Sandile (Japanese: メグロコ Meguroco) is a dual-type Ground/Dark Pokémon.
It evolves into Krokorok starting at level 29, which evolves into Krookodile starting at level 40.
Biology
Sandile is a short, quadruped with a long snout and tail. Its body is mostly light brown with the exception of black stripes crossing over and under its legs and its pink underbelly. It has a black stripe on its snout in front of its eyes, and black covering the tip of its tail. Its eyes resemble binoculars and are shrouded in black all around their front. The black is a membrane that helps Sandile see in the harsh desert sun. Its long snout is tipped by two protruding nostrils, and its mouth comprises the bottom half. Its feet are flat and contain three sharp, black claws. They are attached to stubby legs on its sides.
Sandile is only found in deserts. It usually burrows under the surface, with only its nose and eyes above the sand. Due to being so close to the surface, it can move around the desert and allow the heat of the sand to regulate its body temperature. As seen in the anime, in the wild, Sandile can be mischievous and potentially troublesome to humans. However, Sandile will protect another of its species, and can be caring at times.

Trivia
- No other Pokémon have the same type combination as Sandile and its evolutionary relatives.
Origin
Sandile seems to be based on a crocodile; it has traits from both the slender-snouted crocodile and the spectacled caiman. Its striped design is similar to a stereotypical burglar. Based on its Pokédex entry, it also seems to be inspired by a sandfish, a desert skink that's able to "swim" through the sand.
Name origin
Sandile is a combination of sand and crocodile and also a play on sandal, which is footwear used for walking on sand.
Meguroco may be a combination of 目黒 meguro (black-eyed) and crocodile.
