Palossand
I’ve always thought my finding Palossand creepy was on me, rather than the Pokémon. Sandygast, from which it evolves, seems more overtly creepy, it’s face contorted into a scream of horror, presumably at the spade jabbed into its head. But Palossand looks far more like it’s come to terms with its haunted sandcastle existence. Perhaps, too comfortable though.
Scarlet, which let’s remember is ostensibly a kids’ game, says this of the sand beast:
The terrifying Palossand drags smaller Pokémon into its sandy body. Once its victims are trapped, it drains them of their vitality whenever it pleases.
Good lord. Then just in case that weren’t enough, Violet adds:
From the hollows in its arms, it fires the bones of its victims, which are all dried up after being drained of their vitality.
Goodnight, kids!
