Type: Normal

Skwovet is a small, squirrel-like Pokémon with a round body.
Its fur is primarily a light brown color, with a lighter beige coloration on its cheeks and belly.

It tends to be somewhat timid but is quite social, often found in groups.

In Battle:

Skwovet is known for its resilience rather than offensive power.
It can learn moves like Tackle, Bite, and Stuff Cheeks, which utilizes its berry-hoarding nature.
Its Cheek Pouch ability can be strategically used in battle to restore HP, making it unexpectedly durable.
As a Normal-type, it is only weak against Fighting-type moves and has no resistances but is immune to Ghost-type moves.

Evolution:

Skwovet evolves into Greedent starting at level 24, gaining a more robust physique and enhanced berry-storing capabilities.

Interesting Facts:
