Talk:List of Pokémon by animated series debut

Vi:

Those that didn't debut yet: N/A for the episode box. Those which have debuted, but only in a movie: asterisk linking to the page of the movie in question. <s>Non-legendaries which debuted in a movie but later appeared in the main anime: main anime episode number only. Legendaries which debuted in a movie and later appeared in the main anime: episode number of anime debut followed by an asterisk linking to the movie debut.</s> '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 07:42, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
:Current standard: Any Pokémon which debuts in a movie, special episode, or Pikachu short: main anime episode number followed by an asterisk linking to the movie, special episode, or Pikachu short. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 03:10, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

== Pikachu Shorts ==

Do they count too?--[[User:Gyarachu|Gyarachu]] 20:57, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

== Specials ==

What about the specials and made-for-TV movies, like Legend of Thunder? [[User:Lucentas|Lucentas]] 20:59, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
:That's where the issue lies. For Raikou, really. LOT kinda counts like a movie for this purpose, so make it the asterisk. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 05:10, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

== Mewtwo ==

Does Mewtwo's appearance in ''[[EP063|Battle of the Badge]]'' count, as it was wearing armour? If not, when is it first seen without armour, [[EP065|when it destroys Team Rocket's headquaters]], or in the first movie? [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] 21:06, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
:Not a flashback, not a TV, so yes. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 05:10, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

== this is odd ==

If the title of the article is "List of Pokémon by anime debut" then why does it have a list of Pokémon with their anime debut right next to them??? "By" means "in order of" in this context. We need to re-order it or rename it. --[[User:RexRacer|'''Rex]][[Quilava (Pokémon)|Racer''']] [[User talk:RexRacer|'''''-talk''''']] 22:56, 18 December 2008 (UTC)

:While the list is sortable, it appears to simply be a text sort. i.e. * for movies at the top, followed by AG, then DP, ''then'' EP for the original series. At least could that be fixed? (Sorry, I don't know how) [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] 08:29, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
::The only idea I have is to create a third "airing order" column with straight numerals for easy sorting. However, I've asked TTE for help; hopefully he'll be able to come up with something more streamlined. --[[User:Martonimos|Marton]]([[wp:Chanukah|I'm Jewish]])[[User talk:Martonimos|imos]] 08:36, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
:::Hopefully, adding and commenting out the numerical order before the linked text will get it to sort properly. The thing is, someone'll have to go through and add them all. --[[User:Martonimos|Marton]]([[wp:Chanukah|I'm Jewish]])[[User talk:Martonimos|imos]] 23:42, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

== Chatot in AG183 ==

It says that Chatot was in AG183. I've seen that episode, and I don't remember a Chatot. I went to AG183's page. It doesn't say anything about a Chatot.--[[User:Pokelova|PokelovaAni393MS.png‎]] 09:18, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
: It's suppose to be [[AG184]]....--[[Charizard (Pokémon)|Force]] [[User:Force Fire|''Fire'']] [[User talk:Force Fire|''talk'']] 09:21, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

== Episode Pages ==

''Another'' question. Should the episode pages be updated to match this list, as many of them include Pokémon in different episodes, e.g. [[EP001]] lists {{p|Gengar}} in the debuts section (although it does point out that it debuted on TV) [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] 09:05, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

== Splitting ==

Anyone think the list should be divided into sub-sections? Its just too huge. [[User:Jmath|'''Jm''']][[User talk:Jmath|'''a''']][[Special:Contributions/Jmath|'''th''']] 20:50, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

== Mewtwo==
Wasn't the episode with the 8th gym battle Mewto`s debut? --×[[User talk:Impoleon xy|'''Impoleon xy''']]× 16:58, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
:No, but it certainly was Mew''two'''s debut. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 17:07, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
::Haha. -.- Sorry for that little mistake. --×[[User talk:Impoleon xy|'''Impoleon xy''']]× 17:08, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

== would it count? ==

Of course they aren't real, but wouldn't the mechanical charizard, Venusaur, Blastoise, Pikachu, Rhydon, Zapdos, Moltres, Kabutops in EP017 count as an anime debut?--[[User:Force Fire|FF]]([[Special:Contributions/Force Fire|edits]]•[[User talk:Force Fire|talk]]) 07:20, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

== I'm curious . . . ==

. . . I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to start an article about Pokémon that debut before their respective generation. The page would be big enough. All we would have to do is gather the information in chronological order of course and make sort of a history page about it. If you think a whole page is unnecesarry we could implement it into this-> [[History of Pokémon|♫]] It would take time but it would probably become a decent sized article and we could make a few links to it {{p|Marill|h}}{{p|Azurill|e}}{{p|Wailmer|r}}{{p|Buizel|e}} {{p|Manaphy|a}}{{p|Donphan|n}}{{p|Kecleon|d}} {{p|Munchlax|t}}{{p|Electivire|h}}{{p|Ho-Oh|e}}{{p|Lugia|r}}{{p|Slowking|e}}.[[User:Landfish7| Land]][[User talk:Landfish7|fish]]7 21:20, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

== Sandile ==

He's listed twice, once with Waruvile's sprite. I'd fix it but its too long for my browser.--[[User:Burgundy|Burg]][[User talk: Burgundy|undy]] 19:49, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

== How About Two Tables? ==

One for physical debuts, and one for actual debuts, I think this would be ''much'' better. Either like this, or similar, or one table listed in a different section:
<div style="float:left">
{| {{bluetable2|c sortable}} align="center"
|- style="background: #ccf;"
! #

:Perhaps instead of two tables, there could just be two columns? --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 06:54, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
::I agree, that would be a lot better (why didn't I think of that...) '''X'''[[User:Vuvuzela2010|'''Vuvuzela2010''']]'''X''' 14:44, 19 February 2011 (UTC)

I think it would be cool to have either another column or another page for the first time a Pokémon depiction appears on screen in the anime. For example, in ''[[EP001|Pokemon! I Choose You]]'' we see decorations in Ash's room of Pokémon like {{p|Snorlax}}, {{p|Poliwag}}, and {{p|Clefairy}}. Another example is in ''[[EP013|Mystery at the Lighthouse]]'', we see Bill inside the {{p|Kabuto}} costume. [[User:Vi|Vi]] ([[User talk:Vi|talk]]) 21:00, 6 February 2025 (UTC)

==Order==
Since this page is a list of Pokémon by anime debut, shouldn't they be in that order rather than NDex order? I know it is sortable, but it would make more sense to sort them this way, since it says that it is in the title. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 08:32, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
:Agree. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 10:08, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
:It might also help to split the table into seasons/sagas, since a single giant table with a single column is a little unweldly...[[User:PDL|PDL]] 01:27, 18 February 2011 (UTC). I think Pokémon should be listed by their debut. [[User:ReaNintendo|ReaNintendo]] 13:14, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

==Does Haxours's appearence really count?==
Since it's been made clear at the top of the page that the list only counts actual physical appearences, Haxours's appearences have so far only been in dreams and imagine spots. Fraxure had the benefit of appearing in a flashback. I just want it to be consistant.[[User:PDL|PDL]] 01:30, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
:You're right, our current (ridiculous) definition means that they both shouldnt be there (flashbacks don't count either.)
:(user points to ''How About Two Tables?'' section above. : )
'''X'''[[User:Vuvuzela2010|'''Vuvuzela2010''']]'''X''' 10:04, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
::1)I'd like to point out that both Fraxure and Haxuros appeared in a dream that was manufested into reality. 2)It was a good enough debute for them to start appearing in the opening. [[User:05308|Diamond]] [[Lanturn (Pokémon)|Lanturn]] [[User talk:05308|CodeName: 05308]] 10:09, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
:::Hmmm... I forgot about that. Having said that, the text on the page does state that:
:::''This list counts only actual appearances as official. Pokémon which appear on TV in the anime or in another manner before debuting in physical form, such as Nidorino and Gengar in EP001, count as debuting when they physically appear, not when they are first seen.''
:::Since as far as I can remember, they both only appeared in Iris's imagination, and in flashbacks, they are best kept hidden untill someone changes this rule (If an Admin is reading this, please do) '''X'''[[User:Vuvuzela2010|'''Vuvuzela2010''']]'''X''' 10:18, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

== Menu sprites for Generation VI Pokémon needed ==

Anyone please replace these question mark menu sprites to menu sprites of Generation VI Pokémon please? [[User:Cinday123|Cinday123]] ([[User talk:Cinday123|talk]]) 10:18, 11 November 2013 (UTC)

== Fantasy ==

So that includes Pokémon debuted in an episode but only in a fantasy? --[[User:Cinday123|Cinday123]] ''([[User talk:Cinday123|Talk]])'' 07:39, 21 February 2014 (UTC)

== Gen7 form differences ==

All the individual forms are listed for some Gen7 Pokémon (Oricorio, Lycanroc, Wishiwashi, Minior and Magearna) but not for Silvally, Solgaleo or Lunala. Is there any reason for this? Should the others be added? [[User:Kidburla|Kidburla]] ([[User talk:Kidburla|talk]]) 21:50, 24 December 2016 (UTC)
:I think Silvally shouldn't be listed for pretty much the same reason as Arceus: there's about a dozen and a half forms that don't really differ significantly, and the odds are poor that the anime will go out of its way to show every last one of them. As for Solgaleo and Lunala, I dunno. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 04:24, 25 December 2016 (UTC)

== Inconsistency ==

I’ve been looking around a bit, and I've noticed this site is really inconsistent as to what counts as an actual Pokémon debut, primarily when it comes to physical appearance versus non-physical, fake, or fantasy appearances. For instance: {{p|Mew}}'s main anime debut is considered to be ''[[SM042|Alola, Kanto!]]''. While it previously appeared in ''[[DP092|A Lean Mean Team Rocket Machine!]]'', we're apparently not counting that appearance because it was in a fantasy. Meanwhile, the English dub debut of {{p|Dratini}} is considered to be ''[[EP037|Ditto's Mysterious Mansion]]'' rather than ''[[EP251|Beauty is Skin Deep]]'', despite the fact the former was in a fantasy. [[User:TheFatPanda|TheFatPanda]] ([[User talk:TheFatPanda|talk]]) 13:54, 15 August 2019 (UTC)

:Agreed. I'd like to know what the standard is for this article as well. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 00:05, 16 August 2019 (UTC)
::In that case, Dratini had already appeared in EP035, which was banned in the US. The EP037 "debut" is noting that it's the first time it has appeared outside of Japan (another example is Porygon for EP047).--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 05:14, 16 August 2019 (UTC)
:::Oh, okay. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 20:28, 18 August 2019 (UTC)

== Order by episode ==

Shouldn't this be ordered by episode and not just anime? [[User:FireLizard|FireLizard]] ([[User talk:FireLizard|talk]]) 21:34, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
: You'll need to be more descriptive in your question, if you click on the episode header it does sort by anime episode. --[[User:Spriteit|Spriteit]] ([[User talk:Spriteit|talk]]) 00:06, 30 May 2020 (UTC)

==Dynamax and Totem==
I was looking through the list and I was wondering, should Dynamax and Totem Pokemon really be included here? Totem Pokemon are just slightly larger than their regular form, other than the Totem Togedemaru, they aren't much different. While Dynamaxing can be applied to all pokemon (well, those available in the galar games), sans Zacian, Zamazenta, and Eternatus, and pokemon that do undergo this don't have drastic changes in their appearance, unlike the Mega and Gigantamax forms. [[User:Animaltamer7|Animaltamer7]] ([[User talk:Animaltamer7|talk]]) 11:12, 14 May 2021 (UTC)
:Yes, I also agree that the Dynamax sections are unnecessary. At some point, every Pokémon may have a Dynamax section if this is continued. --[[User:TotallyTob|'''T'''otally'''T'''ob]] 21:42, 1 September 2022 (UTC)
::There's not ''that'' many Totem and Dynamax Pokémon that have appeared in the anime. Some users might find it interesting to see which ones have appeared and when they debuted. I think it could potentially do more harm than good to take them out. [[User:Landfish7|'''Land''']][[User talk:Landfish7|'''fish7''']] 04:49, 3 September 2022 (UTC)

== [[Terastal phenomenon|Terastallization]] ==

Why should there be a section on this especially when that’s not a different form unlike say Mega Evolution? [[User:Pikmin3WiiU|Pikmin 3]] [[User talk:Pikmin3WiiU|Wii U]] 00:41, 3 February 2025 (UTC)
:Not sure I understand. I don't see a section for Terastallization, and Megas ''are'' also listed on this page. [[User:Landfish7|'''Land''']][[User talk:Landfish7|'''fish7''']] 13:22, 3 February 2025 (UTC)
::There is a section on Tera Bug {{p|Teddiursa}} and Tera Ice {{p|Altaria}}. [[User:Pikmin3WiiU|Pikmin 3]] [[User talk:Pikmin3WiiU|Wii U]] 15:30, 3 February 2025 (UTC)

The '''Cerise Research Laboratory''' (Japanese: '''サクラギ{{tt|研究所|けんきゅうしょ}}''' ''Sakuragi Institute''), or the '''Cerise Laboratory''' for short, is an {{pkmn|anime}}-exclusive {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} research laboratory located in [[Vermilion City]] in the [[Kanto]] [[region]]. It is directed by [[Professor Cerise]], who works there with his [[Professors' aides|research assistants]] [[Chrysa]] and [[Ren]]. It also serves as {{Ash}} and [[Goh]]'s base of operations during ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''.

==Structure==
A domed area known as '''Cerise Park''' (Japanese: '''サクラギパーク''' ''Sakuragi Park'') is located inside the lab. Ash and Goh keep their [[caught Pokémon]] there whenever they are not on a research mission.

In ''[[JN002|Legend? Go! Friends? Go!]]'', the Cerise Laboratory officially opened as a Pokémon research facility. However, the building itself is significantly older and was abandoned for a time, as revealed in ''[[JN016|A Chilling Curse!]]''. Three years prior, a {{AP|Gengar}} haunted the facility after it was abandoned by [[Gengar's former Trainer|its former Trainer]]. Professor Cerise was well aware of the haunting rumors when he purchased the building but was unfazed by it. The occurrences soon subsided once the Gengar gave up trying to scare him. However, in ''[[JN011|Best Friend...Worst Nightmare!]]'', the supernatural occurrences resumed, likely because of new arrivals like Ash and Goh taking residence there. Eventually, Ash {{pkmn2|caught}} the Gengar.

In ''[[JN023|Panic in the Park!]]'', as stated by Professor Cerise, the Pokémon created their own unique habitats just like in the real world. In [[JN107|some instances]], a Pokémon from another habitat ended up invading the habitat of others, creating an imbalance and some problems which had to be solved by those responsible for taking care of the Pokémon in place. Some Pokémon are responsible for the food, especially {{TP|Goh|Raichu}}, and others for taking care of the order, something done by {{TP|Professor Cerise|Yamper}}.

== Source for the kyerum ==

There's has been a leaker which has been correct so far during the air of "Aim to Be a Pokémon Master", wasn't sure how they'll show it so I put it as invisible until it's confirmed in the episode.(Here's the link: https://twitter.com/GryphonCool/status/1619602917815889925) ([[User:QuickJolteon|QuickJolteon]] ([[User talk:QuickJolteon|talk]]) 18:35, 29 January 2023 (UTC))

==Anime Reference==

Hello! Hope you're doing well. Regarding my latest edits, I wanted to clarify my point of view on the subject. I think the reference about the anime is clear in Pokémon Yellow (a game heavily inspired by the events of the anime), but unlikely in HG&SS, for as those games have had many other Pokémon added in that area (not just Pidgeotto and Pidgey). Hence, I am not sure if that would be a true reference in the remakes. [[User:Gust4vo|Gust4vo]] ([[User talk:Gust4vo|talk]]) 21:26, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
:I understand. Thanks for the explanation. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 22:12, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

== Ash's Pidgeot ==

Was it explicitly stated that Pidgeot returned to Ash's ownership? Keep in mind that Ash has reunited with all of his released Pokémon at some point, but only two of them ever returned to his team, even if only for a brief amount of time (Goodra and Naganadel). [[User:PokemonMasterJamal3|PokemonMasterJamal3]] ([[User talk:PokemonMasterJamal3|talk]]) 10:44, 24 March 2023 (UTC)

== EP099 ==

I really need to talk about this because it was something that was bothering me.

I have noticed you have been undoing my edits recently for EP099, and I feel the reasons you gave are insufficient and make no sense.

The first one in question is the Australian release unedited. My reason for editing the page is because I felt like the original sounded like the Australian versions were edited like the later Japanese releases. You undid my edit, saying it was mentioned above. I feel like the reasoning given was too vague, and no where does it say the Australian releases were unedited. It wasn't cut, yes, but it never said anything about it being edited.

And the most recent change I made a few days ago is regarding Lorelei's name being changed to Prima. My reasoning for rewording that part is because there was never a source about that, only speculation. I added that 4Kids may not realize that Lorelei already had an English name. But you also undid my edit, suggesting it was only speculation. This didn't make any sense to me because the syllable excuse is just as speculative. I am also questioning why it's wrong to mention anything speculative, but mentioning 4Kids changing her name because of lip flaps as fact without a source is okay?

I know SnorlaxMonster edited the page to match what I was trying to convey (with the same reasoning) and I am perfectly happy with the state of the page now, but I still wasn't happy that you undid my edits as if my reasoning was illegitimate. I didn't want to undo any of your edits, which is why I wanted to talk to you about it as it has bothered me for a while.[[User:JyuRaposa|JyuRaposa]] ([[User talk:JyuRaposa|talk]]) 07:34, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

== EP225 ==
Hello! I noticed that you undid my revision for EP225 of the Trivia I added. Are you able to recall a time that a Pokémon does an anime move error that is stated to be an error by someone in-universe? I forgot to mention that it also occurs in the ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'' special but on the other hand, the Pokémon that does said error are clearly artificial Pokémon. [[User:Nikuriku|Nikuriku]], '''Bulbapedia and Archives Junior Administrator''' ([[User talk:Nikuriku|talk]]) 02:59, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
:In addition to that special, there is also a SM episode where a Pokémon's inability to learn a certain move is acknowledged. I figured three exceptions to the rule didn't count as trivia worthy. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 07:55, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
:: Which Pokémon and move was this again? The only two incidents in the SM anime I can think of is acknowledging Rowlet not being able to use Bullet Seed (which it doesn't use) and Nebby using Supersonic (I'm not sure if anyone mentions that Nebby cannot use Supersonic). I personally believe that Mirage Pokémon special can be not counted considering that the Pokémon in question were artificial and were designed to exactly use those moves. [[User:Nikuriku|Nikuriku]], '''Bulbapedia and Archives Junior Administrator''' ([[User talk:Nikuriku|talk]]) 09:13, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
:::I was referring to Rowlet. And the special still counts, as it acknowledges a Pokémon's inability to learn a certain move, regardless of the Pokémon being artificial or not. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 10:01, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
:::: I wouldn't really count the Rowlet one considering that it wasn't like he really used the move but for the Mirage Pokémon special, I'll quickly ask some of the moderators to see what they think. On another note, would it be better to reword the Trivia for AG170? I can see where you are coming from but at the same time, I think AG170 was really the only time Ash's Tauros was part of his active party for anything that isn't battling or tournaments. I count the Orange League as a Championship battle but I do agree that it isn't a tournament and could have been worded better. [[User:Nikuriku|Nikuriku]], '''Bulbapedia and Archives Junior Administrator''' ([[User talk:Nikuriku|talk]]) 10:07, 3 August 2023 (UTC)

== Recent undoing ==
Hi Finnish! I noticed you've been quite active with editing some of my recent edits which I appreciate a lot and you're doing a good job! However, I've noticed you have been undoing some very minor edits of mine recently which are mostly just removing the overuse of "then". Are you able to tell me why you are undoing some of my more minor edits? Also, do NOT undo the TCG edits I am doing as I talked to MaverickNate about their structure and I need to fix those ones myself due to an error I made. [[User:Nikuriku|Nikuriku]], '''Bulbapedia and Archives Junior Administrator''' ([[User talk:Nikuriku|talk]]) 13:43, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
:I've simply felt that the sentence structure is better in those cases when the word "then" is used. For example, [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=JN137&diff=prev&oldid=3759447 here] the removal of the word implies that the chamber was already filled with cold air, when it was only filled with cold air afterwards. I can try to replaces those "thens" with other words, though, if you want. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 13:52, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
:: That would be quite good if possible! I'm mostly removing "then" in some cases as some pages had as much as 39 instances of "then" being used a lot. The most notable pet peeve is when sentences start with something like "Ash then" or sentences go "Pikachu then uses Thunderbolt only for Raichu to then dodge before then using Iron Tail". I have noticed that your undos haven't been too constructive and that your editing is a lot better when you attempt to reword it yourself, so I would definitely recommend trying to reword things as you have been doing quite well so far today. There are obvious exceptions to when you shouldn't undo but based on your editing, I definitely encourage you to use other words! [[User:Nikuriku|Nikuriku]], '''Bulbapedia and Archives Junior Administrator''' ([[User talk:Nikuriku|talk]]) 13:58, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
:::Believe me, I've left many of your edits alone because removing the excessive use of that word is something I wholeheartedly support. It's just that sometimes, I feel the tense of the sentence suffers from the removal of the word. I'll try to work around it. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 14:02, 3 August 2023 (UTC)
:::: I had a look at your new revisions and they're looking pretty good! I'm giving you a heads-up that I'm going to edit some of the pages you undid and try to word them better on my end myself. By the time I'm done, hopefully the page is looking a lot better! I definitely feel that you're making a lot better progress when you edit it yourself rather than undo pages, so I wholeheartedly encourage you to try and reword things from here onwards and only use the undo button as a last resort.

::::::::I've been noting the unnecessary removals and have been more careful with what to remove and what not to remove recently.

[[User:Nikuriku|Nikuriku]], '''Bulbapedia and Archives Junior Administrator''' ([[User talk:Nikuriku|talk]]) 12:33, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
:::::::::"Correct" is subjective, and I feel we don't always see eye to eye which "thens" are okay to stay and which aren't. For example, "<character> then <verb>" makes it clear the action they're taking happens after the action from the previous sentence, not simultaneously. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 12:41, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
::::::::::Misworded what I meant as the use of "then" had nothing to do with what I was trying to say. When I meant correct, I was talking about using the undo button rather than editing a mistake manually. An example would be if someone made two edits being "Pikachu is Yellow" and "Raichu is Blue". The undo button would definitely be an issue as it removes the edit that is correct (Pikachu is Yellow) in the process of removing the wrong edit (Raichu is Blue). As for my edits, I'll be more careful in the future but feel free to message me if there is any frequent incorrect edits.

Sure, there was an exception, where more people joined in, but the trivia can be changed to say "in most episodes from this episode onward". In short, I feel it's repetitive to say Nidothing narrates the preview in every episode when the preview narrator is much more consistent than it was with Journeys.

== Drayton ==

Just to let you know, Drayton is the only member of the BB Elite Four who has a different team (besides levels) between his first battle and League Club rematch. The only difference is that his Archaludon has Dragon Pulse in the first match, and Draco Meteor in the rematch. I didn't know how to indicate this difference so I just left the page alone. -[[User:Minibug|Minibug]] ([[User talk:Minibug|talk]]) 17:33, 22 December 2023 (UTC)

Why do you think what I submitted was reaching it? The Pledging Tree and the presents are clearly a reference to Christmas. I know some may argue that the episode was going for a Valentine Day/ White Day route with Ash and Serena but the festival itself is in my eyes very Christmas-like and if that passage of text about Pikachu in Christmas lights in JN 94 qualifies as a Christmas mention, why this episode I cited don't? {{unsigned|Linooario64}}

== Hi there! ==

Hi! I have a few things I wanted to discuss regarding your [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Perrin&diff=3884800&oldid=3884797 recent] [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Perrin&diff=3892405&oldid=3892357 edits].

First, I wanted to convey that relatively new kinds of information that we don't normally include in articles, like what was removed in your recent edits, can have value and don't always need to be removed. Yes, info like this can be improved in many ways, but that doesn't diminish its potential value. If possible, it's better to improve the content instead of removing it outright. If you're just not sure you think it has value, you can always talk it out with whoever added it, or on the talk page of the article in question, just to get that other perspective.

Second, regarding your general editing habits, including edits like [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Exeggutor_Island&diff=3822646&oldid=3822642 these] [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Exeggutor_Island&diff=3827886&oldid=3827837 ones] as well, that it may be important to consider that if you need to make the same edit twice to a page (or even if you just feel the urge to do so), that this may signal the need to discuss the content on the relevant talk page or with the other user(s) involved.

Overall, using the tools the wiki gives us to discuss changes (edit summaries, talk pages, etc.) to best reach resolutions that are most agreeable to everyone, while possibly slowing down the pace of things, generally results in an experience more pleasurable for everyone. I hope you can take these things into consideration in your future editing. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me or another [[staff]] member. Otherwise, happy editing (and happy new year!) [[User:Landfish7|'''Land''']][[User talk:Landfish7|'''fish7''']] 06:10, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
:Oh and one more thing I'd like to suggest is adding cleanup tags and other {{cat|notice templates}} to pages/sections that you feel could use improvement, but may not have the time, energy, or know-how to resolve in the moment, rather than removing the content entirely or reverting it outright. Hope this helps! [[User:Landfish7|'''Land''']][[User talk:Landfish7|'''fish7''']] 07:13, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
::1) Okay. I'll try to get used to it.
::2) I had completely forgotten about that reversion already. Didn't feel it was notable. I consider the situation a problem if a third reversion would be required, at which point I start resorting to talk pages.
::3) I am aware of the tools I can use, and I tend to use them whenever I feel it is necessary.

== Pokemon World Tournament Junior Cup/Gym Leaders ==

https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Pok%C3%A9mon_World_Tournament&action=edit&undoafter=3897245&undo=3897313

I had forgotten how inconvenient this is.

''Two separate competitions.''

Yes, my dear, that's exactly why one is called the Junior Cup and the other isn't. Let me explain, "Junior Cup" is a term used for smaller competitions of larger competitions that are generally mostly for children or teenagers (exactly the audience that participated in the Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup). You can search the term on Google if you prefer.

Furthermore, all the other information I included came from the episodes themselves, Cynthia and Alder participated in the event as part of the team, one in the preparation and dismantling of the event and the other as a commentator. This was said and shown in the episodes themselves.

Cynthia said that the event is open to everyone in the same episode where she met Ash in Unova. I check the information directly from the Japanese episodes. So what exactly is the point of undoing absolutely everything from that edit?

Now I would ask you where it was said that the Tournament that Ash and company participated in Unova is not related to the PWT, but I think that would be too much, right?

Regarding the edit of the Gym Leader page, I have already expressly spoken to an admin that if I can increase a page instead of creating another, I am free. So it would be nice for you to use something other than your personal opinion to undo an almost 2-hour edit of something that was used to try to put more content on the page.

I'm not even going to undo the edits, since the last thing I want is to get into an edit war, but I'm leaving my opinion here.--{{unsigned|Hikaru Wazana}}
:No need to be rude or sarcastic, please. Regarding the PWT, I do not recall anyone during that arc stating out loud that the Junior Cup is directly related to the main tournament in anything but name. As for the Gym Leader edit, I was not aware that you had admin permission for expanding the page to such a degree. At that moment, I just felt that listing all the current Gym Leaders in the anime like that would be excessive. And as far as I'm concerned, edit war does not start until one side makes multiple, repeated reversions. So in case you want to return those edits, go ahead, and I'll edit them in ways that don't involve total reversion. PS. This is just a personal preference, but the page is easier to read for the editor if you leave an empty row between a paragraph and the next section header. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 20:35, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

==Images==

Please do not add "official artwork from" to gallery tables when the when the gallery section header is already "artwork". 
Please do not change "model" to "VS Model". They aren't a thing that exists, it's just their pose when they begin a battle, using their existing model used throughout every instance in the game. --[[User:Lewtwo|Lewtwo]] ([[User talk:Lewtwo|talk]]) 20:15, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
:"Official artwork from" is a thing that's always been present in galleries. It specifies what kind of artwork it is. And "VS model" is a thing that's used to specify the 3D models we see what a Trainer in a 3D Pokémon game is challenged to a battle, to differentiate them from overworld and in-battle models. I feel you're making this a much bigger problem than it actually is. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 20:20, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
:: '''-''' The overworld and in-battle models have been the same since LGPE, therefore, there is no distinction. Currently, the way it reads is as if the model within the battle, when you're '''"VS"''' them, is different to how it usually is, which is not true. Calling it '''"model"''' simply avoids confusion, and is clear, direct, and to the point. '''"VS Model"''' is also a fan-made term that does not actually exist within the context of the series. '''-''' '''"Official artwork from"''' is not needed, because the gallery sections have changed since the site began. They now have their own '''artwork''' sub-heading, which means we do not need to specify that it is artwork in a table exclusively for artwork. We only do not upload unofficial or fan-made images on anything that isn't a Project Fandom page, which means that we do not need to specify that the artwork is '''official.''' --[[User:Lewtwo|Lewtwo]] ([[User talk:Lewtwo|talk]]) 20:31, 5 January 2024 (UTC)

::::Looking at [[Special:Diff/3898892|Crispin]], I'd say that I don't know how "official" does anything very useful (and at that point, "artwork" also becomes redundant). As far as the model, I think it would be entirely fair to specify that it's the model in their VS pose or battle or something. Y'all can work out something you like, but I don't think it fundamentally has to be just "model". [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 23:37, 5 January 2024 (UTC)

== Masters appearances ordering ==

Hey, about the Masters appearances sections: it seems like you've got the general hang of it, but I wanted to talk about the ordering of main story areas. When I was originally doing my big reorganization of Masters quotes pages a year ago, I ordered them as PML Arc → Villain Arc → Legendary Adventures, since that was the order that those sections were added to the main story. However, later on, I realized that this organization doesn't entirely make sense, since all Legendary Adventures stories take place before the Villain Arc chronologically, and with the exception of Lurking Shadow, they were all added to Legendary Adventures before the corresponding villain arc chapter. So, I decided to start moving Legendary Adventures quotes above Villain Arc quotes, and I've been ordering the story appearances sections with Legendary Adventures areas above Villain Arc areas.

