Cubone • Gold/Silver/Crystal Pokédex

Scarlet/Violet support is in the works!

Thank you for your interest in having the Marriland Pokédex updated to support Pokémon Scarlet & Violet! This has been something that I've been wanting to update for awhile, and it is my current project to implement support for the new games and The Teal Mask DLC. Thank you for your patience as I work on this over the coming week or two!

Cubone's Detailed Stats

By default, the stats you see in the table below show four different possibilities, all assuming Cubone is level 100: its stats with 0 EVs, 252+ (max) EVs, 0 IVs, and 31 (max) IVs. Nature is not shown by default, so its maximum is 10% higher than shown here, and minium 10% lower.

Pokédex Entries for Cubone

Generation 2 Pokédex Entries

Gold
If it is sad or lonely, the skull it wears shakes, and emits a plain­tive and mournful sound.
Silver
It always wears the skull of its dead mother, so no one has any idea what its hidden face looks like.
Crystal
It lost its mother after its birth. It wears its mother's skull, never revealing its true face.

Generation 1 Pokédex Entries

Red Blue
Because it never removes its skull helmet, no one has ever seen this POKéMON's real face.
Yellow
Wears the skull of its deceased mother. Its cries echo inside the skull and come out as a sad melody.
