Drifloon (フワンテ, Fuwante, Fuwante in Japanese language trademarks) is a fictional creature in the Pokémon media franchise.
Creature description
Drifloon is an odd little Pokémon resembling a balloon with a cloudy "hat", a yellow "X" on its face, and a pair of needle-thin legs. It can inflate its "head" like Jigglypuff. In the RPGs Pokémon Diamond & Pearl, Drifloon is a rare Pokémon, and only one individual a week appears in front of a building complex called Valley Windworks every Friday. You must be playing on a Friday and go to Valley Windworks to get the opportunity to catch it. Drifloon evolves into Drifblim, a larger, corporeal ghostly balloon with some of the physical characteristics of a dirigible.
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl
As a stage element
Drifloon is the balloon Pokémon that appears in Super Smash Bros. Brawl's Pokémon Stadium 2 on the Flying Type Aspect of the stage. It is not known whether this appearance by Drifloon is merely cosmetic or if it affects gameplay on its own.
