View source for Origin mark

[[File:Galar symbol status screen.png|thumb|The Galar symbol, a type of origin mark, highlighted on a {{p|Mimikyu}}'s [[summary]] screen in the [[Nintendo Switch]] version of [[Pokémon HOME]]]]
An '''origin mark''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|出身|しゅっしん}}マーク''' ''origin mark''), previously known as an '''origin marking''' (Japanese: '''{{tt|出身地|しゅっしんち}}マーク''' ''place of origin mark'') in [[Pokémon Bank]], is an icon displayed on the [[summary]] screen of a Pokémon that indicates the [[game of origin|game it originated in]]. It was introduced in [[Generation VI]], and has appeared in all subsequent [[core series]] games. A Pokémon can only have one origin mark, and it cannot be changed.

Pokémon that are [[Caught Pokémon|caught]], [[Pokémon breeding|bred]], received as {{pkmn2|gift}}s, [[in-game trade]]s, or [[Mystery Gift]]s, or otherwise first obtained in certain games will have an origin mark corresponding to that game. Specifically, all games from [[Generation VI]] onward, as well as [[Generation I]] and {{gen|II}} games, have corresponding origin marks. Pokémon from [[Generation III]], [[Generation IV|IV]], and [[Generation V|V]] games do not have origin marks. A bred Pokémon's origin mark always matches the game in which it was bred, regardless of its parents' origin marks. {{p|Shedinja}} produced by the [[Evolution]] of a {{p|Nincada}} will retain the Nincada's origin mark, regardless of the game it was evolved in.

On the [[summary]] screen, the origin mark is usually placed near the [[marking]]s.

===Blue pentagon===
The '''blue pentagon'''<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20150511175142/http://support.pokemon.com/FileManagement/Download/07294296edc545bca57c76266cef60fe 2015 Play!

Prior to the release of Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, having a blue pentagon was referred to as being [[Kalos]] native.<ref>[http://assets22.pokemon.com/assets/cms/pdf/op/tournaments/2014/Play_Pokemon_VG_Rules_and_Formats_2014.pdf 2014 Play! Pokémon VG Rules and Formats] (PDF)</ref> While the blue pentagon is blue in the [[Generation VI]] games and [[Pokémon Bank]] (hence its name), it is black from [[Generation VII]] onward. The pentagon represents the shape of the Kalos region.

All of the first 721 Pokémon can have the blue pentagon, as all of them can be obtained in or were distributed as [[event Pokémon]] to the Generation VI games. In addition, {{p|Mr. Rime}}, {{p|Kleavor}}, {{p|Wyrdeer}}, {{p|Ursaluna}}, {{p|Annihilape}}, {{p|Farigiraf}}, {{p|Dudunsparce}}, and {{p|Kingambit}} can have the blue pentagon, due to their respective pre-evolved forms ({{p|Mime Jr.}}, {{p|Scyther}}, {{p|Stantler}}, {{p|Ursaring}}, {{p|Primeape}}, {{p|Girafarig}}, {{p|Dunsparce}}, and {{p|Bisharp}}) being able to have it, for a total of 729 Pokémon able to have this origin mark.

===Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl mark===
The Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl mark (official name unknown) is an origin mark that Pokémon obtained in [[Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl]] and certain Pokémon [[List of game-based Pokémon distributions in Generation VIII|obtainable]] from [[Pokémon HOME]] have. It is in the shape of a triangle augmented with a circle at each of its three vertices, representing the [[Sinnoh]] region and its three lakes.

In [[Pokémon Sword and Shield]], any Pokémon with this origin mark instead uses the Galar symbol as its origin mark while in those games, but regains its proper origin mark if moved back to Pokémon HOME.

