Flavor Text
Its shell is as hard as sheet rock, and it is also very strong. Its thrashing can topple a mountain.
Even sealed in its shell, it can move freely. Hard and fast, it has outstanding destructive power.
It will not stay still, even while it's a pupa. It already has arms and legs under its solid shell.
Pupitar creates a gas inside its body that it compresses and forcefully ejects to propel itself like a jet. The body is very durable - it avoids damage even if it hits solid steel.
A Pupitar creates a gas inside its body that it ejects under compression to propel itself like a jet. Its body can withstand a collision with solid steel.
