 ==In the games==
+Pokémon receive the OT of the Trainer who originally caught, hatched, received, or snagged the Pokémon. NPC Trainers who give away Pokémon for free will not be registered as the Pokémon's OT, except for in two instances - a {{p|Spearow}} given by {{jo|Webster}} and a {{p|Shuckle}} given by [[Kirk]], both in the [[Generation II]] games and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s|their remakes}}. These special instances are different in that the Pokémon received is intended to be later returned, in Webster's case to his friend on {{rt|31|Johto}}, and in Kirk's case, to him after {{ga|Silver}} has been defeated at [[Mt. Moon]].
-===In [[Generation I]]===
+A Pokémon bred by a player which is traded to another will be registered to the hatching Trainer, while the breeder will not matter. A [[Shadow Pokémon]] that has been snagged will initially display its OT as question marks, however, after becoming purified, it will have the person who purified it as its OT, with no mention made of the Trainer it was snagged from.
-In the Generation I games, the OT is used to verify whether the player caught the Pokémon, or they traded it in return for another of their Pokémon. At the time, the game recognised Pokémon that were won at the [[Celadon Game Corner]] or that were given to the Player{{sup|Y}}, as the Player's own Pokémon, despite them being caught in other ways.
-===In [[Generation II]]===
-In the Generation II games, Pokémon [[breeding]] was introduced, and hatched Pokémon register the Player as their Original Trainer if they are hatched in the Player's care, even if it was bred by someone else.
-===[[Generation III]] onwards===
-In [[Pokémon Colosseum]] and [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], [[Shadow Pokémon]] that are [[Snagging|snagged]] will consider the snagging Trainer to be their OT despite being there being Trainers before the person who snagged the Pokémon.
