Dawn's Piloswine (Japanese: ヒカリイノムー Hikari's Inomoo) was the fifth Pokémon captured by Dawn in the anime, and her sixth Pokémon in all. It is voiced by Tomoe Hanba in Japanese.
Piloswine's debut was in Hungry For the Good Life! as a Swinub, 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.
In DP095 Swinub watched its first contest when it saw Dawn, Buneary and Ambipom work together to win the Celestic Town Pokémon Contest.
Swinub evolved into Piloswine in DP104 in a battle against Team Rocket. However, after evolving, its personality drastically changed. Knowing numerous powerful attacks, Piloswine felt much stronger and more confident than it did as a Swinub, and began to disobey Dawn's orders.

Trivia
- Piloswine, 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).
- Piloswine 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.
- Piloswine 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.
- Piloswine 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.
- Piloswine has some similarities with 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).
- So far, Piloswine is Dawn's only dual-type Pokémon.
- Piloswine is Dawn's second evolved Pokémon, the first being Ambipom.
- DP104, the episode in which Swinub evolves into Piloswine, first aired in Japan in the same week that Hungry For the Good Life!, the episode in which Swinub is captured, first aired in the United States. The same thing happened to Ash's Gliscor.
- Piloswine is the first pokemon in the current saga to appear evolved in an opening prior to its actual evolution being shown. Furthermore, it was as a Mamoswine. Therefore, Piloswine is one of few pokemon to be owned by a main cast member but not ever appear in an opening in that form.
