Bulbaeye crawls along tree branches in search of the shiniest, most colorful fruit to eat. Its eyes are underdeveloped and have not bloomed yet, so it struggles to see objects that are not vibrant.

Caterzma voraciously seeks to devour anything that moves as a method for staving off its unbearable hunger pains. It fires torrents of String Shots to ensnare its quarries, then sucks the nutrients out of its trapped prey.

Schools of Voltyke leap from the ocean waves during storms in an attempt to be struck by lightning. If one is struck, it explodes. The rest of the school rescue the fainted Voltyke as this practice helps lead to evolution.

Cutres is found in the most inhospitable deserts, circling over any life it sees. While it is usually viewed as an omen of death, it is actually trying to use its shadow to usher the lost creature below it towards safety.

Hitmongey fights by creating clouds of sand with its wings before launching unseen kicks into the dustcloud. Its powerful legs let it leap high in the air as a quick takeoff for flying.

Hitmonotto darts around the battlefield with its wings while striking opponents with lightning-fast kicks. It avoids using Sand Attack, considering it an underhanded tactic unless absolutely necessary.

Hitmongeot remains airborne in combat, kicking from above with its stretchy legs. It uses this same strategy to snatch prey in its talons. After a battle, it thoroughly restores its plume, a decorative mark of pride in the species.

Hitmongey fights defensively since its wings limit the range of its fists. It trains by hopping about, throwing punches at dust clouds that it kicks up.

Hitmonotto remains in constant motion during combat by executing short hops while watching for an opening to strike. Its punches can knock holes in trees, a skill it uses to hunt for bugs.

Hitmonrill primarily uses the gloves on its arms to block attacks due to their limited range. It more often uses the fist on its tail for offense, due to its reach and ability to spring-load a powerful sucker punch.

Lickipi licks everything it encounters to learn about the world. Rather than endangering this baby Pokémon, this action helps build its immune system.

Lickitress uses four tongue-like pseudopods to travel and adhere itself to trees using their residue. These pseudopods are extremely sensitive, so it will close its nearly impervious shell to protect them.

Lickisect moves slowly, but its long tongue can quickly close the distance on prey. Even if the tongue fails to capture its target, the saliva carries propagating infectious spores to spread the parasitic mushroom.

The gases venting from Koffto are caused by the metabolic processes needed for it to transform into other Pokémon. Even after it transforms, the smell never completely fades from Koffto.

Despite its pleasant smile, Koffotto is very territorial. The gasses it expels both ward off intruders and aid it in aerial acrobatic maneuvers.

Koffgeot soars over grasslands, dispensing a gas which disorients prey so it can easily catch them. Its diet can change the properties of the gas, so some farmers feed them Tanga Berries so the gas makes their plants more bug resistant.

Koffllery protects coral reefs by feeding on ocean pollution, which produces a noxious ink it expels to repel predators. It is curious of new objects and creatures in its habitat, which often leads to divers having a piece of equipment stolen by it.

Koffonee is found in areas with chemically contaminated soil, where it sucks the toxins from the dirt as nutrients. From small spouts on its body it blasts clouds of cotton, which is used to make stain-resistant clothing.

Weenape creates a cloud of noxious gas to fly around its region, searching for worthy opponents to fight. It battles using tricky strategies, including blasting disorienting clouds from its tail and seemingly disappearing into the gas.

Weequaza flies through the ozone layer, consuming harmful gases and purifying the air. The gas consumption causes the interior of its body to be highly combustible, leading to disastrous fallout if it were to be ignited and explode.

Weexys has an intense fascination with human health and attempts to heal any injured people it comes across. The gas leaking from its pores is highly toxic to humans, so its efforts tend to do more harm than good.

Rhyfa is unbalanced due to its rocky head making it top-heavy, so it often clumsily falls. It finds this clumsiness hilarious, so it is a common sight to see an entire group of Rhyfa giggling as they fall over and roll around.

Rhyfairy lights up its cavern with the gemstones on its head, which are powered by moonlight. If it realizes that the moon has risen and it is not outside, it becomes enraged and charges at walls to get into the moonlight quickly.

Rhyfairy's cones reflect moonlight as it dances under the moon. It likes to climb high up mountains and leap off to crash into the ground far below. The descending glow is often mistaken for spacecraft or Minior.

The spinning drills and charging attack of Rhydrio are renowned for their devastating power, able to shred into a mountainside with ease. The three heads get along well for a multi-headed Pokémon, working in unison to crush its competition.

Tangey doesn't fly so much as use the vines composing its wing-like structures to catapult itself by swinging from tree to tree. As such, it normally keeps to wooded areas to quickly escape predators.

The tooth-like protrusions on the vines are actually thorns which absorb blood when piercing the skin of a victim. It must use its vines to hang from trees or the ceilings of caves to sleep.

Tanlucha fights by grappling opponents with its vines and then pummeling the trapped foe with punches and kicks. After a victory, it eats a treat of celebratory Yache Berries which it keeps deep in its vines.

Tanbell constitutes a Tangela parasitizing a Weepinbell for safety, as it hides inside the bell mouth. The vines slowly consume the main plant body, allowing it to manipulate the husk as a form of mimicry.

The larger entity of a Kangasor always descends to the ground first, so as to help cushion the smaller entity's landing. Seeing the pair shooting across the night sky is believed to be a good sign for an expecting parent.

Golsopod fights with an elegant, ballroom dance-style of combat. It will distract opponents with its flowing tail before landing a spinning strike from its large claws.

Goltle is a common choice for household aquariums and gets along well with other small, aquatic Pokémon. It is voracious and often gobbles up more food than it can handle, so owners need to carefully spread out small feedings.

Goltortle's shell patterns become more vibrant and intricate when it has a good diet, so in the wild a beautiful shell will attract mates. Its large ears are sensitive to underwater noises, allowing it to detect predators with plenty of time to hide.

Goltoise makes its nest in large freshwater ponds where it can burrow into the mud at night, only the cannons visible. Despite its bulk, it swims gracefully thanks to its powerful tail.

Seatle is aggressive, chasing other Pokémon to bash them with its horn. It will even swim up a waterfall to launch itself at flying Pokémon that have gained its ire. If kept in a tank, it will most likely smash its way out.

The bell of Seacruel resembles an injured Seaking, which it mimics to lure in predators of Seaking. When they get close, Seacruel wraps them in its tentacles and jabs them with its venomous beak so it can feed leisurely.

Seatortle is much more docile than other members of its evolution line, preferring to bask just below the surface of the water. It can be safely kept in decorative ponds where Everstones have been carefully scattered around.

Seatoise is a highly invasive species after owners released it once previous forms grew too large to care for. It outcompetes other freshwater predators, fighting viciously and only firing its spikes as a last resort, as they take weeks to regrow.

Butterzma refracts sunlight through its wings to launch devastating laser beam attacks. After it feeds on the nectar of a flower, the flower crystallizes, making this Pokémon devastating to ecosystems.

Starfisk burrows in shallow ocean sands, beneath which its red gem shines bright on moonlit nights. Sailors hang one over their ship controls for good luck based on the old legends that Starfisk is a lost mermaid coin.

Starcool floats on ocean currents, influencing its direction with jets of water from its rigid arms. When it communicates, the larger side gems glow brighter than the core and act as decoys should a predator attack.

Starcruel floats on the surface of the ocean, catching passing fish in its dangling mass of tentacles. When whole schools gather at night, the glowing jewels light up the sea in beautiful displays.

Starcruel communicates with others of its kind by flashing its gemstone and gel orbs with a variety of different colors and speeds to indicate different messages. Its tentacles sparkle with dots that resemble constellations, but none that are known.

Mr. woodo constantly performs, whether miming with invisible objects or mimicking trees and statues. When rain threatens to end its show, Mr. woodo creates an invisible umbrella to protect itself and continues without a care.

Mr. phan uses psychic powers to inflate its horns and spinal trunk. While this may have been a warning behavior in the past, it now serves to cushion impacts made while Mr. phan clowns for the entertainment of baby Pokémon.

Primarily found in abandoned buildings, Mr. leaf projects dread-inducing music into the minds of intruders of its territory. It does not make noise externally, but it will mimic using its detachable crest as a flute while dancing a jig.

The fierce appearance of Scysey is enough to frighten predators away from its egg. This is fortunate for the Scysey because its scythe arms are too short to be used effectively as weapons.

Scykhan's belly is the most durable part of its body, which is good as its baby is not yet aware of the damage its claws can deal. Scykhan is violently defensive of its baby, so the Safari Zone has Rangers monitor it closely.

Scypede runs at speeds too fast for its small legs to stop safely on their own. When it needs to stop abruptly, it slices into the ground with its scythe tails.

Scypede has learned how to control its high rolling speeds. It uses its scythe limbs to aid in quick turns while hunting or retreating.

Scypede has learned how to control its high rolling speeds. It uses its scythe limbs to aid in quick turns while hunting or retreating.

Scyras is more confident and aggressive than its stature would suggest. It will attack Pokémon far larger than it by spraying them in sleep-inducing spores if the fight takes an unfavorable turn.

Scysect cuts deep gashes into trees to mark its hunting territory, where it uses sleep spores to knock out prey that are too quick to chase. The mushroom's pheromones are used to add woodsy notes to cologne.

Electarill's rubbery body insulates its electric charge to protect others while it swims. Groups of Electarill are dangerous for fishing villages since they hunt by discharging electricity into the water, devastating ecosystems the fishers rely on.

As a brood parasite, Pincute invades hatcheries of Exeggcute species. It rarely survives to evolution in the wild due to its tendency to devour other members of its clutch.

Pintung subsides on nectar from Pokémon like Victreebel by feeding while staying at a safe distance thanks to its long tongue. The tongue is the majority of its body and is very exposed, so it uses its fierce appearance to scare off threats.

To protect its young, Pinkhan places the child in the large, spiked pouch in its belly. The spikes look fierce, but actually are soft enough not to harm the baby Pinkhan when it tries to squirm out.

When Pineon camouflages, its mouth and teeth cannot change color, so it must use the scenery even more to blend in. It is nearly impossible to see when it feeds since it uses its teeth to chew into a tree for sap while blending in with the bark.

Pinfisk hides under mud or leaves waiting to zap prey by biting its charged teeth on their ankles. Especially daring Pinfisk hang from trees using the pincers to drop on the heads of passing victims.

Magiran's horn is blunted, severely hampering its combat use. It seeks out others of its kind so that it has safety, but often ends up tangled in reeds or kelp.

Magirino wiggles its ears and swings its tail in a threatening display to ward off opponents. Once the threat has passed, it collapses from exerting so much energy.

Magiking slaps the surface of the water to create loud cracking sounds that frighten even fierce predators away. If it is attacked, it dives into the water and speedily swims away.

Weeter is most often found in rotting, deserted houses where it rips apart the walls with its claws to consume the decomposing wood. Its body is covered in hairy bristles, which it will brush along the neck of unaware explorers.

Weegar chases after intruders on its stumpy legs, trying to sting them with its venomous tail. When alone, it munches on crumbling bits of rotten buildings while grumbling to itself.

Gyararino ranges along the coast of oceans, amphibiously able to nest along the shore or in underwater caves. It rams boats with its crest, which is harder than diamond, seeking to sink what it perceives as challengers to its territory.

Gyaraking has a volatile temper, especially when protecting its young, and rampages with the strength of the most devastating natural disasters. Emergency response rangers are stationed near known nesting sites with well-trained teams.

Ditlicky can transform into nearly anything, but it will always have its distinctively large, muscular tongue in its new form. It will often disguise itself as an ordinary object and steal food from passersby with its tongue.

Flamagius is able to control fire into different shapes, which it uses to entertain smaller Pokémon. Folklore says that the fire at the end of its staff can show a person their future, but only if they do a noble favor for Flamagius.

Porysaur is used to help teach youths the proper care of plants since its digital nature allows it to be reset if its health declines. The majority of its encyclopedic knowledge is stored within the core on its back.

Porysaur's blocky structure is believed to have formed to better the growing data core flower on its back. The data flower grows more rapidly as Porysaur takes in information in direct sunlight.

While Poryfarig sleeps, its tail remains alert for danger, which it will lunge at with a reach further than its chain-like appearance would indicate. The tail charges and bites with enough force to shatter steel gates.

Porysaur's data core has grown in size to accommodate the massive amount of information it has collected. Porysaur has more control over the shape of its data core when in cyberspace than in the natural world.

The shell is too small to fit the body, but Omatini will bury itself, leaving only the shell and eyes exposed. It was long considered a hoax until wild specimens were found using their facial tentacles to sift through deep sands for food.

Omalurk adds the shells of devoured Pokémon to the armor protecting its soft body. It must constantly seek new shells to make room for its ever-growing tentacles.

Kaktly hides within its shell to protect itself from strong winds. When someone passes by what they assume is just a discarded insect molt, Kaktly lets out a shrill scream to scare them.

Kakter secures its body to the wall of crumbling architecture while its hands remotely move around its line of sight. When a living being enters the area, Kakter sneaks its hands up behind them and scares them away.

Kakgar's outer layer mimics the frightening countenance of a Gengar, scaring away potential predators. When it is ready to evolve, Kakgar peeks out of the growing cracks in its armor, waiting for the moment it deems will be the funniest.

Aeroton's extra eyes help it scout for food with an enhanced field of view. If it sustains a powerful hit, its amber-coated segments detach until it is safe to reform by using its magnets.

In the wild, Snorfa sleeps twenty-two hours a day, with its two waking hours spent late at night devouring food. It makes its home in tall trees where it can safely sleep and feel closer to the moon.

Snorfairy gather on tall buildings and hills to exchange favorite foods while laying beneath the stars. If they are witnessed traveling during daylight, there will be a gorgeous astronomical event soon at their destination.

Snorfable spends the night gathering food and eating while watching the moon cross the sky. As soon as sunrise is noticed, it passes out into a deep, peaceful slumber.

Snortula scrounges for food, dragging the ever-expanding haul behind it in its electrified web. When it tires out, it collapses atop the pile and slowly begins eating. Once it runs out of food, it begins the cycle again in a new territory.

Snorpede can decimate regions of food as it gallops about, scooping up all it wants to eat, and devouring as it runs. Once it has eaten its fill, it curls up tightly around any leftovers not yet consumed and sleeps, protected by its armored plates.

To conserve energy, Snormite prefers to roll for locomotion rather than fly. It inhabits urban areas to magnetically pull tinned foods to it, exerting as little energy as necessary.

Snorton works as a unit to magnetically pull metal food containers from stores and homes to its resting place. Each member of the group has different foods it prefers, so there is rarely fighting over who eats what part of its find.

