Flavor Text

: Jellicent is always hanging around fancy cruise ships and tankers, hoping to drag away its prey.
: Fishermen are terrified of Jellicent. It’s rumored to drag them into the sea and steal their lives away.

: Most of this Pokémon’s body composition is identical to sea water. It makes sunken ships its lair.
: Whenever a full moon hangs in the night sky, schools of Jellicent gather near the surface of the sea, waiting for their prey to appear.
