====Fame Checker====
In the Generation II games and their [[remake]]s, the player first encounters Lance at the [[Lake of Rage]], where he watches the player battle the [[Red Gyarados]]. Afterwards, he appears in [[Mahogany Town]] to help the player fight Team Rocket at the [[Team Rocket HQ]]. Lance rewards the player with the [[HM]] for {{m|Whirlpool}} for helping him put an end to Team Rocket's sinister plans. In the remakes, he also teams up with the player in a [[Multi Battle]] against [[Ariana]] during these events. In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, he and Clair can also be faced in another Multi Battle at [[Dragon's Den]] during the post-game.
 
In {{B2W2}}, Lance represents Johto at the [[Pokémon World Tournament]], taking part in the [[Champions Tournament]].
 
In {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun, Moon}}, {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon}}, [[Professor Kukui]] reveals that he challenged Lance at one point, with [[Pokémon Masters EX]] specifying that {{mas|Lance}} was the [[Indigo League]] Champion at that time. The end result of their battle is unknown, however.
 
===Appearance===
Lance is often depicted as a tall young man with athletic build, carmine-colored spiky hair and brown eyes. He often seen wearing a cape in all of his outfits. In [[Generation I]], he wears a black shirt and a red jacket over it. On his shoulders is a cape that is red on the outside and black in the inside. He wears black jeans with red lines and a belt with a gold dragon-shaped buckle. He also wears red boots

In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, Lance wears a medieval-looking navy blue tunic with red-orange trim, a brown belt around his waist, and large black boots with orange two rings around the top of each boot. The cuffs of his long sleeves are black with orange zigzagging trim separating the cuff from the navy blue part of the sleeve. He sports a long, flowing cape around his neck which is black on the outside and crimson red on the inside.

==={{g|Stadium 2}}===
Lance returns in {{g|Stadium 2}}, where he serves as the final Trainer in the Johto Gym Leader Castle and must be defeated in order to gain access to the Kanto Gym Leader Castle.


===={{g|Stadium 2}}====
During the game's end credits, he is seen having a battle with [[Clair]].
In Pokémon Stadium 2, Lance is the Champion, who is fought at the end of the Elite Four. As the player must use the same Pokémon that he or she used against the Elite Four, Lance is extremely difficult to defeat with Rental Pokémon, but not impossible (due to the element of chance). Once Lance is defeated, the player can battle any [[Gym Leaders]] in the Kanto region at any time.

=====[[Lake of Rage]]=====
===[[Pokémon Puzzle Challenge]]===
* After battle with [[Red Gyarados]]
Lance appears as an opponent in [[Pokémon Puzzle Challenge]]. He uses a {{TP|Lance|Dragonite}} to battle.
:''"This lake is full of <sc>{{p|Gyarados}}</sc> but nothing else… So the <sc>{{p|Magikarp}}</sc> are being forced to evolve… Did you come here because of the rumors? You're <player>? I'm <sc>Lance</sc>, a trainer like you. I heard some rumors, so I came to investigate… I saw the way you battled earlier, <player>. I can tell that you're a trainer with considerable skill. If you don't mind, could you help me investigate?"''
*If answered yes
:''"Excellent! It seems that the <sc>Lake</sc>'s <sc>Magikarp</sc> are being forced to evolve. A mysterious radio broadcast coming from <sc>{{to|Mahogany}}</sc> is the cause. I'll be waiting for you, <player>.
*If answered no
:''"Oh… Well, if you change your mind, please help me."''
*If talked to again after answering no
:''"Hm? Are you going to help me?"''
=====[[Mahogany Town]]=====
*After answering yes at Lake of Rage
:''"<sc>{{p|Dragonite}}</sc>, <sc>{{m|Hyper Beam}}</sc>."''
:''"What took, you <player>? Just as I thought, that strange radio signal is coming from here. The stairs are right here. <player>, we should split up to check this place. I'll go first."''
=====[[Team Rocket HQ]]=====
======B2F======
:''"Are you all right? Your <sc>Pokémon</sc> are hurt and tired. Here, give them some of my medicine. <player>, let's give it our best for <sc>Pokémon</sc>."''
*After entering the generator room
:''"Hey! Don't be so selfish. Spread the fun around."'
:''"That did it. We defeated all the <sc>Rockets</sc> here. But I'm concerned about the {{ga|Silver|young guy}} I battled in the process… Sorry, <player>. I saw how well you were doing, so I just hung back. Now all there is left to do is to turn off that odd radio signal. It's this machine that's causing all the problems. I don't see a switch on it… We have no choice. We have to make all the {{p|Electrode}} faint. That should stop this machine from transmitting that strange signal. It's no fault of the <sc>Pokémon</sc>, so it makes me feel guilty. <player>, let's split the job."''
*If player tries to leave his side
:''"Leave this side to me."''
*After defeating all Electrode
:''"That odd signal has finally stopped. The <sc>Lake</sc> should be back to normal. You're the hero! Let me thank you on behalf of all the <sc>Pokémon</sc>. Oh, yes. You should take this. I found it here, but I don't have any need for it. That's <sc>{{m|Whirlpool}}</sc>. Teach it to a <sc>Pokémon</sc> to get across wild water. But keep this in mind. You can use that out of battle only with the <sc>Badge</sc> from <sc>[[Mahogany Gym]]</sc>. <player>… The journey to becoming the <sc>Pokémon Master</sc> is long and difficult. Knowing that, will you keep going? … I see. No, you're right. If you would give up that easily, you would have never chased that dream in the first place. I look forward to seeing you again!"''

