Oinkologne (Japanese: パフュートン Perfuton) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation IX.

It evolves from Lechonk starting at level 18.

Biology

Oinkologne is a quadrupedal Pokémon resembling a hog, with differing physiques between the male and the female. Generally speaking, Oinkologne has a large, stout build with a smooth, glossy coat. It has yellow growths underneath its eyes that resemble eyelashes, droopy triangular ears with yellow insides, a triangular snout, and a long, thin tail that curls counter-clockwise. It has well-developed leg muscles, which allow it to leap to a height of over 16 feet (5 meters). Both genders of Oinkologne have pink colorations on their eyelids, snouts, cloven hooves, and the tips of their tails, although the pink colorations on the male is more saturated than that of the female. The male also has a larger left ear and a shorter right ear, and vice versa for the female.

The body of a male Oinkologne is entirely grayish black, with darker colorations on its face and ears. Its tail ends in a bulb or flower bud-like shape, which is able to unleash a concentrated sweet scent to cover its body, in order to attract female Pokémon. The male Oinkologne is the only known Pokémon that can have Lingering Aroma as an Ability.

In contrast, female Oinkologne has a dark brownish coat with a lighter brown color on its face and ears, and its tail ends in three long appendages. Its body is surrounded by a floral aroma that calms nearby Pokémon. The female Oinkologne enjoys keeping things tidy, taking a meticulous approach to it.

Trivia

• Oinkologne is the only Pokémon introduced in Generation IX to have gender differences.
  • Furthermore, it is the only Pokémon with gender differences to learn the same moves at different levels.
• Oinkologne is the only Pokémon to have a signature Ability for only one of its genders.

Origin

Oinkologne appears to be based on various pig breeds native to the Iberian Peninsula: its coloration, especially on the male, resembles the black Iberian pig, while the fur patterning on the female and the droopy ears on both genders resemble those of the Celtic pig. The ears are also reminiscent of hairstyles in emo culture for the male, and an asymmetrical bob cut for the female. The tail of the male appears to be based on a perfume atomizer, while the female's tail appears to be a perfume tassel. The shiny coloration of Oinkologne may be based on the crossbreed of a black Iberian pig and a Duroc pig.

The gender difference of Oinkologne and the signature Ability Lingering Aroma of males could be based on the fact that androstenol, the sex pheromone of male pigs, is also founded in truffles; and hence only female pigs are trained as truffle hogs. Oinkologne's behavior may also be based on common beauty and fashion tropes, which are often associated with heavy use of perfumes and colognes. In general, Oinkologne's design seems to derive from the fact that pigs prefer cleanliness, which is the opposite of the common thinking that pigs are filthy. It could also be a visual play on the phrase "lipstick on a pig".

Name origin

Oinkologne may be a combination of oink (the sound a pig makes) and cologne. It may also involve bologna, a type of pork meat.

Perfuton may be a combination of perfume and 豚 ton (pig).
