List of Pokémon (102–151)

List of Pokémon (102–151)

Contents

Pokémon has 649 (as of Pokémon Black and White) distinctive fictional species classified as the titular Pokémon. These creatures and entities reside throughout various locations of the fictional Pokémon universe and can be caught by humans designated as Pokémon Trainers often using devices called Poké Balls. These trainers use Pokémon for a variety of purposes, such as being pets and loyal companions and/or being pitted against other trained Pokémon in competitive Pokémon battles. Pokémon are potentially super-powered creatures that can employ a variety of talents such as generating fire or heat, martial arts, telekinesis, and so on. Through age and experience many of these species undergo a metamorphosis and transform into a similar but stronger species in a process referred to as Pokémon evolution.

This is a selected listing of fifty of the Pokémon species, arranged as they are in the main game series' National Pokédex.

Exeggcute

Number: 102 Type: Grass/Psychic Evolves from: None Evolves into: Exeggutor

Exeggcute (タマタマ?, Tamatama), known as the Egg Pokémon, is a single Pokémon with six separate seed bodies (often mistaken for eggs, according to the Pokémon episode, "March of the Exeggutor Squad"). Exeggcute's name is a play on the word "execute". Tamatama could be taken to mean 偶々, unexpectedly, although it is more likely to be derived from 玉 tama, sphere, doubled. It is worth noting that the Japanese word for egg is 卵 tamago. They use telepathic signals only they can receive to remain in their balanced formation; even if one is separated, it will quickly rejoin its swarm. Each member of the swarm have a different appearance in number of cracks, deformations, personalities and expression. Some Exeggcute can have such severe cracking and breakage that a Yolk can be seen inside. The middle body often has the fewest or no cracks at all, and is assumed to be the boss of the group.

Exeggutor

Number: 103 Type: Grass/Psychic Evolves from: Exeggcute Evolves into: None

Exeggutor (ナッシー Nasshī?, Nassy), is known as the Coconut Pokémon. Its name is believed to be derived from the name of its previous evolutionary stage (Exeggcute), whose name is derived from egg and the word execute so Exeggutor's name is a combination of egg and executor. The Japanese name is derived from the words ココナッツ kokonattsu (coconuts) and 椰子 yashi (palm tree). A large Coconut Tree like Pokémon with three independent thinking heads. The heads are considered fruit or nuts and each has a different expression on its face similar to Exeggcute. When an Exeggcute evolves into Exeggutor, any and all cracks and breaks are mended as they turn yellow and combine to form the new Exeggutor. Living in a good environment will allow it to grow lots of heads, and it is said that they occasionally fall off to form new Exeggcute.

In an open forum interview with ABC News, Creatures Inc. founder Tsunekazu Ishihara noted Exeggutor as his favorite Pokémon, citing it was the Pokémon he used while debugging the games.[1]

Cubone

Number: 104 Type: Ground Evolves from: None Evolves into: Marowak

Marowak

Number: 105 Type: Ground Evolves from: Cubone Evolves into: None

Marowak (ガラガラ?, Garagara), known as the Bone Keeper Pokémon, is a portmanteau of marrow and whack (to strike), with "marrow" referring to the bone marrow within Marowak's skull-like head and wielded bone, and "whack" to represent Marowak's nature of striking its opponent with bones. Its Japanese name most likely refers to がらがら garagara, the onomatopoeia for "clattering," as in of bones.

A Marowak is, in essence, a larger, fiercer, more savage Cubone. Unlike its pre-evolutionary form, a Marowak's skull helmet is tightly fitted over its face, making removal more futile than it is with a Cubone. It's also more adept at using its bone club in attacks, and, most importantly, it no longer mourns over the loss of its mother, abandoning its plaintative and sorrowful spirit for one that can't be broken, no matter how many times it's been defeated. Where a Marowak collects its bones to use as weapons is a mystery, and, somewhere in the Pokémon world, there exists a graveyard where Marowaks are laid to rest.

In Pokémon Red and Blue, a strange, unidentifiable Ghost appears at the top of Pokémon tower in Lavender Town, a place where Pokémon are laid to rest. Upon the usage of a Silph Scope, the Ghost turns into a Marowak, presumably the one Team Rocket killed earlier in the game. It cannot be captured, and once defeated, its ghost is laid to rest. The Cubone in Mr. Fuji's house is often considered the offspring of this Marowak. In the later games, it can hold the item Thick Club, which doubles its physical attack power.

