The legs of this Pokemon have two different color combinations on the top and bottom, namely light blue and dark blue with lots of purplish thorns.

This Pokemon uses its legs to walk on the ocean floor to hunt Corsola. Toxapex can be used to make a shelter shaped like a dome that can protect from high tides and cold areas.

This Pokemon can feel the tides by using its spikes, this allows it to observe its surroundings.

He can also use his thorns as a weapon by shooting them at enemies with a strong poison content.

This poison manages to provide pain for 3 days, even for large Pokemon like Wailord. The poison would even have a follow-up effect even after the recovery period.

If an enemy manages to get past the thorns of Toxapex, he will attack using his claws. Bruxish is the natural enemy of this Pokemon. They often fight in warm ocean currents.

Toxapex is known as the only Pokemon that can learn the Baneful Bunker move. Mareanie who is the pre-evolution of this Pokemon is also the only one who has Merciless as her skill.
