Maractus is a cactus-like Pokémon, with large ear-like extensions. These extensions feature dark green spiky arrangements at the base, yellow spikes further up, and flowers, with pink petals and yellow centers, at the top. It has a yellow spike on its head, yellow eyes and a spiky-looking mouth. Other dark green spiky arrangements adorn its neck, the wrists of its yellow-fingered arms, and base. Its base features further such green spikes arranged in a five-pointed star.
Maractus is a cactus-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, with a pair of large ear-like extensions emerging from its head, reminiscent of cactus arms. These extensions feature dark green spiky arrangements at the base, yellow spikes midway up, and are topped with flowers composed of six pink petals and a yellow center. It has a yellow spike on its forehead, yellow eyes, and a spiky-looking mouth. It has two lobe-like arms resembling those of cacti, and its hands each feature three yellow spines serving as fingers. Other dark green spiky arrangements adorn its neck, wrists, and the base of its body where the green spikes are arranged in a five-pointed star.


When Maractus moves its body rhythmically, it emits sounds reminiscent of maracas being played. This allows Maractus to produce up-tempo songs and dances that it can use to scare away predators. Avian Pokémon in particular may try to feed on its flower seeds.

* Two of Maractus's [[Ability|Abilities]] revolve around how a real-world cactus stores water with great efficiency: {{a|Water Absorb}} absorbs direct damage to restore health from them as well as making it immune to them, while {{a|Storm Drain}} draws in {{type|Water}} moves directed at another target, also making it immune.

* Although Maractus can only be found at the [[Desert Resort]] in [[Generation V]] where a permanent {{weather|sandstorm}} rages, it cannot have any Ability negating sandstorm damage, nor is it {{t|Rock}}-, {{t|Ground}}-, or {{type|Steel}}, and thus it is susceptible to damage by the sandstorm.

===Origin===
===Origin===
Maractus appears to be based on a flowering cactus, most likely the {{wp|Opuntia|prickly pear}}, and a {{wp|maraca}}. It also physically resembles a {{wp|rabbit}} and may be a visual pun on the {{wp|Opuntia microdasys|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 be based on Spanish dances, possibly the Mexican version of the Cuban {{wp|Son (music)|Son}}.
