Trivia

  • Despite being like a mongoose, it is known as the Cat Ferret Pokémon.
  • Despite having sharp claws, it is unable to learn Cut.
  • Although Zangoose and Seviper are enemies, they can breed due to being in the same egg group.
  • Before Generation IV, Zangoose was the only Pokémon to learn Crush Claw via level up.
  • Seviper is mentioned in every one of Zangooses Pokédex entries.
  • Considering the rivalry between Zangoose and Seviper, Zangoose's Ability, Immunity, could be a defense against Seviper's Poisonous attacks.
  • In horde battles in X and Y if there is a Seviper in a group of Zangoose, they attack it first and not your Pokémon until it faints.