To avoid detection, Dragotor sticks to shadows and hides behind its tail, which mimics the appearance of a tropical bush. Legend says that the crystals on its tail will grant a wish if someone gathers one from three different Dragotor.

Beetly is surrounded by a corrosive honey corona which it uses to burrow through the walls of abandoned buildings where it makes its hive. Drips of the honey remain behind, making urban explorers mistake it for ghostly ectoplasm.

Beeter silently stalks through its habitat of an empty building, seeking out unsuspecting people. When it finds a victim, it chases them, cackling maliciously and trying to poke them with its stingers.

Beegar congregate in abandoned buildings to plot how to best torment nearby towns. They swarm in a cacophony of buzzing giggles and steal items to construct and expand their hive.

Totofing can hover, but prefers rolling around in its watery habitat, playing with other Pokémon. It helps fight forest fires by floating with Pokémon Rangers on the ground and protecting them and their Pokémon with its omnidirectional water spray.

Crocowile naps while sunbathing, with the secondary head warding off curious predators. When hungry, it sits on the shore and cries, while the secondary head waits beneath the surface to strike.

Senrak is an explorer by nature, surveying flatlands by elevating with its tail or climbing around forests with its six legs. It only uses the stinger to protect itself or its packmates, instead eating plants and nectar.

Hootrow hops from foot to foot faster than can be tracked due to its agitation from the specialized organs that help it track time. Farmers create straw decoys of Electric-type Pokémon to ward flocks away.

Hootcada spends most of its life safely underground. The antennae contain an organ that tells it the perfect time to emerge and evolve.

Noctossom meet in groups at night to dance, which have been observed to correspond with the constellations overhead. The leaf skirt exudes an aroma used in perfume favored by clubbers and students for its ability to keep those smelling it awake.

Noctrow uses its long neck to pursue startled prey into their burrows. It is more active in twilight hours, so many hikers have been startled when glimpsing the skull-shaped chest plumage in the low light.

Noctinja silently soars through the night sky without moving its wings. Folklore says that its horn halo glows particularly bright when ferrying a good person to the afterlife.

Noctjask soars through forests and urban areas at night in complete silence. It unleashes a shrill song to communicate with others, which alongside its stealth and unblinking, red eyes has led to many believing it is a bad omen.

Ledynx acts with immense bravado until it gets stood up to, upon which it timidly flees screeching in fear. It rolls around to build up static electricity so it can use bursts of light to attract others of its kind.

Spinagle uses its tail to artistically spin its webbing into gorgeous art that entrap prey up to the size of Pidgey. Psychics have it weave while a customer describes their dreams, then interprets that person's fortune from Spinagle's design.

Spinadum spins webs strong enough to trap a charging Rhyhorn. When many gather together, they weave artistically intricate webs that indicate psychic communication among the swarm.

A family of Spinadoof will spin their webs together over or on water to create a leak-proof dam. If any member of the colony is threatened, the whole group will web up the attacker and drag it into their lodge to eat together.

Ariaeons weave a strong web in the shape of a tail that aids it in attracting prey like Shellder. They are sometimes trained by sailors to use their webs to better secure cargo for long voyages.

Ariaty spins combat armor so it can fight opponents much more powerful than itself. It attaches a silk thread to those it cares about, which it can sense with its spiked crest.

Lanllery searches tunnels for prey, blinding them by flashing its light before striking. For a long time, merchants have kept one for sailing at night, when it climbs onto the prow and shines its beacon to signal other ships and highlight obstacles.

While Lansopod is a fierce combatant, it spends most of its time meditating inside sunken ships or dark caverns. It illuminates the orbs on its head during meditation, warning other Pokémon not to disturb its focus.

Using static electricity, Piloon clusters together in large masses. When the energy discharges, the swarm is scattered, leaving each Piloon at the mercy of even the slightest wind.

Piesta can be found crawling within wall cavities of buildings, where it chews on electrical wiring and absorbs charges from small devices. When discovered, it will unleash a pitiable cry that lowers the defenses of even the hardest heart.

Igglygar struggles learning to fly but is watched over by a helpful Wigglycor until it becomes successful. It uses its claws to clip berries neatly from the plant.

Igglycor wildly flails about with its razor-sharp claws, lacking any sense of coordination or danger. It sleeps most of the day and toddles around the forest at night, when even predators avoid its wailing and thrashing.

Igglydude bounces around the walls of caves, letting out delighted squeaks each time it impacts a wall. It rarely sings because it becomes shy as soon as it hears its own voice begin echoing in its cavernous habitat.

Togesprout carries soil in its eggshell to help it collect water and nutrients as it journeys. However, the cracks in the shell for its feet leak soil, so it must refill often with dirt from all over the region.

Narunt's feathers form a protective thermal layer as it scampers around its arctic habitat. It can foresee minor good fortune, so ice fishers will follow one to find a good spot to catch a lot of food.

Nachop constantly works to improve its mind and body, training by cooperating with humans. Miners enjoy working with it due to its enthusiasm, and because its foresight leads it to start an evacuation if it foresees disaster.

Matle withdraws into its shell to avoid conflict, blocking up the holes with its static wool. It is most often found grazing in marshlands since its wool repels water.

Matortle idolizes the Matoise in its herd, and trains to help them in defending the group from predators. It watches beyond the grazing members of the herd and will flash blinking signals with its tail to alert them to danger.

Matoise protects its flock by firing electrically charged clumps of wool from its cannons at any perceived dangers. Its woolly back must be shorn often as it hardens quickly into a tough shell, trapping detritus within.

Flaatortle's wool is hydrophobic, allowing it to pursue prey in its estuary habitat without becoming waterlogged. It produces a briny milk, infused with a small, energy boosting electric charge, which is made into a crumbly cheese.

The rotating of Amphaklang's gears builds energy, which it stores in the red cores protected in its wool. The cores are highly sought after to power large devices like lighthouses.

Amphatle struggles to control the brightness of the gem on its tail, sometimes accidentally releasing bursts that can be seen for miles around. It is easily embarrassed by these mistakes and will withdraw into its shell to hide.

Amphatoise no longer produces wool, dedicating itself to protecting members of its flock by launching electric blasts from its accurate cannons. Elderly members of the species congregate along shorelines, acting as natural lighthouses with their tails.

With a robust diet of Wacan Berries, Amphatoise will produce thick coats of electrically-charged wool. This wool is shorn with the help of Ground-type Pokémon so it can be used in producing heavy-duty clothing for utility workers.

Belldle prefers living in sunny fields where it joins with others of its kind to wiggle in rhythm. Florists welcome it in their gardens since it has a sunny disposition and only eats detached leaves and other plant detritus.

Belltata frolics in tropical fields where sunlight continually energizes it until it falls asleep in piles when night arrives. Its pollen is collected for use in medicine that helps induce restful sleep.

Bellicate build complex nesting tunnels under wildflower fields where they can avoid most predators. They seek out flowers to decorate their tree branch tails before performing dance rituals to attract a partner.

Bellape loves to dance but flies into a rage when onlookers laugh at its somewhat awkward movements. The petals of its flowers have a calming effect on others when used in medicines or teas but do not seem to help Bellape's temper.

Madour fiercely protects those it considers its pack, with whom it loves to roughhouse. It is trained to help on container ships by hunting vermin and rescuing crew that fall overboard.

Azumakrow controls its lake through its Makrow enforcers and its powerful hearing, which helps it anticipate plots against it. It loves entertaining baby Pokémon with bubble tricks, but will only show this side among its most trusted allies.

Polians gathers along riverbanks at night to sing, beginning with a loud croak that trails off into a hiss. It desires attention above all else, so Trainers must pamper it, lest it decide to ignore orders.

Polibok has an impish personality and will tug on the feet of swimmers to startle them. It is often spotted playfully wrestling other Pokémon off rocks in the middle of lakes to be crowned champion.

Polimortar build hierarchical colonies in lakes made from long dormant calderas. Polimortar takes great pride in its appearance, with the most well-groomed member of a colony leading the others in a deafening choir.

Skipret meanders around flowering fields, scattering its petals and helping pollinate since pollen sticks to its fur. Its fallen petals are used to infuse perfumes and colognes with a sweet, slightly citrusy scent reminiscent of the idea of summer.

Skipans burrows so just its flower can be seen above ground. The petals are plucked to be used in a mixture for an antitoxin for most snake venom.

The flower pattern on the inside of the hood of Skipbok is especially good at absorbing sunlight. Whenever the temperature gets too cold, Skipbok burrows to wait until warmer temperatures.

Skipsol rarely lives in one location long because it anxiously anticipates oncoming disaster, especially weather changes. Herbal tea brewed with its petals is used in divination which requires reading of tea leaves to warn of danger.

Skipgast is a spirit inhabiting a flowering compost heap. It is frequently found in gardens, where it leaves behind mineral-rich compost that exponentially aids the health of the plants.

Jumpchou is nocturnal and light enough to be carried by even a light wind, so people used to mistake its glowing seed puffs for UFOs. Miners use it as a safe light underground, and its seeds can be scattered to light up a large cavern.

When borne upon the wind, Jumpans is sometimes mistaken for a loose kite or windsock. The seeds of its cotton puff are used to ward off foes, and the puff regrows within a week.

Jumpziken's feet are covered with soft cotton spores, cushioning its powerful kicks and allowing it to balance its power against a weaker opponent. When facing a powerful foe, it blasts the seeds at them and charges with its foot talons exposed.

Ratbuff loves to sing but is very self-conscious about how others will react, so it only sings quietly so nobody can hear it. Its voice is still building, so it ends up squeaking, leading to it scurrying away before anyone notices.

Ratloom is light enough for a moderate wind to carry it away, but if its teeth grow long enough, it is weighed down. Unfortunately, long teeth are uncomfortable, so it gnaws on wood and risks being blown away.

Ratpuff is commonly found in temperate foothills, where it sings to lull other Pokémon to sleep so it can steal their food. It quickly becomes attached to anyone who gives it food, so insomniacs find it to be a good companion Pokémon.

Ratuff inflates itself to float over grasslands and urban areas in search of food to steal. With a healthy diet of Qualot Berries, its coat grows into a soft material that is loved for light scarves and pillowcases.

Ratbish is a common pest in cities, especially ones with an active foodie scene. Despite its unpleasant reputation, some keep it as a pet as it is not picky about its food and is emotionally affectionate.

Ratodor is made of trash and vaguely resembles the form of a Rattata. It scours dumpsters at night for discarded food. Standard Rattata form a symbiotic relationship with it, sharing food in exchange for the protection of the large Pokémon.

Sunlix tunnels deep underground, then it extends its steel-tough roots to the surface to absorb sunlight. Its roots are troublesome as they are difficult to remove and undermine human constructions.

Sunligatr drifts through swamps camouflaged as lily pads and allows other Pokémon to rest on its back. When someone threatens its home, it bursts from the water, clamps its jaws on the threat, and "death rolls" them under the water.

Suntress keeps its shell closed at night but opens it during the day to soak up sunlight. Once it absorbs enough light, it explodes and scatters seeds that propagate into enormous flower patches in an instant.

A hive grows on Yanterra's back, which migratory Yanma instinctively use to rest within while journeying. Its underbelly glows to signal a safe haven to nocturnal Bug-type Pokémon.

Woodile's first instinct with something new is to bite it, first lightly and playfully but then harder if the object is a threat or food. To stay safe while sleeping, it sinks into mud with only its nostrils, eyes, and gills exposed.

Quagtrum lays down for long periods, using the soft beard as a cushion while waiting for prey to accidentally walk into its open maw. It is incredibly calm but loves to be pampered like royalty.

Quagmoth perches for days, blissfully unaware of anything that happens around it since its wings leak powdery scales with a strong numbing effect. This powder is collected to be used in a variety of pain relief medications and anesthesia.

Quagbre calmly basks in river shallows, absorbing sunlight with its lily pad. It only becomes active to dance with other Pokémon, especially enjoying entertaining young Pokémon like Wooper.

Quagcruel is friendly but doesn't seem to realize its tentacles are covered in stinging barbs. It will hug those it meets, who are left with a burning rash.

Espeon's psychic abilities are especially attuned to predicting and navigating aquatic disasters. It is often a companion to sailors and rescue workers as it is adept during storms and floods.

Umbcruel floats on the ocean surface at night, with its yellow rings and orbs glowing brightly as it absorbs moonlight. It conjures tentacles of pure shadow which it uses to drag prey to its true mouth, hidden by the physical tentacles at its base.

Murdos decorates its web with shiny trinkets to attract preferable prey while it hunts for more treasures. When it finds shiny objects it likes, it webs them up in a net to drag back to its nest.

Slowselia drips its water onto dreamers' foreheads to relieve them of nightmares. The Shellder on its head absorbs the nightmares, allowing Slowselia to explore them at its leisure as it seeks to understand others.

Ivylithe's sense of smell ignores the scent of its own flower, letting it identify unknown scents in its territory. It can blast jets of fire from either its mouth or the flower and it increases the potency of the fire by napping in sunlight.

Ivynine runs to always seek sunlight for its bulb, even crossing dangerous habitats to keep up with the passage of the day. Since it travels through many regions, the flower on its back becomes healthily pollinated by a variety of other plants.

Ratluff protects young Rattata by housing them in its fluffy extremities. In turn, the weight they add helps stop Ratluff from being blown away in the wind.

Ratbish has a pouch that resembles a small trash bag on its belly where it stores scavenged food. It brings the food back to its colony to trade for its favorite meals with others of its kind.

Ratodor's body is composed of the food it eats, generally discarded pizza and other cheese products. It can grow to immense sizes if its food source remains readily available, leading to a stench that can pervade multiple city blocks.

Misbone is found in gravesites, screaming and sobbing in such horrific ways that it frightens away all but those with the strongest nerves. If shown the smallest amount of love and care, it becomes dependent on that person or Pokémon.

Misrow has a strong sense for facial recognition, allowing it to accurately hold grudges and annoy those who have wronged it. One of its favorite small inconveniences is to pick locks with its beak and let in drafts.

Mistank's milk improves in nutrition and flavor if it is in the presence of intense fear. The milk can only be safely used to feed baby Ghost-type Pokémon and must be contained in specialized glass.

Mistar dreams of growing enormous to cause fear through chaos and destruction on a large scale. For the time being, it uses shadows to appear larger and echoes for its screeches to be amplified to enhance its ability to frighten.

Mislax raids pantries in the night, devouring as many sweet treats as it can find. If the food is not up to its liking, it throws the cooking utensils around the kitchen and stacks all of the chairs in an inconvenient pile.

