Sandslash (Japanese: サンドパン Sandopan) is a Ground-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

Biology

Physiology

Sandslash is a tall, yellow, mammalian creature with brown spikes on its back. It has two very long claws on each "hand" used for digging and battling. Sandslash can curl up to a small size just like its pre-evolved form Sandshrew, but it is of a much larger stature which enhances its defense.

Evolution

Sandslash evolves from Sandshrew at level 22.

Appearances

Anime

In an episode called Good 'Quil Hunting, a Trainer called Koji told Ash about a place that was good for catching some Cyndaquil. After Ash captured a Cyndaquil, the trainer challenged Ash to a 1-on-1 battle to see who would have the Cyndaquil. Koji used a Sandslash against Ash's Cyndaquil and he lost.

Trivia

Etymology

Sandslash appears to be based on the armadillo. Its name comes from "Sand" and "Slash" which references its habitat and sharp claws. It resembles a porcupine.
