Dex Entry:
Pingakaw has a burning passion for surfing and always looks so cool! It always rides the waves with its self-made surfboard, their personality truly shows in its unique surfboards made from ice. While surfing they cover their skin with a protective layer of ice.
Name origins: Pinguin + Akaw (surf slang for cool/awesome)
Origin of design: Pingakaw is based on a Fakemon I made when I was 8, a child's imagination mixing a penguin with fire. Its current design references surfers and their cool and calm attitude.
It's based on a Macaroni penguin and represents the rebellious stage questioning its origins and doing its own thing.
