Gastrodon (Pokémon): Difference between revisions
I thought the intention was to use the fanciest wording possible, to add high-class feeling to articles. Is that not the case? Also, I did not remove the nowiki tags, the Visual Editor did that all on its own

Gastrodon | Gastrodon has [[#Form data|two different forms]]: '''West Sea Gastrodon''', which is pink and brown in appearance, and '''East Sea Gastrodon''', which is blue and green. They are found on the respective sides of [[Sinnoh]]'s mountain range.<!-- Due to this, there is a myth that the Sinnoh region was once split in two.--> | ||

Much like its pre-evolved form, it has a slug-like body with a round head and a {{wp|Mantle (mollusc)|mantle}} covering the top half of its body. It has six stubby legs and two black eyes with white pupils, with a mark imitating a third eye appearing on its forehead. A yellow stripe runs along the edge of its mantle, through its two lower eyes, and around the back of its head. Like {{p|Shellos}}, Gastrodon has two forms based on the sea it lives in. | ||
In its West Sea form, it has a pair of large tentacles on its head that curve upward | In its West Sea form, it has a pair of large tentacles on its head that curve upward and a smaller, straighter pair on its neck. Its underside is pink, while its mantle is brown, with three pink spots on each side of its back. There are also two lumps on its back, resembling the {{wp|cerata}} on real-life sea slugs. | ||
In its East Sea form, it retains the head tentacles it had as a Shellos, which are now fully green and angled slightly | In its East Sea form, it retains the head tentacles it had as a Shellos, which are now fully green and angled slightly further upward. Its underside is turquoise, while its mantle is forest green with two turquoise spots on each side. It has a pair of yellow, fin-like cerata on its back and a wavy yellow line bordering its side and rear. | ||

It is also a relative of {{p|Shellder}} and {{p|Cloyster}}. When threatened, it oozes a purple liquid and flees. While not poisonous, the fluid is very bitter and sticky. Its mucus-coated body is soft and squishy yet surprisingly resilient, and it leaves behind a trail of sticky slime when moving on land. It also has strong regenerative capabilities that allow it to recover from injuries or dismemberment within a few hours. In ancient times, it had a shell on its back, which gradually became a thin yet hard vestigial plate. | ||
Gastrodon lives in shallow tidal pools, beaches, and rocky shorelines. Its diet consists mainly of plankton, but it is occasionally known to move onto land to look for other foods, such as beach sand. When it finds prey, it melts it with mucus before eating them. While Gastrodon cannot stay out of water for too long due to its body being highly vulnerable to dehydration, it becomes more active during cloudy or rainy weather. It has been found on far-off mountains during times of constant rain. The two forms of Gastrodon are known to engage in heated conflict with one another. West Sea Gastrodon was much more numerous in the past than it is in the present. Conversely, East Sea Gastrodon's population has visibly increased in population as of late. | |||
=== | ===Forms=== | ||
West Sea Gastrodon | Gastrodon has two separate forms: West Sea Gastrodon and East Sea Gastrodon. The two forms are purely cosmetic, and do not affect base stats or level-up moves. | ||

===Evolution=== | ===Form data=== | ||
Gastrodon has two different forms: West Sea Gastrodon and East Sea Gastrodon. In most cases, where it is encountered in the {{pkmn2|wild}} determines its form. This is purely a cosmetic difference, and this Pokémon cannot change between forms. | |||
West Sea Gastrodon is pink and brown in color, whereas East Sea Gastrodon is blue and green. There is also a slight difference in shape depending on the form. | |||
In [[Sinnoh]] and [[Hisui]], West Sea Gastrodon is encountered west of [[Mount Coronet]], while East Sea Gastrodon is encountered east of Mount Coronet. In [[Paldea]], West Sea Gastrodon is encountered in [[Casseroya Lake]], while East Sea Gastrodon is encountered in [[North Province (Area One)]]; both forms can also be found in [[Tera Raid Battle]]s regardless of location. In other [[region]]s, only one form appears in the wild per game (with the other only obtainable via [[trade|trading]] or [[transfer]]): Gastrodon only appears in its West Sea form in [[Kalos]]'s [[Friend Safari]], and in [[Alola]] and [[Galar]], only East Sea Gastrodon appear in the wild. | |||
