Fezandipiti (Japanese: キチキギス Kichikigisu) is a dual-type Poison/Fairy Legendary Pokémon introduced in Generation IX, with The Teal Mask.
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.
It is associated with Ogerpon. Along with Okidogi and Munkidori, it is a member of the Loyal Three.
Biology
Fezandipiti is an avian Pokémon with a small head, a short beak with a magenta tip, and a long neck and legs. Its plumage is primarily black, with white on its head and neck, and bronze accents on its face, collar, and wing tips. It stands atop a pair of long slender bronze-colored legs having three-toed feet with sharp claws, and its tail consists of a long train of bronze-colored feathers ending in forked tips that gently curl outwards. A single white stripe accents each of its legs and tail. A crest of black feathers resembling a cap sits atop Fezandipiti's head, with golden feathers sticking out resembling a royal crown. A pair of magenta plumes also sits just above each of Fezandipiti's eyes like eyebrows and extend like long streamers with forked ends. Hanging from Fezandipiti's chest is a pair of magenta chains, protruding from a shawl-like feature that wraps its body. Despite its feminine appearance, it is a male-only species with no female counterpart.
In Kitakami myths, it is said that Fezandipiti was once a Pokémon with short, dull feathers, but a wish to be beautiful, somehow led it to the Toxic Chain around its body, Fezandipiti transformed, enhancing its capabilities and giving it beautiful looks and a lovely voice. It possesses powerful pheromones, capable of captivating both humans and Pokémon with a beat of its glossy wings to scatter them through the air. It traveled from a distant land with Okidogi and Munkidori to steal Ogerpon's four masks and claim them for themselves. The trio sneaked into Ogerpon's cave and managed to steal three of them while Ogerpon's friend managed to protect one of them. After finding out, Ogerpon discovered what had happened and beat the trio up, with Fezandipiti losing their life in the fight along with their partners. In the villagers' eyes though, it looked like the trio had fallen protecting the village from the enraged ogre, nicknaming them the Loyal Three and giving them a proper burial while Ogerpon retreated to Oni Mountain.
Fezandipiti, together with Okidogi and Munkidori, are known as the Loyal Three, the heroes of Kitakami. The three are beloved by the people of Kitakami as heroes that once protected the land from the "evil ogre",[1] and stone statues bearing their likenesses were made by the people as an expression of their gratitude right where the three had been buried.[2] According to locals, worshipping Fezandipiti leads to both good luck and serendipitous things happening. By consuming the Kitakami Mochis, Fezandipiti can become a Titan Pokémon.

Trivia
Origin
Fezandipiti may be based on the copper pheasant (山鳥 yamadori in Japanese), a pheasant endemic to Japan and chosen as the prefectural bird of Akita. Both the male and the female of the copper pheasant have a similar brown color, but the male has a brighter hue with coppery luster. Its crest and plumage also bears resemblance to the hoatzin, whose consumption of toxic plants and emission of malodor may in turn inspired its Poison-type.
Fezandipiti, together with Okidogi, Munkidori, and Ogerpon, may reference the Japanese folktale of Momotarō. The tale relates the titular Momotarō, a boy born from inside a peach, who traveled alongside a talking dog, monkey, and pheasant to fight a band of oni (a Japanese folkloric creature commonly equated to ogres in translations). The purple chain on its waist resembles an obi belt, such as a knotted maruobi. Its crest also resembles a collection of kanzashi. Both ornaments were traditionally worn by women in the Edo period. Given that Fezandipiti is male-only, this together with the white underside on its face and chest may also hint at male Kabuki performers who assume the role of female characters (particularly Oiran) on stage.
Name origin
Fezandipiti may be a combination of pheasant and serendipity (an unexpected but auspicious happening).
Kichikigisu may be a combination of 吉 kichi (fortune) and 雉子 kigisu (archaic reading of pheasant).
