It evolves from Kubfu when trained in one of the Towers of Two Fists.
It has one of two different secondary types: Dark or Water. Its secondary type is permanent and is determined by the Tower in which Kubfu is trained; the Tower of Darkness or Tower of Waters, respectively.
Urshifu has two Gigantamax forms, one for each Style.
Urshifu is the game mascot of The Isle of Armor.
Biology

This section is incomplete. Please feel free to edit this section to add missing information and complete it. Reason: Describing the Urshifu and Gigantamax Urshifu's appearances along with forms
|
Urshifu's style and personality are determined by how it trained as a Kubfu and the scroll it reads from either of Towers of Two Fists. Urshifu are known to enjoy eating honey, particularly Max Honey. It lives in the mountains of a distant region.
Single Strike Style Urshifu prefers battling without holding back. It strongly believes in using the One-hit KO strategy. If enraged, it will mercilessly attack the opponent until utterly crushed. Its movements are direct and involve rushing in a straight line. When it is a certain distance away from an opponent, it quickly leaps in to unleash a powerful blow. Urshifu trains its legs and moves by racing across sheer cliffs.
Rapid Strike Style Urshifu prefers calmly observing the opponent and their strength while dodging. Urshifu strongly believes in defeating its opponents with many rapid blows nonstop like a flowing river. It uses flowing movements to ward off an opponent's attack before overwhelming them with rapid strikes.[1]It is believed Urshifu modeled this style after the flows of rapid, sometimes clam river.
Gigantamax Single Strike Style Urshifu has been called "the very embodiment of rage" and "a divine emissary that banishes evil spirits with its fury." It is believed that Gigantamax Single Strike Style Urshifu can rid the world of its malevolence through its terrifying expression and shouting. The shockwaves released from its fists can blow away any Dynamaxed Pokémon with just one hit.
Gigantamax Rapid Strike Style Urshifu maintains a perfect one-perfected stance in a calm manner while in its Gigantamax form. It can maintain it to the point of not twitching. Opponents who face it may either feel greatly agitated or experience a sense of relief as if freed from evil spirits.[2]It is believed that Gigantamax Rapid Strike Style Urshifu could supposedly destroy those with evil in their hearts by simply glaring at them.
Urshifu is the only known Pokémon capable of using the moves Wicked Blow and Surging Strikes along with the exclusive G-Max Moves G-Max One Blow and G-Max Rapid Flow.

Origin
Urshifu may be based on an Asian black bear and a wushu fighter. Rapid Strike Style's Water typing may be a reference to the "flow like water" quote by famous actor and martial artist Bruce Lee.
Name origin
Urshifu may be a combination of ursus (Latin for bear) and shifu (Chinese for master).
Wulaosu may be a combination of wushu (Chinese martial arts), 老師 / 老师 lǎoshī (Chinese for teacher), and possibly ウラー urā (hurrah, battle cry) and 押忍 osu (interjection used in Japanese martial arts).
