History []
Tinkaton is a pink humanoid Pokémon, with large, white arms and short, stumpy toeless feet with light pink circles underneath. Its arms have five fingers each, with the thumbs having the same color of pink as the body. It has steel plates on its hips that resemble outturned pockets. Its face has silver eyes with thin eyelashes, and a large mouth with two square teeth-like growths on the upper lips. On top of its head is a large, pinkish-white growth resembling a twin-tail hairstyle, which droops over Tinkaton's back and has darker pink zigzag patterns accenting it.
Tinkaton wields a crude, gigantic metal hammer that weighs over 220 pounds (100 kg) and is larger than its own body. The hammer appears to have been made using the old hammer Tinkaton had as a Tinkatuff for the base, with several scraps of metal colored in varying shades of gray and purple welded onto it. The hammer also has a spiked beige axe-like structure on top. Although the hammer is heavy, Tinkaton can swing it with ease by using its whole body.
Tinkaton is intelligent but has a reckless personality. It swings its hammer at rocks to send them into the sky, aiming to hit flying Corviknight. This Pokémon will also steal anything that it wants and take it back to its dwelling. It has been observed using its hammer like a bed to sleep on. Tinkaton is the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Gigaton Hammer.

Powers[]
- Superhuman Strength: Despite their small size, Tinkatons possess superhuman strength, casually wielding a hammer that weighs 220 lbs and being able to run and jump through the air without the hammer's weight slowing them down. Even Tinkaton's prior evolution Tinkatink is strong enough to fuse pieces of iron together with its physical strikes, and Tinkatuff, Tinkaton's second form, regularly attack and kills groups of Pawniard and Bisharp in order to steal the metal from their bodies.
- Superhuman Speed: Tinkatons, like most Pokémon, possess superhuman speed, with the reflexes to dodge lightning and light based attacks from other Pokémon in the natural habitats they inhabit together.
- Hammer Mastery: Tinkaton spend their entire life crafting the giant hammer they wield, having started on it when they were just a Tinkatink and gradually building it up as they evolved. They are skilled enough with the hammer to accurately knock Corviknight out of the air by launching rocks.
- Resistance to Normal, Flying, Rock, Bug, Grass, Psychic, Ice, Dark, and Fairy-Type Moves Due to being a Fairy and Steel Type Pokemon, Tinkaton are naturally resistant to Normal, Flying, Rock, Grass, Psychic, Ice, Dark, and Fairy-Type attacks, and heavily resistant to Bug-Type attacks.
- Immunity to Poison and Dragon-Type Moves Due to being a Fairy and Steel Type Pokémon, Tinkaton are naturally immune to Dragon and Poison-Type attacks respectively.
Abilities[]
- Mold Breaker: When a Pokémon with Mold Breaker uses a move, the effects of all Pokémon's ignorable Abilities are ignored for the execution of that move. Ignorable Abilities are most Abilities that could potentially negatively affect the success, damage, or effects of a move if possessed by the target of a move or its allies. For example, a Pokémon with Mold Breaker that uses Earthquake can hit opponents that have Levitate.
- Own Tempo: Own Tempo prevents the Pokémon from being afflicted by confusion, even if it is self-inflicted, such as from moves like Thrash or items like the Iapapa Berry. A Pokémon with this Ability will be cured of confusion if it is confused while in battle, such as if it gains the Ability by an effect like Skill Swap, or is confused by a Pokémon with an Ability like Mold Breaker. The Pokémon is also unaffected by Intimidate.
- Pickpocket: When a Pokémon with this Ability is hit by a move that makes contact, the Pokémon with this Ability will steal the held item of the attacking Pokémon. It will not activate if the Pokémon with this Ability already has a held item. It will not activate if the Pokémon with this Ability is knocked out by that move. Wild Pokémon cannot steal the player's Pokémon's held items. Pickpocket cannot steal from a Pokémon with Sticky Hold. It cannot steal Mail or a Z-Crystal. It cannot steal a legendary item from its respective pokemon, such as a Griseous Orb if either Pokémon is Giratina, a Plate if either Pokémon is Arceus, a memory if either Pokémon is Silvally, a Drive if either Pokémon is Genesect, a Mega Stone if either Pokémon can Mega Evolve using it, a Blue Orb if either Pokémon is Kyogre, a Red Orb if either Pokémon is Groudon, the Rusted Sword if either Pokémon is Zacian, the Rusted Shield if either Pokémon is Zamazenta, or Booster Energy if either Pokémon has the Ability Protosynthesis or Quark Drive.
- Terastallization: The Terastal phenomenon or Terastallization is a temporary transformation affecting Pokémon that was introduced in Generation IX. When Terastalized, a Tera Jewel appear above the Pokémon's head and causes the Pokémon's body to glisten like polished, faceted gemstones. This changes the Pokémon's defensive type(s) to its Tera Type, removing all other types. Terastallized Pokémon are identified by having "Tera" in front of their name. While Terastallized, Pokémon receive STAB (Same Type Attack Bonus) on moves matching their Tera Type, in addition to moves matching the types they had immediately before Terastallizing. If the Pokémon's Tera Type is the same as one of its original types, moves of that type receive a x2 power boost instead of the usual x1.5.
