112 pokedex entries by lordjoostmeister
Voltking's intelligence tempers its sensitive nature, allowing it to ignore most provocations. It remembers every slight and injustice, carefully calculating the perfect moment for its explosive revenge.
Easily thrilled, Volteal rolls in circles and claps its fins together to express excitement. Since the shock of the claps can cause it to explode, Trainers must raise Volteal in a calm and gentle manner.
They reshape the landscape in singleminded rampages toward nearby power plants. If not stopped before consuming a plant's electricity, Electaitar become roving cataclysms, discharging colossal lightning bolts into anyone too slow to flee the area.
Skating across ponds, Ditskit deftly reconstitutes its DNA to make its scent resemble the nearest predator's least favorite food.
When it encounters strong Pokémon, Ditrain reconstitutes the cells in its antennae to copy the appearance of the other Pokémon's eyes. It seeks out rare and powerful Pokémon to maximize this borrowed intimidation.
It feasts on any food it finds, somehow consuming many times its body weight in a single sitting. If interrupted, Snorful lashes out with enough power to topple trees.
Its voracious appetite is matched only by its awe-inspiring strength. Snorwear can be tracked by the trail of destruction it leaves as it eats everything in its path.
The sap flowing through Chikodum's body contains magnetized iron particles, allowing it to hover by repelling the world's magnetic field. When attacked, it floats as high as possible, releasing a sweet scent in hopes of pacifying the foe below.
Genetic testing of Chikoaura's leaves has revealed matches with fossilized plants. Scientists theorize that the gentle scent released by the leaves is older than human history.
When Baytang is in danger, the spicy scent of its leaves intensifies. Baytang uses the scent's stimulating effects to clear and focus its mind, raising its psychic powers to formidable heights.
The spicy aroma of the leaves around Baytle's neck boosts energy. To avoid being constantly sniffed, Baytle withdraws into its shell before lashing out with vines and jets of water.
Megainja's hollow exoskeleton and tattered, motionless petals give no evidence of life as it hovers through the air. Even so, as Megainja passes over dead flowers, they spring back into bloom. Because of this, many associate Megainja with rebirth.
When it is comfortable with those around it, Megagross emits gentle aromas from its flower bulb, using its psychic power to analyze responses. It continually adapts the scents based on this feedback, searching for fragrances that evoke happy memories.
Megagross occasionally molts, shedding its bulb of petals and growing a fresh one. Though prized for their size and scent, the petals are difficult to acquire, as Megagross greedily devours the old bulb shortly after molting.
Those who have met a Megajask often report a joyful blur of color, bright petals flapping too fast to track as they release a soothing scent that washes worries away. It appears most often to those dealing with grief, helping to ease their burdens.
Though Megacada is well-suited to digging tunnels and absorbing nutrients from tree roots, it is too proud of its bright petals to dirty them with soil. Instead, it clings to tree branches, hoping to disguise itself as a flowering bud.
Any dead plants touched by its freezing breath return to life, though often with dramatic changes. Matches with ancient fossils have led to theories that the plants are revived in the form of their prehistoric ancestors.
Megapius uses its long petals to soar through the sky. As the petals move, a delectable aroma wafts through the air, making those below crave fruit.
The intensity of Cyndator's flames is directly tied to the level of harmony between its heads. When all three get along and agree on a course of action, the fire becomes a white-hot inferno.
Cyndamory does not produce enough flame to fly. Instead, it uses its fiery wings for defense.
Quimory's powerful legs and flaming wings make it uncommonly nimble. It attempts short flights while further honing its flames.
Typhmory may still have physical wings, but the heat of their flames makes it impossible to check. They propel themselves with great jets of fire.
Ledylee avoids conflict by skittering away on its extensible legs. If cornered, it squeezes its eyes shut and flails with all six limbs, hoping to intimidate predators with the apparent display of martial prowess.
It is very affectionate. If anyone compliments Ledysaur's unique pattern of spots, it bounds over and nuzzles them happily. However, its immense weight often knocks the unfortunate admirer to the ground.
