#### Flavor text:
<!-- MAX: 6 lines, 18 characters each line  -->
Gold:
Its venomous bite
can defeat larger
prey than itself.
Despite its name
and looks it's not
a true dragon.

Silver:
It prefers to hunt
alone and is ready
to strike with its
venom. Yet it
forms unique bonds
with its own kind.

Crystal:
It hunts with its
venom in tropical
or arid lands. Its
feather mane acts
as both showcase
and intimidation.

### Themes from L. plumocrista

**Level-up moves**:
- Scary face = intimidating mane.
- Sludge, Poison sting, Venom Bite = More potent venom as the Pokemon levels up.
- Quick-, Feint attack = Ambush tactics.
- Roar = Territorial.
- Tackle, Crunch, Bite, High attack = Predatory feral nature.
- Agility, Acid Armor, Low Defense, High speed = Agile and good avoiding hits but can't take many of them.

**TMs reasoning**:
- Similar to Persian.
- Poison moves = Venomous.
- No ghost moves = Diurnal.
- Rain Dance = Semi-aquatic ancestry.
- Giga drain = Omnivorous, Arbok and few other poison types have this.
- Ice moves instead of Fire = Though dry and semi-arid, L. plumocrista's habitat is temperate.
- Ground moves = Dry, Terrestrial habitat.
