A Dragoninite debuted in ''[[HZ107|Friends as Two, Me and You]]'', appearing when [[Ult]] Mega Evolved his Dragonite for the first time.
{{-}}

==Trivia==
* The Dragoninite was the first Mega Stone introduced in {{g|Legends: Z-A}} to appear in the {{pkmn|animated series}}, debuting before its name had been officially revealed.
* The idea of a Mega Dragonite was joked about since people thought its mega stone would be named "Dragoniteite".

'''Mudkip''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミズゴロウ''' ''Mizugorou'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Marshtomp}} starting at [[level]] 16, which evolves into {{p|Swampert}} starting at [[level]] 36.

Along with {{p|Treecko}} and {{p|Torchic}}, Mudkip is one of the three [[Hoenn first partner Pokémon|first partner Pokémon of Hoenn]] available at the beginning of [[Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire]], {{v2|Emerald}}, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire]].

==Biology==
Mudkip is a small, amphibious, quadrupedal {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. It has a blue body with a light blue underside. Mudkip has a large head with a blue fin on top and a light-blue tail fin. It has black, beady eyes and orange, star-shaped gills on its cheeks.

By using the fin on its head, Mudkip can detect changes in air and water currents as well as bodies of water. Its fin can also point in a certain direction, as seen in the {{aniseries|AG}} episode ''[[AG114|Date Expectations]]''. Despite its small size, Mudkip is a very strong Pokémon. Mudkip is capable of moving or crushing boulders larger than itself. As mentioned in [[Sleep style|Sleep Style Dex]], Mudkip has been seen attempting to crush rocks with all of its might, even while asleep. Its large tail fin provides powerful acceleration to propel it through the water. According to its Pokémon Ranger browser entry, Mudkip is a very docile Pokémon. As seen in ''[[Pokémon Concierge]]'', Mudkip wag their tail when they are happy. Mudkip is more commonly found in captivity, though it can be found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|swamps and other wetlands}}. In the wild, it sleeps by burying itself in the mud soil at the water's edge or bottom of a river. It has been recently seen living in the [[Terarium]] of [[Blueberry Academy]].

===Evolution===
Mudkip evolves into {{p|Marshtomp}}, which evolves into {{p|Swampert}}.

==Trivia==
{{bulbanews|Gotta Meme 'em All: Mudkip and Marshtomp, here in the track}}
* In a poll conducted by Nintendo of Europe, Mudkip was voted as the fans' favorite [[first partner Pokémon]], with {{p|Typhlosion}} and {{p|Blastoise}} close behind in second.{{fact}}
* Mudkip is the subject of a popular {{wp|Internet meme}} known as "so i herd u liek mudkipz?".
** It started with a DeviantArt group for Pokémon related artwork called "MudkipClub". The owner of the group would invite people to the group by posting the phrase "so i herd u liek mudkipz" on other users' walls. DeviantArt referenced this in an April Fools' event where they changed everyone's profile picture to a GIF of Mudkip with the phrase above him.
* Mudkip and Pelipper were featured in the music video for [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwBImZgRnVU Fly With You], a remix of Littleroot Town's theme with lyrics, as part of the Project Voltage collaboration with {{wp|Crypton Future Media}}. In the video, Mudkip soars the skies in Pelipper's beak, wondering about their approaching [[Evolution]].

===Origin===
Mudkip appears to be based on the {{wp|Necturus|mudpuppy}} or {{wp|mudskipper}}, or also possibly an {{wp|axolotl}}. As it is the Mud Fish Pokémon, it might also be based on the {{wp|Gilled lungfish|gilled East African lungfish}} or the {{wp|flathead catfish}}, also known as the mudcat.

'''Lechonk''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''グルトン''' ''Gourton'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Oinkologne}} starting at [[level]] 18.

==Biology==
Lechonk is a stout Pokémon resembling a hog. Its body is almost entirely grayish black, except for the brown colorations on its face and ears, and the yellow growths under its eyes that resemble teardrops. Its ears are droopy with yellow insides, and they partially cover its eyes. It has a triangular pink snout with two huge oval nostrils as well as stubby feet ending in pink hooves. Its tail is short and curled.

Lechonk has an excellent sense of smell, which it uses to find fragrant wild grasses and rich {{Berries}} to eat. This diet causes it to emanate a herbal body odor that repels bug Pokémon.<ref name = "officialpage"/> Lechonk is also known to feed on the sweet nectar on {{p|Appletun}}'s back. Lechonk has a timid and faint-hearted temperament, and will panic and charge forward if attacked or startled by an opponent. Despite its apparent bulk, Lechonk's body mainly consists not of fat but of muscle, built up by its habit of walking around to find food.<ref name = "officialpage">[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/lechonk/ Lechonk — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet | Official Website]</ref> Some Trainers use Lechonk to look for cooking ingredients, such as detached {{p|Crabominable}} pincers scattered on mountains. As seen in the {{aniseries|HZ}} episode ''[[HZ009|Welcome to Paldea!]]'', Lechonk will become hostile towards trainers carrying groceries or meals and attack them for their food.

===Evolution===
Lechonk evolves into {{p|Oinkologne}}.

