In Pokémon Pokopia, which Pokémon is called Smearguru?

The story behind the answer

Smearguru is a Smeargle in Pokémon Pokopia.

Smearguru is an exceptionally talented painter encountered in the game. The character’s name is a wordplay nickname that combines Smeargle with “guru,” emphasizing artistic skill rather than identifying a new Pokémon species.

Smeargle is an especially appropriate Pokémon for this role because its design and abilities are linked to painting. In the wider Pokémon series, Smeargle is known for using its tail as a brush and for the move Sketch, which lets it reproduce many other Pokémon moves.

Pokopia uses Smearguru to show how individual Pokémon can have professions and personalities. The game’s named characters are not merely examples of their species; each one contributes a distinct story, talent, or problem to the process of restoring the world.
