'''Spinda''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''パッチール''' ''Patcheel'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].


It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon, though the placement of its spots is unique to each individual Spinda. Its spots have over [[Form differences#Spinda|four billion possible combinations]], and are determined by its [[Personality value#Spinda's spots|personality value]].
It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.


==Biology==
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Spinda is a bipedal, red panda {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with rabbit-like features. Its eyes are made of two black spirals, which point in the opposite direction to each other. There is a similar swirling pattern on its ears. It has a small body with short stumpy arms and legs, and its coat is primarily cream-colored. Its arms are red and it has a red stripe bordering along the bottom of its belly, as well as two small spots on the soles of its feet. It has four spots, which can appear anywhere on its face and ears, with a fifth on the back of its head. These spot patterns are different for each and every Spinda.
Spinda resembles a small, upward standing panda with rabbit-like features. Its head is almost as large as its body, and it is almost always seen sporting a smile. Its eyes are made up of two black spirals, not unlike the spirals seen on the {{p|Poliwag}} family, which point in the opposite direction to each other, with a similar pattern on its ears. Spinda has four spots, which can appear anywhere on its face and ears, with a fifth on the back of its head. It has small body with short stumpy arms and legs, similar to that of {{p|Plusle}} and {{p|Minun}}, and its coat is primarily cream in coloration. Its arms are red and it has a red stripe bordering along the bottom of its belly, as well as two small spots on the soles of its feet.
 
====Gender differences====
Although there is no specific difference among males and females, almost all Spinda look different anyway.
 
====Special abilities====
A handful of Spinda's attacks involve causing confusion, including the rarely seen {{m|Teeter Dance}}. Spinda can also use a handful of other {{t|Psychic}} attacks, such as the rarely seen {{m|Psycho Cut}} and {{m|Role Play}}. It is also capable of physical combat, such as using the elemental punches and {{m|Flail}}.
 
Spinda can either have the {{a|Own Tempo}} ability or the {{a|Tangled Feet}} ability.
 
===Behavior===
Spinda have the odd habit of staggering around when they walk. This makes them appear dizzy, but they are not. The teetering walk helps to confuse enemies and potential predators, messing up their aim.


===Habitat===
It has dizzying, confusing, and scattering dance-like movements, though it thinks it is walking in a straight line. These movements confuse their opponents and make it difficult for them to aim at it. It lives in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountains}}.
[[File:Mountain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon}}]]


===Diet===
Prior to [[Generation V]], {{m|Teeter Dance}} was its [[signature move]], but other Pokémon could still inherit it via {{pkmn|breeding}}.
{{main|Pokémon food}}
 
==In the anime==
[[File:Spinda anime.png|thumb|right|200px|Spinda in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Spinda first appeared in ''[[AG057|Going for a Spinda]]''. {{Ash}} and co. had to help a girl named [[Claire]] find a Spinda with a heart-shaped spot on its forehead.  {{an|Brock}}, meanwhile, kept picking one up with a broken heart-shaped spot, to his displeasure.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Several of Spinda's [[move]]s focus on {{status|Confusion|confusing}} opponents. Spinda's natural [[ability|Abilities]] also focus on confusion.
* Spinda is the only non-Flying type that can have Tangled Feet as an Ability.
* A Spinda's spot pattern is determined by its [[personality value]], meaning that there can be exactly 4,294,967,296 (2<sup>32</sup>) different [[Form differences#Spinda|variations]] of Spinda, or double that number if {{Shiny}} Spinda are considered different variations.
**This fact is referred to by Spinda's HeartGold and SoulSilver Pokédex entry.
** Any of these spot patterns could also be Shiny—this raises the total to a massive 8,589,934,592 possibilities for its appearance. However, only 524,288 of these Shiny patterns are available on each individual game—Shininess is partially determined by the [[original Trainer]]'s ID and SID, meaning that every game has a different set of patterns that can be Shiny. This Shininess is retained when traded, however, like any Pokémon.
** If each spot combination is considered a different form of Spinda, then even without including Shiny forms, Spinda has more alternate forms than any other Pokémon, and in fact, has several orders of magnitude more alternate forms than all variations of all other currently existing Pokémon combined, including Shiny versions.
* In [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]], {{m|Toxic}} is depicted as two purple orbs spinning around each other towards the target. However, when Spinda uses Toxic, the orbs travel erratically. The same animation is used for {{p|Carnivine}}.
* In [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]], {{m|Toxic}} is depicted as two purple orbs spinning around each other towards the target. However, when Spinda uses Toxic, the orbs travel erratically. The same animation is used for {{p|Carnivine}}.
* Spinda is remarkably light for its size; it is [[List of Pokémon by height|half a meter taller]] than {{p|Skitty}}, yet [[List of Pokémon by weight|less than half the weight]].
* Like {{p|Whirlipede}}, its base stat total might be based on the fact that it usually spins in circles, which are 360 degrees.
* Spinda's {{g|Sun}} Pokédex entry states that Spinda believe they walk in straight lines, oblivious to their teetering gait. However, in [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]], an NPC Spinda tells the player; ''"When I walk, I always totter."'', clearly being aware of this trait.
 
