SentretNeo Genesis #71 Pokémon Card

Sentret, known as the Scout Pokémon, is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation II with the release of the *Pokémon Gold* and *Silver* video games. It is the pre-evolution of Furret, evolving at level 15. Sentret is characterized by its small, bipedal appearance, predominantly brown fur with a cream-colored belly and face, and distinctive red-tipped ears. Its most notable behavior is its constant vigilance; Sentret often stands on its tail to get a better view of its surroundings, always on the lookout for danger. This behavior is reflected in its Pokédex entries, which frequently mention its cautious nature and its role in warning other Pokémon of approaching threats. In the games, Sentret is typically found in early routes, serving as a common encounter for new trainers. Its Normal typing gives it a balanced set of matchups, being weak only to Fighting-type moves and having a resistance to Ghost-type attacks, though it takes neutral damage from most other types. In the anime, Sentret often appears in forest and grassland settings, depicted as a social and sometimes timid creature, reinforcing its role as a scout. Its endearing design and early-game availability have made it a recognizable and somewhat iconic Pokémon from the Johto region, embodying the spirit of exploration and discovery in its native habitats.
