'''Noctowl''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヨルノズク''' ''Yorunozuku'') is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Flying}} Pokémon.


It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Hoothoot}} starting at [[level]] 20.

===Physiology===
[[File:Wings Alexander Noctowl.png|250px|left|thumb|Wings Alexander's Noctowl]]
Noctowl looks much like a ‘normal’ owl, with a brown coloring and a triangle pattern of a darker shade of brown running down its chest. Its wings and wedge-shaped tail are dark brown like the pattern on its chest, although the underside of its wings is the same light brown as most of its body. It has bushy, cream-colored feather 'horns' that look similar to a {{wp|trident}} or {{wp|eyebrows}}. The ring pattern around its eyes and its talons are cream in coloration, and Noctowl’s beak and the nails of its talons are light pink. Addtionally, Noctowl’s irises are red.
Noctowl is an {{wp|Aves|avian}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that resembles an owl. It has light brown plumage with a darker brown pattern of triangles on its chest. Its fan-like tail is the same dark brown, while its wings are a slightly lighter shade of brown with light brown undersides. It has red eyes with black rings around them and a second, cream-colored ring around the first. Above its eyes are bushy, cream-colored feather "horns" that resemble large eyebrows. Its small beak and talons are pinkish, and its feet are cream-colored with three toes facing forward and one backward. As [[EP223|shown]] in the {{pkmn|anime}}, an elderly Noctowl can grow a small beard.
====Gender differences====
None.


[[File:Ash Noctowl head.png|200px|thumb|A {{Shiny}} Noctowl rotating its head]]
Noctowl is a [[nocturnal Pokémon]] that is called "the emperor of dark nights" by some. It has exceptional eyes that concentrate the faintest light and give it night vision, supple wings capable of silent flight, and it can twist its head at a 180-degree angle to increase its intellect. Its superior senses and intellect allow it to catch prey without fail in the darkness. It can also turn its head upside down, which signals that it is troubled by something. If disturbed in this state, it will peck at the offender. Noctowl is most commonly found nesting in trees in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|temperate and boreal forests}}.
===Special abilities===
Noctowl are [[nocturnal Pokémon]]. They have exceptional hearing and eyesight, can fly silently, and can turn their heads at a 180° angle to increase intellect.


===Behavior===
In [[Kitakami]], Noctowl is used for the region's [[Flying Taxi]] service.
When it needs to think, it rotates its head 180 degrees to sharpen its intellectual power. It also silently sneaks up on prey without being detected.


===Habitat===
===Evolution===
[[Image:Forest.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon}}]]
Noctowl evolves from {{p|Hoothoot}}.
Noctowl normally only come out at night. They tend to make their nests in the trees of forests.


===Diet===
(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data&rarr;Evolution data]].)
{{main|Pokémon food}}
<div style="float:center; display:flex; flex-flow:row wrap;">
Judging from its entry in Pokémon Crystal and its sharp talons, Noctowl is likely a predatory Pokémon.

===Origin===
===Origin===
Noctowl's appearance is based on that of the {{wp|Eagle Owl}}.
Noctowl seems to be based on a {{wp|horned owl}}, particularly the {{wp|Eurasian eagle-owl}} due to its red eyes. The feathers that make up its "horns" also resemble a pair of large, bushy eyebrows, which can be interpreted as a sign of age and wisdom, traits that are sometimes associated with owls. This association with wisdom may also explain its ability to learn various {{t|Psychic}}-type moves.  


====Name origin====
====Name origin====
Noctowl's name is a combination of ''{{wp|nocturnal}}'' and ''{{wp|owl}}''. Its Japanese name is a combination of 夜 ''yoru'' (night), and 木菟 ''mimizuku'' ({{wp|horned owl}}).
Noctowl may be a combination of ''{{wp|nocturnal}}'' and ''{{wp|owl}}''.
