Babycino

**Babycino** is a cappuccino cup Shopkin.

## Description

### Personality

Babycino is the anomaly to the Flexers' intellectual nature. While it is true that she still is pretty smart, she is also very scatterbrained thanks to her abilities not translating to the inside of her head and has a tendency to space out at times probably due to bashing her head a lot. She is the most immature of her tribe, preferring to play rather than show off her smarts.

### Physical Appearance

Babycino is a blue cup of cappuccino. She has white and pink marshmallows inside of her.

## Abilities

### Origin

Her head is like a mallet, which she can use for a strong headbutt. Her eyes also have the ability to inflate when aggressive.

### Calling All Kindi Kids

* **Hammer Time:** Hammer the ground, damaging and stunning all enemies in the area.
* **Jokester:** Tell a joke so bad it stuns every enemy who hears it.
* **Hyper Headbutt:** Do heavy damage to multiple enemies by slamming your head into them.
