A Wiggout's pincers look scary, but these Pokémon are so timid that it rarely occurs to them to use the pincers for self-defense. They usually just run away instead.
Scientists estimate that a Wiggout's pincers have an astonishing amount of pinching power. The true extent of this power remains largely untested due to the difficulty in convincing a Wiggout to pinch rather than hide.
