Character info
The character
Flygon is a dual Ground/Dragon-type Pokémon known as the Mystic Pokémon, evolving from Trapinch and then Vibrava. It is noted for the sandstorm it kicks up with its wings, which shields its eyes and obscures its movements from opponents. In the games and anime it is prized for its speed and its desert habitat.
