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.