The reason I mention all this is because I noticed you've made a couple edits where you move Villain Arc areas above Legendary Adventures areas in the story appearances list, and I wanted to make sure we're both on the same page with the intended order instead of just flat reverting your edits. So, with all that said, do you have any reasons why Villain Arc areas should be listed first, or are you okay with leaving legendary event/Legendary Adventures areas above them? [[User:Storm Aurora|'''Storm Aurora''']] ([[User talk:Storm Aurora|talk]]) 22:06, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
:I have absolutely no problem with your suggested method of ordering the events. In fact, when I moved a couple Legendary Adventures areas below the Villain Arc areas, I eventually realized they didn't chronologically fit there and moved them back soon after. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 22:09, 30 January 2024 (UTC)
::Gotcha, gotcha. I saw you hadn't moved it back on Ethan's page, so I was worried it might still be there on others.
::As an aside, the <code><nowiki>__TOC__</nowiki></code> line only needs to be included above an anchor if the anchor is above the first section on the page. It's a macro(?) that sets the position of the table of contents, which is automatically put above the first section if the page has four or more sections. The issue I discovered was that if there are anchors above the first section, those anchors brought me to the table of contents instead of the first section. So, by forcing the table of contents to appear above the anchors, the anchors brought me to the first section, as I intended. So that's why it's there, and it doesn't need to be above every section.

== Masters EX Summaries ==

Hi. I asked the opinion of some others after you removed content from an article twice. It is not only acceptable to include a short summary of the page you are directing readers to, but it actually preferred! By removing this content, the section not only became virtually ''un''informative, but also provided a worse reader experience for those learning about [[Jessie's Arbok]] but not knowledgeable about Master EX. The lead-in provided a quick gist of the content that can be found on the hatnote link, far beyond just saying "this exists". It's a pretty bold stance to remove content about Jessie's Arbok from the Jessie's Arbok page, so I will be adding the information back in. If you find that you still wish the content to be removed, feel free to bring the topic up on [[Bulbapedia:Project Sidegames]]' talk page, as removing it again would be your third time removing the content, and I don't think starting an edit war would be an effective use of anyone's time.

Please understand that there is a lot of information to be researched and written for [[Kecleon Shop]], and it is going to take a while to complete. I am trying my best [[User:CuteShaymin|CuteShaymin]] ([[User talk:CuteShaymin|talk]]) 22:03, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
:Perhaps instead of making multiple edits, you could try and do more edits to the page in one go--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]], Junior Admin Bulbapedia ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 22:30, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

== BP:LLT ==

Hey, just wanted to tell you about the page [[Bulbapedia:List of link templates]] in case you were not aware of it; it feels helpful to [[special:diff/3986439|suggest]] this to new editors as it has examples instead of [[:Category:Link templates]] which just has a list. → [[User:SuperPikaPool13|Pika]][[User talk:SuperPikaPool13|Tepig]][[Special:Contribs/SuperPikaPool13|999]] 18:09, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
:Ah, gotcha. Thanks. I'll remember that for future cases. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 18:11, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

== Friede's journey ==

Orla questions what Friede will do from now on and Friede says that he has an idea of where to go, and leaves her in charge of Brave Asagi. His next scene is him looking at Lucius' Poké Ball saying "he won't be left behind in relation to the others".

There is no speculation.

The only thing the episode implies is that the Rising Volt Tacklers have disbanded, and the only one in charge of fixing the ship is Orla (contrary to what the episode page says).--[[User:Hikaru Wazana|Hikaru Wazana]] ([[User talk:Hikaru Wazana|talk]]) 03:28, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
:Okay. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 03:32, 13 April 2024 (UTC)

== Avoiding revert conflicts ==

Hi, as you are well aware, repeated reverts can lead to an edit war, so I'd advise that, instead of relying on edit summaries, bring things to the talk page when there appears to be a dispute before making subsequent reverts. Thanks! [[User:Landfish7|'''Land''']][[User talk:Landfish7|'''fish7''']] 23:06, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
:Understood. My policy has already been to not revert any edit more than twice to avoid being accused of edit warring. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 23:38, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
::An important line from the [[Bulbapedia:Blocking policy]] is '''fewer than three edits may qualify if there is a pattern of conduct occurring across multiple pages'''. If you find yourself often reverting up to that conduct line instead of taking the dispute to the talk pages, that is also not good conduct. We have noticed edit wars resulting from your reverts here, so do your best to take things to the talk pages ''even before'' you make that second revert. ''[[User:Maverick Nate|'''Maverick''']][[User talk:Maverick Nate|'''Nate''']]'' 04:37, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
:::Yes, I realized that following Landfish's post. Hence the wording "has already been". Now I am intending to update my policy to resorting to talk page if the ''other side'' reverts something more than once. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 08:21, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
::::This is one last reminder about the warnings you received here. Your recent reverts on [[Liko's Hattrem]], which were already being addressed by a staff member, progressed the situation in a revert war; if you participate in another edit war, you will be blocked. Please do not rely on just edit summaries to communicate with other users: go to the talk pages as soon as there is a conflict ''even if'' it means the page isn't correct for a day. ''[[User:Maverick Nate|'''Maverick''']][[User talk:Maverick Nate|'''Nate''']]'' 13:07, 29 June 2024 (UTC)
:::::Sorry. I figured two reversions wasn't too much (following my old policy of saying that three would be too much), temporarily forgetting my above decision to not do it more than once. I'll make sure not to forget it again. I also used the other user's talk page to avoid further edit warring. I am aware that being wrong for a day is not a big deal, I just tried to help and didn't remember the previous reversion had been done by an admin. My apologies, no need to get worried. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 13:26, 29 June 2024 (UTC)

== Can you find these same images but with higher quality? ==

I'm sorry to ask you and i know this is quite late (i originally wanted to ask a while ago, but i didn't know how create a "talk" page.) but i'm asking if you could find these images but with higher quality, as i can't really find any other sources that has higher resolution/quality

Here are the images:

* https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Ninjask_pokedex.png
* https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Nincada_anime.png
* https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Ninjask_ghost_train.png

if you could, I'd thank you and sorry if this message is a bit annoying.{{unsigned|ScottishMeowth}}
:I know you've asked Finnish and not me but, 1 I already upgraded those images and 2, they aren't being used anywhere on Bulbapedia at present so those images seem pointless.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]], Junior Admin Bulbapedia ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 13:17, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

== From Pererillo (Hearthome glitch) ==

Sorry if i'm not messaging correctly, I'm new to these type of contact method lol, I just want to say that I didn't knew that you were editing the edit that I made about the glitch in Hearthome, so sorry for editing it again when you already edited it {{unsigned|Pererillo}}
:It's okay. Cross edits sometimes happen. Also, you can sign your talk page posts from the signature button at the top of the edit screen (the third button from the left) or by adding four consecutive ~ marks at the end of your post. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 21:30, 9 May 2024 (UTC)

== AG006 Revert ==

I believe it had been established Bind prevents switching, like in EP005 when Onix uses Bind and Ash couldn't recall Pikachu. So to confirm, are you saying that because it wasn't Wrap specifically, it doesn't count as having been established? [[User:Weak2Normal|Weak2Normal]] ([[User talk:Weak2Normal|talk]]) 03:36, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
:The thing is that Wrap and Bind didn't precent switching in the games back during Generation I, so they've never really obeyed the game rules in the anime. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 07:37, 19 July 2024 (UTC)

== Darkgame9 ==
Just letting you know, admin are dealing with the situation regarding Darkgame9 so we'll handle it from here--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]], Junior Admin Bulbapedia ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 22:42, 20 July 2024 (UTC)

== How is this "better placement"? ==

[https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Team_Rocket&diff=next&oldid=4067103] Shouldn't the Smash image go in the Smash section? Or at least be closer to it? [[User:Unowninator|¿¡Unowninator?!]] ([[User talk:Unowninator|talk]]) 12:10, 21 July 2024 (UTC)
:I moved it back to the top because the Smash subsection was so short that placing the image there would've created a lot of unnecessary empty space below it, and the subsection on top of it was so long that placing it there wouldn't have landed it in the correct section. I'll see if I can find a better placement for it. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 12:14, 21 July 2024 (UTC)

== Visual Editor ==

Heya, I just wanted to make you aware that [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User%20talk:PokePrime&diff=4067720 before giving advice like this] it is important to check and be considerate of the circumstances under which an edit was made so the advice is also relevant to the user. PokePrime's edits were done with the visual editor (as can be seen in the way the edits were tagged). The visual editor will always put a new category at the very bottom of the page - thus being the reason the edit turned out that way, and making the advice you provided them slightly confusing. '''[[User:4iamking|4iamking]]''' 16:29, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
:It does? I was not aware of that quality of the visual editor. My apologies. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 16:51, 22 July 2024 (UTC)

== Title cards ==

Thank you so much for your help with getting all of those title card screenshots. Did not expect for them to added so quickly. Your help is greatly appreciated! --[[User:HoennMaster|Hoenn]][[User talk:HoennMaster|Master]] 03:15, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
:You're welcome. I saw incompleteness templates and knew what was the most reliable way of getting rid of them. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 07:31, 23 August 2024 (UTC)

== Gym Articles ==

I'm curious why you are changing the structure of a large subset of articles. Was this change detailed or approved somewhere that I missed? I checked the talk page for [[Bulbapedia talk:Project Locations|Project Locations]] and didn't see anything there, so I'd appreciate a link to where this conversation happened. ''[[User:Maverick Nate|'''Maverick''']][[User talk:Maverick Nate|'''Nate''']]'' 15:02, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
:I asked {{u|Landfish7}}'s opinion on Discord after the first edit, and their response was, "There's really no standard, so as long as the Gym pages are consistent with each other, that's fine". --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 15:04, 5 September 2024 (UTC)
::Talked with Landfish7 on Discord. There was a misunderstanding in what they thought I was doing. I've stopped my Gym article edits for now. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 15:14, 5 September 2024 (UTC)

== Motto variations ==

Is there a discussion somewhere I missed that we decided not to link to specific variations of a motto? [[User:Landfish7|'''Land''']][[User talk:Landfish7|'''fish7''']] 15:05, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
:The thing is that since all those variation links were added, the motto page was changed so that the section links to the different variations no longer work. Likely because they're collapsed to save space. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 15:07, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
::Could we add anchors? [[User:Landfish7|'''Land''']][[User talk:Landfish7|'''fish7''']] 15:08, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
:::Maybe, but with the variation section's content collapsed by default, when used from another page, it'd just lead to the series header instead of the specific variation motto itself, wouldn't it?--[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 15:11, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
::::Good point. Hmm. At that point maybe a "List of Team Rocket motto variations" page wouldn't be amiss? [[User:Landfish7|'''Land''']][[User talk:Landfish7|'''fish7''']] 15:13, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
:::::That would be a good option, admittedly. Didn't even consider that. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 15:16, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

== Thanks ==

Thanks for the help with the Raid Battles section in the anime.--[[User:Hikaru Wazana|Hikaru Wazana]] ([[User talk:Hikaru Wazana|talk]]) 17:41, 11 September 2024 (UTC)
:You're welcome. I'm always happy to help out with stuff like this. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 18:35, 11 September 2024 (UTC)

=="Unknown Pokémon"==
When trainers have Pokémon which aren't seen, only their Poké Ball, why is there a table for "unknown Pokémon" like on the [[Damian]] page?

If the trainer is seen with other Pokémon later on, it doesn't really imply they were going to use these Pokémon in their earlier appearance. [[User:Pikmin3WiiU|Pikmin 3]] [[User talk:Pikmin3WiiU|Wii U]] 20:19, 11 September 2024 (UTC)
:The thing is that we never see Damian again, so those Pokémon remain unknown, but we know he still has them, so they belong under an "on hand" header. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 20:41, 11 September 2024 (UTC)

== Suicune at Cerise Lab ==

You added suicune under "Other" for "Pokémon Previously seen at Cerise Laboratory". For consistency, it should not be included above there as it is already included as part of the category for Goh's pokémon. If we include it there on the basis that it's not with Goh, then we would also need to include Floette, since that pokémon was released and is not with Goh either.

I understand what you were thinking since Suicune was not a "Pokémon left at Cerise Laboratory" by Goh, so it doesn't feel like it should fit there. It may be helpful to rename the sections.--[[User:Vi|Vi]] ([[User talk:Vi|talk]]) 04:42, 12 September 2024 (UTC)

==Blurb==


Parker calls Chloe with a problem concerning his friend Jinny: Jinny’s other friends are making fun of her Feebas, saying it’s not cute. Our heroes take Jinny and Feebas to visit Cerise Laboratory, where Chrysa suggests the pair enter a special competition for kids and Water-type Pokémon. The problem is, Jinny can’t swim…but after some hard work and training, Jinny and Feebas put on a fabulous performance! Meanwhile, Team Rocket is after all the Pokémon they can steal. Just in time, Feebas evolves into a beautiful Milotic, and it sends the trio blasting off! Jinny and Milotic receive a special award, and Chloe’s appreciation for Pokémon continues to grow!

==Plot==
After receiving an unexpected call from her younger brother [[Parker]], [[Chloe]] reaches [[Cerise Laboratory|her father's laboratory]] and asks {{Ash}} and [[Goh]] if they could help. Chloe explains that one of Parker's friends recently got a new Pokémon, which sparked a schoolyard argument over whether it is cute or not. The group arrive at a local park to find several kids bullying [[Jinny]] and her {{p|Feebas}} [[nickname]]d Feeby while Parker looks out for his friend. Goh is thrilled to see the Feebas and scans it with his [[Rotom Phone]]. Jinny turns to Parker for support, but he feels torn. Ash pipes up, remarking that Feebas is a great Pokémon, and Goh adds that it evolves into something amazing. The other kids refuse to believe the boys, and quickly take a liking to Ash's adorable {{AP|Pikachu}}. {{TP|Goh|Raboot}} then appears, scaring the bullies away. To cheer Jinny up, Ash and Goh invite her to Cerise Park.

At Cerise Park, Feeby starts swimming in the water and befriends Goh's {{DL|List of Goh's Pokémon|Goldeen}} and {{pkmn2|giant}} {{TP|Goh|Magikarp|giant Magikarp}}. Jinny asks the boys what exactly Feebas evolve into. In the lab, [[Professor Cerise]] reveals that Feebas evolve into {{p|Milotic}}; said to be the world's most beautiful Pokémon. Parker and Jinny are excited by the prospect, though [[Ren]] remarks that making a Feebas evolve takes a lot of effort. [[Chrysa]] takes a more optimistic approach, and her research reveals that [[Slateport City]] is hosting its annual [[Friendship Festival]]. Ash decides he will enter, but Chrysa reveals that only young children like Jinny can participate. Ren adds that it might be a good way to show off Feeby's charm, and Jinny happily cheers that she will enter the festival. Ash and Goh vow to cheer Jinny onto victory. Chloe sighs, feeling apprehensive about Jinny's chances, though her father reminds her that you won’t succeed if you don’t try first.

Jinny returns to Feeby and announces that they will enter the Friendship Festival together, to which Feeby happily splashes around in response. Ash turns to Goh for a training plan, with Chloe reading that the festival is a test of [[friendship]] and showing off [[move]]s. Ash starts off with a practice battle, ordering Feeby to {{m|Tackle}} Pikachu, but Chloe interjects and shouts that the festival is not a battle. Next, Goh unveils his own plan – to have Jinny and Feebas perform a swimming routine. Jinny suddenly clings tightly onto Chloe before admitting that she cannot swim, stunning everyone. Jinny adds that she really does want to compete and prove everyone wrong about Feeby. The streak of determination incites something within Chloe, and she offers to help Jinny learn to swim. Chloe sets up a small pool for Jinny to practice swimming and orders the boys to strengthen Feeby's chances with a practice obstacle course. Goh has his Goldeen assist, and it elegantly navigates through the course before performing a somersault through a ring at the end. Feeby, however, crashes its way through the obstacles and gets itself trapped in a swimming ring. As the training continues, Jinny is beginning to swim confidently while Feeby has improved as well. Next, they have Jinny and Feeby practice together, which goes well. As Chloe calls it a day, she notices a peculiar but pretty-looking [[Prism Scale]] on Feeby. Goh calls to Chloe, saying that he thought she didn’t like Pokémon. She brushes him off, replying that she just wants to cheer on Jinny's determination and hard work. Goh clarifies further, and Chloe now affirms that she wants to see Jinny win.

Later, Jinny and her supporters take a ship and arrive in Slateport City. Goh instantly spots his next target and catches himself a {{p|Wingull}}. Chloe is unimpressed, but Goh reminds her that he aims to catch every Pokémon and reach his dream. Meanwhile, {{TRT}} has followed Ash and the others in their Magikarp submarine, and plan to steal the festival Pokémon for themselves.

The Friendship Festival gets underway. [[Tito]] and his {{p|Corsola}} get an applause from the crowd before [[Marin]] and {{p|Seaking}} take to the stage. Goh is impressed by the others performers, though Chloe, Parker and Ash are quick to remind him that Jinny and Feeby have worked hard. Goh quickly changes the subject, to which Chloe informs him that she had invited Jinny and Parker's other classmates over to her house to watch the event being streamed online. Next, Jinny, with Feeby in her arms, nervously walks onto the stage before leaping into the performance pool. Feeby makes an incredible leap before swimming around Jinny for a whirlpool effect. Jinny and Feeby's performance is going well, even getting compliments from the crowd and her kindergarten friends watching from [[Vermilion City]].

Team Rocket suddenly crashes the festival and performs their {{motto}}, destroying the stage set-up in the process. The trio immediately get to work and start stealing the competitors' Pokémon with the grabber claws on their Magikarp submarine. The trio set their sights on Feeby as well, calling on backup from the [[Rocket Prize Master]] and receiving a {{p|Kingler}} and {{p|Carvanha}}. [[Jessie]] orders Carvanha to use {{m|Bite}}, though Pikachu intervenes with an {{m|Iron Tail}}. Raboot narrowly dodges a {{m|Metal Claw}} from Kingler. As the confrontation rages, {{MTR}} orders Jinny to hand over her Pokémon. Feeby makes an incredible leap to defend its Trainer, but is struck down by Meowth's {{m|Fury Swipes}}. Feeby's oddly colored scale falls off as a result. Jinny tries sticking the scale back on before using her body to defend her flailing Pokémon. The act of kindness triggers [[evolution]], and Feeby emerges as a Milotic. Jessie orders Carvanha to attack with {{m|Take Down}}, but Milotic uses {{m|Wrap}} followed by {{m|Water Gun}} to batter it away. Ash orders a follow up Iron Tail from Pikachu, which sends Kingler crashing into Team Rocket before Feeby sends the villains blasting off with a {{m|Twister}} attack. The nabbed Pokémon are consequently freed and start returning to their Trainers. Jinny and Feeby later receive a special award from the festival organizers for their display of friendship.

Returning to Vermilion City, Jinny and Feeby's hard work and cooperation are praised by the other kindergarteners. Ash, Goh and Chloe, who comments that Pokémon are amazing, watch on as the kids now play together.

==Trivia==
* [[Get Inspired! Let's Solve a Poké Riddle!!]]: {{p|Milotic}}
* Some first airings did not have a Poké Riddle, but instead have news on [[M23]], an announcement for a [[M21]] stream, and information on the {{Shiny}} {{p|Celebi}} and {{p|Zarude}} distributions.
* All the participants in the Friendship Festival are kids who are below 10 years old. This contradicts the statement that a [[Pokémon Trainer]] must be at least 10 years old in order to catch Pokémon.
* Ash initially wanted to take part in the Friendship Festival despite not having a Water-type Pokémon in his current party. He catches a [[Ash's Dracovish|Water-type Pokémon]] in ''[[JN050|A Pinch of This, a Pinch of That!]]'', 19 episodes later.
* This episode marks the first time [[Chloe]] has traveled to another region with {{Ash}} and [[Goh]].
* This episode marks the first appearance of a {{p|Spheal}} in the {{pkmn|anime}} since ''[[DP109|Leading a Stray!]]'', 541 episodes earlier.
* Goh and a {{p|Celebi}} narrate the preview for the [[JN032|next episode]].

===Errors===
* When [[Jinny]]'s {{p|Milotic}} uses {{m|Twister}} to blast off {{TRT}}, the [[Friendship Festival]] sign is blown away by the attack. However, when the Magikarp submarine is about to be blasted off with Team Rocket, the sign appears to return to its previous position.
** During that same scene, the [[Rocket Prize Master]] is nowhere to be seen.
* The episode's description on [[Netflix]] refers to [[Jinny]] by her Japanese name.

===Dub edits===
* The Japanese texts depicting {{p|Kingler}} and {{p|Carvanha}}'s {{pkmn|category|categories}} and names are edited out.

==Blurb==


Parker calls Chloe with a problem concerning his friend Jinny: Jinny’s other friends are making fun of her Feebas, saying it’s not cute. Our heroes take Jinny and Feebas to visit Cerise Laboratory, where Chrysa suggests the pair enter a special competition for kids and Water-type Pokémon. The problem is, Jinny can’t swim…but after some hard work and training, Jinny and Feebas put on a fabulous performance! Meanwhile, Team Rocket is after all the Pokémon they can steal. Just in time, Feebas evolves into a beautiful Milotic, and it sends the trio blasting off! Jinny and Milotic receive a special award, and Chloe’s appreciation for Pokémon continues to grow!

==Plot==
After receiving an unexpected call from her younger brother [[Parker]], [[Chloe]] reaches [[Cerise Laboratory|her father's laboratory]] and asks {{Ash}} and [[Goh]] if they could help. Chloe explains that one of Parker's friends recently got a new Pokémon, which sparked a schoolyard argument over whether it is cute or not. The group arrive at a local park to find several kids bullying [[Jinny]] and her {{p|Feebas}} [[nickname]]d Feeby while Parker looks out for his friend. Goh is thrilled to see the Feebas and scans it with his [[Rotom Phone]]. Jinny turns to Parker for support, but he feels torn. Ash pipes up, remarking that Feebas is a great Pokémon, and Goh adds that it evolves into something amazing. The other kids refuse to believe the boys, and quickly take a liking to Ash's adorable {{AP|Pikachu}}. {{TP|Goh|Raboot}} then appears, scaring the bullies away. To cheer Jinny up, Ash and Goh invite her to Cerise Park.

At Cerise Park, Feeby starts swimming in the water and befriends Goh's {{DL|List of Goh's Pokémon|Goldeen}} and {{pkmn2|giant}} {{TP|Goh|Magikarp|giant Magikarp}}. Jinny asks the boys what exactly Feebas evolve into. In the lab, [[Professor Cerise]] reveals that Feebas evolve into {{p|Milotic}}; said to be the world's most beautiful Pokémon. Parker and Jinny are excited by the prospect, though [[Ren]] remarks that making a Feebas evolve takes a lot of effort. [[Chrysa]] takes a more optimistic approach, and her research reveals that [[Slateport City]] is hosting its annual [[Friendship Festival]]. Ash decides he will enter, but Chrysa reveals that only young children like Jinny can participate. Ren adds that it might be a good way to show off Feeby's charm, and Jinny happily cheers that she will enter the festival. Ash and Goh vow to cheer Jinny onto victory. Chloe sighs, feeling apprehensive about Jinny's chances, though her father reminds her that you won’t succeed if you don’t try first.

Jinny returns to Feeby and announces that they will enter the Friendship Festival together, to which Feeby happily splashes around in response. Ash turns to Goh for a training plan, with Chloe reading that the festival is a test of [[friendship]] and showing off [[move]]s. Ash starts off with a practice battle, ordering Feeby to {{m|Tackle}} Pikachu, but Chloe interjects and shouts that the festival is not a battle. Next, Goh unveils his own plan – to have Jinny and Feebas perform a swimming routine. Jinny suddenly clings tightly onto Chloe before admitting that she cannot swim, stunning everyone. Jinny adds that she really does want to compete and prove everyone wrong about Feeby. The streak of determination incites something within Chloe, and she offers to help Jinny learn to swim. Chloe sets up a small pool for Jinny to practice swimming and orders the boys to strengthen Feeby's chances with a practice obstacle course. Goh has his Goldeen assist, and it elegantly navigates through the course before performing a somersault through a ring at the end. Feeby, however, crashes its way through the obstacles and gets itself trapped in a swimming ring. As the training continues, Jinny is beginning to swim confidently while Feeby has improved as well. Next, they have Jinny and Feeby practice together, which goes well. As Chloe calls it a day, she notices a peculiar but pretty-looking [[Prism Scale]] on Feeby. Goh calls to Chloe, saying that he thought she didn’t like Pokémon. She brushes him off, replying that she just wants to cheer on Jinny's determination and hard work. Goh clarifies further, and Chloe now affirms that she wants to see Jinny win.

Later, Jinny and her supporters take a ship and arrive in Slateport City. Goh instantly spots his next target and catches himself a {{p|Wingull}}. Chloe is unimpressed, but Goh reminds her that he aims to catch every Pokémon and reach his dream. Meanwhile, {{TRT}} has followed Ash and the others in their Magikarp submarine, and plan to steal the festival Pokémon for themselves.

The Friendship Festival gets underway. [[Tito]] and his {{p|Corsola}} get an applause from the crowd before [[Marin]] and {{p|Seaking}} take to the stage. Goh is impressed by the others performers, though Chloe, Parker and Ash are quick to remind him that Jinny and Feeby have worked hard. Goh quickly changes the subject, to which Chloe informs him that she had invited Jinny and Parker's other classmates over to her house to watch the event being streamed online. Next, Jinny, with Feeby in her arms, nervously walks onto the stage before leaping into the performance pool. Feeby makes an incredible leap before swimming around Jinny for a whirlpool effect. Jinny and Feeby's performance is going well, even getting compliments from the crowd and her kindergarten friends watching from [[Vermilion City]].

Team Rocket suddenly crashes the festival and performs their {{motto}}, destroying the stage set-up in the process. The trio immediately get to work and start stealing the competitors' Pokémon with the grabber claws on their Magikarp submarine. The trio set their sights on Feeby as well, calling on backup from the [[Rocket Prize Master]] and receiving a {{p|Kingler}} and {{p|Carvanha}}. [[Jessie]] orders Carvanha to use {{m|Bite}}, though Pikachu intervenes with an {{m|Iron Tail}}. Raboot narrowly dodges a {{m|Metal Claw}} from Kingler. As the confrontation rages, {{MTR}} orders Jinny to hand over her Pokémon. Feeby makes an incredible leap to defend its Trainer, but is struck down by Meowth's {{m|Fury Swipes}}. Feeby's oddly colored scale falls off as a result. Jinny tries sticking the scale back on before using her body to defend her flailing Pokémon. The act of kindness triggers [[evolution]], and Feeby emerges as a Milotic. Jessie orders Carvanha to attack with {{m|Take Down}}, but Milotic uses {{m|Wrap}} followed by {{m|Water Gun}} to batter it away. Ash orders a follow up Iron Tail from Pikachu, which sends Kingler crashing into Team Rocket before Feeby sends the villains blasting off with a {{m|Twister}} attack. The nabbed Pokémon are consequently freed and start returning to their Trainers. Jinny and Feeby later receive a special award from the festival organizers for their display of friendship.

Returning to Vermilion City, Jinny and Feeby's hard work and cooperation are praised by the other kindergarteners. Ash, Goh and Chloe, who comments that Pokémon are amazing, watch on as the kids now play together.

The '''Cerise Research Laboratory''' (Japanese: '''サクラギ{{tt|研究所|けんきゅうしょ}}''' ''Sakuragi Institute''), or the '''Cerise Laboratory''' for short, is an {{pkmn|anime}}-exclusive {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} research laboratory located in [[Vermilion City]] in the [[Kanto]] [[region]]. It is directed by [[Professor Cerise]], who works there with his [[Professors' aides|research assistants]] [[Chrysa]] and [[Ren]]. It also serves as {{Ash}} and [[Goh]]'s base of operations during ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''.

==Structure==
A domed area known as '''Cerise Park''' (Japanese: '''サクラギパーク''' ''Sakuragi Park'') is located inside the lab. Ash and Goh keep their [[caught Pokémon]] there whenever they are not on a research mission.

In ''[[JN002|Legend? Go! Friends? Go!]]'', the Cerise Laboratory officially opened as a Pokémon research facility. However, the building itself is significantly older and was abandoned for a time, as revealed in ''[[JN016|A Chilling Curse!]]''. Three years prior, a {{AP|Gengar}} haunted the facility after it was abandoned by [[Gengar's former Trainer|its former Trainer]]. Professor Cerise was well aware of the haunting rumors when he purchased the building but was unfazed by it. The occurrences soon subsided once the Gengar gave up trying to scare him. However, in ''[[JN011|Best Friend...Worst Nightmare!]]'', the supernatural occurrences resumed, likely because of new arrivals like Ash and Goh taking residence there. Eventually, Ash {{pkmn2|caught}} the Gengar.

