From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Chingling (Japanese: リーシャン Lisyan) is a Psychic-type baby Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.
It evolves into Chimecho when leveled up with high friendship during the night.
Biology
Chingling is a yellow, spherical Pokémon similar to a bell. It has stubby arms and legs, as well as beady, black eyes. On either side of its mouth is a large, black spot. Inside its mouth is a red orb, which creates a ringing sound as the Pokémon moves. Additionally, the orb can be vibrated to create high frequency, long-lasting cries to deafen its opponents. The sounds produced can be too high for people to hear. Atop its body is ring-like growth with a striped rope through the middle. The rope is red-and-white with short tassels on the ends.
In the anime
Major appearances
Three Chingling made their main series debut in The Bells Are Singing!, under the ownership of Francesca. They formed part of Francesca's magic trick, but she had trouble keeping them under control. When Team Rocket captured the Chingling, James found himself growing fond of them since they reminded him of his Chimecho.
In Battling a Cute Drama!, Marilyn's Chingling battled Brock's Croagunk, but despite having the type advantage, it lost.
