'''Browt ''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ハブロウ''' ''Haburou'') is a {{type|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation X]].

Along with {{p|Pombon}} and {{p|Gecqua}}, Browt is one of the three [[first partner Pokémon]] available at the beginning of [[Pokémon Winds and Waves]]. They were also the first Generation X Pokémon to be revealed to the public on February 27, 2026, through a [[Pokémon Presents]] video presentation.

==Biology==
Browt is a small, avian Pokémon whose body is mostly covered in fluffy, yellow down. It has a large head with a prominent crest, and tiny wings. Its bottom half is entirely black, including its feet and claws; each feet has two toes on the front and one on the back. Browt's most distinguishing feature is the green leaves that form its eyebrows, which appear to grow from the top of its beak, which is also green.

Browt uses its eyebrow leaves to photosynthesize. It is energetic and lively, but also rather clumsy.<ref>[https://windswaves.pokemon.com/en-us/ Pokémon Winds and Pokémon Waves | Announcement Trailer] — Pokemon.com</ref>


==Trivia==

===Origin===
Browt appears to be based on a bird chick and a sprout. It also seems to draw inspiration from the New Zealander bird {{wp|kākāpō}}. Given its {{pkmn|category}}, it may be a visual pun on the {{wp|chickpea}}, a type of legume (bean).

====Name origin====
Browt may be a combination of ''eyebrow'' and ''bean sprout''.

Haburou may be a combination of 葉 ''ha'' (leaf) and ''eyebrow''.

Skeledirge (Pokémon)

2026-02-25T02:52:15Z

Toucannon733: The whole Gaudí's art inspiration paragraph on the Origin part is not at all a stretch. It should have not been deleted, since writing just "trencadís" does not do justice to that side of its inspiration

'''Skeledirge''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ラウドボーン''' ''Laudbon'') is a dual-type {{2t|Fire|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Crocalor}} starting at [[level]] 36. It is the final form of {{p|Fuecoco}}.

==Biology==
[[File:Sleep Style 0911-1.png|thumb|200px|Skeledirge sleeping with one eye open]]
Skeledirge is a large, red, crocodilian {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} covered in rectangular scales. Its belly is angular and has a white coloration flanked by black stripes on either side, resembling an open suit jacket and dress shirt. It also has various white-colored patterns on its head, lower jaw, neck, back, shoulders, arms, legs, and the cylindrical tip of its tail. The white coloration on the top of its head resembles a {{wp|lute}}. Skeledirge has three black claws on each foot, and while it usually walks on all fours, it is capable of standing on its hind legs. Its head is delineated with a black circular shape at the top. It has black eyes with yellow irises and red eyelids, serrated jaws with purple insides, and various square and triangular patterns that come in red, orange, yellow, and purple. A wreath of solid orange-and-yellow fire energy emerges from the back of Skeledirge's jaws, which circles around its head.

There is an orange fiery bird resting on top of Skeledirge's head, which is a separate, independent entity from the Pokémon. This bird is spherical, with a yellow face, white eyes, a short crest and tail, and a singular tiny pointed "foot" it balances itself on. The bird was born when the egg-shaped fireball Skeledirge had as a {{p|Crocalor}} gained a soul, which also gave it its {{t|Ghost}} [[type]].<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/skeledirge/ Skeledirge | Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet]</ref> It can sometimes be seen pecking at Skeledirge's jaws, supposedly cleaning its teeth.

Skeledirge has a meddlesome but caring personality. Its singing is gentle but powerful and full of vitality, capable of soothing the souls of all who hears it. Opponents hearing its singing will feel warm and fulfilled inside, losing their will to battle. Skeledirge burns its enemies by unleashing flames that exceed 5,400 °F (3,000 °C). When it sings, its bird transforms into a microphone, growing its "foot" longer until it reaches the ground. {{m|Torch Song|The bird is then powered up by Skeledirge's singing, growing larger and flying towards its target}}. As shown in {{g|Sleep}}, Skeledirge and its pre-[[Evolution]]s are known to sometimes sleep with an eye open. The fiery bird on Skeledirge's head occasionally moves about and even plays pranks on it when its sleep is shallow. An excellent caretaker, it never gets angry no matter what's done to it and continues sleeping.<ref>[[Sleep style|Sleep Style Dex]]</ref>

Skeledirge is the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning {{m|Torch Song}}.

===Evolution===

==Trivia==
* Skeledirge is the [[List of Pokémon by weight|heaviest]] fully evolved [[first partner Pokémon]], weighing 719.8 lbs (326.5 kg).
* Skeledirge is the first fully evolved Fire-type [[first partner Pokémon]] to be quadrupedal.
* In a trademark filed by [[The Pokémon Company]] on November 7, 2022, Skeledirge's Japanese name was romanized as "'''Loudbone'''" instead of "Laudbon".<ref>[https://patent-i.com/tm/record/T2022127332/ 商願２０２２－１２７３３２]</ref> The name "Laudbon" was trademarked a month later on December 19, 2022.<ref>[https://patent-i.com/tm/record/T2022144611/ 商願２０２２－１４４６１１]</ref>
* In [[Generation IX]], prior to the Version 2.0.1 update of {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, Skeledirge was unable to learn {{m|Yawn}}, while its pre-Evolutions could.

===Origin===
Skeledirge resembles a {{wp|crocodile}} with a skull pattern or a {{wp|calavera}} on its forehead. In {{g|Sleep}}, Skeledirge and its pre-Evolutions are revealed to sleep with one eye open, just like real-life crocodiles. Skeledirge's association with singing and "suited" appearance in general resembles a singer such as those in {{wp|rock music}}, {{wp|mariachi}}, or {{wp|opera}}; or a {{wp|Conducting|conductor}}. Its {{t|Fire|Fire typing}} and {{m|Torch Song|signature move}} may be inspired by the fact that crocodiles release excess heat through their mouths.

Skeledirge may be a reference to some crocodile legends in the {{wp|Iberian Peninsula}}, notably the {{wp|ca:Drac_de_na_Coca|Drac de Na Coca}}, whose preserved body with an exposed skull may have inspired Skeledirge's skeletal appearance, and whose presence in pyrotechnical {{wp|correfoc}} festivities may have inspired Skeledirge's Fire type. It may also reference other legends such as the ghostly {{wp|Cocollona}}; or the {{wp|Coco (folklore)#Mythical_animals|Cucafera}}, depicted as a crocodilian dragon creature with the dome-shaped body of a turtle.

The "hatched" fiery bird on its head may be based on {{wp|Trochilus (crocodile bird)|trochilus}}, a legendary bird (speculated to be a {{wp|Egyptian plover}} or a {{wp|Spur-winged lapwing}}) depicted as having a {{wp|cleaning symbiosis}} relationship with a {{wp|Nile crocodile}}. The location of the bird might also be inspired by the bulbous protuberance at the tip of male {{wp|gharial}}s' snouts, which enables them to produce certain sounds.

Skeledirge's {{t|Ghost|Ghost type}} may also be inspired by Mexican holiday of the {{wp|Day of the Dead}}, with its face resembling a calavera and the fire energy around its neck resembling {{wp|Tagetes erecta|Mexican marigolds}} put on display to honor the dead. Its colorful look may be based on {{wp|alebrije}}, a form of Mexican sculpture art depicting fantastical creatures in brightly colored patterns. Alternatively, it also resembles the {{wp|trencadís}} works of art by {{wp|Antoni Gaudí}} such as the salamander statue dubbed "El Drac" (lit. "The Dragon"), located in {{wp|Park Güell}}, {{wp|Barcelona}}, as well as his architecture as a whole, which is usually very related to bones, most recognizably being the {{wp|Casa Batlló}} and the back of the {{wp|Sagrada Família}}.

====Name origin====
Skeledirge may be a combination of ''skeleton'' and ''{{wp|dirge}}'' (a song or hymn performed in mourning, such as during funerals).

Laudbon may be a combination of ''{{wp|laúd}}'' (Spanish lute, a musical instrument), ''loud'', and ''bone''.

'''Lokix''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''エクスレッグ''' ''Exleg'') is a dual-type {{2t|Bug|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Nymble}} starting at [[level]] 24.

==Biology==
[[File:4KomaPlaza451.png|thumb|left|250px|Lokix in its Showdown Mode]]
Lokix is a bipedal, insectoid {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} which resembles a locust. It is primarily dark gray, with glossy black colorations on the head, thorax, lower abdomen, forearms, lower legs, and third set of legs. Its face is covered in a mask-like plate, and contains a pair of black triangular antennae with two white stripes on top, along with orange triangular eyes and a triangular notch on its chin. Its thorax and abdomen are separated by a white belt, with an X-shaped pattern at the front. It has a pair of white claws on each of its hands, and a single claw on each foot. Its forearms have an orange spike each, while its calves have two orange spikes protruding towards the back.

Behind Lokix's body is its third set of legs, attached to its abdomen. These legs are oblong with a symbol resembling the {{wp|No symbol|general prohibition sign}} on the outside of the joints, and connect to thin, rectangular forelimbs. Each of the forelimbs have five orange spikes and a single white claw at the bottom. Lokix usually keeps its third set of legs folded on its back; however, it can unfold these legs to enter what is known as its Showdown Mode.

In Showdown Mode, Lokix stands and jumps on its now-unfolded third set of legs, and swings them to attack. Lokix utilizes its Showdown Mode to fight all-out, being capable of quickly subduing its foes in this mode. However, it cannot be in Showdown Mode for too long, as it places a huge strain on its body. Lokix can live in a variety of different areas in Paldea, such as grasslands, snowy mountains, deserts, and lakes.

===Evolution===
Lokix evolves from {{p|Nymble}}.

==Trivia==
[[File:Lokix Helmets Seguro.png|thumb|250px|Lokix helmet options from [[Seguro Style]] in [[Cascarrafa]]]]
* No other Pokémon has the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Lokix.
* Riding helmets resembling Lokix's head can be purchased with varying colors as part of Trainer customization in {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}.
* Lokix, along with {{p|Buneary}}, is the only Pokémon with 0 [[List of Pokémon by base friendship|base friendship]] that is not {{pkmn2|Legendary}}, a [[Mythical Pokémon]], an [[Ultra Beast]], or a [[Paradox Pokémon]].

===Origin===
Lokix appears to be based on a {{wp|grasshopper}}, particularly those of the {{wp|locust}} variety, which are notably larger than other grasshopper varieties and have a swarming phase. Its inability to fly also brings to mind the {{wp|meadow grasshopper}}, which, unlike most grasshopper species, cannot fly and traverse solely by hopping. Its Dark typing could be derived from the fact that grasshoppers and locusts are generally considered to be pests, and its debut in [[Paldea]] may refer to the fact that southern Iberia is the only region in Europe to be affected by locust plagues. It may also be based on {{wp|Tridactylidae|pygmy mole crickets}} due to its coloration and rounded features. The way its third set of legs fold up resembles the Spanish {{wp|Navaja|navaja}}; and its kick-based fighting style may be inspired by {{wp|tae kwon do}}.


Lokix also appears to be based on the superheroes of the ''{{wp|Kamen Rider}}'' franchise. The titular Riders typically have an insect motif (most often being the grasshopper), a belt used to transform into their masked alter-egos, a limitation on how long they can hold the transformation, and a signature finishing move known as the ''Rider Kick''. All of these elements are present in the design of Lokix. Its Dark type thus may reference the themes of morality in the ''Kamen Rider'' series, as many of the Riders are considered {{wp|antihero}}es, and their powers typically derive from the same sources and technology as the forces of evil they fight against. Additionally, the Riders are known for riding motorcycles, and while Lokix itself does not have any strong allusion to motorcycles or motocycling, motorbike helmets based on its design are sold in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.

====Name origin====
Lokix may be a combination of ''locust'' and ''kicks'' or ''crickets'', or a pun on ''low kicks''.

Exleg may be a combination of ''extreme'', ''expert'', or ''exoskeleton'', and ''leg''.

==Trivia==

===Origin===
Nymble appears to be based on a {{wp|grasshopper}}. The fact that it cannot fly, unlike most grasshoppers, may suggest it is based on a {{wp|meadow grasshopper}}, or a {{wp|grasshopper}} in its {{wp|Nymph (biology)|nymph}} stage, which is alluded to in its English name. It may also be based on {{wp|Tridactylidae|pygmy mole crickets}} due to its coloration and rounded features. The way its third set of legs fold up resembles the Spanish {{wp|Navaja|navajas}}.

====Name origin====
Nymble may be a combination of ''{{wp|Nymph (biology)|nymph}}'' (immature form of an insect) and ''nimble''.

Mamebatta may be a combination of 豆 ''mame'' (prefix for small) and 飛蝗 ''batta'' (locust; grasshopper).

===Pokémon Adventures===
Nymble debuted in ''[[PASV03|Battle! Team Star, the Delinquents!!]]'', under the ownership of {{Violet}}. It later evolved into a {{p|Lokix}} after defeating a {{tc|Team Star Grunt}}.

Another Nymble appeared in [[PASV06]], under [[Katy]]'s possession, and was used in a battle against {{adv|Scarlet}}.

==Trivia==

===Origin===
Nymble appears to be based on a {{wp|grasshopper}}. The fact that it cannot fly, unlike most grasshoppers, may suggest it is based on a {{wp|meadow grasshopper}}, or a {{wp|grasshopper}} in its {{wp|Nymph (biology)|nymph}} stage, which is alluded to in its English name. It may also be based on {{wp|Tridactylidae|pygmy mole crickets}} due to its coloration and rounded features. The way its third set of legs fold up resembles Spanish {{wp|Navaja|navajas}}.

====Name origin====
Nymble may be a combination of ''{{wp|Nymph (biology)|nymph}}'' (immature form of an insect) and ''nimble''.

Mamebatta may be a combination of 豆 ''mame'' (prefix for small) and 飛蝗 ''batta'' (locust; grasshopper).

'''Lokix''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''エクスレッグ''' ''Exleg'') is a dual-type {{2t|Bug|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Nymble}} starting at [[level]] 24.

==Biology==
[[File:4KomaPlaza451.png|thumb|left|250px|Lokix in its Showdown Mode]]
Lokix is a bipedal, insectoid {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} which resembles a locust. It is primarily dark gray, with glossy black colorations on the head, thorax, lower abdomen, forearms, lower legs, and third set of legs. Its face is covered in a mask-like plate, and contains a pair of black triangular antennae with two white stripes on top, along with orange triangular eyes and a triangular notch on its chin. Its thorax and abdomen are separated by a white belt, with an X-shaped pattern at the front. It has a pair of white claws on each of its hands, and a single claw on each foot. Its forearms have an orange spike each, while its calves have two orange spikes protruding towards the back.

Behind Lokix's body is its third set of legs, attached to its abdomen. These legs are oblong with a symbol resembling the {{wp|No symbol|general prohibition sign}} on the outside of the joints, and connect to thin, rectangular forelimbs. Each of the forelimbs have five orange spikes and a single white claw at the bottom. Lokix usually keeps its third set of legs folded on its back; however, it can unfold these legs to enter what is known as its Showdown Mode.

In Showdown Mode, Lokix stands and jumps on its now-unfolded third set of legs, and swings them to attack. Lokix utilizes its Showdown Mode to fight all-out, being capable of quickly subduing its foes in this mode. However, it cannot be in Showdown Mode for too long, as it places a huge strain on its body. Lokix can live in a variety of different areas in Paldea, such as grasslands, snowy mountains, deserts, and lakes.

===Evolution===
Lokix evolves from {{p|Nymble}}.

[[File:Lokix Helmets Seguro.png|thumb|250px|Lokix helmet options from [[Seguro Style]] in [[Cascarrafa]]]]
* No other Pokémon has the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Lokix.
* Riding helmets resembling Lokix's head can be purchased with varying colors as part of Trainer customization in {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}.
* Lokix, along with {{p|Buneary}}, is the only Pokémon with 0 [[List of Pokémon by base friendship|base friendship]] that is not {{pkmn2|Legendary}}, a [[Mythical Pokémon]], an [[Ultra Beast]], or a [[Paradox Pokémon]].

===Origin===
Lokix appears to be based on a {{wp|grasshopper}}, particularly those of the {{wp|locust}} variety, which are notably larger than other grasshopper varieties and have a swarming phase. Its inability to fly also brings to mind the {{wp|meadow grasshopper}}, which, unlike most grasshopper species, cannot fly and traverse solely by hopping. Its Dark typing could be derived from the fact that grasshoppers and locusts are generally considered to be pests, and its debut in [[Paldea]] may refer to the fact that southern Iberia is the only region in Europe to be affected by locust plagues. It may also be based on {{wp|Tridactylidae|pygmy mole crickets}} due to its coloration and rounded features. The way its third set of legs fold up resembles the Spanish {{wp|Pocketknife|navaja}}; and its kick-based fighting style may be inspired by {{wp|tae kwon do}}.


