Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire 10th Anniversary - The Skies and The Stars: Wally and Zinnia Analysis

"N-nice to meet you! I'm Wally. My Pokémon and I are always forward together, little by little, day by day!" Wally

"I'm Zinnia—just a traveling Pokémon Trainer, dreaming of taking a little trip into space... Heh." Zinnia

Happy late 10th Anniversary of Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, it only feels like yesterday when I first played ORAS, one of my favorite Pokemon games. ORAS is such a wonderful remake of Ruby and Sapphire. The game also gave us the iconic Delta Episode, the game's adaptation of Emerald. The game also expands on a known character and introduces a brand new character: Wally, a boy who longs for the skies of freedom, and Zinnia, a girl who longs for her destiny in the stars. While their paths intersect once, their paths hold similar motifs.

For two characters who never interacted on-screen (only briefly off-screen), they share a lot in common and they stand out in the remake as ORAS turns 10 years old (God I feel old).

Wally (I thought he was older than he looked, and I still believe that despite what Canon says haha) started as just a simple sick boy who grew to conquer the gyms and nearly take on the Elite Four and Champion. He shows how one can succeed despite the odds stacked against them. He has struggled throughout his entire life. He desires to travel to regions like Unova and become a trainer, yet he has a disease that affects his breathing. Not only that, but his own relatives don't think he's capable of handling things by himself. It's a part of his own motivation to become a trainer: To prove, despite everything, he can be just as much a strong person as any other trainer. He wants to accomplish and fulfill his dreams.

Wally sadly doesn't get a lot of love outside of ORAS; even in the Adventures manga, when he finally gets his moment, it gets undercut. I also think he's best represented by Gardevoir over Gallade.

Zinnia (I see her as half-Hoenn and half-Kalos), the last Lorekeeper of the Draconid people, searches for purpose and finds it in fulfilling a prophecy, not thinking about her own future or her actions. She desperately wants to live up to the legacy of Lorekeeper Aster, who is highly implied to be her mother (and given how Aster was portrayed in Evolutions and yes even Adventures, she's most likely Zinnia's mother), and she makes impulsive decisions with the potential to doom humanity and Pokemon. Her impulsive decisions range from helping Team Magma/Aqua unleash their Legendary to awaken Rayquaza to destroying the rocket component because of the possibility it might warp it to another universe (while we know she's right, the characters have no idea of verifying her claims are true or not). Trying to live up to Aster's legacy gives her a purpose; a destiny. If she can't live up to that and therefore fails her own people, the people and Pokemon of the world...what does she do?

They want to soar above to prove not only to others but to themselves that they're capable and grown. They feel the burden of trying to live up to their own expectations. By the end, the two characters come to their own realization of their futures. Wally realizes he doesn't need to defeat their rival to prove their growth. Zinnia realizes she has to move on and find her reason to live beyond fulfilling a destiny she burdened herself with. The two find ways to live and grow, thanks to Brendan/May. Life is far more than just being a trainer or fulfilling a destiny.

Funnily enough, Wally and Zinnia are connected through Rayquaza in other media. Wally frees Rayquaza on Sky Pillar in the RS Arc of Adventure manga and Zinnia gets to have Rayquaza as her Pokemon partner in Pokemon Masters. They also sadly never appeared in the official anime.

"I bet you must be surprised to see me in a place like this! That promise that we made back then... Thank you for keeping your end of it. It was really all thanks to you that I could make it this far... It was only because I lost to you back then that I could become even stronger. I'm sure you and your Pokémon must have had to overcome a lot, too... To make it all the way here. Right...? Everyone's grown so much... And now we'll get to see just what we can all do. Standing here facing you again gives me chills... ... But I won't give up! I won't lose anymore. My Pokémon have given me the courage and strength to fight. I have to win for their sake! So get ready... Here I come!" Wally on Victory Road before battle

"History had chosen you... The truth remains that Rayquaza chose you and not me... But... While I don't know how to put it into words exactly... I think I understand why... ... You will be successor to our long history now. And I pass to you the final key to Rayquaza's true power. The move that only it can learn: Dragon Ascent... ...That's it, then. I guess... it's time that I do my last task as Lorekeeper. You have obtained Rayquaza's power for your own... Now I will have you prove to me that you can muster that power... in battle! That is my final... The final duty of the last Lorekeeper of the Draconid people! Show me that can exceed it—the entirety of history that we have clung to until today!... My pulse... I can feel it racing... I'm feeling...totally...pumped! Haaahhh! This is it!!" Zinnia on Sky Pillar before battle

The Absolute Atrocious Audacity... of Anipoke's version of the Hoenn Battle Frontier

The Battle Frontier was arguably the first time in a mainline game where we got introduced to Battle Facility Characters. For a while, we had the titular Battle Tower, but for the first time, we had a unique boss to get to.

