'''Seviper''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ハブネーク''' ''Habunake'') is a {{type|Poison}} Pokémon.

It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.

It is well known for its ongoing feud against {{p|Zangoose}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Seviper are fairly large snake Pokémon that are usually depicted scrunched up like an accordion. They are mostly black in color, but have several markings on their body. Seviper have yellow hexagon markings that run from their head to their tail, small yellow bumps where they touch the ground (this is presumably to help with movement) and various purple scar-like marks. Seviper has several different weapons it can use in battle, such as elongated red fangs that protrude from the mouth and a partially red-colored, bladelike tail that it can use to stab or swipe. Seviper also have fierce red eyes that make it able to use attacks like {{m|Glare}}.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Seviper can create a horrible poison that it can channel through either the tail or fangs, quickly dispatching prey. 

Prior to [[Generation V]], Seviper was the [[Signature move|only known Pokémon]] that learned {{m|Poison Tail}} through leveling up.

Seviper can also use {{m|Flamethrower}}, despite not being able to learn any other {{type|Fire}} moves (excluding {{m|Sunny Day}}).

===Behavior===
Seviper are bitter enemies with {{p|Zangoose}}, willing to battle them to the bitter end. It is suggested that this feud has lasted for quite some time. It sharpens its swordlike tail on hard rocks for battle, and may hide in tall grass and strike unwary prey with its {{m|Poison Fang|venomous fangs}}.

===Habitat===
[[File:Grassland Habitat.png|thumb|[[List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon]]]]
They live on places such as plains and forest to search for prey.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Seviper is a carnivore, hiding in tall grass. It uses its long tongue to sense prey. Then it strikes unawary prey with its venomous fangs. Their prey may include {{p|Zangoose}} due to their hatred towards them.

==In the anime==

===Major appearances===
====[[Jessie's Seviper]]====
Seviper first appeared in ''[[AG008|A Tail with a Twist]]''. [[Jessie]] was so impressed by how it beat up [[Ash's Treecko]], that she just had to capture it. After it bit off a chunk of her hair accidentally, she beat it up with her own two hands. After [[James]] and {{MTR}} calmed her back down, she captured it in a [[Poké Ball]].

====[[Lucy's Seviper]]====
The {{DL|Battle Frontier (Hoenn)|Battle Pike}} Queen {{FB|Pike Queen|Lucy}} owns a Seviper. She used it to fight off {{TRT}} and to battle [[Ash's Donphan]] in ''[[AG158|Queen of the Serpentine]]''.

====Other====
In ''[[DP053|Tears for Fears!]]'', the rivalry between both Seviper and Zangoose was highlighted upon a couple of times during the episode. Jessie's Seviper had picked up on the three other Zangoose that were making their way towards the team. It had immediately reacted and proceeded to do battle with them. Once learning of the fact that they would be fighting till the death, Jessie had tried to recall Seviper several times, though each time, Seviper would break back out of its Poké Ball to continue fighting.

A Seviper appeared in ''[[BW114|Saving Braviary!]]'' under the ownership of a {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}} named [[Schwarz and Weiss|Schwarz]].

==In the manga==
[[File:Lucy Seviper Adventures.png|thumb|Seviper in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
A wild Seviper attacked {{adv|Ruby}} and {{adv|Sapphire}} after the latter took him to her [[Secret Base]]. [[Chic|Her Torchic]] was able to put it down for the time being with its {{m|Ember}} barrage, but it rose back up after Sapphire fainted from an earlier wound. Ruby, seeing that there was no one around to see him fight, knocked it out cold before leaving Sapphire a letter and a change of clothes.

Another Seviper appeared in the wild in {{PAV|17}}, where it broke Ruby's [[Poké Ball]]s in unison with a wild {{p|Zangoose}}. The then-uncaptured {{adv|Mimi}} was able to take them both out, resulting in it being forced into his team (which provided a sharp contrast between the well-groomed [[Nana]] and [[Kiki]], and [[Mumu]] and itself).

As in the games, the [[Pike Queen Lucy]] uses a Seviper as her main Pokémon, which was able to defeat two [[rental Pokémon]] in an exhibition match, and later fought {{adv|Emerald}} before losing.

==Trivia==
* In the [[AG077|most infamous]] [[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]], Seviper was incorrectly claimed to be an evolution of {{p|Arbok}}.
* Although it is stated that Seviper and Zangoose are bitter enemies, they share several characteristics, such as being in the Field Egg Group, residing in the same Friend Area, and having a base stat total of 458 (which is unique to only them).
* Seviper is the only pure {{t|Poison}} type to not have an evolutionary relative.
* The pattern on the [[Symbol|Luck Symbol]] seems to be based on Seviper's diamond patterns.
* Seviper and Zangoose also have the exact opposite [[Experience]] group, with Seviper being in the Fluctuating group and Zangoose being in the Erratic group.

===Origin===
Seviper is based on a viper; specifically, the {{wp|habu}}, a type of venomous {{wp|snake}} that was often pitted against {{wp|mongoose}}s in roadside shows. This practice is now considered inhumane and is rarely seen today. Aside from its scars, the shape of its color pattern resembles that of the {{wp|Trimeresurus elegans | Sakishima habu}}. The rivalry it shares with Zangoose is based on the relationship between mongooses and snakes.

====Name origin====
Seviper is a combination of ''sever'' (to cut and detach) or ''severe'' (intense) and ''{{wp|viper}}''.

Habunake is a combination of 波布 ''{{wp|habu}}'' and ''snake''.
