Design and development

Pokémon are fictional species created for the Pokémon franchise. Developed by Game Freak and published by Nintendo, the series began in Japan in 1996 with the release of the video games Pokémon Red and Blue for the Game Boy.^[1] In these games, the player assumes the role of a Pokémon Trainer whose goal is to capture and train creatures called Pokémon. Players use the creatures' special abilities to combat other Pokémon, and some can transform into stronger species through a process called evolution.^[2] Pokémon also have various types, which are elemental attributes that determine a Pokémon's strengths and weaknesses in combat.^[3]

List of Pokémon species introduced in Generation IV (2006)^{[nb 1]}

Name^[nb 2]	Type(s)		Evolves from	Evolves into	Notes
Turtwig Naetoru (ナエトル)^[5] (0387)		Grass	—	Grotle (#388)	Its shell is made from hardened soil, and it hardens even more when it drinks water. On a very healthy Turtwig, its shell should feel slightly damp and warm to the touch. It uses photosynthesis across its whole body, making oxygen in the process. If it is thirsty, the leaves on its head start to wilt. It becomes more energetic the more sunlight there is.
Grotle Hayashigame (ハヤシガメ)^[6] (0388)		Grass	Turtwig (#387)	Torterra (#389)	It lives along water in the forest and it sometimes leaves the forest to sunbathe. Its shell is hardened soil, though sometimes bird Pokémon like to live on its back and peck at the berries growing on it. The fruit that grows on the shrubs on its shell is sweet, nutritious, and truly delicious. They say each Grotle that lives in the forest has its own secret springwater since they know where pure water wells up at.
Torterra Dodaitosu (ドダイトス)^[7] (0389)		Grass / Ground	Grotle (#388)	—	It appears to be based on Ankylosaurus, but it is actually a turtle, and it is also based on the common myth of the World Turtle. Occasionally, small Pokémon gather in the tree on its back and spend their whole life there. Groups of migrating Torterra have been mistaken as moving forests. Ancient people believed that underneath the earth, a large Torterra dwelled. Some say it would serve beautifully as garden scenery and its strength is immense. It roams the wilderness in search of clean, fresh water to drink.
Chimchar Hikozaru (ヒコザル)^[8] (0390)		Fire	—	Monferno (#391)	Chimchar has fire coming out of its rear-end.^[9] It produces gas in its belly that creates the fire, even rain cannot put it out.

Infernape Gōkazaru (ゴウカザル)^[11] (0392)		Fire / Fighting	Monferno (#391)	—	Infernape is based on the Monkey King, Sun Wukong. Its martial arts are unmatched in terms of skill. Its a tall and very hardy Pokémon that shrouds itself in a flame as if it is dancing.
Piplup Potchama (ポッチャマ)^[6] (0393)		Water	—	Prinplup (#394)	It is a proud Pokémon, and because of this, it hates accepting food from people and it will not easily listen to its trainer, so bonding and caring for it will be really tough. It is a great swimmer, yet a poor walker, as it can dive for up to 10 minutes just to hunt but it also falls down on land a lot too. It lives in cold climates in Northern countries and its thick guard protects it from the cold. Piplup plays a prominent role in the anime as the Pokémon partner of Dawn.
Prinplup Pottaishi (ポッタイシ)^[11] (0394)		Water	Piplup (#393)	Empoleon (#395)	It tends to live alone, and because every one of them believes it is the most important, they can never form a group. Its wings are really strong, delivering wicked blows that can snap even the thickest of trees. It gracefully glides though the seas as it searches for prey in icy climates.
Empoleon Enperuto (エンペルト)^[6] (0395)		Water / Steel	Prinplup (#394)	—	Empoleon is based on an emperor penguin and Napoleon. Its English name is likely a combination of "emperor" and "Napoleon", though it may also take from "south pole". Its Japanese name is likely derived from "emperor" and "Bonaparte", Napoleon's surname. Its three horns that extend from its head attest to its power. The one with the biggest horns is the leader. It usually avoids unnecessary conflict, yet if anything were to hurt its pride, it will slash them with wings so sharp, it could cleave through an ice flow as it swims as fast as a jet boat. Since ancient times, it was feared and named the "Master of the Waves". Its wings are a match for even master crafted blades.
Starly Mukkuru (ムックル)^[6] (0396)		Normal / Flying	—	Staravia (#397)	Starly and its evolutions are based on grey starlings. Starly can be quite noisy, especially in a flock. Even when small, their wings are powerful, getting hit by one will leave you sore for a week.

