Omastar Sprites
A prehistoric POKéMON that died out when its heavy shell made it impossible to catch prey.
Sharp beaks ring its mouth. Its shell was too big for it to move freely, so it became extinct.
Apparently, it cracked SHELLDER's shell with its sharp fangs and sucked out the insides.
Once wrapped around its prey, it never lets go. It eats the prey by tearing at it with sharp fangs.
Its heavy shell allowed it to reach only nearby food. This could be the reason it is extinct.
Omastar's Japanese name is Omstar (オムスター). Here are all the official names for Omastar across different languages:
