Sequoia's Noctowl

"Noc-TOWWWLLLL!!"

- When the player is about to enter the Crystal Volcano Nightmaren is Professor Sequoia's partner pokemon. He is a male Noctowl whose traits, like other non-obtainable pokemon, do not affect him, as Sequoia never battles the player. When the player encounters the legendary of their game, the transformed Unknownite which Nightmaren has will be given to them, with the message 'Nightmaren gave you the [Drasidianite/Serpoceanite]!'.

In the anime, the Unknownite is renamed the Pearl of Salt and Lava.

Personality
"Oh, and this is my partner, Nightmaren! He's a strange Noctowl, for sure. Just look at him! Awake during the day!"

- Sequoia Nightmaren appears to be diurnal, which isn't normal for a Noctowl. He seems to be inquisitive, as said by Sequoia when the player asks her 'Tell me more about Nightmaren!', mentioning that he "picked up a strange mega-stone-like object, which [Sequoia] turned into a necklace". (This turns out to be the Unknownite, which is extremely important to the plot.)

Appearance
"I've been trying to figure out why his feathers are brighter than other Noctowl, but to no avail..."

- Sequoia

Nightmaren is similar to other Noctowl, but his body is a bit brighter than other Noctowl. He also has a necklace with the Unknownite, which either turns into the Drasidianite[Lava] or the Serpoceanite[Salt], depending on the game.
