From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.

Pawmo (Japanese: パモット Pamot) is a dual-type Electric/Fighting Pokémon introduced in Generation IX.

It evolves from Pawmi starting at level 18, and evolves into Pawmot when leveled up while outside of its Poké Ball after the player walks 1000 steps using the Let's Go! feature.[1][2]

Biology

Pawmo is a stout, bipedal, rodent-like Pokémon. Compared to Pawmi and Pawmot, its fur is almost entirely light orange, with tan colorations on its forepaws, snout, and long, fluffy tail, and green on the insides of its ears. Its face has beady brown eyes, a tiny nose, and yellow electric sacs on its cheeks. It has tufts of fur on its forehead and near its ears. Pawmo has five fingers on its forelimbs which are considerably large, and stretches down to its tiny feet. Pawmo's forepaws contain yellow pads that turn teal-blue when releasing electricity. It uses these paw pads for its signature fighting technique, where it simultaneously strikes and zaps foes with its forepaws. Pawmo are known to travel in groups. When attacked, Pawmo will be the first to fight back, defeating foes with its electricity.

Trivia

Origin

Pawmo seems to be based on a marmot, such as the alpine marmot which can be found in the Pyrenees mountain range of Iberia. Pawmo's ability of discharging electricity from its paws may be inspired by defibrillators, while its Fighting type and its ability to learn Arm Thrust could be a grim reference to the potential injuries that result from CPR.

Name origin

Pawmo may be a combination of Pawmi, marmot, and dynamo.

Pamot may be a combination of パモ Pamo (Pawmi) and marmot.
