Chingling concept art

Concept artwork of Chingling

Chingling is a baby Pokémon, whose body resembles that of a rattle, has short limbs, and a small tassel tied to the head that it uses to grab hold of something or to manipulate things. Its opening represents its mouth and cheeks, and inside it a red clapper that simulates the tongue, which causes sound when it is shaken.

Behavior[]

If they are well trained, they can sing beautiful melodies. One has a particular way of hugging that is by grabbing the body of the person or Pokémon with its two extremities. They are very cuddly and always happy.

The sound can be melodious and pleasing when they are happy, but ear-splittingly sharp if they feel threatened or distressed.

Natural abilities[]

Chingling communicate through different volumes and pitches of their cries. The sound of many Chingling crying at once in a large squabble is said to be one of the most discordant sounds known to man.

Evolution[]

Chingling evolves into Chimecho at any level, but only while it is being leveled up at night with high Friendship.
