Biology

Physiology

Frogadier is an amphibious Pokémon that resembles a frog. It has deep blue- and cyan-colored skin. Its eyes are yellow with cyan eyelids, its nostrils are white and slightly protuberant, and it has a flowing scarf-like collar of frothy, white bubbles around its neck. Its underbelly is mainly cyan in color, while its top half is deep blue. Its has long skinny front legs, and powerfully-built back legs. The tips of its feet are deep blue with three round white toes on its front legs and two deep blue toes on its back legs. It uses its powerfully-built back legs to jump to incredible heights. When it evolves from Froakie, its jumping skill improves dramatically.

Behavior

Frogadier can throw bubble-covered pebbles with precise control, hitting empty cans up to a hundred feet away. During battle, a Frogadier confounds its opponents by leaping about the ceiling or into trees. Frogadier also tend to be hit-and-run attackers, blindsiding opponents with swift strikes before darting away and shrouding themselves with foam.

Natural abilities

They often disguise themselves in cloaks of bubbles near the water’s surface as they patiently wait for prey.

Evolution

Frogadier is the evolved form of Froakie, evolving when it reaches Level 16. It later evolves into Greninja at Level 36.

Trivia

  • It is the lightest Water-type mid-evolution starter Pokémon.

Origin

Frogadier appears to be based on a frog, specifically a horned frog due to the horns it sports. Its bubble scarf is based on frog foam nests, nests made by frogs to protect their eggs. Its face being a darker shade of blue, its scarf, and its crouched position may also make it based on ninjas.

Etymology

Frogadier comes from frog and brigadier (an army rank).
