Being able to command these Mini-Noses, Probopass is able to catch prey and attack opponents from all three directions. On occasion, its Mini-Noses can get lost and may never come back. It emits strong magnetic fields that enable it to levitate, and can damage nearby appliances. Probopass can use the iron sand to form rocks, which it uses to destroy its prey. It is rarely seen in the wild, but may be found in mountainous regions very occasionally.

Probopass [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Nosepass}} when [[level]]ed up in a [[special magnetic field]]. Nosepass cannot evolve into Probopass in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, due to there being no area in [[Kanto]] or [[Johto]] with a special magnetic field. In {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, Nosepass is also able to evolve into Probopass when exposed to a [[Thunder Stone]].
