It features character designs by Sugimori_Ken and the main RPG games were produced for Nintendo handheld video game devices since 1996, and has since spawned several spinoff games, manga, and an anime series. In the main games, the player character goes on a journey through various cities, towns and landscape (caves, forests, sea, etc.) and meets creatures known as Pokémon. The player is able to collect Pokémon to form a personalized team, train them to make them stronger, choose their known skills and command them to fight against other Pokémon. People who do that are Pokémon Trainers. Many NPCs are Pokémon Trainers available to fight against the player. The storyline advances as the player gains eight gym_leader_badges for defeating different Gym_Leaders and eventually challenges the Elite_Four and the current Champion; defeating them all grants the player the title of Champion for himself/herself. Typical side quests, such as finding a specific item or person, are also required at certain points. Additionally, the player repeatedly fights against his or her personal rivals and routinely clashes with some criminal organization. Tagging human characters 1. Human characters should be referred to by their Japanese names, in compliance with Danbooru standards, despite having English names on exported versions. e.g., natsume_(pokemon), not sabrina_(pokemon) 2. The tags should be suffixed *_(pokemon). (because most are either common names, without surnames, like "Takeshi", or descriptive trainer classes like "Swimmer", that more often than not are ambiguous) e.g., natsume_(pokemon), not natsume 3. Exceptionally, full names do not have the (pokemon) qualifier. e.g., ookido_green, not ookido_green_(pokemon) See list_of_pokemon_characters for all names. Tagging Pokémon The Pokémon themselves are referred to by their English names. Owing to their sheer number (649 registered species, as of the Black and White Versions), remembering their English names is no easy task, much less their Japanese names, which also cover many highly-ambiguous words that can and will conflict with other characters and artists. Examples: pikachu, gastly, kyogre, chikorita Japanese names, however, are applicable to newer Pokémon as temporary tags, when necessary, until their English names become officially available. Exceptionally, only kabuto_(pokemon) and golem_(pokemon) get a (pokemon) qualifier. (because the tags golem and kabuto represent something else) Some miscellaneous tags about Pokémon species, such as shiny_pokemon and clothed_pokemon, are also available. The franchise has been a mainstay of the Nintendo crossover Super Smash Bros. since the first game. Many Pokemon characters appear in the games although only a select few members of Pokemon's massive cast are playable in each game. Most of the Pokemon in the Smash bros. games function as items/weapons that are used by whoever threw a Pokeball against their enemies. See list_of_pokemon for all names.
