four of them
In classic Gen 1 fashion, a Pokemon has evolved simply by gathering "more" of itself. And as with Magnemite and Dugtrio, this raises so many questions.
What happens if you catch a single Tandemaus but not its partner? What if you separate a member of the Maushold and raise it independently? Do the small ones grow into Tandemice and pair up, or do they move out to mingle with other Mausholds for better genetic diversity? They're treated as Genderless, so thankfully we don't have to answer some of the weirder breeding questions, but.
They still creep me out.
Overall: 5/10
Obviously they're a single connected organism. Mommy Maus contains the lungs and Daddy Maus has the digestive system. In the evolution you get Sara Maus which stores youth trauma and Benny Maus who is the reproductive organ, weirdly. Some Meisholds have a third small one, called Milhaus Maus. It is vestigial and is sometimes removed for cosmetic reasons.

DeleteI do _like_ the two-tone design. If it had been more visible, it would have been really cool, with the puzzle piece motif while also looking like Mickey Maus pants. It's a cool design that they made invisible for some reason. And then they didn't continue on it in the evolution either.
