About Staryu

Staryu is a Water-type Pokémon known as the Starshape Pokémon. It is a mysterious and elegant creature with a star-shaped body and five appendages. Staryu’s body is translucent and glows brightly in the night sky. It has a red gem in the center that acts as its core and is responsible for its life force. Staryu has the remarkable ability to regenerate lost limbs, making it incredibly resilient in battles. It can detach one of its arms, known as “tentacles,” to act independently and explore its surroundings. Staryu has a symbiotic relationship with Starmie, often found together in groups near the ocean’s surface. It feeds on microscopic plankton, and its presence can indicate the purity of seawater. Staryu is commonly found in coastal areas and is known to be friendly and curious toward humans.

Evolution

Staryu evolves into Starmie when exposed to a Water Stone.