This heroic Pokémon appears on starlit nights, pummels evildoers with a rapid barrage of kicks and punches, then dramatically vanishes. Ledlee's exploits have been serialized in a popular comic book.
To travel short distances, it releases long strands of electrified silk. The world's electric fields give it the extra boost it needs to float on the breeze. If it bumps into a Pokémon, the silk's charge stuns them while Igglytula makes its escape.
Igglytik's tiny body is light enough to float in the wind. Once it bumps into a larger Pokémon, Igglytik clings to it and absorbs static electricity.
At first glance, the hole in Togeinja's back reveals only an empty shell. However, those close to it know the shell is filled with concentrated joy. Togeinja shares its stock of joy freely, giving extra-pure portions to those suffering from loss.
When it meets a kindhearted person, Togephan rolls around them in ecstatic circles. Sometimes it builds up too much speed and crashes into buildings, then sheepishly offers a blessing of good luck.
It gazes into the future all day, calmly ignoring all provocations. While Xaking's intellect is prodigious enough to chart courses toward favorable timelines, it prefers to search for the highest jumps nearby Magikarp will ever make.
A fighting Bellzor is beautiful to behold. Adjusting its position with rhythmic wingbeats, Bellzor choreographs each graceful attack to land in time with its dance.
It brings blessings of guidance wherever it floats. Those who follow the wake of a Quagkiss are led to the choicest swamps in the area.
It bumbles through the sky without a care until it notices a swamp. Letting its steamy wings dissolve, Quagizard plummets downward and lands with a joyous squelch.
The flexible coral of Coreanie's tentacles regenerates even faster than its rigid branches do. When a coral branch grows long enough, Coreanie snaps it off and devours it with apparent delight.
Skarpius flaps its four wings furiously to launch itself into the air, then drops onto unsuspecting prey. The crushing weight of its bulky body and steel armor usually render a second strike unnecessary.
Light reflects off Ho-rain's feathered antennae in a dazzling array of seven colors. It uses its four wings to position itself at the perfect angle to enhance this effect, awing those it appears to.
It emits croaking, buzzing calls that vary widely in tone and frequency. Carrying far across the water bodies Magnetoed lives by, the calls contain a wealth of information that other Magnetoed decode, allowing them to coordinate against threats.
Given enough time, its saliva can dissolve almost any material. Trainers with a Lickigon2 must keep an eye out for it furtively licking their electronic devices, hoping to get at the tasty data inside.
Though its wings are too weak to truly fly, Torchrain uses them to hop nimbly from branch to branch. When in danger, the markings on its antennae heat up and emit a searing glow.
When it detects predators, Kecrain freezes, coloring its body to match its surroundings. If the threats draw close, Kecrain cycles its antennae's eyespots through a variety of lurid colors in an attempt to startle them off.
It ruthlessly nips ankles, car tires, and pets. With its tough shell protecting it from most retaliation, a single Gibwig can terrorize an entire village. Ice-type Pokémon are often the only thing that can convince it to move on.
Sailors sighting Torogre report a gigantic creature, supporting rocky peaks and a colossal tree on its titanic back. Due to its rarity and the distance of these sightings, however, its true size has not been definitively confirmed.
Empoking exudes an oppressive aura of majesty and dominion, influencing nearby Pokémon to protect and serve it. Luckily, the only things Empoking ever demands are solitude during its naps and the occasional meal of fish.
During the festive season, Doubird descend from their nests in the mountains to celebrate. They toss one of their blades to startled travelers and attack with the other, giving the "gift" of swordplay lessons.
One of Dialdreigon's secondary heads looks into its victims' pasts to analyze their weaknesses, while the other looks into the future to predict their movements. Thanks to this knowledge, Dialdreigon's merciless hunts are always successful.
Though Regitung appears to lack a mouth, the golden appendage extending from its head is always wet with saliva. It wraps the "tongue" around objects and pulls with enough strength to tow even the largest boulders.
