Concept art of Decidueye forPokémon Sun and Moon
Decidueye pulling its hood closed and aiming an arrow quill

Decidueye is a tall, avianPokémon that resembles an owl. The upper portion of its face is dark green with a thin, orange mask-like marking encircling its eyes. Its eyes are reddish-orange and it has a hooked dark green beak. The feathers covering its wings and back are brown, while the rest of its body is primarily white. The three feathers at the tip of each wing are structured similar to fingers and have lighter tips. The backs of its wings and torso are dotted with many white spots, there are six on each wing. The inside of each wing has a line of upside-down, reddish-orange triangles across the top. It has long legs, feet with two toes facing forward and two backward, and short dark green talons. Its tail consists of three long, green leaves. A leafy hood covers its head and shoulders, and partially covers its face. The hood is smoothly draped across the shoulders and back, but has uneven edges. Around the head, the hood forms many pointed projections that extend over its face. A single white feather with a reddish-orange base extends from the top of its hood. In the center of its chest is a reddish-orange X shape formed by dead leaves. Extending from its hood are two vines that, when pulled, close the hood further over Decidueye's face and improves its focus. The vines can also be used as bowstrings.

Decidueye is cool and cautious by nature, but it begins to panic if surprised. It can hide from opponents by masking its presence, allowing it to attack unaware foes.[1] It takes only a tenth of a second for it to pluck, aim, and fire an arrow quill from its wings. It is not only quick but also accurate, capable of striking targets over half a mile away.

Alolan Decidueye is theonly known Pokémon capable of learning themoveSpirit Shackle. It is also the only known Pokémon capable of using theZ-MoveSinister Arrow Raid. Additionally, Alolan Decidueye and its pre-evolved forms are theonly known Pokémon that can have theAbilityLong Reach.

Forms

Decidueye has aregional form:Hisuian Decidueye.

Compared toAlolan Decidueye, Hisuian Decidueye has a smaller wing area and thicker legs. The plumes around its ankles are longer, its feet are black with white talons, and its tail feathers are red. Its head and neck covering are also red, with orange and white accents, and together they resemble anayaigasa.[2] Its wings appear to have more layers, and the rachises of its feathers are capable of storing air, allowing it to withstand the extreme cold of theHisuiregion.

Hisuian Decidueye is said to have a stalwart, fierce personality, although it will tolerate those who do not act hostile towards it. It has a nomadic lifestyle, wandering the Hisui region in search of food. Unlike its Alolan counterpart, it prefers to fight at close range in order to overwhelm enemies. Its legs can deliver powerful kicks that can knock down trees and destroy boulders. Hisuian Decidueye's signature strategy is to fly towards its foes to unleash kicks, then use its hidden arrow quills in order to deliver multiple attacks in a row.[3]

Hisuian Decidueye is the only known Pokémon capable of learning the moveTriple Arrows.

Trivia

  • Official confidential art featuring Decidueye,Incineroar,Primarina, andMallow was leaked on the Internet on June 4, 2016. This leak happened 145 days before these Pokémon were officially revealed on October 27, 2016.[4] From the leaked material it is known that Decidueye's code name was "フクロウ 3", or "Owl 3" during development.
  • Decidueye was originally considered forSuper Smash Bros. Ultimate, but directorMasahiro Sakurai decided to go withIncineroar instead.[5]
  • Decidueye is the only fullyevolved form of a first partner Pokémon that has its secondary type changed upon Evolution, with bothAlolan andHisuian Decidueye having theFlying-type changed toGhost andFighting, respectively.
  • Decidueye's evolutionary line is the only one belonging to a first partner Pokémon where the pre-evolved forms have a type advantage against the fully evolved forms, for both Alolan and Hisuian Decidueye.
  • Decidueye and its pre-evolved forms have several distinctions:
    • They are the onlyGrass-type Pokémon in theFlying Egg Group.
    • They are the only Pokémon introduced inGeneration VII to be in the Hisuian Pokédex.
    • They are the only Grass-type first partner Pokémon family whosePokédex color is not green. Instead, their Pokédex color is brown.
  • Decidueye is the only Pokémon introduced afterGeneration VI to have aregional form.
    • This makes Decidueye the only Pokémon with a regional form whose original and regional forms have different Evolution levels.
    • Of all Pokémon that have received aregional form, Decidueye's regional form was introduced in the shortest time after the species's introduction, being introduced just onegeneration later.
  • InPokémon Legends: Arceus's internal code, Hisuian Decidueye's Hidden Ability isLong Reach instead ofScrappy.
  • InGeneration IX, prior to the Version 2.0.1 update ofPokémon Scarlet and Violet, Hisuian Decidueye and its pre-Evolution were unable to learnConfuse Ray,Night Shade, andLight Screen viaTM, while Rowlet could.

Origin

Decidueye is based on anowl.[4] It is most similar to thepueo owl in particular, which is a common physical form of theaumakua, ancestral spirits in Hawaiian culture. This may account for its Ghost typing. Additionally, it has some traits similar to thecommon barn owl – which in some territories is also known as the "ghost owl" – and the extinctstilt-owl. In general, an association between the supernatural and owls was once avery common motif, as they were seen as both bearers of death and disturbed spirits throughout history. Decidueye also shares elements with anarcher and common depictions of the English folk heroRobin Hood.

Hisuian Decidueye's earthy coloring and comparatively shorter wings seem to draw inspiration from the color change deciduous tree leaves experience during autumn, signifying its growth. Its hat-like crown of feathers resembles akasa, or traditional Japanese brimmed hats, perhaps theayaigasa specifically worn by samurai archers for hunting or ceremonial purposes.[2] Additionally, the motif of autumn leaves is commonly associated withRōnin, samurai members who have fallen from grace and usually have been ousted. This is also suggested by its wandering lifestyle. It may also be inspired byCikap-kamuy, theAinu god of owls and the land; and hence inspired byBlakiston's fish owl. It also shares similarities with primarily ground-dwellingburrowing owls andsecretarybirds. Hisuian Decidueye'sShiny coloration is similar to Alolan Decidueye's normal coloration.

Name origin

Decidueye may be a combination ofdeciduous,duel, anddeadeye orbullseye.

Junaiper may be a combination of 樹ju (tree),juniper, andsniper.
