Pokédex Entries
"This Pokémon generates electricity when it digests food. It uses its five hard teeth to scrape seaweed off surfaces and eat it." "This Pokémon is so timid that even brushing against seaweed will make it discharge electricity in surprise. Its lips do not conduct electricity." | |
"It feeds on seaweed, using its teeth to scrape it off rocks. Electric current flows from the tips of its spines." "It stores electricity in each spine. Even if one gets broken off, it still continues to emit electricity for at least three hours." |
