Pokédex entries

Sword	It digs up the ground with its trunk. It’s also very strong, being able to carry loads of over five tons without any problem at all.
Shield	If a job requires serious strength, this Pokémon will excel at it. Its copper body tarnishes in the rain, turning a vibrant green color.
Scarlet	Using the pointy tip of its trunk, it carves off chunks of hard rocks to eat. It is very docile and helps people with physical labor.
Violet	Cufant can lift loads weighing five tons. In the mornings, it heads into caves with its herd, in search of the ore on which these Pokémon feed.
