Kangaskhan (Japanese: ガルーラ Garura) is a Template:Type2 Pokémon.
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.
Biology
Physiology
Kangaskhan is a brown and cream colored kangaroo-like creature with a little purple baby Kangaskhan usually sitting in her pouch.
Gender differences

Trivia
- It should be noted that the Glitch Pokémon 'M evolves into Kangaskhan. This is due to Kangaskhan's position in the game's internal programming, and is also why 'M (among other Glitch Pokémon) can also evolve into Rhydon.
- Kangaskhan is the last non-legendary Pokémon in the Fiore Browser.
- Kangaskhan is the only Pokémon that isn't a Template:Type2 that learns Outrage by level.
- Kangaskhan is one of the few Pokémon to have more than one Pokémon in its sprite. The others include Slowbro, Slowking, and Mantine. Though some may say Kangaskhan does not count since the baby Kangaskhan is not a separate evolutionary stage.
- Despite the Generation III and Generation II sprites showing its baby in its pouch, its backsprite shows it on its shoulder.
- Its Generation IV sprite is the only one where its baby's color doesn't change if it is shiny.
Origin
Kangaskhan is based on a kangaroo.
Name origin
Kangaskhan's name is a combination of kangaroo and Genghis Khan, founder of the Mongol Empire (possibly how its Pokédex data refers to how violently protective it is of its child). Ironically, Genghis Khan was a male, but Kangaskhan is a female-only species. Its Japanese name is derived from English words "kangaroo" (カンガルー kangarū) and "ruler" (ルーラー rūrā).
In other languages
- German: Kangama - Combination of kangaroo and Mama.
- French: Kangourex - From kangourou (kangaroo) and rex (Latin for "king").
- Korean: 캥카 Kaengka
