Flavor Info

Pokédex Entries

Ventorm live at the bottom of the sea. Their heavy, rock-like shells keep them in one place, but they strike at their prey with alarming speed. When threatened, they can retreat into their shells in an instant.


The water stored in a Ventorm's body is expelled, along with sediment and noxious gases, from the vents in their shells. They prefer to conserve the water when on land, however, and so black smoke can be seen issuing from the vents instead.

Additional Info

By the time Wyrmal evolve into Ventorm, the sediment they collect from the hydrothermal vents has formed into an incredibly strong shell. The soft bodies of the Ventorm become one with the rock-like shells, much like the way a turtle's shell works. They can retract their long necks back into themselves and into the shell for protection; while their rock bases prevent them from moving from the one spot in which they settle, Ventorm can strike out of and pull into their shells incredibly quickly, more than fast enough to catch most prey or avoid most attacks.

Even though they have magma in their bodies, as sea creatures Ventorm need to keep hydrated as well. As such, they swallow water all of the time (for filtering out oxygen as well as for regulating their temperature, etc.). The water that Ventorm swallow is combined with minerals and gases they take in from their prey and their environment, and is forced out of openings in their bases in big clouds of sediment, much like the black smoker vents around which they live. When on land they cannot afford to expel all of that water unless they need to do so in battle; as such, during these times thick smoke often issues from their vents instead.

Name Origin

vent + worm (also "ormr", Old Norse for "snake" or "dragon")
