Pajay is a dual-type Fire/Flying Pokémon.

It evolves from Palij starting at level 36, which evolves from Pahar starting at level 19.

Pajay has a Nuclear-type variant.

Pokédex Entry

Pokédex entry Every year, massive flocks of PAHAR and PALIJ migrate from Tandor to the Orange Islands. A PAJAY leads each one.

Biology

Physiology

Pajay is a large bird Pokémon resembling a cross between a parrot and a bird of prey. It has a red-feathered body with green feathers on its wings, a white beak and facial mask and long, multicolored plumes on its head and tail. Its wings are constantly trailing fire, and it has two fire streamers that trail behind it as it flies.

Special Abilities

Pajay can fly for great distances without getting tired. Their fire abilities are highly advanced, making them skilled in battle. They are also intelligent Pokémon and can mimic back sounds very easily.

Behavior

Pajay retain their pre-evolution's intelligence but are in fact quite vain Pokémon that are constantly preening themselves. However this is because their beaks secrete a fire-resistant substance that they must constantly use to coat their feathers in order to prevent them from burning.

Habitat

Pajay are migratory Pokémon that travel thousands of miles each year. A solitary Pajay leads each flock of Pahar and Palij. They prefer warm, tropical regions with lots of fruit to eat. They can also catch and eat bugs.

Trivia

• Pahar's entire line was designed & sprited by Twitch.
• Nuclear Pajay, along with Nuclear Pahar and Nuclear Palij, are the only Pokémon distributed as a Mystery Gift that can be encountered in Randomized Mode. Since Randomizer prevents wild Pokémon from having their Hidden Ability (except if hunted via Poké Radar), Nuclear Pahar, Nuclear Palij and Nuclear Pajay can only be encountered with the line's two regular Abilities : Flash Fire and Big Pecks
• Nuclear Pajay was not obtainable through normal gameplay until 1.3.0, however, it did not have Nuclear-type moves.
• Prior to 1.3.1, Nuclear Pajay's only Nuclear moves were Nuclear Wind and Half-Life.
• Professor Bamb'o has a Pajay, which he uses to fly around the Tandor Reigon.
• Pajay's cry is most likely that of a red tailed hawk.

Design Origin

Pajay is based on a both a phoenix and a parrot.

Name Origin

Pajay's name comes from the Spanish word pájaro, meaning bird. It also includes jay, another type of bird.
