Weezing is a Poison-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

Type: Poison

Abilities:

• Levitate (formerly): Grants immunity to Ground-type moves.
• Neutralizing Gas: Cancels out the effects of all Abilities in battle.
• Stench (Hidden Ability): May cause the opponent to flinch.

Physical Characteristics:

• Weezing consists of two spherical, grayish-purple bodies connected by a thin tube.
• Each body features multiple crater-like pores that emit toxic gases.
• It has a grinning face with sharp teeth and a smaller, angrier face on the secondary orb.
• Greenish smoke often surrounds it, emitting from the pores.

Behavior and Habitat:

• Commonly found in urban areas with high pollution levels, such as factories and cities.
• Weezing thrives in environments with toxic air and waste, using them as food sources.
• Known to be territorial and will expel toxins to defend itself.
• Despite its toxic nature, it can be surprisingly loyal to a skilled trainer.

In Battle:

• Weezing is a robust physical defender with decent special capabilities.
• Notable moves include: Sludge Bomb, Toxic, and Explosion.
• Effective against Grass and Fairy types due to its Poison attribute.
• Vulnerable to Psychic and Ground types unless protected by Levitate.

Evolution:

• Evolves from Koffing at level 35.
• In the Galar region, it can evolve into Galarian Weezing, a dual-type Poison/Fairy Pokémon.

Interesting Facts:

• Galarian Weezing has a unique appearance resembling smokestacks with top hats, symbolizing the industrial era.
• Its Galarian form purifies the air, unlike its traditional counterpart.
• Weezing is known for its signature move, Toxic Spikes, which lays a trap of poison spikes on the battlefield.
• The design is inspired by pollution concerns and industrial waste, reflecting its urban habitat preferences.
