{{p|Fearow}} debuted in the [[EP001|first episode of the anime]], where it appeared as a {{p|Spearow}}. It attacked Ash and Pikachu after Ash threw a rock at it. Its second and final appearance was in ''[[EP081|Pallet Party Panic]]'', where it was shown to have evolved into a Fearow. It battled against Ash's Pidgeotto, who soon evolved into a {{AP|Pidgeot}}. Ash attempted to capture the Fearow while riding on Pidgeot's back. Despite its weakened state, he was still unable to capture it, and he left Pidgeot behind to guard against any future attacks. This Fearow was seen in a flashback in ''[[EP131|Fighting Flyer with Fire]]''.

After Ash and Pikachu were exhausted from fighting a flock of Spearow, Ash saw a glimpse of Ho-Oh flying over a rainbow. The [[Pokédex]] couldn't record the data of Ho-Oh, as it was unknown at the time. Since then, it would often fly around.

The fourth recurring wild Pokémon in the anime, and the one that made the most appearances, is {{an|Jigglypuff}}.

Jigglypuff's first appearance was in ''[[EP045|The Song of Jigglypuff]]''. At first it couldn't {{m|sing}}, but that changed once {{an|Brock}} gave it a piece of fruit which soothed its throat. Jigglypuff followed the gang throughout their journey until the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and returned after a long absence in the {{series|Sun & Moon}}.

Jigglypuff is perhaps best known, however, for its running gag. Whenever it saw that its song put its listeners to sleep, it would inflate angrily, making a distinctive "honk" sound, then doodle over the faces of its audience with its marker.

{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} first encountered {{p|Suicune}} as they were heading towards [[New Bark Town]] in ''[[EP117|Don't Touch That 'dile]]''. Suicune was seen standing on a small island in a lake, appearing as a mysterious silhouette of blue energy. At first, Ash did not understand what Pokémon it was and wanted to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it. However, Suicune leaped into the fog and vanished as soon as Ash made an attempt to {{pkmn|battle}} it.


Suicune appeared once again in ''[[EP227|For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll!]]''. After {{TRT}} had removed the [[Clear Bell|Crystal Bells]] from {{ci|Ecruteak}}'s [[Bell Tower|Tin Tower]], many {{type|Bug}} Pokémon invaded the city. They wrapped [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} in a {{m|String Shot}} and blocked off the entry to the Tin Tower. Suicune appeared in a mystical blue light and calmed the [[wild Pokémon]] down. Seeing the [[Legendary Pokémon]], [[Jessie]] had {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} launch a {{m|Poison Sting}}, but Suicune evaded the attack and sent Team Rocket blasting off with an {{m|Aurora Beam}}.

[[Eusine]] wanted to catch Suicune and sent out his {{p|Alakazam}} to battle it. Alakazam used {{m|Disable}}, but Suicune easily blocked it with a {{m|Mirror Coat}}. It then used {{m|Roar}} to send Alakazam back into its [[Poké Ball]] and fled from the area before Eusine could even react. The brief encounter led Eusine to pursue Suicune, in the hopes of seeing it again one day.

{{p|Wynaut}} is a [[wild Pokémon]] who followed {{Ash}}, {{ashfr}}, and {{TRT}} around [[Blackthorn City]].
 
Wynaut briefly appeared in ''[[EP252|Fangs for Nothin']]'' during one of [[Jessie]]'s tirades. It stole a plate of food from {{TRT}}. {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} was the first to notice, but it was blamed for the act.
 
In ''[[EP253|Great Bowls of Fire]]'', Wynaut poked its arm out of the bushes while {{Ash}}, {{ashfr}}, [[Clair]], and {{jo|Liza}} returned to the [[Blackthorn Gym]].
 
Liza left some food for [[Charla]] to enjoy in ''[[EP254|Better Eight Than Never]]'', but Wynaut quickly snatched the meal without anyone noticing.
 
Wynaut's only major appearance was in ''[[EP255|Why? Wynaut!]]''. While Team Rocket was spying on Ash and his friends, Wynaut stole their snack, and Wobbuffet was once again blamed. Later, Team Rocket [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguised themselves as reporters]] and managed to steal Ash's [[Badge]]s. Wobbuffet went on to take the loot into the nearby forest while it waited for Jessie and [[James]]'s return. Wynaut reappeared and went for the box containing the Badges, thinking it was food, but it was ambushed by Wobbuffet. Jessie, James and {{MTR}} soon found Wobbuffet, causing it to lose track of Wynaut.
 
Despite Wobbuffet's best efforts, its teammates went on the hunt for the Badges and soon chased after a wild {{p|Wooper}}. Clair and Ash's group were also on the hunt for the Badges, and soon enough, [[Ash's Bayleef]] and {{AP|Noctowl}} located Wynaut and Ash's Badges. Soon, Wooper, followed by Team Rocket, entered the scene and a {{pkmn|battle}} ensued over the Badges. Wynaut jumped out, {{m|counter}}ed {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}}'s {{m|Poison Sting}}, and went back to hiding in the scrubs. Ash arrived on the scene to find Team Rocket with his Badges in hand. They were sent blasting off and Ash's Badges were scattered into the air. Ash managed to recover seven of them, while Wynaut handed Bayleef and Noctowl the eighth Badge. Bayleef and Noctowl identify Wynaut as the one who recovered the eighth Badge, but Wynaut sailed away on a log barge before Ash could see it.
 
====Personality and characteristics====
Wynaut was a mischievous Pokemon, with a tendency to appear out of nowhere whenever a Pokémon was nearby and then disappear whenever people were around. It was an opportunistic thief driven by its appetite for food. Its small stature and extendable arms allow it to make a clean getaway. It targets people and Pokemon whenever they are distracted.

