Alakazam (Japanese: フーディン Foodin) is a Psychic-type Pokémon.
Biology
Physiology
An Alakazam is characterized by its human-like body structure and it's somewhat fox-like appearance. It has two large ears on the top of either side of its head, and two somewhat sinister looking eyes in the middle of its face. Its eyes lead down to its nose and mouth and its relatively large mustache that grows out on the two sides of the narrower section of its face. On both of its arms, there are brown colored pauldron shaped sections that are located on the shoulder region of its body. Following this, there is a normal section of its regular yellow-hued skin that leads to a brown vambrace-shaped section followed by Alakazam's yellow hands. Each of which have three fingers, and are noticeably missing the claws it had on each of them in its pre-evolved form. Its torso consists of a brown colored section of body similar to a fauld and a yellow colored crotch area. It's upper leg is yellow and connects to another brown colored poleyn type section followed by its somewhat large foot. Its foot consists of three toes, two toes in the front and one near the ankle of the foot, that each have one large white colored claw attached to it.

Trivia
- Alakazam weighs less than Kadabra.
- Alakazam is believed to be the second smartest Pokémon, after Uxie.
Origin
Alakazam's spoons are a reference to the magician Uri Geller, who claimed to have the ability to bend spoons with his mind. See the article on Kadabra for more information. Like Abra and Kadabra, Alakazam shares physical traits with foxes.
Name origin
Alakazam's name is another incantation used in stage magic, similar to Abracadabra. Its Japanese name can be spelled Houdin, and is probably a reference to Jean Eugène Robert-Houdin or Harry Houdini, who were both famous magicians.
