Sentret Weakness

Fighting moves hit Sentret for super-effective damage. The upside? Ghost-type moves can't touch it at all. Sentret's Normal typing only leaves 1 gap to cover.

Pokedex Entry

It stands on its tail so it can see a long way. If it spots an enemy, it cries loudly to warn its kind.

A very cautious POKéMON, it raises itself up using its tail to get a better view of its surroundings.
