Research Notes - Spritzee
Fragus perfuma
Aromatisse are relatives of Noctowl, though they are in a separate family. They are specialists when it comes to the sense of smell, which is their primary method of both communication and defense. Sometimes utilized by humans for perfume, these creatures have evolved special organs for isolating odorous compounds from their food; they also have “mixing chambers” where they can combine different substances to synthesize new aromas. These Pokémon actually function as decomposers in their ecosystems, as they will consume carrion for its odor (even if they do not gain much from it nutritionally).
Diet |
These Pokémon will eat practically anything that has a strong odor regardless of nutritional value, whether it is pleasant or disgusting. This includes things like Berries, fruits, and nectar, but also garbage, insects, and carrion.

Care |
These Pokémon are not particularly difficult to raise, but trainers with sensitive noses should not try to train them. Both Spritzee and Aromatisse can smell overpowering even when outside of battle, as they will attempt to devise and test new odors in their spare time. Trainers should be sure to provide their Pokémon with plenty of differently-scented foodstuffs so their Pokémon can experiment with a wide range of odorous substances.

Caution |
These Pokémon defend themselves by overwhelming their foes’ senses of smell. They will try to create the most offensive odors they can and then release clouds of it to daze or even knock out their enemies. While this works very well against many of their natural predators, who depend on their olfactory senses, this also does mean that they can be rather easily approached in one holds his or her breath. Thick clouds of their scents can cause the eyes to water and burn, however.
