Chatot's US name was revealed on December 17, 2006.
Prior to the release of Diamond and Pearl, Chatot was believed to be the first naturally pure Template:Type2 Pokémon.
Although Chatot's tail very closely resembles a metronome, it cannot learn the move of the same name.
However, the move Metronome is known as "Wag Finger" in Japan, and it's tail clearly isn't a finger.
Chatot is the only Pokémon whose cry is not altered when it faints or is sent out with a status condition.
Chatot is widely considered to be a novelty Pokémon, due to it being comparatively weaker when compared to other Flying-types and whose inclusion in the game simply seems to make use of the Nintendo DS microphone for its Chatter attack.
Chatot is also the only Pokémon that can learn, or even use, Chatter.
Despite a significantly higher Special Attack and Speed stat, Chatot awards EV points in Attack.
In Platinum, a person in Eterna City will trade a Chatot in return for a Buizel, and the Chatot's nickname is Charap, a mixture of the English and Japanese versions of its name.
Chatot closely resembles a Masked Lovebird, a kind of small parrot. It also resembles a small version of a Blue-and-Yellow Macaw. Its head looks like an eighth note, and its tail resembles a metronome. Additionally, its white neck feathers resemble a collar.
Name origin
Chatot's name comes from chat and parrot. Chatot's Japanese name comes from the words parrot and rap. The name could also come from the Japanese word ぺらぺら perapera, which can mean "fluent in languages" but also "blah blah blah", referring to how incessantly some parrots will talk and chatter.
In other languages
German: Plaudagei - From plaudern (chat) and Papagei (parrot).
French: Pijako - Probably from Jacquot, a familiar or cliché word used to refer to parrots.