In ''[[JN023|Panic in the Park!]]'', as stated by Professor Cerise, the Pokémon created their own unique habitats just like in the real world. In [[JN107|some instances]], a Pokémon from another habitat ended up invading the habitat of others, creating an imbalance and some problems which had to be solved by those responsible for taking care of the Pokémon in place. Some Pokémon are responsible for the food, especially {{TP|Goh|Raichu}}, and others for taking care of the order, something done by {{TP|Professor Cerise|Yamper}}.

'''Professor Cerise's Yamper''' (Japanese: '''サクラギ博士のワンパチ''' ''Dr. Sakuragi's Wanpachi'') is a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} owned by [[Professor Cerise]]. Yamper is especially fond of Cerise's daughter, [[Chloe]], and is often seen with her when she is home or at the [[Cerise Laboratory]].

==In the anime==
===History===
====Pre-series====
As revealed in ''[[JN029|There's a New Kid in Town!]]'', [[Professor Cerise]] received Yamper from a friend in the [[Galar]] [[region]], and he soon became a family pet. Yamper arrived before [[Parker]] was born and [[Chloe]] was only a young child at the time. Chloe became jealous thinking her parents were giving Yamper more attention than her. At one point, Chloe told Yamper that she wished he would go away. Yamper disappeared after this and Chloe went looking for him at a local park, only to be frightened by a group of approaching {{p|Venonat}}. Yamper appeared and scared them off, quickly forming a particularly strong [[friendship]] with Chloe.

====''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''====
{{incomplete|section|role in JN107}}
Yamper first appears in ''[[JN002|Legend? Go! Friends? Go!]]'', where he is waiting in front of the [[Cerise Laboratory]] to greet Chloe on her way back from school, but instead meets {{Ash}} and {{AP|Pikachu}}. Yamper gives the overly-curious Ash a jolt, but greets Pikachu amicably with a lick on his cheek. When Chloe arrives, Yamper greets her and follows her to the laboratory.

In ''[[JN011|Best Friend...Worst Nightmare!]]'', Yamper protects the lab from a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{AP|Gengar}} that had invaded the Cerise Laboratory. After a Gengar comes into the lab, Yamper senses it and tries to attack it, but instead bounces right off. Still, he reveals its presence to Ash, Pikachu, [[Goh]], and {{TP|Goh|Scorbunny}} who decide to search for the Gengar. Yamper helps the boys during their search, using his nose to sniff Gengar out, but their attempts to stop Gengar were ultimately unsuccessful. Shortly after Gengar's escape, Chloe returns to the Laboratory, and Yamper immediately stops what he is doing to come to the lobby and greet her. At that moment, Gengar suddenly appears behind Chloe and launches a {{m|Shadow Ball}} at her, but Yamper quickly intercepts it. Chloe scoops Yamper in her arms and tries to escape, but Gengar prevents her from doing so. Gengar then uses its {{m|Psychic}} powers to keep Ash and the others from interfering. Regaining consciousness, Yamper struggles out of Chloe's arms and gets ready to battle once more. [[Professor Cerise]], who had just arrived on the scene, commands Yamper to use {{m|Spark}}, but Yamper does not receive the command. [[Ren]] and [[Chrysa]] realize that Yamper could not hear the Professor because he was single-handedly focused on protecting Chloe, prompting Cerise to tell his daughter to give Yamper the command. Chloe, who had never {{pkmn|battle}}d before, hesitates, but soon tells Yamper to use Spark, with the resulting attack sending the {{t|Ghost}} Pokémon flying out of the research facility.

In ''[[JN029|There's a New Kid in Town!]]'', Yamper finds a {{p|Pidove}} that has an injured wing and brings it to the house. Chloe and Parker help it to recover, causing Yamper to become jealous of the attention that Chloe was giving Pidove. Over the next two days, Yamper becomes increasingly annoyed by Pidove, whom insists on riding on his back. Later, a {{p|Fearow}} attacks Pidove, but Yamper, under Chloe's command, protects Pidove by attacking fearow with Spark. Pidove is later returned to its rightful Trainer, with Yamper seeing his new friend off.


In ''[[JN049|To Train, or Not to Train]]'' Yamper introduces Chloe to an [[Chloe's Eevee|Eevee]] that was hiding from [[Eevee Evolution Lab|Eevee Evolution Lab]] scientists. Although, Yamper had previously been jealous of Pidove for the attention it received from Chloe, Yamper never exhibits jealousy towards Eevee. Instead, he excitedly welcomes Eevee when Chloe decides to catch her.

In ''[[JN136|This Could be the Start of Something Big!]]'', Yamper attends a surprise party hosted by the Lab members commemorating Goh and Ash's departure. After that, Yamper poses for a group photo with Goh, Ash, and the others.

===Personality and characteristics===
[[File:Chloe and Yamper.png|thumb|left|250px|Yamper and Chloe]]
Yamper is normally a friendly Pokémon and appears to feel most comfortable around Chloe, being seen napping belly-up right next to her. Out of the Cerise household, Yamper likes Chloe the most, despite her, at times, distant attitude towards him, and according to her little brother [[Parker]], he only accepts {{pkmn|food}} from her. Yamper is very protective of Chloe and is quick to throw himself at anything that he sees as a threat to her, despite his small size. In ''[[JN020|Dreams Are Made of These!]]'', he was even ready to fight a {{p|Lugia}} in order to keep her safe, before it was revealed to be a trap set by {{TRT}}. In contrast, Yamper seems mostly indifferent towards his actual Trainer, to the point where his family joked that Yamper liked him the least. In ''[[JN057|Memories of a Warming Kindness!]]'', Yamper was shown wanting to go with Chloe for a sleepover when Parker asked him to go with him. Yamper only gave in when Chloe asked him to go with her brother.

Yamper appears to dislike being smothered with affection or having his personal space invaded. In ''[[JN002|Legend? Go! Friends? Go!]]'', he shocked Ash, who had never seen a Yamper and chased him down to examine him out of his curiosity. This first encounter initially left Yamper with a bad impression of Ash, as later in the episode, he was seen barking angrily at the exhausted Ash after he returned to the Laboratory with [[Goh]]. However, Yamper appears to have warmed up to Ash, being less hostile to him. He also seems to dislike strangers, growling and barking at Goh's newfound partner, {{TP|Goh|Scorbunny}}, in ''[[JN005|Mind-Boggling Dynamax!]]''. Conversely, he got along with {{AP|Pikachu}} immediately, giving him a friendly greeting after shocking Ash and later playing with him while Chloe scolded Goh in the same episode.

Yamper tends to get jealous, as seen in ''[[JN029|There's a New Kid in Town!]]'' when Chloe started paying more attention to a {{p|Pidove}} that Yamper had found injured. Despite this, Yamper protected the Pidove from an attacking wild {{p|Fearow}}. Ever since Chloe caught her {{TP|Chloe|Eevee}}, Yamper has shown to get along really well with her, often playing and interacting with her.

As shown in ''[[JN107|Big Brother to the Rescue!]]'', Yamper tends to patrol Cerise Park and solve any problems the Pokémon living there might have, sometimes fetching another Pokémon to help fix said problem.

Yamper disappeared after this and Chloe went looking for him at a local park, only to be frightened by a group of approaching {{p|Venonat}}. Yamper appeared and scared them off, quickly forming a particularly strong [[friendship]] with Chloe.

====''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''====
{{incomplete|section|role in JN107}}
Yamper first appeared in ''[[JN002|Legend? Go! Friends? Go!]]'', where he was waiting in front of the [[Cerise Laboratory]] to greet Chloe on her way back from school, but was met with {{Ash}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} instead. Yamper gave the overly-curious Ash a jolt, but greeted Pikachu amicably with a lick on his cheek before seeing Chloe, confused by the scene, and following her to the Laboratory.

In ''[[JN011|Best Friend...Worst Nightmare!]]'', while waiting for Chloe to return from school, the Cerise Laboratory was invaded by a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{AP|Gengar}}. Yamper immediately sensed Gengar and tried to attack it, but bounced right off it, revealing its presence to Ash, Pikachu, [[Goh]], and {{TP|Goh|Scorbunny}}. He later helped the boys search for the intruder, using his nose to sniff Gengar out, but their attempts to stop it were ultimately unsuccessful. Shortly after Gengar's escape, Chloe returned to the Laboratory, and Yamper immediately stopped what he was doing to come to the lobby and greet her.

Unbeknownst to Chloe, however, the Gengar had appeared behind her and launched an {{m|Shadow Ball}} at her, which Yamper quickly intercepted, to her shock. Chloe scooped Yamper in her arms and tried to escape, but Gengar prevented her from escaping, and used its {{m|Psychic}} powers to keep Ash and the others from interfering. Regaining consciousness, Yamper struggled out of Chloe's arms and got ready to battle once more.

Pidove was later returned to its rightful Trainer, with Yamper seeing his new friend off.


In ''[[JN049|To Train, or Not to Train]]'' Yamper plays an integral role in introducing Chloe and [[Chloe's Eevee|Eevee]]. After Eevee and Yamper meet, Yamper helps Eevee run away from the [[Eevee Evolution Lab|Eevee Evolution Lab]] scientists by bringing Eevee to Chloe's school. He then gets Chloe's attention through a school window, and brings Chloe to Eevee. Although, Yamper had previously been jealous of Pidove for the attention it received from Chloe, Yamper never exhibits jealousy towards Eevee. Instead, he welcomes Eevee when Chloe decides to catch them.

In ''[[JN136|This Could be the Start of Something Big!]]'', Yamper attended a surprise party hosted by the Lab members commemorating Goh and Ash's departure. After that, it posed for a group photo with Goh, Ash, and the others.

[[File:Pocket Monsters 2019 logo.png|thumb|Japanese logo for ''Pocket Monsters'']]
'''''Pokémon Journeys: The Series''''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター''' ''Pocket Monsters'') is the seventh [[series]] of the [[Pokémon anime]]. This anime series is based on the events of all the [[core series]] {{pkmn|games}}, including the [[Generation VIII]] games {{g|Sword and Shield}}. It follows ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]'' and was succeeded by ''[[Pokémon Horizons: The Series]]''. It premiered between November 17, 2019 and March 24, 2023 in Japan (although the first episode had a special screening two days earlier) and between June 12, 2020 and September 8, 2023 in {{pmin|the United States}}.

The series features "double protagonists" [[Ash Ketchum]] and [[Goh]], along with their respective partners {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Goh|Cinderace}}. Similar to ''Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon'', Ash is based in a single location, alongside Goh, and together they travel around the {{pkmn|world}}, specifically all [[region]]s that have appeared in the [[core series]] (from [[Kanto]] to [[Galar]]), and meet {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} living in each region while pursuing their respective goals. Ash continues his pursuit of becoming a [[Pokémon Master]] by entering the [[World Coronation Series]], with the hopes of one day having an official match with the reigning Monarch, {{an|Leon}}. Goh, having had a fateful encounter with {{p|Mew}} when he was six, dreams of one day {{pkmn2|caught|catching}} the [[Mythical Pokémon]], and is currently filling his [[Pokédex]] and participating in the [[Project Mew]] research project in the hopes that they will get him closer to his dream. The series also features as supporting characters a young girl named [[Chloe]], and her father [[Professor Cerise]], who runs the [[Cerise Laboratory]] in [[Vermilion City]].

As with the previous three series of the anime, this series introduces a new art style. For instance, Ash's eyes (both the irises and the overall eyes) are drawn larger, and {{TRT}}'s eyes are drawn sharper than in ''Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon''. Overall, the characters are drawn more similarly based on Ken Sugimori's more recent character art. Characters are also consistently drawn with fingernails, like in ''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]''.

''Pokémon Journeys'' features the return of several characters that have appeared over the course of the anime, from main characters (like {{an|Brock}}, {{an|Iris}}, and {{an|Dawn}}, for example) to some recurring characters (like [[Gary Oak]], {{an|Korrina}}, [[Butch]], and [[Cassidy]], among others), far more than any of the previous series. In addition to this, Pokémon Journeys concludes several storylines created over the years within the anime, such as the story of [[Mohn]], Butch and Cassidy's rivalry with [[Jessie]] and [[James]], and Ash's story with {{an|Cynthia}}.

''Pokémon Journeys'' is the first anime series to feature episodes split into two different story segments, something that started in ''[[JN026|Splash, Dash, and Smash for the Crown! / Slowking's Crowning!]]'' and continued with ''[[JN041|Pikachu Translation Check... / Up to Your Neck!]]'' and ''[[JN058|A Rollicking Roll… / Eyes on the Goal!]]''. These episodes have a more comical and "loose" plot from the main anime story. This is also the first anime series to have special episodes released directly for streaming, with a four-part arc related to [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]], titled [[Pokémon: The Arceus Chronicles]], released directly on Japan's [[Prime Video]] service.<ref>https://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2022/01/220114_a01.html</ref>

After airing the first 136 episodes of ''Pokémon Journeys: The Series'' in Japan, on December 16, 2022, an eleven-episode mini series focused on Ash and Pikachu which takes place after the events of those episodes called '''''Pokémon: To Be a Pokémon Master''''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスターめざせポケモンマスター''' ''Pocket Monsters: Aim to Be a Pokémon Master'') was announced worldwide.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_VMGv2kKEI&t=7</ref>

Episodes in ''Pokémon Journeys: The Series'' are numbered with {{bp|Epicode|the prefix}} '''JN''' on [[Bulbapedia]]. For a complete episode listing, see the [[list of Pokémon Journeys: The Series episodes]].

The '''Cerise Research Laboratory''' (Japanese: '''サクラギ{{tt|研究所|けんきゅうしょ}}''' ''Sakuragi Institute''), or the '''Cerise Laboratory''' for short, is an {{pkmn|anime}}-exclusive {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} research laboratory located in [[Vermilion City]] in the [[Kanto]] [[region]]. It is directed by [[Professor Cerise]], who works there with his [[Professors' aides|research assistants]] [[Chrysa]] and [[Ren]]. It also serves as {{Ash}} and [[Goh]]'s base of operations during ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''.

==Structure==
A domed area known as '''Cerise Park''' (Japanese: '''サクラギパーク''' ''Sakuragi Park'') is located inside the lab. Ash and Goh keep their [[caught Pokémon]] there whenever they are not on a research mission.

In ''[[JN002|Legend? Go! Friends? Go!]]'', the Cerise Laboratory officially opened as a Pokémon research facility. However, the building itself is significantly older and was abandoned for a time, as revealed in ''[[JN016|A Chilling Curse!]]''. Three years prior, a {{AP|Gengar}} haunted the facility after it was abandoned by [[Gengar's former Trainer|its former Trainer]]. Professor Cerise was well aware of the haunting rumors when he purchased the building but was unfazed by it. The occurrences soon subsided once the Gengar gave up trying to scare him. However, in ''[[JN011|Best Friend...Worst Nightmare!]]'', the supernatural occurrences resumed, likely because of new arrivals like Ash and Goh taking residence there. Eventually, Ash {{pkmn2|caught}} the Gengar.

In ''[[JN023|Panic in the Park!]]'', as stated by Professor Cerise, the Pokémon created their own unique habitats just like in the real world. In [[JN107|some instances]], a Pokémon from another habitat ended up invading the habitat of others, creating an imbalance and some problems which had to be solved by those responsible for taking care of the Pokémon in place. Some Pokémon are responsible for the food, especially {{TP|Goh|Raichu}}, and others for taking care of the order, something done by {{TP|Professor Cerise|Yamper}}.

The '''Cerise Research Laboratory''' (Japanese: '''サクラギ{{tt|研究所|けんきゅうしょ}}''' ''Sakuragi Institute''), or the '''Cerise Laboratory''' for short, is an {{pkmn|anime}}-exclusive {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} research laboratory located in [[Vermilion City]] in the [[Kanto]] [[region]]. It is directed by [[Professor Cerise]], who works there with his [[Professors' aides|research assistants]] [[Chrysa]] and [[Ren]]. It also serves as {{Ash}} and [[Goh]]'s base of operations during ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''.

==Structure==
A domed area known as '''Cerise Park''' (Japanese: '''サクラギパーク''' ''Sakuragi Park'') is located inside the lab. Ash and Goh keep their [[caught Pokémon]] there whenever they are not on a research mission.

In ''[[JN002|Legend? Go! Friends? Go!]]'', the Cerise Laboratory officially opened as a Pokémon research facility. However, the building itself is significantly older and was abandoned for a time, as revealed in ''[[JN016|A Chilling Curse!]]''. Three years prior, a {{AP|Gengar}} haunted the facility after it was abandoned by [[Gengar's former Trainer|its former Trainer]]. Professor Cerise was well aware of the haunting rumors when he purchased the building but was unfazed by it. The occurrences soon subsided once the Gengar gave up trying to scare him. However, in ''[[JN011|Best Friend...Worst Nightmare!]]'', the supernatural occurrences resumed, likely because of new arrivals like Ash and Goh taking residence there. Eventually, Ash {{pkmn2|caught}} the Gengar.

In ''[[JN023|Panic in the Park!]]'', as stated by Professor Cerise, the Pokémon created their own unique habitats just like in the real world. In [[JN107|some instances]], a Pokémon from another habitat ended up invading the habitat of others, creating an imbalance and some problems which had to be solved by those responsible for taking care of the Pokémon in place. Some Pokémon are responsible for the food, especially {{TP|Goh|Raichu}}, and others for taking care of the order, something done by {{TP|Professor Cerise|Yamper}}.

==JN095 placement==
A flashback in JN095 shows James losing his job with Cassidy because of Morpeko eating the food, James didn't catch Morpeko until JN070 so JN095 can't take place around JN014.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]], Junior Admin Bulbapedia ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 21:29, 18 November 2023 (UTC)

== Regarding JN014 and JN095 ==

They're not connected at all and there isn't enough evidence that these two eps are taking place at the same time. If that were the case, Goh would still have Scorbunny on his shoulder like in JN014 instead of Grookey, but Scorbunny was fully evolved at that point in JN095. Even making the argument that Goh rotates his shoulder Pokémon would be a huge stretch. [[User:Piratezrobo|Piratezrobo]] ([[User talk:Piratezrobo|talk]]) 21:35, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
:Ok, thank you for the correction. I guess I didn't consider all the evidence.{{unsigned|Vi}}

Ren's Magnemite, Francois, was also seen at Cerise Laboratory. I tried to upload an image of Francois at the Lab, but I'm not sure how to add it.{{unsigned|Vi}}
:I've added Francois to the page for you, the image you uploaded wasn't needed as we have an existing image for it which is better.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]], Junior Admin Bulbapedia ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 16:04, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
Also Chloe's Eevee was seen at Cerise Lab and so was Ash's Pikachu. I'll try to add them as well following this format. [[User:Vi|Vi]] ([[User talk:Vi|talk]]) 16:13, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

== Boldore ==
When do we see Professor Cerise's Boldore? I thought the only Boldore there was Goh's Boldore.{{unsigned|Vi}}

Cerise Laboratory

Vi: Add Rotom to list of Pokemon seen at Cerise Lab. Removed Boldore which is already included in the list of Goh's pokemon.

The '''Cerise Research Laboratory''' (Japanese: '''サクラギ{{tt|研究所|けんきゅうしょ}}''' ''Sakuragi Institute''), or the '''Cerise Laboratory''' for short, is an {{pkmn|anime}}-exclusive {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} research laboratory located in [[Vermilion City]] in the [[Kanto]] [[region]]. It is directed by [[Professor Cerise]], who works there with his [[Professors' aides|research assistants]] [[Chrysa]] and [[Ren]]. It also serves as {{Ash}} and [[Goh]]'s base of operations during ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''.

==Structure==
A domed area known as '''Cerise Park''' (Japanese: '''サクラギパーク''' ''Sakuragi Park'') is located inside the lab. Ash and Goh keep their [[caught Pokémon]] there whenever they are not on a research mission.

In ''[[JN002|Legend? Go! Friends? Go!]]'', the Cerise Laboratory officially opened as a Pokémon research facility. However, the building itself is significantly older and was abandoned for a time, as revealed in ''[[JN016|A Chilling Curse!]]''. Three years prior, a {{AP|Gengar}} haunted the facility after it was abandoned by [[Gengar's former Trainer|its former Trainer]]. Professor Cerise was well aware of the haunting rumors when he purchased the building but was unfazed by it. The occurrences soon subsided once the Gengar gave up trying to scare him. However, in ''[[JN011|Best Friend...Worst Nightmare!]]'', the supernatural occurrences resumed, likely because of new arrivals like Ash and Goh taking residence there. Eventually, Ash {{pkmn2|caught}} the Gengar.

In ''[[JN023|Panic in the Park!]]'', as stated by Professor Cerise, the Pokémon created their own unique habitats just like in the real world. In [[JN107|some instances]], a Pokémon from another habitat ended up invading the habitat of others, creating an imbalance and some problems which had to be solved by those responsible for taking care of the Pokémon in place. Some Pokémon are responsible for the food, especially {{TP|Goh|Raichu}}, and others for taking care of the order, something done by {{TP|Professor Cerise|Yamper}}.

Ren's Magnemite, Francois, was also seen at Cerise Laboratory. I tried to upload an image of Francois at the Lab, but I'm not sure how to add it.

''This article is about Ash's main and temporary traveling companions. If you were looking for a general list of people Ash has met on his journey, see [[Character of the day]].''

'''Ash's friends''' are the traveling companions that [[Ash Ketchum]] has had with him on his {{pkmn|journey}} on his quest to become a [[Pokémon Master]]. While he started his journey alone, many people have joined his party while touring the [[Pokémon world]]; usually at least one new companion joins—and another leaves—every time a new region is visited.

[[Johto]] is the only region where Ash did not acquire a new friend that would travel with him, excluding {{an|Brock}}, who came back after his [[S02|absence]].

In ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]'', Ash's friends are not traveling companions, but rather classmates, since Ash is attending the [[Pokémon School]] instead of traveling around the [[Alola]] region. Later in the series, Ash and his Alolan friends form a team under the supervision of [[Aether Foundation]], known as the [[Ultra Guardians]].

==[[Original series]]==
===Misty===
[[File:Misty SM.png|thumb|170px|{{an|Misty}}]]
{{main|Misty (anime)}}
Misty joined Ash in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]'', traveling with him because she wanted him to replace her [[Bicycle|bike]], which was destroyed by his {{AP|Pikachu}}. She would consistently travel with him until ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later!]]'', when she returned to [[Cerulean City]] to lead [[Cerulean Gym|her family's Gym]] nearly full-time. However, she briefly traveled to [[Hoenn]] and met up with Ash's ''[[Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire]]'' group in ''[[AG044|The Princess and the Togepi]]'' and ''[[AG045|A Togepi Mirage!]]''. Misty met the same group again from ''[[AG132|The Scheme Team]]'' until ''[[AG134|A Real Cleffa-Hanger]]'', when they accompanied her back home; and also in ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]''. After a long absence, she and Brock reappeared in ''[[SM042|Alola, Kanto!]]'' and ''[[SM043|When Regions Collide!]]'', where Ash and his classmates from the [[Pokémon School]] of [[Alola]] visited Kanto. She returned in ''[[SM102|Alola, Alola!]]'' and ''[[SM103|Heart of Fire! Heart of Stone!]]'', where she and Brock visited [[Melemele Island]]. She reunited with Ash again in ''[[JN138|A Fated Face-Off!]]'' and both of them decided to travel with each other again until ''[[JN147|The Rainbow and the Pokémon Master!]]''.

===Brock===
[[File:Brock SM.png|thumb|200px|{{an|Brock}}]]
{{main|Brock (anime)}}
Brock first joined Ash in ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' after Ash {{pkmn|battle}}d him in the [[Pewter City]] [[Pewter Gym|Gym]]. After his father {{ka|Flint}} offered to take over the duties of [[Gym Leader]], Brock followed Ash through [[Kanto]], leaving briefly from ''[[EP083|Poké Ball Peril]]'' to ''[[EP115|A Tent Situation]]'' to work for [[Professor Ivy]]. In ''[[EP116|The Rivalry Revival]]'', Brock returned to be with Ash and {{an|Misty}} until ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later!]]'', though he, unlike Misty, would return shortly, in ''[[AG004|You Can Never Taillow]]'', sticking with Ash until ''[[AG192|Home is Where the Start is!]]''. He would again return in ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]]'', and so traveled through [[Sinnoh]] with Ash until ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]''. He and Misty also appeared in ''[[SM042|Alola, Kanto!]]'' and ''[[SM043|When Regions Collide!]]'', where Ash and his classmates from [[Pokémon School]] visited Kanto, and returned in ''[[SM102|Alola, Alola!]]'' and ''[[SM103|Heart of Fire! Heart of Stone!]]'', where he and Misty visited [[Alola]]. Brock reunited with Ash and Dawn in ''[[JNS02|The Arceus Chronicles (Parts 2]]'' to ''[[JNS04|4)]]'', while also meeting Goh for the first time. He reunited with Ash and Misty again in ''[[JN139|Must Be Our Heroes and the Witch!]]'' and all of them decided to travel with each other again until ''[[JN147|The Rainbow and the Pokémon Master!]]''.

===Tracey Sketchit===
[[File:TraceyEP.png|thumb|170px|{{Tracey}}]]
{{main|Tracey Sketchit}}
After {{an|Brock}} left to work for Professor Ivy, Ash's traveling group was down to two, as it had been for the first five episodes of [[Kanto]]. However, this would not last very long, as in ''[[EP084|The Lost Lapras]]'' Ash met a [[Pokémon Watcher]] named {{Tracey}} who essentially invited himself along for the rest of the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]] saga. Traveling with Ash, he wished to attain his ultimate goal of meeting {{an|Professor Oak}}, which he did when Ash returned to Kanto in ''[[EP115|A Tent Situation]]''. After this, he remained in [[Pallet Town]] to be Professor Oak's assistant in ''[[EP116|The Rivalry Revival]]''. Ash has reunited with Tracey during his visits to Pallet Town in ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later!]]'', ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]'', ''[[AG192|Home is Where the Start Is!]]'', and ''[[JN147|The Rainbow and the Pokémon Master!]]''.

===May===
[[File:May AG.png|thumb|120px|{{an|May}}]]
{{main|May (anime)}}
Ash may have traveled to [[Hoenn]] alone; however, shortly after his arrival, he met {{an|May}}, a young girl who desired to travel around the world and a fellow Trainer who was just starting her journey and then ended up destroying her bike just like that of Misty. Though she initially did not care for {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, she eventually found [[Pokémon Contest]]s, in which she competed while in Hoenn and then later in [[Kanto]]. May traveled with Ash through the entire ''Advanced Generation'' saga, from ''[[AG001|Get the Show on the Road]]'' to ''[[AG192|Home is Where the Start Is!]]'', after which she went off to [[Johto]] to compete in Contests there. She, like {{an|Misty}}, reappeared briefly during ''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]'' to compete in the [[Wallace Cup]] from ''[[DP076|A Full Course Tag Battle!]]'' until ''[[DP079|Strategy with a Smile!]]''.

{{main|Max}}
Max is {{an|May}}'s younger brother. He does not have any Pokémon of his own because he is too young, but he often befriends certain Pokémon. He traveled with the group from ''[[AG003|There's no Place Like Hoenn]]'' until ''[[AG192|Home is Where the Start Is]]'', when he went home to [[Petalburg City]]. However, he made a promise to Ash that as soon as he got his own Pokémon, he would {{pkmn|battle}} Ash.

===Dawn===
[[File:Dawn JN.png|thumb|150px|{{an|Dawn}}]]
{{main|Dawn (anime)}}
Like his journey into [[Hoenn]], Ash ventured to [[Sinnoh]] alone, where, in ''[[DP003|When Pokémon Worlds Collide!]]'', he would meet {{an|Dawn}}, the daughter of a [[Top Coordinator]] wishing to follow in the footsteps of [[Johanna|her mother]]. From that point, after saving [[Ash's Pikachu]] and having her bike fried in a similar way to May's and Misty's, Dawn would travel with Ash and Brock through Sinnoh, which she did until ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]'' when all three friends split up.

Dawn rejoins Ash's group in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]'' in ''[[BW086|Piplup, Pansage, and a Meeting of the Times!]]'' to compete in the [[Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup]]. Dawn would leave the group in ''[[BW093|Goodbye, Junior Cup - Hello Adventure!]]'' and travel to Johto to compete in the [[Wallace Cup]].

Having returned from her journey in Johto and around the world, she met up with Ash again in ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'' during his research travel in Sinnoh with [[Goh]] to investigate {{p|Darkrai}} and {{p|Cresselia}} in ''[[JN074|Nightfall? Nightmares!]]'' and ''[[JN075|A Midsummer Night's Light!]]'', also meeting [[Chloe]] before meeting them. She met up with them again in ''[[JN089|The Gates of Warp!]]'' and ''[[JN090|Showdown at the Gates of Warp!]]'', helping to solve a crisis involving {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}. She reunited with Ash and Goh in ''[[JNS01|The Arceus Chronicles (Part 1]]'' through ''[[JNS04|4)]]'', and reunited with Ash and Chloe from ''[[JN129|A Flood of Torrential Gains!]]'' to ''[[JN132|Partners in Time!]]''.

===Lillie===
[[File:Lillie SM.png|thumb|125px|{{an|Lillie}}]]
{{main|Lillie (anime)}}
Lillie is one of Ash's classmates. Prior to ''[[SM008|Lillie's Egg-xhilarating Challenge!]]'', she was terrified of physically interacting with Pokémon, and tended to freeze up whenever one Pokémon entered her personal space. She was the second of Ash's classmates he would meet. She was watching a {{p|Tauros}} race between {{an|Lana}}, {{an|Mallow}} and {{an|Sophocles}} as Ash accidentally stumbled upon the racing track and spotted Lillie on the other side. They became classmates when Ash enrolled himself at the Pokémon School shortly thereafter.