Much alike to Gym Leaders, they give out "badges" to commemorate your victory; Hoenn's being Silver and Gold Symbols.

However, for the time, many casual players that didn't focus on Competitive Training missed out on these special characters almost entirely. At the very least, they'd see them in Player's Guides along with their Silver and Gold Pokemon Teams.

But especially during that time, most, if not all, knowledge of these characters came from the botched version of them in the Ash Ketchum Anime.

I say botched because it's an honest to goodness fact that man the writers of the anime made some wild decisions.

This will be focusing mostly on Anabel of course, but I've been doing some snooping around the original Battle Frontier and Emerald's in-game text.

I'll go over why Brandon was never supposed to be the "leader" of the Hoenn Frontier, why Anabel was wrongly mistaken as psychic, why the Battle Tower was the real head of the battle frontier, and etc.

1.Who is the leader of the Frontier Brains?

Short answer, no one as far as we know. Long answer is that there are a lot of NPCs that, while making note of all the unique facilities, the Battle Tower is ALWAYS a stand out amongst them all.

When asking a guide about the Battle Tower, you get this dialogue:

"... It is the gigantic tower considered to be the BATTLE FRONTIER's symbol."

A child right outside the Battle Tower itself claims:

"Wow! It's huge! The Battle Tower feels special. It's different from the others."

Also to note that when looking for the Exchange Service and Rankings Building, they will be pointed over as "Near the Battle Tower" .... Which also points to how important the Battle Tower is to the Frontier as a whole.

It's good to note that no other battle facility gets this kind of fanfare. The Tower is uniquely special in its iconography.

... Seeing how both the Adventures Manga and Ihara's Manga puts Anabel as the symbolic 'final boss' of the frontier... It's safe to say that she's at least part of the very foundation and centralized symbol of the Hoenn Battle Frontier.

2.Why was Brandon the leader in the anime?

Chauvinism Brandon is often referred to as Chief... By only his Pyramid employees, and mostly in the vein of his whole gimmick of the Pyramid being an Indiana Jones type of adventure. So Brandon is the Chief of the expedition team that you meet inside the facility itself.

Brandon is never pointed out as anything particularly special or more important than the other facility heads.

He's probably a dev favorite, or for some reason, Anabel wasn't "leader" material for the anime. You know, the brain of the Frontier's central icon and one who became a head Chief/Boss within Interpol many years later.

3.Why was Anabel written to have Psychic Powers?

Oh you're not going to believe this. But I found that there IS an NPC at the Battle Frontier that is Psychic and can read a Pokemon's mind.

AND IT WAS NEVER ANABEL.

There is a little girl that is often cited to appear a lot at Spencer's Battle Palace. Here's her dialogue:

"Ehehe! I can tell what POKÈMON are thinking! Please! Can I see your POKÈMON?" + "That's silly! An EGG is asleep! I can't talk to it!"

Supplementary NPC dialogue:

"How charming! That little lady claims she can understand POKÈMON!" Beyond this, Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald has an unfortunate Psychic Trainer generic NPC that looks like this:

So the anime writers might have put two and two together that someone who is mysterious and has purple hair MUST be a Psychic type specialist.

Otherwise, the only dialogue in relation to Anabel has absolutely zero implications that she is or was ever psychic to begin with. Which takes me to...

4.Did they change Anabel's personality?

YES.

AND IT'S BAD.

First of all, Lucy got it so much worse. NPCs describe her as a "Scary trainer," with a particular incident causing an NPC to retell their bad encounter with her:

"A while back, I met this older girl at the BATTLE PIKE. She had these eyes that were scary in a real ornery way. She got all furious: "Will you quit eating!" Then she whaled on me. It was a hair-raising kind of scary experience, sure enough."

