Deerling (Japanese: シキジカ, HepburnShikijika) (DEER-ling[1]) is a Normal/Grass-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V. It changes appearance in accordance to the seasons currently present in the games.

Biology[]

Physiology[]

Deerling is a quadrupedal mammalian Pokémon that resembles a deer fawn. Its pelt changes color during the four seasons, matching the color of foliage. It varies from a flowery pink (in spring), a lush green (in summer), a brilliant orange (in autumn), and a dull brown (in winter). In the spring it matches the pink flowers, in the summer it matches the green leaves, in fall it matches the orange leaves littering the ground, and in winter it matches the bare brown branches and dead leaves of trees. Deerling has a yellow flower-like feature atop its head that does not change with the seasons. It has large long deer-like ears with yellow insides, brown eyes and a pointed snout with a round shiny black nose. Its face and underside are always cream-colored.

Behavior[]

Deerling are found primarily in montane forests, though they are known to venture into lowland areas from time to time as well. They are herbivorous Pokémon that graze on low-growing vegetation. They are also very timid, hiding in tall grass at the slightest indication of danger. They are hibernators, as shown in Pokémon Pocket Comics: Black & White (Originally ポケモンBW 爆笑4コマまんが全集; Pokémon Black & White Laughter 4Koma Comic Compilation). Despite their innocent and adorable appearance, Deerling are considered pests by farmers, as they tend to eat all of their plant shoots. Lycanroc is a natural enemy of Deerling; farmers often use them to guard their fields.

Evolution[]

Deerling evolves into Sawsbuck at level 34.

Trivia[]

  • It was revealed in a video on July 30, 2010, along with the Pokémon Musical, Watchog, and Swanna. It was officially revealed on the September issue of CoroCoro on August 8, 2010.
  • Out of all the dual Normal type Pokémon, Deerling has the most weaknesses. This is shared with its evolution, Sawsbuck.
  • Deerling and Sawsbuck are the only Pokémon that have seasonal forms.
  • Since the season system works only in Generation V, Deerling obtained in later games are always in their Spring form. The only way to acquire other forms of Deerling is to transport them from Generation V games via Poké Transporter.

Origin[]

Deerling is based on a fawn (a young deer).

Etymology[]

Deerling comes from deer, sapling, and yearling (a term used for young mammals and also the four seasons).

Its Japanese name, Shikijika, comes from 四季 (shiki, four seasons) and 鹿 (shika, deer)
