Togepi: the epitome of a ‘baby Pokemon’; it’s so much of a baby Pokemon that it hasn’t even managed to come out of its egg completely! Eggs-traordinarily adorable!
Togepi was first introduced in Generation 2 of the games, and was back then, a Normal-type Pokemon. Generation 3 gave the adorable little hatchling an evolution called Togetic, which made it a Normal / Flying type. In Generation 4, it finally got its 3rd-stage evolution, Togekiss.
It wasn’t until when Fairy types were introduced in Generation 6 that the entire Togepi line got a major overhaul, with its primary Normal typing being changed into Fairy, now making it into a Fairy / Flying type Pokemon.
This changed the Togepi line from being mediocre to outstanding, due to it receiving new and favorable defensive capabilities in the form of resistances and immunities, and formidable offensive presence with STAB (Same Type Attack Bonus) Fairy attacks.
