Medicham (Japanese: チャーレム, Hepburn: Chaaremu) (MED-uh-cham) is a Fighting/Psychic-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III that is the evolved form of Meditite.

Biology

Physiology

Medicham is a humanoid, bipedal Pokémon that resembles a yoga practitioner. It has a gray body with red and yellow adornments. A red headpiece with three bulb-like extensions covers the upper portion of its head: one on top and one on either side. The bulb on top is short on a female Medicham. Its large, focused eyes are slightly covered by the headpiece, and its red lips seem to be in a rounded or puckered position. Its legs appear to be covered with puffy, red pants that have a large yellow spot on the knees and yellow bands next to the hips.

Shiny Medicham are blue and slightly yellowish instead of red and white.

Behavior

Medicham is so fond of meditation that sometimes forget their own needs. It is said that through meditation, Medicham heightens the energy inside its body and sharpens its sixth sense. Some people claim to have seen levitating in full meditation Medicham. They usually live in temples located in places high and cold, with Meditite. This Pokémon hides its presence by merging itself with fields and mountains. They are especially known for their willpower, their agility in combat and power with martial arts. Part of this flexibility arises precisely from his meditations, which give the power to reach to anticipate enemy movements. They are also able to sense the feelings of its trainer, similar to Gardevoir and Lucario.

Gender differences

Male Medichams have thicker head plumes than females.

Evolution

Medicham is the evolved form of Meditite, which evolves at level 37. Medicham also has a Mega Evolution.
