How to Get Skorupi in "Platinum"
In the "Pokemon" games, Skorupi is a scorpion-like creature that secretes poison from its pointed tail. In battle, Skorupi excels at physical defense. However, it can also play the role of attacker, using moves such as Poison Sting and Bite to damage foes. In addition, as a Poison- and Bug-type Pokemon, Skorupi is resistant to Fighting-, Poison-, Bug- and Grass-type attacks. In "Pokemon Platinum," this creature makes its home in the Great Marsh.
