Pokédex Entries for Gastrodon

Generation 8 Pokédex Entries

East Sea

Sword

It secretes a purple fluid to deter enemies. This fluid isn't poisonous—instead, it's super sticky, and once it sticks, it's very hard to unstick.

Shield

Its body is covered in a sticky slime. It's very susceptible to dehydration, so it can't spend too much time on land.

West Sea

Sword

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

Shield

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