Although Exeggcargo appears to have only one egg-yolk-esque head, additional "yolks" live within its hard shell. They bicker each morning about who shall serve as today's primary head.
It flies along gleefully on bubbly wings. Surprisingly temperamental, it tries to clean anything it's fond of with its suds, while headbutting anything it dislikes with its horn.
While many collectors would like one in their koi pools, Magking's tendency to boil any small body of water it finds itself in makes it impractical to keep. In nature, it mostly hangs out around geothermal vents.
The "spines" on its back are made of bunched-up silk. While they are too soft and flimsy to pose any real threat, they appear sharp enough to deter some predators when Weeslash curls up defensively.
Each of its tails is very heavy, but it never seems to struggle to hold them up. The mucus its skin excretes glistens brilliantly in the sun.
While its fur may often look disheveled, Ratnite carefully preens itself to avoid matting. Eating anything that moves, it gnaws on the bones of its prey to wear down its ever-growing front teeth.
Although the melodies it creates are highly praised, Porypuff's primitive technology means it can only produce chiptunes with two melody channels and one percussion channel.
Thanks to its updated audio drivers, it can produce exquisite and detailed music of any kind. Because of this, it is sometimes used as a living music player - a role which Porytuff actually greatly enjoys.
The Thunderstones within its shell can store inordinate amounts of electrical energy. When the time is right, Raistar conducts this incredible voltage through its tentacles.
After having tasted absolutely everything in its own plane of existence, Lickitina traveled to our reality in search of new flavors to experience.
It's said to have been formed from the angry spirits of Pokémon who lost their lives due to deforestation. This is thought to explain Spiritry's violent misanthropy.
Legend has it that Abdisc appears to couples who are facing imminent trouble in their love life. Some couples break up immediately upon seeing it, while others take its presence as an impetus to work through their issues together.
It is targeted by many for the unbelievably soft and luxurious fur growing on its head. However, since its excellent vision allows it to perceive threats from miles away, Luxtuff almost always evades those hoping to get their hands on its fur.
It rapidly vibrates to produce shrill ringing sounds on the upper end of the frequencies which humans can hear. Young people find its piercing din completely unbearable, while older folks cannot hear it at all.
It uses a white onion to mimic Meditite's uniquely-shaped head. While this can fool predators, it also has the unintended effect of attracting herbivorous Pokémon who may try to eat the onion.
Wigglytung undulates its tongue by sucking in large amounts of air and bellowing at a subsonic frequency. The purpose of this peculiar behavior is a topic of much speculation.
Trainers who were shocked by Wigglybuzz's electricity report hearing music while they were nearly electrocuted. The sound has often been compared to an electric guitar.
When its Trainer cannot sleep, Digzee will sprinkle some of its special sand into their eyes, which will cause them to doze off.
Rumor has it that if you appease Luvno, it will hypnotize your crush into falling in love with you. In reality, Luvno feed on lust, and they spread this false rumor to lure in their quarry.
Its three heads screech at dissonant frequencies, which Dugbat fine-tunes to produce maximal disorientation and distress in its target. It then sinks its teeth into its confused prey.
Somehow, its sand makes people fall asleep. Scientists tried to make it into an insomnia remedy, but it has no effect unless Dugno sprinkles it.
Occasionally, a tree is found deep in the forest with many Shiftown attached to its trunk. The significance of these trees is not yet understood.
When an enormous tree was felled by lightning, it is said that Shiftchu emerged from the stump. Electricity flows freely through its plant-like body.
It blows in on wintry winds and finds a tree to attach itself to. Forming a symbiotic relationship with its host tree, it absorbs its nutrients while scaring away any troublemakers.
Despite being an outstanding swimmer, Perwrath will do anything to avoid getting its tail wet. It uses its long tail to distract and confuse adversaries.
It puts people to sleep using its old, rusty pendulum. It's said that everyone who falls asleep in this way will dream of their ancestors from ancient times.
The "fur" which covers Primesect is actually a fuzzy kind of fungus. On the slightest provocation, it flies into an uncontrolled rage and scatters spores everywhere.
When it flies into a rage, it throws punches as if its fists have minds of their own. Researchers have debated whether this might be literally true.
When Primetly gets angry, it produces a potent gas that enrages anyone who inhales it. Since it is not immune to its own gas, this inevitably leads to a vicious cycle.
Its two pairs of claws make Maslash exceptionally effective at both burrowing and slicing up foes. Due to this, it has been used in excavations in treacherous places like Cerulean Cave and Mt. Silver.
One of Victreeton's three bodies can digest virtually anything using a potent chemical similar to battery acid. Somehow, it can transfer the absorbed nutrients to the other two bodies.
The enormous leek it holds has remarkably high nutritional content. However, those foolish enough to try to take it from Farwrath are liable to be badly bludgeoned by the very leek they seek.
It uses its balloon-like body to suck in enormous amounts of water to fire out of its cannons. However, if Blastuff inflates to too large a size, it has a difficult time aiming its water jets.
The string from its pendulum has become inexorably tangled with its vines. Hypgela has learned to writhe its vines along with the pendulum in a powerfully hypnotic motion.
Its horns have fused into a pendulum-like shape. Hypsir traps foes' heads inside the circular horn and applies pressure to their neck until they fall asleep.
Despite how slowly it moves, the pendulum-like rock on Hypcargo's back makes anyone observing it feel intensely lethargic. Everyone nearby ends up moving just as slowly as Hypcargo does.
The longer it sleeps, the more its magical pendulum becomes charged with energy. Once its pendulum is fully charged, Hypra can hypnotize targets without even needing to move.
