Tofurang is a Poison-type Pokémon.

It evolves from Tonemy starting from level 20.

Tofurang has a Nuclear-type variant.

Pokédex Entry

Pokédex entry Unable to fly or move swiftly like TONEMY, TOFURANG instead catch their prey by exhaling a poison gas that makes Pokémon sluggish.

Biology

Physiology

Tofurang is a large, purple, quadrupedal creature with a huge mouth equipped with sharp fangs. It has two small, useless wings on its head above its eyes, and large nostrils. It has a ridge of brown fur running all down its back, and a purple, furry tail. Its front and rear legs are tipped with blunt white claws.

Gender Differences

None.

Special Abilities

Tofurang is big and slow, but has a bite powerful enough to crush rock. Like its previous stage, it is also poisonous, and can exhale a poison gas that immediately incapacitates its prey. Its eyesight is not great but it has a keen sense of smell which helps it navigate and track down food in the dark.

Behavior

They are lazy Pokémon that will sit in silence for hours until their unsuspecting prey walks by. However, when raised by a trainer they are strong and fierce in battle.

Habitat

Tofurang dwell deep within cave systems and generally avoid people, which is just as well, because they are easily big enough to eat a person if they wanted to.
