{{Search|title screen menu|the overworld menu|Menu}}
The '''main menu''' (Japanese: '''{{j|タイトルメニュー}}''' ''title menu'') is the menu that appears right after the title screen in the [[core series]] [[Pokémon games]].

In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s|Pokémon FireRed, LeafGreen}}, {{5v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, the main menu is hidden when there is no [[save]]; the player must first create a save file in order to access the main menu.

'''Jellicent''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ブルンゲル''' ''Burungel'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Frillish}} starting at [[level]] 40.

==Biology==
Jellicent is a large jellyfish-like Pokémon whose appearance varies based on gender. Both genders have five tentacles, two of which are long with petal-shaped ends. The remaining three are short and tapered. A male is blue with a short, white crown, and a white, moustache-like collar. Its eyes are red with blue sclera, and there is one eyelash over each eye. Its long tentacles have white edges, while its short tentacles have white spots. A female is pink with a tall, white crown and a puffy, white collar. Its eyes are blue with red sclera and surrounded by two eyelashes. Its mouth is red and heart-shaped. The long tentacles have white edges like the male, but the short ones have white frills.

Jellicent can absorb seawater and project it from its head, which lets it move forward in the sea. Any ship or crew that wanders into the oceans where it dwells is never found again, and it is known to feed on life energy. It is rumored that it drags these ships into the sea and preys on its passengers.

==In the anime==

===Major appearances===
Jellicent of both genders appeared in ''[[BW078|Guarding the Guardian of the Mountain!]]'', under the ownership of [[Rizzo]]. They were used to fight a wild {{p|Volcarona}} and [[Ash's Krokorok]], but were soon defeated by [[Brycen]]'s {{p|Beartic}}.

A male Jellicent appeared in ''[[BW094|The Road to Humilau!]]'', under the ownership of [[Marlon]]. It battled against {{un|Cameron}}'s {{p|Ferrothorn}} in a Gym battle, but was defeated by {{m|Thunderbolt}}.

===Minor appearances===
Both male and female Jellicent debuted in the opening sequences of ''[[M14|White—Victini and Zekrom and Black—Victini and Reshiram]]''; the female Jellicent was exclusive to the former movie and the male Jellicent was exclusive to the latter.

A female Jellicent appeared in ''[[BW106|Strong Strategy Steals the Show!]]'', under the ownership of [[Manning]]. It briefly battled against [[Russet]]'s {{p|Eelektross}} and was defeated.

==Trivia==
[[File:593Jellicent Female Dream.png|thumb|150px|{{pkmn|Dream World}} artwork of female Jellicent]]
* Although female {{pkmn|Dream World}} artwork exists, any Frillish or Jellicent uploaded to the {{pkmn|Global Link}} will use the male artwork, regardless of their gender.
* No Pokémon have the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Jellicent and its pre-evolution.

===Origin===
Jellicent and its pre-evolution were most likely inspired by the {{wp|Nurarihyon}}, a {{wp|jellyfish}} {{wp|yōkai}} that is either shown as a demonized jellyfish or as a jellyfish-like man who wears refined, sometimes regal, clothing. It is also possible that they were inspired by the Kurage no Hinotama, a sort of jellyfish-like {{wp|will-o'-the-wisp}}. Its design is inspired by the jellyfish (in particular the {{wp|crown jellyfish}} and {{wp|jelly blubber}}) and monarch attire; the male's appearance is based on a king's while the female's is based on a queen's. The {{wp|Aurelia aurita|moon jellyfish}} may have influenced Jellicent being a ghost type. Its dangerous ability to prey on humans, in self-defense of its habitat, is possibly based on the {{wp|box jellyfish}} and other highly venomous species of jellyfish that can kill humans. The two larger tentacles Jellicent possesses are more similar to those of {{wp|squids}} than the tentacles of real jellyfish. Jellicent also has traits in common with {{wp|sea monsters}} like the {{wp|Kraken}}, most notably its rumored penchant for destroying ships and feeding on the crew.

====Name origin====
Jellicent is a combination of ''jellyfish'' and ''magnificent'' or ''translucent''.

Burungel is a combination of ''blue'' and ''angel'' (reference to {{wp|sea angel}}s).

'''Frillish''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''プルリル''' ''Pururill'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Jellicent}} starting at [[level]] 40.

==Biology==
Frillish is a jellyfish-like Pokémon resembling young royalty. Regardless of gender, it has a round head with a crown-like tuft, and five tentacle-like appendages. It has oval eyes with white pupils, and a collar around its neck. It has invisible poison spikes on its appendages. As a male Frillish, it is blue, with smooth appendages and a triangular crown. It has red eyes with blue sclera and a straight eyelash on each eye, its collar is wavy, and it appears to be frowning. As a female Frillish, it is pink, with wavy appendages and a round crown. It has blue eyes with red sclera and a curled eyelash on each eye, its collar is frilled, and it appears to be smiling.

Frillish is a {{wp|Hadal zone|hadopelagic}} Pokémon which lives in dens about 5 miles (8 kilometers) under the sea surface. Because of this, it can cope with extremely dark and highly pressurized sea conditions. It is carnivorous; it gently floats around in waves until it can strike its prey. It makes its victim numb with the use of its poison spikes and takes it to its deep den.

==In the anime==

[[File:Frillish female anime.png|250px|thumb|left|A female Frillish in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Jessie's Frillish]]====
[[Jessie]] owns a female Frillish, which debuted in ''[[BW109|New Places... Familiar Faces!]]''. Jessie eventually had to give Frillish to {{an|Giovanni}} as a sign that they accomplished something in Unova.

====Other====
A male Frillish appeared in ''[[BW010|A Rival Battle for Club Champ!]]'', under [[Trip]]'s ownership. He used Frillish in his match against {{Ash}}, and it was able to defeat both {{AP|Pidove}} and {{AP|Snivy}}, despite having a disadvantage against the latter in both type and gender.

A female Frillish appeared in ''[[BW037|A Fishing Connoisseur in a Fishy Competition!]]''. She took a liking to {{Ash}} after he fell into the canal. She was later hooked by {{an|Bianca}} during the fishing competition, and when she saw {{an|Team Rocket}} attempting to kidnap the prize Pokémon, she released them all back into the wild.

Both male and female Frillish appeared in ''[[BW115|The Pokémon Harbor Patrol!]]'', under the ownership of [[Halsey]]. They were used to help rescue people from fires, and then to help put out the fires alongside {{p|Dewott}}.

===Minor appearances===
Both male and female Frillish appeared in the opening sequences of ''[[M14|White—Victini and Zekrom and Black—Victini and Reshiram]]''; the female Frillish was exclusive to the former movie and the male Frillish was exclusive to the latter.

Both male and female Frillish made a cameo appearance in ''[[BW069|Climbing the Tower of Success!]]''.

Both male and female Frillish made a cameo appearance in ''[[BW099|A Surface to Air Tag Battle Team!]].''

A female Frillish appeared in ''[[BW080|Clash of the Connoisseurs!]]''.

A male Frillish appeared in ''[[BW086|Piplup, Pansage, and a Meeting of the Times!]]''.

A female Frillish appeared in [[SM058]]. [[James]] attempted to catch one, but failed when {{TP|James|Mareanie}}, seeing it as a rival for James' affections, scared it off with {{m|Spike Cannon}}.

==Trivia==
* The Japanese [[Pokémon Black and White beta|prototype name]] for Frillish was プルンス ''Purunsu''.<ref>http://imgur.com/lCiPM87</ref>
[[File:592Frillish Female Dream.png|thumb|right|150px|{{pkmn|Dream World}} artwork of female Frillish]]
* Although female {{pkmn|Dream World}} artwork exists, any Frillish or Jellicent uploaded to the {{pkmn|Global Link}} will use the male artwork, regardless of their gender.
* No other Pokémon have the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Frillish and its evolution.

===Origin===
Frillish and its evolution were most likely inspired by the {{wp|Nurarihyon}}, a {{wp|jellyfish}} {{wp|yōkai}} that is either shown as a demonized jellyfish or as a jellyfish-like man who wears refined, sometimes regal, clothing. It is also possible that they was inspired by the Kurage no Hinotama, a type of jellyfish-like {{wp|will-o'-the-wisp}}. Its design is inspired by the jellyfish and {{wp|Victorian fashion|Victorian-style}} monarch attire: the male form's appearance based on a prince's while the female's is based on a princess'. The {{wp|Aurelia aurita|moon jellyfish}} has inspired Frillish in being a ghost type. The two larger arms Frillish possesses are more similar to those of {{wp|squids}} than the tentacles of real jellyfish. Frillish and its evolution also have traits in common with {{wp|sea monsters}} like the {{wp|Kraken}}, most notably their rumored penchant for destroying ships and feeding on the crew.

====Name origin====
Frillish may be a combination of {{wp|Frill (fashion)|''frill''}} and ''jellyfish''.

Pururill may be a combination of プルプル ''purupuru'' (soft) and ''{{wp|rill}}'' or ''{{wp|ruffle|frill}}''.

'''Banette''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ジュペッタ''' ''Juppeta'') is a {{type|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Shuppet}} starting at [[level]] 37. It can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Banette''' using the [[Banettite]].

==Biology==
Banette is a dark gray, doll-like Pokémon that is possessed by pure hatred. It has three short spikes on its head and a long zigzagging ribbon trailing off the back of its head. A zipper acts as its mouth, and it has purplish-pink eyes with slit pupils. Its long, flat arms have three-fingered hands, while its legs are short and stubby. It has a yellow, brush-like tail.

As Mega Banette, this Pokémon gains several additional zippers: one running diagonally across its face, one on each hand and another on its body. The first zipper runs from its left eye to the tip of its central spike. The other three are all unzipped, revealing parts of Mega Banette's cursed purple body. Its three long purple fingers and body revealing two pointed, purple legs are visible. Its zigzagging ribbon becomes somewhat erect, and now has two zipper rings around it and a short zipper on the tip. It gains four further spikes: one on the top and bottom of each hand and one on each hip. However, it loses its brush-like tail.

Being driven to life by a powerful grudge, it keeps its life force safely in its body by the means of its zipped up mouth. If unzipped, it would lose its energy. It lays curses on others by using its body as a voodoo doll and sticking pins into itself. It lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|garbage dumps and dark alleys,}} where it searches for the person that threw it away before it became a Pokémon. It is said that treating it with enough care will satisfy its grudge and will turn it back into a stuffed toy. When it [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolves]], it is filled with so much power and vindictiveness it cannot help cursing its Trainer.

==Trivia==
* Mega Banette has the highest base {{stat|Attack}} stat of all {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon.
* Mega Banette is the lightest [[Mega Evolution]] at 13.0 kg (28.7 lbs.)
* Banette can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Dusclops}}. Both are [[Generation III]] Ghost-type Pokémon that evolve from their pre-evolutions at level 37. Both have the same base stat total. Wild Banette are exclusive to Sapphire, while wild Dusclops are exclusive to Ruby.
** However, with the introduction of {{p|Dusknoir}} in [[Generation IV]] and Mega Banette in [[Generation VI]], the similarities between the two evolutionary lines have become less notable, as Dusknoir has yet to receive a Mega Evolution and Banette cannot evolve.
* Despite Banette's zipper needing to stay closed in order to conserve energy, Banette's [[Pokémon-Amie]] animation shows it unzipping and opening its mouth in order to smile or eat.

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Shuppet and Banette}}
Its appearance and habit of sticking itself with pins is akin to the popular conception of {{wp|Haitian Vodou#Myths and misconceptions|voodoo dolls}}. Its [[Pokédex]] backstory of an ordinary doll coming to life is similar to the {{wp|Tsukumogami}}, while the grudge it holds against its disowner is related to the idea of {{wp|mottainai}}.

====Name origin====
Banette is a combination of ''bane'' and ''{{wp|marionette}}''.

Juppeta may be a combination of 呪縛 ''jubaku'' (curse or spell) and ''puppet''. It may also refer to ''{{wp|Mister Geppetto|Geppetto}}'', a woodcarver who built a puppet that came to life in {{wp|The Adventures of Pinocchio|the story}} of {{wp|Pinocchio}}.

'''Shuppet''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カゲボウズ''' ''Kagebouzu'') is a {{type|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Banette}} starting at [[level]] 37.

==Biology==
Shuppet is a spherical Pokémon that appears to be covered by a gray cloth. Black rings surround its multicolored eyes, which have light blue sclera, dark blue irises, and yellow pupils. Extending from the top of its head is a long, pointed horn. The horn collects the negative emotions of people, on which this Pokémon feeds. The emotions it feeds on include anger, jealousy, and envy, so some people are grateful for its presence. A nocturnal Pokémon, it will appear in swarms beneath the eaves of houses with negative people. It is most commonly found {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|in cities and other urban settings.}}

==Trivia==
* Shuppet can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Duskull}}. Both are [[Generation III]] Ghost-type Pokémon. Both evolve into their evolved forms starting at level 37. Both also have the same base stat total.

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Shuppet and Banette}}
It appears to be a てるてる坊主 ''{{wp|Teru teru bozu|teru teru bōzu}}'', a Japanese paper doll resembling a ghost. It also resembles a {{wp|hand puppet}}. It also appears similar to common depictions of ghosts, specifically those that resemble floating cloths with faces.

====Name origin====
Shuppet may be a combination of ''shadow'' and ''{{wp|puppet}}'', or a contraction of ''{{wp|Shadow play|shadow puppet}}''.

Kagebouzu is a combination of 影 ''kage'' (shadow) and てるてる坊主 ''{{wp|Teru teru bozu|teru teru bōzu}}'' (paper dolls with a shape similar to Shuppet).

'''Mimikyu''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミミッキュ''' ''Mimikkyu'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ghost|Fairy}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VII]].

While it is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, it {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Mimikyu|changes appearance}} when hit by an attack.

==Biology==
Mimikyu is a small Pokémon whose body is almost entirely hidden under a rag. Its beady black eyes are visible through holes in the body of its disguise, and the fringe of an amorphous foot or lower body appears to be visible under the hem of its rag. Occasionally, it will also extend a black appendage from under its rag. The veil itself resembles a {{p|Pikachu}}. The cloth is yellow with black tipped ears. The Pikachu face appears to be drawn with crayons, consisting of black eyes, red cheeks, and a squiggly black mouth. Mimikyu also carries a small stick resembling a lightning bolt to create a tail for its costume. When its disguise is damaged, the costume's head droops limply backwards, revealing Mimikyu's ruse. Larger rips in the costume are accompanied by shadowy vapors pouring out from whatever is hidden within.

A lonely Pokémon, Mimikyu is always covered by its disguise. Since this Pokémon is weakened by sunlight, it is rumored that the veil is used for protection. It is believed that seeing its true form will cause a mysterious illness or even a painful death. Mimikyu's disguise is modeled after Pikachu because of the popularity of Pikachu-styled merchandise, thinking that its disguise would allow it to make friends with people.<ref>http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/mimikyu/</ref> If its rag is damaged or its neck is broken, it spends all night patching it, and seeks revenge on the one that damaged it, fearing that its true identity could have been exposed. Mimikyu finds repairing its neck difficult, often causing it to cry inside. Mimikyu is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the [[Z-Move]] {{m|Let's Snuggle Forever}}.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Mimikyu.
* On October 20, 2016, [[The Pokémon Company]] posted a Mimikyu-themed music video onto their YouTube channel titled [[Mimikyu's Song]].
* According to an official piece of merchandise, Mimikyu's height does not count the head of the disguise, only the body.<ref>[https://twitter.com/PokeshopperVGC/status/956854089907924993 @PokeshopperVGC on Twitter]</ref>

===Origin===
Mimikyu's disguise is based on {{p|Pikachu}}. The execution of the disguise is similar to ghost costumes made from bedsheets. Mimikyu also shares similarities with the {{wp|Bugul Noz}}, a {{wp|Breton mythology|Breton myth}} about a kind and gentle fairy spirit whose horrifying ugliness causes it to be perpetually alone.

====Name origin====
Mimikyu and Mimikkyu may be derived from ''mimic'' and ''Q'', ''you'', or きゅうきゅう ''kyūkyū'' (onomatopoeia for squeaking, similar to {{p|Pikachu}}).

'''Klefki''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''クレッフィ''' ''Cleffy'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Fairy}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VI]].

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

==Biology==
Klefki is a small, grayish-white Pokémon resembling a key ring with four keys on it. It has a spherical head with a white face and a small, pink oval on its forehead. Two black circles and a keyhole form its eyes and mouth. Below its head is its pink, teardrop-shaped body with a white marking in the middle. Extending from the top of its head is an appendage, which resembles an old-fashioned key with two wide, blunt teeth. A thin loop surrounds Klefki, and connects at either side of the "key". Hanging from the loop are various keys that this Pokémon has collected.

It sneaks into homes and steals keys, taking a liking to master keys. If Klefki finds a key it likes, it will never release it. To threaten attackers, this Pokémon jingles its key collection. It inserts its key-shaped horn into chinks in metal, absorbing metal ions. It used to live in mines, but has begun to move into human settlements ever since the minerals that make up its diet became scarce. Klefki is the [[Signature move|only Pokémon]] capable of learning {{m|Fairy Lock}}.

==In the anime==

Klefki made its main series debut in ''[[XY047|Dreaming a Performer's Dream!]]'', under the ownership of [[Monsieur Pierre]]. It usually holds onto {{DL|Pokémon Showcase|Princess Key}}s for Monsieur Pierre before they are awarded to [[Pokémon Performer]]s.

This Klefki later acquainted itself with {{adv|X}} and his friends, giving X [[Clemont]]'s glasses and allowing him to deduce the location of Team Flare's base. He eventually set off without informing the others.

Another wild Klefki appeared on {{rt|15|Kalos}} in ''[[PAXY28|Scizor Defends]]''.

==Trivia==
* Klefki is tied with {{alo|Diglett}} as the [[List of Pokémon by height|shortest]] {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Klefki is based on a keychain, and possibly also the pagan tradition of blaming fairies for the loss of small objects such as shoes and keys. It may also be based on the superstition of carrying an iron charm to ward off fae mischief.

