Swoobat (Japanese: ココロモリ, Hepburn: Kokoromori) (SWOO-bat) is a Psychic/Flying type Pokémon introduced in Generation V.

Biology

Physiology

Swoobat is a large fuzzy bat-like Pokémon. It shares many traits with its pre-evolution Woobat. It sports just a slightly larger pair of wings and they share a heart-shaped nostril on their noses. However, Swoobat is a much darker shade of blue and has a clear pair of eyes, fused-together ears, a chubby, spherical torso, and legs. It also has a strangely shaped tail and tuft of white fur around its neck. Whenever it flies, its legs are tucked under its body and only its feet are shown.

Behavior

Most of the time, these Pokémon use their waves to navigate; however, when threatened, they can instead produce frequencies capable of pulverizing stone and concrete. Releasing such strong sound pulses tires them out quickly, however, rendering them temporarily unable to fly. By shaking their tails vigorously, they can further increase the power of their waves. Despite their destructive potential, however, Swoobat rarely ever need to resort to using such attacks. They are very friendly Pokémon that are almost always found in pairs. Recently, researchers have discovered that the ultrasonic waves emitted by idle male Swoobat while courting (which they are almost always in the process of doing) have a positive effect on the moods of both people and Pokémon.

Natural Abilities

Swoobat is able to emit sound waves of varying intensity. Stronger sound waves emitted by Swoobat are able to destroy rocks. However, if a much more powerful wave is emitted, Swoobat will lose its energy and lack of flight for a brief moment.

Evolution

Swoobat is the evolved form of Woobat. It evolves after leveling up with high friendship.

Appearances

Anime

A flock of Swoobat appeared in Emolga and the New Volt Switch! when Iris was trying to catch Emolga. They produced very noisy sound waves and were using Round to do widespread damage.

Trivia

• Woobat and Swoobat are the only Unova Pokémon that evolve by Friendship, not level up or trade.

Origin

Like its pre-evolution, Swoobat is likely based on the Honduran white bat, or the heart-nosed bat.

Etymology

Swoobat comes from swoon (to be filled with great emotion, usually described with love) and bat.

Its Japanese name, Kokoromori, comes from kokoro (heart) and komori (bat).
