Ducklett (Japanese : コアルヒー Koaruhie ) is a dual-type Water /Flying Pokémon introduced in Generation V .
It evolves into Swanna starting at level 35.
Biology
Ducklett is a light-blue, duckling-like Pokémon . It has two feathery tufts on its head that connect at the bottom, forming a V-shape. It has a darker blue, feathery underside which makes it appear as if it were in mid-moult . It has yellow, webbed feet and a small tail.
Ducklett lives around ponds and rivers. Ducklett is not very good at flying yet, so it tends to watch its Swanna parents' movements in an effort to learn. It is better at swimming than flying. It is a talented diver and can spray water from its feathers for self-defense. The foe is distracted by the spray, allowing Ducklett to escape. Ducklett can train its body by diving into the depths of ponds. This increases its strength to help it search for its favorite food. Ducklett's diet consists of both peat and bog moss.

Koaruhie may be a combination of 子 ko (child) or 小 ko (small) and a corruption of 家鴨 ahiru (duck).
