Pokédex Description


- Barboach's sensitive whiskers serve as a superb radar system. This Pokemon hides in mud, leaving only its two whiskers exposed while it waits for prey to come along.

- Barboach's body is covered with a slimy film. If a foe grabs it, this Pokemon just slips out of the enemy's grip. This Pokemon grows weak if the slimy coating dries up.

- Its body is covered with a slimy film. The film acts as a barrier to prevent germs in muddy water from entering the Barboach's body.


- It probes muddy riverbeds with its two long whiskers. A slimy film protects its body.


- It coats its entire body with a slimy fluid so it can squirm and slip away if grabbed.

- Its whiskers make a superb radar. They are used to locate prey, even in the murkiest of water.

- Its slimy body is hard to grasp. In one region, it is said to have been born from hardened mud.


- BARBOACH uses its whiskers to taste things just as a person uses his or her tongue to taste things.
