Buzzwole is an Ultra Beast that resembles a large, red, anthropomorphic mosquito. It has bulging muscles that appear to be made out of sacs that are filled with a red fluid that has small white bubbles rising in it. These muscles also have white "veins" running through them, and are said to be stronger than steel. There are also black spikes on Buzzwole's body, particularly its shoulders, elbows and knees. Its head is small and flat, with two red compound eyes, and two black, spherical basal joints for its red and black antennae between them. Protruding from under these joints is a long, silver proboscis, which is said to be as hard as diamond. It has four legs without feet and two pairs of orange, translucent wings.

Buzzwole is an Ultra Beast that resembles a large, anthropomorphic mosquito. Its head is small and flat with a black ridge up the center. It has two red compound eyes with two black, spherical basal joints for its red and black antennae between them. Protruding from under these joints is a long, silver proboscis. It has many bulging muscles that appear to be sacs full of a red fluid with small white bubbles inside. There are three sacs on each arm, two on each leg, two on its chest, and several on its shoulders and down its back. Around its waist are three rings of smaller sacs. The muscles on its chest and some on its arms and waist have thin, grayish lines resembling tendons running across them. It has large, five-fingered hands with red knuckles and four pointed legs. There are several black spikes on its body: a small one on each side of its head, two on each shoulder, one on each elbow, and one on each leg. The portions of its body between its muscles are dark red or black. On its back are two pairs of pale orange wings with slightly darker veins.


According to the [[Aether Foundation]], its most notable feature is its ability to strengthen itself. By absorbing the energy of its foes, it triggers a chemical reaction within its body fluids that causes its muscles to grow at explosive rates. Buzzwole appears to strike bodybuilding poses before it performs any sort of action; this is thought to be its main form of communication, but what it could be trying to communicate is not understood.
Buzzwole live in another world named [[Ultra Jungle]]. Its proboscis is said to be harder than a diamond<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20170709000035/http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/ultra-beasts Sun and Moon Site | Ultra Beats]</ref>. Buzzole is powerful enough destroy to a dump truck with a single punch. According to [[Wicke]] from the [[Aether Foundation]], Buzzwole's most distinctive feature is its skill to strengthen itself. Buzzwole is able to absorb energy and then achieve a chemical reaction between the energy it has absorbed and its own body fluids.
<!--
As a result, Buzzwole's body swells to an almost explosive extent. Its muscles bulge and are so thick and dense that they are stronger even than steel. Both its Attack and Defense experience a clear leap in power. It also displays a habit of striking a pose each time that it takes any sort of action, it is thought this might serve as a method of communication, but it is not well understood.

==In the manga==
Wicke also claims that like all Ultra Beasts, Buzzwole stores the same energy possessed by [[Totem Pokémon]] within its body, which takes the form of a red, flaring aura<ref>[[Wicke]], {{g|Sun and Moon}}:''"When the UBs pass through the Ultra Wormhole, they are bathed in a great deal of this energy and likely store it within their bodies."''</ref>. This energy is called [[Z-Power]].

===Origin===
===Origin===
Buzzwole is based on both a {{wp|mosquito}} and a {{wp|bodybuilder}}.
Buzzwole is based on a {{wp|mosquito}}, given a strong muscular physique to contrast its real-world size and frailness.<ref>(2017). [https://web.archive.org/web/20180422083005/https://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/an-exclusive-interview-with-the-makers-of-pokemon-ultra-sun-and-pokemon-ultra-moon/ An Exclusive Interview with the makers of ''Pokémon Ultra Sun'' and ''Pokémon Ultra Moon''! - Pokémon.com] (archived)</ref> The specific kind of mosquito may be the ''{{wp|Aedes albopictus}}'', which is an invasive species worldwide.
 
Buzzwole's physique may be inspired by {{wp|bodybuilder}}s, or common depictions of superheroes in comic books. The black portions of its body resemble the shading in comic book illustrations used to draw attention to a character's musculature.
 
====Name origin====
====Name origin====
Buzzwole may be a combination of ''buzz'' and the slang ''swole'', which refers to someone muscular.
Buzzwole may be a combination of ''buzz''; the slang word ''swole'', meaning muscular; and ''bustle'', meaning both: to abound or swarm something, and to move or act with a great show of energy.


Masshibūn may be a combination of ''massive'', 蚊 ''bun'' (mosquito), and ブーン ''būn'' (buzz).
Massivoon may be a combination of ''massive'' and 蚊 ''bun'' (mosquito) or ブーン ''būn'' (buzz).

Buzzwole (Japanese: マッシブーン Massivoon) is a dual-type Bug/Fighting Ultra Beast introduced in Generation VII.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

It is code named UB-02 Absorption (Japanese: UB02 Expansion).

Biology

Buzzwole absorbing the energy of a wild Snorlax

Buzzwole is an Ultra Beast that resembles a large, anthropomorphic mosquito. Its head is small and flat with a black ridge up the center. It has two red compound eyes with two black, spherical basal joints for its red and black antennae between them. Protruding from under these joints is a long, silver proboscis. It has many bulging muscles that appear to be sacs full of a red fluid with small white bubbles inside. There are three sacs on each arm, two on each leg, two on its chest, and several on its shoulders and down its back. Around its waist are three rings of smaller sacs. The muscles on its chest and some on its arms and waist have thin, grayish lines resembling tendons running across them. It has large, five-fingered hands with red knuckles and four pointed legs. There are several black spikes on its body: a small one on each side of its head, two on each shoulder, one on each elbow, and one on each leg. The portions of its body between its muscles are dark red or black. On its back are two pairs of pale orange wings with slightly darker veins.

Buzzwole live in another world named Ultra Jungle. Its proboscis is said to be harder than a diamond[1]. Buzzole is powerful enough destroy to a dump truck with a single punch. According to Wicke from the Aether Foundation, Buzzwole's most distinctive feature is its skill to strengthen itself. Buzzwole is able to absorb energy and then achieve a chemical reaction between the energy it has absorbed and its own body fluids. As a result, Buzzwole's body swells to an almost explosive extent. Its muscles bulge and are so thick and dense that they are stronger even than steel. Both its Attack and Defense experience a clear leap in power. It also displays a habit of striking a pose each time that it takes any sort of action, it is thought this might serve as a method of communication, but it is not well understood.

Wicke also claims that like all Ultra Beasts, Buzzwole stores the same energy possessed by Totem Pokémon within its body, which takes the form of a red, flaring aura[2]. This energy is called Z-Power.

Trivia

Origin

Buzzwole is based on a mosquito, given a strong muscular physique to contrast its real-world size and frailness.[4] The specific kind of mosquito may be the Aedes albopictus, which is an invasive species worldwide.

Buzzwole's physique may be inspired by bodybuilders, or common depictions of superheroes in comic books. The black portions of its body resemble the shading in comic book illustrations used to draw attention to a character's musculature.

Name origin

Buzzwole may be a combination of buzz; the slang word swole, meaning muscular; and bustle, meaning both: to abound or swarm something, and to move or act with a great show of energy.

Massivoon may be a combination of massive and 蚊 bun (mosquito) or ブーン būn (buzz).
