Threadbear, the Flailing Arm Pokemon Abandoned stores need to be cleared out quickly, or they are certain to be overrun by Threadbear. Some claim they are only trying to hug those it finds, but its hugs are known to break bones. Every Threadbear has a unique set of patches, buttons, and tears. It is suspected they use their needle claws to stitch themselves up, but it has never been observed directly.
Types: Ghost/Fighting Abilities: Unnerve/Fluffy Hidden Ability: Klutz Signature Move: Needle Punch — Ghost | 70 BP | 5 PP | Physical | Threads entangle Threadbear and the foe, copying negative effects from Threadbear onto the target while they're both in battle. Negative effects include item negation from Klutz and Embargo, Fire weakness from Fluffy, stat drops, status conditions, confusion, infatuation, and most reflectable moves (those caught by Magic Bounce, such as Taunt, Torment, Encore, Disable, Mean Look, Whirlwind, Yawn, Powder, Quash, Leech Seed, and Worry Seed; except for hazards.)
If there's one thing Manaka has too much of, it's space. That space is sometimes taken for granted, with large buildings lying empty for years. At first, these buildings will be the target of suburban explorers, until Threadbear eventually move in. While thought to be its own Pokemon for many years, recent research has confirmed the rumors that Threadbear is an evolution of Stufful when the Pokemon spends too long in these abandoned places. Pokemon professors urge trainers not to bring their own Stufful to these abandoned areas until the evolution method is better understood.
