Flavor Text

Generation 5
Black, White, Black 2, White 2

To avoid being attacked, it does nothing but mimic a tree. It hates water and flees from rain.

Generation 6
X

Although it always pretends to be a tree, its composition appears more similar to rock than to vegetation.

Y

It disguises itself as a tree to avoid attack. It hates water, so it will disappear if it starts raining.

Omega Ruby, Alpha Sapphire

Sudowoodo camouflages itself as a tree to avoid being attacked by enemies. However, because its hands remain green throughout the year, the Pokémon is easily identified as a fake during the winter.

Generation 7
Sun

To avoid attack, it mimics a tree. It will run off if splashed with water, which it hates.

Moon

Apparently, the larger the green parts of this Pokémon, the more collectors value it. It’s a particular favorite among elderly people.

Ultra Sun

It’s so popular with the elderly that there’s a magazine devoted to this Pokémon. Fans obsess over the particular length and angle of its arms.

Ultra Moon

The result of its holding the same pose all the time is arms that have become supple yet strong.
