[[File:VullabyNest.png|250px|left|thumb|A Mandibuzz caring for a {{p|Vullaby}}]] | |||
Mandibuzz is a vulture-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, particularly resembling a turkey vulture. It has a bare, pink head and neck, along with a notched black beak and red eyes. There are black eyelashes or eyeliner-like markings above its eyes. A long brown tuft with a bone in the middle extends from the back of its head. It has a tan ruff at the base of its neck, and shaggy darker brown wings with gray tips. Mandibuzz also has shaggy brown tail feathers. Its pink feet have black talons. It has decorated itself with bones — a jaw with sharp teeth — to form a skirt. When Mandibuzz sits on its [[Vullaby]] chick within its nest, Mandibuzz's bony skirt combines with the bones around Vullaby's lower body to form an upside-down skull with sharp teeth.<ref name=ND205/> Different types of bones fall in and out of use as if there were fashion trends among Mandibuzz. | Mandibuzz is a vulture-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, particularly resembling a turkey vulture.

Mandibuzz lives in nests made from the bones it finds. Weakened prey such as {{p|Cubone}} is dragged back to this nest after Mandibuzz swoops down on it from the sky. Mandibuzz is a female-only species, although it dresses attractively in bones as a fruitless attempt to attract mates. | Mandibuzz lives in nests made from the bones it finds, though they have also been seen using more traditional nests, such as in the [[Terarium]].

Mandibuzz (Japanese: バルジーナ Vulgina) is a dual-type Dark/Flying Pokémon introduced in Generation V.
It evolves from Vullaby starting at level 54.
Biology
Mandibuzz is a vulture-like Pokémon, particularly resembling a turkey vulture. It has a bare, pink head and neck, along with a notched black beak and red eyes. There are black eyelashes or eyeliner-like markings above its eyes. A long brown tuft with a bone in the middle extends from the back of its head. It has a tan ruff at the base of its neck, and shaggy darker brown wings with gray tips. Mandibuzz also has shaggy brown tail feathers. Its pink feet have black talons. It has decorated itself with bones — a jaw with sharp teeth — to form a skirt. When Mandibuzz sits on its Vullaby chick within its nest, Mandibuzz's bony skirt combines with the bones around Vullaby's lower body to form an upside-down skull with sharp teeth.[1] Different types of bones fall in and out of use as if there were fashion trends among Mandibuzz.
Mandibuzz lives in nests made from the bones it finds, though they have also been seen using more traditional nests, such as in the Terarium. Weakened prey such as Cubone is dragged back to this nest after Mandibuzz swoops down on it from the sky. Mandibuzz is a female-only species, although it dresses attractively in bones as a fruitless attempt to attract mates.
Evolution
Mandibuzz evolves from Vullaby.

Major appearances
Two Mandibuzz made their main series debut in Meowth's Scrafty Tactics!. One of the Mandibuzz had eaten the other's food without her permission, causing her to get kicked out of the nest. As a result, she was forced to take the den belonging to a wild Scrafty. However, she was later defeated by Scraggy's newly learned High Jump Kick, allowing Scrafty to reclaim its den.
In Scraggy and the Demanding Gothita!, Katharine offered a Mandibuzz to trade Ash for his Scraggy. She was later used in a battle against Tepig, which she lost.

Trivia
- Despite Special Attack being its lowest stat, Mandibuzz awards Special Attack EVs when defeated.
- Mandibuzz and its pre-evolution were designed by James Turner. According to interviews with Ken Sugimori in Nintendo Dream, Vullaby and Mandibuzz were added late into the development of Pokémon Black and White, and despite the fact that there were "too many bird Pokémon already", their designs were approved.[1]
- Mandibuzz and Vullaby can be seen as counterparts to Braviary and Rufflet. Mandibuzz and Braviary share a base stat total of 510, evolve from their pre-evolved forms starting at level 54, and are both part Flying. Mandibuzz and Vullaby are exclusive to Black, Black 2, Moon, Ultra Moon, and Shield, while Braviary and Rufflet are exclusive to White, White 2, Sun, Ultra Sun, and Sword. Whereas Mandibuzz and Vullaby can only be female, Braviary and Rufflet can only be male.
Origin
Mandibuzz may be based on an Old World vulture, most closely resembling a lappet-faced vulture with the prominent ruff of a white-rumped vulture. Its design also bears resemblance to stereotypical "savages", barbarians, or cavemen. The row of teeth around its waist resembles an apron.
Name origin
Mandibuzz may be a combination of mandible or mandil (Spanish for apron) and buzzard.
Vulgina may be a combination of vulture or vulgar and regina (Latin and Italian for queen).