===Spot patterns===
* Some of Spinda's [[Pokédex]] entries mention the odds of two Spinda having the same spot pattern as less than one in four billion. Since Spinda's spots are based on its [[personality value]] (or encryption constant in later games), which is a 32-bit number, a simplistic model would put the odds at 1 in 4,294,967,296, which is indeed smaller than one in four billion; however, it is actually possible for two personality values to produce spot patterns that are visually identical, so the real odds are somewhat higher.
** Using [https://web.archive.org/web/20230828010339/https://gatorshark.webs.com/Spinda%20Painter.htm this app], it can be found that two dots have 256 distinct locations, one dot has 254, and one dot has 237, counting all locations where the dot is entirely off-sprite as the same. This results in a total of 3,945,136,128 patterns. However, even this total is slightly too high, because if the upper left dot is far enough down and to the right, it can entirely eclipse the lower-left dot, resulting in a few more patterns being indistinguishable. Compare, for example, 0x0E07F5FB and 0x0EF0F5FB.
** The fewest spots a Spinda can visibly have is 1 - the sprite's leftmost spots can land entirely off the sprite, while the rightmost spots cannot, but instead can entirely overlap.
** In {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, due to a [[List of glitches in Generation VIII#Spinda spot pattern glitches|glitch]] this value is interpreted as big-endian, causing the spot pattern to be rendered incorrectly. As an example, a value of <code><span style="background:#FF9999">12</span><span style="background:#9999FF">34</span><span style="background:#99FF99">56</span><span style="background:#FFFF99">78</span></code> (hexadecimal) would be interpreted as <code><span style="background:#FF9999">78</span><span style="background:#9999FF">56</span><span style="background:#99FF99">34</span><span style="background:#FFFF99">12</span></code> instead.<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1500557458623778819</ref>
** In [[Pokémon HOME]] v2.1.1 and prior versions, when opening the [[summary]] of a Spinda in the mobile app, Spinda would display the correct spot pattern, identical to its appearance in [[Generation VI]] and below. In HOME v3.0.0 all Spinda were displayed as having the same pattern as the static rendered image used in all HOME menus.<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1665787431009001472</ref> The encryption constant of Spinda in HOME remained unchanged (which meant that if transferred out of HOME into a compatible game, they would have likely retained their original spot pattern), however HOME's mobile app no longer displayed the spot pattern associated with the encryption constant of a given individual Spinda, all appearing identical to the "stock" rendered image of Spinda. This was resolved in v3.0.1.<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1676088622943207424</ref>
*** The value internally used in Pokémon HOME as the "default" pattern for Spinda is <code><span style="background:#FF9999">7A</span><span style="background:#9999FF">39</span><span style="background:#99FF99">78</span><span style="background:#FFFF99">66</span></code>,<ref>https://twitter.com/Atrius97/status/1676088622943207424</ref> which is a close match to the pattern shown in nearly all official artwork, sprites, and 3D renders of Spinda.
** In Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl's [[Super Contest]]s, the encryption constant is generated randomly instead of using the value from Pokémon the player selects, which for Spinda results in completely random spot patterns appearing for the duration of the contest, regardless of their true spot pattern.<ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1828258413442142257</ref>
* Unlike other Pokémon with no [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|gender differences]], the [[Rotom Pokédex]] does not display a single model for both male and female Spinda, but rather a separate one for each. The models used are whatever the first spot patterns caught of each gender were.
** The Pokédex preview models for each gender, however, will always be a set model that will likely differ from the model the player will see.
* {{g|HOME}} cannot transfer Spinda into or out of {{g|GO}} or {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}} due to inconsistencies in how its spot patterns works.
** In Pokémon GO, Spinda has nine predetermined forms rather than random patterns.
*** As a result, Spinda is one of only two Pokémon obtainable in GO that cannot have the {{DL|Origin mark|GO icon}} as its [[origin mark]], the other being {{p|Zygarde}}.
** In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, this is due to a [[List of glitches in Generation VIII#Spinda spot pattern glitch|bug]] in the game, which causes the encryption constant to be read as a {{wp|Endianness|big-endian}} value (i.e. bytes are read in reverse order), and would allow the possibility to indirectly change Spinda's spot pattern. Spinda is the only Pokémon that cannot be transferred out of these games.


