Platinum Diamond Pearl Heartgold Soulsilver

A toxic fluid seeps from its body. The fluid instantly kills plants and trees on contact.

They love to gather in smelly areas where sludge accumulates, making the stench around them worse.

Its body is made of a powerful poison. Touching it accidentally will cause a fever that requires bed rest.
