Pokedex Entries
| Game | Entry |
|---|---|
| X | Camouflaged as rotten kelp, they spray liquid poison on prey that approaches unawares and then finish it off. |
| Y | It looks just like rotten kelp. It hides from foes while storing up power for its evolution. |
| UltraSun | It vanishes into seaweed and remains perfectly still to avoid attacks from large Pokémon. Rotten seaweed is its main food source. |
| UltraMoon | It’s not good at swimming, so it clings to the seaweed. In the Alola region, it’s often found near Dhelmise. |
| Sword | It drifts in the ocean, blending in with floating seaweed. When other Pokémon come to feast on the seaweed, Skrelp feasts on them instead. |
| Shield | Skrelp looks like a piece of rotten seaweed, so it can blend in with seaweed drifting on the ocean and avoid being detected by enemies. |
| Scarlet | Skrelp evades its enemies by hiding amid drifting seaweed. It eats rotten seaweed to create its poison. |
| Violet | This Pokémon is a poor swimmer. If it’s caught in a fierce storm, it will sometimes get washed far away and become unable to return to its home. |
