Maschiff (Japanese:オラチフOrachifu) is aDark-typePokémon introduced inGeneration IX.

Itevolves intoMabosstiff starting atlevel 30.

Biology

Maschiff is a brown, quadrupedal, canine Pokémon, with a dark gray snout and underside. It has a layer of thick fat under its skin that protects it from attacks. Its paws have four toes each. It has yellow tufts of fur on its head and back; the head fur makes the appearance of a crest. It also has a long, yellow, brushy tail. Its head has droopy triangular ears with yellow insides, and black beady eyes below two protuberances on its forehead that seemingly give it a constant anxious expression. Its snout contains a rounded triangular orange nose and a large mouth, with strong jaws and sharp fangs that can crush boulders.

Maschiff always tilts its head and makes a big scowl to appear threatening, although the display is highly ineffective even towards children. The Maschiff wears a grumpy expression as if to be taken seriously. Packs of Maschiff are said to be very close-knit.

Trivia

Origin

Maschiff seems to be based on apuppy of themastiff breed of dogs, and more specifically theSpanish Mastiff. The yellow fur on its back brings to mind youth or childhood, in contrast to the grey fur on its evolved form's back which brings to mind old age. The shape of the fur on its head resembles amohawk hairstyle, commonly associated with punk archetypes.

Name origin

Maschiff may be a combination ofmastiff andmischief.

Orachifu may be a combination of オラつくoratsuku (slang word to describe a rude or irreverent person) and マスチフmasuchifu (mastiff).
