Pokemon of the Week (POTW)

POTW: Gameplayers (Issue #28)
  • Welcome to Gameplayers! My name is Unovia, and it is great to have you here. This week, we are here to cover Applin and its branched evolution. Applin and its evolutions were introduced in Galar. Applin has many locations, but its main one outside the Wild Area is Route 5. Its Tart Apple counterpart is Flapple, who has multiple occasions in the Wild Area, while its Sweet Apple counterpart is Appletun, who also has multiple occasions in the Wild Area.

    Moving to the Cards, Applin has had 3 Cards since being introduced in the Rebel Clash expansion. Flapple has had 5 Cards, and Appletun has had 3 Cards. That is it for this week!

    Article #54-The Bonds of Friendship
  • Hello trainers! It’s your girl Amy, here in Kalos, specifically Laverre City at the Pokemon Fan Club for Friendship Day. Friendship Day celebrates the bonds of friendship between trainers and Pokemon. There are Fan Clubs all throughout the Pokemon World. There are three Pokemon that exemplify friendship. These are Espeon, Umbreon, and Sylveon. Those three are the Eeveelutions that evolve via Friendship, perfect for this day.

    Coming into the Fan Club, I am met by the President of the Fan Club, who, after I explain why I am here, she offers to battle me. If I win, I will get an Eevee egg and a Soothe Bell. Soothe Bells help increase the friendship of Pokemon, some of which need Friendship to evolve. She is dressed in a Kimono, similar to the Kimono Girls of Ecruteak City.

    Ushering me to the battlefield, she demonstrates that she has 3 Pokemon and lets me set up my team of 3. The Pokemon I picked were Aromatisse, Empoleon, and Alcremie. Once I had set up my team, we looked at each other, ready to battle.

    She opened with Umbreon, and I opened with Alcremie. Umbreon opened with Dark Pulse, and Alcremie took a little bit of damage. Alcremie struck back with Draining Kiss, recovering some HP. Even so, Umbreon survived, using Moonlight to heal. Alcremie used Dazzling Gleam, ending that fight. I was allowed to take a moment to record the stats of the Eeveelution.

    Upon getting the stats, we continued the fight. She sent out Espeon, and I changed to Aromatisse. It became a battle of the Psychic attacks. Aromatisse used Moonblast and Espeon used Swift, causing a bit of an explosion. One more Moon Blast ended the fight. I recorded the stats of the Eeveelution.

    In the final round, she sent out Sylveon and I sent out Empoleon. She told me that her Sylveon was her most affectionate and her first Pokemon, just like Empoleon is for me. This meant it would be a battle of first Pokemon. Sylveon used Moonblast, which Empoleon blocked. Getting close, Empoleon used Drill Peck to get close and then with Sylveon up in the air, Empoleon used Metal Claw, making Sylveon faint, winning the match. I then recorded Sylveon’s stats.

    Being the winner, I got an Eevee egg and the Soothe Bell as promised. I wonder what the Eevee will evolve to? Hopefully Sylveon, as it is the most adorable of the three Eeveelutions. I have decided to stay with the Fan Club for a bit. This is Amy, signing off, and Happy Friendship Day!
     
    POTW: Gameplayers (Issue #29
  • Welcome to Gameplayers! My name is Unovia, and it is great to have you here! This week, we are discussing three of the Eeveelutions, the ones that involve Friendship, those being Umbreon, Espeon, & Sylveon. Umbreon and Espeon were both introduced in the Johto games of Gold, Silver, & Crystal. Umbreon evolved from Eevee using Max Friendship during the night, and Espeon during the day. Umbreon & Espeon are not catchable until the Alola games of Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, & Ultra Moon, where Umbreon is catchable on Route 4 and Route 6 at night while Espeon is catchable in the same locations during the day. During Sword & Shield, Umbreon is catchable at Lake of Outrage, Giant’s Mirror, & Giant’s Bed, while Espeon is catchable at Lake of Outrage, Hammerlocke Hills, & Giant’s Bed.

    Moving to Sylveon, it was not available until the Kalos games of X & Y, being part of the new (at the time) Fairy Type. Sylveon is first available in the wild in Sword & Shield, being catchable in Lake of Outrage & Giant’s Bed.

    Now shifting to the Cards, Umbreon and Espeon both debuted in the Neo Discovery Expansion, with Umbreon having 23 Cards & Espeon having 24 Cards. Sylveon has 9 Cards, having debuted in the X & Y Black Star Promos. That’s it for this week! We will see you next week!

