Abra (ケーシィ Keeshyi) is a Psychic-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

Biology

Physiology

Abra in the anime.

Abra is a golden-brown, human-like fox Pokémon with three fingers and toes on both arms and legs. Its eyes are mostly closed because of its tendency to sleep a lot. The shoulders are brown. Abra has a long tail with one brown stripe. Feet have 3 sharp claws, 2 on the front and 1 on the heel. Abra stands 2'11" and has the same physical appearance, no matter what its gender is. It has slightly-pointed ears and its body looks slightly like it has a type of body armour on its top half.

Natural abilities

It has been known to sleep 18 hours a day, as it needs its rest for its telekinetic abilities. Abra also can teleport away from danger by the means of using the move Teleport. It can even perform this technique while asleep. If it doesn't get enough sleep, its powers fade.

Evolution

Abra evolves into Kadabra at level 16 and then into Alakazam via trading.

Trivia

  • In the app Pokémon GO, Abra will always run away if you don't catch it on the first go.
  • In Pokémon Gold, Abra's sprite shows it with one of its eyes open for the first time.
    • However, Abra is implied to have its eyes open in its sprite where glowing effects are shown coming from its eyes in the game Pokémon Pinball, a game that predates Pokémon Gold and Silver by 8 months. Though, Pokémon Gold and Silver marks the first occurrence of this in a mainline title.
  • In Super Smash Bros., Abra is one of the Pokémon that can be freed from Pokéballs. During this time, it uses the move Teleport.
  • Abra is one of the collectable spirits in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
  • Abra has the highest Special Attack among all unevolved Pokémon.

Origin

Abra's appearance seems to take inspiration from mammalian animals associated with magic, possibly cats or goats. Its human-like appearance may also make it similar to a psychic prodigy.

Etymology

Abra's nomenclature along with his evolutions are based on a magician's famous magic words: "Abra, Kadabra, and Alakazam".
