 ==Trivia==
-* Alakazam weighs less than its pre-evolution, {{p|Kadabra}}. Its Pokédex entries offer a possible explanation as to why this is: Alakazam's brain increases in size upon evolution so that it has to move its body using psychic energy, which would cause its muscles to weaken and atrophy because it never uses them. This could also be due to {{p|Kadabra}} having a large tail and Alakazam not.
-* Although it doesn't have a tail, Alakazam is able to learn the move {{m|Iron Tail}}, possibly due to its pre-evolutions having tails.
 * Alakazam could be seen as a counterpart to {{p|Machamp}}. They are both the last stage of a three-part evolutionary family, they reach their final stage by [[trading]], and they both have a 75% male gender ratio. Also, Alakazam excels at the {{Stat|Special Attack}} stat, while Machamp excels at {{stat|Attack}}. They are both in all regional Pokédexes (excluding the [[List of Pokémon by Unova Pokédex number|Unova dex]]). Their evolutionary families are also next to each other in the National Pokédex. Moreover, a girl in [[Oreburgh City]] will trade her Abra for a Machop.
-* Despite being said to have weak muscles (as well as a low {{stat|Attack|Attack stat}}), Alakazam has been seen using physical attacks, such as {{m|Focus Punch|punching}}, many times in the anime, [[Anime physics|usually to great effect]].
 * Alakazam has the lowest average [[Performance]] of any fully-evolved Pokémon, and third lowest overall, only beaten by {{p|Gulpin}} (second) and {{p|Feebas}} (first).
 * In {{2v|Red|Blue}}, an Alakazam sent out by an opponent while the player's Pokémon has low health will have the cry of a {{p|Gastly}}.
