exclamation marks go off in satoshi's mind as he spots the cherinbo. oh these little guys are definitely not native to the region. he doesn't see any others of the kind around, leaving him to wonder how the pokémon managed to get itself lost in melemele's woods — & absolute alarm bells go off as he recalls a very, very important fact about cherinbo, aided by a very, very sleepy bird deciding to wake up.

❛ rowlet, no !! ❜ as he grabs mokuroh to keep it from flying straight for the berry pokémon, he has to whisper - shout as to not spook the cherinbo away ... but the noise is enough to pique the interest of a few pokémon up in the trees. ❛ oh no. ❜

it's a scramble to find an empty pokéball amidst inventory & toss it at the cherinbo as a dozen bird pokémon suddenly catch wind of the cherinbo's sweet - smelling nutrient berry & dive in for the nab. to the cherinbo's credit, it dodges & weaves the birds deftly, but it eventually is cornered, & satoshi figures the best trajectory of the ball & —

clink.

rustle, rustle. rustle.

ding !!

phew ...

wait.

❛ ah !! i caught a cherinbo ... !! haha !! ... oh shoot. ❜ & so caught up in the euphoria of a new catch was he that he failed to notice the annoyed tsutsukera & onisuzume staring at him ... until they started chasing him. ❛ pikachu !! elec net !! ❜ worth it !!

Moonvale's Pokemon Commentary: #731 Pikipek

Aww yas.

Just for Looks:

LOOK AT THIS CUTE-ASS BIRD. Look at its woodpeckery-ass face. Look at its Pearl-from-Steven-Universe fancy hair. Look at its lil X feet. I love this bird. It's so cute! I think this is the first regional bird to not be a borbish chubby thing? Not that borbs are bad, just a thing I'm noticing just now.

Its shiny is sadly a bit underwhelming though. The red on its head is just a different shade of red. It's like got a florescent pinkishness to it and I don't like it on a subliminal level or something. The shade of red on the regular Pikipek is a lot nicer next to the black, grey, and whites of its body to me.

What's in the Name:

Obviously, peck is part of the name origin, but apparently the first part of its name could be from the Latin for woodpeckers: picus. Personally I just see pick and peck like sounds a woodpecker makes. That and the lemme smash bird video. This is a nice stick. I like sticks. Peck. Pick.

Its Japanese name on the other hand, Tsutsukera, is likely from the Japanese word for (or maybe the sound for, Bulbapedia's not clear) pecking: Tsutsuki, as well as the word for woodpecker itself, keratsutsuki. This is another pokemon that has a fun sounding name I totally didn't just keep repeating as I was typing. Shut up.

The 'Dex Says:

Pikipek is like a real life woodpecker, it uses its beak to drill into trees to store food. It has a strong neck and can peck 16 times per second and apparently the rhythm of its pecking changes with its mood. It'd imagine trainers are taught what annoyed or territorial pikipek pecking sounds like so they can avoid angering them further and getting fruit seeds spat at them like ammunition from those beaks. And yet, it only learns bulletseed well after it would have been fully evolved naturally. Hold on, Pikipek. I gotta keep you from reaching your final form so you will be able to learn the move hinted at in one of your dex entries.

It's Rating Time!

Pikipek gets a 4/5 for me. Its super cute and super amazing and adorable and I love the little thing to pieces. Though I love all regional birds.
