===Natural abilities===
 
Hippopotas has the ability [[Sand Stream]] and the hidden ability [[Sand Force]]. Sand Stream allows Hippopotas to summon a [[sandstorm]] throughout an entire battle. Sand Force increases the Power of {{Type|Rock}}, {{Type|Steel}}, and {{Type|Ground}}-type moves by 30%. If not one of those types, they gain immunity to sandstorms.

Revision as of 16:18, 19 July 2020

Hippopotas (Japanese: ヒポポタス Hipopotasu) is a Ground-type Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.

Biology

Physiology

Hippopotas appears to be a brown-yellow hippo with camouflage patterns who has a small body with big nostrils where it can presumably shoot sand out of. It also has small nodules above its eyes along with a big mouth having large jaws.

Gender differences

Male and female Hippopotas have their brown and tan spots switched.

Natural abilities

Hippopotas has the ability Sand Stream and the hidden ability Sand Force. Sand Stream allows Hippopotas to summon a sandstorm throughout an entire battle. Sand Force increases the Power of Rock, Steel, and Ground-type moves by 30%. If not one of those types, they gain immunity to sandstorms.

Evolution

Hippopotas evolves into Hippowdon once it reaches level 34.
