'''Chinchou''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''チョンチー''' ''Chonchie'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Electric}} Pokémon. | |||

==Biology== | ==Biology== | ||
Chinchou is a small, {{wp|fish|piscine}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a round, blue body. It has large yellow eyes with pupils shaped like plus signs, a pair of semi-transparent, light blue {{wp|fish fin|pectoral fins}}, and stubby feet. Positioned on Chinchou's rear, where its tail would be, are a pair of antennae that curve up and over its head. The antennae developed from fins and have yellow, teardrop-shaped orbs at the tips. | |||
Chinchou is a small, round, blue | |||
Inside Chinchou's antennae are electricity-generating cells that create so much electrical power that they even make Chinchou tingle slightly. The orbs on its antennae can glow and light up from the electric current, which Chinchou uses to lure prey. It also flashes its light to communicate with others of its kind and claim territory. By discharging positive and negative electricity from the antennae, it can both defend itself and stun its prey. Chinchou lives on dark {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|ocean floors}}, rarely ever coming up to the surface. However, it has demonstrated the ability to walk on land in the ''[[Pokémon the Series]]'' episode ''[[EP212|Takin' It on the Chinchou]]''. | |||

Chinchou (Japanese: チョンチー Chonchie) is a dual-type Water/Electric Pokémon introduced in Generation II.
It evolves into Lanturn starting at level 27.
Biology
Chinchou is a small, piscine Pokémon with a round, blue body. It has large yellow eyes with pupils shaped like plus signs, a pair of semi-transparent, light blue pectoral fins, and stubby feet. Positioned on Chinchou's rear, where its tail would be, are a pair of antennae that curve up and over its head. The antennae developed from fins and have yellow, teardrop-shaped orbs at the tips.
Inside Chinchou's antennae are electricity-generating cells that create so much electrical power that they even make Chinchou tingle slightly. The orbs on its antennae can glow and light up from the electric current, which Chinchou uses to lure prey. It also flashes its light to communicate with others of its kind and claim territory. By discharging positive and negative electricity from the antennae, it can both defend itself and stun its prey. Chinchou lives on dark ocean floors, rarely ever coming up to the surface. However, it has demonstrated the ability to walk on land in the Pokémon the Series episode Takin' It on the Chinchou.
