The prismatointercepted pentachoron, or pinnip, is a nonconvex uniform polychoron that consists of 5 regular octahedra and 10 triangular prisms. 3 octahedra and 6 triangular prisms join at each vertex.

It is the simplest wild uniform polytope. It is wild because it has octahedra with squares intercepting them.

Its vertices are the same as those of its regiment colonel, the rectified pentachoron.
