Using its leaf, Pangoro can predict the moves of its opponents. It strikes with punches that can turn a dump truck into scrap with just one hit.
Shield
This Pokémon is quick to anger, and it has no problem using its prodigious strength to get its way. It lives for duels against Obstagoon.
Sword
Pangoro is the type to talk with its fists. It doesn’t say much as it pummels opponents with enough force to send a dump truck flying.
Ultra Moon
This rowdy Pokémon boasts great physical strength. Many Trainers are also smitten by its lively character.
Ultra Sun
From the slight twitches of its bamboo leaf, it deduces its opponent’s movements. It’s eager to tussle but kindhearted toward its companions.
Moon
It boasts superb physical strength. Those who wish to become Pangoro’s Trainer have no choice but to converse with their fists.
Sun
It charges ahead and bashes its opponents like a berserker, uncaring about any hits it might take. Its arms are mighty enough to snap a telephone pole.
Y · Alpha Sapphire
Although it possesses a violent temperament, it won’t put up with bullying. It uses the leaf in its mouth to sense the movements of its enemies.
X · Omega Ruby
