Dreepy (Japanese: ドラメシヤ, HepburnDorameshiya) is a Dragon/Ghost-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VIII.

Biology[]

Physiology[]

Dreepy is a green Pokémon that resembles Anorith. It has a green head with two yellow eyes and a darker colored upper jaw. Six spikes extend from its head. Its body is a green ghost tail with two simple arms and three spikes near the end of its tail.

Shiny Dreepy have a blue head and yellow tips.

Behavior[]

Dreepy are very fond of their former homes, often wandering their past homes after being reborn. One possesses next to none battle skills, but gets stronger by training with its friends. They like to fly at high speeds over the ocean during evenings.

In Paldea, Dreepy are known to bite on Clauncher despite not feeding on them, likely as a result of vestigial behavior while alive. They also like to play with Pokémon in the water.

Dreepy are also seen on both Drakloak and Dragapult; the former takes care of them until they evolve, while the latter uses them as living missiles; despite this, the Dreepy used by Dragapult are excited to be shot out.

When being taken care of by Drakloak, if their guardian is defeated in battle, Dreepy will abandon them for better caretakers.

Evolution[]

Dreepy evolves into Drakloak at level 50 and will later evolve into Dragapult at level 60.

  • Sword

    After being reborn as a ghost Pokémon, Dreepy wanders the areas it used to inhabit back when it was alive in prehistoric seas.

  • Shield

    If this weak Pokémon is by itself, a mere child could defeat it. But if Dreepy has friends to help it train, it can evolve and become much stronger.

  • Scarlet

    In the evening, groups of Dreepy will fly at high speeds over the ocean and poke at Pokémon in the water for fun.

  • Violet

    It has a habit of biting at Clauncher even though it doesn't feed on them. This is said to be vestigial behavior from when Dreepy was alive.

Trivia[]

Origin[]

Dreepy may be based on a Diplocaulus (an extinct genus of amphibians) and a dart, arrow, or missile. Its Dragon typing may come from the Olm, a salamander species in central Europe who was mistaken for a dragon baby.

Etymology[]

Dreepy comes from the words "dragon" and "creepy". It may also include "dreary".
