Pokedex Entries22 entries

Generation VII

Ultra Sun

The ink it spits when escaping is special. It contains a substance that dulls the sense of smell, so Pokémon with keen noses get lost.

Ultra Moon

It usually sleeps in caves. The pitch-black ink that Octillery spits is also used for cooking.

Generation VIII

Sword

It has a tendency to want to be in holes. It prefers rock crags or pots and sprays ink from them before attacking.

Shield

It traps enemies with its suction-cupped tentacles, then smashes them with its rock-hard head.

Legends: Arceus

While Octillery still shoots water from its mouth, the drastic anatomical difference between it and Remoraid meant that for a long time, no one believed the former evolved from the latter.