====Name origin====
Klefki is a combination of ''clef'' (French for key) or a corruption of ''kleptomaniac'' (in reference to its habit of collecting keys) and ''key''.

Cleffy is derived from ''clef'' (French for key).

'''Golurk''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ゴルーグ''' ''Goloog'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ground|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Golett}} starting at [[level]] 43.

==Biology==
[[File:Juanita Golurk {{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: H}} mod 2}}|0=Black|1=White}} Fly.png|thumb|left|250px|{{#switch: {{#expr: {{#time: H}} mod 2}}|0=Golurk|1={{Shiny}} Golurk}} flying]]
Golurk is a bipedal automaton Pokémon resembling a suit of armor. It said to have been invented by ancient people to serve as a laborer. It is mainly teal in color with yellow swirls on its shoulders and hands. It has a small head compared to its body, and pale yellow eyes, one of which turns to its left at the bottom, unlike {{p|Golett}}'s eye, which turns right. There is a crack across the chest of the armor, which is patched diagonally with a brown seal resembling a belt. It has a crystal-like formation on each shoulder, and there are large bangles on its wrists and ankles. It has a Roman armor-like "skirt" and flat feet beneath.

Despite its large size, Golurk is capable of flying by inserting its hands in its arms and its legs and feet in its body, then taking off like a rocket. If the seal on its chest is removed, its energy runs wild. This causes it to rage and fly around uncontrollably without being able to land itself. It is also capable of forming a cannon by pulling its legs into its body and standing on its hands, as seen in [[PokéPark 2: Wonders Beyond]]. Golurk was created by an ancient civilization to protect people and Pokémon.

==Trivia==
* According to Game Freak, Golurk and its {{p|Golett|pre-evolution}} were created by [[James Turner]].<ref>http://web.archive.org/web/20130115083652/http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/staff/?p=204</ref>

===Origin===
Golurk and its pre-evolution appear to be based on {{wp|golem}}s and, considering its body structure and ability to learn {{m|Fly}}, {{wp|Super Robot|giant robots}}. The crack and strap on its chest may be a reference to the golem in the Hebrew story ''{{wp|The Golem of Prague}}''.

====Name origin====
Golurk is a combination of ''golem'' and ''lurk'' (referring to its {{t|Ghost}} type).

Goloog is a combination of ''golem'' and サイボーグ ''saibōgu'' (cyborg).

'''Golett''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ゴビット''' ''Gobit'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ground|Ghost}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Golurk}} starting at [[level]] 43.

==Biology==
Golett is a bipedal, clay Pokémon constructed in the ancient past to protect a civilization of people and Pokémon. There are two different shades of blue throughout its appearance. It has a head with a cyan-colored "fin" on top of its head, and two bewitching, yellow eyes. Around its spherical body are brown straps, which meet at a blue square with a yellow swirl in the center. It has four large stones, two on its arms and two acting as its feet. Golett burns energy inside itself in order to move. This energy causes Golett to release light through the holes near its arms and legs. However, no one has identified this energy, and is speculated to soon run out.

==In the anime==
[[File:Luke Golett.png|left|thumb|250px|Golett in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
Golett debuted in ''[[BW038|Movie Time! Zorua in "The Legend of the Pokémon Knight"!]]'', under the ownership of [[Luke]]. It helped its Trainer film his movies by building props, as well as being a stagehand and carrying equipment. Luke used his Golett against {{an|Iris}} in the semifinals of the Battle Club Tournament against {{TP|Iris|Axew}}. Golett reappeared in ''[[BW082|An Epic Defense Force!]]'', where it once again helped with Luke's movie, though it now starred in the movie instead of helping with carrying equipment. It was often seen [[Walking Pokémon|outside of its Poké Ball]].

===Minor appearances===
A Golett appeared in ''[[BW090|Jostling for the Junior Cup!]]'', under the ownership of [[Kenton]]. It was used in the first round of the [[Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup]], where it lost to [[Manning]]'s {{p|Heatmor}}.

'''Claydol''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ネンドール''' ''Nendoll'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ground|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Baltoy}} starting at [[level]] 36.

==Biology==
Claydol is a large, black Pokémon that resembles a mud statue with two stubby legs. It has a wide, spherical head with a rounded protrusion on top. Around its head are many large, pink eyes with yellow, beak-like protrusions between each. A wavy, white rim runs along the upper edges of the eyes. Its torso has white ring markings, each with a downward extension and yellow dot in the middle. It has spherical arms with a rounded protrusion that are capable of firing beams. These arms are not attached to its body, but are usually kept floating close by Claydol's psychic powers. Claydol uses the same telekinetic abilities to move and float through the air. It lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|rough terrains}}.

It has a body that is prone to melting when wet, and uses its psychic powers to protect itself from rain. Ancient people modeled Claydol after something that descended from the sky.

==In the anime==
[[File:Buck Claydol.png|thumb|left|250px|Claydol in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===In the main series===
====Major appearances====
Claydol debuted in ''[[AG104|Claydol Big and Tall]]''. A giant one was released from a giant stone [[Poké Ball]] and had to be stopped from getting to a village.

{{ho|Robert}} used a Claydol along with {{p|Milotic}} in a [[Double Battle|two-on-two]] [[Contest Battle]] against [[Drew]]'s {{DL|Drew|Flygon}} and {{DL|Drew|Masquerain}} in the finals of the [[Hoenn Grand Festival]] in ''[[AG123|Rhapsody in Drew]]''.

In ''[[AG164|Ka Boom with a View!]]'', {{FB|Palace Maven|Spenser}} used a Claydol against {{Ash}} as his final Pokémon. With its {{m|Hyper Beam}}, {{m|Psybeam}}, {{m|Rapid Spin}}, and {{m|Teleport}}, it quickly defeated {{AP|Swellow}}, and it proved to be a challenge for {{AP|Sceptile}}. It was later defeated by Sceptile's newly learned {{m|Solar Beam}}.

Three Claydol appeared in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', under the ownership of [[Damos]]. In the original timeline set up by the movie, they were used by Damos, who was under {{m|Hypnosis}}, to attack {{OBP|Arceus|M12}} with {{m|Shock Wave}}. When Ash and {{ashfr}} traveled to the past to prevent this, [[Marcus]], the one responsible for hypnotizing Damos, managed to use the Claydol again to attack Arceus.

A {{pkmn2|wild}} Claydol appeared in ''[[DP181|Bucking the Treasure Trend!]]'', where it was guarding the treasure in [[Dandelion Island]]. It proved to be a strong Pokémon, standing up to [[Dawn's Piplup]] and [[Ash's Torterra]]. It was eventually {{pkmn2|caught}} by [[Buck]].

====Minor appearances====
Ash battled a Claydol during the beginning sequence of ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]''.

A Claydol appeared in the beginning sequence of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.

A Claydol appeared in ''[[M19|Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel]]'' as one of the Pokémon residing at [[Nebel Plateau]].

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Claydol and its {{p|Baltoy|pre-evolution}}.
* The symbols on Claydol's chest and back resemble the Q form of {{p|Unown}}.
* Claydol has the highest {{stat|Special Defense}} base stat of all {{type|Ground}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Claydol's design is similar to the 遮光器土偶 ''{{wp|Dogū|Shakōki-dogū}}''—a "spaceman" clay figurine from the {{wp|Jōmon period}} of Japanese history.

====Name origin====
Claydol is a combination of ''clay'' and ''idol'' or ''doll''. It may also involve ''{{wp|dreidel}}'' due to Claydol's pronunciation and its pre-evolution {{p|Baltoy}}'s similarity to {{wp|top}}s.

Nendoll may be a combination of 念 ''nen'' (thought), 粘土 ''nendo'' (clay), and ''doll''. ''Nen'' is found in various compounds having to do with {{wp|Extrasensory perception|ESP}}-related phenomena, such as 念写 ''nensha'' ({{wp|spirit photography}}) and 念動 ''nendō'' ({{wp|telekinesis}}).

'''Baltoy''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヤジロン''' ''Yajilon'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ground|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Claydol}} starting at [[level]] 36.

==Biology==
Baltoy is a small Pokémon that resembles a tan figurine made out of clay or mud. There are arching, red markings over its eyes, which usually appear closed. A red stripe encircles its body, and forms a ring on its belly. It has flat appendages that resemble arms. A spike protrudes from the top of its head and another, smaller spike under its body. It moves by spinning on this single, pointed foot, and balance upright on it to sleep. Baltoy is usually found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|ruins}} and old graveyards, where it congregates with its own kind and cries noisily. Old cave wall paintings depict it living with people in ancient times.

==In the anime==

===Major appearances===
Baltoy debuted in ''[[AG076|Me, Myself and Time]]'', under the ownership of a girl named {{OBP|Calista|AG076}}. Her Baltoy was first seen spinning around and heading to a cliff. {{Ash}} asked {{AP|Pikachu}} to use a {{m|Quick Attack}} to stop it. Later, it helped the future Calista's Baltoy (in other words, itself) by removing the rocks that were crushing it. Then, it used Rapid Spin in the middle of the wheel of drawings. It is then surrounded by beams of light revealing the true identity of the woman (who was future Calista).

In ''[[AG099|It's Still Rocket Roll to Me!]]'', [[Tate and Liza]] were using Baltoy's {{m|Confusion}} to recreate weightlessness during a Pokémon Battle, even though their main Pokémon already possess the ability to float in mid-air. Later in that same episode, these Clay Doll Pokémon stopped {{TRT}} from stealing the rocket ship.

Four Baltoy appeared in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', under the ownership of [[Damos]]. In the original timeline set up by the movie, they were used by Damos, who was under {{m|Hypnosis}}, to attack {{OBP|Arceus|M12}} with {{m|Shock Wave}}. When Ash and {{ashfr}} traveled to the past to prevent this, [[Marcus]], the one responsible for hypnotizing Damos, managed to use the Baltoy again to attack Arceus.

A Baltoy appeared in ''[[DP181|Bucking the Treasure Trend!]]'', under the ownership of [[Buck]]. It was Buck's main Pokémon and partner in treasure-hunting, having the ability to sense when treasure is near. It would indicate this to Buck by spinning. Baltoy was also a very powerful battler, as it was able to defeat the Claydol that was guarding the treasure hidden near [[Lily of the Valley Island]].

===Minor appearances===
A Baltoy is owned by one of the students of {{ci|Snowpoint}} [[Pokémon academy|Trainers' School]] in ''[[DP126|Classroom Training!]]''

'''Garchomp''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese:]] '''ガブリアス''' ''Gaburias'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dragon|Ground}} [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation IV]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Gabite}} starting at [[level]] 48. It is the final form of {{p|Gible}}. It can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Garchomp''' using the [[Garchompite]].

==Biology==
[[File:Garchomp Gliding.png|thumb|left|200px|Garchomp flying.]]
Garchomp is a bipedal, draconian Pokémon that is primarily dark blue in color. It has red on its underbelly from the lower jaw to the middle of the abdomen, including the undersides of its arms. A patch of gold comes to a point below the red on its belly, and a golden star shape adorns the tip of its snout. Garchomp has horn-like appendages that resemble a {{wp|jet}} or {{wp|plane}}'s engines, giving it an appearance similar to a {{wp|hammerhead shark}}. These allow it to sense its prey from a long distance. Its large mouth features razor-sharp teeth. The feet have three white talons, and each arm has a single large, white claw for a hand. Curved fins sprout from the arms, creating wings that allow Garchomp to fly. It also has a large dorsal fin and another on its tail that resembles a {{wp|shark}} {{wp|Caudal fin|tailfin}}. The male's dorsal fin has a notch on it. Pairs of small, white spikes protrude from its upper arms and legs, and there are gill-like slits on the sides of the neck. The eyes are intense, with black {{wp|scleras}} and gold-colored irises.

When Garchomp Mega Evolves, it grows in size and several of its features become more angular, including its head and shoulders. A row of five tooth-like spikes sprouts from each side of its abdomen, and red spikes grow from its knees. The claws and fins on its arms melt from the excessive Mega Evolution energy and morph together to form sharp, red blades. In this state, Garchomp is known to become mad with rage, and in its anger, slices the ground to pieces with its scythe-like blades.

Garchomp can {{tt|fly|although it cannot learn the move Fly}} at an incredible speed—helped by the fine scales on its body that reduce drag—to catch its prey. It preys on bird Pokémon, and is known to eat entire flocks of them whole. Garchomp is a cave-dweller and is seldom seen in the wild.

Garchomp is capable of folding up its body and spreading its wings, letting it move at Mach speed! Garchompite will Mega Evolve Garchomp into Mega Garchomp, increasing its power even more!''

'''PAL:''' ''There's something about Garchomp that appeals to the kid in all of us. It's basically a mach-speed flying dinosaur with spikes. What's not to love? When it folds up its body and extends its wings for flight, you might mistake it for a jet plane. And with a little Garchompite, it can Mega Evolve for extra firepower!''

==Trivia==
* Although the Garchomp in [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]] and [[PokéPark 2: Wonders Beyond|its sequel]] has no notch on his fin, he is referred to as male.

===Origin===
Appearance-wise, Garchomp seems like a cross between a {{wp|European dragon}}, various species of sharks (including the {{wp|hammerhead shark|hammerhead}}), and possibly a {{wp|dromaeosaurid}} or other {{wp|theropod}} dinosaur. In particular, considering Garchomp's saurian build with sharklike features, it may be a visual play on the ''{{wp|Carcharodontosaurus}}'', a theropod dinosaur whose name means "shark-toothed lizard". Its design also strongly resembles a {{wp|jet aircraft}}.

====Name origin====
Garchomp may be a combination and corruption of ''gore'' (a projecting point), ''guard'' or ''{{wp|Carcharodon}}'' (the scientific name for sharks) and ''chomp''. ''Gar'' may also derive from ''{{wp|garpike}}'' (a species of fish somewhat similar in appearance), ''gargantuan'' (relating to its size) or ''{{wp|gargoyle}}'' which occasionally bears a likeness to {{wp|European dragon}}s.

Gaburias may be a combination of がぶがぶ ''gabugabu'' (onomatopoeia for gulping) or がぶりと ''gaburito'' (bite or chew) and アース ''āsu'' (earth) or ''{{wp|Carcharias}}''.

'''Gabite''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese:]] '''ガバイト''' ''Gabite'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dragon|Ground}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IV]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Gible}} starting at [[level]] 24 and evolves into {{p|Garchomp}} starting at level 48.

==Biology==
Gabite is a medium-sized, bipedal dragon-like Pokémon that is primarily blue. Its underside is light blue, with red covering it from the middle of its abdomens to the bottoms of its jaw. Gabite has two appendages that resemble {{wp|jet}}s or {{wp|plane}} engines extending out the side of its skull. Each appendage has a blue stripe. It has four fins, one on each arm, one on its back and another on its tail. The back fin has a notch on it for the male. It has spikes on its hind limbs, and sharp claws on its feet. Its eyes have black {{wp|sclera}}s and {{wp|gold (color)|gold}} colored {{wp|Iris (anatomy)|irises}}.

Gabite is a fierce and predatory Pokémon, known for its scales, of which have medicinal properties and can heal most [[Status condition|illnesses]]. Gabite has short, extremely sharp teeth, like its pre-evolution, Gible. It has been known to move at {{stat|speed|extreme speeds}}. Gabite is also a very territorial creature, and will fight back against enemies to protect its home. Gabite has a habit of digging up gems and hoarding them in its nest.

==Trivia==
* Gabite shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Druddigon}}. They are both known as the Cave Pokémon.
* [[Gabite Scale]]s were stated to be a cure for [[Pokémon illness|sickness]] in the anime special ''[[SS020|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time & Darkness]]''.
* Due to [[List of censored words in Pokémon Black and White Versions|the censor]] that prevents Pokémon with offensive [[nickname]]s being traded on the [[GTS]], an English language Gabite cannot be traded on the GTS without a nickname in {{game|Black and White|s}}.

===Origin===
Appearance-wise, Gabite seems like a cross between a {{wp|European dragon}} and a {{wp|shark}}; it may be based on the {{wp|Bulette|landshark}} creature from {{wp|Dungeons & Dragons}}.

====Name origin====
Gabite may be a combination of がぶがぶ ''gabugabu'' (to gobble or gulp down) and ''bite''. It may also derive from がぶりと ''gaburito'' (bite or chew) or がぶりと噛み付く ''gaburitokamitsuku'' (to sink one's teeth into).

'''Gible''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese:]] '''フカマル''' ''Fukamaru'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dragon|Ground}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IV]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Gabite}} starting at [[level]] 24, which evolves into {{p|Garchomp}} starting at level 48.

==Biology==
Gible is a small, bipedal dragon-like Pokémon that is primarily blue. It has a big mouth filled with sharp teeth, no neck, and arms that start at the outer edges of its jaws. A red underbelly stretches from its abdomen to the bottom of its jaw. Gible has two horns that resemble {{wp|jet}} or {{wp|plane}} engines, each with a light blue stripe in the middle. It has a single light blue stripe wrapping around its back. On top of its head is a dorsal fin, which has a notch on it for the male. Its dorsal fin is strong enough to carry a person. Gible appears to be a good digger, making deep holes for homes in caverns. It enjoys play-fighting with other members of its species. It has tremendously strong jaws that it uses to bite enemies. However, when biting, it often hurts itself because of clumsiness.

==Trivia==
* The Gible evolutionary line made its anime debuts in reverse order of evolution. Garchomp appeared first in ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training]]'', Gabite appeared second in ''[[DP114|Another One Gabites the Dust!]]'', and Gible appeared last in ''[[DP145|A Rivalry to Gible On!]]''.

===Origin===
Appearance-wise, Gible seems like a cross between a {{wp|European dragon}} and a {{wp|shark}}. Gible and its evolved forms may also be a reference to the book ''{{wp|After Man: A Zoology of the Future}}''. One species mentioned is a type of land shark that lives in desert regions.

