==Biology==
==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.

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 [[human]]s 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 {{pkmn|anime}}. It lives along the seashore in colder climates. It has been recently seen living in the [[Terarium]] of [[Blueberry Academy]].

====[[Dawn's Piplup]]====
[[File:Alternate World Dawn Piplup Egg.png|thumb|250px|A Piplup {{pkmn|Egg}} in the anime]]
{{an|Dawn}} began her {{pkmn|journey}} in [[Sinnoh]] with a {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}. In ''[[DP001|Following A Maiden's Voyage!]]'', Piplup and the starter {{p|Chimchar}} got into a fight over their {{pkmn|food}}, with Piplup causing chaos by using {{m|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 {{p|Ariados}} attack. Back at Rowan's lab, Chimchar having been found by Rowan's {{p|Staraptor}}, Dawn chooses Piplup.  
====Major appearances====
=====[[Dawn's Piplup]]=====
Piplup debuted in ''[[DP001|Following A Maiden's Voyage!]]'', where he got into a fight with a {{p|Chimchar}} over their {{pkmn|food}} in [[Professor Rowan]]'s lab. After ruining the lab, the two escaped, and {{an|Dawn}} was given the task of finding them. She found Piplup, and the two narrowly escaped an {{p|Ariados}} attack.

In [[DPS01]], Professor Rowan presented a Piplup to [[Shinko]] as one of the first partner Pokémon for her to pick. It fought with Rowan's {{p|Chimchar}} after it stole its food; this led to a window breaking and Piplup and Chimchar escaping. They were captured by an {{p|Ariados}}'s web before being rescued by Shinko and {{an|Dawn}}.

As the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} continued, Dawn kept Piplup out of its [[Poké Ball]] more and more often, much like {{Ash}} does with his {{AP|Pikachu}}.<!--When did it start staying out of the ball, I don't remember. Someone?-->

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 introduced in Generation IV.

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 the three first partner Pokémon of Sinnoh available at the beginning of Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, Brilliant Diamond, and Shining Pearl.

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. It has been recently seen living in the Terarium of Blueberry Academy.

Major appearances

Dawn's Piplup

Piplup debuted in Following A Maiden's Voyage!, where he got into a fight with a Chimchar over their food in Professor Rowan's lab. After ruining the lab, the two escaped, and Dawn was given the task of finding them. She found Piplup, and the two narrowly escaped an Ariados attack. Back at Rowan's lab, Dawn chose Piplup as her first partner Pokémon. Since then, he has been her main Pokémon and has been mostly seen outside of his Poké Ball.

Team Poképals

A Piplup, who used to be a human, was 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.

Other

In The Thief That Keeps on Thieving!, Tyler used a female Piplup nicknamed Pippy to catch a Yanma. She is different from other Piplup because she wears a tiara.

In DPS01, Professor Rowan presented a Piplup to Shinko as one of the first partner Pokémon for her to pick. It fought with Rowan's Chimchar after it stole its food; this led to a window breaking and Piplup and Chimchar escaping. They were captured by an Ariados's web before being rescued by Shinko and Dawn.

A Piplup appeared in I Choose You!, under the ownership of Verity. It is her main Pokémon.

In The Sinnoh Iceberg Race!, Lauren's Piplup ran away from Sinnoh after becoming jealous of Lauren's new Croagunk.

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 Ground-types. 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 stage. When the stage transitions to the Flood Chamber, 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.

Piplup appears as a Spirit.

Trivia

  • Piplup shares its category with its evolved form and Eiscue. They are all known as the Penguin Pokémon.
  • Piplup is the most selected Sinnoh first partner Pokémon in the anime, being the first partner Pokémon of Dawn, Kenny, and Tyler.
  • Piplup was designed by Yusuke Ohmura.[1]
  • In February 2007, a piece of merchandise at Toy Fair used "Pochama" to refer to this Pokémon, leading some fans to believe that it would be Piplup's English name. However, another item at the same event referred to it as "Piplup".[2]

Origin

Piplup is likely based on a young penguin, possibly an emperor penguin chick. The light blue crown-shaped marking above its beak may also allude to emperor penguins, or to emperors and kings in general. Piplup's body looks like it is clothed in a tailcoat which is often compared to black and white plumage of penguins.

Name origin

Piplup is derived from plop or plup, the sound of a pebble hitting water.[3] It may also incorporate pip, a stage of growth in baby birds immediately before they hatch from the eggshell.

Pochama is derived from ぽちゃぽちゃ pochapocha (the sound of a pebble splashing in water).[3] It may also incorporate 坊っちゃま botchama (young master).
