From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Conkeldurr (Japanese: ローブシン Roubushin) is a Fighting-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V.
It evolves from Gurdurr when traded. It is the final form of Timburr.
Biology
Conkeldurr is a bipedal sepia-colored Pokémon resembling an ogre. Its nose is large and red, with its face also having a prominent brow, a wide mouth, a gray tuft on its chin, dark rings around its eyes and a bulbous feature sticking up from the back of its head. Thick violet bands and tendons adorn its shoulders, chest, back and thighs. It is known to carry concrete pillars in its massive arms, which it uses to attack strongly without using physical strength or to support its massive upper body. Conkeldurr can create concrete, a technique it was believed to have taught humans 2000 years ago. It is often seen around construction sites helping construction workers.
In the anime
Major appearances
Conkeldurr debuted in The Clubsplosion Begins!, under the ownership of Trip. It was later revealed to have evolved from Gurdurr sometime prior to the events of that episode. Conkeldurr battled Bianca's Emboar during the Clubsplosion, but it was soon defeated when Emboar flung its own concrete pillars at it.
Multiple Conkeldurr appeared in Ash and N: A Clash of Ideals!, Team Plasma and the Awakening Ceremony!, and What Lies Beyond Truth and Ideals!. They were owned by Cedric Juniper's assistants and used at the White Ruins, but all of them were later turned against their owners by Colress. They were eventually freed when Pikachu and Reshiram destroyed Colress's mind-control device.
A Conkeldurr appeared in The Forest Champion!, where they and an Ursaring were tricked by the former forest champion Machamp into battling Hawlucha and then ganging up on it.
Minor appearances
A Conkeldurr appeared in Genesect and the Legend Awakened, under the ownership of some Workers in New Tork City.

Trivia
- Conkeldurr's evolutionary line shares many similarities with Machamp's evolutionary line. Both of them are Fighting-type Pokémon whose Attack is their highest stat, have below average Speed, have the same gender ratio, have three evolutionary stages, reach their respective final-evolutionary form through trading and have the same base stat total.
- Due to the censor that prevents Pokémon with offensive nicknames being traded on the GTS, an English language Conkeldurr cannot be traded on the GTS without a nickname in Pokémon Black and White.
- In Pokémon Conquest, Conkeldurr and its pre-evolved form, Gurdurr, are the only Pokémon that share a max link of 100% with five different Warriors, which is the highest amount found in the game.
Origin
At first glance, Conkeldurr's brutal humanoid appearance suggests inspiration from ogres of folklore. Timburr's Pokédex entry supports that it and its evolved forms are based on construction workers. Due to its clown nose and buff body, it may have also been based on a muscleman carny from a carnival sideshow. It also seems to be based on an elderly person since it has a gray tuft under its chin and uses its pillars as walking canes.A red nose is also given to some anime characters, commonly shown on many older men.
Name origin
Conkeldurr may be a combination of concrete and elder. It may also involve conk, having meaning as both an especially large nose and to hit someone on the head.
Roubushin may be a combination of 老 rō (old) and 武神 bushin (warlord) or 普請 fushin (construction work/public work).
