Weavile (マニューラ,Manyula) is a creature from thePokémon series.
Origin[edit]
Weavile is a Dark/Ice-type Pokémon introduced inGeneration IV, and it was among the very first Generation IV Pokémon ever revealed, making its official debut in the movieLucario and the Mystery of Mew. Weavile is categorized within the Pokédex at #461 as the "Sharp Claw Pokémon". It evolves fromSneasel when leveling up at night while holding aRazor Claw. It is very fast and focuses on physical attacks.
False Swipe is a physical Normal-type introduced inGeneration II. It has 40 base power, 100% accuracy, and the property of not being able to KO its target, leaving it with 1 HP left; it is thus rarely used in competitive play, but very valuable when trying to catch wild Pokémon. Weavile, like several other Pokémon, can learn it withTM54.
InSuper Smash Bros Brawl[edit]
As a Poké Ball Pokémon[edit]
Weavile appears as aPoké Ball Pokémon inBrawl. When summoned, Weavile will use False Swipe and slash at other foes on the stage furiously. On the ground, the attack only does 1%damage with noknockback, but any opponent that gets hit will bestunned. Weavile moves back and forth for a long duration of time, trapping opponents for that period of time. When used on an airborne opponent, the attack has high base knockback but low knockback scaling. Despite the move False Swipe reducing the opponent's HP to up to 1 HP, never below, in thePokémon games, this move canKO inBrawl (albeit at very high percents). LikeFox Illusion, if Weavile darts off an edge, it will KO itself.
Weavile has a spawn chance of30/586.
