Quagsire is a Water/Ground-type Pokémon species whose juvenile stage is called Wooper.
Biology[]
Members of this species are tailed amphibians and resemble a stout bipedal salamander with light-blue skin, tridactyl limbs, a membranous dorsal fin and a large toothless mouth that's usually smiling; fitting the carefree disposition of this Pokémon. Wild populations are known to exist in the regions of Kanto, Johto, Sinnoh, and Kalos.
Quagsire inhabit clean freshwater lakes and have been described as dim-witted, as they often bump their heads into things such as boulders and boat hulls while swimming and don't seem to mind that at all. Their smooth skin has a slippery and slimy feel to the touch. Their hunting method consists solely of leaving their mouths open and waiting for prey (most likely small fish) to come in. Thanks to their relaxed and lethargic lifestyle, they don't requite much food. Like any Pokémon they will also feed on berries if offered.
Wooper[]
Wooper.
Quagsire's juvenile stage, Wooper, is a relatively small Pokémon, standing about 40 cm tall and weighing 8.5 kg. It's easily identified by its branched gills growing on each side of its head, and by the fact that it doesn't possess arms, and its feet don't seem to have toes.
Wooper live in cold waters and will forage for food on land when the weather gets cold. To do so, they coat themselves in a protective layer of thick slime which is toxic and painful to the touch, thus conferring protection against predators as well as against the dry air. They sleep at the bottom of lakes, half-buried in mud.
