Exeggcute is a Pokémon resembling six light pink eggs, usually seen arranged with five heads huddled around a sixth. Each "head" has a slightly different facial expression, but each face has triangular eyes with tiny black pupils and a small mouth. Each shell has some cracks, and one member of the bundle usually has its yellow insides or brain exposed. More numerous cracks are a sign that it is close to evolution. Despite looking like eggs, Exeggcute is actually more closely related to plant seeds. It is believed to carry genes of plants and other species.
Exeggcute gathers in swarms of six. The heads communicate with each other by using a form of telepathy that only they can understand. Should the number of Exeggcute be reduced to less than six, the remaining Exeggcute will attempt to replace it with a similarly sized Pokémon as seen in the anime. It needs six Exeggcute in order to stay balanced or else it becomes nervous and cowardly. Pidgeotto and Crabrawler are its natural predators, which it chases off with psychokinesis. Exeggcute inhabits jungles and forests. Exeggcute in the Alola region tend to be heavier than those from elsewhere. This is due to the shells being packed full.
In Pikachu's Rescue Adventure, Pikachu and his friends, plus an Elekid, found Misty's Togepi hanging around an Exeggcute, which was missing a member of its batch. It evolved when all of the eggs were put back together while standing on a Leaf Stone.
Five Exeggcute appeared in Securing the Future!, with two under the ownership of different Trainers and the other three being wild. They joined the rest of Alola in showering Necrozma with light so it could return to its true form.
An Exeggcute appeared in Murkrow Row as one of the residents of Gold's house. However, it only has five eggs instead of six, and none of them have any cracks.
This Pokémon consists of six eggs that form a closely knit cluster. The six eggs attract each other and spin around. When cracks increasingly appear on the eggs, Exeggcute is close to evolution.

Exeggcute shares its category with Chansey. They are both known as the Egg Pokémon.
Despite being able to learn Solar Beam by level up, Exeggcute cannot learn it by TM in Generation I.
Despite being consisted of six individuals from different births and having separate identities, all six merge during evolution to form a single Exeggutor.[1]
Origin
Exeggcute may be based on both plant seeds and a clutch of eggs. It is possibly a visual pun on an eggplant, though it may also have been inspired by the "Egg Yolk" tomato, or the bird's nest fungi. It may also draw inspiration from coconuts, considering Exeggutor's resemblance to a palm tree and the fact that Exeggcute is hunted by Crabrawler, which may be based on a coconut crab.
Name origin
Exeggcute may be a combination of execute, egg, and cute.
Tamatama could be taken to mean たまたま (unexpectedly), although it is more likely to be derived from 玉子 tamago (egg).
