Special abilities

Dustox's antennae are often used to seek out food, and its wings contain a highly poisonous dust.

Behavior

Habitat

Dustox live in forests, much like its pre-evolutions, Wurmple and Cascoon. In Generation III, they are never seen in the wild, but they can be found that they live in forests in Generation IV.

Diet

In the anime

File:Jessie dustox.jpg
Jessie's Dustox in Battle.

Jessie's Cascoon evolved into Dustox in Seeing is Believing. It was her primary contest Pokémon. It was known able to hold down a good battle. Dustox won Jessie her first ribbon in Team Shocker! at the Solaceon Town Contest.

Jessie's Dustox is seen wearing yellow ribbons on it's antenae, the same ribbons Jessie wore in contest. In DP073 she painfully released it, so that it could go off during Dustox Mating Season.

A shiny Dustox appeared in DP073 Goodbye Dustox!, this Dustox was seen leaving with Jessies Dustox and a big flock of Dustox to go mate during season.

Ruby Dustox is instinctively drawn to light. Swarms of this Pokémon are attracted by the bright light of cities, where they wreak havoc by stripping the leaves off roadside trees for food.
Sapphire When Dustox flaps its wings, a fine dust is scattered all over. This dust is actually a powerful poison that will even make a pro wrestler sick. This Pokémon searches for food using its antennae like radar.
Emerald It is a nocturnal Pokémon that flies from fields and mountains to the attraction of streetlights at night. It looses highly toxic powder from its wings.
FireRed It scatters horribly toxic dust when it senses danger. They tend to gather in the glow of streetlamps at night.
LeafGreen It scatters horribly toxic dust when it senses danger. They tend to gather in the glow of streetlamps at night.
