Farfetch'd (Japanese: カモネギ Kamonegi) is a dual-type Normal/Flying Pokémon.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

Biology

Farfetch'd resembles a brown, cartoon-like duck with a white underbelly. It has a yellow beak and a V-shaped, black marking on its forehead. It has wings as big as its body, which appear to be prehensile enough to substitute for hands. It has yellow legs with webbed feet.

Farfetch'd is always seen carrying a leek stalk or spring onion. It carries it in its wings, and sometimes chooses to hold it in its beak or feet instead. Unable to live without its stick, Farfetch'd will the stalk with its life. Known uses for the stick include use as a weapon, nesting material, and emergency food source. It is selective about which sticks it will use, and has been known to fight over good ones. Farfetch'd is found in grasslands.

Trivia

  • Farfetch'd is the only non-glitch Pokémon with an apostrophe in its name.
  • Farfetch'd is so far the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 352.

Origin

Bulbanews
Bulbanews has an article related to this subject:

Farfetch'd's origin might have come from a certain Japanese saying: 鴨が葱を背負って来る, literally translating to 'a duck comes bearing green onions'. As a saying, it means 'something surprising but convenient'. The phrase can be shortened simply to 鴨葱.

Name origin

Farfetch'd is derived from far-fetched, meaning unbelievable. It could also refer to the game of fetch, which animals play using objects.

Kamonegi is a combination of 鴨 kamo (wild duck) and 葱 negi (spring onion). Additionally, 鴨葱 kamonegi is an abbreviation of the proverb 鴨が葱をしょって来る ("a duck comes bearing green onions"), which means 'something surprising but convenient'.