{{p|Loudred}} first appeared in ''[[AG022|A Hole Lotta Trouble]]'', where it ran by and stepped on [[Jessie]] as she was climbing up to the next floor of [[Granite Cave]]. In the [[AG023|next episode]], Jessie accidentally stepped on Loudred as it was sleeping. Loudred then sent her, [[James]], and {{MTR}} flying with an extremely loud {{m|Screech}} attack.
 
In ''[[AG026|Turning Over a Nuzleaf]]'', [[Ash's Corphish]] pinched Loudred's ear, which made the [[wild Pokémon]] go berserk. In its rage, Loudred caused {{TP|May|Silcoon}} to roll out of {{an|May}}'s arms and down into a cave system. The group's other Pokémon followed after Silcoon, but ended up becoming separated from their {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. Later, {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} emerged from its [[Poké Ball]] and stood on Loudred as it slept. It subsequently woke up and promptly sent {{TRT}} flying.
 
[[Professor Birch]] became startled by an angry {{p|Wingull}} while looking at its nest and fell directly on Loudred in ''[[AG027|A Three Team Scheme!]]''. Loudred angrily screeched at him before leaving underground.
 
It reappeared in a flashback in ''[[AG066|Exploud and Clear!]]''.
 
====Personality and characteristics====
Loudred enjoys its slumber and appears to nap most of the time. When disturbed, Loudred becomes incredibly angry and goes berserk.

{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} first encountered {{p|Spoink}} without its {{OBP|pearl|item}} while having breakfast in ''[[AG079|Pearls are a Spoink's Best Friend]]''. After scanning his [[Pokédex]], Ash learned that Spoink become tired without their pearls, so he and his friends agreed to help find its pearl. The group soon recovered the pearl, but Spoink lost it again after a confrontation with {{TRT}}.
 
Team Rocket was blasted off with the pearl, and they later traded it to the [[Magikarp salesman]] for a rare {{p|Feebas}}. After learning this, Ash and his friends confronted the salesman, and Team Rocket also demanded that the pearl be returned to them after they realized their Feebas was actually a {{DL|List of Pokémon temporarily owned by the Team Rocket trio|Magikarp}}. In the midst of the squabble, Spoink was reunited with its pearl and sent Team Rocket blasting off with several powerful {{type|Psychic}} attacks.
 
In ''[[AG093|Clamperl of Wisdom]]'', Ash and his friends were sailing to [[Maisie Island]] when they spotted Spoink out at sea. A rogue wave knocked Spoink into the ocean, but the group was able use a life preserver ring to save it. While it was bouncing around on deck, Spoink tripped and lost its pearl out at sea. Despite the efforts of {{AP|Torkoal}} and the group's {{type|Water}} Pokémon, they were unable to recover the pearl.
 
The group later met [[Isaiah]], a researcher who specializes in {{p|Clamperl}}. Team Rocket attempted to steal Isaiah's rare blue pearl, but Spoink ended up with the item. Spoink went on to befriend a {{pkmn2|wild}} Clamperl and exchanged the blue pearl for Clamperl's pink pearl. Ash, his friends, and Spoink went on to defeat Team Rocket after they stole Clamperl and the blue pearl. Spoink then started to meditate and was able to recover Isaiah's blue pearl in exchange for its pink pearl. However, the kind act left Spoink without a pearl. Realizing the situation, Clamperl gave Spoink the pink pearl as thanks.
 
====Personality and characteristics====
Spoink is deeply attached to its pearl, and quickly becomes frantic and weak without it. Out of desperation, Spoink has a habit of using {{m|Psychic}} to place any round objects on its head in an attempt to replace the pearl. After a while, even not-so-round objects are placed on its head, including an angry {{p|Electrode}}, much to the dismay of those around it.

In ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]'', {{AP|Pikachu}}, who had become possessed by the [[Blue Orb]], awakened Groudon. It subsequently broke out of the chamber and destroyed Team Aqua's ship. Groudon then nullified Kyogre's Drizzle with its {{a|Drought}}, caused [[Monsu Island]]'s volcano to erupt, and stopped Kyogre's tsunami waves with its powerful {{m|Solar Beam}}. It was able to get the upper hand and defeat Kyogre in {{pkmn|battle}} due to {{an|Brock}} and {{an|May}}'s interference. Eventually, the Blue and Red Orbs left the bodies of Pikachu and Archie, respectively, and de-materialized. Afterwards, Groudon returned to Monsu Island's volcano to rest.
 
====Personality and characteristics====
Groudon's personality is unknown as it was only seen awakened once. However, Groudon may be somewhat helpful, as it awoke in order to stop Kyogre from destroying [[Monsu Island]] with a tsunami wave.

[[File:Kyogre Drizzle.png|thumb|left|200px|Activating {{a|Drizzle}}]]
{{p|Kyogre}} first appeared in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]'', where it was sleeping in a containment room aboard [[Team Magma]]'s ship. [[Maxie]] explained that [[Team Magma]] had captured Kyogre in order to ruin [[Team Aqua]]'s plans of expanding the ocean. However, Team Aqua had Groudon in their possession, so the two organizations agreed to trade the two super-ancient [[Legendary Pokémon]] on [[Monsu Island]]. Simultaneously, a counter-operation saw [[Team Aqua]]'s [[Shelly]] infiltrate Team Magma's ship in disguise as a {{tc|Team Magma Grunt}}, allowing her to free Kyogre. After being freed, Kyogre escaped Team Magma's ship and leaped into the ocean. [[Archie]] used the [[Red Orb]] to control Kyogre and ordered it to destroy Team Magma's ship with {{m|Hyper Beam}}. It was later seen sleeping in a containment chamber onboard Team Aqua's submarine. Kyogre once again escaped after {{TRT}} failed to catch it with their electrified net.
 
In ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]'', Kyogre was swimming off the coast of [[Monsu Island]], where its presence caused a {{a|Drizzle|heavy downpour}} and strong winds. Using the Red Orb, Archie took control of Kyogre again and had it attack [[Lance's Dragonite]] before fighting [[Lance]]'s [[Red Gyarados|Gyarados]]. After Groudon appeared, which nullified the [[weather]], Kyogre fought Groudon. [[May's Beautifly]] and [[Brock's Mudkip]] distracted Archie and Kyogre was then defeated by Groudon's {{m|Solar Beam}}. The two orbs separated from Archie and {{AP|Pikachu}}, so Kyogre was no longer filled with rage. Despite Archie being saved by Dragonite, {{Ash}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} fell into the ocean, but both were rescued by Kyogre. Meanwhile, both the Blue and Red Orbs went into the sky and disappeared. Afterwards, Kyogre returned to the depths of the ocean.
 
====Personality and characteristics====
Kyogre's personality is unknown as it was only seen under the control of [[Archie]]. However, it was shown to be immensely powerful, causing large storms and tsunami waves that almost destroyed [[Monsu Island]]. It returned to being a peaceful giant and saved Ash and Pikachu from drowning.

{{p|Deoxys}} first appeared in ''[[AG171|Pokémon Ranger - Deoxys' Crisis! (Part 1)]]'', where it emerged from a portal in the sky. As [[Max]] saw Deoxys, he experienced a vision of space as soon as it went back into a portal.
 
Later, [[Solana]] investigated a cave as it was the source of recent geomagnetic disturbances, but  {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} ended up tagging along. At the end of the cave, Deoxys emerged from a portal above a meteorite that, according to [[Nurse Joy]], fell ten years ago. Deoxys attacked Ash, his friends, and Solana several times. Solana tried capturing Deoxys with her [[Capture Styler]], but her efforts failed as it had to be in [[List of Pokémon with form differences|Normal Forme]]. Max was able to sense Deoxys’s feelings of pain, which Solana was able to confirm with her scanner and used a {{p|Miltank}} [[Poké Assist|to heal Deoxys]]. Max climbed up the meteorite with Meowth and Deoxys up there. Deoxys created a {{m|Safeguard}} around itself, Max, and Meowth. Max soon learned that that Deoxys felt cold and scared as it traversed through space. Deoxys then took the two to [[Deoxys's unnamed world|its world]].
 
In ''[[AG172|Pokémon Ranger - Deoxys' Crisis! (Part 2)]]'', Deoxys continued telling Max its story. After Ash and the others returned to the cave, Deoxys came out of its world. Everyone evacuated the cave as the meteorite was overloading with energy while Deoxys went back in its dimension. Solana theorized that Deoxys emerged from the meteorite, its cradle, after solar winds hit the space rock. The resulting electromagnetic forces caused Deoxys pain, so it fled to its own world. Deoxys emerged from the portal with Max and Meowth still inside. The group {{pkmn|battle}}d Deoxys in an attempt for Solana to capture it, and this also allowed Meowth and Max to escape the alternate dimension. {{AP|Sceptile}} battled Deoxys in order to get it to change into Normal Forme, and managed to do so. Immediately afterwards, Solana successfully used her Capture Styler to capture Deoxys. Solana had it use {{m|Recover}} to heal itself and then protect the group from the meteorite's strong blast of energy. With the disturbance gone, Deoxys left to continue exploring the {{pkmn|world}}.
 
====Personality and characteristics====
Deoxys is very protective of itself and uses its forme changes to its advantage. It uses telepathy, sight sharing and electromagnetic waves to communicate its emotions with others. When Ash's group and {{TRT}} first met Deoxys, [[Max]] and {{MTR}} soon came to understand that it was suffering from pain and loneliness.

{{an|Dawn}} saw the projected soul of Mesprit near [[Lake Verity]] in ''[[DP001|Following A Maiden Voyage!]]''.
 
A statue and silhouette of the same Mesprit appeared in ''[[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence]]''.
 
Mesprit itself appeared in ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'', where it, along with Uxie, came to [[Lake Valor]] after Azelf was captured. However, it was also captured by [[J]] and [[Team Galactic]], but before it was captured, it used {{m|Future Sight}} with Uxie, destroying her ship later on. It was then controlled by the team to help fulfill its goal. In ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', after breaking from their control with the help of [[Dawn's Piplup]] and [[Cynthia's Garchomp]], it helped in stopping [[Cyrus]]'s plot to use {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}.
 
Mesprit also appeared in [[PK21]] with Uxie and Azelf, serving {{AP|Pikachu}} and his friends some apples.

====Azelf====
[[File:Azelf anime.png|thumb|200px|Azelf]]
 
Azelf appeared in spirit form (much like {{p|Mesprit}} did to {{an|Dawn}} in ''[[DP001|Following a Maiden's Voyage!]]'') to {{Ash}} in ''[[DP078|Pruning a Passel of Pals!]]''.
 
Azelf first appeared in its physical form in ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'', where it was the first to be captured by [[J]] and [[Team Galactic]]. It was then controlled by the team to help fulfill its goal. In ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', after breaking from their control with the help of [[Ash's Pikachu]] and {{AP|Staraptor}}, it helped stop [[Cyrus]]'s plot to use {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}.

Uxie's "soul" appeared to Brock in ''[[DP133|Uncrushing Defeat!]]'', much in the same way those of {{p|Mesprit}} and {{p|Azelf}} appeared to {{an|Dawn}} and {{Ash}}, respectively.
 
Uxie appeared in its physical form in ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'', where it, along with Mesprit, came to [[Lake Valor]] after Azelf was captured. However, it was also captured by [[J]] and [[Team Galactic]], but before that happened, it used {{m|Future Sight}} with Mesprit, destroying J's ship later on. It was then controlled by the team to help fulfill its goal. In ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', after breaking from their control with the help of [[Brock's Croagunk]] and [[Ash's Gliscor]], it helped in stopping [[Cyrus]]'s plot to use {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}.