==Trivia==
* Lechonk is the only {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a base stat total of 254.
* Lechonk was the subject of [[The Pokémon Company]]'s [[April Fools' Day 2023]] campaign, titled "'''Discover Pokémon Together: Lechonk'''". Various Lechonk-themed distributions, promotions, and merchandises were released.<ref>(March 31, 2023). "[https://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/discover-pokemon-together-lechonk Discover Pokémon Together: Lechonk]." Pokémon.com.</ref>
* Lechonk and female {{p|Oinkologne}} are the only Pokémon that have {{a|Aroma Veil}} as a standard [[Ability]] instead of a [[Hidden Ability]].
* Pokémon YouTuber Purplecliffe missed a shiny Lechonk on stream in the first hour of the game releasing, making this the first Gen IX Pokémon that someone missed a shiny form of on recording.

===Origin===
Lechonk appears to be based on a pig, specifically a juvenile {{wp|black Iberian pig}}, with which it shares its large appetite and diet of fruit and nuts that owes it its rotund shape. Its description as a "gourmand" that sniffs out only the most fragrant foods<ref name = "officialpage"/> may pull from {{wp|truffle hog}}s, domestic pigs used to locate {{wp|truffle}}s, a valuable foodstuff used in gourmet dishes. The brown color of its face gives the impression that it is covered in mud, a characteristic often associated with pigs.

====Name origin====
Lechonk may be a combination of ''lechón'' (Spanish for suckling piglet), ''oink'' (onomatopoeia for a sound pigs make), and possibly ''chonk'' (slang term for a fat or large animal).

Gourton may be a combination of ''gourmet'', ''glutton'', and 豚 ''ton'' (pig).

==Trivia==
* Lechonk is the only {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a base stat total of 254.
* Lechonk was the subject of [[The Pokémon Company]]'s [[April Fools' Day 2023]] campaign, titled "'''Discover Pokémon Together: Lechonk'''". Various Lechonk-themed distributions, promotions, and merchandises were released.<ref>(March 31, 2023). "[https://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/discover-pokemon-together-lechonk Discover Pokémon Together: Lechonk]." Pokémon.com.</ref>
* Lechonk and female {{p|Oinkologne}} are the only Pokémon that have {{a|Aroma Veil}} as a standard [[Ability]] instead of a [[Hidden Ability]].
* Pokémon YouTuber Purplecliffe missed a shiny Lechonk on stream in the first hour of the game releasing, making this the first Pokémon that someone missed a shiny form of on recording.

===Origin===
Lechonk appears to be based on a pig, specifically a juvenile {{wp|black Iberian pig}}, with which it shares its large appetite and diet of fruit and nuts that owes it its rotund shape. Its description as a "gourmand" that sniffs out only the most fragrant foods<ref name = "officialpage"/> may pull from {{wp|truffle hog}}s, domestic pigs used to locate {{wp|truffle}}s, a valuable foodstuff used in gourmet dishes. The brown color of its face gives the impression that it is covered in mud, a characteristic often associated with pigs.

====Name origin====
Lechonk may be a combination of ''lechón'' (Spanish for suckling piglet), ''oink'' (onomatopoeia for a sound pigs make), and possibly ''chonk'' (slang term for a fat or large animal).

Gourton may be a combination of ''gourmet'', ''glutton'', and 豚 ''ton'' (pig).

'''Flamigo''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カラミンゴ''' ''Karamingo'') is a dual-type {{2t|Flying|Fighting}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.

==Biology==
[[File:Flamigo untied neck attack.png|thumb|left|195px|Flamigo attacking with its neck untied]]
Flamigo is an avian Pokémon resembling a {{wp|flamingo}}. It is mostly pink, with a rounded body and wings, and a long serpentine neck that's usually tied into a knot at the base. It is said that Flamigo ties its neck into a knot to keep the energy inside its belly from escaping. When it unties its neck, Flamigo is able to attack by rapidly swinging its head. Flamigo also has tall thin white legs with webbed feet, a white face, a curved beak with a black tip, and yellow eyes with black pupils. Flamigo typically stands on one of its legs.

Flamigo is a social Pokémon and lives in flocks, whose populations can reach over 10,000 members. Flocks of Flamigo are known to attack together in perfect harmony, via a behavior known as "synchronizing". These flocks typically dwell near bodies of water and in wetlands.

Flamigo is the [[Signature Ability|only known Pokémon]] that can have {{a|Costar}} as an [[Ability]].

==Trivia==
* There is a visual error on Flamigo's Paldea Pokédex image, showing two Flamigo with their wings both spread out and tucked in.
* Flamigo is actually the second most Google searched Pokémon (behind [[Pikachu (Pokémon)|Pikachu]]) due to people misspelling Flamingo.

===Origin===
Flamigo appears to be based on a {{wp|flamingo}}, and its Paldean origin may reference the fact that {{wp|Spain}} has the largest flamingo population in Europe.<ref>[https://birdlifedata.blob.core.windows.net/sub-global/3769_phoenicopterus_roseus.pdf BirdLife International (2021). ''European Red List of Birds'': Greater flamingo (''Phoenicopterus roseus'')]</ref> Its knotted neck and body shape may be a reference to a {{wp|Balloon modelling|balloon animal}}, a {{wp|boxing glove}}, or a {{wp|Plastic flamingo|plastic flamingo lawn ornament}}. Flamigo's classification and Fighting-type may be a reference to the elaborate, synchronized courtship dances performed by flamingos, which can encompass the entirety of a flock. Flamigo's {{Shiny}} variant's pale pink coloration may reference how the bright pink color of flamingos' plumage becomes a duller shade of pink the longer they go without eating.

====Name origin====
Flamigo may be a combination of ''flamingo'' and ''amigo'' (Spanish and Portuguese for friend).

Karamingo may be a combination of 絡む ''karamu'' (to entangle; to intertwine) and ''flamingo''.
