Overview |
Bouffalant are short-tempered Pokémon that have the tendency to charge at the slightest provocation. They can be found roaming plains and savannas in herds. Once an endangered Pokémon, continued conservation efforts have greatly increased the number of Bouffalant in the wild. Bouffalant herds are territorial; they will break into stampedes when intruders draw near as they all attempt to charge at the invaders at once. The thick tuft of fur on a Bouffalant’s head is incredibly shock-absorbent, allowing it to headbutt with enough force to derail a train without feeling any significant knockback. This fur is also a symbol of dominance among Bouffalant. Individuals with the largest and most luxurious head fur have the first choice of mates during breeding season and are the first to graze if food is scarce. Interestingly, these Pokémon also respond to similar-looking hair among other beings, including humans. Herds charging at travelers have been known to suddenly stop upon noticing that one of the visitors has a particularly voluminous afro.
