SABLEYE digs the ground with sharpened claws to find rocks that it eats. Substances in the eaten rocks crystallize and rise up to the POKéMON’s body surface.

Abilities:

Keen Eye

Prevents accuracy from being lowered.

Stall

Makes the Pokémon move last within its move's priority bracket.

Prankster (hidden)

Raises non-damaging moves' priority by one stage.
