Biology

It is made up of a large gear and a minigear. By changing the direction in which it rotates, it communicates its feelings to others. When angry, it rotates faster.

This causes it to fire its minigear at foes to attack, though it will die if it does not return soon. When Klang goes all out, the minigear links up perfectly with the outer part of the big gear, and this Pokémon's rotation speed increases sharply. Many companies in the Galar region choose Klang as their logo, and it is considered the symbol of industrial technology around the world.