A {{p|Marill}} with the ability to {{m|Sing}} appeared in ''[[PK18|Pikachu's Exploration Club]]'', ''[[PK19|Pikachu's Ice Adventure]]'', ''[[PK20|Pikachu's Big Sparking Search]]'', and ''[[PK21|Pikachu's Big Mysterious Adventure]]''. It seems to be similar to {{an|Jigglypuff}} in that it is offended whenever its listeners fall asleep and responds by inflating itself in anger.
 
====Personality and characteristics====
As stated before, this Marill is very similar to the recurring Jigglypuff as it loves to sing for an audience and gets furious when its audience falls asleep on it. The only difference between Marill and Jigglypuff is that Jigglypuff scribbles on the audience, whereas Marill uses Tail Whip on the audience.

}}
{{p|Hippopotas}} made his first appearance in ''[[DP044|Mass Hip-Po-Sis!]]'', where {{Ash}}, with the aid of {{ashfr}}, rescued the Pokémon from being trapped upon a high ledge. {{si|Rhonda}} and her [[Sinnoh Now]] crew revealed that they were on assignment filming a herd of Hippo Pokémon. It was then discovered that Hippopotas was lost, having been separated from its herd. As a result, Ash and his friends helped Hippopotas find his way back. Like a few other Pokémon, Hippopotas seemed to like riding atop of Ash's head.
 
{{TRT}} attempted to steal Hippopotas multiple times for {{an|Giovanni}}, but their plans were foiled each time. All the while, [[Jessie]] had trouble saying the Pokémon's species name. Hippopotas fell into a stream after one of Team Rocket's attempts to capture him. With the assistance of [[Nurse Joy]], Ash and his friends fetched a sackful of dry sand to help Hippopotas recover. Later, the group were able to reunite Hippopotas with his herd.
 
Hippopotas's second and final appearance was in ''[[DP065|Sleight of Sand!]]'' with his father, {{p|Hippowdon}}. In this episode, [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]] also wanted to kidnap the Hippo Pokémon, but they failed.
 
====Personality and characteristics====
Hippopotas is a happy-go-lucky Pokémon that enjoys being close to its herd of family and friends. He wags his tail when excited. Hippopotas was initially anxious and even bit down on {{Ash}}'s hand when they first met in ''[[DP044|Mass Hip-Po-Sis]]''. After he was rescued from a precarious situation and offered some food, Hippopotas became incredibly friendly towards Ash and {{ashfr}}. He has a healthy appetite and can swallow a large apple whole. In ''[[DP065|Sleight of Sand]]'', Hippopotas instantly recognized the group and happily greeted them.

* Although Hippopotas weighs {{tt|109.1 pounds|49.5 kilograms}} in the games, Ash has no problem carrying him. This is an example of [[anime physics]].

{{p|Zekrom}} first appeared in ''[[BW001|In the Shadow of Zekrom!]]'', where it was hiding in a dark storm cloud. It zapped electricity at {{AP|Pikachu}}, subsequently disabling him of using his {{t|Electric}} powers. This was not found out until Ash's first battle with [[Trip]], which Ash lost thanks to this temporary loss.
 
In ''[[BW002|Enter Iris and Axew!]]'', Zekrom appeared once more and caused a thunderstorm. The storm hit Pikachu again and he regained his Electric powers.
 
Zekrom made further appearances in flashbacks.

Once {{p|Thundurus}} appeared, the two engaged in a fierce battle. He then appeared in ''[[BW060|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 2]]'', where he ultimately was calmed by Landorus.
 
Tornadus appeared in both of his Formes in ''[[BW097|Unova's Survival Crisis!]]'', where he was summoned to the [[Abyssal Ruins]] by {{an|Giovanni}} and sent on a rampage alongside Thundurus and Landorus. Eventually, he was freed by {{an|Meloetta}} and departed.

It appeared on [[Milos Island]] after {{TRT}} destroyed its shrine, then began fighting with {{p|Tornadus}}. Later, when {{p|Landorus}} tried to stop them, they fought Landorus together, even after [[Jessie]], [[James]], {{MTR}} and [[Dr. Zager]] tried to capture them.

{{p|Reshiram}} first appeared in ''[[BW110|The Name's N!]]'' in a flashback {{an|N}} had during his time in his [[N's Castle|castle]]. It flew away when the castle was set on fire.
 
It reappeared in ''[[BW118|Secrets From Out of the Fog!]]'' in another flashback, following N's admission that he was once a member of [[Team Plasma]]. In this flashback, it was revealed that Reshiram was responsible for burning the castle.
 
Reshiram reappeared in a flashback in ''[[BW120|Ash and N: A Clash of Ideals!]]''.
 
Reshiram was revived from the [[Light Stone]] in ''[[BW122|What Lies Beyond Truth and Ideals!]]''. Following the revival, [[Colress]] zapped it with his machine and [[Ghetsis]] took control of it. Because of {{AP|Pikachu}} and Reshiram rebelling against the machine, Colress and Ghetsis lost control of Reshiram. Before Reshiram flies off, N stopped it and said that he always wanted to meet it. N asked Reshiram how it felt when it saw everyone battle against evil in the ruins, and Reshiram silently responded to him by looking at him.
 
N also asked if it could believe in humans as they believe in Pokémon. He then told Reshiram that just like it, he will keep fighting for the ideal world that everyone can live in. Reshiram accepted N's request and flew away peacefully into the sky.
 
====Personality and characteristics====
Reshiram's personality is largely a mystery, as it was only seen in flashbacks and under the control of Ghetsis. However, it appears to have a close association with N, and it is able to effectively commune with him.

Kyogre made a cameo appearance in ''[[SS031|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', where it was shown being awakened by the presence of the [[Giant Rock]].
 
It played a significant role in ''[[SS032|Mega Evolution Special III]]''. [[Lysandre]] first alerted [[Alain]] and [[Steven]] to Kyogre's appearance off the coast of [[Sootopolis City]], where it was shown in its [[Primal Reversion|primal state]]. It soon clashed with Primal Groudon over the Giant Rock. It also fought [[Steven's Metagross|Steven's Mega Metagross]], and was almost defeated by it until Metagross was beaten by {{me|Rayquaza}}. Kyogre was quickly defeated by Mega Rayquaza's {{m|Dragon Ascent}} and reverted back to its normal form.
 
