Read more ↓Sobble is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VIII, native to the Galar region. It is known as the Water Lizard Pokémon and is one of the three starter Pokémon available to trainers in *Pokémon Sword* and *Shield*. Sobble evolves into Drizzile at level 16 and then into Inteleon at level 35. Its natural habitat includes aquatic environments where it can utilize its camouflage abilities. Sobble is characterized by its timid and somewhat melancholic nature; when it cries, its tears are said to have the chemical punch of 100 onions, causing anyone nearby to cry uncontrollably. This unique defense mechanism is a central part of its lore and often explored in the anime, where its emotional journey from a shy Pokémon to a confident Inteleon is a recurring theme. In the games, its evolution line plays a significant role as a reliable special attacker. Sobble's design, with its large, expressive eyes and light blue coloration, has made it a popular and endearing character in the Pokémon universe, symbolizing vulnerability and growth.
