Biology
Froakie is a quadruped, frog-like Pokémon. It is covered in pale blue skin with white front paws. There is a single, dark blue stripe going down the center of its head to its nose. Its eyes are large with yellow sclera, black irises, and white pupils. A cape of white bubbles covers its back, and it has two small bubbles on its nose. These bubbles give Froakie added protection from attacks. Its hind feet have two toes, while its forefeet have three. Froakie is both light and strong, making it capable of jumping incredibly high.[1] It keeps a careful eye on its surroundings, despite its carefree attitude.

Trivia
Origin
Froakie is based upon a frog.[2] Its bubbling white foam is a reference to frog foam nests, created by some species of frogs such as the Tungara and Grey foam-nest tree frog, to protect its eggs. Froakie's foam heavily resembles a "backpack" of sorts, and has been shown to also be used in the anime as a makeshift hood, which is more than likely a reference to Dorobō (burglars or thieves) in Japanese folklore and culture; Dorobō use furoshiki cloth bags to not only hold stolen goods but also to mask their identity, referenced in Froakie's usage of its foam. Considering its evolutions, its characteristics, as well as its association with thievery, Froakie may also be based on a ninja.
Name origin
Froakie may be a combination of frog, froth, croak, and rookie.
Keromatsu is a combination ケロケロ kerokero (onomatopoeia for a frog's croaking) and 沫 matsu (bubble or foam) or 飛沫 himatsu (spray or splash).
