Hareta's Empoleon: Difference between revisions

'''Hareta's Empoleon''' (Japanese: '''ハレタのエンペルト''' ''Hareta's Emperte'') is the first Pokémon owned by [[Hareta]] in [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!]].

Hareta first chose Piplup to battle an angry {{p|Onix}} which had [[Mitsumi]]. Since Hareta did not have a clue about [[Poké Ball]]s, He attempted to open it by biting it. This resulted with Piplup stuck in Hareta's mouth which had angered it and refused to fight, telling Hareta that he should fight instead. The Onix, after it had seen this, calmed down. Later on, in [[Professor Rowan]]'s lab, Piplup fled to the forest, only to find the same Onix enraged for an unknown reason. Hareta and a forest Pokémon fought against it, moving Piplup. Onix was eventually calmed down with Piplup's {{m|BubbleBeam}}.  

At [[Iron Island]], Hareta decided that he was relying to heavily on Piplup, so he decided to train without it. At [[Lake Valor]], Piplup defeated [[Saturn]]'s {{p|Rhyperior}} twice and alluded Cyrus's Gyarados's attacks. Piplup was used later on the battle against Mitsumi. It, along with [[Hareta's Regigigas|Regigigas]], had defeated Mitsumi's {{p|Electivire}} and {{p|Dusknoir}} were the only two Pokémon to be standing after the battle.

After the battle, Cyrus had the building Self-destruct, with Hareta and Mitsumi still in the building. They were saved by {{OBP|Jun|DPA}}'s {{p|Dragonite}}. However, Piplup was feeling sick and Mitsumi explained that before Hareta left for his journey, she attached an {{evostone|Everstone}} to Piplup, hoping that Hareta will learn faster with weaker Pokémon. She removed the Everstone, and Piplup immediately evolved into {{p|Prinplup}} and then into {{p|Empoleon}}. Since then, it has participated during the [[Spear Pillar]] battle and the one at the {{si|Pokémon League}}.
