Read more ↓Pancham is a Fighting-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VI, first appearing in the Kalos region. Known as the Playful Pokémon, Pancham resembles a young panda with a perpetually stern or grumpy expression, which it tries to maintain to look tough. Despite its efforts to appear intimidating, Pancham is inherently good-natured and often struggles to suppress its natural cheerfulness, especially when its head is patted. It carries a small leaf in its mouth, which is not merely for decoration; it is believed to be a source of its power or a way to communicate with its evolving form, Pangoro. Pancham evolves into Pangoro starting at level 32 if there is a Dark-type Pokémon in the player's party. Its natural habitat is typically dense forests and bamboo groves, where it practices its fighting moves and forages for food. Its diet primarily consists of bamboo shoots and leaves. In the games and anime, Pancham often plays the role of a feisty but ultimately endearing companion, showcasing its determination and loyalty. Its Fighting typing makes it strong against Normal, Ice, Rock, Dark, and Steel types, but weak against Flying, Psychic, and Fairy types. The species embodies a blend of cuteness and aspiring toughness, making it a popular and memorable Pokémon from its generation.