===Origin===
===Origin===
Spinda's body structure is based on the {{wp|panda}} with elongated {{wp|rabbit}} ears. The different spot patterns as well as its general color scheme may be a reference to {{wp|red panda}}s, which also have their own unique markings.
Spinda appears to be based on a {{wp|Qinling panda}} with traits of {{wp|rabbit}}s. It also resembles a {{wp|teddy bear}} or other {{wp|stuffed toy}}. The swirls in its eyes are based on cartoonish representation of someone being dazed or dizzy.
 
====Name origin====
====Name origin====
Spinda's name is a combination of ''spin'', referring to its twirly eyes and ears, and ''{{wp|panda}}'', referring to its fur patterns.
Spinda may be a combination of ''spin'' and ''panda''.
 
Patcheel may be a combination of ''patch'' and ''reel'' (to lose one's balance).


''Patcheel'' is based on ''patch'' or ''patchwork'', referring to its appearance, and 拈くる ''hinekuru'', twirl or spin.

Spinda (Japanese: パッチール Patcheel) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

Biology

Spinda is a bipedal, red panda Pokémon with rabbit-like features. Its eyes are made of two black spirals, which point in the opposite direction to each other. There is a similar swirling pattern on its ears. It has a small body with short stumpy arms and legs, and its coat is primarily cream-colored. Its arms are red and it has a red stripe bordering along the bottom of its belly, as well as two small spots on the soles of its feet. It has four spots, which can appear anywhere on its face and ears, with a fifth on the back of its head. These spot patterns are different for each and every Spinda.

It has dizzying, confusing, and scattering dance-like movements, though it thinks it is walking in a straight line. These movements confuse their opponents and make it difficult for them to aim at it. It lives in the mountains.

Prior to Generation V, Teeter Dance was its signature move, but other Pokémon could still inherit it via breeding.

Game data

NPC appearances

  • Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team: One day, a Spinda appears in Pokémon Square and collapses. When it regains consciousness, Spinda explains that it is giving up a long journey to find the Mirage Pokémon and hands its one clue, the Clear Wing, to the player. The player must then solve the Mystery of the Mirage Pokémon, which will reward them with the Rainbow Wing. Upon showing the Rainbow Wing to Spinda, or talking to Spinda as Ho-Oh, it becomes happy and leaves Pokémon Square.
  • Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky: Spinda runs Spinda's café and takes over the juice bar. A Wynaut and a Wobbuffet also work at the café running the recycle shop. Later in the game, Project P is introduced. After it is introduced, occasionally when speaking to Wynaut the player may gain access to a dungeon normally accessed by selecting a job with ??? as the location or get a choice of more items in the recycle shop.

