Drampa (Japanese: ジジーロン Jijilong) is a dual-type Normal/Dragon Pokémon introduced in Generation VII.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

Biology

Drampa flying

Drampa is a serpentine Pokémon similar to a Chinese dragon. Most of its skin is bluish-green, but the lower half of its face and the underside of its neck is a pale green. There are three spots on each of its sides that are also light green. It has pink eyes with rounded, yellow eyebrows, short whiskers resembling a mustache, floppy ears, and a small, white beard with a circular extension. On top of its head is a mop of white hair split into four rounded sections: two draped down either side of its head. Fluffy white fur drapes the lower half of its body and conceals its arms when they are tucked against its chest. When its arms are spread, two short claws are revealed on each hand. It has a bushy white tail with a small, curved spike at the base.

This draconic Pokémon lives alone in the mountains 10,000 feet above sea level. The Berries it feeds on do not grow at this altitude, so it descends to the base of the mountains daily at dawn. It loves communicating with people and Pokémon, and is especially gentle with children. It will often appear in areas where children gather and play with them. Despite its gentle nature, it becomes enraged if a child it cares for is hurt, and can go as far as to burn the bully's house down if able. As seen in the anime, Drampa is capable of flying.

Prior to Generation VIII, Drampa was the only known Pokémon that could have Berserk as an Ability.

Trivia

• Drampa can be seen as a counterpart to Turtonator. Both are Dragon-type Pokémon with the same base stat total. They also share the same stat values, but with different distributions aside from Speed. While Drampa is exclusive to Moon, Ultra Moon, and Shield, Turtonator is exclusive to Pokémon Sun, Ultra Sun, and Sword.
• Drampa was designed by Hitoshi Ariga.
• Drampa is tied with Porygon-Z, Mega Pidgeot, and Bloodmoon Ursaluna for the highest base Special Attack stat of all Normal-type Pokémon.

Origin

Drampa appears to be based on a Chinese dragon, such as the Zhulong (torch dragon), a mythological creature with the face of an old man and the body of a dragon. Its friendly and caring disposition towards children, elderly appearance, and name may be a reference to grandparents. Its behavior may also be based on Chinese dragons being benevolent creatures. The white fur on the lower half of its body resembles cumulus clouds. This makes Drampa resemble a Chinese dragon flying through clouds.

Name origin

Drampa may be a combination of dragon and grampa (a variation on grandpa).

Jijilong may be a combination of 爺 jijī (an informal term for an old man) and 龍 Lóng (Chinese dragon).
