Bewear (Japanese: キテルグマ Kiteruguma) is a recurring wild Pokémon in the anime's Sun & Moon series. It appears to have appointed itself as Team Rocket's caretaker during their stay in the Alola region.

History

Ash and Pikachu first met Bewear in Alola to New Adventure! after they got lost in a forest chasing after a Grubbin. Ash and Pikachu greeted it with a smile, but panicked and ran off upon seeing Bewear destroying trees nearby in joy. Bewear eventually lost the two after Tapu Koko distracted it and it sighed sadly.

Bewear met Jessie, James, Meowth, and Wobbuffet in SM003, taking them away from battle and to its den in the forest. The following episode, after Jessie catches her Mimikyu, Bewear proceeds to give them some honey before heading off. A tribe of wild Pikipek and Trumbeak soon came and stole all of the Berries in Bewear's den, so Team Rocket agreed to not only catch the Pokémon, but return the Berries to Bewear out of gratitude for what it did for them.

Bewear has since been seen dragging Team Rocket away from a battle before they could be sent blasting off, even going as far as to perform seemingly impossible feats like running on water to rescue them during SM005 and jumping across rooftops in SM006.

In SM012, Team Rocket decided to use Bewear's den as their base of operations whilst in Alola.

Personality and characteristics

Bewear is a friendly and very hospitable Pokémon. After bringing Team Rocket into its den, it began sharing the food it gathered with them and their Pokémon, and allowed them to stay. Bewear is very protective of Team Rocket, but its rescues can be unreliable. In SM012, Bewear even "rescued" the trio just before they were going to defeat Ash and his Pokémon in a fair fight. Bewear's hospitality towards Team Rocket was also shown in SM011, where it was happy to lie and cuddle with them on a patch of grass. Its hospitality was so well taken by Team Rocket that Jessie even tried to share some malasadas with it, an act that she would almost never do.

As shown in SM012, Bewear likes to keep its den tidy, hefting large boulders above its head to clear them out from the area in front of its entrance. It also has enormous physical strength, as shown by its ninja-like movements when rescuing Team Rocket, and in SM012 when, among being presented a gift of malasadas, it almost strangled Jessie with joy.
