Overview |
Salandit dwell in dry, arid areas with plenty of crags to scurry in and out of. They often make their homes near the sites of active volcanoes. These Pokémon are not very strong, so they rely on stealth and deception to outwit foes. Salandit can combust the bodily fluids produced by their venom sacs to create flames and release them from the bases of their tails. This ignition also produces toxic gases as a byproduct, which Salandit can also emit from the same place. The fumes have an oddly sweet aroma; those inhaling it often do not even realize that they are breathing poison until they feel lightheaded and dizzy. Given enough time, even the strongest and most resilient Pokémon will begin to feel its effects. Salandit prefer to sneak up on prey from behind and immobilize them with their fumes before the victims even notice. Humorously, Salandit have great trouble hunting Spinda, as their dizzying gases have little effect on these tipsy Pokémon. Female Salandit also have the ability to release pheromones that can influence males, both of other Pokémon as well as of humans. The longer a being inhales a Salandit’s pheromones, the further it falls under its control. When endangered, female Salandit may call upon the males of the area to come to its aid, amplifying the amount of poisonous gases released. Male Salandit will deliver most of their gathered food to females, often leaving them quite malnourished.
