Nacli isn't listed as a wild encounter in our game data. It may only be available through gifts, events, raids or trades in some games.
It was born in a layer of rock salt deep under the earth. This species was particularly treasured in the old days, as they would share precious salt.
The ground scrapes its body as it travels, causing it to leave salt behind. Salt is constantly being created and replenished inside Nacli’s body.
Nacli can learn 39 moves:
