Linoone

Linoone, known as Massuguma in Japanese, is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III of the Pokémon franchise. It evolves from Zigzagoon and is characterized by its slender body with brown stripes, sharp claws, and blue eyes. Linoone is renowned for its incredible straight-line speed, reaching up to 60 miles per hour, but it struggles with turns. This behavior often leads it to miss prey or face challenges on curved roads. It has a peculiar habit of collecting round objects and storing them in its cheek pouches. In the Galar region, a regional variant of Linoone exists with a dual Dark/Normal type and a unique evolution into Obstagoon. Linoone appears in various Pokémon games, the anime, and trading cards, making it a well-recognized figure in the Pokémon world.
