11 Bouldus is No. 058 in the Aniimo index, a Rock creature that fights in the Support role. A round stone that had stayed with Baleetle day and night woke up from all that bumping. Tired of being controlled, it swallowed an insect and could finally move by its own will.

ATK drives damage, BREAK is what wears down an enemy's guard, P.DEF and M.DEF cover the two damage types, and REGEN governs how quickly resources come back.