IGN noted that Marowak was a good choice for players early on in the game, calling it "decent".[2] IGN editor "Pokémon of the Day Chick" also praised Marowak, calling it a "fine specimen".[3] Loredana Lipperini, author of Generazione Pókemon: i bambini e l'invasione planetaria dei nuovi, discussed Marowak in a paragraph detailing death in the Pokémon world, calling its death in Red and Blue by the hands of Team Rocket as a notable exception to how a Pokémon would normally have a natural death.[4] A GamesRadar editor found it weird that Cubone was given the evolution of Marowak, since its mother was killed. They also theorized that Cubone was originally intended to evolve into Kangaskhan due to the similar physicality of Cubone and Kangaskhan. They also referenced a rumour that Missingno. was a Pokémon that was intended to tie all of them together.[5]

Hitmonlee

Number: 106 Type: Fighting Evolves from: Tyrogue Evolves into: None

Hitmonchan

Number: 107 Type: Fighting Evolves from: Tyrogue Evolves into: None

Lickitung

Number: 108 Type: Normal Evolves from: None Evolves into: Lickilicky

Koffing

Number: 109 Type: Poison Evolves from: None Evolves into: Weezing

Weezing

Number: 110 Type: Poison Evolves from: Koffing Evolves into: None

Rhyhorn

Number: 111 Type: Ground/Rock Evolves from: None Evolves into: Rhydon

Rhyhorn (サイホーン Saihōn?, Sihorn), known as the Spikes Pokémon, is a rhinoceros like Pokémon with a rock like hide consisting of plates. Rhyhorn stands on all four legs and evolves into Rhydon. Rhyhorn is a portmanteau of rhinoceros (which it resembles) and horn. Its spelling is also influenced by the rock rhyolite. Its Japanese name is a portmanteau of sai (?), meaning rhinoceros and hōn (ホーン?), meaning horn.

A Rhyhorn's most well known method of attack is to charge straight into things (which is all it can do as its short legs make it hard for it to turn left or right). A charging Rhyhorn can knock over anything, from trailers to skyscrapers. Its hide is 1000 times harder than human bones. Because they have a one-track mind, Rhyhorns are the prime example of having "more brawn than brains", as they often charge head first into things for little or no reason and often forget why they're charging in the first place. Once a Rhyhorn starts charging, it will not stop until it becomes tired and it doesn't care what (or who) gets in its way. As a testament to how slow-witted it is, a Rhyhorn will charge headlong into a block of steel and not feel any pain until the day after it hit the steel block.

In Gold, Silver, and Crystal, Brock uses a Rhyhorn to battle. There is also a Rhyhorn in the Brock Gym Leader set of the trading card game.

Rhydon

Number: 112 Type: Ground/Rock Evolves from: Rhyhorn Evolves into: Rhyperior

Rhydon (サイドン Saidon?, Sidon), known as the Drill Pokémon, is a large, gray, bipedal Pokémon with features of dinosaurs and rhinoceroses. Rhydon’s most famous feature is the cream-colored, drill-like horn on its snout, although there are other protrusions on the head as well. These include the front-pointing crest extending from the middle of its head, two triangular, ear-like features to the sides of the crest, a wavy-shaped, also ear-like extension further down its head, and the spiky ridges on the sides of its mouth. It has a long tail with skinny, black stripes. Rhydon has a cream-colored stomach and a ridged back.

Rhydon's drill-horn is capable of crushing uncut diamonds,[6] and it can knock down a building with one strike of its tail.[7] Rhydon's rocky hide is strong enough to withstand direct cannonball fire,[7] and serves as such effective protection that it makes Rhydon capable of living in molten lava up to 3,600 degrees.[8] However, its rugged hide also makes it insensitive.[9] Rhydon is apparently much smarter than its pre-evolution, evidenced by its ability to stand on its hind-legs.[10] Despite this, it is still very forgetful.

Rhydon's debut in the anime was in Showdown at Dark City, under the ownership of one of the trainers at Kas Gym. Rhydon's first major role was in Riddle Me This, being one of Blaine's Pokémon. Blaine used a Rhydon against Ash during the first battle for Ash's Volcano Badge. While normally tough against electric attacks, Rhydon was defeated when Ash's Pikachu struck Rhydon's horn, which acted like a lightning rod. Giovanni owns a Rhydon that he loaned to Jessie and James in The Battle of the Badge. Right on, Rhydon featured a Rhydon that knew how to use Surf. Rhydon also made a cameo appearance in Numero Uno Articuno as one of Noland's Pokémon.

In the Pokémon Adventures manga, Rhydon debuts in the in its own round, Raging Rhydon, as Koga's Pokémon that is forced to evolve by its trainer with a mysterious injection. Rhydon is later seen as one of Giovanni's Pokémon, but is not seen battling. Blue captures a Rhydon outside the Viridian Gym. He uses it to defeat Chuck, as well as Orm. Near the end of the FireRed and LeafGreen saga, Blue remarks on a footnote Giovanni included in his handbook: Rhydon possibly possessed a stronger form. This is a reference to Rhydon's new evolution, Rhyperior. Gold encounters a wild Rhydon during his race with Whitney. It was hunting down a Sudowoodo hiding from it, and kidnapped Whitney when she interfered with her Miltank, breaking her arm in the process. Gold tells Sudowoodo to stand up for itself and helps Sudowoodo defeat the Rhydon.