Regifree's tastes in nectar grow more and more exacting over the course of its long life. If its favorite flowers die out in one location, Regifree will travel across continents and oceans in search of other patches.
As Regisaur sleeps, its golden petals open slightly, emitting a pale glow. Attempts to look into the petals and see what lies at their center are met with a Solar Beam.
Carvings found in ancient ruins appear to depict Regiswine using its mighty tusks to hold back walls of ice. Archaeologists believe it may be responsible for areas that remained untouched by glaciers during the last ice age.
Rolade pranks seniors by leaping out of their computer screens, plasma blade drawn. However, its code of honor forces it to compensate its victims afterward by helping them with their devices.
It spins its gears to generate electricity, which arcs from its coils to nearby objects. If Roklang is convinced to use specific frequencies and timings, the arcs form a buzzing melody.
Its psychic powers hold prey in place as it rips into them with its fangs. Reuniedo's toxic gel seeps into the wounds it inflicts, ensuring that even if prey momentarily escape, they will be too weak to survive a second attack.
Reuniskit skitters along the surface of water bodies, supporting itself with its psychic abilities. Though its gel smells delectably sweet, aggressors quickly discover the gel's toxic properties.
The eye-like objects suspended in Reunirain's gel act as focal points for its psychic prowess. When fixed by a glare from Reunirain, opponents are assailed by waves of fear and doubt.
Reunicash's psychic power prevents its gel from dissolving into the murky waters in which it lives. If provoked, Reunicash channels this power into concussive blasts strong enough to trigger earthquakes.
Though Reunipius can soar through the sky with the power of its telekinesis alone, it is often spotted flapping its arm-like appendages anyway. Trainers report that Reunipius's gel is faintly banana-scented.
It deters predators with dazzling waves of flame. Since Volcagon2 is not a Fire-type Pokémon, theories have emerged that its flames are enhanced with holograms for greater intimidation value.
Aspiring warriors search for a slumbering Jilade in pursuit of a wish. Jilade only awakens when it senses a worthy opponent, and only grants the wishes of those who best it in combat.
Jigglytula catches other Pokémon's attention with its beautiful eyes, then uses its melodic voice to lull them to sleep. Next, Jigglytula weaves a cocoon of electrically charged web around its prey and devours them.
Jigglytik's tiny body makes it difficult to locate before its entrancing voice sends listeners to sleep. It then snuggles up to them and absorbs static electricity for its own use.
The threat display presented by Traprain's jaw-shaped antennae wards off all but the most fearless predators. When Traprain hunts, it tucks the antennae away to avoid revealing its ambush.
Wigglytula's fine, fluffy fur is wonderfully soft. However, since Wigglytula can spin strands of the fur into an electrically charged web within moments, few ever get to touch it.
Wigglytik clings to humans and other Pokémon to absorb static electricity. Since its fur is luxuriously soft, many dream of being chosen by a Wigglytik.
Even slight inconveniences cause Wigglykey to literally swell with rage, inhaling and expanding its fluffy body. When it finally loses its temper, Wigglykey releases all of the breath it was holding in a single deafening shriek.
Bored of food flavored by the gel of its body, Solokip sometimes opens a "mouth" in the gel around its head so that it can nibble on its meal directly. Exposure to air dries out its eyes, so Solokip only does this for especially tasty treats.
Yaba drifts through the air, searching for faces that trigger its deeply-buried memories. If someone's appearance reminds it of a bad experience, it will rush up to them and batter them with its golden orbs.
Each gleaming scale holds a single memory. With no other way to recall its life, Yaslash carefully curates its collection. For each new experience it wants to remember, Yaslash must choose an old one to forget forever.
Some say Yasaur forms when an elderly Venusaur refuses to travel to the afterlife. Yasaur's cherished memories of its best friend give it the strength to reunite with its Trainer and continue their adventure.
