'''Klinklang''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ギギギアル''' ''Gigigiaru'') is a {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.
'''Klinklang''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ギギギアル''' ''Gigigiaru'') is a {{type|Steel}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]].


It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Klang}} starting at [[level]] 49 and is the final form of {{p|Klink}}.
It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Klang}} starting at [[level]] 49. It is the final form of {{p|Klink}}.


==Biology==
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Klinklang is a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} resembling four interlocking gears, with six teeth on the smaller two gears and eight teeth on the larger gear. The fourth gear is on its lower side, and is red-topped with a thin, spiked rim below it. The red core is used to store energy gained from the rotating gears. This energy can be released through the spiked gear at the bottom. The teeth of the smaller gears are a light gray, while their central regions are much darker. The teeth of the larger gear are a medium gray and its central region is darker. The left eye of the smaller gear is a white "X", while its right eye has a black pupil and a white sclera. It has a round green nose and a small mouth. The largest gear appears to have a face with a black square for its right eye, a black circle for its left eye, and a sharply angled white frown.  
Klinklang looks identical to its pre-evolution, {{p|Klang}}, except for the additions of a red-topped gear on its lower side and a thin, spiked rim below it.  


====Gender differences====
Dialogue between the two faced gears in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series]] suggests that both gears are independently sentient from one another.<ref>''[[Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon]]''. '''Big Gear''': Crcch... They caught up with us... / '''Big Gear''': We're finished... / '''Minigear''': They are just way too strong. Sorry, Big Gear, it couldn't be helped...</ref> However, the spike gear it gains after evolving is not actually alive. Klinklang's red core is able to contain an enormous amount of energy, which it uses to launch gears as well as powerful blasts of electricity from its spikes.  
Klinklang are a genderless species.


===Special abilities===
Klinklang and its pre-evolved forms are the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Gear Grind}}. Prior to [[Generation VII]], {{m|Shift Gear}} was also one of its signature moves. Its red core gear can spin at high speeds to rapidly charge itself with energy.


===Behavior===
===Evolution===
Klinklang charges energy by spinning its red-topped gear and releases it through the spiked gear at the bottom. Its red core functions as an energy tank and if spun at high speed, it will result in a rapid energy change.
Klinklang evolves from {{p|Klang}} and is the final form of {{p|Klink}}.


===Habitat===

===Major appearances===
|no2=0600
Klinklang appeared in ''[[M14|White—Victini and Zekrom and Black—Victini and Reshiram]]'' with {{p|Klink}} and {{p|Klang}} under the ownership of [[Eindoak Town]] mayor [[Mannes]]. He used the three for various tasks, such as powering the music machine at Eindoak Town's Harvest Festival, doing yard work on his property and finally, powering his helicopter in the climax of the films.

Klinklang made its anime TV debut in ''[[BW063|Evolution Exchange Excitement!]]''. One appeared in [[Chargestone Cave]], where it had a pen that was left behind by [[Cedric Juniper]] stuck in its gears. The same Klinklang later appeared in a flashback in ''[[BW065|Battling the Bully!]]'', when it was revealed that the [[Ash's Krookodile|Sunglasses Krokorok]] threw the pen into its gears by accident.

====Major appearances====
Klinklang debuted in [[M14|''White—Victini and Zekrom'' and ''Black—Victini and Reshiram'']] alongside Klink and Klang; they are all under the ownership of [[Mannes]]. He used the three for various tasks, such as powering the music machine at Eindoak Town's Harvest Festival, doing yard work on his property, and powering his helicopter in the climax of the films.
 
Klinklang made its main series debut in ''[[BW063|Evolution Exchange Excitement!]]''. It appeared in [[Chargestone Cave]], where it had a pen that was left behind by [[Cedric Juniper]] stuck in its gears. The same Klinklang later appeared in a flashback in ''[[BW065|Battling the Bully!]]'', when it was revealed that the {{AP|Sunglasses Krokorok|Krookodile}} had accidentally thrown the pen into its gears.
 
====Minor appearances====
A Klinklang appeared in a flashback in ''[[BW064|Explorers of the Hero's Ruin!]]''.
 
In ''[[BW102|Team Eevee and the Pokémon Rescue Squad!]]'', two Klinklang were used by [[Virgil]]'s family to power two separate helicopters. One of them reappeared in ''[[BW103|Curtain Up, Unova League!]]'' and ''[[Mewtwo — Prologue to Awakening]]''.
 
In ''[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]'', a Klinklang was on a television monitor.

When it charges up energy, Klinklang spins the small cog with the red core at very high speeds.''


==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Klinklang and its evolutionary relatives are the only pure {{type|Steel}} Pokémon related by [[evolution]].
* Despite being gender unknown, Klinklang is referred to as a male in the [[PokéPark 2: Wonders Beyond]] PokéPad entry.
* Klinklang and its evolutionary relatives are the only non-{{type|Electric}} Pokémon able to learn {{m|ThunderShock}}.
* Klinklang is the only rentable Pokémon to use a move twice as an opponent in [[Dynamax Adventure]]s.
* Klinklang is the same height as its {{p|Klang|pre-evolution}}.
* The idea for Klinklang's evolutionary line came from [[Ken Sugimori]],<ref name=ND204/> while the designs were done by [[Keiko Moritsugu]].<ref>[https://imgur.com/a/cgf0g14 Archive of deleted tweet by Keiko Moritsugu]</ref>