====Name origin====
Gible may be a combination of ''gobble'' or ''ground'' and ''nibble''.

Fukamaru may be a combination of 鱶 ''fuka'' (shark) and 丸 ''maru'' (round; also a suffix in young boy's names), and may also play on 深まる ''fukamaru'' (to deepen, to become deep).

'''Flygon''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''フライゴン''' ''Flygon'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ground|Dragon}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Vibrava}} starting at [[level]] 45. It is the final form of {{p|Trapinch}}.

==Biology==
Flygon resembles a slightly insectoid, bipedal dragon. It is primarily light green and has a pair of large rhombus-shaped wings with a red trim, toeless hind legs, and skinny arms with three-clawed hands. Its tail has several dark green stripes and three small green rhombus shapes with red trims at the end. It has large eyes, and a pair of green antennae that point back. The eyes have red covers that prevent sand from getting into its eyes. With its wings, it kicks up sandstorms to hide itself. Its wings make a "singing" sound when they are flapped, earning Flygon the name "The Desert Spirit". It lives in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|desert}}. Flygon coexist well with {{p|Krookodile}} in searching for food.

==In the anime==
[[File:Mallow Flygon.png|250px|thumb|left|Flygon in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
Flygon debuted in ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''. It helped save {{OBP|Jirachi|M06}} from [[Butler]]. It briefly reappeared in a flashback in the opening sequence of ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', and also in a montage in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'' that chronicled the preceding nine movies.

[[Drew]] owns a Flygon, which debuted in ''[[AG123|Rhapsody in Drew]]''. It was first seen participating in the [[Contest Battle|Battle Stage]] of the [[Hoenn Grand Festival]].

{{an|Mallow}} used a Flygon as a [[Poké Ride|Ride Pokémon]] in [[SM061]].

===Minor appearances===
Flygon made its main series debut in ''[[AG060|Delcatty Got Your Tongue]]'', where it was used by a {{pkmn|Trainer}} in a battle against [[Dr. Abby|Abby]]'s {{DL|Dr. Abby|Johnny|Skitty}}. However, it was presented as a black silhouette.

A Flygon appeared in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''.

A Flygon appeared in the opening sequence of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Hoenn}}
{{Animedexbody|AG123|Flygon|Ash's Pokédex|Flygon, the Mystic Pokémon. Flygon is the evolved form of Vibrava. It's known as "The Desert Spirit" because of the song-like voice that emanates from the {{m|sandstorm}}s it kicks up.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|''Advanced Generation''|Hoenn}}

==In the manga==
[[File:Wally Flygon.png|thumb|200px|Flygon in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
A Flygon was one of the Pokémon belonging to [[Norman]], who mostly used it for aerial transport. After taking {{adv|Wally}} under his wing for the sake of awaking {{p|Rayquaza}}, he gave it to the boy. It first appeared in ''[[PS240|Talk About Timing, Treecko]]''.

[[Draconid]] [[Jinga]], [[Renza]], and [[Tomatoma]] all own a Flygon, appearing in ''[[PAORAS06|Omega Alpha Adventure 6]]''.

[[Aarune]]'s Flygon appeared in a flashback in ''[[PAORAS16|Omega Alpha Adventure 16]]''.

==Trivia==
* Flygon shares its {{pkmn|category|categories}} with {{p|Xatu}}. They are both known as the Mystic Pokémon in English, and the Spirit Pokémon in Japanese.
* Flygon has the same base {{stat|Attack}} stat as its base form, {{p|Trapinch}}.
* All of Vibrava's [[base stats]] go up by exactly 30 points when it evolves into Flygon.
* Flygon's [[Effort values|effort value]] [[List of Pokémon by effort value yield|yield]] of 1 Attack and 2 Speed is unique.
* According to [[Ken Sugimori]] in his interview in the Nintendo Dream magazine, Flygon was intended to get a [[Mega Evolution]] in [[Pokémon X and Y]], but the idea was later dropped due to him experiencing an artist's block.

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Trapinch, Vibrava and Flygon}}
Flygon is based on the winged, adult stage of the {{wp|antlion}}, which highly resembles a dragonfly. Often the adult antlion and dragonfly are confused with one another, and Flygon could draw inspiration from both. In fact, some species of dragonflies are commonly called "sand dragons", which could account for Vibrava and Flygon's type combination. In keeping with its Dragon type, it also possesses a dragon-like build and reptilian features such as its arms and tail.

====Name origin====
Flygon is a combination of ''fly'' and ''dragon''. It may also be a partial anagram of ''{{wp|dragonfly}}''.

'''Vibrava''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ビブラーバ''' ''Vibrava'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ground|Dragon}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Trapinch}} starting at [[level]] 35 and evolves into {{p|Flygon}} starting at level 45.

==Biology==
Vibrava is a dragonfly-like Pokémon. It has a small head with two yellow antennae and green bulging eyes with black oval-shaped pupils. Its mouth has two large white teeth protruding from each side. It has a skinny yellow body, four skinny black legs with slender feet, and four green, rhombus-shaped wings with black edges. There are similarly-colored rhombus shapes at the end of its tail. Vibrava's wings are not fully developed, so it is unable to fly very far. However, it is able to create vibrations and ultrasonic waves with its wings. Humans get headaches from these waves. After causing prey to faint, it uses acid to melt the prey. Vibrava lives on {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|rough terrains}}.

==In the anime==
[[File:Brianna Vibrava.png|thumb|left|220px|Vibrava in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
Vibrava made its main series debut in ''[[AG106|Beg, Burrow and Steal]]''. Dozens of {{p|Trapinch}} were seen evolving into them at an underground lake. {{TRT}} made a failed attempt to steal the Vibration Pokémon despite the fact the idea {{MTR}} had of using their previous forms as nut-crackers was now foiled. The Vibrava helped {{Ash}}, {{an|May}}, [[Max]], {{an|Brock}}, {{OBP|Hal|AG106}}, and [[Elisa]] out of the underground labyrinth.

A {{pkmn|Coordinator}} named [[Brianna]] used a Vibrava in the [[Contest Battle|Battle Stage]] of the {{isl|Chrysanthemum}} {{pkmn|Contest}} in ''[[AG162|Spontaneous Combusken]]''.

===Minor appearances===
Vibrava debuted in ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'', in the form of a swarm.

A Vibrava appeared in ''[[AG121|Hi Ho Silver Wind!]]'', under the ownership of a {{pkmn|Coordinator}} participating in the [[Hoenn Grand Festival]].

A Coordinator's Vibrava appeared in ''[[AG160|Harley Rides Again]]''.

A Vibrava appeared in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! (Part 1)]]''.

A {{pkmn|Trainer}}'s Vibrava appeared in ''[[XY077|A Relay in the Sky!]]'', where it was a participant in the [[Pokémon Sky Relay]]. It was in a team also consisting of {{p|Ninjask}} and {{p|Shedinja}}.

Five Vibrava appeared in ''[[SM046|Deceiving Appearances!]]''.

==Trivia==
* All of Vibrava's [[base stats]] go up by exactly 30 points when it evolves into {{p|Flygon}}.
* Vibrava shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Palpitoad}} and {{p|Seismitoad}}. They are all known as the Vibration Pokémon.
* Vibrava and its evolution are the only Dragon-type Pokémon belonging in the {{egg3|Bug}}.
* {{p|Trapinch}}'s Attack stat goes down when it evolves into Vibrava, but returns to the original stat when it evolves into {{p|Flygon}}.

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Trapinch, Vibrava and Flygon}}
Vibrava is based on the adult stage of an {{wp|antlion}}. Often the adult antlion and dragonfly are confused with one another, and Vibrava could draw inspiration from both. In fact, some species of dragonflies are commonly called "sand dragons", which could account for Vibrava and Flygon's type combination.

====Name origin====
Vibrava may be a combination of ''vibrate'' (to shake rapidly) and ''{{wp|larva}}''. It may also derive from ''{{wp|European dragon#Dragons in Catalan mythology|Vibra}}''.

'''Trapinch''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ナックラー''' ''Nuckrar'') is a {{type|Ground}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Vibrava}} starting at [[level]] 35, which evolves into {{p|Flygon}} starting at level 45.

==Biology==
Trapinch is an orange, insectoid Pokémon. It has a round body with a white underside and four stumpy legs. It has a proportionally large head, small eyes, and a zigzagging mouth. Its large jaws are powerful enough to crush boulders.

==Trivia==
* Trapinch is the only one in its evolutionary line to have a Hidden Ability.
* Trapinch is the lowest base {{stat|Speed}} stat of all {{type|Ground}} Pokémon.
* Trapinch's base Attack stat is higher than its {{p|Vibrava|evolved form}}'s and is the same as its {{p|Flygon|final evolved form}}'s. That may be a reference to the fact that antlion larvae are more aggressive and predatory than their adult stages.
** It has the highest base Attack stat of all Pokémon that can evolve twice.

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Trapinch, Vibrava and Flygon}}
It is based on the larval stage of the {{wp|antlion}}, which live in conical sandy pits before maturing into winged adults.

====Name origin====
Trapinch is a combination of ''trap'' (describing traps it uses to catch prey) and ''pinch'' (referring to its powerful jaws).

Nuckrar may be a contraction of ''{{wp|nutcracker}}'', referencing its nutcracker-like jaws. Nuckrar may also be a play on the word "{{wp|knucker}}", a type of folkloric dragon which lives in a hole.

'''Krookodile''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ワルビアル''' ''Waruvial'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ground|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Krokorok}} starting at [[level]] 40. It is the final form of {{p|Sandile}}.

==Biology==
Krookodile has a thick maroon-colored body, black back, and white stomach. It has five triangular spikes on its back: four around the middle of its back, and one large one at the beginning of its tail. Each of the smaller spikes on its back are linked to black, triangular spikes that reach around to its front, slightly overlapping its white stomach. The largest spike sits at the beginning of its long thick tail, which has three, thick, black stripes. The last stripe covers the tip of the tail. Its legs are very short and directly attached to its feet. The feet are wrapped in black and have three white claws facing forward. Krookodile's arms are short and thin with a black stripe around the elbow. Its long, thin fingers are each tipped with a white claw.

Its head is slightly pointed and contains a distinctive black membrane that surrounds both eyes. The outline of the membrane angles upward sharply, coming to points above the top of Krookodile's head. It uses this distinctive look to harshly intimidate opponents. Its eyes are very powerful, with variable focus, allowing it to see things at a great distance. Its other notable feature is its long snout, containing a black stripe around the bridge, and large pointed nostrils on the end. Four of its rear and two of its front teeth slightly overlap its lower jaw. Krookodile's jaws are extremely powerful, giving it the ability to crush objects as large and durable as an automobile. These features are topped by Krookodile's extremely violent temper. It has been known to clamp down on any moving object, and will do everything it can to make sure its prey cannot escape. Krookodile coexist well with {{p|Flygon}} in searching for food.

Krookodile is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Power Trip}}.

===NPC Appearances===
{{spoilers}}
* {{g|Rumble Blast}}: Krookodile is one of the first of {{p|Cobalion}}'s minions that the player encounters. It stole all of [[Toy Town]] and [[Easterly Town]]'s [[Glowdrop]]s, then was beaten by the player in the {{DL|Sun-Dappled Bank|Mysterious Fort}}. It was later seen in the World Axle Front, where it is [[Rusty Pokémon|rusted]] like the rest of Cobalion's army.
* {{g|Super Mystery Dungeon}}: {{OBP|Krookodile|Super Mystery Dungeon}} is a local gangster in [[Lively Town]]. When warning letters start appearing around town stating that [[Legendary Pokémon]] are the targets of petrification incidents and that {{p|Entei}} would be the next target, the [[Expedition Society]] soon suspects Krookodile is behind the incidents. After the player, partner, and {{p|Archen}} pursue Krookodile to the top of [[Revelation Mountain]], it is revealed that it was a trap set up by Nuzleaf and that he paid Krookodile to write the letters. Nuzleaf then summons {{p|Yveltal}} and the two of them turn everyone, including Krookodile, to stone.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon have the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Krookodile and its {{p|Sandile|evolutionary}} {{p|Krokorok|relatives}}.
* Krookodile is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 519.

===Origin===
Like {{p|Sandile}}, Krookodile is also based on {{wp|crocodilia|crocodilians}}, more specifically a {{wp|slender-snouted crocodile}} and the {{wp|spectacled caiman}}. Krookodile also seems to be based on the ''{{wp|Baryonyx}}'', a fish-eating, slender-snouted dinosaur which heavily resembled a crocodilian, and possibly a {{wp|gharial}}, due to its long snout.

In line with its {{t|Dark}} [[type]] and names, it may also be based on a gang leader or simply a criminal, as the markings around its eyes bear great resemblance to triangular sunglasses, which are associated with manga and anime criminals, such as [[Ash's Squirtle]]. It could also be a reference to {{wp|Sobek}}, a half-crocodile deity also associated with violence and even robbery.

====Name origin====
Krookodile is a combination of corruptions of ''crook'' and ''{{wp|crocodile}}''.

Waruvial is a combination of 悪い ''warui'' (bad/evil) and ''{{wp|gavial}}''.

'''Krokorok''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ワルビル''' ''Waruvile'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ground|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Sandile}} starting at [[level]] 29 and evolves into {{p|Krookodile}} starting at level 40.

==Biology==
Krokorok is a reptilian Pokémon with a mostly tan body, pink stomach, black back, and long tail. It is classified as a quadruped, though it is more often seen on two legs. It has six thick, black stripes on its body: one at shoulder level, one around its midsection, one around its hips, and three on its tail. Each stripe is topped with a triangular spike on its back. The stripes around its midsection cross two spikes, one on each side of its back. Its arms are short and thin, with a black band around them at the elbow. Each hand contains three short fingers, each with a white claw. Its legs are thick with a band around each ankle, and a stripe above the knee that does not wrap around. Its flat feet each have three white claws. Krokorok's head is ovoid with a long snout, and small eyes surrounded by a thick black membrane. Two of its front and rear teeth are visible overlapping its lower jaw. A black stripe sits on the bridge of the snout just behind its large nostrils.

Krokorok prefers to live in the desert, usually in small groups. The black membrane surrounding its eyes protects them from sandstorms and acts as a thermal detector. This allows Krokorok to see the temperature of different objects, which also gives it exceptional night vision.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon have the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Krokorok and its {{p|Sandile|evolutionary}} {{p|Krookodile|relatives}}.
* Krokorok is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 351.
* Almost all of Krokorok's stats are ten points higher than Sandile's stats; the only exception is Speed, which is just higher by 9 points.

===Origin===
Krokorok seems to be based on the ''{{wp|Baryonyx}}'', a fish-eating, slender-snouted dinosaur which heavily resembled a {{wp|crocodilia}}n. Like its {{p|Sandile|pre-evolution}}, it is also based on a {{wp|crocodile}}, more specifically a {{wp|slender-snouted crocodile}} and the {{wp|spectacled caiman}}. Its eyes, pose, and stripes make it appear to be a criminal, which is supported by its Dark type. It could also be a reference to {{wp|Sobek}}, a half-crocodile deity also associated with violence and even robbery.

====Name origin====
Krokorok is a combination of corruptions of ''{{wp|crocodile}}'' and ''rock''.

Waruvile may be a combination of 悪い ''warui'' (bad/evil/sinful), ''evil'', ''vile'', and ''crocodile''. It may also derive from ''{{wp|gavial}}''.

'''Sandile''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''メグロコ''' ''Meguroco'') is a dual-type {{2t|Ground|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Krokorok}} starting at [[level]] 29, which evolves into {{p|Krookodile}} starting at level 40.

==Biology==
Sandile is a short, quadruped with a long snout and tail. Its body is mostly light brown with the exception of black stripes crossing over and under its legs and its pink underbelly. It has a black stripe on its snout in front of its eyes, and black covering the tip of its tail. Its eyes resemble shaded binoculars and are shrouded in black all around their front. The black is a membrane that prevents sand from getting in Sandile's eyes and helps it see in the harsh desert sun. Its long snout is tipped by two protruding nostrils, and its mouth comprises the bottom half. Its feet are flat and contain three sharp, black claws. They are attached to stubby legs on its sides.

Sandile is only found in deserts. It usually burrows under the surface, with only its nose and eyes above the sand. Due to being so close to the surface, it can move around the desert and allow the heat of the sand to regulate its body temperature. As seen [[BW003|in the anime]], in the wild, Sandile can be mischievous and potentially troublesome to humans. However, Sandile will protect another of its species, and can be caring at times. Sandile is known to prey on {{p|Trapinch}}.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon have the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Sandile and its {{p|Krookodile|evolutionary}} {{p|Krokorok|relatives}}.

===Origin===
Sandile seems to be based on a {{wp|crocodile}}; it has traits from both the {{wp|slender-snouted crocodile}} and the {{wp|spectacled caiman}}. Its striped design is similar to a stereotypical burglar. Based on its Pokédex entry, it also seems to be inspired by a {{wp|Scincus scincus|sandfish}}, a desert skink that's able to "swim" through the sand.

====Name origin====
Sandile is a combination of ''{{wp|sand}}'' and ''{{wp|crocodile}}'' and also a play on ''sandal'', which is footwear used for walking on sand.

Meguroco may be a combination of 目黒 ''meguro'' (black-eyed) and ''crocodile''.

'''Golem''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ゴローニャ''' ''Golonya'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Ground}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Graveler}} when [[trade]]d. It is the final form of {{p|Geodude}}.

In [[Alola]], Golem has a [[regional variant]] that is {{2t|Rock|Electric}}. It evolves from Alolan Graveler when traded. It is the final form of Alolan Geodude.

==Biology==
Golem is a bipedal tortoise-like Pokémon with plated, green rocks as its shell. Golem grows bigger by shedding its skin once a year. The discarded shell immediately hardens when exposed to air, crumbling away and returning to the soil. Golem has a head protruding out of the center of the shell, short arms that have three claws, and two legs with five-clawed feet that have four claws in front and one in back. It has red eyes and a flat snout with two pointed teeth in its lower jaw. As shown in the [[Pocket Monsters Carddass Trading Cards]], Golem's shell is hollow.

