Frogadier is a nimble and swift Pokémon; it can scale a tower exceeding 2,000 feet (600 meters) in one minute. It can also throw bubble-coated pebbles at targets up to 100 feet (30 meters) away. It can confound opponents by leaping about ceilings or into trees.<ref> [https://web.archive.org/web/20160224014849/http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/starters/ Pokémon X and Y site | Starters (Archived)]</ref>
Frogadier is a nimble and swift Pokémon; it can scale a tower exceeding 2,000 feet (600 meters) in one minute. It can also throw bubble-coated pebbles at targets up to 100 feet (30 meters) away. The reason for this is due to the tips of its fingers and toes allowing it to stick firmly onto vertical surfaces. It can confound opponents by leaping about ceilings or into trees.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20160224014849/http://www.pokemonxy.com/en-us/pokemon/starters/ Pokémon X and Y site | Starters (Archived)]</ref> Frogadier is an expert on creating battle strategies that make use of the terrain. Due to this, it will never miss its mark when throwing bubble-covered pebbles.

===Origin===
===Origin===
Frogadier is based on a {{wp|frog}}.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20141007232727/http://www.officialnintendomagazine.co.uk/55933/features/interview-game-freak-on-the-origins-of-pokmon-x-y/ Official Nintendo Magazine - Interview: Game Freak on the origins of Pokémon X & Y (Archived)]</ref> Considering its crouched pose, dark blue "hooded" face and upper body, as well as its scarf-like foam, Frogadier is more than likely based on a {{wp|ninja}} as well. The spiked protrusions above its eyes may have been inspired by horned frogs from the {{wp|Genus|genera}} ''{{wp|Megophrys}}'' and ''{{wp|Ceratophrys}}''. Its bubbling white foam is a reference to frog foam nests, created by some species such as the {{wp|Tungara frog|túngara frog}} and {{wp|grey foam-nest tree frog}} to protect eggs.
