Croaky (Japanese: けろけろ Kerokero) is a Pokémon owned by Y in the Pokémon Adventures manga.

History

As a Froakie

Croaky was originally a starter Pokémon owned by Professor Sycamore. He, along with a Chespin and Fennekin, was given to Trevor in the hopes that X would decide to take one of the Pokémon and leave his house to go on a journey with it. The attempt was interrupted by the appearance of the Legendary Pokémon Xerneas and Yveltal, which appeared in Vaniville Town and caused destruction as they fought each other. Although Trevor and his friends escaped, the case with Fennekin's Poké Ball and Pokédex was lost during the chaos.

At Aquacorde Town, Tierno presented both Froakie and Chespin to X. Tierno revealed that he, Trevor, and Shauna decided that Froakie and Chespin should be given to X and Y, as they are the best battlers of the group of five. X refused due to him not wanting either Pokémon to be constantly attacked by their enemies, Team Flare, due to it being on his team. Later, Y finds the Team Flare scientists Aliana and Mable attempting to steal X's Li'l Kanga. When Mable attempts to have her Houndoom burn Y with its flames, Froakie saved Y with a wall of Frubbles. While X teamed up with Chespin to face Aliana's Diggersby, Froakie battled Mable's Houndoom. Eventually, X and Chespin managed to free X's friends from the room they were trapped in and pin Aliana and Mable to a tree, defeating them and giving X's group the chance to escape. Despite battling together, X still refused to let either Pokémon join him team.

At Route 5, Y decided to keep Froakie on her team and gave it the nickname Croaky. During Sky Trainer practice, an accident caused Y to fall to the ground. She was saved by Croaky using his Frubbles to cushion the impact. Afterward, Y decided to end her training for the day and went in X's tent to change clothes in privacy. She is interrupted by an Electrike that stole her regular clothes and ran off. After Croaky uses his Frubbles to create makeshift top for Y, the group chased after the Electrike. With his speed and jumping skills, Croaky easily dodged Electrike's moves and managed to take back Y's clothes.

As a Frogadier

Later, Y and her friends end up battling a group of Sky Trainers controlled by Team Flare while in a helicopter piloted by Cassius. Although they won, the battle ended up damaging the helicopter enough that it began to break apart, forcing Cassius to make an emergency landing. One of the propeller blades broke off and hit Y in the head, causing her to be sent flying down towards Route 9. Her fall was broken once again by Croaky's Frubbles. As she traveled the route to try and get back to her friends, Y found Celosia and Malva talking about next plan. Celosia, sensing Y's presence behind a boulder, used her Honedge to try and destroy the boulder, but Y and Croaky dodged in time. Just as Celosia took another swing, Croaky evolved into a Frogadier, grabbed Y, and leaped high into the air. He took a piece of the boulder that was knocked into the air, covered it in a Frubble, and tossed it at a group of wild Rhyhorn, startling them into stampeding in front of Celosia and Malva. This convinced the two Team Flare members that there wasn't anyone else in the area.

Afterward, Y began following Celosia and Malva to their next destination. Using his agility, Croaky stayed ahead of Y in the trees and alerted her when it would be safe to move forward. With a trail of Frubbles he left behind, X and the others eventually managed to reach Y again.

Later, the group traveled to Pokémon Village to find Team Flare after they went into hiding. Upon arriving, the group was attacked by Xerosic, who used his Malamar to put everyone to sleep with Hypnosis. By evolving into a Greninja and blocking out the sound with his tongue, Croaky avoided falling asleep, allowing it to defeat Malamar.
