Clemontic Gear: Difference between revisions

Through ''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]'', {{an|Clemont}} has come up with several inventions in his [[bag|backpack]] called the '''Clemontic Gear''' (Japanese: '''シトロニックギア''' ''Citronic Gear''), mostly to help {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} overcome a certain situation. Clemont usually introduces his new invention by saying, ''"The future is now, thanks to science! Clemontic Gear, ON!"'' followed by stating the name of the invention and explaining how it works. By means of a running gag, Clemont's inventions often explode or fail to work, with only a few inventions actually proving successful. Despite this, Ash always becomes enthralled with Clemont's inventions, always saying, ''"Wow! Science is so amazing!"'' Sometimes there is an environmental circumstance that causes the invention to fail, but most of the time it is because the invention is not completely finished yet. Clemont tends to give either very obvious or very long and unpractical names to his inventions, often to the annoyance of {{an|Bonnie}}.

| The '''Solar Charger''' (Japanese: '''ソーラーチャージャー''' ''Solar Charger'') is an extendable arm of Clemont's backpack, similar to the Aipom Arm. It acts as a strong flashlight. Clemont used it to lighten up a cave while the group and [[Korrina]] were in search for a [[Lucarionite]]. It was also used in ''[[M19|Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel]]'' to help Clemont repair something during nightttime.

| The '''Only Lonely Robo Dancing Partner''' (Japanese: '''オンリーロンリーダンシングパートナー''' ''Only Lonely Dancing Partner Robot'') is a robot designed as a female {{p|Chespin}} that operates as a dancing partner. It grabs a Pokémon's hands and performs several dancing techniques with it. It is operated with a remote. Clemont used it for his Chespin, who stated it wanted to perform like Pokémon in [[Pokémon Showcase]]s do. After performing several dance techniques with Chespin, the invention started to overheat and went out of control. It ultimately exploded.

| The '''Track Down Squishy For Certain Mark 1''' (Japanese: '''絶対にプニちゃんを見つけるぞ1号''' ''Absolute Puni-chan Finder Mark 1'') is an invention designed to detect what were in fact {{p|Zygarde}} signals, collect the Zygarde [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Zygarde|Core]], and bring it back to Ash and his friends. Clemont used this invention to help find the missing Squishy. However, Clemont wasn't fully aware of what Squishy was, and so didn't know to program the machine to differentiate between Zygarde ''Core'' and the Zygarde ''Cells'' that Squishy controls. As a result, it tried to collect the first group of Cells it detected, which unfortunately were resting on a sleeping Team Rocket. Angry at the contraption for waking her up only to insistently and mindlessly harass the group, Jessie ended up kicking it. As a result, it returned to Clemont half-collapsed, having failed to procure even a single Zygarde Cell, acquisition of which might have given Clemont insight into what it was he was searching for.

| The (Japanese: '''マッサージプニプニくん1号''' ''Puni-chan Massage Machine-kun No. 1'') is designed to massage Squishy. It is a yellow box with heat ventilation on top, a flexible purple torso atop a metallic wheeled tray, and purple arms with white gloved hands, adorned with a crudely drawn picture of Bonnie's face. In the fraction of a minute it worked, Squishy seemed to enjoy it, but it quickly malfunctioned, sparking and massaging Squishy too roughly before exploding.

| The '''Mister Dirt Analyzing Simulator''' (Japanese: '''土壌分析シミュレーションくん！''' ''Soil Analysis Simulation-kun'') analyzes the components of certain soil, simulates seeds being planted in this soil and visualizes the data gathered, all to determine whether plants can grow in a certain patch of land. It can also determine the size of a rock and check if there are water veins underneath the soil. It consists of a computer screen standing on a leg and is activated by pressing a button. It was used to check if the soil in a certain area of {{rt|19|Kalos}} was capable of growing plants, since a robot named [[Robon]] was trying to bring the area back to its former lush state. After the first test, the invention determined the soil was not viable, but after Robon removed a rock that was blocking a water vein, the invention declared the soil was now capable of growing plants. It was voiced by [[Eileen Stevens]] in the English dub.

| The (Japanese: '''素晴らしいセレナポフレプロデューサー1号''' ''Amazing Serena Pofflé Producer Mark 1'') is an invention made by Clemont.

| The (Japanese:<!-- ''''''--> ''Automatic Fisher and Jumper Fishing Rod'') are a special lure and an automatic fishing rod Clemont invented. The rod uses professional fishing techniques to calculate casting techniques and depths to fish from, while the lure has a rocket, so it can propel further to catch fish. He was going to use it in a fishing contest, until {{an|Cilan}} told him there's a better way to catch fish. They did use it later to catch a runaway subway so they could rescue Bonnie.
