Pokédex Entries
X Long ago, people imagined its eerie howls to be
the call of the grim reaper. Y The flames it breathes when angry contain toxins.
If they cause a burn, it will hurt forever. Omega Ruby In a Houndoom pack, the one with its horns raked sharply
toward the back serves a leadership role. These Pokémon
choose their leader by fighting among themselves. Alpha Sapphire In a Houndoom pack, the one with its horns raked sharply
toward the back serves a leadership role. These Pokémon
choose their leader by fighting among themselves. Ultra Sun They spew flames mixed with poison to finish
off their opponents. They divvy up their prey
evenly among the members of their pack. Ultra Moon Identifiable by its eerie howls, people a long
time ago thought it was the grim reaper and
feared it.
Houndoom
Mega Houndoom Ultra Sun Its red claws and the tips of its tail are melting
from high internal temperatures that are painful
to Houndoom itself. Ultra Moon Houndoom’s entire body generates heat when
it Mega Evolves. Its fearsome fiery breath turns
its opponents to ash.
