Char Clone was disambiguated due to cleanup.


* CharClone: Galarian Articuno's facial feathers/skin form a mask-like structure not too dissimilar to one of these. Furthermore, it being a Psychic-type is a reference to Char Aznable himself being a Newtype, who have PsychicPowers.

Magikarp is infamous for being completely useless, so many don't bother to use it. Many others ''do'' bother, though, because it evolves into Gyarados, a notably powerful Pokémon. Patience really does pay off. With an awesome Attack stat, Intimidate, powerful physical STAB, respectable speed, good Special Defense, and a solid movepool, Gyarados is perfectly capable of wrecking ''anything'' in its way. Electric-type attacks are your best bet to take down this leviathan. Gyarados is capable of Mega Evolving in ''X and Y'', where it swaps its Flying typing for a Dark typing. Truly terrifying.

** In a similar case to Charizard, despite being based on a Chinese dragon and being in the Dragon egg group, Gyarados is not Dragon-Type, since the Dragon-Type was restricted to the [[InfinityMinusOneSword Dratini line]]. Despite the type having become more widely distributed since then, Gyarados wasn't retconned to be part-Dragon, nor did it gain the type for its Mega Evolution. However, Gyarados is still freely referred to and treated as a dragon in official material just like Charizard.

* AxCrazy: Infamous for flying into destructive rages at the drop of a hat that result in the destruction of entire ''cities''. Mega Gyarados' ''only'' instinct is to kill and destroy everyone and everything. Downplayed in that careful reading of its dex entries (especially the one in ''Legends Arceus'') indicate this city-destroying reputation is based on a ancient event recorded in old literature where what is believed to have been a Gyarados (the record itself only refers to the creature as a "dragon") destroyed a village.

* BlowYouAway: Upon evolving, Gyarados gains Flying-type as its secondary type, a reference to the Chinese myth involving carps becoming flying dragons after leaping a waterfall and its koinobori inspiration. Gyarados is also able to learn the Dragon-type Twister and Hurricane from ''VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon'' onwards.

* InformedAbility: The ''Moon'' entry for Mega Gyarados states that it can streak above the water surface at supersonic speed by jetting water from the orifices on its side. Not only is its speed not altered upon Mega Evolving, none of Mega Gyarados' animations suggest that it can do that either.

* MightyGlacier: Leaning toward LightningBruiser. Gyarados has a high Attack stat, great defensive stats, and just short of great speed. It also naturally learns [[StatusBuff Dragon Dance]], boosting its Attack even higher while also making it much faster. Mega Gyarados emphasizes this, keeping the same speed and gaining buffs to attack and its defenses.

* {{Nerf}}: From Generation II onwards, Gyarados' Special stat (a respectable 100) becomes its Special Defense while its Special Attack was set to a meager 60, rendering it unable to take advantage of special moves like it used to. It doesn't help that a majority of Water-type moves are classified as special. It wasn't until Generation IV's physical/special split that it finally got access to Water-type moves that ran off its physical attack.

* NotCompletelyUseless: Magikarp's signature Splash attack infamously has no effect whatsoever in battle; however, as of Gen VII, it can be powered up with a Z-Ring, and Z-Splash now has the effect of boosting its attack by ''3 stages (2.5x)''.

** Along with others, its Mega Evolution's Pokédex entry was toned down in ''Let's Go Pikachu and Eevee'' compared to its entries in the earlier Generation 7 games. Instead of being completely governed by an urge to destroy, the entry clarifies that it still hears and listens to the voice of a trainer if it really trusts them.
** Its supposed habit of destroying cities when enraged has steadily been clarified and toned down over the generations to be more about a single legendary event of questionable authenticity rather than a recurring behavior. In generation three, a Pokédex entry casually refers to its city-destroying abilities, whereas in generation four, it is stated these are based on ancient records of a single event where it destroyed a village rather than a city. The ''Let's Go'' games would return to mentioning the species' supposed city-destroying past. ''VideoGame/PokemonLegendsArceus'' further clarifies that the professor merely ''suspects'' a Gyarados to be the identity of the "dragon" claimed in ancient texts as having razed a single village.

This is especially true during the first three generations, where all Grass-type attacks were special attacks, since Omastar's special defense is far lower than its physical defense.

