KomalaJourney Together #129 Pokémon Card

Komala, the Drowsing Pokémon, is a Normal-type creature first introduced in Generation VII, native to the Alola region. This endearing koala-like Pokémon is renowned for its perpetual state of slumber, a characteristic that defines its entire existence. It is said that Komala is born sleeping and never wakes up, even when eating or battling. Its diet consists exclusively of specific leaves that contain a potent poison, which only Komala's unique digestive system can break down, turning the toxins into nutrients. This continuous sleep is attributed to a special log that it clings to, which is believed to be essential for its well-being. Komala does not evolve from or into any other Pokémon, making it a standalone species. In the games, its Comatose Ability prevents it from being afflicted by any status condition other than sleep, perfectly reflecting its lore. Komala has made appearances in the Pokémon anime, often depicted in its characteristic sleepy state, highlighting its gentle and somewhat mysterious nature. Its unique biological traits and adorable appearance have made it a beloved figure among fans, symbolizing tranquility and the wonders of nature's adaptations.
