It is the pre-evolution of Mightyena and is known for its distinctive barking and pack-hunting behavior. In the wild, Poochyena are often found in forests and grasslands, typically in groups. They are carnivorous and primarily scavenge for food, though they are capable hunters when necessary, using their sharp fangs and coordinated attacks. Their behavior is often characterized by their persistence and their loyalty to their pack leader. In the Pokémon games, Poochyena is one of the first Pokémon players encounter in the Hoenn region, often appearing as a common early-game wild Pokémon.

They symbolize the wilder, more untamed aspects of nature within the Pokémon world, often seen as a common predator. Culturally, Poochyena represents the initial challenges and common encounters trainers face, embodying the spirit of early adventure and the natural ecosystem of the Pokémon world. Its evolution into Mightyena signifies growth and increased power, making it a memorable part of many trainers' journeys.
