Okidogi

Okidogi is a Legendary Pokémon species hailing from the Kitakami region. It is a member of the Loyal Three and associated with Ogerpon.

## **Appearance**

Okidogi is a large, bulky, bipedal canine Pokémon with black fur. It has yellow eyes with small white pupils and a long magenta Toxic Chain around its neck that resembles a leash. The chain's base almost completely encircles its neck, similar to a collar. Its muzzle, face, chest, hands, back, waist, thighs, and feet are green. It has a magenta nose, paw pads, ear insides, and crescent markings on its face over its eyes. It has sharp teeth, a black outline around its mouth, and a long, fluffy, black tail.

## **Origin**

According to Kitakami myth, Okidogi was once a smaller and weaker Pokémon whose desire for strength led it to the Mythical Pokémon Pecharunt. The Subjugation Pokémon wrapped a Toxic Chain around Okidogi's neck, granting it immense strength, but chaining Okidogi to its will in the process. The Chain gave Okidogi a powerful physique and heavily stimulated muscles, fulfilling its desire.

Okidogi, along with Munkidori, Fezandipiti, and Pecharunt traveled to Kitakami, having heard of Ogerpon's four masks and wishing to steal them. The quartet snuck into the home of Ogerpon and her friend, where they managed to steal three of the four masks while Ogerpon's friend presumably died protecting the last one. When Ogerpon found out what had happened in her absence, she flew into a rage and viciously attacked the quartet in the village, frightening the residents. Okidogi and its teammates were killed in the ensuing fight, but Pecharunt, although mortally wounded, managed to escape. However, the villagers saw the fallen trio as heroes protecting the village from the evil ogre and honored them, dubbing them the Loyal Three. They were given a proper burial, a shrine, and statues made in their likenesses set up right where they'd been buried; the grave would later be known as Loyalty Plaza. Worshipping Okidogi will grant kindness and peace between two feuding parties, according to the locals.

Okidogi and its teammates were later resurrected hundreds of years later, in the present day.

## **Evolution**

Okidogi does not evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

## **Behavior**

Okidogi is a ruffian with a short temper. It is also a greedy, vicious thief that will steal anything it wants and beats up those that try to get in its way. Okidogi has good relationships with its teammates and undying loyalty to its leader, Pecharunt. It enjoys ganging up on others alongside its teammates and harassing them, but when the victim's allies defeat them in battle, it will flee with its tail between its legs, showing its cowardly side. It is also quite arrogant thanks to its bulging muscles and Toxic Chain.
