Bronzong(JP) is a species of Pokémon in the series of the same name. It is a Steel/Psychic type and the evolved form of Bronzor.

Physiology & Behavior[]

Bronzong is a large Pokémon resembling a blue-green bell with two arms coming out of its sides. It has a hollow body and a yoke attached at the top. Its face can be best described as being a "Totem Pole" design; Bronzong has two round, red eyes with blue-green irises and a rectangular mouth with one visible row of square teeth. It also has several darker, rectangular markings on its body.

When angered, Bronzong lets out a warning cry that rings out like the tolling of a bell. It can summon rain clouds, which earned it the nickname "bringer of plentiful harvests" and led to some referring to it as a deity. The first known Bronzong was dug up at a construction site. Many scientists believe the Bronzong found in Galar originated from a different region after researching the pattern on its body. Some Bronzong can sleep up to 2,000 years, with one such case leading to quite the media story when one was discovered at a construction site. Bronzong typically lives in ruins and mountain ranges.

Appearances[]

In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, Bronzong is Lucian's signature Pokémon.

In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness, Bronzong, together with Hitmonlee and Regigigas, are the statues that came alive to battle the player in Aegis Cave.
