Thus, Rotom introduced itself and took pictures of Ash's Pikachu and Kukui's Rockruff to update itself. Lights started to flicker, which made Rockruff scared, until a Rotom appeared and entered Ash's Pokédex, activating it. Rockruff watched as the Professor typed in the computer to activate Ash's Pokédex. Kukui was going to give away Rockruff at the welcome party as the fifth surprise for Ash until Tapu Koko interrupted. After he ate the meal, Ash let Rockruff approach it, who rubbed its face to Ash, showing its affection, then did the same to Pikachu. While having dinner with Kukui, Ash watched as Rockruff played with his Pikachu. Rockruff meets Ash and Pikachu for the first time. Since then, Rockruff has been living with Kukui in his house, though Kukui never caught it. Kukui gave Rockruff food and healed it from its injuries.

Please help the Pokémon Wiki by expanding it. During Lycanroc's initial red-eye rage state, Ash tried to calm the Wolf Pokémon down, only to get barked at. It had the habit of rubbing its rock collar on Ash's neck as a sign of affection. As a Rockruff, he also liked to play in the mud.Īsh first met Lycanroc as a Rockruff at Professor Kukui's house. According to Rotom Dex, despite Lycanroc being a Rock type, he enjoys being washed with soap and water as well as playing in the snow.

Lycanroc has a strong pride for his fur if dirtied in any way, he will become berserk and disobedient, only returning to normal when his fur is cleaned. Despite this, Lycanroc and Incineroar are still pretty good friends as he helped him train so he can battle his rival, Incineroar, again, after it lost to it at the Battle Royal Dome. Lycanroc would spar with Incineroar, as a Litten, even when their not with Ash as they sometime have various contests or argue with each other. Even after evolving into Lycanroc when they left Akala Island, Lycanroc still maintains its pre-evolved personality, though it also gains a bit of seriousness. A similar incident happened when Lycanroc knew it scared Nebby during its fight with Gladion's Silvally, as Type: Null.īefore his evolution as a Dusk Form of Lycanroc, Rockruff became extremely guilty, similar to Iris' Excadrill and like Tracey's Scyther, he was challenged by Tapu Lele while gaining more serious injuries during the battle before he was healed by sacrificing Ash and the two Lycanroc's energies. After seeing what he had done, Rockruff became remorseful of his behavior and wished to win fair and square, without attacking his friends to do it. His aggressive side was shown again when he bit Ash's hand, hastily attacking and even attacked Rowlet, which knocked Rowlet out of the match. Olivia said that Rockruff may possibly have been close to evolving, hence seeing his aggressiveness during the battle.


On the other hand, Rockruff was shown to have had a strong sense of smell and would use it to track down anything or anyone that's missing. Rockruff had a strong admiration for his evolved form and wanted to be strong just like it someday. Nonetheless, he also had a determined and courageous side that he wouldn't give up, even if he was defeated by a stronger opponent, like Gladion's Lycanroc. Whenever he showed his affections to anyone, he would tend to rub the rocks on his neck against them. Lycanroc, as Rockruff, is a very playful and affectionate Pokémon that gets along really well with Ash, Pikachu, and Professor Kukui.