[[EP036|The anime]] has shown that Golem is able to withdraw its head, arms, and legs into its shell and roll at high speeds. Golem is dangerous when doing this, as it is unable to see and may crash into or run over anything in its path. To prevent it from rolling into the homes of people downhill, grooves are dug into the sides of the mountains to divert the rolling Golem's course. Golem's body is so hard that even dynamite cannot scratch it. Golem is seldom seen in the wild. However, it can be found living in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountainous}} regions.

The Alolan Golem has shorter forearms with two claws and only two claws on its feet. The face has attracted more iron sand, creating the appearance of a mustache, eyebrows and a large black beard. Above its head are two large black rocks jutting out of its body. On the inner edge of these rocks are three golden dots. In-between the two large rocks is a shorter black rock. The Alolan Golem is capable of firing this rock for attacking; if it is not available, it will fire nearby {{p|Geodude}} instead.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Alolan Golem and its Alolan {{p|Geodude|evolutionary}} {{p|Graveler|relatives}}.
* Alolan Golem, along with its Alolan evolutionary relatives, were designed by [[Hitoshi Ariga]].
* Between {{3v|Red|Blue|Yellow}} in [[Generation I]], Golem is the only Pokémon that cannot ever be seen without trading; however, its existence is implied by a [[non-player character]] who had just received his friend's {{p|Graveler}}.
* Alolan Golem has the highest base {{stat|Defense}} stat of all {{type|Electric}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Golem is probably based on a tortoise. Tortoise are believed to hold the world on their backs in many myths, including the Hindu, Chinese and Native American mythologies. Its "shell" may represent the {{wp|tectonic plates}} of Earth.

Alolan Golem, like its predecessors, seems to have taken on the attributes of {{wp|magnetite}}, a subset of iron ore known for its black crystalline appearance in nature. The crystals on its back also may be derived from the {{wp|railgun}}.

====Name origin====
Golem is a reference to the {{wp|golem}}s of medieval and {{wp|Jewish mythology|Hebrew}} legend.

Golonya may be a combination of ''{{wp|golem}}'' and ''stone''. Additionally, ゴロゴローン ''gorogorōn'' is the sound of rolling, a habit of Golem.

'''Graveler''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ゴローン''' ''Golone'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Ground}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Geodude}} starting at [[level]] 25 and evolves into {{p|Golem}} when [[trade]]d.

In [[Alola]], Graveler has a [[regional variant]] that is {{2t|Rock|Electric}}. It evolves from Alolan Geodude starting at level 25 and evolves into Alolan Golem when traded.

==Biology==
Graveler is a living, bipedal boulder. It has a rocky crest about its small eyes. It has four arms, each with a three-fingered hand. It was shown in [[Pokémon Snap]] that, despite having legs, it can revert to a legless form. This grants it the ability to float.

Its preferred locomotion is rolling, specifically because it is a slow walker. It often rolls down mountain paths at high speeds, crushing objects in the way and stopping by running into huge rocks. If it breaks or shatters, it has the ability to restore itself overtime. Graveler climbs a mountain from base to summit, feasting on rocks all the while. Upon reaching the peak, Graveler rolls down to the bottom. Graveler can be often found on {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountain trails}}.

The Alolan Graveler looks similar to their regular counterpart, with the addition of {{wp|dravite}} crystals on parts of its body, and iron sand attracted by magnetism. This iron sand is concentrated above its eyes, giving the appearance of a uni-brow. There are also iron sand hairs on its outer arms and the sides of its face. The Alolan Graveler lacks defined digits on its upper limbs and has two toes on each foot rather than three.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Alolan Graveler and its Alolan {{p|Geodude|evolutionary}} {{p|Golem|relatives}}.
* Alolan Graveler, along with its Alolan evolutionary relatives, were designed by [[Hitoshi Ariga]].
* Graveler's {{v2|Crystal}} sprite is different from that of {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}, making it one of few Pokémon to have three distinctly different sprites in [[Generation II]].
* Graveler's {{2v|Red|Blue}} sprite shows an incorrect number of limbs; only four are visible. This was corrected in {{game|Yellow}}.
** [[Mato]]'s rendition of the Pokémon also depicts {{adv|Yellow}}'s Graveler with four limbs, possibly for this reason. All other Graveler that have since appeared in [[Pokémon Adventures]] have shown the right amount.
* Graveler is the only Pokémon unavailable for use in the [[Pika Cup]] who can evolve, despite that Golem is available.

===Origin===
Graveler appears to be based on a boulder. Its four arms may be based on Hindu gods such as {{wp|Shiva}} or {{wp|Vishnu}}.

====Name origin====
Graveler is possibly derived from ''{{wp|gravel}}''. It could also be a corruption of ''groveler'', someone who bows at the feet of a superior.

Golone may be a combination of ''{{wp|golem}}'' and ''stone''. Additionally, ゴロゴローン ''gorogorōn'' is the sound of rolling, a pastime of Graveler.

'''Geodude''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''イシツブテ''' ''Isitsubute'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Ground}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Graveler}} starting at [[level]] 25, which evolves into {{p|Golem}} when [[trade]]d.

In [[Alola]], Geodude has a [[regional variant]] that is {{2t|Rock|Electric}}. It evolves into Alolan Graveler starting at level 25, which evolves into Alolan Golem when traded.

==Biology==
Geodude is a gray boulder Pokémon. It has bulging, rocky eyebrows and trapezoidal, brown eyes. Its arms are muscular with five-fingered hands. Geodude uses its arms to climb steadily up steep mountain paths. Geodude is proud of its sturdy body and will bash against others of its kind in a contest of sorts to prove whose body is harder. The longer it lives, the more chipped and worn its body becomes.

Geodude can be most often found on {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountain trails}} and fields. It will sit still in these areas, which is why it is often mistaken for a rock. It is often stepped on, and will sometimes swing its arms in anger when this occurs. When Geodude sleeps deeply, it buries itself halfway into the ground. Once buried, it will not awaken even if someone steps on it. In the morning, Geodude rolls downhill in search of food.

The Geodude of the Alola region are made from a magnetic rock which grants them the {{Type|Electric}}. There are areas on the Alolan Geodude's body that are especially magnetic and attracts iron sand, creating the appearance of black eyebrows and strands of short black hair. Only the thumb and index fingers on the Geodude's hands are free while the other fingers have fused together.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Alolan Geodude and its Alolan {{p|Graveler|evolutionary}} {{p|Golem|relatives}}.
* Alolan Geodude, along with its Alolan evolutionary relatives, were designed by [[Hitoshi Ariga]].
* Alolan Geodude has the lowest base {{stat|Special Attack}}, {{stat|Special Defense}}, and {{stat|Speed}} stats of all {{type|Electric}} Pokémon.
* In the Japanese game {{game|Blue|_(Japanese)}}, Geodude [[List of Pokémon by weight|weighs]] 2.0 kg instead of 20.0 kg (as it does in all other games). This has no mechanical significance, as no game mechanics use weight in the handheld [[Generation I]] games.
* Alolan Geodude's evolutionary line is the only three-stage evolutionary line in which all members have an Alola Form.

===Origin===
Geodude is based upon a living rock or boulder.

====Name origin====
Geodude may be a combination of the prefix ''[[Wiktionary:geo-|geo-]]'', from γῆ gē, Greek for earth, and ''[[Wiktionary:dude|dude]]'', a slang word for a male. It may also be from ''{{wp|geode}}'', a usually hollow volcanic rock with crystal inside, and ''dude''.

Isitsubute is a combination of 石 ''ishi'' (stone) and 礫 ''tsubute'' (throwing stones).

'''Electivire''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''エレキブル''' ''Elekible'') is an {{type|Electric}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IV]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Electabuzz}} when [[trade]]d holding an [[Electirizer]]. It is the final form of {{p|Elekid}}.

==Biology==
Electivire is a large humanoid creature covered in yellow fur with black stripes. It appears to lack a neck, and has red eyes, a black spot on its forehead, and a pair of antennae with bulbous tips. A pattern on Electivire’s back resembles an electric outlet. The fur on its cheeks and shoulders is spiky and ruffled. It has two black tails with red rounded ends, resembling open electrical wires. Electivire has black feet with three, clawed toes, and five black fingers on each of its hands.

Electivire is known to be recklessly careless regarding enemy attacks. The tips of its tails generate electricity, which shock opponents on contact with over 20,000 volts. It can also electrify its punches by gripping on to its tails. Blue sparks fly between its antennae as its electric charge amplifies. It thumps its chest when excited, causing thunder and sparks to fly around it. Electivire usually feed off electric currents. In [[AG192|the anime]], Electivire has been seen eating fruits from trees. A single Electivire is capable of powering a large city for an entire year.

==Trivia==
[[File:Voldon.png|thumb|Voldon's Electivire Costume]]
* Electivire shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Zebstrika}}. They are both known as the Thunderbolt Pokémon.
** It is one of a few Pokémon whose species name in English is the same as the name of a {{m|Thunderbolt|move}}.
* Electivire, along with {{p|Magmortar}}, {{p|Gliscor}}, and {{p|Tangrowth}}, are the only {{cat|Generation IV Pokémon}} that explicitly required the use of a [[Generation III]] game in order to be available until the release of {{game|Platinum}}. In this case, both the [[Electirizer]] and {{p|Elekid}} are only available through [[dual-slot mode]] with {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Pokémon FireRed|s}}.
** This excludes the special Electivire available through Battle Revolution.
* An Electivire Costume is worn by [[Voldon]] in Pokémon Battle Revolution.
* Electivire was the only [[Generation IV]] Pokémon in the {{pkmn|anime}} that [[AG192|debuted]] before the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} without debuting in a {{pkmn|movie}} first.

===Origin===
Electivire was likely based on a {{wp|gorilla}} due to it being two-legged and its hairy features. It may also be based on a {{wp|Yeti}}, an ape-like {{wp|cryptid}} that was said to inhabit the {{wp|Himalaya Mountains}}. Unlike a gorilla, it can easily walk on two legs. Its design and Motor Drive Ability are similar to an electric motor, while the mark on its back resembles a socket. Its horns may be based on {{wp|Tesla coils}}.

====Name origin====
Electivire is a combination of ''electric'' or ''electricity'' and ''wire'' (referring to its cord-like tails). It may also derive from ''live wire'', a wire in which electric current flows.

Elekible may be a combination of ''electric'' or ''electricity'' and ''cable''.

'''Electabuzz''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''エレブー''' ''Eleboo'') is an {{type|Electric}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Elekid}} starting at [[level]] 30 and evolves into {{p|Electivire}} when [[trade]]d holding an [[Electirizer]].

==Biology==
Electabuzz is a slightly humanoid creature with a few feline traits. It is covered in yellow fur with black stripes; a large stripe on its chest is shaped like a lightning bolt. It has a long tail. There are three, clawed toes on each of its feet, two in front and one in back, while it has five fingers on each hand. Electabuzz has two sharp fangs and a pair of antennae with bulbous ends. In the dark, Electabuzz will glow a light blue with the electrical charge stored inside of it.

Electabuzz is capable of storing huge amounts of electrical energy inside of its body over long periods. During torrential thunderstorms, Electabuzz will compete to determine which is capable of attaining the highest ground, so as to be most likely struck by a bolt of lightning. If struck, Electabuzz will absorb the electricity and will not be harmed. It is in this same manner that captured Electabuzz are sometimes used in small towns as an alternative to lightning rods.

As demonstrated in [[EP042|the anime]], Electabuzz is enraged by the color red. If this Pokémon sees the color red, it will become violent and raze the area around it. In battle, Electabuzz windmills its arms, apparently to add momentum to its punches. This method of battle seems ineffective, as its opponent has been known to escape in the meantime. It is also capable of entirely nonverbal communication via electrical currents when in close proximity to another of its species. Electabuzz typically resides in or around power plants, and can also be found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grasslands}}. It has been known to wander into cities and cause blackouts.

==Trivia==
[[File:Stadium125.png|thumb|right|150px|Note its fingers]]
* Electabuzz and its {{p|Elekid|pre-evolution}} share their {{pkmn|category}} name with {{p|Zapdos}}. They are all known as the Electric Pokémon.
* {{p|Magmar}} and Electabuzz seem to be counterparts; both evolve in a very similar way (first at level 30, then after being traded holding an item which has a name that ends with the suffix "-izer"), and both are typically exclusive to one version of a pair of games. They both have similar status-inducing Abilities in Flame Body and Static, as well as the same Hidden Ability, Vital Spirit. Since Generation V, they also often learn similar moves at the same level. They even have the same special moves when purified in Pokémon XD: {{m|Follow Me}} and {{m|Cross Chop}}. Their pre-evolutions and evolutions were released in the same generation (Generation II and IV).
* Electabuzz is the only member of its family not to have some physical relation to an {{wp|AC power plugs and sockets|AC power unit}}. Elekid's head is shaped like a power plug while Electivire's back pattern looks like a power socket.
* Electabuzz is depicted with six fingers (five fingers and one thumb) on both of its hands in [[Pokémon Stadium]].

===Origin===
Electabuzz is likely based on the Japanese {{wp|oni (Japanese folklore)|oni}} that was a horned ogre that wore tiger skin and was sometimes depicted as a god of lightning and thunder. Its tail looks like that of a {{wp|tiger}}.
====Name origin====
Electabuzz is a combination of ''electric'' and ''buzz'' (possibly referring to the humming sound of electricity).

Eleboo may be a combination of ''electric'' and ブンブン ''bunbun'' (buzz).

'''Elekid''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''エレキッド''' ''Elekid'') is an {{type|Electric}} [[baby Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Electabuzz}} starting at [[level]] 30, which evolves into {{p|Electivire}} when [[trade]]d holding an [[Electirizer]].

==Biology==
Elekid is a yellow, round-bodied Pokémon with black stripes. Elekid's arms are bulky in proportion to its body, and it has three claws instead of fingers. It has two stripes on its arms, which wrap all the way around. There are two horns on top of its head which resemble the prongs of a plug, complete with holes in their sides. Elekid has a black lightning bolt marking on its chest. Two rows of stripes are near the marking, with the pattern continuing around its lower back. Its legs are black, and its feet are rounded and toeless.

Elekid tends to play out in the middle of thunderstorms. By rotating its arms, it generates electricity. However, it tires easily and can only charge a small amount. A weak electrical charge travels between its horns as well. It lives in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grasslands.}}

==In the anime==

===Major appearances===
====[[Paul's Electivire|Paul's Elekid]]====
[[Paul]] owned an Elekid. He used it to battle [[Ash's Pikachu]] in ''[[DP003|When Pokémon Worlds Collide!]]'' and [[Roark]] in ''[[DP015|Shapes of Things to Come]]''.

'''Manectric''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ライボルト''' ''Livolt'') is an {{type|Electric}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Electrike}} starting at [[level]] 26. It can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Manectric''' using the [[Manectite]].

==Biology==
Manectric is a canine, quadruped Pokémon. Its body is mainly blue with a spiky, yellow mane on its head and yellow tufts of fur on its haunches and around its front feet. Its mane sticks straight up and has three points. It has a jagged upper jaw, red eyes, and holes on either side of its head that seem to be its ears. Each of its paws has three claws. Its blue, spike-like tail is bent at a sharp angle.

The yellow mane on Mega Manectric is considerably larger than its previous state. The center spike on its head has shifted, and now forms a large, tilted growth that extends over its snout and has a point on either end. The remaining two head spikes are thinner, longer, and have small, pointed bulbs in place of the earholes. The mane now extends down the length of Mega Manectric's body, forming four additional spikes. One of these spikes extends down past the Pokémon’s chest and has points on both ends. The tufts of fur on its haunches are now blue and form more numerous, thinner points. While it retains the yellow tufts around its front feet, they now have two short spikes extending backward. Finally, Mega Manectric lacks the sharply angled tail of its previous state and now has red claws.

Manectric gathers electricity its mane and then discharges it. This process creates thunderclouds, which it uses in battle. Since lightning falls in its vicinity, it is said to have been born from lightning and make its nest where lightning has struck. It lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grassy areas}}, and often appears in front of people.

==In the anime==
[[File:Officer Jenny Manectric.png|thumb|250px|left|Manectric in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Wattson's Manectric]]====
Manectric made its main series debut under the ownership of [[Wattson]], who obtained it as an {{p|Electrike}} in ''[[AG040|Watt's with Wattson?]]''. It evolved in ''[[AG059|A Manectric Charge]]'', where it battled against [[Ash's Torkoal]] and won.

====[[Officer Jenny's Manectric]]====
[[Officer Jenny]] in the [[Kalos]] region mostly use Manectric, as {{p|Growlithe}} and {{p|Herdier}} are not native to the region.

====Other====
An Electrike appeared in ''[[DP042|The Electrike Company!]]'', under the ownership of [[Jaco]]. In the episode, it evolved into Manectric.

Five Manectric appeared in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', under the ownership of [[Damos]].

[[Celosia]]'s Manectric appeared in ''[[XY102|Meeting at Terminus Cave!]]'', where it was sent out to pursue [[Squishy]], alongside [[Bryony]]'s {{p|Liepard}}. It was stopped in its tracks by [[Ash's Pikachu]] and {{AP|Greninja}}. After it and Liepard were both overwhelmed by Greninja's Ash-Greninja form, Manectric used {{m|Flash}} to allow [[Team Flare]] to escape.

A Manectric that can Mega Evolve appeared in ''[[M19|Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel]]'', under the control of [[Cherie]]'s Mega Wave. Manectric was used to battle against Pikachu, [[Clemont's Luxray]], and {{OBP|Volcanion|M19}}.

==Trivia==
* Mega Manectric is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 575.

