Pokémon is, at its core, very kid friendly. However, when you dive a little deeper into the lore and actually think about some things in the universe, it's safe to say there are some unsettling elements. Certain Pokédex entries are perhaps the most disturbing of the lot, as the cuteness dissipates with the behaviour and history of some Pokémon.
We want you to share your favourite creepy or disturbing Pokédex entry! Make sure to explain why it's your favourite, copy the entry from the relevant Bulbapedia page for your chosen Pokémon (and link to the Bulbapedia page!), and extra bonus points if you can grab an in-game screenshot of your chosen entry! Ten of the creepiest submissions can win $2 apiece.
Task: Tell us what your favourite unsettling Pokédex entry is and why
Format: Written (with a screenshot if you can take one)
