Today, we are covering a Pokémon introduced in the third generation. Flygon whips up a sandstorm by flapping its wings. The wings create a series of notes that sound like singing. Because the "singing" is the only thing that can be heard in a sandstorm, this Pokémon is said to be the desert spirit. Flygon is nicknamed the elemental spirit of the desert. Because its flapping wings whip up a cloud of sand, this Pokémon is always enveloped in a sandstorm while flying. So, here it is, the ninety-sixth entry, Flygon.

Today, we are covering a Pokémon introduced in the first generation. It raises its offspring in its belly pouch. It lets the baby out to play only when it feels safe. If it is safe, the young gets out of the belly pouch to play. The adult keeps a close eye on the youngster. If you come across a young Kangaskhan playing by itself, you must never disturb it or attempt to catch it. The baby Pokémon's parent is sure to be in the area, and it will become violently enraged at you. So here it is, the ninety-fourth entry, Kangaskhan & Mega Kangaskhan.
