Which Pokémon has the special name Smearguru in Pokémon Pokopia?

Smearguru is a Smeargle in Pokémon Pokopia.

The character’s name highlights Smeargle’s established artistic identity. Smeargle is known for painting with the brush-like tail that produces colored fluid, so a particularly talented painter can naturally be presented as a “guru” of the craft. Pokopia uses that idea to give the resident a memorable role in the rebuilding community.

This is more than a cosmetic name change. Pokopia introduces special Pokémon with individual identities, abilities, and stories as Ditto restores different habitats. Smearguru belongs to that group of named residents rather than being a new species or an evolution.

Grafaiai is an easy alternative to choose because it is another Pokémon associated with painting and colorful markings. However, Smearguru’s base species is Smeargle. The answer is also not “Smearguru” when the question asks for the Pokémon species; Smearguru is the character’s nickname, while Smeargle is the species name.
