Sawk is a blue humanoid Pokémon that practices karate moves. It has no evolutionary line but is accompanied by the counterpart Throh.

Information

Sawk train using karate in the mountains. Tying their belts gets them pumped and makes their punches more destructive. The sound of Sawk punching boulders can be heard at the bottom of the mountains where they train. Sawk are angered if their training is disturbed.