Trivia

  • In Pokémon Battle Revolution, Toxic is depicted as two purple orbs spinning around each other towards the target. However, when Spinda uses Toxic, the orbs travel erratically. The same animation is used for Carnivine.
  • Like Whirlipede, its base stat total might be based on the fact that it usually spins in circles, which are 360 degrees.
  • Spinda's Pokémon Sun Pokédex entry states that Spinda believe they walk in straight lines, oblivious to their teetering gait. However, in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team, an NPC Spinda tells the player; "When I walk, I always totter.", clearly being aware of this trait.

Spot patterns

  • Some of Spinda's Pokédex entries mention the odds of two Spinda having the same spot pattern as less than one in four billion. Since Spinda's spots are based on its personality value (or encryption constant in later games), which is a 32-bit number, a simplistic model would put the odds at 1 in 4,294,967,296, which is indeed smaller than one in four billion; however, it is actually possible for two personality values to produce spot patterns that are visually identical, so the real odds are somewhat higher.
    • Using this app, it can be found that two dots have 256 distinct locations, one dot has 254, and one dot has 237, counting all locations where the dot is entirely off-sprite as the same. This results in a total of 3,945,136,128 patterns. However, even this total is slightly too high, because if the upper left dot is far enough down and to the right, it can entirely eclipse the lower-left dot, resulting in a few more patterns being indistinguishable. Compare, for example, 0x0E07F5FB and 0x0EF0F5FB.
    • The fewest spots a Spinda can visibly have is 1 - the sprite's leftmost spots can land entirely off the sprite, while the rightmost spots cannot, but instead can entirely overlap.
    • In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, due to a glitch this value is interpreted as big-endian, causing the spot pattern to be rendered incorrectly. As an example, a value of 12345678 (hexadecimal) would be interpreted as 78563412 instead.[1]
    • In Pokémon HOME v2.1.1 and prior versions, when opening the summary of a Spinda in the mobile app, Spinda would display the correct spot pattern, identical to its appearance in Generation VI and below. In HOME v3.0.0 all Spinda were displayed as having the same pattern as the static rendered image used in all HOME menus.[2] The encryption constant of Spinda in HOME remained unchanged (which meant that if transferred out of HOME into a compatible game, they would have likely retained their original spot pattern), however HOME's mobile app no longer displayed the spot pattern associated with the encryption constant of a given individual Spinda, all appearing identical to the "stock" rendered image of Spinda. This was resolved in v3.0.1.[3]
      • The value internally used in Pokémon HOME as the "default" pattern for Spinda is 7A397866,[4] which is a close match to the pattern shown in nearly all official artwork, sprites, and 3D renders of Spinda.
    • In Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl's Super Contests, the encryption constant is generated randomly instead of using the value from Pokémon the player selects, which for Spinda results in completely random spot patterns appearing for the duration of the contest, regardless of their true spot pattern.[5]
  • Unlike other Pokémon with no gender differences, the Rotom Pokédex does not display a single model for both male and female Spinda, but rather a separate one for each. The models used are whatever the first spot patterns caught of each gender were.
    • The Pokédex preview models for each gender, however, will always be a set model that will likely differ from the model the player will see.
  • Pokémon HOME cannot transfer Spinda into or out of Pokémon GO or Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl due to inconsistencies in how its spot patterns works.
    • In Pokémon GO, Spinda has nine predetermined forms rather than random patterns.
      • As a result, Spinda is one of only two Pokémon obtainable in GO that cannot have the GO icon as its origin mark, the other being Zygarde.
    • In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, this is due to a bug in the game, which causes the encryption constant to be read as a big-endian value (i.e. bytes are read in reverse order), and would allow the possibility to indirectly change Spinda's spot pattern. Spinda is the only Pokémon that cannot be transferred out of these games.

Origin

Spinda appears to be based on a Qinling panda with traits of rabbits. It also resembles a teddy bear or other stuffed toy. The swirls in its eyes are based on cartoonish representation of someone being dazed or dizzy.

Name origin

Spinda may be a combination of spin and panda.

Patcheel may be a combination of patch and reel (to lose one's balance).
