Biology

Pansage, Pansear, and Panpour are a trio of monkey-like Pokémon. Pansage evolves into Simisage.

Design & origin

The three are based on the "Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil" wise monkeys of Japanese folklore. Pansage's name has a root in the word chimpanzee, with the rest derived from the word sage.
