'''Giant Pokémon''', | :''Not to be confused with [[gigantic Pokémon]]''. | ||
'''Giant Pokémon''' are a recurring theme in the [[Pokémon world]]. In the broadest sense, they are Pokémon who are much larger than is typical for their [[Pokémon (species)|species]]. | |||
Notable groups of giant Pokémon include [[Totem Pokémon]], [[alpha Pokémon]], [[noble Pokémon]], the {{hi|Ride Pokémon}} of [[Hisui]], and [[Titan Pokémon]]. Additionally, some Pokémon can become giant temporarily through processes such as [[Dynamax]] or [[Gigantamax]]. | |||
Note that this page is primarily concerned with large organic Pokémon. Giant artificial structures or robots made in the shape of Pokémon, such as [[Team Rocket's mechas]] or the robots at [[Pokémon Land]] in ''[[EP017|Island of the Giant Pokémon]]'', are therefore not listed here. | |||
==In the core series games== | |||
[[File:Path of Legends artwork.png|thumb|250px|A giant Titan {{p|Klawf}} in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]] | |||
{{main|Size and weight variation}} | |||
===Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver=== | |||
In {{game5|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, although no giant Pokémon make a direct appearance, a legend stated that a 100-foot-tall {{p|Bellsprout}} formed the basis for the central pillar of [[Sprout Tower]]. | |||
In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, southeast of the [[Lake of Rage]] is a house where a [[Fishing Brothers|Fishing Guru]] resides. His greatest dream is to see the world's largest Magikarp, and he regularly measures those brought to him in order to realize it. If he is shown a Magikarp, he will calculate its size and give the player an [[Elixir]] if it is bigger than the largest one he had seen before. Initially, this record is 3'6" and held by [[Johto Route 32#Trainers|Ralph]]. | |||
===Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire=== | |||
In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s|Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire}}, {{pkmn|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire}}, there are two men living in [[Sootopolis City]] who want the player to bring them large specimens of {{p|Barboach}} and {{p|Shroomish}}. Likewise, in {{game|Emerald}}, the same two men want the player to bring them large specimens of {{p|Lotad}} and {{p|Seedot}}. | |||
===Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen=== | |||
In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, on {{rt|12|Kanto}} lives the youngest of the [[Fishing Brothers]] who, after giving the player the [[Super Rod]], requests to see any large {{p|Magikarp}} that the player catches. If the player shows him a Magikarp, he will measure its size and reward the player with a [[Net Ball]]. In a house at the northern end of the [[Water Path]], there is a woman who likes big {{p|Heracross}} and wishes to see the "Ultimate Horn". If the player shows her a Heracross, she will measure its size and reward the player with a [[Nest Ball]]. | |||
===Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum=== | |||
In {{game2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}, on {{rt|222|Sinnoh}} lives a {{tc|Fisherman}} who dreams that a Trainer would bring him a giant {{p|Remoraid}}, and will give a Net Ball if shown a larger Remoraid than the one listed. | |||
===Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon=== | |||
In {{game4|SMUSUM}}, [[Totem Pokémon]] are a type of [[variant Pokémon]] that appear at the end of [[Alola]]'s [[island challenge|island trials]]. Due to the influence of the energy emanated from [[Ultra Wormhole]]s, these Pokémon appear larger and weigh approximately two to four times as much as other Pokémon of the same species. In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, the player can obtain Pokémon {{DL|Totem Pokémon|Totem-sized Pokémon|the size of Totems}} by collecting [[Totem Sticker]]s and presenting them to [[Samson Oak]] at [[Heahea Beach]]. | |||
===Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!=== | |||
In {{LGPE}}, Pokémon have size variations; Pokémon that are size L and XL are larger than average, though these size differences are not visible. | |||
===Pokémon Sword and Shield=== | |||
In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, a phenomenon known as [[Dynamax]] can make a Pokémon temporarily grow to giant size, upgrading its moves into [[Max Move]]s in the process. Some Pokémon can undergo a related process called [[Gigantamax]], which additionally changes their appearance. | |||
===Pokémon Legends: Arceus=== | |||
In {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, there is a variation of Pokémon known as [[alpha Pokémon]]. These Pokémon are known to be larger, stronger, and more aggressive than normal Pokémon and have red eyes. The [[noble Pokémon]] (particularly {{p|Avalugg}}) and {{hi|Ride Pokémon}} that the player encounters as part of the game's story are also bigger than other Pokémon of their kin. Additionally, all Pokémon come in various sizes, with some being dramatically larger than others of their species. | |||
