Summary

Nacli is a Rock-type Pokémon introduced in Generation IX.

Type: Rock

Abilities:

  • Purifying Salt: Protects the Pokémon from status conditions and halves the damage from Ghost-type moves.

  • It has a rocky, salt-like body with prominent crystals protruding from its top and sides.
  • Its overall appearance is reminiscent of a salt rock or mineral deposit.

In Battle:

  • Scarlet: It was born in a layer of rock salt deep under the earth. This species was particularly treasured in the old days, as they would share precious salt.
  • Violet: The ground scrapes its body as it travels, causing it to leave salt behind. Salt is constantly being created and replenished inside Nacli’s body.
