Exeggutor is a unique Grass/Psychic-type Pokémon resembling a tall, bipedal coconut tree. It stands at 6'7" (2m) tall and weighs 264.6 lbs (120 kg). This peculiar Pokémon has three round, light yellow heads that resemble coconuts, each with different facial expressions. Exeggutor's three heads think independently and don't appear interested in one another, causing it to make a lot of noise as each head speaks its mind. Despite their independent thinking, the heads are friendly and never squabble amongst themselves.
Exeggutor has been referred to as "The Walking Tropical Rainforest" or "The Walking Jungle". Its psychic powers are tripled due to all three heads being capable of using them. Interestingly, if one of Exeggutor's heads grows too large, it falls off and groups together with others to become an Exeggcute. This Pokémon is rarely found in the wild, though they can occasionally be spotted in forests and jungles.
In the Alola region, Exeggutor has a distinct form that is much taller (35'9" or 10.9m) and gains the Dragon type in addition to its Grass type. Alolan people take pride in this form, considering it the true appearance of Exeggutor.
