New Pokemon

Crabrawler – Fighting

  • Ability – Hyper Cutter or Iron Fist

This is a Boxing crab Pokemon that loves to fight. It is pure Fighting, which is surprising since it is a crab.

It has powerful pincers it uses to punch, and can often be seen around trees looking for Berries.

Sandyghast – Ghost/Ground

  • Ability – Water Compaction 

This Ghost and Ground type comes from the grudges of fallen Pokemon that soak into the sand after battle. They use their power to manipulate children into making them bigger by adding more sand.

The new ability, Water Compaction, raises its Defense by 2 stages when hit by a Water type move.

Palossand – Ghost/Ground

  • Ability – Water Compaction

This is the evolved form of Sandyghast. It manipulates adults into building a sand castle to increase its Defense. It can regenerate lost sand, unlike Sandyghast.

It also like to swallow up small Pokemon, using its life force as a base for new Sandyghast.

Stufful – Normal/Fighting

  • Ability – Fluffy/Klutz

This little bear Pokemon looks innocent, but is very strong. It evolves into a previously revealed Pokemon, Bewear. 

It hates to be touched and will flail around when this happens.
