Sandygast
Sun

Born from a sand mound playfully built by a child, this Pokémon embodies the grudges of the departed.

Moon

It takes control of anyone who puts a hand in its mouth. And so it adds to the accumulation of its sand-mound body.

Ultra Sun

It likes the shovel on its head, so Sandygast will get serious and fight any children who come to take it back.

Ultra Moon

If you build sand mounds when you’re playing, destroy them before you go home, or they may get possessed and become Sandygast.
