Description

Although it can live on land, it prefers to stay in the water, where it has fewer natural enemies.

Although it has become capable of living on land, it spends its time in the water, where its prey, fish Pokémon, are plentiful.

Capable of living in or out of water. When out of water, it sweats to keep its body slimy.

It marches over the land in search of bug Pokémon to eat. Then it takes them underwater so it can dine on them where it’s safe.

Its body surface is always wet and slick with an oily fluid. Because of this greasy covering, it can easily slip and slide out of the clutches of any enemy in battle.
