Delibird (Japanese: デリバード, Hepburn: Deribādo) (DELL-ee-bird) is an Ice/Flying Pokémon introduced in Generation II.

Biology

Physiology

Delibird is a red, penguin-like Pokémon with a white, hollow tail. Its face and chest are covered in white feathers with two, three-pointed crests above its eyes. Black markings surround its circular eyes, and it has a light yellow beak and feet. There is a single white spot on its stomach. Its feet have two digits each.

Behavior

Delibird is omnivorous. It carries food bundled up in its tail. It normally gives stored food to its chicks, but has been known to share its food with humans stranded on icy mountains. In a flock, the Delibird with the largest tail is its leader. Delibird tends to live in mountainous regions, making its nests over sharp cliffs; one notable area of the world is around Mt. Everest.Male and female Delibird mate for life. While females stay with their young to keep watch, males spend the day looking for food, which they roll up and store within their sack-like tails to bring home.Delibird are also curious Pokémon; besides food, they also collect pretty, strange, and sometimes even dangerous objects within their tails.Their generous reputations have made them symbols of various holidays centered around gift-giving.When threatened, Delibird defend themselves by using Present, chucking the contents of their tails at attackers. Projectiles include food, rocks, and even explosives—whatever Delibird have found on their travels.

Natural Abilities

Delibird's signature move, Present, allows it to carry special items in its tail that may cause damage or heal its opponent.

Evolution

Delibird does not evolve.

Appearances

Anime

• Team Rocket's Delibird
• Santa's Delibird

Trivia

• Both of Delibird's abilities Vital Spirit and Insomnia further its relation to Saint Nicholas, as it also has to deliver toys to all the children of the world in a single night.
  • Both of these abilities have the same effect (prevents the sleep condition).
• Delibird is one of five Pokémon owned by Santa Claus, the other four are Jynx (multiple), Lapras, Stantler and Rapidash.
• Delibird is the only Pokémon that can learn Icy Wind by breeding and receive STAB for it.
• Delibird makes an appearance in PokéPark 2: Wonders Beyond, where it grants random items after retrieving its lost snowball.
• In Generation VII, Delibird was given the move Drill Peck, making it so Delibird could no longer only learn one move by leveling up.

Origin

Delibird appears to be based on penguins or puffins. It also heavily takes inspiration from Santa Claus due to its red and white coloration, living in cold areas, carrying a sack of gifts, and its feathers appearing to form a beard.

Etymology

Delibird is a mixture of the words delivery and bird.
