Nuzleaf(JP) is a species of Pokémon in the series of the same name. It is a Grass/Dark Pokémon that made its first appearance in the third generation games Ruby and Sapphire. It evolves from Seedot and into Shiftry.

Physiology and Behaviour[]

Nuzleaf is a bipedal plant Pokémon with a single green leaf atop its head. The leaf is smaller on the female. This Pokémon is mostly brown with a beige mask marking on its face. Its bulky thighs are also beige and have thin striations, and there are what appear to be two nipples on its chest. It has thin arms with mitten-like hands. If its long, pointed nose is grabbed, Nuzleaf will lose its power. The nose serves functions as a sensory.

Using the leaf on its head as a flute, it makes music with leaves that create a sense of unease in people. However, it can also play comforting melodies. Nuzleaf lives in tropical forests and is skilled at climbing, but it will come out of the forest to frighten people. Nuzleaf uses a sound similar to a grass tune to warn wandering intruders.
