I might be stretching the definition a bit and many of these would probably fall into trivia, but these are all Pokemon that I think of that could still count as fusions:

• Weezing is stated to be a fusion of two Koffings
• Vanilluxe is made from two Vannilish melted together
• Dugtrio is said to be "Formed when three Diglett combine."
• Barbaracle is a fusion of sever Binacle
• Zygarde is a fusion of its core and multiple cells
• Original Dragon exists only in legend, but it's a fusion of Kyurem, Reshiram and Zekrom
• Spiritomb is made out of fused spirits
• Basculegion is a fusion of dead Basculin
• Galarian fossils and Type:Null/Silvally are in theory fusions of multiple Pokemon
• Tatsugiri fuses with Dondozo
• Dipplin and Hydrapplin are two and seven wyrms joined in one apple
• Wishiwashi's School Form is a fusion of multiple Wishiwashi
• Melmetal is a combination of multiple Meltan
• Combee can fuse into "wall of Combee"
• Maushold's babies are said to "just appear one day"
• Starmobile is a fusion of Revavroom and two Varoom
• Some Pokemon carry other Pokemon on their body in their arts and are considered a part of it: Matine with Remoraid, Drakloak/Dragapult hold Dreepy, Cramorant has Arrokuda/Pikachu in its beak, Kangaskhan holds a baby.

There's also a few Pokemon that can split and join together again like: Exeggcute, Doublade, Stakataka, Falinks, Probopass, Corviknight, Klang, Klinklang.--Rocket Grunt 11:03, 5 January 2024 (UTC)

No this is perfect, that means they are meant more examples. More ways to add to the page. will it bigger, maybe but its better to have information or have it been mention in its own seciton.--Jacob9594 (talk) 13:31, 5 January 2024 (UTC)

I'd say several of these are relevant. I'll look into it more later. Landfish7 22:59, 5 January 2024 (UTC)

separating mechanical fusion from "lore" fusions

there is a specific in-game mechanic for fusing two pokemon, that is only used for kyurem, necrozma, and calyrex. i think these should be in a separate category at the top of the page, with the other examples listed afterwards. Crows (talk) 03:53, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

I can look into doing something like that. Landfish7 04:09, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

I second that, its a very appealing suggesiton.--Jacob9594 (talk) 04:10, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

Done. Landfish7 04:15, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

There's a fan subpage that looks very similar to this article. I think it could be incorporated here. Pokemon that could be included would be:

• Paras and Parasect - it is technically a fusion of two or entities, one being Pokemon and the other mushroom
• Doduo and Dodrio - I guess it's a fusion of two heads
• Girafarig and Farigiraf - simialar to Doduo
• Zweilous, Hydreigon and Iron Jugulis - similar to Doduo
• Nincada - it splits into two entities so beside fusion there could also be a place for Pokemon that split
• Scovillain - simialar to Doduo
• Rabsca - I don't know if it's worth to mention but Rabsca is always carring a larva with itself

That's a nice page! I do worry that this dilutes the concept a bit though. I intentionally included species that are a combination of multiple, independent Pokémon. Actually, the article currently includes Cherrim, who I feel does not quite fit, as the fruit isn't even implied to be sentient let alone a Pokémon that combined with Cherrim or could be separated as its own Pokémon. I think a better place for Cherrim and some of the examples you share above would be in the Similar examples section, with clarifying notes explaining why each one does not unambiguously fit the definition, such as how Paras and Parasect's bug body and mushrooms are never implied to be two Pokémon that combined (though I'd be willing to hear out arguments on this). Landfish7 12:02, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

Yea, "similar examples" section would be best for those. I think in case for Parasect it is pretty much implied they're separate organisms, "The bug is mostly dead, with the mushroom on its back having become the main body. If the mushroom comes off, the bug stops moving.".--Rocket Grunt 13:39, 8 November 2024 (UTC)

I've added the suggested content :) Landfish7 14:26, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Awesome! I think you can also delete the fan subpage and consider its content mainspaced.--Rocket Grunt 15:02, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

RE:Splitting

I personally really don't feel this needs to be split. I think the article does an excellent job exploring the general concept of combined Pokémon, and I struggle to think of how it can continue to accomplish that effectively if everything is split between several different pages. Landfish7 13:47, 13 November 2025 (UTC)

I agree. It would be unusual for us to split a page in such a manner. -- Apopheniac (talk) 01:07, 16 November 2025 (UTC)

Drawing attention back to this discussion, as the person who put up the split template (and I explained my reasoning in my edit), I think there's just far too much information on Kyurem, Calyrex and Necrozma for a split not to happen. While the page does split between the three and every other "fusion" (some of of which like Stakataka don't even seem like a fusion imo, but that's beside the point), it's almost like saying Kyurem is on the same level as Dugtrio. I've been told by some people that the current standing of this page is awkward and doesn't have the information they are looking for, it's a list of Pokemon with multiple entities which includes mention of fusion, but is not a page for fusion, (which may have its own place still, it's really informative in that sense). "Pokemon fusion" is a term used in-universe, specifically applied to Kyurem and Necrozma, and we're applying it to Pokemon that don't fit the definition.

I made a whole page myself based on the entire mechanic. It genuinely goes really deep with how they function. I suppose you can argue that you can just go into the individual species' pages to learn how they work, but Calyrex actually can be caught while fused where as something like Kyurem and Necrozma are not. I think not only comparison between all three of them matter, but also the fact the those three work differently between game and story context, in addition to the mechanic being obtained differently throughout different games. We treat fusions throughout the site like forms (because they are), but we don't really go into the actual form aspect beyond the Pokemon species pages.

Really gotta commend the effort put into that draft! I think we could reasonably create that article independently of splitting out content from this page, and a "Main article" link to it could be added to the "Pokémon that can fuse via form change" section of this page for ease of navigation. Could probably add a prominent link to that article in the lede of this one as well. Landfish7 21:21, 12 December 2025 (UTC)

I think that would be fine! As long as the mechanical information is easy to find and look for. Preferably the page with the mechanical information should be the main article, but that would probably depend on how they are to be named. I do think a renaming of either this one or both would have to be applied. TrainerSplash (talk) 03:05, 15 December 2025 (UTC)

Circling back to this, I will say that the general topic takes precedence as the main topic over a specific mechanic. I also still think "Pokémon fusion" is a fine generic descriptor for the title of the overview page, personally, since its been used in other cases such as with the Koffing and Beldum lines, and the page also explores the topic of Pokémon fusion in the fandom (which is currently not nearly detailed enough for its own page).

In short, I support splitting out the Pokémon fusion (mechanic) page, but I don't support moving the title of the current article. Landfish7 10:37, 15 May 2026 (UTC)
