The poison that gushes from its aft end is accompanied by an utterly evil-smelling odor with such potency that one whiff can induce memory loss.
Legends: Arceus
If it lifts its tail and points its rear at you, beware. It’s about to spray you with a fluid stinky enough to make you faint.
Shield
From its rear, it sprays a foul-smelling liquid at opponents. It aims for their faces, and it can hit them from over 16 feet away.
Sword
The foul fluid from its rear is so revolting that it can make people feel queasy up to a mile and a quarter away.
HeartGold · SoulSilver
It sprays a foul fluid from its rear. Its stench spreads over a mile radius, driving Pokémon away.
Platinum · Black · White · Black 2 · White 2 · X · Omega Ruby
It sprays a nose-curling, stinky fluid from its rear to repel attackers.
