Dawn's Swinub (Japanese: ヒカリのウリム Hikari's Urimoo) was the fifth Pokémon captured by Dawn in the anime, and her sixth Pokémon in all. It is voiced by Tomoe Hanba in Japanese.
Swinub's debut was in DP084, in which it appeared at Mr. Backlot's mansion, and caused trouble by devouring all of Dawn's Poffins (much to the displeasure of Dawn's other Pokémon), revealing its gluttonous nature. However, after helping to take down Team Rocket, Dawn decided she wanted Swinub to go with her.

Trivia
- Swinub, alongside Ash's Gliscor, is the only Pokémon in the parties of Ash and his friends to be absent from the original Sinnoh Dex (though Jessie of Team Rocket has Yanmega, Seviper, and Wobbuffet, and Paul owns Electabuzz, Ursaring, and Gliscor).
- Swinub is the first capture Dawn has made since Buizel, exactly 50 episodes ago. It is also her only capture in which she didn't battle the Pokémon twice, or even at all.
- Swinub is the fifth, and most recent, Pokémon introduced in Generation II that is in the party of a member of the main cast during the Diamond & Pearl series, after Aipom, Sudowoodo, Gligar, and Yanma (technically sixth, if one counts Wobbuffet, which was itself traded to Jessie in Johto). All of these have evolved from or into Generation IV Pokémon (with the exception of Wobbuffet, which can't evolve anymore, nor does it have a Gen IV pre-evo), making it highly likely that Swinub will eventually evolve into Mamoswine.
- Swinub is also the second Pokémon that Dawn owns that was introduced in a generation other than the one she was introduced in, after Aipom.
- It's interesting to note that Dawn's best friend, Leona, owns three Swinub of her own.
- Swinub has some similarities with May's Munchlax; like May's Munchlax, Swinub loves to eat mass quantities of Poffin. Likewise, May's Munchlax enjoys mass quantities of Pokéblock (the Generation III counterpart of the Poffin).
- Dawn caught her Swinub in the Trophy Garden; in the Generation IV games so far, Swinub can only be obtained on Route 217 if they are swarming, or through Pal Park.
