Pokédex entries

Sword Apparently the itch of its teething impels it to snap its jaws at anything in front of it.
Shield It starts off battles by attacking with its rock-hard horn, but as soon as the opponent flinches, this Pokémon bites down and never lets go.
Scarlet Its large front tooth is still growing in. When the tooth itches, this Pokémon will bite another Chewtle’s horn, and the two Pokémon will tussle.
Violet A popular game among children is to lift up sticks that Chewtle have bitten onto to see whose Chewtle can hang on the longest.