Kyogre reappeared in flashbacks during ''[[XY092|Cloudy Fate, Bright Future!]]'' and ''[[XY138|The First Day of the Rest of Your Life!]]''.
 
====Personality and characteristics====
Primal Kyogre was fixated on the [[Giant Rock]] and was prepared to attack anyone who interfered. It was heavily reliant on {{m|Origin Pulse}} in battle and used {{m|Sheer Cold}} to transform the ocean into an icy wasteland to its own advantage.

Groudon made a cameo appearance in ''[[SS031|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', where it was shown being awakened by the presence of the [[Giant Rock]].
 
It played a bigger role in ''[[SS032|Mega Evolution Special III]]'', where it was shown in its [[Primal Reversion|primal state]]. As it made its way to the Giant Rock it left a trail of boiling magma behind it, making the area incredibly warm. It fought with Primal Kyogre over the Giant Rock and defeated [[Alain's Charizard]]. Primal Groudon was quickly defeated by Mega Rayquaza's {{m|Dragon Ascent}} and reverted back to its normal form.
 
The same Groudon reappeared in flashbacks during ''[[XY092|Cloudy Fate, Bright Future!]]'' and ''[[XY138|The First Day of the Rest of Your Life!]]''.
 
====Personality and characteristics====
Primal Groudon was fixated on the [[Giant Rock]] and was prepared to attack anyone who interfered with its plans. Not much was seen of Groudon's personality as it was mostly seen in a fit of rage.

A group of {{p|Pikipek}} is part of a family led by a {{p|Trumbeak}} and a {{p|Toucannon}} that lives in a forest on Melemele Island. The Pikipek are bred from [[Pokémon Egg]]s by Toucannon. By mistake, a {{TP|Ash|Rowlet}} was born into the nest of Pikipek. The Rowlet would grow up alongside the Pikipek but would never be fully accepted by them, Trumbeak, and Toucannon.
 
The Pikipek first appeared in ''[[SM004|First Catch in Alola, Ketchum-Style!]]'', taking fruit from the citizens of [[Hau'oli City]]. The people of Melemele Island allow the group of Pikipek to take their fruit so that people and Pokémon can live in harmony. The next day, the Pikipek and Trumbeak invaded {{an|Bewear}}'s den and took the berries. Later, back at their nest, the group was attacked by {{TRT}} who were trying to get Bewear's berries back. Even though having been banished from the group earlier, Rowlet saved them. They thanked it and then watched as Rowlet left the group to join {{Ash}}.
 
Three of them reappeared in ''[[SM018|A Seasoned Search!]]'', where they were briefly reunited with Rowlet when Ash and {{an|Mallow}} visited its nest to see if its flock knew where to find [[Nectar|Yellow Nectar]]. However, they didn't know where to find it.
 
Five of them reappeared in [[SM097]], when Rowlet visited the group family after losing to [[Hau]] and his {{p|Dartrix}}.

The Pikipek are shown to be friendly Pokémon and seem to have a good bond with {{AP|Rowlet}}. They are usually seen together as a flock and follow Trumbeak around whenever they are collecting fruit.

{{p|Trumbeak}} is part of a family of {{p|Pikipek}} led by a {{p|Toucannon}} that lives in a forest on Melemele Island. Its exact position in the group is unknown, although it is the second-in-command after Toucannon. By mistake, a {{TP|Ash|Rowlet}} was born into the nest of Pikipek. The Rowlet would grow up alongside the Pikipek but would never be fully accepted by them, Trumbeak, and Toucannon.
 
Trumbeak first appeared in ''[[SM004|First Catch in Alola, Ketchum-Style!]]'', leading the Pikipek in taking fruit from the citizens of [[Hau'oli City]]. The people of Melemele Island allow the group of Pikipek to take their fruit so that people and Pokémon can live in harmony. After taking the fruit back to their nest, it was discovered that Rowlet had accidentally brought a wind chime instead of fruit. Trumbeak scolded Rowlet for this and banished it from the group.
 
The next day, Trumbeak led the Pikipek out once to more to get more food and invaded {{an|Bewear}}'s den and took all the berries. Returning to the nest, Trumbeak congratulated Rowlet who had returned with a melon before the group was attacked by {{TRT}} who were trying to get Bewear's berries back. With help from {{Ash}}, Rowlet managed to save them. They thanked it, with Trumbeak hugging Rowlet and then watched as Rowlet left the group to join {{Ash}}.
 
Trumbeak reappeared in ''[[SM018|A Seasoned Search!]]'', where it was briefly reunited with Rowlet when Ash and {{an|Mallow}} visited its nest to see if its flock knew where to find [[Nectar|Yellow Nectar]]. However, they didn't know where to find it.
 
Trumbeak reappeared in ''[[SM090|Securing the Future!]]'' alongside Toucannon, where they helped {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Necrozma}} regain its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|true form}} by giving it some of their Z-Power.
 
Trumbeak reappeared in [[SM097]], when Rowlet visited the group family after losing to [[Hau]] and his {{p|Dartrix}}. Trumbeak used {{m|Bullet Seed}} alongside Toucannon, which helped teach Rowlet how to use {{m|Seed Bomb}}.
 
====Personality and characteristics====
[[File:Trumbeak Rowlet.png|thumb|left|250px|Trumbeak and Rowlet]]
Trumbeak has been shown to be rather stern, but caring all the same. It scolded Rowlet when it failed to bring food back to the nest and became annoyed at Rowlet when it fell asleep as it was telling Rowlet off. Despite being annoyed towards Rowlet, Trumbeak praises it when it returned with a melon and is thankful, as seen when Rowlet helped save them from Team Rocket. It even gave Rowlet a hug as it left to join Ash's team. This was seen again in [[SM097]], where it welcomed Rowlet back into its flock and helped teach it how to use {{m|Seed Bomb}}.

