Summary
Zorua is a Dark-type Pokémon first introduced in Generation V. Renowned for its unique Illusion ability, Zorua excels at confounding and misleading its opponents.
Type: Dark
Abilities:
- Illusion: This unique ability enables Zorua to adopt the appearance of the last Pokémon in the player's party until it sustains damage. Strategically used, this can deceive opponents about Zorua's identity, as well as its potential moves and vulnerabilities.
Interesting Facts:

- Appearance: Zorua exhibits a fox-like appearance with dark grey fur, red accents on its paws and the tips of its ears, and a notable tuft of fur, likewise highlighted with red at the ends, protruding from its head.
- Origins and Inspiration: Zorua's design and abilities draw their primary inspiration from the kitsune, a mythological creature from Japanese folklore renowned for its mischievous nature and shape-shifting abilities.
