Why does it look like a chicken
Because that's what it is, now that I've seen the Japanese name

Or you know because its Hawaii
And thats Hawaiian slang
But holy shit yeah Keko is a chicken head

Somehow I doubt they'll be cocks. But I wouldn't be surprised if they call kept one part of Tapu Koko's name. Would explain why it has a two part name, besides to make it sound foreign and island-y. Still surprised that was actually its name. I would have bet cash it was just a nickname or something.
I want to capture ChickenAlolaSeleneMoonLuna-chan's favourite Pokémon and gift it to her!

Chicken skin isn't hawaiian slang. At least not exclusively. It's not like the phrase is something people say and go "oh he's from hawaii"

>MC has a cock's comb hat

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRE

>>26920229
The name limit is Japanese is six characters idiot.
It's the head of a Totem Pole. The other Island Legendaries will surely be the other parts.

Hey I dont think they would name a pokemon this guys
>>26920304
Read the names, idiot.
Koko = Hawaaian for the sound of chickens cackling
Kokekokko = Japanese for c***-a-doodle-doo
Tapu/Kapu = Hawaiian for holy/sacred
Its name is literally HolyCockRooster
>>26920353
HOLY COCK
>>26920038
It's the head of a totem
>>26920353
Also Tapu sounds like "top" and Kapu could be referring to cap or any of the other "head" words that start with cap/cab in various Latin-based languages (cabeza, decapitate, cabbage, caboche). That seems to fit given its design is meant to look like a head.
>>26920344
Why would I?
They wouldn't work regardless of what they mean.
>>26920353
>c***
>>26920425
Because then you would have avoided getting riled up since you would've seen it was just a joke.
>>26920229
I think each one will be a differnt animal and all keep the mask shell theme.

There will be three deities, and the fourth one will be Zygarde

>Holy Cock
