Garbodor (Japanese: ダストダス Dustdas) is a Poison-type Pokémon.

It evolves from Trubbish starting at level 36.

Biology

Physiology

Garbodor are Pokémon that have the appearance of a pile of trash spilling out of a large, torn-open garbage bag. They have round, lumpy bodies that are mostly tan colored with blue and pink lumps. Their heads have the appearance of the tied end of a garbage bag that has been ripped open and trails down like a cape. They have two appendages that look like clumps of garbage coming from their head, which resemble pigtails or ears. Their large, round eyes have small pupils, and when they open their mouths, their large, triangular teeth can be seen. Garbodor have two rather long arms made of garbage that are held together with piping, and fingers also made up of piping material. They have one finger on their left hand, and three on the other. They also have flat, dumpy feet.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Garbodor is able to spray poisonous gas and filth from its fingertips, but only from its right hand. It also finishes off opponents by subduing them with its left arm and spewing an awful-smelling toxic gas from its mouth.

Trivia

  • Garbodor, along with its pre-evolution Trubbish are the only pure Poison-type Pokémon found in Generation V.
  • Garbodor is the only pure Poison-type Pokémon that is able to learn Psychic.
  • Garbodor is the only Pokémon that can have the Weak Armor Ability outside of the Dream World.
  • Garbodor is one of four Pokémon that learns Stockpile, but only one of either Swallow or Spit Up. The other three are Qwilfish, Munchlax, and Trubbish.
  • Garbodor shares similar traits to Muk and Weezing. All three Pokémon are pure Poison types with a single pre-evolution, roughly the same base stat totals and evolution levels, and appear to be based of a certain pollution; Garbodor being land pollution.

Origin

Garbodor is based on a garbage bag that is bursting with garbage. It may also have been inspired by garbage rats considering the ear-like appendages atop its head. Garbodor may also be based on the imagined fear that heavy pollution, caused by the leakage or improper disposal of radioactive waste may result in the creation of new and undesirable life.

Name origin

Garbodor is a combination of garbage and odor.

Dustdas may be a combination of dust and 出す dasu (to exert or produce). It may also involve the phrase "dust to dust," which is apart of, "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust," a metaphor for finality in death.
