Swalot · 100 HP · {P}
Pokémon (Swalot) › Stage 1 : Evolves from Gulpin

{P} → Damage Roller
Put damage counters on the Defending Pokémon until the Defending Pokémon has the same remaining HP as Swalot. (If the Defending Pokémon has the same or less remaining HP as Swalot, this attack does nothing.)

{P}{P}{C} → Entangle Tackle : 50+
You may do 50 damage plus 30 more damage. If you do, this attack does 30 damage to 1 of your Pokémon, and don’t apply Weakness and Resistance to this damage.

weak: {P}+20 | resist: n/a | retreat: 3

    An interesting case of the atmosphere being more prominent in the work than the pokemon itself…

    Why do I have a feeling that Entangle Tackle was meant to be a Tangrowth move?

      No idea. Nothing about the original name of the attack, まきこみタックル, is particularly suggestive of tangles or vines or anything that would point it towards Tangrowth.