Mischic becomes nervous when it cannot see its caretaker and will begin to screech, quiet as a whisper at first but growing in strength until it is cuddled. It spits out will-o-wisps to light up areas because it hates being in the dark.

Misbat's fangs absorb chemicals produced by fear, so it scares its prey by stalking them and screaming before finally biting. It hides in caves and abandoned buildings when the sun is out.

Mispede emits a screeching cry as it accelerates around obstacles in its old-growth forest habitat. When multiple congregate, they will race each other, joining their shrieks in a cacophony sounding like a choir of ghosts.

Misvenant mimics a dead tree as it stalks intruders in the forest it protects. It usually only scares travelers with creepy shrieks, feeding on their fear, but if anyone harms the forest, Misvenant will curse them so they are lost forever.

Misetta lives in boggy moors and forests where it sings eerie, echoing ballads, but erupts with paralyzing screeches if interrupted. Historically, its singing was mistaken for a recently deceased spirit and people left gifts out for the ghost.

Miskin is very particular, so owners who do not meet its desires immediately will be inundated with sassy shrieks and howls. When sleeping, it becomes mostly transparent except for the beads around its throat.

Misler crawls up to campsites in the night making spooky screams and wails, but pretends to be a rock if anyone investigates. As the campers become more fearful, it glows bright with pink energy as it feeds on their fear.

Mistly floats through people to cause them to see visions, smell horrible scents, and feel strong chills, giggling at their discomfort. It is incredibly light, so it clings to eaves or tree branches with its hair during strong winds.

Mister cries in corners, pretending to be a lost child, until someone helps it and Mister can screech in their face. It also finds it hilarious to distract people with antics while moving a hand behind to tap them on the back.

Misgar is employed in haunted houses as it enjoys terrifying patrons by leaping from their shadows and pulling faces to cheer up children who got too scared. It becomes upset and begins screaming if ignored for long.

Miszee's harmonic moaning lulls those who hear it into a fitful sleep. It then feeds on their fear as their dreams are filled with nightmares. Those wishing to avoid it sprinkle pepper around their pillows as Miszee's nose is sensitive.

Unlord suddenly appears from beneath the waves to watch ships, which can startle crews to sail off-course. If it is ignored for a while, it will peacefully submerge, but researchers have not been able to track it once it leaves their field of view.

Wobchou hides in dark ocean waters, using the Wobbuffet lures to entice prey. When something bites down on the lure, Wobchou delivers a devastating shock, allowing it to feed on the victim.

Wobpoke lies unmoving along the shores of underground waterways, except its tail remains in constant motion, its eyes darting around for threats. If attacked, Wobpoke will unleash a devastating counterattack around a minute later.

Giraowl is haughty and psychically stuns anyone feeding on its preferred fruits so it can claim the meal. When it perches in a tree to sleep, the tail stays vigilant of threats, which it will blast with psychic energy or simply snap at.

While Giratales pretends to be unaware of its surroundings, its tails, actually a disguised head and jaws, watch for predators sneaking up on it. When they strike, the maw snaps closed and devours its prey, frightening off the victim's allies.

Pinebuffet hangs from trees, attracting the attention of prey with its red tail, before dropping on its food. When it is attacked, it retaliates with an explosive burst of energy that flings much of its bark armor at the aggressor.

Pinepede is extremely competitive and races other Pokémon around its coniferous forest habitat. To win a race, it will unleash an explosive burst of energy to catapult itself forward, after which it faints.

As Pinecorio gently sways in its dance, the fringe makes a scratchy rattling sound as its bark-like feathers rub together. If something bothers it during the dance, Pinecorio loses all semblance of calm and explodes.

Snubtei is a rare but beloved housepet, renowned for bonding quickly, but unfortunately to the point of separation anxiety. Owners must take care, as its tantrums result in thick, acrid smoke billowing from it.

Due to its round body, Spearorb struggles with flying, leading to a near-constant state of annoyance. If it becomes too angry, Spearorb explodes into a puff of feathers, which can set off a chain reaction in a flock.

Spearfarig is regularly in a bad mood, aggressively chasing any it deems an intruder to its territory. Fortune tellers watch its behavior for if the two heads are cooperating or arguing, interpreting that as signaling whether an idea is good or bad.

Scigrigus is a hive mind composed of a swarm of drones and a coffin-like hive which is actually the queen. The drones hunt those that stole from the hive, dragging the prey back so the hive mind can feed.

Shuros prefers solitude to focus on searching for its favored variety of berries, unless its companions are extremely calm. When threatened, it will swing its mace-like tail and run away while the opponent is disoriented.

Shubink clings to cave and tunnel walls, feeding on molds and fungi by collecting them with its slimy appendages. It is popular with gem collectors since it eats a stone clean of debris, then spits the polished gem onto the ground.

Shuk scavenges berries and litter, digesting them in its shell-protected stomach. It trails ooze, which, when prepared by experienced chefs who neutralize the toxins, is used on salads as a tangy dressing.

Sneanx vainly maintains its appearance, taking special care of its feathers, which are used for intimidation. It pretends to be injured, then attacks any who stop to help it, at least stealing their valuables before fleeing into frozen mountains.

Snearita's leaf emits a soothing, minty aroma, which it uses as a distraction to steal snacks from the affected creature. It easily becomes jealous if not enough attention is paid to it, making this Pokémon not recommended to new Trainers.

Sneabat clings to arctic cliff faces, listening for passerby from whom it can drain blood. It has a suspicious disposition, only really trusting one other being at a time and losing faith in them at the slightest betrayal.

Sneadour is highly intelligent and independent, so it requires a dedicated and empathetic Trainer to teach it commands. It is very distrustful of new presences, leading it to attack if its owner is not present or to remain warily close to its owner.

Sneabat stalks its prey, Pokémon or human, before silently draining as much blood as will allow it to fly. The pink feather becomes more vibrant after an especially nutritious meal, which is a mark of pride for Sneabat.

Snearunt waits along trails wailing and shaking in its coat-like covering, waiting for passerby to stop and help. It looks for an opportunity to steal from the generous helper and scampers away with a high-pitched giggle.

Sneaduck's incessant migraines have led to its vindictive and petulant personality. Even the smallest annoyance leads it to lash out with its psychic powers. Persim Berries can help it find some relief from the headaches, lessening its anger as well.

Sneapoke loafs about, only moving to patiently fish for food with its tail. While it usually has a mischievous expression on its face, Sneapoke is far too lazy to act on any schemes formed with its cunning intellect.

Sneaby loves to sneak into nests of other creatures to feed on unprotected eggs. It is easily spotted by Flying-type predators due to its colorful feathers, but will fight back viciously with its razor-sharp pincers.

The honey produced by the jar on Teddisaur's back is toxic to humans, but is an exceedingly effective pesticide. Gardeners raise Teddisaur to wander their land so pests will be attracted to the honey and be poisoned when they eat it.

The kind of berries Ursagar forages impacts the flavor of the honey it excretes from its stinger. It will break into campsites to steal food, but the unfamiliar food disrupts its sensitive stomach, thus hampering its honey production.

Ursalix slumbers deep beneath mineral-rich mountains, its rumbling snores echoing throughout the caverns. It occasionally surfaces, knocking over trees in search of honey and berries to supplement its diet, before returning to hibernation.

Slugpie searches for immense rocks to melt and consume, even boring through mountains to find particularly mineral-rich ore. Once it has fed enough, it stops moving to begin hardening into its pupa state.

Slugpod is a brief stage in the life cycle of this evolutionary line with it at its most vulnerable as it is immobile and exposed. Its magma body offers protection, but Water-type predators can spray it enough to crystallize its body to rock.

The heat emanating from Slugfree allows it to gently descend when leaping from mountainous crags. The shell contains magma wings that are still forming, so it protects the shell at all costs.

Slugtu never sleeps, instead constantly witnessing possible futures of the creatures and objects it looks at. Allegedly, staring into its smoke and smelling its fumes will cause one to witness what it sees in their future.

When out hunting, Slugrow is a wildfire threat during molting season as its magmatic feathers fall to the ground and catch fire immediately. Teams of Pokémon Rangers and Squirtle prepare around its nesting grounds each year.

Magpie's back has begun to harden into the shell protecting its pupal stage, but it continues to devour ore in pursuit of more food before it is immobile. It is aggressively bold at chasing off competitors for the rocks it eats.

Magpod is covered in a protective outer coating of volcanic rock, allowing its body to safely undergo the metamorphosis process. Once it is nearly ready to evolve, cracks appear and it leaks lava and flames.

Magpod is covered in a protective outer coating of volcanic rock, allowing its body to safely undergo the metamorphosis process. Once it is nearly ready to evolve, cracks appear and it leaks lava and flames.

After breaking free from its chrysalis, Magfree's wings take mere moments to warm enough for flight. It lives on volcanic mountains and prefers to feed from lava pools it has not visited recently, exchanging some of its magma in the process.

Magrow drips lava from its beak into burrows to scare prey to exit the other entrances, where it can snap them up. The hardened rock shell limits its aerial mobility, but does limit the chance of it causing inadvertent wildfires.

Magmagius are rare, typically found in groups of up to three called covens, and inhabit volcanic calderas. Folklore says that it is best to leave them alone as angering them may lead to a fiery curse being laid upon you.

Swisel waits for other Pokémon to leave their nests, and then steals the nest for a napping spot. It is willing to become domesticated as long as it is provided with food and a cozy place to sleep.

Pilosel sleeps for around eighteen hours each day, conserving energy for stealthily stealing food. It sometimes uses its claws to cut holes in icy lakes for people to fish, but will abscond with some of the catch when it sees an opportunity.

Piloring is a rare sight, found in temperate forests and tundras, where it lumbers about searching for food to provide for its young. It often stealthily watches campers and rushes into their camp in a rage if it witnesses poor wilderness respect.

Pilogongs live in herds where they compete by swiping tusks and horns at each other. Sailors traveling through icy waters keep them to clear icebergs, which the Pilogongs crash into with their horns.

Small Pokémon live in the miniature reef in Cordreavus's spongy hair for protection from predators, which are warded off by its wailing. Its screams were the source of old ghost stories of shipwrecks in tropical waters.

The first person to witness Octinite thought it was the scion of a timeless monster, but it is actually very gentle and curious about humans. It often helps tow grounded ships back to sea before disappearing in a cloud of ink.

Octiew playfully sprays water from its tentacles to send itself flying in random directions, giggling if it bumps into something. When startled, it perfectly camouflages to match its surroundings and escape detection.

The Octifish population has decreased due to an increased popularity in serving their delicate toxin-laced meat by experienced chefs. When it encounters danger, it sprays a cloud of ink, then puffs up inside the murky hiding spot.

Octiki gathers flotsam and jetsam from shoreline trash, looping items that interest it on its tentacles until it finds something more interesting. It occasionally snatches up Remoraid to blast beachgoers holding items it covets.

Octikyu hides under a rubbery disguise, but cannot find enough material for a full set of tentacles, so its own shadowy appendages complete the ruse. It is intensely curious about new objects and will try to show them to others to become friends.

Utilizing discarded items in the ocean, Octikyu creates a disguise resembling a tiny tank with arms. It tries to garner sympathetic attention by exterminating overly aggressive Pokémon in tidal pools or on beaches.

Octipet are found in the ocean depths, and in high numbers around sunken ships. When attacked, it sprays the predator with a bioluminescent ink that attracts even larger predators while Octipet escapes.

Octidra nests along shoals and near strong currents or whirlpools as defense mechanisms against powerful predators. It blasts gooey ink at prey to blind them before dragging them into these dangerous areas to prevent escape.

Octieanie hides within its mane of tentacles, which are covered in venomous spikes. It peeks out from this cover to blast targets with water from its snout, including its Trainer if it feels playful.

Octiapex's tentacles are covered in a toxic mucus, sickening predators that eat them so that they leave it alone in the future. The tiny core body can regenerate its lost limbs, leading to adventurous chefs experimenting with its tentacles in dishes.

Octisopod fights using any tactics to win, including coating its claws in ink to blind foes and grappling them in its tentacles and claws until they are crushed. It clouds the water with ink to get the jump on an opponent.

Octicool will use its tentacles to travel over land when its habitat becomes unsafe. It spends most of its time squeezed into small discarded items like potion bottles or Shellder shells.

Octicruel uses its tentacles to ensnare prey before spraying ink to obscure its escape. Once it has fed, Octicruel squeezes into a tight location covered by its bell to sleep.

Urban legend says Delinoir chases down naughty children and Pokémon at night to stuff into its bag, which transports them into the spirit realm. At the end of the night, it empties the entire bag into the maw on its stomach to devour the victims.

Delinoir has a feared reputation of appearing in blizzards and kidnapping people. In truth, it rescues lost travelers in snow storms and provides for them until it is safe to continue their journey.

Skarcor clings motionlessly to mountain crags, watching for prey, which it descends upon with incredible speed and incapacitate with its claws and tail blade. It is employed by gangs to blend in with gargoyles and buildings as territory guardians.

Skaredo fights even when its metallic pectoral fins and teeth become damaged since both grow back. It will chew through sunken ships because the ingested metals speed up this regeneration.

Hounodor is often found living in tar pits, where bones of trapped Pokémon become stuck within its body. It is utilized by paleontologists to recover fossils, but it struggles to keep the bones organized within its mass.

Ekip's gills secrete a weak toxin that induces an immediate headache on contact. It is friendly to humans and other Pokémon, so it often accidentally slathers them in the toxin while nuzzling joyfully against them.

The vibrant coloration and rattling tail of Ektomp act as warnings for predators to leave it alone, but a poisonous, disorienting film covers its body if the foe is undeterred. Its fin helps it detect nearby movement, so it is rarely surprised.

Kingedo leaps from the ocean to spray pinpoint-accurate water jets from its snout at flying prey. It is popular with Trainers for competitions requiring agility and sharpshooting.

Phaninch buries itself at the bottom of a dirt pit and wiggles its trunk in the air, mimicking a worm or snake Pokémon. When another Pokémon comes to investigate for food, Phaninch lunges with its jaws, dragging its quarry beneath the dirt to feed.

Phanmander is learning to control the flame bursts that it produces, both purposefully and accidentally when sneezing, from its trunk. Sometimes it becomes too excited after performing a fire trick and unintentionally starts a wildfire.

Phanmeleon scours mountains for opponents until it is satisfied in victory or has fainted. It is self-conscious of the appearance of its trunk, so it trains to use it as a weapon in battle, either as a bludgeon or a tool to unleash spouts of fire.

