Under rare circumstances, some {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} have been known to combine with other Pokémon or even [[Human|people]]. This phenomenon, sometimes called '''fusion''', has appeared across various [[Pokémon]] media, including the {{pkmn|games}}, {{pkmn|anime}}, and {{pkmn|manga}}.

A few Pokémon [[Evolution]]s are said to result from the merging of two or more Pokémon, with separation resulting in [[devolution]] in certain cases. Other Pokémon can combine as part of a [[List of Pokémon with form differences|form change]]. Furthermore, some Pokémon are actually themselves a combination of multiple Pokémon.

In the {{pkmn|games}}, {{p|Dugtrio}} is often referred to as three {{p|Diglett}} triplets. However, the Pokédex also states that Dugtrio are actually three Diglett that emerged from one body. This is contradicted by the {{pkmn|anime}} episode ''[[EP114|The Underground Round Up]]'', which instead refers to Dugtrio as being formed when three Diglett combine.

Two {{p|Beldum}} fuse together to evolve into {{p|Metang}}, and two Metang fuse to evolve into {{p|Metagross}}. When Metagross [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolves]], it temporarily links up with two more Beldum and a Metang.
Two {{p|Beldum}} fuse together to evolve into {{p|Metang}}, and two Metang fuse to evolve into {{p|Metagross}}. When Metagross [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolves]], it temporarily links up with two more Beldum and a Metang.


This method of Evolution has never been shown in any Pokémon media, though it is mentioned in the Pokédex. In ''[[AG126|Saved by the Beldum]]'', the only {{pkmn|anime}} episode to date to show a Beldum Evolution, when [[Morrison]]'s Beldum evolves into Metang, it "creates" another Beldum and newly developed main body to evolve, instead of fusing with another Beldum. Despite this, in ''[[XY116|The Synchronicity Test!]]'', the Pokédex claims that "Metang is created from the union of two Beldum."
