Weezing (Japanese: マタドガス Matadogas) is a Poison-type Pokémon.
Weezing has the ability Levitate, which makes it immune to Template:Type2 attacks.
Weezing evolves from Koffing starting at Level 35.
Biology
Physiology
Weezing look like two Koffing stuck together, with one bigger than the other. The smaller head only has a circle on it, instead of the skull-and-crossbones.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Each head had a different toxin in it. When one of the heads is inflated, the other deflates, mixing the gases. By doing this multiple times, it becomes more toxic and noxious. Unusually enough, high-grade perfumes could be made from Weezing. It's also prone to exploding.
Behavior
Habitat
Weezing live in urban and suburban areas.
Diet
Main article: Pokémon food
Weezing feed on the gases, dust, and microorganisms emitted by garbage and toxic waste.
In the animeIn the manga
In the Pokémon Special manga
Both Koga and his daughter, Janine, have Weezing as a part of their arsenals.
In the TCGIn the TFG
One Weezing figure has been released.
Other appearances
When released from a Poké Ball, Weezing will emit Poison Gas that juggles any opponent who comes near it.
Weezing is also a float in the Poké Float stage. It appears as Chikorita leaves. Once Slowpoke appears, it will slowly deflate and move to the top of the screen.
Trophy information
The evolved form of Koffing, Weezing is basically a pair of Koffing fused together. They tend to float in the air and emit gas or noxious smoke from the outgrowths that cover their bodies. As strange as it may seem, diluting Weezing omissions as much as possible creates one of the most exquisite perfumes known to man.

Trivia
- In the English version of the game, Weezing was originally going to have the name La, the abbreviation of Los Angeles.
- Weezing and Koffing are the the only pure Template:Type2 Pokémon immune to Template:Type2 attacks, due to their in-game ability, Levitate.
- Its sprites constantly change the location of where the two Koffing are attached. Because of this, it is possible to assume that it is different for all Weezing.
Origin
Considering its looks, its ability to float, and its tendency to explode, it may have been based upon a floating naval mine.
Name origin
Weezing's name is a corruption of the word wheezing. Its Japanese name may come from 又 mata, again, and 獰 dō, meaning bad, or 毒 doku, meaning poisonous, and gas. Essentially, it is a doubling of Koffing's Japanese name, and thus a doubling of Koffing – which is exactly what Weezing is.
In other languages
- German: Smogmog - Doubling of Koffing's German name.
- French: Smogogo - Doubling of Koffing's French name.
- Korean: 또도사스 Ttodogaseu