IGN listed him as one of the best Rock types alongside Aerodactyl and Golem. They described him as "rather strong," but also a Pokémon that only patient players would like.[11] IGN editor "Pokemon of the Day Chick" criticized Rhydon for its horrible typing, but stated "I quite frankly like Rhydon as a Pokemon", citing its "incredible physical stats".[12] GamesRadar described it as "strong, tough and slow as molasses", and called it bizarre due to it being able to learn Surf.[13]

Chansey

Number: 113 Type: Normal Evolves from: Happiny Evolves into: Blissey

Tangela

Number: 114 Type: Grass Evolves from: None Evolves into: Tangrowth

Tangela (モンジャラ?, Monjara), known as the Vine Pokémon, is a corrupted form of the word "tangle", which is both what it appears visually and what its vines often do to opponents. Its Japanese name comes from mojamoja (もじゃもじゃ?), which refers to shagginess. It is unknown what this Pokémon looks like underneath its vines, only its eyes and two feet are visible. If a vine is lost or damaged it will grow back the next day. The vines always jiggle, which easily unnerves its foes. In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, Tangela can evolve into a new Pokémon called Tangrowth. This happens when Tangela levels up after learning the move Ancientpower.

Tangela has made three major appearances in the anime. Gym Leader Erika used one against Ash's Pokémon in episode #26 (Pokémon Scent-sation). In Episode 227, For Ho-Oh the Bell Tolls, after Team Rocket steals a set of bells, Tangela fight to protect them alongside other Pokémon before Suicune restores order and calms them down. In episode #341, "Gulpin it Down", a police officer used a Tangela, along with Parasect and Meganium, against some troublesome Gulpin.

GameDaily ranked Tangela sixth on their list of the "Top 10 Weirdest Looking Pokémon", noting its vines more readily resembled worms, and its concealed "face".[14]

Kangaskhan

Number: 115 Type: Normal Does not evolve

Kangaskhan (ガルーラ Garūra?, Garura), known as the Parent Pokémon, is a combination of the word kangaroo and the name of the famous ruler of the Mongol Empire, Genghis Khan. Its Japanese name is derived from "kangaroo" (カンガルー kangarū?) and "ruler" (ルーラー rūrā?). Unlike real kangaroos, Kangaskhan do not hop, though they do have pouches in which they carry their infants. The infants don't leave the pouch until they are three years old. Kangaskhan is a female-only Pokémon. It will fight to protect its young, no matter how injured it is during the battle.

In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters Out Of The Gate!, Kangaskhan is dubbed an "aunt" and she gives Squirtle, Charmander and Chikorita red Pecha scarves and Corsola twigs as useful items. She has a son who is in her pouch and when he comes out, he utters with great support.

A theory exists that Cubone is the child of a dead Kangaskhan due to its similar appearance to it. GamesRadar's Carolyn Gudmundson supported this theory and thought that it was possible that some Pokémon species were mixed up and Kangaskhan was originally an evolution to Marowak. They also referenced a rumour that Missingno. was a Pokémon that was intended to tie all of them together. They also noted that it was odd that when a Kangaskhan is born in the video games, it has a baby in its pouch. Kangaskhan was also chosen as their Pokémon of the week though Gudmundson noted that she would never use it and found it creepy that its baby never grew up. Another GamesRadar editor found its name to be a pun of Genghis Khan, but decided that it was based on a kangaroo after another person told him that.[5]

Horsea

Number: 116 Type: Water Evolves from: None Evolves into: Seadra

Horsea (タッツー?, Tattu), known as the Dragon Pokémon, is a small, light blue seahorse with tiny scales. Its belly and fin are cream colored. Its tail is always curled up tightly,[15] and it has a single fin on its back that is used for locomotion in the water. If they sense trouble, they spit ink towards the instigator.[16] If the enemy is too strong, it quickly swims to safety.[17] Horsea also spit ink to shoot down flying bugs for food.[18] It has developed fins allow it to swim backwards when needed.[19] When they are in a safe location, they can be seen playfully tangling their tails together.[20] Horsea like swimming around, making them adept in using their fin. If the ocean current turns fast, however, Horsea will anchor itself by wrapping its tail around rocks or coral to prevent being washed away.[21] Horsea makes its nest in shady coral reefs,[22] and eats small insects and moss off of rocks.[21]

In the anime, Misty noticed an injured Horsea in the coast, and caught it. Horsea has trouble functioning on land, so she didn't use it much in her adventures. However, when it was used, it tended to be very resourceful – using ink to draw pictures or leave trails. Near the end of the Kanto adventures, Horsea was feeling ill because Misty wasn't letting it out enough to get any exercise. With no ocean nearby, Misty decided to take it home to Cerulean City, where it could play and swim in her Gym's many aquariums. In the Pokémon Adventures manga, Green had a Horsea on her team, using it in her crafty tricks such as cloaking areas with SmokeScreen or leaving ink trails. It was later transferred to Silver, and eventually evolved into Kingdra.