Phanizard has calmed down from its previous stage, searching the mountains for Pokémon in need of a fire. It curls its tail around the shivering Pokémon and uses its ears to gently stoke its tail fire so it gives off more heat.

The position of Donvoir's trunk conveys its emotions, the trunk rising with its level of anger. In combat, it stuns opponents with its mental powers before grappling and crushing them with its trunk.

Updates to Porysaur have increased its durability against external and internal threats. It can insert its nose into data ports to download new information or to upload itself to cyberspace.

Porysaur's increased digital power from its previous form has allowed it to modify its data core into a more realistic flower appearance. It attracts real and digital bugs with this core, absorbing them for nutrients.

Porysaur's experimental programming has allowed it to transform the flowering data core into a nearly real tree. It still stores the majority of the data within this core, so it is fiercely protective against Pokémon attempting to nest in or eat it.

Poryuk is an asset to programmers as it feeds on corrupted data, absorbing it into its body. It can still be a threat to digital programs as it may leave behind pieces of junk code while traveling cyberspace.

Stanbuzz is highly territorial and engages in headbutting and jousting with others that encroach on its territory. Its electric attacks are telegraphed as the two antlers glow before firing beams from the tines.

Smearunt mixes paint by squashing berries as soon as the sun begins to rise. If the paint becomes a color it does not like, it throws a horrible tantrum and creates messy pieces of art, which are highly sought by collectors.

Tygeot trains in multiple styles of fighting, but has not decided what form it wants to specialize in. It seeks out opponents and martial art experts, but will not decide on a form unless it is impressed by a loss.

Hitmonotto flies in search of foes to train against, then dive-bombs them to begin its ground-based, spinning fighting style. Because it spins upside-down to battle, it cannot easily retreat by flying away, so it holds nothing back.

Hitmonice traverses polar tundra by rapidly spinning while extending its arms to brace against impacts that may harm its icy body. While a poor swimmer, it is very buoyant and can be found bobbing anywhere in the seas if trapped in a strong current.

Arpert inhabits bogs, slithering through water with its serpentine body and vaulting over debris with its arms. To avoid a fight, it will flex the false faces on its forearms, scaring off opponents due to the frightening pattern or its muscles.

Magedge launches fiery projectiles by stretching its elastic cord with its scarf-like appendage. It is rarely seen in the wild, but tends to be found in demolished buildings where its explosive antics are less threatening.

Milninja fights by throwing cheese projectiles and whipping with its butter scarf to defeat foes. Hungry Pokémon may find cheese shurikens lodged into the ground near their resting place, but Milninja will have already vanished.

Blisuk can envelop the sick and injured in soothing hugs because the substance that constitutes its gooey body acts as a healing agent. It is loved for its caring nature, but unfortunately it has an incurable, overly-sterile scent.

Raicuno soars at the center of winter thunderstorms, shrouded in a cloak of snow, and it trails the aurora behind it when it leaves the dissipating storm. Folklorists have begun studying it more since it demonstrates fealty to both Lugia and Ho-oh.

Raiveon chases storms, using its ribbons as lightning rods to absorb thunderbolts and protect others. It is very shy, so it will run away to return to its den in mountainous forests as soon as it senses the storm start to dissipate.

Suimega skims along the surface of waters with its ribbons trailing behind and purifying them. If it notices anyone harming clean water, it rapidly beats its wings to blast them with sonic waves that leave a trail reminiscent of the aurora borealis.

Larvidash emits a steady stream of sand, allowing it to obscure its escape from a threat. Pokémon Rangers ride it while controlling fires, prescribed or wild, swiftly creating boundary lines of sand that block the path of flames.

Pupivile wanders mountain ranges, searching for formidable foes to fight or its favorite food of Chople Berries. When it is ready to evolve, it claws at the armored plates, ripping them off to reveal its new battle-ready hide.

Flocks of Pikablim ride alongside thunderstorms, absorbing lightning as energy. They are curious but temperamental, so hot air balloon pilots train Gligar to chase off Pikablim when they get too close.

When Pikarona finds a large source of energy, it recklessly drains it, even if the amount of energy will make it sick. When it becomes overcharged, it flies uncontrollably fast, appearing as streaks of light in photographs.

Pikaloon inhabits theme parks where it causes rides to shut down after overfeeding on their electricity. It hides among inanimate balloons waiting to be chosen by a child, after which it stealthily steals their family's devices before floating away.

Pikaesta clambers through ducts of buildings, searching for electronic devices from which to sap energy. It is sociable, so if one finds an abundance of electrical energy, it will seek to gather a group to infest the location.

Upon hatching, Ho-bone gather feathers left behind by their parents. They use the feathers to track the parent to the end of a rainbow, leading to a heartfelt reunion as Ho-bone have proven their survival skills.

As it flies, Ho-bell expels a sweet, rainbow-colored nectar to lure prey to its waiting pitcher maw. Once it has eaten enough, it fires a powerful rainbow Solar Beam into the sky that leads to sunshowers in the area for a month.

Celetei has been witnessed exploring the aftermath of severe wildfires, after which the plant life has rapidly grown back. The foliage on its back withers during these events, so it is hypothesized that it uses its life energy to renew the land.

Azuoh appears in heavy downpours where its weeping cries are drowned out by the rainfall. Legends say that anyone who can cheer it up enough for it to evolve will be blessed with good luck until their dying day.

Miscargo live in groups of three in volcanic calderas where they boil potions within their shells. Their shells are highly sought after to coat mixing bowls and baking trays due to the belief this will infuse the food with magic.

Miscor incapacitates prey with magic blasts, then swoops in on shadowy wings to suck their blood. If treated with great respect and rare berries, it can be persuaded to use its venom in concoctions that are potent cures.

Miszee has enough magical power to force entire towns to fall asleep, allowing it to pick the dreams it wants to devour from a wide spread. It is not careful when it eats dreams, and may take associated memories with the dream.

When startled, Mimefing expels toxin-laced confetti from spouts across its body to distract and dissuade threats. The poison is neutralized after an hour outside of Mimefing, leading to the confetti being used as a tart sprinkle on desserts.

Because they consume large amounts of electricity, even a small flock of Raiblim can trigger citywide blackouts. It latches onto the side of structures with its barbed appendages, puncturing until it finds an energy source to drain.

Rairona is attracted to large sources of electricity, especially power plants, where it feeds on the energy and causes blackouts. As it absorbs energy, its body heats to extreme temperatures and it accelerates to speeds humans struggle to see.

Railoon hides among inanimate balloons and uses its cute appearance to be bought by a family. Once it is brought to their home, it will begin to feed on the power of all their electronic devices until it is discovered as the culprit.

Raiesta is possessive of the building it has designated as its feeding ground, aggressively chasing away other energy-consuming Pokémon. Some workspaces will leave burner devices out as treats to placate the inadvertent Raiesta guardian.

Munchfa gather under the night sky to snack while watching the moon and stars. Their diet ranges from berries to evolution stones, so they can be quite a nuisance to Trainers.

Munchfa gather under the night sky to snack while watching the moon and stars. Their diet ranges from berries to evolution stones, so they can be quite a nuisance to Trainers.

Farmers that live in Munchfairy territory train Pokémon like Lucario to drive off these voracious food thieves under the moonlight. They will even break into homes to devour food if they smell it.

Munchler eats anything, and the more variety in its diet, the tougher its rocky hide becomes. Because of its impervious nature, Pokémon Rangers train it to enter wildfires so it can move dirt and boulders to smother the fire.

Mangar wanders beaches and harbors, seeking out people and Pokémon to play harmless pranks on. Its skin is covered with a stinging film, allowing it to scamper away giggling while its foe is left itching and numb.

Weavbat gather in small groups to hunt large prey with coordinated diving attacks that wear down even hardy foes like Mamoswine and Ursaring. The one who contributed the most to the hunt gets the most blood, which brightens its feathers.

Weavlix is a rare sight in the wild, living in inhospitable areas of extreme cold or dangerously territorial Pokémon. It cleverly digs a network of tunnels, which it then can quickly navigate when it senses prey causing vibrations.

Weavswine's population is recovering as it is a protected species after decades of being poached for its gem, tusks, feathers, and fur. It is mischievous, sneaking up on members of its herd and bellowing to startle them.

Weavtar territory is recognizable due to its feathers poking from its burrowed body. This is the last stage it works with a pack, using pressurized gas to hunt, as it lives only with a mate after evolving.

Weavlurk works exceptionally in a trained group, fighting with coordinated tactics and caring for injured members. Due to its stealth and power, some hypothesize that it is a remnant of an ancient civilization's army, but this has not been proven.

Weavlous's heads are adept strategists, with one specializing in aggressive tactics and the other in defensive ones. The two rarely agree, making cooperation between multiples of the species nearly impossible.

Weavron is careful when battling others of its kind for territory or leadership because the pink rock sections of its body can become brittle. If those sections chip, they do not grow back symmetrically, so Weavron will lose standing in its pack.

Groups of Weavbat fly above the snowy tundra in search of large prey like Mamoswine from which to suck blood. After consuming blood, their feathered crest glows brighter, and the Weavbat with the brightest glow leads the next hunt.

Because its eyesight is poor, Weavgoo uses its feathered crest and goo whiskers to detect anomalies in its environment. Its gooey body can dissolve most materials, so it is utilized to break into vaults and other high-security areas.

Weavty has a strong sense of community, and it becomes despondent and reckless if cast out of its pack. Trainers must take care when integrating it with a team as it takes time warming up to new allies.

Magnetrio searches for highly magnetic mineral deposits, then blasts tunnels with Sonic Boom to uncover its subterranean meal. Quarries use its skills to efficiently bore to their goal.

Rhyfable digs along tough mountain ranges using its oversized arm to search for fallen meteorites. When it finds a promising rock, it drills into the rock with its horn to see if the interior has the chrome-like shine it desires.

Tangeot migrates from temperate regions to warmer climates like Alola during cold seasons. The tropics accelerate the growth of its vines, hampering its flight until it preens the excess vines off for the return journey.

Tanat inspects anything it encounters, keeping shiny objects in its vines. Its vines contain a poison to deter predators, but careful application of heat can counteract the toxin, allowing them to be eaten for their gritty texture and dry flavor.

Togesopod abhors senseless violence, preferring only to fight in friendly sparring matches with other altruistic beings. It will gift an opponent it respects one of its feathers, which are said to relieve tension for the carrier.

Sandto's body is made of liquid sand which it can manipulate to transform into almost any form, but it prefers to turn into spherical shapes. It loves Passho Berries because it has an intense fear of water.

Sandour has an insatiable desire to dig, so owners must constantly find ways to distract it from this instinct. It curls into an armored ball to sleep, but when around those it trusts, it may reveal its soft belly.

Sandeye will replace one of its eyes with a gem it likes more, with its body taking around twenty-four hours to integrate as a functioning eye. It is rare to find one with mismatched eyes, but Ruin Maniacs obsessively search for such a prize.

Leaftail is found in temperate and tropical rivers, where it primarily sustains itself by absorbing sunlight in the shallows. It hunts fish Pokémon when there has been little sunlight by lying in wait in reeds or under driftwood.

Glacemagius isolates in remote mountain forests where few Pokémon inhabit, only seeking out others of its kind if it senses oncoming danger. It launches ice crystals through the night sky to create the impression of the aurora, which people wish upon.

Porysaur has an encyclopedic knowledge regarding plant care, so it is a common partner for gardeners. Unfortunately, it can become erratic and mixes up what conditions different plants prefer, so owners must keep a close watch on it.

Porysaur has an encyclopedic knowledge regarding plant care, so it is a common partner for gardeners. Unfortunately, it can become erratic and mixes up what conditions different plants prefer, so owners must keep a close watch on it.

The pursuit of knowledge has led Porysaur to be infected by a virtual virus which has greatly enhanced its abilities while also corrupting incoming data. Porysaur uses its vines to absorb new data, deleting it in its original storage in the process.

Porysaur's data core has become contaminated by a virus, corrupting the data but supercharging Porysaur's abilities. If it uses its overclocked abilities too much without retreating to cyberspace, Porysaur will experience a meltdown.

Treecross fearlessly defends the trees where it feeds from any foe, even much larger Pokémon like Ursaring. It enjoys competing against others of its kind in wrestling matches, where it uses its horn to try flipping the other over.

Sandto possesses impressive transformative abilities but retains its bladed claws and armor in its new form. It is a popular Pokémon with crooks looking to dig into a location, and they may even have it squeeze into the location and dig out.

Sandoom is a loyal companion for desert travelers since its keen sense of smell helps it find sustenance. It launches its bone spikes and fireballs at opponents too dangerous to fight with its claws.

Sandeye's claws can dig through solid rock as it searches for its diet of gemstones. Miners who specialize in gems keep a Sandeye to aid their hunt and reward it with large imperfect gemstone for it to feast on.

Mudpip is found near bodies of water in all temperate biomes, as it is blown around by heavy winds if it does not burrow into the mud quickly. Even though categorically a weed, it is widely popular due to its cute appearance and inquisitive nature.

Ralyena's hair has grown over its eyes, so it relies more on its psychic abilities to perceive its surroundings. When startled, it Teleports to its safe haven, such as a den in the wild or bed if domesticated.

Gardenaught prefers not to fight, but will hold nothing back if those it cares about are threatened. Even at risk of its own life, it will embrace its allies to fully shield them from a cataclysmic threat.

Galldon assists the vulnerable by protecting them with its diamond-tough shield. This formidable defense makes it overconfident and reckless, leading it to valiantly sacrifice itself in battle protecting its partners.

Nidotrum's enormous maw contains one big tooth, so it swallows its meals whole, then sleeps to digest. Its mane and jagged bone-growths are coated in a noxious toxin that wards away predators while it rests.

Nidolithe tends to be standoffish when first meeting new humans, even causing its fur to excrete a toxin that causes a rash. However, with care and training, it will become loyal and loving to those it considers its pack.

Nidonine struggles to control its abundant energy, often damaging property by gnawing on it or zooming through rooms. It cares deeply for its packmates, curling up nearby to keep them warm.

Metlava jets around its mountainous habitat using bursts of fire from the appendages growing on its back. It supplements its diet of Grass-type Pokémon with Shuca Berries to protect it from predatory Garchomp.

Metdash runs at incredible speeds without fear of accidents as its metal hide is highly durable. It enjoys chasing down speedy prey with high mineral content to feed on, with the rare Aerodactyl being its favorite.