Lokix also appears to be based on the superheroes of the ''{{wp|Kamen Rider}}'' franchise. The titular Riders typically have an insect motif (most often being the grasshopper), a belt used to transform into their masked alter-egos, a limitation on how long they can hold the transformation, and a signature finishing move known as the ''Rider Kick''. All of these elements are present in the design of Lokix. Its Dark type thus may reference the themes of morality in the ''Kamen Rider'' series, as many of the Riders are considered {{wp|antihero}}es, and their powers typically derive from the same sources and technology as the forces of evil they fight against. Additionally, the Riders are known for riding motorcycles, and while Lokix itself does not have any strong allusion to motorcycles or motocycling, motorbike helmets based on its design are sold in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.

====Name origin====
Lokix may be a combination of ''locust'' and ''kicks'' or ''crickets'', or a pun on ''low kicks''.

Exleg may be a combination of ''extreme'', ''expert'', or ''exoskeleton'', and ''leg''.

'''Baxcalibur''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''セグレイブ''' ''Seglaive'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dragon|Ice}} [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Arctibax}} starting at [[level]] 54. It is the final form of {{p|Frigibax}}.

==Biology==
Baxcalibur is a large, {{wp|theropod}}-like Pokémon whose body is predominantly navy blue in color. It has a series of hexagon-shaped ice patches located near its chest area, on its kneecaps, and underneath its tail. It also has squareish polygonal light blue patches underneath its feet. It has long muscular arms and three sharp white claws on its hands and feet, along with three red quills protruding from each of its wrists. It appears to be wearing an icy mask on its face, with a pair of ice spikes pointing upward on its snout and icicles pointing downward on its chin. The only part of the face not covered in ice is its yellow eyes. The black, ice-coated spine on its back resembles an axe.

When in battle, Baxcalibur flips upside-down, using its spine as an axe while supporting itself with its head and forelimbs. It also spews out cryogenic air from its mouth, which is cold enough to freeze lava. To finish opponents off, it launches towards them with the blade on its back.

Baxcalibur is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Glaive Rush}}. Baxcalibur and its pre-evolved forms are also the [[Signature Ability|only known Pokémon]] that can have {{a|Thermal Exchange}} as an [[Ability]].

===Evolution===
Baxcalibur evolves from {{p|Arctibax}} and is the final form of {{p|Frigibax}}.

==Trivia==
* Baxcalibur and its pre-evolved forms are the only {{type|Ice}} Pokémon in the {{egg3|Dragon}}.
* Baxcalibur is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon whose [[catch rate]] differs across its entire evolutionary line.
* Baxcalibur has the highest base {{stat|HP}} and {{stat|Attack}} stats of all [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]].
** Furthermore, Baxcalibur has the lowest base {{stat|Special Attack}} stat of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon.

===Origin===

Baxcalibur may draw inspiration from ''{{wp|kaiju}}''. Its upright posture may allude to how most ''kaiju'' are humanoid in shape, due to the need to fit a human actor inside the {{wp|creature suit}} in ''kaiju'' films. It also has traits of certain species of dinosaurs, most notably ''{{wp|Concavenator}}'', a theropod dinosaur which had a crest on its back and quills on its forelimbs. Fossils of the genus were first discovered in Spain, and the crest is hypothesized to have functioned as a tool of {{wp|thermoregulation}}.

Baxcalibur may also be based on other sail-backed prehistoric animals, most notably ''{{wp|Spinosaurus}}'', ''{{wp|Ouranosaurus}}'', ''{{wp|Arizonasaurus}}'', and ''{{wp|Dimetrodon}}''. The diamond shape of its sail may allude to the plates on the back of {{wp|stegosaurid}}s. Its overall design may also reference old depictions of non-avian {{wp|theropod}} dinosaurs in {{wp|paleoart}}. Based on Baxcalibur's Japanese name and the way it utilizes its sail through the move {{m|Glaive Rush}}, this sail may be inspired by the head of a glaive.

Baxcalibur evolving at level 54 could be a reference to 1954, the year {{wp|Godzilla (1954 film)|the first ''Godzilla'' movie}} was released.

Its shape, colors and way of use, as well as its English name and theming, suggest that Baxcalibur's back sail may be based on a {{wp|Hand axe|biface}}, and, more specifically, on Excalibur<ref>[https://www.atapuerca.org/es/ficha/Z8FC4C2AB-EDC9-0CF7-518801EAF032F4A7/el-secreto-de-excalibur El secreto de Excalibur]</ref>, one of the most important bifaces ever discovered, located on {{wp|Archaeological site of Atapuerca|Atapuerca}}, Spain, whose geographical distribution matches with the portion of Paldea where Frigibax can be found.

====Name origin====
Baxcalibur may be a combination of ''back'' and ''{{wp|Excalibur}}'' or ''[https://artsandculture.google.com/asset/biface-excalibur/jAFplRP5hEZRoA Excalibur]'', a prehistoric {{wp|hand axe}} discovered in Atapuerca, Spain.

Seglaive may be a combination of 背 ''se'' (back) and ''glaive'' (referring to {{wp|glaive|a polearm weapon}} with origins in Europe, or short swords such as the {{wp|Gladius}}).

'''Brambleghast''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''アノホラグサ''' ''Anohoragusa'') is a dual-type {{2t|Grass|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Bramblin}} when [[level|leveled up]] while outside of its [[Poké Ball]] after the player walks 1000 steps using the [[Let's Go!]] feature.<ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1678027317891694593</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1680044846403272704</ref>

==Biology==
Brambleghast is a tumbleweed-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that is similar to its pre-evolution {{p|Bramblin}}, only larger and with more thorns. Most of the branches that compose its loose, spherical body are brownish yellow with light purple tips on top, while the base of its body and its center front branch are entirely dark brown.

The center front branch has two smaller branches near its base, which together with Brambleghast's eyes form a face. The two smaller branches act as Brambleghast's "lips", which can move to form expressions such as grinning or frowning. Brambleghast has small, diamond-shaped, leaf-like eyes; the right eye is black with a thin red pupil, and vice versa for the left eye. Each eye is surrounded by what appears to be a much smaller tumbleweed made of three stalks. The eyes don't blink and instead flip and rotate to express Brambleghast's emotions.

Brambleghast catches prey using its branches, completely enveloping them. Once accomplished, it will not let go of the prey until all of its life energy has been drained. Brambleghast lives in arid regions such as deserts, where the wind tumbles and rolls it around. There are rare occasions of massive outbreaks of Brambleghast, which can bury entire towns.

===Evolution===
Brambleghast evolves from {{p|Bramblin}}.

==Trivia==

===Origin===
Brambleghast appears to be based on {{wp|tumbleweed}}s — certain types of plants which, when mature, have most of their cells dry out and die so that the wind can pick them up and allow them to disperse their seeds, hence Brambleghast's Ghost type and Ability. Some tumbleweed species are capable of causing outbreaks, like the {{wp|hairy panic}}. Brambleghast's secondary {{t|Ghost}} type may also be derived from the association of tumbleweeds with {{wp|ghost town}}s and empty deserts.

All of this also suggest that Brambleghast may be strongly based on the Alicornio <ref>[https://murciaplaza.com/animales-fantasticos-murcianos Animales fantásticos murcianos]</ref>, a demon from the {{wp|Region of Murcia|Murcian}} folklore that hides himself on an tumbleweed and appears on days of strong winds to snatch the souls of the passersby.

The way it feeds on its prey by enveloping them inside and releasing them after fully consumed may be inspired by the feeding habits of {{wp|jellyfish}} and other {{wp|cnidarians}}.

====Name origin====
Brambleghast may be a combination of ''bramble'' and ''aghast''.

Anohoragusa may be derived from the phrase あのほら草 ''ano hora kusa'' ("Um... Look! Grass") and ''horror''.

'''Bramblin''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''アノクサ''' ''Anokusa'') is a dual-type {{2t|Grass|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Brambleghast}} when [[level|leveled up]] while outside of its [[Poké Ball]] after the player walks 1000 steps using the [[Let's Go!]] feature.<ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1678027317891694593</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1680044846403272704</ref>

==Biology==
Bramblin is a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that resembles a tumbleweed. It has small, rhombic, black, leaf-like eyes with thin red pupils that float inside its body, which itself comprises brownish yellow, jagged, thorny plant stalks that point up and curl slightly inward to form a spherical shape. The eyes don't blink and instead flip and rotate to express Bramblin's emotions. The stalks are held together by what appears to be the remnants of roots on the underside of its body.

Bramblin are created when wandering souls unable to move on get tangled and fused to dried grass. Bramblin's main form of locomotion is the wind, which blows it uncontrollably to destinations unknown. Bramblin despises getting wet. It makes its habitat in dry, rocky regions such as deserts.

===Evolution===
Bramblin evolves into {{p|Brambleghast}}.

==Trivia==
* Bramblin is tied with {{p|Sunkern}} and {{p|Lotad}} for having the lowest base {{stat|Defense}} of all {{type|Grass}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Bramblin appears to be based on {{wp|tumbleweed}}s — certain types of plants which, when mature, have most of their cells dry out and die so that the wind can pick them up and allow them to disperse their seeds, hence Bramblin's {{t|Ghost}} type and Ability. Bramblin's secondary Ghost type may also be derived from the association of tumbleweeds with {{wp|ghost town}}s and empty deserts. Its eyes resemble tumbleweed seeds and the two thorns on its sides give the impression of {{wp|devil}} horns.

All of this also suggest that Bramblin may be strongly based on the Alicornio <ref>[https://murciaplaza.com/animales-fantasticos-murcianos Animales fantásticos murcianos]</ref>, a demon from the {{wp|Region of Murcia|Murcian}} folklore that hides himself on an tumbleweed and appears on days of strong winds to snatch the souls of the passersby.

Bramblin's cry is reminiscent of the whistling sound at the beginning of {{wp|The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (theme)|the theme from}} ''{{wp|The Good, the Bad and the Ugly}}'', perhaps alluding to the tumbleweed being a common sight in {{wp|spaghetti Western}} movie scenes. Bramblin not knowing where it is going may reference the drifter character archetype that is a staple of the Western genre. It originating from Paldea might be a reference to how many Western movies were filmed in Spain.

====Name origin====
Bramblin may be a combination of ''bramble'' and ''rambling'', ''goblin'', or ''gremlin''.

Anokusa may be derived from the phrase あの草 ''ano kusa'' (that grass).

'''Bramblin''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''アノクサ''' ''Anokusa'') is a dual-type {{2t|Grass|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Brambleghast}} when [[level|leveled up]] while outside of its [[Poké Ball]] after the player walks 1000 steps using the [[Let's Go!]] feature.<ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1678027317891694593</ref><ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1680044846403272704</ref>

==Biology==
Bramblin is a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that resembles a tumbleweed. It has small, rhombic, black, leaf-like eyes with thin red pupils that float inside its body, which itself comprises brownish yellow, jagged, thorny plant stalks that point up and curl slightly inward to form a spherical shape. The eyes don't blink and instead flip and rotate to express Bramblin's emotions. The stalks are held together by what appears to be the remnants of roots on the underside of its body.

Bramblin are created when wandering souls unable to move on get tangled and fused to dried grass. Bramblin's main form of locomotion is the wind, which blows it uncontrollably to destinations unknown. Bramblin despises getting wet. It makes its habitat in dry, rocky regions such as deserts.

===Evolution===
Bramblin evolves into {{p|Brambleghast}}.

==Trivia==
* Bramblin is tied with {{p|Sunkern}} and {{p|Lotad}} for having the lowest base {{stat|Defense}} of all {{type|Grass}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Bramblin appears to be based on {{wp|tumbleweed}}s — certain types of plants which, when mature, have most of their cells dry out and die so that the wind can pick them up and allow them to disperse their seeds, hence Bramblin's {{t|Ghost}} type and Ability. Bramblin's secondary Ghost type may also be derived from the association of tumbleweeds with {{wp|ghost town}}s and empty deserts. Its eyes resemble tumbleweed seeds and the two thorns on its sides give the impression of {{wp|devil}} horns.

All of this also suggest that Bramblin may be strongly based on the Alicornio <ref>[https://https://murciaplaza.com/animales-fantasticos-murcianos Animales fantásdticos murcianos]</ref>, a demon from the {{wp|Region of Murcia|Murcian}} folklore that hides himself on an tumbleweed and appears on days of strong winds to snatch the souls of the passersby.

Bramblin's cry is reminiscent of the whistling sound at the beginning of {{wp|The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (theme)|the theme from}} ''{{wp|The Good, the Bad and the Ugly}}'', perhaps alluding to the tumbleweed being a common sight in {{wp|spaghetti Western}} movie scenes. Bramblin not knowing where it is going may reference the drifter character archetype that is a staple of the Western genre. It originating from Paldea might be a reference to how many Western movies were filmed in Spain.

====Name origin====
Bramblin may be a combination of ''bramble'' and ''rambling'', ''goblin'', or ''gremlin''.

Anokusa may be derived from the phrase あの草 ''ano kusa'' (that grass).

{{main|Bramblin (TCG)}}

==Trivia==
* Bramblin is tied with {{p|Sunkern}} and {{p|Lotad}} for having the lowest base {{stat|Defense}} of all {{type|Grass}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Bramblin appears to be based on {{wp|tumbleweed}}s — certain types of plants which, when mature, have most of their cells dry out and die so that the wind can pick them up and allow them to disperse their seeds, hence Bramblin's {{t|Ghost}} type and Ability. Bramblin's secondary Ghost type may also be derived from the association of tumbleweeds with {{wp|ghost town}}s and empty deserts. Its eyes resemble tumbleweed seeds and the two thorns on its sides give the impression of {{wp|devil}} horns.

All of this also suggest that Bramblin may be strongly based on the Alicornio <ref>[https://murciaplaza.com/iu-no-cierra-la-puerta-a-podemos-aplaza-el-pacto-con-mas-region-verdes-para-incluir-a-los-morados Animales fantásdticos murcianos]</ref>, a demon from the {{wp|Region of Murcia|Murcian}} folklore that hides himself on an tumbleweed and appears on days of strong winds to snatch the souls of the passersby.

Bramblin's cry is reminiscent of the whistling sound at the beginning of {{wp|The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (theme)|the theme from}} ''{{wp|The Good, the Bad and the Ugly}}'', perhaps alluding to the tumbleweed being a common sight in {{wp|spaghetti Western}} movie scenes. Bramblin not knowing where it is going may reference the drifter character archetype that is a staple of the Western genre. It originating from Paldea might be a reference to how many Western movies were filmed in Spain.

====Name origin====
Bramblin may be a combination of ''bramble'' and ''rambling'', ''goblin'', or ''gremlin''.

Anokusa may be derived from the phrase あの草 ''ano kusa'' (that grass).

'''Baxcalibur''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''セグレイブ''' ''Seglaive'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dragon|Ice}} [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Arctibax}} starting at [[level]] 54. It is the final form of {{p|Frigibax}}.

==Biology==
Baxcalibur is a large, {{wp|theropod}}-like Pokémon whose body is predominantly navy blue in color. It has a series of hexagon-shaped ice patches located near its chest area, on its kneecaps, and underneath its tail. It also has squareish polygonal light blue patches underneath its feet. It has long muscular arms and three sharp white claws on its hands and feet, along with three red quills protruding from each of its wrists. It appears to be wearing an icy mask on its face, with a pair of ice spikes pointing upward on its snout and icicles pointing downward on its chin. The only part of the face not covered in ice is its yellow eyes. The black, ice-coated spine on its back resembles an axe.

When in battle, Baxcalibur flips upside-down, using its spine as an axe while supporting itself with its head and forelimbs. It also spews out cryogenic air from its mouth, which is cold enough to freeze lava. To finish opponents off, it launches towards them with the blade on its back.

Baxcalibur is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Glaive Rush}}. Baxcalibur and its pre-evolved forms are also the [[Signature Ability|only known Pokémon]] that can have {{a|Thermal Exchange}} as an [[Ability]].

===Evolution===
Baxcalibur evolves from {{p|Arctibax}} and is the final form of {{p|Frigibax}}.

===Origin===

Baxcalibur may draw inspiration from ''{{wp|kaiju}}''.

It also has traits of certain species of dinosaurs, most notably ''{{wp|Concavenator}}'', a theropod dinosaur which had a crest on its back and quills on its forelimbs. Fossils of the genus were first discovered in Spain, and the crest is hypothesized to have functioned as a tool of {{wp|thermoregulation}}.

Baxcalibur may also be based on other sail-backed prehistoric animals, most notably ''{{wp|Spinosaurus}}'', ''{{wp|Ouranosaurus}}'', ''{{wp|Arizonasaurus}}'', and ''{{wp|Dimetrodon}}''. The diamond shape of its sail may allude to the plates on the back of {{wp|stegosaurid}}s. Its overall design may also reference old depictions of non-avian {{wp|theropod}} dinosaurs in {{wp|paleoart}}. Based on Baxcalibur's Japanese name and the way it utilizes its sail through the move {{m|Glaive Rush}}, this sail may be inspired by the head of a glaive.