[[File:Pikipek Egg.png|thumb|left|250px|Toucannon hatching the Pikipek Eggs]]
{{p|Toucannon}} is the leader of a group of Pikipek and one Trumbeak that lives in a forest on Melemele Island. Toucannon is responsible for hatching the Pikipek from [[Pokémon Egg]]s, while it leaves the hunt for food to Trumbeak and the Pikipek. By mistake, a {{TP|Ash|Rowlet}} was born into the nest of Pikipek. The Rowlet would grow up alongside the Pikipek but would never be fully accepted by them, Trumbeak, and Toucannon.
 
Toucannon first appeared in ''[[SM004|First Catch in Alola, Ketchum-Style!]]'', waiting at its nest for the Pikipek, Trumbeak, and Rowlet to return with fruit. When it turned out Rowlet had accidentally brought a wind chime instead of fruit, Trumbeak gave it a scolding and banished it from the group. The next day as the Pikipek and Trumbeak were out looking for food, Toucannon was thinking back to the time where Rowlet's egg hatched among the Pikipek when Rowlet returned with a melon just as the group was attacked by {{TRT}} who were trying to get {{an|Bewear}}'s berries back. With help from {{Ash}}, Rowlet managed to save them. Ash planned to catch Rowlet, but upon seeing it happy with its family, he decided not to. Nevertheless, Toucannon successfully encouraged Rowlet to join Ash.
 
Toucannon reappeared in ''[[SM018|A Seasoned Search!]]'', where it was briefly reunited with Rowlet when Ash and {{an|Mallow}} visited its nest to see if its flock knew where to find [[Nectar|Yellow Nectar]]. However, they didn't know where to find it.
 
Toucannon reappeared in ''[[SM090|Securing the Future!]]'' alongside Trumbeak, where they helped {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Necrozma}} regain its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|true form}} by giving it some of their Z-Power.
 
Toucannon reappeared in [[SM097]], when Rowlet visited the group family after losing to [[Hau]] and his {{p|Dartrix}}. Trumbeak used {{m|Bullet Seed}} alongside Toucannon, which helped teach Rowlet how to use {{m|Seed Bomb}}.
 
====Personality and characteristics====
Toucannon is shown to have a caring personality as shown when it was looking after the young Pikipek and Rowlet. Toucannon was shown to be worried for Rowlet after it was banished from the group, as seen when it was pacing about the nest, remembering the time Rowlet accidentally hatched from an {{pkmn|Egg}}. Toucannon is also shown to get annoyed if someone touches its beak, as seen when {{Rotom}} did so to see if it felt hot, making Toucannon intentionally heat up its beak to burn Rotom.
 
Toucannon is shown as being helpful towards Rowlet even after it left the family. This was seen in [[SM097]], where, after Rowlet's loss to [[Hau]] and {{p|Dartrix}}, Toucannon helped it learn {{m|Seed Bomb}}, which would later be essential to Rowlet's victory in a rematch against Dartrix.

[[File:Stoutland and Litten.png|thumb|left|250px|Stoutland and Litten]]
{{p|Stoutland}} was a friend of a {{AP|Litten}} that wandered around [[Melemele Island]]. It was an elderly Pokémon that Litten looked out for, by giving it food, and keeping it company. {{Ash}} intended to catch Litten but he gave up when he discovered the Pokémon giving food and company to Stoutland.
 
Stoutland reappeared in ''[[SM016|They Might Not Be Giants!]]'', where it and Litten moved under a canal bridge. It encountered [[Ash's Rowlet]] and [[Lana's Popplio]] when the two had become separated from their Trainers, and instructed a reluctant Litten to guide them back.
 
Stoutland reappeared once again in ''[[SM021|One Journey Ends, Another Begins...]]'', visibly worse in condition and coughing constantly. It had attempted to teach Litten {{m|Fire Fang}} by demonstrating it, but Litten ended up hurting itself when it attempted to bite a rock. Stoutland later collapsed, and Litten ran off to get Ash's help, who proceeded to carry it to a Pokémon Center. Stoutland was taken into the center's emergency room and hooked up to an electrocardiogram as it was attended to by the center's Nurse Joy and her {{TP|Nurse Joy|Blissey}} and {{TP|Nurse Joy|Comfey}}. Nurse Joy came out to the waiting room to inform Ash that Stoutland was not ill or injured, and Litten rushed through the open door to check on Stoutland while the two humans agreed that they knew what was going to happen.
 
Stoutland later left the Pokémon Center and returned to its home under the bridge with Litten, unsuccessfully attempting to teach it Fire Fang again and falling asleep during Litten's turn. After curling up into Stoutland afterwards, Litten awoke in fear after a dream where it was unable to keep up with Stoutland and discovered it had disappeared. Stoutland's disappearance and Litten's unsuccessful search for it coincided with a heavy rainstorm. After being found by Ash, Litten chased a tree's last leaf when it was blown away by the wind after the rain stopped. It then discovered a cloud formation shaped like Stoutland smiling down upon it.
 
Stoutland briefly reappeared in ''[[SM032|Treasure Hunt, Akala Style!]]'' during a flashback.
 
Stoutland reappeared in [[SM108]] as a ghost, confirming that it had passed away after the events of ''One Journey Ends, Another Begins...''. Stoutland was reunited with Litten, who had since evolved into Torracat, and saw how far it had come with Ash. It then taught Torracat how to use {{m|Fire Blast}}.
 
====Personality and characteristics====
A caring Pokémon, Stoutland got Litten to help return [[Ash's Rowlet]] and [[Lana's Popplio]] to their respective Trainers, despite Litten's reluctance to do so. Stoutland is shown to be kind and helpful in ''[[SM021|One Journey Ends, Another Begins...]]''; before it disappeared, it was teaching Litten how to use Fire Fang.

