Tentacool (Japanese: メノクラゲ Menokurage) is a dual-type Water/Poison Pokémon.
It evolves into Tentacruel starting at level 30.
Biology
Physiology
Tentacool resembles a box jellyfish. It has a light blue, clear body with two large, transparent, crystal-like red spots on each side of its body, and one small one in the middle. It has two tentacles laced with stinging cells. The tentacles extend from beneath its round, blue lower body, which has a cape-like formation in the back.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Tentacool absorbs sunlight and refracts it using water inside its body to convert it into beam energy, as seen in the episode Tentacool and Tentacruel. It can also ooze poison if threatened.
Behavior
This Pokémon shoots beams from its crystal-like eyes, and are often found floating in shallow waters.
Habitat
Tentacool can be found throughout the ocean, usually congregating in places where warm currents and cold currents come together, and where minerals are plentiful. They are extremely common in Kanto, Johto, Hoenn and Sinnoh.
