Mudsdale

Mudsdale is a Ground type Pokémon introduced in Generation 7.

Mudsdale is known for its powerful body as well as its emotional fortitude, which keeps it from being agitated by anything. It never cries out, no matter what kind of trouble it’s in, and it defeats its opponents with a single powerful blow. Its legs are coated in protective mud, and the weight of this coating increases the force of its kicks.

When Mudsdale gallops in earnest, the power of each hoof-clop can dig out huge holes, even in asphalt. Mudsdale is forbidden to run on some of Alola’s public roads.

Pokédex entries

Sun It spits a mud that provides resistance to both wind and rain, so the walls of old houses were often coated with it.
Moon Its heavy, mud-covered kicks are its best means of attack, and it can reduce large trucks to scrap without breaking a sweat.
Ultra Sun It remains calm and unmoving no matter the situation. It mixes dirt with the saliva in its mouth to make a special kind of mud.
Ultra Moon It can trudge mountain roads without rest for three days and three nights, all the while dragging a 10-ton load.
Sword Mud that hardens around a Mudsdale’s legs sets harder than stone. It’s so hard that it allows this Pokémon to scrap a truck with a single kick.
Shield Mudsdale has so much stamina that it could carry over 10 tons across the Galar region without rest or sleep.
Scarlet This Pokémon has been treasured not just for its physical labor but also because it produces high-quality mud used for making pottery.
Violet Its legs are fortified with mud and harder than stone, and they can reduce a large truck to scrap with one kick.