Baxcalibur evolving at level 54 could be a reference to 1954, the year {{wp|Godzilla (1954 film)|the first ''Godzilla'' movie}} was released.

Its shape, colors and way of use, as well as the own Pokémon English name and theming, suggest that Baxcalibur's back sail may be based on a {{wp|Hand axe|biface}}, and, more specifically, on Excalibur <ref>[https://www.atapuerca.org/es/ficha/Z8FC4C2AB-EDC9-0CF7-518801EAF032F4A7/el-secreto-de-excalibur El secreto de Excalibur]</ref>, one of the most important bifaces ever discovered, located on {{wp|Archaeological site of Atapuerca|Atapuerca}}, Spain, which its geographical distribution matches with the portion of Paldea where Frigibax can be found.

====Name origin====
Baxcalibur may be a combination of ''back'' and ''Excalibur''.

Seglaive may be a combination of 背 ''se'' (back) and ''glaive'' (referring to {{wp|glaive|a polearm weapon}} with origins in Europe, or short swords such as the {{wp|Gladius}}).

'''Baxcalibur''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''セグレイブ''' ''Seglaive'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dragon|Ice}} [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Arctibax}} starting at [[level]] 54. It is the final form of {{p|Frigibax}}.

==Biology==
Baxcalibur is a large, {{wp|theropod}}-like Pokémon whose body is predominantly navy blue in color. It has a series of hexagon-shaped ice patches located near its chest area, on its kneecaps, and underneath its tail. It also has squareish polygonal light blue patches underneath its feet. It has long muscular arms and three sharp white claws on its hands and feet, along with three red quills protruding from each of its wrists. It appears to be wearing an icy mask on its face, with a pair of ice spikes pointing upward on its snout and icicles pointing downward on its chin. The only part of the face not covered in ice is its yellow eyes. The black, ice-coated spine on its back resembles an axe.

When in battle, Baxcalibur flips upside-down, using its spine as an axe while supporting itself with its head and forelimbs. It also spews out cryogenic air from its mouth, which is cold enough to freeze lava. To finish opponents off, it launches towards them with the blade on its back.

Baxcalibur is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Glaive Rush}}. Baxcalibur and its pre-evolved forms are also the [[Signature Ability|only known Pokémon]] that can have {{a|Thermal Exchange}} as an [[Ability]].

===Evolution===
Baxcalibur evolves from {{p|Arctibax}} and is the final form of {{p|Frigibax}}.

==Trivia==
* Baxcalibur and its pre-evolved forms are the only {{type|Ice}} Pokémon in the {{egg3|Dragon}}.
* Baxcalibur is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon whose [[catch rate]] differs across its entire evolutionary line.
* Baxcalibur has the highest base {{stat|HP}} and {{stat|Attack}} stats of all [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]].
** Furthermore, Baxcalibur has the lowest base {{stat|Special Attack}} stat of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon.

===Origin===

Baxcalibur may draw inspiration from ''{{wp|kaiju}}''. Its upright posture may allude to how most ''kaiju'' are humanoid in shape, due to the need to fit a human actor inside the {{wp|creature suit}} in ''kaiju'' films. It also has traits of certain species of dinosaurs, most notably ''{{wp|Concavenator}}'', a theropod dinosaur which had a crest on its back and quills on its forelimbs. Fossils of the genus were first discovered in Spain, and the crest is hypothesized to have functioned as a tool of {{wp|thermoregulation}}.

Baxcalibur may also be based on other sail-backed prehistoric animals, most notably ''{{wp|Spinosaurus}}'', ''{{wp|Ouranosaurus}}'', ''{{wp|Arizonasaurus}}'', and ''{{wp|Dimetrodon}}''. The diamond shape of its sail may allude to the plates on the back of {{wp|stegosaurid}}s. Its overall design may also reference old depictions of non-avian {{wp|theropod}} dinosaurs in {{wp|paleoart}}. Based on Baxcalibur's Japanese name and the way it utilizes its sail through the move {{m|Glaive Rush}}, this sail may be inspired by the head of a glaive.

Baxcalibur evolving at level 54 could be a reference to 1954, the year {{wp|Godzilla (1954 film)|the first ''Godzilla'' movie}} was released.

Its shape, colors and way of use, as well as the own Pokémon English name and theming, suggest that Baxcalibur's back sail may be based on a {{wp|Hand axe|biface}}, and, more specifically, on Excalibur <ref>[https://www.atapuerca.org/es/ficha/Z8FC4C2AB-EDC9-0CF7-518801EAF032F4A7/el-secreto-de-excalibur El secreto de Excalibur]</ref>, one of the most important bifaces ever discovered, located on {{wp|Archaeological site of Atapuerca|Atapuerca}}, Spain, which its geographical distribution matches with the portion of Paldea where Frigibax can be found.

====Name origin====
Baxcalibur may be a combination of ''back'' and ''Excalibur'' <ref El secreto de Excalibur="El secreto de Excalibur">content</ref>.

Seglaive may be a combination of 背 ''se'' (back) and ''glaive'' (referring to {{wp|glaive|a polearm weapon}} with origins in Europe, or short swords such as the {{wp|Gladius}}).

'''Baxcalibur''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''セグレイブ''' ''Seglaive'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dragon|Ice}} [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Arctibax}} starting at [[level]] 54. It is the final form of {{p|Frigibax}}.

==Biology==
Baxcalibur is a large, {{wp|theropod}}-like Pokémon whose body is predominantly navy blue in color. It has a series of hexagon-shaped ice patches located near its chest area, on its kneecaps, and underneath its tail. It also has squareish polygonal light blue patches underneath its feet. It has long muscular arms and three sharp white claws on its hands and feet, along with three red quills protruding from each of its wrists. It appears to be wearing an icy mask on its face, with a pair of ice spikes pointing upward on its snout and icicles pointing downward on its chin. The only part of the face not covered in ice is its yellow eyes. The black, ice-coated spine on its back resembles an axe.

When in battle, Baxcalibur flips upside-down, using its spine as an axe while supporting itself with its head and forelimbs. It also spews out cryogenic air from its mouth, which is cold enough to freeze lava. To finish opponents off, it launches towards them with the blade on its back.

Baxcalibur is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Glaive Rush}}. Baxcalibur and its pre-evolved forms are also the [[Signature Ability|only known Pokémon]] that can have {{a|Thermal Exchange}} as an [[Ability]].

===Evolution===
Baxcalibur evolves from {{p|Arctibax}} and is the final form of {{p|Frigibax}}.

==Trivia==
* Baxcalibur and its pre-evolved forms are the only {{type|Ice}} Pokémon in the {{egg3|Dragon}}.
* Baxcalibur is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon whose [[catch rate]] differs across its entire evolutionary line.
* Baxcalibur has the highest base {{stat|HP}} and {{stat|Attack}} stats of all [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]].
** Furthermore, Baxcalibur has the lowest base {{stat|Special Attack}} stat of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon.

===Origin===

Baxcalibur may draw inspiration from ''{{wp|kaiju}}''. Its upright posture may allude to how most ''kaiju'' are humanoid in shape, due to the need to fit a human actor inside the {{wp|creature suit}} in ''kaiju'' films. It also has traits of certain species of dinosaurs, most notably ''{{wp|Concavenator}}'', a theropod dinosaur which had a crest on its back and quills on its forelimbs. Fossils of the genus were first discovered in Spain, and the crest is hypothesized to have functioned as a tool of {{wp|thermoregulation}}.

Baxcalibur may also be based on other sail-backed prehistoric animals, most notably ''{{wp|Spinosaurus}}'', ''{{wp|Ouranosaurus}}'', ''{{wp|Arizonasaurus}}'', and ''{{wp|Dimetrodon}}''. The diamond shape of its sail may allude to the plates on the back of {{wp|stegosaurid}}s. Its overall design may also reference old depictions of non-avian {{wp|theropod}} dinosaurs in {{wp|paleoart}}. Based on Baxcalibur's Japanese name and the way it utilizes its sail through the move {{m|Glaive Rush}}, this sail may be inspired by the head of a glaive.

Baxcalibur evolving at level 54 could be a reference to 1954, the year {{wp|Godzilla (1954 film)|the first ''Godzilla'' movie}} was released.

Its shape, colors and way of use, as well as the own Pokémon English name and theming, suggest that Baxcalibur's back sail is based on a {{wp|Hand axe|biface}}, and, more specifically, on Excalibur <ref>[https://www.atapuerca.org/es/ficha/Z8FC4C2AB-EDC9-0CF7-518801EAF032F4A7/el-secreto-de-excalibur El secreto de Excalibur]</ref>, one of the most important bifaces ever discovered, located on {{wp|Archaeological site of Atapuerca|Atapuerca}}, Spain, which its geographical distribution matches with the portion of Paldea where Frigibax can be found.

====Name origin====
Baxcalibur may be a combination of ''back'' and ''{{wp|Excalibur}}''.

Seglaive may be a combination of 背 ''se'' (back) and ''glaive'' (referring to {{wp|glaive|a polearm weapon}} with origins in Europe, or short swords such as the {{wp|Gladius}}).

==Trivia==
* Baxcalibur and its pre-evolved forms are the only {{type|Ice}} Pokémon in the {{egg3|Dragon}}.
* Baxcalibur is the only pseudo-legendary Pokémon whose [[catch rate]] differs across its entire evolutionary line.
* Baxcalibur has the highest base {{stat|HP}} and {{stat|Attack}} stats of all [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]].
** Furthermore, Baxcalibur has the lowest base {{stat|Special Attack}} stat of all pseudo-legendary Pokémon.

===Origin===

Baxcalibur may draw inspiration from ''{{wp|kaiju}}''. Its upright posture may allude to how most ''kaiju'' are humanoid in shape, due to the need to fit a human actor inside the {{wp|creature suit}} in ''kaiju'' films. It also has traits of certain species of dinosaurs, most notably ''{{wp|Concavenator}}'', a theropod dinosaur which had a crest on its back and quills on its forelimbs. Fossils of the genus were first discovered in Spain, and the crest is hypothesized to have functioned as a tool of {{wp|thermoregulation}}.

Baxcalibur may also be based on other sail-backed prehistoric animals, most notably ''{{wp|Spinosaurus}}'', ''{{wp|Ouranosaurus}}'', ''{{wp|Arizonasaurus}}'', and ''{{wp|Dimetrodon}}''. The diamond shape of its sail may allude to the plates on the back of {{wp|stegosaurid}}s. Its overall design may also reference old depictions of non-avian {{wp|theropod}} dinosaurs in {{wp|paleoart}}. Based on Baxcalibur's Japanese name and the way it utilizes its sail through the move {{m|Glaive Rush}}, this sail may be inspired by the head of a glaive.

Baxcalibur evolving at level 54 could be a reference to 1954, the year {{wp|Godzilla (1954 film)|the first ''Godzilla'' movie}} was released.

Its shape, colors and way of use, as well as the own Pokémon English name and theming, suggest that Baxcalibur's back sail is based on a {{wp|Hand axe|biface}}, and, more specifically, on Excalibur <ref>[https://www.atapuerca.org/es/ficha/Z8FC4C2AB-EDC9-0CF7-518801EAF032F4A7/el-secreto-de-excalibur El secreto de Excalibur (14/09, 2024)]</ref>, one of the most important bifaces ever discovered, located on {{wp|Archaeological site of Atapuerca|Atapuerca}},Spain, which its geographical distribution matches with the portion of Paldea where Frigibax can be found.

====Name origin====
Baxcalibur may be a combination of ''back'' and ''{{wp|Excalibur}}''.

Seglaive may be a combination of 背 ''se'' (back) and ''glaive'' (referring to {{wp|glaive|a polearm weapon}} with origins in Europe, or short swords such as the {{wp|Gladius}}).

==In the anime==
===Main series===
[[File:Levincia anime.png|thumb|250px|Levincia in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Levincia first appeared in ''[[HZ013|An Unexpected Picnic!]]'', where the city could be seen from the cliff where the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] had their [[picnic]].

In ''[[HZ014|Fly! Wattrel!!]]'', [[Liko]] and [[Murdock]] went to Levincia to do some shopping. A bit later, [[Friede]] confronted [[Spinel]]'s {{p|Beheeyem}} and {{p|Magneton}} elsewhere in the city, succeeding in driving them off after {{Tera}}stallizing his {{p|Charizard}}. At the end of the episode, Spinel set up a trap for Liko and used his Beheeyem to put her in a trance while stealing her pendant.

In ''[[HZ015|Someone We Can't See! Whosawhatsit?]]'', [[Dot]] enlisted [[Iono]]'s help in finding Liko, who had temporarily forgotten about the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] due to Spinel's Beheeyem. With her help, Liko was quickly found by the citizens of Levincia, allowing [[Roy]] and Dot to reunite with her, by which time she had recovered her memories. As they reunited with Friede and realized Liko's pendant was gone, they set out to get it back. In the [[HZ016|next episode]], Liko, Roy, and Dot confronted Spinel aboard a cargo ship leaving Levincia and managed to get the pendant back.

Levincia's Million Volt Skyline, one of the [[Ten Sights of Paldea]], was briefly featured in ''[[PPW04|Breathe Together]]''. The city also served as [[Iono]]'s background footage during her own introduction.

==Trivia==
* Levincia's electricity is powered by {{p|Tadbulb}}.<ref>'''NPC:''' "This city’s electricity is generated by a species of Pokémon called Tadbulb! What hard workers!" ({{g|Scarlet and Violet}})</ref>

===Origin===
{{main|Pokémon world in relation to the real world#Paldea|Pokémon world in relation to the real world → Paldea}}
As a large seaside city along Paldea's eastern coastline featuring modern buildings and towering high-rises, Levincia may be based on the real-world port city of {{wp|València}}. ''Levincia'' also appears to be a modified anagram of ''València''. The skyscraper complex in Levincia, however, appears to be based on {{wp|Cuatro Torres}} found in {{wp|Madrid}} instead.

==In the anime==
===Main series===
[[File:Levincia anime.png|thumb|250px|Levincia in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Levincia first appeared in ''[[HZ013|An Unexpected Picnic!]]'', where the city could be seen from the cliff where the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] had their [[picnic]].

In ''[[HZ014|Fly! Wattrel!!]]'', [[Liko]] and [[Murdock]] went to Levincia to do some shopping. A bit later, [[Friede]] confronted [[Spinel]]'s {{p|Beheeyem}} and {{p|Magneton}} elsewhere in the city, succeeding in driving them off after {{Tera}}stallizing his {{p|Charizard}}. At the end of the episode, Spinel set up a trap for Liko and used his Beheeyem to put her in a trance while stealing her pendant.

In ''[[HZ015|Someone We Can't See! Whosawhatsit?]]'', [[Dot]] enlisted [[Iono]]'s help in finding Liko, who had temporarily forgotten about the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] due to Spinel's Beheeyem. With her help, Liko was quickly found by the citizens of Levincia, allowing [[Roy]] and Dot to reunite with her, by which time she had recovered her memories. As they reunited with Friede and realized Liko's pendant was gone, they set out to get it back. In the [[HZ016|next episode]], Liko, Roy, and Dot confronted Spinel aboard a cargo ship leaving Levincia and managed to get the pendant back.

===Pokémon: Paldean Winds===
[[File:Million Volt Skyline PW.png|thumb|250px|Levincia in [[Pokémon: Paldean Winds]]]]
Levincia's Million Volt Skyline, one of the [[Ten Sights of Paldea]], was briefly featured in ''[[PPW04|Breathe Together]]''. The city also served as [[Iono]]'s background footage during her own introduction.

==Trivia==
* Levincia's electricity is powered by {{p|Tadbulb}}.<ref>'''NPC:''' "This city’s electricity is generated by a species of Pokémon called Tadbulb! What hard workers!" ({{g|Scarlet and Violet}})</ref>

===Origin===
{{main|Pokémon world in relation to the real world#Paldea|Pokémon world in relation to the real world → Paldea}}
As a large seaside city along Paldea's eastern coastline featuring modern buildings and towering high-rises, Levincia may be based on the real-world port city of {{wp|València}}. ''Levincia'' also appears to be a modified anagram of ''València''. The skyscraper complex in Levincia, however, appears to be based on {{wp|Cuatro Torres}} found in {{wp|Madrid}} instead.

'''Greavard''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ボチ''' ''Bochi'') is a {{type|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Houndstone}} when [[level]]ed up at [[Time#Time-based evolutions|night]] starting at [[level]] 30.

==Biology==
Greavard is a quadrupedal canine Pokémon whose body is covered in long, shaggy pale grey hair that reaches down to its legs. Its large snout peeks under the hair covering most of its head, and contains a black triangular nose and a wide, jagged mouth powerful enough to shatter bones.<ref name=SVsite/> Rather than having actual teeth, Greavard instead has serrated lips. It has stubby limbs and large round feet, and it has a slight waddle to its walk. Its rear has a thin wispy tail. On the top of its head is a protrusion resembling a candle, which burns with a small purplish-yellow light.

