Salandit is the newest Pokémon in the upcoming Pokémon Sun and Moon
The Japan Expo is on in Paris currently and they’ve revealed a new Pokemon for the upcoming Pokemon Sun and Moon!
The reveal was from none other than Junichi Masuda himself. Meet the Poisin/Fire-type – Salandit! This lizard can poison any type of Pokemon.
Salandit emits toxic gas, together with flames, from the base of its tail. This poisonous gas has a sweet smell, and anyone who unknowingly breathes it in will become dizzy. Salandit is not a very powerful Pokémon, but its cunning nature allows it to battle fiercely by throwing its opponents off balance.
Salandit females not only release toxic gases, they can also emit pheromones that attract males of all species, including Pokémon and humans. Inhaling these pheromones may cause opponents to be controlled by Salandit’s will.
Salandit has the Corrosion Ability, a new Ability that no other Pokémon has possessed before. With the Corrosion Ability, it becomes possible to inflict the Poisoned status condition even on Steel- and Poison-type Pokémon.