Over the course of the series, Lillie adopted her [[starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]], [[Snowy]], overcame her fear of Pokémon, and reaffirmed her family bonds with her older brother {{an|Gladion}}, her estranged mother {{an|Lusamine}}, and learned more about her long-missing father, [[Mohn]]. In ''[[SM146|Thank You, Alola! The Journey Continues!]]'', Lillie left with her family on a journey in search of Mohn. She found her father in the [[Crown Tundra]] and reunited with Ash in ''[[JN111|The Homecoming Crown!]]'', while also meeting [[Goh]] and [[Chloe]] for the first time. Lillie returned home to Alola in the [[JN112|following episode]] with her family and friends.

Go!]]'', while he was pursuing a {{p|Lugia}} during a [[Raid Battle (GO)#In the anime|Raid Battle]], despite owning no Pokémon at the time. The duo later became [[Professor Cerise]]'s research assistants. Goh later caught his [[starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]] and partner, {{TP|Goh|Scorbunny}}, in ''[[JN005|Mind-Boggling Dynamax!]]'' during his first excursion to the [[Galar]] region. Goh has temporarily separated from Ash in ''[[JN032|Time After Time!]]'', ''[[JN042|Sword and Shield, Slumbering Weald!]]'', ''[[JN113|Chasing to the Finish!]]'', and ''[[JN127|Just a Scone's Throw From Here!]]''.

In ''[[JN136|This Could be the Start of Something Big!]]'', Goh officially parted ways from Ash when he decided to tour different regions alone in order to become a stronger Trainer who can equal Mew.

He used his ability to speak to humans and Pokémon many times during their travels together.

He later revealed their travels to be a facade to gain their trust for a mission, and reunited with [[Jessie]] and [[James]] in ''[[BW047|Crisis from the Underground Up!]]''.

===Solgaleo===
[[File:Nebby Solgaleo anime.png|thumb|250px|{{DL|Nebby#In the anime|Solgaleo}}]]
{{main|Nebby#In the anime|Nebby → In the anime}}
{{p|Solgaleo}}, previously known as Nebby, was a {{p|Cosmog}} that was briefly entrusted to Ash from ''[[SM044|A Dream Encounter!]]'' to ''[[SM054|10,000,000 Reasons to Fight!]]'' by {{p|Lunala}}, {{p|Solgaleo}} and the {{an|guardian deities}}. It was targeted by {{an|Faba}} due to its ability to open [[Ultra Wormhole]]s. In ''[[SM050|Faba's Revenge!]]'', it evolved into {{p|Cosmoem}}, and then in ''[[SM052|Revealing the Stuff of Legend!]]'', with the help of the Guardian deities, it evolved once more into {{p|Solgaleo}}. After Ash and his friends' adventures in the [[Ultra Deep Sea]] it disappeared in ''10,000,000 Reasons to Fight!'', making a short reappearance in ''[[SM055|The Professors' New Adventure!]]''.

Solgaleo would later appear in ''[[SM087|Filling the Light with Darkness!]]'', being pursued by {{an|Necrozma}}. In ''[[SM088|Full Moon and Many Arms!]]'', Solgaleo temporarily reunited with the [[Ultra Guardians]], but after freeing {{an|Lunala}} from Necrozma's absorption, Solgaleo was absorbed instead. It was freed during the final confrontation in ''[[SM090|Securing the Future!]]'', where it combined its power with Ash, {{an|Gladion}}, and Lunala to give enough Ultra Aura to Necrozma to return it to its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|Ultra form}}. After Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} said goodbye to {{AP|Poipole}}, Solgaleo and Lunala traveled back to Alola with the Ultra Guardians.

Shaymin is a [[wild Pokémon]] that {{an|Mallow}} cared for. It first appeared in ''[[SM108|Memories in the Mist!]]'', where it encountered Mallow after being drawn to her strong feelings of gratitude towards [[Mallow's mother|her late mother]]. Mallow then decided to take it in until the time came for it to turn into its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Shaymin|Sky Forme}} and fly away. In ''[[SM146|Thank You, Alola! The Journey Continues!]]'', Mallow's brother [[Ulu]] returned home, carrying flowers that turned out to be [[Gracidea]]s, which allowed Shaymin to change into its Sky Forme and fly away.

''This article is about Ash's main and temporary traveling companions. If you were looking for a general list of people Ash has met on his journey, see [[Character of the day]].''

[[File:Ash and friends JN OP 5.png|300px|thumb|Photographs of {{Ash}} and all of his friends]]
'''Ash's friends''' are the traveling companions that [[Ash Ketchum]] has had with him on his {{pkmn|journey}} on his quest to become a [[Pokémon Master]]. While he started his journey alone, many people have joined his party while touring the [[Pokémon world]]; usually at least one new companion joins—and another leaves—every time a new region is visited.

[[Johto]] is the only region where Ash did not acquire a new friend that would travel with him, excluding {{an|Brock}}, who came back after his [[S02|absence]].

In ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]'', Ash's friends are not traveling companions, but rather classmates, since Ash is attending the [[Pokémon School]] instead of traveling around the [[Alola]] region. Later in the series, Ash and his Alolan friends form a team under the supervision of [[Aether Foundation]], known as the [[Ultra Guardians]].

===Misty===
[[File:Misty SM.png|thumb|170px|{{an|Misty}}]]
{{main|Misty (anime)}}
Misty joined Ash in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]'', traveling with him because she wanted him to replace her [[Bicycle|bike]], which was destroyed by his {{AP|Pikachu}}. She would consistently travel with him until ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later!]]'', when she returned to [[Cerulean City]] to lead [[Cerulean Gym|her family's Gym]] nearly full-time. However, she briefly traveled to [[Hoenn]] and met up with Ash's ''[[Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire]]'' group in ''[[AG044|The Princess and the Togepi]]'' and ''[[AG045|A Togepi Mirage!]]''. Misty met the same group again from ''[[AG132|The Scheme Team]]'' until ''[[AG134|A Real Cleffa-Hanger]]'', when they accompanied her back home; and also in ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]''. After a long absence, she and Brock reappeared in ''[[SM042|Alola, Kanto!]]'' and ''[[SM043|When Regions Collide!]]'', where Ash and his classmates from the [[Pokémon School]] of [[Alola]] visited Kanto. She returned in ''[[SM102|Alola, Alola!]]'' and ''[[SM103|Heart of Fire! Heart of Stone!]]'', where she and Brock visited [[Melemele Island]]. She reunited with Ash again in ''[[JN138|A Fated Face-Off!]]'' and both of them decided to travel with each other again until ''[[JN147|The Rainbow and the Pokémon Master!]]''.

===Brock===
[[File:Brock SM.png|thumb|200px|{{an|Brock}}]]
{{main|Brock (anime)}}
Brock first joined Ash in ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' after Ash {{pkmn|battle}}d him in the [[Pewter City]] [[Pewter Gym|Gym]]. After his father {{ka|Flint}} offered to take over the duties of [[Gym Leader]], Brock followed Ash through [[Kanto]], leaving briefly from ''[[EP083|Poké Ball Peril]]'' to ''[[EP115|A Tent Situation]]'' to work for [[Professor Ivy]]. In ''[[EP116|The Rivalry Revival]]'', Brock returned to be with Ash and {{an|Misty}} until ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later!]]'', though he, unlike Misty, would return shortly, in ''[[AG004|You Can Never Taillow]]'', sticking with Ash until ''[[AG192|Home is Where the Start is!]]''. He would again return in ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]]'', and so traveled through [[Sinnoh]] with Ash until ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]''. He and Misty also appeared in ''[[SM042|Alola, Kanto!]]'' and ''[[SM043|When Regions Collide!]]'', where Ash and his classmates from [[Pokémon School]] visited Kanto, and returned in ''[[SM102|Alola, Alola!]]'' and ''[[SM103|Heart of Fire! Heart of Stone!]]'', where he and Misty visited [[Alola]]. Brock reunited with Ash and Dawn in ''[[JNS02|The Arceus Chronicles (Parts 2]]'' to ''[[JNS04|4)]]'', while also meeting Goh for the first time. He reunited with Ash and Misty again in ''[[JN139|Must Be Our Heroes and the Witch!]]'' and all of them decided to travel with each other again until ''[[JN147|The Rainbow and the Pokémon Master!]]''.

{{main|Tracey Sketchit}}
After {{an|Brock}} left to work for Professor Ivy, Ash's traveling group was down to two, as it had been for the first five episodes of [[Kanto]]. However, this would not last very long, as in ''[[EP084|The Lost Lapras]]'' Ash met a [[Pokémon Watcher]] named {{Tracey}} who essentially invited himself along for the rest of the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]] saga. Traveling with Ash, he wished to attain his ultimate goal of meeting {{an|Professor Oak}}, which he did when Ash returned to Kanto in ''[[EP115|A Tent Situation]]''. After this, he remained in [[Pallet Town]] to be Professor Oak's assistant in ''[[EP116|The Rivalry Revival]]''. Ash has reunited with Tracey during his visits to Pallet Town in ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later!]]'', ''[[AG133|The Right Place and the Right Mime]]'', ''[[AG192|Home is Where the Start Is!]]'', and ''[[JN147|The Rainbow and the Pokémon Master!]]''.

===May===
[[File:May AG.png|thumb|120px|{{an|May}}]]
{{main|May (anime)}}
Ash may have traveled to [[Hoenn]] alone; however, shortly after his arrival, he met {{an|May}}, a young girl who desired to travel around the world and a fellow Trainer who was just starting her journey and then ended up destroying her bike just like that of Misty. Though she initially did not care for {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, she eventually found [[Pokémon Contest]]s, in which she competed while in Hoenn and then later in [[Kanto]]. May traveled with Ash through the entire ''Advanced Generation'' saga, from ''[[AG001|Get the Show on the Road]]'' to ''[[AG192|Home is Where the Start Is!]]'', after which she went off to [[Johto]] to compete in Contests there. She, like {{an|Misty}}, reappeared briefly during ''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]'' to compete in the [[Wallace Cup]] from ''[[DP076|A Full Course Tag Battle!]]'' until ''[[DP079|Strategy with a Smile!]]''.

{{main|Max}}
Max is {{an|May}}'s younger brother. He does not have any Pokémon of his own because he is too young, but he often befriends certain Pokémon. He traveled with the group from ''[[AG003|There's no Place Like Hoenn]]'' until ''[[AG192|Home is Where the Start Is]]'', when he went home to [[Petalburg City]]. However, he made a promise to Ash that as soon as he got his own Pokémon, he would {{pkmn|battle}} Ash.

===Dawn===
[[File:Dawn JN.png|thumb|150px|{{an|Dawn}}]]
{{main|Dawn (anime)}}
Like his journey into [[Hoenn]], Ash ventured to [[Sinnoh]] alone, where, in ''[[DP003|When Pokémon Worlds Collide!]]'', he would meet {{an|Dawn}}, the daughter of a [[Top Coordinator]] wishing to follow in the footsteps of [[Johanna|her mother]]. From that point, after saving [[Ash's Pikachu]] and having her bike fried in a similar way to May's and Misty's, Dawn would travel with Ash and Brock through Sinnoh, which she did until ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]'' when all three friends split up.

Dawn rejoins Ash's group in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]'' in ''[[BW086|Piplup, Pansage, and a Meeting of the Times!]]'' to compete in the [[Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup]]. Dawn would leave the group in ''[[BW093|Goodbye, Junior Cup - Hello Adventure!]]'' and travel to Johto to compete in the [[Wallace Cup]].

Having returned from her journey in Johto and around the world, she met up with Ash again in ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'' during his research travel in Sinnoh with [[Goh]] to investigate {{p|Darkrai}} and {{p|Cresselia}} in ''[[JN074|Nightfall? Nightmares!]]'' and ''[[JN075|A Midsummer Night's Light!]]'', also meeting [[Chloe]] before meeting them. She met up with them again in ''[[JN089|The Gates of Warp!]]'' and ''[[JN090|Showdown at the Gates of Warp!]]'', helping to solve a crisis involving {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}. She reunited with Ash and Goh in ''[[JNS01|The Arceus Chronicles (Part 1]]'' through ''[[JNS04|4)]]'', and reunited with Ash and Chloe from ''[[JN129|A Flood of Torrential Gains!]]'' to ''[[JN132|Partners in Time!]]''.

{{main|Lillie (anime)}}
Lillie is one of Ash's classmates. Prior to ''[[SM008|Lillie's Egg-xhilarating Challenge!]]'', she was terrified of physically interacting with Pokémon, and tended to freeze up whenever one Pokémon entered her personal space. She was the second of Ash's classmates he would meet. She was watching a {{p|Tauros}} race between {{an|Lana}}, {{an|Mallow}} and {{an|Sophocles}} as Ash accidentally stumbled upon the racing track and spotted Lillie on the other side. They became classmates when Ash enrolled himself at the Pokémon School shortly thereafter.

Over the course of the series, Lillie adopted her [[starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]], [[Snowy]], overcame her fear of Pokémon, and reaffirmed her family bonds with her older brother {{an|Gladion}}, her estranged mother {{an|Lusamine}}, and learned more about her long-missing father, [[Mohn]]. In ''[[SM146|Thank You, Alola! The Journey Continues!]]'', Lillie left with her family on a journey in search of Mohn. She found her father in the [[Crown Tundra]] and reunited with Ash in ''[[JN111|The Homecoming Crown!]]'', while also meeting [[Goh]] and [[Chloe]] for the first time. Lillie returned home to Alola in the [[JN112|following episode]] with her family and friends.

===Goh===
[[File:Goh JN.png|thumb|125px|[[Goh]]]]
{{main|Goh}}
Goh is a {{pkmn|Trainer}} who had a chance encounter with {{an|Mew}} when he was younger. His goal as a Trainer is to catch Mew, and his dream is to eventually catch every Pokémon in existence. Goh first met {{Ash}} in his [[hometown]] of [[Vermilion City]] in ''[[JN002|Legend? Go! Friends? Go!]]'', while he was pursuing a {{p|Lugia}} during a [[Raid Battle (GO)#In the anime|Raid Battle]], despite owning no Pokémon at the time. The duo later became [[Professor Cerise]]'s research assistants. Goh later caught his [[starter Pokémon|first Pokémon]] and partner, {{TP|Goh|Scorbunny}}, in ''[[JN005|Mind-Boggling Dynamax!]]'' during his first excursion to the [[Galar]] region. Goh has temporarily separated from Ash in ''[[JN032|Time After Time!]]'', ''[[JN042|Sword and Shield, Slumbering Weald!]]'', ''[[JN113|Chasing to the Finish!]]'', and ''[[JN127|Just a Scone's Throw From Here!]]''. In ''[[JN071|Leaping Toward the Dream!]]'', Goh joined the [[Project Mew]] research team in the hopes of furthering his dream. In ''[[JN136|This Could be the Start of Something Big!]]'', Goh officially parted ways from Ash when he decided to tour different regions alone in order to become a stronger Trainer who can equal Mew.

After meeting Ho-Oh, Verity left Ash and Sorrel to continue on her own journey.

The group nursed him back to health and invited him to accompany them so as to protect him from Trainers wanting to capture the only talking {{p|Meowth}} in Unova. He used his ability to speak to humans and Pokémon many times during their travels together.

He later revealed their travels to be a facade to gain their trust for a mission, and reunited with [[Jessie]] and [[James]] in ''[[BW047|Crisis from the Underground Up!]]''.

{{main|Nebby#In the anime|Nebby → In the anime}}
{{p|Solgaleo}}, previously known as Nebby, was a {{p|Cosmog}} that was briefly entrusted to Ash from ''[[SM044|A Dream Encounter!]]'' to ''[[SM054|10,000,000 Reasons to Fight!]]'' by {{p|Lunala}}, {{p|Solgaleo}} and the {{an|guardian deities}}. It was targeted by {{an|Faba}} due to its ability to open [[Ultra Wormhole]]s. In ''[[SM050|Faba's Revenge!]]'', it evolved into {{p|Cosmoem}}, and then in ''[[SM052|Revealing the Stuff of Legend!]]'', with the help of the Guardian deities, it evolved once more into {{p|Solgaleo}}. After Ash and his friends' adventures in the [[Ultra Deep Sea]] it disappeared in ''10,000,000 Reasons to Fight!'', making a short reappearance in ''[[SM055|The Professors' New Adventure!]]''.

Solgaleo would later appear in ''[[SM087|Filling the Light with Darkness!]]'', being pursued by {{an|Necrozma}}. In ''[[SM088|Full Moon and Many Arms!]]'', Solgaleo temporarily reunited with the [[Ultra Guardians]], but after freeing {{an|Lunala}} from Necrozma's absorption, Solgaleo was absorbed instead. It was freed during the final confrontation in ''[[SM090|Securing the Future!]]'', where it combined its power with Ash, {{an|Gladion}}, and Lunala to give enough Ultra Aura to Necrozma to return it to its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|Ultra form}}. After Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} said goodbye to {{AP|Poipole}}, Solgaleo and Lunala traveled back to Alola with the Ultra Guardians.

{{main|Mallow's Shaymin}}
Shaymin is a [[wild Pokémon]] that {{an|Mallow}} cared for. It first appeared in ''[[SM108|Memories in the Mist!]]'', where it encountered Mallow after being drawn to her strong feelings of gratitude towards [[Mallow's mother|her late mother]]. Mallow then decided to take it in until the time came for it to turn into its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Shaymin|Sky Forme}} and fly away. In ''[[SM146|Thank You, Alola! The Journey Continues!]]'', Mallow's brother [[Ulu]] returned home, carrying flowers that turned out to be [[Gracidea]]s, which allowed Shaymin to change into its Sky Forme and fly away.

'''Serena''' (Japanese: '''セレナ''' ''Serena'') is a [[Pokémon Performer]] and a former {{ashfr|traveling companion}} of {{Ash}}, who debuted in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]''. Her {{pkmn2|starter|first Pokémon}} was a {{TP|Serena|Fennekin}} that she received from [[Professor Sycamore]]. In ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'', she is revealed to have become a successful [[Pokémon Coordinator]] as well.

==In the anime==
===History===
====Pre-series====
[[File:Young Serena.png|thumb|left|250px|Young Serena]]
Serena grew up in [[Vaniville Town]] in the [[Kalos]] region with her mother, {{kal|Grace}}. During her childhood, Serena was taught about {{p|Rhyhorn}} racing by her mother, who was a famous Rhyhorn racer, and to know how to handle the {{pkmn|category|Spikes Pokémon}}. Serena also practiced riding {{p|Skiddo}}, but she got scared during one of her practices and hugged her mother for comfort.

Sometime later, Serena was sent to [[Kanto]] against her will to attend a [[Pokémon Summer Camp]], which was hosted by {{an|Professor Oak}}. One day while at the camp, she got lost in a nearby forest and was startled by a {{p|Poliwag}}, falling over and hurting her knee. She then met [[Ash Ketchum]], who was looking for the same Poliwag and spotted Serena. Noticing her knee injury, he pulled out a handkerchief and wrapped it around her wounded knee, saying that it is a good-luck charm and that the pain would go away. However, when Serena's knee continued to hurt, Ash told her "Don't give up till it's over" and helped her up, before escorting her out of the forest. Afterwards, she returned to Kalos, bringing along the handkerchief and the memory of her meeting with Ash.
{{-}}

====''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]''====
Serena debuted in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]'', where she was forcibly woken up by her mother's {{p|Fletchling}}. In ''[[XY002|Lumiose City Pursuit!]]'', she attempted to practice Rhyhorn racing after being encouraged by her mother. However, Serena's attempts at controlling her mother's Rhyhorn ended with her being sent crashing into the ground.

Later that evening, Serena complained about her earlier practice leaving several scratches on her face. She sat down to watch a news report on an incident that was occurring in [[Lumiose City]]. On the screen, she saw Ash trying to calm down a rampaging {{p|Garchomp}} at Prism Tower and recognized Ash as a boy she had known in her childhood. The next day, while feeding Rhyhorn, Serena thought aloud that something interesting was going to happen and that it involved Ash.

Serena began her [[Pokémon journey]] in ''[[XY003|A Battle of Aerial Mobility!]]'' when she set off to {{an|Professor Sycamore}}'s lab in Lumiose City. Immediately upon arriving, Serena questioned the Professor about the boy on television and he confirmed that it was indeed Ash Ketchum. However, to Serena's disappointment, Ash had already left Lumiose City for the [[Santalune City]] [[Santalune Gym|Gym]] the previous day. Serena was then offered to choose her [[starter Pokémon]].

In ''[[XY004|A Shockingly Cheeky Friendship!]]'', Serena chose {{TP|Serena|Fennekin}}, received a [[Pokédex]], and started her journey. Later that day, she continued to travel with Fennekin, but didn't want to camp out for the night after seeing some wild {{p|Venipede}}. She was attacked by a wild {{p|Vespiquen}} that she mistook for a person, only for Fennekin to scare Vespiquen away. Afterward, Serena met a [[Nurse Joy]], who told her where to find the nearest Pokémon Center.

In ''[[XY005|A Blustery Santalune Gym Battle!]]'', she finally reached Santalune City and found Ash during his [[Gym]] battle with [[Viola]]. She introduced herself to him, {{an|Clemont}}, and {{an|Bonnie}}, after returning his backpack when it was left behind at the Gym. At the end of the episode, she asks Ash if he remembers her, at which point the episode abruptly ends.

In ''[[XY006|Battling on Thin Ice!]]'', she revealed that the two of them met at the Pokémon Summer Camp when they were younger. Although Ash remembered the camp, he didn't specifically remember meeting Serena, much to her disappointment. Serena quickly regained her composure and reminded him that he once told her to never give up. Hearing these words helped Ash continue his training in order to win the rematch against Viola. During the rematch, Ash was visibly becoming overwhelmed by Viola's battling strategy, but Serena yelled at him to never give up. The inspiration that he had once given Serena was now being given to him, and these words encouraged him to continue the battle. At the end of the episode, after winning the Bug Badge, Ash asked Serena what her plans for the future were.

Serena officially began traveling with Ash and his friends in ''[[XY007|Giving Chase at the Rhyhorn Race!]]''. This was when Serena revealed why she began her journey in the first place. After seeing Ash on TV, she decided that she would begin a Pokémon journey in order to return the handkerchief he used to mend her knee injury. After she returned the handkerchief, Ash remembered their encounter and called her the "girl with the straw hat".

Later on, Serena helped teach Ash how to ride and race on a Rhyhorn when he expressed an interest in Rhyhorn racing. While doing so, Serena's opinion on Rhyhorn and Rhyhorn riding quickly changed when the Rhyhorn were very friendly towards her. Later, while she was helping Ash learn to ride, she called out similar words Serena's mother had yelled to her during her Rhyhorn riding lessons at home. At that moment, Serena realized that she had misjudged the sport of Rhyhorn racing and that perhaps she did not hate it as much as she thought. Serena expressed in the same episode that she did not dislike Rhyhorn racing but that she wanted to find a goal that she likes even more.

The next day, Ash was captured by {{TRT}} and Serena had to help rescue him. This was when Serena had her first Pokémon battle, commanding Fennekin to use {{m|Ember}} on the criminals. At the end of the episode, she gave Ash a pouch of cookies, saying it was her way of thanking him for all he had done for her.

In ''[[XY009|Clemont's Got a Secret!]]'', Serena learned from Clemont's father, [[Meyer]], that Clemont is the Lumiose City [[Gym Leader]]. Although initially angry with Clemont for keeping this secret from her along with Ash, she helped take back the [[Gym]] from the malfunctioning [[Clembot]]. She battled [[Clemont's Magneton]] with her Fennekin, but it managed to avoid Fennekin's attack, forcing {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{AP|Froakie}} to step in and defeat it. Later, she watched Clemont battle and defeat Clembot for the control of the [[Lumiose Gym]].

[[File:Miette and Serena.png|thumb|220px|Serena and Miette]]
In ''[[XY021|A Pokévision of Things to Come!]]'', Serena decided to make a [[Pokévision]] video. After watching some sample Pokévision videos in the Pokémon Center, Serena decided to make one of her own with her Fennekin. She rented a camera and began filming with Fennekin. The two of them dressed up in multiple outfits and the video featured them posing and baking together. However, during the filming of the video, Fennekin was captured by Team Rocket. Serena was able to rescue Fennekin, and in the process she remembered all that they had been through together. Her feelings of [[friendship]] were conveyed to her Pokémon, and Fennekin was able to learn {{m|Flamethrower}} in the battle against Team Rocket. After this event, Serena was able to finish her filming and was proud of her final product.

In ''[[XY026|A Battle by Any Other Name!]]'', Serena participated in the [[Poké Puff Contest]], but she did not emerge victorious. Before the event, she met another competitor named [[Miette]]. The two of them compared their [[Poké Puff]]s to see whose were superior, which led to a spark of rivalry between them. After comparing the two Poké Puffs, the group realized that Serena's Poké Puffs were more suited for [[human]]'s tastes than Pokémon's. This was part of the reason that Serena was not able to win the Poké Puff competition.

Serena had her first official Pokémon battle in ''[[XY039|Summer of Discovery!]]'' against {{an|Shauna}}. Shauna and her friends, {{an|Tierno}} and {{an|Trevor}}, had seen the Pokévision video that Serena filmed in Lumiose City and recognized her from it. Serena accepted Shauna's challenge, and alongside Fennekin she faced off against Shauna and her {{p|Bulbasaur}}. Despite having a type advantage, Serena was unable to win. Serena talked with Shauna throughout the episode, and learned that Shauna was aiming to be someone who could put on performances with Pokémon. Her conversations with Shauna were a catalyst in helping her realize that she was the only one of her friends that didn't have a set goal. At the end of the episode, Serena sat alone brushing Fennekin's tail and wondering what her dream was.

In ''[[XY040|Day Three Blockbusters!]]'', Shauna informed Serena about [[Pokémon Showcase]]s and told her that she was planning on becoming a [[Pokémon Performer]], and this inspired Serena to become one as well. In ''[[XY047|Dreaming a Performer's Dream!]]'', Serena witnessed her first Pokémon Showcase. She saw an exhibition performance by {{an|Aria}}, the current Kalos Queen, and also saw a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Pancham}} interrupt a contestant's performance on stage. Later, outside, that same Pancham stole Ash and Clemont's belongings. Serena managed to track Pancham down and saw that he was putting on a performance with no one around. This made her realize Pancham loved performing and simply wanted to show that to everyone. With this in mind she announced to her friends she wanted to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it. Battling with Fennekin, she managed to weaken and successfully catch it. After that, Serena gave Pancham a pair of her favorite sunglasses.

In ''[[XY053|A Race for Home!]]'', she met up with her mother, but at first didn't dare to tell her about her intention to be a Performer. Later, Serena finally told her mother about her dream and challenged her to a Rhyhorn race in order to prove her determination under the condition that if she lost she would go back home and train to become a Rhyhorn racer. However, her mother suggested that they race on {{p|Skiddo}}, knowing that Skiddo could sense the rider's feelings. Serena managed to beat her mother in the race when the Skiddo she was riding sensed her determination, and thus her mother gave her permission to become a Pokémon Performer.

In ''[[XY059|Under the Pledging Tree!]]'', after helping her friends thwart Team Rocket's plot to crash the Pledging Tree festival and returning the stolen presents to their rightful owners, Serena gave a ribbon to Fennekin and new sunglasses to {{TP|Serena|Pancham}} in honor of the event. The group then found a present not addressed to a Pokémon, but to Serena herself. The present was a new dress for the upcoming Coumarine Showcase from her mother, left under the care of Nurse Joy. At the end of the episode, Ash gave Serena the blue ribbon he had won in a giveaway from the Coumarine Monorail staff.

In ''[[XY060|A Showcase Debut!]]'', she made her debut as a Pokémon Performer in the [[Coumarine City]] [[Pokémon Showcase]] Rookie Class, along with Shauna and Jessie. However, during the Theme Performance, Fennekin tripped over a bow that Serena had decorated her with. This eliminated her from the competition, and she watched as Shauna went on to win the Showcase. Although Serena acted like she took the loss well, in private she was very upset. Early the next morning, she walked out to a pier with Fennekin and Pancham, finally releasing her bottled up feelings and began to cry inconsolably. Having comfort and reassurance from her two partners, she drew scissors from her [[Bag|backpack]] and cut her hair to her shoulders after a reflection on her journey so far. Later, she donned a new outfit, featuring the ribbon she received from Ash, to signify her resolve.

After this, Serena continued to practice for her next Pokémon Showcase. However, in ''[[XY064|Battling with Elegance and a Big Smile!]]'', one of these training sessions went wrong when Serena ended up yelling at Fennekin and Pancham after they were fighting, leading to Fennekin accidentally hitting Serena with Flamethrower. Realizing what she had done and feeling useless as a Performer, Serena ran off in shame. She was later approached by a {{an|Aria|young woman calling herself Ariana}} and the two spent the rest of the day shopping together. During this time, Ariana learned what Serena had been through and encouraged her to make up with her Pokémon and remember the close bond they had, which Serena did later that evening. The two girls later had a [[Double Battle]], during which Fennekin evolved into Braixen, but the match was called off after Ariana was forced to leave when she got a call. The next day, Serena discovered that "Ariana" was in fact Aria all along (having previously felt she looked familiar) and secretly thanked her for all her help.

