Kricketune - Honchkrow

Honchkrow

Honchkrow (ドンカラス, Donkarasu?, Dongkarasu in Japanese language trademarks) evolves from a Murkrow exposed to a Dusk Stone. Its name is derived from, "crow" and "honcho" (from the phrase "head honcho", meaning the boss or leader of a group, particularly one involving crime). Honchkrow is a black (though it's colored blue in the anime and video game sprites) bird Pokémon roughly twice the size of its pre-evolution, Murkrow. Honchkrow has red tail feathers and the underside of its wings are partially red. Honchkrow has a feathery collar that resembles a long white beard (or the white dress shirt of a fancy men's suit). Honchkrow has a straight, yellow beak, circular eyes with red pupils, and a feather crest that resembles a fedora with a feather in the band. Honchkrow is based on a crow with aspects of a crime boss (judging by the fedora and its habit of stealing from others) or a pimp (judging by its fedora-like crest, its feathers that resemble a cape, and how it orders around Murkrow into doing its bidding). It also resembles the beaked plague doctors of the seventeenth century.

Honchkrow have been known to organize flocks of Murkrow. These flocks have been seen flying at night. The purpose of the flocks is unclear, but they are known to collect food for the Honchkrow that organized them. Honchkrow normally spend the daytime hours tending to their feathers in solitude.