Greavard usually rests underground, with the candle-like part of its head left uncovered, as it waits for people to come nearby. If it is approached, it jumps out of the ground and lets a spooky cry that may unintentionally startle most people. Greavard is friendly, affectionate and easily gets lonely. It is really easy to befriend, and will forever follow anyone who gives it the slightest of attention. However, it is advised not to play with Greavard too often, as it is known to slowly and unwittingly drain the life-force of those near it.<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/greavard/ Greavard — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet | Official Website]</ref> It is rumored that Greavard is the reincarnation of a dog Pokémon that had never interacted with a human and died in the wild. Greavard primarily lives in boreal mountains.

===Evolution===
Greavard evolves into {{p|Houndstone}}.

==Trivia==
* Greavard and its evolution were designed by [[Kazuyuki Kurashima]].<ref>[https://twitter.com/kurashimakaz/status/1604174633065816066 Kazuyuki Kurashima on Twitter]</ref><ref>[https://twitter.com/kurashimakaz/status/1604180891311280129 Kazuyuki Kurashima on Twitter]</ref>
* Greavard, along with {{p|Shedinja}}, {{p|Duskull}}, and {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Yamask}}, has the lowest base {{stat|Special Attack}} stat of all {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon.
* Greavard is tied with {{p|Cleffa}} and {{p|Pawmi}} for having the shortest Japanese name of all Pokémon, being spelt with only two kana.
* Greavard was first teased on October 24, 2022, through a video on the official Pokémon Twitter account, which briefly showed it in its buried state.<ref>[https://twitter.com/Pokemon/status/1584600698028969984 Tweet by Pokémon (@Pokemon).] Posted on October 24, 2022.</ref> It was properly revealed on October 25, 2022.<ref>"[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PF5UzdmOzPs A new Ghost-type Pokémon appeared in Paldea!]" [https://www.youtube.com/c/pokemon The Official Pokémon YouTube Channel]. ''YouTube''.</ref>

===Origin===
Greavard seems to be mainly based on the Iberian {{wp|Catalan Sheepdog}}, but could also take inspiration from other long-haired dog breeds such as the {{wp|Briard}} or the {{wp|Komondor}}. Its habit of burying itself underground and popping out to surprise people is reminiscent of depictions of the {{wp|undead}} rising from their graves. In its buried state, the candle-like protrusion above its head appears to be a stand-in for a {{wp|grave candle}} and also resembles a {{wp|bone}}.

Greavard may also be based on various of the numerous dogs from {{wp|Spanish mythology|Spanish mythology and folklore}}, such as the {{wp|Pesanta}} or the {{wp|Dip (Catalan myth)|Dip}}, dog-shaped spirits from {{wp|Catalan myths and legends|Catalan mythology}} known for draining human vitality. The long white fur and the grave candle may also point to the {{wp|Santa Compaña}} as a possible origin, as they are wearing white, hooded cloaks and carrying candles.

Greavard's candle and dog-like appearance may be a reference to the process of {{wp|Rendering (animal products)|rendering}} animal fat into {{wp|tallow}}, which was historically used to make candles and leaves behind a solid material called greaves that is often used as dog food.

====Name origin====
Greavard may be a combination of ''graveyard'', ''grieve'', ''{{wp|Tallow|greaves}}'' (a byproduct of a historical method of candlemaking; typically used as dog food), and ''{{wp|Briard}}'' (a long-haired dog breed).

Bochi may be derived from 墓地 ''bochi'' (graveyard). It may also derive from ポチ ''Pochi'' (a common name for a pet dog in Japan) or ひとりぼっち ''hitoribocchi'' (loneliness).

'''Houndstone''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ハカドッグ''' ''Hakadog'') is a {{type|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Greavard}} when [[level]]ed up at [[Time#Time-based evolutions|night]] starting at [[level]] 30.

==Biology==
Houndstone is a large, skeletal, canine Pokémon, reborn from a lovingly mourned deceased Pokémon. The top of its head and its humped back are covered in long, shaggy, white fur that is a light purple color at the base, covering its eyes and its body. Its face has a large, protruding lower jaw, and its legs have three toes each. Below its fur, its legs and tail do not appear to be attached to a torso, instead floating in place relative to each other.

Atop Houndstone's head is a large protuberance highly resembling a tombstone, which it prefers not to be touched. Houndstone spends much of its time buried below the ground, particularly in graveyards, with only its "tombstone" visible. Houndstone is considered the most loyal of all dog Pokémon. It predominantly lives in boreal mountains. It is one of the few Pokémon that weighs less than its pre-evolved form.

Houndstone is the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Last Respects}} by leveling up.

===Evolution===
Houndstone evolves from {{p|Greavard}}.

==Trivia==
* Houndstone and its pre-evolution were designed by [[Kazuyuki Kurashima]].<ref>[https://twitter.com/kurashimakaz/status/1604174633065816066 Kazuyuki Kurashima on Twitter]</ref><ref>[https://twitter.com/kurashimakaz/status/1604180891311280129 Kazuyuki Kurashima on Twitter]</ref>

===Origin===
Houndstone seems to be mainly based on the Iberian {{wp|Catalan Sheepdog}}, but could also take inspiration from other long-haired dog breeds such as the {{wp|Briard}} or the {{wp|Komondor}}. Houndstone's skeletal appearance and typing may be based on depictions of the {{wp|undead}}. The protrusion on its head resembles a {{wp|headstone}} and a {{wp|bone}}, while the raised portion of its body resembles a {{wp|tumulus}}, a pile of earth placed over burial grounds.

Houndstone may also be based on various of the numerous dogs from {{wp|Spanish mythology|Spanish mythology and folklore}}, such as the {{wp|Pesanta}} or the {{wp|Dip (Catalan myth)|Dip}}, dog-shaped spirits from {{wp|Catalan myths and legends|Catalan mythology}} known for draining human vitality. It being described as the most loyal of the dog Pokémon may also point to the {{wp|Cadejo|White Cadejo}} as a possible origin.

====Name origin====
Houndstone may be a combination of ''hound'' and ''headstone''.

Hakadog may be a combination of 墓 ''haka'' (tomb) and ''dog''.

'''Greavard''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ボチ''' ''Bochi'') is a {{type|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Houndstone}} when [[level]]ed up at [[Time#Time-based evolutions|night]] starting at [[level]] 30.

==Biology==
Greavard is a quadrupedal canine Pokémon whose body is covered in long, shaggy pale grey hair that reaches down to its legs. Its large snout peeks under the hair covering most of its head, and contains a black triangular nose and a wide, jagged mouth powerful enough to shatter bones.<ref name=SVsite/> Rather than having actual teeth, Greavard instead has serrated lips. It has stubby limbs and large round feet, and it has a slight waddle to its walk. Its rear has a thin wispy tail. On the top of its head is a protrusion resembling a candle, which burns with a small purplish-yellow light.

Greavard usually rests underground, with the candle-like part of its head left uncovered, as it waits for people to come nearby. If it is approached, it jumps out of the ground and lets a spooky cry that may unintentionally startle most people. Greavard is friendly, affectionate and easily gets lonely. It is really easy to befriend, and will forever follow anyone who gives it the slightest of attention. However, it is advised not to play with Greavard too often, as it is known to slowly and unwittingly drain the life-force of those near it.<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/greavard/ Greavard — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet | Official Website]</ref> It is rumored that Greavard is the reincarnation of a dog Pokémon that had never interacted with a human and died in the wild. Greavard primarily lives in boreal mountains.

===Evolution===
Greavard evolves into {{p|Houndstone}}.

==Trivia==
* Greavard and its evolution were designed by [[Kazuyuki Kurashima]].<ref>[https://twitter.com/kurashimakaz/status/1604174633065816066 Kazuyuki Kurashima on Twitter]</ref><ref>[https://twitter.com/kurashimakaz/status/1604180891311280129 Kazuyuki Kurashima on Twitter]</ref>
* Greavard, along with {{p|Shedinja}}, {{p|Duskull}}, and {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Yamask}}, has the lowest base {{stat|Special Attack}} stat of all {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon.
* Greavard is tied with {{p|Cleffa}} and {{p|Pawmi}} for having the shortest Japanese name of all Pokémon, being spelt with only two kana.
* Greavard was first teased on October 24, 2022, through a video on the official Pokémon Twitter account, which briefly showed it in its buried state.<ref>[https://twitter.com/Pokemon/status/1584600698028969984 Tweet by Pokémon (@Pokemon).] Posted on October 24, 2022.</ref> It was properly revealed on October 25, 2022.<ref>"[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PF5UzdmOzPs A new Ghost-type Pokémon appeared in Paldea!]" [https://www.youtube.com/c/pokemon The Official Pokémon YouTube Channel]. ''YouTube''.</ref>

===Origin===
Greavard seems to be mainly based on the Iberian {{wp|Catalan Sheepdog}}, but could also take inspiration other long-haired dog breeds such as the {{wp|Briard}} or the {{wp|Komondor}}. Its habit of burying itself underground and popping out to surprise people is reminiscent of depictions of the {{wp|undead}} rising from their graves. In its buried state, the candle-like protrusion above its head appears to be a stand-in for a {{wp|grave candle}} and also resembles a {{wp|bone}}.

Greavard may also be based on various of the numerous dogs from {{wp|Spanish mythology|Spanish mythology and folklore}}, such as the {{wp|Pesanta}} or the {{wp|Dip (Catalan myth)|Dip}}, dog-shaped spirits from {{wp|Catalan myths and legends|Catalan mythology}} known for draining human vitality. The long white fur and the grave candle may also point to the {{wp|Santa Compaña}} as a possible origin, as they are wearing white, hooded cloaks and carrying candles.

Greavard's candle and dog-like appearance may be a reference to the process of {{wp|Rendering (animal products)|rendering}} animal fat into {{wp|tallow}}, which was historically used to make candles and leaves behind a solid material called greaves that is often used as dog food.

====Name origin====
Greavard may be a combination of ''graveyard'', ''grieve'', ''{{wp|Tallow|greaves}}'' (a byproduct of a historical method of candlemaking; typically used as dog food), and ''{{wp|Briard}}'' (a long-haired dog breed).

Bochi may be derived from 墓地 ''bochi'' (graveyard). It may also derive from ポチ ''Pochi'' (a common name for a pet dog in Japan) or ひとりぼっち ''hitoribocchi'' (loneliness).

'''Fidough''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''パピモッチ''' ''Pupimocchi'') is a {{type|Fairy}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Dachsbun}} starting at [[level]] 26.

==Biology==
[[File:Fidough exhaling yeast.png|250px|thumb|left|Fidough exhaling yeast]]
Fidough is a small canine {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a large head and stubby legs. The head contains small, black beady eyes with rounded eyebrow-like growths on top; a snout with a rounded triangular nose and a tiny mouth; and rounded ears that resemble {{wp|pastry|pastries}} or bread {{wp|bun}}s. Fidough has a large dewlap on its neck, on which it is able to rest its head while sleeping. Its back has multiple protrusions that resemble a braid, and its tail is composed of two bulbous segments. Its fur is off-white in coloration, with yellow accents on the top of its head, its eyebrows, the insides of its ears, around its neck, and on its tail.
Fidough's smooth, moist skin is firm yet soft to the touch, and has elastic qualities; when agitated, Fidough will puff itself up to appear larger, in an attempt to intimidate its opponents. Fidough's breath contains yeast and is used to ferment things. Fidough has long been considered a companion for humanity, because its yeast is useful for cooking.<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/fidough/ Fidough — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet | Official Website]</ref>

===Evolution===
Fidough evolves into {{p|Dachsbun}}.

==Trivia==
* Fidough shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Growlithe}}, {{p|Lillipup}}, {{p|Rockruff}}, and {{p|Yamper}}. They are all known as the Puppy Pokémon.

===Origin===
Fidough resembles a {{wp|puppy}} — most closely resembling the {{wp|dachshund}} breed of dog because of its elongated body and short legs — made from dessert dough. The dessert may be based on the ''{{wp|Mollete de Antequera}}'', a typical Andalusian bread; or the ''{{wp|Ensaïmada|Ensaïmada}}'', a type of Spanish pastry shaped like a spiral. The two concepts together may be a pun on the phrase "{{wp|purebred}}" — a term used to recognise dogs of consistent genetic lineage — as it is pronounced like "pure bread".

====Name origin====
Fidough may be a combination of ''Fido'' (a stereotypical name for a pet dog), ''{{wp|filo}}'', and ''dough''.

Pupimocchi may be a combination of ''puppy'' and もっちり ''mocchiri'' (doughy, springy) or 餅 ''{{wp|mochi}}'' (Japanese rice cake).

'''Hydrapple''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カミツオロチ''' ''Kamitsuorochi'') is a dual-type {{2t|Grass|Dragon}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]], with [[The Indigo Disk]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Dipplin}} when [[level]]ed up while knowing {{m|Dragon Cheer}}. It is one of {{p|Applin}}'s final forms, the others being {{p|Flapple}} and {{p|Appletun}}.

==Biology==
Hydrapple is a Pokémon which comprises seven separate snake-like entities, known as "syrpents", living together inside a large, red syrup structure shaped like an apple. Each syrpent has yellow, leaf-shaped eyes, a long, green body with a pale yellow underside, and a tail tipped with green, leaf-like ornaments. Only three of the seven syrpents are always visible outside of the syrup: the one on the center acting as the "primary" head commanding the entire group, and two on the Pokémon's rear acting as its tails. The centermost syrpent has the longest body out of all the syrpents, and is further distinguished by its two horns, with the left one having an apple stuck on it. Sometimes, the other four syrpents composing Hydrapple may emerge out of the syrup, making the Pokémon appear to have five heads.

Each individual syrpent that forms Hydrapple has an unstable mood. Rarely, all of the syrpents will have their moods aligned, which lets them unleash their true power.

Hydrapple is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Fickle Beam}}.

===Side game data===
===Evolution===
===Sprites===

==Trivia==
* Hydrapple is the only evolution of {{p|Applin}} to be a third stage evolution.

===Origin===
Hydrapple seems to be based on {{wp|Ladon (mythology)|Ladon}}, the multi-headed serpent-like dragon from {{wp|Greek mythology}} that guarded the {{wp|Golden apple|golden apples}} in the {{wp|Hesperides|Garden of the Hesperides}}, historically said to be located in the {{wp|Iberian Peninsula}} or the {{wp|Canary Islands}}, thus explaining its connection to Paldea. Like its evolutionary relatives, Hydrapple also appears to be based on the popular image of a worm burrowing into an apple, as well as a pun on the {{wp|wyrm}}, a type of dragon — hence its {{t|Dragon}} typing. Like its pre-evolution Dipplin, Hydrapple has visual similarities with {{wp|candy apple}}s and {{wp|caramel apple}}s. Hydrapple also appears to be based on the {{wp|Lernaean Hydra}}, a many-headed serpentine monster from {{wp|Greek mythology}}; and the {{wp|Yamata no Orochi}}, an eight-headed dragon or serpent from {{wp|Japanese mythology}}.

The connection between the syrpents and the apple present in Hydrapple's design could draw inspiration from the {{wp|Christian mythology|Christian myth}} of the {{wp|Original sin|original sin}}, where is a {{wp|Serpents in the Bible|serpent}} the one who makes Eve bite the {{wp|Forbidden fruit}}, commonly represented as an {{wp|Apple (symbolism)|apple}} due to the influence of the previously mentioned Hesperides myth. Along these lines, Hydrapple's seven syrpents could then reference the number of {{wp|Seven deadly sins|cardinal sins}}, as well as the {{wp|The Beast (Revelation)|seven-headed dragon}} from the {{wp|Book of Revelation}}.

====Name origin====
Hydrapple may be a combination of ''{{wp|Lernaean Hydra|Hydra}}'' and ''apple''.

Kamitsuorochi may be a combination of 果 ''ka'' (fruit), 花蜜 ''kamitsu'' (nectar), and 八岐大蛇 ''{{wp|Yamata no Orochi}}''.

===Side game data===
===Evolution===
===Sprites===

==Trivia==
* Hydrapple is the only evolution of {{p|Applin}} to be a third stage evolution.

