'''Whimsicott''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''エルフーン''' ''Elfuun'') is a dual {{t|Grass}}/{{t|Fairy}} Pokémon, and prior to [[Generation VI]], a pure {{type|Grass}} Pokémon.
'''Whimsicott''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''エルフーン''' ''Elfuun'') is a dual-type {{t|Grass}}/{{t|Fairy}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation V]]. Prior to [[Generation VI]], it was a pure {{type|Grass}} Pokémon.


It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Cottonee}} when it is exposed to a {{evostone|Sun Stone}}.

==Biology==
==Biology==
Whimsicott is a small, brown bipedal Pokémon with a vaguely sheep-like appearance. There is a cotton-like substance covering its back, neck, and forehead. Behind it is a green, star shaped section similar to the area where a plant connects to its produce. It has orange, oval-shaped eyes and green, curled horns or ears. Whimsicott can manipulate its body to pass through cracks, no matter how narrow. Because of this, Whimsicott is a notorious prankster, moving things and leaving cotton balls behind. It also can ride through whirlwinds.
Whimsicott is a small, brown, bipedal {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. A mane of cotton-like fluff covers its back, neck, and forehead. Behind it is a green, star-shaped section similar to where a stem or vine meets a fruit or flower on a plant. Whimsicott's face features orange, oval-shaped eyes and its face is flanked by a pair of green-colored lobes shaped like curled horns or ears.  


==In the anime==
Whimsicott can manipulate its body to pass through cracks, no matter how narrow. It takes advantage of this ability as a notorious prankster, moving things and leaving cotton balls behind. However, should it get wet, it will be too heavy to move and answer for its pranks. Despite weighing 14.6 lbs (6.6 kg), Whimsicott appears capable of "riding upon the wind" but whether this means they actually generate whirlwinds themselves or get carried by wind currents remains unclear. Whimsicott likes to spend time in the sunlight in order to grow its cotton, though it will tear off and scatter the cotton should it start to build up too much.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Whimsicott represents {{wp|April}} in the [[Unova]] [[horoscope]].
* Whimsicott and its pre-evolved form were designed by [[Atsuko Nishida]].<ref name=CFPPage1>[https://funs-project.com/poplab/007/ Fun's Project interview with Atsuko Nishida (Page 1)]</ref><ref name=ND204>''Nintendo Dream'' Vol. 204, April 2011 ([https://web.archive.org/web/20110704155314/http://shellspider.blog101.fc2.com/blog-entry-502.html Shellspider's blog (Japanese)], [http://lavacutcontent.com/ken-sugimori-nintendo-dream-2/ Translation by Dr. Lava])</ref>
* As of [[Generation VI]], no other Pokémon have [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|the same type combination]] as Whimsicott.
* Whimsicott represents {{wp|April}} in the [[horoscope|Unova horoscope]].
* Whimsicott is the only Pokémon with a double weakness to the {{t|Poison}} type and is one of the only three Pokémon to have ever had one, alongside {{p|Paras}} and {{p|Parasect}}, which had one only in [[Generation I]], because {{t|Bug}} was weak to Poison at that time.
* Whimsicott and {{p|Lilligant}} can be seen as counterparts. They share a base stat total of 480, are part of two-stage evolutionary lines, and evolve using a [[Sun Stone]]. Additionally, Whimsicott is exclusive to {{game|Black and White|s|Pokémon Black}}, {{game3|Black and White|Black 2|s 2}}, {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Sun}}, and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun}}, while Lilligant is exclusive to Pokémon White, White 2, Moon, and Ultra Moon.


===Origin===
===Origin===
Whimsicott appears to be based on a fully bloomed ball of {{wp|cotton}}. It also may draw some origin from the {{wp|Vegetable Lamb of Tartary}}, which was a type of sheep-growing plant that was used to explain the production of cotton in the middle ages. It may also have been based on the Brazilian folklore creature known as the {{wp|Saci (Brazilian folklore)|Saci}}; both are brown creatures that live in forests, ride on winds, and play pranks. They also appear to be based on a {{wp|sheep}}.
Whimsicott is based on a fully bloomed ball of {{wp|cotton}} and a {{wp|sheep}};<ref name=ND204/> the connection appears to be made because both cotton and sheep produce clothing material. This association with sheep is reinforced by Whimsicott's inclusion in the [[horoscope|Unova horoscope]]. Designer Atsuko Nishida has also humorously mentioned the ''Genghis Khan'' (also known as ''{{wp|Jingisukan}}''), a Japanese grilled mutton dish, as an inspiration.<ref name=CFPPage1/> Whimsicott may also draw some origin from the {{wp|Vegetable Lamb of Tartary}}, a mythical "sheep-growing" plant used to explain the production of cotton in the Middle Ages.  
 
Whimsicott's behavior as a windswept wandering plant seems to be based on {{wp|tumbleweed}}s. Furthermore, it displays a mischievous side akin to impish creatures from folklore like the Brazilian {{wp|Saci (Brazilian folklore)|Saci}}; both are brown creatures that live in forests, ride on winds, and play pranks. Its whimsical nature and windborne properties also make it similar to a variety of {{wp|fairies}}.
