Mankey (Japanese: マンキー Mankey) is a Fighting-type Pokémon.

Biology

Physiology

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Mankey specialize in physical fighting, but they can sometimes know elemental attacks (though they don't usually exceed in them very well).

Behavior

Mankey are very aggressive and short-tempered. Anyone that gets on its bad side (which is too easy to do), will receive a severe thrashing.

Habitat

Diet

Main article: Pokémon food

The prefered food appears to be Chestnuts, although Mankey usually lack the dexterity to peel them.

In the anime

A wild Mankey starts attacking and then evolves into a Primeape. Ash catches it.

Mankey is one of the Yas Gym's Pokémon in EP042

In the 3rd Pokemon Movie, Spell of the Unown, a trainer named Lisa owns one.

Pokédex entries

Pokémon Gold

It is extremely ill-tempered. Groups of them will attack any handy target for no reason.

Pokémon Emerald

When it starts shaking and its nasal breathing turns rough, it's a sure sign of anger. However, since this happens instantly, there is no time to flee.

Pokémon FireRed

Light and agile on its feet, and ferocious in temperament. When angered, it flies into an uncontrollable frenzy.

Pokémon LeafGreen

Extremely quick to anger. It could be docile one moment, then thrashing away the next instant.

Game locations

In side games

• Pokémon Snap: There are three Mankey throughout the stage. The first is seen early on, yelling at you from a distance in front of Mt. Dugtrio. When the river first starts getting very rapid, another can be seen on a ledge on the left side of the river, also yelling at you. The last one is on top of a large mound, yelling at you as well. This one, however, can be knocked down by hitting the Squirtle at the base of the mound and making it roll up the mound. Aim it right, and it'll roll right into the Mankey! This Mankey will fall on a switch, opening up the route to a little pond. This also puts Mankey in a close spot for good pictures of it yelling at you.
