History

As a Skitty

Coco was, alongside Nana and Ruru, the Pokémon Norman gave to Ruby before the events of the fifth chapter. Coco is known to have won many contests for Ruby in the Johto region before her introduction.

Coco made her debut alongside Ruby's other Pokémon in Vs. Cacnea. Ruby later used her to help Zuzu in training his appeal skills, but without much success. In addition to her contest skills, Coco has been shown to be a strong battler when she defeated a wild Crawdaunt on board Mr. Briney's boat. She is also revealed to get seasick while sailing, and has a habit of chasing her tail.

She evolved in Granite Cave alongside Nana after touching Steven's Moon Stone, where she was used to prevent the wild Mawile from escaping Steven's trap. Ruby mentions that she became even cuter after evolution. Coco was also used in battle when Ruby decided to face Norman after being found by him in the Weather Institute, however in this battle she was only used to lure Norman into a corner, in order to allow Zuzu to deliver the real attack.

Coco easily won the Normal and Super Rank Cuteness Contests. She was also used in an unofficial Beauty contest against Wallace, but was defeated. She won the Hyper Rank of the same category when Ruby traveled to Slateport after his fight with Sapphire in Fortree City. She was used again in the battle against Archie and Maxie in Cave of Origin alongside Ruby's and Sapphire's other Pokémon. Coco later won the Master Rank of the Cuteness Contests.
