Pokédex Entries

Sword "Its search for food sometimes leads it onto land, where it leaves behind a sticky trail of slime as it passes through." Shield "The softness of its body helps disperse the force of impacts, so although its body is uncommonly squishy, it’s also surprisingly resilient."
Legends: Arceus "Eats beach sand for nourishment. Should one Gastrodon encounter another of a different color, a fierce battle will inevitably ensue."
Platinum "Long ago, its entire back was shielded with a sturdy shell. There are traces of it left in its cells."
HeartGold SoulSilver "When its natural enemy attacks, it oozes purple fluid and escapes."
