Charizard's bond with its Trainer is the source of its power. It boasts speed and maneuverability greater than that of a jet fighter.

Raticate

Raticate makes its Rattata underlings gather food for it, dining solely on the most nutritious and delicious fare.

In Alola, fish Pokémon are its prey. It can be seen circling above the ocean searching for food.

Nidoran Female

While this Pokémon does not prefer to fight, even one drop of the venom it secretes from its barbs can be fatal.

When it senses danger, it raises all the barbs on its body. These barbs grow more slowly than Nidorino’s.

Pokedex #037

Vulpix

These Pokémon live in packs in the snowy mountains and defend themselves with icy breath. I suspect this species changed its form to adapt to the frigid climate.

By freely changing the wavelength of its voice, Jigglypuff sings a mysterious melody sure to make any listener sleepy.

Oddish

Oddish often plants its root feet in the ground during the day and sows seeds as it walks about at night.

Pokedex #044

Gloom

The nectar it drools from its mouth smells so atrocious that it can make noses curl from more than a mile away.

Pokedex #045

Vileplume

Vileplume's petals are the largest in the world. As it walks, it scatters extremely allergenic pollen.

Pokedex #051

These daring Pokémon have coins on their foreheads. Darker coins are harder, and harder coins garner more respect among Meowth.

Pokedex #053

Persian

This Pokémon is one tough opponent. Not only does it have formidable physical abilities, but it’s also not above fighting dirty.

Pokedex #054

Psyduck

Suffers perpetual headaches. If the agony grows too great, Psyduck’s latent power erupts, contrary to Psyduck’s intent. Ergo, I am exploring ways to ease the pain.

Pokedex #055

Golduck

Golduck's body is strong, and it has webbing on its hands and feet. Golduck can swim easily through rough seas, clawing its way through the high waves.

Pokedex #056

Mankey

Mankey is extremely quick to anger. It could be docile one moment, then thrashing away the next instant.

Pokedex #057

Primeape

Primeape becomes angry if it sees an opponent’s eyes and gets angrier if the opponent runs. Even after it beats the opponent, it is still angry.

Pokedex #058

Growlithe often patrol their territory in pairs. I believe the igneous rock components in the fur of this species are the result of volcanic activity in its habitat.

Kadabra

There are rumors that a child with mystical powers became a Kadabra; however, this remains unverified. I suspect that the spoon Kadabra holds enhances its brain waves.

Alakazam’s adept at precognition. When attacks completely miss Alakazam, that’s because it’s seeing the future.

Pokedex #089

Muk

Muk’s coloration becomes increasingly vivid the more it feasts on its favorite dish—trash.

Cloyster

When attacked, it launches its spikes in quick volleys. Its innards have never been seen.

Lighter-than-air gases in its body keep it aloft. The gases not only smell; they are also explosive.

Pokedex #110

Weezing

Long ago, during a time when droves of factories fouled the air with pollution, Weezing changed into this form for some reason.

Pokedex #111

Rhyhorn

Ludicrously strong—when it butts heads with a mountain, it is the mountain that shatters. But its short legs struggle with turns, and it is incapable of stopping unless it collides with something.

Pokedex #112

Rhydon

Rapidly rotates its horn to bore through bedrock. It swaggers around volcanic regions, protected from the lava’s heat by its tough, armorlike hide.

Pokedex #113

Chansey

This kindly Pokémon lays highly nutritious eggs and shares them with injured Pokémon or people.

Pokedex #177

Natu

The look in its eyes gives the impression that it’s carefully observing you. If you approach it, Natu will hop away.

Xatu

While it can see the future, it has no desire to change it, which is probably why it remains motionless at all times.

Pokedex #388

Grotle

Appears where there is clean spring water. The fruit that grows on the shrubs on its shell is sweet, nutritious, and truly delicious.

Pokedex #389

Torterra

This remarkable, large-bodied Pokémon would serve beautifully as borrowed scenery for a garden, and its strength is peerless. Torterra roams the wilderness in search of clean water.

Pokedex #390

Chimchar

Full of vigor and always in high spirits. It was once known by the name “Lantern-Tail” and feared as some kind of apparition.

Pokedex #391

Monferno

The deeper the blue on its face, the more powerful it will grow to become. It leaps about every which way and lands powerful blows against its opponents with the flame on its tail.

