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.