491 of the first 493 Pokémon can have this origin mark, with {{p|Celebi}} and {{p|Deoxys}} being the only two Pokémon in Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl unable to have it. In addition, {{p|Sylveon}}, {{p|Mr. Rime}}, {{p|Wyrdeer}}, {{p|Kleavor}}, {{p|Ursaluna}}, {{p|Annihilape}}, {{p|Farigiraf}}, and {{p|Dudunsparce}} can also have this mark, due to their respective pre-evolved forms ({{p|Eevee}}, {{p|Mime Jr.}}, {{p|Stantler}}, {{p|Scyther}}, {{p|Ursaring}}, {{p|Primeape}}, {{p|Girafarig}}, and {{p|Dunsparce}}) being able to have it, for a total of 499 Pokémon able to have this origin mark. However, {{p|Spinda}} cannot have the mark outside of Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl due to its inability to be transferred out of those games.

Additionally, {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Weezing}} and {{p|Mr. Mime}} and {{rf|Hisuian}} {{p|Typhlosion}} can have this mark, due to their respective pre-evolved forms ({{p|Koffing}}, {{p|Mime Jr.}}, and {{p|Quilava}}) being able to have it.

In [[Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl]] and [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]], any Pokémon with this origin mark instead lacks an origin mark while in those games, but regains its proper origin mark if moved back to Pokémon HOME.

All 664 available Pokémon<!--regional forms are not distinct species--> in the [[List of Pokémon by Paldea Pokédex number|Paldea]], [[List of Pokémon by Kitakami Pokédex number|Kitakami]], and [[List of Pokémon by Blueberry Pokédex number|Blueberry]] Pokédexes can have this origin mark. In addition, 36 more Pokémon not in the aforementioned Pokédexes can also have this mark—including {{p|Mew}} and {{p|Darkrai}} (which have only been available with this mark through [[Mystery Gift]]); {{p|Mewtwo}}, {{p|Dialga}}, and {{p|Palkia}} (which have only been available with this mark in [[Poké Portal News]] event [[Tera Raid Battle]]s); {{p|Wyrdeer}} (which requires {{p|Stantler}} with this mark to be [[transfer]]red to [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]] and evolved); and {{p|Sneasler}} and {{p|Phione}} (which requires breeding {{rf|Hisuian}} {{p|Sneasel}}/Sneasler with an [[Everstone]] or {{p|Manaphy}}/Phione in Scarlet or Violet, respectively, to have this mark)—making a total of 700 Pokémon able to have this mark.

===No origin mark===
Pokémon obtained in the [[Generation III]], {{gen|IV}}, and {{gen|V}} games do not have any origin mark. Although Pokémon obtained in the [[Generation I]] and {{gen|II}} games and [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] do not display an origin mark in said games, they gain one if [[transfer]]red to [[Pokémon Bank]] or [[Pokémon HOME]].

Pokémon originating in [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]] do not display an origin mark when transferred to [[Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl]] or [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]]. However, they regain their proper origin mark if moved back into [[Pokémon HOME]].

A total of 658 Pokémon can lack an origin mark, consisting of the first 649 Pokémon as well as {{p|Sylveon}}, {{p|Mr. Rime}}, {{p|Wyrdeer}}, {{p|Kleavor}}, {{p|Ursaluna}}, {{p|Annihilape}}, {{p|Farigiraf}}, {{p|Dudunsparce}}, and {{p|Kingambit}}. A further 11 Pokémon are only able to lack an origin mark if they originate in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet and are transferred to Pokémon Legends: Arceus ({{p|Goomy}}, {{p|Sliggoo}}, {{p|Goodra}}, {{p|Bergmite}}, {{p|Avalugg}}, {{p|Rowlet}}, {{p|Dartrix}}, {{p|Decidueye}}, {{p|Basculegion}}, {{p|Sneasler}}, and {{p|Overqwil}}).

Additionally, {{rf|Alolan}} {{p|Raichu}}, {{p|Exeggutor}}, and {{p|Marowak}}, {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Weezing}} and {{p|Mr. Mime}}, and {{rf|Hisuian}} {{p|Typhlosion}}, {{p|Samurott}}, {{p|Lilligant}}, and {{p|Braviary}} can lack an origin mark. A further 11 regional form Pokémon are only able to lack an origin mark if they originate in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet and are transferred to Pokémon Legends: Arceus (Alolan {{p|Vulpix}} and {{p|Ninetales}}, Hisuian {{p|Growlithe}}, {{p|Arcanine}}, {{p|Voltorb}}, {{p|Electrode}}, {{p|Qwilfish}}, {{p|Sneasel}}, {{p|Zorua}}, and {{p|Zoroark}}, and White-Striped {{p|Basculin}}).