===[[Pokémon Masters EX]]===
:''"It takes two password to get into the boss's <!-- it's that way in the game!--> quarters. Those passwords are known only to a few <sc>Rockets</sc>. That <sc>Rocket</sc> there very graciously told me so. <player>, let's go get the passwords."''

Lance, in his {{g|HeartGold and SoulSilver}} design, forms a [[sync pair]] with {{TP|Lance|Dragonite}}, {{TP|Lance|Gyarados}}, {{p|Dragonair}}, and {{p|Kingdra}} in [[Pokémon Masters EX]]. Lance became a playable sync pair on December 26, 2019.
* Before battle
:''"I’ve been waiting for you. <Player>! I knew that you, with your skills, would eventually reach me here. There’s no need for words now. We will battle to determine who is the stronger of the two of us. As the most powerful trainer and as the <sc>Pokémon League Champion</sc>… I, <sc>Lance</sc> the dragon master, accept your challenge!"''
* When defeated
:''"…It’s over. But it’s an odd feeling. I’m not angry that I lost. In fact, I feel happy. Happy that I witnessed the rise of a great new <sc>Champion</sc>!"''
* After being defeated
:''"…Whew. You have become truly powerful, <player>. Your <sc>Pokémon</sc> have responded to your strong and upstanding nature. As a trainer, you will continue to grow strong with your <sc>Pokémon</sc>."''
:''"This is getting to be a bit too noisy… <Player>, could you come with me?"''

Lance first appeared in ''[[PG03|The Challenger]]''. He was first seen talking about {{ga|Blue}}, the first {{pkmn|Trainer}} in a long time to collect eight [[Gym]] [[Badge]]s, with the rest of the [[Kanto]] [[Elite Four]], and he instructed his colleagues to prepare themselves for the upcoming challenger. Later, he was the last of the Elite Four to be challenged by Blue. After a heated battle, Blue's {{p|Blastoise}} defeated Lance's {{p|Dragonite}} off-screen, making Blue the new Pokémon League Champion.
 
Lance reappeared in ''[[PG04|The Lake of Rage]]''. He and {{ga|Ethan}} were seen infiltrating the [[Team Rocket HQ]] in [[Mahogany Town]], destroying the radio wave generator and ruining [[Team Rocket]]'s plans to force Pokémon to evolve.


Lance's first appeared in ''[[EP235|Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution]]''. When [[Team Rocket]] started up an evil scheme at the [[Lake of Rage]], Lance showed up to investigate. He met {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} there, saving the children from some formidable {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s. Ash wanted to help Lance in his mission, but Lance said it was too dangerous.

Team Rocket was trying to investigate the properties of a [[Red Gyarados]] so that they could learn how to force Pokémon to [[Evolution|evolve]]. Lance was able to destroy Team Rocket's machine and blow up their laboratory. Ash was able to calm the Red Gyarados at first, but it continued to go berserk. Finally, Lance caught it to keep it from destroying [[Mahogany Town]].

====History====
|trainer=Lance
====={{MangaArc|Red, Green & Blue}}=====
|pkmn=Dragonite
Lance was briefly seen in ''[[PS040|A Charizard...and a Champion]]'' with his fellow Elite Four, watching the finals of the Pokémon League.
|type1=Dragon
|type2=Flying
|img=Lance Dragonite.png
|epnum=EP235
|epname=Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution

|vaen=Katsuyuki Konishi
|desc={{p|Dragonite}} is Lance's main Pokémon. In addition to battling, he also uses it to fly around. In ''[[EP235|Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution]]'' and ''[[EP236|Rage of Innocence]]'', Dragonite helped Lance stop [[Team Rocket]]. It was also used to help him battle against {{TR|Tyson}}'s two {{p|Fearow}} at the same time, as well as to help Lance capture the [[Red Gyarados]] that was on a rampage at [[Mahogany Town]].  


It also appeared in ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]'' where it helped Lance and {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} to stop the legendary {{pkmn|battle}} between {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}.}}
====={{MangaArc|Yellow}}=====
Lance debuts in [[Vermilion City]] before the start of the Vermilion City Surfing Competition. He took control of the {{p|Dragonair}} that was to be offered as a prize to the winner, then attacked and destroyed Vermilion City, saying he was looking for something. When Yellow came after him, he tried to capture [[Pika]] to please Agatha and Lorelei, but once Pikachu learned {{m|Surf}} he too failed. Before the battle could continue, he mysteriously disappeared.


