Y
Alpha Sapphire
Their sturdy tusks will stay sharp even if used to cut steel beams. These Pokémon are covered in hard armor.
Sword Its resilient tusks are its pride and joy. It licks up dirt to take in the minerals it needs to keep its tusks in top condition.
Shield While usually kindhearted, it can be terrifying if angered. Tusks that can slice through steel beams are how Haxorus deals with its adversaries.
Scarlet This Pokémon nests in caves and abandoned mines. It is docile, but it will become incredibly angry if its tusks are touched, so beware.
Violet It overwhelms enemies with its prized tusks, which are sharp enough to cut through a metal transmission tower in one strike.
