Pokédex Entries

Ponderan sits perfectly still, no matter what is going on around it, to concentrate on its deepest thoughts. Even though it looks like a statue it can move its arms, but never does so unless it absolutely must.

Ponderan is slow to respond to battle situations. When it finally decides it is ready to act, however, its deep focus and careful analysis allow it to attack with devastating power.

Name Origin

ponder + Auguste Rodin, sculptor of "The Thinker"
