Sandshrew - Mouse Pokémon

When it curls up in a ball, it can make any attack bounce off harmlessly. Its hide has turned tough and solid as a result of living in the desert.

Quand il se met en boule, il est capable d'attaquer en rebondissant sans se blesser. Le désert a rendu sa peau dure et résistante.

German

Sandan - Maus

Rollt es sich zu einer Kugel zusammen, prallt jeder Angriff von ihm ab. Seine Haut ist zäh und fest, da es in der Wüste lebt.

Spanish

Sandshrew - Pokémon Ratón

Cuando se hace una bola, repele cualquier ataque. Como vive en el desierto, tiene una piel tosca y dura.