Seadra

Number: 117 Type: Water Evolves from: Horsea Evolves into: Kingdra

Seadra (シードラ Shīdora?), known as the Dragon Pokémon, is a primarily blue sea horse Pokémon. It has a long snout and a number of spikes on its head, to the sides and on the top. Its torso is covered with rough, cream-colored scales. Seadra's pectoral fins have sharp, pointed, cream-colored tips from which it exudes venom.[23] It also has a large tail which is generally coiled up. Seadra can swim facing backwards by rapidly flapping its fins and its coiled tail.[24] Seadra hook their tail to coral reefs before sleeping to stay in place.[25] Seadra catches its prey by spinning its body to create large whirlpools which tire its foes. Seadra will then swallow the victim whole using its long snout.[26] After the female Seadra gives birth, the male Seadra will take care of the young and its nest. It will attack those who venture too near to its children.[27] It can be found in Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh.

In the anime, Ash battled a Seadra in his first battle in the Indigo League. Cissy used a Seadra while Ash was participating in her target test in Fit to be Tide. A Seadra was one of the Pokémon that were captured and cloned by Mewtwo in Mewtwo Strikes Back. The Seadra clone is seen again in Mewtwo Returns. Juan, the leader of the Sootopolis Gym, also owns a Seadra. In the Pokémon Adventures manga, Silver had a Seadra as a part of his team, although it was not shown. During the events of Volume 9, Silver secretly sends Seadra to Gold via trade for his Poliwhirl, triggering Seadra's evolution into Kingdra.

Goldeen

Number: 118 Type: Water Evolves from: None Evolves into: Seaking

Seaking

Number: 119 Type: Water Evolves from: Goldeen Evolves into: None

Seaking (アズマオウ Azumaō?, Azumao), known as the Goldfish Pokémon, resembles a koi or goldfish, as it is a big orange colored fish with white and black markings. It also has a horn on its head that is sharp like a drill,[28] two big dark eyes, and pink lips with two small, sharp fangs. In the spawning season, they gather from all over to travel upriver,[29] which colors the rivers a brilliant red.[30] During this time, the Seaking males can be seen performing their courtship dances to woo Seaking females.[31] The male also uses its powerful horn to bore holes in riverbed boulders, so as to keep the eggs safe,[32] although in other seasons it will make and live in their own nests. The male and female will take turns patrolling around their nest and eggs, and the guarding of eggs by the Seaking goes on for over a month until the eggs hatch.[33] Seaking was originally called Neptune in the beta, after the Roman god of the sea.

Seaking was featured as an Internet meme sarcastically depicting an angry Seaking with the caption "Fuck yeah, Seaking!".[34] Bitmob's Chas Guidry wrote that its Dream World incarnation would cause the meme to "lose its punchline" due to its ability to resist Electric attacks. He added that this new ability is giving "some of the attention he's longed for since 1996."[34] IGN gave the same criticism it gave Goldeen to Seaking though they added that it had a decent attack boost. They also wrote that while it was a little better than Wartortle, Seaking evolved too late, around where Wartortle would evolve into Blastoise.[35] IGN's Pokémon Chick criticized Seaking for both being a disappointing evolution compared to the evolution from Magikarp to Gyarados and for being "unimaginative in terms of both looks".[36]

Staryu

Number: 120 Type: Water Evolves from: None Evolves into: Starmie

Starmie

Number: 121 Type: Water/Psychic Evolves from: Staryu Evolves into: None

Jynx

Number: 124 Type: Ice/Psychic Evolves from: Smoochum Evolves into: None

Electabuzz

Number: 125 Type: Electric Evolves from: Elekid Evolves into: Electivire

Electabuzz (エレブー Erebu?, Eleboo), known as the Electric Pokémon, is a slightly humanoid and partly feline creature covered in yellow fur with black stripes, one of which is shaped like a lightning bolt. It has a long, cat-like tail. The three toes on Electabuzz's feet are arranged like that of a bird's foot, but its hands have a human appearance, with five fingers on each hand. Electabuzz has two sharp fangs and a pair of antennae. When it is dark out, Electabuzz's entire body gives off a bluish-white glow.[37] During thunderstorms, they compete with each other to reach heights likely to be stricken by lightning bolts.[38] When two Electabuzz meet, they communicate their feelings by touching and controlling the electric currents.[39] Electabuzz normally reside in power plants, as they use the electricity to feed themselves,[40] and can sometimes wander into cities and cause major black-outs.[41]

Electabuzz gains a pre evolved from, Elekid, in Pokémon Gold and Silver, and an evolution, Electivire, in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. A promotional Electabuzz TCG card was handed out at theatrical showings of Pokémon: The First Movie.

