Listen "Beyond the Ball 156 - Weavile"
Episode Synopsis
Sneasel has evolved and grown in all sorts of ways as Weavile provides us with some delightfully detailed Pokedex entries! Beyond the Ball is eating well today! Follow along with entries below:
Diamond: They live in cold regions, forming groups of four or five that hunt prey with impressive coordination.
Pearl: It sends signals to others by carving odd patterns in frost-covered trees and ice.
Platinum: Evolution made it even more devious. It communicates by clawing signs in boulders.
HeartGold & SoulSilver: It lives in snowy regions. It carves patterns in trees with its claws as a signal to others.
Black & White 2: They communicate by clawing signs in boulders and work together to surround enemies.
Sun: They travel in groups of four or five, leaving signs for one another on trees and rocks. They bring down their prey with coordinated attacks.
Moon: They dwell in cold places. This Pokémon’s main food source in Alola is Vulpix and Sandshrew, which they carefully divide among their group.
Ultra Sun: One Weavile will trip a Sandshrew and flip it over, and then another Weavile will deal the finishing blow with its sharp claws.
Ultra Moon: Thanks to its increased intelligence, scrapping over food is a thing of the past. A scratch from its claws will give you a case of frostbite!
Sword: They attack their quarry in packs. Prey as large as Mamoswine easily fall to the teamwork of a group of Weavile.
Shield: With its claws, it leaves behind signs for its friends to find. The number of distinct signs is said to be over 500.
Legends: Arceus: This species corners prey as a pack, under the guidance of a leader. Weavile displays increased cunning, leading me to speculate that its evolution caused further brain development.
The Photodex: You probably noticed marks scratched into the tree trunks in the snowfields. Those are actually messages that Weavile leave for each other.
BTB: Weavile is wicked smaht. Its pack tactics ensure its survival in the harsh, frozen wild. Watch out, cuties!
