Misty's Wingull

**Wingull** is Misty's third Pokémon and was given to her by the Cerulean City Nurse Joy. Prior to joining up with Ash, Wingull was the Misty's main bug deterrent method.

## History

### The New Timeline (Past)

Nurse Joy from Cerulean City came into the possession of Wingull and started looking for a good trainer to take care of her. Eventually it was decided to give Wingull to Misty.

Months later Wingull was used in a battle against Damian, and defeated his Charmander. Wingull would have also beaten his Weepinbell had the other trainer not decided to try to cheat by bringing out his Tentacruel to fight two against one.

### Starting Arc

Misty brought Wingull out when she and Ash were traveling through Viridian Forest in order to keep the Bug-types away.

### Pewter Arc

Misty used Wingull in one of her battles of the mini tournament she took part in at the Pewter City Battle Club. Wingull faced off against a Paras and was easily able to win the battle.

### Rota Arc

Misty used Wingull in a test battle against Ash's Aipom where Ash was trying to figure out the telepathy part of his bloodline. Misty also used this battle as a way to take revenge against the Pokémon that had stolen their food supplies earlier. This battle was interrupted by a Bulbasaur and a girl named Melanie who got them to stop as they were trespassing on their property.

### Cerulean Arc

Wingull alongside all of Misty and Ash's other Pokémon were able to defeat all of Pokémon Tech's students.

### Hunter J Arc

Misty and Wingull were having a training battle against Ash and Charmeleon, when Team Rocket interrupted them. In the resulting battle James' Koffing was able to take out Charmeleon, so Wingull had to team up with Pikachu instead to blast the trio and their Pokémon away.

When Iris attacked Misty for "hurting her little brother," Wingull helped battle against the Dragon Heart Bloodliner until Ash crashing down from the sky calmed her.

### Battle Dome Tournament

Wingull was the first Pokémon that Misty used in her battle against a wild Golduck that she intended to capture, but was knocked out in a single hit before she could do much of anything.

### Poison War Arc

Wingull was one of the Pokémon that Misty had with her when they went to investigate the power plant. When the group split up, Wingull originally stayed with Misty until she had Staryu and **Wingull** cover their backs as she and Psyduck continued deeper into the plant. After finishing off all of their opponents, Staryu and Wingul followed their trainer and ended up saving her and Psyduck from Vedia and her Ghastly.

The next day Wingull was one of the Pokémon used to battle and defeat a drunken Scouse and his team.

### Stuff In Between Arc

When Misty was trying to find items she could barter a Mega Stone for from a Seafolk peddler, Wingull flew to a nearby forest a few times to collect branches with berries on them.

### Cinnabar Arc

When Misty and company visited Blastoise Island in an attempt to save the resident Turtle Pokémon from poachers, Wingull did her best to assist in the rescue. When a smuggler tried to get Dirk to get away with a weakened Blastoise, Wingull attached herself to the smuggler's head and pecked him repeatedly to distract them. After the battle proceeded to escalate, Wingull faced off against Dirk's Mandibuzz in an aerial battle. Wingull was able to hold her own until Dirk's Braviary launched a surprise Rock Tomb and defeating the Water/Flying-type.

### Indigo Training Arc

Through training Wingull was able to learn both Air Cutter and Shock Wave. Wingull was then able to use these moves in Misty's 6-on-6 battle against Ash, her opponent being Pidgeot. Wingull was able to surprise Ash and Pidgeot with Shock Wave, but Pidgeot bounced it back with a Steel Wing and Wingull was not able to stay in the battle after taking the four times effective attack.

### Mewtwo Arc

On New Island, Wingull is captured by one of Mewtwo's special Poké Balls and presumably cloned. After she is released, she partakes in the battle against the clone army.

### Indigo Arc

When Misty and company are ambushed by fans of The Rookie Crusher, Wingull is one of the Pokémon used to wipe the floor with them.

Wingull was the first Pokémon Misty used in the Whirl Cup Qualifer, facing up against Tad's Poliwrath. Using Shock Wave, Wingull was able to surprise Poliwrath and gained a quick advantage, winning the one on one battle for Misty.