* InformedAbility: Downplayed. Almost every single Pokédex entry emphasizes Omastar's use of tentacles and fangs to attack its prey. It does learn Bite and Constrict, but its actual physical offense is very lacking, so those are some of its worst moves.
* InformedFlaw: Downplayed. Many of its Pokédex entries mention that it became extinct because of its overly large shell hindering movement. While it is not very fast in normal conditions, one of its possible abilities is Swift Swim, and that's without even getting into Shell Smash and Weak Armor, which allow it to remove its own shell to improve its speed.
* IntroducedSpeciesCalamity: According to its ''Sword'' Pokédex entry, some Omanyte are either escaping their trainers or being set free, and this is starting to become a problem.

* PoorPredictableRock: Due to its typing, it has the expected Water, Rock, and Ice-type attacks, but it doesn't learn much else for Special Attacks besides Earth Power. Furthermore, while it learns many Rock-type attacks, most of them run off its shoddy physical Attack; there were only two Special Rock attacks in the entire game, and Ancient Power, despite the chance to boost all of its stats, doesn't hit that hard even with a STAB boost. This leaves Omastar with a limited set of moves it can actually make use of. It wasn't until the release of the ''Crown Tundra'' update in ''VideoGame/PokemonSwordAndShield'' that the family got access to another special Rock attack: Meteor Beam.

** One of the few Pokémon with Shell Smash, which doubles their offenses and speed and the cost of lowering their defenses.
** It is also able to learn the move tutor move Meteor Beam, which lets them charge up their special attack on the first turn before firing it on the second. Its pretty potent when combined with Swift Swim, Weak Armor or Shell Smash.

Yet another previously extinct Pokémon, Aerodactyl is a Flying Pterosaur[=/=][[DinosaursAreDragons Dragon/Wyvern]] with a Rock typing, rather than a Water-Rock invertebrate. Unlike nearly every other Rock type of this generation (and most later ones), it's extremely fast, once one of the fastest (equal to Jolteon and Mewtwo). Upon Mega Evolving from ''X and Y'' onwards, it gains loads of rock spikes all over its body and the ability to deal more damage with contact moves.

* DishingOutDirt: Aerodactyl is part Rock-type, yet strangely it didn't learn any Rock-, or Ground-type moves in Gen I. It was immediately rectified in GSC, which gave it Ancient Power, Rock Throw and Earthquake.

* CartoonCreature: Both are vaguely bear-like for the reasons mentioned under BearsAreBadNews above, with maybe a little cat thrown in for Snorlax and rabbit for Munchlax (judging by the shape of their ears), but the specific animal or creature that the line is based on was never confirmed. Although judging by the trainer clinging to Snorlax's belly when ridden in ''Let's Go'' being a clear ShoutOut to ''Anime/MyNeighborTotoro'', Snorlax and Munchlax ''might'' be based on Totoro and the little Torotos respectively. Munchlax even shares its ear shape and coloration with little Totoro.

* LateCharacterSyndrome: [[RuleOfThree Like the other two fossils]], Aerodactyl cannot be obtained in the Kanto games until it is revived at Cinnabar Island's Pokémon Lab, seven badges in and after the player has likely already found a good Flying-type (such as [[OlympusMons Articuno]], who is found en route to Cinnabar via the Seafoam Islands). It's at its worst in ''[=FireRed/LeafGreen=]'', where it arrives at a paltry level 5.

** In ''VideoGame/PokemonRedAndBlue'', the player can't revive the Helix Fossil into an Omanyte until surfing to Cinnabar Island (home of the penultimate Gym), and if they can do ''that'', odds are they already have a strong Water-type with them. It's even worse in ''[=FireRed/LeafGreen=]'', where the revived Omanyte comes out not at Level 30 (a few levels below those of the Pokémon and Trainers at that point), but Level '''5'''.

* LateCharacterSyndrome: Just as with Omanyte, the Generation I games (and the Gen II remakes) give the Dome Fossil to the player very early on, but they can only revive it at a point much farther in, to the point where they'll likely already have a good Rock and/or Water-type with them. The level they start out at doesn't help much, either.

Neither of this has any impact on gameplay, althought they have been depicted in other media.

* ThePhoenix: Moltres, in a different [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firebird_(Slavic_folklore) myth]]. This is best exemplified in ''VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon'', where a new move it learns at level 99 is a move called Burn Up. This move has 130 base power and -- unusually for a move of that strength -- is 100% accurate, but Moltres loses its fire typing upon using it. Said move also can't be used by a non-Fire-type, so ItOnlyWorksOnce.
