Summary

Goomy is a Dragon-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VI.

Type: Dragon

Abilities:

  • Sap Sipper: Boosts the Attack stat when hit by a Grass-type move.
  • Hydration: Heals status conditions if it is raining.
  • Gooey (Hidden Ability): Lowers the opponent's Speed stat when Goomy is hit by a contact move.

Physical Characteristics:

  • Goomy is a small, dragon-like Pokémon with a soft, amorphous body.
  • It is primarily purple with a light green underside.
  • Features small, round eyes and short, stubby antennae on its head.
  • Its body is covered in a viscous, slimy substance that helps keep it hydrated.

Behavior and Habitat:

  • Goomy is known to inhabit damp, swampy areas and is often found in wetlands.
  • It prefers to stay in places with high humidity to prevent its skin from drying out.
  • Despite being a Dragon-type, it is quite timid and often hides from threats.

In Battle:

  • Goomy is known for its special defense, making it a resilient opponent against special attackers.
  • Its notable moves include Dragon Breath and Rain Dance.
  • It is strong against other Dragon-type Pokémon but is weak to Ice, Dragon, and Fairy-type attacks.
  • Trainers often use Goomy for its ability to endure special attacks and its potential to disrupt opponents with moves like Muddy Water.

Evolution:

  • Goomy evolves into Sliggoo starting at level 40.
  • It further evolves into Goodra when leveled up during rain starting at level 50 or higher.

Interesting Facts:

  • Goomy is often referred to as "the weakest Dragon-type Pokémon," due to its soft body and timid nature.
  • Despite this, it has a strong evolutionary line, culminating in the powerful Goodra.
  • Its design is inspired by soft-bodied mollusks and slugs, which reflects its need for a moist environment.
  • Goomy's ability to heal in the rain is reminiscent of mythical dragons' connection to water and weather.

Flavor Text Entries

  • X: The weakest Dragon-type Pokémon, it lives in damp, shady places, so its body doesn’t dry out.
  • Y: It’s covered in a slimy membrane that makes any punches or kicks slide off it harmlessly.
  • Omega-Ruby: The weakest Dragon-type Pokémon, it lives in damp, shady places, so its body doesn’t dry out.
  • Alpha-Sapphire: It’s covered in a slimy membrane that makes any punches or kicks slide off it harmlessly.
  • Sun: The weakest of all Dragon-type Pokémon, it’s unable to breathe if its skin dries out, so it sticks to shady places.
  • Moon: Its source of protection is its slimy, germ-laden mucous membrane. Anyone who touches it needs some thorough hand-washing.
  • Ultra-Sun: It uses its horns to check out its surroundings. They’re very sensitive, so if you grab them, it will feel a strong shock and be unable to move.
  • Ultra-Moon: Its body is mostly water. If it dries out, it will die, so it’s always sitting with perfect stillness in the shade.
  • Sword: Because most of its body is water, it will dry up if the weather becomes too arid. It’s considered the weakest dragon Pokémon.
  • Shield: Their horns are powerful sensors. As soon as Goomy pick up any sign of enemies, they go into hiding. This is how they’ve survived.
  • Legends-Arceus: Goomy hides away in the shade of trees, where it's nice and humid. If the slime coating its body dries out, the Pokémon instantly becomes lethargic.
