#741 Oricorio Pom-Pom Style

“Oricorio (Japanese: オドリドリ Odoridori) is a Flying-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VII.
While it is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon, Oricorio can change forms by sipping the Nectar of certain flowers.
- If Red Nectar is used on Oricorio, it will change into Baile Style, where it becomes Fire/Flying-type.
- If Yellow Nectar is used on Oricorio, it will change into Pom-Pom Style, where it becomes Electric/Flying-type.
- If Pink Nectar is used on Oricorio, it will change into Pa’u Style, where it becomes Psychic/Flying-type.
- If Purple Nectar is used on Oricorio, it will change into Sensu Style, where it becomes Ghost/Flying-type.
Oricorio is an avian Pokémon that can change between four markedly different forms. The form it takes depends on the kind of nectar it consumes. All forms have a light pink beak, thin legs, and dark eyes with white pupils. The feet have three toes in front and one in back, and the beak curves downward.
Oricorio is the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Revelation Dance, which changes its type according to Oricorio’s style. It is also the only known Pokémon that can have Dancer as an Ability.
In its Pom-Pom Style, residing on Melemele Island in Alola and in southern Paldea, Oricorio is primarily yellow. Most of its body is pale yellow with a line of longer feathers around its waist like a skirt. Its lower body and short stubby tail are covered with short, white feathers. Fluffy balls of darker yellow feathers cover the end of its wings like pom-poms, and similar, smaller puffs cover its ankles. In the center of its chest is a yellow, v-shaped marking, and there are fan-shaped markings on the sides of its eyes. The markings around its eyes are echoed by three large, pale yellow feathers on each side of its head, which are tipped with bright yellow.
Pom-Pom Style Oricorio’s dancing charges its feathers with static electricity. While charged, its feathers can be used to attack and unleash electric shocks. It will also use its dancing to cheer up people who are feeling glum, but will also use this as an opening to shock unsuspecting foes. In Paldea, Pom-Pom Style is popular with children due to its energetic, cheerful dance. However, it is hard to find in said region.”-Bulbapedia.
