Blue Ocean Slug
A "real" Pokemon!
Class: Snails and slugs
Order: Opisthobranchia
Family: Gastropods
Habitat: South Africa, Europe, Australia, Mozambique
Thanks to its wings and extensions, it is also known as the sea swallow, blue angel and blue dragon. Although they only grow up to 1.2 inch (3 cm) in length, they can best larger, highly venomous predators, such as the Portuguese man o’ war (a jellyfish). Their venom doesn’t bother the blue ocean slug, as it’s immune. Its body shape helps to camouflage it on the ocean floor.