Another NPC, one who deals in rumors, also titles her as the "Scary Trainer of the Battle Pike."

And she is scary! She doesn't hold back! She tells you firmly that she fought her way to her title, and she IS SUPER PISSED that some kid like you just beat her, telling you to just leave her sight already.

Ahem. IN THE ANIME, Lucy's anime counterpart is kinder and friendlier, probably because kids are watching. But all of her sharp edge is just kinda gone. What's worse, she is so commonly known for a gag in which she was the first woman to "reciprocate" Brock's affections.

For a gag. Because she just liked his close eyes look, as her anime counterpart collects squinty eyed Pokemon like Cyndaquil and Skitty.

Also, Brock is 15. Lucy is stated to be an adult woman in Masters, plus she's pretty tall. The anime is known to de-age characters sometimes but... Echk.

Onto Anabel... Oh sweet Anabel-- Just like Lucy, Anabel's edge was dulled into just being some generic sweet girl for her counterpart. As we know in the games, Anabel is not shy to telling you just how she feels about you; she is not impressed by the rumors she has heard of you, and even when you lose to her in the first battle, she will straight up call it 'disappointing.' She expected nothing and was still disappointed.

Here's some NPC dialogue involving Anabel:

Ace Trainer: "Man! Oh man! I've never lost once before! But I got wiped out with no saving grace at all! And then I'm told I don't have any talent?! Man!" NPC next to Ace Trainer: "This guy ran into a horribly tough TRAINER while he was on the BATTLE TOWER challenge. Now look at him... You need to be cautious if you ever decide to go to the BATTLE TOWER."

Also, Anabel apparently is said that when she's using a fucking Snorlax, Alakazam, and Entei on you, she's trying to "measure up her opponent." When she's serious, she uses Raikou, Snorlax, and Latios.

SHE'S USING AN ENTEI TO MEASURE YOU UP BEFORE BRINGING OUT BIGGER GUNS???

... Anabel in the anime was a joke. Her counterpart was made a glorified psychic type gym leader with none of the very sharp personality she had before. Perhaps kids would have hated a girl who shot down Ash the moment he stepped into her tower. Honestly she could have given him the same treatment Nanu did MAAAAANY seasons later.

But no. Had to be sweet and kind. And had to have a Metagross that dies to a Tauros using Take Down and she also was given an Espeon to replace Snorlax? An Espeon which was just "girly version of Ash's Pikachu" because it had Zap Cannon, Iron Tail, and Quick Attack WHICH IS SUCH A BAD MOVEPOOL FOR ESPEON GOOD LORD.

And of course, the elephant in the room that this version of Anabel's only fucking thing that people remember is that she had a crush on Ash. Why? Because May was being rewritten to have a thing with Drew so Ash needed a "romance"(?) for some reason. Not like it even went anywhere or was ever needed? They had no romantic interactions and it was basically a last minute reveal that she gained feelings for him just out of nowhere. Ultimately, Anabel never came back, and this entire point was practically retconned or erased from existence as OTHER girls later down the line would fill the "romantic undertones" role for the season/series, each one making the former fucking meaningless.

Plus, Anabel and Lucy in Emerald are both referred to as "Older Girls", possibly a localization of "Oneesan", with Anabel being a bit taller than May and Brendan in Emerald, so her original appearance was most likely at the very least a teenager older than the protags? Not that it's TOO bad echk but... CHRIST. WHAT WAS THE POINT? WHY???

The only point for Lucy and Anabel to have pointless crushes and character changes to be appealing and sweet and kind is because "Boys only like girls who are cute and like them and aren't combative."

let's be fucking REAL HERE THIS IS ALSO WHY ANABEL WASN'T THE LEADER OF THE BRAINS and she never kept her original pokemon and ARGH. THAT ISN'T ANABEL THAT'S JUST A SKIN WALKER.

salt over im so angry good lord. People thought this was Anabel for YEARS. Can you believe it??

Whew this was a long one.

5.Why was the Hoenn Battle Frontier in Kanto?

Firered and Leafgreen promotion :'y Had to be made a Kanto thing to "mix the elements" of FRGL and Emerald. This was hilariously walked back on when Ash revisited the Frontier in Journeys... Now exactly in Hoenn and appearing exactly as it did in the games with none of the frontier brains actually appearing.

