Pecharunt (Japanese: モモワロウ Momowarō) is a dual-type Poison/Ghost Mythical Pokémon introduced in Generation IX, in The Indigo Disk.
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.
It seems to be associated with the Loyal Three.
Biology
Pecharunt feeds toxic mochi it produces to other Pokémon and humans. The mochi draws out other's desires and potential abilities, but others who taste it become chained to its will and become controlled. It stores its poison in its peach shaped shell. It is the creator of the Loyal Three, having transformed these three Pokémon using the Toxic Chains it creates.
Pecharunt is the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Malignant Chain. It is also the only known Pokémon that can have Poison Puppeteer as an Ability.

Trivia
- Before the official reveal of Pecharunt, a figure similar to its closed shell appeared in Ogerpon's story told by Kieran and Carmine's grandfather in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: The Teal Mask.

- Pecharunt is the only Poison-type Mythical Pokémon, excluding Arceus while holding a Toxic Plate.
- Pecharunt has the highest base Defense stat of all Ghost-type Pokémon.
Origin
Pecharunt, together with Okidogi, Munkidori, Fezandipiti, and Ogerpon, may reference the Japanese folktale of Momotarō. The tale relates the titular Momotarō, a boy born from inside a peach, who traveled alongside a talking dog, monkey, and pheasant to fight a band of oni (a Japanese folkloric creature commonly equated to ogres in translations). Pecharunt appears to represent Momotarō himself. Its outer shell covering resembles a bisected peach or Pecha Berry, referencing how Momotarō was found as a baby inside a cut peach, also resembling a peach pit.
Name origin
Pecharunt may be a combination of peach, Pecha Berry, runt, and petulant.
Momowarō may be a combination of 桃太郎 Momotarō, 桃 momo (peach), 悪し waroshi (bad or inferior; the classical Japanese form of 悪い warui), and 和郎 warō (boy).
