Evolution chart
Pokédex entries
| Sword | After being reborn as a ghost Pokémon, Dreepy wanders the areas it used to inhabit back when it was alive in prehistoric seas. |
|---|---|
| Shield | If this weak Pokémon is by itself, a mere child could defeat it. But if Dreepy has friends to help it train, it can evolve and become much stronger. |
| Scarlet | In the evening, groups of Dreepy will fly at high speeds over the ocean and poke at Pokémon in the water for fun. |
| Violet | It has a habit of biting at Clauncher even though it doesn’t feed on them. This is said to be vestigial behavior from when Dreepy was alive. |
