Yanma

Yanma is a dual-type Bug/Flying Pokémon introduced in Generation II. It is Pokédex number 193 and resembles a dragonfly, with a yellow body, four large translucent wings, and red eyes. Its wings beat at high speed, giving it exceptional agility in flight.

In biology and behavior, Yanma relies on its Compound Eyes to track prey with high precision while flying through forests and open areas. Its rapid wingbeats produce a loud, buzzing sound and, in some depictions, a sonic-boom-like effect that can disorient opponents. Yanma is generally portrayed as swift and evasive, using its speed to dodge attacks and strike from the air.

In games, Yanma evolves into Yanmega when traded. Its base stats are typically listed as HP 65, Attack 65, Defense 70, Special Attack 75, Special Defense 75, and Speed 95, for a total of 445. Its standard ability is Compound Eyes, which increases move accuracy; it can have a hidden ability such as Speed Boost in some generations, which raises its Speed each turn. Yanma learns a variety of Bug- and Flying-type moves through leveling and TMs, making it useful for fast-paced, early-to-mid game play.

Habitat and encounters usually place Yanma in forested or grassy areas, where it can take advantage of its speed to patrol treetops and clearings. While not the strongest battler, its combination of high speed and diverse moveset allows it to support teams by controlling tempo and applying pressure with air-based attacks. Yanma remains a notable early-game option for players seeking a fast, bug-type flyer.
