Misty's Togetic (Japanese: カスミのトゲチック Kasumi's Togechick) was the sixth Pokémon Misty got in the Kanto region. Its voice actress as both a Togepi and Togetic was Satomi Kōrogi.
History
Togepi was found as a Pokémon egg by Ash Ketchum in Grandpa Canyon in Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon. Ash, Misty, Brock and Meowth fought over the egg and competed to determine who would be the eventual owner. When the Pokémon Egg hatched into Togepi, the first thing it saw was Misty, and it chose her as its trainer, thinking that she was its mother.
Although Togepi appeared harmless, it sometimes used Metronome to get out of dangerous situations. The first time it happened was in Pikachu Re-Volts. Butch and Cassidy's Drowzee was using Metronome to attack Ash and his friends. Misty's Togepi began using it, causing an explosion that sent Butch and Cassidy flying. It happened again in In the Pink. A Rhyhorn was about to charge the group when Togepi used Metronome to use Teleport. It also used the move later in the episode to stop a Hyper Beam attack by a Nidoking by using Reflect.
Despite the fact that Misty knew Togepi could battle, she only used it one time to battle Ash. In The Totodile Duel, Ash was using his Pikachu to battle Misty for ownership of a Totodile. Misty used Togepi, because she knew Pikachu would never attack it, as Pikachu would often babysit it. Using Charm, she ended up defeating Pikachu.
As Ash, Brock, May and Max met Misty near the gate to the Mirage Kingdom in The Princess and the Togepi, it was kidnapped again by Jessie, James and Meowth, who were temporarily working for Colonel Hansen, a crooked Mirage Kingdom official. Colonel Hansen wanted to get his hands on Misty's Togepi so he could rule the Mirage Kingdom. Since Colonel Hansen is an impure-hearted person, his taking over the Mirage Kingdom would destroy the Togepi Paradise. It later evolved into a Togetic in A Togepi Mirage!, in order to protect the other Togepi. When Togetic was injured by Colonel Hansen, Misty promptly sent out her Gyarados and defeated Hansen's Shedinja with a Flamethrower attack. After seeing the damage Hansen had done trying to reach the Mirage Kingdom, Misty released her Togetic to protect the Kingdom, the Togepi Paradise, and the Togepi who lived there.

Trivia
- Before Misty hatched her Azurill, Togetic was the only Pokémon she owned that was not of the Template:Type2.
- Despite this, Togetic can never become a Water-type, unlike Azurill.
- Togetic is the first anime Pokémon hatched from an egg that could evolve and can evolve again (the second being Brock's Happiny), though it could not evolve again the last time it was seen.
- It's currently the only Pokémon that officially belongs to a main character despite never having been placed in a Poké Ball (however, one can argue that Haunter has that position, as both Ash and Sabrina, in both the original and the dubbed version, stated that he got Haunter, implying it's officially his Pokémon).
- Togetic is the only anime Pokémon hatched from an egg to never be placed in a Poké Ball. Azurill was hinted at having been put in a Poké Ball when Misty returned to the Gym due to its absence in The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon.
