• Its body is covered in a viscous, slimy substance that helps keep it hydrated.

Behavior and Habitat:

• Its notable moves include Dragon Breath and Rain Dance.
• It is strong against other Dragon-type Pokémon but is weak to Ice, Dragon, and Fairy-type attacks.

• It further evolves into Goodra when leveled up during rain starting at level 50 or higher.

Interesting Facts:

• Goomy is often referred to as "the weakest Dragon-type Pokémon," due to its soft body and timid nature.
• Despite this, it has a strong evolutionary line, culminating in the powerful Goodra.
• Its design is inspired by soft-bodied mollusks and slugs, which reflects its need for a moist environment.
• Goomy's ability to heal in the rain is reminiscent of mythical dragons' connection to water and weather.

• X: The weakest Dragon-type Pokémon, it lives in damp, shady places, so its body doesn’t dry out.
• Y: It’s covered in a slimy membrane that makes any punches or kicks slide off it harmlessly.
• Omega-Ruby: The weakest Dragon-type Pokémon, it lives in damp, shady places, so its body doesn’t dry out.
• Alpha-Sapphire: It’s covered in a slimy membrane that makes any punches or kicks slide off it harmlessly.
• Sun: The weakest of all Dragon-type Pokémon, it’s unable to breathe if its skin dries out, so it sticks to shady places.
• Moon: Its source of protection is its slimy, germ-laden mucous membrane. Anyone who touches it needs some thorough hand-washing.
• Ultra-Sun: It uses its horns to check out its surroundings. They’re very sensitive, so if you grab them, it will feel a strong shock and be unable to move.
• Ultra-Moon: Its body is mostly water. If it dries out, it will die, so it’s always sitting with perfect stillness in the shade.
• Sword: Because most of its body is water, it will dry up if the weather becomes too arid. It’s considered the weakest dragon Pokémon.
• Shield: Their horns are powerful sensors. As soon as Goomy pick up any sign of enemies, they go into hiding. This is how they’ve survived.
• Legends-Arceus: Goomy hides away in the shade of trees, where it's nice and humid. If the slime coating its body dries out, the Pokémon instantly becomes lethargic.
