Pokédex Description

Generation 1
Red, Blue

Drifts in shallow seas. Anglers who hook them by accident are often punished by its stinging acid.

Yellow

It can sometimes be found all dry and shriveled up on a beach. Toss it back into the sea to revive it.

Generation 2
Gold

When the tide goes out, dehydrated TENTACOOL remains can be found washed up on the shore.

Silver

It drifts aimlessly in waves. Very difficult to see in water, it may not be noticed until it stings.

Crystal

As it floats along on the waves, it uses its toxic feelers to stab anything it touches.

Generation 3
Ruby

TENTACOOL’s body is largely composed of water. If it is removed from the sea, it dries up like parchment. If this POKéMON happens to become dehydrated, put it back into the sea.

Sapphire

TENTACOOL absorbs sunlight and refracts it using water inside its body to convert it into beam energy. This POKéMON shoots beams from its crystal-like eyes.

Emerald

Its body is almost entirely composed of water. It ensnares its foe with its two long tentacles, then stabs with the poison stingers at their tips.

FireRed

Its eyes are as transparent as crystals. From them, it shoots mysterious beams of light.

LeafGreen

Drifts in shallow seas. Anglers who hook them by accident are often punished by their stingers.

Generation 4
Diamond

Its body is virtually composed of water. It shoots strange beams from its crystal-like eyes.

Pearl

It drifts in sea currents. Countless fishermen are hurt by its poison stingers.

Platinum

Because its body is almost entirely composed of water, it shrivels up if it is washed ashore.

HeartGold

When the tide goes out, dehydrated TENTACOOL remains can be found washed up on the shore.

SoulSilver

It drifts aimlessly in waves. Very difficult to see in water, it may not be noticed until it stings.

Generation 5
Black, White, Black 2, White 2

Because its body is almost entirely composed of water, it shrivels up if it is washed ashore.

Generation 6
X

Its body is virtually composed of water. It shoots strange beams from its crystal-like eyes.

Y

Drifts in shallow seas. Anglers who hook them by accident are often punished by their stingers.

Omega Ruby

Tentacool’s body is largely composed of water. If it is removed from the sea, it dries up like parchment. If this Pokémon happens to become dehydrated, put it back into the sea.

Alpha Sapphire

Tentacool absorbs sunlight and refracts it using water inside its body to convert it into beam energy. This Pokémon shoots beams from the small round organ above its eyes.

Generation 7
Sun

They can be found lying dehydrated on beaches, but they are often still alive. When soaked in water, they will revive.

Moon

It drifts in shallow seas, such as the areas near beaches. If you get bitten or stabbed by its toxic tentacles, rush to the hospital.

Ultra Sun

It drifts through the sea searching for prey. Its poisonous tentacles break off sometimes, but after a while, they grow back.

Ultra Moon

Its body is 99% water. The remaining 1% contains the organ that makes its poison.