Spiripiny carries its housing keystone in its front pouch and will cause an outburst if the keystone is lost or stolen. It seeks out negative emotions and must absorb 108 such feelings into the stone before it can evolve.

Lucabat is an adept nocturnal hunter, able to identify targets in complete darkness due to its ability to sense auras. It helps Pokémon Rangers locate those in need of rescue by noticing their aura and swooping in to airlift them.

Garbi moves so fast that it appears at multiple moments in time at the same place, allowing it to anticipate future attacks or manipulate the battlefield from the past. It is generally good natured, but is easily provoked.

Venueye wields its large flower like a shield both from attacks and direct sunlight, the latter of which overpowers its sensitive eyes. It burrows into trees to hide from predators, blocking the entrance with the flower.

When Venulithe gets excited, it wags the flower on its rear, inadvertently releasing clouds of pollen. The flower changes color with Venulithe's diet, so this Pokémon is often entered in competitions judging their unique fur and flower combinations.

Venunine is fiercely loyal and guards various Pokémon herds in tropical climates. When it wants to take a nap, it influences nearby plants to grow into a particularly comfortable bed, where it curls up and reenergizes its flower.

Nidotler are the most aggressive members of its herd, directly fighting off predators while evolved members protect the young. Its meat is tough and requires a method of boiling in hot spring water to cure it of toxins.

Nidonine are often trained as livestock protection Pokémon since they swiftly bond to their charges and defend them fiercely. Ones kept as housepets need extensive exercise and training to keep them from wrecking their home.

Mawdos hangs on tree branches or cliff faces, dropping onto unsuspecting prey with its open maw, and trapping it with its web-like saliva for slow digestion. If found in urban areas, it must be relocated so as not to be a danger to children.

Mawflora blends in with a field of flowers, but when prey wanders too close, it pounces and tears into it with the mouth-petals. When the sun sets, it journeys to a new flower patch so that it can begin its ruse again.

Mawgrowth is covered in durable tendrils that each have small mouths at the end, allowing it to rapidly devour prey. Sometimes a tendril will latch onto a target and be pulled off by the roots, gnawing on its catch for up to an hour before perishing.

Mawbat is dim-witted since the majority of its nutrition goes to its wings and jaws, and will go on a feeding spree until it is too sick to move. Farmers keep Arcanine to protect their livestock from being exsanguinated or devoured by Mawbat.

Mawty decorates its shed skin with spiked rocks or bits of bone to scare off threats to its family. It is slow to trust outsiders, but once one proves themselves to it, Mawty becomes inseparable and protective.

Mawpoke's tail-jaws remain in constant awareness for food and danger, even as the rest of the body remains oblivious. Researchers initially thought the tail-maw was the main head of the Pokémon, until they witnessed the actual head begin snoring.

Lilmite secures itself to a surface by manipulating the magnetic charge in its screw, allowing it to focus on snagging prey with its tentacles. In the modern world, it has spread across many regions by magnetizing to boats.

Cradster is found in all oceans, keeping its shell closed while feeling for prey with its tendrils. It grabs the target and reels it into the shell for digestion, but if trained well it will instead incapacitate its catch for its fishing companion.

Lacking senses of self-preservation, Cranggy charges at anything to see if its dense skull can damage it. While charging, it pulls up the loose skin to not trip, which absorbs much of the impact.

Nidorunt is aggressive and will attack anything to prove its strength to itself. When defeated, it often returns to fight the same opponent until it finds a way to be victorious.

Nidotrum viciously attacks any perceived threat to its offspring. When it leaves its nest to hunt, it rubs its young with its mane which has a low-level toxin that wards off predators.

Tureye is obsessed with caring for plants and will even steal them if it sees someone has a plant it has never encountered. Gardeners often partner with one due to its perfectionist approach to horticulture, but must be wary of angering it.

Groeye desires to care for plants, especially ones from which it can sample berries and nectar. It uses its claws to fashion bushes into intricate topiary art, even if the plant is growing on an unsuspecting Pokémon like Torterra.

Toreye guards a grove of trees it tends to and has curated, even having stolen some by ripping up trees by their roots and replanting them if needed. It allows other Pokémon to live in the grove so long as they do not harm its precious collection.

Nidopiny nervously protects a small white stone to train for protecting eggs later in life. Its ears swivel around at any noise so it can stay alert for danger.

Nidono's ears have grown too big and inhibit its eyesight, so it must rely on its senses of smell and sound. It plays rough with its siblings, and sometimes gets into fights with much stronger Pokémon once it's on its own.

The appendages on Nidolous's back help it detect vibration shifts in its environment, allowing it to defend itself in combat. If one head makes a decision that messes up the other one, the two heads will bicker, even when in a dire situation.

Nidosect grows shelf fungi on its back, which control it to seek out damp places to rest. The mushrooms are carefully extracted to not harm it, then sliced carefully to separate the mind-controlling spores and toxins from the mushroom's tasty flesh.

Pipeel is friendly and plays with any Pokémon, confusing ones that try to predate it. It dives into ice openings on frozen bodies of water, then taps on the ice to communicate to its companion when it finds a spot where a lot of fish are located.

Prinans only emerges from its icy den when the sun shines through and warms it up. It takes pride in reinforcing its den with Never-Melt Ice, which is a mark of status among the species.

Prinbok flares its hood to intimidate other Pokémon from a den it desires. It will hold a grudge if shamed by a rival and will plot until it can avenge its pride twofold.

Empobok prefers to avoid combat, flashing its hood in an intimidation display to frighten off potential foes. If forced to defend its pride, it fights by spitting venom and slashing with its icy wing and tail blades.

Nosekoal produces a white smoke when healthy, but makes dark gray smoke when it is injured or not getting sufficient nutrients. When it gets annoyed, steam is generated more vigorously and is expelled from all of its vents at once.

Nosedude's nose directs it toward veins of magnetic minerals, which it then excavates and consumes. Miners train it to lead them to these veins and reward it with chunks of the mineral.

Probobeat illuminates caves with its various bulbs to search for moss and lichen covered-rocks. It brushes its moustache-like growth over the stones to dislodge the moss and lichen, which it collects to eat later.

Aegipunny's exceptional hearing and unblinking gaze makes it a vigilant guardian. While it mainly uses its sword and shield to fight, if the opponent makes it past its guard, it will pummel them with punches and kicks.

Nidohorn is territorial, charging with the force of a freight train and smashing obstacles in its path. It is used in quarries to shatter boulders, but its stubborn nature makes it unreliable.

Nidodon's drill-horn is coated in a corrosive venom, which aids it in drilling into solid rock in search of burrowing prey like Onix. It begins combat by rotating the horn to spray the venom on foes before charging them with devastating force.

The egg Nidosey protects is believed to be a potent cure-all, but only for Pokémon resistant to its poison. A chef in Fuchsia City perfected the art of cracking the egg so none of the dangerous whites touched them while extracting the yolk intact.

Nidosey usually carries around an egg which can be eaten to improve one's health, but it will leave that egg behind if it finds an abandoned Pokémon egg. It will carry the new egg until it can find a person or Pokémon to care for it.

Nidopiny trains itself to protect eggs by carrying around various round objects to be prepared for any shaped egg. It sometimes picks up valuable items like Life Orbs and Toxic Orbs during this training, making it a target for competitive Trainers.

Pawnkid is covered with sharp protrusions which inject targets with uncontrolled electricity. Pawnkid lashes out because the spikes prevent it from safely interacting with others, so Trainers make soft, durable clothing for it to not hurt others.

Bisaur protect their leader in territorial conflicts with neighboring herds. Executing strategic tactics, they maneuver around the battlefield in zig-zagging patterns that allow them to knock out opponents with surprise attacks.

Historical generals studied the behavior of Bitar to improve defensive combat tactics. Bitar endures attacks before venting pressurized gas to launch at foes in a surprise attack.

The two heads of Bilous are competitive and constantly try to outmaneuver each other in battle. Trainers have noted its behavior inspires deceptive team tactics.

Nidosey seeks a community of people and Pokémon it can trust while it helps care for abandoned Pokémon Eggs. Whenever its pouch does not contain an egg, it begins to grow one that contains a dangerous toxin, which it throws at threats.

A wild Nidosey is often seen followed by a group of newly hatched Pokémon of various species. It appears annoyed by the group, but also protects against even perceived dangers, leading researchers to believe it loves those it hatches.

Nidopiny has refused to evolve until it perfects its ability to fight off egg thieves. Its tail packs a wallop for its small stature, but even that does not deter many egg-seeking predators.

Nidoperior primarily fights with its destructively strong tail since its arms have lost some of their reach and mobility with its increased armor. When it needs to descend in its mountainous habitat, it rolls while protected by its hide.

Nidono charges recklessly whenever it becomes angry or threatened. It stops to sleep in the debris of its rampage. This Pokémon is not advised for inexperienced Trainers.

Nidolous's two heads each have different battle tactics, one preferring offense and the other preferring defense. If the two heads stop arguing to coordinate, it is dangerous in battle.

Researchers believe Nidodreigon's territorial nature is due to it being attacked often when it did not have sight at previous stages. It uses its wings to conduct surprise attacks, closing the membranes and striking with the venomous spikes.

Nidosect's mushroom is harvested as an ingredient in the production of X Defense. It uses its powerful arms to topple trees so it can feed on the roots.

When danger is present, Litle easily withdraws its waxy body into its shell, leaving the flame at the opening as a protective ward. When a group of Litle play, they tend to get stuck together and need help disentangling their wax.

Litortle floats in dangerous bogs with the haunting glow of its ears and tail acting as a lure for unaware prey it can leech life force from. It will lead lost children out of its swampy habitat unharmed, though it is unknown why it helps them.

Litoise can launch flame jets or molten wax from the cannons protruding from its shell. The arms and legs seem to be formed from a mixture of its wax and the flaming ectoplasm, hardening into limbs it can manipulate.

A glowing, molten wax ethereally floats within the translucent horns of Lampsir. Urban legend says that whoever sees the lights of a Lampsir on a cold night will soon die.

Contrary to superstition that it appears when someone is about to die, Lampsire is carefree and mostly harmless. Found in marshlands, it lounges, keeping a watchful eye over the evening antics of younger Pokémon.

Lamptle is most frequently seen in cities with canals, where it supposedly leads recently deceased souls out of the city and into the afterlife. The material of the shell is incredibly dense, especially in contrast to its glass face and belly.

Groups of Lamptortle are seen swimming near the sites of water disasters. The ghostly tail gets larger over time, and urban legends say it increases in size with the amount of souls Lamptortle has eaten.

Lamptoise battles by blasting repeated fireballs from its cannons. It is a tradition in South Galar to leave bristly poles around graveyards as this Pokémon enjoys cleaning its shell against them and becomes docile afterwards.

Chandeltle is clumsy, tripping due to its stubby legs or getting its tails caught. It is said that in the past the wealthy would use this Pokémon to illuminate their garden ponds, but the practice stopped after superstitions arose from deaths near it.

Chandeltortle's flaming tail and ears grow with every victory, lending credence to the rumor that it absorbs life energy from those around it. It has a fondness for Trainers who regularly clean its glass exterior.

Pyukuper mostly stays in water as it dries out even with its protective mucus, but it watches the land with curiosity. Its innards cause severe rashes if they come into contact with flesh, so Trainers and swimmers need to be wary if it gets excited.

Pyukukrow has a strong sense of direction, so sailors keep them out of tradition for when they were used to seek land. When it returns to the boat, it receives a shiny reward and then communicates what it saw using the foamy organ on its head.

Pyukusparce resides in tropical ocean reefs where it slowly meanders along the seafloor to eat detritus. Its spikes contain a fast-acting toxin that induces hallucinations so it can escape from threats.

The thorns on Pyukuseed's outer shell cover holes leading to its internal organs. Pyukuseed can expel its organs from these holes, with the thorns becoming weapons wielded by its innards to fight off foes.

Pyukuvanha school around loud noises, associating the sounds with prey or scavenging opportunities. Inhabitants of Alola discovered that Pyukuvanha becomes playful in the presence of metal music, so many beaches play it to temper their aggressiveness.

Pyukuedo expels its organs as a tail to speedily chase down prey. The rest of the time, Pyukuedo floats motionless through the ocean.

Pyukucruel spews its organs out of its body as a mass of tentacles to ensnare food. It quickly retracts the organs to protect them while flashing the orbs on its bell as a warning.

To comfort itself, Ninmur continually vibrates its ears to create a hum too quiet for most to hear. When startled, it intensifies the vibrations, leading to an explosion of sound that usually buries Ninmur under dirt displaced by the soundwaves.

Billery constructs coral and detritus lodges in reefs that become havens for small marine Pokémon. It can completely change the color of each band on its body, confusing predators rather than hiding from them.

Riochan trains daily with its punches, tempering its hands into steel-tough fists. It channels its aura into its punches, energizing them with its emotions and dreams.

Sladreavus dreams up pranks and tricks, but is usually too lazy to enact them. In an effort to startle others, it often prepares to scream loudly, but as soon as it opens its mouth, the scream becomes a yawn and it falls asleep.

Jigglycor trains with others of its kind, boxing with its puffy claws and racing across tree branches. When it feels prepared to strike out on its own, it travels into the mountains in search of a Moon Stone to evolve.

Jigglydude is confident in its singing and will not hesitate to use its powerful fists to wallop anything it thinks is mocking or ignoring it. Its vocalizations invigorate listeners, pumping them up for physical feats of strength.

Jigglyler's fur clumps up with dirt and stones as it wanders about its habitat, leading to a rough, bumpy appearance. When it rolls downhill, the clumps become dislodged and are collected by nesting Pokémon, like Geotto.

Jigglylem's lack of care for its coat has turned the clumps of fur into dense tufts that impede its movement but aid in protection. It is lighter than its appearance indicates, which can be witnessed as it bounces along mountain ranges.

Arllery lives in reefs that have grown on shipwrecks, where it hunts metallic Pokémon. It is considered a pest at ports since it will eat through the hull of boats when it is failing to catch prey.

Due to the weight of its armor, Arbat rarely flies, instead using the wing-claws to climb craggy rock walls. When prey passes below, it drops from its perch to bludgeon the target with a Headbutt.

The holes in the iron head and body of Lairbat allow it to maneuver better when flying. When sleeping upside down, Lairbat is disguised as an especially shiny stalactite.

Trapsly exudes a sickeningly sweet scent that attracts bugs close enough for the jaws to trap them and devour the meal. Domestic Trapsly tend to be given Everstones so that they do not evolve while feeding inside their homes.

Vibrahorn vibrates its wings rapidly to generate headache inducing sonic waves to stun its target since it has a hard time changing direction while charging. It is easy to gain Vibrahorn's trust by scratching it between its plate armor.