===Origin===
It may be based on a {{wp|maned wolf}} and a {{wp|yōkai}} of Japanese lore, the 雷獣 ''{{wp|Raijū}}'', an elemental lightning creature that can take on the shape of various mammals, including a blue {{wp|wolf}} wrapped in white and yellow lightning. Manectric's snout also resembles a {{wp|crocodile clip}}.

====Name origin====
Manectric may be a combination of ''mane'' and ''electric''.

Livolt may be a combination of ''lion'' or ''live'' (referring to a wire actively carrying an electric current) and ''volt''. It may also be a combination of 雷 ''rai'' (thunder) and ''bolt''.

'''Electrike''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ラクライ''' ''Rakurai'') is an {{type|Electric}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Manectric}} starting at [[level]] 26.

==Biology==
Electrike is a green, canine Pokémon with yellow markings. It has a large head crest with angular, lightning-like markings on the side. Its snout has a yellow blaze, and four fangs are discernible when its mouth is open. It has a yellow stripe down its back. Each of its four legs has a spike, with the ones on its hind legs being longer. It has yellow crescent-shaped paw pads on its front feet, while the pads on its hind feet are circular. It has a small, pointed, yellow-tipped tail.

Using the electric charge found in its fur, Electrike stimulates its leg muscles and runs faster than the human eye can follow. It uses friction from the atmosphere to generate electricity. Because of this, its body gives off showers of sparks in seasons with arid air or before a storm. As shown [[DP042|in the anime]], using metal brushes to groom the Electrike will cause the metal to conduct the electrical charge in the fur and subsequently shock the handler. It lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grassy areas}}.

==In the anime==
[[File:Wattson Electrike.png|left|thumb|220px|left|Electrike in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Wattson's Electrike]]====
Electrike made its main series debut in ''[[AG040|Watt's with Wattson?]]''. After [[Wattson]] was easily defeated by {{Ash}} during their [[Mauville Gym|Gym]] battle, Wattson needed some time alone. During this, an Electrike came to comfort the [[Mauville City]] [[Gym Leader]]. Wattson decided to keep it as one of his own Pokémon. It later evolved into {{p|Manectric}} in ''[[AG059|Manectric Charge]]''.

====Other====
An Electrike appeared in ''[[DP042|The Electrike Company!]]'', under the ownership of [[Jaco]]. Though Jaco thought that Electrike wasn't that strong and wouldn't pass a test, Ash and friends helped Electrike control its power, resulting in it evolving into a Manectric.

Five Electrike appeared in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', under the ownership of [[Damos]]. In the original timeline set up by the movie, they were used by Damos, who was under {{m|Hypnosis}}, to attack {{OBP|Arceus|M12}} with {{m|Shock Wave}}. When {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} traveled to the past to prevent this, [[Marcus]], the one responsible for hypnotizing Damos, managed to use the Electrike again to attack Arceus.

===Minor appearances===
Electrike debuted in ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''. One was seen with its owner in the opening sequence of the film, while another was a [[wild Pokémon]] that lived in [[Forina]].

An Electrike appeared in the opening sequence of ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]''.

A wild Electrike appeared in ''[[DP088|Camping It Up!]]''

An Electrike appeared in [[SS027]].

An Electrike appeared in ''[[XY048|A Campus Reunion!]]''.

Multiple Electrike appeared in ''[[XY062|The Future Is Now, Thanks to Determination!]]'', where they were among the {{type|Electric}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} being controlled by {{TRT}}.

In ''[[PS204|Plugging Past Electrike I]]'', [[Wattson]] owned an Electrike, which later evolved into a {{TP|Wattson|Manectric}}.

Another Electrike, nicknamed Rikey, under the ownership of Mr. Abby appeared while {{adv|Ruby}} was participating in a Pokémon Contest in ''[[PS200|Tripped Up by Torkoal]]''.

In the {{chap|X & Y}}, Multiple Electrike were among the {{type|electric}} Pokémon that charges the [[Prism Tower]] during a blackout in ''[[PAXY10|Pangoro Poses a Problem]]''.

One of these Electrike that supplied power to the [[Prism Tower]] witnessed {{adv|X}} activate a [[Mega Evolution]] during a battle inside the Tower itself. He then followed {{adv|X}}'s group and evolved into a Manectric shortly before joining X's team, being named [[Élec]].

==Trivia==
* Electrike shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Jolteon}} in the English translation. They are both known as the Lightning Pokémon.

===Origin===
Electrike may be based on a {{wp|maned wolf}} pup and a {{wp|yōkai}} of Japanese lore, the 雷獣 ''{{wp|Raijū}}'', an elemental lightning creature that can take on the shape of various mammals.

====Name origin====
Electrike may be a combination of ''electric'' and ''strike''.

Rakurai literally means 落雷 (bolt of lightning).

'''Togedemaru''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''トゲデマル''' ''Togedemaru'') is a dual-type {{2t|Electric|Steel}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VII]].

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

==Biology==
Togedemaru is a spherical, rodent-like Pokémon. Most of its front is white, while its back is primarily gray. It has black eyes, a short pointed snout with a black nose, and a circular, yellow marking on each cheek. Scattered across its back are 14 fur spikes that appear as yellow and brown triangular markings, which this Pokémon is able to extend straight up when attacking. There is a tail-like needle on the back of its head. The needle is gray with a yellow tip and is shaped like a lightning bolt. Additionally, it has stubby arms and legs.

When Togedemaru gets surprised or agitated, its spikes stand up involuntarily. It uses the needle on top of its head to attract and gather electricity. Groups can be seen gathered with their needles standing upright, waiting to be struck by lightning on stormy days to make up for its somewhat limited electric capacity. Some Trainers use its ability to absorb electricity as strategy in battle. The opponent is coaxed into unleashing an {{type|Electric}} [[move|attack]], and then has that power turned against it. Togedemaru can also curl into a ball to make its fur stand up in a ball of prickles.<ref>http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/togedemaru/</ref>

It is the only Pokémon to learn the move {{m|Zing Zap}}.

==In the anime==

'''Dedenne''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''デデンネ''' ''Dedenne'') is a dual-type {{2t|Electric|Fairy}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VI]].

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

==Biology==
[[File:Pikachu and Dedenne.png|thumb|left|220px|Dedenne using its whiskers to communicate]]
Dedenne is a small, round, orange mouse-like Pokémon, whose whiskers are in shape of antennas, which it uses to communicate with far-off allies. It has orange pouches on its cheeks that charge electricity, and its belly is a pale yellow. It has round black ears with light yellow insides, and a long black tail with a star-like tip. It has an aradicular tooth that can be seen on its upper jaw. Dedenne uses its upper whiskers to survey its surroundings. Its tail can absorb electricity from power plants or house outlets. It can then fire electricity from its lower whiskers.

'''Houndoom''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヘルガー''' ''Hellgar'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dark|Fire}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Houndour}} starting at [[level]] 24. It can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Houndoom''' using the [[Houndoominite]].

==Biology==
Houndoom is a quadruped, canine Pokémon that is mainly black with a long orange snout and an orange underbelly. It has small, red eyes and a black nose. Around its neck is a white band with a small skull-shaped pendant on its throat. There are two white bands on each of its ankles, as well as three rib-like ridges on its back. Houndoom has a long, skinny tail with a triangular tip and three clawed toes on each paw. On top of its head is a pair of long, curved gray horns. These horns are smaller on the female than the male.

In a Houndoom pack, the one with its horns raked sharply towards the back serves a leadership role. Leadership is determined by fights within the pack. Its gut is full of toxins, which are used to create fire. This gives Houndoom's fire a foul odor and the wounds it inflicts will never heal. Houndoom appears near {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|rough terrain areas}}. Its howling induces shivering in other Pokémon, and often sends them scurrying back to their nests.

As Mega Houndoom, the ridges on its back thicken, and it gains additional, bone-like rings around the base of its tail. The rings on its tail have small spikes on top, causing them to resemble vertebrae. The ridge at the base of Mega Houndoom's neck is longer and curves forward towards its shoulders. Instead of a band with a skull pendant, there is a large, toothed structure around its neck. This bone-like formation has two large spikes on either side and three pointed teeth on the bottom. Mega Houndoom's horns now point straight up with a small, outward curve in the middle. The two bands on its hind legs have vanished, and those on its forelegs are broken in the front. Its claws are a dark red due to its ability to generate more heat, which themselves cause pain to Mega Houndoom.<ref>http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/#Houndoom</ref> Finally, the tip of its tail is now split down the middle. When it Mega Evolves, its entire body generates heat.

==Trivia==
* Houndoom has three different sprites in each [[Generation II]] game. It also shares this same trait in [[Generation IV]] games. This makes it one of the few Pokémon with this distinction.

===Origin===
Houndoom may have been based on the {{wp|Cerberus}} of {{wp|Greek mythology|Greek}} and {{wp|Roman mythology}}, or other {{wp|black dog (ghost)|legends}} of {{wp|hellhound}}s. Houndoom is also similar in appearance to {{wp|Doberman Pinscher|Doberman}}s. Its tail resembles that of common depictions of the {{wp|devil}}. Houndoom also seems to bear some resemblances to the extinct {{wp|tasmanian tiger|Tasmanian Tiger/Tasmanian Wolf}}. The Tasmanian Tiger was a hound-like marsupial with a lean body and stripey pattern on its back, much like Houndoom in respects of appearance. Houndoom's shiny coloration could be based on {{wp|Yama}}, the Hindu Lord of the Fallen, who often appears blue and red.

====Name origin====
Houndoom is a combination of ''{{wp|hound}}'' and ''doom''.

Hellgar is a combination of ''{{wp|hell}}'' (alluding to its dark and fiery nature, as a hellhound) and ''gar'' (a sound that dogs make).

'''Houndour''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''デルビル''' ''Delvil'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dark|Fire}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Houndoom}} starting at [[level]] 24.

==Biology==
Houndour is a quadruped, canine Pokémon with short, black fur and a red underbelly and muzzle. Its ears and tail are both short and pointed. Two fangs protrude from its upper jaw, and its triangular nose is black. There are white bands on its ankles, and rib-like ridges on its back. Houndour appears to have a simplistic, stylized skull on its forehead with the eye orbits creating eyebrow patterning above its actual eyes. It also has circular, red paw pads on each of its three-toed paws.

Houndour is an intelligent Pokémon that forms packs to hunt for prey, and shows unparalleled teamwork. As seen [[EP150|in the anime]], it will not abandon a sick pack member. It communicates using various barks and howls. Barks are used to determine the location of a pack member during a hunt, while howls are used as declaration of ownership over a territory. They are known to be loyal and obedient to their trainers. Houndour can typically be found around {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|rough terrain}}.

==In the anime==

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===

This Houndour is later used against [[Lt. Surge]] during his battle against the Masked Man, where its howls summon a herd of wild Houndour to aid it in battle. Although their constant howling prevented Lt. Surge from moving, he is able to have multiple {{p|Electrode}} use {{m|Selfdestruct}} to knock them down, allowing Surge to flee during the confusion.

One of [[Carl]]'s Houndoom was seen as a Houndour in ''[[PS268|The Escape]]'', the round in which {{adv|Green}} and {{adv|Silver}} escaped from [[Pryce]].

==Trivia==
* Despite being a [[Generation II]] Pokémon, it was actually native to [[Kanto]] in {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}. The same is true for {{p|Murkrow}} and {{p|Slugma}}. All three can be obtained in [[Johto]] via the {{safari|Johto}} in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
* The only three games so far in which Houndour can be captured by the player before viewing the end credits are {{Pokémon XD}}, {{game|Platinum}}, and [[Pokémon X and Y|Pokémon X]].
* Houndour is one of fourteen Pokémon that one can collect [[foreign Pokédex entries]] for in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.

===Origin===
Houndour may have been based on the {{wp|Cerberus}} of {{wp|Greek mythology|Greek}} and {{wp|Roman mythology}}, or other legends of {{wp|hellhound}}s. Houndour is also similar in appearance to {{wp|Doberman Pinscher|Dobermann}}s and {{wp|Rottweiler}}s.

====Name origin====
Houndour is a combination of ''{{wp|hound}}'' and ''dour'' (''sullen'' or ''severe'').

Delvil is a corruption of ''{{wp|devil}}''.

==In other languages==
{{Other languages|type=Dark|type2=Fire
|ja=デルビル ''Delvil''|jameaning=Corruption of devil

'''Turtonator''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''バクガメス''' ''Bakugames'') is a dual-type {{2t|Fire|Dragon}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VII]].

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

==Biology==
Turtonator is a bipedal, turtle-like Pokémon with a spiny shell. Its skin is a greenish-gray and only visible on its limbs, tail, head, and neck. On top of its head is an additional shell with many points around the brim. This extra shell has a black center, yellow in the middle, and a red outer rim. Its eyes have black markings around the bottom, and it has a tubular, yellow snout with a single, large nostril. Turtonator has a wide mouth, where the lower lip is marked with a jagged yellow line extending from its nose. On each side of Turtonator's long neck are two short, triangular projections. Its front legs have mitten-like hands, while its hind feet have claw-like red growths around them. Most of its tail is also covered by red plating, which has fin-like projections. The shell that encases its body has a red underside with a star-shaped, yellow-rimmed hole in the center. The back of the shell has a yellow center with several, brownish-black spikes. Four large spines with red bases form a star-shape in the center with four smaller spikes around them.

This Pokémon resides on volcanoes, where it camouflages itself among the rocks and waits for prey. In addition to hunting, Turtonator also feed on sulfur and other volcanic materials. This diet rich in explosive material has contributed to a layer of explosive material in its shell. When prey steps onto its shell, it strikes itself with its own tail to cause an explosion. The explosion is ignited by sparks from the spikes on its shell, and released through the hole on its chest. This orifice also acts as Turtonator's weak point.<ref>http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/turtonator/</ref>

Turtonator is the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Shell Trap}}.

'''Torkoal''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''コータス''' ''Cotoise'') is a {{type|Fire}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

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

==Biology==
Torkoal is a tortoise-like, quadruped Pokémon. It has a large black rock-like shell with holes that glow with a red warmth. Its skin is reddish brown with gray-black bands on its legs and neck. It has a long neck and its eyes seem permanently closed. Torkoal lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountains,}} where it looks for large deposits of coal. It uses the coal to fill the hollow spaces in its shell, and then burns it for energy.

Because coal is Torkoal's source of energy, it becomes immobile once it runs out of coal to burn. A Torkoal is healthy if the smoke spouting from its shell has tremendous velocity. When it blows out smoke from its nostrils and the top of its back, it sounds like a locomotive horn. It blows out black smoke before fleeing and while being attacked.

==In the anime==

Flannery's Torkoal reappeared in flashbacks in ''[[AG058|All Torkoal, No Play]]'' and ''[[AG075|Whiscash and Ash]]''.

===Minor appearances===

'''Komala''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ネッコアラ''' ''Nekkoara'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VII]].

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

==Biology==
Komala is a gray Pokémon similar to a {{wp|koala}}. It has large, rounded ears with light orange fur on the inside. Its large, ovoid black nose extends up between its fluffy white eyebrows, and there are additional white puffs of fur on each cheek. There is a small ruff of longer, gray fur around its neck. Each hand is black with five short fingers, and it has three black claws and a black paw pad on each foot. Its underbelly is white, as is its short fluffy tail. It is usually seen holding a short wooden log.

This Pokémon stays asleep from birth to death, staying this way because of its diet containing leaves with sedative properties. While its expression sometimes changes as if it is aware of its surroundings, this appears to be a result of its dreams instead. It is able to eat, travel, and even battle without waking. If the log pillow it clings to is removed, it will be unable to sleep well and thrash wildly. However, it will sometimes cling to the arm of a Trainer it trusts. During a deep sleep, it stops moving altogether. According to ancient people, if a small amount of the saliva created when it eats leaves is watered down and ingested, one will be able to sleep well.<ref>http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/komala/</ref>

'''Pangoro''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ゴロンダ''' ''Goronda'') is a dual-type {{2t|Fighting|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VI]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Pancham}} starting at [[level]] 32, if the {{player}} has a {{type|Dark}} Pokémon in their party.

==Biology==
Pangoro is a large bipedal Pokémon, resembling a humanoid panda bear. It has a stocky build with a round belly, short legs and long arms with large paws, which are often balled into fists. Its head and belly are covered in thick white fur, while its lower body, chest, arms, and back are covered in equally thick but dark grey fur. A long fringe of this dark grey fur hangs down behind its back that, in combination with the rest of the dark-furred pattern, gives the impression that Pangoro is wearing a longcoat and trousers. Pangoro's three-fingered paws have shorter fur a darker shade of grey than the overcoat and are tipped with vicious black claws. Its face tapers down to a snout and its white color contrasts with its black ears and nose as well as the two semi-circles of black fur under its brow that render Pangoro's eyes indistinguishable. Pangoro likes to carry a thin leaved shoot in its mouth, which has prominent lower fangs.

Despite its cantankerous demeanor, Pangoro is not one to tolerate those who pick on the weak. With arms powerful enough to snap a telephone pole, it charges into battle like a berserker, heedless of any damage it might suffer as it bashes its opponents. It can use the leaf in its mouth to sense the movements of those around it.

==In the anime==

==Trivia==
* Pangoro was designed by [[Hitoshi Ariga]].<ref>[http://hitoshiariga.deviantart.com/art/Pocket-Monsters-XY-413536751 Pocket Monsters XY by HitoshiAriga on deviantART]</ref> However, he did not design its {{p|Pancham|pre-evolution}}; [[Megumi Mizutani]] did.

===Origin===
Pangoro is based on a {{wp|giant panda}}. Considering how its pre-evolution needs to be around Dark-type Pokémon as a prerequisite for its evolution, its hot-blooded, belligerent, yet virtuous attitude, and features such as a coat-like cape and chewing stick, Pangoro also appears to draw inspiration from {{wp|Banchō (position)#Juvenile delinquency|banchō}}, Japanese juvenile-delinquent leaders. The method of evolution may imply that the pure Fighting-type Pancham acquired its {{t|Dark}} type after evolution due to being led astray by a "bad influence". Its {{Shiny}} coloration could be a reference to the {{wp|Qinling panda}}, whose coloring tends to be more brown than black.

