Biology
Physiology
Granbull are purple bulldog-like Pokémon that are capable of standing upright. Their most notable feature is their particularly pronounced lower jaws. If eclipsed by its more promient lower jaws, Granbull also has two small fangs visible on its upper jaw. Granbull’s ears are flat and curved in surface, and their nose is black. They also have a black collar around their neck with two small white patterns on it, and two band-like black markings on their arms.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Granbull has notably powerful, pronounced, and prominient jaws, capable of immense crushing power, which Granbull uses to peform attacks such as Bite, Crunch, and the Elemental Fang trio. Granbull can Intimidate most Pokémon by opening its mouth wide to reveal its fangs.
Behavior
Despite appearing fierce-looking they are actually very timid, loyal and playful. The jaws are so heavy that the Pokémon have trouble keeping their heads up. Unless Granbull is startled, it will try not to bite indiscriminately. If attacked, Granbull will flail about to fend off its attacker.