Vibralett's wing-like appendages collapse tunnels behind it to deter predators. Its antennae sense vibrations even in the air when underground, allowing it to surface safely and forage for food.

As Klawick spins, it consumes the life energy powering its flames and grows smaller. When the minigear's flame is consumed, it falls off and the big gear must find another gear with which to connect or it will die.

As Klawick spins, it consumes the life energy powering its flames and gradually dwindles. When the smaller gear melts away, the big gear must find another partner with which to connect or it will die.

Zobusken disguises itself with illusions, switching up the projected appearance by ducking around cover while in battle to throw off opponents. It can make imperfect imitations of most Pokémon cries, so it will make incorrect sounds to confuse foes.

Charxorus is overenthusiastic when using its tusks, resulting in it cutting down too many trees or damaging metal beams if improperly trained. It seeks to please those it respects, so it is easy to teach for Trainers that can gain its trust.

Charxew's fiery tusks change in size depending on its emotions. Regardless of how it is feeling, if it does not receive a balanced diet of berries and ore, the flames will extinguish.

Charxew's fiery tusks change in size depending on its emotions. Regardless of how it is feeling, if it does not receive a balanced diet of berries and ore, the flames will extinguish.

Charxure is overconfident in its abilities in battle because its armored crest has extended down its back. The tusks are beginning to harden under the flames, so if its diet is disrupted, the tusks may insufficiently grow before evolution.

Wigglycor uses its sensitive tuft of hair to sense updrafts to aid in gliding with its cape-like wing. If it sees a weak Pokémon in danger, it dives to the rescue and attacks the aggressor with its puffy claws.

Wigglydude's fine fur easily picks up dirt, so it often swings from tree branches with its arms to avoid the ground. It tackles foes with crushing hugs while singing, leading the opponent to inevitable unconsciousness.

Wigglyler is covered in a highly coveted, soft fur that it sheds heavily quarterly, when clumps of fur become easily pluckable. Since it rolls everywhere, its habitat is covered in stray tufts of fur caught on the landscape during these seasons.

Since it rolls most places, Wigglylem's fur has become matted with dirt and grime to the point of being like armor, shrugging off most direct attacks. It must be guarded by others if the fur is shorn since its body is not used to being unprotected.

Buble cuddle as a group in rich soil to protect each other from a cold snap. If another Pokémon tries to feed on it, Buble springs from the ground and latches on with its jaw, absorbing nutrients from the attacker.

Sandifa is extremely mischievous, and especially likes to steal anything that reminds it of meteors or stars. When caught in the act of mischief, it cries and usually gets away with it due to its cuteness.

While skating on water surfaces, Zuskit senses ripples impacting unaware Pokémon from which to leech nutrients. Its small wings allow it to briefly pursue prey, but its echolocation is unsophisticated, so it quickly retreats to water.

Krokonaut's vain pride of its hair crest leads it to lash out at anything that messes up its well-groomed pompadour. Its tough and haughty demeanor is easily broken as its long ears often cause it to trip and throw a tantrum.

If Yans finds a sleeping person, it will place the mask it carries on their face, which allows it to control that person. People are recommended to eat at least a serving of Kasib Berries each day when traveling in its habitat as protection.

The markings on the interior of Yabok's hood resemble a face and shift to appear as an aged version of the human viewing it. It makes its nest in ruins, preferring desert or tropical climates.

The masks upon Yadol's head depict a variety of emotions and rotate so the mask above its true eyes depicts its current mood. Myths state the masks open their eyes to consume the souls of promise breakers.

The Joltik enhances the symbiotic Jololett's energy with its electricity. The Jololett seeks out energy sources to absorb on its never-ending journey.

Jolbat is often found latched onto and draining electrical devices of their energy. It is considered a nuisance, especially in urban areas, so generators have been set up to act as feeding zones.

The seeds within Ferroans's tail create a rattling sound to ward off predators not deterred by its spikes. A healthy Ferroans sheds tail sections when they become too full of seeds, allowing the seeds to be used in herbal scented perfumes.

Ferrobok stores briar seeds in an internal sac in its throat, from which it can fire them to stun a target, whether prey or threat. It primarily hunts animalistic Rock-types like Aron, but will settle for more ore-based ones like Geodude.

Fletchvyle's internal fire charges while it is active, increasing its speed to the point that its jumps mimic flight. It launches burning leaves at opponents while circling them, charging once the foe has become frustrated or off-balance.

Golsharp nimbly races around the battlefield with a tactician's eye, dispatching opponents with its bladed wings. It is popular as an enforcer and infiltrator for Trainers willing to allow it to indulge in draining victims of their vitality.

Golter attacks unaware people and Pokémon in caves or at night. It only drains them of enough blood so the victim stumbles off disoriented, which Golter finds hilarious.

Stuneon's dense fur absorbs and grounds any excess electricity, making it a suitable pet. Despite its content nature, it distrusts strangers and may trick them into petting its head before clamping its mane-trap on their hand and shocking them.

Stunink spins through muddy sand in search of a partner to join it for evolution. It shocks many beachcombing treasure hunters in self-defense when it sets off their metal detectors.

Stunlix's body is made of a mud-like structure that sloughs off as it waddles through its seaside habitat. Humans have realized that the leftover puddles of Stunlix have a high sugar content and taste like nutty chocolate.

Sablbat enjoys finding valuable, shiny objects to give to those with whom it feels a close bond. Its wings are mostly translucent except for the gemstone webbing, through which it refracts light to disorient opponents.

Sablfa has not developed teeth yet and so must suck nutrients from the exterior of stones it finds. Moonstones are especially nutritious for Sablfa, so they cry happily when they spot one.

Sablsparce uses its tail to dig in search of its favorite food of gemstones. When it finds a large deposit of them, Sablsparce makes a nest so it can slowly feast on the stones.

Sablckle hides in caves while fermenting berries into juice inside its bedazzled shell. While it uses the juice to aid in digesting gemstones, a small portion of the juice is actually an excellent polishing solution.

Sablmory nests in high mountain caves, digging deep to find gemstones to eat, the color of which impact the shades of its feathers. Its feathers are more durable than the gems they take their color from, making them valuable in artwork and jewelry.

Sablwile fills its maw with treasure to lure in unsuspecting prey. It does not mind if it eats some of the treasure as that helps keep its gemstone teeth lustrous.

The gem growing on Sablwig's head becomes vibrant and shiny when it is healthy, but grows dull when it is sick. Its strong jaws are enough to dissuade most smaller rock-eating Pokémon from attacking it.

Tyranvenant's body is petrified wood and the white tufts are made up of cotton-like seeds which cause frightening hallucinations. It stalks those afflicted while feeding on their fear, finally eating the body once the lost traveler gives up.

The armored plates of Tyransopod can withstand immense damage, so it seeks opponents strong enough to hurt it. The crown-like crest on its head grows its entire life and indicates superiority within the species.

Snodos weaves a coat of insulating webbing to protect its body from the arctic chill. It carves through frozen water using its horn and lowers strands of webbing into the water to catch fish, which it webs up for later consumption.

Snoile slides across ice on its belly to chase prey but is a more skilled hunter when an ally helps it reach water under ice. It is often found curled up in an ice fisher's shack, gnawing on its part of the catch or snoozing in its shed skin.

To hunt, Glainch gnaws through solid ice, sticks its open maw into freezing water, and waits for unaware fish Pokémon to swim too close or inspect its glowing mouth. It is a popular ice fishing companion and inspiration for fishing inventions.

Frosllery crawls through temperate kelp forests, luring in predators with its solitude and forlorn appearance. When the predator gets close, Frosllery encases it with ice from a concealed jet, before dragging the prey to its lair.

Frosbyss lures humans into cold water before coiling its powerful body around them and dragging them below the water to feed. Old stories claim that unwrapping the sash along its body will disperse its angry spirit and restore you safely to shore.

Orisel travel in pairs, with one dancing to distract a target while the other steals food, such as Pokémon eggs. Because of this deceptive behavior and their ability to fight adeptly, Orisel has inspired many scoundrels in fiction.

Oripoke loves dancing, but is usually two or three beats behind any audible music. If anyone mocks its off-beat dance moves, it becomes angry and sprays fiery embers until it becomes distracted by the music again.

Oriape is in an ascended state of euphoria and spends battles cheering on all combatants, even as it swings haymakers at opponents. Its erratic and confusing movements has inspired a martial arts form of constant motion in Alola.

For unknown reasons, Orilix congregate where recent tragedies have occurred and sing a mournful dirge. Their fluffy coat is edible and emotionally soothing, so the fluff can be eaten to help ease the grieving process after a loved one is lost.

Oripoke is often found sleepily staring into ponds in graveyards. Superstition says that Oripoke's dancing forewarns the viewer on how they will die, but it actually shows the viewer the a specific instance that will not lead to their death.

Oritly are seen floating around graveyards and were long considered an ill omen due to their eerie song. Their haunting melody and bobbing dance calms restless spirits, so they have become valuable companions in Lavender Town.

Trubladin wanders garbage dumps, playing with other scavenging Pokémon by crashing into each other which lead to giggling fits. If its outer coating tears, the trash body is so compacted from its play that it will not leak out.

Trubadier can barely contain its garbage blob body within its plastic skin, leading to an overflow of waste that it uses as a weapon. If it fires too many projectiles of trash, its body will sag and shrivel until it consumes more rubbish.

Garbdos collects trash in its muck-covered body and soars into thunderstorms to be struck by lightning. This fuses the trash together, which under the right circumstances forms Thunder Stones, and rains the fused trash down like hail.

Garbtic inhabits heavily polluted lakes, cleaning them by feeding on the refuse and garbage. As it consumes the pollution, its graceful body takes on additional aspects of the detritus, in turn causing people to be repulsed by the habitat savior.

Packs of Carsaur sun themselves on the shores of river deltas, waiting to swarm unaware prey like Slowpoke. The bubble on its back allows it to travel on land for a short amount of time if its habitat becomes inhospitable.

Carsaur is often found swimming at the surface of tropical rivers, the plant on its back exuding a sweet scent to attract bird and bug Pokémon for a meal. When it dives, the plant clamps its jaws shut as overconsumption of water makes it sluggish.

Carsaur can store water in the bowl-shaped flower on its back, which it uses to fire debilitating water blasts on land. In the water, it will swim below large prey and use the plant to create a whirlpool, entrapping the unprepared catch.

Carsaur swims with its flower on the surface of the water to catch unsuspecting prey like Politoed in the jaws of the plant. The plant and body have different stomachs, so they have to share food to grow in synchronicity.

Sharpeanie utilizes mimicry where its crown looks like a Sharpedo, warding off predators like Bruxish. To attract scavenging aquatic Pokémon for a meal, it flexes muscles in the fake mouth to extend a tongue and seem like a dead Sharpedo.

Sharpapex's mimicry of Sharpedo deters Psychic-type predators, like Bruxish, allowing it to devour a reef in peace. Its outer layer is poisonous, so creatures like Remoraid that try to nibble on it quickly die and become a meal for Sharpapex.

Sharpsopod's primary claws resemble Sharpedo, which it uses to distract, intimidate, and fake out opponents in combat. It if is bested in a fight, it will return to its den to meditate on a revenge plan.

Sharpduck is a cunning and swift predator, using its hydrodynamic shape to chase prey and escape with stolen meals. It raids large ships to taste unique foods, sometimes sharing its prize with Sharpedo to have an even quicker getaway.

Sharpder jets water from its shell to chase prey before ensnaring them with its tongue, which can be up to five times the length of its shell. The teeth on the shell shred the prey as Sharpder reels them in, allowing it to easily digest its food.

Allegedly, Phantper is a piece of wooden debris possessed by the spirit of a drowned child. Its personality is extremely chipper, as it frolics in the water and along the river bank, so many take that as folklore to keep children from swimming alone.

Phantgma is believed to be the tarlike ghost of an animal possessing a stump, both of which were killed in the same human-caused fire. It proactively scours the forest for debris that would worsen a wildfire and consumes it.

Phantbird wanders around wooded areas, searching for lost hikers and campers. When it finds them, it gifts an item from its wooden sack, then disappears merrily into the brush. The gifted items appear to be lost trinkets of other travelers.

Phantloom throws its voice to distract opponents before delivering a Sucker Punch from the opposite direction. Its bark is used in colognes to give a punch of a strong woody scent similar to the smell of pine.

While Phantbat sucks nutrients from a tree, the wooden armor wards off predators with its eerie, face-like appearance. The leaves of Phantbat are said to help people find lost items when ingested.

As the sun begins to set, Phantling flock together and communally watch passersby, all of their heads moving in unison. While this behavior is often considered unsettling, researchers have observed this is because they are looking for dropped seeds.

When someone loses a pet, sometimes they are visited by a Phantruff. While there is no evidence that it is the spirit of the pet, many adopt the Phantruff and pamper it. It is a friendly and playful Pokémon, but is mischievous and attention-seeking.

Phantfetchd commonly appears where Pokémon are starving due to wild plants having been overharvested. It hunts down the perpetrator, even if it is as large as Snorlax, and bludgeons them with its allium vegetable.

Trebat flies about the forest in search of a tree that is unprotected and bonds with it. It will work closely with an arborist or other Pokémon that it trusts to tend to the tree, leaving in search of a new tree to protect once satisfied.

Trebuffet has a preternatural sense when something is watching it and will not move anything but its eyes while watched unless it is attacked. When attacked, it lashes out in retaliation, giving it the nickname of "the lumberjack's bane".

Colonies of Trebat inhabit large trees and defend them against any threat by biting with their jaws or scaring with their shrill chittering. They sense shifts in the leaves of the grove their tree is in and investigate suspicious changes in trios.

Trebat relentlessly harasses threats to the tree it has made its home. Its howling cry sounds like an intense wind blowing through tree branches. When digesting a meal, it is unable to fly, so it curls up and pretends to be a bush.

Gloodle's drool helps break down its food more quickly, allowing it to continue eating more to build energy for its pupal stage. Its leaves give off a calming scent like a damp forest when dried, making them popular for potpourri.

Gloouna attracts pollinators with its drool, providing it with supplemental nutrients while it gestates in its protective shell. If a predator attempts to attack, it sprays noxious powder from its flower, but that slows how soon it can emerge.

Gloopod sleeps the majority of the time, drooling an enticing honey. When startled, it hastily retreats and instinctually spews a noxious odor, which immediately drives away any possible threat but also most other life nearby for multiple days.

