Burcodion

The Accordion Pokémon

Fighting

Now a large badger with an impressive body, it carries an accordion embedded on its back. It hops around, opening and closing its arms to play the instrument. It snickers, self aware but indifferent to its weight gain. Its body adapted to playing for hours on end by keeping its body tilted continuously, it forces the centre of gravity to change, causing each jump to require less and less energy, similar to Tzamfish. It accompanies its band members to parties within the forest, sneaking in a snack or two while playing, no one really bats an eye. It gives unlimited "bear" hugs to Tzamfish and Kobsajder, who it loves unconditionally.

AbilitiesAccordion Duet / Heavy Metal

Accordion Duet: Upon entering the field, Burcodion plays its accordion, invoking the Pokémon after it from the Pokémon party. This ability turns a single battle into a double battle, forcing both the player and the enemy to send out a second Pokémon. If the second Pokémon sent out is a member of its trio (with Tzamfish and Kobsajder), then both Pokémon will get a stat boost in Defence.

Note: this ability is player-only and requires a custom battle preset. NPCs are given a secondary ability instead — only the player can use the duo ability.
