Toedscool's spread isn't flashy. Sp. Def leads, Defense trails, 1 stats clear the bar. Common in the wild and worth 1 Sp. Def EV, on a 1.06M XP medium-slow curve.
Toedscool lives in muggy forests. The flaps that fall from its body are chewy and very delicious.
Though it looks like Tentacool, Toedscool is a completely different species. Its legs may be thin, but it can run at a speed of 30 mph.
Toedscool is weak to Ice, Fire, Flying, and Bug. Watch out for Ice attacks, those deal 4x damage. On the flip side, it's immune to Electric-type moves entirely. Toedscool's special bulk (base 100 Sp.Def) helps absorb special-type weaknesses, though physical moves exploit the lower Defense.
| Damage | Types |
|---|---|
| 4x (Critical) | Ice |
| 2x (Weak) | Fire, Flying, Bug |
| 0.5x (Resist) | Ground, Rock |
| 0x (Immune) | Electric |
