'''Sneasel''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ニューラ''' ''Nyula'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dark|Ice}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].
 
It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Weavile}} when [[level]]ed up while holding a [[Razor Claw]] during the {{DL|Time|Time-based evolutions|night}}.


'''Sneasel''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ニューラ''' ''Nyula'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dark|Ice}} Pokémon.
In [[Hisui]], Sneasel has a dual-type {{2t|Fighting|Poison}} [[regional form]]. It evolves into {{p|Sneasler}} when [[level]]ed up while holding a Razor Claw during the day.


It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Weavile}} via [[level]]-up, at [[Time|night]], holding a [[Evolution-inducing held item#Razor Claw|Razor Claw]].
(Specifics may differ in past games. Refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data&rarr;Evolution data]] for more details.)


==Biology==
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Sneasel is a bipedal {{wp|mustelid}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that resembles both a cat and a weasel. It is primarily bluish-black with three bright red feathers for its tail and a single one on its left ear. The ear feather is shorter on the female than on the male. The other ear is short and pointed, and it has narrow red eyes. On its forehead and chest are oval, yellow gem-like protrusions. It has red eyes with black eyelash-like markings on the edges. It has long limbs with two large, white retractable claws on its hands and feet. It is perfectly capable of using its claws to do substantial damage. Its claws are also used for climbing trees in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|boreal or sub-alpine forests}} where it lives. It can also bring out its claws to startle foes that attacked it.
Sneasel is a bipedal Pokémon which vaguely resembles a weasel. Its body is predominantly black, but it possesses bright red feather-like growths on its left ear and lower back. Its most striking features are the two retractable claws on its front and back paws. It also has distinctive yellow markings on its face and chest. Its unusual facial markings, which resemble eyelashes, are found on both males and females; these markings strongly resemble the makeup worn by the primary character in [[wp:A Clockwork Orange (film)|Stanley Kubrick's ''A Clockwork Orange'']].  
====Gender differences====
A female has a shorter red feather on its head than a male.


===Special abilities===
Sneasel is a smart, sneaky, and notoriously vicious Pokémon, and blends well into the night in order to ambush their prey. Sneasel feeds on {{pkmn|Eggs}}, such as those of {{p|Pidgey}}, that it steals from unattended nests. It uses its claws to poke a hole in the Egg before slurping the contents out. It has been known to form pairs to hunt: one Sneasel will lure the parents away from their nest, while the other steals their Eggs. Although the Sneasel pair works together, they will also fight over their hunt among themselves. As a result of its Egg-based diet, Sneasel are despised by [[Pokémon Breeder (Trainer class)|Breeders]] to the point where they try to drive away or eradicate the former. Sneasel also preys on {{rf|Alolan}} {{p|Sandshrew}}, but the Sandshrew's skin is so hard that it can cause Sneasel's claws to snap off.
Sneasel normally attack by using claw-based moves, such as {{m|Slash}} or {{m|Metal Claw}}. Sneasel are also capable of learning punching moves like {{m|Ice Punch}} or {{m|Focus Punch}}. Since Sneasel is a {{t|Dark}}-type Pokémon, it can learn certain attacks that come with very disruptive effects: stealing an opponent's hold item ({{m|Thief}}), or preventing foes from using the same attack twice in a row ({{m|Torment}}). Sneasel is a very agile Pokémon, making it a tough target to hit.


Sneasel's [[signature move]] is {{m|Beat Up}}, an attack that summons its teammates to pummel a foe.
Prior to [[Generation IV]], {{m|Beat Up}} was its [[signature move]], but other Pokémon could still inherit it via {{pkmn|breeding}}.


===Behavior===
===Forms===
Sneasel are notoriously vicious Pokémon, which are perfectly capable of using their impressive claws to do substantial amounts of damage. Sneasel enjoy attacking and injuring the weak; their nasty temperament can be seen in ''[[AG141|Hail to the Chef]]'' when one sabotaged Meowth's food, nearly leading to a clash of claws. Sneasel are surely agile and will move with ninja-like movements in battle, as they are are cunning, and have developed many strategies to capture their prey. In addition to being formidable weapons, their claws are also useful tools and enable them to climb trees.
Sneasel has a [[regional form]]: {{rf|Hisuian}} Sneasel.


