Stakataka(JP) is is a species of Pokémon in the series of the same name. It is a Rock/Steel Pokémon introduced in the seventh generation in Pokémon Ultra Moon. It is an Ultra Beast with the code name as UB Assembly (UB: Lay in Japan).
Physiology and Behavior[]
Stakataka is an Ultra Beast composed of many dark gray, stone lifeforms stacked together to form a four-sided tower with a spindly leg on each corner. The stones that form the legs and the top corners are slightly darker. When at rest, its legs fit into the corners of the structure. Its lighter gray stones have glowing blue lines on their sides, which are visible along its edges and underside. Each stone square has a black underside with a circular, glowing blue eye in the center. These eyes will turn red whenever angered or fighting.
A single Stakataka comprises of almost 150 individual lifeforms. Stakataka can plant itself on the ground to disguise itself or when sleeping. It can freely manipulate the stone lifeforms on its body to form legs and open up to let attacks through or trap foes inside it. Stakataka's legs are strong enough to break a tree in half. Like all Ultra Beasts, it stores an energy within its body similar to the aura seen around Totem Pokémon. This energy is called Z-Power. As seen in the anime, Stakataka hates having anything on top of itself and will violently try to shake the object off. However, if someone can resist the shaking and successfully ride it, then it will calm down and they'll gain Stakataka's respect.
Like Blacephalon, Stakataka's homeworld is one of the only worlds which is not seen and cannot be visited riding Solgaleo or Lunala in a Ultra Warp Ride.

Trivia[]
- Stakataka is the heaviest Rock-type Pokémon.
- Stakataka's Pokédex height seemingly refers to its size while at rest, as seen in Pokémon Refresh and the anime. When comparing sizes in Pokémon HOME, Stakataka standing on its legs is shown to be nearly twice as tall as Guzzlord, which is also listed as having a height of 18'01" (5.5 m).
