Abra (Japanese: ケーシィ Casey) is a Psychic-type Pokémon.

It evolves into Kadabra starting at level 16, which evolves into Alakazam when traded.

Biology

Abra is a bipedal Pokémon that is primarily yellow. Its face is kite-shaped, with a small, pale yellow snout and two short, pointed ears with pale yellow interiors. Its wide, narrow eyes are normally closed. Abra's body is segmented with black skin is visible between its joints and along its neck. It has two brown, pauldron-shaped extensions on its shoulders, as well as a brown, fauld-like piece around its chest. It has three fingers and toes, with its fingers considerably shorter than its toes. Its tail is thick and long, with a brown band located near the tip.

Abra can sense danger by reading minds. When it does, it teleports itself to a safe location so quickly that it creates the illusion of having made copies of itself. By hypnotizing itself, Abra is able to teleport or use any of its other extrasensory abilities at any time. Due to the strain of its telepathic powers, however, Abra sleeps 18 hours each day. If it fails to rest long enough, it will become unable to use its powers. Abra lives in urban areas, but has been observed to teleport to a different location once per hour.

Trivia

• In the Pokémon Red and Blue beta, Abra was originally known as "Hocus".
• In Pokémon Conquest, Abra is seen floating. Despite this, it is still considered a grounded Pokémon and can activate ground traps such as the Cog Wheel in Valora.

Origin

It is likely based on a mystic or psychic. It also has similarities to goats and foxes, both animals with ties to magic.

Name origin

Abra is part of an incantation used in stage magic, Abracadabra. It may also derive from the Spanish word cabra (goat).

Casey is a reference to Edgar Cayce, a purported psychic famous for entering self-induced trances, as the Japanese names of the Abra line are based on famous mystics.
