Togepi (トゲピー, Togepī, Togepy) is a fictional creature in the Pokémon media franchise. Togepi is a tiny egg-shaped creature covered in a half-hatched egg shell with red and blue patterns on it.

It uses Metronome as its attack. While Clefairy's Metronome attack deals out various damaging attacks, Togepi's Metronome deals out status effects to all characters within a certain radius. The summoner is not harmed by any of Togepi's Metronome attacks.

Togepi's Metronome is made up of five attacks that are chosen randomly. The attacks are:

• Leech Seed: This attack has the same affect as Lip's Stick. A flower is planted on the head of any players who are in Togepi's glowing attack radius.
• Powder Snow: A blast of ice is shot out. Any character stuck in the blast radius will be frozen for a couple of seconds and take damage. Unlike other freezing attacks, Powder Snow is a meteor smash, and as a result has no noticable knockback on grounded characters.
• Sleep Powder: Togepi releases some Sleep Powder, similar to Bellossom's attack. A character will fall asleep momentarily if he/she is in the attack's radius.
• Earthquake: Togepi starts shaking the ground. Anyone near Togepi will become imbedded into the ground for a couple of seconds, like the effect from Donkey Kong's Headbutt attack. This attack looks similar to Venusaur's attack.
• Night Shade: Togepi releases a black magic aura, which completely blackens the screen for several full seconds, disorienting players, though computer-controlled characters are unaffected. Due to its undesirable nature, this attack is noticeably rarer than the other four.

As a trophy

Togepi features as a collectible trophy, unlocked as one of the 100+ trophies that can be collected randomly during normal play, such as in the Trophy Lottery and throughout the various single-player regular matches. It reads as follows:

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Togepi returns to the series using the random effects it used in Melee. However, it no longer uses Night Shade, but SmokeScreen, which as the same effect of blackening the screen. This is a more accurate reflection of the Pokémon Universe as Night Shade was a damaging attack — Smokescreen is not. Moreover, SmokeScreen lowers accuracy, and as players (CPU's are unaffected) lose track of their characters in the darkness, it is a better choice.
