Plusle (Japanese: プラスル Prasle) is an Electric-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon, but can be thought as a counterpart to Minun. Plusle, along with Minun, is one of the two Partner Pokémon available at the beginning of the Pokémon Ranger.

Biology

Plusle is a cream-colored bipedal Pokémon with red markings. It has a dot-like nose and a cream-colored plus sign in the middle of its circular red cheeks. It has long, flat ears that are mostly red. Its limbs are stubby and digitless, and it has red front paws. Its short tail is tipped with a red plus sign.

Plusle can create sparkly pom-poms by shorting out the electrical current in its palms. It uses these pom-poms to cheer on its teammates and will cry loudly if they lose. It climbs telephone poles to absorb electricity. It lives in grasslands and savannas. Plusle is often seen together with Minun.

Prior to Generation V, Plusle was the only known Pokémon that could have Plus as an Ability.

It appears with its counterpart, Minun.

"Cheering Pokémon. Plusle and Minun produce positive and negative energy, respectively. They both love cheering on their partners and place the encouragement of their partners over their own safety. To cheer, they short their electric currents to produce sparks that grow in intensity as their partners get into trouble."

Trivia

  • Plusle shares its category with its partner Minun. They are both known as the Cheering Pokémon.
  • Plusle and Minun share the same base stat total, although the stat distribution is different, with Plusle being more offense-oriented and Minun being more defense-oriented.
  • In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, there are several files for unused playable characters. One of these files is named "Pra_Mai", leading some players to speculate that Plusle and Minun were considered to appear as a tag team, like Ice Climbers.

Plusle seems to be based on a cheerleading mouse, chipmunk, or rabbit. It could also be an incarnation of a positive electric charge.

Name origin

Plusle and Prasle may be derived from plus, possibly in reference to positive electrical charge. It may also be derived from a partial anagram of pulse.
