Biology
Physiology
No Spinda is the same as another. All Spinda have different spots and spin patterns on their head and torso. Spinda resembles a small, upward standing rabbit or bear-like creature, with a small body similar, only slightly more bloated, to Plusle or Minun.
Gender differences
Although there is no specific difference among males and females, all Spinda look different anyway.
Special abilities
A handful of Spinda's attacks involve causing confusion, including the rarely seen Teeter Dance. Spinda can also use a handful of other Psychic attacks, such as the rarely seen Psycho Cut and Role Play. It is also capable of physical combat, such as using the elemental punches and Flail.
Spinda can either have the Own Tempo ability or the sparsely seen Tangled Feet ability.
Behavior
Spinda have the odd habit of staggering around when they walk. This makes them appear dizzy, but they are not. The teetering walk helps to confuse enemies and potential predators, messing up their aim.