===Habitat===
In [[Hisui]], Sneasel has a similar appearance to its Johtonian counterpart. It has a white body with purple colorations on its face, chest, shoulders, and forelimbs. The feathers on its tail and ear are light purple; like Johtonian Sneasel, the ear feather is shorter on the female than on the male. It has rounder eyes than its Johtonian form, although it shares the latter's gem-like protrusions, as well as the large claws on its hands and feet. The claws are tipped with poison, and are purple on its forelimbs and white on its feet.
[[Image:Forest.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Forest Pokémon|Forest Pokémon]]]]
Sneasel generally live in forests, but are also found in caves and mountainous areas.


===Diet===
Hisuian Sneasel's sturdy and curved claws allow it to climb and travel through the walls of precipitous cliffs where it lives. The venom from the tips of its claws is capable of invading the nervous system of any prey it scratches. It has been observed that Hisuian Sneasel lacks the spitefulness of its Johtonian counterpart, and it has been theorized that differences in their environments account for the differing personalities. As a result, Hisuian Sneasel evolves into {{p|Sneasler}} instead of {{p|Weavile}}.
{{main|Pokémon food}}


Sneasel's preferred diet consists of {{p|Pidgey}} eggs, but like most Pokémon, Sneasel sometimes eat [[Berries]].
===Evolution===
 
Sneasel evolves into {{p|Weavile}}.
==In the anime==
[[Image:Harrison's Sneasel.PNG|right|200px|thumb|{{jo|Harrison}}'s Sneasel being {{m2|Bite|bitten}} by [[Ash's Totodile]].]]
Sneasel's first appearance was in ''[[Pokémon 4Ever]]''. [[Vicious]] sent this Pokémon along with {{p|Scizor}} to get {{p|Celebi}}.
 
In ''[[EP265|Pop Goes The Sneasel]]'', This Pokémon was blocking access to the Flame of {{p|Ho-Oh}}. {{jo|Harrison}} captured that Sneasel and later used it in the [[Silver Conference]]. Harrison's Sneasel beat [[Ash's Pikachu]], then lost to [[Ash's Totodile]].


