: Its fangs rip through sheet iron. It swims at 75 mph and is known as “The Bully of the Sea.”
: It can swim at speeds of 75 mph by jetting seawater through its body. It is the bandit of the sea.
: Nicknamed “the bully of the sea,” Sharpedo is widely feared. Its cruel fangs grow back immediately if they snap off. Just one of these Pokémon can thoroughly tear apart a supertanker.
: Sharpedo can swim at speeds of up to 75 mph by jetting seawater out of its backside. This Pokémon’s drawback is its inability to swim long distances.

: It pursues its prey at speeds of 75 mph and finishes them off with fangs that can crush iron. It is known as the bully of the sea.
: It has a sad history. In the past, its dorsal fin was a treasured foodstuff, so this Pokémon became a victim of overfishing.
: People believe that carrying one of its discarded fangs will prevent mishaps at sea, so the fangs are made into accessories.
: It drinks in seawater and jets it from its rear to propel itself. It’s very sensitive to the scent of blood.
