wobbuffet

Pokémon #202 in the National PokéDex, a Psychic type Pokémon

A blue Pokémon, also known as Sonans in the Japanese version. Wobbuffet's Japanese name is derived from "Sounansu, okusan!" (Yes, it is, madam!), a favorite line of comedian Hayashiya Sanpei (林家三平, 1925-1980). Wobbuffet's gesture of putting one of its arms over its head was also Hayashiya's signature routine.

It is one of the two recurring Pokémon used by the Team Rocket duo Jessie and James alongside Meowth.

The first non-legendary Pokémon to be unofficially banned from standard play. The second being Garchomp.
