Its story

Appearance

Conkeldurr is a hugely muscular, sepia, two-legged ogre with a huge red nose and a gray chin tuft. Thick violet bands mark its body, and it carries concrete pillars.

Lifestyle

It strikes with its pillars or throws them aside and leaps in with its fists, and it often helps workers at construction sites. It evolves from Gurdurr and is Timburr's final form.

In the anime

Trip shows it already evolved at the Clubsplosion, where Bianca's Emboar beats it by flinging its pillars back. Colress also turns the Conkeldurr of Cedric Juniper's assistants against them.

Name origin

The design blends a European ogre, a laborer, and a carnival strongman with a clown nose; the tuft suggests an elder. Conkeldurr may combine concrete, elder, and perhaps conk, a large nose or a blow.
