Nuzleaf is a laid-back yet secretive guardian who cared for you in Serene Village. Speaking with southern slang, he encouraged exploration but often disappeared for days. Later revealed as a pawn of Dark Matter, he helped petrify Pokémon worldwide. After being freed, he deeply regrets his actions and struggles to face you, seeking redemption. A Grass/Dark-type Pokémon, he’s skilled in climbing and uses his leaf to create unsettling or soothing music.
