Okidogi (Japanese: イイネイヌ Iineinu) is a Pokémon introduced in Generation IX, with The Teal Mask.
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.
Along with Munkidori and Fezandipiti, it is a member of the Loyal Three.
Biology
Okidogi is a bulky, bipedal canine Pokémon, with broad shoulders, pointy ears, and a large, fluffy tail. Its fur is almost entirely black, except for the green on its muzzle, face, chest, hands, back, waist, thighs, and feet. It has magenta crescent-shaped markings on its face, which also contains yellow eyes, a rounded magenta nose, and sharp teeth. Its ears have magenta insides, and its hands have five fingers each and magenta paw pads. Hanging around its neck is a magenta chain which resembles a leash.
Okidogi, together with Munkidori and Fezandipiti, are known as the Loyal Three, the heroes of Kitakami. They are beloved by the people of Kitakami as heroes that once protected the land from an evil ogre,[1] and stone statues bearing their likenesses were made by the people as an expression of their gratitude.[2]
Trivia
Origin
Okidogi seems to be based on a dog, specifically the Shiba Inu or the Japanese Akita, as it shares a bulkier appearance with the latter.
Okidogi, together with Munkidori, Fezandipiti, and Ogerpon, may reference the Japanese folktale of Momotarō. The tale relates the titular Momotarō, a boy born from inside a peach, who traveled alongside a talking dog, monkey, and pheasant to fight a band of oni (a Japanese folkloric creature commonly equated to ogres in translations).
Name origin
Okidogi may be a combination of okie-dokie (variant of "okay") and dog.
Iineinu may be a combination of いいね ii ne (interjection to express approval) and 犬 inu (dog).
