Pokédex entries
This Pokémon emerges from the water in search of prey despite the fact that it moves more slowly on land.
Shield
Carracosta completely devours its prey—bones, shells, and all. Because of this, Carracosta’s own shell grows thick and sturdy.
Sword
Carracosta eats every last bit of the prey it catches, even the shells and bones, to further strengthen its sturdy shell.
Ultra Moon
Its jaws are terrifyingly powerful. It could eat Omastar and Omanyte whole and not be bothered in the slightest by their shells.
Ultra Sun
Active both on land and in the sea, this Pokémon drags its land-based prey into the water to finish it off.