Yalord floats silently through the ocean, drawn to sources of negative emotion. Sailors' shanties tell of Yalord appearing near sinking ships, its buoyant massive body inadvertently providing refuge from the sea.
Fragments of memory seep out of its masks, lingering and inducing emotion in those who cross Yaoom's trail. Though most of the memories are bitter, a scant few are heartwarmingly sweet.
When touched, each segment of Yarock's body evokes a different ghostly memory. Some memories involve Pokémon that are thought to be extinct in today's era.
If provoked, Yamoth beats its wings to scatter the memories contained in its golden masks. Depending on the memory, foes may feel overpowering fear, grief, or shame.
The fruit growing from Yapius's neck is encased in a rind of solid gold. Trainers who have managed to peel it invariably report that the fruit tastes like their favorite childhood food.
Sliding toward prey with surprising speed, Cargoo latches onto them with its jaws and shakes them fiercely. Its soft body absorbs retaliatory blows with ease.
Vilemega beats its thick petals at high speed to keep itself in the air, creating a rumbling buzz. The petals' furious movement throws off gusts of toxic dust, so it is prudent to leave areas where Vilemega's buzz can be heard.
It lurks in hidden nooks, only emerging when Pokémon are stunned by its web's electrical charge. If prey manage to escape, Toxtula will stalk them and weave a second web in their path, coated with a deadly toxin.
When flash floods sweep through the desert, Cacrill rushes to leap into the flow. Trusting its buoyant tail to keep it at the surface, Cacrill greedily absorbs enough water to sustain itself through months of drought.
It flies into a rage when passersby approach, attacking unprovoked. However, since Venokey energetically beats its wings to scatter poisonous dust, its small body is often carried up and away from its target.
Floating at the water's surface, Luvflora photosynthesizes and stores energy in its iridescent, heart-shaped petals. It must keep an eye out for loving couples, who may attempt to pluck Luvflora's petals as romantic gifts.
Though the Heart Scale it carries is its pride and joy, Luvpiny can regrow it if needed. When it sees loving couples strolling on the beaches it makes its home on, Luvpiny toddles up to them and shyly offers its Heart Scale as a gift.
Luvidos attempts to headbutt foes with its delicate bubble, causing them to recoil in concerned horror. This perplexingly self-endangering behavior has given rise to theories that the bubble has replaced Luvidos's brain.
It confuses and alarms foes by threatening to ram its fragile bubble into them. As they scramble for ways to defeat Luvpardos without this gruesome scenario occurring, it turns its back and delivers a crushing blow with its weighty tail.
If Luvler thinks two people look compatible, it scuttles after them, flashing a heart sign with its claws. Romantics often gather a cast of Luvler to help out with their proposals, a task the Luvler are more than happy to carry out.
When it scents Trainers nearby, Zigyena abandons its usual curious wandering to investigate this discovery. Refusing to be distracted, Zigyena pursues its targets relentlessly until they give up and let it sniff them.
Flitting between treetops, Wurmrain dines on the tastiest and most tender leaves. It frightens off hungry bird Pokémon with the menacing eyespots on its antennae.
As it wraps itself in silk to prepare for evolution, Silrain takes great care to leave the eyespots on its antennae visible. Their intimidating glare is Silrain's only way to ward off predators.
Beautirain descend on flowery meadows in swarms, posturing aggressively with their eyespots to drive off rival bug Pokémon and monopolize the flowers' nectar. Each swarm is led by the Beautirain with the largest and brightest eyespots among them.
Casrain knows it is almost helpless during the evolution process. As it spins its cocoon, it painstakingly forms spikes and false eyes in hopes of deterring predators.
If the eyespots on its antennae fail to intimidate predators, Dustrain shakes the antennae to release clouds of toxic dust. Combined with its attraction to streetlights, this behaviour has gained Dustrain a reputation as a dangerous urban pest.
Surto's ability to shape its body makes it an excellent ambush hunter. Prey are lured in by the sweet scent it emits, unable to recognize Surto's multitude of forms.