====Name origin====
Pangoro and Goronda may be a combination of ごろつき ''gorotsuki'' (rogue), ごろごろ ''gorogoro'' (rumbling sound), and ''panda''.

'''Pancham''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヤンチャム''' ''Yancham'') is a {{type|Fighting}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VI]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Pangoro}} starting at [[Level|level]] 32 while the {{player}} has a {{type|Dark}} Pokémon in their party.

==Biology==
Pancham is a mammalian, bipedal Pokémon that resembles a young panda. Its head and short, puffy tail are white. There are tufts of fur on top of its head and on its cheeks. There are black circles around its eyes, and the ears are also black. The upper body and hind feet are black, while the lower body is a dark gray. It has dark brown eyes with no visible irises. There are small, dark brown circular pads on the soles of its three-toed feet. It carries a small, green leaf in its mouth. Pancham tries to make itself serious towards its foes, but its glare is not so intimidating. If patted on the head, it can't help grinning.

==Trivia==
* Pancham is one of only two Pokémon whose ability to evolve depends on having another Pokémon in the party. (The other is {{p|Mantyke}}, who can only evolve when a {{p|Remoraid}} is present in the party.) Pancham can evolve if a non-Dark-type Pokémon evolves into a Dark-type Pokémon (such as {{p|Eevee}} to {{p|Umbreon}}), but only if it is in a party position before Pancham (i.e. Pancham evolves last). Pokémon that can become Dark-type only while in battle (due to [[Mega Evolution]], or a type-changing move or Ability) cannot cause Pancham to evolve.
* Pancham shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Monferno}}. They are both known as the Playful Pokémon.

===Origin===
Pancham is based on a {{wp|giant panda}} cub. Its {{Shiny}} coloration could be a reference to the {{wp|Qinling panda}}, whose coloring tends to be more brown than black.

====Name origin====
Pancham may be a combination of ''panda'', ''punch'' and ''champion''.

Yancham may come from やんちゃ ''yancha'' (naughty) and ''champion''.

'''Porygon-Z''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ポリゴンZ''' ''PorygonZ'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IV]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Porygon2}} when [[trade]]d holding a [[Dubious Disc]]. It is the final form of {{p|Porygon}}.

==Biology==
Although technically a virtual, manmade Pokémon, Porygon-Z does have a physical body. Its head is fuchsia and ovoid in shape with a short, blunt antenna protruding upwards and a blue bill similar to that of a duck. Its eyes are yellow and have black rings, similar to a bulls-eye. The head is completely detached from the body and floats slightly above it. Its smooth, ovoid body is fuchsia with a blue ring connecting its arms. Two arms are loosely connected to its upper body and other than their blue color, have no features. The tail is also blue and featureless, but slightly resembles a paddle.

Porygon-Z was given additional software in order to increase its abilities. The initial idea was to give it the ability to travel through alien dimensions, though it did not work as planned. Instead, the Pokémon began acting erratically. This has been attributed to the incompetence of the engineer who faultily updated its programming. Porygon-Z and its pre-evolutions are the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that can learn {{m|Conversion}} and {{m|Conversion 2}}.

==In the anime==
[[File:PorygonZ anime.png|thumb|left|230px|Porygon-Z in "World of Pokémon"]]
Porygon-Z's only appearance in the anime was a cameo in the "World of Pokémon" opening of ''[[M15|Kyurem VS. The Sword of Justice]]'', in which every Pokémon from the first five [[generation]]s (apart from {{p|Genesect}}) appeared. As was the case with {{p|Porygon2}}, it is currently believed that Porygon-Z will not properly appear and will not be mentioned in the anime as a result of the [[EP038]] incident.

==In the manga==
[[File:Io Porygon-Z.png|thumb|left|100px|Porygon-Z in [[Phantom Thief Pokémon 7|Pokémon 7]]]]
===In the Phantom Thief Pokémon 7 manga===
[[Io]] has a Porygon-Z which is her main battler and only known Pokémon. She first used it to attack the Galactic Number 2.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
A Trainer's Porygon-Z appeared in ''[[PS418|Deprogramming Porygon-Z]]'' where it battled with [[Platinum's Empoleon]].

==In the TCG==

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS]]===
Porygon-Z appears as a trophy.
====Trophy information====
'''NA:''' ''Porygon is an artificial Pokémon created by humans. Given an Up-Grade, it becomes Porygon2. Then another mod turns it into Porygon-Z. You'd think two upgrades would make Porygon-Z the perfect Pokémon, but actually, the Dubious Disc used to make Porygon2 evolve seems to have introduced some bugs. Maybe a patch is in the works?''

==Trivia==
* Porygon-Z is the only Pokémon whose Japanese name is spelled with a character from a foreign alphabet.
* Porygon-Z weighs exactly as much as {{ga|Dawn}}. It shares this similarity with {{p|Weavile}} and [[Regional variant|Alolan]] {{p|Marowak}}.
* The [[Dubious Disc]]'s name implies that Porygon-Z, unlike its {{p|Porygon2|pre-evolution}}, was not authorized by [[Silph Co.]]
* Porygon-Z's pre-evolutions have their own [[signature move|signature]] Conversion move, but no new Conversion-style move was made for Porygon-Z.
* Since no leveling up is required to evolve either Porygon or Porygon2, Porygon-Z is the only Pokémon to be evolved twice that can still be level 1.
* Porygon-Z is the only Pokémon that evolves from a Pokémon that evolves via [[trade|trading]] while [[held item|holding an item]].
* Porygon-Z is tied with {{p|Drampa}} and {{me|Pidgeot}} for the highest base {{stat|Special Attack}} stat of all {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
Like Porygon and Porygon2, it is based on a bird made with 3D computer graphics. Its appearance with respect to Porygon2, as well as its unprogrammed behaviors, suggest that it may be based on the concept of a computer virus having infected Porygon2, or maybe a reference to copyrighted software usually being patched by users to use all the features, but often causing bugs in the program.

====Name origin====
Porygon-Z is a combination of ''{{wp|polygon}}'' and ''Z''. It may also reflect the stereotype that Japanese people pronounce their 'L' sounds as 'R' sounds, Porygon being a mispronunciation of polygon. ''Z'' may refer to the {{wp|Z axis}} in {{wp|Three-dimensional space|3D}} coordination systems or that Porygon-Z is the last of its evolutionary line (since the letter Z is last in the {{wp|Latin alphabet}}). Alternatively, ''Z'' may be a corruption of ''2'' (as in {{p|Porygon2}}).

'''Porygon2''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ポリゴン２''' ''Porygon2'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Porygon}} when [[trade]]d holding an [[Up-Grade]] and evolves into {{p|Porygon-Z}} when traded holding a [[Dubious Disc]].

==Biology==
Porygon2 is a rounded, pink, digital Pokémon that shows similarities to a {{wp|drinking bird}}. It has a relatively flat bill and large, round eyes. Its legs are simple ovoid growths along its sides, and its tail widens towards the middle. Its bill, legs, tail, and underside are blue.

It was upgraded to work in space, although its inability to fly limits this ability. It is artificially intelligent, and is capable of learning new behaviors on its own, including information it does not need to know. As a result, it will sometimes perform motions or abilities that are not in its programming. It is generally found in computers or in labs and {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|other buildings}} working with people. It can survive in a space vacuum, though cannot move very well in zero-gravity. Porygon2 and its evolutionary family, {{p|Porygon}} and {{p|Porygon-Z}}, are the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that learn {{m|Conversion}} and {{m|Conversion 2}}.

==In the anime==
[[File:Porygon2 M15.png|200px|thumb|left|Porygon2 in "World of Pokemon"]]
Porygon2 appeared in the English dub as stockart in the [[Pokérap GS|Johto Pokérap]]. Porygon2's second appearance in the anime has been a cameo in the "World of Pokémon" opening of [[M15|''Kyurem VS. The Sword of Justice'']], in which every Pokémon from the first five [[generation]]s (apart from {{p|Genesect}}) appeared. Due to [[EP038|the EP038 incident]], Porygon2 has not appeared in an episode of the anime, and it is the only [[Generation II]] Pokémon not to appear. Along with its evolved form, {{p|Porygon-Z}}, it is also the only Pokémon from prior to [[Generation VII]] that is neither Legendary nor Mythical to not appear in an episode of the anime.

==In the manga==
[[File:Blue Porygon2.png|thumb|left|150px|Porygon2 in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Blue's Porygon2}}
Porygon2 first appeared in ''[[PS115|Forretress of Solitude]]'' under the ownership of the [[Pokémon Association]] used to test Red to become Viridian City's Gym Leader.

{{adv|Blue}} bought a {{p|Porygon}} in [[Celadon City]], which was quite disobedient to its new Trainer, but became an integral part of his team later. Prior to ''[[PS160|Playful Porygon2]]'', it evolved into Porygon2 and battled with [[Silver's Weavile|Silver's Sneasel]]. It again appeared in the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}}, where its ability to integrate itself into any electronic network proved handy in freeing {{adv|Professor Oak}} and {{adv|Green}}'s parents.

In ''[[PS446|Weavile Wobbles But It Won't Fall Down]]'', a Trainer at the [[Johto Safari Zone|Safari Zone]] owns one.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Porygon2 (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
[[File:Porygon2 Trophy Melee.png|150px|thumb|Porygon2 in Melee]]
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
When released from a Poké Ball, Porygon2 will immediately use a powerful {{m|Tackle}} attack that sends opponents flying. The attack cannot be escaped due to the speed in which it happens but Porygon2 is harmless once the attack has finished.

====Trophy information====
''Representing the next step in technological progress, this Virtual Pokémon is a higher-powered version of the man-made Pokémon, Porygon. Compared to the sharp edges of its relative, Porygon2's body is extremely smooth and rounded. In battle, it utilizes a special move called {{m|Conversion 2}} to alter its type.''

==Trivia==
* Porygon2 is the only Pokémon with a numeral in its name.
** In the [[Generation II]] games, it is impossible to return a nicknamed Porygon2 to its species name, because the character 2 is not available as a character for nicknames.
* Porygon2 is the only non-fully [[Evolution|evolved]] Pokémon that:
** Has evolved by trading.
** Was introduced after the generation of its pre-evolution.

===Origin===
Like Porygon, it is based on a bird (possibly an {{wp|Orizuru|origami crane}}) made with more advanced 3D computer graphics than the first Porygon. The head looks like a {{wp|duck}}. It also resembles a {{wp|drinking bird}}, especially in the 3D games, where it makes the same movement as one. The change in form by evolution from Porygon to Porygon2 represents the concept of {{wp|Subdivision surface|subdivision}} in 3D computer graphics.

====Name origin====
Porygon2 is a combination of ''{{wp|polygon}}'' and ''2''. It may also reflect the stereotype that Japanese people pronounce their 'L' sounds as 'R' sounds, Porygon being a mispronunciation of polygon. ''2'' may be a reference to {{wp|software versioning}}, as it is the second "stable release"—an upgraded version—of {{p|Porygon}}.

'''Porygon''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ポリゴン''' ''Porygon'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Porygon2}} when [[trade]]d holding an [[Up-Grade]], which evolves into {{p|Porygon-Z}} when traded holding a [[Dubious Disc]].

==Biology==
[[File:Porygon Conversion.png|thumb|left|200px|Porygon changing its appearance using {{m|Conversion}}]]
Porygon is a Pokémon made completely out of programming code. It has a pink polyhedral body with a blue stomach, blue triangular prism feet, and a blue rectangular prism tail. It has a pink, polyhedral head that ends in a blue beak and has hexagonal eyes. Built into this code is [[Silph Co.]] copy protection [[wp: Digital Rights Management|DRM]], preventing duplication through electronic means. Due to its man-made origins, Porygon does not need to breathe or eat, though it can still accept food if given. It has the ability to convert its body into digital data, allowing it to travel through cyberspace. It was created 20 years ago using the latest technology of its time, so many of its parts have since become obsolete.

Porygon has two [[signature moves]], {{m|Conversion}} and {{m|Conversion 2}}. It can use Conversion to change its appearance to mimic another Pokémon's. Porygon has also [[Pokémon Snap|demonstrated the ability]] to change color for camouflage. Because it is man-made, it is generally found in computers or in labs and other {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|buildings}} where people work. In 3D games, such as {{g|Stadium}}, it can detach its limbs and head from its torso.

==In the anime==

[[File:Porygon Aim to Be a Pokémon Master.png|thumb|left|220px|Porygon in [[Aim to Be a Pokémon Master]]]]
===Major appearances===
Porygon made its only major anime appearance in [[EP038]], where two specimens created by [[Dr. Akihabara]] appeared, [[List of Pokémon temporarily owned by the Team Rocket trio#Porygon Zero|one]] of which was stolen by {{TRT}}, the other borrowed by {{Ash}}. Both were left behind at Dr. Akihabara's house at the end of the episode.

This episode caused more than 600 children in Japan to be transferred to hospitals by ambulance because of seizure-like symptoms they reported, due to a flashing strobe effect, and was therefore banned and never aired again anywhere in the world. Since then, Porygon and its evolutions have never played a main role in another episode.

===Minor appearances===
A Porygon made its English dub debut in a brief appearance during a graphic display in ''[[EP047|A Chansey Operation]]'', as well as ''[[EP062|Clefairy Tales]]'' and ''[[EP069|Lights, Camera, Quack-tion]]''.

A Porygon made a cameo during the "World of Pokémon" opening narration of the [[M04|fourth]] and [[M05|fifth]] movies, shown floating behind a wire fence in a city. It also appeared in a shot in a "World of Pokémon" opening at the beginning of the clip show OVA ''[[The Journey to be a Pokémon Master Begins!!]]'', where it was floating above a fence in a very similar location.

It most recently appeared alongside its evolutions and all pre-Generation VI Pokémon besides {{p|Genesect}} in the opening sequence of the [[M15|fifteenth movie]].

==In the manga==
[[File:Blue Porygon Conversion.png|200px|thumb|Porygon in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Blue's Porygon}}
{{adv|Blue}} obtains a Porygon during his time in [[Celadon City]] in ''[[PS018|A Tale of Ninetales]]'', and it has since then become a core member of his team. Prior to {{PAV|13}}, it has since evolved into {{p|Porygon2}}.

Another Porygon appeared in [[PASM05]] under the ownership of [[Gladion]]. It battled in the Iki Town festival tournament and won against [[Hau]]'s {{p|Pichu}}.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
Multiple Porygon appeared in ''[[PM011|Finish Off Team Rocket!!]]''.

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros.]]/[[Super Smash Bros. Melee|Melee]]===
Porygon pops out of a door on top of the [[Silph Co.]] building in the [[Saffron City (stage)|Saffron City stage]]. It damages players that come into contact with it.

Porygon's only appearance in Melee is that of a Poké Float. When the fighting is on {{p|Slowpoke}}'s tail, three will travel across the top of the screen. However, they move too quickly to land on and so are little more than decoration in practice.

===NPC appearances===
* {{g|Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky}}: [[In the Future of Darkness]], Porygon live past Spacial Cliffs. {{mdc|Dusknoir|2}} goes to Spacial Cliffs to see them. Two Porygon appear at the end of the dungeon. They are allies of [[Primal Dialga]], and they transmit {{mdc|Grovyle|2}} and Dusknoir to Frozen Island.

==Trivia==
* Porygon is the only Pokémon that evolves by trade twice: once holding the [[Up-Grade]] into {{p|Porygon2}}, and a second time (as Porygon2) into {{p|Porygon-Z}} when holding a [[Dubious Disc]]. It is also the only Pokémon in a [[:Category:Pokémon that are part of a three-stage evolutionary line|three-stage evolutionary line]] that does not require leveling up to trigger any of its evolutions (i.e. it is possible to acquire a Porygon-Z at Lv.1).
* Porygon's evolutionary line is the only three-stage evolutionary line whose members can all learn both {{m|Giga Impact}} and {{m|Hyper Beam}}, as all three were considered fully-evolved during their respective debut generations.

===Origin===
It may be based on the concept of a bird made with primitive 3D graphics software. It may also draw inspiration from an {{wp|Orizuru|origami crane}}.

====Name origin====
Porygon is a corruption of ''{{wp|polygon}}''.

'''Metagross''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''メタグロス''' ''Metagross'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Psychic}} [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Metang}} starting at [[level]] 45. It is the final form of {{p|Beldum}}. It can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] into '''Mega Metagross''' using the [[Metagrossite]].

==Biology==
Metagross is a massive, robotic Pokémon with a turquoise, disc-shaped body and four legs. The main body appears to serve as both head and body, and this Pokémon's overall construction gives it the appearance of a mechanized arachnid. It uses its heavy body to pin down its prey before consuming them with its large mouth. A large, metallic cross is situated in the center of its face. On either side of the cross, a red eye peers out from a space in Metagross's metallic armor. Its four legs are joined to the main body by ball-and-socket joints. While the upper portion of the legs is relatively thin, they are considerably thicker below the knee. Each leg has three short claws on the end and a flat, blunt protrusion extending over the knee. The legs can be tucked in, allowing Metagross to float in the air.

As Mega Metagross, it constantly floats, and its legs become arms. It also gains four legs on the back of its head. The cross on its face turns pale gold, and it gains two small holes and a spike immediately below the cross, giving the impression of a goatee. Its multiple brains process information simultaneously, enabling it to calmly assess the tide of a battle and defeat its opponent with accuracy. Mega Metagross also uses the psychic power inside its body to launch powerful attacks. Its claws are hard as steel and can easily smash even large chunks of rocks.

Metagross is the result of two {{p|Metang}} fusing together. This gives Metagross four brains in total, all connected by a complex network of neurons. Because of these complex connections and the number of brains, this Pokémon is capable of performing complex calculations and is more intelligent than a supercomputer. It uses its intelligence to analyze its opponents during battle. This Pokémon can be found on {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|rough terrains}}. Mega Metagross achieves its form by linking up a Metagross, a Metang, and two {{p|Beldum}} together. During [[Mega Evolution]], Metagross becomes a ruthless Pokémon that will use any means to win in battle, being downright cruel at some points. If it knows it cannot win, Mega Metagross digs its claws into opponent and prepares to explode.