===Pokémon Scarlet and Violet=== | |||
In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, there is a variation of Pokémon known as [[Titan Pokémon]] that are considerably larger and stronger than normal Pokémon. There are also five vehicles called [[Starmobile]]s that the player battles during the ★ Starfall Street ★ storyline which are each installed with {{p|Revavroom}} that are larger than others of their species. Additionally, Pokémon once again come in a range of sizes, with some being significantly larger than average. | |||
==In the spin-off games== | |||
===Hey You, Pikachu!=== | |||
In [[Hey You, Pikachu!]] one of the activities involves {{p|Pikachu}} [[fishing]], and it is possible to fish Pokémon much larger than average. There is also an {{p|Oddish}} that, instead of evolving, grows larger when it is watered, until it is at least ten times Pikachu's size. | |||
===Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs=== | |||
In {{g|Ranger: Guardian Signs}}, {{Ra|Hocus}} attacks the player with a giant {{p|Crobat}} when he is faced in the [[Sky Fortress]]. | |||
===Super Smash Bros. series=== | |||
In the [[Super Smash Bros. series]], the player can temporarily be enlarged by eating the {{sbw|Super Mushroom}}. Additionally, {{SSB|Jigglypuff}}'s {{sbw|Final Smash}}, Puff Up, can make Jigglypuff temporarily gigantic, plus knocking out any opponent near it. | |||
===Pokémon GO=== | |||
In {{g|GO}}, {{GO|Raid Battle|Raid Bosses}} are giant Pokémon with stats that are higher than that of regular Pokémon. Once defeated, they will shrink down to normal size and can be captured. Also, as in recent core series games, Pokémon vary in size; Pokémon that are sizes XL and XXL are significantly larger than average for their species. | |||
===Pokemon Sleep=== | |||
In {{g|Sleep}}, each {{p|Snorlax}} can grow to be quite large as it is raised throughout the week. Snorlax all start at the same size while at Normal ranking, growing larger twice as they reach Great and Ultra, finally reaching their maximum size when they achieve the Master ranking. | |||
===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series=== | |||
In the {{g|Mystery Dungeon series}} prior to {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity}}, each species of Pokémon is assigned a fixed [[body size]] from 0 to 4. When taking a team into a dungeon, the combined body size of the Pokémon in the team may not exceed a certain amount (at most of any dungeon, 6). Note that certain dungeons may restrict this further, and may also restrict the sheer number of Pokémon allowed in the dungeon. | |||
In {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity}}, the body size system was revised: each Pokémon species is either of standard size (occupying one tile), or is a [[gigantic Pokémon]] (occupying nine tiles). Gigantic Pokémon have the additional trait of longer reach with their attacks, and some moves will have completely-different effects when used by a gigantic Pokémon. | |||
In {{g|Super Mystery Dungeon}}, gigantic Pokémon became recruitable, with the same traits as they had in Gates to Infinity. However, only up to one Gigantic Pokémon may be included in a team when entering a dungeon. This restriction was removed in {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX}}. | |||

Latest revision as of 10:48, 3 September 2024
- Not to be confused with gigantic Pokémon.
Giant Pokémon are a recurring theme in the Pokémon world. In the broadest sense, they are Pokémon who are much larger than is typical for their species.
Notable groups of giant Pokémon include Totem Pokémon, alpha Pokémon, noble Pokémon, the Ride Pokémon of Hisui, and Titan Pokémon. Additionally, some Pokémon can become giant temporarily through processes such as Dynamax or Gigantamax.
Note that this page is primarily concerned with large organic Pokémon. Giant artificial structures or robots made in the shape of Pokémon, such as Team Rocket's mechas or the robots at Pokémon Land in Island of the Giant Pokémon, are therefore not listed here.
In the core series games
- Main article: Size and weight variation
Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver
In Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver, although no giant Pokémon make a direct appearance, a legend stated that a 100-foot-tall Bellsprout formed the basis for the central pillar of Sprout Tower.
In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, southeast of the Lake of Rage is a house where a Fishing Guru resides. His greatest dream is to see the world's largest Magikarp, and he regularly measures those brought to him in order to realize it. If he is shown a Magikarp, he will calculate its size and give the player an Elixir if it is bigger than the largest one he had seen before. Initially, this record is 3'6" and held by Ralph.
Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire
In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire, there are two men living in Sootopolis City who want the player to bring them large specimens of Barboach and Shroomish. Likewise, in Pokémon Emerald, the same two men want the player to bring them large specimens of Lotad and Seedot.
Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen
In Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, on Route 12 lives the youngest of the Fishing Brothers who, after giving the player the Super Rod, requests to see any large Magikarp that the player catches. If the player shows him a Magikarp, he will measure its size and reward the player with a Net Ball. In a house at the northern end of the Water Path, there is a woman who likes big Heracross and wishes to see the "Ultimate Horn". If the player shows her a Heracross, she will measure its size and reward the player with a Nest Ball.
Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum
In Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, on Route 222 lives a Fisherman who dreams that a Trainer would bring him a giant Remoraid, and will give a Net Ball if shown a larger Remoraid than the one listed.
Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon
In Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon, Totem Pokémon are a type of variant Pokémon that appear at the end of Alola's island trials. Due to the influence of the energy emanated from Ultra Wormholes, these Pokémon appear larger and weigh approximately two to four times as much as other Pokémon of the same species. In Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, the player can obtain Pokémon the size of Totems by collecting Totem Stickers and presenting them to Samson Oak at Heahea Beach.
Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!
In Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, Pokémon have size variations; Pokémon that are size L and XL are larger than average, though these size differences are not visible.
Pokémon Sword and Shield
In Pokémon Sword and Shield, a phenomenon known as Dynamax can make a Pokémon temporarily grow to giant size, upgrading its moves into Max Moves in the process. Some Pokémon can undergo a related process called Gigantamax, which additionally changes their appearance.
Pokémon Legends: Arceus
In Pokémon Legends: Arceus, there is a variation of Pokémon known as alpha Pokémon. These Pokémon are known to be larger, stronger, and more aggressive than normal Pokémon and have red eyes. The noble Pokémon (particularly Avalugg) and Ride Pokémon that the player encounters as part of the game's story are also bigger than other Pokémon of their kin. Additionally, all Pokémon come in various sizes, with some being dramatically larger than others of their species.
Pokémon Scarlet and Violet
In Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, there is a variation of Pokémon known as Titan Pokémon that are considerably larger and stronger than normal Pokémon. There are also five vehicles called Starmobiles that the player battles during the ★ Starfall Street ★ storyline which are each installed with Revavroom that are larger than others of their species. Additionally, Pokémon once again come in a range of sizes, with some being significantly larger than average.
In the spin-off games
Hey You, Pikachu!
In Hey You, Pikachu! one of the activities involves Pikachu fishing, and it is possible to fish Pokémon much larger than average. There is also an Oddish that, instead of evolving, grows larger when it is watered, until it is at least ten times Pikachu's size.
Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs
In Pokémon Ranger: Guardian Signs, Hocus attacks the player with a giant Crobat when he is faced in the Sky Fortress.
Super Smash Bros. series
In the Super Smash Bros. series, the player can temporarily be enlarged by eating the Super Mushroom. Additionally, Jigglypuff's Final Smash, Puff Up, can make Jigglypuff temporarily gigantic, plus knocking out any opponent near it.
Pokémon GO
In Pokémon GO, Raid Bosses are giant Pokémon with stats that are higher than that of regular Pokémon. Once defeated, they will shrink down to normal size and can be captured. Also, as in recent core series games, Pokémon vary in size; Pokémon that are sizes XL and XXL are significantly larger than average for their species.
Pokemon Sleep
In Pokémon Sleep, each Snorlax can grow to be quite large as it is raised throughout the week. Snorlax all start at the same size while at Normal ranking, growing larger twice as they reach Great and Ultra, finally reaching their maximum size when they achieve the Master ranking.
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series
In the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series prior to Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity, each species of Pokémon is assigned a fixed body size from 0 to 4. When taking a team into a dungeon, the combined body size of the Pokémon in the team may not exceed a certain amount (at most of any dungeon, 6). Note that certain dungeons may restrict this further, and may also restrict the sheer number of Pokémon allowed in the dungeon.
In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity, the body size system was revised: each Pokémon species is either of standard size (occupying one tile), or is a gigantic Pokémon (occupying nine tiles). Gigantic Pokémon have the additional trait of longer reach with their attacks, and some moves will have completely-different effects when used by a gigantic Pokémon.
In Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon, gigantic Pokémon became recruitable, with the same traits as they had in Gates to Infinity. However, only up to one Gigantic Pokémon may be included in a team when entering a dungeon. This restriction was removed in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX.