You can tell they totally have no regrets about doing it the other way. :))))

6.Why did Anipoke do so many changes?

Not out of malicious intent.

The pokemon anime was always primarily made for kids. It's going to have cheerful adventures, and I can see why perhaps Lucy shouldn't be a scary woman on screen or why an adult like Brandon would be easier to see as the "big leader" of the brains due to being an older man.

Lots of decisions were made with kids in mind... Anabel's competitive and strategic nature would never have been as showy as "heehoo Brandon has THREE LEGENDARIES that means he's the strongest!"

Due to mostly boys watching Pokemon.... Girls got a really bad hand. Girls were apparently written to be changed with each new game series and are probably most remembered by being love interests. This is why no one talks about Greta-- She didn't have a romance. She wasn't tugging at the growing mind's "maybe girls aren't so icky" brain cells, idk.

And frankly, the Battle Frontier would just be boring otherwise, I guess. It's very much an older kid/adult set of facilities for advanced players, and Ash Ketchum is not an advanced player.

He is the representation of the little casual kid who believes in the power of friendship. He's not going to use competitively viable Pokemon he's going to use his iconic starters that sometimes don't evolve because they're cute and have a lot of character as their smaller forms. He's not going to climb a tower of high level trainers nor understand what EVs and IVs are. Hell he usually loses championships because he needs to be moved to the next region to start anew all over again.

So... They wrote the Battle Frontier as just. A glorified Kanto Gym Challenge, as they have done. They looked at the characters and their Pokemon and wrote alternate versions of them all to fit a series that is very kid oriented.

Things needed to make sense for kids. Older adult guys are the leaders, girls get crushes on boys, and Pokemon isn't about competitive play but the power of friendship to overcome all odds.

And unfortunately, because so many players were young and didn't get competitive battling, that was the only thing Anabel and the Frontier Brains were known for. Not their original games; but the heavily revised versions made because they needed to fit a children's TV show.

#/VERGO'S LONG ASS RANT #/it's such a travesty that i genuinely don't think these versions even apply anymore since they're so long ago and so retconned #/they never really were brought up all that much ever again really #/And whenever someone says 'Masters Anabel should have an Espeon' this is why I fucking seeth lmao

A weirdly reoccurring problem I have whenever I post a picture of my Pokémon team from any game and it happens to have one of these four Pokémon in it, (Emolga on my White and X teams, Plusle in my Sapphire and Alpha Sapphire teams, Minun in my Omega Ruby team, Pachirisu in my Platinum and Shining Pearl team) every single time without fail someone tells me I should replace it with Manectric, Luxray, Zebstrika, or whatever happens to be the strongest Electric Type in that game.

And every single time I'm like "What? No????? Why would I do that???? I love them, that's why I'm using one????"

Is it because the Pikachu clones are seen as bad or weak Pokémon? Do you not remember the iconic "Strong Pokémon. Weak Pokémon. That is only the selfish perception of people. Truly skilled trainers should try to win with their favourites" quote?

If you can't beat Cynthia with a Pachirisu like I did then that sounds more like a you problem tbh

This is a .txt log describing debugging the English localized version of Ruby and Sapphire! I love digging up things like this it feels like I'm a digital archeologist. The translations are probably not 100% accurate but I'm trying my best! It's so cool to see what they were going through while developing the game.

●ローカライズ作業のスケジュールについて ●About localization work schedule

　・北米版は６月終了を目処。こちらは余裕があるが、　　欧州版は商戦時期を考えると９月。こちらが大変で、　　北米版とほぼ同時進行にしないと厳しい。・The North American version is scheduled to be completed in June. we have some leeway there, but The European version will be completed in September. Considering the sales season, This is difficult. we will have to proceed simultaneously with the North American version.

　・欧州ではウムラウト文字が縦長になる、　　英語圏では小文字などが下ラインに揃わないものがあるなど、　　レイアウト上の問題が起こりそう。・In Europe, umlaut characters are vertically elongated, In English-speaking countries, there are cases where lowercase letters are not aligned with the bottom line, etc. There seems to be a layout problem.

