Popplio is a Water type Pokémon introduced in Generation 7. Popplio is one of the First Partner Pokémon available in Pokémon Sun & Moon along with Rowlet and Litten. It evolves into Brionne. Popplio can create balloons made of water from its nose and utilize them to create a variety of different strategies and attacks in battle.