===Origin===
Hydrapple seems to be based on {{wp|Ladon (mythology)|Ladon}}, the multi-headed serpent-like dragon from {{wp|Greek mythology}} that guarded the {{wp|Golden apple|golden apples}} in the {{wp|Hesperides|Garden of the Hesperides}}, historically said to be located in the {{wp|Iberian Peninsula}} or the {{wp|Canary Islands}}, thus explaining its connection to Paldea. Like its evolutionary relatives, Hydrapple also appears to be based on the popular image of a worm burrowing into an apple, as well as a pun on the {{wp|wyrm}}, a type of dragon — hence its {{t|Dragon}} typing. Like its pre-evolution Dipplin, Hydrapple has visual similarities with {{wp|candy apple}}s and {{wp|caramel apple}}s. Hydrapple also appears to be based on the {{wp|Lernaean Hydra}}, a many-headed serpentine monster from {{wp|Greek mythology}}; and the {{wp|Yamata no Orochi}}, an eight-headed dragon or serpent from {{wp|Japanese mythology}}.

The connection between the syrpents and the apple present in Hydrapple's design could draw inspiration from the {{wp|Christian mythology|Christian myth}} of the {{wp|Original sin|original sin}}, where is a {{wp|Serpents in the Bible|serpent}} the one who makes Eve bite the {{wp|Forbidden fruit}}, commonly represented as an {{wp|Apple (symbolism)|apple}} due to the influence of the previously mentioned Hesperides myth. Along these lines, Hydrapple's seven heads could then reference the number of {{wp|Seven deadly sins|cardinal sins}}, as well as the {{wp|The Beast (Revelation)|seven-headed dragon}} from the {{wp|Book of Revelation}}.

====Name origin====
Hydrapple may be a combination of ''{{wp|Lernaean Hydra|Hydra}}'' and ''apple''.

Kamitsuorochi may be a combination of 果 ''ka'' (fruit), 花蜜 ''kamitsu'' (nectar), and 八岐大蛇 ''{{wp|Yamata no Orochi}}''.

'''Hydrapple''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カミツオロチ''' ''Kamitsuorochi'') is a dual-type {{2t|Grass|Dragon}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]], with [[The Indigo Disk]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Dipplin}} when [[level]]ed up while knowing {{m|Dragon Cheer}}. It is one of {{p|Applin}}'s final forms, the others being {{p|Flapple}} and {{p|Appletun}}.

==Biology==
Hydrapple is a Pokémon which comprises seven separate snake-like entities, known as "syrpents", living together inside a large, red syrup structure shaped like an apple. Each syrpent has yellow, leaf-shaped eyes, a long, green body with a pale yellow underside, and a tail tipped with green, leaf-like ornaments. Only three of the seven syrpents are always visible outside of the syrup: the one on the center acting as the "primary" head commanding the entire group, and two on the Pokémon's rear acting as its tails. The centermost syrpent has the longest body out of all the syrpents, and is further distinguished by its two horns, with the left one having an apple stuck on it. Sometimes, the other four syrpents composing Hydrapple may emerge out of the syrup, making the Pokémon appear to have five heads.

Each individual syrpent that forms Hydrapple has an unstable mood. Rarely, all of the syrpents will have their moods aligned, which lets them unleash their true power.

Hydrapple is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Fickle Beam}}.

'''Hydrapple''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カミツオロチ''' ''Kamitsuorochi'') is a dual-type {{2t|Grass|Dragon}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]], with [[The Indigo Disk]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Dipplin}} when [[level]]ed up while knowing {{m|Dragon Cheer}}. It is one of {{p|Applin}}'s final forms, the others being {{p|Flapple}} and {{p|Appletun}}.

==Biology==
Hydrapple is a Pokémon which comprises seven separate snake-like entities, known as "syrpents", living together inside a large, red syrup structure shaped like an apple. Each syrpent has yellow, leaf-shaped eyes, a long, green body with a pale yellow underside, and a tail tipped with green, leaf-like ornaments. Only three of the seven syrpents are always visible outside of the syrup: the one on the center acting as the "primary" head commanding the entire group, and two on the Pokémon's rear acting as its tails. The centermost syrpent has the longest body out of all the syrpents, and is further distinguished by its two horns, with the left one having an apple stuck on it. Sometimes, the other four syrpents composing Hydrapple may emerge out of the syrup, making the Pokémon appear to have five heads.

Each individual syrpent that forms Hydrapple has an unstable mood. Rarely, all of the syrpents will have their moods aligned, which lets them unleash their true power.

Hydrapple is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Fickle Beam}}.

===Side game data===
===Evolution===
===Sprites===

==Trivia==
* Hydrapple is the only evolution of {{p|Applin}} to be a third stage evolution.

===Origin===
Hydrapple seems to be based on {{wp|Ladon (mythology)|Ladon}}, the multi-headed serpent-like dragon from {{wp|Greek mythology}} that guarded the {{wp|Golden apple|golden apples}} in the {{wp|Hesperides|Garden of the Hesperides}}, historically said to be located in the {{wp|Iberian Peninsula}} or the {{wp|Canary Islands}}, thus explaining its connection to Paldea. Like its evolutionary relatives, Hydrapple also appears to be based on the popular image of a worm burrowing into an apple, as well as a pun on the {{wp|wyrm}}, a type of dragon — hence its {{t|Dragon}} typing. Like its pre-evolution Dipplin, Hydrapple has visual similarities with {{wp|candy apple}}s and {{wp|caramel apple}}s. Hydrapple also appears to be based on the {{wp|Lernaean Hydra}}, a many-headed serpentine monster from {{wp|Greek mythology}}; and the {{wp|Yamata no Orochi}}, an eight-headed dragon or serpent from {{wp|Japanese mythology}}.

The connection between the syrpents and the apple present in Hydrapple's design could draw inspiration from the {{wp|Christian mythology|Christian myth}} of the {{wp|Original sin|original sin}}, where is a {{wp|Serpents in the Bible|serpent}} the one who makes Eve bite the {{wp|Forbidden fruit}}, commonly represented as an {{wp|Apple (symbolism)|apple}} due to the influence of the previously mentioned Hesperides myth. Along these lines, Hydrapple's seven heads could reference the {{wp|Seven deadly sins|seven deadly sins}}, as well as the {{wp|The Beast (Revelation)|seven-headed dragon}} from the {{wp|Book of Revelation}}.

====Name origin====
Hydrapple may be a combination of ''{{wp|Lernaean Hydra|Hydra}}'' and ''apple''.

Kamitsuorochi may be a combination of 果 ''ka'' (fruit), 花蜜 ''kamitsu'' (nectar), and 八岐大蛇 ''{{wp|Yamata no Orochi}}''.

===Side game data===
===Evolution===
===Sprites===

==Trivia==
* Hydrapple is the only evolution of {{p|Applin}} to be a third stage evolution.

===Origin===
Hydrapple seems to be based on {{wp|Ladon (mythology)|Ladon}}, the multi-headed serpent-like dragon from {{wp|Greek mythology}} that guarded the {{wp|Golden apple|golden apples}} in the {{wp|Hesperides|Garden of the Hesperides}}, historically said to be located in the Iberian Peninsula or the Canary Islands. Like its evolutionary relatives, Hydrapple also appears to be based on the popular image of a worm burrowing into an apple, as well as a pun on the {{wp|wyrm}}, a type of dragon — hence its {{t|Dragon}} typing. Like its pre-evolution Dipplin, Hydrapple has visual similarities with {{wp|candy apple}}s and {{wp|caramel apple}}s. Hydrapple also appears to be based on the {{wp|Lernaean Hydra}}, a many-headed serpentine monster from {{wp|Greek mythology}}; and the {{wp|Yamata no Orochi}}, an eight-headed dragon or serpent from {{wp|Japanese mythology}}.

====Name origin====
Hydrapple may be a combination of ''{{wp|Lernaean Hydra|Hydra}}'' and ''apple''.

Kamitsuorochi may be a combination of 果 ''ka'' (fruit), 花蜜 ''kamitsu'' (nectar), and 八岐大蛇 ''{{wp|Yamata no Orochi}}''.

'''Quaquaval''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ウェーニバル''' ''Wanival'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Fighting}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Quaxwell}} starting at [[level]] 36. It is the final form of {{p|Quaxly}}.

==Biology==
[[File:Quaquaval tail SV.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Quaquaval's water feathers]]
Quaquaval is a humanoid Pokémon resembling a waterfowl. Its plumage is mostly dark blue, except for the light blue on its shoulders and tail, along with the white on its head, neck, chest, and individual tail feathers. Its face has blue eyes and a pointed yellow beak. Atop its head is a large, flowing, slick, dark blue crest, with long light blue and orange-red feathers at the front, separating the crest from the head. Its forearms have three sets of feathers, each tipped with light blue; and it has what resembles hands with three "fingers" each. Additional light blue accents decorate its waist and legs. Its yellow feet have bulbous segments with three toes each; the front-most segments are orange in color. It has a defined rump and an elaborate-looking tail, with a circular base and three teardrop-shaped feathers decorating it at the top, along with two chains consisting of three feathers flanking it on either side.

In battle, Quaquaval is accompanied with a series of teardrop-shaped decorative water feathers, which are ejected from the organs on its tail feathers and fanned out behind its back. When attacking, these water feathers move forward and spin around Quaquaval's body, making a buzzsaw-like arrangement that it uses to slice into its enemies. Quaquaval's legs are well-trained and have incredible strength, being able to launch a truck away with a single kick. It uses its legs to perform dance moves, some of which appear to be based on dances from faraway lands.<ref name=SVsite/> Quaquaval is viewed by {{p|Tsareena}} as its rival.

Quaquaval has a cheerful and energetic disposition, dancing away no matter what situation it faces. However, it is also stoic and very serious, especially when it comes to consistently polishing its skills. It can become very focused during critical situations.<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/quaquaval/ Quaquaval — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet | Official Website]</ref>

Quaquaval is the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Aqua Step}}.

===Evolution===
Quaquaval evolves from {{p|Quaxwell}} and is the final form of {{p|Quaxly}}.

==Trivia==

===Origin===
Quaquaval may be primarily based on a {{wp|peacock}}, as its coloration and water feathers around its tail, which are visually and functionally based on the {{wp|covert feather|train}} of said bird, suggest; as well as on the Iberian {{wp|red-knobbed coot}}, with whom it shares the lobed feet and the red head ornamentation. The {{wp|Crested (duck breed)|crested duck}} or {{wp|Roman goose}} could also take part of its inspiration. The association between ducks or geese and peacocks could date to ancient Rome, where both the crested goose and the peacock were sacred animals of the goddess {{wp|Juno (mythology)|Juno}}.

Quaquaval may also took inspiration on carnivalesque performers, such as those from the {{wp|Carnival of Santa Cruz de Tenerife}} in the Canary Islands, which are known for their distance from the Iberian Peninsula despite still being part of Spain; thing referenced in Quaquaval's Pokédex entries with the mentions to far-away lands. Considering its dancelike movements and exuberant plumage, Quaquaval particularly resembles the {{wp|pt:Escola de samba#A corte da bateria|rainha de bateria}} dancer allegory from the {{wp|Rio Carnival}}, in {{wp|Brazil}}. The carnival dance it performs could be inspired by {{wp|Samba (Brazilian dance)|samba}}, an Afro-Brazilian dance often associated with the national identity of Brazil. Its Fighting type and [[signature move]], {{m|Aqua Step}}, may be based on {{wp|capoeira}}, a martial art that combines elements of dance which also originated in Brazil.

Quaquaval could also be inspired by the {{wp|Basque mythology|Basque}} {{wp|Lamia (Basque mythology)|Lamia}}, a duck-footed woman-like cryptid known for living around rivers, where they would often comb their hair.

====Name origin====
Quaquaval may be a combination of ''quá-quá'' (Portuguese onomatopoeia for duck sounds), ''aqua'', and ''carnaval'' (Spanish and Portuguese for carnival). The name also appears to draw from the adjective ''quaquaversal'', referring to a pattern that radiates in all directions from a common center; such is the case for the water feathers that fan out from Quaquaval's tail during battle.

Wanival may be a combination of ''wave'' and ''carnival''.

Quaquaval (Pokémon)

2023-12-13T03:36:16Z

Toucannon733: /* Origin */The far-away lands mention is an obvious reference to the Canary Islands. If it were really a Brasil reference, then I don't see why they wouldn't have said the same thing for Skeledirge or Meowscarada, that, as well as Quaquaval, get part of their designs inspired by American festivities.

==Biology==
[[File:Quaquaval tail SV.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Quaquaval's water feathers]]
Quaquaval is a humanoid Pokémon resembling a waterfowl. Its plumage is mostly dark blue, except for the light blue on its shoulders and tail, along with the white on its head, neck, chest, and individual tail feathers. Its face has blue eyes and a pointed yellow beak. Atop its head is a large, flowing, slick, dark blue crest, with long light blue and orange-red feathers at the front, separating the crest from the head. Its forearms have three sets of feathers, each tipped with light blue; and it has what resembles hands with three "fingers" each. Additional light blue accents decorate its waist and legs. Its yellow feet have bulbous segments with three toes each; the front-most segments are orange in color. It has a defined rump and an elaborate-looking tail, with a circular base and three teardrop-shaped feathers decorating it at the top, along with two chains consisting of three feathers flanking it on either side.

In battle, Quaquaval is accompanied with a series of teardrop-shaped decorative water feathers, which are ejected from the organs on its tail feathers and fanned out behind its back. When attacking, these water feathers move forward and spin around Quaquaval's body, making a buzzsaw-like arrangement that it uses to slice into its enemies. Quaquaval's legs are well-trained and have incredible strength, being able to launch a truck away with a single kick. It uses its legs to perform dance moves, some of which appear to be based on dances from faraway lands.<ref name=SVsite/> Quaquaval is viewed by {{p|Tsareena}} as its rival.

Quaquaval has a cheerful and energetic disposition, dancing away no matter what situation it faces. However, it is also stoic and very serious, especially when it comes to consistently polishing its skills. It can become very focused during critical situations.<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/quaquaval/ Quaquaval — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet | Official Website]</ref>

==Trivia==

===Origin===
Quaquaval may be primarily based on a {{wp|peacock}}, as its coloration and water feathers around its tail, which are visually and functionally based on the {{wp|covert feather|train}} of said bird, suggest, as well as on the Iberian {{wp|red-knobbed coot}}, with whom it shares the lobed feet and the red head ornamentation. The {{wp|Crested (duck breed)|crested duck}} or {{wp|Roman goose}} could also take part of its inspiration. The association between ducks or geese and peacocks could date to ancient Rome, where both the crested goose and the peacock were sacred animals of the goddess {{wp|Juno (mythology)|Juno}}.

Quaquaval may also took inspiration on carnivalesque performers, such as those from the {{wp|Carnival of Santa Cruz de Tenerife}} in the Canary Islands, which are known for their distance from the Iberian Peninsula despite still being part of Spain; thing referenced in Quaquaval's Pokédex entries with the mentions to far-away lands. Considering its dancelike movements and exuberant plumage, Quaquaval particularly resembles the {{wp|pt:Escola de samba#A corte da bateria|rainha de bateria}} dancer allegory from the {{wp|Rio Carnival}}, in {{wp|Brazil}}. The carnival dance it performs could be inspired by {{wp|Samba (Brazilian dance)|samba}}, an Afro-Brazilian dance often associated with the national identity of Brazil. Its Fighting type and [[signature move]], {{m|Aqua Step}}, may be based on {{wp|capoeira}}, a martial art that combines elements of dance which also originated in Brazil.

Quaquaval could also be inspired by the {{wp|Basque mythology|Basque}} {{wp|Lamia (Basque mythology)|Lamia}}, a duck-footed woman-like cryptid known for living around rivers, where they would often comb their hair.

====Name origin====
Quaquaval may be a combination of ''quá-quá'' (Portuguese onomatopoeia for duck sounds), ''aqua'', and ''carnaval'' (Spanish and Portuguese for carnival). The name also appears to draw from the adjective ''quaquaversal'', referring to a pattern that radiates in all directions from a common center; such is the case for the water feathers that fan out from Quaquaval's tail during battle.

Wanival may be a combination of ''wave'' and ''carnival''.

==Trivia==

===Origin===
Quaquaval may be primarily based on a {{wp|peacock}}, as its coloration and water feathers around its tail, which are visually and functionally based on the {{wp|covert feather|train}} of said bird, suggest, as well as on the Iberian {{wp|red-knobbed coot}}, with whom it shares the lobed feet and the red head ornamentation. The {{wp|Crested (duck breed)|crested duck}} or {{wp|Roman goose}} could also take part of its inspiration. The association between ducks or geese and peacocks could date to ancient Rome, where both the crested goose and the peacock were sacred animals of the goddess {{wp|Juno (mythology)|Juno}}.

Quaquaval may also took inspiration on carnivalesque performers, such as those from the {{wp|Carnival of Santa Cruz de Tenerife}} in the Canary Islands. Considering its dancelike movements and exuberant plumage, Quaquaval particularly resembles the {{wp|pt:Escola de samba#A corte da bateria|rainha de bateria}} dancer allegory from the {{wp|Rio Carnival}}, in {{wp|Brazil}}. The carnival dance it performs could be inspired by {{wp|Samba (Brazilian dance)|samba}}, an Afro-Brazilian dance often associated with the national identity of Brazil. Its Fighting type and [[signature move]], {{m|Aqua Step}}, may be based on {{wp|capoeira}}, a martial art that combines elements of dance which also originated in Brazil. Its overall carnivalesque themes and references to Brazil could also be implied on its Pokédex entries, which state its dancing performances are evocative of far-away lands.

