Overview |
When first born, Dwebble have no shells on their thin and fragile bodies. Their first instinct is to scramble about in search of adequate rocks, which they meticulously inspect for imperfections and weaknesses. When Dwebble find ideal stones, they will secrete a highly corrosive acid from their mouths onto the rocks, dissolving holes large enough for their bodies to fit into; they often make enemies of Geodude, Roggenrola, and Rolycoly by trying to dissolve them by mistake. Dwebble rely on their rocky shells for protection from predators, tucking themselves into them when threatened. Their hooklike tails latch onto crags within their rocks, making it difficult to dislodge their shells without great force. If their rocks break, Dwebble will become very agitated and not sleep or eat until they find new shells. In captivity, they have been known to use materials other than stone in order to construct their shells, including brick, asphalt, and concrete. However, most Dwebble prefer using rocks regardless of what other substances are closer or more abundant, perhaps because of the differing weights and densities of the materials. In deserts, shell-less Dwebble often make their homes in the pores of Hippowdon, cleaning out stuck rocks while searching for new abodes.
