Skwovet (Japanese: ホシガリス Hoshigarisu) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VIII.

It evolves into Greedent starting at level 24.

Biology

Skwovet is a squirrel-like Pokémon. It is grayish-brown in color, with a large fluffy tail, which is dark-grayish-brown at the top. Skwovet has a light-grayish-brown underbelly, and the color extends to its mouth and parts of its cheeks. Its cheeks are normally stuffed with berries. It has two orange freckles underneath each eye and an orange nose. Its ears are similar in color with its tail, and they have orange insides.

Using its special cheeks, Skwovet can stuff a tremendous amount of food and can stretch to many times its normal volume. When they are not eating berries, they spit out the seeds in the rich soil in order to cultivate berry trees.

Skwovet and its evolved form Greedent are the only known Pokémon capable of using the move Stuff Cheeks.
