Gumshoos
#735
Gumshoos is a Normal type Pokémon introduced in Generation 7. Gumshoos' method of targeting prey is the exact opposite of Yungoos's strategy. While Yungoos prowls around, Gumshoos stakes out its prey's usual routes and waits patiently for it to come by. Gumshoos has a tenacious personality, which is why it targets one prey for so long without wavering. But when the sun goes down, it runs low on stamina, falling asleep right on the spot. Gumshoos can withstand a great deal of hunger. It's able to stay perfectly still while waiting for its prey, keeping watch without eating a thing. Gumshoos evolves from Yungoos.

- Sun:When it finds a trace of its prey, it patiently stakes out the location...but it’s always snoozing by nightfall.
- Moon:It adores having Rattata and Raticate for dinner, but as it’s diurnal, it never encounters them. This Pokémon boasts incredible patience.
- Ultra Sun:Although it wasn’t originally found in Alola, this Pokémon was brought over a long time ago when there was a huge Rattata outbreak.
- Ultra Moon:Patient by nature, this Pokémon loses control of itself and pounces when it spots its favorite meal, Rattata!
- Scarlet:Once it finds signs of prey, it will patiently stake out the location, waiting until the sun goes down.
- Violet:Gumshoos specializes in relentlessly tracking down prey. The simple-minded Skwovet doesn’t seem to provide Gumshoos enough challenge.
