Field Notes ✎ Observed (cross-referenced)

Observed under the field-journal lens: everything about Pebble's silhouette is built around hiding. The stone cap noted in its description works as portable cover, and its behaviour — slow movement, never straying far from its rocky home, peeking out only when completely safe — matches the profile of a burrow-anchored defender rather than a roamer. As a Rock-type it registers strong against Fire, Electric, Ice and Poison attackers, and it resists Fire and Flying damage outright. The flip side is a broad list of exploitable weaknesses: Water, Grass, Fighting and Steel all hit it hard. Pebble carries no EM slot, so it cannot lean on an extra move or equipment to patch that coverage. Treat it as a specimen that wins by refusing to die, not by trading blows.

Base Stats & Battle Role ✎ Observed (cross-referenced)

Pebble's spread is 37 HP / 40 Attack / 58 Defence / 33 Special Attack / 57 Special Defence / 27 Speed, totalling 252. Defence at 58 is its single highest stat, with Special Defence close behind at 57 — a genuinely two-sided wall that shrugs off both physical and special pressure. The soft underbelly is offence and tempo: Special Attack of 33 and Speed of 27 are its two lowest values, meaning Pebble almost always moves last and struggles to threaten real damage back. Its 40 Attack is workable but unremarkable. In practice this is a stall specimen: park it in front of the Fire, Electric, Ice or Poison attackers it resists or counters, soak the hits, and let chip damage or a faster teammate close the game. Do not expect it to sweep.

Evolution & Where to Find ✎ Observed (cross-referenced)

Pebble is a base-stage creature — the source lists no pre-evolution — caught in Verdant Valley, a grassy early zone that fits a low-level Rock specimen which never wanders far from cover. It spawns under any weather, so there is no timing trick to farm it; standard catching with an Advanced Ball or similar applies, and with community rank E it is not a chase target. Its documented next stage is Pebroll, though the exact evolution trigger — level, stone, or item — is not yet recorded in the data we have, so treat the method as reported rather than confirmed. If you want the evolved form, the practical route is to catch a Pebble here first and raise it. No Evolution Stone requirement is confirmed for this line at present.
