HoothootSkyridge #65 Pokémon Card

Hoothoot is a Dual-type Normal/Flying Pokémon introduced in Generation II, making its debut in the Johto region. Known as the "Owl Pokémon," Hoothoot is easily recognizable by its single, prominent leg and its ability to precisely keep time. According to Pokédex entries, Hoothoot stands on one leg, switching to the other so quickly that it appears to be standing on both. This unique trait is said to be how it accurately tells the time. Hoothoot typically lives in forests and woodlands, often seen perched on tree branches. Its diet primarily consists of small insects and berries. Hoothoot evolves into Noctowl starting at level 20. In the anime, Ash caught a Hoothoot early in his Johto journey, showcasing its helpfulness and unique abilities, particularly its excellent sense of direction and time. Its Normal/Flying typing gives it resistances to Grass and Bug types, while being weak to Electric, Ice, and Rock types. Hoothoot's design is simple yet charming, making it a beloved early-game Pokémon for many trainers. Its distinct hooting call is also a memorable characteristic.
