Abra, known as Casey (ケーシィ, Kēshī) in Japan, is a Psychic Pokémon from the Pokémon series of games. It is listed as Pokémon #063 in the Pokédex
Name Origin
Abra's name comes from the well-known term used in magic, "abracadabra." Its Japanese name, Kēshī, is a reference to mentalist and "sleeping prophet" Edgar Cayce. Its name in the beta versions of the games was "Hocus".
Availability
Abra can be caught in the wild in all Pokémon versions - but due to its only attack being Teleport, which ends the battle, it is harder to catch than most other wild pokémon.
Information
Abra likes to sleep for eighteen hours a day - any less, and it will lose its telekinetic ability. Using its psychic powers, it can teleport away from danger - and even conduct a battle - while sleeping. If it teleports randomly over short distances, it can create an illusion that there is more than one of itself. Unlike Magikarp - which is also caught with only inoffensive moves - Abra can learn a variety of techniques from TMs, making it easier to train than first appearance would indicate.
Abra is vaguely cat-like in appearance. It has two legs and two arms, but is always depicted in a sitting position, and sleeping. Its colouration is gold and brown, and it has a long tail.
