Biology
Pangoro is a large bipedal Pokémon, resembling a humanoid panda bear. It has a stocky build with a big round belly, short legs and long arms with big paws, which are often balled into fists. Its head and belly are covered in thick white fur, while its lower body, chest arms and back are covered in equally thick but dark grey fur. A long fringe of this dark grey fur hangs down behind his back that, in combination with the rest of the dark-furred pattern, gives the impression that Pangoro is wearing a longcoat and trousers. Pangoro's three-fingered paws have shorter fur a darker shade of grey than the overcoat and are tipped with vicious black claws. Its face tapers down to a snout and its white color contrasts with its black ears and nose as well as the two semi-circles of black fur under its brow that render Pangoro's eyes indistinguishable. Pangoro likes to carry a thin leaved shoot in its mouth, which has prominent lower fangs.

Trivia
Origin
Pangoro is based on a giant panda. Considering how its pre-evolution needs to be around Dark-type Pokemon as a prerequisite for its evolution, its hot blooded, belligerent, yet virtuous attitude, and features such as a coat like cape and chewing stick, Pangoro also appears to draw inspiration from banchō, Japanese juvenile delinquent leaders. The method of evolution may imply that the pure Fighting-type Pancham acquired its Dark type after evolution due to being led astray by a "bad influence". Its shiny form could be a reference to the Qinling panda, whose coloring tends to be more brown than black.
Name origin
Pangoro and Goronda may be a combination of ごろつき gorotsuki (rogue), ごろごろ gorogoro (rumbling sound), and panda.
