This '''Donphan''' is a {{type|Ground}}-[[Types|type]] [[Pokémon (creature)|Pokémon]] owned by [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]]. It is one of Ash's few Pokémon that hatched from an egg.
   
 
==Biography==
It later hatched into a [[Phanpy]] in "[[Hatching A Plan]]" and was a playful Pokemon yet refused to obey Ash's commands. Unfortunately, things took a turn for the worst when Team Rocket arrived to capture Pikachu. In the process, Phanpy was shocked by Pikachu's Thundershock despite Ground-types being immune to all kinds of Electric attacks. Despite this, its trust for Ash was destroyed and the second it got hit and heartbroken, it ran away, leaving Ash, Brock, Misty and Pikachu searching for it.

Donphan was received as an egg in ''Extreme Pokémon'' after Ash and Bayleef won a race held by an old couple who bred and cared for numerous Pokémon eggs.
   
 
The egg later hatched into Donphan as a [[Phanpy]] in ''[[GS114: Hatching a Plan|Hacthing A Plan]]'' and was a playful Pokémon yet refused to obey Ash's commands. Unfortunately, things took a turn for the worst when Team Rocket arrived to capture Phanpy. In the process, Phanpy was shocked by Pikachu's Thunderbolt attack despite Ground-types being immune to every kind of Electric attack. Despite this, its trust for Ash was destroyed and the second it got hit, it ran away, leaving Ash, Brock, Misty and Pikachu searching for it.
Phanpy fell into Team Rocket's clutches who manipulated the little baby Pokemon into thinking they actually cared for it but once Pikachu had been captured, Team Rocket showed their true colors and dumped Phanpy in the cage with Pikachu.

Luckily, though, Pikachu, having seen through Team Rocket's scheme hatched an escape plan and the two managed to get away although Phanpy was swept away after falling into a river. Ash saved the little Pokemon and regained its trust for him, realizing that he cared more about its well-being than Team Rocket ever would. Phanpy later grew to resent Team Rocket and used Rollout to weaken the enemy's Pokemon before Pikachu used Thunderblock to send the bad guys blasting off again. After that, Phanpy and Ash formed a strong bond that continues to this day.

Biography

As Phanpy

Donphan was received as an egg in Extreme Pokémon after Ash and Bayleef won a race held by an old couple who bred and cared for numerous Pokémon eggs.

The egg later hatched into Donphan as a Phanpy in Hacthing A Plan and was a playful Pokémon yet refused to obey Ash's commands. Unfortunately, things took a turn for the worst when Team Rocket arrived to capture Phanpy. In the process, Phanpy was shocked by Pikachu's Thunderbolt attack despite Ground-types being immune to every kind of Electric attack. Despite this, its trust for Ash was destroyed and the second it got hit, it ran away, leaving Ash, Brock, Misty and Pikachu searching for it.

Phanpy fell into Team Rocket's clutches who manipulated the little baby Pokémon into thinking they actually cared for it but once Pikachu had been captured, Team Rocket showed their true colors and dumped Phanpy in the cage with Pikachu.

Luckily, though, Pikachu, having seen through Team Rocket's scheme comforted Phanpy and hatched an escape plan and the two managed to get away although Phanpy was swept away after falling into a river. Ash saved the little Pokémon and regained its trust for him, realizing that he cared more about its well-being than Team Rocket ever would. Phanpy later grew to resent Team Rocket and used Rollout to weaken the enemy's Pokémon before Pikachu used Thunderbolt to send the bad guys blasting off again. After that, Phanpy and Ash formed a strong bond that continues to this day.

Phanpy was unable to replicate this success in the next episode where Team Rocket used their new Delibird who launched a Blizzard which managed to knock out Phanpy in a single blow due to the fact that Ground-type Pokémon are weak against Ice-type attacks.

In As Cold as Pryce, Ash, arrogantly misjudged the situation and sent Phanpy out to fight Pryce's Dewgong but due to Dewgong holding the type advantage, Phanpy lost and was encased in ice as a result.
