Pokédex Entries¶

Platinum Diamond Pearl Heartgold Soulsilver

It attaches silk to its prey and sets it free. Later, it tracks the silk to the prey and its friends.

It spins string not only from its rear but also from its mouth. It’s hard to tell which end is which.

A single strand of a special string is endlessly spun out of its rear. The string leads back to its nest.
