Timburr is a gray bipedal Pokémon with a dark purple nose and dark-gray oval shaped eyes. It has bulbous protrusions extending from the front and lower parts of its head. Pink, vein-like bulges are present on the back of its head. Similar pink bands adorn its shoulders and thighs. It always carries squared logs and use them to fight with. When it can easily lift a heavy block of timber, it is close to evolving. Timburr is usually found near construction sites helping construction workers.
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity: The Timburr Brothers are major characters in the game. Their boss Gurdurr was refusing to help due to past history where a customer refused to pay for the work and tore it down but after a battle with the player and partner where Gurdurr was defeated, they helped convince Gurdurr and they agreed to help.
