Flavor

Flavor Text

: It crawls onto the land in search of food. Its water bubble allows it to breathe and protects its soft head.
: When it comes across enemies or potential prey, this Pokémon smashes its water-bubble-covered head into them.
: When two Dewpider meet, they display their water bubbles to each other. Then the one with the smaller bubble gets out of the other’s way.
: It can only breathe oxygen that has dissolved in water, so it wears a water bubble on its head when it walks around on land.
