Sudowoodo (Japanese: ウソッキー Usokkie) is a Template:Type2 Pokémon.

It evolves from Bonsly when leveled up while knowing Mimic.

In Generation II, its remakes and Pokémon Emerald, wild Sudowoodo can be found blocking the road in inconvenient locations in Johto and Hoenn. In order to catch one, a Trainer must first alert it by squirting it with water from either a Squirtbottle or Wailmer Pail.

Biology

Physiology

Sudowoodo has a brown, log-shaped body with some yellow spots on it. It has short legs with toe-less feet. Sudowoodo has club (♣) shaped hands that remain green year-round. Sudowoodo has a forked "branch" on top of its head. Despite its plant-like appearance, its body is actually made of rock.

Gender differences

A female has shorter "branches" on the top of its head.

Special abilities

Sudowoodo is most known for Mimicking its opponents' attacks. Sudowoodo is protected from receiving recoil damage when using attacks like Wood Hammer and Double-Edge. As a Rock-type Pokémon, Sudowoodo is capable of a wide variety of Rock and Ground attacks such as Stone Edge and Earthquake. It can also learn Template:Type2 attacks, such as Hammer Arm and Brick Break. Sudowoodo can also learn Calm Mind, which is strange due to the fact that Hidden Power, Mud-Slap, Snore and Earth Power (the latter three only from move tutors in HeartGold, SoulSilver, and Platinum) are the only special moves that Sudowoodo can use (and very poorly on that note). Even stranger is the fact that Sudowoodo lacks the ability to use Hyper Beam and Giga Impact, despite being a fully evolved Pokémon.

Behavior

Sudowoodo pretends to be a plant, but it is afraid of water, and its composition is closer to a rock than to a plant.

Habitat

File:Forest.gif

Forest Pokémon

Sudowoodo can be found living in forests, but finding one can sometimes be a little tricky as Sudowoodo have the aforementioned habit of pretending to be a tree in order to blend in with their surroundings.

However, during winters, Sudowoodo's camouflage fails. Its forearms remain green, even in winter, thus it is easy to tell it from true trees. This may cause massive migrations of Sudowoodo to more southern areas, where the winter may not affect its camouflage.

Sudowoodo have been sighted in Johto and Hoenn's Battle Frontier. However, they are more numerous in Sinnoh, where they can sometimes be found in the wild.

Major appearances

Brock's Sudowoodo

Brock's Bonsly evolved into Sudowoodo in Leave It To Brocko. While as a Bonsly, it was mostly a cry-baby and always wanted attention, but as a Sudowoodo, it has proven itself to be a strong, reliable partner to Brock.

Other

Sudowoodo first appeared in Type Casting. Two Pokémon researchers were arguing whether Sudowoodo was a Grass- or Template:Type2.

A golden Sudowoodo appeared in All That Glitters is Not Golden. A boy named Keenan experimented on his Sudowoodo to make it strong against Water and it turned golden. The Sudowoodo was upset with the change, and hated Keenan for what he did to it. Keenan managed to turn his Sudowoodo back to normal at the end of the episode.

Minor appearances

A Sudowoodo was pretending to be part of a tree in Camp Pikachu.

A Sudowoodo appeared in A Bite to Remember.

In the manga

In the Magical Pokémon Journey manga

In Pikachu and Clefairy's Heroic Tales, Pikachu and Clefairy battle a Prince Sudowoodo of the Stone Kingdom because he has ordered his underlings to kidnap Princess Bellossom of the Flower Kingdom, as he intends to marry her. At the end, Bellossom agrees to become friends with him, but not to marry him right away.

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

In Volume 9, a Sudowoodo disguises itself as a tree in the middle of Route 37, hiding from a Rhydon. Gold convinced Sudowoodo not to run away from its problems, and Sudowoodo went on to defeat Rhydon in hand-to-hand combat. It soon after joined Gold's team and participated in his friendly match against Silver, and later the Masked Man.

A Sudowoodo is captured by Emerald at the Battle Frontier. It appears to be a female Sudowoodo, due to its motherly nature. Furthermore, it appeared to have developed a romantic relationship with Gold's Sudowoodo, which is a level 44 male.

Other appearances

Super Smash Bros. Melee

Sudowoodo is a Poké Float. After Wooper first appears, it will move down the right of the screen while Sudowoodo is on the left. Unlike most of the Poké Floats, players are not required to ever go on Sudowoodo. A trophy of Sudowoodo can be obtained after playing on the Poké Floats stage.

Trophy information

An imitation Pokémon with an aversion to battle, Sudowoodo always poses as a tree in order to avoid being attacked. Despite their arboreal appearance, these Pokémon are actually Rock-types, and therefore highly vulnerable to water. When it begins to rain, they vanish. A Sudowoodo can be found blocking Route 36 in Johto.

Trivia

• Sudowoodo was created by Ken Sugimori.
• In the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series, Sudowoodo stand still in dungeons pretending to be trees, in a similar manner to the Sudowoodo in Johto.
• Despite appearance as a Grass type, Sudowoodo is a Rock type.
• Sudowoodo is the first pure Template:Type2 Pokémon in the National Pokédex order.
• Sudowoodo is the only non-Grass Pokémon to learn Wood Hammer by leveling up.
  • Sudowoodo is also the only Pokémon that can resist the recoil damage from this move.
• In Generation II, only one Sudowoodo appears (from being sprayed with water from a Squirtbottle). Similarly, in Generation III, only one Sudowoodo appears--this time as the result of a spray from the Wailmer Pail. However, in Generation IV, the player can get multiple Sudowoodo by evolving Bonsly or by catching it in grass.
• In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, Sudowoodo, along with Skuntank, Togekiss, Fearow and Yanma, weighs as much as the male protagonist of the game.
• Although it is stated that it can't stand water, health replenishing items such as Fresh Water can be used to heal. Apparently, Sudowoodo may just not like being wet, but it can take water internally.

Origin

Sudowoodo is based on petrified wood, plants which have become fossilized over time.

Name origin

Sudowoodo is a portmanteau of pseudo-, prefix meaning false, and wood. Usokkie could be a misspelling of 嘘つき usotsuki, fibber. It could also be a combination of 嘘 uso, false, and 木 ki, wood or tree.

In other languages

Language Name Name Origin German Mogelbaum A combination of mogeln and Baum. French Simularbre From simuler and arbre. Korean 꼬지모 Kkojimo Chinese (Mandarin) 胡說樹 Hú Shuō Shù Literally "Driveling tree".
