Maushold (Japanese: イッカネズミ Ikkanezumi) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation IX.

It evolves from Tandemaus starting at level 25 only when leveled up in a battle. It will still evolve but skip the evolution animation, if leveled up in a battle it was not sent out in.

Maushold has two different forms: Family of Four and Family of Three. When Tandemaus evolves, the form it evolves into is determined by its encryption constant, with a 1/100 chance of evolving into Family of Three Maushold. This is not the case for Maushold obtained via Tera Raid Battles, as these may have either form regardless of their encryption constant value.

Biology

Maushold is a group of three or four separate mouse-like rodent Pokémon which work together as one, similar to Exeggcute, Falinks, or its pre-evolution Tandemaus. Each individual is small, white, and bipedal, and has a spherical head with large ears and stubby limbs that have large paws. Each one also has two black beady eyes, a tiny black nose with short whiskers, and a long tail which curls up and ends with a bulbous tip. When they open their mouths, which take up over half of their faces when fully open, a single upper incisor can be seen on the insides of each one.

Two of the individuals are larger, and their appearance is virtually unchanged from Tandemaus, where one has a light-gray patch of fur surrounding its chest which resembles a shirt, while the other has a light-gray patch of fur surrounding its legs, which resembles a pair of pants. The pair are accompanied by one or two smaller ones, which lack the light-gray patch of fur. The smaller ones tend to hide behind the larger pair.

No one knows where the smaller individuals that form Maushold come from. The larger and smaller individuals live together and act as a family; however, their actual relationship is unclear. The larger individuals protect the smaller ones in battle, although they will all work together when faced with strong opponents. Maushold creates and lives in huge nests comprising many rooms with different purposes, such as eating and sleeping.

Maushold and its pre-evolved form, Tandemaus, are the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Population Bomb. Maushold is also the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Tidy Up.

Trivia

• Maushold and its pre-evolved form are the only gender unknown Pokémon in the Field Egg Group.
• Maushold is the only Pokémon to have Friend Guard as a standard Ability instead of a Hidden Ability.
• Maushold has different cries depending on its form.

Origin

Maushold seems to be based on a family of mice. Specifically, based on its white coloration and its Pokédex entries describing how it lives in large nests with dedicated rooms, it may be based on laboratory mice and how they are studied in simulacrums of human behavior. Its forms may be based on the concept of a nuclear family, and its doll-like appearance may reference dollhouse figurines such as the Japanese doll line, Sylvanian Families.

Name origin

Maushold may be a combination of Maus (German for mouse) and household.

Ikkanezumi may be a combination of 一家 ikka (family) and 鼠 nezumi (mouse).
