Pokédex entries
Zarude
| Sword | Within dense forests, this Pokémon lives in a pack with others of its kind. It’s incredibly aggressive, and the other Pokémon of the forest fear it. |
|---|---|
| Shield | Once the vines on Zarude’s body tear off, they become nutrients in the soil. This helps the plants of the forest grow. |
Dada Form
| Sword | This Zarude left its pack to raise a human child. The cloth Zarude would wrap the child with has a comforting scent that calmed the child’s crying. |
|---|---|
| Shield | This Zarude’s special strength stems from its love and care for an orphaned human child that the Pokémon has raised since the child’s infancy. |
