'''Friendship''' (Japanese: '''なつき{{tt|度|ど}}''' ''degree of emotional attachment''), also referred to as '''tame''' in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]] and '''friendliness''' in [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], as well as commonly referred to by fans as '''happiness''', is a measurement of how much a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} is attached to its {{pkmn|Trainer}} and enjoys being in their care.

It affects the [[evolution]] of {{cat|Pokémon that evolve by friendship|certain Pokémon}}, the power of {{m|Return}} and {{m|Frustration}}, and the availability of a few in-game [[item]]s and [[Ribbon]]s. Certain events increase a Pokémon's friendship (gaining a [[level]], walking a certain amount of steps) or decrease it ([[fainting]], using [[herbal medicine]]).

Friendship debuted in [[Generation I]] as a mechanic that applied only to the {{player}}'s Pikachu in {{game|Yellow}}. In [[Generation II]], it was expanded to cover all Pokémon. In all games, friendship is a value that ranges from 0 to 255 (stored as a single byte). In Pokémon Yellow, Pikachu's friendship is indicated by the expression it shows when the player talks to it, but in later games, [[#Raters|certain NPCs]] in the games will evaluate the friendship of a Pokémon in the player's [[party]].

A Pokémon's friendship is generally set when the player first obtains it. When a Pokémon is first caught from the wild, its friendship starts at its [[List of Pokémon by base friendship|base friendship]] value. Trading a Pokémon also resets its friendship to its base value, unless it is being traded back to its [[original Trainer]] in [[Generation VI]] or later, in which case it regains the friendship it had before being traded away. A Pokémon caught in a {{ball|Friend}} starts with 200 friendship instead of its base friendship, while a Pokémon hatched from an {{pkmn|Egg}} starts with 120 friendship.

===Boosting friendship===
===Boosting friendship===
Starting in Generation III, there are a few ways to boost the amount of friendship a Pokémon gains. If a Pokémon was caught in a {{ball|Luxury}} or is currently at the same location where it was {{pkmn2|caught}} (its met location), any increase to its friendship is boosted by an extra point. If a Pokémon is holding a {{DL|Out-of-battle effect item|Soothe Bell}}, increases to its friendship are boosted by 50% of the change. In Generation III, Soothe Bell applies directly to the original change in friendship, while in later games, it applies to the the friendship change after including Luxury Ball and met location bonuses.
In {{game|Crystal}}, if a Pokémon is leveled up at its met location, it will gain twice as much friendship from that level up as usual. Since only Pokémon caught in Pokémon Crystal have a defined met location, Pokémon caught in the [[Generation I]] games, {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, and Pokémon from [[in-game trade]]s will not receive this bonus. If a Pokémon that has a defined met location is traded to a Generation I game, this data is permanently erased, so it can no longer receive this bonus.


In Generation IV, being at its met location does not change the amount of friendship a Pokémon gains. The effect returned in Generation V.
Starting in Generation III, if a Pokémon was caught in a {{ball|Luxury}} or is currently at the same location where it was {{pkmn2|caught}} (its met location), any increase to its friendship is boosted by an extra point (two points if both apply). If a Pokémon is holding a [[Soothe Bell]], increases to its friendship are boosted by 50% of the change. In Generation III, Soothe Bell applies directly to the original change in friendship, while in later games, it applies to the the friendship change after including Luxury Ball and met location bonuses. In Generation IV, being at its met location does not change the amount of friendship a Pokémon gains, but it does from Generation V onward.


Generation V introduced Befriending Power as a [[Pass Power]], which can boost any increase to friendship by one to three points depending on the strength of the power used. Generation VI included Befriending Power as well, as an [[O-Power]]. It does not exist in [[Generation VII]].
In Generation V, the Befriending Power [[Pass Power]] boosts any increase to friendship by one to three points depending on the strength of the power used. In Generation VI, the Befriending Power [[O-Power]] has the same effect. Befriending Power does not exist in [[Generation VII]].


None of these effects change the amount of friendship lost for negative changes or for changes of 0 (such as using an {{DL|Battle item|X Attack}} on a Pokémon with high friendship).

===Mechanics using friendship===
===Mechanics using friendship===
In Pokémon Yellow, friendship affected very little beyond the reactions Pikachu would show when interacted with. Starting in Generation II, however, {{cat|Pokémon that evolve by friendship}} were introduced, as well as the moves {{m|Return}} and {{m|Frustration}}, which vary in power depending on how high or low the user's friendship is.

In Pokémon Yellow, friendship affected very little beyond the reactions Pikachu would show when interacted with.


{{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} also introduced a [[Ribbon]] for Pokémon with maximum friendship, the {{DL|List of Ribbons in the games|Footprint Ribbon}}.
Starting in [[Generation II]], there are {{cat|Pokémon that evolve by friendship}}, which can only evolve if they have 220 friendship or more. Additionally, the moves {{m|Return}} and {{m|Frustration}} vary in power depending on how high or low the user's friendship is.


Some NPCs also only give gifts or [[Move Tutor|teach moves]] when the player's Pokémon has a certain amount of friendship.<!--Maybe should be listed. I think the Soothe Bell and Lucky Egg are a couple (sometimes?), and the Pledge moves.-->
From [[Generation IV]] onward, there is a [[Ribbon]] for Pokémon with maximum friendship, the {{DL|List of Ribbons in the games|Footprint Ribbon}}.
 
Some NPCs also only give gifts or [[Move Tutor|teach moves]] when the player's Pokémon has a certain amount of friendship.<!--Maybe should be listed. I think the Soothe Bell and Lucky Egg are a couple (sometimes?).--> In particular, a Pokémon must have maximized friendship to learn {{m|Draco Meteor}} in [[Generation IV]], [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], and [[Pokémon Sun and Moon]], or to learn {{m|Frenzy Plant}}, {{m|Blast Burn}}, {{m|Hydro Cannon}}, {{m|Grass Pledge}}, {{m|Fire Pledge}}, or {{m|Water Pledge}} in any generation.

Friendship also has an effect in the second game of the [[Pokémon Ranger]] series. [[Partner Pokémon]] can have the condition of ''Fine'', ''Happy'', or ''Very Happy''. When it is in a ''Happy Mood'', black musical notes appear to come out of it. Multicolored musical notes come out when it is ''Very Happy''. This may happen whether or not it is with the {{player}}. This state of mind increases the speed the Partner Gauge fills up due to more Partner Energy being provided.
