'''Klink''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ギアル''' ''Giaru'') is a {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.
'''Klink''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ギアル''' ''Giaru'') is a {{type|Steel}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

==Biology==
==Biology==
Klink resembles two interlocking gears with six teeth each. The teeth of the gears are a light gray, with a darker central region. Each gear has a white "X" in place of its left eye, while their right eyes have a black pupil and white sclera. They have round turquoise noses and small mouths. Klink can launch itself at opponents in the form of {{m|Gear Grind}} and {{m|Shift Gear}}, its [[signature move]]s. Once two bodies have joined, they cannot combine with any others or they will become separated. Klink generates its life energy by spinning, and is generally found in caves. According to [[Professor Juniper]], the first recorded evidence of this Pokémon dates to around 100 years ago, in the [[Chargestone Cave]]; she believes that it suddenly appeared in the cave at that time.

==In the anime==
Klink can launch itself at opponents. Klink and its evolved forms are the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Gear Grind}}. Prior to [[Generation VII]], {{m|Shift Gear}} was also one of its signature moves. Once two bodies have joined, they cannot combine with any others or they will become separated. Klink generates its life energy by spinning, and is generally found in caves. According to [[Professor Juniper]], the first recorded evidence of this Pokémon dates to around 100 years ago, in the [[Chargestone Cave]]; she believes that it suddenly appeared in the cave at that time. However, it is also believed that Klink are the inspiration behind the first gears invented by ancient people.

* In Generation V games, Klink's battle animation shows that its faces spin at a greater speed than its gear teeth. This is inconsistent with its evolutions, whose gears and faces rotate at equal speeds.
* The idea for Klink's evolutionary line came from [[Ken Sugimori]],<ref name=ND204/> while the designs were done by [[Keiko Moritsugu]].<ref>[https://imgur.com/a/cgf0g14 Archive of deleted tweet by Keiko Moritsugu]</ref>

Klink is based on a pair of interlocking gears, more specifically either {{wp|Gear#Spur|spur}}, {{wp|Gear#Helical|helical}}, or {{wp|Herringbone gear|herringbone}} gears. The Klink line's {{Shiny}} coloration may have been based on {{wp|copper}} gears, since their noses have turned green as copper does when it oxidizes into such compounds as {{wp|copper carbonate}}, forming a  patina. Klink also resembles the simplest concept of the perpetual motion machine, as it is just two gears which repeatedly spin each other.

Klink (Japanese: ギアル Giaru) is a Steel-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V.

It evolves into Klang starting at level 38, which evolves into Klinklang starting at level 49.

Biology

Klink is a Pokémon resembling two interlocking gears with six teeth each. The teeth of the gears are light-gray, with a darker central region. Each gear has a white "X" in place of its left eye, while their right eyes have a black pupil and white sclerae. They have round turquoise noses and small mouths.

Klink can launch itself at opponents. Klink and its evolved forms are the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Gear Grind. Prior to Generation VII, Shift Gear was also one of its signature moves. Once two bodies have joined, they cannot combine with any others or they will become separated. Klink generates its life energy by spinning, and is generally found in caves. According to Professor Juniper, the first recorded evidence of this Pokémon dates to around 100 years ago, in the Chargestone Cave; she believes that it suddenly appeared in the cave at that time. However, it is also believed that Klink are the inspiration behind the first gears invented by ancient people.

Evolution

Klink evolves into Klang, which evolves into Klinklang.

(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to Game data→Evolution data.)

Trivia

  • Klink represents June in the Unova horoscope.
  • In Generation V games, Klink's battle animation shows that its faces spin at a greater speed than its gear teeth. This is inconsistent with its evolutions, whose gears and faces rotate at equal speeds.
  • The idea for Klink's evolutionary line came from Ken Sugimori,[1] while the designs were done by Keiko Moritsugu.[2]

Origin

Klink is based on gears;[1] specifically, it appears to be based on a pair of interlocking spur, helical, or herringbone gears. Klink also resembles the simplest concept of the perpetual motion machine, as it is just two gears that repeatedly spin each other.

Name origin

Klink may be derived from clink (onomatopoeia for light metal striking a surface). It may also involve link and click.

Giaru may be derived from ギア gear.
