Sliggoo • Generation VIII Pokédex

Scarlet/Violet support is in the works!

Thank you for your interest in having the Marriland Pokédex updated to support Pokémon Scarlet & Violet! This has been something that I've been wanting to update for awhile, and it is my current project to implement support for the new games and The Teal Mask DLC. Thank you for your patience as I work on this over the coming week or two!

Pokédex Entries for Sliggoo

Generation 8 Pokédex Entries

Sword
Although this Pokémon isn't very strong, its body is coated in a caustic slime that can melt through anything, so predators steer clear of it.
Shield
The lump on its back contains its tiny brain. It thinks only of food and escaping its enemies.

Generation 7 Pokédex Entries

Sun
It has trouble drawing a line between friends and food. It will calmly try to melt and eat even those it gets along well with.
Moon
This Pokémon's mucous can dissolve anything. Toothless, it sprays mucous on its prey. Once they're nicely dissolved, it slurps them up.
Ultra Sun
It crawls along sluggishly. The swirly protrusion on its back is filled with its brain and other organs.
Ultra Moon
Its entire body is covered with gooey mucus that can dissolve anything. Be sure to put gloves on if you're going to touch it.

Generation 6 Pokédex Entries

X Omega Ruby
It drives away opponents by excreting a sticky liquid that can dissolve anything. Its eyes devolved, so it can't see anything.
Y Alpha Sapphire
Its four horns are a high-performance radar system. It uses them to sense sounds and smells, rather than using ears or a nose.
