Huntail
#186 in the Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Pokédex • Deep Sea Pokémon
Omega Ruby
Huntail’s presence went unnoticed by people for a long time because it lives at extreme depths in the sea. This Pokémon’s eyes can see clearly even in the murky dark depths of the ocean.
Alpha Sapphire
Huntail’s tail is shaped like a fish. It uses the tail to attract prey, then swallows the prey whole with its large, gaping mouth. This Pokémon swims by wiggling its slender body like a snake.
