Ludicolo (Japanese: ルンパッパ Runpappa) is a dual-type Water/Grass Pokémon introduced in Generation III.

It evolves from Lombre when exposed to a Water Stone. It is the final form of Lotad.

Biology

Ludicolo is a bipedal Pokémon that appears to be a mixture of a pineapple and a duck. There is a green sombrero-like growth on its head that is similar to lily pad. Growing out of the top of its head is short brown stem with a yellow spiky upper portion. It has black eyes surrounded by a patch of green and an orange bill. Its body is covered with shaggy yellow fur and has several, zigzagging brown stripes. The female has thinner stripes than the male. It has large, green hands with two black lines on its palms. It has thick green legs with a black circle on the underside of its feet. Ludicolo becomes more powerful when it hears festive music and will appear near laughing children on hikes. As it becomes more energetic and active, it will break into a dance. Ludicolo lives near the water's edge.

Trivia

  • Ludicolo and its pre-evolutions, Lotad and Lombre, have several unique attributes:
  • Ludicolo's evolutionary line are very similar with Shiftry's family. Both of them are part Grass-type, they first evolve at level 14, a respective evolutionary stone is used to reach the final stage, are version-exclusive between Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, and are based on japanese legendary creatures or yokai: Ludicolo's family are based on the kappa and Shiftry's is based on the tengu. They both also have fur or hair covering portions of their bodies.

Origin

Ludicolo may be based on a duck, platypus, kappa, and a giant colocynth or pineapple. With its sombrero-shaped head, poncho-like body hair, and association with music and dance, it also seems to be based on a stereotypical Mexican dancer.

Name origin

Ludicolo may be a combination of ludic (aimlessly playful) or ludicrous (laughable or absurd) and colocynth (a plant that bears a round, yellow and green fruit). Colo may be an anagram of loco, the Spanish word for crazy. The name may also come from paludicolous (inhabiting a swamp or marsh).

Alternatively, it may be a reference to the Spanish word ridículo meaning ridiculous, just as Lombre is a reference to the Spanish word hombre.

Runpappa may be a combination of ルンルン runrun (happy or bouncy) and pappa (the sound of a rapid drumbeat). It may also be a combination of rumba and kappa.