●ルビー・サファイアローカライズで問題になった点＆今後考慮して欲しい要望 ●Problems with Ruby/Sapphire localization and requests to be considered in the future

＜仕様＞ <Specifications>

　・メニュー選択等のウィンドウで、ＢＧで描画しているカーソルを、レイアウトの都合上、ＯＢＪで描いた枠線にに差し替えることがある。この時、ＯＢＪ用のパレットは何処を使って良いかが解らなかったので、ＯＢＪパレットを１本開けておいて欲しい。　　※現在はパレット管理システム側でＯＢＪ１５パレットを��制転送停止している→デバッグの必要あり・In menu selection windows, the cursor drawn in the background may be replaced with a frame drawn in OBJ for layout reasons. At this time, I didn't know which palette to use for OBJ, so I would like you to open one of the OBJ palettes. *Currently, the palette management system is forcibly stopping the transfer of OBJ15 pallets → Debugging is required.

　・ヌケニンに名前が直接格納されてしまう仕様バグ　（ＵＳ国籍のツチニンを日本語版で進化させる→ＵＳ国籍の“ヌケニン”が出来る。　　これを再度ＵＳ版に戻すとＵＳ国籍のためＵＳフォントで表示しようとし、うまく表示できない） A bug where the name was stored directly in the Shedinja (If you evolve a US nationality Nincada in the Japanese version → you will create a US nationality Shedinja. If you change this back to the US version, it will try to display it in US fonts due to its US nationality, and it will not display properly)

＜レイアウト＞ <Layout>

　・アイテム名、ポケモン名等のレイアウト調整　（今回もポケモンリスト画面などが大変そう。ポケモンアイコンを左にずらすか、ＨＰバーを削るなどの措置が必要か） Adjusting the layout of item names, pokemon names, etc. (The pokemon list screen seems to be a big problem this time too. Will measures such as shifting the pokemon icon to the left or reducing the HP bar be necessary?)

＜プログラム＞ <Program>

　・トレーナーの性別や、ポケモン・トレーナー数が複数・単数かで翻訳内容が違う。　　これに対応できる仕組みがあれば助かる。　　※データ作成にも関連 Translation content differs depending on the gender of the trainer and whether the number of pokemon and trainers is multiple or singular. It would be helpful if there were a system to handle this *Also related to data creation

　・文字列の合成をプログラムで行っている個所を極力、減らして欲しい。　（翻訳者，プログラマ双方の仕事が発生し、さらに意思の疎通を考慮する必要が　　あるため、非常に効率が悪い。翻訳者が、文字列を見て作業するだけで良いという環境が望ましい。）　　※企画にも関連 I would like you to reduce the number of parts where strings are synthesized in the program as much as possible. (This requires work for both translators and programmers, and it is also necessary to consider communication. Because of this, it is extremely inefficient. it would be easier to just have the translators look at the strings and do their work. ) *Also related to planning

　・テキストモジュール，プログラムモジュールを完全分離して欲しい（テキスト分の容量がわかれば、最終的な容量の見通しが立てやすい）・I want the text module and program module to be completely separated. (If you know the size for text, it will be easier to predict the final size)

　・デバッグメニューも翻訳される。できるだけ分離し、１つのモジュールにまとめたい。・The debug menu will be translated too. I want to separate them as much as possible and combine them into one module.

　・プログラムで参照されていない文字列等が最後までソースに残っている場合があり、　　紛らわしい。不要なら削除して欲しい。 - Strings that are not referenced in the program may remain in the source until the end. It's confusing. Please delete it if it is unnecessary.

●プログラム・環境改善案 ●Program/environmental improvement plan

　・関数の引数や内部変数は、u8,u16よりintの方が処理効率が良い　　（どうせスタックは32bitずつ使用されることになるので）・For function arguments and internal variables, int is more efficient than u8, u16. (Since the stack will use 32 bits at a time anyway)

　・デバッグ情報をＰＣに保存できる方法があるので利用出来る箇所があれば検討。・There is a way to save debugging information on your PC, so consider using it if you are able to.

The Evolution of Rare Pokémon Booster Boxe

Explore the fascinating evolution of rare Pokémon booster boxes, from their early days to today’s coveted collectibles. This journey reveals how design changes, special releases, and growing collector interest have transformed these boxes into valuable treasures. Discover the history behind iconic releases, the impact of limited editions, and how these evolving elements have shaped the Pokémon booster box market and collector culture.

