Pokédex entries
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 | Its arms are made of plants that bind themselves to things. They grow back right away if cut. |
Black 2 White 2 | Even if one of its arms is eaten, it’s fine. The Pokémon regenerates quickly and will go right back to normal. |
X Omega Ruby | It ensnares prey by extending arms made of vines. Losing arms to predators does not trouble it. |
Y Alpha Sapphire | Its vines grow so profusely that, in the warm season, you can’t even see its eyes. |
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. |
