==Biology==
==Biology==
Persian is a large, quadruped, feline Pokémon. Its fur is pale tan with the exception of its black-rimmed ears. It has a short muzzle with a small, black nose, red eyes with slit pupils, rounded ears, a pair of pointed teeth in its upper jaw, and three whiskers on either side of its face. Its thick whiskers are very sensitive to changes in air movements, enabling it to detect its prey by movement alone. In the center of its forehead is a red jewel. Its long tail has a distinctive curl at the end. Persian communicates with body language, and holds its tail upright to signal its intention to pounce. It has long legs and three-toed paws with retractible claws. Persian's lithe muscles also enable it to walk without making a sound.

Persian normally lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|towns and cities}}. Although popular for its elegance, it is extremely difficult to raise as a pet due to its fickle and temperamental personality. It will scratch anyone, including its Trainer, with little or no provocation, and has been observed ripping its prey apart for no discernible reason. However, when a Persian is yanked by its whiskers, it becomes temporarily docile for unknown reasons. In the past, {{m|Pay Day}} was its [[signature move]].
Persian normally lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon|towns and cities}}. Although popular for its elegance, it is extremely difficult to raise as a pet due to its fickle and temperamental personality. It will scratch anyone, including its Trainer, with little or no provocation, and has been observed ripping its prey apart for no discernible reason. However, when Persian is yanked by its whiskers, it becomes temporarily docile for unknown reasons. It is popular among rich people and is targeted by hunters for its jewel. Its relationship with {{p|Perrserker}} is one of mutual disdain, as Persian's refined and elegant personality clashes with Perrserker's barbaric nature. As mentioned in [[Pokémon Sleep]], Persian is known to clean and groom itself even when asleep.<ref>''[[Pokémon Sleep|Sleep Style Dex]]''</ref> Even when asleep, Persian maintains its striking and haughty expression.


Alolan Persian has a body that is similar to its regular counterpart, but is grey-blue in color. Its face, however, has a different shape, being larger and more rounded with noticeable jowls. This distinctive face is admired by the people of Alola. Its eyes are usually in a half-closed state, and instead of a red forehead jewel, it has a blue jewel. In behavior, it is described as highly intelligent and having an even higher opinion of itself. It uses underhanded tactics in battle, but its haughty personality causes it to underestimate opponents.
Persian and its evolutionary relatives are the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Pay Day}} by leveling up.


==In the anime==
===Forms===
===In the main series===
Persian has a [[regional form]]: {{rf|Alolan}} Persian.
[[File:Giovanni Persian.png|250px|thumb|Persian in the [[anime]]]]
====Major appearances====
=====[[Giovanni's Persian]]=====
{{an|Giovanni}} has a Persian that is his primary Pokémon. It first appeared in ''[[EP015|Battle Aboard the St. Anne]]''. While it is almost always seen at his side, it was only seen battling once. Meowth of Team Rocket seems to be its "rival" as Giovanni's "top cat."


=====Other=====
Alolan Persian has a body that is similar to its regular counterpart, but it has blue-gray fur. Its face has a different shape, being larger and more rounded with noticeable jowls. This distinctive face, along with its high-class softer-than-velvet fur coat, is admired by the people of Alola. Its eyes are usually in a half-closed state, and instead of a red forehead jewel, it has a blue jewel. The jewel, though different in appearance, is made of mostly the same material the one on a regular Persian. In behavior, it is described as highly intelligent and having an even higher opinion of itself. It prefers to use underhanded tactics in battle, but its haughty personality causes it to underestimate opponents.

Its appearance is arguably more similar to {{wp|Siamese (cat)|Siamese cats}} than {{wp|Persian (cat)|Persian cats}}, and its species in Japanese is シャムネコ or "shamuneko" meaning "Siamese Cat". It is also similar to large wild cats such as {{wp|Puma (genus)|Puma}}s. The gem on its head makes it resemble a {{wp|Carbuncle (mythology)|Carbuncle}}, a Latin-American mythological beast which had a jewel on its forehead.
Persian appears to be more based on large cats such as {{wp|leopard}}s and {{wp|cougar}}s than {{wp|Persian cat}}s. It also appears similar to {{wp|Siamese cat}}s and its species in Japanese is シャムネコ or "shamuneko" meaning "Siamese Cat". The gem on its head makes it resemble a {{wp|Carbuncle (mythology)|Carbuncle}}, a Latin American mythological beast that had a jewel on its forehead.


Unlike the normal Persian, Alolan Persian appears to be based more on domestic cats that underwent selective breeding, specifically those owned by royalty. In particular, its appearance greatly resembles a {{wp|British Shorthair}}, an imported breed known well for its large and rounded head, which developed as a consequence of inbreeding due to isolation from other cats. Its jewel color may be a visual pun on the "British Blue" variant. Due to its large head and mannerisms, it may also be visual pun on the term of being "big headed".
Unlike the normal Persian, Alolan Persian appears to be based more on domestic cats that underwent selective breeding, specifically those owned by royalty. In particular, its appearance greatly resembles a {{wp|British Shorthair}}, an imported breed known well for its large and rounded head and pronounced 'smile', which the breed developed through artificial selection as part of the process of developing its pedigree. Its blue jewel and gray fur may be a visual pun on the "British Blue" color variant. Due to its large head and mannerisms, it may also be a visual pun on the term of being "big-headed".