    Article #55-Glameow, the Glamorous Kitty of Sinnoh
  • Greetings Trainers!
    It’s your girl, Amy, here in Sinnoh for International Cat Day! Today, we are in Jubilife City, the largest city in Sinnoh. If we move to the west, across Route 218, we will be able to catch the Pokemon for this week, Glameow. Route 218 is between Jubilife City & Canalave City. It's a water Route as well, so thank goodness I have my Empoleon. I also have my Aromatisse to attract the Glameow.

    Getting to the other side, I use Aromatisse to attract Glameow. Instead what happens is a group of Glameow, with a large Purugly, clearly the mother cat, appears. Glameow is known to be spiteful & fickle, while Purugly can be intimidating. Purugly is glaring at me, wanting me to leave her Glameows alone, then it left, with all of its Glameow, except one following behind. The Glameow, clearly not too old, is still attracted by Aromatisse. While it was distracted, I used a single Pokeball to capture it. I recorded the stats of both it and the mother Purugly, who sat and watched me capture one of her young.

    The mother Purugly, seeing its young gone, gave me one mean glare and walked away, its huge body and long tail swaying back and forth.That Purugly was mean, yet dismissive, potentially showing the future that my Glameow might show. Glameow can also use its tail as a dancing ribbon, making it a good Pokemon for Pokemon Contests, which are common in Sinnoh.

    This is Amy with my new glamorous Glameow, ready to sign off for the week. Until next week, we are signing off. See you next week!
     
    POTW: Gameplayers (Issue #30)
  • Welcome to Gameplayers! My name is Unovia, and it is great to have you here! This week, we are covering Glameow & Purugly, the cats of Sinnoh. Both Glameow & Purugly were introduced in Diamond, Pearl, & Platinum, though they were only available in Pearl, catchable on Routes 218, 222 and 229. Glameow is catchable in the Hidden Grottos in Unova, while both are catchable in the Mirage Forests in Gen 6 Hoenn.

    With the Cards, both Glameow & Purugly were introduced in the Diamond & Pearl Expansion, and they both had 7 Cards. That’s it for this week!
     
    POTW: Shows & Reads (Issue #28)
  • Welcome to Shows & Reads. My name is Unovia, and it is great to have you here! This week, we are covering Glameow & Purugly, the cats of Sinnoh. Beginning with the anime, Glameow has two major appearances.These are both associated with the female protagonist, Dawn. These associations are Johanna, her mother who was once a Top Coordinator, and Zoey, Dawn’s rival and friend. Purugly, by contrast, was introduced as the main Pokemon of Mars, one of the Commanders of Team Galactic.

    In the Manga, Glameow shows up as part of Johanna’s team, who was the mother of the Protagonist Diamond, while Purugly appears with Mars, as n the anime and games. That is it for this week. See you next week!
     
    Article #56-Relaxing With Munchlax & Snorlax
  • Greetings trainers!
    It’s your girl, Amy, still here in Sinnoh, and on Route 218, camping under a tree. This week, we are celebrating Relaxation Day. What is the most relaxed Pokemon? Why it’s Snorlax and by extension its pre evolution Munchlax. I am situated under a Honey Tree, known for potentially attracting a Munchlax.I have several jars of Honey and a paintbrush, so I am going to see if I can attract a Munchlax to my campsite.To add a little bit of interest, I have my Aromatisse out to draw Munchlax out. Munchlax is known as hyperactive, and often hides food in its fur. It is forgetful, however, and as a result, will eat moldy food, same as the evolution, Snorlax.

    = Several Hours later ==
    I have been checking the tree, and so far, nothing. Wait, what is that? (Rustling sounds can be heard) A Pokemon has left the brush and is climbing the tree! What Pokemon is it? Let me get my flashlight. It's Munchlax! We got its interest! It doesn’t want to fight, its only objective is the honey. Let me throw a Great Ball and see. (Throws a Great Ball, which captures Munchlax)

    Woohoo! I caught it! Let me record its stats:

    What is going on? (Munchlax comes out of the Ball, then searches through my bag, eating all of the honey. It also finds a Soothe Bell, wearing it. Munchlax rests, then unexpectedly evolves) My Munchlax is evolving into Snorlax! That was very fast!

