Pail
Huh, why isn't it listed that the pal may come from pail as in pail and shovel, two important tools needed in sand play. Yamitora1 (talk) 08:03, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
Name Origin
I think that the Japanese name origin is incorrect, and the name can be translated into; castle at sand. Also, the name shirodesuna can be literally translated to "It is a castle". If you take the word Shiro as in white, it could also mean "white as sand". This is japan, so they wouldn't use the word "Death". FFFTM (talk) 21:41, 5 February 2017 (UTC)
- You can't really get "white as sand" if you interpret 'shiro' as white, that's just forcing an interpretation. Translating 'de' as "at" is also just awkward at best. Japanese players also comment on the "death" for 'desu' part, so you can't say it's incredibly far-fetched. Tiddlywinks (talk) 21:46, 5 February 2017 (UTC)
Water Immunity
Because of Palossand's ability (Water Compaction), Water type moves are 0x effective against it.