Quaquaval could also be inspired by the {{wp|Basque mythology|Basque}} {{wp|Lamia (Basque mythology)|Lamia}}, a duck-footed woman-like cryptid known for living around rivers, where they would often comb their hair.

====Name origin====
Quaquaval may be a combination of ''quá-quá'' (Portuguese onomatopoeia for duck sounds), ''aqua'', and ''carnaval'' (Spanish and Portuguese for carnival). The name also appears to draw from the adjective ''quaquaversal'', referring to a pattern that radiates in all directions from a common center; such is the case for the water feathers that fan out from Quaquaval's tail during battle.

Wanival may be a combination of ''wave'' and ''carnival''.

'''Inteleon''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''インテレオン''' ''Intereon'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VIII]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Drizzile}} starting at [[level]] 35. It is the final form of {{p|Sobble}}.

Inteleon can [[Gigantamax]] into '''Gigantamax Inteleon''' if it has the {{DL|Gigantamax|Gigantamax Factor}}. Gigantamax Inteleon was introduced in [[The Isle of Armor]].

==Biology==
Inteleon is a bipedal, reptilian {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that resembles a chameleon. Its head, slender arms, and tail are light blue in coloration, with its tail having a thin dark blue streak following the ridge of the tail. This dark blue coloration is also seen at the tip of his head crest and on its slender torso, which continues down the backside of its legs until the bottom of the feet. The front side of its legs and feet are black, ending in three-pointed toes. Its hands are also black and have five fingers. Its eyes have yellow irises and white pupils, with a black lower lid and a yellow upper lid. Its membrane is also yellow; this membrane forms a thin, wavy, fin-like crest on its head, and connects to the back of its neck before falling over its back in a cape-like fashion. It has a white diamond-shaped patch of skin on its stomach.

Inteleon has many hidden capabilities. It has darkly-colored {{wp|nictitating membrane}}s that allow it to analyze for an opponent's weak point. This helps it precisely shoot water from its fingertips at Mach 3. The membrane on its back is extendable, and allows it to glide in the air. It also has a sharp knife hidden in its tail. Inteleon is highly intelligent, carefully thinking out strategies before entering combat to ensure a swift and decisive victory. It is also known to be quite chivalrous and is completely loyal to {{pkmn|Trainers}} it sees as worthy.<ref> [https://swordshield.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon-galar-region/inteleon/ Inteleon | Official Website | Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield]</ref> As seen in the anime, Inteleon has the ability to camouflage itself like its pre-evolved forms and has access to {{wp|infrared vision}}. Inteleon is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Snipe Shot}}.

===Forms===
Inteleon can [[Gigantamax]] into Gigantamax Inteleon.

Gigantamax Inteleon's body is barely larger than its regular form, but its tail has extended to over 130 feet (40 meters), stretching out vertically to resemble a tower. The tail has dark purplish blue frills circling around it, and coils around near its base to form a platform for Gigantamax Inteleon to take a battle position on. Gigantamax Inteleon also gains a small blue harpoon made of water, that it uses to launch attacks by attaching it to one of its index fingers. Its eyes have black sclerae, red irises, and pink pupils. Three red clouds circle around the tail a short distance below the coiled tail platform.

As a result of Gigantamaxing, Inteleon's many hidden body tools have been enhanced. Gigantamax Inteleon can detect and gauge temperature, air pressure, wind and humidity with its crest and nictitating membranes. Together with its sharp mind, this extremely skilled sniper can figure out how to use gravity for a precise trajectory shot, fired at Mach 7. This allows it to hit even a moving [[Berry]] that is 9 miles (15 kilometers) away.<ref>[https://swordshield.pokemon.com/en-us/expansionpass/pokemon/gigantamax-inteleon/ Gigantamax Inteleon | Official Website | Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield]</ref>

Gigantamax Inteleon is the only known Pokémon capable of using the [[G-Max Move]] {{m|G-Max Hydrosnipe}}.

==Trivia==
===Origin===
Inteleon appears to be mainly based on {{wp|Basiliscus (genus)|basilisk lizards}} due to the similar crests, body type and bipedal standing, which said lizards adopt to run across the surface of the water. It seems to also take inspiration from {{wp|chameleon}}s, specifically the {{wp|veiled chameleon}}, due to the similar crest and color scheme to that of the males. Inteleon's appearance seems to also be heavily influenced by lizards of the ''{{wp|Draco (genus)|Draco}}'' genus (also known as flying lizards), with its less curly tail, and its crest and back membrane resembling the dewlap and patagial membranes found in the genus. Much like Inteleon, flying lizards use their membranes to glide.

Furthermore, Inteleon seems to exhibit the motif of spies and secret agents, especially British intelligence. The coloring on its body resembles a tuxedo and trousers, and it uses many tools that spies are often depicted using, such as guns, knives and hang gliders. This connection with spies may derive from the chameleon's purported ability to camouflage.

Inteleon's [[Gigantamax]] form seems to draw inspiration from a {{wp|sniper}} aiming from a rooftop or a watchtower.

====Name origin====
Inteleon and Intereon may be a combination of ''intelligence'' and ''chameleon''.

'''Annihilape''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''コノヨザル''' ''Konoyozaru'') is a dual-type {{2t|Fighting|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Primeape}} when [[level]]ed up after using {{m|Rage Fist}} 20 times. It is the final form of {{p|Mankey}}.

(Refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data→Evolution data]] for more details.)

==Biology==
[[File:Annihilape fist.png|150px|thumb|left|Annihilape increasing the size of its unshackled arm, note the raised eyebrows as well.]]
Annihilape is a simian Pokémon with a round body that is situated on two thick, black legs. It is covered in shaggy grey fur that streams upward and seems to evaporate. Its shaggy eyebrows usually hang down but tend to stream upwards while Annihilape is in battle. Unlike Primeape and Mankey, Annihilape's skin is a dark grey. The metal shackle on its left arm is broken while it appears to have no shackle at all on the right arm. It is also able to greatly increase the size of its unshackled arm. Annihilape has three fingered hands and two-toed feet. There are multiple throbbing veins on the left side of its face. Its eyes are red as if the creature were in an extreme rage.

Annihilape evolved from Primeape when the rage in its soul became too much for its physical form to contain; it gained increased power as a result of its spirit no longer being limited by the flesh. The rage that was bubbling inside fills its punches with force that frightens its targets to their core.

Annihilape and its pre-evolved form, {{p|Primeape}}, are the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move {{m|Rage Fist}}.

===Evolution===
Annihilape evolves from {{p|Primeape}} and is the final form of {{p|Mankey}}.

(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data→Evolution data]].)

==Trivia==

===Origin===
Similar to its pre-evolutions, Annihilape seems to take inspiration from primates, particularly {{wp|Barbary macaques in Gibraltar|Gibraltar barbary macaques}}, but it could also take inspiration from {{wp|snub-nosed monkey}}s, {{wp|Japanese macaque}}s, and {{wp|baboon}}s, sharing with the latter the pig-like nose, proportions, and propensity for rage. Its general concept and added {{type|Ghost}} may have been inspired by {{p|Primeape}}'s [[Pokédex]] entry in {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Pokémon Sun}}, which states that Primeape can become so angry that it dies as a result. Additionally, it seems to be inspired by {{wp|onryō}}, vengeful spirits from Japanese folklore. It may take additional inspiration from the {{wp|Basajaun}}, a hairy apelike being from Basque folklore.

====Name origin====
Annihilape may be a combination of ''annihilate'' and ''ape''.

Konoyozaru may be a combination of この世を去る ''kono yo o saru'' (to leave this world; to die) and 猿 ''saru'' (monkey).

'''Quaquaval''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ウェーニバル''' ''Wanival'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Fighting}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Quaxwell}} starting at [[level]] 36. It is the final form of {{p|Quaxly}}.

==Biology==
[[File:Quaquaval tail SV.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Quaquaval's water feathers]]
Quaquaval is a humanoid Pokémon resembling a waterfowl. Its plumage is mostly dark blue, except for the light blue on its shoulders and tail, along with the white on its head, neck, chest, and individual tail feathers. Its face has blue eyes and a pointed yellow beak. Atop its head is a large, flowing, slick, dark blue crest, with long light blue and orange-red feathers at the front, separating the crest from the head. Its forearms have three sets of feathers, each tipped with light blue; and it has what resembles hands with three "fingers" each. Additional light blue accents decorate its waist and legs. Its yellow feet have bulbous segments with three toes each; the front-most segments are orange in color. It has a defined rump and an elaborate-looking tail, with a circular base and three teardrop-shaped feathers decorating it at the top, along with two chains consisting of three feathers flanking it on either side.

In battle, Quaquaval is accompanied with a series of teardrop-shaped decorative water feathers, which are ejected from the organs on its tail feathers and fanned out behind its back. When attacking, these water feathers move forward and spin around Quaquaval's body, making a buzzsaw-like arrangement that it uses to slice into its enemies. Quaquaval's legs are well-trained and have incredible strength, being able to launch a truck away with a single kick. It uses its legs to perform dance moves, some of which appear to be based on dances from faraway lands.<ref name=SVsite/> Quaquaval is viewed by {{p|Tsareena}} as its rival.

Quaquaval has a cheerful and energetic disposition, dancing away no matter what situation it faces. However, it is also stoic and very serious, especially when it comes to consistently polishing its skills. It can become very focused during critical situations.<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/quaquaval/ Quaquaval — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet | Official Website]</ref>

Quaquaval is the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Aqua Step}}.

===Evolution===
Quaquaval evolves from {{p|Quaxwell}} and is the final form of {{p|Quaxly}}.

==Trivia==

===Origin===
Quaquaval may be primarily based on a {{wp|peacock}}, as its coloration and water feathers around its tail, which are visually and functionally based on the {{wp|covert feather|train}} of said bird, suggest, as well as on the Iberian {{wp|red-knobbed coot}}, with whom it shares the lobed feet and the red head ornamentation. The {{wp|Crested (duck breed)|crested duck}} or {{wp|Roman goose}} could also take part of its inspiration. The association between ducks or geese and peacocks could date to ancient Rome, where both the crested goose and the peacock were sacred animals of the goddess {{wp|Juno (mythology)|Juno}}.

Quaquaval may also took inspiration on carnivalesque performers, such as those from the {{wp|Carnival of Santa Cruz de Tenerife}} in the Canary Islands, which are known for their distance from the Iberian Peninsula despite being part of Spain; thing referenced in Quaquaval's Pokédex entries with the mentions to far-away lands. Considering its dancelike movements and exuberant plumage, Quaquaval particularly resembles the {{wp|pt:Escola de samba#A corte da bateria|rainha de bateria}} dancer allegory from the {{wp|Rio Carnival}} of {{wp|Brazil}}. The carnival dance it performs could be inspired by {{wp|Samba (Brazilian dance)|samba}}, an Afro-Brazilian dance that became part of the national identity of Brazil. Its Fighting type and [[signature move]], {{m|Aqua Step}}, may be based on {{wp|capoeira}}, a martial art that combines elements of dance which also originated in Brazil.

Quaquaval could also be inspired by the {{wp|Basque mythology|Basque}} {{wp|Lamia (Basque mythology)|Lamia}}, a duck-footed woman-like cryptid known for living around rivers, where they would often comb their hair.

====Name origin====
Quaquaval may be a combination of ''quá-quá'' (Portuguese onomatopoeia for duck sounds), ''aqua'', and ''carnaval'' (Spanish and Portuguese for carnival). The name also appears to draw from the adjective ''quaquaversal'', referring to a pattern that radiates in all directions from a common center; such is the case for the water feathers that fan out from Quaquaval's tail during battle.

Wanival may be a combination of ''wave'' and ''carnival''.

Toucannon733: /* Origin */Reverted Turtwig's fan contribution again. It makes no sense to talk about dinosaurs and birds separately when birds are already included in the Dinosauria clade.

'''Archaludon''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ブリジュラス''' ''Briduras'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Dragon}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]], with [[The Indigo Disk]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Duraludon}} via a currently unknown method.

==Biology==
Archaludon is a tall, metallic, bipedal dinosaur-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with an angular, cuboid body bent at its chest and hips. Its body is primarily cool gray, although it has dark blue colorations on its palms and soles, as well as dark blue platings on its face and underside. The underside plating has criss-crossing patterns on the torso, and two red stripes at the bottom, with three small notches on each of them. This plating extends past Archaludon's head at the sides, forming horn-like features tipped with red. There is a continuous protrusion running the length of Archaludon's spine, three pairs of zigzag patterns on its sides, and spikes on the back of its head and the tip of its large tail.

Archaludon's head is small compared to its body and is sunken into its neck. The plating on its face is T-shaped with a few indents on the sides, and folds down the middle to partially cover its yellow eyes. Its mouth, shaped into a permanent scowl, opens at the upper jaw and contains a grooved copper-colored tube, which it uses to fire beams to attack. When it closes its mouth, the tube is concealed and resembles teeth.

Archaludon's hands and feet are large and V-shaped, each of which are connected to cuboid forelimbs and have two rectangular digits. On these hands and feet, Archaludon has tall, retractable spires near the joints, with the spires on its feet usually retracted. These spires contain pointed, yellow terminals at their tips, which gather and store static electricity, as Archaludon is incapable of producing electricity on its own.<ref name=SVsite/> Similar terminal pairs are found on the spikes on Archaludon's head and tail.

When Archaludon faces danger, it will get down on all fours, straighten its body, retract its limbs, and fully extend the spires on its hands and feet, forming a shape that resembles a steel bridge. This position allows for less mobility but offers Archaludon a sturdier center of gravity. In this position, Archaludon is capable of using the static electricity stored in its terminals to fire a [[Electro Shot (move)|powerful beam of electric energy]].<ref name=SVsite/> When Archaludon charges up to fire this beam, electrical energy connects the terminals on its head, tail, and limbs, in a similar fashion to bridge suspension cables. During storms and other inclement weather, Archaludon's terminals can gather static electricity more easily, allowing it to fire off its beam much faster.<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/archaludon/ Archaludon — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet | Official Website]</ref>

==Trivia==
* Archaludon was revealed during the [[Pokémon Presents]] that aired on August 8th, 2023.<ref>"[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QiLe4pTHAE Pokémon Presents | 8.8.2023]" The Official Pokémon YouTube channel. ''YouTube''.</ref>

===Origin===
Archaludon appears to draw inspiration from {{wp|cable-stayed bridge}}s and {{wp|folding bridge}}s. Its legs resemble the Iberian {{wp|Guadiana International Bridge}}, while the X patterns might be a reference to the Portuguese {{wp|25 de Abril Bridge}}. Its theming of a literal dragon bridge, as well as its coloration could take inspiration from the Puente del Dragón, a popular {{wp|Seville|Sevillian}} monument from {{wp|Alcalá de Guadaíra}}, being also that Archaludon's back when standing on two legs loosely resembles the snake-like mouth of the dragon sculpture. The bent body resembles a staple remover. Additionally, its ability to {{m|Electro Shot|charge and fire blasts of electricity}} may be inspired by {{wp|railguns}}. It may be a play on words of {{wp|Archosaur}} (a clade of animals that includes non-avian dinosaurs, pterosaurs, crocodilians and birds), taking the "arch" ({{wp|arch bridge|a type of bridge}}) in its name literally. It might also pull from the fact that Unova, where Blueberry Academy is located, stands out for its number of bridges.

====Name origin====
Archaludon may be a combination of ''arch'' (meaning principal or superlative, as well as referring to {{wp|arch bridge|a type of bridge}}), ''{{p|Duraludon}}'', and possibly ''{{wp|Archosaur}}''.

Briduras may be derived from ''bridge'', ジュラルドン ''Duraludon'', and ソーラス ''-saurus'' (Greek-derived suffix for dinosaur names).

'''Maschiff''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''オラチフ''' ''Orachifu'') is a {{type|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Mabosstiff}} starting at [[level]] 30.

==Biology==
Maschiff is a brown, quadrupedal, canine Pokémon, with a dark gray snout and underside. It has a layer of thick fat under its skin that protects it from attacks. Its paws have four toes each. It has yellow tufts of fur on its head and back; the head fur makes the appearance of a crest. It also has a long, yellow, brushy tail. Its head has droopy triangular ears with yellow insides, and black beady eyes below two protuberances on its forehead that seemingly give it a constant anxious expression. Its snout contains a rounded triangular orange nose and a large mouth, with strong jaws and sharp fangs that can crush boulders.

Maschiff always tilts its head and makes a big scowl to appear threatening, although the display is highly ineffective even towards children.

