Simipour in Pokémon Black and White: locations, stats and moves
Find Simipour’s original Black and White encounter records, Generation V Water typing, base stats, abilities, evolution family and level-up moves.
Original Black and White; their sequels have different routes and encounter availability.
Generation V identity and base stats
Simipour is Unova #022 and National #516. Its original Black and White typing is Water. These figures describe the standard form in the original Nintendo DS games.
The illustration uses a standard Generation V sprite; colour, gender or seasonal forms can differ in the cartridge.

| Stat | Base value |
|---|---|
| HP | 75 |
| Attack | 98 |
| Defense | 63 |
| Sp. Atk | 98 |
| Sp. Def | 63 |
| Speed | 101 |
| Total | 498 |
Where to obtain it in Black and White
Check the version and method columns before travelling. An encounter listed as a gift or stationary interaction does not mean Simipour appears in ordinary grass. Level ranges combine matching slots within the same recorded condition.
The encounter dataset has no direct original Black/White location for this species. Check the evolution family and the linked collection guide rather than assuming it cannot be obtained.
Encounter methods · Legendary and event requirements · Gifts, fossils and trades
Evolution family and original requirements
| From | Into | Original method |
|---|---|---|
| Panpour | Simipour | Use Water Stone |
Friendship evolution uses the original Generation V threshold. Trades require a compatible second game and system; trading an Everstone holder prevents the evolution.
Abilities and breeding reference
| Ability | Slot / availability |
|---|---|
| Gluttony | Regular ability |
| Torrent | Hidden slot; historical availability must be checked |
A Hidden Ability in the data is not proof of an obtainable original-game specimen. Some Hidden Abilities were never released in Generation V; the starter Contrary/Reckless/Shell Armor slots and Litwick-line Shadow Tag cannot be treated as ordinary Black/White catches.
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Gender ratio | 12.5% female / 87.5% male |
| Egg group(s) | Field |
| Base hatch cycles | 20 |
| Experience growth | Medium Fast |
| Base capture rate | 75 / 255 (not a percentage chance) |
| EV yield when defeated | Speed +2 |
The No Eggs / Undiscovered group cannot produce Eggs. An Egg move must be inherited through an eligible parent in these original games; it is not automatically learned by every caught specimen.
Original Black and White level-up moves
| Level | Move |
|---|---|
| 1 / starting move | Fury Swipes |
| 1 / starting move | Leer |
| 1 / starting move | Lick |
| 1 / starting move | Scald |
Level 1 entries are starting or reminder moves, not a guarantee that a later caught specimen already knows all of them. Evolution timing can change which moves are learned before the evolved form takes over. The Move Reminder charges a Heart Scale.

Egg moves and related species
No original Black/White Egg moves are recorded for this standard species.
Use the exact Black or White method and condition before hunting Simipour. Event prerequisites and evolution-only species need a different collection plan from ordinary wild encounters.
