Linoone (Japanese: マッスグマ Massuguma) is a Template:Type2 Pokémon.
It evolves from Zigzagoon starting at level 20.
Biology
Physiology
Linoone are little weasel/badger-like creatures. Their long bodies are like a weasel's, and their sharp elongated claws are like a badger's. They also have small sharp teeth that are efficiently used with their claws in hunting. A long line stretches the length of the body, ending at an arrow atop the head. Linoone have small, tuft-like ears and blue eyes.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Since Linoone have a keen sense of smell, they are able to locate and Pickup items while its trainer walks around.
When the Generation IV games were introduced, Linoone was given another ability. Due to the fact that it loves berries more than almost anything else, it is a complete glutton when it comes to them.
Behavior
Linoone are incredibly fast, but they aren't the best at cornering, so they typically run in a straight line. Linoone have an attraction to anything round, and will grab any orb-shaped object they see if given the chance. They often carry a snatched object in their expandable cheek pouches and deposit it in any of a number of secret stashes they keep on their territory.
Habitat
Linoone tend to live in forests and grasslands, similar to actual racoons.
