Tentacruel is a dual-type Water/Poison Pokémon famous for its jellyfish-like demeanor and impactful presence in the Pokémon games and media. Emerging from Tentacool at level 30, it's lauded for both its offensive and defensive adaptability.
Type: Water/Poison
Abilities:
- Clear Body: This ability insulates Tentacruel from any decreases in its stats instigated by other Pokémon's moves or abilities. Thus, Tentacruel's stats remain unaffected, making it a formidable adversary.
- Liquid Ooze: With this ability, Tentacruel punishes foes attempting to siphon its HP, causing them to suffer HP loss instead. Moves like Giga Drain and Leech Life backfire and harm the attacker rather than offering them any health replenishment.
- Hidden Ability (Rain Dish): When subjected to rain, Rain Dish lets Tentacruel replenish a minimal amount of HP each round.
Interesting Facts:
- Tentacruel boasts a predominantly bluish appearance, embodying its aquatic nature and setting it apart in the diverse Pokémon ecosystem.