{{TrainerPoké
He next appeared on [[Cerise Island]] battling [[Blaine]] and Yellow. When Blaine released {{adv|Mewtwo}}, Blaine and Yellow were able to gain the upper hand against Lance's Aerodactyl and his two Dragonair. However, due to Blaine's link with Mewtwo, they could only battle together for about three minutes, and with time running out, Blaine decided to target Lance's Poké Balls so he couldn't call out any other Pokémon and would have to battle with his weakened Pokémon that were already out. He succeeded in destroying the balls, only for Blaine to be knocked unconscious due to Mewtwo's time out being too long. Lance then chuckled to himself, revealing that he had called his Pokémon out of their balls before the battle began.

|pkmn=Gyarados [[File:ShinyBWStar.png]]
|type1=Water

|vaen=Unshō Ishizuka
|desc={{main|Red Gyarados#In the anime|Red Gyarados}}


After being forced to evolve by an experiment of [[Team Rocket]], this Gyarados went rampage around until Lance managed to capture it. It was later used to stop the battle between {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}}.}}
[[File:Lance HGSS Adventures.png|left|thumb|210px|Lance during the ninth chapter]]
During Lance's battle with Yellow, as both of them were equally matched, Lance lured the battle out onto the top of Cerise Island, a volcano. Lance once again gained the upper hand by having his Gyarados and Dragonair make green, red, and blue bubbles so they could not be detected in sunlight. Just when it seemed when Yellow was about to lose, {{adv|Giovanni}} arrived and helped subdue Lance, using his {{p|Rhyhorn}} to create a sandstorm to make the bubbles visible. But this capturing only proved to be part of his plan, as he needed Giovanni's Badge since it was the last Badge he needed for the Badge Energy Amplifier to summon {{DL|Tower duo (Adventures)|Lugia}}, so he lured Giovanni to the middle of the island so the Earth Badge would be automatically ripped from him. The Amplifier would automatically activate, summoning Lugia. Lance wanted Lugia to help accomplish his goals. Still, Yellow's Pokémon could drive Lugia away once they evolved, and Yellow could channel their power into Pika's [[Moves not in the Pokémon games|Megavolt]]. This interested Lance, as he wanted to find out who Lugia's real owner was. It wasn't often that he lost control of dragon-like Pokémon.

Lance disappeared for a while, investigating {{p|Lugia}} and working behind the scenes. As seen in a flashback in ''[[PS159|Returning Pupitar]]'', he gave {{adv|Silver}} advice on how to defeat Team Rocket in [[Johto]], as well as a {{p|Pupitar}}.

{{adv|Silver}} eventually returned Lance's {{p|Pupitar}}, now evolved as a {{p|Tyranitar}}, after awakening from his comatose state following the incident at the [[Lake of Rage]]. Working through Silver, Lance tried to help defeat the [[Masked Man]]. After this was fulfilled, Lance is briefly seen flying on his {{p|Aerodactyl}} watching the horizon during part of {{adv|Professor Oak}}'s speech on the radio. In ''[[PS168|The Last Battle II]]'', it was revealed that he and Clair shared the same grandparents, but Lance's father had moved to [[Viridian City]] and married a woman there.

====={{MangaArc|FireRed & LeafGreen}}=====
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
In ''[[PS287|Secrets from Sneasel]]'', it was revealed that Lance looked into the mind of [[Silver's Sneasel]] for clues regarding Silver's roots, but to no avail.
[[File:Lance Adventures.png|200px|right|thumb|Lance on his {{p|Aerodactyl}}]]
Lance is primarily a villain in [[Pokémon Adventures]]. As the leader of the Elite Four, he wishes to exterminate the human race, save for a few people who he deems to be kind enough to Pokémon. Apparently also from [[Viridian Forest]], Lance was blessed with the powers of the Viridian Forest as {{adv|Yellow}} was. He has the power to telepathically communicate with Pokémon, as well as heal their wounds. Lance also has the ability to control or brainwash any Dragon-type Pokémon, as well as most Pokémon similar to Dragons (such as Aerodactyl or Tyranitar).


He first appears at Vermilion before the start of the Vermilion City Surfing Competition. The {{p|Dragonair}} that was to be offered as a prize to the winner was actually his. He then attacked Vermilion City and destroyed it, saying he was looking for something. When Yellow came after him he tried to capture [[Pika]] to please Agatha and Lorelei but once Pikachu learned Surf he too failed. Before the battle could continue, he mysteriously disappeared.
====={{MangaArc|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}=====
Lance calls Professor Oak to tell him about the newly revived Team Rocket's plan to obtain the [[Mythical Pokémon]], {{p|Arceus}}. He requests that a [[Pokédex holder]] be sent to meet him at the [[Pokéathlon Dome]], so Professor Oak sends {{adv|Gold}}, as he was out of available people. Although he arrives there, Lance never shows up, but his Dragonite attacks the area in an injured frenzy. Gold manages to defeat Dragonite and sets off to discover what happened to its Trainer.


He next appeared on [[Cerise Island]] battling Blaine and Yellow. When Blaine released Mewtwo Blaine and Yellow were able to gain the upper hand against Lance's Aerodactyl and his two Dragonair. However, due to Blaine's link with Mewtwo they could only battle together for about three minutes and with time running out Blaine decided to target Lance's Poké Balls so he couldn't call out any other Pokémon and would have to battle with his weakened Pokémon that were already out. He succeeded in destroying the balls only for Blaine to be knocked unconscious due to Mewtwo's time out being run too long. Lance then chuckled to himself, revealing that he had called his Pokémon out of their balls before the battle even began.
Gold encounters an injured Lance thereafter chasing Arceus to the [[Ruins of Alph]]. Lance reveals that he was ambushed by [[Petrel|someone]] earlier and couldn't meet with him. When Gold tries to calm the rampaging Alpha Pokémon, Lance tells him that Arceus is angry at humanity and will only be stopped by someone who can open their heart to it. Because of this, Lance states that Gold will not connect with Arceus until he can connect with his [[Togebo|own Pokémon]]. Annoyed, Gold sets off to face Arceus anyway and has [[Bugsy]] take care of Lance in the meantime. Before [[Togebo]] leaves, Lance hands it a [[Shiny Stone]], just in case. He also reveals that Gold hadn't connected with his Togebo.


