How to get Dustox
Dustox is unlocked through the region gacha at 2★ rarity — spend tickets earned by playing (missions, achievements and run rewards). Check exact pull odds with the gacha calculator. It is not one of the 29 selectable starters, so you cannot begin a run with it directly.
Shiny Dustox
Like every one of the 966 playable species, Dustox has a shiny variant: 1/4096 on wild encounters and 1/100 on gacha pulls. Full odds and duplicate protection on the shiny page.
Available moves
Dustox can roll these moves from level-up cards during runs. Type-specific moves come from its bug/poison typing — every Pokémon can also roll the shared normal moves.