Stufful first appeared in ''A Dream Encounter!'', in a video on {{an|Professor Kukui}}'s television. It was one of the Pokémon included in a presentation on [[Professor Burnet]] as the fifteenth recipient of the "Alola Woman on the Year" award and her workplace, Aether Paradise. It appeared again when {{Ash}} and {{ashcl}} visited Aether Paradise in ''[[SM046|Deceiving Appearances!]]''.
 
During a plot by {{TRT}} to steal the Pokémon at Aether Paradise in [[SM096]], Stufful met and became attached to [[Jessie]], although it refused to be caught. When Bewear came to pick up Team Rocket, Bewear recognized Stufful as its child and took them all back to its den. While doing so, it allowed Stufful to spin a helicopter blade that would allow them to fly.
 
Stufful reappeared in [[SM102]] and [[SM103]].
 
====Personality and characteristics====

Stufful was shown to be a carefree Pokémon, constantly walking throughout the conservation area of [[Aether Paradise]]. It is also a very affectionate Pokémon, as shown in [[SM096]], where it grew attached to [[Jessie]] by grabbing on to the back of her hair.
 
Since its reunion with Bewear, Stufful has assisted her in her rescues of Team Rocket, like in [[SM096]], where it spun a helicopter propeller; and in [[SM103]], where it alerted the trio to Bewear's arrival.

In ''[[SM050|Faba's Revenge!]]'', [[Faba]] created an [[Ultra Wormhole]] using Nebby's power. After appearing in the [[Aether Foundation]] basement laboratories, {{p|Nihilego}} promptly knocked out Faba before reaching out for {{an|Lillie}}. However, she was protected by [[Lusamine]], who was captured instead and then taken through the Wormhole. After attaching itself to Lusamine, it started playing on her desires and reduced her mentality to that of a child's.
 
As such, when {{an|Gladion}}, {{Ash}}, and {{ashcl}} came to save her in ''[[SM053|Rescuing the Unwilling!]]'', she instead ran away, releasing her Pokémon enhanced by Nihilego's power as a deterrent. Nihilego also used various other means to deter the children, but in the end was cornered by Ash, Lillie, and Gladion. When Lillie managed to get through to Lusamine, Nihilego interfered, trying to keep Lusamine to itself. In the end, Ash managed to defeat it using {{m|10,000,000 Volt Thunderbolt}} in ''[[SM054|10,000,000 Reasons to Fight!]]'', allowing Lusamine to separate from it.
 
A Nihilego made an appearance in the past, where it attacked Lillie, and was then in turn attacked by {{p|Silvally}}. However, it is uncertain if it is the same one.
 
====Personality and characteristics====
Nihilego has been shown to be a very hostile Pokémon, attacking anyone on sight and even kidnapping Lusamine. According to Gladion, Nihilego might have an interest in humans, which is why it fused itself with Lusamine, in an attempt to learn more about them.

{{p|Naganadel}} debuted in ''[[SM084|The Shape of Love to Come!]]'' in [[Ash's Poipole]]'s dream. It made its physical debut in ''[[SM089|The Prism Between Light and Darkness!]]'', where it encountered the [[Ultra Guardians]] after they arrived in its home world with {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Lunala}}'s help. After being healed, Naganadel [[Talking Pokémon|telepathically]] told everyone how Necrozma lost its light saving the world from a meteor, causing everything to become a dark and barren wasteland. Afterwards, the Ultra Guardians decided to help restore Naganadel's world by sharing their Z-Power with Necrozma in order to turn it back to its former self.
 
In ''[[SM090|Securing the Future!]]'', Naganadel helped Necrozma regain its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|true form}} by giving it some of its Z-Power. Once successful, Necrozma turned back into Ultra Necrozma and restored Naganadel's home world to its former glory. As the Ultra Guardians prepared to leave, Naganadel informed Ash that Poipole wished to stay behind and protect its home, much to Ash's sadness.

{{p|Lunala}} first appeared in ''[[SM087|Filling the Light with Darkness!]]'', where it was playfully chasing [[Nebby]] through an Ultra Wormhole. However, both of them soon found themselves being chased by {{p|Necrozma}}. Lunala later emerged out of the Ultra Wormhole at the [[Altar of the Sunne]], appearing before {{Ash}}, {{ashcl}}, {{an|Gladion}}, [[Lusamine]], [[Wicke]], [[Faba]], and [[Professor Burnet]], with Necrozma still chasing it.
 
[[File:Dawn Wings Necrozma anime.png|thumb|left|250px|Lunala merged with {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Necrozma}}]]
Lunala reappeared in ''[[SM088|Full Moon and Many Arms!]]'', where Necrozma continued to chase it around [[Melemele Island]]. Despite the best efforts of {{p|Tapu Koko}}, Necrozma was able to merge with Lunala, becoming {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|Dawn Wings Necrozma}}. Lunala was later freed when Nebby appeared and forced Necrozma to separate from it. Lunala was subsequently taken to the [[Ultra Guardians]] base below the [[Pokémon School]] to be healed. Later, Lunala was able to recover itself by using the energy emitted from Ash, {{an|Kiawe}}, {{an|Lana}}, and Gladion's [[Z-Ring]]s.
 
In ''[[SM089|The Prism Between Light and Darkness!]]'', Lunala turned into its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Solgaleo and Lunala|Full Moon phase}} and traveled through an Ultra Wormhole with the [[Ultra Guardians]], whereupon they arrived at {{AP|Poipole}}'s home world. While the Ultra Guardians stayed back to assist {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Naganadel}} at Poipole's home, Lunala went ahead to face Necrozma. Later, Lunala was defeated by Necrozma, but was rescued by [[Gladion's Silvally]].
 
