Pikipek

Pikipek is a Normal/Flying type Pokémon introduced in Generation 7.

Pikipek can strike 16 times a second with its beak. These strikes are powerful enough to not only drill through hard wood but even shatter stone. Pikipek will attack distant opponents by zipping seeds at them. These shots have enough strength to embed the seeds in tree trunks.

Moon This Pokémon feeds on berries, whose leftover seeds become the ammunition for the attacks it fires off from its mouth.
Ultra Sun It pecks at trees with its hard beak. You can get some idea of its mood or condition from the rhythm of its pecking.
