Flavor Info

Pokédex Entries

Catalcia like to graze on special plants with hallucinogenic properties. These plants tend to dull their senses, making them slow to react to external stimuli. They develop an immunity to the plants as they near evolution, however, and begin storing the toxins in their thorns.


Catalcia are almost always placid and unconcerned with the world around them. They are powerful Pokémon and dangerous when provoked, but goading one into attacking is markedly difficult.

Name Origin
