''A Penguin Pokémon. It's one of the starter Pokémon received from Professor Rowan when the player departs from the Sinnoh region. It's a Water type, so it's strong versus {{t|Rock}} and {{t|Ground}}s. It's very cute but filled with pride--it hates to accept food from people.

While Piplup no longer appears from Poké Balls, having been replaced by {{p|Oshawott}}, it makes a cameo appearance in the [[Kalos Pokémon League (stage)| Kalos Pokémon League]]. When the stage transitions to [[Siebold]]'s room, it can be seen in the background along with {{p|Blastoise}}, {{p|Wailord}}, and {{p|Clawitzer}}. | |||

''You wouldn't think it from its adorable exterior, but this Pokémon is very proud and often won't listen to its Trainer. When it walks on land, it waddles and even falls over sometimes, all in a suitably cute way, but once it's in the water you'll see its true potential. It's a skilled swimmer and can dive for over ten minutes at a time to hunt.'' | |||

Piplup (Japanese: ポッチャマ Pochama) is a Water-type Pokémon.
It evolves into Prinplup starting at level 16, which evolves into Empoleon starting at level 36.
Along with Turtwig and Chimchar, Piplup is one of three starter Pokémon of Sinnoh available at the beginning of Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum.
Biology
Piplup is a light-blue penguin-like Pokémon, which is covered in thick down to insulate against the cold. It has a dark blue head with a primarily white face and a short, yellow beak. The dark blue feathers on its head extend down its back and around its neck, which causes it to appear to be wearing a cape. There are two white ovals on its chest and a small, light-blue marking resembles a crown above its beak. It has flipper-like arms and yellow feet with three toes each.
Piplup has a strong sense of self-pride. Because of its pride, it has a hard time accepting food from humans and bonding with its caretakers. It will even puff out its chest after it falls down, which it often does due to its poor walking abilities. However, it is a skilled swimmer that can dive for over ten minutes in order to hunt. It has also been shown to fly short distances in the anime. It lives along the seashore in colder climates.
In the anime
Major appearances
Dawn's Piplup
Dawn began her journey in Sinnoh with a Piplup. In Following A Maiden's Voyage!, Piplup and the starter Chimchar got into a fight over their food, with Piplup causing chaos by using BubbleBeam on the interior of Professor Rowan's lab in pursuit of Chimchar. The two escape, and Dawn is given the task of finding them. She finds Piplup, and the two narrowly escape an Ariados attack. Back at Rowan's lab, Chimchar having been found by Rowan's Staraptor, Dawn chooses Piplup.
As the Diamond & Pearl series continued, Dawn kept Piplup out of his Poké Ball more and more often, much like Ash does with his Pikachu.
Other appearances
A Piplup, who used to be a human, is also one of the two main members of Team Poképals in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time & Darkness and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky - Beyond Time & Darkness.
Tyler, a rookie Trainer that appears in The Thief That Keeps on Thieving!, has a female Piplup nicknamed Pippy. He uses her to capture a Yanma. She is different from other Piplup because she wears a tiara.
Another Piplup owned by Rowan appears in SS024.
One also appeared in Meloetta's Moonlight Serenade.
Minor appearances
A Piplup appeared in Alexa's magazine in The Journalist from Another Region!.
A Piplup appeared as a plush toy in A Jolting Switcheroo!.
Multiple Piplup appeared in Going for the Gold!.
A Piplup will appear in PK27.

In the manga
In the Pokémon Adventures manga
- Main article: Platinum's Empoleon
Platinum in Pokémon Adventures began her journey with a Piplup. It eventually evolved into a Prinplup and an Empoleon.
In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga
Hareta randomly selects Piplup to battle the enraged Onix in the first chapter. After their first encounter with Onix, Hareta chooses Piplup as his first Pokémon. Piplup is originally disobedient to Hareta, but listens to him in order to defeat the Onix in their second battle.
Movie adaptations
Dawn's Piplup appears in the following manga adaptations of Pokémon movies: The Rise of Darkrai, Giratina and the Sky Warrior, Arceus and the Jewel of Life and Zoroark: Master of Illusions, like in the anime is Dawn's main Pokémon. The role of Piplup is basically the same in all the chapters, however in most stories it is shown inside his Poké Ball and has fewer interactions with Pokémon present in the story.
In the TCG
- Main article: Piplup (TCG)
In the TFG
One Piplup figure has been released.
Other appearances
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
On being released from a Poké Ball, Piplup slides along the stage using Surf. Anyone caught in it will be pushed until Piplup disappears, or pushes the character off the stage. Piplup will keep using Surf even when off the stage.
Trophy Information
A Penguin Pokémon. It's one of the starter Pokémon received from Professor Rowan when the player departs from the Sinnoh region. It's a Water type, so it's strong versus Rock and Grounds. It's very cute but filled with pride--it hates to accept food from people. When it levels up, it evolves into Prinplup.
Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
While Piplup no longer appears from Poké Balls, having been replaced by Oshawott, it makes a cameo appearance in the Kalos Pokémon League. When the stage transitions to Siebold's room, it can be seen in the background along with Blastoise, Wailord, and Clawitzer.
Trophy Information
You wouldn't think it from its adorable exterior, but this Pokémon is very proud and often won't listen to its Trainer. When it walks on land, it waddles and even falls over sometimes, all in a suitably cute way, but once it's in the water you'll see its true potential. It's a skilled swimmer and can dive for over ten minutes at a time to hunt.