Electabuzz first appeared in the anime in Showdown at Dark City. It is the Kas Gym's primary Pokémon and was used in the feuds that the Kas and Yas Gyms were having. Rudy, the Trovita Island Gym Leader, used an Electabuzz against Ash's Pikachu during their Gym Battle in Misty Meets Her Match. In Enter The Dragonite, Drake, the leader of the Orange Crew, used his Electabuzz to fight Bulbasaur and Charizard. Drake's Electabuzz defeated Ash's Bulbasaur before being defeated by Ash's Charizard. In Smells Like Team Spirit, Paul's Elekid evolves into Electabuzz in the Tag Battle Competition. In Lost Leader Strategy! it was revealed that Paul had left his Electabuzz under the care of his brother, Reggie. It then returned to Paul's team after the events of Enter Galactic!.

In Pokémon Adventures Electabuzz debuts in its own round, Buzz Off, Electabuzz!, as the main Pokémon of Lt. Surge.

Magmar

Number: 126 Type: Fire Evolves from: Magby Evolves into: Magmortar

Pinsir

Number: 127 Type: Bug Does not evolve

Pinsir (カイロス Kairosu?, Kailios), known as the Stag Beetle Pokémon, has a brown body with a large pair of white horns that are dotted with small spikes. Pinsir has short legs with three toes each and skinny, three-clawed arms. Its mouth has long, flat teeth that are arranged vertically rather than horizontally. Pinsir is cold-blooded. Pinsir's horns have enough crushing power to shatter thick logs and allow it to lift things twice its own weight.[42]

Pinsir's movements are more sluggish when exposed to cold weather, so they hide in burrows, treetops or tree roots during chilly nights.[43] Pinsir are known to dig holes with their horns to sleep in.[44] Pinsir are mostly found in jungle-like areas, but have also been imported into Kanto's Safari Zone and the National Park of Johto during bug-contests. Sinnoh also offers a good habitat for them. Pinsir eats prey, gripping it with its pincers until the prey is torn in half. If it fails to crush the victim in its pincers, it will swing it around and toss it hard.[45]

Pinsir is a rare Pokémon found in every main series game except for Red, FireRed, and Diamond, being a version exclusive. In Pokémon Stadium 2, Pinsir stars in its own minigame, alongside Scyther called "Clear Cut Challenge". Players must cut a tree trunk where a white line appears, getting more points for accuracy.[46] In the anime, Pinsir first appeared in Challenge of the Samurai, in which a samurai used it to battle against Ash. In A Sappy Ending, Pinsir were being driven into a forest that was Heracross territory because Team Rocket was stealing the sap from the trees that were in their territory. Pinsir also has many minor appearances, such as in Mewtwo Strikes Back, being used to battle Ash's Pikachu.

GamesRadar listed Pinsir on their list of "The most disturbing Pokemon of all time", citing the violent way it deals with its prey.[47]

Tauros

Number: 128 Type: Normal Does not evolve

Tauros (ケンタロス Kentarosu?, Kentauros) is a bull known for its violent urges and rowdy, aggressive disposition in general, as supplied by a tremendous amount of natural stamina. Any given Tauros finds it impossible to keep up its spirits in life without near-constant rampaging. It always tries to find opponent Pokémon to battle outright to serve this purpose, but if it is alone, it will instead concentrate on charging at and knocking down thick trees to calm itself. By locking horns with other Tauros, it fights to assert dominance in a herd. The protector of the herd is usually noted by battle torn horns. As Tauros is based on a bull, it is a male-only Pokémon; its female equivalent is the more cowlike Miltank.

Tauros has a special habit that specifically affects its ability to battle, both in the wild and in trainer-directed Pokémon battles: It whips itself with its three long snapping tails. When it targets an enemy, it heightens its will to battle by whipping its own backside with its tails before charging at full speed.

Tauros is based on the zodiac horoscope Taurus. Taurus is the third of the zodiac horoscopes, which is the reason why the Pokémon Tauros has three tails and three orbs on its forehead.[citation needed]

In the anime, Ash Ketchum captures a herd of thirty Tauros in the Safari Zone (though the episode which features this was banned in America due to its flagrant gun use and politically incorrect humor). They usually remain in Professor Oak's fields, Ash occasionally picks one up for various tournaments or important battles.

