Flavor Info

Pokédex Entries

Roastinger will not tolerate trespassers near its burrow. It grabs intruders with its pincers and jabs with its burning stinger until they're burned to a crisp.


The more fire Roastinger's claws and stinger are exposed to, the sturdier they become. It tests their strength by striking and crushing solid rocks.
