Trivia
- Marakacchi is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 461.
- Marakacchi is the only Template:Type2 Pokémon capable of learning Peck.
- Marakacchi shares its species name with Cacnea. They are both known as Cactus Pokémon.
- Two of Marakacchi's abilities revolve around a real-world cactus's tolerance to water: Water Absorb absorbs direct damage to restore health from them, also making it immune, while Storm Drain draws in Template:Type2 moves directed at another target, as well as making it immune to them.
- Although Marakacchi can only be found at the Resort Desert where a permanent sandstorm rages, it cannot have the Sand Veil ability, nor is it Rock-, Ground-, or Steel-type, and thus is susceptible to damage by the sandstorm.
Origin
Marakacchi appears to be based on a flowering cactus, most likely the prickly pear, and a maraca. It also physically resembles a rabbit and may be a visual pun on the bunny ears cactus. It also seems to be based on traditional Mexican dress styles and, due to the fact that it dances and makes maraca-like sounds, may mean it probably may be based on Spanish dances, possibly the Mexican version of the Cuban Son.
Name origin
Its name is likely a combination of maraca and mariachi.
