Pansage (Japanese: ヤナップ Yanappu) is a Grass-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V.

It evolves into Simisage when exposed to a Leaf Stone.

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

Biology

Pansage's leaves curing exhaustion in Pokémon Adventures

Pansage is a simian, green-and-cream Pokémon. It has oval, black eyes, large ears with light green insides, and a tiny, black nose. There is a broccoli-like sprout atop its head. In the sprout's foliage are three yellow, tapered seed-like shapes. If eaten, the leaves in this sprout can alleviate exhaustion. Its muzzle, upper body, and skinny forelimbs are cream-colored, and its hands seem to have no fingers, aside from a thumb. Pansage's lower body is green with small feet, and its long tail is tipped with two leaves. Pansage dwells deep in the forest, where it collects berries to share with its friends.

Evolution

Pansage evolves into Simisage.

Trivia

Origin

Pansage is based on a monkey,[1] with the top of its head resembling a tree or vegetables such as broccoli. 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.

Pansage, Pansear, and Panpour were specifically created as partner Pokémon for Cilan, Chili and Cress, the Gym Leaders of Striaton Gym. As Striaton Gym doubles as a restaurant, these Pokémon were designed around cooking as a theme, and their hands were designed to resemble oven mitts.[1] Additionally, Pansage, along with its two contemporaries, seems to be inspired by the three wise monkeys motif; with its mouth open, Pansage represents "speak no evil".

Name origin

Pansage may be a combination of Pan (the genus of chimpanzees) and sage (an herb). Sage can also refer to a wise person, relating to the "three wise monkeys" motif of the elemental monkeys.

Yanappu may be a combination of 柳 yanagi (willow), 野菜 yasai (vegetables), 菜 na (greens), and ape.
