Read more ↓Greninja, the Ninja Pokémon, is a Water/Dark-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VI with the release of Pokémon X and Y. It is the final evolution of Froakie, evolving from Frogadier. Known for its agility and stealth, Greninja can compress water into sharp-edged shurikens, which it throws with incredible speed and precision. Its unique ability, Battle Bond, allows it to transform into Ash-Greninja, a more powerful form, a concept prominently featured in the Pokémon anime with Ash Ketchum's Greninja. This bond-phenomenon made Greninja a fan favorite and a formidable force in competitive play. Greninja typically inhabits shadowy, secluded areas, often near bodies of water where it can practice its ninja-like movements and ambush prey. Its diet consists mainly of fish and other small aquatic creatures. Culturally, Greninja embodies the cool, stealthy ninja archetype, resonating with a wide audience and cementing its status as one of the most popular Pokémon from its generation.
