Evolution chart
Pokédex entries
Sword | Most of its body has the same composition as coal. Fittingly, this Pokémon was first discovered in coal mines about 400 years ago. |
---|---|
Shield | It can race around like a unicycle, even on rough, rocky terrain. Burning coal sustains it. |
Scarlet | On sunny days, Rolycoly will come out onto grassy plains and roll around. Then it will eat the grass that gets tangled in its wheel-like leg. |
Violet | Chunks of the surface of this Pokémon’s body that have grown old and flaked off have long been used for fuel as an alternative to coal. |
