While most of the Totem Pokémon from the {{pkmn|anime}} are based on those from the games, Totem {{p|Trevenant}} is the only anime-original Totem Pokémon and the only depicted Totem Pokémon that is neither a [[Generation VII]] Pokémon nor a [[regional form]]. In addition, not every Totem Pokémon was adapted, even from the original games.

A Totem Gumshoos and its ally

Totem Pokémon (Japanese: ぬしポケモン Leader Pokémon) are a type of variant Pokémon that are battled at the end of every trial, having been trained up by the respective Trial Captain to fulfill that role. With the exception of Totem Wishiwashi, these Pokémon appear larger and weigh approximately two to four times as much as other Pokémon of the same species.

In the games

At the start of a battle, Totem Pokémon are enveloped in a special aura which boosts one or more of its stats by a fixed number of stages. According to Wicke, their size and aura are a result of being bathed in the energy spilled from Ultra Wormholes, the same kind that the Ultra Beasts use to wield their Ability Beast Boost, which is further revealed in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon to be Necrozma's light. Totem Pokémon are battled in SOS Battles, which allows them to summon an ally to help.

SOS Battles with Totem Pokémon differ from regular SOS Battles in that their supply of allies may be limited, which allies they call is not influenced by the weather, and they call allies at specific times rather than at random (so their calls are unaffected by the Adrenaline Orb and status conditions). Both the Totem Pokémon and their allies have more advanced artificial intelligence than wild Pokémon, mirroring Trainer behavior. Totem Pokémon each also hold a specific item, usually one that will synergize effectively with their particular strategies or cover their weaknesses. Due to the island challenge rules, Totem Pokémon and their allies cannot be caught. Like all wild Pokémon, if the player steals an item from a Totem Pokémon (such as by using Thief), the player's Pokémon will still be holding the stolen item at the end of battle.

Totem-sized Pokémon

Totem-sized Pokémon have larger heights and weights compared to their original counterparts, which changes the mechanics of some moves (such as Low Kick and Grass Knot). Totem-sized Pokémon can be only obtained in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, where they can be received from Samson Oak at Heahea Beach after meeting him for the first time at Route 2 depending on the number of Totem Stickers the player has obtained.

Totem-sized Pokémon are Shiny-locked, and their sizes cannot be passed down through Pokémon breeding. Even if their species normally have multiple Abilities, Totem-sized Pokémon can only have a particular Ability, as listed below. The Ability is the species' Hidden Ability if the species has two standard Abilities, and the species' sole standard Ability otherwise; thus Totem-sized Pokémon's Ability cannot be changed by Ability Capsule. Totem-sized Pokémon always have at least three perfect IVs.

Totem-sized Pokémon that originally appeared as Totem Pokémon in Pokémon Sun and Moon are the only ones that can be traded to the original Sun and Moon games, and consequentially, can also be transferred to Pokémon Bank. Totem-sized Pokémon based on Totem Pokémon that only appear in Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon cannot be transferred to Pokémon Bank or traded to the original Sun and Moon games.

Totem-sized Pokémon that are transferred to Pokémon HOME and Pokémon Sword and Shield are turned into their normal-sized forms.

Main article: Sun (Adventures) → Quarter

This Wishiwashi is the Totem of Brooklet Hill. When Sun traveled to Brooklet Hill to begin his first trial, he encountered a wild Solo Form Wishiwashi that helped retrieve a one yen coin he dropped in the water. Taking a liking to the Pokémon, Sun decided to name it Quarter and asked it to help him find the Totem Pokémon of Brooklet Hill. Quarter led Sun around the area for hours, but failed to find the Totem each time. Angered by this, Sun's Litten, nicknamed En, attacked Quarter, causing it to get scared and run away.

Several other Wishiwashi soon began surrounding Sun and leaped out of the water as a School Form Wishiwashi, revealing that Quarter and the other Wishiwashi were the Totem the whole time. Sun eventually defeated the Totem by attacking its left eye, which contained Quarter, the leader controlling the other Wishiwashi. With Quarter defeated, the Totem broke apart into several Solo Form Wishiwashi.