[[File:Lance HGSS Adventures.png|left|thumb|210px|Lance during the ''HGSS'' chapter]]During Lance's battle with Yellow both of them were equally matched, Lance luring the battle out onto the top of Cerise Island, a volcano. Lance then once again gained the upper hand by having his Gyarados and Dragonair make green, red, and blue bubbles so they could not be detected in sunlight. Just when it seemed when Yellow was about to lose, Giovanni arrived and helped subdue Lance, using his {{p|Rhyhorn}} to create a sandstorm to make the bubbles visible. But this capturing only proved to be part of his plan, as he needed Giovanni's Badge since it was the last Badge he needed for the Badge Energy Amplifier to summon Lugia, so he lured Giovanni to the middle of the island so the Earth Badge would be automatically ripped from him and the Amplifier would automatically activate, summoning Lugia. Lance wanted Lugia to help accomplish his goals, but Yellow's Pokémon were able to drive Lugia away once they evolved and Yellow was able to channel their power into Pika's [[Moves not in the Pokémon games|Megavolt]]. This interested Lance, as he wanted to find out who Lugia's real owner was. It wasn't often that he lost control of dragon-like Pokémon.
As Gold continues to battle Arceus, Lance sets off to find someone who can help with the battle. Later, he returns with Giovanni and [[Pryce]] to combat the {{adv|Pokémon of Myth|Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina}} which {{adv|Arceus}} had created on the [[Sinjoh Ruins|Mystri Stage]]. There, Lance faces Palkia while Giovanni battles Giratina, and Pryce battles Dialga. With his Dragonite's ability to redirect its Hyper Beam, Palkia's ability to manipulate space with {{m|Spacial Rend}} is rendered useless as all redirected attacks are sent back to its original target.


Lance disappeared for a while, investigating Lugia and working behind the scenes. He gave {{adv|Silver}} advice on how to defeat Team Rocket in [[Johto]], as well as a Tyranitar (which Silver promptly returned after awakening from his comatose state following the incident at the [[Lake of Rage]]). Working through Silver, Lance tried to help defeat the [[Masked Man]]. After this was fulfilled, Lance is briefly seen flying on his {{p|Aerodactyl}} watching the horizon during part of {{adv|Professor Oak|Oak's}} speech on the radio.
It is later revealed that when Lance went to find help, he arrived at the [[Ilex Forest]], where he heard the voice of Pryce, who was trapped in the crack in time. Upon arriving, he found Giovanni attacking Pryce in a fit of rage. He asks the two men to put aside their differences and help him stop the destruction of Johto. After the battle had ended, Gold asks how a coward like Petrel defeated Lance, who reveals that Petrel defeated him by disguising himself as {{adv|Yellow}}, the person with the same powers and birthplace as him. At the end of the chapter, Giovanni entrusts the training of Silver to Lance and Pryce, his two former teachers, so that he can one day face his son.


The recently started {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}} heavily centers around Lance, or his disappearance, rather, which both {{adv|Gold}} and Silver are assigned to investigate on.

Yellow finds out that Lance was responsible for this and battles his Dragonair and loses. Lance used two of his Dragonair to shield himself from the lava at Mt. Cerise by using bubbles. Yellow is once again in his clutches as they, along with Gyarados were responsible for the shaking of the mountain. The four Dragonair each serve a purpose: the first is used to cross the seas and skies, the second changes the direction of energy blasts, the third is used to control the weather (which is used in Lance's first fight against Yellow), and the fourth is used to combine its attack and fight the opponents. Lance usually uses only the first two when fighting opponents, the third against stronger ones, and all four only a very few times.

Lance appears in ''[[PM036|Space Havoc!!]]'' as a regular Elite Four member. {{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}} meets him while on his trip in outer space. Lance gives Red three tests for him to handle. While Red did well on the first two, Lance managed to get on the space shuttle while Red and the gang were on. After the shuttle got destroyed, Lance flew away on his Dragonite while {{TP|Red|Clefairy}} had to deal with an upset {{OBP|Professor Oak|Pocket Monsters}}.
 
Lance reappeared in ''[[PM038|The Final Battle!!]]'' where he destroyed a village. The villagers ask Red and his Pokémon to defeat Lance. During the match, Clefairy was still no match for his Dragonite, even the weapons he threw. However, when Lance was about to get beaten, Dragonite reveals how he met Lance, but the story is later found out to be a lie, and Lance runs off with his Dragonite, with Red and his Pokémon chasing him from behind.

