Hoothoot
The Owl Pokémon
Type: Normal/Flying
Official Registration #: 163
Entry: A small, owl-like pokémon native to Johtonian forests. Its brain and equilibrium organs have the capability of keeping perfect time by sensing the rotation of the planet. As it keeps time, it hoots softly and bobs back and forth in perfect time with its internal clock. Because of its accuracy, some trainers, especially in hoothoot’s native region, prefer keeping hoothoot instead of alarm clocks, as hoothoot will be able to awaken a trainer precisely on time, no matter where the trainer is located. However, be warned: a hoothoot’s preferred method of rousing a trainer is repeatedly executing Peck on one’s face, and hoothoot do not necessarily understand the concept of “please do not wake me with Peck tomorrow for the love of Ho-oh.”
Noctowl
The Owl Pokémon
Type: Normal/Flying
Official Registration #: 164
Entry: The evolved form of hoothoot, by battle experience. According to some cultures, especially those in the West, noctowl are thought to be extremely intelligent beings, and thus, they are symbols of wisdom in those countries. However, the idea that noctowl possesses an inordinate amount of wisdom is actually a myth. Noctowl are actually about as intelligent, if not less intelligent, than the average bird, and in Johto, they are actually more known for flying into windows, despite their heightened ability to see in the dark.
