Tinkatuff lives in homes made from piles of scrap metal. Two Tinkatuff will smash their hammers together in order to test out the hammer's strength. Tinkatuff preys on groups of {{p|Pawniard}} and {{p|Bisharp}} in order to collect metal. The material is used to make its large, sturdy hammer.
Tinkatuff is a pink humanoid Pokémon, with a large head and arms and short, stumpy toeless feet with light pink circles underneath. Its arms have three fingers each, and it has what appears to be steel plates on its hips. Its head has light pink circles on its cheeks, silver eyes, and a mouth with square teeth-like growths on the upper and lower lips. It has thin eyebrows or eyelashes above its eyes that give it a perpetually angered expression. On top of its head is a white growth resembling hair tied into a ponytail, with a light pink zigzag pattern on the rim where the growth meets the head.
 
Tinkatuff carries a large, gray, crude yet sturdy hammer, with loose metal plates for the hammer head and what appears to be the old hammer Tinkatuff had as a {{p|Tinkatink}} on top of the shaft. Tinkatuff makes its hammer using metal it collects from groups of {{p|Pawniard}} and {{p|Bisharp}}, which it preys on. Two Tinkatuff will smash their hammers together in order to test out the hammers' strength. Tinkatuff lives in homes made from piles of scrap metal. It is a female-only species.