Pokedex #392

Infernape

A tall, hardy Pokémon with a dazzling appearance. It shrouds itself in flame and battles as if engaged in dance—truly a sight to behold.

Pokedex #393

Piplup

Prefers cold climes and appears along coasts. It’s an adorable little thing—as cute as any child—but it’s also prideful, unwilling to accept handouts from people.

Pokedex #394

Prinplup

Prinplup swims gracefully through the frigid sea and sings with a voice like the roaring tide. It has powerful, sturdy wings and dignity to match.

Pokedex #395

Empoleon

Since ancient times, it has been revered by the people of Hisui, who call it the Master of the Waves. Its wings are a match for even master-crafted blades.

Pokedex #396

Starly

Starly often live in the fields and mountains, gathering in large flocks. Their cries are quite obnoxious. Though small, their wings are strong—a strike from them leaves pain that persists for a week.

Pokedex #397

Staravia

Staravia often form remarkably large flocks and are constantly fighting amongst themselves. I suspect that those with magnificent plumes on their heads are the strong ones.

Pokedex #398

Staraptor

Staraptor has left the flock, having gained strength enough to survive on its own. The astounding force with which Staraptor flies through the air allows it to carry away large, burly targets.

Pokedex #399

Bidoof

Bidoof has an unsophisticated face and is rarely flustered by anything. There have been incidents involving Bidoof sauntering into villages and gnawing on the houses without a single care.

Pokedex #400

Bibarel

Bibarel fur repels water and is also a fantastic material for heat retention. These Pokémon create dams on rivers to live in.

Pokedex #401

Kricketot

When the trees take on new hues, more of these Pokémon appear. The tone they create by striking their antennae together resembles that of the marimba, an instrument of foreign lands.

Pokedex #402

Kricketune

Kricketune uses its cutlass-like arms to produce sound, the melody of which varies from individual to individual. It is a worthwhile endeavor to seek out one’s favorite tunes.

Pokedex #403

Shinx

Shakes its body to generate electricity. Its stature belies its aggression—one must be patient to tame this Pokémon.

Pokedex #404

Luxio

Proudly uses its electrified claws as weapons. It seems to be a gracious Pokémon, evenly sharing the spoils of the hunt with others of its kind.

Pokedex #405

Luxray

Luxray often form packs, each having one male as leader. Legends say that when Luxray’s two eyes shimmer with gold, the Pokémon can see through anything.

Pokedex #406

Budew

When the sun’s light strengthens, the bud atop this Pokémon’s head opens. This is a sign to the people that the harsh winter is over, and the season of budding has begun.

Pokedex #407

Roserade

Hidden within the bouquet on each hand are thorned whips loaded with virulent poison. Roserade moves gracefully as it corners its prey and mercilessly lashes them with its whips.

Pokedex #408

Cranidos

An incredibly rare sight. They duel each other by ramming their heads together, and the resulting sound echoes throughout the area like the pealing of a bell.

Pokedex #409

Rampardos

Very little is known about its biology. Can knock down massive trees by smashing its beautiful, pearl-like crown against them.

Pokedex #410

Shieldon

Much remains unknown about this Pokémon, as few have ever seen it. However, we know that it is calm and dislikes conflict, and it enjoys polishing its face against trees and rocks.

Pokedex #411

Bastiodon

Bastiodon's face is sturdy—as strong as diamond—and this hardness offers a very stable defense. Much about this species is still unknown, such as its natural habitat.

Pokedex #412

Burmy

When confronted by a lack of other materials, Burmy will create its cloak using dust and refuse. The cloak seems to be more comfortable than one would think.

Pokedex #413

Wormadam

Wormadam's body, composed of refuse, blends in to the scenery so much as to be inconspicuous. This seems to be the perfect way for the Pokémon to evade the detection of predators.

Pokedex #414

Mothim

Scatters steel-colored scales as it flaps its wings. Despite being observed feeding primarily on the nectar of flowers, Mothim is not often seen around flower gardens.

Pokedex #415

Combee

The trio is together from birth. It constantly gathers nectar from flowers to please Vespiquen.

Pokedex #416

Vespiquen

Commands its subjects to build its hive. It will dispatch any interlopers who dare sneak into its nest and use them as nourishment for itself.

