===Physiology===
[[File:Flying Buizel.png|thumb|left|250px|Buizel flying using its tail in ''[[DP011|Mounting a Coordinator Assault]]'']]
Buizel possesses mainly mammalian characteristics with orange fur and paws as well as resembling a realistic cross between a weasel and a sea otter. The collar that is around its neck can be inflated and used as a flotation device when the Pokémon inhales. Buizel also carries characteristics of sea creatures, in that it has two blue fins on its arms and two tails, appearing to be split up which makes it resemble an {{p|Espeon}}'s, that resembles a fish's fin. Its tail acts as a boat propeller by spinning. There are parallel marks on their cheeks quite similar to those of Furret.
Buizel is an orange {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} resembling a weasel and a sea otter. It has a yellow collar around its neck and two blue fins on its arms. Buizel has a cream-colored spot above each eye and two black parallel marks on its cheeks. The underside of its face and stomach are also cream-colored, as are the tips of its two tails. A male Buizel has two cream-colored spots on their back, while a female has only one.
====Gender differences====
 
From back view, the males have two white spots and the females only have one.
Buizel's yellow collar is a flotation sac that can be inflated when it inhales. By doing so, Buizel can keep its face above water to watch for prey movement or survey its surroundings. Conversely, it deflates this sac in order to dive. Its tails can spin to act as a propeller, allowing it to swim and slice through obstacles like seaweed. In [[DP011|the anime]], it is also able to fly using its spinning tail. Buizel usually lives alongside bodies of water.
 
===Evolution===
Buizel evolves into {{p|Floatzel}}.
 
(For specifics on this Pokémon's Evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data&rarr;Evolution data]].)

</div>


====Special abilities====
==Game data==
Buizel can apparently both fly and propel itself through water by spinning their tails like propellers. Buizel can also use its tail for firing {{m|SonicBoom}} and {{m|Razor Wind}} attacks. It is one of the 11 Pokémon that can learn {{m|Aqua Jet}}.
===NPC appearances===
*{{g|Super Mystery Dungeon}}: Buizel is in charge of underwater explorations at the [[Expedition Society]]. He acts a mentor to the player and partner. He is brave but reckless.


===Behavior===
===Pokédex entries===
In ''[[Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'' Buizel acted a bit like a dog. It came up and licked Max and messed with the {{p|Manaphy}} Egg like it was a toy.

===Origin===
===Origin===
[[Image:Buizelflying.jpg|thumb|left|Buizel in ''[[DP011|Mounting a Coordinator Assault]]''.]]
Buizel seems to be based on a {{wp|weasel}}, as well as a {{wp|Otter|river otter}}. Its design also appears to incorporate various {{wp|flotation devices}}, such as {{wp|swim ring}}s and {{wp|inflatable armbands}}. Buizel's two tails can rotate like a screw similarly how boats use {{wp|propeller}}s to move by pushing water.
[[Image:Tailsflying.jpg|thumb|right|{{wp|Miles "Tails" Prower|Tails}} from {{wp|Sonic the Hedgehog}}.]]
Buizel seems to be based on an {{wp|otter}}. The fact that Buizel spins its forked-tail like a propeller is not unlike that of {{wp|Miles "Tails" Prower|Tails}} of the {{wp|Sonic the Hedgehog series}}, and this was, in fact, highlighted in ''[[DP011|Mounting a Coordinator Assault]]''.


====Name origin====
====Name origin====
''Buizel'' is a corruption of its Japanese name, Buoysel, which is believed to be a combination of ''{{wp|buoy}}'' and ''weasel''. It may also derive from "bui" the Gaelic (Irish) word for yellow.
Buizel and Buoysel may be combinations of ''{{wp|buoy}}'' and ''{{wp|weasel}}''.

Buizel (Japanese: ブイゼル Buoysel) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.

It evolves into Floatzel starting at level 26.

Biology

Buizel flying using its tail in Mounting a Coordinator Assault

Buizel is an orange Pokémon resembling a weasel and a sea otter. It has a yellow collar around its neck and two blue fins on its arms. Buizel has a cream-colored spot above each eye and two black parallel marks on its cheeks. The underside of its face and stomach are also cream-colored, as are the tips of its two tails. A male Buizel has two cream-colored spots on their back, while a female has only one.

Buizel's yellow collar is a flotation sac that can be inflated when it inhales. By doing so, Buizel can keep its face above water to watch for prey movement or survey its surroundings. Conversely, it deflates this sac in order to dive. Its tails can spin to act as a propeller, allowing it to swim and slice through obstacles like seaweed. In the anime, it is also able to fly using its spinning tail. Buizel usually lives alongside bodies of water.

Evolution

Buizel evolves into Floatzel.

(For specifics on this Pokémon's Evolution in the games, refer to Game data→Evolution data.)

Buizel seems to be based on a weasel, as well as a river otter. Its design also appears to incorporate various flotation devices, such as swim rings and inflatable armbands. Buizel's two tails can rotate like a screw similarly how boats use propellers to move by pushing water.

Name origin

Buizel and Buoysel may be combinations of buoy and weasel.
