Type: Null – Pokemon Sun and Moon
Type Null is a strange looking chimeric Pokemon introduced with Sun and Moon. It is also a Normal type, though it looks anything but that. It learns a mix of moves as it levels up including Normal, Psychic, Steel, Dark, and even Flying. If you build enough friendship with the Pokemon, it’ll also evolve into Silvally.
Here’s an official description:
“This Pokémon wearing a mask has been dubbed ‘Null,’ meaning nothing.
The shapes of its front and hind legs are clearly different. The reason is that Type: Null was constructed to synthesize the strengths of various Pokémon, enabling it to adapt to any situation.
The mask fitted to Type: Null’s head is a piece of equipment designed to control its latent powers. It’s extremely heavy, so it also serves to hinder Type: Null’s agility.
To complete a certain mission, there was need of a Pokémon powerful enough to rival those Pokémon often spoken of in mythology.”
You encounter it early on in the game, as Team Skull member, Gladion, uses one in battle. Unfortunately, you’ll have to wait a little while until you’ll be able to get your hands on one. There’s not a location to catch Type: Null, but the Pokemon will be given to you as a gift late in either games’ story.
So just continue on your adventure, and know that eventually you’ll get this cool Pokemon completely for free. Be sure to keep it in your party, treat it well with the Care/Refresh by petting it and feeding it beans, and you will have its friendship high enough to have it evolve into Silvally.
