SS X | Even if its body is torn, it can regenerate as long as the glowing central core remains intact. |
S | Even if its body is torn, it can regenerate as long as the glowing central core re mains intact. |
SH | Fish Pokémon nibble at it, but Staryu isn’t bothered. Its body regenerates quickly, even if part of it is completely torn off. |
D P PL B W | If its body is torn, it can grow back if the red core remains. The core flashes at midnight. |
SW | If you visit a beach at the end of summer, you’ll be able to see groups of Staryu lighting up in a steady rhythm. |
US | In many places, there are folktales of stardust falling into the ocean and becoming Staryu. |
FR Y | It appears in large numbers by seashores. At night, its central core flashes with a red light. |
E | It gathers with others in the night and makes its red core glow on and off with the twinkling stars. It can regenerate limbs if they are severed from its body. |
S | Large numbers of these Pokémon make their home at the seaside. At night, a strange red glow radiates from the center of their bodies. |
UM | No number of injuries can bother Staryu. Its amazing regenerative powers return it to its previous state in half a day! |

R | STARYU’s center section has an organ called the core that shines bright red. If you go to a beach toward the end of summer, the glowing cores of these POKéMON look like the stars in the sky. |
AS | Staryu apparently communicates with the stars in the night sky by flashing the red core at the center of its body. If parts of its body are torn, this Pokémon simply regenerates the missing pieces and limbs. |
OR | Staryu’s center section has an organ called the core that shines bright red. If you go to a beach toward the end of summer, the glowing cores of these Pokémon look like the stars in the sky. |
M | This Pokémon gets nibbled on by Lumineon and others. Thanks to its red core, it regenerates fast, so it’s unconcerned by their snack attacks. |
C | When the stars twinkle at night, it floats up from the sea floor, and its body's center core flickers. |