It stays within a huge flock, though they often fight among themselves. Some people say that the larger the plume on Staravia's head, the stronger it is
Staraptor Mukuhōku (ムクホーク)^[12] (0398)		Normal / Flying	Staravia (#397)	—	When Staravia evolve into Staraptor, they go solitary for the rest of their life. Because of how strong their wings are, the can carry very large prey.
Bidoof Bippa (ビッパ)^[13] (0399)		Normal	—	Bibarel (#400)	Bidoof is based on beavers and gophers, likely the mountain beaver specifically due to its lack of a tail. Bidoof's English name is likely derived from "beaver" and "doofus", slang for "stupid person". It is also possible that part of the name is derived from "shadoof", which is a device used to irrigate water. Its Japanese name may be taken from "beaver", and "deppa" (出っ歯), meaning "protruding tooth". With nerves of steel, nothing can perturb it. It is more agile and active than it appears. It constantly gnaws on logs and rocks to whittle down its front teeth. It nests alongside the water. There have been incidents involving Bidoof sauntering into villages and gnawing on the houses without a single care. A comparison revealed that Bidoof's front teeth grow at the same rate as Rattata's.
Bibarel Bīdaru (ビーダル)^[13] (0400)		Normal / Water	Bidoof (#399)	—	People in factories love to work with Bibarel because of its reliability.

Budew Subomī (スボミー)^[15] (0406)		Grass / Poison	—	Roselia (#315)	Over the winter, Budew closes its bud, only to open it up in spring and release toxic pollen into the air that can bring sneezing and runny noses. Living along clear ponds, it is really sensitive to temperature as the bud is said to open when it feels the warm sun's touch. If its bud starts to open, it means spring is right around the corner, and if it is raised alongside clean water, the toxicity of its poison will increase.
Roserade Rozureido (ロズレイド)^[11] (0407)		Grass / Poison	Roselia (#315)	—	With movements like a dancer, Roserade attracts prey with a sweet smelling aroma, and then finishes them off with its whips which are densely lined with toxic thorns. Each hand contains a different type of poison. One is fast acting poison, and one is slow acting poison, and while it can jab with near-fatal power, both are really deadly. The sweeter the aroma, the more toxic it is.

Some people would call it one of the worst Pokémon designs, but those people have obviously never kicked the crap out of the elite four with a balloon."^[38] Andrew Webster of The Verge claimed that Drifloon is the best Pokémon of all time, stating that "Drifloon is a classic example of how deceptive appearances can be."^[39]

Though it is merciless by nature, as it is said that it never forgives the mistakes of its Murkrow followers.

