In the anime

Exeggcute also appeared in "Pikachu's Rescue Adventure." Pikachu and company, plus Elekid found Misty's Togepi hanging around an Exeggcute that was missing a member of its batch.

Trivia

Origin

It appears to be a mixture of a batch of eggs as well as a set of coconuts.

Name origin

Exeggcute's name is a play on the phrase "eggs are cute." It is also a play on the word execute. Tamatama could be taken to mean 偶々, unexpectedly, although it is more likely to be derived from 玉 tama, sphere, doubled. It is worth noting that the Japanese word for egg is 卵 tamago.

In other languages

  • German: Owei
  • French: Noeunoeuf - probably from nœud meaning node, and ouef meaning egg
  • Korean: 아라리 Arari
