Rufflet is a small avian Pokémon with a blue body. A large white plume of feathers covers its head and three tail feathers extend from its lower back. The feathery ruff extends down past its neck, covering the upper third of its body. Its face is blue with five pointed tips, resembling a mask and crown in contrast to the white feathers surrounding it. Extending from its forehead is a large feather, which is red on the lower half and white on the upper half. The split between the two colors on the feather resembles a zigzag pattern. Rufflet's beak is short and wide, with large eyes on either side. Each eye has a thick black iris with a small white pupil. Its yellow legs and feet are large in comparison to the body. Each foot has four digits: one backwards, and three forwards.

Each foot has four digits: one backwards, and three forwards.


The thick, black talons on its feet are strong enough to break even the hardest of berries, and crack {{p|Shellder}} to consume their insides. Rufflet is extremely aggressive from birth and knowingly provokes opponents larger and more powerful than itself, including its own parent to gain acceptance. It sees this as a means of quickly getting stronger.
The thick, black talons on its feet are strong enough to break even the hardest of berries, and crack {{p|Shellder}} to consume their insides. Rufflet also preys on {{p|Spewpa}}. Rufflet is extremely aggressive from birth and knowingly provokes opponents larger and more powerful than itself, including its own parent to gain acceptance. It sees this as a means of quickly getting stronger. The more times Rufflet faints or gets injured, the stronger it becomes. Rufflet will start crying whenever it loses a battle. As a result of the harsh environment of [[Hisui]], Rufflet gains an additional {{type|Psychic}} when it evolves into Hisuian {{p|Braviary}}. Rufflet is a male-only species.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Rufflet may be considered a counterpart of {{p|Vullaby}}. Rufflet and Vullaby can evolve starting at [[level]] 54 and are both part {{t|Flying}}. Rufflet are exclusive to {{game|Black and White|s|White}}, {{game|Black and White|s 2|White 2}}, {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Sun}}, {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun}}, and {{pkmn|Sword and Shield|Sword}}; while Vullaby are exclusive to {{game|Black and White|s|Black}}, {{game|Black and White|s 2|Black 2}}, {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Moon}}, {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Moon}}, and {{pkmn|Sword and Shield|Shield}}. Whereas Rufflet can only be male, Vullaby can only be female.
* Rufflet and its Unovan evolution were designed by [[Takao Unno]].<ref name=ND205 />
* Rufflet is the only unevolved Pokémon that can learn {{m|Sky Drop}}.


===Origin===
===Origin===
Rufflet, like Braviary, is based on the {{wp|bald eagle}}, specifically a baby eaglet most likely, paralleling Rufflet's position as the start of its evolutionary line. Its color scheme is inspired by the red, white, and blue of the {{wp|flag of the United States}}. The single plume on his head also derives from {{wp|Native American}} culture.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20110402003550/http://shellspider.blog101.fc2.com/blog-entry-562.html Interview in Nintendo Dream Issue 205 (May 2011), via Fan blog post (Japanese)]</ref>
Because the setting of [[Pokémon Black and White]], [[Unova]], is based on the {{wp|New York metropolitan area}}, the game designers considered how they could incorporate this setting — and more broadly, of America — into their designs. Rufflet is based on the chick (also known as the [[Wiktionary:eaglet|eaglet]]) of the {{wp|bald eagle}}, the national bird of the United States. Its color scheme is inspired by the red, white, and blue of the {{wp|flag of the United States}}. The single plume on its head derives from {{wp|Native Americans in the United States|Native American}} culture.<ref name=ND205>''Nintendo Dream'' Vol. 205, May 2011 ([http://web.archive.org/web/20110402003550/http://shellspider.blog101.fc2.com/blog-entry-562.html Shellspider's blog (Japanese)], [http://lavacutcontent.com/ken-sugimori-nintendo-dream-6/ Translation by Dr. Lava])</ref>


Its ability to use its talons to crack open nuts and feed itself in the anime is similar to that of {{wp|parrot}}s, who are the only known bird species to do so.
