Your birthday Pokémon

Poliwhirl

No.061 · Tadpole Pokémon

Water

This Pokémon’s sweat is a slimy mucus. When captured, Poliwhirl can slither from its enemies’ grasp and escape.

Also this date

Buneary

No.427 · Rabbit Pokémon

Normal

My hypothesis as to why Buneary rolls up its ears is that its hearing is far too keen. I surmise that the Pokémon protects its hearing by limiting the sound that may enter its ears.

Nihilego

No.793 · Parasite Pokémon

RockPoison

It appeared in this world from an Ultra Wormhole. Nihilego appears to be a parasite that lives by feeding on people and Pokémon.

Pokédex data

Nihilego is the tallest, heaviest and strongest of the 3 on this date.

Why this Pokémon

March 1 is day 61 of the year on a leap-year calendar. Divided by 366 that leaves a remainder of 61, and every Pokédex number leaving the same remainder belongs to this date. The lowest of them, No.061, is the one this page leads with.

The straightforward reading — 27 July becomes No. 727 — breaks down in November, where the numbers run past 1025 and leave those birthdays empty. Cycling through 366 keeps every date filled.
