Classified as both a Fairy and Steel-type Pokémon, Tinkaton appears as a short pink creature with long light pink hair and a massive makeshift hammer it builds from scrap metal. Highly intelligent and daring, it steals items to bring back to its lair while using their hammer to launch projectiles, usually rocks, at their natural prey, the Flying and Steel-type Pokémon, Corviknight. As a result of this behavior, Corviknight is unable to provide taxi service for humans within the Paldea region where Tinkaton is native.