==Trivia==

===Origin===
Maschiff seems to be based on a {{wp|puppy}} of the {{wp|mastiff}} breed of dogs, and more specifically the {{wp|Spanish Mastiff}}. The yellow fur on its back brings to mind youth or childhood, in contrast to the grey fur on its evolved form's back which brings to mind old age. The shape of the fur on its head resembles a {{wp|mohawk hairstyle}}, commonly associated with punk archetypes.

====Name origin====
Maschiff may be a combination of ''mastiff'' and ''mischief''.

Orachifu may be a combination of オラつく ''oratsuku'' (slang word to describe a rude or irreverent person) and マスチフ ''masuchifu'' (mastiff).

'''Mabosstiff''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''マフィティフ''' ''Mafitiff'') is a {{type|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Maschiff}} starting at [[level]] 30.

==Biology==
Mabosstiff is a large, canine Pokémon. Its coat is primarily gray, with blackish gray colorations on its underside, back, and around its face and eyes. It also has a stripe of light gray fur running down its spine. The stripe starts at its forehead, which forms the appearance of slicked back hair; and ends at its rear, forming a long, brushy tail. Mabosstiff is known to shed its fur frequently.

Mabosstiff's head is large with no discernible neck, and contains small, orange beady eyes; light gray eyebrows; additional light gray accents under its eyes; a rounded, triangular orange nose; and a mouth filled with sharp teeth. Mabosstiff has a large dewlap below its mouth, which allows it to store energy to drive back opponents.

Mabosstiff has a gentle temperament and loves playing with children. However, it will bare its teeth and take on an intimidating look when protecting its family.

===Evolution===
Mabosstiff evolves from {{p|Maschiff}}.

* {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}: Mabosstiff is [[Arven]]'s main Pokémon, which became injured in [[Area Zero]] by a [[Paradox Pokémon|strange creature]] while the two searched for his [[Professor Sada|mother]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Professor Turo|father]]{{sup/9|V}}. Unable to heal him with conventional means such as [[Pokémon Center]]s or [[Potion]]s, Arven began to search for the rumored [[Herba Mystica]] to restore his partner. Through the combined efforts of Arven and the player through the '''Path of Legends''' storyline, Mabosstiff is eventually restored to full health, after which he becomes a mainstay on his [[party|team]].

==Trivia==

===Origin===
Mabosstiff seems to be based on the {{wp|mastiff}} breeds of dog. Knowing it's first introduced in the Iberian based [[Paldea]], as well as its large build, coloration, and characteristically big dewlap, Mabosstiff particulary resembles the {{wp|Spanish Mastiff}}; although Mabosstiff also seems to have traits derived from other breeds of that type, such as the {{wp|Pyrenean Mastiff}} or the {{wp|Tibetan Mastiff}}, the latter one not being a real mastiff. The intimidatig and obscure appearance, along with the italienesque mafia theme presented on its design could have been inspired by the {{wp|Cane Corso|Italian Mastiff}}, another mastiff breed. Its friendly behavior around children and {{a|Guard Dog|signature Ability}} invoke the general image of {{wp|livestock guardian dog}}s, a type of dog known for their friendliness and bred to protect livestock from predators. Many livestock guardian dogs are mastiff breeds.

Mabosstiff's appearance, combined with its name, {{t|Dark}} type, and protective nature towards its family, may be derived from the archetypal looks and behaviors of leaders in organized crime families, such as the Italian {{wp|mafia}} and the Japanese {{wp|yakuza}}. It also slightly resembles an old person because of the grey eyebrows and fur on its head and back.

====Name origin====
Mabosstiff may be a combination of ''mafia'', ''mob'', ''boss'', and ''mastiff''.

Mafitiff may be a combination of ''mafia'' and ''mastiff''.

It also has a stripe of light gray fur running down its spine. The stripe starts at its forehead, which forms the appearance of slicked back hair; and ends at its rear, forming a long, brushy tail. Mabosstiff is known to shed its fur frequently.

Mabosstiff's head is large with no discernible neck, and contains small, orange beady eyes; light gray eyebrows; additional light gray accents under its eyes; a rounded, triangular orange nose; and a mouth filled with sharp teeth. Mabosstiff has a large dewlap below its mouth, which allows it to store energy to drive back opponents.

Mabosstiff has a gentle temperament and loves playing with children. However, it will bare its teeth and take on an intimidating look when protecting its family.

===Evolution===
Mabosstiff evolves from {{p|Maschiff}}.

* {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}: Mabosstiff is [[Arven]]'s main Pokémon, which became injured in [[Area Zero]] by a [[Paradox Pokémon|strange creature]] while the two searched for his [[Professor Sada|mother]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Professor Turo|father]]{{sup/9|V}}. Unable to heal him with conventional means such as [[Pokémon Center]]s or [[Potion]]s, Arven began to search for the rumored [[Herba Mystica]] to restore his partner. Through the combined efforts of Arven and the player through the '''Path of Legends''' storyline, Mabosstiff is eventually restored to full health, after which he becomes a mainstay on his [[party|team]].

==Trivia==

===Origin===
Mabosstiff seems to be based on the {{wp|mastiff}} breeds of dog. Knowing it's first introduced in Paldea, as well as its large build, coloration, and characteristically big dewlap, Mabosstiff particulary resembles the {{wp|Spanish Mastiff}}; although Mabosstiff also seems to have traits derived from other breeds of that type, such as the {{wp|Pyrenean Mastiff}} or the {{wp|Tibetan Mastiff}}, the latter one not being a real mastiff. The intimidatig and obscure appearance, along with the italienesque mafia theme presented on its design could have been inspired by the {{wp|Cane Corso|Italian Mastiff}}, another mastiff breed. Its friendly behavior around children and {{a|Guard Dog|signature Ability}} invoke the general image of {{wp|livestock guardian dog}}s, a type of dog known for their friendliness and bred to protect livestock from predators. Many livestock guardian dogs are mastiff breeds.

Mabosstiff's appearance, combined with its name, {{t|Dark}} type, and protective nature towards its family, may be derived from the archetypal looks and behaviors of leaders in organized crime families, such as the Italian {{wp|mafia}} and the Japanese {{wp|yakuza}}. It also slightly resembles an old person because of the grey eyebrows and fur on its head and back.

====Name origin====
Mabosstiff may be a combination of ''mafia'', ''mob'', ''boss'', and ''mastiff''.

Mafitiff may be a combination of ''mafia'' and ''mastiff''.

'''Archaludon''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ブリジュラス''' ''Briduras'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Dragon}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]], with [[The Indigo Disk]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Duraludon}} via a currently unknown method.

==Biology==
Archaludon is a tall, metallic, bipedal dinosaur-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with an angular, cuboid body bent at its chest and hips. Its body is primarily cool gray, although it has dark blue colorations on its palms and soles, as well as dark blue platings on its face and underside. The underside plating has criss-crossing patterns on the torso, and two red stripes at the bottom, with three small notches on each of them. This plating extends past Archaludon's head at the sides, forming horn-like features tipped with red. There is a continuous protrusion running the length of Archaludon's spine, three pairs of zigzag patterns on its sides, and spikes on the back of its head and the tip of its large tail.

Archaludon's head is small compared to its body and is sunken into its neck. The plating on its face is T-shaped with a few indents on the sides, and folds down the middle to partially cover its yellow eyes. Its mouth, shaped into a permanent scowl, opens at the upper jaw and contains a grooved copper-colored tube, which it uses to fire beams to attack. When it closes its mouth, the tube is concealed and resembles teeth.

Archaludon's hands and feet are large and V-shaped, each of which are connected to cuboid forelimbs and have two rectangular digits. On these hands and feet, Archaludon has tall, retractable spires near the joints, with the spires on its feet usually retracted. These spires contain pointed, yellow terminals at their tips, which gather and store static electricity, as Archaludon is incapable of producing electricity on its own.<ref name=SVsite/> Similar terminal pairs are found on the spikes on Archaludon's head and tail.

When Archaludon faces danger, it will get down on all fours, straighten its body, retract its limbs, and fully extend the spires on its hands and feet, forming a shape that resembles a steel bridge. This position allows for less mobility but offers Archaludon a sturdier center of gravity. In this position, Archaludon is capable of using the static electricity stored in its terminals to fire a [[Electro Shot (move)|powerful beam of electric energy]].<ref name=SVsite/> When Archaludon charges up to fire this beam, electrical energy connects the terminals on its head, tail, and limbs, in a similar fashion to bridge suspension cables. During storms and other inclement weather, Archaludon's terminals can gather static electricity more easily, allowing it to fire off its beam much faster.<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/archaludon/ Archaludon — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet | Official Website]</ref>

==Trivia==
* Archaludon was revealed during the [[Pokémon Presents]] that aired on August 8th, 2023.<ref>"[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QiLe4pTHAE Pokémon Presents | 8.8.2023]" The Official Pokémon YouTube channel. ''YouTube''.</ref>

===Origin===
Archaludon appears to draw inspiration from {{wp|cable-stayed bridge}}s and {{wp|folding bridge}}s. Its legs resemble the {{wp|Guadiana International Bridge}}, while the X patterns might be a reference to the {{wp|25 de Abril Bridge}}. The bent body resembles a staple remover. Additionally, its ability to {{m|Electro Shot|charge and fire blasts of electricity}} may be inspired by {{wp|railguns}}. It may be a play on words of {{wp|Archosaur}} (a clade of animals that includes non-avian dinosaurs, pterosaurs, crocodilians and birds), taking the "arch" ({{wp|arch bridge|a type of bridge}}) in its name literally. It might also pull from the fact that Unova, where Blueberry Academy is located, stands out for its number of bridges.

====Name origin====
Archaludon may be a combination of ''arch'' (meaning principal or superlative, as well as referring to {{wp|arch bridge|a type of bridge}}), ''{{p|Duraludon}}'', and possibly ''{{wp|Archosaur}}''.

Briduras may be derived from ''bridge'', ジュラルドン ''Duraludon'', and ソーラス ''-saurus'' (Greek-derived suffix for dinosaur names).

'''Palafin''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''イルカマン''' ''Irukaman'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Finizen}} starting at [[level]] 38 when leveled up while connected with another player via the [[Union Circle]].

Palafin {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Palafin|transforms}} when it is [[Recall|switched out]] from battle.

==Biology==
In its Zero Form, Palafin is a light blue {{wp|cetacean}} Pokémon with the exact same physiology as its pre-evolution {{p|Finizen}}, except for a pink heart-shaped marking on its chest, surrounded by a larger white heart-shaped marking.

In its Hero Form, Palafin's physiology drastically changes, gaining considerable muscle mass and becoming able to stand on its tail fins. Its body is primarily dark blue with white colorations on its lower jaw, belly, sides, dorsal fin, and the bottom of its tail fins. The heart-shaped marking on its chest grows larger to resemble a shield. Parts of its body are covered with water, forming gloves, a cape or cowl, and three tail rings. Its eyes are also covered with water, evoking a mask.

Palafin is known as the "Pelagic Protector". When it hears its allies calling for help, Palafin will change its appearance from its Zero Form to its Hero Form, via its [[signature Ability]], {{a|Zero to Hero}}. This transformation awakens its ancient genes, and is done in secret. Hero Form Palafin is strong enough to lift a cruise ship with just one fin, and is capable of swimming at speeds of 50 knots. It is known to save drowning people and Pokémon.

Palafin is the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Jet Punch}}.

==Trivia==
* Zero Form Palafin is the [[List of Pokémon with unique base stat totals|only Pokémon]] with a base stat total of 457.
* Hero Form Palafin:
**is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 650.
**has the highest base {{stat|Attack}} stat of all {{type|Water}} Pokémon.
* Palafin has different [[cry|cries]] depending on its form. In particular, Zero Form Palafin and its pre-evolution, Finizen, have identical cries.

===Origin===
Palafin seems to be based on a {{wp|dolphin}} and a {{wp|superhero|comic book superhero}}. Its Zero Form's relative lack of visual changes from its pre-evolution seems to be inspired by the trope of superheroes assuming civilian identities to keep their true identity a secret, while its Hero Form seems to represent the hero suiting up whilst unseen and emerging as a superhero. The names of its forms and Ability reference the term "[[wiktionary:go from zero to hero|going from zero to hero]]". The connection between dolphins and superheroes may be inspired by numerous real-life accounts of wild dolphins saving people in open seas.

Additionally, Palafin may be based on the {{wp|Boto}}, a mythical South American creature that takes the form of an ordinary pink river dolphin, but can occasionally take a human form, and will join in human festivities. Eventually, the Boto must return to the water, and shapeshift back into an ordinary pink dolphin. Hero Form Palafin's {{Shiny}} coloration is reminiscent of the {{wp|orca}}, a type of dolphin.

Palafin evolving from Finizen at level 38 may be a reference to 1938, the year {{wp|Superman}} debuted.

====Name origin====
Palafin may be a combination of ''{{wp|paladin}}'' or ''pal'' (since another player is needed to evolve it) and ''fin'' or ''delfín'' (spanish for ''dolphin'').

Irukaman may be a combination of 海豚 ''iruka'' (dolphin) and ''man'', which is often used as a suffix for superhero codenames.

'''Okidogi''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''イイネイヌ''' ''Īneinu'') is a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

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

==Biology==
Okidogi together with {{p|Munkidori}} and {{p|Fezandipiti}}, known as The Heroes of Kitakami, are beloved by the people of the village as heroes that protected the land of [[Kitakami]] in the past, and stone statues were made in their likeness to express the people’s gratitude toward these three Pokémon.<ref>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/news/new_pokemon/ Pokémon Scarlet and Violet official site]</ref>


==Trivia==

===Origin===
Okidogi seems to be based on a {{wp|dog}}, more specifically on the {{wp|Shiba Inu}} or the {{wp|Akita (dog)|Japanese Akita}}, sharing with the latest a more bulky appearance.

Okidogi, together with {{p|Ogerpon}}, {{p|Munkidori}}, and {{p|Fezandipiti}}, may reference the Japanese folktale of ''{{wp|Momotarō}}''. The tale relates the titular Momotarō, a boy born from inside a peach, who traveled alongside a talking dog, monkey, and pheasant to fight a band of ''{{wp|ōni}}'' (a Japanese folkloric creature commonly equated to ogres in translations).

====Name origin====
Okidogi may be derived from ''okie-dokie'' and ''dog''.

Īneinu may be derived from いいね ''ii ne'' (interjection to express approval) and 犬 ''inu'' (dog).

'''Armarouge''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''グレンアルマ''' ''Gurenarma'') is a dual-type {{2t|Fire|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Charcadet}} when exposed to [[Auspicious Armor]]. It is one of Charcadet's final forms, the other being {{p|Ceruledge}}.

==Biology==
Armarouge is a bipedal, humanoid Pokémon. Its body is primarily black, with red colorations on its cylindrical legs and hands, the latter resembling oven mitts. Its head is also red, with yellow sharp "ears" protruding from either side. The top of its head is yellow and has a fire burning on top, resembling the plume on a knight's helmet. Its face is covered with a black mask with three holes at the center, and its eyes have red irises and wisps emanating from its yellow pupils. Armarouge's torso and shoulders are covered in a yellow suit of armor and levitating large yellow {{wp|pauldron}}s, respectively. The suit of armor has red accents on it.

Armarouge's armor is said to have belonged to a distinguished warrior, and is the source of its psychic power. The armor allows Armarouge to control its inner fire energy and use attacks. Armarouge is loyal and believes in fighting fair, willing to fight head-on no matter how strong the foe is. It first focuses on using its sturdy armor for defense before using high firepower in order to take down opponents. When attacking, Armarouge moves its pauldrons to its hands and puts them together to form a cannon, which it uses to shoot projectiles.<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/armarouge/ Armarouge — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet Official Website]</ref>

Armarouge is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Armor Cannon}}. In [[Generation IX]], {{m|Expanding Force}} is also one of its signature moves.

==Trivia==
* Armarouge's name was misspelled as "Arm'''o'''rouge" on the official Pokémon Scarlet and Violet website; specifically, in the section describing the move {{m|Armor Cannon}}.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/0/https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/armarouge/ Earliest archive of Armarouge — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet Official Website] (September 7, 2022).</ref> This error has been corrected as of September 13, 2022.<ref name=SVsite/>
* Armarouge has the same base stat values as its counterpart Ceruledge, just assigned to different stats.

===Origin===
Armarouge may be based on a possessed suit armor. Its whole idea and design suggest it could also be based as well on all the medieval heroic tales of European knights, but more specifically on the legend of the Spanish knight {{wp|Wilfred the Hairy}}, of French direct ancestry, which would explain the use of French vocabulary on its name, known for his golden armor and shield, on which was said the emperor {{wp|Charles the Bald}} painted with his fingers four red lines using the blood of the former, in honor of his bravery, as the ones Armarouge presents on its armor and extremities. It could also take inspiration from the use of long-range artillery weapons such as cannons, as well as the idea of {{wp|chivalry}}. Its ability to put its pauldrons together on its arms to form a cannon may take from depictions of arm cannons in fictional media. It may also take some inspiration from {{wp|jinn}}, humanoid fire spirits of Arabic mythology sometimes depicted in popular media launching fireballs at other beings.

