Ogerpon (Pokémon): Difference between revisions

Ogerpon is a predominantly green, humanoid [[Pokémon]]. Its green torso is spotted with white flowers and yellow dots, and it is capable of extending green and black vines of ivy. Its long legs are black in the front and white in the back, and its two-toed feet each have two green leaves sprouting between the toes. Its torso is mostly covered by a large, green, multicolored cloak-like structure that extends from a stem on top of its head. This cloak frames its face with a large, black, thorny vine, the two uppermost thorns resembling horns. While the cloak's sleeves move as if Ogerpon has arms beneath them, it actually has no arms or even shoulders; the cloak itself is prehensile and serves as its arms, with the "sleeves" able to grasp and manipulate objects. Ogerpon can also extend a prehensile branch and vine from its torso. Ogerpon has an orange face, yellow eyes with white, star-shaped pupils and small green leaves at the edges that loosely resemble eyelashes, a three-pointed leaf that serves as hair, small black markings on its eyebrows and cheeks, and two pointed fangs in its upper jaw. Its face is usually hidden behind one of its masks, and in battle, it wields {{m|Ivy Cudgel|a large, spiky cudgel wrapped in ivy}}; these tools are stored under its cloak when not in use. Ogerpon is a female-only species with no male counterpart.

Ogerpon is a very intelligent Pokémon with a playful mischief-loving side. It’s full of curiosity about the lives of people and other Pokémon, usually spending time with humans while wearing a mask to blend in with them in [[Kitakami]]'s [[Festival of Masks]]. Usually causing trouble, such as by stealing snacks from the [[Mossui Town|village]]’s food supply or making off with items that caught its eye.<ref>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/ogerpon/ Scarlet and Violet | Ogerpon]</ref> It fights by confusing its opponents with its nimble movements and kicks, and it draws [[type]]-based energy from its masks, imbuing its cudgel with different elements. Ogerpon becomes weaker if its masks are taken away, and its full power can be restored to it by returning its masks. This species is known to have a very long lifespan; [[Ogerpon (game)|one specimen]] is confirmed to have been alive for hundreds of years. Ogerpon is mortal enemies with the [[Loyal Three]] and their leader {{p|Pecharunt}}, mainly due to the group's actions towards it in the past. In [[Kitakami]], it is often described as an "ogre".

On each side of the mouth is a group of three green leaves, each one larger than the leaf beneath. The top of the mask features five teal leaves that form a crown of sorts, with the four outer leaves each having a hole cut towards the center. The mask contains nine Tera crystals: two that resemble squinting eyes, six as the "veins" of the green leaves, and one large, four-pointed crystal set in the central teal leaf as the crown jewel.

The entire mask is framed by blue hair that forms a heart shape, with a streak of lighter blue hair on each side. The face is white with circular, light blue eyebrows, simple black lines for a closed mouth and eyes, and two large tears made of Tera crystals beneath the eyes.

Its eyes are yellow with Tera crystals for pupils, it has a small, flat nose just over its mouth, and it has a bright-blue feature that begins behind its nose and curves upward beneath its eyes, forming a strange sort of moustache.
