Froakie (Japanese: ケロマツ, Hepburn: Keromatsu) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VI and is the Water-type Starter of Kalos.
Biology
Physiology
Froakie is an amphibious Pokémon that resembles a frog. It has cyan blue skin covering most of its body, and a scarf-like collar of frothy white bubbles around its neck. Its front feet are white, and it has a dark blue line on its back that extends vertically across its face. Notably, its eyes are large, protuberant and bright yellow. It has a round bubble-like white feature on its nose. Its back legs are long and powerfully-built for jumping.
Behavior
The Water-type Pokémon Froakie is both light and strong, making it capable of jumping incredibly high. The bubbles on its chest and back protect it from attacks. Froakie may appear absent-minded, but in truth it pays close attention to its surroundings at all times.
Evolution
Froakie evolves into Frogadier at Level 16, and later on into Greninja at Level 36.

Trivia
- Froakie is tied with Rowlet as the smallest unevolved starter Pokémon at 1'00.
- Froakie's evolution line is based off the rogue class in various RPG games.
- Froakie bears some resemblances to "Keroppi" the frog from "Hello Kitty".
Origin
Froakie is based on a frog, more precisely, a tree frog. Its bubbly and foamy scarf it has is based on "frog foam nests" that are often created as a nest to protect their eggs. Its foam also slightly resembles a backpack or a hood, a reference to the dorobō, where they often use bags of stolen goods as a hoody to conceal their identity.
Etymology
Froakie's name comes from the animal frog, froth and croaky. It could also derive from coquí, a type of frog.
