Ekans is a purple, serpentine Pokémon. Its eyes, underbelly, stripe, and rattle are yellow. Ekans has three pairs of black lines encircling its body, as well as another line that connects each slitted eye and curves toward its nose. Its large mouth has a round, pink tongue and no visible teeth. | Ekans is a purple, serpentine Pokémon. Its eyes, underbelly, the thick stripe around its neck, and rattle are yellow. Ekans has three pairs of black lines encircling its body, as well as another line that connects each slitted eye and curves toward its nose. Its large mouth has a round, pink tongue and no visible teeth. | ||
Ekans moves stealthily through grass and preys on Eggs from {{p|Pidgey}} and {{p|Spearow}} nests, but can strike other prey from behind. It grows longer with age and wraps itself around tree branches at night to rest. If not in a tree, it will coil itself up—a position in which it can defend itself from all directions. Its jaw can detach to swallow large prey, but such a meal can make Ekans too heavy to move. A newborn Ekans's bite is painful, but not venomous. It flicks its tongue out to detect danger and the scent of prey. It was also shown in [[M02|the second movie]] to possess some swimming abilities. Ekans lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grassy savannas and plains}}. | Ekans moves stealthily through grass and preys on Eggs from {{p|Pidgey}} and {{p|Spearow}} nests, but can strike other prey from behind.

[[Jessie]] had an Ekans, which for most of the [[original series]], was her only Pokémon.

====[[Team Meanies]]==== | |||
Ekans was part of Team Meanies in ''[[SS019|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters out of the Gate!]]''. {{p|Gengar}} commanded the Poisonous Snake Pokémon to eat all the Berries Team Go-Getters collected. At one point, Ekans was incorrectly referred to as Arbok by Gengar. While this was an intentional error that Ekans rebuked in the original version (due to the similarities in the Japanese names), this came across as a general mistake in the dub and was corrected in reairings of the episode. | |||

===Origin=== | ===Origin=== | ||
Ekans appears to be based on a boa and {{wp|rattlesnake}}, and its facial markings resemble an {{wp|Indian cobra}}'s hood. However, its lack of teeth, ability to swallow large prey, preying on Pokémon eggs, and reaction to threats are more akin to an {{wp|egg-eating snake}}. The yellow band around its neck may refer to the {{wp|Diadophis punctatus|ring-necked snake}}. Ekans and {{p|Arbok}} may also be inspired by the legendary {{wp|basilisk}} since they were originally the only Pokémon to learn {{m|Glare}}. The basilisk was said to be a poisonous, serpentine dragon that would kill people with its stare, which may explain Ekans's place in the {{egg3|Dragon}}. | |||
