West Sea: Its search for food sometimes leads it onto land, where it leaves behind a sticky trail of slime as it passes through.
East Sea: It secretes a purple fluid to deter enemies. This fluid isn’t poisonous—instead, it’s super sticky, and once it sticks, it’s very hard to unstick.
West Sea: The softness of its body helps disperse the force of impacts, so although its body is uncommonly squishy, it’s also surprisingly resilient.
East Sea: Its body is covered in a sticky slime. It’s very susceptible to dehydration, so it can’t spend too much time on land.