In ''[[XY080|Performing with Fiery Charm!]]'', Serena participated in her second Pokémon Showcase, competing against Miette and a disguised Jessie. She passed through the first round, the Poké Puff Baking competition, with flying colors. However, prior to her Freestyle Performance, Jessie bumped into her, ripping her dress. Thanks to the never-give-up attitude she learned from Ash, as well as her own quick thinking and skill at tailoring, Serena was able to modify the dress just before she was called up. During the second round, she delivered a performance that left the audience very impressed. As a result, she was the most voted Performer, winning the competition and receiving her first {{DL|Pokémon Showcase|Princess Key}} despite the anxiety she still felt from her debut performance.

After arriving in [[Anistar City]] in ''[[XY091|A Performance Pop Quiz!]]'', Serena participated in her third Pokémon Showcase. In the Theme Performance, she was able to beat Nini and {{kal|Lily}} in the Pokémon Quiz segment, earning her a spot in the Freestyle Performance. However, before she could go on stage, her {{TP|Serena|Eevee}} went missing after being scared by the performance Jessie had delivered and Serena left to find her, almost missing her performance in the process. After reuniting with Eevee and receiving her support, Serena gave her performance using choreography based on Eevee's dancing, which earned her enough votes to win the Showcase and obtain her second Princess Key.

In ''[[XY101|A Dancing Debut!]]'', Serena participated in her fourth Pokémon Showcase. During the Theme Performance, she and her Pancham were able to bake a Poké Puff while entertaining the audience in the process. Thanks to their performance, Serena received enough votes to advance to the Freestyle Performance. In the Freestyle Performance, Serena used her Braixen and Eevee. Everything was going smoothly until Eevee got distracted by the crowd and fell to the ground. Eevee was discouraged until Serena motivated her to keep on dancing. Serena and her Pokémon finished their performance without any more problems, but Eevee's mishap caused Serena to lose the Showcase. Later, Serena comforted Eevee and assured her they would do better next time.

In ''[[XY105|Party Dancecapades!]]'', Serena and Eevee attended a dance party hosted by [[Monsieur Pierre]] with Clemont and Bunnelby as their partners. She was upset, because she couldn't dance with Ash. Later when she battled alongside Ash against Miette and James, her Eevee evolved into Sylveon.

In ''[[XY109|Master Class Choices!]]'', Serena entered the {{ci|Fleurrh}} Showcase Rookie Class in hopes of winning her third and final Princess Key. In the Theme Performance, in which Performers had to lure as many Rhyhorn as possible to their part of the field before time ran out, Serena easily defeated [[Concetta]] and [[Kazalie]] and advanced to the Freestyle Performance. There, she performed with Braixen, Pancham, and Sylveon. Their performance was well received by the audience and she was the most voted Performer of the round. As a result, she was declared the winner of the event, receiving the Fleurrh City Princess Key and qualifying for the Master Class.

[[File:Serena Master Class.png|thumb|250px|Serena in the Master Class]]
Serena entered the {{ci|Gloire}} Showcase Master Class in ''[[XY112|Master Class is in Session!]]'' where she met up with all of her [[rival]]s. In the first round, she was grouped with [[Miette]] and [[Sara Lee]]. Her performance received the highest number of votes and she quickly made her way to the semifinals of the competition, where she found herself up against {{an|Shauna}} and [[Jessie|Jessilee]]. In [[XY113|the following episode]], she tried a risky move and ended up bruising her wrist. She was about to fall but Sylveon helped Serena using her feelers, saving the performance. She was the most voted Performer of the round and as such was allowed to move on to the finals, where she faced the reigning {{DL|Pokémon Performer|Kalos Queen}} {{an|Aria}}. Despite her best efforts, Serena couldn't defeat Aria, who retained her title. After that, Serena was approached by Palermo who invited her to become her protégé so she could become a better performer and have a chance at becoming the next Kalos Queen. Serena, however, declined the offer, telling Palermo that her journey with her friends has helped her develop, and until she finishes she can't go with Palermo. Palermo told Serena to call her after she finishes her journey and gives Serena her business card before leaving off.

In ''[[XY115|Battling at Full Volume!]]'', Serena decided to pose as Ash who had gotten a cold from training with Greninja and Pikachu, to face off against an eccentric {{tc|guitarist}} named [[Jimmy (XY115)|Jimmy]] with Ash's Pikachu against his Pikachu, Spike. Her disguise pulls through and they ended up battling well against each other before almost getting exposed by Clemont and Bonnie. As she continued the battle, Pikachu and Spike were captured by Team Rocket, by which then Jessie managed to see through her disguise to her dismay. Upon Ash's recovery, she discarded her disguise and commanded her Pokémon to simultaneously attack Team Rocket, who were eventually sent blasting off by Pikachu and Spike in the end. She apologized to Jimmy for deceiving him and invited him to join her and the others for lunch.

In ''[[XY121|Seeing the Forest for the Trees!]]'', Serena became concerned about Ash when he became depressed after his defeat in a Gym battle with [[Wulfric]]. When he ran off into the woods, she chased after him on her own. Serena found Ash in the middle of the woods, still despondent over his defeat. She began to talk with Ash, telling him she was helped by the advice he gave her when they were young during their journey together, and also while she was training for her Showcases. However, the agitated Ash yelled at her, causing Serena to become angry at him for not acting like himself. In response, she threw a few snowballs at Ash before leaving. When it began to snow, Serena grew concerned about Ash again and led the others to find him. Meanwhile, Ash reflected on his actions and Serena's words. Later in the episode, Ash apologized to Serena for yelling at her and also told her that he was able to "figure things out" thanks to her words of encouragement.

In ''[[XY132|A Towering Takeover!]]'', she helped destroy some of the giant roots that were attacking Lumiose City, which [[Z2]] was causing. In [[XY133|the following episode]], she spearheaded a mission to rescue [[Chespie]] from [[Lysandre Labs]] with the help of [[Mairin]] and Professor Sycamore. While on their way to Lysandre Labs, a friendly news crew offered to take them there in their helicopter.

In ''[[XY134|The Right Hero for the Right Job!]]'', she initially fought [[Mable]] when the latter attacked their helicopter using her {{p|Weavile}}, although {{Steven}} eventually came to help them. When [[Celosia]] attempted to stop them, the news crew revealed themselves to be Team Rocket and faced Celosia in battle, allowing Serena and the rest to save Chespie. She then battled multiple grunts with difficulty, but Steven managed to catch up and help take them out.

In ''[[XY135|Rocking Kalos Defenses!]]'', she called Ash using the device Clemont gave them, asking him to find Clemont inside the gym. She, along with Mairin, Steven and Sycamore started investigating the research conducted by Team Flare. Before Steven could explain what he found, the [[Giant Rock]] was activated and absorbed Chespie, causing the building to collapse. The four of them tailed the Giant Rock towards [[Anistar City]] while Serena informed Ash, Alain, Clemont, Blaziken Mask and Bonnie about the current situation of Chespie. She, along with Sycamore and Steven then fought the Giant Rock using Braixen, Garchomp and Metagross. Her Braixen was thrown off Metagross by some of the vines from the Giant Rock, but Alain's Charizard managed to save her in time. After Ash managed to get Greninja launch a {{m|Water Shuriken}} at Chespie's location in the Giant Rock, she assisted Steven, Sycamore and Alain to fight their way through, but none of their attacks were able to hold it off.

[[File:Serena and Aria.png|thumb|left|250px|Serena and Aria]]
In ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]'', after all the Gym Leaders, including [[Diantha]], arrived to help Ash and his friends, Serena stayed behind to protect Mairin and Bonnie while the rest used their Pokémon's abilities to fight their way through the Giant Rock. A few large vines surrounded the three of them but Serena managed to have Braixen, Pancham and Sylveon to prevent them from getting hurt. Serena then rushed to protect Mairin as a vine was heading towards her direction, but was saved by Ash and Alain managing to rescue Chespie in time. All of them then tried to attack the Giant Rock but ended up injuring themselves instead. Squishy and Z2 managed to transform into the Complete Forme and battled the Giant Rock and defeat [[Lysandre]]. Serena then reunites with Ash, Clemont and Bonnie and watches Bonnie say goodbye to Squishy as it leaves along with Z2.

In ''[[XY137|Battling With a Clean Slate!]]'', Serena helped Bonnie to clean the Lumiose Gym in preparation for the relighting of Prism Tower. Later, she went with Ash, Clemont and Bonnie to Professor Sycamore's Lab when they heard Alain was returning, only to find Mairin on the floor with decorations all over her. She helped Mairin bake the cake for the welcome party that Mairin decided to host. When Alain entered the lab, they all welcomed him and had a feast together with Professor Sycamore. Later, along with Ash, Alain and Clemont, Serena battled and managed to defeat Team Rocket who were trying to steal Pikachu again. The next day, she watched the battle between [[Clembot]] and [[Alvin]], with Alvin coming out as the winner. After the gym battle, Professor Sycamore gave out medals to Serena, her Pokémon, as well as to Ash, Clemont, Bonnie, Mairin, Alain and their Pokémon. All of them gathered and posed for the group photo with the medals.

At night, Ash, Serena, Clemont and Bonnie watched as Prism Tower relights. Clemont asks what Serena is going to do to which she was hesitating to accept the offer Palermo gave earlier. Ash cheered her on and Serena happily thanks him for his constant support.

In ''[[XY138|The First Day of the Rest of Your Life!]]'', Serena saw on the news that the residents of Lumiose City were still recovering from injuries and decided to ask Professor Sycamore to help host a Pokémon Showcase event. Serena, Shauna, and even Jessilee put up a collaboration performance which made the residents smile and enjoy themselves. By witnessing how everyone started dancing along and smiling, Serena realized how much she actually loves performing and wants to do more. The next day, after saying goodbye to her mother, Ash asked Serena for a battle after seeing her lost in thoughts. Serena agreed as Ash said by battling, she would be able to decide what's next for her. During the battle, Serena was able to work well with Braixen and use her techniques well against Ash's Pikachu. Ash called off the battle and encouraged Serena that she always has her Pokémon by her side and he would be rooting for her. After the battle, Serena called Palermo, making her final answer to reject Palermo's offer. Serena told her seeing how everyone was smiling during her performance earlier that made her want to travel more and make more people smile like Aria and improve her skills. Palermo advised her to compete in [[Pokémon Contest]]s in [[Hoenn]] and Serena happily agreed. After that, she announced to the group that she will be going to visit other regions to further develop her skills as a Performer, starting with Hoenn.

[[File:Serena arriving in Hoenn.png|thumb|250px|Serena arriving in Hoenn]]
In ''[[XY139|Facing the Needs of the Many!]]'', just before she, Ash, and the others were heading back to the Lumiose airport, a big plant pops up. After Xerosic captures Clemont and when the van drives away, Ash-Greninja jumps in front of the van, which frightens Serena. Later, Serena goes with Ash and Bonnie to rescue Clemont by jumping from the top of a cliff and then getting rescued by Ash-Greninja's tongue. After Clemont gets rescued and Xerosic arrested, she, along with the others bid farewell to Ash's Greninja, which goes along with Squishy and Z2 to find the negative energy where those roots were spawning.

In ''[[XY140|Till We Compete Again!]]'', Serena officially left the group to follow Palermo's advice and travel the Hoenn region. At the airport, Serena told Ash she vowed to become better, especially for him the next time they met. She then leaned towards him, and the scene heavily implies that she gave him a kiss on the lips, with Clemont, Bonnie, Pikachu, and Dedenne all shocked and Ash left momentarily stunned. Serena then thanked him for the journey and his guidance before leaving. She was last seen happily arriving in Hoenn.

====''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''====
[[File:Serena JN.png|thumb|250px|left|Serena in ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'']]
In the time since she started traveling alone, Serena became a rising star in [[Hoenn]] and garnered a lot of local attention in [[Lilycove City]]. She also became friends with Hoenn's top contest idol, [[Lisia]], and helped her to liven up the local Contests.
[[File:Serena and Lisia.png|thumb|250px|Serena and Lisia]]
Serena reappeared in ''[[JN105|Reuniting for the First Time!]]'', where she met [[Chloe]] and her {{TP|Chloe|Eevee}}. After giving her some suggestions for her future and encouraging her to take part in a Pokémon Contest Spectacular, Serena participated in the event as well. While Chloe participated in the {{OBP|Rank|Contest|Normal Rank}} Contest Spectacular, Serena took part in the Master Rank competition, tying for first place with Lisia. As Chloe was departing at the docks, Serena revealed that Lisia approached her after the Contest to ask if she wanted to team up with her and form an idol duo together, to which Serena is unsure about as of yet. Serena also briefly met [[Goh]] and reunited with Ash as they boarded their boat; the two promised to keep cheering for each other as they parted ways again, all while Serena waved goodbye and waited at the docks while watching Ash depart.

In ''[[JN132|Partners in Time!]]'', Serena appeared alongside {{an|May}}, [[Max]], and Lisia, watching Ash's [[Masters Eight Tournament]] match against {{an|Leon}}. Soon after, when Pikachu was at the limit of his strength, Serena, May, and Max were shown to be anxious about the state of the battle, each holding on to another for comfort.

Serena reappeared in a fantasy in ''[[JN135|Heroes Unite!]]'', alongside the Trainers Chloe and her Eevee had met.

====Other appearances====
Serena made a cameo appearance in the ending credits of ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]''. She appears using her original look.

===Character===
[[File:Grace and Serena.png|thumb|left|250px|Serena and her mother]]
Serena is a kind and polite girl, but she can also be openly rebellious towards her [[mother]], {{kal|Grace}}. In ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]'', she refused to wake up when Grace ordered her to, and gave a sassy response to her mother's call to watch the news. This tumultuous relationship was best demonstrated when Grace made her practice {{p|Rhyhorn}} riding, an activity Serena had hated doing. However, their relationship is also very loving as shown in later episodes. Although shown to have a strong will, Serena can be sensitive and insecure at times as seen in ''[[XY064|Battling with Elegance and a Big Smile!]]''. When she was frustrated with her Pokémon, she lashes out when at her limit and leaves to cool off in shame. She is also shown to lose her composure when pushed to a wall, becoming unsure of herself. Despite this however, Serena manages to pick herself back up by reminding herself to not give up, bringing up her confidence and also encouraging her Pokémon to do their best despite the odds. This is shown when two of [[Serena's Braixen|her]] [[Serena's Sylveon|Pokémon]] evolve from responding to her resolve. While battling isn't her primary focus, Serena has shown herself to be a competent battler, at least partially due to picking up Ash's battling style after seeing him battle countless times.
[[File:Sky Trainer Serena.png|thumb|250px|Serena's {{tc|Sky Trainer}} outfit]]
Serena was uncertain what paths or career to pursue in life and expressed little ambition towards becoming a full-time [[Pokémon Trainer]] in the early stages of her journey. However, in ''[[XY039|Summer of Discovery!]]'', she began to think that not having an established goal was a problem for her future as a Trainer. During her time in the [[Pokémon Summer Camp]], she began seriously considering what she wanted to do with herself and {{cat|Serena's Pokémon|her Pokémon}} after seeing how passionate the Trainers around her were. It was in ''[[XY047|Dreaming a Performer's Dream!]]'' that she decided that her goal was to be a [[Pokémon Performer]] and she has been diligently training both herself and her Pokémon ever since. After losing her first [[Pokémon Showcase]], Serena strengthened her resolve to do even better, and to symbolize this she cut her hair short.

Unlike with {{an|Dawn}}, Serena chose to not follow in her mother's footsteps as a Rhyhorn racer. However, she is shown to be a competent Rhyhorn racer and is quite knowledgeable about them. She possesses a unique charm when it comes to Rhyhorn, possibly due to her upbringing, as nearly all of those that she encounters gravitate towards her playfully as seen in ''[[XY007|Giving Chase at the Rhyhorn Race!]]'' and ''[[XY109|Master Class Choices!]]''. Due to her mother's training, she is able to easily tame Rhyhorn and manage them well. Additionally because of those skills, she is also able to calmly guide a Mamoswine through a steep hill in ''[[XY083|Over the Mountain of Snow!]]''.
[[File:Serena catches a Pokémon.png|thumb|left|250px|Serena after catching a Pokémon]]
Serena has been shown to have a phobia of the supernatural. When {{ashfr|the group}} entered an abandoned house where a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Espurr}} was staying in ''[[XY014|Seeking Shelter From the Storm!]]'', she would assume the worst or that a supernatural being was in play whenever the group was spooked by anything. Likewise, in ''[[XY038|Forging Forest Friendships!]]'', when {{Ash}} had been kidnapped by a {{p|Trevenant}}, she became worried that Ash would be eaten after {{an|Clemont}} told her the rumors surrounding the forest. This is seen again in ''[[XY072|Scary Hospitality!]]''. In such occasions, she often speaks without thinking, continually making assumptions about the scary houses that made Ash or Clemont cringe, and she would promptly cover her mouth when she realized what she had said. She has also been shown to be afraid of crossing unstable bridges across high ravines.
[[File:Serena and Chloe.png|thumb|250px|Serena and Chloe]]
Serena seems to have a sisterly bond with {{an|Bonnie}}, as she is shown caring for her similar to the way Clemont does, such as protecting her in dangerous situations, comforting her, and cheering her up when she is sad. She also allows her to help her with various tasks, such as baking and grooming. Serena also gets along pretty well with Clemont, and they are normally seen taking care of the table together during meal times, with Clemont making the main dishes while Serena provides dessert. However, when it comes to his inventions, Serena has shown both a bit of marvel as well as caution, due to the usual result being an explosion. Serena quickly became very good friends with [[Chloe]] after meeting her, and appears to empathize with her after hearing her uncertainness on what goal to pursue in life.

Serena has shown a deep and loving affection for Ash, having remembered how he found her when she was lost and alone in a forest when she was young, and how he kindly guided her out. After several years, she still recognized him after seeing him on [[television]]. After picking her [[starter Pokémon]] and starting her {{pkmn|journey}}, her first order of business was to meet up with him to return the handkerchief he once used to bandage her leg at the Pokémon Summer Camp all those years ago. Ash proved to be a source of inspiration for her with his never-give-up attitude and love for Pokémon, to the point that she still recites the motivational phrases he taught her to motivate herself and others.
[[File:Serena Bonnie Pochette.png|thumb|250px|left|Serena holding Bonnie's modified pochette]]
Serena has a love for fashion and [[clothing]]. An early example of this is in ''[[XY003|A Battle of Aerial Mobility!]]'', when she spent time carefully selecting an outfit and was troubled over which of two hats looked best. Serena then asked her mother, who selected a beret. However, she promptly tossed the beret aside and picked up the other hat, saying that whatever her mother did not choose was certain to be the cuter one. She has also expressed excitement about visiting the clothing boutiques in [[Lumiose City]]. In ''[[XY021|A Pokévision of Things to Come!]]'', she was eager to dress up in many different outfits while making her [[Pokévision]] video. Despite her love for fashion and performances, she rarely displays vanity or over confidence. She usually acts somewhat subdued and humble in both of these areas, though she is not above commenting that she thinks something she has done is "cute," usually when dressing up her Pokémon for a Showcase.

Serena has displayed some skill in tailoring, slightly altering her Rhyhorn racing gear in ''Giving Chase at the Rhyhorn Race!'', as well as being able to modify the furisode she wore in her second Showcase on-the-fly in ''[[XY080|Performing with Fiery Charm!]]'', when it was accidentally torn before her Free Performance. Serena also likes baking and is quite skilled at it. An example of this was demonstrated in ''Giving Chase at the Rhyhorn Race!'', when she stayed up late at night to bake cookies for Ash and the gang, which they seemed to enjoy. Also, in ''[[XY010|Mega-Mega Meowth Madness!]]'', she had baked some macarons for the group, but they were stolen by a {{TP|Clemont|Chespin}}. In ''[[XY026|A Battle by Any Other Name!]]'', she also participated in [[Poké Puff Contest|a Poké Puff baking competition]]. In ''[[XY043|Origins of Mega Evolution!]]'', Serena showed that she knows how to dance when she attempted to help Ash with his training. This skill would later come in handy as she decided to become a Performer, having to choreograph the moves of both her Pokémon and herself when training for Showcases.

Serena's catchphrase is '''Ta-da!''' (Japanese: ジャジャーン! ''Ja-jān!''), which she usually says whenever she is presenting something.

===Pokémon===
[[File:Serena Party.png|thumb|250px|Serena's current [[party]]]]
Serena's Pokémon consists of cute and are naturally inclined to Pokémon Performances, such as her {{TP|Serena|Pancham}} and {{TP|Serena|Sylveon}}, who are both great dancers. Also, Serena and her Pokémon are shown to have a tight-knit bond with each other, as she cares for them greatly and likewise. Like {{an|Iris}}, Serena does not have a full party by the end of the series unlike the {{an|Misty|previous}} {{an|May|female}} {{an|Dawn|companions}}. Although she manages to gain her Pokémon's obedience, it took time for Serena to fully utilize {{p|Eevee}} to her potential due to her shyness around others. After the events of ''[[XY105|Party Dancecapades!]]'', Serena is able to manage her team effectively.

Serena frequently cares for her Pokémon's appearance as seen in ''[[XY095|Love Strikes! Eevee, Yikes!]]'', by grooming their coats with her brush. She also {{pkmn|training|trains}} her Pokémon to execute their [[move]]s creatively for their routines in the Freestyle Performances for [[Pokémon Showcase]]s. While Serena does not regularly participate in {{pkmn|battle}}s, her Pokémon are somewhat skilled in battles against other Trainers as seen in ''[[XY090|Tag Team Battle Inspiration!]]''. Her {{TP|Serena|Delphox}} is usually use in battle as her strongest Pokémon, but she has used her in both Pokémon Showcases and Contests.

She and Rhyhorn quickly ran past the racers on the track, before going off-track and riding inside a forest. After getting to safety, Serena thanked Rhyhorn for its help and it went back to the racing track.

==In the manga==
[[File:Serena M18 manga.png|thumb|180px|Serena in ''{{ma|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages}}'']]
===Movie adaptations===
Serena appeared in ''{{ma|Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction}}'' and ''{{ma|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages}}'', serving the same role as in the respective movies they were based on.
{{-}}

==Trivia==

* Out of all of {{Ash}}'s {{ashfr|traveling companions}}, Serena took the longest time to officially join Ash's group after being introduced, taking [[XY007|seven episodes]] to do so.
** She also took the longest time to both reveal her goal in life (choosing to become a [[Pokémon Performer]]) and catch [[Serena's Pancham|her first Pokémon]], both accomplished [[XY047|46 episodes]] after her debut.
* Serena is the first main character to not have a Pokémon under her ownership by the end of their introduction episode, not counting [[Max]] and {{an|Bonnie}}.
* Not counting temporary Pokémon, Serena is the first of Ash's friends to catch a Pokémon that another one of his friends also had: {{an|May}} and {{TP|May|Eevee}}.
** She is also the first traveling companion to have been invited into the group by Ash.
* Serena is the first female traveling partner to not get herself or her [[Bicycle|bike]] shocked by {{AP|Pikachu}} at the start of her respective [[series]], as {{an|Misty}}, May, and {{an|Dawn}} all had their bikes electrocuted, while {{an|Iris}} and Bonnie were directly shocked by Pikachu.
* Serena is the only one of Ash's female companions to have a confirmed canon crush on him.
** Serena is also the only one of Ash's female friends to not have a unique "[[twerp]]" title from {{TRT}}.
* Serena is the only main character to indefinitely change her outfit in the middle of a series, and the only one to permanently change her hairstyle at all.
* Serena is the only one of Ash's traveling companions to have met him prior to the [[EP001|beginning of the series]].
* Serena's new appearance was first teased in preliminary images of a {{pkmn|Tretta}} [[Pancham (U1-01)|puck]] featuring her and her Pancham, which featured her in a silhouette.
** It was first teased for the dub in the trailer for ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]''.
* Serena's second outfit from ''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]'' resembles clothing and a hairstyle from the [[Trainer customization]] feature found in [[Pokémon X and Y]]. The clothing Serena currently wears resembles the Red Fedora, Brown Riding Boots, and Black Knee Socks; and her hairstyle resembles the short hair with bangs.
** Discounting Iris's occasional {{pkmn|Champion}} outfit, Serena is the only companion to receive an entirely new outfit in ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''.
* Serena's second [[Bag]] is designed after a [[Heal Ball]].

Vi: /* Trivia - Longest to Join Group */ forgot to sign

==Clothing in the Trivia section==
The fact that Serena's outfit doesn't 100% match her game counterpart is not trivia-worthy (Ataro, back me up ;D). Pokemon XY introduced trainer customization, remember? [[User:Mooites|Mooites]] ([[User talk:Mooites|talk]]) 04:45, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
:Yeah, I added a note about it. But you are right, since you can customize your character the trivia is moot.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:49, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
::I don't care ether way, but even if you can customize in game, Serena still has a default appearance that you have to use for a bit, and that default is the same appearance (sans hat) that she appears in if she is your rival. --[[User:HoennMaster|Hoenn]][[User talk:HoennMaster|Master]] 05:30, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
::: Is it actually possible to match anime!Serena's appearance in-game? I think the pink hat might be an option, and I know the bow accessory is, but there's no version of that dress with a white collar. [[User:Yamiidenryuu|Yamiidenryuu]] ([[User talk:Yamiidenryuu|talk]]) 02:23, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
::::Can make in the trivia, about her currently new look? about referrecing to the Trainer Costumization from the games. --[[User:HoopsterJohn|HoopsterJohn]] ([[User talk:HoopsterJohn|talk]]) 01:00, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

==The canon crush==
Right now, we have two relationship charts that state that Serena is "very interested in" Ash, the various playing around the viewers got in the previews for [[XY013]] and we also have a picture made for Valentine's Day of the two characters. I'm not saying put this on Ash's page or or link to the [[AmourShipping]] page, or even make it a huge part of this page. But I feel like it's a little weird that this one-sided interest not mentioned at all, not even in her Character section, where one would reasonably expect to see it. Maybe I don't remember past shipping edit wars and there's a good reason for not having it included, but I dunno. Just seems like it should be mentioned here in some way.--[[User:Purimpopoie|Purimpopoie]] ([[User talk:Purimpopoie|talk]]) 02:10, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

:Yeah I agree but I don't know whether you would put it on the trivia or her character. But it covers it pretty well in the Amourshipping article so it might not be needed here [[User:Fairycoordinator|Fairycoordinator]] ([[User talk:Fairycoordinator|talk]]) 14:26, 25 April 2014 (UTC)

==Setting new records in doing absolutely nothing==
I'm waiting until she actually catches something to edit it in, but out of all the protagonists that are actually trainers, I believe she's already set the record for taking longest to capture a second Pokémon. Before, the record-holder was May who took from EP001 to EP014 to catch her second, but even if we start the timer at XY004 where Serena acquired her Fennekin, and end it at the latest aired episode of XY020, Serena has already taken longer. Granted, a good number of Ash's companions had the advantage of entering the scene with two or more Pokémon, but depending on how the next few weeks go, she stands a good chance of breaking the record for taking longest to be shown capturing a Pokémon, since it looks like Iris currently holds that record of taking from BW001 to BW024. (Again, this is only among protagonists -- Team Rocket are in a league of their own in lack of accomplishments.) Is there more? I haven't looked at trainer battle statistics, but I can't remember Tracey battling any trainer who wasn't Team Rocket anyway. --[[User:Pie|Pie]] ~[[User talk:Pie|♪]][[Special:Contributions/Pie|♫]] 22:02, 26 March 2014 (UTC)
:For May, I think you meant AG001 to AG014. [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 00:16, 27 March 2014 (UTC)
::Yes. Whoops. --[[User:Pie|Pie]] ~[[User talk:Pie|♪]][[Special:Contributions/Pie|♫]] 08:02, 27 March 2014 (UTC)

==Serena's VA==
I know that in the credits of XY23 the VA of Serena has changed because one kanji who looks like an square doesn't match with what I show in the credits. {{unsigned|Nymphia}}
:We need real proof. We can't base it by doing it by eye. So let's just wait for the official VA list. ☼ Blazing[[User talk:Blazingfist|Fist ☼]] 11:02, 17 April 2014 (UTC)
::I watched the episode with decent quality andand it's clearly "牧口真幸" in the credits...--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 16:31, 17 April 2014 (UTC)

== When is Serena gonna do something? ==

I've noticed that Serena hasn't done anything ever since she joined Ash's group. She hasn't caught any new Pokémon, she's not fighting gym battles, not competing in contests, etc. Even her goal as a trainer is unknown. The only thing she has done this whole time is just being there and making Poké Puffs. Is it trivia worthy that she is taking to longest out of all of Ash's traveling companions to do something? I mean, even Bonnie got a Dedenne after traveling with Ash. --[[User:PKMNAdventurer|PKMNAdventurer]] ([[User talk:PKMNAdventurer|talk]]) 05:14, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
:No, not really. - [[User:Kogoro|'''Kogoro''']] '''-''' [[User talk:Kogoro|'''Talk to me''']] - 05:22, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
:: Well, technically Dedenne is not Bonnie's, It's Clemont's, She's just taking care of it. Besides. Serena has a lot going for her character. Such as AmourShipping, and not having a goal give
s her a chance to experiment with different things [[User:Waterninja12345|Waterninja12345]] ([[User talk:Waterninja12345|talk]]) 12:39, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

== Quick Note: ==

In her Character section, it says "having not shown to either actively train her Fennekin, '''nor attempt to catch other Pokémon'''". But she HAS attempted to catch a Pokemon, a [[Corsola]] in [[XY022]]. Thanks :) [[User:Waterninja12345|Waterninja12345]] ([[User talk:Waterninja12345|talk]]) 12:31, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

