'''Captured Pokémon''' are [[Pokémon]] that have been put in the control of a [[Pokémon Trainer]] by the use of a [[Poké Ball]], [[Capture Styler]] or [[Traded Pokémon|trading]] with another Trainer. The capturing process typically involves a {{pkmn|battle}} in which the Pokémon is at first weakened and/or affected with a [[status ailment]], at which point the Trainer throws a Poké Ball (or upgraded version) at said Pokémon in order to catch it. Capturing Pokémon is central to all canons in the Pokémon franchise; a captured Pokémon can be used in battling and for quests to aid Trainers, whereas Pokémon in the wild cannot, except in some episodes in the anime. Pokémon that are captured, however, do not need to obey their masters; if a Pokémon is traded and the Trainer does not have the [[badge]] required, it may disobey and refuse to attack during battles. According to the anime, even with many badges or being [[Ash's Pikachu|under original ownership]], [[Ash's Charizard|many Pokémon]] still may refuse to battle until trust is gained between the Trainer and Pokémon. | '''Captured Pokémon''' are [[Pokémon]] that have been put in the control of a [[Pokémon Trainer]] by the use of a [[Poké Ball]], [[Capture Styler]] or [[Traded Pokémon|trading]] with another Trainer.
