Read more ↓Mareep is an Electric-type Pokémon introduced in Generation II, making its debut in the Johto region. It is known as the "Wool Pokémon" and is the first stage in an evolutionary line that includes Flaaffy and Ampharos. Mareep's design is inspired by a sheep, but with distinct yellow wool that generates static electricity. In the wild, Mareep typically reside in grassy fields and meadows, often seen grazing peacefully. Their wool continuously grows, and while it's fully shed in the summer, it quickly regrows within a week, a natural process that helps them regulate their electrical charge. Mareep are generally docile creatures, but when startled or threatened, they can discharge electricity from their wool. In the Pokémon games, Mareep is often an early-game Electric-type option, prized for its strong special attack evolution line. In the anime, Mareep have appeared in various episodes, showcasing their gentle nature and electrical abilities. Their charming appearance and useful typing have made them a beloved Pokémon among fans.