== Serena's Pancham ==

This Pancham was supposedly leaked as a figurine awhile ago, but now there are two episodes coming up- one is specifically titled "Serena's First Capture?!", and the other has a picture of Serena holding a Pancham. And they both involve Pancham. Can't we make this canon now? [[User:Nutter Butter|Nutter Butter]] ([[User talk:Nutter Butter|talk]]) 15:20, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
:Not until the episode in which Serena catches said Pancham actually airs, I'm afraid. - ''unsigned comment from [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] ([[User talk:Missingno. Master|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Missingno._Master|contribs]])'' 15:43, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

== Is the hair picture really necessary? ==

I noticed someone uploaded a picture of Serena's hair when she cut it short. Is it really necessary? Because I don't think so. --[[User:PKMNAdventurer|PKMNAdventurer]] ([[User talk:PKMNAdventurer|talk]]) 03:31, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
:It's an important moment in her character arc. What would you put in its place? - [[User:Chosen|Chosen]] of [[User talk:Chosen|Mana]] 15:52, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
::Cutting her hair is important yes, but what she looks like after cutting her hair is what is important, not the hair blowing in the wind. Images of her competing in events would be much more suited for the article. --[[User:HoennMaster|Hoenn]][[User talk:HoennMaster|Master]] 22:21, 25 February 2015 (UTC)
:::I'm inclined to agree with PKMNAdventurer and HM. While yes, it was a major plot point for Serena, it fails to show any sort of characterization like a picture of her in a showcase or training with a Pokémon would, which is the point of having pictures in the article is. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 00:13, 1 March 2015 (UTC)

== Japanese name: Serena or Selena? ==

In [http://www.pokemon-movie.jp/img/chara/detail/detail_selena.jpg this official movies link]: <nowiki>http://www.pokemon-movie.jp/img/chara/detail/detail_</nowiki>'''SELENA'''.jpg, {{an|Serena}}'s name is written as "Selena". Do you know whether her trademarked Japanese name is Serena or Selena? And her game counterpart, too? Thanks for your help! --[[User:Yen01|Yen01]] ([[User talk:Yen01|talk]]) 09:25, 15 March 2015 (UTC)
:URL links aren't the most reliable in finding trademarked names, since they tend to misspell certain names like ''Citron'' as ''Shitoron'' at one time. [http://www.pokemon.co.jp/info/2015/02/150214_a01.html Here]'s one that uses ''Serena''. --[[User:神奇超龍|'''超龍''']]「'''[[User talk:神奇超龍|Chao]]'''」 10:05, 15 March 2015 (UTC)
::Oh, I see! Don't 100% believe the URLs, got it. But I don't know if they want to use her English name for the code or not, for future international release maybe... Oh forget it, that's sound silly! Anyway, thank you very much (and sorry for being late)! --[[User:Yen01|Yen01]] ([[User talk:Yen01|talk]]) 16:32, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

== Serena never gets electrocuted ==

All main characters at least one gets electrocuted by a Electric type move, Serena seems never seen in the entire XY saga, isn't a great addition to the trivia? --[[User:HoopsterJohn|HoopsterJohn]] ([[User talk:HoopsterJohn|talk]]) 18:53, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
:It's been on the page for a long time now. --[[User:HoennMaster|Hoenn]][[User talk:HoennMaster|Master]] 23:57, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
::Not necesary hold the Pikachu the first time like Bonnie or Iris, shocked by electric move from any Pokémon, even May was shocked by a Magneton and 2 Voltorb. --[[User:HoopsterJohn|HoopsterJohn]] ([[User talk:HoopsterJohn|talk]]) 04:08, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
:::A Magneton and two Voltorb are not important and are not the point of the trivia.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:14, 29 October 2016 (UTC)

== Shipping in the mainspace ==

We already have the fact that it's implied that they kiss listed in the history section. Highlighting it as something special and unique in the trivia section is unnecessary and betrays a pro-shipping bias. The facts are all that should be stated; advancing a slanted interpretation of those facts is a betrayal of our encyclopedic mission. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 06:43, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
:What exactly is being betrayed? It's not stating that she kissed him, it's saying she has an infatuation towards him, which is true. And she is the only one to do so, which is true. There's nothing shippy about it. If it were more descriptive and said that Misty didn't count, then yes, that would be shipping.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 06:51, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
::Saying she is the only one is absolutely shippy, because it explicitly excludes every other ship. That's the definition of the word "only." [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 06:54, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
:::Because she is the only one... there's nothing shippy about it, it's stating a fact. So what it excludes other ships? They're irrelevant to the trivia.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 06:58, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
::::You don't get it. The ''fact'' is "it's implied that they kiss." It's an ''interpretation'' that "she is the only one with an infatuation." It's unencyclopedic and frankly wrong to claim an interpretation as factual. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 07:10, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
:::::Uh... what does the kiss have to do with the trivia? The kiss is not the point of the trivia. Serena's infatuation with Ash is the point of the trivia, none of the other girls were infatuated with Ash. It's about Serena's attraction to Ash, not the kiss.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 07:19, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
::::::The continued and blatant signs of Serena's crush on Ash are MILES beyond the subjective interpretations of the actions of any of Ash's other traveling companions. You're trying to hold up shipping—inherently very biased already—to "prove" that others ''might'' be infatuated with Ash and "disprove" this point about Serena, but that's deeply flawed. If you like shipping, you're welcome to argue other ships somewhere appropriate (like our forums). If you dislike shipping, don't try to keep this out just because it's about attraction—ALL attraction is not SOLELY confined to the shipping space. (Brock would be a great example.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 14:05, 29 October 2016 (UTC)

The simple solution would be to change the phrasing to include "obvious" or "undeniable". Misty may have been infatuated with Ash, but it was not obvious and could be denied. Serena's infatuation was both obvious and undeniable. [[User:Nutter Butter|Nutter Butter]] ([[User talk:Nutter Butter|talk]]) 06:06, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
:Adding the word "obvious" would be enough for me to be OK with the trivium, but I'm definitely very strongly against "undeniable." Shippers are wacko; they could find ''some'' way to deny Serena/Ash if they were motivated to do so. [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 06:11, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
::Specifying "obvious" or "undeniable" ''makes'' it shippy. They way it's worded now is purposely vague to avoid it going into the shippy route.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 06:12, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
:::It's not vague - it's very specific and a bit biased. I could easily argue that May is infatuated with Ash (I won't, because I don't believe it, but I could), which would make the trivia point untrue. It is unclear whether Ash's previous female traveling companions were infatuated with him. What is clear is that Serena was. So if we want the trivia point to stay, it should state that Serena was clearly infatuated with him.
:::I think undeniable is the safer term. Didn't Serena admit to liking Ash? And obviousness is in the eye of the beholder. [[User:Nutter Butter|Nutter Butter]] ([[User talk:Nutter Butter|talk]]) 06:14, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
::::What's specific about the way it's worded now? Saying she's the first? Well, that's because it's true. None of the other girls have ever shown signs of infatuation towards Ash, ever. --[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 06:19, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
:::::We have probably several megabytes of shipping-namespace articles to disprove that assertion, ForceFire.
:::::The trouble is that the current trivium, and all the adjustments we're discussing, are directly ''interpretive''. What we really need is something ''evidentiary'' — something like a quote from a director or writer so we can duck behind it and say something like "Serena is the first female traveling companion ''who was intentionally scripted'' to be infatuated with Ash." We're probably not going to get that, so it's probably not helpful to bring it up, but oh well.

::::::(edit conflict, dunno what Pumpkin said) That's an opinion. My, and several other fans', opinion is that Misty did show signs of infatuation towards Ash; all of these signs (and a few other "signs" that are, in my opinion, garbage) can be found on [[PokéShipping]], which is why that page exists. HOWEVER, this is not a fact - it's debatable. The writers may not have intended for Misty to show these signs, but they may have. We cannot definitively claim either way. The way the trivia point is currently phrased very specifically rules out the other option, which is an opinion and pretty unprofessional. It is much safer and more accurate to state that Serena is the first to be ''undeniably'' infatuated with Ash, because you cannot deny it.

:::::::Read what Tiddlywink's said. Serena's infatuation is beyond subjective interpretation. It's an '''actual''' thing. Bringing in the other girls just makes it shippy.

::::::::Let me be clear: When I say this trivium is ''interpretive'', I don't mean it's ''subjective''. (I do also think that, but that's another point entirely.) When I say it is ''interpretive'', I mean it's a matter of us describing a quality of the text and/or subtext, rather than evidentiary, which is us citing a specific line or event. Something like "Ash's Charizard had a temper after evolving, but eventually became loyal to Ash" would also be ''interpretive'' even though it's not ''subjective''. Now that I'm getting to the heart of explaining this, I think I've realized that this is really my biggest beef with the point: Across all of our pages, virtually every trivium is ''evidentiary'': it cites a specific fact that you can specifically look up, with no wiggle room for is-it-or-isn't-it discussion like we've been having. ''Interpretive'' material is generally kept to sections like "personality" or "themes" or something like that. With that in mind, would a possible compromise be to move this sentence from the Trivia section into the paragraph of the Character section that deals with her affection for Ash?

:::::::::I don't see how Kasumi's infatuation with Satoshi is any less objective or subjective than Serena's in that case. Animation is a visual medium, visuals cues such as Kasumi blushing and getting visually irritated being the focal point of the scene when Satoshi was kissed by Fleura (or flirted on by Moe) was clearly intended to let the viewers know she was getting territorial over a crush, much like Serena has done over the course of the XY series. Why should a kiss be the only thing that confirms an infatuation? Using the same logic, I could go Full-On Denial Mode and debate that the ''unseen kiss'' was purely platonic (especially when Kalos is based on France, where kisses could simply be a form of saying goodbye between good friends - was it on the lips or on the cheek?), but the way it's presented makes it obviously not the case. Isn't that just common sense? Why do the animators need to hold our hands for information that can be expressed visually? It wouldn't be biased trivia to say "Serena is the first traveling companion to have kissed Ash", that's fair enough, but as of the way it's worded now, "Serena is the first of Ash's female companions to show some form of infatuation towards him", it IS biased because it's using tunnel vision to allow something that's not allowed to be mentioned on any other page for the traveling companions. It clearly is debatable or else we wouldn't be debating on it. Blatant jealousy is invoked by and could be considered a form of blatant infatuation depending on the context, as are kisses.

::::::::::I've looked through all of [[Shipping:PokéShipping#Misty's hints]], and every single one of them (in the anime/movies), is brief and heavily arguable. The only one with any more meat than the rest is [[M02]], but only barely (and it's still eminently arguable). (Fleura ([[Bianca]]) was mentioned above: but Misty's reaction is actually no different from Tracey's.)
::::::::::And Serena's infatuation is not at all centered around the supposed kiss. It was all there well before that. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 15:46, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
:::::::::::Fleura isn't Bianca (that's the dub name for the BW character, or Kanon from M05), she's "Melody" in the dub. And how was Kasumi's reaction no different from Kenji's? She was visibly jealous and was blushing profusely, even twitching [[http://i.imgur.com/n1ZjcUJ.png]]. If you watch the film itself, she even makes stuttering noises that no one else in the scene is making. Unless one is in denial (why else did she react that way to Fleura and, to a lesser extent, Moe flirting with Satoshi? She was getting jealous because she had a crush on the girls who she just met? C'mon, that's grasping at straws), she's obviously getting territorial over her crush. That kind of visual is no different from any of Serena's "hints" that isn't the kiss, especially the ones that involve Millefeui provoking it.
:::::::::::The only difference between the two shippings in actual canon were how they were utilized, Kasumi's crush was less focused upon compared to Serena's during the OS and she didn't put Satoshi on a pedestal, and she didn't express her infatuation the same way because she's a different character with a different personality/character archetype. Again, the statement that Serena is the first of Satoshi's companions to show some form of infatuation towards him shows some biased towards the coupling, which a Bulbapedia article shouldn't do, and is just as arguable. It's one thing to point out her affection towards Satoshi in her character section, and another thing to claim that she was the first companion to ever have a crush on Satoshi in the trivia section. (The first one that's willing to admit in some form that she has one directly to Satoshi, via kiss? Probably, but then again, it's also interpretive, as in my earlier reply. "First female traveling companion to kiss Ash at all" is much better and leaves less room for argument.) [[User:Fang-tan|Fang-tan]] ([[User talk:Fang-tan|talk]]) 17:50, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
::::::::::::1) Can I ask you not to use Japanese names? It's just confusing (like when I misremembered Fleura as M05's Bianca) and kind of pointless. Also: please try to write your post how you want the first time, instead of returning to edit it many, many times afterwards. (You have plenty of time.)
::::::::::::That scene in M02 is also not clearly jealous. She doesn't say a thing directly about it and the next thing she does say after it, it's not at all unreasonable to say she's just annoyed by Melody's questions/personality. And young kids can be simultaneously grossed out and titillated by something like a kiss. (To be clear, I don't mind however you want to interpret it. But you kind of have to want it. That's very different from Serena.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 18:16, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
:::::::::::::No, I use the Japanese names because that's what I'm most familiar with. I watched the entire show in Japanese and don't watch the English dub, so I'm sorry, I cannot conform to the way you refer to the characters unless I'm editing an article. Fortunately we're on Bulbapedia and it can easily be looked up.
:::::::::::::Secondly, yes, she is clearly jealous in that scene unless you really want to grasp straws and deny it. There's no reason why Fleura kissing Satoshi would "titillate" Kasumi (nor does her facial expression indicate so) and there's also no reason for her to be "grossed out" by that kiss, she likes romantic things and if she was simply just shocked that someone kissed Satoshi, she wouldn't look so angry nor would be be blushing profusely. There's also the context of the scene, a good chunk of the movie has Fleura teasing Kasumi about being Satoshi's girlfriend or liking him. It's obvious what the intentions were coupled with the visuals and dialogue. Again, anime is a visual medium, she doesn't need to have internal monologues screaming "Oh my god, she kissed Satoshi, I'm so jealous!" holding the viewer's hand with exposition, the visuals and context are obvious enough. In comparison to Millefeui teasing Serena, her reactions to the same type of teasing are different but just as valid, Kasumi didn't need to be constantly shy blushing at Satoshi or spilling the spaghetti around him every other episode because that's just not what's in her character, what was shown was enough validation. I have this very strong impression that if one were to replace Kasumi for Serena for those scenes (or possibly any minor fanexaggerated "shippy" scene involving any Pokegirl traveling companions for Serena), these quote-on-quote interpretive details would instantly be validated, which would show strong bias towards that coupling, which I feel doesn't belong here of all places for ''any'' coupling. [[User:Fang-tan|Fang-tan]] ([[User talk:Fang-tan|talk]]) 19:47, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
I really don't think you're understanding what I was trying to suggest. You have admitted that everything listed on PokeShipping is debatable - but if it can be debated, that means there is some (deniable and not necessarily real) evidence that Misty is infatuated with Ash. You can't outright state that Misty is not infatuated with Ash; it's very possible she isn't, but it's also very possible that she is. So we cannot claim factually that she is infatuated with him, but we also cannot claim factually that she is not. What we can claim factually is that Serena is undeniably infatuated with him, something that cannot be stated for Misty because it is not clear. Allowing for the possibility that Misty is infatuated with Ash is not anymore shippy than stating that Serena is infatuated with Ash. All I'm asking is that you add one extra word in order to stay as factually accurate as possible without removing what could be considered a good trivia point.

:Here's a Japanese scan from a movie guide ([http://i.imgur.com/3tKyzLt.jpg img]). This section is about the scene where Kasumi reacts to Fleura kissing Satoshi. The headline is self-explanatory, it says ヤキモチ...?!, which is basically "JEALOUSlY...?!" further pronounced using katakana. "When she met Satoshi, Fleura went "Oh well, customs, customs, welcome!" and smooched! At that time, Kasumi was..." followed by some selected quotes from fans on how cute they thought Kasumi's reaction was. There's your official source confirming she's jealous, period.

== Trivia - Longest to Join Group ==

In the trivia section, it states that Serena takes the longest to join Ash after her debut of any traveling companion. It also says she took the longest to catch a Pokémon, and the longest to find out her goal. These statements are misleading because none of them would be true if we consider Chloe as a traveling partner.

Chloe traveled with Ash for about 30 episodes in total and had regular minor appearances in other episodes. In the description of Pokémon Ultimate Journeys: The Series, it states "Ash, Goh, and Chloe chase their dreams as Pokémon Trainers as their adventures continue", and at the conclusion of that season, her story is given significant screen time and emphasis. Therefore it's not fair to exclude Chloe from the list of Ash's traveling companions. This set of trivia should either be removed or reworded to make it clear Chloe is not being considered. [[User:Vi|Vi]] ([[User talk:Vi|talk]]) 06:31, 20 November 2023 (UTC)
:Chloe was never a ''longterm'' traveling companion like Serena was, and Japanese media consistently referred to just Ash and Goh as protagonists, not Chloe. There's also the fact that Chloe only physically appeared in 53 out of 136 episodes during the primary portion of Journeys (which is less than half of them). [[User:PokemonMasterJamal3|PokemonMasterJamal3]] ([[User talk:PokemonMasterJamal3|talk]]) 06:53, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

This distinction between long-term traveling partner and traveling partner is not clear in the section. The linked page is called [[Ash's friends|Ash's Friends]], and Chloe is one of Ash's friends. I think her exclusion as a traveling partner could make sense from the perspective that Ash is living in Vermillion city in those seasons as opposed to the other seasons in which he travels around a region.

Hi BigDoc, I was making a list of characters/actors for [[M19]] and I noticed that you put both [[Suzy Myers]] and [[Billy Bob Thompson]] as {{p|Chesnaught}}. Did they both voice Chesnaught, or was this a mistake?
:Probably a mistake but strangely the cast list for Suzy Myers and Billy Bob Thompson both have Chesnaught, I'm '''''guessing''''' Suzy Myers as she voices Chespin.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 20:42, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

== Episode airing times ==

I noticed that you unmasked the major events that happened in SM035 before the episode finished airing.

::User pages are usually create by people who wish for them to be main spaced or who think they are important enough to get a page under a user, so creating one for a character who we know nothing about or if the character will appear again is kind of weird.

== Character pages ==

Hey. Please don't create pages for anime characters unless you have some info to add. [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Dana_(SM041) This] is really too barebones. Redlinks aren't necessarily a bad thing. It's better to have a redlink than a page that contains almost nothing. ☼ Blazing[[User talk:Blazingfist|Fist ☼]] 12:50, 8 September 2017 (UTC)

== Episode Plots ==

The plot you wrote are awesome. Sometimes however, the sentence you wrote are too long and difficult to read. Just like when you read, too long of a sentence takes the breath out of you. "When", "As", "Because" are some phrases you often use to join these sentences but making them too long. If I make sense. XD

An example would be "Inside the school grounds, Ash asks Rotom what kind of Pokémon live on Akala Island but as Rotom does a search, he is hit by a Tauros which sends him flying as Charizard lands in front of Tauros to stop him as its trainer and Kiawe arrive with Kiawe telling Charizard to keep holding on as his classmates look on as Ash lands on the ground."

You can instead write it as "Inside the school grounds, Ash asks Rotom what kind of Pokémon live on Akala Island (period) As Rotom does a search, he is hit by a Tauros which sends him flying (period) As Charizard lands in front of Tauros to stop him, its Trainer and Kiawe arrive (period) Kiawe tells Charizard to keep holding on as his classmates look on as Ash lands on the ground (period)"

This is so much more comfortable to read. Haha, you can what I mean? — '''[[User:Ruixiang95|Ruixiang]][[User talk:Ruixiang95|95]]''' 11:29, 19 September 2017 (UTC)
:And here was me worrying that the sentences I was right were too short. Noted for future reference.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 14:19, 19 September 2017 (UTC)
:Agreed. The sentences are overly long and can benefit from being split off into multiple sentences. Also, I think I might've seen some grammatical errors along the way, but I cannot recall any specific examples. Whatever the case, I gave up trying to improve the plot of [[SM030]] and tagged it, along with other episodes' plot sections you had a significant amount of contributions to, with a cleanup template.

== A Theory on Clemont's Heliolisk's voice ==

Hey BigDoc, I have something I want to share with you, and It's about Clemont's Heliolisk. We now it was voiced by Ryan William Downey, but I think it previous might have been voiced by Tom Wayland. On your page for him, it mentions Ryan joined the series during season 18, which makes sense as all his characters appeared in season 18 or after that, EXCEPT Clemont's Heliolisk (who first appeared in season 17). And if it was someone else, there would be no reason to recast them (the only other actor who left in season 18 was [[Jennifer Forziati-DaCosta]]). [[User:Super10ZX|Super10ZX]] ([[User talk:Super10ZX|talk]]) 17:26, 7 October 2017 (UTC)
:As far as I can tell, [[S18]] was Downey's debut unless I'm mistaken, Tom Wayland could have voiced Heliolisk before he was sacked but sadly this can't be confirmed.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 22:43, 6 November 2017 (UTC)

== Preview button ==

Please make sure to use the preview button, even when adding multiple images to a section. I'm sure you're excited to back on the wiki again, but [[Special:Diff/2718873/2719669|this]] shouldn't take 10 edits. --[[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] ([[User talk:Abcboy|talk]]) 11:37, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

== Pre-airing edits ==

Hi. I want to let you know, I've been asking people not to hide information about an episode on any page except the episode page before it airs. So that means refraining from [[Special:Diff/2769612|your edit here]] adding hidden templates for Nanu's Pokemon that were expected for SM073/74. That hidden info has just now resulted in a minor edit war, and that's a pattern that has happened several times previously as well. As far as I'm concerned, that all adds up to more of a hassle than it's otherwise worth. It'll be much cleaner if people just add the info fully and with much less room for argument once the episode airs.

So, please confine pre-airing edits of hidden information to an episode's page. Thank you. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 15:44, 26 April 2018 (UTC)

Could you hold back on creating anymore VA articles, or at least make them in your userspace instead? Most of your recent articles are of questionable notability. [[Kenta Kamakari]] may have voiced a recurring character for more than one episode, but really, DJ Leo is only important to one of those episodes he appeared in, so in essence he only "appeared" (read: did something of note) once.

I understand you're making sure the filmographies don't look like the ones from MyAnimeList before your userspace VA articles are mainspaced.

== Annice Moriarty ==

hello
I am currently working on fixing a mistake that has been made in regards to the Ugandan-American voice actress {{red link|Annice Moriarty}}, a woman that some in the anime communities have mistaken for a similar sounding voice actress named [[Kether Donohue]]
I'm wondering if you can help me migrate the page over to {{red link|Annice Moriarty}} as they are not the same person at all.
I've looked all over the internet, and I am unable to find any sources at all, even if she was not my sister.
Can I ask for help in correcting this mistake?
We actually did a parody of this on a youtube channel we created called Kether Ketchup, which was meant to make fun of the internet's mistake about Annie.
I would deeply appreciate help in fixing this error, and would like to know what sources people claim to have so we can address them.
thanks.

== Kether Donohue and Annice Moriarty ==

Hello
I am going to make some edits based purely on two things:
*The knowledge that Annice Moriarty is most definitely not [[Kether Donohue]], and
*The episode credits.
We know that both Donohue and Moriarty voice [[Lila]], that was what Tom Wayland said.
In fact it was Lila that was the source of the belief that Donohue and MOriarty were the same person, due to them both being credited and them both voicing the same character, albeit during different stages in her life.
I will not add any biographic info on Ann.
here's an easy way to gage my edits:
If Kether Donohue's name appears in the episode, then we can credit her. If Annice Moriarty's name is there, then we must put Annice Moriarty.

I also want to remind you of something:
I got 3 names for you:
*Allyson Johnson ([[Agatha]])
*Kathleen Delaney (Rouge the Bat)
*Caren Manuel (previously believed to have voiced both [[Agatha]] and Rough due to her similar voice to Johnson and Delaney)

Remember that?
That's the other reason why you have to be careful with pseudonyms.
thanks.
So my edits are based on the credits and what Wayland had actually said. thanks

I don't know who is an admin. FF believes that MOriarty is a pseudony mdespite no proof existing, so I need you to be partly envolved due to your experience with voice actors.

Perhaps you guys do need to examine where it came from, that Annice Moriarty was Kether Donohue. It appears all your guys's efforts are punishing me, rather than maybe figuring out where this belief came from, like I am.
Yes it was uncontested for ages, so was Kathleen Delaney/Allyson Johnson/Caren Manuel.
I have been asking the same question over and over and over again with no answer, and it is quite frustrating. Where did you get the information from that Kether Donohue was Annice Moriarty?
I'm disregarding the fact that she is my sister, because I can't use that for sources.
However I can challenge Bulbapedia, and I am.
thanks.
[[User:African Vulture|African Vulture]] ([[User talk:African Vulture|talk]]) 22:07, 31 March 2019 (UTC)

I'm asking just for the same.

I will talk to them.
To basically sum it up quickly, as I have to go for a bit, [[Agatha]] used to list Caren Manuel as her english VA.
For Sonic, Manuel was credit for Rouge in 4kids.
Later, it turned out that Kathleen Delaney did Rouge and Allyson Johnson did [[Agatha]].
that's the lowdown on that.
I'll talk to the admins in a bit, I have to eat and I'm going bowling for a bit.
thanks.
[[User:African Vulture|African Vulture]] ([[User talk:African Vulture|talk]]) 22:30, 31 March 2019 (UTC)

:Okay. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 22:37, 31 March 2019 (UTC)

Update, I posted to Abcboy's page.
On it I mentioned two other examples of long-held beliefs on Bulbapedia and other websites that got destroyed.
[[Megan Hollingshead]] vs. [[Lee Quick]] (Officer Jenny]], and [[Megan Hollingshead]] vs. [[Emily Niebo]] (computer from [[M02|Pokemon 2000]]). Both rolls (Officer Jenny and the palice computer) were credited both on and off Bulbapedia to Hollingshead, until it turned out (just like with [[Agatha]] and Rouge the Bat), that the long-held credit was incorrect.
So be careful with pseudonyms if they are indeed pseudonyms, because it may turn out not to be a pseudonym after all. There has to be a way not just for administrators to identify where pseudonym information comes from, but also ordinary editors and readers, so they can say, "Ok, I know where they got that."
I will also caution you about IMDB, Wikipedia doesn't like it, and when it comes to pseudonyms, there's no way to check where it gets the info from.
thanks.

== pseudonym identifications ==

Hello
The Annice Moriarty thing brings to light the issue of verification of pseudonyms.
Fore example, nobody has identified where it is they got the idea that Annice Moriarty was a pseudonym of New York-born Caucasian voice actress [[Kether Donohue]].
Even though no source has been given for even the IMDB entries, it is still widely believed. However, nothing in the wayback machine of Kether's website shows anything.

What steps should Bulbapedia and other websites do to verify VA pseudonyms, in order to prevent cases like the Annice Moriarty/Kether Donohue or the Caren Manuel/Allyson Johnson/Kathleen Delaney incidents? I would like to see some concreet ideas in verifying tha tpseudonyms are true, rather than false.

E.G. if somebody claims "Kether Donohue did this roll under Annice Moriarty!", then they should have to prove that Kether Donohue used Annice Moriarty as a pseudonym. It shouldn't be a challenger like me saying "where's the proof?" having the burden of proof on them, as we only want to prevent potential mistakes.
Let's say a pseudonym is true, E.G. John Smith uses David Jones as a pseudonym. How would we verify that John Smith and David Jones are the same person?
What has been done to me would be the person coming along and saying, "hey, where did you get that John Smith and David Jones are the same person?" and Bulbapedia responding, "you better prove that David Jones is not John Smith or else consequences."
In other words, we should assume that David Jones and John Smith are different people until a good source is able to be shown that says for sure that John Smith used David Jones.

How will we do this to prevent more Annice Moriartys or Caren Manuels?

:This is something that is best left up to admin, not me.

Remember, I am not talking specifically about the Annice Moriarty thing, rather about pseudonym verification in general.
[[User:African Vulture|African Vulture]] ([[User talk:African Vulture|talk]]) 12:31, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
:I have experience dealing with voice actor pages, nothing about pseudonym's I admit but I always wait for admin to approve any information I have before adding it.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 13:16, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

Ok, but then the admin has to identify a source. and I have contacted Force Fire about a few things and either he hasn't seen them or is ignoring them.
I don't know and I won't say either way.
Hence why I hesitate to contact him again.
I think we should identify a source for the specific claim about Annice Moriarty being Kether Donohue as I'm not the only one who brought this up on the internet. You have to be able to tell people where you get information from no matter how believable it is.
We can use the Annice Moriarty case as an example to go by for future VA info such as pseudonyms.
I also wish to remind you of the Megan Hollingshead thing, where people for the longest time thought she voiced Officer Jenny.
Remember that? I did research into that and Lee Quick wasn't credited.
That's another reason to once in a while go back and double check things, even if you feel there's no need to, and even if it is uncontested for a while.
You never know, it may turn out to be unexpectedly incorrect, just like with Ann and just like with Megan Hollingshead.
[[User:African Vulture|African Vulture]] ([[User talk:African Vulture|talk]]) 13:34, 11 April 2019 (UTC)
:All I can say is wait for admin to respond, last time you acted before waiting, the page was protected. If you think Force Fire is ignoring you, maybe confer with other admin about it--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]] ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 13:38, 11 April 2019 (UTC)

I don't feel that FF is ignorning me, but I feel he just isn't seeing what I write. I like to view it that way so it's not so harsh. I mean being an admin is likely a busy thing.
That said, should pseudonyms come up again, please have both you and an admin discuss where it came from.
I suggest if you find pseudonyms, question them and confirm them. You add lots of awesome stuff about voice actors, and I am in love with your voice actor predictions page, it'sreally cool.
So please, even if you don't comment on the Annice Moriarty case, it can be used as an example of why pseudonyms need verification. The proof has to be viewable for Bulbapedia's readers, so we can say, "ok you got it from here." I used to get flack on Wikipedia for adding unsourced material so I only ask that everybody else be held to the same standards as me.
thanks.

