Chemical mutagens are chemicals that cause mutations in DNA. They can bind with DNA, take the place of base pairs (base analogs), or alter the structure and bonding properties of bases (such as nitrous acid).
Ionizing radiation can cause mutations in DNA also. This includes gamma rays found in sunlight. The radiation causes some compounds to become free radicals, which have unpaired electrons and are very reactive chemically. In cells these radicals can react with sections of DNA and cause mutations.
*Ionizing radiation is why bacteria are killed by sunlight.
Many different factors can cause cell mutations. Smoking, excessive alcohol, and exposure to dangerous chemicals (e.g., Mercury, lead, etc.) can increase the amount of mutations. A lack of antioxidants (like Vitamin C and other found in fruit) can speed the growth of mutations.
A mutation in humans is caused by a misconnection of DNA chromosomes and cells. Not all mutations are genetics some are just a fluke with the DNA match up.

Mutations
certain mutations can result in certain proteins not being formed or not being formed in te right shape. As a result the chemical reaction facilitated by that reaction does not take place and the organism is not able to survive as easily

70% of cancers are estimated to result from mutations that are not inherited.
Mutations can be a source of genetic

Point Mutations always result in [causing] a frame-shift mutation so they are the same.

Pokemon mutations are not part of the game at all. Pokemon mutations are a result of hacking by an action replay.
While this question should be recategorized because external stimuli do not cause the mutations that result in hemophilia, there are many types of radiation that can cause gene mutations as well as chemical exposure. For example sun light is UV light radiation wich can cause mutations (for example the mutations that result in skin cancer).
