Sandshrew Pokédex Information
Sandshrew is a Ground type Pokémon that first appeared in the games Pokémon Red and Blue which released in Japan on 12th September 1999. It evolves to Sandslash.
Sandshrew is a two-legged Pokémon that bears a resemblance to a mouse and a pangolin. Its yellow head, body and limbs are marked with black lines so that it resembles a brick-type pattern. In contrast its chest, stomach and inner ears are cream with no pattern. It has two claws on each foot and three on at the end of each arm. Its two big, black eyes sit either side of its nose. It loves to bathe in the grit of dry, sandy areas. By sand bathing, the Pokémon rids itself of dirt and moisture clinging to its body.
When it appears in the Alola region it takes on a different form. Alolan Sandshrew is an Ice / Steel type Pokémon and is much heavier than its regular counterpart. Its body and limbs are pale blue and marked with lines to resemble a pattern made by interlocking blocks of ice. Its chest, stomach and jaw are cream in colour. Its ears resemble the entrance to an igloo. Life on mountains covered with deep snow has granted this Pokémon a body of ice that’s as hard as steel.
