Pokédex descriptions
Legends Arceus
Though large and languid, Hippopotas is difficult to detect due to its tendency to burrow into and lurk beneath the soil. When agitated or excited, it expels sand from its nostrils.
Shield
This Pokémon is active during the day and passes the cold desert nights burrowed snugly into the sand.
Sword
It moves through the sands with its mouth open, swallowing sand along with its prey. It gets rid of the sand by spouting it from its nose.
