Skitty live in the hollows of trees, though some strays can be found wandering around cities as well. They are easily distracted by moving objects, often following them for long distances away from home. Researchers believe that urban Skitty populations arose from lone Skitty following cars and trucks into metropolises. They have a habit of chasing their own tails, running around in circles until they tire and becomes dizzy. Many people find their behavior cute; consequently, they are very popular pets. However, it is difficult to earn a Skittyβs trust, as they are wary of strangers. They will quickly warm up to anyone who consistently supplies them with food and toys, though. In battle, they will attempt to intimidate foes by puffing up their tails and letting out squeaky growls. This often ends up making them appear adorable rather than intimidating, however. When two Skitty meet, they will immediately touch tails. Once both are comfortable with one another, they will begin to play games of tag by chasing each otherβs tails.
