Lopunny (Japanese: ミミロップ Mimilop) is a Normal-type Pokémon.

It evolves from Buneary when leveled up with high friendship.

Biology

Lopunny is a bipedal, rabbit-like Pokémon with a dark brown pelt and a short round tail. It has red eyes with black marking on one side, long tufts of cream-colored fur above its eyes, and a small, pink nose. Its long ears end in fluffy, cream-colored fur. Lopunny is very proud of these ears, and never fails to groom them. If the ears are roughly handled, Lopunny will kick in retaliation. Its wrists and legs below the knees are covered in fluffy, cream-colored fur similar to its ears. It sheds its fur twice a year, and has a soft, fluffy coat in winter. Lopunny is a timid Pokémon that will cloak its body with its ears or spring away when it senses danger.

Trivia

• Lopunny is the only Pokémon that can learn Return by leveling up.
  • Its pre-evolution learns Frustration at the same level, and is also the only one to learn it by leveling up.

Origin

Lopunny appears to be a caricature of a Playboy Bunny or other bunny girls as seen in popular culture. The bunny girl costumes of Playboy fame are still quite popular in Japanese adult media, which might explain Lopunny's coquettish cry and girlish figure. It is also likely based on the lop rabbit, or more specifically the Holland Lop. It is designed after a woman, possibly a fashion model, wearing womens' fur or faux fur-cuffed gloves and boots.

Name origin

Lopunny is a combination of lop (a breed of rabbit with ears that flop over rather than stand erect) and bunny.

Mimilop is a combination of 耳 mimi (ear) and lop.