==Trivia==
[[File:Lance Dragonite Barrier Generation I.png|200px|thumb|Lance's Dragonite using {{m|Barrier}} in {{game|Red and Blue|s}}]]
[[File:Lance Dragonite Barrier RGB.png|frame|Lance's Dragonite using {{m|Barrier}} in {{game3|Red and Green|Red, Green|s}}, and {{game3|Red and Blue|Blue|s}}]]
* In the games, Lance is depicted as being from [[Blackthorn City]], but the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga depicts Lance as being from [[Viridian Forest]] (albeit of Blackthorn descent).
[[File:Lance Aerodactyl Rock Slide GSC.png|frame|Lance's Aerodactyl using {{m|Rock Slide}} in {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}]]
* Lance has battles with two illegal Pokémon: the {{p|Dragonite}} that knows {{m|Barrier}} that he uses in {{v2|Red and Blue|s}} and the {{p|Aerodactyl}} that knows {{m|Rock Slide}} that he uses in {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}.
* As of [[Generation VII]], Lance uses the fewest Pokémon of his specialty type out of any Elite Four member in any one battle, using only one Dragon-type, his {{TP|Lance|Dragonite}}, in his first battle with the player. This distinction was previously held by [[Flint]] of the [[Sinnoh]] [[Elite Four]] who only used two Fire-type Pokémon in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.
* Starting in {{game|Yellow}}, Lance has red hair, while a card depicting him in {{OBP|Monopoly: Pokémon Edition|1999}} shows artwork of him with purple hair. This is probably due to the fact that the board game was made before Yellow was released.
* Lance has two Pokémon with moves they [[Game move errors|cannot normally learn]]: the {{p|Dragonite}} that knows {{m|Barrier}} that he uses in {{game3|Red and Green|Red, Green|s}}, and {{game3|Red and Blue|Blue|s}}, as well as the {{p|Aerodactyl}} that knows {{m|Rock Slide}} that he uses in {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, while Aerodactyl only learns Rock Slide since [[Generation III]].
* Though his type theme is Dragon Pokémon, in Generation II, only three of his Pokémon are actually of the Dragon type; all of them Dragonite. All six of his Pokémon have {{t|Flying}} as their secondary type.
** In 2016, a Dragonite with Barrier was released to participants of the "Kanto Classic" Wi-Fi tournament to commemorate this.
** Additionally, the non-Dragon-type Pokémon used by Lance in the main series ({{p|Gyarados}}, {{p|Aerodactyl}} and {{p|Charizard}}) are all part Flying-type, as well as partially or fully resembling dragons.
* In Round 2 of the Japanese version of [[Pokémon Stadium 2]], Lance's {{p|Feraligatr}} and {{p|Tyranitar}} both hold [[Quick Claw]]s, despite the Item Clause being in effect in battles with him. The international versions correct this by having Feraligatr hold a [[Mystic Water]] instead.
* Lance is the only member of the Johto Elite Four who, on the second time through, still does not have a team of only his type, with Charizard and Gyarados not being Dragon-types.
* In every game in which he is fought except for {{B2W2}}, Lance uses at least one Pokémon that knows the move {{m|Hyper Beam}} during both his initial fight and his rematch.
** Additionally, both of them are part Flying-type Pokémon.
** In addition to Black 2 and White 2, [[Pokémon Stadium]] and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} are the only other games in which Hyper Beam is not known by every member of Lance's party.
[[File:Lance Team Magma.png|right|200px|thumb|Lance disguised as a Team Magma Grunt]]
* Starting in {{game|Yellow}}, Lance has red hair, while a card depicting him in {{OBP|Monopoly: Pokémon Edition|1999}}, which was made prior to Yellow, shows artwork of him with purple hair.
* In the {{Pkmn|anime}}, Lance disguised himself as a member of a [[villainous team]] twice, as a {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}} in ''[[EP235|Talkin' Bout an Evolution]]'', and later as a {{tc|Team Magma Grunt}} in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]''.
* With the exception of {{B2W2}}, all of Lance's teams feature just as many if not more {{type|Flying}} Pokémon, despite Lance being a {{type|Dragon}} specialist.
* Lance is the only Trainer the {{player}} can battle with in a double battle ([[Team Rocket HQ]]), against in a double battle ([[Dragon's Den]]), and against in a single battle (as {{pkmn|Champion}}) so far. Furthermore, the Tag Battle with him against [[Ariana]] and a Grunt can be seen parallel to the Tag Battle the player has with [[Steven Stone]] in {{game|Emerald}} against [[Maxie]] and [[Tabitha]].
* Lance is the only Trainer the {{player}} can battle as a partner in a Double Battle ([[Team Rocket HQ]]), against in a Double Battle ([[Dragon's Den]]), and against in a Single Battle (as {{pkmn|Champion}}).
* Despite taking place three years later, Lance's Pokémon are at a lower level in Generation II than they were in Generation I. The same thing occurs with [[Bruno]].
* In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] {{pkmn|manga}}, Lance and the [[Elite Four]]'s motivations are similar to the plans of [[N]] and [[Team Plasma]]. Both pretend to summon a Legendary Pokémon ({{p|Lugia}} or {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}} respectively) in order to create a utopia for Pokémon.
* Lance appears as an opponent in [[Pokémon Puzzle Challenge]]. He uses a Dragonite in battle.
* Lance is the only character that appears in the [[Pokémon World Tournament]] who is or used to be an Elite Four member.
* From Generations {{Gen|I}} to {{Gen|III}}, all of his Pokémon know {{m|Hyper Beam}}. This was no longer the case in [[Generation IV]], possibly because Hyper Beam was changed to a [[special move]].  
** Lance is also the only Champion in the Pokémon World Tournament who can be battled [[Challenge the Champion Lance!|outside]] the [[Champions Tournament]].
* Lance, [[Koga]], [[Bruno]] and [[Caitlin]] are the only Elite Four members who have appeared in more than one generation (excluding [[remake]]s).
* In Lance's {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} [[rematch]], each of his Pokémon has a double weakness.
** Lance is the only member of the Elite Four who has appeared in all generations; he has appeared in Generations I & III as a member of the Elite Four, and in Generations II, IV, and V as a Champion.
** Additionally, his initial Champion team and his team during his [[Dragon's Den]] [[Multi Battle]] match has more Flying-types than Dragon-types, despite specializing in Dragon-type Pokémon.
* Excluding [[remake]]s, Lance is the only Champion that was introduced in a previous generation, and the only Champion to use only Pokémon introduced in a previous generation.
* Including spin-off games, Lance has used the most [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]] in all his teams throughout the games, having used {{p|Dragonite}}, {{p|Tyranitar}}, {{p|Salamence}}, {{p|Garchomp}}, and {{p|Hydreigon}}.
* Lance's Gyarados, Charizard and Dragonite can appear to level down, if the player decides to battle him and [[Clair]] in [[Dragon's Den]] before collecting all 16 Badges and the Elite Four upgrading their teams in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, as they are level 68 - 75 in the [[Tag Battle]] and are level 48 - 50 when re-challenged at the [[Indigo League]].
* In HeartGold and SoulSilver, in the [[Mahogany Town]] souvenir store, Lance commands his {{TP|Lance|Dragonite}} to use {{m|Hyper Beam}}, yet the attack Dragonite uses more closely resembles {{m|Giga Impact}}.
* In the manga, Lance and the [[Elite Four]]'s motivations are similar to the plans of [[N]] and [[Team Plasma]]. Both pretend to summon a legendary Pokémon ({{p|Lugia}} or {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}} respectively) in order to create an utopia for Pokémon.
* In [[Generation IV]], all of his Pokémon except {{p|Aerodactyl}} suffer double weakness. {{p|Salamence}}, {{p|Altaria}}, {{p|Garchomp}}, and {{p|Dragonite}} suffer double weakness against {{t|Ice}} type, {{p|Gyarados}} for {{t|Electric}} type, and {{p|Charizard}} with {{t|Rock}} type.