In ''[[SM090|Securing the Future!]]'', Lunala helped Necrozma by giving it some of its Z-Power. This forced Necrozma to release Nebby, but it also angered Necrozma into attacking everyone again. After giving Gladion a [[Lunalium Z]], Lunala and Gladion performed {{m|Menacing Moonraze Maelstrom}}, while Ash and Nebby used {{m|Searing Sunraze Smash}}. The combined Z-Moves successfully gave Necrozma enough light to regain its true form and restore Poipole's home world. Afterwards, it, Nebby, and the Ultra Guardians went back to Alola.
 
====Personality and characteristics====
[[File:Lunala Full Moon phase anime.png|thumb|250px|Lunala in its Full Moon phase]]
Lunala is shown to have a caring attitude towards humans, as evident in ''[[SM088|Full Moon and Many Arms!]]'', where it saved {{an|Lillie}}, a girl it barely knew, from falling when she was knocked off her [[Poké Ride|Ride]] {{p|Altaria}}. Lunala is also been shown as being playful, as evident by the way it was chasing [[Nebby]] through an Ultra Wormhole.

{{p|Necrozma}} first appeared in ''[[SM087|Filling the Light with Darkness!]]'', where it chased after [[Nebby]] and {{p|Lunala}} in an [[Ultra Wormhole]]. They emerged out of the Ultra Wormhole at the [[Altar of the Sunne]], appearing before {{Ash}}, {{ashcl}}, {{an|Gladion}}, [[Lusamine]], [[Wicke]], [[Faba]], and [[Professor Burnet]].
 
It reappeared in ''[[SM088|Full Moon and Many Arms!]]'', where, despite the best efforts of {{p|Tapu Koko}} and the [[Ultra Guardians]], it was able to merge with Lunala and form {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Necrozma|Dawn Wings Necrozma}}. In this state, a special unit from [[Team Rocket]] attempted to catch it, but it was able to break through the net easily. Nebby then appeared and attacked Necrozma with {{m|Sunsteel Strike}}, forcing it to separate from Lunala. However, Necrozma then merged with Nebby to form Dusk Mane Necrozma, and left through another Ultra Wormhole.
 
In ''[[SM089|The Prism Between Light and Darkness!]]'', the Ultra Guardians and Lunala followed Necrozma through an Ultra Wormhole and arrived at {{AP|Poipole}}'s home world. While Lunala went ahead to face Necrozma again, the Ultra Guardians stayed behind with {{p|Naganadel}} and were told of how Necrozma lost its light saving the world from a meteor. Afterwards, the Ultra Guardians found Lunala in the process of being defeated by Necrozma and rescued it. Intent on freeing Nebby and restoring Poipole's home world, Ash, {{an|Kiawe}}, {{an|Lana}}, and {{an|Gladion}} fired simultaneous Z-Moves at Necrozma, hoping that their Z-Power would restore Necrozma to its true self as the Blinding One.
 
In ''[[SM090|Securing the Future!]]'', Necrozma absorbed the Z-Moves, but that wasn't enough to get it to let go of Nebby. However, with the combined Z-Power of the Ultra Guardians and their allies back in Alola, Necrozma was filled with enough light to release Nebby from its grasp. Despite their success, Necrozma was only angered by the attempt and attacked everyone so it could absorb Nebby once again. With the Z-Crystals they received from Nebby and Lunala, Ash and Gladion performed {{m|Searing Sunraze Smash}} and {{m|Menacing Moonraze Maelstrom}}, respectively. The two Z-Moves fully restored Necrozma back to its original self, Ultra Necrozma. Necrozma then used its power to restore Poipole's home world back to its previous state. Afterwards, Necrozma appeared in Alola before dissipating into light.
 
In the anime, the [[Aether Foundation]], assuming that Necrozma is an [[Ultra Beast]], gives it the codename UB Black (Japanese: '''{{tt|UB:BLACK|ユービー:ブラック}}''' ''UB: Black'').
 
====Personality and characteristics====
In its weakened, black state, Necrozma was shown to be a highly aggressive Pokémon. It had a strong desire to absorb the light emitted by Lunala, determinedly chasing it all the way to [[Alola]]. It also took out anything that stood in its way, such as [[Nebby]] when it fought to protect Lunala. According to a legend regarding Necrozma, it was once a benevolent Pokémon that gave light to the Alola region along with the other members of the [[Light trio]]. This benevolent side was first seen in a flashback in ''[[SM089|The Prism Between Light and Darkness!]]'', where it stopped a meteor from crashing into Poipole's world.
 
Upon being restored to its original form, Necrozma became a benevolent being once again, using its regained power to restore Poipole's world back to its original lustrous, green state.

In {{DL|Eevee, Where Are You Going?|Episode 3|the third episode}} of the segment, they decided to try [[Mantine Surf]]ing on a nearby wave. Eevee initially kept getting knocked off whenever Mantine did a flip, Eevee eventually learned how to time its jumps with Mantine's flips, allowing it to stay on Mantine's back. Mantine reappeared in {{DL|Eevee, Where Are You Going?|Episode 4|the fourth episode}} of the segment, where, after arriving at [[Alola]], it said its farewells to Eevee and headed back out to sea. It reappeared in a flashback in [[SM099]].
 
It made its main series debut in [[SM102]], where it met up with [[Nagisa]] again and helped it Mantine Surf with {{an|Lana}}. Later, it and several other Mantine were captured by {{TRT}} before being rescued by {{Ash}} and {{ashcl}}. Afterwards, it and the other Mantine returned to the sea.

In [[SM101]], Ash and Dia sent Guzzlord through an [[Ultra Wormhole]] and back to its home world, with the help of the Shiny Tapu Koko, who made it possible for [[Z-Move]]s to be used again in the Ultra Ruin.
 
====Personality and characteristics====
Guzzlord is shown to be a strong Pokémon, managing to stand the attacks of five different Pokémon at once. Guzzlord is also a ruthless Pokémon, attacking people and Pokémon without mercy, and is capable of causing mass destruction. Unlike other Ultra Beasts in the anime, Guzzlord resisted being sent through an Ultra Wormhole; it was either unable to understand its significance, or simply refused to return to its home world.
