Popplio (Japanese: アシマリ Ashimari) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VII.

It evolves into Brionne starting at level 17, which evolves into Primarina starting at level 34.

Along with Rowlet and Litten, Popplio is one of the three first partner Pokémon of Alola available at the beginning of Pokémon Sun, Moon, Ultra Sun, and Ultra Moon. They were also the second Generation VII Pokémon to be revealed to the public on May 10, 2016.

Biology

Popplio enjoys making bubbles from water!

Popplio is a pinniped Pokémon that is primarily blue. It has large eyes, a long, white snout with black whiskers, and a round, pink nose. There is a small, rounded earflap on each side of its head. Around its neck is a light blue ruff, which extends past its shoulders. It has four flippers. The front flippers are larger than the hind and have white markings separating its toes.

Popplio can snort bubbles of water from its nose, which it uses as part of its battle strategy. On land, it uses the elasticity of its bubbles to perform acrobatic stunts and jumps. Popplio practices daily with increasingly larger water bubbles. The sheer force of their bubbles bursting can deal a lot of damage. It can swim at 25 mph (40 km/h)[1] Popplio has complete control of its water bubbles. Popplio is famous for its hard-working nature. It has been recently seen living in the Terarium of Blueberry Academy.

Popplio and its evolved forms are the only known Pokémon that can have Liquid Voice as an Ability.

Evolution

Popplio evolves into Brionne, which evolves into Primarina.

Trivia

Origin

Popplio may be based on a sea lion and a Hawaiian monk seal with elements of a circus clown. Popplio's propensity for blowing bubbles from its nose may also be based on common circus trick where sea lions balance balls on their noses or on the hooded seal and its inflatable nasal cavity.

Name origin

Popplio may be a combination of sea lion pup, pop, pōpō (Hawaiian for ball), and ʻīlio-holo-i-ka-uaua (Hawaiian for the Hawaiian monk seal; meaning "dog that runs in rough water").

Ashimari may be a combination of 海驢 ashika (sea lion), 鞠 mari (ball), and marine.