It first appeared on a display screen, but together with his {{TP|Alain|Charizard}}, it had apparently knocked out the majority of the opponent's team.

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
[[File:Metagross SSBB.png|220px|thumb|Metagross in Super Smash Bros Brawl]]
Upon its release from its [[Poké Ball]], it will stay in one place and repeatedly use {{m|Earthquake}}. Anyone caught underneath the Pokémon will be buried into the ground and thus unable to move for a few moments, until Metagross uses its attack and all the hit characters are blasted upwards.

Metagross was featured as one of the Pokémon released from a Poké Ball in the demo of [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]] at Jumpfesta; however, it hovered above the stage before attacking, unlike in the actual game.

====Trophy information====
''"An Iron Leg Pokémon. When two Beldum combine, they evolve into Metang. In the same way, Metagross is the result of two Metang combining. It's said to have the intelligence to match a supercomputer. Though it weighs 1,212.5 pounds, it is somehow able to fold up its legs and float."''

===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]===
[[File:Metagross SSB4.png|thumb|240px|Metagross in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS.]]
Metagross reappears as a Poké Ball summon in these games, working the same as in ''Brawl''.

====Trophy information====
'''NA''': ''A hulking Steel/Psychic Pokémon, Metagross weighs in at around 1,212.5 lb. Even Snorlax isn't that heavy! It uses Earthquake by stomping its powerful legs on the ground, sending nearby fighters flying and burying those who come too close. You'll be safe in the air, so use careful timing to stay that way. ''

'''PAL''': ''A Steel- and Psychic-type Pokémon known as the Iron Leg Pokémon. At 550kg in weight, it's heavier than your average Snorlax. When its Earthquake hits, you'd better hope your far away (or at least in mid-air), because the tremors can launch anybody on the ground. And watch out for its legs! They can stomp you right into the ground! ''

==Trivia==
* Due to the way damage is calculated for {{m|Grass Knot}} and {{m|Low Kick}}, Metagross will take the same amount of damage from these moves with or without its Hidden Ability, {{a|Light Metal}}.
* Mega Metagross has the highest base stat total of all Steel-type Pokémon.
* Metagross's number in the [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number (Generation III)|Hoenn Pokédex]] in Generation III and the [[List of Pokémon by Fiore Browser number|Fiore Browser]] are the same: 192.
* Despite being a genderless species, Metagross is referred to as a male in [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]].

===Origin===
Metagross is similar to a {{wp|robot}}. It also appears to be based on a {{wp|supercomputer}}, given its mechanical structure and sheer intelligence, and a spider. It is also reminiscent of a UFO and a {{wp|Lander (spacecraft)|lander}}.

====Name origin====
Metagross may be a combination of ''metal'' and ''cross'' (referring to its facial feature), ''{{wp|gross (unit)|gross}}'' (referring to its weight of 1212 lbs., as a gross is 12×12), or groß ''gross'' (German for ''large'').

'''Metang''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''メタング''' ''Metang'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Beldum}} starting at [[level]] 20 and evolves into {{p|Metagross}} starting at level 45.

==Biology==
Metang is a robotic Pokémon with teal, metallic skin. It has a disc-shaped body with a pair of flat, gray spikes on either side toward the rear. A jet cannot scratch Metang due to its strong body. There is a gray spike in the middle of its face, similar to a nose. A pair of red eyes reside in two holes in its metallic skin. While it appears to lack legs, it has a pair of thick arms with three claws on the ends. The arms are considerably thicker below the elbow and have a flat, blunt protrusion extending over the joint. It is able to rotate its arms backwards in order to travel at speeds over 60 mph (100 km/h), and its claws are able to rip through steel.

Metang is formed when two {{p|Beldum}} fuse together. A magnetic nervous system joins the brains of these two Pokémon. This linkage allows Metang to generate a strong, psychokinetic power, though it does not increase its intellect. This Pokémon’s high intelligence and strong magnetic field are other sources of powerful psychic energy. In addition to generating psychic power, its magnetism allows Metang to hover in midair. This Pokémon lives on {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|rough terrains}}. It pursues {{p|Nosepass}}, loving its magnetic minerals.

==In the anime==
===Major appearances===
[[File:Alain Metang.png|250px|thumb|left|Metang in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====[[Morrison's Metang]]====
Metang debuted in ''[[AG126|Saved by the Beldum]]'', after [[Morrison]]'s {{p|Beldum}} evolved whilst battling against {{OBP|Jump|AG126}}'s {{p|Electabuzz}}.

====Other====
A Metang appeared in ''[[DP057|Bibarel Gnaws Best!]]'', under the ownership of the [[head engineer]]. It was used to attack a {{p|Bibarel}} alongside an {{p|Aggron}} and {{p|Magmar}}, but Bibarel dodged its attack. It was eventually defeated by a combination of [[Ash's Chimchar]]'s {{m|Flamethrower}}, and [[Ash's Turtwig]]'s and [[Brock's Sudowoodo]]'s {{m|Razor Leaf}} attacks (the latter used the move via {{m|Mimic}}).

A wild Metang appeared in ''[[DP110|Steeling Peace of Mind!]]''. It was among the {{type|Steel}} Pokémon on [[Iron Island]].

A Metang appeared in ''[[XY116|The Synchronicity Test!]]'', under the ownership of [[Alain]]. Alain used it in a battle against [[Ash's Noivern]] and was able to defeat it. In ''[[XY127|Analysis Versus Passion!]]'', it was revealed that Metang had evolved into Metagross.

{{an|Sophocles}} used a Metang as a [[Poké Ride|Ride Pokémon]] in [[SM061]].

===Minor appearances===
Multiple Metang appeared in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]'', under the ownership of [[J's henchmen]].

A Metang appeared in ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]'' alongside a {{p|Beldum}} and {{p|Metagross}}, all under the ownership of a [[Pokémon Baccer World Cup]] participant.

==Trivia==
* Although it is said that Metang is made up of two Beldum, there is no visible evidence of this. In the only anime episode to date showing a Beldum evolution, ''[[AG126|Saved by the Beldum]]'', when [[Morrison]]'s Beldum evolves into Metang, it "creates" another Beldum and newly developed main body to evolve, instead of fusing with another Beldum. Likewise, if a Metang evolution is shown, it is highly unlikely it would involve two Metang evolving together. This is similar to the games.
* Metang's number in the [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number (Generation III)|Hoenn Pokédex]] in Generation III and the [[List of Pokémon by Fiore Browser number|Fiore Browser]] are the same: 191.
* Though Metang appears to be floating in both the games and anime, it cannot have the ability {{a|Levitate}}.

===Origin===
Metang is made of two Beldum merged. It is visually similar to both {{wp|flying saucer}}s and {{wp|crab}}s.

====Name origin====
Metang may be a combination of ''metal'' and ''tang'' (onomatopoeic sound of metal being struck). ''Metang'' is also an anagram of ''{{wp|magnet}}''. It may also be a combination of ''metal'' and ''étang'' (French for the color ''pond blue'').

'''Beldum''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ダンバル''' ''Dumbber'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Metang}} starting at [[level]] 20, which evolves into {{p|Metagross}} starting at level 45.

==Biology==
Beldum is a robotic Pokémon that has a long body with a set of claws sticking out of its rear end. It has one large, red eye in the center of its nearly spherical head, which is set into a ball-and-socket joint at its front end. A short crest projects from its body and extends over its head.

Even though Beldum is a mechanical creature, it still has emotions, the need to eat, and a way of reproducing. Beldum's body lacks blood, and is instead made of cells that are all magnets. It uses magnetism to move, communicate, and control its attacks. Beldum sometimes gathers in swarms, communicating with each other telepathically and magnetically and moving in sync. Beldum is scarce in the wild, but it does tend to inhabit areas with {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|rugged terrain}}. It anchors itself to a cliff using its hooks when it sleeps.

==In the anime==

* Beldum's evolutionary family evolves into their next-stage forms the earliest of all the [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]]—Beldum into {{p|Metang}} at level 20, and {{p|Metang}} into {{p|Metagross}} at level 45.
* Beldum is the only member of a pseudo-legendary Pokémon evolutionary line that only learns one move by level up.

'''Minior''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''メテノ''' ''Meteno'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Flying}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VII]].

While it is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon, Minior can change {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Minior|forms}} during battle, depending on its [[Ability]] and current {{stat|Hit Points|HP}}.

==Biology==
Minior is a spherical Pokémon with two forms: one form with a rocky outer coating, and the other with its core exposed.

In its shielded form, Minior resembles a modestly sized rock. Its rocky exterior is formed by four large plates separated by two large cracks. The cracks encircle its body both horizontally and vertically. Five white spikes extend just above the rocky surface, giving it a star-shape. Two large, black spots on its front resemble eyes, and there is a third spot in the center of its back. Rings of dark brown triangles surround the holes its spikes protrude from and the spot on its back, pointing outward. One of the triangles surround the spot on its back is replaced with a small, brown dot. The eyespots have a half-ring of triangles resembling eyelashes. One eye has a small, brown dot in the corner. Even while apparently at rest, Minior tends to spin slowly in place.

In its core form, Minior loses its rocky shell and its body is exposed. The core is a bright, pastel color. Depending on the color of debris and food it absorbed and ate while in the stratosphere, Minior's core can be Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, or Violet. A handful of darker triangles are also visible on its body in random places. Minior's eyes and mouth are formed from energy that floats in front of its body like a two-dimensional mask. The eyes are two large swirls and the mouth a smaller line. Its face tends to stay level regardless of how Minior spins the rest of its body.

Minior forms in the {{wp|stratosphere}} from an aggregation of mutated nanoparticles, where it absorbs particulate matter from which it builds its core and shell. Eventually, this process makes it too heavy and it falls towards the surface of the planet. When its shell breaks from landing, Minior becomes lighter and capable of attacking quickly, but it cannot survive for long with its core exposed. The cute, pastel coloring of Minior's core form often inspires designers to use it as a motif for clothing and accessories.<ref>http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/minior/</ref> While in the ozone layer, it serves as food to stronger Pokémon. Places where Minior fall are few, [[Alola]] being one of them.

==Trivia==
* Core Form Minior is the [[List of Pokémon by weight|lightest]] {{type|Rock}} Pokémon.
* Minior was designed by [[Hitoshi Ariga]].
* Meteor Form Minior, {{p|Sandshrew|Alolan Sandshrew}}, {{p|Clefable}}, {{p|Latias}}, {{p|Gurdurr}}, {{p|Greninja}}, and Ash-Greninja are all the same weight as {{ga|Ethan}}.
* Minior is the only Pokémon whose forms all share the exact same Shiny appearance.
* The Pokédex groups Minior under more [[List of Pokémon by color|colors]] than any other Pokémon, with a total of 6.

===Origin===
Minior is likely based on a {{wp|meteor}}, which are colloquially known as "falling stars" or "{{wp|shooting stars}}". The colors of its Core Form roughly correspond with those of a classic {{wp|rainbow}}, or {{wp|Roy G. Biv}}. Additionally, Minior's design may take inspiration from the Japanese star-shaped candy {{wp|konpeitō}}.

====Name origin====
Minior is likely derived from ''meteor'', and may involve any mixture of the words ''mini'', ''minor'', ''junior'', ''armor'', and ''core''.

Meteno may be a combination of ''meteor'' and ''nano''.

'''Beheeyem''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''オーベム''' ''Ohbem'') is a {{type|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Elgyem}} starting at [[level]] 42.

==Biology==
Beheeyem is a brown [[extraterrestrial Pokémon]] with an oblong head that features depressions on both sides. It has black, symmetrical lines going down the front of its head. Under the rim of its head, there lay two green eyes with small black pupils. It has a lighter brown "collar" and 4 dots on its chest of the same color. Beheeyem's arms have three finger-like digits: one red, one green, and one yellow. It has a rim underneath its main body, under which are two small legs. It communicates by flashing its multi-colored fingers. Beheeyem can manipulate the memories of its opponents, being able to erase or even rewrite them.

==In the anime==
[[File:Capacia Island Beheeyem.png|thumb|left|220px|Beheeyem in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
===Major appearances===
Beheeyem debuted in ''[[BW045|Beheeyem, Duosion, and the Dream Thief!]]'', under the ownership of [[Leon]], a.k.a. the "Dream Thief". Leon's Beheeyem had befriended {{MTR}} so that Leon could lure {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} into a trap. It later kidnapped {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{TP|Iris|Axew}}, and Meowth while they were sleeping, replacing them with dolls. It also stole Ash, {{an|Iris}}, and {{an|Cilan}}'s on hand Pokémon while they slept.

Multiple Beheeyem appeared in ''[[BW133|Capacia Island UFO!]],'' searching for a {{wp|Koban (coin)|koban}} that fell in [[Capacia Island]] when their flying saucer crashed there. They had hypnotized the town's population to help them in their search.

==Trivia==

===Origin===
Beheeyem is based on {{wp|grey alien|greys}}, one of the more popular kinds of {{wp|extraterrestrial life|alien}}. Judging from {{p|Elgyem}}'s Pokédex entry, it and its evolution may also be based on the {{wp|Area 51}} {{wp|Area 51#UFO and other conspiracy theories concerning Area 51|alien conspiracies}} or the {{wp|Roswell UFO incident|Roswell incident}}. Additionally, Beheeyem's design resembles a person wearing a hat and trenchcoat and is likely based on stereotypical spies, shady figures, {{wp|Men in Black |"Men in Black"}}, or government agents in connection with alien sightings. The colored dots on its hands resemble the colorful faces of the invaders in the {{wp|The War of the Worlds (1953 film)|1953 ''War of the Worlds'' film}}; the aliens in the film had green, blue and red dots just like Beheeyem's {{Shiny}} coloration. Considering its species names, physical appearance, and powers, it may also be based on a brain.

====Name origin====
Beheeyem is a corruption of the abbreviation ''{{wp|Bug-eyed monster|BEM}}'', an old-fashioned term used to refer to extraterrestrials.

Ohbem may be a combination of ''orb'' and ''{{wp|Bug-eyed monster|BEM}}'' (pronounced as a single word in Japanese). ''Oh'' may also refer to 大 ''ō'' (large) and ''bem'' may also refer to ''beam'' (referencing {{wp|tractor beam}}s from {{wp|UFOs}}).

'''Elgyem''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''リグレー''' ''Ligray'') is a {{type|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Beheeyem}} starting at [[level]] 42.

==Biology==
Elgyem is a light blue [[extraterrestrial Pokémon]] with an oblong head with depressions on either side. It has black, symmetrical lines going down the front of its head. On the front of its head are shiny, green button-like eyes. Its hands have three finger-like digits: one red, one green, and one yellow. It has short, stubby legs and a small tail. Elgyem controls incredible psychic power, which it uses to squeeze its opponent’s brains, causing them headaches. Its origin is said to be linked with a UFO crash site that appeared 50 years ago.

Overall, Elgyem has quite the welcoming and informative behavior. It is willing to help in stressful and otherwise difficult situations. However, Elgyem can become fully involved in something it feels to be important and protect that with its life.

It was later kidnapped by {{TRT}}, but Ash, {{an|Iris}}, and {{an|Cilan}} came to its rescue and reunited it with Professor Icarus.

An Elgyem appeared in ''[[BW069|Climbing the Tower of Success!]]'', under the ownership of [[Ricky]]. Ricky used Elgyem's {{m|Psychic}} powers came in handy for the Wishing Bell Festival contest, but it was sometimes used to cheat. Its Trainer also likes to take credit for its Psychic powers.

==Trivia==
===Origin===
Elgyem is based on {{wp|Grey alien|greys}}, one of the more popular kinds of {{wp|extraterrestrial life|alien}}. Its rocky physical appearance may be a reference to the {{wp|stone circle}}s of Europe, which were allegedly created by visiting extraterrestrials. The colored dots on its hands resembles the colorful faces of the invaders in the {{wp|The War of the Worlds (1953 film)|1953 ''War of the Worlds'' film}}; however, the aliens in the film had green, blue and red dots while Elgyem has red, green and yellow. Judging from its Pokédex entry, Elgyem and its {{p|Beheeyem|evolution}} may also be based on the {{wp|Area 51}} {{wp|Area 51#UFO and other conspiracy theories concerning Area 51|alien conspiracies}} or the {{wp|Roswell UFO incident|Roswell incident}}. Considering its species names, physical appearance, and powers, it may also be based on a brain.

====Name origin====
Elgyem is a corruption of the abbreviation ''{{wp|Little green men|LGM}}'', a common term used to refer to extraterrestrials.

Ligray may be derived from ''{{wp|Grey alien|greys}}'' (a commonly speculated type of extraterrestrial) and may also be a combination of ''light'' (as in light-grey) or ''little'' and ''grey'' (alternative spelling of ''gray''). Alternatively, it may be a combination of ''little'' and a corruption of ''green'', referring to the slang for aliens: "little green men."

'''Clefable''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ピクシー''' ''Pixy'') is a {{type|Fairy}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]]. Prior to [[Generation VI]], it was a {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Clefairy}} when exposed to a [[Moon Stone]]. It is the final form of {{p|Cleffa}}.

==Biology==
Clefable is tall, pink Pokémon with a vaguely star-shaped body. It has long, pointed ears with dark brown tips and black, oval eyes with wrinkles on either side. A curled lock of fur hangs over its forehead, much like its long, tightly curled tail. There are dark pink wings on its back, and each wing has three points. Its hands have three fingers each, and its feet have two clawed toes and dark pink soles.

Clefable is a timid creature that flees when it senses people approaching, and is one of the world's rarest Pokémon. Its sensitive ears can distinctly hear a pin drop from half a mile (one kilometer) away. Because of its acute hearing, it prefers to live in quiet, {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountainous areas}} of which it is protective. Using a bouncy gait, it is able to walk on water and sometimes appears to be flying using its small wings.

