'''Greninja''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ゲッコウガ''' ''Gekkouga'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation VI]].


It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Frogadier}} starting at [[level]] 36. It is the final form of {{p|Froakie}}.
It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Frogadier}} starting at [[level]] 36. It is the final form of {{p|Froakie}}.
In Generation VII, Greninja with the [[Ability]] {{a|Battle Bond}} can {{DL|Bond Phenomenon|transform}} into a special form known as '''Ash-Greninja''' after defeating an opponent during [[battle]]. Greninja with Battle Bond is treated as a distinct [[#Form data|form]] in the games' code.
In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, the Ash-Greninja transformation is no longer present, and Battle Bond's effect was changed to instead increase Greninja's [[stats]] upon defeating an opponent.
(Refer to [[#Form data|Game data&rarr;Form data]] for more details.)


==Biology==
==Biology==
Greninja is a large, bipedal, frog-like Pokémon. Its body and legs are dark blue, with single large white bubbles on its legs and arms and white spots over its eyes. On the sides of each of its upper thighs is a light blue, four-sided star. Its back feet have two toes, while its front feet have three toes. Its feet are webbed, and it has a yellow chest and a yellow-and-blue face. It has eyes with white sclera, red irises, and white pupils. A large, projecting dark blue stripe runs down the middle of its head, with projecting light blue stripes in between its large, yellow ears. Its mouth is hidden behind a large, pink tongue that wraps around Greninja's neck and extends outward behind its head.
Greninja is a bipedal, {{wp|frog}}-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. It is mostly dark blue with a yellow chest, a white triangular marking over each eye, a light blue four-pointed star on each thigh, and yellow on the lower half of its face. It has red eyes with white pupils and its mouth is hidden behind a large, pink tongue that wraps around its neck and extends outward behind its head. Running down the middle of its head is a fin-like extension, and there is a similar fin on each side of its head. Light blue webbing connects its head fins. There is a large, white bubble-like bump on each elbow and knee. Its back feet have two toes, while its front feet have three toes. Each digit has a bulbous tip and yellow webbing.
 
Greninja's movements are swift, rapid and graceful, akin to those of ninja. It uses this speed to confound enemies while slicing them up. It can compress water into various weapons to slice up enemies, most commonly in the form of its {{m|Water Shuriken}}, though it has been shown creating water katana and water kunai in both the anime and the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series. It can also create shuriken from the mucus it excretes from its thighs for sharp projectiles that can split through metal. Although this is only seen in the anime, Greninja's tongue is extremely long and many times its own height, and strong enough to catch and hold an average human. However, it usually keeps its tongue wrapped around its neck like a scarf. Doing so exposes its tongue to air movements, allowing Greninja to detect enemies it otherwise could not see.


Greninja moves with the speed and grace of a ninja, using swift movements to confuse its enemies while it slices them up with {{m|Water Shuriken|throwing stars}} made of compressed water; these throwing stars are sharp enough to split metal. Greninja is the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning {{m|Mat Block}}.
In [[Generation VI]], {{m|Mat Block}} was its [[signature move]]. In [[Generation IX]], {{m|Water Shuriken}} is its signature move.


==In the anime==

===Major appearances===
Riot Greninja.png|thumb|Greninja extending its tongue
In ''[[XY091|Cloudy Fate, Bright Future!]]'', [[Olympia]] foresees that [[Ash's Frogadier]] will evolve into a Greninja and will have a unique form when it evolves. This form was also seen by Olympia as a premonition in the [[XY092|next episode]].
</gallery>


A Greninja appeared in ''[[M17|Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction]]'' under the ownership of [[Riot]].
===Forms===
[[File:Ash Greninja SM concept art.jpg|thumb|left|220px|Concept art of Ash-Greninja from Sun/Moon]]
Greninja has an alternate form: Ash-Greninja.


A Greninja appeared in ''[[XY052|A Stealthy Challenge!]]'' under the ownership of [[Sanpei]]. It will reappear in [[XY098]].
Through a process called the [[Bond Phenomenon]], certain Greninja, such as [[Ash's Greninja]] in the {{pkmn|anime}}, can change into an alternate form called Ash-Greninja. In this form, Greninja's skin turns a lighter shade of blue, while its face gains red stripes and its cheeks and side fins turn black, changing shape to resemble {{Ash}}'s hair. Ash-Greninja is always male.


===Minor appearances===
As Ash-Greninja, its speed and power far outpace those of a normal Greninja. Its legs are strengthened, increasing its speed to a point where it becomes highly difficult to see and enabling it to dispatch enemies in a flash. It gains the ability to form even larger {{m|Water Shuriken}}s on its back and launch them in rapid succession. Ash-Greninja is described as a form used in battle in order to break through Greninja's limits.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20171023143056mp_/http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/ash-greninja/</ref>
Greninja made a debut in ''[[XY017|A Rush of Ninja Wisdom!]]'' under the ownership of [[Ippei]], but only in a fantasy.