Sneasel also made an appearance in ''[[AG141|Hail to the Chef]]'' under the ownership of [[Rhoda]], a girl that lives outside of [[Saffron City]] who was competing with [[Rhonda (Kanto)|her sister]], who owned a {{p|Mr. Mime}}, for the ownership of her father's restaurant.
{{rf|Hisuian}} Sneasel evolves into {{p|Sneasler}}.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* In Sneasel's {{2v2|Gold|Silver}} sprite artwork, its fur is brown and its "feathers" are colored blue instead of pink. This mistake was corrected in {{v2|Crystal}}'s sprite. The shiny sprites, however, are properly colored.
[[File:Cats by Kino Takahashi.png|right|thumb|Sneasel in Galarian Meowth merchandise by [[Kino Takahashi]].]]
*Sneasel is one of fourteen Pokémon that one could collect [[Meister|foreign Pokédex entries]] for in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.
* Sneasel is one of fourteen {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that one could collect [[foreign Pokédex entries]] for in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.
*In {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}, Sneasel's front sprites are the same in both versions. There are very few other Pokémon like this, with some including {{p|Spinarak}} and {{p|Ariados}}. Strangely, these Pokémon all have a relation to the fact that they can only be found in the wild at night.
* Sneasel can be seen as a counterpart to {{p|Gligar}}. Both of them have two [[type]]s which cause them to have a 4× [[Type#Type effectiveness|weakness]] to another type, have the same [[base stat]] total, evolve into Pokémon that were introduced in [[Generation IV]] ({{p|Weavile}} and {{p|Gliscor}}), and do so by leveling up at night while holding an [[Evolution item]] whose name includes the word ''razor'' ([[Razor Claw]] and [[Razor Fang]]).
*Although Sneasel and {{p|Weavile}} are {{stat|Speed|fast}} {{type2|Dark}} Pokémon, they cannot learn {{m|Sucker Punch}}.
* Sneasel has the highest base {{stat|Speed}} stat of all Pokémon that are capable of evolving.
*Sneasel was known in Generations II and III for having no useful STAB move, as both {{t|Dark}} and {{t|Ice}} were special-based types at the time, and Sneasel has a very low {{stat|Special Attack}} stat. This problem no longer exists in Generation IV, and as a result Sneasel and {{p|Weavile}} now have useful physical STAB moves such as {{m|Ice Punch}}, {{m|Ice Shard}}, and {{m|Pursuit}}.
* Despite Sneasel being based on the ''kamaitachi'', which has the same Japanese name as {{m|Razor Wind}}, Sneasel cannot learn this move.
*Sneasel, together with its evolution {{p|Weavile}}, are the only Pokémon which are Dark/Ice.
* Sneasel is the only Pokémon to have a [[gender difference]] in both its standard form and [[regional form]].
** Furthermore, Hisuan Sneasel is the only regional form to have gender differences.
* Sneasel is the only dual-type Pokémon to have a dual-type regional form that doesn't share either of its types.
* Sneasel is the only Pokémon with a Hisuian form to have its original form available in any capacity in [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]].
* Hisuian Sneasel and {{p|Sneasler|its evolution}} were designed by [[Hitoshi Ariga]].<ref>[https://twitter.com/ariga_megamix/status/1493600999038021632 Tweet by ありがひとし/ArigaHitoshi (@ariga_megamix).] Posted on February 16, 2022.</ref>
* In [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]]'s internal code, Hisuian Sneasel's Hidden Ability is {{a|Poison Touch}} instead of {{a|Pickpocket}}.
* Sneasel has been depicted with three variants in color. In {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}, Sneasel had a bronze coloration while its tail feathers were a dark cyan; while in [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]], Sneasel had a light purple body. The third color variant is its current bluish black color which has been consistently depicted in the main series games from {{game|Crystal}} onwards.
* Johtonian Sneasel and its evolved form, Weavile, are the only {{DL|List of Pokémon by color|black}} {{type|Ice}} Pokémon.
 
===Origin===
===Origin===
It may be based on {{wp|weasel}}s, but it also seems to draw inspiration from 鎌鼬 ''{{wp|kamaitachi}}'', weasel demons with sickles on their front legs.
Sneasel may be based on the ''{{wp|kamaitachi}}'', a type of ''{{wp|yōkai}}'' often represented as weasel demons with sickles on their front legs and sometimes understood as the cause of mysterious cuts on the skin, especially in cold weather. It also resembles {{wp|black cats}}. It may also draw inspiration from the {{wp|Viverridae|viverrids}}, {{wp|weasel}}-like mammals with half-retractable claws that are sometimes mistaken for cats; its "feathers" perhaps represent the dorsal crest seen on some species. These {{wp|feather}}s could also represent the wind itself, the key element of kamaitachi, as feathers are often associated with the wind, because they allow birds to move in the air and create gusts. Its eye markings are similar to that of ones in Egyptian style, possibly {{wp|Eye of Horus|Horus}}'s.
 
====Name origin====
====Name origin====
Sneasel's name is a combination of ''sneaky'' and ''weasel''. The name is pronounced as "sneezele", which may refer to "sniffle," "the sniffles," "sneeze," or "sneezing" resulting from a bad cold (a possible reference to this Pokémon's Dark/Ice type). Sneasel's Japanese name may come from 潜入 ''sennyū'', sneaking in, and 鼬 ''yū'', an alternate reading of ''itachi'', or weasel.
Sneasel is a combination of ''sneaky'' and ''weasel''. It may also derive from ''sneeze'', an action associated with having a cold or being cold, or ''sneesl'' (Scots for ''to begin to rain or snow'') — both of which refer to its Ice type.
 
Nyula may be a combination of 潜入 ''sennyū'' (sneaking in) and 鼬 ''yū'' (weasel, an alternate reading of ''itachi''). Alternatively, it may be a combination of ''new'', ニャー ''nya'' (the sound a cat makes), and 野良 ''nora'' (stray, as in a stray cat, as strays are usually violent and tricky).
