PokemonRadar: week eight
One step up the evolutionary ladder, the starter Pokemon are back!
Pokemon Name: Moukazaru
Type: Fire / Fighting
Classification: Naughty
Pokedex Number: 005 Sinnoh / 391 National
Ability: Blaze - Increases the strength of Fire-type attacks when HP is low
Location Found: Evolved from Hikozaru
Useful Attacks: Fire Wheel
Once evolved into Moukazaru, Hikozaru's impish mischief transforms into teenage rowdiness and angst. When this Pokemon's burning bum turns into a torching tail, he gains a secondary Fighting type, making him useful in a variety of new situations, and his speed begins to stand out as the other starters put on weight. Moukazaru is disappointingly similar to Ruby and Sapphire's starter evolution Blaziken... only everyone likes monkeys more than chickens.
