Baltoy (Japanese: ヤジロン Yajilon) is a dual-type Ground/Psychic Pokémon introduced in Generation III.

It evolves into Claydol starting at level 36.

Biology

Baltoy is a small Pokémon that resembles a tan figurine made out of clay or mud. There are arching, red markings over its eyes, which usually appear closed. A red stripe encircles its body, and forms a ring on its belly. It has flat appendages that resemble arms. A spike protrudes from the top of its head and another, smaller spike under its body acts as its foot. It moves by spinning on this single, pointed foot, and balance upright on it to sleep. Baltoy is usually found in ruins and old graveyards, where it congregates with its own kind and cries noisily. Old cave wall paintings depict it living with people in ancient times.

Major appearances

Baltoy debuted in Me, Myself and Time, under the ownership of Calista. It was first seen spinning around and heading off a cliff, being saved by Pikachu's Quick Attack. Later, it helped its future self by removing the rocks that were crushing it. It then used Rapid Spin in the middle of a wheel of drawings to reveal the true identity of a mysterious woman, who was actually a future Calista.

In It's Still Rocket Roll to Me!, Tate and Liza's four Baltoy use their Confusion to recreate weightlessness during a Pokémon battle, even though their main Pokémon already possessed the ability to float in midair. They later stopped Team Rocket from stealing a rocket ship with Tate and Max in tow.

In the original timeline of Arceus and the Jewel of Life, a hypnotized Damos commanded four Baltoy to attack Arceus with Shock Wave. When Ash and his friends traveled to the past to prevent this, Marcus, the one responsible for hypnotizing Damos, managed to use the Baltoy again to attack Arceus.

In Bucking the Treasure Trend!, a Baltoy is Buck's main Pokémon and partner in treasure-hunting. It has the ability to sense when treasure is near and would indicate this to Buck by spinning. Baltoy was also a very powerful battler, as it was able to defeat the Claydol that was guarding the treasure hidden near Lily of the Valley Island.

Minor appearances

A Trainer's Baltoy appeared in Making Battles in the Sand!.

Trivia

• No other Pokémon has the same type combination as Baltoy and its evolution.
• Baltoy is tied with Toedscool for the lowest base Attack stat of all Ground-type Pokémon.
• Baltoy may be considered a counterpart of Gulpin. Baltoy is exclusive to Pokémon HeartGold, while Gulpin is exclusive to Pokémon SoulSilver, with both Pokémon found during a mass outbreak in the same locations in their respective versions. Additionally, both can be snagged as Shadow Pokémon in Pokémon XD at the Cipher Lab, with both Pokémon having the same Shadow move, Shadow Blitz.
• Despite being a gender unknown Pokémon, Baltoy's PokéPark Pad entry in PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure refers to it using masculine pronouns. The same is true for Claydol.

Origin

Baltoy appears to be based on a balancing toy with the design of a 遮光器土偶 Shakōki-dogū—a "spaceman" clay figurine from the Jōmon period of Japanese history. It also seems to resemble Hopi Kachina figures.

Name origin

Baltoy may be derived from balancing toy.

Yajilon may be derived from 弥次郎兵衛 yajirobē (balancing toy).