Pokedex #417

Pachirisu

A species related to the Pikachu line. Though Pachirisu is a calm Pokémon, it still presents a danger should one touch its electrified tail or cheeks.

Pokedex #418

Buizel

Buizel moves freely in the water by spinning its forked tail for propulsion. The resemblance to the screw of a steamboat is coincidental.

Pokedex #419

Floatzel

Floatzel is a common sight around fishing ports. It is known to rescue people and help fishers carry what they caught.

Pokedex #420

Cherubi

Once the fruit growing alongside the main body is large and plump, Cherubi will use the nutrients within to evolve. The fruit then detaches, becoming nourishment for other creatures.

Pokedex #421

Cherrim

Cheerfully active on sunny days. Immediately closes its petals and becomes immobile once the sun becomes hidden, however.

Pokedex #422

Shellos

Shellos oozes a purple fluid to deter enemies. Apparently, there are more West Sea Shellos now than there were in the past.

Pokedex #423

Gastrodon

Gastrodon appears on beaches where the waters are shallow. Once it catches prey, it will slowly melt them with its mucus before slurping them up.

Pokedex #424

Ambipom

To affirm their kinship, members of this species will form a ring by linking their newly doubled tails together. On rare occasions, humans have been accepted into such rings.

Pokedex #425

Drifloon

Said to lure away young children and carry them off to the afterlife. Some whisper that Drifloon are formed of reincarnated human souls, but these rumors are as yet unconfirmed.

Pokedex #426

Drifblim

Drifblim drifts along at dusk, perfectly silent. Its transient, melancholy aspect touches some people deeply—every so often, one will come upon a song or poem devoted to Drifblim.

Pokedex #427

Buneary

My hypothesis as to why Buneary rolls up its ears is that its hearing is far too keen. I surmise that the Pokémon protects its hearing by limiting the sound that may enter its ears.

Pokedex #428

Lopunny

Mega Evolution awakens its combative instincts. It has shed any fur that got in the way of its attacks.

Pokedex #429

Mismagius

The incantations Mismagius chants can ward against misfortune, so a custom exists of inviting it into one’s home. Incur the Pokémon’s displeasure, however, and disaster will surely ensue.

Pokedex #430

Honchkrow

A single cry from this nocturnal Pokémon, and more than 100 of its Murkrow cronies will assemble.

Pokedex #431

Glameow

Bewitches humans with its helical tail and piercing gaze. Its hidden claws are quite sharp as well, making this Pokémon an exceedingly tricky opponent if antagonized.

Pokedex #432

Purugly

Though impudent and difficult to tame, Purugly enjoys great popularity due to its fur, the beauty of which surpasses even velveteen.

Pokedex #433

Chingling

This Pokémon gave me an excruciating headache when it seemingly cried out without making a sound. Perhaps there are some sounds that the human ear is simply incapable of hearing.

Pokedex #434

Stunky

The poison that gushes from its aft end is accompanied by an utterly evil-smelling odor with such potency that one whiff can induce memory loss.

Pokedex #435

Skuntank

Sprays a poisonous fluid to take down prey. Sometimes, unable to stomach the stench of its own fluid, it leaves the bested prey uneaten.

Pokedex #436

Bronzor

Floats using a mysterious energy. The pattern engraved upon its back is held as sacred and can sometimes be found in imagery from ancient cemeteries and other such timeworn places.

Pokedex #437

Bronzong

Some believe that its bell-like cry opens holes to another world. It has been revered as a deity since ancient times.

Pokedex #438

Bonsly

Bonsly's tears elicit sympathy from those who see them, but do not be deceived! This expulsion of body water is merely a physiological mechanism for keeping itself in good health.

Pokedex #439

Mime Jr.

Known to turn up in bustling marketplaces now and again. It mimics people much as a child would, then watches how they react, eyes sparkling.

Pokedex #440

Happiny

Happiny carries a round, white rock in its belly pouch. If it gets along well with someone, it will sometimes give that person the rock.

Pokedex #441

Chatot

A versatile performer skilled in the imitation of human speech. It is said that older, more experienced Chatot can even understand the meaning of the words they mimic.

Pokedex #442

Spiritomb

Spiritomb lays curses by thinking wicked thoughts. Writings tell that this Pokémon was born out of the assembly of five score and eight malevolent spirits.

Pokedex #443

Gible

Gible nests in caves untouched by sunlight. Its sharp teeth may fall out when worn away or after an impact, but they regrow within a few days.

