Biology

Physiology

Mandibuzz is a birdlike Pokémon that resembles a vulture or buzzard. Her head and neck are featherless and pink, with a gray beak, while her body is covered in dingy brown ruffled feathers. She has slightly squinted eyes with dark eye-shadow and red pupils, and she appears to be grinning mischievously, giving her a sinister look. She has a ponytail-like tuft of feathers atop her head, adorned with a small bone. She has a sandy brown ruff of feathers around her neck, and a skirt made of bones around her waist. Her legs and talons are pinkish with sharp black claws.

Mandibuzz is a female-only species of Pokémon.

Evolution

Mandibuzz is the evolved form of Vullaby as of level 54.

• Katharine's Mandibuzz
• Team Plasma's Mandibuzz (Generations)

Trivia

• No trainer in the Generation V games uses a Mandibuzz, as a result, you must evolve Vullaby yourself or get a Mandibuzz in a trade if you want to get Mandibuzz for your Pokédex.
• Mandibuzz appears in PokéPark 2: Wonders Beyond, where you have to give her 30 Everflames to access Thundurus' shrine.
• Mandibuzz and its pre-evolution, Vullaby, are the only Dark-type Pokémon with a 100% female gender ratio.
• Mandibuzz's "apron" is actually a jaw.

Origin

Mandibuzz is based on a vulture. As opposed to Braviary's influence being on the modern nation of America, with some influences from pre-historic America, Mandibuzz seems to be based off barbarians or a "cavewoman". Its behavior and gender ratio could be inspired from harpies.

Etymology

The "Buzz" part in the name stands for "Buzzard", and "Mandi" from "Mandible", the name of the (human) lower jawbone, which she appears to be wearing.
