Hoothoot is an {{wp|Aves|avian}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that resembles an {{wp|owl}} with a round body. Most of its feathers are brown, but its belly is cream-colored. It has large, red eyes; a small, pinkish beak; stubby wings; and a fan-like tail with three feathers. Encircling its eyes are black rings; the lower rims of each ring have three protrusions that resemble the teeth on a gear, while the upper rims have extensions that resemble the hands of a clock. As seen in the [[JN009|anime]], Hoothoot's feathers can grow to be shaggy, and the protrusions on its head droop. It has two pinkish feet, each with five-clawed toes. However, it will typically only stand on one foot at a time and alternates between the two at speeds too difficult to track with the naked eye. | Hoothoot is an {{wp|Aves|avian}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that resembles an {{wp|owl}} with a round body.

Hoothoot begins crying at | Hoothoot begins crying at the same time every day and always tilts its head in the same rhythm. This ability is due to a special internal organ that senses the [[Pokémon world|world's]] rotation, allowing it to keep track of time. As a result, Hoothoot was once considered a divine messenger sent to tell the time. Some countries see Hoothoot as a deity of wisdom. Historically, people raised Hoothoot to serve as clocks — a practice still done by some {{pkmn|Trainer}}s today. Hoothoot is most commonly found nesting in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|trees in temperate and boreal forests}}. Hoothoot is {{pkmn2|nocturnal}}, and during the day, it sleeps in holes carved into tree trunks. | ||