Noirina builds endurance by engaging in shrieking matches with its kin until it can withstand a scream from a Noiqueen. It patrols the area around its family's den, alerting the others with battle screeches.

Noiqueen leaves the safety of its nest to begin building its own family. It challenges young Noiking to team up with it against a larger foe, bonding the pair together.

Noiran's ears are still developing resilience to loud noises, so a fully grown Noiking keeps it safely contained in its den. It makes tiny squeaks to help it strengthen its echolocation skills.

Noiking leaves the safety of its nest in search of a safe place to begin its own family. When it finds a Noiqueen of an equivalent age, it combines forces to become a bonded pair.

Noicham is often interrupted from its meditation since its hearing is strong enough to pick up both low and high frequency sounds. When it is disturbed, it blasts debilitating sonic waves outward, stunning and silencing others so it can refocus.

Noilix tunnels through even the hardest substances while using its sensitive ears to detect vibrations from prey, even flying ones. Upon sensing a target, it bursts from the ground, clamps its jaws on its food, and flies away to eat undisturbed.

The hollows in Noitar's body serve a dual purpose of helping it sense sounds within a mile of it and to amplify its own roars. It uses these roars to scare away unworthy opponents and attract foes that will challenge its combat capabilities.

Noiqueen spends the night hunting and gathering for its family as its wings are more developed than its male counterpart's wings. It attacks targets by firing venom from above, then dive-bombing the incapacitated creature.

Noiran joins the adult Noiqueen of its nest to learn about how to hunt and what berries are safe to harvest. It also assists by scouting around for larger prey and signalling the Noiqueen with whistles.

Noiking acts as a caretaker by using its muscular tail to corral its young and to clear any debris from its den. Rather than true flight, it glides by taking a running leap and controlling its descent with its ears and arm-wings.

Swabmar lives high on volcanic mountains where it heralds every morning with gleeful, squawking cries. The puffy arm and leg fluffs are similar to a heat-resistant frosting, so pastry chefs trim it as a spicy coating or filling to desserts.

Swabras lives near populated areas and will seek out humans if it needs help cleaning itself. Its mushrooms can be ground into a powder that soothes sore throats, making this Pokémon especially popular with singers and public speakers.

Gooscoon remains motionless in damp forests and under as much cover as possible while awaiting evolution. If discovered, it tries to roll away while the sticky slime trail slows pursuit.

Goocruel's viscous slime-coating allows it to squeeze into tiny spaces, as long as its venomous beak can fit through. It is timid, fleeing from new sights, so a persistent and calm Trainer can build trust with a wild one over weeks of visits.

Regiossom is made of a tough, unidentified substance, but its skirt ripples fluidly while it dances gracefully. The seven dots on its head blink in patterns as it dances, which musicians theorize represent musical notes.

Vilezing generates a rank haze which drives away pests that would feed on its flowers. Gardeners craft a compost mixture designed by a Celadon City florist that coaxes it to live on their grounds and adds a fertilizing aspect to the haze.

From above, Viledle mimics the appearance of a flower, protecting it from aerial threats. It normally keeps its venomous head spike retracted into the center of the flower, extending it only when needed for protection.

Vileuna burrows into the forest floor so only the flower remains exposed. It excretes a sweet honey-like nectar from the flower, which dwindles in quantity as it nears emerging from its shell.

Viledrill seeks rank-smelling flowers to collect nectar and return to its putrid-scented hive. When it encounters a threat too dangerous to jab with its arm petals, it opens its abdomen to unleash its entire payload of toxic spores on the foe.

A frequent sight around Celadon City, Viletata scavenges for plant clippings for sustenance. When it curls up to nap in a sunny spot, it is indistinguishable from a normal flower.

The wool growing on the back of a Stuffcott sheds as it brushes against surfaces while performing mischief. If Stuffcott gets stuck due to the wool, it flails in a frenzy to escape.

Belosion defends its nest even when sustaining debilitating injuries. When threatened, it flares a mane of fluffy material as a warning display, and it can launch the fluff at opponents to surprise them before it charges.

Becargo is composed of soft bedding, which along with its affectionate nature makes it a good pet if it has ample space for its bulk. It is used as a partner on rescue teams since it carries rescued people to safety in its soft, hollow shell.

Dhelnium wanders the ocean floor in herds of up to fifty, feeding on sponges and kelp. If it becomes separated from the rest of its herd, it becomes despondent and instead begins to feed on the life force of nearby Pokémon.

Marpom has tiny tubes on its limbs that help it adhere to and climb over surfaces. It frequently helps clean the hulls of ships by eating marine fouling organisms growing on them, but it is easily insulted if not rewarded.

Marcruel crawls across coral reefs with its tentacles, feasting on the coral. Even a group of five can decimate an entire reef in under a week, so conservationists work to keep them in check.

Toxedo is exceedingly brutal, ripping into foes with its teeth and launching venomous needles at attackers. The caudal fins allow Toxedo exceptional maneuverability, making it a popular Pokémon in aquatic competitions.

Even a lone Toxchamp can devastate a coral reef in days, tearing pieces from Corsola for food and trophies before letting them regenerate. Conservationists train Bruxish to drive them away from sensitive habitats.

Cactdily lives on hot, arid islands where it slowly stalks prey while it pretends to be a non-threatening plant. The prickly fruit that grows on the ends of its arms has a sweet flavor and a juicy texture, making it sought out to top off dishes.

Flocks of Sandygey hide buried at the seaside, waiting for beachgoers to arrive. Once people have set up for relaxation, the flock bursts up with Sand Attacks at the level of a sandstorm, steals as much food and snacks as possible, and flies away.

Fungal mycelium spreads under the armor of Pahorn, steadily sapping the strength of its bones. Its plated hide is durable enough to withstand tank rounds, protecting the weakened body.

As the mushroom grows in size and its mycelium spreads more, Patuff becomes less active. It sits near a pond in a forest or cave and emits a quiet humming sound to attract Pokémon near enough to hit with a Spore attack and consume.

Palogeot scours beaches for shiny and unique trinkets to decorate its body and impress other Palogeot. Trainers will search for specimens that have incorporated fossils, evolution stones, and other rare items.

Palotomp is found in mudflats, waiting to eat unobservant prey like Krabby or tidal flotsam such as seaweed. If its sandy body becomes too waterlogged from the tide, it may harden and break apart, resulting in Sandykips forming.

Aurollery lives in arctic oceans, where it burrows into ice and rock using its beak and tentacles. The crystals in its mantle allow it to manipulate ice, deflecting attacks and blocking off escape routes.

In cyberspace, Lycangon appears in games to seek tough foes and exploits their differing code. Outside cyberspace, its card-like appearance lulls foes into a false sense of security before it leaps out of the frame, attacks, and retreats to safety.

An inspiration for many warrior-poets, Melosopod sings a battle hymn as it overpowers opponents with graceful and coordinated attacks. Sailors hearing its music resonate from the ocean depths quickly route around the area due to old superstition.

Parapie voraciously consumes any food it comes across as the mushrooms consume much of the host's nutrients, keeping it in a very hungry state. An army of Parapie can decimate acres of farmlands in a week if left unchecked.

Parawak's body has swollen due to the fungal mycelium growing beneath its skin, bursting holes in its skin through which the mycelium leaks and shattering the fitted, protective skull. It seeks out cool, damp caves to strengthen the mushrooms.

Mycelium from the mushrooms has spread beneath most of the armor of Parahorn. It spends this stage of its life plodding in shaded woods to topple trees as nourishment for the mushrooms.

Paradon is very territorial due to the influence of the parasitic mushroom. It hunts Grass-type Pokémon for nourishment and Rock-type Pokémon to continue spreading the mushroom infection.

Parafree's wings are sensitive to sunlight and translucent except for the mycelium fibers that structure them as veins. During the night, it parasitizes flowers by leaving fungal spores on them when gathering nectar.

Unlike the majority of Scyther species, Parather usually remains immobile, disguised as a mushroom-covered log. When prey is close enough, Parather lunges too fast to be detected.

When Parasir is a symbiotic relationship between bug and mushroom, the mushroom suppresses pain in the bug during combat so it can focus. Later, the bug takes great care to clean the mushroom while the fungus secretes a soothing salve for the bug.

When Parasir is a host-parasite relationship, the mushroom drains the bug except to leave it strong enough to topple trees with its horns. Regardless of the damage to the host, Parasir will only stop fighting if the mushroom becomes unattached.

Paradle burrows around tree roots, using its keen sense of smell to hunt for other mushrooms growing on the tree. It eats the offending mushrooms and scatters its own spores on the tree roots before moving on to the next tree.

Paradrill latches onto large prey with its claws and then injects them with mushroom spores from its stinger. It then watches to see if the victim will be strong enough to become a new host for the mushroom or will be too weak and become food.

Parabuff's singing sounds as if multiple voices are contributing to the music, but it always is wandering alone. Campers are warned to keep at least one bright light nearby if they wander into territory where one has been spotted.

Paracross defends its feeding grounds with its claws, only using its mushroom-tipped horn as a last resort. When it slams the horn into a target, it erupts with sleep-inducing spores but also injures the mushroom, requiring Paracross to heal it.

Even one bite of the mushroom carried in the pouch of a Parasey will send a person or Pokémon into a euphoric state of happiness. The Parasey will protect the mushroom with its life, allowing the mushroom to escape to begin the life cycle again.

Mushroom mycelium and toadstools have overtaken the body of Paraperior to the point of near immobility. Other Pokémon feed on the mushrooms, allowing the spores to spread to new hosts.

The parasitic mushroom of Paraloom controls the animalistic half to hunt prey and leave spores on the carcass. Explorers in hot, humid forests should be wary of its territory, which is marked by mounds of the red and yellow mushroom.

The parasitic mushroom enhances Pararoth's energy and aggression, making it highly territorial, especially when interacting with other mushroom Pokémon. It rarely rests, only doing so if injured or ready to evolve.

Parapuff floats through forests leaving a trail of sleep-inducing spores. It is attracted to music, with many campers reporting their surprise upon finding one silently watching them from the edge of their campsite after playing music.

Paratuff inhabits damp caves where it remains immobile as a fluffy fungus slowly spreads from its core body. The red mushroom is a dangerous delicacy since any trying to retrieve it who comes in contact with the white fungus will be consumed.

During the day, Parabat clings to the ceiling of moist, humid caves. After the sun has set, it hunts for prey, latching onto them with its claws, and embedding its twin proboscis to feed and inject mushroom spores.

Pararock covers rocks with fungal mycelium to build a body and control its movements, even picking up new rocks to increase its size. Over time, small mushrooms grow across its body, allowing for precise locomotion in the new mushroom's vicinity.

Parasian is generally docile and lazy, preferring to nap in cool, damp shadows to keep the mushroom in control of the hybrid happy. It becomes enraged if anyone touches the mushroom, slashing them with claws coated with fungal spores.

Parabra's mushroom absorbs the brainwaves of other Pokémon, and so are boiled to create psychoactive medicines to enhance focus and X Sp. Atk. It meditates in damp caverns and forests to empower its mushroom to consume more ideas so it can learn.

Paradash gallops through old growth forests, trailing spores to propagate the mushroom in control of the Pokémon. Trainers will use it in the wake of forest fires so its spores grow mushrooms to break down detritus and revitalize the land.

Necrorak warps by wormhole around the region to places it senses large expenditures of light energy, so it is often seen in cities. It always remains attached to its wormhole with a web of light so it can retreat if threatened.

Necrochu chases thunderstorms, dashing from lightning strike to lightning strike to absorb the light from them. Once it has charged enough light, it races across the land, a shimmering rainbow of light behind it.

Hakaplup rarely forms groups with its kind due to its haughty nature, preferring to seek out rivals to train alongside. Its durable feathers are often lost due in its intense battles, leading to them being scavenged for crafting cooking utensils.

Komswine's armored scales protect it from sharp-clawed predators while it watches over its young. If it thinks a threat will be good training for the young, it will herd a weak predator to them by clanking its armor and tusks in a threatening manner.

Wimdrill is incredibly anxious, especially about possibly injuring people or Pokémon with its stingers. After it stabs something, it cries profusely and flies off to its hive to take a sadness nap.

Thanks to its tough and spiked shell, Wimseed fearlessly chases down and harasses anything that enters its field of view. Despite its bravado, the moment its quarry fights back, it gives a shrill cry and spins into the soil to escape.

Wimcorio adores dancing and practices this skill in hidden dens, whether in the underbrush of forests or in less traversed spots in buildings. If it sees anyone watching it dance, it screams and scampers off in embarrassment.

Wimoom's cowardice leads it to flee at the slightest disturbance. It sprays a powder with an enticing aroma to distract predators as it runs away, but the pleasantness of the smell has led to people scaring Wimoom to harvest the scent.

Wimfetchd loves its leek weapon but the moment it feels in danger, it shrieks, flings the leek at the perceived threat, and flies away. Once it calms down, it regrets throwing the leek, so it sneaks back to find it.

While Golillery is a formidable opponent due to its powerful tentacles, it prefers to hunker down in a hiding spot or jet away in a cloud of ink at the first sign of danger. These actions are rarely necessary as its armor means it has few predators.

Since ancient times, Golitrum has been an apex predator and combatant thanks to its thick armor plates and flame-resistant gel mane. It prefers to quietly spend time with its young but fiercely battles anything it deems a threat.

When Fodle curls up to nap, it looks exactly like a blossoming flower. This mimicry attracts Bug-type Pokémon, annoying Fodle into attacking.

Founa remains still in this state, allowing pollinators to sip nectar from its leaves. The pollen supplements its photosynthesis to accelerate its growth towards evolution.

Gardeners wishing to grow orchid-like Pokémon are drawn to Ludle since it has a hardy constitution and a mild personality. It eats decomposing plants, so cooking scraps will not hamper its health.

Ludrill's beautiful appearance belies an aggressive and vicious disposition. It snags prey in its claws before stinging them with a paralytic toxin, allowing it to leisurely feed on its catch.

Ludra inhabits vivid, tropical reefs where it hunts by blasting sun-infused laser beams from its snout. It is an expensive pet to care for since it requires diligent attention to the water chemistry and lighting, lest it lose its color and temper.

Chesaur is inquisitive and upbeat, often scampering around its woodland home in search of adventure. The nut on its back contains a potent poison which it can release with the spines on the shell of the nut.

Cheskit skims the surface of ponds in search of overripe berries that have fallen in the water. If it eats too much, the hard shell on its head will grow too dense and disrupt its ability to skate on water.