Pokedex #444

Gabite

Though Gabite are usually of a violent disposition, when I gave one a glass bead it had been eyeing covetously, it suddenly became quite docile.

Pokedex #445

Garchomp

Garchomp's disposition is more vicious than before its Mega Evolution. Garchomp carves its opponents up with the scythes on both arms.

Pokedex #446

Munchlax

Munchlax's robust stomach allows it to nonchalantly devour even rotted matter. It pays frequent visits to villages, seeking out food scraps intended for compost.

Pokedex #447

Riolu

Riolu has the peculiar power of being able to see emotions, such as joy and rage, in the form of waves.

Pokedex #448

Lucario

Bathed in explosive energy, its combative instincts have awakened. For its enemies, it has no mercy whatsoever.

Pokedex #449

Hippopotas

Hippopotas shuts its nostrils tight, then travels through sand as if walking. They form colonies of around 10.

Pokedex #450

Hippowdon

Short-tempered and easily moved to violence. It whips up whirlwinds of sand to crush its foes’ spirits, then goes in for the attack.

Pokedex #451

Skorupi

Skorupi's claws are not only razor-sharp but poisonous, making Skorupi a highly dangerous Pokémon. It seems to be weakened by cold temperatures, however.

Pokedex #452

Drapion

Has a brutish, ferocious temperament. With immense strength and a sturdy shell off which swords will bounce, it rampages about and wreaks havoc.

Pokedex #453

Croagunk

A poison wielder with a dastardly personality. Despite such qualities, this species is afforded a measure of popularity due to its peculiar cry and comical features.

Pokedex #454

Toxicroak

Toxicroak's crimson claws contain a virulent toxin. This toxin can be made into a tonic by diluting it, mixing it with several types of wild grass, and boiling it down over two days.

Pokedex #455

Carnivine

Though this is a plant Pokémon, it has a gluttonous and unruly temperament. Carnivine attacks its prey with its cavernous maw wide open.

Pokedex #456

Finneon

What a gorgeous sight this Pokémon is as it swims with its long, pink-painted caudal fins fluttering behind it. Finneon’s beautiful appearance has led to its nickname: “finery fish.”

Pokedex #457

Lumineon

Uses its gleaming fins to hunt its prey. The view of Lumineon schooling near the surface of the sea at night is breathtaking— it’s as though there were shining stars right there.

Pokedex #458

Mantyke

Though ball-like in shape, this Pokémon is a proficient swimmer. I have discovered that if a Mantyke spends much time with schools of Remoraid, it will eventually achieve evolution.

Pokedex #459

Snover

One is likely to encounter this Pokémon while out in the snow. There are stories of Snover appearing in human settlements but doing no harm—rather, they bond with the children.

Pokedex #460

Abomasnow

A powerful Pokémon that can split huge boulders with ease. Dislikes associating with others and chooses to live quietly deep within the mountains, playing with the snow.

Pokedex #461

Weavile

This species corners prey as a pack, under the guidance of a leader. Weavile displays increased cunning, leading me to speculate that its evolution caused further brain development.

Pokedex #462

Magnezone

As it zooms through the sky, this Pokémon seems to be receiving signals of unknown origin while transmitting signals of unknown purpose.

Pokedex #463

Lickilicky

Lickilicky's tongue can extend and contract freely, and it is capable of reaching lengths over 10 times Lickilicky’s height. Beware of the saliva, as it contains corrosive elements.

Pokedex #464

Rhyperior

This Pokémon evolved through use of a curious item. Its rocklike hide is composed of a mysterious substance and can withstand a blow from a masterwork sword with nary a scratch.

Pokedex #465

Tangrowth

Draped with long vines, it resembles a shrub in appearance. It swings bundles of vines as though they were arms, wrapping them around prey to ensnare them.

Pokedex #466

Electivire

Electivire's evolution was induced by an unusual item, and its electrical output rises along with its heart rate. From its tails, it can unleash an electric current measuring 20,000 volts.

Pokedex #467

Magmortar

Use of a strange item caused this Pokémon to evolve. Fireballs launched from the ends of its tubelike arms are hot enough to melt an iron pot in an instant.

Pokedex #468

Togekiss

Scant few have ever sighted this Pokémon. After studying what literature remains, I am certain Togekiss will reveal itself when peace reigns in the land.

