English and Japanese name origins
Pikipeck is most likely derived from picus (Latin for woodpecker), possibly pico (Spanish for beak or crest), and peck. Tsutsukera is a combination of 突く tsutsuku (to peck) and 啄木鳥 keratsutsuki (woodpecker).--Siobonbon (talk) 18:10, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- The Latin terminology is seen in the scientific names Picidae and Piciformes for the woodpecker family and order, respectively. This is almost certainly part of the name origin and should be included. ~Destruction on Wings~ (talk) 20:21, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
Trivia
This Pokemon was originally revealed as a wireframe model in the Sun and Moon Announcement Trailer. - unsigned comment from Theexploringgamer (talk • contribs)
Evolutions
Somewhat irrelevant but the Pokedex showed that Pikipek is the first of a 3-stage evolution. --Buffbills7701 (talk) 18:55, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
technically, it only showed that it was related to two other pokemon, which can either be evolutions as you pointed out, or other kinds of counterparts. like how weedle is caterpie's counterpart. Yamitora1 (talk) 06:49, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
Pokedex Entry
If it is relevant to put in, can someone put this in?

- Unfortunately, we don't know whether that's for Sun or Moon. ht14 21:37, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
- I think for now it's fine to put it in for both Theexploringgamer (talk) 14:42, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
- Why would that be fine? It's typical that new paired versions have different Pokedex entries, so why is it "fine" to put down what amounts to a lie? Pumpkinking0192 (talk) 14:58, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
- Because you don't have to be technical all the time. I'd rather have some information then no information. This is a wiki, it's meant to be changed when we find out things.Theexploringgamer (talk) 17:46, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
- It is meant to be changed when fully confirmed details are known. In this case, wiki staff have already said that Gen VII information, especially Pokédex entries, will NOT be added until the games are released because of the number of current unknowns as well as the chance that things can change between now and release. Arguing will not change their minds about this. ChE clarinetist (talk) 18:00, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
- ChE clarinetist is correct. We do not know which game will have which entry, and while we COULD put the entry in now, we are by doing so affirming that the entry comes from these we say it comes from, and we cannot affirm that. the entry is already added, but hidden from view, so the text has already been placed; however, we have not added the template therein because we just don't know yet what game is getting the entry (we don't know if they demoed Sun or Moon). When the games release, staff will be busy finding out all of the pertinent information, and entries/movesets/etc. will slowly be updated over time, and you'll be able to add more information after that as time goes on if we miss something. Until then, just the basic confirmed information will be added to the article. CycloneGU (talk) 20:30, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

Origin
Can it be put in that it is based off of a Pileated Woodpecker please? Playerking95 (talk) 20:29, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
Tiki?
could its name also be a corruption of tiki? afterall, this is a hawaii based region and tikis are often made of wood. Yamitora1 (talk) 04:03, 15 June 2016 (UTC)
