DhelmiseSun Moon Promos #SM53 Pokémon Card

Dhelmise, the Sea Creeper Pokémon, is a unique Ghost/Grass type introduced in Generation VII. It is known for its distinctive appearance, resembling a ship's anchor entangled with green seaweed. This Pokémon does not have any prior or subsequent evolutionary forms, standing alone as a singular entity. According to Pokédex entries, Dhelmise is formed from the grudges of seaweed that entangled a ship, giving it a spectral yet tangible form. It hunts by swinging its massive anchor, and its body is said to be the green seaweed that clings to it, making the anchor its primary weapon. Dhelmise is typically found in the deep seas, often near sunken ships or areas with strong currents where it can ambush prey. Its diet consists of organisms it ensnares with its seaweed body and then crushes with its anchor. In the games, Dhelmise is notable for its high Attack stat and its unique ability, Steelworker, which boosts the power of its Steel-type moves, despite Dhelmise itself not being a Steel-type Pokémon. Its role in the anime often portrays it as a formidable guardian of underwater ruins or a territorial sea creature, emphasizing its powerful anchor attacks. Its unusual type combination and lore make it a memorable Pokémon with a distinct presence in the world of Alola.
