Kept aboard ship medical bays, Seasey's eggs have been known to heal everything from seasickness to scurvy. If a Sailor falls overboard, it is the first in the water, able to swim against even the strongest of undertows.

Despite its heavy, durable body, Seazor is an adept swimmer. If an obstacle gets in its way, regardless if it's a human, boulder, or Pokémon, this species' titanium-tough horns break right through.

On overcast nights, Starsel uses its gems to light the way for lost travelers. Many consider it to be an attendant of Arceus due to its impeccable timing.

Late at night, Starther races above the ocean waves, patrolling for something unknown. It often fights off territorial Tentacruel that mistake the light off its wings and blades as rivaling Pokémon.

At first sight many Trainers believe Startops is from outer space. Unbeknownst to most, it survives in the deepest portions of the ocean, its armor protecting it from the crushing depths and its diamond-hard scythes lighting the darkness.

Each Starsel's hat depicts a different constellation. When the stars are not visible, they are known to stand upon the clouds, guiding lost trainers to a safe haven for the night.

Often found protecting coral reefs, Staroc are only visible due to their glowing gems. On clear nights, they swim to the surface, challenging any who cross their path.

Scyninja has been observed using Ariados silk as a scarf to protect against poisonous assaults. Its special hooked scythes allow this Pokémon to ambush targets around obstacles.

Hyper intelligent, Jynphox walk wintery streets, blending into the crowd with their stave hidden in a pocket dimension. When threatened, the stave reappears instantaneously and it uses Blizzard to cover its escape.

When pods of Lapras form, a Lapnite joins their group. Lapnite acts as a scout using its acute vision. It reacts to threats in milliseconds, spraying Ice Beams to freeze them in place.

When it's not in flight, Lapdrill floats on the water's surface. Due to its short temper, any who swim within four feet suffer multiple painful stings.

The oar Lapxen carries has been passed down through generations. They often sing beautiful yet tragic dirges while pouring fiery energy into the focus, before unleashing scalding water on foes.

Sailors often consider a sighting of Vapordoom to be an omen of doom. They hunt by boiling ocean water around their prey, and the oil given off their fur is highly combustible. This has caused an increase in shipboard fires in waters they frequent.

Scientists originally believed Kabuther's fossil was a mix of two separate fossils. To their shock, the Pokémon revived with bony wings that could support its weight, as well as slice through steel.

Using its genetically enhanced psychic powers, Kabutwo crushes boulders around its body for armor. Despite its extra weight, this Pokémon can close distances faster than a plane to crush opposition with its claws.

Kabuvoir in ancient times protected villages with their rock-hard armor and skull-splitting scythes. Resurrected by science, they now defend walking paths against predatory Pokémon.

Nesting above active volcanoes, Kabugon dives with its young into the lava. When they emerge, their rocky scales are toughened to diamond hardness.

Unlike its Beedrill cousins, Dragodrill is docile, migrating where the winds take it. After setting up a new hive, it lands on trees, using its wings as camouflage against Flying-Type Pokémon.

Elegance incarnate, Dragovoir commands any room it enters. With its ability to read minds, it bonds easily with its Trainer. In contests it is known to take flight using the wings on its head to show off its strength.

Pokémon Breeders agree Dragoray's fur is the most difficult to tame due to the high voltage stored in its body. Many are bred for aerial contests, which their compact shoulder-mounted wings help them squeeze through.

Beevoir actively seeks out Beedrill hives, and takes control using pheromones. Once established as the leader, this Pokémon will brutally chase off all perceived threats.

Each Beerantis stakes out a claim to a section of jungle. In its territory, it lies dormant, waiting patiently for other Bug-types to enter, then strikes faster than the eye can see. Attacked Pokémon are left paralyzed by venom, ready to be consumed.

Umbqueen melt into the shadows, perfectly hidden by their dark scales. They have taken to stalking specific creatures, completely destroying threats to them with powerful slams, then hiding before being noticed.

Regardless of how long Umbra sleeps, its eyes open when the moon rises. Some say its fur is darker than night, and it can only be seen when its circle patterns glow eerily before an attack.

Used on ships for night watch, Murpuff has perfect night vision. If the ship is on a collision course, it alerts the crew with a sea shanty loud enough to be heard on deck.

Scither keeps its blades sharp by hunting Onix. Some say they can cut berries from trees as fast as lightning, in spite of the iron-hard chitin now covering its body.

