Further description on Salandit is shown on the Pokemon Company website:
“Salandit emits toxic gas, together with flames, from the base of its tail. This poisonous gas has a sweet smell, and anyone who breathes it in will become dizzy. Salandit is not a very powerful Pokémon, but its cunning nature allows it to battle fiercely by throwing its opponents off balance.
“Salandit females not only release toxic gases, they can also emit pheromones that attract males of all species, including Pokémon and humans. Inhaling those pheromones may cause opponents to be controlled by Salandit’s will.”
You can check out Salandit in all of his mischievous glory below. It, along with the rest of the recently revealed Pokemon will be available to capture and battling from October 18th on Nintendo 3DS.
