Sandile
#301 in the Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Pokédex • Desert Croc Pokémon
Ultra Sun
Alola, where it’s warm all year round, is a comfortable environment for this Pokémon. Sometimes you’ll even see it outside of deserts.
Ultra Moon
Sandile’s still not good at hunting, so it mostly eats things that have collapsed in the desert. It’s called “the cleaner of the desert.”