===Form data===
In the [[S19|''XY&Z'' arc]] of the {{pkmn|anime}}'s ''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]'', [[Ash's Greninja]] gained the ability to transform into a stronger form known as "Ash-Greninja" through an occurrence referred to as the [[Bond Phenomenon]]. This form was introduced to the [[core series]] games in {{g|Sun and Moon}}.
 
In the [[Generation VII]] games, a Greninja with the Ability {{a|Battle Bond}} will transform into Ash-Greninja after it directly causes an opponent to [[fainting|faint]] without ending the battle. It will remain in this form until either it faints or the battle ends; in the former case, this prevents it from changing back into Ash-Greninja for the remainder of the battle. Ash-Greninja has different [[base stats]] than regular Greninja, with increased {{stat|Attack}}, {{stat|Special Attack}}, and {{stat|Speed}}. Additionally, the [[move]] {{m|Water Shuriken}} will be more [[power]]ful, having 20 power instead of 15, and will always hit 3 times, instead of varying between 2-5 hits. Ash-Greninja has been removed from the core series in {{g|Scarlet and Violet|s}} due to Battle Bond having its effect changed.
 
Internally, standard Greninja with Battle Bond are considered to be a separate form to Greninja with {{a|Torrent}} or {{a|Protean}}. These Greninja are always [[gender|male]], cannot {{pkmn|breeding|breed}}, and, like [[Special Pokémon]], are banned from the [[Battle Spot]]. A Greninja with Battle Bond can be transferred to Pokémon Sun and Moon from the [[Pokémon Sun and Pokémon Moon Special Demo Version|Special Demo Version]]. This is the only way to obtain it, so it is no longer obtainable for players who did not download the demo before the discontinuation of the 3DS Nintendo eShop on March 27, 2023.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Greninja has the highest base {{stat|Speed}} of all {{type|Water}} Pokémon and all fully-evolved starter Pokémon.
* Greninja is the only fully evolved form of a [[first partner Pokémon]] that has more than two possible {{Abilities}} without having a [[Mega Evolution]], and the only one to have an {{pkmn2|event}}-exclusive Ability.
* Greninja and its pre-evolutions are the only Water-type first partner Pokémon line to be in the Water 1 Egg Group and only the Water 1 Egg Group.
* Greninja shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Ninjask}}. They are both known as the Ninja Pokémon.
* Greninja shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Ninjask}}. They are both known as the Ninja Pokémon.
* Greninja won first place in the Japanese [http://www.pokemon-movie.jp/election/ Pokémon general election 720] (Japanese: '''ポケモン総選挙720''') poll to decide what Pokémon would be distributed at showings of ''[[M19|Volcanion and the Mechanical Marvel]]'' in Japan.
* It was revealed that Greninja was added into [[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]] before [[Pokémon X and Y]] was even released. Masahiro Sakurai knew that a [[Generation VI]] Pokémon was going to be a playable fighter in that game, so when Greninja was decided, all they had to go on in terms of design was concept art, similar to {{few|Roy}} during the development of [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]].
* In the [[Pokémon of the Year]] vote held by [[The Pokémon Company International]] and {{wp|Google}} in February 2020, Greninja won first place with 140,559 votes and beat {{p|Lucario}} at second place (102,259 votes) and {{p|Mimikyu}} at third (99,077 votes).
* Greninja is the only Pokémon playable in [[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]] that is unavailable in a [[Generation VIII]] [[core series]] game.


===Origin===
===Origin===
Greninja is based on a frog, and may have been inspired by horned frogs from the {{wp|Genus|genera}} ''{{wp|Megophrys}}'' and ''{{wp|Ceratophrys}}'' due to the spiked protrusions above its eyes. Its coloration and body shape is similar to the {{wp|splendid leaf frog}}. The bubble-like protrusions on its body may be based on a toad's {{wp|parotoid gland}}s, possibly referencing the traditional myth of {{wp|True toad|toad}}s causing {{wp|wart}}s, though they may also be remnants of Froakie and Frogadier's frog foam. As its species name implies, Greninja is also based on a {{wp|ninja}}. Japanese culture associates frogs and toads with ninjas based on the folk story "The Tale of the Gallant {{wp|Jiraiya}}" (児雷也豪傑物語 ''Jiraiya Gōketsu Monogatari'') about a ninja who can shapeshift into a large toad.

Greninja and its pre-evolutions may also draw inspiration from the thief or rogue {{wp|character class}} in {{wp|role-playing game}}s, which are generally ranged combatants that often rely on speed and stealth, focusing more on dodging attacks rather than withstanding damage.
 
Ash-Greninja's appearance is based on {{Ash}}'s attire in ''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]'' and his hair. On its back it wears a {{wp|shuriken}} (ninja star) made out of water.

Greninja (Japanese: ゲッコウガ Gekkouga) is a dual-type Water/Dark Pokémon introduced in Generation VI.

It evolves from Frogadier starting at level 36. It is the final form of Froakie.

In Generation VII, Greninja with the Ability Battle Bond can transform into a special form known as Ash-Greninja after defeating an opponent during battle. Greninja with Battle Bond is treated as a distinct form in the games' code.

In Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, the Ash-Greninja transformation is no longer present, and Battle Bond's effect was changed to instead increase Greninja's stats upon defeating an opponent.

(Refer to Game data→Form data for more details.)

Biology

Greninja is a bipedal, frog-like Pokémon. It is mostly dark blue with a yellow chest, a white triangular marking over each eye, a light blue four-pointed star on each thigh, and yellow on the lower half of its face. It has red eyes with white pupils and its mouth is hidden behind a large, pink tongue that wraps around its neck and extends outward behind its head. Running down the middle of its head is a fin-like extension, and there is a similar fin on each side of its head. Light blue webbing connects its head fins. There is a large, white bubble-like bump on each elbow and knee. Its back feet have two toes, while its front feet have three toes. Each digit has a bulbous tip and yellow webbing.

Greninja's movements are swift, rapid and graceful, akin to those of ninja. It uses this speed to confound enemies while slicing them up. It can compress water into various weapons to slice up enemies, most commonly in the form of its Water Shuriken, though it has been shown creating water katana and water kunai in both the anime and the Super Smash Bros. series. It can also create shuriken from the mucus it excretes from its thighs for sharp projectiles that can split through metal. Although this is only seen in the anime, Greninja's tongue is extremely long and many times its own height, and strong enough to catch and hold an average human. However, it usually keeps its tongue wrapped around its neck like a scarf. Doing so exposes its tongue to air movements, allowing Greninja to detect enemies it otherwise could not see.

In Generation VI, Mat Block was its signature move. In Generation IX, Water Shuriken is its signature move.

Forms

Concept art of Ash-Greninja from Sun/Moon

Greninja has an alternate form: Ash-Greninja.

Through a process called the Bond Phenomenon, certain Greninja, such as Ash's Greninja in the anime, can change into an alternate form called Ash-Greninja. In this form, Greninja's skin turns a lighter shade of blue, while its face gains red stripes and its cheeks and side fins turn black, changing shape to resemble Ash's hair. Ash-Greninja is always male.

As Ash-Greninja, its speed and power far outpace those of a normal Greninja. Its legs are strengthened, increasing its speed to a point where it becomes highly difficult to see and enabling it to dispatch enemies in a flash. It gains the ability to form even larger Water Shurikens on its back and launch them in rapid succession. Ash-Greninja is described as a form used in battle in order to break through Greninja's limits.[1]

Ash-Greninja is the only known Pokémon that can have Battle Bond as an Ability.

Form data

In the XY&Z arc of the anime's Pokémon the Series: XY, Ash's Greninja gained the ability to transform into a stronger form known as "Ash-Greninja" through an occurrence referred to as the Bond Phenomenon. This form was introduced to the core series games in Pokémon Sun and Moon.

In the Generation VII games, a Greninja with the Ability Battle Bond will transform into Ash-Greninja after it directly causes an opponent to faint without ending the battle. It will remain in this form until either it faints or the battle ends; in the former case, this prevents it from changing back into Ash-Greninja for the remainder of the battle. Ash-Greninja has different base stats than regular Greninja, with increased Attack, Special Attack, and Speed. Additionally, the move Water Shuriken will be more powerful, having 20 power instead of 15, and will always hit 3 times, instead of varying between 2-5 hits. Ash-Greninja has been removed from the core series in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet due to Battle Bond having its effect changed.

Internally, standard Greninja with Battle Bond are considered to be a separate form to Greninja with Torrent or Protean. These Greninja are always male, cannot breed, and, like Special Pokémon, are banned from the Battle Spot. A Greninja with Battle Bond can be transferred to Pokémon Sun and Moon from the Special Demo Version. This is the only way to obtain it, so it is no longer obtainable for players who did not download the demo before the discontinuation of the 3DS Nintendo eShop on March 27, 2023.

Trivia

Origin

Greninja's overall appearance is based on a frog,[2] and it may have been inspired by horned frogs from the genera Megophrys and Ceratophrys due to the spiked protrusions above its eyes. Its color scheme and body shape is similar to that of the splendid leaf frog. The bubble-like protrusions on its body may be based on a toad's parotoid glands, possibly referencing the traditional myth of toads causing warts, though they may also be remnants of Froakie and Frogadier's frubbles.

As its species name implies, Greninja is also based on a ninja. Japanese culture associates frogs and toads with ninjas based on the folk story The Tale of the Gallant Jiraiya (Japanese: 児雷也豪傑物語 Jiraiya Gōketsu Monogatari), about a ninja who can shapeshift into a large toad. Greninja and its pre-evolutions may also draw inspiration from the thief or rogue character class in role-playing games, which are generally ranged combatants that often rely on speed and stealth, focusing more on dodging attacks rather than withstanding damage.

Ash-Greninja's appearance is based on Ash's attire in Pokémon the Series: XY and his hair. On its back it wears a shuriken (ninja star) made out of water.

Name origin

Greninja may be a combination of grenouille (French for frog) and ninja.

Gekkouga may be a combination of げこっ geko (croak) or 月光 gekkō (moonlight, in reference to a popular conception of ninja running through the night or to Greninja's Dark typing) and 甲賀流 Kōga-ryū.
