Flavor Info

Pokédex Entries

Sailby lives in the shallows of rivers and lakes, soaking up the sun while waiting for its next meal. It can stun fish with a surprisingly hefty slap from its tail.

Sailby's main defense from larger Pokémon is the fin on its back. It tries to stand on its hind legs to look even bigger, but it's too front-heavy to stay upright for long.
