Luvdisc is a fish-like Pokémon with a relatively flat body in the shape of a heart. Loving couples gave this Pokémon its name after spotting it in the ocean waters. It is primarily light pink, with pale lips and circular markings on its cheeks. During the spring, it forms groups that turn the ocean's surface bright pink. Luvdisc lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|warm seas}}, where it makes its nest in the branches of {{p|Corsola}} or coral reefs.

[[Wallace]] has a Luvdisc nicknamed Elizabeth in [[Pokémon Adventures]]. She is usually shown out of her [[Poké Ball]], floating along beside him. Wallace relies on her to solve problems, as she is shown doing such things as putting out a burning scarf and releasing a {{p|Lileep}} and {{p|Anorith}} to test {{adv|Ruby}}'s worth at Wallace's request. Also, the two seem to share a bond, as he rarely, if ever, has to specify what he wants her to do. Like all of Wallace's Pokémon in the manga, she is incredibly beautiful and was able to defeat all of Ruby's top Contest Pokémon, excluding [[Feefee]], in an unofficial Contest in a matter of minutes.

Luvdisc (Japanese: ラブカス Lovecus) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

Biology

Luvdisc is a fish-like Pokémon with a relatively flat body in the shape of a heart. Loving couples gave this Pokémon its name after spotting it in the ocean waters. It is primarily light pink, with pale lips and circular markings on its cheeks. During the spring, it forms groups that turn the ocean's surface bright pink. Luvdisc lives in warm seas, where it makes its nest in the branches of Corsola or coral reefs. As shown in Luvdisc is a Many Splendored Thing!, when two Luvdisc kiss, they are able to use their slender bodies as wings in order to fly for short periods of time.

In the manga

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

Wallace has a Luvdisc nicknamed Elizabeth that debuted in Short Shift for Shiftry. She is usually shown out of her Poké Ball, floating along beside him. Wallace relies on her to solve problems, as she is shown doing such things as putting out a burning scarf and releasing a Lileep and Anorith to test Ruby's worth at Wallace's request. Also, the two seem to share a bond, as he rarely, if ever, has to specify what he wants her to do. Like all of Wallace's Pokémon in the manga, she is incredibly beautiful and was able to defeat all of Ruby's top Contest Pokémon, excluding Feefee, in an unofficial Contest in a matter of minutes.

Wallace's mentor, Juan, also uses a pair of Luvdisc that first appeared in With a Spoink in Your Step II, who observe him as he trained Ruby and Sapphire.

In the Pokémon Omega Ruby Crimson Passion and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire Indigo Wisdom manga

Some Luvdisc appeared while Alpha and Omega dove underwater with their Wailmer.

Trivia

  • Due to their similar appearance and identical typing, it was speculated that Alomomola would evolve from Luvdisc upon Alomomola's introduction to the public.

Origin

Luvdisc is based on the discus fish and certain other species of fish that appear to kiss each other (such as the kissing gourami). It is shaped like a heart symbol. Its Shiny colors may be a reference to having a heart of gold, which signifies a person or being completely without malice, whose nature is loving or caring.

Name origin

Luvdisc and Lovecus is a combination of love and discus or disc (in reference to its thin, flat body).
