Baltoy (Japanese: ヤジロン Yajilon) is a dual-type Ground/Psychic Pokémon.

It evolves into Claydol starting at level 36.

Biology

Physiology

Baltoy are small, tan-and-red figurine-like Pokémon that are made out of clay or mud. It balances on a single top-like foot. To maintain this balance, it has two arm-like appendages that even out its center of gravity, therefore making it more stable. Baltoy has a single spike-like protrusion on the top of its head, and its red body markings make its abdomen somewhat resemble a Poké Ball. Baltoy's eyes appear to have arching red eyebrows, and seem perpetually closed or encased in goggles.

Gender differences

Baltoy are a genderless species.

Special abilities

Baltoy possesses psychic powers, and is one of the small amount of Pokémon that can use Cosmic Power. Being a Psychic-type, it can also use moves such as Reflect, Light Screen, and Safeguard.

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

Baltoy can be found in deserts.

Later in that same episode, these Clay Doll Pokémon stopped Team Rocket from stealing the rocket ship.

Trivia

Origin

Its design is similar to the 遮光器土偶 shakōkidogū—a "spaceman" clay figurine from the Jōmon period of Japanese history. It also seems to resemble a top, Hopi Kachina doll, or possibly a dreidel.

Name origin

Baltoy may be a combination of balance and toy.

Yajilon is an abbreviation of 弥次郎兵衛 yajirobe'e (balancing toy).
