Dustox, attracted to dim lights, visits secluded villages and towns during the evening. A huff of its red spores or a prolonged stare to its eye causes the sensation of intense pain, although no actual physical harm occurs.
It is a nocturnal Pokémon that flies from fields and mountains to the attraction of streetlights at night. A glare from its single scarlet eye makes even burly grown-ups freeze in utter fear.
