Dusclops (Japanese: サマヨール Samayouru) is a Ghost-type Pokémon.

Pokédex entries

Pokémon Ruby

Dusclops's body is completely hollow - there is nothing at all inside. It is said that its body is like a black hole. This Pokémon will absorb anything into its body, but nothing will ever come back out.

Pokémon Sapphire

Dusclops absorbs anything, however large the object may be. This Pokémon hypnotizes its foe by waving its hands in a macabre manner and by bringing its single eye to bear. The hypnotized foe is made to do Dusclops's bidding.

Pokémon Emerald

It is thought that its body is hollow with only a spectral ball of fire burning inside. However, no one has been able to confirm this theory as fact.

Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen

Its body is entirely hollow. When it opens its mouth, it sucks everything in as if it were a black hole.

Name origin

Dusclops's name is probably a combination of dusk and cyclops. Its Japanese name is probably a combination of 彷徨う samayou, to wander about, and 夜 yoru, night. The French name may be based of a combination of terror and cyclops.

Dusclops may be based on a cyclops, a mythical race of giants that had one eye. Dusclops is also similar to chōchin obake, one-eyed haunted paper lanterns and mummies.

Obtaining

=In side games

Pokémon Pinball: Ruby and Sapphire: Dusclops has its own mini-game on the Sapphire Table, but Dusclops only appears after 20 Duskulls have been hit. Hit Dusclops 5 times to win, but only hit it from behind, otherwise the ball will get sucked up and then spit out.
