(Japanese: シンボラー Shinbora) is a dual-type Psychic/Flying Pokémon introduced in Generation V.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

Biology

Physiology

Shinbora is a spherical Pokémon, possessing two cyan eyes, with a third on an Unown-like appendage on top of its head. Shinbora has four wing-like growths around its body, and two small spikes at its base.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Shinbora possesses psychic powers, which it uses to defend its territory from intruders.

Behavior

A Shinbora will use its psychic powers to attack anyone who invades its territory. Due to it retaining memories from when it guarded an ancient city, it apparently flies along the same route constantly.

Habitat

In the past, Shinbora guarded an ancient city. Due to the fact that today they are solely found in a desert region, this may mean that the ancient city used to be located there.
