Biology

Fezandipiti releasing its pheromones

Fezandipiti is an avian Pokémon with a small head, a short beak with a magenta tip, and a long neck and legs. Its plumage is primarily black, with white on its head and neck, and bronze accents on its face, collar, and wing tips. It stands atop a pair of long slender bronze-colored legs having three-toed feet with sharp claws, and its tail consists of a long train of bronze-colored feathers ending in forked tips that gently curl outwards. A single white stripe accents each of its legs and tail. A crest of black feathers resembling a cap sits atop Fezandipiti's head, with golden feathers sticking out resembling a royal crown. A pair of magenta plumes also sits just above each of Fezandipiti's eyes like eyebrows and extend like long streamers with forked ends. Hanging from Fezandipiti's chest is a pair of magenta Toxic Chains, protruding from a shawl-like feature that wraps its body. Fezandipiti is a male-only species with no female counterpart.

Spoiler warning: this article may contain major plot or ending details.

In myth, it is said that Fezandipiti was once a Pokémon with short, dull feathers, but a wish to be beautiful led it meet the Mythical Pokémon Pecharunt, in need of retainers in its journey to Kitakami, used its Binding Mochi and Toxic Chain to tame and transform Fezandipiti. This resulted in the Toxic Chain being wrapped around its waist, chaining Fezandipiti to Pecharunt's will.^[1] Fezandipiti transformed, enhancing its capabilities and giving it beautiful looks and a lovely voice. It possesses powerful pheromones, capable of captivating both humans and Pokémon with a beat of its glossy wings to scatter them through the air. It traveled from a distant land with Munkidori, Okidogi, and Pecharunt to steal the masks of Ogerpon and its partner and gift them to Pecharunt's caretakers, Okidogi and Fezandipiti were sent to sneak into Ogerpon's cave while the two were away, managing to steal three of them, but Ogerpon's partner return in time to see what was happening and fend them off, managing to protect one of the masks, though left heavily injured. After finding out, Ogerpon encounters the four close to Mossui Town, and attacks them, Fezandipiti losing its life in the fight along with the other retainers. Pecharunt managed to survive, being knocked out and sent rolling away inside its shell. To the villagers of Mossui Town, it looked like the trio had fallen protecting the village from the enraged ogre, nicknaming them the Loyal Three and giving them a proper burial while Ogerpon retreated to Oni Mountain.

Fezandipiti, together with Okidogi and Munkidori, are known as the Loyal Three, the heroes of Kitakami. The three are beloved by the people of Kitakami as heroes that once protected the land from the "evil ogre",^[2] and stone statues bearing their likenesses were made by the people as an expression of their gratitude right where the three had been buried.^[3] According to locals, worshiping Fezandipiti leads to both good luck and serendipitous things happening. Even with its greedy and arrogant personality, Fezandipiti has great relationships with its teammates, talking to each other in private and acting together to defeat their opponents. By consuming the Kitakami Mochis, Fezandipiti can become a Titanic Pokémon.

Fezandipiti (right) in The Teal Mask

• Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: The Teal Mask: Fezandipiti is a main character and a boss in the DLC. In the past, Fezandipiti was a Pokémon with short, dull feathers that after meeting Pecharunt, was tamed by its Binding Mochi and transformed by its toxic chain to help it find a brilliant set of masks rumored to exist in the land of Kitakami for its caretakers, granting it beautiful looks and a lovely voice as a result. Fezandipiti became one of Pecharunt's retainers alogside Okidogi and Munkidori and all travelled together to Kitakami.
  • The four found out the masks were owned by an ogre named Ogerpon and its human partner, Munkidori tracked down their home and both Fezandipiti and Okidogi managed to steal three of the masks, while the human managed to protect the teal one, being left heavily injured as a result. They returned to Pecharunt with the masks, but after Ogerpon found out what happened, it attacked and slayed the three retainers, however, leaving Pecharunt only unconscious.
  • Fezandipiti along with Okidogi and Munkidori were buried in a monument for them at the Loyalty Plaza, as they were considered heroes by the people of Mossui Town supposing they perished defending the village from Ogerpon's rage, naming them as the Loyal Three and worshipping them for many generations.
  • In The Teal Mask, Fezandipiti, Okidogi and Munkidori are seemingly accidently ressurected by Kieran and quickly retrieved the three masks they've stolen in the past and went to take revenge on Ogerpon for slaying them, but they're scared off by the player, Carmine and Kieran, deciding to split up across Kitakami, Fezandipiti specifically, travelled to Oni Mountain with the Hearthflame Mask. Eventually the player and Carmine find it as The Titanic Fezandipiti, have grown larger thanks to the Kitakami Mochi served to the three at Kitakami Hall, but is still defeated and flees, leaving the mask behind as the team retrieves one of them.
  • After finishing the story, the player can find Fezandipiti where it was last fought at, battle it and catch it.
  • In Mochi Mayhem, if any of the Loyal Three are used during the battle against Pecharunt, it'll become shocked and angered that its retainers serve the player instead of itself now.

Trivia

Origin

Fezandipiti may be based on the copper pheasant (山鳥 yamadori in Japanese), a pheasant endemic to Japan and chosen as the prefectural bird of Akita Prefecture. Both the male and the female of the copper pheasant have a similar brown color, but the male has a brighter hue with coppery luster.

Fezandipiti's plumage resembles a kimono, and the chain on its waist resembles an obi belt, such as a knotted maruobi. Its crest also resembles a collection of kanzashi, while the white face is reminiscent of oshiroi. These things, its beautiful looks, and its lovely voice could also point to geisha—female Japanese performance artists—as a possible inspiration. Given that Fezandipiti is male-only, its design may also hint at male kabuki performers who assumed the role of female characters (particularly oiran) on stage and also used oshiroi. Its crest and plumage also bears resemblance to the hoatzin, whose consumption of toxic plants and emission of malodor may in turn inspired its Poison-type.

Fezandipiti, together with Okidogi, Munkidori, 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). The purple chain could be based on a shimenawa.

Name origin

Fezandipiti may be a combination of pheasant and serendipity (an unexpected but auspicious happening).

Kichikigisu may be a combination of 吉 kichi (fortune) and 雉子 kigisu (archaic reading of pheasant).
