Hitmonchan

Hitmonchan

No.107 · Punching Pokémon

Fighting

Its punches slice the air. However, it seems to need a short break after fighting for three minutes.

Also this date

Mamoswine

Mamoswine

No.473 · Twin Tusk Pokémon

IceGround

This species reached its zenith during the period known as the ice age. I suspect that Hisui's frigid climate is in harmony with Mamoswine's constitution, thus awakening hidden potential.

Why this Pokémon

April 16 is day 107 of the year on a leap-year calendar. Divided by 366 that leaves a remainder of 107, and every Pokédex number leaving the same remainder belongs to this date. The lowest of them, No.107, 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.
