Talkatoo is a parrot from the game Super Mario Odyssey. He appears across multiple kingdoms and gives names of Power Moons to Mario when consulted. The message consists of a recurring sentence: "I can't tell you, but I'll give you a clue: (name of the Power Moon) ♪ It's hiding somewhere and no peeking! ♪ Go find it, go find it, scra-CAW!". During the fight against Mollusque-Lanceur, however, he merely squawks in fear. He is mostly yellow in color, has a black beak and has an explorer's hat with a feather in it.
His name is a portmanteau of "talk" and "cockatoo."
