It evolves from Nosepass when leveled up in a special magnetic field, typically found in specific locations like Mount Coronet in the Sinnoh region or Chargestone Cave in Unova. Probopass is known for its large, red, magnetic nose and three smaller "Mini Noses" that orbit its body, which it can control independently. These Mini Noses are said to assist Probopass in hunting by emitting powerful magnetic fields to trap prey. Probopass is depicted as a territorial Pokémon, often found in caves or mountainous areas, where it acts as a natural compass, always pointing north. Its unique magnetic abilities are central to its design and lore, making it a distinctive figure in the Pokémon world. In the games, Probopass is often used for its high defensive stats and its ability to set up entry hazards. In the anime, it has appeared in various episodes, showcasing its magnetic powers in battles and other situations. Its design, inspired by moai statues and compasses, gives it a memorable and somewhat imposing appearance.
