Physiology[edit | edit source]
The Spiky-Eared Pichu shares many similarities between your standard Pichu; the small, rodent-like body with black markings and pink cheeks, however, there are a few ways to differentiate the two. For starters, the right ear is slightly shorter and has pointed black tufts on the end, hence the name. It can be hard to tell, but it also is a slightly different shade of yellow, just slightly. Spiky-Eared Pichu, as expected, cannot control the electricity in their bodies and may shock someone accidentally, especially if scared or excited. The shock is not fatal, but it can hurt; think of a staticky door handle at a kindergarten.
Diet[edit | edit source]
The Spiky-Eared Pichu is an herbivore. It mainly gets its source of water from the various plants it eats; berries, moss, various types of leaves and fruits if available. They may also eat mushrooms, dry grasses or any treats given. They like to store the food they gather in a place hidden inside of their cozy hidey-holes, where they'll only share with their closest of trusted friends.
Behavior[edit | edit source]
As mentioned, the Spiky-Eared Pichu often hides out in a small den it digs out, usually in the crevice of or under a rock or in packed, stable mud. The den will be supported with straw and other small pebbles that the Pichu can gather.
The average day of a Spiky-Eared Pichu is very busy. First, it will get up early in the morning, cover up the den with things like grass and twigs and leave for the big day. Most of the day is spent stealthily gathering items, from nest materials to various food items as listed above. The Pichu must be careful of various predators like Ekans, Seviper, Ariados, Pidgeotto, Braviary, Poochyena, etc. If faced with these creatures, it may use the shocks to its advantage to spook them, and then will proceed to dart away very quickly in a wide, mesmerizing and confusing pattern depending on which predator is hunting it down. If the Pichu escapes, the Pichu will swiftly run into the deepest, furthest chamber of its den and perhaps dig deeper to feel safer. They have been known to make elaborate escape tunnels that span all over the forest.
The food stored over a long period of time will be used for hibernation. Extra chambers may be blocked off to prevent cold air from coming in.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- Some menace has been catching these and turning them into strange balls of light. If one can figure out the orb, they can release the Pichu and get a new friend.
