Defense and Sp. Def carry most of Togepi's stat budget. Attack's the obvious dump stat. Common in the wild and yields 1 Sp. Def stat exp. Follows a fast 800K XP curve.
The shell seems to be filled with joy. It is said that it will share good luck when treated kindly.
A proverb claims that happiness will come to anyone who can make a sleeping TOGEPI stand up.

| 0x (Immune) | Ghost |
- Dark and Steel types added — Fairy does not exist yet
