物語The Story
What the Pokédex says
- Alpha Sapphire
If a traveler is going through a desert in the thick of night, Cacturne will follow in a ragtag group. The Pokémon are biding their time, waiting for the traveler to tire and become incapable of moving.
- Omega Ruby
During the daytime, Cacturne remains unmoving so that it does not lose any moisture to the harsh desert sun. This Pokémon becomes active at night when the temperature drops.
- Y
Packs of them follow travelers through the desert until the travelers can no longer move.
- X
It becomes active at night, seeking prey that is exhausted from the day’s desert heat.
2 more entries from older games
- LeafGreen
It lives in deserts. It becomes active at night when it hunts for prey exhausted from the desert’s heat.
- Emerald
After spending thousands of years in harsh deserts, its blood transformed into the same substances as sand. It is nocturnal, so it hunts at night.
