Biology

Flaaffy is the evolution of Mareep. It is pink and fluffy, with a blue orb at the end of their tails that they use as a conductor. Due to storing too much electricity, it starts to lose wool and develop patches where wool cannot grow, leaving only wool around its neck and head. Flaaffy evolves into Ampharos.

Design & origin

Flaaffy's English name is a combination of "fluffy" and "baa", the onomatopoeia of the noise sheep make.

  1. It stores electricity in its fluffy fleece. If it stores up too much, it will start to go bald in those patches.

  2. In the places on its body where fleece doesn’t grow, its skin is rubbery and doesn’t conduct electricity. Those spots are safe to touch.

    Ultra Sun
  3. Not even downy wool will grow on its rubbery, nonconductive patches of skin that prevent electrical shock.

  4. If its coat becomes fully charged with electricity, its tail lights up. It fires hair that zaps on impact.

  5. Its fleece quality changes to generate strong static electricity with a small amount of wool. The bare, slick parts of its hide are shielded against electricity.

  6. FLAAFFY’s wool quality changes so that it can generate a high amount of static electricity with a small amount of wool. The bare and slick parts of its hide are shielded against electricity.

  7. Because of its rubbery, electricity-resistant skin, it can store lots of electricity in its fur.

    Crystal
  8. Its fluffy fleece easily stores electricity. Its rubbery hide keeps it from being electrocuted.
