Spinda (Japanese: パッチールPatcheel) is a Template:Type2 Pokémon. Spinda's spots have over 4 billion possible combinations, and are determined by its personality value.
No Spinda is the same as another. All Spinda have different spots and spin patterns on their head and torso. Spinda resembles a small, upward standing rabbit or bear-like creature, with a small body similar, only slightly more bloated, to Plusle or Minun.
Gender differences
Although there is no specific difference among males and females, all Spinda look different anyway.
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.
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: One day, a Spinda appears in Pokémon Square and collapses. When it comes to, Spinda explains that it is giving up a long journey to find the Mirage Pokémon and hands its one clue, the Transparent Feather, to the player.
