#586 Sawsbuck
Sawsbuck (Japanese: メブキジカ Mebukijika) is a dual-type Normal/Grass Pokémon introduced in Generation V.
It evolves from Deerling starting at level 34.
Sawsbuck has four forms: Spring Form, Summer Form, Autumn Form, and Winter Form. Sawsbuck changes forms depending on the location the game was loaded in. In Paldea, Spring Form corresponds to the South Province, Summer Form to the East Province, Autumn Form to the West Province, and Winter Form to the North Province.
When it debuted, Sawsbuck’s form changed based on the season. From Generation VI to VIII, its form could not be changed at all, and only the Spring Form could be found in the wild, with the other forms being obtainable exclusively via transfer from a Generation V game or from Pokémon GO.
Sawsbuck is a brown and cream, deer-like Pokémon with rhomboid ears and darker ear insides. Its eyes have light-orange markings that curve down to the sides of its face. It has a dark-brown nose, and it sports cream fur on its chin and sides of its face. Light-orange stripes rim its underbelly, and its back is decorated with spots.
Its appearance changes depending on the season. During the spring, a tuft of cream fur appears on its chest, its antlers are adorned with pink flowers, and the spots on its back are pink. During the summer, its tail points up, it grows tufts of fur on the back of its head, its antlers sport green leaves, and its spots are green. During the fall, it sports a cream tuft of fur on its chest, the leaves on its antlers are red and brown, and its spots are orange. During the winter, the cream fur turns white, tufts of white fur appear on its chest and lower limbs, its antlers are coated in white, and its spots are white.
Sawsbuck lives in herds led by the Sawsbuck with the most splendid antlers. In Generation V, Horn Leech was its signature move.
Sawsbuck has four forms: Spring Form, Summer Form, Autumn Form, and Winter Form.
Sawsbuck can live almost anywhere as they adapt to the season but prefer to live away from humans. It is herbivorous. Sawsbuck have been referred to as the harbingers of spring. There are many enthusiasts out there who love the different forms of Sawsbuck. However, the Winter Form is the least popular of them all.
The flowers on Spring Form’s antlers grow slower due to absorbing nutrients. The paler the Spring Form’s flower is, the more beautiful Sawsbuck apparently becomes. The thicker and larger the broach leaves are, the more majestic Summer Form Sawsbuck becomes. Summer Form’s leaves can be used to make black tea, which has a different taste depending on the region. In Paldea, the tea has a more aromatic taste. The darker the Autumn Form’s red foliage is, the more stylish it is considered. Autumn Form Sawsbuck have short tempers, and the males notably fight each other incessantly. Winter Form Sawsbuck are calmer and easier to tame during the winter. Hence, it is considered the perfect time to obtain Winter Form Sawsbuck as a partner.“-Bulbapedia.
