Zigzagoon
Zigzagoon is a Pokémon that is very common in Hoenn. Like real raccoons, its curiosity makes it have a tendency to pick up items. It is this special Ability that makes it so valuable to Pokémon Trainers. Even Pokémon Games.com suggests capturing a Zigzagoon at the start of the game just so it picks up items! A version of Zigzagoon that knows Extremespeed can be obtained Pokémon Box.
Pokédex Description
According to the Pokédex, Zigzagoon "is very curious" and therefore "restlessly wanders everywhere at all times." It also rubs its bristly back hair "against trees to leave its territorial markings" and "may play dead to fool foes in battle."
Anime Appearances
Zigzagoon, being as common in Hoenn as it is, has made several appearances in the Pokémon Anime. It first appeared in Pokémon Advance in the episode "In the Knicker of Time!" where a boy dresses up in a Zigzagoon costume to capture one.

Its third prominent appearance occurs in the episode featuring the Winstrate family, where Victor uses one to battle Brock.
