DhelmiseTemporal Forces #19 Pokémon Card

Dhelmise is a unique Grass/Ghost-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VII, hailing from the Alola region. Known as the Sea Creeper Pokémon, Dhelmise is not a biological creature in the traditional sense but rather an amalgamation of seaweed and the anchor and steering wheel of a sunken ship, brought to life by a vengeful spirit. Its natural habitat is the deep ocean, where it lurks near shipwrecks, often mistaken for debris. Dhelmise's diet is unconventional, as it feeds on the life force of other Pokémon or ships it encounters, using its powerful anchor-like arm to ensnare prey. Its behavior is generally territorial and aggressive, protecting its haunted domain. In the games, Dhelmise is notable for its high Attack stat and the unique ability Steelworker, which boosts its Steel-type moves. While it does not have an evolutionary line, its distinctive origin and appearance make it a memorable addition to the Pokémon world. Its type combination gives it interesting matchups, being weak to Fire, Flying, Ghost, and Dark, but resistant to Water, Grass, Electric, Normal, Fighting, and Poison, and immune to Normal and Fighting moves in the main series games. Dhelmise's design reflects the maritime culture and legends often associated with island regions like Alola, embodying the mysteries of the deep sea.