===Origin===
===Origin===
Klinklang is based on interlocking gears, more specifically a combination of {{wp|sun and planet gear}}s, a {{wp|bevel gear}} and an {{wp|Gear#External vs. internal gears|external gear}}. The {{p|Klink}} line's {{Shiny}} coloration may have been based on {{wp|copper}} gears, as their noses have turned green as copper does when it oxidizes into such compounds as {{wp|copper carbonate}}, forming a  patina.
Klinklang is based on interlocking gears,<ref name=ND204>''Nintendo Dream'' Vol. 204, April 2011 ([https://web.archive.org/web/20110704155314/http://shellspider.blog101.fc2.com/blog-entry-502.html Shellspider's blog (Japanese)], [http://lavacutcontent.com/ken-sugimori-nintendo-dream-6/ Translation by Dr. Lava])</ref> perhaps specifically a combination of {{wp|sun and planet gear}}s, a {{wp|bevel gear}}, and an {{wp|Gear#External vs internal gears|external gear}}. Its appearance may also be based on a {{wp|balance wheel}}. The red core of one of the wheels could be a reference to the {{wp|jewel bearing|jewel bearings}} in mechanical watches, which are often made out of ruby.


====Name origin====
====Name origin====
Klinklang is a combination of ''{{p|Klink}}'' and ''{{p|Klang}}'', making it also a combination of ''clink'' and ''clang'' (onomatopoeia for metal striking a surface). It may also involve ''link'', possibly referring to how the four gears are connected.
Klinklang may be a combination of ''{{p|Klink}}'' and ''{{p|Klang}}'', with the latter two names resembling ''clink'' and ''clang'' (onomatopoeia for metal striking a surface).  


Gigigiaru is derived from ''gear'', with ''gi'' repeated twice to denote the addition of Klang's fourth gear.
Gigigiaru may be derived from ギア ''gear'' with the first syllable repeated twice.

Klinklang (Japanese: ギギギアル Gigigiaru) is a Steel-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V.

It evolves from Klang starting at level 49. It is the final form of Klink.

Biology

Klinklang is a Pokémon resembling four interlocking gears, with six teeth on the smaller two gears and eight teeth on the larger gear. The fourth gear is on its lower side, and is red-topped with a thin, spiked rim below it. The red core is used to store energy gained from the rotating gears. This energy can be released through the spiked gear at the bottom. The teeth of the smaller gears are a light gray, while their central regions are much darker. The teeth of the larger gear are a medium gray and its central region is darker. The left eye of the smaller gear is a white "X", while its right eye has a black pupil and a white sclera. It has a round green nose and a small mouth. The largest gear appears to have a face with a black square for its right eye, a black circle for its left eye, and a sharply angled white frown.

Dialogue between the two faced gears in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series suggests that both gears are independently sentient from one another.[1] However, the spike gear it gains after evolving is not actually alive. Klinklang's red core is able to contain an enormous amount of energy, which it uses to launch gears as well as powerful blasts of electricity from its spikes.

Klinklang and its pre-evolved forms are the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Gear Grind. Prior to Generation VII, Shift Gear was also one of its signature moves. Its red core gear can spin at high speeds to rapidly charge itself with energy.

Evolution

Klinklang evolves from Klang and is the final form of Klink.

In the anime

Main series

Klinklang in the anime

Major appearances

Klinklang debuted in White—Victini and Zekrom and Black—Victini and Reshiram alongside Klink and Klang; they are all under the ownership of Mannes. He used the three for various tasks, such as powering the music machine at Eindoak Town's Harvest Festival, doing yard work on his property, and powering his helicopter in the climax of the films.

Klinklang made its main series debut in Evolution Exchange Excitement!. It appeared in Chargestone Cave, where it had a pen that was left behind by Cedric Juniper stuck in its gears. The same Klinklang later appeared in a flashback in Battling the Bully!, when it was revealed that the Sunglasses Krokorok had accidentally thrown the pen into its gears.

Minor appearances

A Klinklang appeared in a flashback in Explorers of the Hero's Ruin!.

In Team Eevee and the Pokémon Rescue Squad!, two Klinklang were used by Virgil's family to power two separate helicopters. One of them reappeared in Curtain Up, Unova League! and Mewtwo — Prologue to Awakening.

In Genesect and the Legend Awakened, a Klinklang was on a television monitor.

Pokédex entries

Other appearances

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

Klinklang makes a cameo appearance in the Kalos Pokémon League stage. When the stage transitions to the Ironworks Chamber, it can be seen in the background along with Steelix, Scizor, and Honedge.

Trophy information

NA: This Pokémon evolves in the following order: Klink, Klang, and finally Klinklang. I wonder what it would be called if it evolved again... Klinklangklung? The noise from that Pokémon would be unbearable! Anyway, Klinklang's small, red center gear will spin at high speeds when it's charging up energy.

PAL: From Klink to Klang to Klinklang, this Pokémon gets noisier with each evolution! It has a nice ring to it, though. Maybe all Pokémon should be named this way! Abra, Kadabra, Abrakadabra? Gible, Gabite...Gigabite? Err...Moving on! When it charges up energy, Klinklang spins the small cog with the red core at very high speeds.

Trivia

Origin

Klinklang is based on interlocking gears,[2] perhaps specifically a combination of sun and planet gears, a bevel gear, and an external gear. Its appearance may also be based on a balance wheel. The red core of one of the wheels could be a reference to the jewel bearings in mechanical watches, which are often made out of ruby.

Name origin

Klinklang may be a combination of Klink and Klang, with the latter two names resembling clink and clang (onomatopoeia for metal striking a surface).

Gigigiaru may be derived from ギア gear with the first syllable repeated twice.
