O! A new Pokémon!
Otachi is an early, common Pokémon in the Silver and Gold editions of Pokémon. He's kind of like Tigger in that he uses his tail to stand on and look out for friends. He's a nimble Pokémon, so he's rascally when you try to nab him, but he's quite common, so if you lose him, just find another. They're worth catching, because they evolve into the Ootachi...it's just fun to say Ootachi.
Chances are good that Otachi's name will change when Pokémon Silver and Gold are released in the states.
Now take this information over to our Pokémon Contest page, get the answer right, and sit back -- you may win yourself a few cool Pokémon toys.
