Togepi (Japanese: トゲピー Togepy) is a Template:Type2 baby Pokémon.

It evolves into Togetic via happiness, who evolves into Togekiss when exposed to a Shiny Stone.

Biology

Physiology

Togepi is a small, light yellow Pokémon with a round body that is still encased in its egg shell. Togepi do not shed their shell. It has red and blue rings on it, suggesting that its real body has the same pattern. Togepi has stubby hands and round feet with two toes each. Togepi has black eyes and five spikes on its head that seem to form a crown. It also has a semiovular and brown pads on the soles of its feet.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

A Togepi is able to siphon the positive energy of others, and release it to those in need of it. Togepi can also release poison from the spikes on its head.

Behavior

Togepi generally act childish and may be oblivious to danger, therefore extra care should be taken to keep them safe. They also have a very joyful nature. As a result, it is said that it shares its joy with those who take care of it and protect it from harm.

Habitat

Togepi are very rarely ever found in the wild. But they may be found in secluded areas.

Diet

Main article: Pokémon food

In Clefairy Tales, Togepi is shown eating ice cream along with Pikachu.

In the anime

Major appearances

Togepi in the anime

Misty's Togepi

In Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon, Ash finds a Pokémon egg. It hatches into a Togepi in Who Gets to Keep Togepi?, and since Misty is the first thing the baby Pokémon sees, it believes Misty is its mother. At the end of A Togepi Mirage!, Princess Sara found the Togepi of Legend, and Misty left her Togepi, which had just evolved to Togetic, in the Mirage Kingdom.

Other

Several Togepi appeared in A Togepi Mirage! living in the Togepi Paradise.

An unusually bratty female Togepi appeared in Where No Togepi Has Gone Before!. It used its cute qualities to manipulate people so it could cause mischief.

EP050 Togepi Ash's Pokédex Togepi, an Egg Pokémon. Specific information about this Pokémon is still unavailable.

Episode Pokémon Source Entry
AG044 Togepi May's Pokédex Togepi, the Spike Ball Pokémon. Togepi is said to exude a relaxing aura that grows stronger when treated nicely.
AG045 Togepi May's Pokédex Togepi, the Spike Ball Pokémon. Togepi is filled with an energy that makes people happy. When treated well, Togepi shares this energy with others, but when it comes near a human with an impure heart this energy quickly disappears, leaving Togepi exhausted.
Episode Pokémon Source Entry
DP142 Togepi Dawn's Pokédex Togepi, the Spike Ball Pokémon. Happiness is stored in Togepi's shell, and it shares its happiness with kind-hearted people.

In the manga

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

Gold receives an egg from Jasmine's Togetic, which eventually hatched into a Togepi. However, unlike regular Togepi, this one is quite violent, defeating a wild Gligar, who wanted to eat its egg, just after it was born. Also, the Togepi, named Togebo, picked up on some of Gold's gambling habits as an egg. In spite of being a baby Pokémon, it was also surprisingly powerful, being able to defeat both the Tyranitar that Lance lent to Silver and later the rampaging Dragonite that apparently belonged to the same Elite Four member. However, both times, it was injured in the process.

In spite of its strength, Lance points out that Gold never really put much trust in its abilities, and as a result it was unable to evolve until late into the HeartGold & SoulSilver arc. It then quickly evolves a second time using a Shiny Stone.

In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga

Isamu Akai owned a Togepi for several chapters of the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga, hatching it from an egg in Volume 6 and releasing it in Volume 11.

In the TCG

Main article: Togepi (TCG)

Other appearances

Super Smash Bros. Melee/Brawl

When released from a Poké Ball, Togepi will use Metronome which will trigger Night Shade, Magnitude, Sing, Ice Beam, or Leech Seed.

Melee trophy information

These adorable Spike Ball Pokémon hatch from eggs given out by Professor Elm's assistant. Common superstition holds that their shells are chock-full of happiness and that they become good-luck charms when handled with kindness. It's impossible to predict which ability a Togepi will call upon when it uses its Metronome move, so you'd better be ready!

Pokémon mini

Togepi appears in the Pokémon mini game Togepi's Adventure.

Trivia

Origin

Togepi appears to be based on the concept of a baby hatchling of any of a number of species of animals. It could also possibly be based on an egg, with its evolutions based loosely on birds.

Name origin

The toge in Togepi's name is 刺, spike. The "Pi" possibly comes from "piyopiyo," Japanese onomatopoeia for a bird chirping. Its name may also be a corruption of Dokkaebi, usually pronounced tokebi in Japanese, which is a mythical being of Korean folklore.