IGN listed Tauros as one of the best Normal types, calling it the most underrated Pokémon in the game.[11]

Magikarp

Number: 129 Type: Water Evolves from: None Evolves into: Gyarados

Gyarados

Number: 130 Type: Water/Flying Evolves from: Magikarp Evolves into: None

Lapras

Number: 131 Type: Water/Ice Does not evolve

Ditto

Number: 132 Type: Normal Does not evolve

Eevee

Number: 133 Type: Normal Evolves from: None Evolves into: Vaporeon, Jolteon, Flareon, Espeon, Umbreon, Leafeon, or Glaceon

Eevee can evolve into seven different forms, depending on how you raise it. Eevee can evolve into Vaporeon, Jolteon, Flareon, Espeon, Umbreon, Leafeon, or Glaceon.

Vaporeon

Number: 134 Type: Water Evolves from: Eevee with Water Stone Evolves into: None

Vaporeon (シャワーズ Shawāzu?, Showers), known as the Bubble Jet Pokémon, is one of the evolutions of Eevee that is caused by radiation from a Water Stone. Vaporeon's body is light-blue and has a white collar; it has yellow ears made of webbing and a fin on its head resembling ears, and a pointed pattern of dark blue on its head that encompasses the backs of its ears and head-fin. It also has blue ridges that run down the length of its spine and on to its tail-fin, and the paw pads on its hind feet are dark blue like the ridges.

Vaporeon's molecular structure is close to water,[48] and because of this, Vaporeon are highly adapted to aquatic life. It can manipulate water molecules,[49] melt into water,[48] walk on water, and breathe underwater. Many people who first see this Pokémon believe it is a mermaid.[50] When Vaporeon's fins begin to vibrate, it is said to be a sign that rain will come within a few hours.[51] Vaporeon are always found close to water, and prefer large, clean lakes.[50]

Vaporeon first appeared in the anime in The Battling Eevee Brothers, under the ownership of Rainer.[52] Vaporeon was also seen under the ownership of one the Kimono Sisters in Trouble's Brewing and Espeon Not Included. An old woman named Galea owned a Vaporeon in On Olden Pond.Vaporeon was also shown in Pokémon: The First Movie and later got cloned. In the Pokémon Adventures manga, Red temporarily controlled a Vaporeon, which was switching between Eevee's evolved forms.

Jolteon

Number: 135 Type: Electric Evolves from: Eevee with Thunderstone Evolves into: None

Jolteon (サンダース Sandāsu?, Thunders), known as the Lightning Pokémon, is one of the evolutions of Eevee that is caused by radiation from a Thunderstone. Jolteon is covered with spiky, bright yellow fur, with white spiky fur surrounding its neck. Its fur sparks with electricity constantly; it can be soft to the touch or turn into sharp needles that can be fired when it is angered.[53] Jolteon is able to gather negative ions from the atmosphere, using the resulting electricity to create lightning bolts of up to 10,000 volts.[54] Its individual cells also create small electrical charges on their own, which can result in powerful electric-type attacks.[55] It is very sensitive, which causes it to constantly charge as it quickly changes moods.[56]

Jolteon first appeared in the anime in The Battling Eevee Brothers, under the ownership of Sparky.[52] In Get Along, Little Pokémon, Ethan used a Jolteon as a sheep dog of sorts. Whenever any of Ethan's Magnemite tried to escape, Jolteon would use Thunder Wave to lure them back. Jolteon was also seen under the ownership of one of the Kimono Sisters in Trouble's Brewing and Espeon Not Included. In the Pokémon Adventures manga, Red temporarily controls a Jolteon, which is actually his Eevee switching between its evolved forms.

IGN called Jolteon one of the best Electric types, alongisde Zapdos, commenting that it is the best Eevee evolution "hands down."[11]

Flareon

Number: 136 Type: Fire Evolves from: Eevee with Fire Stone Evolves into: None

Flareon (ブースター Būsutā?, Booster), known as the Flame Pokémon. Flareon is the result of an Eevee being exposed to a Fire Stone. Flareon's body is covered in red fur. Flareon has a large, bushy tail, fluffy collar and a tuft of fur on its head; all of which are yellow. Flareon has a flame sac in its body,[57] and can also shoot powerful flames that have been known to reach a maximum of 3,100 degrees Fahrenheit.[58] Flareon fluffs out its fur collar to cool down its body temperature, which can reach 1,650 degrees.[59]

Flareon first appeared in the anime in The Battling Eevee Brothers, under the ownership of Pyro.[52] Flareon was seen under the ownership of one of the Kimono Sisters in Trouble's Brewing and Espeon Not Included. A Fire Pokémon trainer named Egan used one to capture a Magcargo in Some Like it Hot. A Pokémon Coordinator, Savannah, that was going to enter the Rustboro City Pokémon Contest has a Flareon, which appeared in A Fan with a Plan. In the Pokémon Adventures manga, Red temporarily controls a Flareon, which is actually his Eevee switching between its evolved forms.

