GumshoosCrown Zenith #118 Pokémon Card

Gumshoos, the Stakeout Pokémon, is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VII, native to the Alola region. It is the evolved form of Yungoos, known for its diligent and patient nature, often staking out its prey for extended periods. This behavior is reflected in its design, which resembles a mongoose or a detective, with its stern expression and observant posture. Gumshoos primarily preys on smaller Pokémon, with Rattata being a particular favorite, as its Pokédex entry suggests. In the Pokémon games, Gumshoos often appears in areas where it can meticulously hunt, such as routes and caves. Its ability, Stakeout, further emphasizes its hunting prowess by dealing increased damage to Pokémon that have just switched in. In the anime, Gumshoos has been depicted as a reliable and persistent Pokémon, sometimes assisting trainers or local authorities in solving mysteries. Its unique appearance and behavioral traits have made it a memorable addition to the Pokémon world, symbolizing perseverance and strategic hunting.
