Read more ↓Garbodor, the Trash Heap Pokémon, is a Poison-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V. It is the evolved form of Trubbish, a small Pokémon that resembles a trash bag. Garbodor itself is a large, grotesque Pokémon composed entirely of various forms of refuse and industrial waste, with a body that appears to be a solidified mass of garbage. Its arms are made of discarded pipes, and its overall appearance emphasizes its connection to pollution and waste. Garbodor's natural habitat is typically found in urban areas, landfills, and polluted environments where it can consume and absorb trash. Its diet consists exclusively of garbage, which it processes internally, converting it into a potent poison. In the Pokémon games, Garbodor often serves as a challenging opponent due to its robust Poison typing and often high defensive stats. In the anime, Garbodor has made several appearances, typically depicting its role as a powerful, albeit somewhat repulsive, Pokémon that highlights environmental themes. Its unique design and origin story make it a memorable Pokémon, representing the consequences of human wastefulness and the planet's ability to adapt, even in the most unconventional ways. Despite its unappealing nature, Garbodor has garnered a dedicated fanbase for its unique concept and battle utility.