== H.D. Quinn vs. Tyler Bunch ==

Hello BDF. I may have figured out who [[H.D. Quinn]] is, however I'm going to need help from you or somebody who does have twitter.
I believe Quinn to be actor Tyler Bunch, who is a member of Voices for Fosters.
I get this from the fact that all voice actors on VOF are in Pokemon, and the similar voices. Now before you do anything else please tweet Tyler (@tyler_bunch) and ask him if he works on Pokemon, then if he voices some of the characters in Pokemon that H.D. quinn voices. I'd say the best way to do it is to ask about the characters themselves and if he confirms, then ask if he uses H.D. quinn, this way we can make sure we're talking to a Pokemon VA.
Can you or somebody with a twitter help me please?

I was curious about what you think of this. Despite being recently captured, Darmanitan accepted Goh's orders without any problems. It appears to respect Pokémon it perceives as strong, such as when it greeted Ash's Dragonite with a fist bump after winning the battle against Golurk. It reveals to be smug, as it had watched Scorbunny training with Ash's Pikachu, it noticed that it didn't use any fire type moves.

Hi, can you help me with a question? Battle history normally enter the pages of a Pokémon? I mean, that battle of Goh against Ash, is it considered notable to be put in an article? When there was a discussion about the Scyther page, I think you said that only battles would be recorded, never cameo, so I put the battle on the Goh's Farfetch'd page and a user almost created an edit war removing this information from the my own user page claiming that such information is not notable(I looked for information in the rules and I didn't see it saying anything about it, in fact I thought the opposite of that).

== pokemon anime moves page ==

Because you have a pokemon anime moves page that you want deleted eventually, I am interested to have an anime move page for my userspace especially since I believe lost track of how many times Pikachu used Thunderbolt, Meowth using Scratch and/or Fury Swipes, all instances where a move is used in the main series anime and which moves appear in each anime. Please reply when you can! If you are okay with this, I may also need your help with creating and editing such pages for each.[[User:Ctc1017|Ctc1017]] ([[User talk:Ctc1017|talk]]) 10:46, 12 December 2020 (UTC)

Where is the source that says that Suzanne Goldish does this role? She doesn't have twitter so I can't aask her. Asside form IMDB(https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0875609/fullcredits) which you said isn't reliable, I can't find anything. Would you mind telling me where this Suzanne Goldish comes from please?

:I think you're better of speaking to admin about this, Bulbapedia has they policies when it comes to voice actors, we don't play it by ear.

== Transferring pages ==

Hi, I was wondering if you're interested in adopting some pages that I still haven't been able to put in the mainspace. Let's say, instead of being a Userpage with my nickname, put it with yours, then you would edit it as you wish.
The pages would be these here....
*[[User:Hikaru Wazana/Clair (anime)]]
*[[User:Hikaru Wazana/Pikachu's family]]
*[[User:Hikaru Wazana/Bea (anime)]]
*[[User:Hikaru Wazana/Tim Goodman (movie)]]
*[[User:Hikaru Wazana/Ash Ketchum (JNM)]]
*[[User:Hikaru Wazana/Goh's Heracross]]

*[[User:Hikaru Wazana/Goh's Absol]]
*[[User:Hikaru Wazana/List of all World Coronation Series participants]]
*[[User:Hikaru Wazana/Electric (single)]]
Some are virtually ready, so it wouldn't need much work, but I'm doing this because I'm going to ask an administrator to delete what you're not interested in keeping active. Ash's page from the Journeys manga, I think it would be helpful to decrease the extra size of the anime counterpart's page. The biggest job there will be getting the images of his Pokémon, which requires a little searching. Bea's page I think by the end of Journeys will have enough to go to mainspace.

== Italian redub and voice actors ==

Since you're specialized in VA stuff, I would like to ask a favour. I've been adding a good number of Italian roles, but there's a little issue. Since Season 1 and 3 were redubbed, I sometimes have trouble founding a standardized way way to represent VA roles without creating ambiguites. For example, in {{an|Misty}}'s page we have "Benedetta Ponticelli ([[BW116]], K2 redub)", because BW116 is the only not-redubbed episode where she voiced her and K2/TPCi redub refers to EP001-EP157 (excluding Season 2) Should this be specified to not give the impression that she voiced her in a BW116 redub? So far this has generally been done when more than one actor has voiced the same character in said redub ({{an|Giovanni}} is such a case). For comparison's sake, I suggest to look how it was handled for [[Duplica]], [[Todd Snap]], and [[Jessebelle]]. If you need more details I'll provide what I can.

Hey, I rewatched some of Journeys's old episodes, and saw that Goh's Arctozolt appeared in (at least) three episodes.

::::However, I understand that in my opinion, all in all, if there is a main page about Raichu where most of the episodes in which he appears should be listed there this episode as well as others so that you don't have to just search on each page for the given information.

::::::Of course, I understand you, but there are really a lot of excerpted episodes in which Raichu does nothing or appears for about 4 seconds throughout the episode or is somewhere far in the background for a moment. (I am, of course, able to give examples of such episodes there are several and I know them) In my opinion, if there is already a list with such episodes then why not also add, for example, what I wanted to add. As for the episodes in which a particular Pokemon appears for only a brief moment, in my opinion it should be specified than just information that he appears there. I think it would bring more order, and there are quite a few episodes where such information would be useful in my opinio, Of course, I realize that you would have to go through hundreds of episodes now, but you can always introduce something like this ''from now on''.

:::::::If the Raichu in question was [[Goh's Raichu]], then it'll never be listed in 'minor appearances' because it is already considered 'major' regardless of its role in individual episodes, and most, if not all of its appearances should be listed on the article. If we listed every time one of a main character's pokemon simply showed up in an episode as background fodder under minor appearance, that'd become untenable. You'll note that Ash's Muk doesn't have every time it hugs Oak listed under {{p|Muk|Minor}}. I suggest you read other pokemon entries to have a better handle on what the differences are on what goes under major and minor appearances.[[User:ArcToraphim|Kai]] * the [[User talk:ArcToraphim|Arc]] [[Special:Contributions/ArcToraphim|Toraph]] 17:40, 10 September 2022 (UTC)

== Game mechanic vs. mechanic ==

Thanks for your help with the move from Rocket Brothers to Rocket Siblings. On a related note, might you be able to help facilitate a decision on a couple other pages that may need moving? The page [[Memory (game mechanic)]] and [[Mystery Dungeon game mechanics]] use the full term "game mechanic" while [[Season (mechanic)]] and [[Pokémon Tower (Mystery Dungeon)|Pokémon Tower (mechanic)]] use just "mechanic". Could we settle on one for consistency sake and then move the appropriate articles? Furthermore, Pokémon Tower (mechanic) may need to be moved to '''Pokémon Tower (Mystery Dungeon)''' to be consistent with other Mystery Dungeon-related articles such as [[Status condition (Mystery Dungeon)]]. Thoughts? [[User:Landfish7|'''Land''']][[User talk:Landfish7|'''fish7''']] 21:48, 12 September 2022 (UTC)

== Pokémon Mezastar and others ==

Hello, I have a series of questions and I don't know if I would get the answers from you, I hope I'm not bothering you, but here goes:
* I started a thread on Ash's page about a split, do you have any thoughts on that? Would it be possible for you to give your point of view on this? I started the initial project of what would be the new section of the games page with the presence of Ash, did you get to look?
* I put some sections referring to Pokémon Mezastar in some pages of characters, I uploaded some images too, the image of Iris I left as the main artwork of her page. Was it the best option? I mean, would it be better to leave the image of the anime itself or is the use of this better?I left it with the game art because it shows Iris with a full body, but I don't think the decision is up to me.
* Are the images properly hosted?
* I even believe that these sections need a bit of a revamp, who do I talk to to help me with the layout of the Pokémon section?
* That page I created for Diantha, do you think it has a chance of going to mainspace? I mean, she appears in several episodes after I made the first page analysis request.
I believe this is it, thanks in advance-[[User:Hikaru Wazana|Hikaru Wazana]] ([[User talk:Hikaru Wazana|talk]]) 05:00, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

== your userpages for moves used by main character's pokemon ==

Although Satsjoe already created a user page for moves used by Ash's Pokémon, You should create a user page of your own for moves used by Ash's Pokemon. This is especially because not only does the page only showcases moves used by the Pokémon in their current forms (if possible), it hasn't been updated in a while and as such doesn't show any Z-Moves, Max Moves, and G-Max Moves or some new moves that Ash's Pokémon have learned later, such as Infernape learning Fire Punch. Your user pages showcase the moves used by the main character's Pokémon in all their stages not just their current stage. Please take this into consideration.

== Character sections for game based characters ==

Hello, hopefully you'll be able to address my query. Given the change and removal of the character sections from many of the pages, would it be worth giving all of these game-based characters their own anime pages? Given most appear across two or more episodes, which is the definition or recurring, so the character sections can be re-added. I and Hikaru Wazana have already been preparing a few for the mainspace, like [[User:PardescanSlowbro/Norman (anime)]], [[User:PardescanSlowbro/Blaine (anime)]] or [[User:Hikaru Wazana/Clair (anime)]].

==Catch template for Legends: Arceus==
Hi, Chosen. A month ago I created a "prototype version" of "Catch/Entry" template to locations from Pokémon Legends: Arceus. Though I took a Catch/entry8 as base, it took a bit time to create it. I don't know it could work, especially when Pokemon locations are a bit complex, if you note a odds in weather, time-space distortions, odds for Alpha specimen, etc. So... if you could got a free time, could you look onto [[User:Modikisha/Sandbox/Template:Catch/headerLA|these]] [[User:Modikisha/Sandbox/Template:Catch/entryLA|templates]] and check they fulfill a requirements to be officially moved on main space? Of course, if they don't fulfill requirements, you may redirect them to yourself and modify them... or take a page from PokeWiki.de and use "Interactive Map Location" template to Legends Arceus and Scarlet/Violet locations. Choice is, of course, yours. I ask you, because I think you're a much better in that cases ^^". Initially I asked Chosen to check this, but a month passed and I've got no answer, so I've decided pass this offer to you, pal. --[[User:Modikisha|Modikisha]] ([[User talk:Modikisha|talk]]) 14:43, 5 May 2023 (UTC)

== Moving Diantha's anime page to content space ==
Me and [[User:PokemonMasterJamal3|PokemonMasterJamal3]] have been making adjustment to Diantha's anime page and I believe that it is ready to be move to content space.--[[User:BlueSparkles|BlueSparkles]] ([[User talk:BlueSparkles|talk]]) 13:08, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

== Apologies regarding James's Carnivine ==
Sorry for updating James's Carnivines's ability as Levitate, I assumed it because Carnivine has only Levitate and no other ability (even a hidden one), next time I'll try to edit only if it is explicitly mentioned in the anime. Once again my apologies, I am new to editing! [[User:Urugavihs|Urugavihs]] ([[User talk:Urugavihs|talk]]) 12:46, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
:No problem, even if a Pokemon in the games only has one ability, that doesn't guarantee it has the same ability in the anime, I made a similar mistake in my early days by putting Intimidate as Ash's Staraptor's ability.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]], Junior Admin Bulbapedia ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 12:47, 11 August 2023 (UTC)

:::Wallace wasn't that relevant of a character. Aside from the Wallace cup arc and a sole appearance in Journeys, he didn't play notable of a role, as opposed to characters like Cynthia (who was constantly present during DP and also played a notable role in BW and Journeys), Lance (who was present in three different series), or Steven (same as Lance). IMO, Wallace is perfectly fine where he is now: as part of the character's overall article. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 18:37, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

:::::::::I think the idea of Wallace's page being considered to go to the mainspace is nice, but as the person who created it, I don't think it's the best time yet for that. The page isn't ready yet, and as I'm trying to focus on the character pages for Horizons, Path to the Peak and next week the new animation based on Scarlet and Violet will be released, I won't have time to fix what's missing in this one page yet. Even more so because I would have to watch the episodes where Wallace appears and kind of "study" his appearance in those episodes.
:::::::::I have other pages that I would much rather go to the mainspace now, and I've already talked to an admin about them. Anyway, I really appreciate your help on this content, BlueSparkles.--[[User:Hikaru Wazana|Hikaru Wazana]] ([[User talk:Hikaru Wazana|talk]]) 13:53, 27 August 2023 (UTC)

== Edit to AG006 ==
Hi, I'm not sure what you mean by "we have the blurb as published"? The use of <nowiki>{{sic}}</nowiki> is just to indicate to the reader that the two typos are intentional and part of a faithful rendering of the original text. Other blurbs or direct quotes with mistakes also use <nowiki>{{sic}}</nowiki> in the same way. [[User:Minibug|Minibug]] ([[User talk:Minibug|talk]]) 14:40, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
:After checking with fellow admin, I stand corrected, using <nowiki>{{sic}}</nowiki> helps to let readers and other editors know the mistake isn't ours. Feel free to revert.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]], Junior Admin Bulbapedia ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 17:17, 13 October 2023 (UTC)

== Goh's 4 Floette ==

The problem for this section is that in the previous sentence it refers to all five Flabébé / Floette that Goh has caught. It then makes the word "their" seem as if its referring to all the Floette. It should be changed to either "None of the moves of the four Floette are known" or "The White Flower Floette knows Grassy Terrain. None of the moves of the other four Floettes are known."

'''Serena''' (Japanese: '''セレナ''' ''Serena'') is a [[Pokémon Performer]] and a former {{ashfr|traveling companion}} of {{Ash}}, who debuted in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]''. Her {{pkmn2|starter|first Pokémon}} was a {{TP|Serena|Fennekin}} that she received from [[Professor Sycamore]]. In ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'', she is revealed to have become a successful [[Pokémon Coordinator]] as well.

==In the anime==
===History===
====Pre-series====
[[File:Young Serena.png|thumb|left|250px|Young Serena]]
Serena grew up in [[Vaniville Town]] in the [[Kalos]] region with her mother, {{kal|Grace}}. During her childhood, Serena was taught about {{p|Rhyhorn}} racing by her mother, who was a famous Rhyhorn racer, and to know how to handle the {{pkmn|category|Spikes Pokémon}}. Serena also practiced riding {{p|Skiddo}}, but she got scared during one of her practices and hugged her mother for comfort.

Sometime later, Serena was sent to [[Kanto]] against her will to attend a [[Pokémon Summer Camp]], which was hosted by {{an|Professor Oak}}. One day while at the camp, she got lost in a nearby forest and was startled by a {{p|Poliwag}}, falling over and hurting her knee. She then met [[Ash Ketchum]], who was looking for the same Poliwag and spotted Serena. Noticing her knee injury, he pulled out a handkerchief and wrapped it around her wounded knee, saying that it is a good-luck charm and that the pain would go away. However, when Serena's knee continued to hurt, Ash told her "Don't give up till it's over" and helped her up, before escorting her out of the forest. Afterwards, she returned to Kalos, bringing along the handkerchief and the memory of her meeting with Ash.
{{-}}

====''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]''====
Serena debuted in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]'', where she was forcibly woken up by her mother's {{p|Fletchling}}. In ''[[XY002|Lumiose City Pursuit!]]'', she attempted to practice Rhyhorn racing after being encouraged by her mother. However, Serena's attempts at controlling her mother's Rhyhorn ended with her being sent crashing into the ground.

Later that evening, Serena complained about her earlier practice leaving several scratches on her face. She sat down to watch a news report on an incident that was occurring in [[Lumiose City]]. On the screen, she saw Ash trying to calm down a rampaging {{p|Garchomp}} at Prism Tower and recognized Ash as a boy she had known in her childhood. The next day, while feeding Rhyhorn, Serena thought aloud that something interesting was going to happen and that it involved Ash.

Serena began her [[Pokémon journey]] in ''[[XY003|A Battle of Aerial Mobility!]]'' when she set off to {{an|Professor Sycamore}}'s lab in Lumiose City. Immediately upon arriving, Serena questioned the Professor about the boy on television and he confirmed that it was indeed Ash Ketchum. However, to Serena's disappointment, Ash had already left Lumiose City for the [[Santalune City]] [[Santalune Gym|Gym]] the previous day. Serena was then offered to choose her [[starter Pokémon]].

In ''[[XY004|A Shockingly Cheeky Friendship!]]'', Serena chose {{TP|Serena|Fennekin}}, received a [[Pokédex]], and started her journey. Later that day, she continued to travel with Fennekin, but didn't want to camp out for the night after seeing some wild {{p|Venipede}}. She was attacked by a wild {{p|Vespiquen}} that she mistook for a person, only for Fennekin to scare Vespiquen away. Afterward, Serena met a [[Nurse Joy]], who told her where to find the nearest Pokémon Center.

In ''[[XY005|A Blustery Santalune Gym Battle!]]'', she finally reached Santalune City and found Ash during his [[Gym]] battle with [[Viola]]. She introduced herself to him, {{an|Clemont}}, and {{an|Bonnie}}, after returning his backpack when it was left behind at the Gym. At the end of the episode, she asks Ash if he remembers her, at which point the episode abruptly ends.

In ''[[XY006|Battling on Thin Ice!]]'', she revealed that the two of them met at the Pokémon Summer Camp when they were younger. Although Ash remembered the camp, he didn't specifically remember meeting Serena, much to her disappointment. Serena quickly regained her composure and reminded him that he once told her to never give up. Hearing these words helped Ash continue his training in order to win the rematch against Viola. During the rematch, Ash was visibly becoming overwhelmed by Viola's battling strategy, but Serena yelled at him to never give up. The inspiration that he had once given Serena was now being given to him, and these words encouraged him to continue the battle. At the end of the episode, after winning the Bug Badge, Ash asked Serena what her plans for the future were.

Serena officially began traveling with Ash and his friends in ''[[XY007|Giving Chase at the Rhyhorn Race!]]''. This was when Serena revealed why she began her journey in the first place. After seeing Ash on TV, she decided that she would begin a Pokémon journey in order to return the handkerchief he used to mend her knee injury. After she returned the handkerchief, Ash remembered their encounter and called her the "girl with the straw hat".

Later on, Serena helped teach Ash how to ride and race on a Rhyhorn when he expressed an interest in Rhyhorn racing. While doing so, Serena's opinion on Rhyhorn and Rhyhorn riding quickly changed when the Rhyhorn were very friendly towards her. Later, while she was helping Ash learn to ride, she called out similar words Serena's mother had yelled to her during her Rhyhorn riding lessons at home. At that moment, Serena realized that she had misjudged the sport of Rhyhorn racing and that perhaps she did not hate it as much as she thought. Serena expressed in the same episode that she did not dislike Rhyhorn racing but that she wanted to find a goal that she likes even more.

The next day, Ash was captured by {{TRT}} and Serena had to help rescue him. This was when Serena had her first Pokémon battle, commanding Fennekin to use {{m|Ember}} on the criminals. At the end of the episode, she gave Ash a pouch of cookies, saying it was her way of thanking him for all he had done for her.

In ''[[XY009|Clemont's Got a Secret!]]'', Serena learned from Clemont's father, [[Meyer]], that Clemont is the Lumiose City [[Gym Leader]]. Although initially angry with Clemont for keeping this secret from her along with Ash, she helped take back the [[Gym]] from the malfunctioning [[Clembot]]. She battled [[Clemont's Magneton]] with her Fennekin, but it managed to avoid Fennekin's attack, forcing {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{AP|Froakie}} to step in and defeat it. Later, she watched Clemont battle and defeat Clembot for the control of the [[Lumiose Gym]].

[[File:Miette and Serena.png|thumb|220px|Serena and Miette]]
In ''[[XY021|A Pokévision of Things to Come!]]'', Serena decided to make a [[Pokévision]] video. After watching some sample Pokévision videos in the Pokémon Center, Serena decided to make one of her own with her Fennekin. She rented a camera and began filming with Fennekin. The two of them dressed up in multiple outfits and the video featured them posing and baking together. However, during the filming of the video, Fennekin was captured by Team Rocket. Serena was able to rescue Fennekin, and in the process she remembered all that they had been through together. Her feelings of [[friendship]] were conveyed to her Pokémon, and Fennekin was able to learn {{m|Flamethrower}} in the battle against Team Rocket. After this event, Serena was able to finish her filming and was proud of her final product.

In ''[[XY026|A Battle by Any Other Name!]]'', Serena participated in the [[Poké Puff Contest]], but she did not emerge victorious. Before the event, she met another competitor named [[Miette]]. The two of them compared their [[Poké Puff]]s to see whose were superior, which led to a spark of rivalry between them. After comparing the two Poké Puffs, the group realized that Serena's Poké Puffs were more suited for [[human]]'s tastes than Pokémon's. This was part of the reason that Serena was not able to win the Poké Puff competition.

Serena had her first official Pokémon battle in ''[[XY039|Summer of Discovery!]]'' against {{an|Shauna}}. Shauna and her friends, {{an|Tierno}} and {{an|Trevor}}, had seen the Pokévision video that Serena filmed in Lumiose City and recognized her from it. Serena accepted Shauna's challenge, and alongside Fennekin she faced off against Shauna and her {{p|Bulbasaur}}. Despite having a type advantage, Serena was unable to win. Serena talked with Shauna throughout the episode, and learned that Shauna was aiming to be someone who could put on performances with Pokémon. Her conversations with Shauna were a catalyst in helping her realize that she was the only one of her friends that didn't have a set goal. At the end of the episode, Serena sat alone brushing Fennekin's tail and wondering what her dream was.

In ''[[XY040|Day Three Blockbusters!]]'', Shauna informed Serena about [[Pokémon Showcase]]s and told her that she was planning on becoming a [[Pokémon Performer]], and this inspired Serena to become one as well. In ''[[XY047|Dreaming a Performer's Dream!]]'', Serena witnessed her first Pokémon Showcase. She saw an exhibition performance by {{an|Aria}}, the current Kalos Queen, and also saw a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Pancham}} interrupt a contestant's performance on stage. Later, outside, that same Pancham stole Ash and Clemont's belongings. Serena managed to track Pancham down and saw that he was putting on a performance with no one around. This made her realize Pancham loved performing and simply wanted to show that to everyone. With this in mind she announced to her friends she wanted to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it. Battling with Fennekin, she managed to weaken and successfully catch it. After that, Serena gave Pancham a pair of her favorite sunglasses.

In ''[[XY053|A Race for Home!]]'', she met up with her mother, but at first didn't dare to tell her about her intention to be a Performer. Later, Serena finally told her mother about her dream and challenged her to a Rhyhorn race in order to prove her determination under the condition that if she lost she would go back home and train to become a Rhyhorn racer. However, her mother suggested that they race on {{p|Skiddo}}, knowing that Skiddo could sense the rider's feelings. Serena managed to beat her mother in the race when the Skiddo she was riding sensed her determination, and thus her mother gave her permission to become a Pokémon Performer.

In ''[[XY059|Under the Pledging Tree!]]'', after helping her friends thwart Team Rocket's plot to crash the Pledging Tree festival and returning the stolen presents to their rightful owners, Serena gave a ribbon to Fennekin and new sunglasses to {{TP|Serena|Pancham}} in honor of the event. The group then found a present not addressed to a Pokémon, but to Serena herself. The present was a new dress for the upcoming Coumarine Showcase from her mother, left under the care of Nurse Joy. At the end of the episode, Ash gave Serena the blue ribbon he had won in a giveaway from the Coumarine Monorail staff.

[[File:Serena Showcase debut.png|thumb|left|220px|Serena's Showcase debut]]
In ''[[XY060|A Showcase Debut!]]'', she made her debut as a Pokémon Performer in the [[Coumarine City]] [[Pokémon Showcase]] Rookie Class, along with Shauna and Jessie. However, during the Theme Performance, Fennekin tripped over a bow that Serena had decorated her with. This eliminated her from the competition, and she watched as Shauna went on to win the Showcase. Although Serena acted like she took the loss well, in private she was very upset. Early the next morning, she walked out to a pier with Fennekin and Pancham, finally releasing her bottled up feelings and began to cry inconsolably. Having comfort and reassurance from her two partners, she drew scissors from her [[Bag|backpack]] and cut her hair to her shoulders after a reflection on her journey so far. Later, she donned a new outfit, featuring the ribbon she received from Ash, to signify her resolve.

After this, Serena continued to practice for her next Pokémon Showcase. However, in ''[[XY064|Battling with Elegance and a Big Smile!]]'', one of these training sessions went wrong when Serena ended up yelling at Fennekin and Pancham after they were fighting, leading to Fennekin accidentally hitting Serena with Flamethrower. Realizing what she had done and feeling useless as a Performer, Serena ran off in shame. She was later approached by a {{an|Aria|young woman calling herself Ariana}} and the two spent the rest of the day shopping together. During this time, Ariana learned what Serena had been through and encouraged her to make up with her Pokémon and remember the close bond they had, which Serena did later that evening. The two girls later had a [[Double Battle]], during which Fennekin evolved into Braixen, but the match was called off after Ariana was forced to leave when she got a call. The next day, Serena discovered that "Ariana" was in fact Aria all along (having previously felt she looked familiar) and secretly thanked her for all her help.

In ''[[XY080|Performing with Fiery Charm!]]'', Serena participated in her second Pokémon Showcase, competing against Miette and a disguised Jessie. She passed through the first round, the Poké Puff Baking competition, with flying colors. However, prior to her Freestyle Performance, Jessie bumped into her, ripping her dress. Thanks to the never-give-up attitude she learned from Ash, as well as her own quick thinking and skill at tailoring, Serena was able to modify the dress just before she was called up. During the second round, she delivered a performance that left the audience very impressed. As a result, she was the most voted Performer, winning the competition and receiving her first {{DL|Pokémon Showcase|Princess Key}} despite the anxiety she still felt from her debut performance.

After arriving in [[Anistar City]] in ''[[XY091|A Performance Pop Quiz!]]'', Serena participated in her third Pokémon Showcase. In the Theme Performance, she was able to beat Nini and {{kal|Lily}} in the Pokémon Quiz segment, earning her a spot in the Freestyle Performance. However, before she could go on stage, her {{TP|Serena|Eevee}} went missing after being scared by the performance Jessie had delivered and Serena left to find her, almost missing her performance in the process. After reuniting with Eevee and receiving her support, Serena gave her performance using choreography based on Eevee's dancing, which earned her enough votes to win the Showcase and obtain her second Princess Key.

In ''[[XY101|A Dancing Debut!]]'', Serena participated in her fourth Pokémon Showcase. During the Theme Performance, she and her Pancham were able to bake a Poké Puff while entertaining the audience in the process. Thanks to their performance, Serena received enough votes to advance to the Freestyle Performance. In the Freestyle Performance, Serena used her Braixen and Eevee. Everything was going smoothly until Eevee got distracted by the crowd and fell to the ground. Eevee was discouraged until Serena motivated her to keep on dancing. Serena and her Pokémon finished their performance without any more problems, but Eevee's mishap caused Serena to lose the Showcase. Later, Serena comforted Eevee and assured her they would do better next time.

In ''[[XY105|Party Dancecapades!]]'', Serena and Eevee attended a dance party hosted by [[Monsieur Pierre]] with Clemont and Bunnelby as their partners. She was upset, because she couldn't dance with Ash. Later when she battled alongside Ash against Miette and James, her Eevee evolved into Sylveon.

In ''[[XY109|Master Class Choices!]]'', Serena entered the {{ci|Fleurrh}} Showcase Rookie Class in hopes of winning her third and final Princess Key. In the Theme Performance, in which Performers had to lure as many Rhyhorn as possible to their part of the field before time ran out, Serena easily defeated [[Concetta]] and [[Kazalie]] and advanced to the Freestyle Performance. There, she performed with Braixen, Pancham, and Sylveon. Their performance was well received by the audience and she was the most voted Performer of the round. As a result, she was declared the winner of the event, receiving the Fleurrh City Princess Key and qualifying for the Master Class.

[[File:Serena Master Class.png|thumb|250px|Serena in the Master Class]]
Serena entered the {{ci|Gloire}} Showcase Master Class in ''[[XY112|Master Class is in Session!]]'' where she met up with all of her [[rival]]s. In the first round, she was grouped with [[Miette]] and [[Sara Lee]]. Her performance received the highest number of votes and she quickly made her way to the semifinals of the competition, where she found herself up against {{an|Shauna}} and [[Jessie|Jessilee]]. In [[XY113|the following episode]], she tried a risky move and ended up bruising her wrist. She was about to fall but Sylveon helped Serena using her feelers, saving the performance. She was the most voted Performer of the round and as such was allowed to move on to the finals, where she faced the reigning {{DL|Pokémon Performer|Kalos Queen}} {{an|Aria}}. Despite her best efforts, Serena couldn't defeat Aria, who retained her title. After that, Serena was approached by Palermo who invited her to become her protégé so she could become a better performer and have a chance at becoming the next Kalos Queen. Serena, however, declined the offer, telling Palermo that her journey with her friends has helped her develop, and until she finishes she can't go with Palermo. Palermo told Serena to call her after she finishes her journey and gives Serena her business card before leaving off.

In ''[[XY115|Battling at Full Volume!]]'', Serena decided to pose as Ash who had gotten a cold from training with Greninja and Pikachu, to face off against an eccentric {{tc|guitarist}} named [[Jimmy (XY115)|Jimmy]] with Ash's Pikachu against his Pikachu, Spike. Her disguise pulls through and they ended up battling well against each other before almost getting exposed by Clemont and Bonnie. As she continued the battle, Pikachu and Spike were captured by Team Rocket, by which then Jessie managed to see through her disguise to her dismay. Upon Ash's recovery, she discarded her disguise and commanded her Pokémon to simultaneously attack Team Rocket, who were eventually sent blasting off by Pikachu and Spike in the end. She apologized to Jimmy for deceiving him and invited him to join her and the others for lunch.

In ''[[XY121|Seeing the Forest for the Trees!]]'', Serena became concerned about Ash when he became depressed after his defeat in a Gym battle with [[Wulfric]]. When he ran off into the woods, she chased after him on her own. Serena found Ash in the middle of the woods, still despondent over his defeat. She began to talk with Ash, telling him she was helped by the advice he gave her when they were young during their journey together, and also while she was training for her Showcases. However, the agitated Ash yelled at her, causing Serena to become angry at him for not acting like himself. In response, she threw a few snowballs at Ash before leaving. When it began to snow, Serena grew concerned about Ash again and led the others to find him. Meanwhile, Ash reflected on his actions and Serena's words. Later in the episode, Ash apologized to Serena for yelling at her and also told her that he was able to "figure things out" thanks to her words of encouragement.

In ''[[XY132|A Towering Takeover!]]'', she helped destroy some of the giant roots that were attacking Lumiose City, which [[Z2]] was causing. In [[XY133|the following episode]], she spearheaded a mission to rescue [[Chespie]] from [[Lysandre Labs]] with the help of [[Mairin]] and Professor Sycamore. While on their way to Lysandre Labs, a friendly news crew offered to take them there in their helicopter.

In ''[[XY134|The Right Hero for the Right Job!]]'', she initially fought [[Mable]] when the latter attacked their helicopter using her {{p|Weavile}}, although {{Steven}} eventually came to help them. When [[Celosia]] attempted to stop them, the news crew revealed themselves to be Team Rocket and faced Celosia in battle, allowing Serena and the rest to save Chespie. She then battled multiple grunts with difficulty, but Steven managed to catch up and help take them out.

In ''[[XY135|Rocking Kalos Defenses!]]'', she called Ash using the device Clemont gave them, asking him to find Clemont inside the gym. She, along with Mairin, Steven and Sycamore started investigating the research conducted by Team Flare. Before Steven could explain what he found, the [[Giant Rock]] was activated and absorbed Chespie, causing the building to collapse. The four of them tailed the Giant Rock towards [[Anistar City]] while Serena informed Ash, Alain, Clemont, Blaziken Mask and Bonnie about the current situation of Chespie. She, along with Sycamore and Steven then fought the Giant Rock using Braixen, Garchomp and Metagross. Her Braixen was thrown off Metagross by some of the vines from the Giant Rock, but Alain's Charizard managed to save her in time. After Ash managed to get Greninja launch a {{m|Water Shuriken}} at Chespie's location in the Giant Rock, she assisted Steven, Sycamore and Alain to fight their way through, but none of their attacks were able to hold it off.

[[File:Serena and Aria.png|thumb|left|250px|Serena and Aria]]
In ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]'', after all the Gym Leaders, including [[Diantha]], arrived to help Ash and his friends, Serena stayed behind to protect Mairin and Bonnie while the rest used their Pokémon's abilities to fight their way through the Giant Rock. A few large vines surrounded the three of them but Serena managed to have Braixen, Pancham and Sylveon to prevent them from getting hurt. Serena then rushed to protect Mairin as a vine was heading towards her direction, but was saved by Ash and Alain managing to rescue Chespie in time. All of them then tried to attack the Giant Rock but ended up injuring themselves instead. Squishy and Z2 managed to transform into the Complete Forme and battled the Giant Rock and defeat [[Lysandre]]. Serena then reunites with Ash, Clemont and Bonnie and watches Bonnie say goodbye to Squishy as it leaves along with Z2.

In ''[[XY137|Battling With a Clean Slate!]]'', Serena helped Bonnie to clean the Lumiose Gym in preparation for the relighting of Prism Tower. Later, she went with Ash, Clemont and Bonnie to Professor Sycamore's Lab when they heard Alain was returning, only to find Mairin on the floor with decorations all over her. She helped Mairin bake the cake for the welcome party that Mairin decided to host. When Alain entered the lab, they all welcomed him and had a feast together with Professor Sycamore. Later, along with Ash, Alain and Clemont, Serena battled and managed to defeat Team Rocket who were trying to steal Pikachu again. The next day, she watched the battle between [[Clembot]] and [[Alvin]], with Alvin coming out as the winner. After the gym battle, Professor Sycamore gave out medals to Serena, her Pokémon, as well as to Ash, Clemont, Bonnie, Mairin, Alain and their Pokémon. All of them gathered and posed for the group photo with the medals.

At night, Ash, Serena, Clemont and Bonnie watched as Prism Tower relights. Clemont asks what Serena is going to do to which she was hesitating to accept the offer Palermo gave earlier. Ash cheered her on and Serena happily thanks him for his constant support.

In ''[[XY138|The First Day of the Rest of Your Life!]]'', Serena saw on the news that the residents of Lumiose City were still recovering from injuries and decided to ask Professor Sycamore to help host a Pokémon Showcase event. Serena, Shauna, and even Jessilee put up a collaboration performance which made the residents smile and enjoy themselves. By witnessing how everyone started dancing along and smiling, Serena realized how much she actually loves performing and wants to do more. The next day, after saying goodbye to her mother, Ash asked Serena for a battle after seeing her lost in thoughts. Serena agreed as Ash said by battling, she would be able to decide what's next for her. During the battle, Serena was able to work well with Braixen and use her techniques well against Ash's Pikachu. Ash called off the battle and encouraged Serena that she always has her Pokémon by her side and he would be rooting for her. After the battle, Serena called Palermo, making her final answer to reject Palermo's offer. Serena told her seeing how everyone was smiling during her performance earlier that made her want to travel more and make more people smile like Aria and improve her skills. Palermo advised her to compete in [[Pokémon Contest]]s in [[Hoenn]] and Serena happily agreed. After that, she announced to the group that she will be going to visit other regions to further develop her skills as a Performer, starting with Hoenn.

[[File:Serena arriving in Hoenn.png|thumb|250px|Serena arriving in Hoenn]]
In ''[[XY139|Facing the Needs of the Many!]]'', just before she, Ash, and the others were heading back to the Lumiose airport, a big plant pops up. After Xerosic captures Clemont and when the van drives away, Ash-Greninja jumps in front of the van, which frightens Serena. Later, Serena goes with Ash and Bonnie to rescue Clemont by jumping from the top of a cliff and then getting rescued by Ash-Greninja's tongue. After Clemont gets rescued and Xerosic arrested, she, along with the others bid farewell to Ash's Greninja, which goes along with Squishy and Z2 to find the negative energy where those roots were spawning.

In ''[[XY140|Till We Compete Again!]]'', Serena officially left the group to follow Palermo's advice and travel the Hoenn region. At the airport, Serena told Ash she vowed to become better, especially for him the next time they met. She then leaned towards him, and the scene heavily implies that she gave him a kiss on the lips, with Clemont, Bonnie, Pikachu, and Dedenne all shocked and Ash left momentarily stunned. Serena then thanked him for the journey and his guidance before leaving. She was last seen happily arriving in Hoenn.

====''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''====
[[File:Serena JN.png|thumb|250px|left|Serena in ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'']]
In the time since she started traveling alone, Serena became a rising star in [[Hoenn]] and garnered a lot of local attention in [[Lilycove City]]. She also became friends with Hoenn's top contest idol, [[Lisia]], and helped her to liven up the local Contests.
[[File:Serena and Lisia.png|thumb|250px|Serena and Lisia]]
Serena reappeared in ''[[JN105|Reuniting for the First Time!]]'', where she met [[Chloe]] and her {{TP|Chloe|Eevee}}. After giving her some suggestions for her future and encouraging her to take part in a Pokémon Contest Spectacular, Serena participated in the event as well. While Chloe participated in the {{OBP|Rank|Contest|Normal Rank}} Contest Spectacular, Serena took part in the Master Rank competition, tying for first place with Lisia. As Chloe was departing at the docks, Serena revealed that Lisia approached her after the Contest to ask if she wanted to team up with her and form an idol duo together, to which Serena is unsure about as of yet. Serena also briefly met [[Goh]] and reunited with Ash as they boarded their boat; the two promised to keep cheering for each other as they parted ways again, all while Serena waved goodbye and waited at the docks while watching Ash depart.

In ''[[JN132|Partners in Time!]]'', Serena appeared alongside {{an|May}}, [[Max]], and Lisia, watching Ash's [[Masters Eight Tournament]] match against {{an|Leon}}. Soon after, when Pikachu was at the limit of his strength, Serena, May, and Max were shown to be anxious about the state of the battle, each holding on to another for comfort.

Serena reappeared in a fantasy in ''[[JN135|Heroes Unite!]]'', alongside the Trainers Chloe and her Eevee had met.

====Other appearances====
Serena made a cameo appearance in the ending credits of ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]''. She appears using her original look.

===Character===
[[File:Grace and Serena.png|thumb|left|250px|Serena and her mother]]
Serena is a kind and polite girl, but she can also be openly rebellious towards her [[mother]], {{kal|Grace}}. In ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]'', she refused to wake up when Grace ordered her to, and gave a sassy response to her mother's call to watch the news. This tumultuous relationship was best demonstrated when Grace made her practice {{p|Rhyhorn}} riding, an activity Serena had hated doing. However, their relationship is also very loving as shown in later episodes. Although shown to have a strong will, Serena can be sensitive and insecure at times as seen in ''[[XY064|Battling with Elegance and a Big Smile!]]''. When she was frustrated with her Pokémon, she lashes out when at her limit and leaves to cool off in shame. She is also shown to lose her composure when pushed to a wall, becoming unsure of herself. Despite this however, Serena manages to pick herself back up by reminding herself to not give up, bringing up her confidence and also encouraging her Pokémon to do their best despite the odds. This is shown when two of [[Serena's Braixen|her]] [[Serena's Sylveon|Pokémon]] evolve from responding to her resolve. While battling isn't her primary focus, Serena has shown herself to be a competent battler, at least partially due to picking up Ash's battling style after seeing him battle countless times.
[[File:Sky Trainer Serena.png|thumb|250px|Serena's {{tc|Sky Trainer}} outfit]]
Serena was uncertain what paths or career to pursue in life and expressed little ambition towards becoming a full-time [[Pokémon Trainer]] in the early stages of her journey. However, in ''[[XY039|Summer of Discovery!]]'', she began to think that not having an established goal was a problem for her future as a Trainer. During her time in the [[Pokémon Summer Camp]], she began seriously considering what she wanted to do with herself and {{cat|Serena's Pokémon|her Pokémon}} after seeing how passionate the Trainers around her were. It was in ''[[XY047|Dreaming a Performer's Dream!]]'' that she decided that her goal was to be a [[Pokémon Performer]] and she has been diligently training both herself and her Pokémon ever since. After losing her first [[Pokémon Showcase]], Serena strengthened her resolve to do even better, and to symbolize this she cut her hair short.

Unlike with {{an|Dawn}}, Serena chose to not follow in her mother's footsteps as a Rhyhorn racer. However, she is shown to be a competent Rhyhorn racer and is quite knowledgeable about them. She possesses a unique charm when it comes to Rhyhorn, possibly due to her upbringing, as nearly all of those that she encounters gravitate towards her playfully as seen in ''[[XY007|Giving Chase at the Rhyhorn Race!]]'' and ''[[XY109|Master Class Choices!]]''. Due to her mother's training, she is able to easily tame Rhyhorn and manage them well. Additionally because of those skills, she is also able to calmly guide a Mamoswine through a steep hill in ''[[XY083|Over the Mountain of Snow!]]''.
[[File:Serena catches a Pokémon.png|thumb|left|250px|Serena after catching a Pokémon]]
Serena has been shown to have a phobia of the supernatural. When {{ashfr|the group}} entered an abandoned house where a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Espurr}} was staying in ''[[XY014|Seeking Shelter From the Storm!]]'', she would assume the worst or that a supernatural being was in play whenever the group was spooked by anything. Likewise, in ''[[XY038|Forging Forest Friendships!]]'', when {{Ash}} had been kidnapped by a {{p|Trevenant}}, she became worried that Ash would be eaten after {{an|Clemont}} told her the rumors surrounding the forest. This is seen again in ''[[XY072|Scary Hospitality!]]''. In such occasions, she often speaks without thinking, continually making assumptions about the scary houses that made Ash or Clemont cringe, and she would promptly cover her mouth when she realized what she had said. She has also been shown to be afraid of crossing unstable bridges across high ravines.
[[File:Serena and Chloe.png|thumb|250px|Serena and Chloe]]
Serena seems to have a sisterly bond with {{an|Bonnie}}, as she is shown caring for her similar to the way Clemont does, such as protecting her in dangerous situations, comforting her, and cheering her up when she is sad. She also allows her to help her with various tasks, such as baking and grooming. Serena also gets along pretty well with Clemont, and they are normally seen taking care of the table together during meal times, with Clemont making the main dishes while Serena provides dessert. However, when it comes to his inventions, Serena has shown both a bit of marvel as well as caution, due to the usual result being an explosion. Serena quickly became very good friends with [[Chloe]] after meeting her, and appears to empathize with her after hearing her uncertainness on what goal to pursue in life.

Serena has shown a deep and loving affection for Ash, having remembered how he found her when she was lost and alone in a forest when she was young, and how he kindly guided her out. After several years, she still recognized him after seeing him on [[television]]. After picking her [[starter Pokémon]] and starting her {{pkmn|journey}}, her first order of business was to meet up with him to return the handkerchief he once used to bandage her leg at the Pokémon Summer Camp all those years ago. Ash proved to be a source of inspiration for her with his never-give-up attitude and love for Pokémon, to the point that she still recites the motivational phrases he taught her to motivate herself and others.
[[File:Serena Bonnie Pochette.png|thumb|250px|left|Serena holding Bonnie's modified pochette]]
Serena has a love for fashion and [[clothing]]. An early example of this is in ''[[XY003|A Battle of Aerial Mobility!]]'', when she spent time carefully selecting an outfit and was troubled over which of two hats looked best. Serena then asked her mother, who selected a beret. However, she promptly tossed the beret aside and picked up the other hat, saying that whatever her mother did not choose was certain to be the cuter one. She has also expressed excitement about visiting the clothing boutiques in [[Lumiose City]]. In ''[[XY021|A Pokévision of Things to Come!]]'', she was eager to dress up in many different outfits while making her [[Pokévision]] video. Despite her love for fashion and performances, she rarely displays vanity or over confidence. She usually acts somewhat subdued and humble in both of these areas, though she is not above commenting that she thinks something she has done is "cute," usually when dressing up her Pokémon for a Showcase.

Serena has displayed some skill in tailoring, slightly altering her Rhyhorn racing gear in ''Giving Chase at the Rhyhorn Race!'', as well as being able to modify the furisode she wore in her second Showcase on-the-fly in ''[[XY080|Performing with Fiery Charm!]]'', when it was accidentally torn before her Free Performance. Serena also likes baking and is quite skilled at it. An example of this was demonstrated in ''Giving Chase at the Rhyhorn Race!'', when she stayed up late at night to bake cookies for Ash and the gang, which they seemed to enjoy. Also, in ''[[XY010|Mega-Mega Meowth Madness!]]'', she had baked some macarons for the group, but they were stolen by a {{TP|Clemont|Chespin}}. In ''[[XY026|A Battle by Any Other Name!]]'', she also participated in [[Poké Puff Contest|a Poké Puff baking competition]]. In ''[[XY043|Origins of Mega Evolution!]]'', Serena showed that she knows how to dance when she attempted to help Ash with his training. This skill would later come in handy as she decided to become a Performer, having to choreograph the moves of both her Pokémon and herself when training for Showcases.

Serena's catchphrase is '''Ta-da!''' (Japanese: ジャジャーン! ''Ja-jān!''), which she usually says whenever she is presenting something.

===Pokémon===
[[File:Serena Party.png|thumb|250px|Serena's current [[party]]]]
Serena's Pokémon consists of cute and are naturally inclined to Pokémon Performances, such as her {{TP|Serena|Pancham}} and {{TP|Serena|Sylveon}}, who are both great dancers. Also, Serena and her Pokémon are shown to have a tight-knit bond with each other, as she cares for them greatly and likewise. Like {{an|Iris}}, Serena does not have a full party by the end of the series unlike the {{an|Misty|previous}} {{an|May|female}} {{an|Dawn|companions}}. Although she manages to gain her Pokémon's obedience, it took time for Serena to fully utilize {{p|Eevee}} to her potential due to her shyness around others. After the events of ''[[XY105|Party Dancecapades!]]'', Serena is able to manage her team effectively.

Serena frequently cares for her Pokémon's appearance as seen in ''[[XY095|Love Strikes! Eevee, Yikes!]]'', by grooming their coats with her brush. She also {{pkmn|training|trains}} her Pokémon to execute their [[move]]s creatively for their routines in the Freestyle Performances for [[Pokémon Showcase]]s. While Serena does not regularly participate in {{pkmn|battle}}s, her Pokémon are somewhat skilled in battles against other Trainers as seen in ''[[XY090|Tag Team Battle Inspiration!]]''. Her {{TP|Serena|Delphox}} is usually use in battle as her strongest Pokémon, but she has used her in both Pokémon Showcases and Contests.

She and Rhyhorn quickly ran past the racers on the track, before going off-track and riding inside a forest. After getting to safety, Serena thanked Rhyhorn for its help and it went back to the racing track.

In ''[[XY053|A Race for Home!]]'', Serena used another Rhyhorn, this time to chase after {{TRT}}.

==In the manga==
[[File:Serena M18 manga.png|thumb|180px|Serena in ''{{ma|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages}}'']]
===Movie adaptations===
Serena appeared in ''{{ma|Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction}}'' and ''{{ma|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages}}'', serving the same role as in the respective movies they were based on.
{{-}}

==Trivia==

* Out of all of {{Ash}}'s {{ashfr|traveling companions}}, Serena took the longest time to officially join Ash's group after being introduced, taking [[XY007|seven episodes]] to do so.
** She also took the longest time (excluding [[Chloe]]) to both reveal her goal in life (choosing to become a [[Pokémon Performer]]) and catch [[Serena's Pancham|her first Pokémon]], both accomplished [[XY047|46 episodes]] after her debut.
* Serena is the first main character to not have a Pokémon under her ownership by the end of their introduction episode, not counting [[Max]] and {{an|Bonnie}}.
* Not counting temporary Pokémon, Serena is the first of Ash's friends to catch a Pokémon that another one of his friends also had: {{an|May}} and {{TP|May|Eevee}}.
** She is also the first traveling companion to have been invited into the group by Ash.
* Serena is the first female traveling partner to not get herself or her [[Bicycle|bike]] shocked by {{AP|Pikachu}} at the start of her respective [[series]], as {{an|Misty}}, May, and {{an|Dawn}} all had their bikes electrocuted, while {{an|Iris}} and Bonnie were directly shocked by Pikachu.
* Serena is the only one of Ash's female companions to have a confirmed canon crush on him.
** Serena is also the only one of Ash's female friends to not have a unique "[[twerp]]" title from {{TRT}}.
* Serena is the only main character to indefinitely change her outfit in the middle of a series, and the only one to permanently change her hairstyle at all.
* Serena is the only one of Ash's friends to have met him prior to the [[EP001|beginning of the series]].
* Serena's new appearance was first teased in preliminary images of a {{pkmn|Tretta}} [[Pancham (U1-01)|puck]] featuring her and her Pancham, which featured her in a silhouette.
** It was first teased for the dub in the trailer for ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]''.
* Serena's second outfit from ''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]'' resembles clothing and a hairstyle from the [[Trainer customization]] feature found in [[Pokémon X and Y]]. The clothing Serena currently wears resembles the Red Fedora, Brown Riding Boots, and Black Knee Socks; and her hairstyle resembles the short hair with bangs.
** Discounting Iris's occasional {{pkmn|Champion}} outfit, Serena is the only companion to receive an entirely new outfit in ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''.
* Serena's second [[Bag]] is designed after a [[Heal Ball]].

==JN095 placement==
A flashback in JN095 shows James losing his job with Cassidy because of Morpeko eating the food, James didn't catch Morpeko until JN070 so JN095 can't take place around JN014.--[[User:BigDocFan|BigDocFan]], Junior Admin Bulbapedia ([[User talk:BigDocFan|talk]]) 21:29, 18 November 2023 (UTC)

== Regarding JN014 and JN095 ==

They're not connected at all and there isn't enough evidence that these two eps are taking place at the same time. If that were the case, Goh would still have Scorbunny on his shoulder like in JN014 instead of Grookey, but Scorbunny was fully evolved at that point in JN095. Even making the argument that Goh rotates his shoulder Pokémon would be a huge stretch. [[User:Piratezrobo|Piratezrobo]] ([[User talk:Piratezrobo|talk]]) 21:35, 18 November 2023 (UTC)

- Ok, thank you for the correction. I guess I didn't consider all the evidence.

==Blurb==


''After the Prize Master lends Team Rocket some unhelpful Pokémon, the group chases Pelipper to find out who’s responsible for the machine. The pursuit leads them to a café run by their former rival Cassidy, who’s no longer in Team Rocket. As James stays behind at the café, Jessie and Meowth press on, ending up at a bakery run by Butch. Meowth becomes smitten with a familiar-looking female Meowth, so Jessie and Wobbuffet leave him behind to continue chasing Pelipper. But a series of mishaps brings Jessie, James, Meowth, and Wobbuffet back together again, and they realize that their life in Team Rocket is all about luck—good and bad!''

==Plot==
[[Jessie]] and {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} are wandering through a desert in a sandstorm, wondering if their current predicament is cruel fate, before collapsing in the sand and bidding farewell to [[James]] and {{MTR}}.

A week earlier, {{TRT}} is shown working at a part-time job in a factory in [[Vermilion City]] to get fundings for their operations. When their shift ends and they go outside, they spot [[Ash's Pikachu]], along with {{Ash}} and [[Goh]]. They quickly seize Pikachu in a net and call down the [[Rocket Prize Master]]. However, the lazy {{p|Slakoth}} and {{p|Slaking}} they get do nothing when commanded to use {{m|Slack Off}}, before returning to their [[Poké Ball]]s, allowing Ash and Goh to easily blast the trio off with {{AP|Lucario}} and {{TP|Goh|Cinderace}} and save Pikachu. After landing, the Rocket trio decides to blame the lousy Pokémon they got from the Prize Master for their failure and focus their attention on {{OBP|Pelipper|Team Rocket}}. Translated by Meowth, Pelipper says the vending machine comes up to luck and flies off. The trio decides to pursue Pelipper so they can give the one responsible for the Rocket Prize Master a piece of their mind. While chasing it, they notice a {{p|Swablu}} sitting on their balloon. Since Swablu are said to bring happiness, they attempt to grab it, only for Swablu to dodge them and burst their balloon with {{m|Dragon Breath}}, sending them blasting off yet again.

While floating in the middle of the sea, Team Rocket sees Pelipper swimming nearby and chases it, only for a {{p|Wailord}} to appear and swallow both them and Pelipper. Inside Wailord, they find an old rusty ship and a {{p|Chatot}}, which, according to Meowth, has been trapped here ever since Wailord swallowed the ship. Not wanting to stay trapped as long as the ship has, the trio decides to use the Rocket Prize Master to escape. Pelipper, however, is stubborn and refuses to hand the vending machine over, using {{m|Hydro Pump}} on the trio when they try to force its bill open. Regardless, this attack does cause Wailord to squirt the trio, Pelipper, and Chatot out of its blowhole in the middle of a frozen sea. At first, the trio waves Pelipper goodbye and thank it for saving them, before remembering that they were chasing it, and resume the chase, only to run into an angry {{p|Mamoswine}}. By dangling Meowth before its face, Team Rocket continues their chase of Pelipper on Mamoswine's back.
[[File:Butch Cassidy Motto.png|thumb|left|250px|The trio remembering Butch and Cassidy]]
Eventually, however, the trio loses Pelipper and slips off Mamoswine's back out of hunger near a snow-covered village. They try to make it for a house, but collapse one by one in the midst of a howling blizzard. When they wake up, they find themselves in front of a warm fireplace and next to a table filled with food, much to their pleasure. They eagerly dig in and thank a woman for bringing them more to eat, before suddenly recognizing said woman as none other than [[Cassidy]], their fellow [[Team Rocket]] member. Cassidy, however, makes it clear that, despite her once-elite status in the organization, she is not its member anymore, having gotten tired of its daily routines and realized that there is more to life than Team Rocket. While Cassidy tells them to rest, Jessie insists on them working hard to repay her saving them, which she smugly accepts.

Team Rocket starts enjoying their life at Cassidy's café, helping to serve her customers and doing other helpful work. One day, when sitting outside to enjoy some food after a good day's work, however, they start thinking back to how they wound up here in the first place, until Pelipper flies by and makes them remember their chase. They prepare to resume it, but James seems reluctant, having gotten used to living with Cassidy. Jessie and Meowth, having seen how James has enjoyed his new life here, decide to let him stay while they resume their chase of Pelipper, tears pouring from Jessie's eyes as they run away.

Eventually, Jessie and Meowth wind up in a small town located next a seaside cliff, preventing them from going on any further. Hungry from all their running, they follow a delicious scent to a bakery, where they find not only a {{p|Meowth}} who's a spitting image of [[Meowzie]], [[EP070|Meowth's first love]], but also [[Butch]], Cassidy's now-former teammate from Team Rocket. He gives them some bread and prepares to explain why he's here, only for Jessie to cut him off and correctly guess that he, like Cassidy, has realized that Team Rocket isn't all there is to life and left the organization. Butch is angry at them for spoiling his big reveal, but agrees to let them repay his kindness with some work at the bakery. Once again, Jessie and Meowth end up forgetting their chase of Pelipper, only to be reminded of it when the {{pkmn|category|Water Bird Pokémon}} flies past the bakery. Having seen how happy Meowth is with Meowzie's lookalike, Jessie lets him stay behind. As Jessie runs away, Meowth gives her a parting gift in the form of a {{p|Wobbuffet}} balloon he had sewn himself. While pursuing Pelipper, Jessie finds the Swablu from before once again on the balloon, now having actually pecked a hole on it. She tries to grab it, only for it to once again use Dragon Breath to burst the balloon and send both her and Wobbuffet blasting off for the third time during their chase.

Back at the desert from the start of the episode, Jessie and Wobbuffet collapse from exhaustion and bid farewell to their teammates. Jessie dreams of James and Meowth waking her up by slapping her, only for her to actually wake up and find out it was actually a {{p|Sandshrew}} scratching her face. She wakes up Wobbuffet as well, but before they can continue looking for Pelipper, they end up falling into a sand pit, with a {{p|Trapinch}} opening its jaws for them at the bottom. Just as Jessie is about to accept her fate, James, Meowth, and Pelipper suddenly appear at the edge of the pit. They explain that James had been tossed out by Cassidy after his {{TP|James|Morpeko}} ate all of the café's food, while Meowth had found out that Meowzie's lookalike was hanging out with a local {{p|Persian}}, and they had both ended up reuniting and chasing Pelipper together. Jessie tells them to save her, but both James and Meowth end up slipping into the sand pit as well. Meowth tells Pelipper to save them, but it refuses, having no room in its bill for both the Rocket Prize Master and them. However, when it sees the trio helplessly sliding down the pit, it finally lets go of its stubbornness and drops the vending machine onto Trapinch so it can scoop up the Team Rocket trio and save them.

As Pelipper flies away, Team Rocket waves it goodbye, having finally understood that the vending machine, like life, is up to chance: sometimes you get good pulls, other times you get bad ones, and sometimes what seem like good pulls might turn out to be bad ones. When they start to wonder how to get out of the desert, Ash and Goh suddenly appear near them. Seeing a way back home, Jessie tells Ash to ask them what they're up to, giving the Rocket trio a segue into their {{motto}}, fully embracing their life in Team Rocket once again and welcoming Pikachu's usual {{m|Thunderbolt}} with open arms, blasting off for one more time for the week. Ash and Goh are left confused by the villainous trio's smiles, while said trio happily crashes back into their part-time job factory in Vermilion City.

* This episode marks the first appearance of [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]] in the {{pkmn|anime}} since ''[[DP065|Sleight of Sand!]]'', 649 episodes earlier. This is also their only appearance in ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'', as well as their final appearance in the anime.
* The wooden carvings in Cassidy's café are based on some of the Pokémon she used during the course of the anime.
* Team Rocket as a whole blasts off three times in this episode, while [[Jessie]] and {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} blast off four times.

* {{an|Sophocles}}, {{Ash}}, [[Goh]], an {{p|Ampharos}}, and Pikachu narrate the preview for the [[JN096|next episode]].
* This episode chronologically happens much earlier in the series. When Team Rocket blast off at the end, Ash and Goh are traveling towards the Colossus Ruins, as shown in [[JN014|Raid Battle in the Ruins]].

===Errors===
* When {{TP|Goh|Cinderace}} and {{AP|Lucario}} are about to attack Team Rocket, {{p|Slaking}} is in front of the trio, despite returning to its [[Poké Ball]] just moments earlier.
* When {{p|Swablu}} uses {{m|Dragon Breath}} to blast off Team Rocket the second time, the Wobbuffet balloon and {{OBP|Pelipper|Team Rocket}} are above the clouds. However, they were below the clouds in the preceding shots.

===Dub edits===
* The Japanese texts depicting {{p|Slakoth}} and Slaking's [[Pokémon category|categories]] and names are edited out.
* The title card featuring Meowth is replaced with the one with Pikachu in the English dub.
