Bronzong (ドータクン, Dōtakun?) is the evolved form of Bronzor. It has the appearance of a giant steel bell with the yoke still attached based on Zhou Dynasty bells called zhong or Japanese dotaku bells. The combination of two red-colored circles and a gradient design between them give Bronzong a face with two eyes and a large sack. Its appearance is vaguely Aztec in design. Round eyes and sometimes mouths are a common pattern (called taotie) on shang and zhou bronze vessels. Originally an ancient Pokémon, one was dug up at a construction site after 2000 years. Apparently, ancient peoples revered it as a bringer of plentiful harvests for its ability to summon rain. Fittingly, Bronzong naturally learns the move Rain Dance (and Sunny Day), strange for a Psychic-Steel type.
