Cinccino (Japanese: チラチーノ Chillaccino) is a Normal-type Pokémon.

It evolves from Minccino when exposed to a Shiny Stone.

Biology

Physiology

Cinccino is a furry, gray-colored chinchilla-like Pokémon, looking like Minccino except for the pure gray color and long white fur. Like Minccino, it still retains its large ears, located to the sides of its head, with red insides partly covered by the aforementioned tufts of fur. Its eyes are large and brown, with a small, rounded nose. Its limbs are somewhat rounded and small, and its tail is long, fluffy and incredibly white in color. It also has two large long fluffs on its head that wrap around its back. Its long fur was what Minccino's tuft of fur below its neck has become long fur that it uses as a scarf.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Trivia

• Linoone and Cinccino are the shortest Pokémon that evolved once at 1'8" (0.5m). They are also tied for second shortest fully-evolved Pokémon, being 0'4" (0.1m) taller than Bellossom.
• Due to an error, Cinccino is unable to learn Thief via TM in Pokémon Black and White, while its pre-evolution Minccino does. This issue was later fixed in Black 2 and White 2.

Origin

Cinccino is based on a chinchilla. Its white "hair" is very similar in appearance to high class women's hairstyles in the early 1600s. The white fur draped around its neck resembles shawls, scarfs and boas, possibly a reference to how chinchillas are controversially hunted for their fur.

Name origin

Cinccino can may be a combination of cincinnus, meaning curled lock of hair in Latin due to Cinccino's white fur and cino, meaning small in Romani.

Chillaccino may be a combination of chinchilla and either chino cloth or チーノ "Chīno", a Japanese word of the Romani word cino, meaning small.
