Exeggcute (タマタマ Tamatama in Japanese, Owei in German and Noeunoeuf in French) is a fictional character of the Pokémon franchise.

"Exeggcute" is derived from the words "egg" and "execute".

Appearance

Exeggcute resembles a cluster of six pink-shelled eggs, each bearing a distinct expression. Most of the eggs are cracked, some to the point of exposing a hard yellow yolk-like interior.

Biology

Although an Exeggcute is considered a single Pokémon, each one is actually comprised of six different entities collectively comprising the Exeggcute. These entities are egg-shaped, although they are actually more related to plant seeds than eggs. They attract each other in groups of six using telepathic signals only they can receive and form a very strong bond of energy. Thanks to this bond the Exeggcute remain in their balanced formation and can spin around. Even if one is temporarily separated, it will quickly be rejoined with its swarm.

The shell of the creatures forming the Exeggcute is particularly durable. Even if it cracks, the mysterious content will not spill. However, if cracks increasingly appear on its surface, it is said to be close to evolution.

In the video games

In Pokémon Red, Blue, Yellow, FireRed and LeafGreen, Exeggcute is found in the Safari Zone. In the last two games it is additionally found in the Berry Forest. In Pokémon Gold, Silver and Crystal, Exeggcute can be founding by shaking trees using Headbutt.

Exeggcute has pretty good statistics and many moves that induce status ailments and other annoyances, which makes it useful in battle. However, Exeggcute's evolved form Exeggutor is much more preferred due to its increased stats.

In the animé

The Exeggcute species was featured in episode #43 (March of the Exeggutor Squad), where it belonged to a carnival magician named Melvin. Exeggcute inadvertently hypnotised Ash to obey Melvin's every command. Melvin has Ash capture a lot of Exeggutor for him, but when they get out of line his Exeggcute evolves into an Exeggutor and forces every Exeggutor to hypnotize each other, sending them on a rampage.
