Zigzagoon is a raccoon-like quadruped Pokémon with bristly, zigzag-patterned fur made of layers of cream and brown color. It has a brown head with spiky ears. It has a black nose and a mask pattern over its brown eyes. The upper half of its mouth is jagged, and when it is open, there are two pointed teeth in its lower jaw. Its feet have three claws and pink paw pads. Its forefeet are cream-colored, and the hind feet are brown. Its brush tail is spiky and bristly.

Zigzagoon is abundantly curious, as it wanders restlessly back and forth while rubbing its nose to the ground in search of something. It rubs its bristly back air against trees to mark its territory, and plays dead to fool opponents in battle. Zigzagoon is found commonly in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grassy fields}}.
