Yungoos

Yungoos is a Normal type Pokémon introduced in Generation 7.

Yungoos is a big eater that is never satisfied. The majority of its long body is given over to its stomach, and its digestion is swift, so it’s always hungry. It has strong fangs, so it can crush and consume the hardest of objects.

Yungoos changes

Pokédex entries

Sun With its sharp fangs, it will bite anything. It did not originally live in Alola but was imported from another region.
Moon It wanders around in a never-ending search for food. At dusk, it collapses from exhaustion and falls asleep on the spot.
Ultra Sun Its stomach takes up most of its long torso. It’s a big eater, so the amount Trainers have to spend on its food is no laughing matter.
Ultra Moon Although it will eat anything, it prefers fresh living things, so it marches down streets in search of prey.
Scarlet Its stomach fills most of its torso. It wanders the same path every day, searching for fresh food.
Violet It spends its waking hours searching endlessly for food. When Yungoos is hungry, its ferocity gains a certain edge.
