Wooloo is an {{wp|sheep|ovine}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a thick coat of white wool that makes it look spherical. Its small, black head pokes out of the front of the wool, along with two short horns. Wooloo's eyes have yellow sclerae, black irises, and white, horizontal pupils. Two large ears are visible behind gray strings of wool that resemble braided pigtails. Its hooved legs are short and mostly hidden by the wool, along with a tail that is barely visible on its rear end.

Wooloo have an extremely fluffy body which can serve as a cushion and help them survive without injuries, even when falling off a cliff. Its fur grows continuously, being able to fully grow back in just three months after it is completely shaved. The fur is very popular in [[Galar]], being used for clothing, carpets, very strong cloth, and specialty product. If its fur grows too long, Wooloo will be unable to move. Wooloo live in herds, mimicking the actions of their herd leader or Trainer. They can escape from enemies by simply rolling away due to disliking conflict.<ref>[https://swordshield.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon-galar-region/wooloo/ Wooloo | Official Website | Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield]</ref> {{p|Yamper}} is used to herd Wooloo.
