Abra, Kadabra, and Alakazam, known in Japan as Casey (ケーシィ, Kēshii^?), Yungerer (ユンゲラー, Yungerā^?), and Foodin (フーディン, Fūdin^?), are three Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise that are linked through evolution. Abra evolves into Kadabra after gaining enough experience in battle, and Kadabra evolves into Alakazam after being traded to another trainer. Created by Ken Sugimori, they first appeared in the video games Pokémon Red and Blue and later appear in subsequent sequels. They have appeared in various merchandise, spinoff titles and animated and printed adaptations of the franchise. Known as the Psi Pokémon, using self-hypnosis, Abra spends 18 hours a day sleeping, unable to utilize its abilities unless rested. This behavior ceases once it evolves into Kadabra, a strong psychic that emits alpha waves affected by its current mental state. Able to remember everything, Alakazam's IQ is around 5000 and can outperform a supercomputer. Alakazam is one of the handful of Pokémon to be given a mega-evolution in generation VI, giving it more strength along with a few physical changes such as a large white moustache.