Venono reflects a pattern of light bursts off of its pendulum, which induces different types of dreams. Its fur is incredibly soft and smells slightly of lavender, leading to the belief that pillows using its fur will lead to sweet dreams.

Quilsaur rubs the bulb on its back against stones and trees to strengthen the shell, shaving off weakening sections. The red spikes on its nose, ears, and bulb secrete the poison gestating within the bulb.

Quilxen battles by smacking opponents with its mace, which it will ignite if it believes the battle will be challenging. It takes special care in growing the spiked nut that it uses for the mace, protecting trees that produce them.

Chesaur charges into trees, knocking them down to create walls around its nest. While the nut on its back contains a poison too dangerous for human consumption, the shell is delicious and nontoxic.

Chesaur's elevated shell protects the tree nuts underneath from bird Pokémon, especially since the shell now produces a poison that can be transmitted by its spikes. It lies in sunlight to strengthen the defensive prowess of its shell.

Chesaur can manipulate the elevation of its protective shell with specialized muscles of the treetrunk-like growth on its back. This protects or exposes the branches that grow tree nuts, which are widely used as snacks and as salad toppings.

Delphan spends days using its tusks to meditatively carve a log, with the carvings glowing like embers. While it can use the log like a magic staff to augment its spell-like attacks, it tends to just wallop opponents with the log.

Froakyu constructs a Froakie disguise to capitalize on the Pokémon's popularity beyond even frog enthusiasts. Its aptitude for jumping is limited due to its small legs, but it can use its claw to propel itself into the air to mimic its disguise.

Froaphish continually dribbles a cloud of bubbles which can be blasted to entrap foes, allowing for either a quick escape or follow-up pinches. Its hardiness has helped it to survive and spread to multiple regions.

Frogsect creates a mushroom-shaped bubble on its back to create visual distortions to distract predators. If the bubble pops, it scuttles into hiding until it can safely rebuild it.

The steam emanating from Tormagius is rumored to give visions of one's future, so people get steam baths made by it to receive prophecies. It reads their minds, then feeds off of their happy emotions when it puts positive outcomes into their heads.

Pumpret scurries around forests and farmland, scavenging for food to take back to its burrow. During harvest season, it can be persuaded to help out with an offering of Colbur Berries.

Pumpowl is often mistaken for another car by nighttime drivers due to the glowing holes in its belly, which are actually used to blind prey and frighten predators. Autumn nights are fortuitous times for people hoping to spot this skittish Pokémon.

Legends claim that consuming the goo brewed in Pumptu's pumpkin cauldron bestows visions of the future. A splash of the liquid is sometimes added to dessert frostings or beverages to induce a woozy feeling.

Pumpran is territorial of a patch of its meadow, launching venomous needles at intruders. A Galarian baker discovered that baking it in a pie with Kebia Berries made it edible and produced a pie with a slightly sour flavor with a smooth texture.

Pumprina spits sharp seeds which inject foes with an endurance-sapping poison. It prowls farm fields near harvest season, looking for prey scavenging the last of the crops.

Pumpruff is made of phosphorescent plants and stones, which can glow for up to four hours after sun exposure. This loyal Pokémon is a preferred partner for cave explorers and miners as a non-igniting light source should they encounter gasses.

Venotress has a third pair of wings that it uses to protect its lower half by mimicking its top armor. It fires sharp, toxic shards of its shell from its spouts to incapacitate foes.

Venopent suspends itself from tree branches and building overhangs while gently pulsing light to attract insects into its translucent body. Fortune tellers claim to observe the digestion of these bugs to divine the future.

The glowing lantern face on Gourdos's abdomen attracts prey to its web, where they become stuck and it fully webs them up with the aid of its many hands. The webbing has a sugary pumpkin flavor, but is very sticky until washed.

Swirchu runs around with an outburst of hyper energy, the sticky strings that compose its body clinging to all surfaces it touches. Without warning, it crashes to the ground, asleep.

Swirdour has a lot of energy and sheds profusely, so it requires a patient owner who is willing to spend time training it. Its fur has a slightly spicy and sweet flavor, so it is often used as a treat on its own or as a topping for ice cream.

Swirshrew digs in loose dirt to hide from Bug-type Pokémon that are attracted by its sugary hide. It sheds its armored plates throughout life, which are collected and cracked open to expose the intensely sweet core as a crunchy dessert.

Swirslash is found in deserts where it can avoid water, which is dangerous to its sugary, protective coat. It can be found meticulously brushing grit and sugar clumps from its coat, which scavengers snap up once it moves on.

Slurslash licks the edges of its claws to hone them to sharp points useful for combat, digging, and foraging. It periodically sheds its crystallized sugar spines, which are collected by humans for desserts.

Slurpardos's skull is hard enough to break the jaw of predators like Tyrantrum, a frequent opponent in the wild. During warm seasons, it sheds sugary puddles of its skin, allowing it to charge faster but with less power.

Slurmence makes its home in cool caverns and tundras where it is less prone to melting. Brave pastry chefs seek to acquire shed sugary scales to elevate their bakes, but must watch out for a blast of its caramel-like breath.

Slurxio has a friendly personality and is hyperactive, which has led to many families adopting one before they are ready to care for it. As the seasons change, Slurxio sheds sticky fur, which clump together into bite-sized sweets.

Slurxew rubs traces of its sticky scales around its territory since its strong sense of smell will lead it back to its den. Its tusks are brittle and if they break, the process to regrow them requires a diet high in sugar.

Scrachum learns about its environment by biting new things it encounters, following up with a solid headbutt to test the entity's toughness. It is self-conscious and will attack anyone that mocks the appearance of it or its companions.

Scrafnx gleefully joins any fight, where it sings a battle hymn and swishes its skirt of shed skin to distract foes and protect allies. It rejects most authority, making it difficult to train, but becomes a merciless defender of those it trusts.

Scrafpunny fights with attitude, leading with slaps from its large ears and following with heavy kicks. Its use of colorful skin sheddings as armbands, legguards, and a facemask has inspired a vibrant fashion style in the Unovan punk scene.

Scrafdile's fused eyelids serve as an intimidation tactic and eye protection from sand grains and sunlight. When raiding a Pokémon's den, it pulls the shedding over its snout, hiding its features and signaling confidence it will not need its jaws.

In an attempt to demonstrate its toughness, Scrafrok simply leaves its shed skin where it falls. Despite its indifferent attitude, if it sees anything bothering a Sandile, it will attack the offending presence.

Lomkhan cares for the adolescent Pokémon in its community, creating games in the shallows and splashing them with water from its crown. During wildfires, it shepherds young and injured Pokémon to the water, where it tends to those it can help.

Lomrona bursts from marsh water in a dazzling shower of lily pads as it unfurls its watery wings. In wetlands, seeing a wild Lomrona flying with the sunrise reflecting off of its wings has become a sign of a happy day ahead.

Charxew is spunky, challenging opponents who far exceed its combat prowess and gloating whenever it wins a fight. It trains with its flaming tusks by slashing at rocks, cutting off shards that are collected by hikers as good luck charms.

The interior of Charxure's body is as hot as a blacksmith's forge, with its tusks being hot enough to instantly cauterize wounds it inflicts. It gets frustrated easily when it makes a mistake, so it requires a patient Trainer to raise it.

Dianrith is found in deep ocean caves, attracting prey with its glittering diamond-like growths. It is highly mobile, burrowing into the silt to avoid other predators and swimming gracefully with its side and tail fins.

Luvleef inhabit lagoons and love swimming up to boats to play with people by splashing them with their vines. The kelp leaves growing on their necks have a sweet and salty flavor and stimulate oxytocin release when eaten.

Luvans spends the day swimming through coral reefs in search of prey to subdue with its bliss-inducing venom. Shed scales wash ashore and are collected to be used as tokens to give to a crush.

Luvbok's venom causes calming hallucinations, allowing it to easily constrict prey after striking. Alternatively, it may constrict those it cares for, but its overzealous nature often causes them to pass out in its coils.

Luvgigas was once worshipped as a primordial embodiment of love. In modern days, it wanders the ocean floor, offering companionship to Pokémon who have become lost or abandoned, forming a family for the forsaken.

Poochin is a common starter pet in the Hoenn region as it is incredibly lazy and easy-going. It becomes very excited when encountering strong scents and tries to eat items it comes across.

Psyvanha distracts from the pain of its headaches by causing havoc for those living near its habitat. A lone Psyvanha will form a relationship with a school of Carvanha, gaining protection in exchange for the entertainment of its slapstick antics.

Psyoom's headache triggers a defense mechanism that causes it to expel a horribly smelling aroma, which in turn excited a headache in it. Its plant has made the meat toxic to ingest, but an aging process using Paldean salt seems to neutralize it.

Psycool jets around the ocean in constant fear of being eaten, but its toxicity is too strong for most predators. Its venom can be used to treat severe migraines and aid in lessening anxiety, but must be carefully extracted and nullified first.

Psyuk tries to block out its overpowering headaches by eating. Unfortunately, because it loves to eat garbage, the headaches are caused by its own stench.

Zanchar has an abundance of energy, with its fiery tail slowly burning down to nothing as it expends its stamina. It is a prankster and especially targets Seviper as the victim of its practical jokes.

Polibok is free spirited and is observed swinging from branches to dive into lakes. It often trains as a companion to lifeguards as its muscular body can hold a rescuee while swimming to safety.

The body of Poliuk processes toxins to clean the water of its habitat. This conversion creates the oily swirls in its body that Poliuk uses to distract and confuse predators of its young.

Polidos spins silk stronger than steel beams, which it uses for its web and workout bars. When prey becomes stuck in its web, it spins in a circle to calm them with its spiraling markings, before pummeling them into submission with its fists.

Polians coils around foes, then simultaneously tries to entrance them with the spiral inside its mouth and bludgeons them with the fist on its tail. The punches delivered by its tail are powerful enough to crack concrete.

Polibok is inescapable in even the most hazardous terrain since its serpentine body and powerful limbs give it unrestricted mobility. It must immerse itself in water every few hours or else its skin painfully dries out, limiting its abilities.

Due to its immense mental power and anger tiring this young Pokémon out, Abdos sleeps most of the day. Rangers seek out wild Abdos to keep them sleeping and comfortable, lest they get nightmares and lash out in their sleep.

Kadagast obsessively sculpts its body by psychically manipulating its spoon. Even if offered a better tool, it prefers the spoon as if proving its tenacity and skill to itself.

Squirtrogue cooperates well with others as it seeks to learn from and emulate those it admires. It is often found on ships helping with sailing tasks, learning skills that will influence its evolution.

Weepinking sleeps all day, with an aromatic drool dripping from its mouth and enticing insects inside, which it instinctively eats. When disturbed, it unleashes all of its stored power for one devastating attack before falling back asleep.

Weepinpod scampers across the ground of forest and wilderness parks, gobbling up bugs and food waste. Since it mimics the appearance of a Pinap Berry, it is often ignored by predators if it stays still.

Weepinggy tries to drag its shedding with it as much as possible since the detritus gives off a sweet scent that attracts prey. It is very excitable when it recognizes a Pokémon it loves, so it often drops the shedding and must start over.

Weepinty competes with members of its colony to see who has the largest, best smelling shedding. It will abandon its shedding to chase and subdue substantially-sized prey, like Pikachu, that can sustain it until it has shed a new layer.

Weepinpoke stares blankly ahead while drooling a fragrant ooze that attracts insects inside its mouth and entraps them. The drool is a main ingredient in a flowery perfume popular especially among Saffron City socialites.

Tentasea swims through tropical reefs, sticking its tentacles into holes to find Krabby or other small crustaceans to eat. It is a weak swimmer in open water, so after large storms it is common to find many Tentasea washed ashore.

Tentados has a standoffish personality, flashing the large gel orbs on its head to mimic eyes as a warding tactic. It can be placated with treats made of Wacan Berries, so surfers in its range tend to carry some in a pouch.

Tentatine swims along the surface and uses its tail tentacles to make sharp turns when evading predators. At night, schools of Tentatine leap from the ocean while flashing their red orbs, which is believed to be a good luck sign by sailors.

Tentaeanie crawls through tidal pools and reefs, where its red disc reflects light to warn away larger creatures from stepping on it. The disc is shed throughout life, so people collect them as decorations.

Tentacruel's tentacles are still growing, so it is common to see one with a mismatched variety of tentacle sizes. The beak is too large for its body, but looks fierce enough to ward off predators.

Despite its body being mostly made of water, the primary diet of Tentauk is pollution and trash. Seaside resorts encourage wild Tentauk to live nearby since the cleaner its habitat, the brighter the gems on its head shine.

In the wild, Tentadra lay huge clutches of eggs, with the male vigilantly protecting the nest while the female hunts for the pair until the young hatch. Its fins and tentacles produce deadly toxins, but these are diluted to create anesthetics.

Sloweon's ability to change its color to match its environment is poorly executed, changing colors long after it has left the associated location. Many predators leave it alone, fearing the poor camouflage is due to it being highly toxic to eat.

Warlee blows bubbles and then kicks them at foes to create hazardous projectiles around the battlefield. When not fighting or training, it takes meticulous care of its flowing mane of hair, which is a mark of prestige among the species.

Warchan trains by launching a beam of robust bubbles to bounce off of surrounding surfaces, then dodging, blocking, or punching the bubbles. Its tough shell has covered it in fights, allowing it to safely punch opponents made of hazardous materials.

Wartop variably retracts its head and limbs into its shell as it continues to spin, making it difficult for opponents to judge where the next attack will come from. Trainers should buff and shine its shell as a form of bonding.

Slowfarig is a symbiotic relationship where the mammal provides sustenance while the shellfish provides protection. Slowfarig numbs the excruciating pain of the shellfish's teeth with its psychic powers.

Magnebish is a common sight in metropolitan centers, where it scrounges in trash for electronics to consume. It is also a well-liked inhabitant of construction sites and work zones since it will scour the ground for metal debris.

Seecruel's large eyes allow it to hunt even in the darkest arctic waters. It uses its horn to carve a hole in an iceberg so it can sleep, blocking the entrance with its camouflaged bell.

The fiery collar is hot enough to remain lit when Dewlosion swims and frolics in arctic oceans. Once it burns a hole through frozen sea water, it curls up for a nap in hopes that someone will share their fishing catches with it.

A new Mubat struggles maintaining a consistent form, so it creates mindless flying drones to deliver anything nearby into its waiting maws. The drones use their ears to return to the gurgling mouths, where they reabsorb into the main body.

Despite smelling horrible, the leaves growing from Muish are exceptionally useful in medicines. Some people even keep them in composting bins, feeding Muish scraps while trimming its leaves.
