[Kanto|Kanto Region]] along with May and their other rival, [[Harley]]. In ''[[AG179|May, We Harley Drew'd Ya!]]'', he was reunited with his old rival and friend [[Solidad]], who had defeated him a long time ago. During the [[Kanto]] Grand Festival, he lost to May in the semi-finals and was placed in the Top 4.

[[Image:184.jpg|thumb|left|Drew's cameo with [[Harley]] in the background.]]In ''[[AG186|The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing]]'', he said he would be traveling to [[Johto]] to participate in the contests in that region. He has the [[Contest Pass]]es to compete in Hoenn, Kanto and Johto as well and as of [[DP078]] he had made cameo appearances in a [[DP076]] flashback, watching {{an|May}} perform at the [[Wallace Cup]].

'''Ash's Gligar''' (Japanese: '''サトシのグライガー''' ''Satoshi's Gliger'') is the fourth Pokémon [[captured Pokémon|captured]] by [[Ash Ketchum]] in the [[Sinnoh]] region. Its Japanese voice actor is 小西克幸 ''[[Katsuyuki Konishi]]''.

Ash caught Gligar in [[DP064]]. It and a {{TP|Paul|Gliscor}} had become trapped in a city after being blown there by a violent windstorm. Gliscor's attempts at using sonar to navigate out of the city were blocked by the tall buildings, and only served to attract more Gligar and the Pokémon soon formed a pack.

The pack survived by picking fruit from trees, and stealing food from humans. After Ash and his friends save the pack, Gligar decides to travel with Ash, allowing him to capture it.

Gligar seems to have habit of licking its lips and winking when appearing. It also has a tendency to crash land on top of Ash.

In [[DP066]] it is revealed that Gligar also bites Ash's head, like [[James']] [[TP|James|Victrebeel]], [[TP|James|Cacnea]], [[TP|James|Carnivine]].
==Trivia==
* Gligar is the second Pokémon of the {{type2|Flying}} Ash has captured in [[Sinnoh]].
* Gligar is also the third Flying-type Pokémon Ash has ever captured whose other type wasn't Normal, the other two being {{AP|Butterfree}} and {{AP|Charizard}}.
* Gligar is Ash's third {{type2|Ground}}, right after [[Ash's Donphan|Donphan]] and [[Ash's Larvitar|Larvitar]], though Larvitar wasn't technically his.
* Ash's capture of Gligar brings another {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} to the group in the [[Diamond & Pearl series]], the others being [[Dawn's Ambipom|Aipom]] and {{TP|Brock|Sudowoodo}}.
* Gligar is the only Pokémon in the party of Ash and his friends that is not a Pokémon in the [[Sinnoh Dex]]. [[Jessie]], however, has {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}} and {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}.
* Gligar's means of capture is similar to [[Ash's Squirtle]], in that it was part of a group of Pokémon of its species causing trouble for a town, joined because it wanted to go with Ash, filled Ash's [[party]] with six members, and was captured shortly before Ash met up with the region's third [[Gym Leader]].
* Ash's Gligar appears on [[Route 215]], a route where it is possible to catch Gligar via the [[dongle method]] using [[Pokémon Emerald]].
* Gligar is the 50th Pokémon species Ash has owned counting {{AP|Larvitar}}, {{AP|Haunter}}, and {{AP|Raticate}}.
* Gligar is the first Pokémon caught by Ash to debut with no revealed attacks.

'''Honchkrow''' (Japanese: '''ドンカラス''' ''Donkarasu'') is a {{2t|Dark|Flying}}-type Pokémon.

=Biology=
==Physiology==
Honchkrow is a black bird Pokémon roughly twice the size of its pre-evolution, Murkrow. Honchkrow has red tail feathers and the underside of its wings are partially red. Honchkrow has a feathery collar that resembles a long white beard. Honchkrow has a straight, yellow beak, circular eyes with red pupils, and a feather crest that resembles a [[wp:Fedora (hat)|fedora hat]].
===Gender differences===
None.

===Special abilities===

==Behavior==
Honchkrow have been known to organize flocks of Murkrow. These flocks have been seen flying at night. The purpose of the flocks is unclear, but they are known to collect food for the Honchkrow that organized them. Honchkrow normally spend the daytime hours tending to their feathers in solitude.

==Habitat==
==Diet==
''Main article: [[Pokémon food]]''

=In the anime=
It appears in [[The Rise of Darkrai]], using {{m|Defog}} by command of its trainer in order to clean up the fog which engulfed the surroundings of Alamos City, but it didn't work due to the unnatural origins of the fog.

Another one will appear in [[DP066]]. (Maybe Paul's as he was "controlling" it)

==Origin==
Honchkrow is based off of a [[wp:crow|crow]] with aspects of a [[wp:Crime boss|leader of a criminal organization]]. The white beard and wide-brimmed hat may also be in reference to the [[wp:Norse god|Norse god]] [[wp:Odin|Odin]].

===Name origin===
Its name is a combination of "honcho", a leader or boss, and "crow".
''Don'' is Spanish for ''lord'' and is a title for Mafia leaders, while ''karasu'' is Japanese for ''crow''. So ''Donkarasu'' literally means "Lord of crows".
Its German name, Kramshef, comes from {{tt|Krähe|crow}}. Its French name, Corboss, comes from {{tt|corbeau|crow}} and ''boss''.