Lance (Japanese: ワタル Wataru) is a Dragon-type Trainer, a member of the Indigo Elite Four in Generations I, III, and VII, and the Pokémon Champion of the Indigo Plateau in Generations II and IV.

In the core series games

Character profile

In Generations I, III, and VII, Lance is the fourth and final member of the Kanto Elite Four. He must be defeated before facing BlueRBYFRLG/TracePE, the Pokémon League Champion. In Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, it is revealed he has a Key Stone and Charizardite X, which he uses in rematches against the player after they become Champion. By the Generation II and IV games, he has proceeded to become Pokémon League Champion, due to Red taking a leave of absence from his position to continue his training at Mt. Silver, and leaving Lance to take Red's place as Champion.

He raises Dragon-type Pokémon and Pokémon that are dragon-like in appearance, which are both hard to catch and raise, and prefers the superiority of Dragon-type Pokémon, believing them to be virtually indestructible.

Known as a cool and heroic Trainer, Lance has a large fan following and seems to like capes, as he is often seen buying identical capes at the Celadon Department Store.

Lance's grandfather is the elder of a famous clan of Dragon Masters. Clair is his cousin, and his hometown is Blackthorn City.

In the Generation II games and their remakes, the player first encounters Lance at the Lake of Rage, where he watches the player battle the Red Gyarados. Afterwards, he appears in Mahogany Town to help the player fight Team Rocket at the Team Rocket HQ. Lance rewards the player with the HM for Whirlpool for helping him put an end to Team Rocket's sinister plans. In the remakes, he also teams up with the player in a Multi Battle against Ariana during these events. In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, he and Clair can also be faced in another Multi Battle at Dragon's Den during the post-game.

In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, Lance represents Johto at the Pokémon World Tournament, taking part in the Champions Tournament.

In Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon, Professor Kukui reveals that he challenged Lance at one point, with Pokémon Masters EX specifying that Lance was the Indigo League Champion at that time. The end result of their battle is unknown, however.

Appearance

Lance is often depicted as a tall young man with athletic build, carmine-colored spiky hair and brown eyes. He often seen wearing a cape in all of his outfits. In Generation I, he wears a black shirt and a red jacket over it. On his shoulders is a cape that is red on the outside and black in the inside. He wears black jeans with red lines and a belt with a gold dragon-shaped buckle. He also wears red boots

In Generation II, Lance wears a black suit with red lines on them and a black-colored belt. His cape is now black on the outside and red inside. He wears black boots with red lines.

In Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, Lance has blue eyes and wears a blue suit with orange color around his sleeves and on the chest area. He also wears a dark belt around his waist, some brown boots with orange heels, and a brown cloak, which is red on the inside.

In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, Lance wears a medieval-looking navy blue tunic with red-orange trim, a brown belt around his waist, and large black boots with orange two rings around the top of each boot. The cuffs of his long sleeves are black with orange zigzagging trim separating the cuff from the navy blue part of the sleeve. He sports a long, flowing cape around his neck which is black on the outside and crimson red on the inside.

History

Red, Green & Blue arc

Lance was briefly seen in A Charizard...and a Champion with his fellow Elite Four, watching the finals of the Pokémon League.

Yellow arc

Lance debuts in Vermilion City before the start of the Vermilion City Surfing Competition. He took control of the Dragonair that was to be offered as a prize to the winner, then attacked and destroyed Vermilion City, saying he was looking for something. When Yellow came after him, he tried to capture Pika to please Agatha and Lorelei, but once Pikachu learned Surf he too failed. Before the battle could continue, he mysteriously disappeared.

