Poliwrath (Japanese: ニョロボン Nyorobon) is a Water/Fighting-type Pokémon.
Pokédex entries
- Pokémon Emerald
- Its highly developed muscles never grow fatigued, however much it exercises. This Pokémon can swim back and forth across the Pacific Ocean without effort.
- Pokémon LeafGreen
- A swimmer adept at both the front crawl and breaststroke. Easily overtakes the best human swimmers.
Name origin
Poliwrath's name appears to be a combination of polliwog and wrath, meaning anger. Its Japanese name may come in part from ニョロニョロ nyoronyoro, the sound of slithering.
The spiral pattern on its belly is supposed to represent how the intestines of tadpoles can sometimes be seen through their transparent skin.
