List of generation II Pokémon

The second generation (generation II) of the Pokémon franchise features 100 fictional species of creatures introduced to the core video game series in the 1999 Game Boy Color games Pokémon Gold and Silver, set in the Johto region. Some Pokémon in this generation were introduced in animated adaptations of the franchise before Gold and Silver, such as Ho-Oh in the first episode of the Pokémon anime series in 1998 and 1999, Togepi, which was a recurring character in the anime owned by Misty, Donphan in the Pokémon first movie in 1998, Snubbull in the first Pikachu short movie in 1998, and Marill, which also debuted in that short film and was a recurring character in the anime owned by Tracey Sketchit in 1998 and 1999. Elekid, Bellossom, Ledyba, and Hoothoot debuted in Pikachu's Rescue Adventure, and Lugia and Slowking debuted in Pokémon 2000.

The following list details the 100 Pokémon of generation II in order of their National Pokédex number. The first Pokémon, Chikorita, is number 152 and the last, Celebi, is number 251. Alternate forms that result in type changes are included for convenience. Mega evolutions and regional forms are included on the pages for the generation in which they were introduced.

Design and development edit

Two new types were introduced in Pokémon Gold and Silver – namely the "Dark" and "Steel" types – which were intended to better balance the gameplay of Pokémon battles. Dark and Steel types fare well against the then dominant Psychic type. The concept of breeding was introduced in the second generation of Pokémon games as well, which allows players to manipulate the skills of their Pokémon to a greater degree.[1] Some of the new Pokémon introduced in Gold and Silver are pre-evolutions of other Pokémon, such as Pichu and Igglybuff. Referred to as "baby Pokémon", they are usually only available by breeding their evolved forms.

Pokémon Gold and Silver were first revealed at Nintendo Space World in 1997. At this point, the game had a massively larger world map than the final game and this prototype featured around 40 Pokémon designs that were removed and replaced when the games were released in 1999.[2]

Every night, it wanders around in search of prey, whose movements it restrains by spewing threads before it bites into them with its fangs.

In a paper published by the University of Leicester, physicists calculated the plausibility of Onix evolving into Steelix through the stated lore. It would require pressures of 4.5–6 gigapascals at a temperature of 900 to 1,300 °C (1,650 to 2,370 °F) over a period of billions of years for this conversion to take place. Assuming these conditions, the resulting Steelix would be substantially smaller than given in the Pokédex entry and is considered implausible.[37] It lives even further down than Onix toward the earth's core. There are records of it reaching over 6/10 of a mile down underground. Steelix evolves after being traded while holding a Metal Coat. In generation VI, it gained a Mega Evolution.

Qwilfish is based on Porcupine fish.[15] It gained a Dark/Poison-type Hisuian Form, which is capable of evolving into Overqwil.
Scizor Hassamu (ハッサム)[20] 0212 Bug Steel Scyther (#123) Mega Evolution It uses its eye-patterned pincers, which are made of steel, to scare foes into making it look like it has 3 heads. Its pincers will crush anything it gets a hold of to bits. It does not use its wings to fly, but to regulate its body temperature so it does not start to melt in battle. It has a body of steel and is not fazed by regular attacks. It tends to beat its foes to scrap with its pincers which account for about a third of its body weight. In generation VI, it gained a Mega Evolution.

In the forests inhabited by Ursaring, it is said that there are many streams and towering trees where they gather food. It walks through the forest gathering food every day. It leaves scratches on trees letting it know where the most delicious berries are. When the cold season arrives in Hisui, it will wander fields and mountains alike in search of its favorite berries. Ursaring's hunger during this time makes it a ferocious Pokémon. It usually wears a hardened expression, but when it is licking up honey, which it loves, the joy it feels will cause it to break into a wide grin.

Lugia was originally conceived by Takeshi Shudo, the head writer of the first Pokémon anime. Lugia had been designed solely for Pokémon The Movie 2000, and Shudo expressed surprise that the creature was later featured in the video games and TV show.[43] Lugia, who possessed a speaking role in the film, was given a masculine voice. However, Shudo intended Lugia as a creature that was simultaneously male and female. This dual nature was intended to embody one of the film's main messages, that people can be different and yet coexist without resorting to conflict. He showed "overwhelming regret that he allowed Lugia to be voiced by a man", considering Lugia, the "creator of all life on Earth", to be a "maternal Pokémon". Stating that "it was too late, we couldn't suddenly change Lugia into a female", the change was so significant to him that it made him start "gulping down alcohol and drugs" and "feel like [he] wanted to die". During the final few years of his life, Shudo became "obsessed" with Lugia, writing numerous blog posts on the subject.[43][unreliable source?]

speaking role in the film was given a masculine voice However Shudo intended Lugia as a creature that was simultaneously male and female This dual nature was intended to embody one of the film s main
