-A '''party''' or '''team''' is a group of up to six [[Pokémon]] that a {{pkmn|Trainer}} carries with him or her. After this team of six is filled, newly-acquired Pokémon are sent to a [[PC]] to be stored. Trainers may have any Pokémon in their party, and newly {{pkmn2|caught|captured Pokémon}} will automatically fill empty slots in the party. If a Trainer wishes to change Pokémon into or out of the party, he or she can, however, they must travel to a [[Pokémon Center]] or another PC-enabled place and use its [[Pokémon storage system]] to do so.
+A '''party''' or '''team''' is a group of up to six [[Pokémon]] that a {{pkmn|Trainer}} carries with him or her.
+==Overview==
+After this team of six is filled, newly-acquired Pokémon are sent to a [[PC]] to be stored. Trainers may have any Pokémon in their party, and newly {{pkmn2|caught|captured Pokémon}} will automatically fill empty slots in the party. If a Trainer wishes to change Pokémon into or out of the party, he or she can, however, they must travel to a [[Pokémon Center]] or another PC-enabled place and use its [[Pokémon storage system]] to do so.
+==Battle==
+When entering a single [[Pokémon battle|battle]], the first Pokémon that has not fainted in the party list is the one that will be drawn first. For [[double battle]]s, the first two Pokémon that have not fainted in the party list are the ones that will be drawn first by the Trainer. During battle, if "Switch" is selected in [[Options]], trainers can switch the participating [[Pokémon]] with another in the party.
+==Effects==
+All Pokémon in a Trainer's party will slowly gain [[Happiness|trust towards him or her]] as the Trainer walks around; Every 256 steps, the party Pokémon gain happiness. Also, if there is an [[Pokémon egg|egg]] in the party, it will slowly hatch according to steps taken. Different eggs take different amounts of distance, but to hatch they must be in the party. They will not participate in battle.
+Some [[Ability|abilities]] have an out-of-battle effect, and these can only be activated if they are in a Trainer's party.
+===Pokérus===
+{{main|Pokérus}}
+If any Pokémon in the party are suffering from [[Pokérus]], it can spread along the party, including eggs. However, Pokémon in the party will recover from Pokérus after midnight.
+==Variations==
+Viewing the party in the [[menu]] will display their name, icon, current [[HP]], [[status ailment]], and [[level]] in all games.
+===Generation I===
+[[File:Party level 10.PNG|frame|left|Viewing a party in [[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions]]]]
-When entering a single battle, the first Pokémon that has not fainted in the party list is the one that will be drawn first. For double battles, the first two Pokémon that have not fainted in the party list are the ones that will be drawn first by the Trainer.
+In the {{Gen|I}} games, there was no [[gender]], and so this is absent. Also, on the Pokémon Summary screens, there are only two screens: Stats, and [[Moves]]. The Moves section only shows the name, and the [[PP]] of each move. The icons were extremely limited, and the only Pokémon that had its own, unique icon was {{p|Pikachu}}, and still only in [[Pokémon Yellow]].
+===Generation II===
+In [[Generation II]], colour was introduced, along with gender, and both can be seen on the party screen. However, the icon range was still low, alomost as restricted as Generation I. The Moves section of the summary allowed switching orders and power to be shown along with [[type]]. [[PP]] was still visible, and the party screen itself kept the same format.
-Appropriately, any Pokémon currently in the party is called a party Pokémon. All Pokémon in a Trainer's party will slowly gain [[Happiness|trust towards him or her]] as the Trainer walks around.
+===Generation III===
+In [[Generation II]] the party screen was overhauled, now with the first Pokémon on the left. Each and every Pokémon had it's own unique icon, and all in colour. The Pokérus status is visible on the party, unless another status ailment is present. The Moves section is again updated, with a page for [[Pokémon Contest]] moves, another for the moves when used in battle. The battle moves now show accuracy, power, type, and added effects. However, shiny Pokémon do not show the alternate colours in the party screen.
-Viewing the party in the [[menu]] will display their name, icon, current HP, [[status ailment]], gender, and level.
+===Generation IV===
+====Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum====
+[[File:HGSSparty.png|frame|right|Viewing a party in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver}}]]
-Pokémon in the party will recover from [[Pokérus]] after midnight.
+In these games, the party screen is changed again, showing the party Pokémon from left to right and top to bottom. All other things stay similar, with unique icons, but it adds condition to the summary pages. The party can also be viewed through the [[Pokétch]], to see either [[HP]] and items, or Happiness.
+====HeartGold and SoulSilver====
-In {{g|HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions}}, games the Pokémon that leads the party will be following the player around, like {{g|Yellow}}'s {{p|Pikachu}}.
+In {{g|HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions}}, the Pokémon that leads the party will be following the player around, like {{g|Yellow}}'s {{p|Pikachu}}. Also, the whole screen has been remodoled. Pokémon stats and Moves can be viewed by touching the Pokémon in question on the touch screen.
