Pecharunt (Japanese: モモワロウ Momowarou), known by the Kitakami people as the Never-Rotting Peach[1] is a Pokémon and major character in the Mochi Mayhem epilogue for the Pokémon Scarlet and Violet expansion, The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero.

History

A long time ago in a faraway unnamed region, an old couple cared for Pecharunt, as they had no children of their own, showering the small, timid Pokémon with love. Hoping to get even more of their affection, Pecharunt fed them Binding Mochi, created using the poison stored in its shell, placing them under its control. The Mochi drew out their greed, and the old couple soon began to make constant requests of Pecharunt, which it eagerly followed in hopes of receiving more love. One day, it used its Binding Mochi and Toxic Chain to tame and transform a small and weak Pokémon, Okidogi, into a big, strong one, turning it into its retainer. Pecharunt had Okidogi deliver various gifts to the couple, including several boxes of Mythical Pecha Berries, only making their love for it grow.[2]

Eventually the old couple requested that Pecharunt acquire a brilliant set of masks, rumored to exist in the land of Kitakami. Having grown tired of the same old requests, Pecharunt was excited to be given a novel task, and hurriedly set off to Kitakami with Okidogi. During their travels, the two met a clumsy and dim-witted Pokémon, Munkidori, and one that had short, dull feathers, Fezandipiti. Pecharunt subjugated both of them, transforming Munkidori into a clever Pokémon with the power to see into the near future, and granting Fezandipiti a beautiful look and mesmerizing pheromones.[2]

After arriving in Kitakami during the Festival of Masks, Pecharunt and its three retainers spotted Ogerpon and its partner wearing two of the masks. After having Munkidori track down their home in the Dreaded Den at the top of Oni Mountain, Okidogi and Fezandipiti were tasked with stealing the masks while the two were away. Suddenly, Ogerpon's partner appeared, fighting the three thieves and managing to keep one of the masks safe. Pecharunt briefly reveled in its victory, when suddenly Ogerpon engaged them in battle. Despite their best efforts, the three retainers were unable to fight back against Ogerpon, who launched a final strike against Pecharunt, incapacitating it.[2]

Using the last of its strength, Pecharunt was able to clasp its shell closed, rolling away deep into the forest, left to slumber.[2]

Prior to The Teal Mask

Prior to the events of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet and The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero, a lady would find the slumbering Pecharunt and display it as a decoration in the Peachy's store in Mossui Town. As time passed, the people of Kitakami started knowing it as the Never-Rotting Peach.[1]

The Teal Mask

The slumbering Pecharunt can be seen on the counter of Peachy's in Mossui Town.

Mochi Mayhem

The player interacting with Pecharunt while having the Mythical Pecha Berry in their bag causes it to wake up from its slumber. It vanishes when the player's back is turned.

Pecharunt feeds its binding mochi to the people of Mossui Town, including Carmine. Under the effects of the mochi, people begin to dance peculiarly, only able to say the word "mochi". As revealed by Nemona, Pecharunt had left a plate of Binding Mochi on the counter of Peachy's, for anyone to eat. The last mochi was eaten by Nemona.[3]

Pecharunt is first fully seen by the player, Kieran, Arven, and Penny, floating atop the store as the group is trying to find Nemona.