A GamesRadar staff member stated that there were better Fire type Pokémon to choose from than Flareon, a sentiment another GamesRadar staff member shared.[5]

Porygon

Number: 137 Type: Normal Evolves from: None Evolves into: Porygon2

Porygon (ポリゴン Porigon?) is the first man-made Pokémon, the product of extensive research by Silph Co. It consists entirely of programming code, allowing it to convert itself entirely back to program data. This allows it to move freely in cyberspace. This code is copy protected in order to prevent duplication. This code is fairly restrictive, limiting Porygon to certain pre-programmed motions, actions, and reactions. As it does not need to breathe, it is used in various environments, even some normally considered inhospitable.

In the video games, Porygon is only available as a prize from slot machines. As a result, a large number of people have taken to playing the slots seeking to win a Porygon. These gamblers are especially visible in the towns of Kanto and Johto. Porygon are not available in Hoenn at all. However, Porygon actually run wild in Mr. Backlot's Trophy Garden, found in Sinnoh. The reason for this is that Mr. Backlot, the owner, is so proud of his Trophy Garden that he will often brag about certain Pokémon (like Porygon) living there when they don't. In response to this, his loyal butler actually searches for these Pokémon and releases them into the garden. Porygon is cheaper to obtain in some games than in others.

Porygon makes several cameo appearances in the Super Smash Bros. series of crossover fighting games. Porygon first appears in Super Smash Bros. as one of the five Pokémon that appears from the door on the Saffron City stage, and later appears in one stage of Super Smash Bros. Melee as a moving platform. Porygon's most significant appearance in the Pokémon anime to date is "Dennō Senshi Porygon", an episode notorious for having caused hundreds of children in Japan to have epileptic seizures[60] during its initial broadcast in 1997. Following subsequent public outcry, the anime went on a hiatus and was almost cancelled. Even though Pikachu's Thunderbolt attack caused the 'seizure attack', Porygon and its evolved forms Porygon2 and Porygon-Z have never been featured prominently in any Pokémon episodes or films since.

GamesRadar described Porygon as "outdated as Nintendo 64 graphics" due to its subsequent evolutions.[61] IGN described its evolutions as appearing "much more smoother and lifelike" than its initial design.[62]

Omanyte

Number: 138 Type: Rock/Water Evolves from: None Evolves into: Omastar

Omanyte (オムナイト Omunaito?, Omnite) is a Pokémon that is long extinct. Some can be revived using Helix fossils, and a small number have been shown to be in deep hibernation. It lives in the deep in the primordial sea where it navigates by twisting its ten tentacles, and uses air in its shell to rise and sink. It eats plankton off of the sea floor, and withdraws into its shell to escape harm. Omanyte is based on the ammonite a creature which resembles it, and sounds similar in name.

Omastar

Number: 139 Type: Rock/Water Evolves from: Omanyte Evolves into: None

Omastar (オムスター Omusutā?, Omstar) is the evolution of Omanyte. Omastar went extinct due to its heavy shell making it too sluggish to capture prey despite the fact that its ability is "swift swim". When it does capture prey, it uses its tentacles, which developed similarly to hands and feet, to hold its prey, and tear at it with its fangs within the mouth. If met with molluscs, such as Shellder, it cracks the shell and sucks on the toes. Its appearance seems to be based on the ammonite, an extinct cephalopod that resembles a Chambered Nautilus.

Kabuto

Number: 140 Type: Rock/Water Evolves from: None Evolves into: Kabutops

Kabuto (カブト?) is an extinct Pokémon that can be revived through Dome fossils, though some living examples have been found. It seems to be based on a trilobite. Remaining unchanged for 300 million years, it is an aquatic Pokémon that dances on the sea floor, which is how some Kabuto became fossils in the first place. While concealed, Kabuto leaves exposed only its hard shell, which protects it from predators, while the small black eyes on its back allow it to continue monitoring its surroundings. If it is flipped upside down, it becomes helpless and defenseless as it is unable to flip over on its own. According to the anime, oil extracted from a Kabuto is rumored to have interesting medical properties, longevity being one of them. The word "kabuto" is a type of helmet or a rhinoceros beetle[citation needed], which possibly refers to the Pokémon as an arthropod.

Kabutops

Number: 141 Type: Rock/Water Evolves from: Kabuto (Lv.40) Evolves into: None

Kabutops (カブトプス Kabutopusu?), known as the Shellfish Pokémon, is the evolved form of Kabuto. Kabutops is loosely based on trilobites as a counterpoint to Omanyte and Omastar representing ammonites. This can clearly be seen with the enlarged cephalon and the pygidium and thoracic spines. It was introduced in Pokémon Red and Blue, where the player-character plays a part in reviving the assumed-extinct species by giving a Fossil to the Scientist on Cinnabar Island.

