Pokédex Entries

Vaquerado deftly fashion lassos or bolas out of their fine but sturdy silk, and throw their chosen snare at fleeing prey with incredible skill. They are popular companions on large farms and ranches thanks to their ability to keep wandering Pokémon with their herds.


Ranchers and rustlers alike used to employ Vaquerado to protect or steal Pokémon many years ago. They had to be so precise and well-trained to do their jobs that today there are competitions held in honor of those times, challenging trainers and their Vaquerado to snare difficult targets in a certain amount of time.
