Summary

Sliggoo is a Dragon-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VI.

Type: Dragon

Abilities:

  • Sap Sipper: Boosts the Attack stat when hit by a Grass-type move.
  • Hydration: Heals status conditions if it is raining.
  • Gooey (Hidden Ability): Lowers the opponent’s Speed when they make contact with Sliggoo.

Physical Characteristics:

  • Sliggoo is a soft-bodied, mollusk-like Pokémon covered in a slimy, gooey substance.
  • It is mostly light purple with a green underbelly and two antennae on its head.
  • It has large, green eyes and a body that tapers off into a tail.
  • The slime it produces is said to be beneficial for its skin and helps in reducing friction as it moves.

Behavior and Habitat:

  • Sliggoo typically inhabits wetlands and marshes where it can keep its skin moist.
  • It is known to be a gentle Pokémon that relies on its slimy body for protection.
  • Without eyesight, Sliggoo uses its antennae to detect its surroundings and locate food.
  • It consumes minerals and nutrients from its environment to sustain its gelatinous body.

In Battle:

  • Sliggoo is known for its resilience and defensive capabilities rather than offensive power.
  • Notable moves include Dragon Pulse, Rain Dance, and Protect.
  • It performs well in battles where it can utilize its ability to heal status conditions with rain.
  • Sliggoo is strong against Water, Electric, and Grass types but weak against Ice, Dragon, and Fairy types.

Evolution:

  • Evolves from Goomy starting at level 40.
  • Evolves into Goodra when leveled up during rain starting at level 50.

Interesting Facts:

  • Sliggoo’s slime is said to melt away anything that touches it, which is why it prefers solitude.
  • Its antennae are sensitive and help it discern the presence of others nearby.
  • Despite its seemingly vulnerable appearance, Sliggoo's gooey body provides substantial protection against physical attacks.
  • The evolution into Goodra under specific weather conditions reflects its adaptability and connection to its natural habitat.

Flavor Text Entries

  • X: It drives away opponents by excreting a sticky liquid that can dissolve anything. Its eyes devolved, so it can’t see anything.
  • Y: Its four horns are a high-performance radar system. It uses them to sense sounds and smells, rather than using ears or a nose.
  • Omega-Ruby: It drives away opponents by excreting a sticky liquid that can dissolve anything. Its eyes devolved, so it can’t see anything.
  • Alpha-Sapphire: Its four horns are a high-performance radar system. It uses them to sense sounds and smells, rather than using ears or a nose.
  • Sun: It has trouble drawing a line between friends and food. It will calmly try to melt and eat even those it gets along well with.
  • Moon: This Pokémon’s mucous can dissolve anything. Toothless, it sprays mucous on its prey. Once they’re nicely dissolved, it slurps them up.
  • Ultra-Sun: It crawls along sluggishly. The swirly protrusion on its back is filled with its brain and other organs.
  • Ultra-Moon: Its entire body is covered with gooey mucus that can dissolve anything. Be sure to put gloves on if you’re going to touch it.
  • Sword: Although this Pokémon isn’t very strong, its body is coated in a caustic slime that can melt through anything, so predators steer clear of it.
  • Shield: The lump on its back contains its tiny brain. It thinks only of food and escaping its enemies.
  • Legends-Arceus: A creature given to melancholy. I suspect its metallic shell developed as a result of the mucus on its skin reacting with the iron in Hisui's water.
