Once the people of Hisui discovered that its red nose always points north, they grew to rely on it greatly when traveling afar. The nose seems to work in a similar way to ancient compasses.
Legends Arceus
It hunts without twitching a muscle by pulling in its prey with powerful magnetism. But sometimes it pulls natural enemies in close.
Ultra Moon
It moves less than an inch a year, but when it’s in a jam, it will spin and drill down into the ground in a split second.
Ultra Sun
It uses powerful magnetism to drag its prey toward it. It’s also been known to pull in metal, which it collects and uses to protect itself.
Moon
The magnet in Nosepass’s nose provides an unerring compass, making it an excellent partner for Trainers going on a journey.
Sun