Skating lightly across ponds, Surtox vibrates its wings to release toxic dust into the water. The poison stuns and disorients aquatic Pokémon, allowing Surtox to feed on plants without fear.
Flitting to and fro above ponds, it emits a sweet scent to lure prey out of hiding. If the smell draws a Pokémon larger than itself, Surain vibrates its eyespots menacingly and retreats with haste.
Surchop's body secretes a sticky syrup to ensure prey doesn't escape its grasp. Larger Pokémon have been observed tossing Surchop at boulders and displaying signs of amusement as Surchop briefly sticks to the rock.
Though Surchoke diligently trains every day, only the muscles of its torso show any signs of growth. Surchoke's limbs are still much stronger than those of a human, but its offers to help with hard work are often refused because of its appearance.
Surchamp's limbs appear fragile and delicate, but each holds enough strength to lift a truck. The flexibility of its limbs allows Surchamp to throw devastating blows at unpredictable angles.
Inordinately proud of its bright antennae, Masquechic goes to extreme lengths to keep them pristine. On rainy days, it finds a dry hollow and spits fireballs to ward off humidity.
Seeking out tunnel networks dug by Diglett, Masquelett frightens off their inhabitants with its glaring eyespots. By seizing ownership of these tunnels, Masquelett can avoid digging its own and potentially damaging its delicate antennae.
Walking home late at night, townsfolk are sometimes startled by large eyes suddenly looming out of the dark beyond streetlamps. Their terror subsides into annoyance when they realize it is just a Masquetox attracted to the light.
Hovering in place despite the stillness of its wings, Masquepius appears to follow commands from an unknown source. Unthinking terror is induced in those who meet its gaze.
When hungry Pokémon try to eat the Charti Berries growing from Masquepius's neck, it fans its antennae out. The apparent increase in size, combined with the appearance of large eyes, frightens off most berry thieves.
As it skims the surfaces of ponds, Pluskit emits pulses of electric charge. The abrupt change in conductivity brought by a predator's approach sends Pluskit skittering for safety.
Plusrain waves its antennae to and fro, showing support for its allies. Sparks shower from the antennae's markings in a motivational spectacle.
Upon spotting potential prey, Swaloud lets loose an earsplitting bellow to stun them before attempting to swallow them whole. The toxic fluids Swaloud secretes protect it from most retaliation.
Castrain flits restlessly to and fro, searching for the perfect spot to bask in the sun. The markings on its antennae act as storage for the heat it gathers this way.
Enterprising Trainers occasionally attempt to use Rapiros as a beast of burden, hoping to combine the strength of a Tauros with the speed of a Rapidash. Unfortunately, they usually overlook Tauros's bad temper and Rapidash's flames.
Slowkoth's habit of lying by the sea for days, staring unblinkingly, gave rise to many theories about what it could be watching for. These theories were dashed when scientists proved that Slowkoth simply forgets to close its eyes when sleeping.
Warain scuttles around nimbly on its four stubby legs. If threatened, it balances on its shell and spins around, scattering hair from its antennae. The fine hair acts as an irritant, deterring predators.
Grigast often appears in locations where beaches have been spoiled by chemical plants. Some say Grigast is born from the lonely spirits of sandcastles made long ago on those beaches.
Haunrita lurks near ill people and Pokémon, attempting to touch them with its leaf. Haunrita was feared and despised until it was discovered that the leaf's ghostly chill is extremely effective at breaking fevers.
When someone drops their guard around Genrain, the eye-like patterns on its antennae suddenly swivel toward them and glow. If its target shows signs of fright at this display, Genrain will become emboldened and attempt to steal their life force.
It burrows its way up to the top of high outcroppings, hoping to befriend potential Trainers by flying down and sitting on their head. Due to its massive weight, however, Onlu tends to come in for a landing rather faster than it intends to.
Some claim to have seen the circles on Hyprain's antennae swaying rhythmically, but scientists insist that the patterns are merely eyespots used for intimidation. Those spreading this rumor often mysteriously vanish.
