Form description

Forms only affect appearance. A form is determined before a wild encounter based on whether the battle is in western or eastern Sinnoh and cannot be changed.

Eats beach sand for nourishment. Should one Gastrodon encounter another of a different color, a fierce battle will inevitably ensue.