    As I grab the Great Ball and return my now Snorlax, I think about my luck. I easily attracted a Munchlax then after it binged, it quickly became a Snorlax. That is a lot of excitement for one day, and I am tired. I think I am going to relax with my new Snorlax this week. This is Amy, signing off for this week.
     
    POTW: Gameplayers (Issue #31)
  • Welcome to Gameplayers! My name is Unovia, and it is great to have you here! This week, we are covering Munchlax & its evolution, Snorlax. Let’s start with Snorlax, who existed for a significant time before Munchlax. Snorlax is introduced in Kanto as a roadblock, catchable on Routes 12 & 16, following waking it using Poke Flute. In Johto, Snorlax is caught near Vermillion City. Snorlax is in the same location in Kanto for Generation III. In Generation 4 Johto, Snorlax is catchable on Route 11. In Kalos, Snorlax is catchable on Route 7, once again as part of a roadblock requiring a Pokeflute. In Alola, Snorlax is an SOS discovery on Route 1. In LGPE, Snorlax has 3 locations, Route 12, 16, & Cerulean Cave. Finally in Galar, Snorlax is a wanderer in a few locations.

    Munchlax is introduced in Diamond, Pearl, & Platinum as a random catchable Pokemon under the Honey Tree Phenomenon. Munchlax is not available in the wild again until Alola, where it can be captured on Route 1. Finally in Galar, it is found at Motostoke Riverbank, Bridge Field, Stony Wilderness, & Ballmere Lake.

    In the Cards, Snorlax has 31 Cards since being released in the Jungle Expansion, while Munchlax has had 9 Cards since being released as part of Splitting Deoxys. That’s it for this week!
     
    POTW: Shows & Reads (Issue #29)
  • Welcome to Shows & Reads! My name is Unovia, and it is great to have you here! This week, we are covering Snorlax & Munchlax, so lets get started. In the Anime, the most famous Snorlax is with Ash, which he caught in the Orange Islands. This thing has been a monster on the battlefield, winning Ash many battles. As far as Munchlax, the most famous one belongs to May, which she caught in Hoenn due to the fact that it liked her Pokeblocks. It has been a wildcard in her team.

    In the Manga, the most famous Snorlax belongs to Red, who is one of the strongest members of his team. The protagonist Diamond has a Munchlax named Lax. Lax shows considerable stabina and durability, as well as living up to its species tendency to hide berries in the fur. That’s it for this week!
     
    Article #57-The Angel Pokemon, Togepi
  • Greetings trainers! It’s your girl, Amy, here in Eterna City, Sinnoh this week. Why am I here? There are two reasons. First, its to celebrate Be An Angel Day, and secondly, I recently heard a rumor that Cynthia isin town to investigate the Sinnoh Legendaries Palkia & Dialga. Rumors also state that, if you are lucky, she will give you a Togepi egg, which hopefully we will receive. Considering that Cynthia is the Sinnoh Region Champion, she is a well traveled person who has seen a lot and is also a tough challenge to take on. I intend to battle her for a chance to get a Togepi egg.

    Togepi is known as a bringer of joy and friendship, collecting and sharing the joy around it to those who need it. If it is taken care of by kind people, it evolves into Togetic, and then, should the person have a Shiny Stone, they can evolve it to a Togekiss. Togekiss are super rare, only known to be owned by dedicated and kind trainers. Apparently, if Cynthia can give out Togepi eggs, she has a Togekiss, demonstrating her dedication to Pokemon.

    Making the trek to the hill where the Legendary Statue is, I see a woman in a black coat who has blonde hair. She must be Cynthia. Dan told me that he met her back when he was investigating the Solaceon Ruins. That was quite a while ago, and he never battled her. He also told me she is a nice woman. As I climb the hill, a sudden wind picks up, almost as though the area itself knows how powerful she is. Clearing my throat, a little bit of timidity in my voice, I ask, “Hello. Are you Cynthia, Champion of Sinnoh?” The woman turns around, her grey eyes being striking. Dan was right, she is intimidating. Swallowing hard, I challenge her to a battle, to which she asks for the stakes. I reply:

    1. If I win, you give me a Togepi Egg and recognize me as an equal to you.
    2. Even if I lose, you give me the Togepi Egg, since that is what I am here for.

    Cynthia smiles, looking down at me. She then accepts the fight, but warns how strong she really is. With no hesitation, we go to square off at the Eterna City Pokemon Center. When people see Cynthia, a crowd forms to watch the battle. Steeling my determination, I prepare my team for the tough challenge ahead. The referee, Nurse Joy, states the rules.

