Galar Pokédex #286 • Ogre Scorpion Pokémon
Drapion in the National Pokédex
Pokédex entries
Sword
Its poison is potent, but it rarely sees use. This Pokémon prefers to use physical force instead, going on rampages with its car-crushing strength.
Shield
It’s so vicious that it’s called the Sand Demon. Yet when confronted by Hippowdon, Drapion keeps a low profile and will never pick a fight.
