Basculin Blue Striped

#154 in the Sword and Shield Pokédex • Hostile Pokémon

Sword

Anglers love the fight this Pokémon puts up on the hook. And there are always more to catch— many people release them into lakes illicitly.

Shield

In the past, it often appeared on the dinner table. The meat of red-striped Basculin is on the fatty side, and it’s more popular with the youth.