    1. The battle will be a full 6 on 6 Battle.
    2. The winner will be the one who has a Pokemon left standing.
    3. The prize is a Togepi Egg, a rare egg.

    RoseradeEevee (Sylveon)
    TogekissEiscue
    LucarioLapras
    MiloticEmpoleon
    GarchompRoserade

    Cynthia opens with Spiritomb, a Ghost and Dark Type, while I open with Aromatisse, a Fairy Type. A single Moon Blast takes out Spiritomb. Unfazed, she sends out Roserade. A back and forth ensues, with Aromatisse using Psychic and Roserade using Sludge Bomb, a double KO. She sends out Togekiss and I bring out Eevee. My Eevee evolves quickly into Sylveon, despite only being with me a short while. Maybe the intensity of the battle excited her. Cynthia is still unfazed, and she may even be impressed with me. It is hard to say. The two Pokemon go back and forth, but her Togekiss eventually outclasses Sylveon, taking it out with an Aura Sphere. I brought out Eiscue, a Pokemon she had not seen before. The battle was a quick double KO. She sent out Lucario and I sent out Laras. Lucario was wicked fast, very quickly outspeeding Lapras, taking it out with Aura Sphere. Seemed like Cynthia was getting into her own. I sent out Empoleon, and the two Pokemon matched up nicely, with Empoleon being able to shield itself from Lucario. Empoleon eventually took Lucario out. To counter Empoleon, she sent out Milotic, who eventually wrapped itself around Empoleon like a dainty snake. Empoleon was very weak after the Lucario battle, and the stress of fighting to get out wore it out, allowing Milotic to win. Down to my last Pokemon, I send out Roserade. Roserade eventually beats down Milotic. Cynthia, not even challenged at this point, brings out Garchomp. Cynthia smiles, seemingly knowing something I don’t. A quick Brick Break takes out Roserade, making Cynthia the winner. I collapse on my knees, shocked at my loss.

    Cynthia, being the winner yet kind, gives me a Togepi Egg, a Shiny Stone for when it is ready, and gives me the data for all 3 stages.

    POTW: Gameplayers (Issue #32)
  • Welcome to Gameplayers! My name is Unovia, and it is great to have you here! This week, we are covering the Togepi family. Togepi has, by far, the most availability of any Baby Pokemon, being obtainable first from Professor Elm’s assistant, then from an Egg in the Water Labyrinth in the Sevii Islands, then in Route 230 or from Cynthia in Sinnoh, White Forest or from Curtis or Yancy in Unova, Lavaridge Town in Gen 6 Hoenn, and a trade for a Toxel in Hammerlocke or catchable in Bridge Field, Hammerlocke Hills, Lake of Outrage, or Rolling Fields in Galar.

    Togetic is not catchable in the wild until Galar, catchable in Stony Wildnerness, Bridge Field, Hammerlocke Hills, Lake of Outrage, or Rolling Fields.Togekiss is first catchable in the wild at Poni Gauntlet in Alola, then at Dusty Bowl, Bridge Field, Hammerlocke Hills, Lake of Outrage, or Rolling Fields.

    Moving to the Cards, Togepi has had 16 Cards since the Neo Genesis expansion, Togetic has had 11 Cards since Neo Genesis, and Togekiss has had 10 Cards since the Great Encounters Expansion. That’s it for this week!
     
    POTW: Shows & Reads (Issue #30)
  • Welcome to Shows & Reads! My name is Unovia, and it is great to have you here! This week, we are covering the Togepi family. In the Anime, Togepi has been mostly famous because of its association with Misty. It was first found in Episode 46, where it was found by Ash. When it hatched, it assumed Misty was its mother. After journeying through Kanto & Johto, it eventually evolved into a Togetic to protect the Togepi Paradise. Togekiss became part of Dawn’s team, the protagonist of the Diamond & Pearl Series. It became the “mother Pokemon” of the group, helping to settle arguments. In the Manga, the most famous Togepi is from Gold, who raised it from a Togepi all the way to a Togekiss. While Togepi and Family are known typically as gentle and peaceful Pokemon, Gold has one that is naughty and stubborn, character traits that are not characteristic at all of the species, implying that trainer environment may influence their behavior. That’s it for this week. We will see you next week!
     
