Description

In this episode we're covering Sam Rami's hit 2002 film Spider-Man! I mean Cottonee! The Cotton Puff Pokemon! Don't worry we're totally not tired and distracted at all. Follow along with the entries below:

Black: When attacked, it escapes by shooting cotton from its body. The cotton serves as a decoy to distract the attacker.

White: They go wherever the wind takes them. On rainy days, their bodies are heavier, so they take shelter beneath big trees.

Black & White 2: Perhaps because they feel more at ease in a group, they stick to others they find. They end up looking like a cloud.

Sun: When it finds others of its kind, they all stick together. When enough of them have collected, the mass resembles a cumulonimbus cloud.

Moon: Pillows and beds stuffed with cotton exhaled by Cottonee are soft and puffy, light and airy— altogether top quality.

Ultra Sun: To protect itself, it shoots cotton from its body. When it gets wet in the rain, its cotton grows moist and heavy, and it can’t move as well.

Ultra Moon: When attacked, it expels cotton from its body to create a diversion. The cotton it loses grows back in quickly.

Sword: It shoots cotton from its body to protect itself. If it gets caught up in hurricane-strength winds, it can get sent to the other side of the Earth.

Shield: Weaving together the cotton of both Cottonee and Eldegoss produces exquisite cloth that’s highly prized by many luxury brands.

BTB: A world-traveling little puffball that generates cotton in perhaps a variety of fashions. That cotton is the real good stuff.
