Poliwhril's Evolutionary line shown in Outrageous Fortunes When captured by an enemy, it either slithers to escape or use its swirl to put the enemy to sleep. Poliwhirl's sweat is filled with slimy mucus. Its swirl is used to make children fall asleep. While it will leave the water to capture bug Pokémon, it will return and consume them underwater in safety. The swirl on its belly undulates slowly and staring at it induces drowsiness.Įven though Poliwhirl is capable of moving on land, it prefers to stay in freshwater ponds and lakes where it has fewer natural enemies. All of its skin feels this way except where its swirl is, which is instead very smooth. This keeps it covered in an oily fluid that allows it to slip away from enemies. When out of water, it sweats to keep its skin moist and healthy. It appears to have white gloves on its hands and rounded, digit-less feet. A black and white swirl covers its belly, which is actually its organs showing through its thin skin. It has bulbous eyes that protrude from the top of its head.
