Dondozo is a Water-type Pokémon (National Dex #977) with a high stat total of 530. You can have one built for Scarlet & Violet and Legends: Z-A, and every copy is generated through the same PKHeX legality engine Pokémon HOME uses on deposit.
Its best stat is HP at 150, which makes it a defensive wall. Attack outweighs Special Attack by a clear margin, so an Adamant or Jolly nature and a physical move set play to its strengths. When you order one here you pick the nature, EV spread, IVs and Tera type yourself, so you can build the exact spread the set calls for rather than breeding for it.
Defensively, Dondozo takes super-effective damage from Electric, Grass. It resists Fire, Water, Ice, Steel. Its ability options are Unaware, Oblivious, Water Veil, and you choose which one your copy carries.
In-game, Dondozo has 13 recorded encounter locations across Scarlet & Violet (11), Legends: Z-A (2) — listed in full below with levels, catchable marks and legal Poké Balls. Note that at least one encounter is shiny-locked in Scarlet & Violet, meaning it cannot be found shiny there no matter how long you hunt. A shiny Dondozo ordered here is built with a legal PID and Encryption Constant, so it passes the same checks a hunted one does.
