Game Freak: Difference between revisions

Game Freak employees appear in every core series game besides [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]]. The main reason to visit them is to obtain a [[diploma]], awarded after the completion of the [[Pokédex]]. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, the sound designer gives the [[GB Sounds]] after the player has obtained all 8 Kanto Badges.

Their headquarters are located on the third floor of the [[Celadon Condominiums]]. They have their own office on 22F of a building in [[Castelia City]], just like in their {{DL|Pokémon world in relation to the real world|Real-world locations mentioned|former real-world}} office in {{wp|Carrot Tower}}. They also have an office on the second floor of a building in [[Heahea City]]. In [[Hoenn]], a group of Game Freak employees are on vacation, staying in [[Lilycove City]]'s [[Cove Lily Motel]]; in [[Sinnoh]], a single member is staying at the [[Hotel Grand Lake]]; in [[Kalos]], the game director can be found staying at the {{DL|Coumarine City|Hotel Coumarine}} in [[Coumarine City]]; in [[Galar]], a group of Game Freak employees can be found staying in {{DL|Circhester|Hotel Ionia}} in [[Circhester]].

In {{game|Black and White|s}}, the player can battle a character representing [[Shigeki Morimoto]] in the office after stopping [[Team Plasma]]. In {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, they can also battle [[Kōji Nishino]], who uses a {{p|Snorlax}} as his highest leveled Pokémon, a reference to his nickname カビゴン ''Kabigon'', after which Snorlax is named (in the English versions, he calls himself Snorlax). Both Morimoto and Nishino have the Trainer class {{tc|GAME FREAK}}. In {{g|Sun and Moon}} and {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, the player can battle Morimoto in the Game Freak office, who will give the player an [[Oval Charm]] the first time he is defeated; this battle is located in {{DL|Circhester|Hotel Ionia}} in {{g|Sword and Shield}}.
