Yamper is an Electric-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VIII, native to the Galar region. Known as the Puppy Pokémon, Yamper is beloved for its playful demeanor and its unique ability to generate electricity from the base of its tail when it runs. Its diet primarily consists of berries and treats, which it often receives from humans it assists. Yamper has a strong natural curiosity and a tendency to chase anything that moves, especially round objects like Poké Balls, which it carries in its mouth. This behavior is not just playful; it’s a key part of its biology, as running helps it produce the electricity it needs. Yamper evolves into Boltund starting at level 25. In the games, Yamper is often found in the Wild Area and is a popular choice for trainers due to its lovable personality and useful abilities. In the anime, Yamper is featured prominently as a companion to characters like Professor Cerise and Goh, further cementing its role as an endearing and loyal Pokémon. Its design, reminiscent of a corgi, has made it a fan favorite, contributing to its cultural significance as a symbol of companionship and energetic charm within the Pokémon universe.
