Pokémon Abilities
Sticky-hold:	This Pokémon's hold item cannot be removed by other Pokémon. Damaging moves that would remove this Pokémon's item can still inflict damage against this Pokémon, e.g. knock off or pluck. This Pokémon can still use moves that involve the loss of its own item, e.g. fling or trick. Overworld: If the lead Pokémon has this ability, the encounter rate while fishing is increased.
Storm-drain:	All other Pokémon's single-target water-type moves are redirected to this Pokémon, if it is an eligible target. Other Pokémon's Water moves raise this Pokémon's Special Attack one stage, negating any other effect on it, and cannot miss it. If the move's intended target also has this ability, the move is not redirected. When multiple Pokémon with this ability are possible targets for redirection, the move is redirected to the one with the highest Speed stat, or, in the case of a tie, to a random tied Pokémon. follow me takes precedence over this ability.
Sand-force: hidden	During a sandstorm, this Pokémon's rock-, ground-, and steel-type moves have 1.3× their base power. This Pokémon does not take sandstorm damage, regardless of type.

Pokédex Description

It has a pliable body without any bones. If any part of its body is torn off, it grows right back.

It apparently had a huge shell for protection in ancient times. It lives in shallow tidal pools.

Long ago, its entire back was shielded with a sturdy shell. There are traces of it left in its cells.

When its natural enemy attacks, it oozes purple fluid and escapes.

It has strong regenerative capabilities. Even if parts of it are bitten off by fish Pokémon, it will return to normal within a few hours.

Plankton, invisible to the naked eye, is its main food source. It comes onto the land periodically, but the reason for this is not known.

Long ago, it had a shell on its back. There’s now a vestigial plate on its back that’s hard but thin.

Their shape and color change, depending on their environment and diet. There are many of them at beaches where the waves are calm.

Its search for food sometimes leads it onto land, where it leaves behind a sticky trail of slime as it passes through.

The softness of its body helps disperse the force of impacts, so although its body is uncommonly squishy, it’s also surprisingly resilient.

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