Pokedex #469

Yanmega

Extremely violent. When hunting, it wastes none of its energy, aiming only for prey’s most vulnerable spots. Any who manage to tame this Pokémon must be of incredible bravery.

Pokedex #470

Leafeon

Cells similar to those of plants have been found in its fur. Its hard tail can fell a large tree with one stroke, and the tail’s sharpness exceeds even that of a sword crafted by a master.

Pokedex #471

Glaceon

Glaceon is able to lower its body temperature very quickly. It freezes the atmosphere, creating diamond dust that glitters like gems while it flutters and dances around.

Pokedex #472

Gliscor

Gliscor glides soundlessly on pitch-black wings and sinks sharp fangs into the throat of its prey. It takes on a look of satisfaction once it has entirely drained its prey of blood.

Pokedex #473

Mamoswine

This species reached its zenith during the period known as the ice age. I suspect that Hisui’s frigid climate is in harmony with Mamoswine’s constitution, thus awakening hidden potential.

Pokedex #474

Porygon-Z

A curious item induced this evolution. The Pokémon’s offensive capabilities have greatly increased, but the strangeness of its behavior has magnified in equal measure. This worries me.

Pokedex #475

Gallade

The blades extending from its elbows are sharper than the finest swords. Its swordsmanship, albeit self-taught, is astonishingly impressive.

Pokedex #476

Probopass

Probopass is able to emit powerful magnetism, allowing it control over the iron sand that forms its luscious mustache. Using this iron sand, Probopass forms hard stones with which it smites its prey.

Pokedex #477

Dusknoir

Comes to those whose lives have come to an end and escorts their souls to the afterlife. Known to mistakenly take the souls of those who yet have life left in them, albeit rarely.

Pokedex #478

Froslass

Froslass freezes prey by blowing its −58 degree Fahrenheit breath. It is said to then secretly display its prey.

Pokedex #479

Rotom

This Rotom has possessed a lawn mower. It will mow down grass and flowers, then swagger around with pride at its accomplishments.

Pokedex #480

Uxie

A Pokémon feared but also respected for stealing away the memories of evildoers. I have found records that suggest Uxie holds dominion over knowledge.

Pokedex #481

Mesprit

Known as the Being of Emotion. In legend, this Pokémon was feared, as any who showed disrespect would have their emotions thrown into disarray.

Pokedex #482

Azelf

The dreaded Being of Willpower. Legends tell of this Pokémon manipulating the will of its adversaries and turning them into puppets of its own.

Pokedex #483

Dialga

Radiant light caused Dialga to take on a form bearing a striking resemblance to the creator Pokémon. Dialga now wields such colossal strength that one must conclude this is its true form.

Pokedex #484

Palkia

Palkia soars across the sky in a form that greatly resembles the creator of all things. Perhaps this imitation of appearance is Palkia’s strategy for gaining Arceus’s powers.

Pokedex #485

Heatran

Stories tell of this Pokémon being birthed from the boiling magma within Mount Coronet. Its molten-steel body holds many mysteries.

Pokedex #486

Regigigas

According to legend, Regigigas pulled landmasses together and bound them with rope to create the continent of Hisui. Though I have my doubts, the story could well contain a shred of truth.

Pokedex #487

Giratina

Giratina loses its legs upon changing into this form. I believe this Pokémon must hail from a world where the heavens and the earth are as one, though I have no way of proving it.

Pokedex #488

Cresselia

Cresselia is reminiscent of the crescent moon. It leaves a brilliant line of light in its wake as it flies across the night sky. I daresay it resembles the heavenly maiden who created the Milky Way.

Pokedex #489

Phione

Can be seen floating offshore during seasons when the seas are warm. Its azure body blends in with the ocean waters—logic suggests this is a defense mechanism against natural predators.

Pokedex #490

Manaphy

Rumored to migrate across the oceans and visit Hisui’s coastal waters only rarely. Although Manaphy resembles Phione, it is also quite different. The relation between the two is unclear.

Pokedex #491

Darkrai

On a moonless night, a strange incident occurred in which every one of a village’s inhabitants suffered nightmares. The villagers attested that Darkrai appeared before them in these nightmares.

Pokedex #492

Shaymin

Upon taking in the scent of a particular rare flower, Shaymin is enveloped in light, and its tiny body transforms. I took a whiff of the flower myself, but alas, my body remained unchanged.

