Why does Yourichi never use a Zanpakuto?

She was shown to use her zanpakuto once in a flashback, wasn't she? Her preferred fighting style just seems to center around Hakuda and Shunkō. We really haven't seen Yoruichi fight against someone with a zanpakuto (for an extended period of time). I agree with Avith, Bleach needs more empty handed combat.

Probably because she never needed to. If she ever needed to she'd likely use it. However she's always been on equal footing or better against all her opponents without the need to use it.

hmmmm......i disagree Koby i think shes "lost her sword abilaties" somehow. becuase she never used it against Aizen:baffle: which would have been the perfect time :dhh:

As the leader of the stealth force, she developed the unique capability to transform herself into a cat. She also prefers to run around naked. As a result, she must have chosen to do without a Zampakuto since it would be weird to carry one as a cat and it would be inconvenient to carry one when wearing no clothes.

My theory is that, somehow, her swords shikai and/or bankai grants her the ability to turn into a cat. It wouldn't be impossible, and it would explain where it went whenever was in cat form for a hundred years.

And yes, it was shown in one of Soi Fon's flashbacks in season two. So it is definate that she has one. She just must prefer hand-to-hand.

That's what I think too.
