Ursula's Gabite (Japanese: ウララのガバイト Urara's Gabite) is Ursula's main Pokémon in the anime.

History

Gabite and Ursula

Gabite's first appearance was in Another One Gabites the Dust!, alongside her Trainer, Ursula. Gabite appears to share Ursula's bad attitude, happily stepping on Dawn's Pachirisu's Poffin and then developing a rivalry with it similar to the one between Dawn and Ursula. Gabite was present when Ursula was knocked out of the Wallace Cup.

Gabite was used in the Battle Stage of the Chocovine Town Pokémon Contest, during which she knocked Jessie out of the competition by defeating Carnivine and then faced Pachirisu in the final. Gabite completely dominated the first half of the battle, however Dawn was able to win by whittling down Gabite's points by having Pachirisu gracefully dodge Gabite's attacks.

She appeared again in Yes in Dee Dee, It's Dawn!, in which she participated in a Double Performance along with Jigglypuff in the Daybreak Town Pokémon Contest. Their performance started with Jigglypuff using Rollout to roll over Gabite's body. Gabite then used Iron Tail to launch Jigglypuff into the air before using Stone Edge, which Jigglypuff destroyed with its Hyper Voice. After that, Jigglypuff used Gyro Ball to spin over the sand dunes Gabite created with Sand Tomb, the clash generating rainbow-colored dust. The presentation ended with Gabite using Dragon Claw while Jigglypuff spun on its claw. Their performance impressed the Contest Judges and allowed Ursula to pass the Performance Stage.

Gabite was used alongside Ursula's newly-evolved Flareon in Opposites Interact!, for the Top 32 battle round of the Sinnoh Grand Festival, another time against Dawn, her Pachirisu and Mamoswine. Gabite and Flareon seemed like they were going to win for most of the battle, however, Dawn perfected her Ice Chandelier combination and defeated them both.

Personality and characteristics

Gabite's rivalry with Pachirisu

Gabite shares many personality traits with her Trainer, Ursula, as evidenced in her debut episode when she developed a rivalry with Dawn's Pachirisu after stepping on its favorite food, a Poffin. Their rivalry continued even when they went up against each other in the final round of the Chocovine Town Pokémon Contest.

Gabite is known for her speediness as well as her confident and fierce attitude. Her streamlined body allows her to easily evade attacks and deliver successful ones at her targets. Gabite likes to be petted on the bottoms of her jaw and she is usually seen smirking at her opponents.

Just like Ursula makes a pose before commanding her Pokémon to perform a move, Gabite will make a pose before executing Ursula's commands. This is done to leave an impression on the minds of those who are watching her performances and battles.
