Blitzle is a speedy electrical zebra Pokémon that was introduced in the fifth generation games. Its evolved form is Zebstrika.

Information

Blitzle are said to appear when there are thunderclouds in the sky. This is likely because they can catch lightning with their manes and store the electricity there. A Blitzle's mane shines when it discharges electricity. Blitzle have been known to use these flashing manes as a means of communicating with each other.

Blitzle evolves into Zebstrika at Level 27.

Appearances

Trivia

• Blitzle's name is a play on "blitz" (which is German for "lightning"), possibly combined with "little".
