Pokedex Entries
Game | Entry |
---|---|
Sun | Possessed people controlled by this Pokémon transformed its sand mound into a castle. As it evolved, its power to curse grew ever stronger. |
Moon | Buried beneath the castle are masses of dried-up bones from those whose vitality it has drained. |
UltraSun | Each of its grains of sand has its own will. Palossand eats small Pokémon and siphons away their vital essence while they’re still alive. |
UltraMoon | Once it has whipped up a sandstorm to halt its opponents in their tracks, this terrifying Pokémon snatches away their vitality. |
Sword | Palossand is known as the Beach Nightmare. It pulls its prey down into the sand by controlling the sand itself, and then it sucks out their souls. |
Shield | This Pokémon lives on beaches, but it hates water. Palossand can’t maintain its castle-like shape if it gets drenched by a heavy rain. |
Scarlet | The terrifying Palossand drags smaller Pokémon into its sandy body. Once its victims are trapped, it drains them of their vitality whenever it pleases. |
Violet | From the hollows in its arms, it fires the bones of its victims, which are all dried up after being drained of their vitality. |
