Komala (ネッコアラ Nekkoara) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VII.

Biology

Physiology

Komala is a Pokémon with a bluish-gray fur, with excess fur present on the neck. Its cheeks, tail and eyebrows are colored white. Komala has a large black nose, large ears ,and black nails on its paws. Komala's underside is a light gray. The Pokémon is holding a cylindrical, brown log in the shape of a pillow.

Behavior

This Pokémon is always asleep as its Pokédex entry in Pokémon Sun says, its attacking is nothing but it tossing and turning in its dreams. According to Principal Oak in the anime episode SM056: Let Sleeping Pokémon Lie!, when a Komala loses its log it will roll around uncomfortably in its sleep. It also reacts and changes expressions on its face in accordance to everywhere they dream about.

A Komala is also picky about the log it receives.

Natural abilities

Komala's saliva, when watered down, is able to cure sickness and insomnia in people. The anime episode SM056: Let Sleeping Pokémon Lie! reveals that Komala is also immune sleep-based moves, such as Jigglypuff's sleeping song due to its sleep-like state.

Pokédex entries

Sun

Moon
The log it holds was given to it by its parents at birth. It has also been known to cling to the arm of a friendly Trainer.
Ultra Sun
It stays asleep from the moment it's born. When it falls into a deep sleep, it stops moving altogether.
Ultra Moon
It remains asleep from birth to death as a result of the sedative properties of the leaves that form its diet.
