Cacturne is a nocturnal Pokémon that rarely moves during the day, which allows it to hold moisture. At night, it searches for prey or follows travelers until they become exhausted. It has lived in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon|deserts}} for so long that its blood has transformed into sand. With its thorny arms, it is able to use its former [[signature move]], {{m|Needle Arm}}.

Its face is similar to a classic {{wp|Halloween}} {{wp|jack-o'-lantern}}, referencing the tendency for scarecrows to have pumpkins for heads.