When exploring tropical lands, such as Hoenn, Trainers bring a Scisel to clear the underbrush. In their native cold lands, villages use them to gather tinder for winter fires.

Registering only as a red blur of motion to onlookers, Scitile runs treetop to treetop at over eighty miles per hour. If it spots a threat below, it drops steel-tipped tail first, hitting with the force of a freight train.

Scipunny's chitin is weaker compared to other Bug types, but its ears each have their own mind. While the main body scavenges for food, each ear stands watch, reacting faster than a blink of an eye to threats.

Attracted to city lights, Scilass wreaks havoc in the streets. It often vanishes, using disembodied claws to prank innocent bystanders. It ends up claiming a city block as its pranking ground, testing its claw strength against cars.

Often called The Nightmare, Sneagon is infamous for choosing villages to terrorize. It only attacks at night and will scare off guard Pokémon. Trainers report their hordes are filled with loose change.

Generally considered a nuisance, Misninja lives in the walls of older houses. It sabotages electronic devices and taunts the owners face-to-face before phasing through the floor.

Normally, Weavdrill makes its nests in cold mountainous regions. Trainers beware: when one is present, two to four more are nearby waiting to swarm.

In the darkness of the night, the only sign Weavgon are around is the bass thrum of their wings. They are known to play with their prey, buzzing above their heads unseen, before blotting out the moon on their final dive.

Groups of Weavninja claim mountainous lakeside shores as their territory. They soften their footsteps to a whisper by collecting water into their paws, allowing them to sneak up on any would-be intruders.

Afraid of the Rattata infestation in big cities, many officials released Weavth as a predator. Unfortunately, these Pokémon are drawn to anything shiny, thus have infested back alleyways in gangs that steal from Trainers.

Yanzor's punches slice through the air, creating sonic boom shockwaves. This has made it increasingly popular among police forces for its ability to stop suspects in their tracks.

When Porycario passes by electronics, it unknowingly absorbs the electricity which is added to its aura. If it builds this charge too long, it releases a localized electromagnetic pulse which phases the Pokémon into cyberspace.

Said to be formed from aggrieved Lopunny spirits trapped in clay from their burrows, Spiribas stands menacing vigil over the plains. It constantly mutters curses that only activate when threats are nearby.

Often Gabther stakes a claim on caves, kicking out most other Pokémon. When it viciously attacks, this Pokémon whirls about, its wings just as sharp as the scythes attached to its arms.

Jumping from high cliffs, Garther glides over its territory. If a threat is spotted, it dives into an Aerial Ace so quickly that its target often doesn't realize what hit it.

Gargia is often referred to as Bringer of Storms, and its passing wake is filled with fog, thunderstorms, and even tornadoes. Its rough, aerodynamic scales allow it to pass through harsh weather and reach the storm's eye.

Garpunny's antennae are sensitive enough to detect changes in people's moods and durable enough to be used as extra scything claws. They are difficult to befriend due to their cautious nature.

Inhabitants of forest clearings, Venupunny stands in the middle of a giant flower, releasing pheromones to attract Bug types. When one steps onto the petals, the flower snaps shut, providing the Pokémon with a meal.

Some say Mawvile's mood depends on the side of its face you see. Its bright and cheerful side attempts to coordinate with trainers, while the devious side snaps its steely crown's jaws.

Nidotwo flies with its psychic powers in the daylight, its coloration providing camouflage against sightings. It seeks out toxic spills, absorbing the poison into itself and bringing nature back into equilibrium.

Despite its fragile appearance, Nidozor's chitin is tough as diamonds. When threatened, it uses spurs built into its claws to deploy venom, incapacitating its foes.

Roving bands of Nidosel inhabit mountain passes, using their claws to scale rock faces. When humans pass underneath, the Pokémon drop down and use paralyzing poison on their axes to steal what they can.

Every winter, Nidovile descends from their mountain homes to fish for Poliwag on frozen lakes. Using razor-sharp claws, they drag their favorite treats from the depths, then impale them on venom-laced horns.

The auras around Nidocario's horns and claws are aerosolized poison. Though its movements seem ponderous, one breath is enough to drop a Snorlax.

Living in eroded caves made by raging rivers, Nidoduck are strong enough to swim up rapids. If threatened, they dig their venom-laced claws into the foe and peck viciously.
