Tangrowth (Japanese: モジャンボ Mojumbo) is a Template:Type2 Pokémon.

It evolves from Tangela by level-up while knowing AncientPower.

Biology

Physiology

Tangrowth is a 6-foot tall Pokémon with a black body wrapped in blue vines. Its stubby feet are tipped with red. Tangrowth has grown a pair of blue arms that have three fingers that are tipped with red. Tangrowth's arms are boneless and are unable to respond to pain, meaning that the arms can break off and Tangrowth wouldn't mind if the situation actually did occur. A pair of saucer-like eyes peek out from beneath the tangled mess of vines.

Gender differences

A female Tangrowth's fingers are completely red while a male's fingers only have red tips.

Special abilities

Much like Tangela, Tangrowth can Template:M2 and Template:M2 its foes with its vines.

Trivia

  • Its "hands" look very similar to those of Croagunk.
  • Until the release of Pokémon Platinum, the only way to obtain Tangrowth would be to Pal Park a Tangela and evolve it. This was the only case in which a Generation IV Pokémon was only obtainable from using the Pal Park.

Origin

Tangrowth may be based off of an exaggerated concept of a shaggy caveman.

Name origin

Tangrowth's name is derived from tangle and growth.

Mojumbo's name comes from もじゃもじゃ mojyamojya, which means shaggy or unkempt. It is also possible that the "jumbo" part of its name refers that it is roughly twice the size of Tangela.

Its German name, Tangoloss, comes from Seetang and Koloss. Its French name, Bouldeneu, comes from boule de nœuds.
