Lore

Version-specific Pokédex entries for this Pokémon.
Pokémon Sword box art

Sword

Its search for food sometimes leads it onto land, where it leaves behind a sticky trail of slime as it passes through.

Pokémon Shield box art

Shield

The softness of its body helps disperse the force of impacts, so although its body is uncommonly squishy, it’s also surprisingly resilient.

Evolution

Evolution requirements shown in a compact table or chain view.
