It has yellow hexagon markings that run from its head to its tail, small yellow bumps where it touches the ground, and various purple scar-like marks. It has elongated red fangs that protrude from its upper jaw and fierce red eyes. Its tail is partially red and has a blade-like shape. Seviper sharpens its tail on rocks, and can use it for its former signature move, Template:M.

Major appearances[]
Jessie's Seviper[]
Seviper debuted in A Tail with a Twist. Jessie was so impressed by how it beat up Ash's Treecko, that she had to capture it. After it bit off a chunk of her hair accidentally, she beat it up with her own two hands. After James and Template:MTR calmed her back down, she captured it in a Poké Ball. Seviper became Jessie's main battling partner replacing her Template:TP. Jessie was made to leave Seviper at Team Rocket Headquarters when she headed to the Unova region so they wouldn't attract attention by using Pokémon not from Unova.

In the Pokémon Adventures manga[]
- Main article: Lucy's Seviper
In Trying to Trounce Torchic, a Template:Pkmn2 Seviper attacked Template:Adv and Template:Adv after the latter took him to her Secret Base. Her Torchic was able to put it down for the time being with its Template:M barrage, but it rose back up after Sapphire fainted from an earlier wound. Ruby, seeing that there was no one around to see him fight, knocked it out cold before leaving Sapphire a letter and a change of clothes.
A Seviper appeared in the wild in On the Loose and Hyper with Zangoose and Seviper I and On the Loose and Hyper with Zangoose and Seviper II where it broke Ruby's Poké Balls in unison with a wild Template:P. The then-uncaptured Feefee was able to take them both out, resulting in it being forced into his team (which provided a sharp contrast between the well-groomed Nana and Kiki, and Mumu and itself).
As in the Template:Pkmn, Pike Queen Lucy uses a Seviper as her main Pokémon, which was able to defeat two rental Pokémon in an exhibition match, and later fought Template:Adv before losing. She first appeared in Swanky Showdown with Swalot.
A Seviper Template:Pkmn2 by Template:Adv and lent to Template:Adv for his Template:DL challenge appeared in a fantasy in Moving Past Milotic.

Trivia[]
- In an infamous Pokémon Trainer's Choice, Seviper was incorrectly claimed to be an evolution of Template:P.
- Seviper and its rival Template:P share several characteristics, such as being in the Field Egg Group, residing in the same Friend Area, and being the only two Pokémon with a base stat total of 458.
- Seviper and Zangoose also have the exact opposite Experience group, with Seviper being in the Fluctuating group and Zangoose being in the Erratic group.
- Seviper is the only pure {{Poison}} type to not have an evolutionary relative.
- His appearances in The Stephen Squirrelsky and Friends' Movie Spoof Travels are Kermiladdin 2: The Return of McLeach where he, Manfred, Seviper, Springbaky, Zangoose, and Chimpy attempt to catch Stephen and his friends, but miss, then in Here Comes Winnie the Pooh where he, Lionel, You-Reek Skunk, Teresa, Trevor Sr, Trevor Jr, Slade Spider, Jackal O'Tucksy, Poisonous Snake, Cruella, Jasper, Horace, The Greaser Dogs, The Greasers, The Rowdyruff Boys, Poodles Galore, Mandark, Manfred, Beedrill, Springbaky, Red Guy, Chimpy, Zangoose, Feisty Badger, Red Deer, Dicki Yak, and The Cyberchase Villains work for Ratigan, Fidget, and other baddies to stop Stephen and his friends from delivering the Easter eggs, just to fail again, and will hopefully be in more.
Origin[]
Seviper is based on a viper; specifically, the Template:Wp, a type of venomous Template:Wp that was often pitted against Template:Wps in roadside shows. This practice is now considered inhumane and is rarely seen today. Aside from its scars, the shape of its color pattern resembles that of the Template:Wp. The rivalry it shares with Zangoose is based on the relationship between mongooses and snakes.
Name origin[]
Seviper is a combination of sever (to cut and detach) or severe (intense) and Template:Wp.
Habunake is a combination of 波布 Template:Wp and snake.
