Audino (Pokmon) - Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokmon encyclopedia
Publish date: 2024-06-14
Audino (Japanese: タブンネ Tabunne) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V.
While it is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon, Audino can Mega Evolve into Mega Audino using the Audinite.
Biology
Audino is a bipedal, pink-and-cream Pokémon with oval, blue eyes. The top of its head, its back, and arms are pink, while the lower half of its face, body, ears are cream-colored, as well as its front and fingers. The patterning of pink and cream on its chest resembles a jacket. There are three digits on its hands and two on its feet. It has a puffy, white tuft for a tail. Audino has floppy ears with thin, curled extensions on the underside. It can use these ears as radars, and it has an incredible hearing ability.
The feelers on its ears act like stethoscopes in that it can feel the beat of another Pokémon's heart, in order to assess the Pokémon's feelings and overall physical condition. The feelers are also able to determine when an Egg is close to hatching. It has an incredible sense of hearing, where it can even hear a rolling pebble from a mile away. Audino is said to have a kind heart.
Audino is the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Secret Power by leveling up.
Forms
Audino can Mega Evolve into Mega Audino.
When Audino Mega Evolves into Mega Audino, it becomes both heavier and taller. The patterning on its stomach, now completely cream, is covered by what resembles a flared lab coat. Most of its body becomes white with pink tips in four places, one on each ear and near the edges of its "coat". Its eyes turn pink and its ears stand upright with longer, curlier feelers. Its tail becomes larger and a smaller tuft of fur is centered on its chest. Two additional, curled feelers extend from under this extra tuft of fur. White fur covers its feet with two small tufts on the heels. Mega Audino can release pulses that reduce hostility, and the secondary feelers can put those who come in contact with them into a deep sleep.[1]

Trivia
Bulbanews has an article related to this subject:- Mega Audino was first accidentally revealed on the official Korean Pokémon website on August 12, 2014, two days prior to its official release by Junichi Masuda.
- Audino is the only Pokémon introduced in Generation V that is capable of Mega Evolution.
- Audino is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 445.
- Audino is also the only Pokémon to lose this distinction upon Mega Evolution.
- Mega Audino has the highest base Defense stat of all Normal-type Pokémon.
- Audino is the only Pokémon with two unique base experience yields.
- Audino was designed by Saya Tsuruta.[2]
- In Pokémon GO, Audino rewards 2,100 Stardust when caught under normal conditions. This is higher than any other Pokémon will give.
Origin
According to Ken Sugimori, Audino was designed with the anime in mind, to replace Nurse Joy's Chansey in the Unova region.[3]
Audino seems to be partially based on rabbits, with features similar to that of a physician or nurse. The stethoscope-like feelers on its ears also bring to mind a cochlea, a part of the inner ear involved in hearing, or a butterfly's antennae, or proboscis. The ears themselves resemble wings, which may reference the caduceus as a symbol of medicine in the United States. The ears also resemble butterfly wings, especially in its Mega Evolved form, which may mean it was based on some depictions of a fairy. Mega Audino could take some influence from angels, as well as doctors. Mega Audino may also have a resemblance to the Sweet Lolita fashion style, having a flowing, white-and-pink "coat", "boots", and ears, or perhaps even the Magical Girl subgenre seen in Japanese pop culture.
Name origin
Audino may be derived from audio and a pun on the phrase "I dunno."
Tabunne may be derived from a pun of 多分ね tabun ne (maybe) or 多聞 tabun (hearing many things). It may also involve 耳朶 mimitabu (earlobe).
