'''Pou''' is an alien who is the title character of [[Pou (game)|the game of the same name]].
==Appearances==
Pou is an alien that is a round edged triangle shape. Pou comes in a tan colored body.
 
==Conditions Appearance ==
Pou is an alien whose body is a round edged triangle shape. Their mouth is located on their left cheek. Pou originally comes in a tan colored body and black eyes, but this can be changed by the player. A baby Pou's eyes are proportionally larger to its body than an adult one's, looking similar to a frog with no appendages. However, the player can change Pou's skin and eye colors.
Pou has four status bars, the hunger bar, the health or vitality bar, the happiness bar, and the sleep bar. These affect the gameplay.
 
===Hunger= Sizes ==
*Baby - 0%-49%
Pou is fed by dragging the various [[Food|foods]] to it's mouth. Certain foods affect Pou's other stats too. On some occasions, especially when fed the same food over and over again, it will refuse to eat the food and make a "no" sound. Pou's hunger increases over time. This will drain the health bar.
*Child - 50%-99%
*Adult - 100%
 
===Dirt= Trivia ==
*Pou pants like a dog after being rubbed, much like being tickled.
Pou gets dirty over time. It also defecates, though it only does so in the bathroom, so the feces ([[Poo|poop]]) can only be seen when the player goes to the bathroom. Pou can be cleaned by being rubbed with the soap and washed off. Pou can also be cleaned by holding the rain cloud over it instead of over the flowers, though this method is unreliable because it gives only half the coins than when done in the bathroom. The feces can be cleaned by simply tapping on it.
*Many players believe that Pou is male. However, it is implied in-universe that Pous are a species and not an individual character.
**Pou is referred to as "it" in the game, and has no option for a gender, but in social media accounts, where Pou is portrayed as an individual, male pronouns are used.
**Pou can be whatever gender the player wants it to be, since Pous have no sexual differences whatsoever, no gender is revealed or said, and there are both masculine and feminine features for Pou in the shop.
*EverytimeEvery you opentime the "Pou" game is opened after you leaveleaving it for too long, pouPou will automatically become "sick", get dirty, and defecate only in the bathroom.
*The name ''Pou'' has different pronunciations depending on the speaker. Some people say it like "poh" (with an "oh" sound). This is implied in the minigame title [[Tic Tac Pou]] and in the Snowpou [[Outfits|outfit]]. Others say the name like "poo" (similar to "Pooh"), and a few say it like "pow" (rhymes with "wow"). In Arabic, Pou is written as بو, which sounds more like "Boo".
*[[Paul Salameh]] voiced Pou by speeding up his voice.<ref>https://www.xataka.com/aplicaciones/este-juego-tiene-nueve-anos-actualmente-supera-500-millones-descargas-android-peta-ios-su-nombre-pou</ref>
*Pou follows the player's finger if they drag it along the screen.
*When Pou gets [[coins]] while playing [[minigames]], an animation plays where it will open its mouth wide, slightly lower it, and then finally close it. The same animation plays when Pou is rubbed.
* Pou's maximum level is 270.
*In the old app icon and in various early merchandise, Pou had a thicker outline.

===Vitality=References==
{{reflist}}
Pou's vitality is drained over time. The rate at it is draining is increased if the food or sleep meter is at 0%.The potions that are used to maintain Pou's health are quite expensive and should be used sparingly.
 
==Possibilities==
Pou simulates parenting as the baby and the player as the parent; it is quite realistic. The player can feed Pou, play with it, tuck it in to sleep, give Pou medicine, clean it, talk to it and dress it up.

==Trivia==
*There is an Windows 10 App called "Mou".
*You can rub Pou and it will act like it is getting tickled, panting like a dog.
*Pou is apparently genderless.
*Everytime you open the "Pou" game after you leave it for too long, pou will automatically become "sick", get dirty, and defecate only in the bathroom.
*The pronunciation of Pou's name is debatable. Some say it's pronounced "poe", some say it's "poo", and some say it's "pow". However, there is a costume called the "Snowpou", so it is likely the first one that's correct.
