Pokedex Entries

Gold

Although it always pretends to be a tree, its composi tion appears to be closer to a rock than a plant.

Silver

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

Crystal

If a tree branch shakes when there is no wind, it's a SUDOWOODO, not a tree. It hides from the rain.

Ruby

SUDOWOODO camouflages itself as a tree to avoid being attacked by enemies. However, because the forelegs remain green throughout the year, the POKéMON is easily identified as a fake during the winter.

Emerald

It mimics a tree to avoid being attacked by enemies. But since its forelegs remain green throughout the year, it is easily identified as a fake in the winter.
