Mankey evolves into the much stronger Primeape at level 28. It is severely lacking in all of its stats, except Speed and Attack. It has the innate trait Vital Spirit (cannot be put to sleep). Mankey is not very popular for battling, due to the fact that it is unevolved and has low stats. However, many people use Mankey early on in Red/Yellow/FireRed/LeafGreen, due to its very useful Fighting type moves such as Low Kick. ...

When Ash's Charmander evolves into Charmeleon, its personality changes completely. It becomes a very disobedient Pokémon and only fights when it feels like doing so. It first showed its disapproval of Ash's instructions when Ash congratulated it on its evolution. At that time, it breathed fire onto Ash's face. It evolves into Charizard 3 episodes later. When Ash met Richie in the Whirl Islands, his Charmander, Zippo, had evolved into an obedient Charmeleon. As of the end of ...

"Pikachu" is probably a portmanteau, derived from "pika", meaning "spark" or "sparkle" of lightning in the Japanese language, and "chū", an onomatopoeia in the Japanese language for the squeak made by a mouse.

Ash and his companions were the first humans to witness a Bulbasaur evolution ceremony, in which all the Bulbasaur in the world gather at one place. Ash's Bulbasaur has been around longer than all of his other Pokémon with the exception of Pikachu. Before joining Ash's team, Bulbasaur lived with a girl named Melanie, who took ...

Unlike its evolutionary predecessors Charmander and Charmeleon, Charizard has powerful wings, giving it the ability to fly, supplementing the fiery breath it inherits from its predecessors. Charizard's breath is even hotter than Charmeleon's though; at full blast (which turns its tail-fire white-hot) its blasts of fire can melt solid rock or 10,000 ton glaciers. Wild Charizards tend to focus on finding worthy challengers, relying on their claws and strength to hunt or ward off lesser foes, using its flame breath only on opponents they ...

Charizard, as one of the first-generation Pokémon, has seen on-and-off use in player-vs.-player play, usually taking advantage of its relatively high physical attack statistic and generous selection of available attacks rather than its Fire-type attacks. It reached its period of greatest popularity between the release of Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen and Pokémon Emerald. A particular Charizard setup, known as "Bellyzard," would use the move called "Belly Drum" to greatly increase its attack while lowering its h ...

Pikachu are ground-dwelling rodents with an affinity for electricity and lightning. They live in forests and plains, and forage for berries. The glandular pouches residing in its cheeks allow it to charge up and store electricity in chemical form, which it can discharge in bolts of lightning or ball lightning to defend itself from attackers (or attack its foe in a Pokémon battle), but it occasionally discharges electricity to roast a berry to make it tender enough to eat, or simply to keep from overloading. (An inability to discharge electr ...

Technical Machines, or TMs for short, are special machines that teach a Pokémon a new move, often a move it wouldn't normally learn on its own. They are usable only once; after teaching one Pokémon one move, a TM is used up. They are depicted in the trading card game as a small device that a trainer inserts their pokéball into, but in Fire Red/Leaf Green, TMs are depicted as CDs, color-coded to indicate the type of move they teach. There are 50 different TMs per game; each one teaches a different move and is found in ...

The Snag Machine, in Pokémon Colosseum, is a device that allows a Pokémon trainer to steal Pokémon from another trainer, despite the usual prohibition against doing so. The Snag Machine allows a trainer to capture another trainer's Pokémon normally with a Poké Ball, and, in Pokémon Colosseum, the protagonist Wes uses it to steal the Shadow Pokémon from the trainers who have corrupted them, in order to purify the liberated Pokémon. His theft of the machine is what sets him on the ...

A wild Loudred lives on Dewford Island and kept being woken up and causing trouble while Ash and Team Rocket were there. Another Loudred battled against Ash's Treecko when they both evolved. Loudred was also featured in the short Gotta Dance, where Loudred, father of the Whismur Trio, joined in unexpectedly contributing more damage to Team Rocket's new Hoenn Base. At the end, Loudred got confused and went on a rampage, causing so much damage that the rigidness of the building was reduced to that of a house of cards. A sneeze from Brock's ...

The Pokémon Digital Assistant (P*DA) is the digital organizer used by the protagonists of Pokémon Colosseum and Pokémon XD. Much like the Pokédex, it keeps track of the Pokémon captured and snagged by the user. (As the P*DA's interface serves as these games' menu screens, game data such as money accumulated and time played are also available from the P*DA screen.) By going to the Pre Gym in Phenac City, Strategy Memo information of Pokémon encountered is downloaded to P*DA. The Strategy Memo mode contains information on every Pokémon fought, including type, abilities, ...

In Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, the Pokégear is a general-purpose tool for Pokémon trainers, including the player.

In the video games, Pikachu is a typical low-level Pokémon, usually found around levels 3-6 in Viridian Forest, and around 25 in the Power Plant or Ruby & Sapphire Safari Zone. Players playing Pokémon Yellow have all but no choice whether or not to use it, as it will be their first Pokémon, and in the other games those who find one (typically it's a rather rare find) often use it as a early-to-mid-level Electric Pokémon. Few players use Pikachu in competitive head-to-head play, however, because of its relatively low def ...