Kabuto's four insect-like legs have vanished and two long feet stand in their place. Two long sharp claws (or sickles) extend from Kabutops's exoskeleton and several plates close the opening that used to be there. There are six hard spikes going down from the back of its neck, three on each side that lead down towards the beginning of its tail. Its head is covered in a rock hard, semicircular shape armor. A tail protrudes from its back, bearing the same color as approximately seventy-five percent of its body. Its gills have also begun to change to make it land compatible. Kabutops lives in the water, and its sleek body enables it to swim faster by tucking in its limbs, folding up its claw-like sickles and wiggling.[63] The creature comes out of the water to hunt. Kabutops is a predator, but its nature of feeding is vampiric; instead of killing its prey, it uses its razor sharp claws to open wounds in its prey, and then drink its blood.[64] Adaptations in its body permit it to lead a more terrestrial lifestyle than its predecessors. It is also very adaptive as shown when its prey started living on land so Kabutops adapted to living on land as well.[65]

Dratini

Number: 147 Type: Dragon Evolves from: None Evolves into: Dragonair (Lv.30)

Dratini (Miniryu ミニリュウ?, Miniryū), known as the Dragon Pokémon, is a serpent-like dragon Pokémon with a white circle shape on its forehead. Dratini inhabit lakes and rivers. They possess fins on the sides of their heads, which grow to be enormous as it evolves, as well as a large, round silver nose on their face. They are constantly growing, and can become quite long. As they grow, they shed their delicate deep blue skin. They have a massive amount of energy rapidly increasing inside of their bodies,[66] hence, they have great strength which grows exponentially as they evolve. They live in colonies in the ocean in limited numbers[67] and fetch a high price as Pokémon to be used for battling. They can only be obtained by the most determined and skilled trainers.

The episode in which Dratini first appeared The Legend of Dratini has never been seen on American television, due to use of guns and humor considered "politically incorrect" to American audiences (e.g. Jessie seducing a guard by dressing up as a schoolgirl). Because of the episode's ban, continuity errors were made apparent about the herd of Tauros Ash captured in the episode. Footage from the episode can be seen during the Pokérap when showing Pokémon featured in the episode.

IGN described Dratini as an “adorable baby water dragon”.[68] Destructoid's Jim Sterling wrote that Dragonite's design was disappointing after Dratini and Dragonair's which he called "awesome".[69] Author Ash Dekirk described Dratini as a "sleek sea serpent" and an example of a Pokémon that is based on dragons.[70]

Dragonair

Number: 148 Type: Dragon Evolves from: Dratini (Lv.30) Evolves into: Dragonite (Lv.55)

Dragonair (Hakuryu ハクリュー?, Hakuryū), known as the Dragon Pokémon, is the evolved form of Dratini. Dragonair are long, serpentine Pokémon that can be up to 13 feet long. They have dark, glossy eyes and a small, unicorn-like horn on their foreheads. On either side of their heads are small feathery wings. Dragonair are covered in sapphire-blue scales, except for their bellies, which are a bright white. A feature unique to Dragonair are the small blue orbs that appear under their necks and on the ends of their tails.[71] Dragonair give out a distinct, gentle aura that can be felt by humans.[72] Many people have also seen these Pokémon flying, even though they have no wings, except for the small wings on their head.[73] Dragonair also host a large amount of energy within their bodies which they discharge from their crystals, allowing them to change the weather.[74] Dragonair's orb can be used as a source of light. Dragonair have the ability to shed their skin, ridding their bodies of unwanted ailments.

In the games, Clair owns multiple Dragonair. Dragonair first appeared in the anime in the banned episode, The Legend of Dratini, as a Dratini the warden of the Safari Zone was protecting, which evolved later in the episode. Clair had a Dratini that evolved into a Dragonair. In the Pokémon Adventures manga, Lance owns two Dragonair, one caught previously, the other stolen and brainwashed, and was supposed to be a prize in a Surfing contest.

IGN's Pokémon Chick wrote that while middle forms of Pokémon are typically “ugly”, Dragonair was the exception. She described it as “one of the single most gorgeous Pokémon in existence” and one of her “very favorite Pokémon”.[75] IGN's Jack DeVries called it a “giant girly snake”.[76] Destructoid's Jim Sterling wrote that Dragonite's design was disappointing after Dratini and Dragonair's which he called "awesome".[69] Author Ash Dekirk described Dragonair as a "sleek sea serpent" and an example of a Pokémon that is based on dragons.[70]
