Flavor Info

Pokédex Entries

The Aculago with the largest, most luxuriant collar and train of dirt is the leader of its warren, so these Pokémon collect as much debris as they possibly can. They carefully groom their dirt and often decorate it with shiny objects.


An Aculago's cloak is made of many deceptively thick layers of dirt that serve as an excellent buffer against enemy attacks. The weight of the dirt can become cumbersome, however, impeding its movement.
