Pineco

Pineco's habits

Pineco waits motionless on forest branches for flying insects to pass, and in Alola it favors Cutiefly. Shake its tree while it feeds and it drops and explodes, a habit that, with its shape, suggests a grenade; its design is likely based on a bagworm case.

Pineco on cards

Pineco's first card appeared in the 2001 Neo Discovery set as a Common illustrated by Tomokazu Komiya. Undaunted later gave it two separate Common printings by Kagemaru Himeno and Kyoko Umemoto. Paldean Fates added a Shiny Rare Pineco illustrated by Scav, and Destined Rivals continued its run with a Common by YASHIRO Nanaco.
