It is known for its distinctive appearance, resembling a discarded trash bag with large, expressive eyes and ear-like protrusions. Trubbish evolves into Garbodor starting at level 36. Its natural habitat is often found in unsanitary areas, such as landfills, garbage dumps, and neglected urban spaces, where it thrives amidst discarded waste. According to Pokédex entries, Trubbish was created when a plastic bag filled with garbage underwent a chemical reaction, giving it life. Its diet consists of various forms of trash, which it consumes to grow and evolve. In the games, Trubbish is often encountered in early routes and industrial areas, serving as a common Poison-type Pokémon that can be useful for status conditions. In the anime, it has been featured in episodes highlighting environmental themes and the consequences of pollution. Culturally, Trubbish serves as a reminder of human waste and its impact on the environment, embodying a unique blend of revulsion and endearment for its quirky design. Its evolution, Garbodor, further emphasizes this theme, becoming a larger and more formidable pile of refuse.
