'''Politoed''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ニョロトノ''' ''Nyorotono'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].

==Biology==

Politoed acts as a leader to {{p|Poliwag}} and {{p|Poliwhirl}}, which gather from afar upon hearing its cry. Politoed likes to expand its throat and sing. When three or more assemble, they sing in a chorus with a loud, bellowing voice. The curled hair on Politoed's head is considered proof of its status as a king. The longer and curlier Politoed's hair is, the more Poliwag and Poliwhirl will obey it, and the more it is respected by other Politoed. Politoed is rarely found in the wild, though it is usually seen living [[List of Pokémon by habitat#Water's-edge Pokémon|by the water's edge]].
