Hot New Artist from Paldea!

Grafaiai
Category: Toxic Monkey Pokémon

Grafaiai is a moody Pokémon with a fastidious disposition. It doesn’t form packs, preferring to roam alone, and it is constantly caught up in territorial struggles with other Pokémon. Grafaiai specializes in using its poisonous saliva—which changes color depending on what the Pokémon eats—to attack foes by spitting at them or by slashing at them after coating its claws with the saliva.
Grafaiai is nocturnal and once the sun sets it licks its hands and fingers to cover them in poison and uses them to draw patterns on the trees in its territory. The poisonous saliva it uses to paint paralyzes Bug Pokémon, which are drawn to the saliva’s sweet, fragrant scent.
We may not have gotten a Smeargle evolution but this is just as cool! Better watch out! Or you may find yourself poisoned if you get too close to this monkey’s art.
Below is the video for the reveal of this new Pokemon!
