About this sound

The Ekans cry from Pokemon, the hissing snake Pokemon's anime voice call. Used for Pokemon edits, battles and creature sound reactions online.

This is the distinct cry of Ekans, the snake Pokemon known for its long purple body and rattling hiss. The four second clip captures its sharp, slithering voice as heard in the Pokemon anime, with a quick hiss that slides into a drawn out call of its own name. It feels sneaky and slightly menacing without being truly scary, making the moment instantly recognisable to fans. The sound works as a creature reveal, a sly entrance, or a playful warning that something is about to strike from the grass.

Pro tip

Place the Ekans cry right as a character peeks from tall grass or a shadow slides into frame, then cut on the hiss tail. Pair it with a low rumble underneath and avoid looping it, since the name call loses impact when repeated.

How people use it

Drop it when Ekans appears in a Pokemon edit.
Use it for sneaky snake reveals in gameplay videos.
Add it to battles for a wild Pokemon encounter.
Play it as a hiss reaction to shady plans.

More information

Ekans debuted in Pokemon Red and Green in 1996 as a Generation I Poison type, later appearing in Pokemon Red and Blue worldwide. Its name is simply snake spelled backwards, matching its coiled purple design and rattlesnake inspired hiss. In the anime, like many early Pokemon, Ekans speaks by repeating its own name, which turned its cry into a clear character signature. Fans still clip that call for edits and soundboards because it is short, distinctive, and instantly signals a sneaky snake Pokemon without needing any visual cue on screen.