==Function==
In official live tournaments in Generations VI, VII, and VIII, as well as in the [[Battle Spot]] in [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]], only Pokémon with a particular origin mark can be used:
* For Generation VI official live tournaments and Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire's Battle Spot, only Pokémon with the blue pentagon can be used.
* For Generation VII official live tournaments, only Pokémon with the black clover can be used.
* For Generation VIII official live tournaments, only Pokémon with the Galar symbol or the [[battle-ready symbol]] can be used.

In [[Pokémon Bank]]'s list mode, it is possible to filter Pokémon by their origin mark, although it is not possible to filter for Pokémon that have none. [[Pokémon HOME]] also features this functionality with the addition of filtering for Pokémon with no origin mark.

In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}} and {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, showing the Game Director a Pokémon with no origin mark that originated from [[Generation III]]'s [[Hoenn]] (in Omega Ruby or Alpha Sapphire) or [[Generation IV]]'s [[Sinnoh]] (in Brilliant Diamond or Shining Pearl) causes the Game Director to comment on the Pokémon and show the player a [[Diploma#Time Travel Awards|Time Travel Award Diploma]].

In {{g|X and Y}}, if the player has owned a species of Pokémon, but only a Pokémon that does not have a blue pentagon, it will be marked in the [[Pokédex]] differently. The player will receive a crown on the Pokédex screen for each of the [[List of Pokémon by Kalos Pokédex number|Kalos Pokédexes]] if the Pokédex is completed using only Pokémon that have a blue pentagon. The player will receive a different [[diploma]] for a Pokédex completed using Pokémon without a blue pentagon, though it is still possible to obtain a crown and get the normal diploma if the Pokédex is later completed using only Pokémon with a blue pentagon.

In {{g|Sun and Moon}}, if the player talks to [[Shigeki Morimoto#In-game cameo appearance|Morimoto]] while they have a Pokémon with the Game Boy mark in their [[party]], he will comment that it takes him back, then state trivia about the development of the Generation I [[core series]] games. In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, this feature returns, and Morimoto will also detail the development of the Generation II core series games if shown a Pokémon from the [[Virtual Console]] releases of the Generation II games.

In [[Pokémon HOME]], depositing Pokémon with a Nintendo Switch or GO origin mark will register that Pokémon in its corresponding regional Pokédex:
* Depositing a Pokémon with the Let's Go mark (except {{p|Mew}}) will register that Pokémon in the Kanto Pokédex.
* Depositing a Pokémon with the Galar symbol that is in any of Sword and Shield's Pokédexes (except {{p|Zarude}}) will register that Pokémon in the Galar, Isle of Armor, or Crown Tundra Pokédex.
* Depositing a Pokémon in the Sinnoh regional Pokédex with the Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl mark (except {{p|Manaphy}}) will register that Pokémon in the Sinnoh Pokédex.
* Depositing a Pokémon with the Legends: Arceus mark will register that Pokémon in the Hisui Pokédex.
* Depositing a Pokémon in any of Scarlet and Violet's Pokédexes with the Scarlet and Violet mark (except {{p|Walking Wake}}, {{p|Iron Leaves}}, or {{p|Pecharunt}}) will register that Pokémon in the Paldea, Kitakami, or Blueberry Pokédex.
* Depositing a Pokémon with the Pokémon GO mark (except [[Mythical Pokémon]]) will register that Pokémon in the Pokémon GO Pokédex.

==Trivia==
* For games that have origin marks, they share the same origin mark with other games if and only if they can directly interact with each other (i.e. [[Trade|trading]], [[Pokémon battle|battling]], etc.). For example, Pokémon X, Y, Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire can all interact with each other, and all share the same origin mark; conversely, Pokémon Sword and Shield, Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, and Pokémon Legends: Arceus cannot interact with each other despite all being [[Generation VIII]] games, and all have different origin marks.
