[Feature] Who’s that Pokémon? It’s Bellibolt!

This November, Paldea awaits when Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet’s Gen 9 adventure gets underway. Whilst we wait, one more Pokémon has been revealed, and it’s time for another “Who’s That Pokémon?.” In this instalment, we’re covering Bellibolt:

Pokémon: Bellibolt

Classification: EleFrog Pokémon

Type: Electric

Height: 1.2 m

Weight: 113.0 kg

Ability: Electromorphis / Static

 

Bellibolt expands and contracts its elastic body to generate electricity in an organ that looks like a belly button. The huge amount of electricity generated this way is then discharged from the two bumps on either side of its head that resemble eyeballs.  Its actual eyes are adorably small and round, so when it tries to be intimidating, it puts the eyelike bumps to good use.

It is difficult to train Bellibolt to initiate a battle without it being attacked first.​  After the sun sets, you can hear strange noises coming from Bellibolt’s habitat. This noise is not Bellibolt’s cries, but a sound emitting from their stomachs–it is known that this sound signals that they are hungry.​

New Ability: Electromorphosis – Bellibolt’s Ability, Electromorphosis, is a new Ability appearing for the first time in these titles. Bellibolt becomes charged when hit by an attack, boosting the power of the next Electric-type move it uses.
