Skrelp Pokédex Entries

X, Omega Ruby:Camouflaged as rotten kelp, they spray liquid poison on prey that approaches unawares and then finish it off.
Y, Alpha Sapphire:It looks just like rotten kelp. It hides from foes while storing up power for its evolution.
Ultra Sun:It vanishes into seaweed and remains perfectly still to avoid attacks from large Pokémon. Rotten seaweed is its main food source.
Ultra Moon:It’s not good at swimming, so it clings to the seaweed. In the Alola region, it’s often found near Dhelmise.
Sword:It drifts in the ocean, blending in with floating seaweed. When other Pokémon come to feast on the seaweed, Skrelp feasts on them instead.
Shield:Skrelp looks like a piece of rotten seaweed, so it can blend in with seaweed drifting on the ocean and avoid being detected by enemies.
Scarlet:Skrelp evades its enemies by hiding amid drifting seaweed. It eats rotten seaweed to create its poison.
Violet:This Pokémon is a poor swimmer. If it’s caught in a fierce storm, it will sometimes get washed far away and become unable to return to its home.
