Roggenrola (Japanese: ダンゴロ, HepburnDangoro) (rah-gen-ROH-lah[1]) is a Rock-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V.

Biology[]

Physiology[]

Roggenrola is a rocky, roughly spherical Pokémon that resembles a geode. It has with a single yellow hexagonal ear, which is often mistaken for an eye. It is mainly dark cobalt-blue in color. It has a brown rock protruding from the top of its head, and its feet are the same color.

Behavior[]

Being compressed underground, Roggenrola's body is as hard as steel. Because its ear is placed in front of it, Roggenrola always wander in the path of the sound that is coming in front of it. However, it has a tendency to panic and topple over if any sound it hears ceases.

Many of years ago, Roggenrola was discovered during a massive earthquake. It often competes with Geodude and Carbink in a test of body endurance, seeing which species has the sturdiest body.

Roggenrola's body is as hard as steel and will lose its firmness if exposed to water for a while. If it detects sound, Roggenrola will move. Its inner core gives off heat and is warm enough to be touched.

Evolution[]

Roggenrola evolves into Boldore at level 25, and then to Gigalith via trade.
