Noctowl (Japanese: ヨルノズク Yorunozuku) is a dual-type Normal/Flying Pokémon.
It evolves from Hoothoot starting at level 20.
Biology
Physiology
Noctowl looks much like a ‘normal’ owl, with a brown coloring and a triangle pattern of a darker shade of brown running down its chest. Its wings and wedge-shaped tail are dark brown like the pattern on its chest, although the underside of its wings is the same light brown as most of its body. It has bushy, cream-colored feather 'horns' that look similar to a trident or eyebrows. The ring pattern around its eyes and its talons are cream in coloration, and Noctowl’s beak and the nails of its talons are light pink. Addtionally, Noctowl’s irises are red.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Noctowl are nocturnal Pokémon. They have exceptional hearing and eyesight, can fly silently, and can turn their heads at a 180° angle to increase intellect.
Behavior
When it needs to think, it rotates its head 180 degrees to sharpen its intellectual power. It also silently sneaks up on prey without being detected.
Habitat
Noctowl normally only come out at night. They tend to make their nests in the trees of forests.
Diet
- Main article: Pokémon food
Judging from its entry in Pokémon Crystal and its sharp talons, Noctowl is likely a predatory Pokémon.
In the anime
Major appearances
Ash's Noctowl
Noctowl first appeared in Fowl Play!. A man was trying to capture a smaller, Shiny Noctowl by using traps, but kept failing due to the Owl Pokémon's intelligence. After Team Rocket was sent flying, the Noctowl allowed Ash to have the chance to capture it. After an intense battle, Ash succeeded.
Ash's Noctowl was used very much like his Pidgeotto, but it also had access to Psychic attacks such as Confusion which contributed greatly to Ash's victory against Morty. Ash left his Noctowl at Professor Oak's lab when he set out for the Hoenn region.
Noctowl returned in DP182 alongside several other members of Ash's reserves. It battled Conway's team in DP185.
Other
Wings Alexander also has a Noctowl, as seen in Throwing in the Noctowl. The latest Noctowl appearance was in One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team! where it seemed to be the normal Noctowl size, not the smaller size that every other Noctowl seen so far has been.
Minor appearances
A Noctowl appeared in Aiding the Enemy!.
Another appeared in Pursuing a Lofty Goal! belonging to a participant of the PokéRinger competition.
