Flavor

Flavor Text

: The weakest of all Dragon-type Pokémon, it’s unable to breathe if its skin dries out, so it sticks to shady places.
: Its source of protection is its slimy, germ-laden mucous membrane. Anyone who touches it needs some thorough hand-washing.
: It uses its horns to check out its surroundings. They’re very sensitive, so if you grab them, it will feel a strong shock and be unable to move.
: Its body is mostly water. If it dries out, it will die, so it’s always sitting with perfect stillness in the shade.

: Because most of its body is water, it will dry up if the weather becomes too arid. It’s considered the weakest dragon Pokémon.
: Their horns are powerful sensors. As soon as Goomy pick up any sign of enemies, they go into hiding. This is how they’ve survived.
