The Story

What the Pokédex says

  • Legends: Arceus

    While Octillery still shoots water from its mouth, the drastic anatomical difference between it and Remoraid meant that for a long time, no one believed the former evolved from the latter.

  • Shield

    It traps enemies with its suction-cupped tentacles, then smashes them with its rock-hard head.

  • Sword

    It has a tendency to want to be in holes. It prefers rock crags or pots and sprays ink from them before attacking.

  • Ultra Moon

    It usually sleeps in caves. The pitch-black ink that Octillery spits is also used for cooking.

9 more entries from older games
  • Ultra Sun

    The ink it spits when escaping is special. It contains a substance that dulls the sense of smell, so Pokémon with keen noses get lost.

  • Alpha Sapphire

    Octillery grabs onto its foe using its tentacles. This Pokémon tries to immobilize it before delivering the finishing blow. If the foe turns out to be too strong, Octillery spews ink to escape.

  • Y

    It traps foes with the suction cups on its tentacles, then smashes them with its rock-hard head.

  • White

    It loves to lurk inside holes in rocks. It sometimes sprays ink on prey by sticking out only its mouth.

  • SoulSilver

    It instinctively sneaks into rocky holes. If it gets sleepy, it steals the nest of a fellow OCTILLERY.

  • Pearl

    It obscures its foe’s vision by spitting a cloud of murky ink. It makes its nest among boulders.

  • Diamond

    It lives in the gaps of boulders and in holes on the seafloor. Its suction cups grip prey tightly.

  • Emerald

    It ensnares its foe with its suction- cupped tentacles before delivering the finishing blow. If the foe turns out to be too strong, it spews ink to escape.

  • Crystal

    Its instinct is to bury itself in holes. It often steals the nesting holes of others to sleep in them.
