Flavor Info

Pokédex Entries

Lygosi leave their lairs at night in search of prey to sink their fangs into. Their intent is to feed on blood, but the Pokémon they bite are often left with an urge to bite others as well.


Lygosi have a powerful sense of smell and a strong intuition, and even on the darkest nights they can seek out potential prey with no trouble. They often howl at the moon before a hunt, but they sneak up and attack unwary prey in dead silence.

Name Origin

lycanthrope + Bela Lugosi, the actor who portrayed Count Dracula
