A Nuzleaf from Turning Over a Nuzleaf
A Nuzleaf from Turning Over a Nuzleaf

Nuzleaf first appeared in Turning Over a Nuzleaf. When Pikachu, Treecko, Torchic, Mudkip, Silcoon, Lotad and Corphish get separated from Ash, May, Brock and Max and got lost in a forest, these wily Pokémon caused trouble for them.

A colony of Seedot and Nuzleaf appeared in Leave it to Brocko!. One of the Nuzleaf got separated from its colony and Brock and Sudowoodo had to bring it home before Team Rocket could steal it. This Nuzleaf also seemed to be fast friends with Brock's Sudowoodo, even when Sudowoodo was a Bonsly.

Gardenia owns a Nuzleaf. When she was traveling in the Eterna Forest, it brought her a note summoning her back to the Gym.

Trivia

Origin

Nuzleaf is probably based on an acorn and 天狗 Tengu, tricky Japanese goblins who are known for their long noses, cruel tricks, and ability to read minds.

Name origin

Nuzleaf's name may be a combination of nuzzle or nose and leaf. Its Japanese name is literally 巨の鼻 konohana, big nose, but more formally seems to be a combination of 木の葉 konoha, leaves, and 鼻 hana, nose or 花 hana, flower. Konohana may also be この 花 kono hana, this flower.