Pokedex #493

Arceus

Arceus is the heavenly fount from which pours the light that shines across Hisui. Its luminance guides and protects all Pokémon. Hisuian mythology states that Arceus is the creator of all things.

Pokedex #494

Victini

When it shares the infinite energy it creates, that being’s entire body will be overflowing with power.

Pokedex #495

Snivy

Being exposed to sunlight makes its movements swifter. It uses vines more adeptly than its hands.

Pokedex #496

Servine

When it gets dirty, its leaves can’t be used in photosynthesis, so it always keeps itself clean.

Pokedex #497

Serperior

Serperior only gives its all against strong opponents who are not fazed by the glare from Serperior’s noble eyes.

Pokedex #498

Tepig

Tepig loves to eat roasted berries, but sometimes it gets too excited and burns them to a crisp.

Pokedex #499

Pignite

The more it eats, the more fuel it has to make the fire in its stomach stronger. This fills it with even more power.

Pokedex #500

Emboar

A flaring beard of fire is proof that it is fired up. It is adept at using many different moves.

Pokedex #501

Oshawott

This Pokémon from the Unova region uses the shell on its belly as a weapon to cut down its foes. Thus, I’ve conferred upon this shell the name “scalchop.”

Pokedex #502

Dewott

Dewott's exquisite double-scalchop technique is likely the result of daily training, and it can send even masters of the blade fleeing in defeat.

Pokedex #503

Samurott

Hard of heart and deft of blade, this rare form of Samurott is a product of the Pokémon’s evolution in the region of Hisui. Its turbulent blows crash into foes like ceaseless pounding waves.

Pokedex #504

Patrat

Extremely cautious, one of them will always be on the lookout, but it won’t notice a foe coming from behind.

Pokedex #505

Watchog

Using luminescent matter, it makes its eyes and body glow and stuns attacking opponents.

Pokedex #506

Lillipup

This Pokémon is far brighter than the average child, and Lillipup won’t forget the love it receives or any abuse it suffers.

Pokedex #507

Herdier

The black fur that covers this Pokémon’s body is dense and springy. Even sharp fangs bounce right off.

Pokedex #508

Stoutland

Stoutland is immensely proud of its impressive moustache. It’s said that moustache length is what determines social standing among this species.

Pokedex #509

Purrloin

Opponents that get drawn in by its adorable behavior come away with stinging scratches from its claws and stinging pride from its laughter.

Pokedex #510

Liepard

This stealthy Pokémon sneaks up behind prey without making any sound at all. It competes with Thievul for territory.

Pokedex #511

Pansage

Pansage’s good at finding berries and gathers them from all over. It’s kind enough to share them with friends.

Pokedex #512

Simisage

Simisage strikes its enemies with a thorn-covered tail. The leaf on its head is bitter.

Pokedex #513

Pansear

This Pokémon lives in caves in volcanoes. The fire within the tuft on its head can reach 600 degrees Fahrenheit.

Pokedex #514

Simisear

When it gets excited, embers rise from its head and tail and it gets hot. For some reason, it loves sweets.

Pokedex #515

Panpour

The water stored inside the tuft on its head is full of nutrients. It waters plants with it using its tail.

Pokedex #516

Simipour

Simipour prefers places with clean water. When its tuft runs low, it replenishes it by siphoning up water with its tail.

Pokedex #517

Munna

Munna eats dreams and releases mist. The mist is pink when it’s eating a good dream, and black when it’s eating a nightmare.

Pokedex #518

Musharna

Musharna drowses and dreams all the time. It’s best to leave it be if it’s just woken up, as it’s a terrible grump when freshly roused from sleep.

Pokedex #519

Pidove

Pidove’s forgetful and not very bright, but many Trainers love it anyway for its friendliness and sincerity.

Pokedex #520

Tranquill

These bright Pokémon have acute memories. Apparently delivery workers often choose them as their partners.

Pokedex #521

Unfezant

Unfezant are exceptional fliers. The females are known for their stamina, while the males outclass them in terms of speed.

Pokedex #522

Blitzle

Pokedex #523

Zebstrika

When this ill-tempered Pokémon runs wild, it shoots lightning from its mane in all directions.

