Can you tell a Pumpkaboo's size when you encounter it in the wild?

Sep. 1, 2016

All of the forms look the same on the info page. I’m just wondering if there’s a way to tell before I decide to capture one.

The Pumpkaboo sprites seem to be different sizes depending on the size of the Pumpkaboo you’ve encountered. It might be a bit hard to tell, so you could always catch a Pumpkaboo and then check what size it is in the Pokédex. Super Size Pumpkaboo also apparently has a deeper cry.

Unfortunately, you have to eyeball it in most cases. It’s not that hard, since they aren’t completely indistinguishable from each other. However, there is an exception to this: a Super-Size Pumpkaboo has a deeper sounding cry than the other sizes; you’ll know it when you hear it.

Hope I helped!