====Name origin====
Armarouge may be a combination of ''arma'' (Spanish and Portuguese for weapon), ''armadura'' (Spanish and Portuguese for armor), and ''rouge'' (French for red).

Gurenarma may be a combination of 紅蓮 ''guren'' (crimson) and ''arma'' or ''armadura''.

'''Ceruledge''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ソウブレイズ''' ''Soublades'') is a dual-type {{2t|Fire|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Charcadet}} when exposed to [[Malicious Armor]]. It is one of Charcadet's final forms, the other being {{p|Armarouge}}.

==Biology==
Ceruledge is a bipedal, humanoid Pokémon. Its body is primarily black, with blue colorations on its head, arms and legs. Its head has sharp pale blue "ears" protruding from either side, and has a fire burning above it that resembles the plume on a knight's helmet. Its eyes have pink irises and wisps emanating from its white pupils. Almost all of Ceruledge's body is covered in an old dark purplish blue suit of armor, filled with grudges.<ref name=SVsite /> A plate with three pink indentations on its center covers Ceruledge's face. Instead of hands, Ceruledge wields purple-cyan blades created from both fire and ghost energy — specifically, the lingering regrets of the deceased. These blades can grow into great swords in battle, increasing Ceruledge's power in the process.<ref name=SVsite />

Ceruledge is merciless and will do anything to win a battle. It prefers to do close-quarters combat, with a mix of sneak and surprise attacks. By using its quick speed to locate a foe's blind spots, it will then move closer before slashing them with its large swords. Any cuts from Ceruledge's swords will cause wounds that leak life energy, which the swords then absorb.<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/ceruledge/ Ceruledge — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet Official Website]</ref>

Ceruledge is the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move {{m|Bitter Blade}}.

==Trivia==
* Ceruledge has the same base stat values as its counterpart Armarouge, just assigned to different stats.

===Origin===
Ceruledge may be based on a possessed suit armor. Its whole idea and design suggest it could also be based as well on all the medieval heroic tales of European {{wp|knight|knights}}, with both wearing similar armors, but more specifically on the {{wp|Cantar de mio Cid|El Cantar de mio Cid}} poem, which relates the legend of the Spanish knight {{wp|El Cid}}, known for wielding two famous swords, {{wp|Tizona}} and {{wp|Colada}}, and for winning his most important battle after death, which would explain Ceruledge's Ghost typing. It could also be potentially based on an ''{{wp|Akuma (folklore)|akuma}}'', a Japanese fire spirit often depicted carrying a sword. It may also take some inspiration from {{wp|jinn}}, humanoid fire spirits of Arabic mythology.

====Name origin====
Ceruledge may be a combination of ''{{wp|cerulean}}'' (a shade of dark blue) and ''edge''.

Soublades may be a combination of 蒼 ''sō'' (azure) or ''soul'' and ''blades''. It may also involve ''blaze'' or レイス ''reisu'' (wraith).

'''Armarouge''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''グレンアルマ''' ''Gurenarma'') is a dual-type {{2t|Fire|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Charcadet}} when exposed to [[Auspicious Armor]]. It is one of Charcadet's final forms, the other being {{p|Ceruledge}}.

==Biology==
Armarouge is a bipedal, humanoid Pokémon. Its body is primarily black, with red colorations on its cylindrical legs and hands, the latter resembling oven mitts. Its head is also red, with yellow sharp "ears" protruding from either side. The top of its head is yellow and has a fire burning on top, resembling the plume on a knight's helmet. Its face is covered with a black mask with three holes at the center, and its eyes have red irises and wisps emanating from its yellow pupils. Armarouge's torso and shoulders are covered in a yellow suit of armor and levitating large yellow {{wp|pauldron}}s, respectively. The suit of armor has red accents on it.

Armarouge's armor is said to have belonged to a distinguished warrior, and is the source of its psychic power. The armor allows Armarouge to control its inner fire energy and use attacks. Armarouge is loyal and believes in fighting fair, willing to fight head-on no matter how strong the foe is. It first focuses on using its sturdy armor for defense before using high firepower in order to take down opponents. When attacking, Armarouge moves its pauldrons to its hands and puts them together to form a cannon, which it uses to shoot projectiles.<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/armarouge/ Armarouge — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet Official Website]</ref>

Armarouge is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Armor Cannon}}. In [[Generation IX]], {{m|Expanding Force}} is also one of its signature moves.

==Trivia==
* Armarouge's name was misspelled as "Arm'''o'''rouge" on the official Pokémon Scarlet and Violet website; specifically, in the section describing the move {{m|Armor Cannon}}.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/0/https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/armarouge/ Earliest archive of Armarouge — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet Official Website] (September 7, 2022).</ref> This error has been corrected as of September 13, 2022.<ref name=SVsite/>
* Armarouge has the same base stat values as its counterpart Ceruledge, just assigned to different stats.

===Origin===
Armarouge may be based on a possessed suit armor. Its whole idea and design suggest it could also be based as well on all the medieval heroic tales of European knights, but more specifically on the legend of the Spanish knight {{wp|Wilfred the Hairy}}, of French direct ancestry, which would explain the use of French vocabulary on its name, he was known for his golden armor and shield, on which was said the emperor {{wp|Charles the Bald}} painted with his fingers four red lines using the blood of the former, in honor of his bravery, as the ones Armarouge presents on its armor and extremities. It could also take inspiration from the use of long-range artillery weapons such as cannons, as well as the idea of {{wp|chivalry}}. Its ability to put its pauldrons together on its arms to form a cannon may take from depictions of arm cannons in fictional media. It may also take some inspiration from {{wp|jinn}}, humanoid fire spirits of Arabic mythology sometimes depicted in popular media launching fireballs at other beings.

====Name origin====
Armarouge may be a combination of ''arma'' (Spanish and Portuguese for weapon), ''armadura'' (Spanish and Portuguese for armor), and ''rouge'' (French for red).

Gurenarma may be a combination of 紅蓮 ''guren'' (crimson) and ''arma'' or ''armadura''.

'''Armarouge''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''グレンアルマ''' ''Gurenarma'') is a dual-type {{2t|Fire|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Charcadet}} when exposed to [[Auspicious Armor]]. It is one of Charcadet's final forms, the other being {{p|Ceruledge}}.

==Biology==
Armarouge is a bipedal, humanoid Pokémon. Its body is primarily black, with red colorations on its cylindrical legs and hands, the latter resembling oven mitts. Its head is also red, with yellow sharp "ears" protruding from either side. The top of its head is yellow and has a fire burning on top, resembling the plume on a knight's helmet. Its face is covered with a black mask with three holes at the center, and its eyes have red irises and wisps emanating from its yellow pupils. Armarouge's torso and shoulders are covered in a yellow suit of armor and levitating large yellow {{wp|pauldron}}s, respectively. The suit of armor has red accents on it.

Armarouge's armor is said to have belonged to a distinguished warrior, and is the source of its psychic power. The armor allows Armarouge to control its inner fire energy and use attacks. Armarouge is loyal and believes in fighting fair, willing to fight head-on no matter how strong the foe is. It first focuses on using its sturdy armor for defense before using high firepower in order to take down opponents. When attacking, Armarouge moves its pauldrons to its hands and puts them together to form a cannon, which it uses to shoot projectiles.<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/armarouge/ Armarouge — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet Official Website]</ref>

Armarouge is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Armor Cannon}}. In [[Generation IX]], {{m|Expanding Force}} is also one of its signature moves.

==Trivia==
* Armarouge's name was misspelled as "Arm'''o'''rouge" on the official Pokémon Scarlet and Violet website; specifically, in the section describing the move {{m|Armor Cannon}}.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/0/https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/armarouge/ Earliest archive of Armarouge — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet Official Website] (September 7, 2022).</ref> This error has been corrected as of September 13, 2022.<ref name=SVsite/>
* Armarouge has the same base stat values as its counterpart Ceruledge, just assigned to different stats.

===Origin===
Armarouge may be based on a possessed suit armor. Its whole idea and design suggest it could also be based as well on all the medieval heroic tales of European knights, but more specifically on the legend of the Spanish knight {{wp|Wilfred the Hairy}}, of French direct ancestry, which would explain the use of French vocabulary on its name, he was known for his golden armor and shield, on which was said the emperor {{wp|Charles the Bald}} painted with his fingers four red lines using the blood of the former, in honor of his bravery. Armarouge could also take inspiration from the use of long-range artillery weapons such as cannons and {{wp|chivalry}}. Its ability to put its pauldrons together on its arms to form a cannon may take from depictions of arm cannons in fictional media. It may also take some inspiration from {{wp|jinn}}, humanoid fire spirits of Arabic mythology sometimes depicted in popular media launching fireballs at other beings.

====Name origin====
Armarouge may be a combination of ''arma'' (Spanish and Portuguese for weapon), ''armadura'' (Spanish and Portuguese for armor), and ''rouge'' (French for red).

Gurenarma may be a combination of 紅蓮 ''guren'' (crimson) and ''arma'' or ''armadura''.

Ceruledge (Pokémon)

2023-01-24T03:51:56Z

Toucannon733: /* Origin */Added El Cid as possible inspiration for the Pokémon, as it's important to highlight how both Ceruledge and Armarouge take inspiration from two Spanish knights.

'''Ceruledge''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ソウブレイズ''' ''Soublades'') is a dual-type {{2t|Fire|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Charcadet}} when exposed to [[Malicious Armor]]. It is one of Charcadet's final forms, the other being {{p|Armarouge}}.

==Biology==
Ceruledge is a bipedal, humanoid Pokémon. Its body is primarily black, with blue colorations on its head, arms and legs. Its head has sharp pale blue "ears" protruding from either side, and has a fire burning above it that resembles the plume on a knight's helmet. Its eyes have pink irises and wisps emanating from its white pupils. Almost all of Ceruledge's body is covered in an old dark purplish blue suit of armor, filled with grudges.<ref name=SVsite /> A plate with three pink indentations on its center covers Ceruledge's face. Instead of hands, Ceruledge wields purple-cyan blades created from both fire and ghost energy — specifically, the lingering regrets of the deceased. These blades can grow into great swords in battle, increasing Ceruledge's power in the process.<ref name=SVsite />

Ceruledge is merciless and will do anything to win a battle. It prefers to do close-quarters combat, with a mix of sneak and surprise attacks. By using its quick speed to locate a foe's blind spots, it will then move closer before slashing them with its large swords. Any cuts from Ceruledge's swords will cause wounds that leak life energy, which the swords then absorb.<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/ceruledge/ Ceruledge — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet Official Website]</ref>

Ceruledge is the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move {{m|Bitter Blade}}.

==Trivia==
* Ceruledge has the same base stat values as its counterpart Armarouge, just assigned to different stats.

===Origin===
Ceruledge may be based on a possessed suit armor. Its whole idea and design suggest it could also be based as well on all the medieval tales of European {{wp|knight|knights}}, with both wearing similar armors, but more specifically on the {{wp|Cantar de mio Cid|El Cantar de mio Cid}} poem, which relates the legend of the Spanish knight {{wp|El Cid}}, known for wielding two famous swords, {{wp|Tizona}} and {{wp|Colada}}, and for winning his most important battle after death, which would explain Ceruledge's Ghost typing. It could also be potentially based on an ''{{wp|Akuma (folklore)|akuma}}'', a Japanese fire spirit often depicted carrying a sword. It may also take some inspiration from {{wp|jinn}}, humanoid fire spirits of Arabic mythology.

====Name origin====
Ceruledge may be a combination of ''{{wp|cerulean}}'' (a shade of dark blue) and ''edge''.

Soublades may be a combination of 蒼 ''sō'' (azure) or ''soul'' and ''blades''. It may also involve ''blaze'' or レイス ''reisu'' (wraith).

Skeledirge (Pokémon)

2023-01-19T21:55:58Z

Toucannon733: /* Origin */Last thing I add to this trivia I promise. Also, I'd like to say I don't see the ressemble between Skeledirge's face and a modern concert stage as a stretch, it makes a lot of sense, more if you see how the bird moves all along the head.

'''Skeledirge''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ラウドボーン''' ''Loudbone'') is a dual-type {{2t|Fire|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IX]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Crocalor}} starting at [[level]] 36. It is the final form of {{p|Fuecoco}}.

==Biology==
Skeledirge is a large, red, crocodilian Pokémon covered in rectangular scales. Its belly is angular and has a white coloration flanked by black stripes on either side, resembling an open suit jacket and dress shirt. It also has various white-colored patterns on its head, lower jaw, neck, back, shoulders, arms, legs, and the cylindrical tip of its tail. The white coloration on the top of its head resembles a {{wp|lute}}. Skeledirge has three black claws on each foot, and although it usually walks on all fours, it is capable of standing on its hind legs.

Skeledirge's head is delineated with a black circular shape at the top. It has black eyes with yellow irises and red eyelids, serrated jaws with purple insides, and various square and triangular patterns that come in red, orange, yellow, and purple. A wreath of solid orange-and-yellow fire energy emerges from the back of Skeledirge's jaws, which circles around its head.

There is an orange fiery bird resting on top of Skeledirge's head, which is a separate, independent entity from the Pokémon.<ref name=SVsite/> This bird is spherical, with a yellow face, white eyes, a short crest and tail, and a singular tiny pointed "foot" it balances itself on. It is said that the bird was born when the egg-shaped fireball Skeledirge had as a {{p|Crocalor}} gained a soul; this also gave Skeledirge its {{t|Ghost}} typing.<ref name=SVsite/> The bird can sometimes be seen pecking at Skeledirge's jaws.

Skeledirge has a meddlesome but caring personality. Its singing is gentle, but powerful and full of vitality, capable of soothing the souls of all who hears it. Opponents hearing its singing will feel warm and fulfilled inside, losing their will to battle.<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/skeledirge/ Skeledirge — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet | Official Website]</ref>

Skeledirge burns its enemies by unleashing flames that exceed the temperature of 5,400 °F (3,000 °C). As seen during its [[signature move]] {{m|Torch Song}}, when Skeledirge sings, the fiery bird transforms into a microphone-like shape, with its "foot" growing much longer towards the ground. Then, the bird powers up with the singing, gains fiery wings, and flies towards its enemy. Skeledirge is the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Torch Song.

==Trivia==
* Skeledirge is the [[List of Pokémon by weight|heaviest]] fully evolved [[starter Pokémon]], weighing 719.8 lbs (326.5 kg).

===Origin===
Skeledirge and the fiery bird on its head may be based on a {{wp|Nile crocodile}} and its supposed cleaning symbiosis with the {{wp|Egyptian plover}}. The location of the bird might also be inspired by the bulbous protuberance at the tip of male {{wp|gharial}}s' snouts, which enables them to produce certain sounds.

Skeledirge's "suited" appearance and general behavior resemble a singer, such as those in {{wp|rock music}}, {{wp|mariachi}}, or {{wp|opera}}. It being a Ghost type crocodile could be a reference to all the crocodile-related ghost stories present in {{wp|Folklore of Spain|Spanish folklore}}, such as the catalonian {{wp|Cocollona}}, the Lizard of Magdalena from {{wp|Province of Jaén (Spain)|Jaén}}, or the ''Drac de Na Coca'', whose body can be found on display in {{wp|Palma de Mallorca}}, from which the skeletal appearance of Skeledirge may take inspiration, due to the similar exposed skull in both. Its Fire typing may be inspired by the fact that crocodiles release excess heat through their mouths.

Its overall design may also be inspired by the {{wp|Día de Muertos}} holiday, with its face resembling a {{wp|Calavera}}, and the fire energy around its neck resembling {{wp|Tagetes erecta|Mexican marigolds}} put on display to honor the dead. Its colorful look may be based on {{wp|alebrije}}, a form of Mexican sculpture art depicting fantastical creatures in brightly colored patterns; or the {{wp|trencadís}} works of art by {{wp|Antoni Gaudí}} such as the salamander statue dubbed "El Drac" (lit. "The Dragon"), located in {{wp|Park Güell}}, {{wp|Barcelona}}, as well as his architecture as a whole, which is usually very related to bones, being the {{wp|Casa Batlló}} and the back of the {{wp|Sagrada Família}} the most recognizable cases. It may also be based on the bogeyman-esque monster {{wp|Coco (folklore)|Cuca}}, which is typically depicted in Brazilian culture as an alligator hag with long messy hair.

====Name origin====
Skeledirge may be a combination of ''skeleton'' and ''{{wp|dirge}}'' (a type of song or hymn performed in mourning, such as during funerals).

Loudbone may be a combination of ''loud'' or ''{{wp|laúd}}'' (Spanish lute, a musical instrument) and ''bone''.