==In the anime==
===In the main series===
====Major appearances====
[[File:Lusamine Clefable.png|thumb|250px|left|Clefable in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Clefable debuted in ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]''. After the large group of {{p|Clefairy}} blasted {{TRT}} away with {{m|Metronome}}, particles of the giant Moon Stone landed on some of the Clefairy, causing them to evolve.

Clefable appeared for another Mt. Moon Festival in ''[[AG134|A Real Cleffa-Hanger]]'' along with a group of Clefairy, where they were trying to find a missing {{p|Cleffa}}. They later helped send Team Rocket blasting off.

A Clefable appeared in a fantasy in ''[[SM044|A Dream Encounter!]]'', under the ownership of [[Lusamine]]. In the fantasy, it evolved from a Clefairy. It later appeared in ''[[SM050|Faba's Revenge!]]'', ''[[SM053|Rescuing the Unwilling!]]'', ''[[SM054|10,000,000 Reasons to Fight!]]'', ''[[SM055|The Professors' New Adventure!]]'', and [[SM061]].

====Minor appearances====
A Clefable was in a stage show about talking Pokémon for ''[[EP090|Stage Fight!]]''.

A Clefable appeared in ''[[EP169|Beauty and the Breeder]]'', where it participated in [[Pokémon Beauty Contest|a Pokémon breeding competition]].

A Clefable briefly appeared alongside a {{p|Raichu}} in ''[[AG122|Deceit and Assist]]''.

A Clefable appeared in ''[[AG174|New Plot, Odd Lot!]]'', under the ownership of a {{pkmn|Coordinator}} competing in the {{ci|Mulberry}} {{pkmn|Contest}}.

A Trainer's Clefable appeared in ''[[M20|I Choose You!]]''.

===In Pokémon Origins===
A Clefable appeared in ''[[PO04|File 4: Charizard]]'' in a fantasy.

==In the manga==
===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
In [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]], {{Ash}}, [[Professor Oak]], and [[Bill]] befriend a group of {{p|Clefairy}} living on [[Mt. Moon]] in ''[[ET03|Clefairy Tale]]''. They witness an evolution ceremony where many of the Clefairy in the group evolve into Clefable using a [[Moon Stone]] and then leave to explore the world.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Clefy.png|thumb|200px|Clefable in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
{{adv|Green}} had a Clefairy named Clefy which first appeared in ''[[PS032|A Little Kadabra'll Do It]]''. He later evolved into Clefable in ''[[PS033|The Winged Legends]]'' when {{adv|Red}} used his [[Moon Stone]] on him. Although he was used only once for distraction against [[Sabrina]] prior to evolving, his increased power allowed him to stall {{DL|Legendary birds (Adventures)|Thu-Fi-Zer}} for a short time with his {{m|Metronome}}. He has since been used as a main member of her team in Green's battle against [[Lorelei]], where he {{m|minimize}}d himself to retrieve her miniature ice sculptures, deliberately blowing off the arm part to let the Elite Four's guard down. He has seen no major appearances since, despite always being listed as a team member.

A Clefable appeared in ''[[PS179|The Last Battle XIII]]'' as one of the Pokémon sent to help the fight in [[Ilex Forest]].

A Trainer's Clefable appeared in ''[[PS418|Deprogramming Porygon-Z]]''.

[[Lusamine]]'s Clefable first appeared in [[PASM13]].

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
{{main|Red's Clefairy}}
In the [[Pokémon Pocket Monsters]] manga, {{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}}'s Clefairy can evolve into Clefable, although it has since devolved back to the Clefairy stage, as Pokémon can reverse the evolution process. Clefairy first evolves into Clefable in ''[[PM023|Clefairy Evolves... At Last?!]]''.

[[Whitney]] has a Clefable which is {{TP|Red|Clefairy}}'s childhood friend.

==Trivia==
* The [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|prototype name]] for Clefable was ''Ariala''.
* Clefable and its {{p|Clefairy|pre-evolution}} share their {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Snubbull}} and {{p|Granbull}}. They are all known as the Fairy Pokémon.
* Clefable, {{p|Sandshrew|Alolan Sandshrew}}, {{p|Latias}}, {{p|Gurdurr}}, {{p|Greninja}}, Ash-Greninja, and {{p|Minior|Minior (Meteor Form)}} are all the same weight as {{ga|Ethan}}.

===Origin===
It seems to be based on {{wp|fairy|fairies}} and pixies, being a magical, humanoid, playful creature with wings.

====Name origin====
Clefable is a combination of ''{{wp|clef}}'' (musical key) and ''{{wp|fable}}''. It may also be derived from ''able'', considering its sharp hearing and ability to lightly skip on water.

Pixy is a corruption of ''{{wp|pixie}}''.

'''Clefairy''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ピッピ''' ''Pippi'') is a {{type|Fairy}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]]. Prior to [[Generation VI]], it was a {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Cleffa}} when [[level]]ed up with high [[friendship]] and evolves into {{p|Clefable}} when exposed to a [[Moon Stone]].

==Biology==
[[File:Clefairy floating.png|thumb|200px|left|Clefairy floating]]
Clefairy is a bipedal, pink Pokémon with a chubby, vaguely star-shaped body. A small, pointed tooth protrudes from the upper left corner of its mouth. It has wrinkles beside its black, oval eyes, dark pink, oval markings on its cheeks, two small wings, and large, pointed ears with brown tips. A tuft of fur curls over its forehead, much like its large, upward-curling tail. Each stocky arm has two small claws and a thumb on each hand, and each of its feet has a single toenail.

Clefairy is very shy and rarely shows itself to humans. On the rare occasions it does come down from its {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountain home}}, it can be seen dancing under the light of the full moon. Once the sun starts to rise, it returns home where it sleeps nestled with other Clefairy. Though incapable of flight, Clefairy's wings can store moonlight and allow it to float. [[EP062|The anime]] has shown that Clefairy is actually an [[extraterrestrial Pokémon]].

==Trivia==
* The [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|prototype name]] for Clefairy was ''Aria''.
* Clefairy and its {{p|Clefable|evolution}} share their {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Snubbull}} and {{p|Granbull}}. They are all known as the Fairy Pokémon.
* Clefairy was originally going to be the official mascot of Pokémon, but {{p|Pikachu}} was used instead due to the popularity of the {{pkmn|anime}} and Pikachu's familiarity with fans.<ref>''[[Pikachu's Global Adventure]]: the Rise and Fall of Pokémon''. By Joseph Jay Tobin. Page 63.</ref><ref>Lucard, Alex. "Beckett's Ultimate Guide to Pikachu!" ''Beckett Pokémon Unofficial Collector'' July-Aug. 2010: 17.</ref>
** In the original [[EP001|pilot episode]] of the anime, Clefairy was intended to be {{Ash}}'s starting Pokémon. Due to a last minute change, the role went to {{AP|Pikachu}}. This would have made the anime closer to the [[Pokémon Pocket Monsters]] manga, which would later be referenced in ''[[AG086|Lights, Camerupt, Action!]]'', where its main character, {{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}}, along with his {{TP|Red|Clefairy}} starred in a film that Ash and Gary were watching when they were younger.
* The [[Poké Doll]] is an item based on Clefairy.
* Clefairy is the first {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon in [[National Pokédex]] order.

===Origin===
It seems to be based on a {{wp|fairy}}, being a magical, somewhat humanoid, winged creature, lending credit to its name.

====Name origin====
Clefairy is a combination of ''{{wp|clef}}'' (French for [musical] key) and ''{{wp|fairy}}''.

Pippi may be a shortening and repetition of ''{{wp|pixie}}''.

'''Cleffa''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ピィ''' ''Py'') is a {{type|Fairy}} [[baby Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation II]]. Prior to [[Generation VI]], it was a {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Clefairy}} when [[level]]ed up with high [[friendship]], which evolves into {{p|Clefable}} when exposed to a [[Moon Stone]].

==Biology==
Cleffa is a small, pink creature that is vaguely star-shaped in appearance. Its ears are completely brown. It has two small black eyes, a small mouth, and it appears to have a small, permanent blush on its cheeks. It possesses stubby, digitless arms and legs, which come to a point. It has a curl on its forehead and a curled up tail.

Cleffa lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountainous regions}}, typically found at meteor impact sites. Sightings of Cleffa increase on nights illuminated by shooting stars, where they dance the night away; this dance is said to bring good fortune to any who witness it. They quench their thirst the next morning by drinking dew. It is fascinated by anything resembling stars and meteors, such as {{p|Minior}}. Because of this, as well as its own star-shaped silhouette, Cleffa is commonly believed to have arrived on a shooting star.

==In the anime==

It evolved at the end of the episode.

Several Cleffa appeared in ''[[AG134|A Real Cleffa-Hanger]]'', where they played a major role.

A Cleffa appeared in ''[[DP190|The Brockster Is In!]]'', under the ownership of [[Normajean]]. It was among the Pokémon poisoned by a group of wild {{p|Tentacruel}} but where saved thanks to [[Brock's Chansey]] and {{m|Softboiled}}.

==Trivia==
* Cleffa shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Staryu}}. They are both known as Star Shape Pokémon.
* Cleffa is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 218.
* Cleffa has the shortest Japanese Pokémon name.
* Cleffa is tied with {{p|Igglybuff}} for the lowest base {{stat|Speed}} stat of all {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon.

===Origin===
It is possible that it's based on {{wp|fairy|fairies}} and {{wp|pixie}}s, just like its evolutions.

====Name origin====
Cleffa is a corruption of ''{{wp|clef}}'' (French for [musical] key). It is ultimately a diminutive of ''{{p|Clefairy}}'', indicating it is less than Clefairy.

Py may be a shortening of ''{{wp|pixie}}''. It is ultimately a diminutive of ''{{p|Clefairy|Pippi}}''.

'''Ditto''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''メタモン''' ''Metamon'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].

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

It can [[Pokémon breeding|breed]] with any Pokémon other than the Pokémon in the {{egg|Undiscovered}} group and itself, including {{egg|Gender unknown|some genderless Pokémon}}, to produce Eggs of the other's species.

==Biology==
[[File:Duplica Ditto Pikachu.png|200px|thumb|left|[[Duplica]]'s Ditto {{m|transform}}ed as a {{p|Pikachu}}]]
In its natural state, Ditto is a light purple or magenta free-form blob with vestigial facial features. It also appears to have two vestigial, handless 'arms' protruding from its body.

It is capable of transforming into an exact replica of any physical object, including its form and abilities. However, if Ditto tries to transform into something based on memory, it may get some of the details wrong. Each Ditto has its own strengths and weaknesses when it comes to transforming. [[EP037|The anime]] and [[Ditto (TCG)|the TCG]] have shown that occasionally a Ditto cannot change its face. Ditto will also be unable to remain in a transformed state if it starts laughing. When two Ditto meet in the wild, they will attempt to transform into each other. Ditto will also transform into a rock when sleeping to avoid attack. Ditto is never far from {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|civilization or people}}.

A Trainer in the [[Goldenrod Game Corner]] is seen with a Ditto in ''[[PS107|Gligar Glide]]''.

Ditto is seen later used by [[Team Rocket]] in ''[[PS127|Miltank Melee]]'', to lure {{adv|Crystal}} and [[Eusine]] away from {{p|Suicune}} and smother them when discovered. It was, however, defeated by Crystal's {{p|Hitmonchan}}, [[Monlee]].

==In the TCG==
{{main|Ditto (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
[[File:Ditto Melee.png|right|thumb|A screenshot of Ditto in Melee]]
Ditto was originally intended to be one of the Pokémon randomly released from a [[Poké Ball]]. It would have transformed into a copy of the user's character and aided them in battle. However, processing problems forced its removal before the game's release. Ditto can be still be unlocked through the debug menu (which is only accessible through the use of Action Replay), though it does not do anything other than give 7-8% damage to those who touch it.

As for its official status, Ditto only appears as a random trophy and as a cameo in the Tournament Mode menu. In Winner Out or Loser Out tournaments, holding down L and R and pressing A will give the player a random character and color. The usual character image will instead be taken by a picture of Ditto.

====Trophy information====
''Every Ditto has the ability to copy a Pokémon's entire cell structure in an instant and become its exact replica. They're terrible at remembering techniques, but when they use {{m|Transform}}, they temporarily learn all of their foe's moves. If a Ditto starts to laugh, it weakens and can't hold its transformation.''

==Trivia==
* Ditto is the only Pokémon to date with a [[catch rate]] of 35. However, in generations [[Generation III|III]] and [[Generation IV|IV]], if Ditto transforms into another Pokémon, its catch rate will become that of the new Pokémon.
* Ditto and {{p|Manaphy}} are the only Pokémon that are both able to breed yet unobtainable through breeding. Ditto, however, is the only one of the two that is not available at level 1 legally (legitimately the lowest level it is able to be is 10, in [[Generation II]] and its Generation IV [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|remakes]]).
* In [[Pokémon Snap]], Ditto takes the form of {{p|Bulbasaur}} in the [[Pokémon Island Cave|Cave stage]]. The player can cause them to return to their Ditto form by hitting them with an object. When the player takes their picture, Ditto has the same eyes when it is transformed as when it is not. This trait is shared by [[Duplica]]'s Ditto in the [[EP037|anime]], although it was understood that this was not natural. {{TCG|Ditto|Ditto cards}} from the {{TCG|EX Delta Species}} {{Trading Card Game}} expansion and the Clefairy Ditto that may appear in the [[Veilstone Game Corner]]'s slot machines also have this trait.
* Ditto is one of two Pokémon to have two different species-specific [[Stat-enhancing item]]s associated with it, the other being {{p|Clamperl}}. Ditto's two associated items, the Metal Powder and Quick Powder, seem to be the same colors as Ditto's normal and {{Shiny}} forms, respectively.
* In [[Pokémon Rumble]], since {{m|Transform}} was not programmed into the game, Ditto can only know {{m|Struggle}}. Since PP does not exist in Rumble, this makes Ditto the only Pokémon in Rumble that can use Struggle. However, Transform does exist in [[Pokémon Rumble Blast]], so Ditto has a move.
* Ditto is the most common Pokémon in [[Pokémon Trozei!]], appearing in every area. This is due to its ability to transform, enabling the player a way to advance further if no links are available before Ditto appear.
* Ditto shares several aspects with {{p|Mew}}: the move {{m|Transform}}, the same {{Shiny}} blue and normal pink color, perfectly balanced base stats, and its weight of 8.8 lbs. (4.0 kg).
* Prior to [[Generation VI]], Ditto and {{p|Poliwag}} had the same [[cry]].
* Since Transform copies its target's stats (except HP), Ditto cannot utilize its Special Attack stat before Transforming, though it can use its Attack stat for {{m|Struggle}} and {{status|confusion}} damage.
* In [[Generation II]], a transformed Ditto keeps its original purple color palette (blue if Shiny).
* Since Ditto's only move, Transform, cannot copy moves in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series and has only one PP, its only move after transforming is Struggle.
* In Generation VI, Ditto is only given one move animation (despite the two animations minimum most Pokémon have for contact and non-contact moves).
* On October 4, 2017, [[The Pokémon Company]] posted a Ditto-themed music video onto their YouTube channel titled [[Dit-to Ditto]].
* In [[Pokémon GO]], Ditto appears in the wild disguised as other Pokémon. After being caught, it will reveal its true form.

===Glitches===
====Index 000 post-capture====
In [[Generation I]], if the player manages to capture an [['M (00)]], it will still be in battle with the player, and the battle will not end. Catching 'M (00) again results in the second one becoming a Ditto of the same level.

====Ditto glitch====
{{main|Mew glitch#Ditto glitch|Mew glitch}}
The primary method of the Mew glitch involves having a wild Ditto transform into the player's Pokémon, as this copies the {{stat|Special}} stat, which is used to modify the species of Pokémon encountered.

====Transform assumption glitch====
In Generations {{gen|I}} and {{gen|II}}, any Pokémon that uses {{m|Transform}} is regarded as a Ditto in its new form; this means that if the player catches a {{p|Mew}} or a [[glitch Pokémon]] which has used the move Transform, or a Pokémon which has used Transform via {{m|Mirror Move}}, instead they will obtain a Ditto. Mew turning into Ditto was not an issue, because wild Mew could not have been legitimately encountered. This system was later changed in Generation III, where wild Mew could be legitimately encountered.

====Shiny Ditto glitch====
{{main|List of glitches in Generation II#Shiny Ditto DV manipulation}}
By trading any [[Shiny Pokémon]] to a Generation I game, having a wild Ditto transform into that Pokémon, then catching and trading the Ditto into a Generation II game, the Ditto will be Shiny.

====Transform-specific glitches====

===Origin===
{{Bulbanews|Unused Pokémon design revealed in magazine interview}}
In the sixth issue of {{wp|Best Buy}}'s @Gamer magazine, Game Freak developers Junichi Masuda and Ken Sugimori revealed that Ditto was originally based on the iconic {{wp|smiley}} face. Its eyes and mouth are exactly like ":)", which is an emoticon representing the smiley.

Additionally, Ditto strongly resembles an ''{{wp|amoeba}}'', a single-celled organism with no definite shape. This may emphasize its ability to alter its cellular composition. This could also explain why Ditto is unavailable through breeding, since single-celled organisms reproduce differently from multi-cellular plants and animals. It also could partially be based on an {{wp|undifferentiated cell}}, a cell in the body that can change into any other cell by sampling it. It could also have been based on a {{wp|blob}}.

====Name origin====
Ditto's name is the English word ''ditto'', meaning "that which has been said before" (itself from Italian, where it means "having been said"). It was also a brand name for spirit duplicators, and came to mean copies of master documents created by those duplicators.

Metamon is a combination of ''{{wp|metamorph}}'' and ''monster''. Alternatively, ''Meta'' as a prefix can mean "all-encompassing," which Ditto's {{m|Transform}} move does do to Pokémon.