Early Days of Pokémon Booster Boxes A Focus on Rare Pokémon Booster Box

In the early years of Rare Pokémon Booster Box trading card games, booster boxes were a novel concept, aimed at giving players a chance to build their collections and discover rare Pokémon cards. These initial booster boxes contained a mix of common, uncommon, and rare Pokémon cards, but the rarity of individual cards was still relatively modest. The focus was on introducing the game to a wider audience, with booster boxes providing a balanced assortment of cards for players to enjoy. Rare Pokémon cards were present, but they were not the primary draw, as the game was still establishing its place in the market.

The Rise of Limited Edition Rare Pokémon Booster Boxes

As the Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG) gained popularity, the introduction of limited edition booster boxes marked a significant evolution in the market. These rare Pokémon booster boxes often featured special sets or promotional cards that were not available in standard releases. Limited editions, such as the "Black Star Promo" series, created a buzz among collectors and players alike. The scarcity of these boxes drove up demand and set the stage for a new era where rare Pokémon cards became more coveted and sought after, with some limited edition boxes becoming highly valuable collector’s items.

The Introduction of Vintage Rare Pokémon Booster Boxes

The concept of vintage rare Pokémon booster boxes emerged as early sets like the Base Set and Jungle Set became iconic. These boxes, containing first-generation cards, have since become highly sought after by collectors. Vintage rare Pokémon booster boxes are distinguished by their historical significance and the nostalgic value of the cards within. As the game evolved, these early booster boxes became valuable relics, with some fetching high prices in the secondary market. Collectors prize them not only for the rare cards they contain but also for their role in the game’s history.

The Impact of Expansion Sets on Rare Pokémon Booster Boxes

With the expansion of the Pokémon TCG, booster boxes began to feature a wider variety of rare Pokémon cards. Each new set introduced unique cards and mechanics, adding to the allure of rare Pokémon booster boxes. Expansion sets like Neo Genesis and "Ruby & Sapphire" brought new Pokémon into the spotlight and introduced more rare and powerful cards. The increasing complexity and depth of each set enhanced the value of booster boxes, making them a desirable target for both competitive players and collectors looking to obtain rare Pokémon cards and complete their collections.

The Role of High-End Collectors’ Editions in Rare Pokémon Booster Boxes

The evolution of rare Pokémon booster boxes saw the rise of high-end collectors’ editions, which included premium features and exclusive content. Boxes like the "Shining Legends Elite Trainer Box" and "Hidden Fates Elite Trainer Box" offered collectors a chance to obtain rare Pokémon cards with special foil treatments and unique packaging. These high-end editions often came with additional collectibles, such as promo cards, playmats, and other merchandise. The added value and exclusivity of these boxes made them highly coveted among serious collectors, further driving the demand for rare Pokémon booster boxes.

The Influence of Market Trends on Rare Pokémon Booster Boxes

Market trends have significantly impacted the evolution of rare Pokémon booster boxes. As Pokémon nostalgia surged and the TCG market experienced growth, rare Pokémon booster boxes became more valuable. Influences such as high-profile card sales, media exposure, and competitive play contributed to the rising prices and demand for rare Pokémon cards. The secondary market saw a boom in the trading of rare booster boxes, with some fetching astronomical prices due to their rarity and the allure of obtaining sought-after cards. These market trends have shaped the way rare Pokémon booster boxes are perceived and valued.

Future Prospects for Rare Pokémon Booster Boxes

Looking ahead, the future of rare Pokémon booster boxes is poised for continued evolution. As new generations of Pokémon are introduced and the TCG market continues to grow, booster boxes will likely feature even more rare and unique cards. Advances in printing technology and innovative card designs may also influence the rarity and desirability of future booster boxes. Collectors and players will continue to seek out rare Pokémon booster boxes for their value, exclusivity, and the thrill of discovering new and rare cards. The ongoing evolution of the Pokémon TCG ensures that rare booster boxes will remain a dynamic and exciting aspect of the game’s collecting culture.

Conclusion

The evolution of rare Pokémon booster boxes reflects the growing passion and complexity of the Pokémon collecting world. From their early, limited releases to today's highly sought-after and valuable finds, these boxes have become prized treasures for collectors and investors alike. As the market continues to evolve, the allure and significance of rare Pokémon booster boxes will likely only increase, solidifying their place in Pokémon history.
