Battle Information
Pokédex Entries
"Although they are sharp, its claws and spikes often break off. They grow back the next day, so it is not bothered by the temporary loss." "It uses its claws to climb trees and then curls its body into a spiny ball, ready to drop onto any prey that appears." | |
"Its claws and horns often break off. The broken claws and horns can be used to carve plows for tilling farm fields." "Thanks to its thick claws, it’s good at climbing trees. There are plenty of Sandslash that park themselves in trees and go right to sleep." |
