Gender differences

Baltoy is genderless

Special abilities

Behavior

Baltoy moves while spinning around on its one foot. As soon as it spots others of its kind, Baltoy congregates with them and then begins crying noisily in unison. This Pokémon sleeps while cleverly balancing itself on its one foot.

Habitat

Diet

In the anime

Baltoy first appeared in Me, Myself and Time, under the ownership of a girl named Calista.

In It's Still Rocket Roll to Me, Tate and Liza were using Baltoy's Confusion to recreate weightlessness during a Pokémon Battle, even though their main Pokémon already possess the ability to float in mid-air. Later in that same episode, these Clay Doll Pokémon stopped Team Rocket from stealing the rocketship.

Trivia

• To this day, no game sprites, anime episode, or TCG cards show Baltoy with its eyes open.

Origin

Its design is similar to the 遮光器土偶 shakōkidogū - a "spaceman" clay figurine from the Jōmon period of Japanese history.

Name origin

Baltoy's name appears to be a portmanteau of balance and toy. Yajilon is an abbreviation of 弥次郎兵衛 yajirobe'e, balancing toy.

In other languages
