We're on to bigger and better vines this episode as we discuss Tangela's evolved form, Tangrowth! More vines, more growing and less mystery! We also reminisce about Tang and take a quick dip into the Anime Corner to be reminded that Team Rocket is indeed still the best part of that show. Follow along with the entries below:
Diamond & Pearl: It ensnares prey by extending arms made of vines. Losing arms to predators does not trouble it.
Platinum: Its arms are made of plants that bind themselves to things. They grow back right away if cut.
HeartGold: When it remains still, it appears to be a large shrub. Unsuspecting prey that wander near get ensnared by its vines.
SoulSilver: Its vines grow so profusely that, in the warm season, you can’t even see its eyes.
Black & White 2: Even if one of its arms is eaten, it’s fine. The Pokémon regenerates quickly and will go right back to normal.
Sword: Tangrowth has two arms that it can extend as it pleases. Recent research has shown that these arms are, in fact, bundles of vines.
Shield: Vine growth is accelerated for Tangrowth living in warm climates. If the vines grow long, Tangrowth shortens them by tearing parts of them off.
Legends: Arceus: Draped with long vines, it resembles a shrub in appearance. It swings bundles of vines as though they were arms, wrapping them around prey to ensnare them.
Photodex: Tangrowth uses its vine arms to nimbly pluck fruit that’s just out of reach. It can also extend its arms even farther to carry itself across long distances.
BTB: It's got neverending strechy arm vine snacks. A formidable predator and prey Pokemon. No one's worried about what's in there anymore.
