'''Lotad''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: ハスボー ''Hassboh'') is a {{2t|Water|Grass}}-type Pokémon.
}}
'''Lotad''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ハスボー''' ''Hassboh'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Grass}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].


=Biology=
It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Lombre}} starting at [[level]] 14, which evolves into {{p|Ludicolo}} when exposed to a [[Water Stone]].
==Physiology==
===Gender differences===
None.


===Special abilities===
==Biology==
==Behavior==
Lotad is a small, blue {{wp|plant}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with six stubby legs. It has large eyes and a wide, yellow mouth similar to a bill. A large leaf that resembles a lilypad covers its back. This large leaf allows Lotad to float across {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|ponds}}, and it will sometimes ferry smaller Pokémon on its back in this manner.
==Habitat==
[[Image:Watersedge.gif|left|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Water's-edge Pokémon|Water's-edge Pokémon]]]]


==Diet==
The head leaf is a natural dirt-repellent. The leaf can stay clean even after transporting Pokémon covered in mud. However, the leaf will wilt if Lotad becomes dehydrated. Its size and weight prevent Lotad from living on land, but, on rare occasions, it travels on land in search of clean water. Lotad is known to gather in lakes of good water quality. The lake's surfaces are occasionally covered in Lotad leaves.
''Main article: [[Pokémon food]]''


=In the anime=
Prior to [[Generation V]], Lotad and its evolved forms were the [[Signature Ability|only known Pokémon]] that could have {{a|Rain Dish}} as an [[Ability]].
[[Image:Lotad.JPG|right|thumb|200px|Lotad in [[DP025|''Oh Do You Know The Poffin Plan!'']]]]


[[Brock's Ludicolo|Lotad]] was first seen in ''[[AG012|The Lotad Lowdown]]''. Three sisters named Natalie, Nicole, and Rita owned a flower shop and a bunch of Lotad. One of these Lotad were given to [[Brock]]. This particular Lotad was a bit slow and sometimes stared blankly for a few seconds before attacking. It evolved into {{p|Lombre}} in ''[[AG063|Take the Lombre Home]]''.
===Evolution===
Lotad evolves into {{p|Lombre}}, which evolves into {{p|Ludicolo}}.


Another Lotad appeared in ''[[DP025|Oh Do You Know The Poffin Plan]]''. It belonged to [[Forsythia]].
(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data→Evolution data]].)

==In the anime==
===Main series===
[[File:Keanan Lotad.png|thumb|250px|Lotad in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
=====[[Brock's Lotad]]=====
In ''[[AG012|The Lotad Lowdown]]'', three sisters named [[Natalie]], [[Nicole]], and {{OBP|Rita|AG012}} owned a flower shop and a horde of Lotad. One of these Lotad were given to {{an|Brock}}. This particular Lotad was a bit slow and sometimes stared blankly for a few seconds before attacking. In ''[[AG063|Take the Lombre Home]]'', it evolved into a Lombre. It then evolved into a Ludicolo in ''[[AG105|Once in a Mawile]]''.
 
=====Other=====
In ''[[DP025|Oh Do You Know The Poffin Plan!]]'', [[Forsythia]]'s Lotad was the only one that knew her normally shy {{p|Roserade}} was the one secretly and fearlessly protecting her [[Berry]] garden. It later saved Forsythia from {{TRT}}'s mecha and then convinced Roserade to continue fighting Team Rocket without its red scarf — the only thing that gave it the confidence to act.
 
In ''[[XY056|One for the Goomy!]]'', multiple Lotad were startled when [[James's Inkay]] attacked the river with {{m|Psybeam}}. They subsequently attacked Team Rocket, as well as {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}, with {{m|Energy Ball}}, thus separating the groups from each other.

{{main|Lotad (TCG)}}


{{Side game|
==Trivia==
type=water |
* Lotad's evolutionary family has several unique attributes:
Trozei=yes |
** They are the only {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a dual [[Egg Group]] of {{egg|Water 1}} and {{egg|Grass}}.
rarity=Common |
** They are the only Pokémon that can have the [[Ability]] {{a|Rain Dish}} without it being their Hidden Ability.
Dungeon=yes |
** They are the only {{type|Water}} Pokémon in the Grass Egg Group.
body=1 |
* Lotad can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Seedot}}:
rate=8% |
** Both of them are {{type|Grass}} {{cat|Generation III Pokémon}}. Lotad is exclusive to {{game|Sapphire}}, while Seedot is exclusive to Pokémon Ruby, with both Pokémon found in the same locations in their respective versions.
area=Tadpole Pond |
*** Additionally, both Pokémon can be found in {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}} by using the [[dual-slot mode]], with Lotad requiring Pokémon Sapphire, and Seedot requiring Pokémon Ruby.
P1= I have to be careful to not let my big leaf wilt... |
** They are {{cat|Pokémon that are part of a three-stage evolutionary line}} and need an [[Evolution stone]] to reach their fully evolved form.
P2= Oh, this is not good. My health is down by one-half. |
** They have the same base stat total of 220.
P3= I've had it... My leaf is dried out... |
** Both evolutionary families also have an [[Ability]] that doubles their {{stat|Speed}} depending on the [[weather]], those being {{a|Swift Swim}} and {{a|Chlorophyll}}.
PL= Look! I've leveled up! My big leaf is lush and green, too! |
* Lotad is tied with {{p|Sunkern}} and {{p|Bramblin}} for having the lowest base {{stat|Defense}} of all {{type|Grass}} Pokémon.
Partner=no |
Ranger=yes |
typeG= Water |
typeA= Water |
field= Soak |
browser= Lotad hides in water, disguised as a plant. It spits bubbles when it jumps up. |