He next appeared on Cerise Island battling Blaine and Yellow. When Blaine released Mewtwo, Blaine and Yellow were able to gain the upper hand against Lance's Aerodactyl and his two Dragonair. However, due to Blaine's link with Mewtwo, they could only battle together for about three minutes, and with time running out, Blaine decided to target Lance's Poké Balls so he couldn't call out any other Pokémon and would have to battle with his weakened Pokémon that were already out. He succeeded in destroying the balls, only for Blaine to be knocked unconscious due to Mewtwo's time out being too long. Lance then chuckled to himself, revealing that he had called his Pokémon out of their balls before the battle began.

Lance during the ninth chapter

During Lance's battle with Yellow, as both of them were equally matched, Lance lured the battle out onto the top of Cerise Island, a volcano. Lance once again gained the upper hand by having his Gyarados and Dragonair make green, red, and blue bubbles so they could not be detected in sunlight. Just when it seemed when Yellow was about to lose, Giovanni arrived and helped subdue Lance, using his Rhyhorn to create a sandstorm to make the bubbles visible. But this capturing only proved to be part of his plan, as he needed Giovanni's Badge since it was the last Badge he needed for the Badge Energy Amplifier to summon Lugia, so he lured Giovanni to the middle of the island so the Earth Badge would be automatically ripped from him. The Amplifier would automatically activate, summoning Lugia. Lance wanted Lugia to help accomplish his goals. Still, Yellow's Pokémon could drive Lugia away once they evolved, and Yellow could channel their power into Pika's Megavolt. This interested Lance, as he wanted to find out who Lugia's real owner was. It wasn't often that he lost control of dragon-like Pokémon.

Prior to Gold, Silver & Crystal arc

Lance disappeared for a while, investigating Lugia and working behind the scenes. As seen in a flashback in Returning Pupitar, he gave Silver advice on how to defeat Team Rocket in Johto, as well as a Pupitar.

Gold, Silver & Crystal arc

Silver eventually returned Lance's Pupitar, now evolved as a Tyranitar, after awakening from his comatose state following the incident at the Lake of Rage. Working through Silver, Lance tried to help defeat the Masked Man. After this was fulfilled, Lance is briefly seen flying on his Aerodactyl watching the horizon during part of Professor Oak's speech on the radio. In The Last Battle II, it was revealed that he and Clair shared the same grandparents, but Lance's father had moved to Viridian City and married a woman there.

FireRed & LeafGreen arc

In Secrets from Sneasel, it was revealed that Lance looked into the mind of Silver's Sneasel for clues regarding Silver's roots, but to no avail.

HeartGold & SoulSilver arc

Lance calls Professor Oak to tell him about the newly revived Team Rocket's plan to obtain the Mythical Pokémon, Arceus. He requests that a Pokédex holder be sent to meet him at the Pokéathlon Dome, so Professor Oak sends Gold, as he was out of available people. Although he arrives there, Lance never shows up, but his Dragonite attacks the area in an injured frenzy. Gold manages to defeat Dragonite and sets off to discover what happened to its Trainer.

Gold encounters an injured Lance thereafter chasing Arceus to the Ruins of Alph. Lance reveals that he was ambushed by someone earlier and couldn't meet with him. When Gold tries to calm the rampaging Alpha Pokémon, Lance tells him that Arceus is angry at humanity and will only be stopped by someone who can open their heart to it. Because of this, Lance states that Gold will not connect with Arceus until he can connect with his own Pokémon. Annoyed, Gold sets off to face Arceus anyway and has Bugsy take care of Lance in the meantime. Before Togebo leaves, Lance hands it a Shiny Stone, just in case. He also reveals that Gold hadn't connected with his Togebo.

As Gold continues to battle Arceus, Lance sets off to find someone who can help with the battle. Later, he returns with Giovanni and Pryce to combat the Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina which Arceus had created on the Mystri Stage. There, Lance faces Palkia while Giovanni battles Giratina, and Pryce battles Dialga. With his Dragonite's ability to redirect its Hyper Beam, Palkia's ability to manipulate space with Spacial Rend is rendered useless as all redirected attacks are sent back to its original target.

It is later revealed that when Lance went to find help, he arrived at the Ilex Forest, where he heard the voice of Pryce, who was trapped in the crack in time. Upon arriving, he found Giovanni attacking Pryce in a fit of rage. He asks the two men to put aside their differences and help him stop the destruction of Johto. After the battle had ended, Gold asks how a coward like Petrel defeated Lance, who reveals that Petrel defeated him by disguising himself as Yellow, the person with the same powers and birthplace as him. At the end of the chapter, Giovanni entrusts the training of Silver to Lance and Pryce, his two former teachers, so that he can one day face his son.

Character

Lance is primarily a villain. As the leader of the Elite Four, he wishes to exterminate the human race, save for a few people he deems to be kind enough to Pokémon. Apparently, also from Viridian Forest, Lance was blessed with the powers of the Viridian Forest, just like Yellow was. Lance has the power to communicate with Pokémon and heal their wounds telepathically. Lance also has the ability to control or brainwash any Dragon-type Pokémon, as well as most Pokémon similar to Dragons (such as Aerodactyl or Tyranitar).