    Article #58-Night Of The Bats
  • Good Evening Trainers! It’s C. J. and Alan, along with Manny and Vance. We are in Kalos this week to celebrate bats, the quintessential nocturnal creature. There are 4 Bat species in the Pokemon World. These are Zubat, Gligar, Woobat, & Noibat. We will work to capture the four species.

    = C. J. =
    Hi Trainers! This is C. J., and I am heading to Connecting Cave, just east of Cyllage City. This cave is also known by the locals as Zubat Roost. It is filled with Zubat, who are said to hang from the roof of the cave. Having neither eyes nor nostrils, Zubat does its hunting using echolocation, or sound waves, to sense direction. Looking up, I see a horde of Zubat, and I am worried to catch one, waking up the others. (Tosses a Luxury Ball up in the air, catching Zubat. The Pokeball drops, hitting the surface of the cave ground, waking up the other Zubats) Oh goodness! I have to run! Thank goodness I got my Zubat! Hope that Alan did better than I did! Hopefully I can train it up, get it to a Golbat, and eventually a Crobat. The good thing is, I have a Soothe Bell. How is Alan doing? Here are the stats:

Better be careful with its scorpion tail! (Gligar flies toward Alan, and he quickly catches it. As he goes to pick up the ball, he sees a Fang) Oh wow! I think this is a Razor Fang, which is usable to make it evolve to a Gliscor at night. I will make it into a necklace and put it around my neck so I am able to evolve it when both Gligar and I are ready. Here are the stats:

    Hi Trainers! I am near Reflecting Cave, looking for Woobat. I am wearing a helmet, mainly because Woobat are known for dropping from the ceiling in the cave. Reflection Cave has many reflective surfaces, hence the name. Maybe I can use some of the shine from a reflective surface to avoid the scary drops. Let’s go in!

    Looking up at the roof of the cave, using the headlamp of my helmet, I saw a cloud of Woobat. Oh here we go! They are chasing me, and hopefully I will be able to get a good luck capture so I can escape! (Throws a Luxury ball into the cloud, which captures one) Sweet! Let’s escape quickly going back where we came! Woobat needs high friendship to evolve, so it is a good thing I have a Soothe Bell to raise it. Here are Woobat’s stats:

This area is also the rumored home of Zygarde. Being so late in their journey, Noibat is high level, close to its evolution of Noivern. Here it goes, in and out in short order.

    Ok, so all of us have met up in a camp, and I think it is time for us to compare the bats (They all release their bats. Zubat is now a Golbat, Gligar is now a Gliscor, Woobat is now a Swoobat, and Noibat is now a Noivern. During the comparison, Golbat quickly evolves into Crobat). Here are all of their stats.

    Article #59-Running Out Of Time With Dialga

    Greetings Trainers! This is Travelin’ Dan, here at Mt. Coronet to celebrate Running Late For Something Day. This week, we are discussing Dialga, the Temporal Pokemon. Now, we are not able to actually see Dialga, so we decided to see if we could find Spear Pillar, where Sinnoh is supposed to have begun. Wait...What is this? It’s a flower that seems to be made from glass. It seems like this has some connection to Dialga, considering it is near the Spear Pillar. I am going to go to the Eterna City Museum where there is currently the Adamant Orb on display, which is connected to Dialga.

    = Eterna City =
    With the mysterious flower in a glass jar, I headed to the Eterna City Museum. There it is! The Adamant Orb! Look at this! The flower is reacting to it! Wait! What is happening? The Adamant Orb and Time Flower are reacting! (A Portal opens, taking Dan through)

    = Temporal World =
    (Dan arrives in a sapphire blue world, surrounded by crystals. He is floating)
    Where am I? I am in a strange place. Why am I here? Who or what brought me here? (He sees a shadow) Is that...Dialga? Dialga is the master of Time. (Dialga appears in front of him) Dialga! Let me go home! I don’t mean to be here, in your land. (Dialga roars, its eyes flashing, and Dan departs)

    = Eterna City Pokemon Center =
    Oh my goodness! I am back home, though in a Pokemon Center. The Adamant Orb and that mysterious flower have disappeared, but at least I am safe. I am exhausted considering what happened to me. (Dan looks out the window, seeing the statue of the Legendary Pokemon)

    I can’t believe I met Dialga! Hopefully, I won’t be too late to file this report! Until next week, this is Travelin’ Dan, signing off!
