PokéDex Descriptions
LA | Eats beach sand for nourishment. Should one Gastrodon encounter another of a different color, a fierce battle will inevitably ensue. |
P Y AS | It apparently had a huge shell for protection in ancient times. It lives in shallow tidal pools. |
D | It has a pliable body without any bones. If any part of its body is torn off, it grows right back. |
S | It has strong regenerative capabilities. Even if parts of it are bitten off by fish Pokémon, it will return to normal within a few hours. |
SW | Its search for food sometimes leads it onto land, where it leaves behind a sticky trail of slime as it passes through. |
US | Long ago, it had a shell on its back. There’s now a vestigial plate on its back that’s hard but thin. |
PL B W B2 W2 | Long ago, its entire back was shielded with a sturdy shell. There are traces of it left in its cells. |
M | Plankton, invisible to the naked eye, is its main food source. It comes onto the land periodically, but the reason for this is not known. |
SH | The softness of its body helps disperse the force of impacts, so although its body is uncommonly squishy, it’s also surprisingly resilient. |
UM | Their shape and color change, depending on their environment and diet. There are many of them at beaches where the waves are calm. |
HG SS X OR | When its natural enemy attacks, it oozes purple fluid and escapes. |
