'''Misty's Togetic''' (Japanese: '''カスミのトゲチック''' ''Kasumi's Togechick'') was found as a [[Pokémon egg]] by [[Ash Ketchum]] in [[Grandpa Canyon]] in ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]''. Ash, [[Misty]], [[Brock]] and [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]] fought over the egg and competed to determine who would be the eventual owner. When the Pokémon Egg hatched into {{p|Togepi}}, the first thing it saw was Misty, and it chose her as its trainer, thinking that she was its mother.  It ended up being the sixth Pokémon Misty got in the [[Kanto]] region. Its voice actress as both a Togepi and Togetic was ''[[Satomi Kōrogi]]''.
'''Misty's Togetic''' (Japanese: '''カスミのトゲチック''' ''Kasumi's Togechick'') was the sixth {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} acquired by {{an|Misty}} in the [[Kanto]] [[region]].


Although Togepi appeared harmless, it sometimes used {{m|Metronome}} to get out of dangerous situations. The first time it happened was in ''[[EP086|Pikachu Re-Volts]]''. [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]]'s {{p|Drowzee}} was using Metronome to attack Ash and his friends. Misty's Togepi began using it, causing an explosion that sent Butch and Cassidy flying. It happened again in ''[[EP088|In the Pink]]''. A {{p|Rhyhorn}} was about to charge the group when Togepi used Metronome to use {{m|Teleport}}. It also used the move later in the episode to stop a {{m|Hyper Beam}} attack by a {{p|Nidoking}} by using {{m|Reflect}}.
==In the anime==
===History===
====[[Original series]]====
[[File:Togepi Egg.png|220px|thumb|left|Togepi's Egg]]
[[File:Misty Togepi.png|thumb|left|220px|As a Togepi]]
=====Kanto=====
Togepi was found as a [[Pokémon Egg]] by {{Ash}} in [[Grampa Canyon]] in ''[[EP046|Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon]]''.  


Despite the fact that Misty knew Togepi could battle, she only used it one time to battle Ash. In ''[[EP151|The Totodile Duel]]'', Ash was using his [[Ash's Pikachu|Pikachu]] to battle Misty for ownership of a [[Ash's Totodile|Totodile]]. Misty used Togepi, because she knew Pikachu would never attack it, as Pikachu would often babysit it. Using {{m|Charm}}, she ended up defeating Pikachu.
In ''[[EP050|Who Gets to Keep Togepi?]]'', Ash, {{an|Misty}}, {{an|Brock}}, and {{MTR}} fought over the Egg and competed in a {{pkmn|battle}} tournament to determine who would be the eventual owner. When the Egg hatched into {{p|Togepi}}, the first thing it saw was Misty, and it subsequently chose her as its {{pkmn|Trainer}}, thinking that she was its mother. This was in spite of the fact that Ash officially won the tournament.


As Ash, Brock, May and Max met Misty near the gate to the [[Mirage Kingdom]] in ''[[AG044|The Princess and the Togepi]]'', it was kidnapped again by [[Jessie]], [[James]] and Meowth, who were temporarily working for [[Colonel Hansen]], a crooked Mirage Kingdom official. Colonel Hansen wanted to get his hands on Misty's Togepi so he could rule the Mirage Kingdom. Since Colonel Hansen is an impure-hearted person, his taking over the Mirage Kingdom would destroy the Togepi Paradise. It later evolved into a Togetic in ''[[AG045|A Togepi Mirage!]]'', in order to protect the other Togepi. When Togetic was injured by Colonel Hansen, Misty promptly sent out her [[Misty's Gyarados|Gyarados]] and defeated Hansen's Shedinja with a {{m|Flamethrower}} attack. After seeing the damage Hansen had done trying to reach the Mirage Kingdom, Misty released her Togetic to protect the Kingdom, the [[Togepi Paradise]], and the Togepi who lived there.
In ''[[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]]'', Ash was startled by Togepi and accidentally sent it flying away, where it eventually ended up in the hands of Team Rocket. They duly presented it to {{an|Giovanni}} who was unimpressed as Togepi couldn't actually do anything remarkable at the time. Togepi managed to slip away and soon reunited with Misty.


==Fandom criticisms==
=====Orange Islands=====
[[Image:WhoGetstoKeepTogepi.gif|thumb|right|Misty holding Togepi]]
[[File:Misty Togepi crying.png|220px|thumb|As a Togepi, crying]]
Amongst many fans, Misty's obtaining Togepi is considered the moment when her personality "[[wp:Jumping the shark|jumped the shark]]", and started to become drastically different.  Prior to Togepi's introduction, Misty was known for being angry, active, and prone to fits of competitive spirit and rage. After she began to raise Togepi, her personality became significantly subdued as her character revolved more and more around the little Pokémon's wellbeing, leaving her little time for anything else.
Although Togepi appeared harmless, it sometimes used {{m|Metronome}} to get out of dangerous situations. The first time it happened was in ''[[EP086|Pikachu Re-Volts]]''. [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]]'s {{p|Drowzee}} was using Metronome to attack Ash and his friends. Misty's Togepi began using it, causing an explosion that sent Butch and Cassidy flying. It happened again in ''[[EP088|In the Pink]]''. A {{p|Rhyhorn}} was about to charge the group when Togepi used {{m|Metronome}} to use {{m|Teleport}}. It also used the move later in the episode to stop a {{m|Hyper Beam}} attack from a {{p|Nidoking}} by using {{m|Barrier}}.


