Scream Tail is a pink Pokémon with a spherical body. It has pointed ears with black insides and small tufts of hair beneath them, tiny fangs, and large, yellow eyes with markings that resemble some form of makeup. On top of its head is a very long curled tuft of fur that extends down its back and is a darker shade of pink on the end, resembling a tail. It also has an actual tail on its backside.  


According to a paranormal magazine, it resembles a Jigglypuff from one billion years ago. Scream Tail is said to be ferociously aggressive to the point it attacks anyone who comes near. It is named after a creature with distinct tail and loud screaming voice.
Scream Tail is capable of levitating itself, as opposed to walking. In an article from an October issue of {{DL|Magazines in the Pokémon world|Occulture}} magazine, Scream Tail is described as a creature lurking somewhere in a [[Paldea]]n forest, having the appearance of a {{p|Jigglypuff}} but with a ferocious aggression that leads it to attack anyone who comes near. Its primitive appearance and savage nature have prompted rumors that it could be a Jigglypuff from 1,000,000,000 years ago. Scream Tail is named after a creature in the [[Scarlet Book]] that is described as having a distinctive tail and scream.


==In the anime==
According to [[Professor Sada|AI Sada]], Scream Tail is an ancient Pokémon related to Jigglypuff. However, according to a Sada brought to the [[Crystal Pool]] by {{p|Terapagos}}, Scream Tail is a counterpart of Jigglypuff from another timeline. Its true origin is unknown. Scream Tail were brought to the depths of [[Area Zero]] by a [[time machine]] built by Professor Sada ten years ago.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Currently, out of all [[Paradox Pokémon]], Scream Tail has the largest increase in base stat total from its apparent {{p|Jigglypuff|relative}}, with an increase of 300 points.
* Scream Tail is the only [[Paradox Pokémon]] whose apparent {{p|Jigglypuff|relative}} was never considered a fully evolved Pokémon.
* According to Scream Tail's [[Pokédex]] entry in Pokémon Scarlet, its existence predates the first multicellular life by around 400 million years.<ref>https://astrobiology.nasa.gov/news/how-did-multicellular-life-evolve/</ref>
** It has the largest increase in base stat total from its apparent relative, with an increase of 300 points.
** It has the largest disparity in size with its apparent relative, being 2.4 times taller.
* Scream Tail's official artwork from {{g|Scarlet and Violet}} resembles Jigglypuff's official artwork from {{g|FireRed and LeafGreen}}.
* The magazine {{DL|Magazines in the Pokémon world|Occulture}} mentions rumors that hypothesize Scream Tail as a Jigglypuff from one billion years ago. This is longer than real-world multicellular life is thought to have existed on Earth, as the first of them could only have appeared around 600 million years ago.<ref>https://astrobiology.nasa.gov/news/how-did-multicellular-life-evolve/</ref>
 
===Origin===
===Origin===
Scream Tail is based on {{p|Jigglypuff}}. Its hostile nature, screeching voice, and sharp teeth could stem from {{wp|bats}} or {{wp|vampire}}s. Its appearance also resembles the stereotypical depiction of a cave man. The vampire motif could be reinforced as a supernatural connection with Scream Tail's golden eyes as opposed to Jigglypuff's bright blue eyes. Given the Paradox Pokémon's association with sensational paranormal tabloids, Scream Tail may also draw inspiration from {{wp|Bat Boy (character)|Bat Boy}}.

On top of its head is a very long curled tuft of fur that extends down its back and is a darker shade of pink on the end, resembling a tail. It also has an actual tail on its backside.

Scream Tail is capable of levitating itself, as opposed to walking. In an article from an October issue of Occulture magazine, Scream Tail is described as a creature lurking somewhere in a Paldean forest, having the appearance of a Jigglypuff but with a ferocious aggression that leads it to attack anyone who comes near. Its primitive appearance and savage nature have prompted rumors that it could be a Jigglypuff from 1,000,000,000 years ago. Scream Tail is named after a creature in the Scarlet Book that is described as having a distinctive tail and scream.

According to AI Sada, Scream Tail is an ancient Pokémon related to Jigglypuff.

Trivia

  • Scream Tail is the only Paradox Pokémon whose apparent relative was never considered a fully evolved Pokémon.
    • It has the largest increase in base stat total from its apparent relative, with an increase of 300 points.
    • It has the largest disparity in size with its apparent relative, being 2.4 times taller.
  • Scream Tail's official artwork from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet resembles Jigglypuff's official artwork from Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen.
  • The magazine Occulture mentions rumors that hypothesize Scream Tail as a Jigglypuff from one billion years ago. This is longer than real-world multicellular life is thought to have existed on Earth, as the first of them could only have appeared around 600 million years ago.[1]

Origin

Scream Tail is based on Jigglypuff. Its hostile nature, screeching voice, and sharp teeth could stem from bats or vampires. Its appearance also resembles the stereotypical depiction of a cave man. The vampire motif could be reinforced as a supernatural connection with Scream Tail's golden eyes as opposed to Jigglypuff's bright blue eyes. Given the Paradox Pokémon's association with sensational paranormal tabloids, Scream Tail may also draw inspiration from Bat Boy.

Name origin

Scream Tail is literally scream tail.

Sakebushippo can be taken literally as 叫ぶ尻尾 sakebu shippo (screaming tail).