Pokémon

This listing is for Lance's Pokémon in the Pokémon Adventures manga:

On hand
Dratini → Dragonair → Dragonite
Lance's Dragonite
Main article: Lance's Dragonite

Dragonite was raised as a Dragonair that evolved from a Dratini, which he owned since childhood. It is considered to be Lance's strongest Pokémon and boasts a hide so thick that it can withstand continued exposure to the heat of lava (and regular attacks are all ineffective).

Magikarp → Gyarados
Lance's Magikarp
Lance's Gyarados
Main article: Lance's Gyarados

Gyarados was used to shield Lance from the lava on Cerise Island using its bubbles. It evolved from a Magikarp.

Dragonair (×2) ♂
Lance's Dragonair

These Dragonair are Lance's mainly-used ones in his Dragonair army. One of them first appeared in a Surfing Contest as a prize. Lance brainwashes the Dragonair during the contest, and it starts launching Whirlpools at the surfers, bringing them down to the sea. Yellow finds out that Lance was responsible for this and battles his Dragonair and loses. Lance used these Dragonair to shield himself from the lava on Cerise Island by using bubbles. Yellow is once again in his clutches as they, along with Gyarados, were responsible for the shaking of the mountain. The two Dragonair have four unique abilities: the first is to cross the seas and skies, the second is changing the direction of energy blasts, the third is controlling the weather (which is used in Lance's first fight against Yellow), and the fourth is combining their attacks. Lance usually uses only the first two when fighting opponents, the third against stronger ones, and all four only a few times.

Dragonair's known moves are Hyper Beam, Wrap, Dragon Rage, Agility, Bubble Beam, Slam, and Surf*, and their Ability is Shed Skin.

Aerodactyl
Lance's Aerodactyl

Lance's Aerodactyl is mostly used for air transportation. It was used in the final battle against Yellow's Pokémon, mostly for carrying Lance while he issued commands to the rest of his Pokémon.

Aerodactyl's known moves are Hyper Beam, Supersonic, and Wing Attack.

Pupitar → Tyranitar ♂
Lance's Pupitar
Lance's Tyranitar

Lance gave his Tyranitar to Silver when he was a Pupitar. Tyranitar made his first official appearance when he was battling Gold and easily defeating Gold's entire team until he got subdued by Togebo's Double-Edge. After battling Lugia at the Whirl Islands, Tyranitar was returned to Lance as Silver was not able to fully control him.

Tyranitar's only known move is Sandstorm, his Ability is Sand Stream as a Tyranitar and Shed Skin as a Pupitar. He has a Quirky nature.

Dragonair (multiple)
Lance's other Dragonair

These Dragonair are Lance's Dragon army that are used to attack the mainlands of Kanto. They are first seen attacking Cinnabar Gym while Miles and Evan are inside.

None of Dragonair's moves are known.

Released
Lugia
Lance's Lugia
Main article: Tower duo (Adventures)

Lance summoned Lugia to complete his plans of creating a utopia for Pokémon where humans that abuse Pokémon or destroy their habitats would be no more. However, this plan did not work as Lance was eventually beaten, and the Badge Amplifier energy Lugia had absorbed transferred to the soils of mainland Kanto, where it would spread life instead of bringing about death. As a result, it fled from Lance.

It was seen again in the Whirl Islands where it was on a rampage after being controlled by the Masked Man, who caught it just as Gold, Silver, and Crystal were about to. Using its Aeroblast with Ho-Oh's Sacred Fire to demolish the league, the two remained nearly unstoppable until Suicune, Entei, and Raikou appeared alongside their new Trainers to fight the villain and free them. Eventually, after much turmoil, Lugia once again fled along with Ho-Oh.

Status unknown
Horsea
Lance's Horsea

Horsea was seen in a flashback of Lance's and Clair's childhood.

None of Horsea's moves are known.

After finding out that Ariana and Petrel were responsible for the incident in the Lake of Rage, Lance has a Tag Battle with them with Jō as his partner. Lance and Jō manage to defeat them with Dragonite's Twister. Lance is revealed to become the Champion of the Pokémon League and battles Jō, and Jō single-handedly defeats him with Totodile.

Lance appears in Space Havoc!! as a regular Elite Four member. Red meets him while on his trip in outer space. Lance gives Red three tests for him to handle. While Red did well on the first two, Lance managed to get on the space shuttle while Red and the gang were on. After the shuttle got destroyed, Lance flew away on his Dragonite while Clefairy had to deal with an upset Professor Oak.

Lance reappeared in The Final Battle!! where he destroyed a village. The villagers ask Red and his Pokémon to defeat Lance. During the match, Clefairy was still no match for his Dragonite, even the weapons he threw. However, when Lance was about to get beaten, Dragonite reveals how he met Lance, but the story is later found out to be a lie, and Lance runs off with his Dragonite, with Red and his Pokémon chasing him from behind.

Main article: Lance's Gyarados

Gyarados was the first test that Red and the gang had to handle. It popped out of a pool of water when Lance commanded it to do so.

Aerodactyl
Lance's Aerodactyl

Aerodactyl was the second test that Red and the gang had to handle. It appeared when Red went inside a museum, slapping Clefairy using its wing, which sent him bouncing around. Aerodactyl was very fast as it evaded an attack coming from Clefairy; however, Clefairy decided to trick Aerodactyl by luring it into a buffet. After Aerodactyl got full, it could not fly, and one punch coming from Clefairy sent it packing afterward.

None of Aerodactyl's moves are known.
