Pokémon Cry Quiz, name the sound
Every Pokémon has a unique cry. This audio quiz plays that cry and asks you to identify the Pokémon. Headphones are recommended to tell the sounds apart.
The cry, each Pokémon sound signature
Since Pokémon Red and Blue on the Game Boy, every species has had a unique cry, originally short sounds generated by the console 8-bit audio chip. These cries have been remastered across the generations and grown richer, yet many stay instantly recognizable to long-time players.
A few Pokémon are exceptions, starting with Pikachu, whose cartoon voice replaced the classic cry in several games. Most creatures, however, keep their original sound signature, which is exactly what makes this audio quiz fun.
Recognizing a Pokémon by ear
Focus on the pitch and rhythm of the sound: a low, slow cry often suggests a large Pokémon, a high, fast cry a small creature. You can replay the cry as many times as you need, and headphones help you catch the details that make the difference.
