Quaxly (Pokémon): Difference between revisions
i'll try finding the image for the messy hair and uploading it later (it was from one of those Team Rocket end segments). Serebii has a similar screenshot, but i want to pick a different frame (plus i don't want to repost Serebii's screens anyway). also i'm re-adding the "Teal" pun since it's also present in the Chinese name, as well as the Japanese category.

Quaxly is a white duckling-like Pokémon. It has a yellow beak and blue eyes. It has teal webbed feet and a large teal coif-like crest that covers its head, with a feathery tuft in the front and a white curvy line shaped like a wave. Quaxly's coif has a smooth feel thanks to the rich, moist cream that holds it. The coif can become unkempt should it get dry.<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/quaxly/ Quaxly — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet | Official Website]</ref> | Quaxly is a white duckling-like Pokémon.

Quaxly appears to be based on a young {{wp|Crested (duck breed)|crested duck}}. The crest itself resembles a {{wp|beret}}, a {{wp|turban}}, or a {{wp|pompadour hairstyle}}. The teal colorations on its feet and crest may be inspired by the {{wp|blue-footed booby}}. | Quaxly appears to be based on a young {{wp|Crested (duck breed)|crested duck}}.