Whether this drastic shift in character was caused in itself by Togepi or rather a writer's block by the producers over what to do with Misty in the [[Generation II]] series is unknown, but websites and organizations such as [[Pokemopolis]] will often point to her acquisition of the little creature as the sign of a sudden shift of much of Misty's character.
=====Johto=====
Despite the fact that Misty knew Togepi could battle, she only used it one time to battle Ash. In ''[[EP151|The Totodile Duel]]'', Ash was using his {{AP|Pikachu}} to battle Misty for ownership of a {{AP|Totodile}}. Misty used Togepi, because she knew Pikachu would never attack it, as Pikachu would often babysit it. Using {{m|Charm}}, Togepi ended up defeating Pikachu.


Perhaps in a bit of irony, a running joke on the Pokemopolis website is that Misty's Togepi was a creature from another dimension who wanted to take over the world and fed off of Misty's happiness.  Bizarrely enough, much of that joke turned out to be (technically) true in the Mirage Kingdom mini-arc.
In ''[[EP180|Houndoom's Special Delivery]]'', Togepi was separated from Misty and the rest of the group for some time, after it used Metronome to teleport itself away from [[James's Weezing]]. A {{p|Houndoom}} rescued it from a tree and the two became good friends, sharing a sad goodbye when it was time for Togepi to leave.
   
In ''[[EP229|An EGG-sighting Adventure!]]'', it used Metronome again to teleport [[Ash's Donphan|Ash's Egg]] away from {{TRT}}.


==Moves used==
===={{series|Advanced Generation}}====
*{{m|Charm}}
[[File:Misty and Togetic.png|thumb|220px|Togetic and Misty saying their farewells]]
*{{m|Metronome}}
As Ash, Brock, {{an|May}}, and [[Max]] met Misty near the gate to the [[Mirage Kingdom]] in ''[[AG044|The Princess and the Togepi]]'', Togepi was kidnapped again by [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}, who were temporarily working for [[Colonel Hansen]], a crooked Mirage Kingdom official. Colonel Hansen wanted to get his hands on Misty's Togepi so he could rule the Mirage Kingdom. Since Colonel Hansen had an impure heart, his taking over the Mirage Kingdom would destroy the [[Togepi Paradise]].
*{{m|Safeguard}}
 
Togepi later evolved into a Togetic in ''[[AG045|A Togepi Mirage!]]'' in order to protect the other Togepi. When Togetic was injured by Colonel Hansen, Misty promptly sent out her {{TP|Misty|Gyarados}} and defeated Hansen's {{p|Shedinja}} with a {{m|Flamethrower}} attack. After seeing the damage Hansen had done trying to reach the Mirage Kingdom, Misty respected her Togetic's decision to stay behind and {{pkmn2|released}} it, so it could protect the Kingdom, the Togepi Paradise, and the Togepi who lived there.
 
===={{series|Best Wishes}}====
Togetic appeared as a Togepi in Ash's flashback in ''[[BW116|The Fires of a Red-Hot Reunion!]]''.
 
===={{series|Sun & Moon}}====
Togetic appeared as a Togepi in Brock's flashback in ''[[SM042|Alola, Kanto!]]''.
 
===Personality and characteristics===
{{bulbanews|Personality & Development: Misty's Togetic}}
As a Togepi, it was close to {{an|Misty}} ever since its hatching, and they quickly developed a relationship akin to that between a mother and a child. However, despite its adorable appearance, Togepi boasted an incredible amount of power that showed itself on occasion.
 
As a Togepi, it was particularly curious about the world around itself. Because of this, it was prone to walking off and getting itself and {{AP|Pikachu}} who would always pursue it into dangerous situations, which usually resulted in Pikachu getting hurt while Togepi walked away unharmed. It was also very friendly towards other Pokémon, again unaware of the potential dangers like {{p|Voltorb}} in ''[[EP114|The Underground Round Up]]''.
 
Another one of Togepi's unlikely friendships was depicted in ''[[EP180|Houndoom's Special Delivery]]'', where it was forced to say goodbye to its new friend {{p|Houndoom|Doomy}}; this showcased Togepi's ability to change hearts. When it [[Evolution|evolved]] and assumed its new responsibility as the [[Togepi Paradise]] guardian in ''[[AG045|A Togepi Mirage!]]'', Togetic was markedly more mature while maintaining its pure heart.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
Misty is shown with a Togepi in ''[[PM055|The Pokémon Banana League (Part 2)]]''. She temporarily gives {{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}} her Togepi when he was battling his rival, {{OBP|Green|Pocket Monsters}}, as Red couldn't handle him on his own. Togepi was returned to the rightful owner after the battle was finished.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*Before Misty hatched her [[Misty's Azurill|Azurill]], Togetic was the only Pokémon she owned that was not of the {{type2|Water}}.
* Togetic is the only Pokémon Misty has owned that is neither {{type|Water}} nor can evolve into a Water-type Pokémon.
*Togetic is the only anime Pokémon hatched from an egg that has both evolved and can evolve again, though it could not evolve again the last time it was seen.
* Togetic is the only Pokémon a {{ashfr|main character}} other than Ash has {{pkmn2|released}}, excluding temporary Pokémon or [[Dawn's Pachirisu]], which was re-caught.
**Also, It's currently the only pokemon that officially belongs to a main character despite never being placed in a pokéball.
* As a Togepi, it was the first {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} to be obtained by a main character (and overall, Togepi was the second [[Generation II]] Pokémon to appear in the {{pkmn|anime}} after {{an|Ho-Oh}}).
*Togetic is the only anime Pokémon hatched from an egg to never be placed in a Pokéball (it was hinted that [[Misty's Azurill|Azurill]] was placed in a Pokéball when she returned to Cerulean gym, due to it's notable lack of appearance in the 10th anniversary special.)
** Togepi was also the first [[baby Pokémon]] owned by a main character.
* Togetic is the first Pokémon to be seen hatching from an {{pkmn|Egg}} in the anime.
* Togetic is referred to as a male in the {{pmin|Brazil|Brazilian Portuguese}} dub of several episodes.
