Salaslam is a dual-type Water/Poison Pokémon.

It evolves from Salanip starting at level 36. It is the final form of Salatad. It can Mega Evolve into Mega Salaslam using the Salaslamite.

Biology

Special abilities

Salaslam have much more poison in their bodies than their pre-evolutions, which allow them to use much more powerful poison attacks. Their aquatic nature allows them to use many strong water attacks while also allowing them to dive under water for a long amount of time.

Behavior

Salaslam can be very aggressive Pokémon, but are normally harmless to things that stroll past, unless they may hold a threat. They live on land, like Salanip, but do occasionally go underwater to find food and to care for their young.

Habitat

Salaslam live in wetland and marshy areas, where there is enough water and land for them to live.
