Bonsly (Japanese: ウソハチ Usohachi) is a Rock-type baby Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.
It evolves into Sudowoodo when leveled up while knowing Mimic.
Biology
Bonsly is a round, brown Pokémon with the top of its head resembling a club (♣). A rim goes around the middle of its body. There are three yellow spots on its face, two of which surround its eyes, which are small black dots. It has short legs and toeless feet. Bonsly also has a hole on its rear similar to the draining hole of a flowerpot. It is often mistaken for a Grass-type, but its body is biologically closer to stone.
Bonsly is a good mimic, making it often mistaken for a real bonsai tree, though it can easily stand out in a dry environment that lacks greenery. As its green spheres dry out, their dull luster increases. It can remain in the same spot for a long time. It also has a habit of crying, not because it is sad or needing attention, but rather it is due to excess moisture in its body. As it cries, it expels both sweat and tears from its eyes; Bonsly sweat tastes a little salty, while the tears are slightly bitter. It dies if it gets too damp with this moisture. This habit also gets enemies to let their guards down. It prefers dry, rock-strewn areas, but it isn't uncommon to see one in a garden. As suggested by Brock's Bonsly, a very young Bonsly needs to be bottle-fed but can eat solid food when it matures.
Evolution
Bonsly evolves into Sudowoodo.
(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to Game data→Evolution data.)
Game data
NPC appearances
- Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness: A Trainer at ONBS has lost their Bonsly. It appears at the S.S. Libra, but runs away upon being approached. Returning Bonsly to its Trainer gains the reward of the Bonsly Bingo Sheet. This begins with a Bonsly with Rock Slide, and allowed players to experience battling with it long before the official release of Diamond and Pearl.
- Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Upon completion of all the type-based mazes at the Dojo, Makuhita will award a statue of Bonsly that is displayed outside the rescue base.

Other appearances
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Bonsly appears in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as a Poké Ball Pokémon. Once released, characters can pick it up and throw it at other players. Due to its weight, characters holding it can only move very slowly and it can't be thrown very far, but a direct hit does massive damage and can result in a knockout within two hits (at 0% damage).
Trophy information
"A Bonsai Pokémon. It looks like a plant, but history reveals it is actually a Rock-type. Its best move among all its specialty moves is Fake Tears. As it grows, it will be skilled at using Mimic, which allows it to copy an opponent's previous move. If leveled up under certain conditions, it evolves into Sudowoodo."
Trivia
- Bonsly has the lowest base Special Attack stat of any Pokémon, tied with Shuckle, Feebas, and Alolan Sandshrew.
- Bonsly's English name was revealed on June 16, 2005, which was still before Pokémon Diamond and Pearl were released in Japan.
- Bonsly is the only Pokémon that is usable in-game by a player during the generation before its release, as it was on the Battle Bingo Bonsly Card in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness.
- Both Bonsly and Munchlax had their cries revealed at the same time, in Pokémon XD, being the first Generation IV Pokémon to receive this treatment.
- In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Bonsly's trophy information states it first appeared in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl whereas it appeared previously in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness and Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team. This is a similar case with Weavile, Munchlax, Togepi and Lucario.
Origin
Bonsly seems to be based on a bonsai tree (miniature trees grown inside small pots) and petrified wood (plants that have become fossilized over time). This would explain its pure Rock type since all of the organic material in petrified wood is replaced with minerals. It is also reminiscent of a toddler since its flowerpot resembles a diaper and it tends to cry a lot. It may also be based on the concept of mimicry.
Name origin
Bonsly may be a combination of bonsai and sly or lie.
Usohachi may be a combination of 嘘 uso (lie) or 嘘っ八 usoppachi (downright lie) and 鉢 hachi (flowerpot).
