Yanma (Japanese: ヤンヤンマ Yanyanma) is a dual-type Bug/Flying Pokémon.
It evolves into Yanmega when leveled up while knowing AncientPower.
Biology
Physiology
Yanma is a large, red dragonfly Pokémon. It has a long thin abdomen and a comparatively short thorax. It has three pairs of legs and two pairs of wings with red bands on them. Its head is also mostly red, except for its very large bright green eyes that take up most of the space on its head. It has exceptional vision.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
It can use its compound eyes to see completely around itself, making it easier to capture prey and avoid predators. It also can flap its wings very fast to generate shock waves which can break glass. Yanma's trademark attack seems to be SonicBoom, as seen in the anime and Pokédex.
Behavior
Habitat
In Pokémon Gold and Silver, Yanma was very rare except for the occasional swarm. It is often found in wooded and swampy areas.
Diet
- Main article: Pokémon food
It is a hunter that uses its amazing eyesight and speed to pursue its prey.
In the anime
Yanma first appeared in Wings n' Things. It was carelessly breaking glass in a town.
Yanma also made a cameo in Pikachu's PikaBoo.
A Yanma appeared in All in a Day's Wurmple, under the ownership of Forrester Franklin.
A group of Yanma also appeared in The Rise of Darkrai.
Yanma also appeared in Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part One.
In The Thief That Keeps on Thieving!, a rookie Trainer named Tyler was about to capture a Yanma that his Piplup had weakened, when Team Rocket showed up, and Jessie captured it instead. They sent it to Giovanni; however, Team Rocket already had obtained a large number of Yanma and so Giovanni returned it to them. When Jessie used Yanma in battle, it used AncientPower and evolved into a Yanmega. During this time, another weakened Yanma got away. A third Yanma appeared afterwards, and Tyler finally captured that one.
In the manga
In the Pokémon Special manga
A trio of Yanma are accidentally let loose in Template:PSV, causing minor chaos at Indigo Plateau.
In the TCG

Trivia
- Yanma weighs exactly the same as the male player character in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, as seen in the weight comparison feature of the Pokédex. It shares this characteristic with Sudowoodo, Skuntank, Togekiss, and Fearow.
- Prior to Generation IV, Yanma only could learn one Template:Type2 move: Wing Attack, and could not learn any Bug-type moves through leveling up.
- In Pokémon Gold and Silver, though, it could not learn any Flying-type moves.
- Yanma and its evolution, Yanmega, are the only Bug/Template:Type2 Pokémon to learn AncientPower by level up, and also the only two that can learn it and have the move do 4 times the damage on them.
- They are also the first Pokémon to shown to use AncientPower in the anime.
- In Gold and Silver the spikes at the end of Yanma's tail are actually located under the tail.
Origin
It is, as its name suggested, based on an ancient dragonfly because of its size and weight.
Name origin
Yanma's name is an abbreviation of its Japanese name, which is in turn 蜻蜓 yanma, large dragonfly, partially doubled.
