'''Sceptile''' (ジュカイン ''Jukain'') is the {{type|Grass}}-[[Types|type]] [[Starter Pokémon]] of the [[Hoenn]] region, introduced in [[Generation III]]. It resembles a cross between a tree gecko and a ''Dilophosaurus'', with bladed leaves near its wrist and a cluster of seeds growing on its back. Its name is derived from "scepter", the staff of a king, and "reptile"; hence, it is known as the "King of the Jungle". Many trainers prefer this speedy lizard because of its decent amount of health and its high [[speed]] stat; it has an advantage in forests, jungles and other grassy areas, where it leaps among the trees with great [[agility]] and ambushes its opponents from above. It carefully tends its seeds, whose nutrients revitalize the trees around them. It has the [[Overgrow]] ability.
