PokéNav

A Pokémon Navigator (Japanese: ポケモンナビゲーター Pokémon Navigator), more often referred to as PokéNav (Japanese: ポケナビ PokéNavi), is an electronic device found in Hoenn. It was produced by the Devon Corporation under the orders of Mr. Stone, who wanted to find a way to keep track of a Pokémon's feelings. Mr. Stone gives it to the protagonist of Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald for recovering the Devon Goods from Team Aqua or Team Magma. They appear to be small, compact-disk-shaped devices.

PokéNav

In the anime, Max has a PokéNav he received as a traveling gift from his parents. The main function is the map which slightly reduced the amount of times that Ash got lost. In the Ever Grande Conference, it provided all the latest battle results along with statistics on each competitor.

They are chiefly useful for Coordinators to keep track of a Pokémon's status for Contests.

Functions

Map

The PokéNav displays a map of Hoenn, along with the current location of its owner.

Condition

The PokéNav checks the Cool, Beauty, Cute, Smart, and Tough condition of Pokémon in detail. It can be set to search only through party Pokémon, or all Pokémon owned combined.

Trainer's Eyes

In Ruby and Sapphire, the PokéNav will keep track of 69 unique Trainers and alert the user when they want a rematch. The only requirement is that the player must have obtained five badges first. It also has information on Gym Leaders and Pokémon League members, though they cannot be battled through this function. There exists a hidden game mechanic that means the more often the player steps on to the route or cave where any of these unique Trainers are located, the greater chance the opponent Trainer in that area will be ready for a rematch. The amount of time for this effect to take place occurs at random.

Match Call

In Emerald, the Trainer's Eyes is replaced by the Match Call. In addition to the features of the Trainer's Eyes, it allows its user to call anyone who has had their PokéNav registered with theirs, similar to the cell phone feature of the Pokégear. An advantage the Match Call has over Trainer's Eyes is that after any of the unique trainers are defeated, they identify themselves and have their number listed, which makes it easier to know where they are. The Match Call can also keep track of more trainers than Trainer's Eyes, including having a few other non-trainers like the player's mother and Prof. Birch listed and allows rematches with Gym Leaders.

PokéNav in the anime

Max receives a PokéNav in the episode There's no Place Like Hoenn given to him by his dad as a traveling gift and to guide them in their journey across Hoenn. Another function of the PokéNav, as seen in the episode Shocks and Bonds, can also identify various Trainers like Clark. In The Right Place and The Right Mime, Tracey upgrades Max's PokéNav so it can locate the Battle Frontier facilities. Scott, the owner of the Battle Frontier, also has a PokéNav.

TCG

The PokéNav appears as a card at EX Crystal Guardians set.

Trivia

  • In Emerald, despite not being able to call Scott while he is in the Battle Frontier, other Trainers may still call the player while one is there.
