Snivy (ツタージャ) is the first Pokémon in the Unova Pokédex. It is a Grass Type, and it is known as the Grass Snake Pokémon.

Snivy's Ability Overgrow powers up its Grass type moves when its HP is below a third. Snivy that come from the Dream World have access to the Contrary Ability. This Ability affects moves that change this Pokémon's Statistics. If a move was going to decrease its Statistics, such as Screech or Leaf Storm, its Statistics would increase; if a move was going to increase its Statistics, such as Coil, its Statistics would decrease.

Snivy evolves into Servine starting at level 17 and again into Serperior starting at level 36.
