It drifts in the ocean, blending in with floating seaweed. When other Pokémon come to feast on the seaweed, Skrelp feasts on them instead.
Sword

Skrelp looks like a piece of rotten seaweed, so it can blend in with seaweed drifting on the ocean and avoid being detected by enemies.
Shield

It vanishes into seaweed and remains perfectly still to avoid attacks from large Pokémon. Rotten seaweed is its main food source.
Ultra Sun

It’s not good at swimming, so it clings to the seaweed. In the Alola region, it’s often found near Dhelmise.
Ultra Moon

Camouflaged as rotten kelp, they spray liquid poison on prey that approaches unawares and then finish it off.
Omega Ruby · X
