From [[Generation III]] onward, Pokémon caught in the {{pkmn2|wild}} or obtained as a {{pkmn2|gift}} have the game they were obtained in set as their language of origin. Pokémon obtained from [[in-game trade]]s usually have the game they were obtained in set as their language of origin, but some in-game trade Pokémon have a different language of origin. {{p|Shedinja}} retains the {{p|Nincada}}'s game of origin upon evolution.

In Generation III, {{pkmn|Egg}}s have their language of origin set upon hatching (not when first obtained).<!--internally Eggs have their language of origin is set to Japanese when obtained, but this has no functional effect--> From [[Generation IV]] to {{gen|VII}}, Eggs have their language of origin set to the language of the game in which they were obtained, not the game they were hatched in. Starting in [[Generation VIII]], Eggs again have their language of origin set to the language of the game in which they were hatched, not the game they were obtained in.

Pokémon from [[Mystery Gift]]s usually match the language of the game they are distributed to, but some distributions have a fixed language of origin regardless of the receiving game's language. This is particularly common for distributions of Pokémon that were used in official tournaments, which often match the language of the player who used them.
