Pansage (Japanese: ヤナップ Yanappu) is a Template:Type2 Pokémon introduced in Generation V.

It evolves into Yanakkie when exposed to a Leaf Stone.

Pansage is one of the three elemental monkeys. The other two are Fire-type Pansear and Water-type Panpour.

Biology

Physiology

Pansage is a primate-like, green-and-yellow Grass-type Pokémon. The proportion of its head and large ears are similar to that of Aipom. The upper half of its head and the broccoli-like sprout atop is green, exempting a pattern of three yellow, tapered seed-like shapes in the sprout's "foliage". Pansage’s eyes are oval-shaped, with large pupils, and the lower half of its face is yellow with a small, dot-like nose. Its upper body and its skinny forelimbs are also yellow, and its hands seem to have no fingers, aside from thumbs. Pansage's lower body is green with small feet, and its wiry tail is tipped with two leaves.

None.

Special abilities

Trivia

  • Pansage was first seen, together with Axew, as a toy featured in two images seen July 2010, but it wasn't named and nothing was known about it. In the beginning of August a fake leak of the September issue of CoroCoro showed its own version of this Pokémon. Pansage was officially revealed August 22, 2010 by Pokémon Sunday.
  • Pansage, along with Pansear, Panpour, and their respective evolutions, are the only non-starter Pokémon that can have a starter-exclusive ability. In Pansage and Yanakkie's case, this is Overgrow.
  • Pansage is the only Pokémon capable of learning Grass Knot by level-up.

Origin

Pansage is based on a monkey and a tree; the fact that it is based on both may mean it might be based on the legends of monkey trees or possibly a visual pun on leaf monkeys. It, along with his two contemporaries, seem to inspired by the three wise monkeys motif; with its mouth open, Pansage represents "speak no evil".

Name origin

Pansage may come from the Pan genus and "sage". Yanappu may come from 柳 yanagi meaning willow, and from ape. It could also come from 野菜 yasai meaning vegetable, since the other reading of 菜 is na.