Lickilicky Beroberuto (ベロベルト)^[50] (0463)		Normal	Lickitung (#108)	—	Its long, adept, saliva covered tongue will leave you drenched in drool if you go near it. The problem is, its saliva has a very powerful acid that is able to dissolve pretty much anything. It has a space in its throat to store either saliva or its tongue. Contests are held to see how far one's Lickilicky can stretch its tongue, and the current record is more than 82 feet long. It is so skilled with its tongue, it can pick up a small little bean easily. Its hands and feet are rather clumsy compared to its tongue.
Rhyperior Dosaidon (ドサイドン)^[6] (0464)		Ground / Rock	Rhydon (#112)	—	Its carapace is so tough that it can withstand sword strikes from master swordsman, volcanic eruptions, and even lava to a certain point.
Tangrowth Mojanbo (モジャンボ)^[10] (0465)		Grass	Tangela (#114)	—	If a foe eats part of its arm or vines, It is alright with it because in the summer its vines grow so much, that you can't even see its eyes. It looks like a shrub in appearance and can hide like one. It ensnares its prey with its long, wrapping vines.
Electivire Erekiburu (エレキブル)^[51] (0466)		Electric	Electabuzz (#125)	—	Electivire is so powerful that it can power a big city for a whole year.
Magmortar Būbān (ブーバーン)^[11] (0467)		Fire	Magmar (#126)	—	If Magmortar uses its arm too much (used for firing fireballs) it could partially melt its arm. When hunting, it avoids this method and just roasts them.
Togekiss Togekissu (トゲキッス)^[52] (0468)		Fairy^[nb 6] / Flying	Togetic (#176)	—	It will not appear where there is violence in the world, but appears where pure people live. Not many people have seen it much.
Yanmega Megayanma (メガヤンマ)^[8] (0469)		Bug / Flying	Yanma (#193)	—	Its long tail helps it balance itself when carrying something as big as an adult human. Its extremely violent, it will waste no time or energy going straight for its prey's most vital openings. Training this Pokémon will require a lot of bravery.
Leafeon Rīfia (リーフィア)^[53] (0470)		Grass	Eevee (#133)	—	It likes clean air because it uses photosynthesis just like a plant. It is not one to fight, but if it has to, it can sharpen its tail like a sword and its sharp enough to cut large trees. Galarian people favor the distinctive aroma that drifts from this Pokémon's leaves. There's a popular perfume made using that scent. Its cells are found to be just like plants too. The younger they are, the more they smell like fresh grass. With age, their fragrance takes on the odor of fallen leaves.
Glaceon Gureishia (グレイシア)^[10] (0471)		Ice	Eevee (#133)	—	It can freeze the moisture into ice and fire it and it can drop its body temperature below -75 °F if it needs to. It can cause snow to form in the air, so it is quite popular in ski resorts.
Gliscor Guraion (グライオン)^[10] (0472)		Ground / Flying	Gligar (#207)	—	It observes prey while hanging upside down from branches, and when the chance comes, it swoops. Its flight is soundless, and when catching prey, its long tail picks them up and its elongated fangs do the rest. If it surprises prey, it can land a critical hit in an instant. After it drains them of their blood, it takes on a look of satisfaction. If it succeeds in catching even the slightest breeze, it can circle the globe without flapping its wings once.
Mamoswine Manmū (マンムー)^[10] (0473)		Ice / Ground	Piloswine (#221)	—	Its population thinned after the earth warmed up because its twin tusks are which are made of ice.
Porygon-Z Porigon Z (ポリゴンZ)^[14] (0474)		Normal	Porygon2 (#233)	—	It has not appeared in the anime due to the episode "Dennō Senshi Porygon," which caused Japanese children to have seizures in 1997. Additional software was installed in it, hoping to make it better. However it began acting really strange. The developer of the bizarre disc that was used might have had some bugs. It was modified to allow it to travel through alien dimensions, though it didn't work as planned. Not even academics really know if Porygon-Z can truly be considered an evolution.
Gallade Erureido (エルレイド)^[11] (0475)		Psychic / Fighting	Kirlia (#281)	Mega Evolution	This male-only Pokémon, along with Gardevoir, seem to be a current relative to Iron Valiant. True to its honorable warrior image, it is a master of courtesy and swordsmanship, and it can extend its elbows into blades and fight savagely, but it usually does this to protect something or someone. Because it can sense what its foe is thinking, its attacks burst out first, fast, and fierce. Sharply attuned to others' wishes for help, this Pokémon seeks out those in need and aids them in battle. The blades extending from its elbows are sharper than the finest swords. Its swordsmanship, albeit self-taught, is astonishingly impressive. It evolves from Kirlia using a Dawn Stone.
Probopass Dainōzu (ダイノーズ)^[13] (0476)		Rock / Steel	Nosepass (#299)	—	It controls its three "mini-noses" at its sides to attack or hunt for food, but sometimes it could lose them if its not careful.

Froslass Yukimenoko (ユキメノコ)^[13] (0478)		Ice / Ghost	Snorunt (#361)	—	It is a female-only Pokémon whose design is inspired by the Japanese yōkai Yuki-onna, a vengeful spirit that takes the form of a woman and traps its victims with its icy breath or within blizzards.^[54] If you are inside your house (and trapped in a blizzard), you should always try to be careful. When you hear a knocking at your door, always check before you answer because it might be a wild Froslass, which can surprisingly freeze you to death instantly if you are not careful.
