Teddiursa (Japanese: ヒメグマ Himeguma) is a Template:Type2 Pokémon.

It evolves into Ursaring starting at level 30.

Biology

Physiology

Teddiursa are small, mammalian Pokémon that resemble bear cubs. They have short, orange-brown fur that covers their body, except for their mouth and the crescent moon marking on their heads, which are a light tan. Teddiursa have small, round bodies with short limbs and a short, puffy tail. Teddiursa have circular eyes with blue irises, three claws on their forepaws, and two on their feet, on which there is a circular yellow paw pad on the underside. Teddiursa are reminiscent of teddy bears.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

It is said that when Teddiursa find honey, the crescent moon on their head glows. They have also been known to concoct their own honey out of fruit and Beedrill pollen. Teddiursa tend to lick their paws because their paws absorb honey.

Behavior

Teddiursa appear to have a large appetite. They can be quite cunning in obtaining food, for example charming people in order to steal food from them and tricking the people into blaming the thefts on other Pokémon. However, they have also been known to team up with friends. Teddiursa often look to Ursaring for protection.

Habitat

Another group of Teddiursa appeared in Leading a Stray!.

Trivia

• Teddiursa has a different sprite in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen than in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire and Pokémon Emerald, while all of the other Generation II and III Pokémon have the same sprite in all five games.
• Teddiursa's Emerald Pokédex entry references Beedrill despite it not being able to be caught in the games like Teddiursa is.
• Teddiursa is one of fourteen Pokémon that one can collect foreign Pokédex entries for in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl.
• The official HeartGold and SoulSilver artwork is the first to correctly depict a Teddiursa licking its paws. Previous interpretations (including game sprites and 3-D models) mistakenly portrayed it more like thumbsucking.

Origin

It is based on a teddy bear, and possibly the honey bear, with a crescent moon on it, which resembles the Asian black bear or crescent bear's mark.

Name origin

Teddiursa's name is a combination of teddy bear and ursa, Latin for bear. Its Japanese name may be a combination of 姫 hime, princess, or hi, an alternate reading of 朏 mikazuki, crescent moon, and 熊 kuma, bear.

In other languages

• German: Teddiursa
• French: Teddiursa
• Korean: 깜지곰 Kkamjigom - Literally "baby bear".
