Name origin

Ticken's name is a combination of the words tick, describing what it does with its sharp, metal comb, and chicken, describing the creature itself. It's Japanese name "Tekin/テキン" seems to be a corruption of "chicken (チキン)", as the katakana te/テ and chi/チ look very similar.

Trophy description

The Ticken trophy in Brawl.

An enemy that looks like a chicken--quite a hefty chicken. But despite its weight, it can indeed fly. After taking a certain amount of damage, a Ticken will open up to reveal a little chick enemy. Notice the two bolts on its belly? And what's the deal with the four missing bolts? It probably hasn't even noticed they're missing.

Wii: Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Trivia

  • The Ticken enemy is similar to enemies found in the Sonic series. Both feature a robot-like animal being broken in order to release a small, real animal inside.
