Ampharos (Japanese: デンリュウ Denryu) is an Electric-type Pokémon introduced in Generation II.

It evolves from Flaaffy starting at level 30. It is the final form of Mareep.

Ampharos can Mega Evolve into Mega Ampharos using the Ampharosite.

Ampharos was officially revealed in the May 1997 issue of CoroCoro, along with Donphan and Slowking.^[1]

Biology

Ampharos is a yellow, bipedal ovine Pokémon with a white belly. It has conical ears with black stripes and a red orb on its forehead. Its long neck has several black rings around it near the base. Its stubby arms resemble flippers and each foot has a single white nail. It has a long, black-striped tail with a red orb at the tip. The orb on its tail can shine so bright, that it can be seen from space. People have used the light as a beacon, or to send signals across the ocean. Ampharos is generally found in grasslands, though it can also be found in farms alongside its pre-evolved forms Mareep and Flaaffy. As mentioned in Pokémon Sleep, the tail light of a sleeping Ampharos can sometimes seen in the distance at night.^[2]The reason is due to Ampharos forgeting to turn off its tail light before going to sleep.

Forms

Ampharos can Mega Evolve into Mega Ampharos.

As Mega Ampharos, its toes turn black and it regrows white wool at the back of its head and over its tail, having its genes stimulated by Mega Evolution. This energy also awakens its long-sleeping dragon blood. Its long wooly tail has many small, red orbs attached to it. Its conical ears retain their stripes but are now segmented with swirled tips. When it increases the amount of electrical energy within itself, the red orbs on its body and wool emit a strong light.^[3]

Major appearances

Amphy

Jasmine has an Ampharos that lights up the Shining Lighthouse in Olivine City, which debuted in Fight for the Light!, thus also marking the species' debut. It was sick so Ash and his friends went to Cianwood City to pick up medicine. This Ampharos was nicknamed Sparkle in the English dub.

Other

In Manectric Charge, Watt used an Ampharos to free Ash, May, and Brock's Pokémon from Team Rocket's net. It then battled May's Skitty and ultimately lost.

In Those Darn Electabuzz!, Shigeo's Ampharos battled his son Corey's Charizard, nicknamed Don, as part of Don's training.

In A Chip Off the Old Brock, McCauley uses his Ampharos's electricity to make special potions for the pharmacy McCauley works at.

In Drifloon On the Wind!, Karsten has an Ampharos that assists him with his work at Valley Windworks.

Trivia

An earlier Ampharos design circa 1997

An early design for Ampharos depicts it with a shorter neck.
Ampharos shares the same category with Lanturn. They are both known as the Light Pokémon.

Origin

Ampharos resembles a sheared sheep that its evolutionary family leads up to as they lose wool with each evolution. It also shares traits with a lighthouse, such as its height, stripes, and the beacon on the top; the two also share a name. It, as well as its pre-evolved forms, may have been based on the title of the sci-fi novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?.

Mega Ampharos's Dragon type, wooly mane, wooly tail, jewel-like orbs on its tail, and slender body suggest that it is based on a Chinese dragon.

Name origin

Ampharos may be a combination of amp (a measure of electrical current) and Φάρος pháros (Greek for lighthouse), as well as amparo (Portuguese and Spanish for aid and protection).

Denryu may be derived from 電流 denryū (electric current), as well as forming a pun on 電竜 den ryū (electric dragon). It may also incorporate 電球 denkyū (light bulb), referring to its tail.

 '''Ampharos''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''デンリュウ''' ''Denryu'') is an {{type|Electric}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

-Ampharos is a yellow, bipedal Pokémon with a white belly. It has conical ears with black stripes and a red orb on its forehead. Its long neck has several black rings around it near the base. Its stubby arms resemble flippers and each foot has a single white nail. It has a long, black-striped tail with a red orb at the tip. The orb on its tail can shine so bright, that it can be seen from space. People have used the light as a beacon, or to send signals across the ocean. Ampharos is generally found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grasslands}}.
-As Mega Ampharos, its toes turn black and it regrows white wool at the back of its head and over its tail, having its genes stimulated by Mega Evolution. This energy also awakens its long-sleeping dragon blood. Its long wooly tail has many small, red orbs attached to it. Its conical ears retain their stripes, but are now segmented with swirled tips. When it increases the amount of electrical energy within itself, the red orbs on its body and wool emit a strong light.<ref>http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/mega_pokemon/#Ampharos</ref>
+Ampharos was officially revealed in the May 1997 issue of [[CoroCoro]], along with {{p|Donphan}} and {{p|Slowking}}.<ref>https://www.zoidsland.com/1rebyu-/koro97-5b.html</ref>

 [[File:Official Pokemon Fanbook 1997 Ampharos Sprite.png|thumb|200px|An earlier Ampharos design circa 1997]]
-* An {{DL|List of unused Pokémon and character designs|Ampharos|early design}} for Ampharos depicts it without a long neck or red orbs.
+* An {{DL|List of unused Pokémon and character designs|Ampharos|early design}} for Ampharos depicts it with a shorter neck.
 * Ampharos shares the same {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Lanturn}}. They are both known as the Light Pokémon.
-* Mega Ampharos has the highest base {{stat|Special Defense}} stat of all {{type|Electric}} Pokémon.
-* During the development of {{g|Gold and Silver}}, Ampharos was stated to be an Electric/{{type|Dragon}} Pokémon. It later gained an Electric/Dragon-type [[Mega Evolution]] in [[Generation VI]].
 ===Origin===
-Ampharos resembles a sheared {{wp|sheep}} that its evolution line leads up to as they lose wool with each evolution. It also shares traits with a {{wp|lighthouse}}, such as its height, stripes and the beacon on the top; the two also share a name. It, as well as its pre-evolutions, may have been based on the title of the science fiction novel ''{{wp|Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?}}''. Mega Ampharos's {{t|Dragon}}-type, mane, and slender body suggest that it is based on a {{wp|Chinese dragon}}.

+[[Mega Evolution|Mega]] Ampharos's {{t|Dragon}} type, wooly mane, wooly tail, jewel-like orbs on its tail, and slender body suggest that it is based on a {{wp|Chinese dragon}}.
 ====Name origin====
-Ampharos is a combination of ''ampere'' or ''{{wp|amp}}'' (a measure of electrical current) and ''pharos'' (Greek for ''lighthouse''). The name may also incorporate ''amph-'' (Greek for ''both'' or ''on both sides'') in reference to the two red orbs on its head and tail.  Its body shares a similar shape to an ''{{wp|amphora}}'', as well as a similar name.
+Ampharos may be a combination of ''{{wp|ampere|amp}}'' (a measure of electrical current) and Φάρος ''pháros'' (Greek for lighthouse), as well as ''amparo'' (Portuguese and Spanish for ''aid'' and ''protection'').
-Denryu can be taken to mean 電流 ''denryū'' (electric current) or 電竜 ''den ryū'' (electric dragon), and it may incorporate 電球 ''denkyū'' (light bulb), referring to its tail.
+Denryu may be derived from 電流 ''denryū'' (electric current), as well as forming a pun on 電竜 ''den ryū'' (electric dragon). It may also incorporate 電球 ''denkyū'' (light bulb), referring to its tail.