Roggenrola

When it detects a noise, it starts to move. The energy core inside it makes this Pokémon slightly warm to the touch.

Boldore

Boldore relies on sound in order to monitor what’s in its vicinity. When angered, it will attack without ever changing the direction it’s facing.

Pokedex #526

Gigalith

Although its energy blasts can blow away a dump truck, they have a limitation— they can only be fired when the sun is out.

Pokedex #527

Woobat

Woobat emits ultrasonic waves as it flutters about, searching for its prey—bug Pokémon.

Pokedex #528

Swoobat

The auspicious shape of this Pokémon’s nose apparently led some regions to consider Swoobat a symbol of good luck.

Pokedex #529

Drilbur

Drilbur’s a digger, using its claws to burrow through the ground. It causes damage to vegetable crops, so many farmers have little love for it.

Pokedex #530

Excadrill

Known as the Drill King, this Pokémon can tunnel through the terrain at speeds of over 90 mph.

Pokedex #531

Audino

This Pokémon has a kind heart. By touching with its feelers, Audino can gauge other creatures’ feelings and physical conditions.

Pokedex #532

Timburr

Timburr that have started carrying logs that are about three times their size are nearly ready to evolve.

Pokedex #533

Gurdurr

Gurdurr excels at demolition—construction is not its forte. In any case, there’s skill in the way this Pokémon wields its metal beam.

Pokedex #534

Conkeldurr

When going all out, this Pokémon throws aside its concrete pillars and leaps at opponents to pummel them with its fists.

Pokedex #535

Tympole

Tympole uses sound waves to communicate with others of its kind. People and other Pokémon species can’t hear its cries of warning.

On occasion, their cries are sublimely pleasing to the ear. Palpitoad with larger lumps on their bodies can sing with a wider range of sounds.

Pokedex #537

Seismitoad

This Pokémon is popular among the elderly, who say the vibrations of its lumps are great for massages.

Pokedex #538

Throh

Throh often train in groups of five. Any member that can’t keep up will discard its belt and leave the group.

Pokedex #539

Sawk

The karate chops of a Sawk that’s trained itself to the limit can cleave the ocean itself.

Pokedex #542

Leavanny

Upon finding a small Pokémon, it weaves clothing for it from leaves by using the sticky silk secreted from its mouth.

As long as this Pokémon bathes in sunlight, its cotton keeps growing. If too much cotton fluff builds up, Whimsicott tears it off and scatters it.

Pokedex #548

Petilil

If the leaves on its head are pruned with regularity, this Pokémon can be grown into a fine plump shape.

Pokedex #549

Lilligant

I suspect that its well-developed legs are the result of a life spent on mountains covered in deep snow. The scent it exudes from its flower crown heartens those in proximity.

Pokedex #550

Basculin

Though it differs from other Basculin in several respects, including demeanor—this one is gentle—I have categorized it as a regional form given the vast array of shared qualities.

Pokedex #551

Sandile

Sandile is small, but its legs and lower body are powerful. Pushing sand aside as it goes, Sandile moves through the desert as if it’s swimming.

Pokedex #552

Krokorok

Although this Pokémon has specialized eyes that allow it to see in the dark, Krokorok won’t move much at night—the desert gets cold after sunset.

Pokedex #553

Krookodile

While terribly aggressive, Krookodile also has the patience to stay hidden under sand for days, lying in wait for prey.

Pokedex #554

Darumaka

The colder they get, the more energetic they are. They freeze their breath to make snowballs, using them as ammo for playful snowball fights.

Darmanitan

Darmanitan takes this form when enraged. It won’t stop spewing flames until its rage has settled, even if its body starts to melt.

Maractus

Once each year, this Pokémon scatters its seeds. They’re jam-packed with nutrients, making them a precious food source out in the desert.

Dwebble first tries to find a rock to live in, but if there are no suitable rocks to be found, Dwebble may move in to the ports of a Hippowdon.

Pokedex #558

Crustle

Crustle's thick claws are its greatest weapons. They’re mighty enough to crack Rhyperior’s carapace.

Pokedex #559

Scraggy

Scraggy protects itself with its durable skin. It’s thought that this Pokémon will evolve once its skin has completely stretched out.

Pokedex #560

Scrafty

While mostly known for having the temperament of an aggressive ruffian, this Pokémon takes very good care of its family, friends, and territory.

Pokedex #561
