Sobble, known in Japan as Messon (メッソン), is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise. It was first introduced in Pokémon Sword and Shield and was one of three Pokémon available to the player at the beginning of the game, along with Grookey and Scorbunny. It is a Water-type Pokémon and evolves into Drizzile, then Inteleon, both of which are also Water-type. Critical response was mixed. While some reviewers praised Sobble's design and personality, some were confused as to why Sobble cried, calling it "annoying".
