COMMENTARY
Mabosstiff loves playing with children. Though usually gentle, it takes on an intimidating look when protecting its family.
BATTLE INFORMATION
Guard Dog; ability
Boosts the Pokémon’s Attack stat if intimidated. Moves and items that would force the Pokémon to switch out also fail to work.
Sarge used to belong to a client of Riz's. Riz took on his case, thinking Sarge had been stolen. Turned out, the client was just going through a super toxic divorce, and both people were willing to use everything to hurt the other, including poor Sarge. It ticked Riz off to see the poor pokemon so neglected by people who only cared about themselves, so he collected blackmail on each person involved and offered to trade it for Sarge.
Sarge had a different name before Riz adopted him, but it sucked, so Riz changed it to Sarge, who is named for the stereotypical old grumpy cop in cop shows.
Because Sarge is an older pokemon (he's going gray and everything), he will not be used in battle. Instead, he's just going to be Riz's companion and occasional couch.
In Paldea, Riz discovered that Sarge's Tera type is Dark
