Its story

Appearance

Scorbunny looks like a white rabbit, with orange and yellow marks on its ears, toes, and neck. Buck teeth, an orange nose crossed by a yellow bandage-like band, long legs, and a small fluffy tail.

Lifestyle

Full of energy, it runs and fights at full power after a warm-up, its hot soles starting small fires. Rare and usually with trainers, it evolves into Raboot, then Cinderace.

In the anime

Goh's Scorbunny lives in Wyndon with Nickit. After Ash defeats it, it grows fond of Goh, who catches it; it later becomes Raboot, then Cinderace.

Name origin

Scorbunny is based on a white rabbit; the yellow nose bandage signals a rambunctious personality. Scorbunny may blend scorch or score with bunny.
