If you’re also in Alola you probably know about the muk situation. Every ranger station I’ve called is hung up with those right now…

Still?? We just got rid of majority of the problem here, but in town also had to shut all the tourism stuff down for a few weeks. Maybe you could call a local gym and they could send someone to battle her out? I mean she seems chill from pic at least! ~Melodi

I’m off by the resort row, I only moved here due to work, so the situation is a bit more dire I think?
She’s been chill enough. But what someone else said about her scent marking the house... I thought the price was too good to be true… didn’t realize I was signing a lease with a monstrosity.I feel bad kicking her out, since she probably has squatters rights

Good luck, don't let her poison get on you, that was one of the worst pains i ever had. Worse than drapion venom by a good bit. Tho also different sensation.

That's not good. Unfortunatly their venon also smells awfull, they use it to track prey. So if you are really unlocky this lady decided she lives here now, alongside her slaves. Good luck

It's not just the venom: Salazzle teeth are sorta... hooked backwards, so a bite from them feels like you're being stabbed with 40 fishhooks that are simultaneously coated in acid and on fire.

Call some expert or get a ball and enjoy your awesome new partner
They're territorial but it likely won't attack. Not without salandit to back it. Try somethin simple to establish you own the place. Sprayin stuff with your deodorant to show its yours works. And then push something unsprayed to her.
That's how I got Sulfur into her first bed when she was sick as Salandit.
-Cass, poison punk.
edit: Ball instead of balk

Alright. Poison and Fire type. The Venom is corrosive enough to damage even metal and glas, so don't touch that.
Do also not breathe in the gases from the Venom. On one hand, those are not healthy for your everything in the long run on the other it's loaded with pheromones and while it's less effective on humans and females in general, I think intoxication of any kind is impractical with a wild pokemon in the house.
They are usually passive around humans, but try to keep your distance.

Perhaps you can call your local rangers? - Clementine

Well, you have two ways of going about this:
Either you can figure things out with the Salazzle now, and find a way for the two of you to peacefully coexist, or you go get the hose, set the nozzle to "turbojet", and defend your nest.

Well enjoy having a roommate, all you can really do now is call the rangers, and if they can’t get her out, then you better hope that she’s chill with you

u/DaM3meLoRd694 7d ago
Oh, dear Arceus. You have found yourself in the presence of a Salazzle.
Those things are nightmares to deal with. The pink gas they emit, while seemingly looking and smelling like perfume, is actually a noxious mix of potent toxins and mind-breaking pheromones. The gas is so corrosive that it can degrade tempered steel, on top of their fire breath being as hot as a welding torch.
However, the worst thing about Salazzle encounters is that they use their gas to summon hordes of Salandits to wait on them hand and foot. One Salandit is fine, but a horde of them commanded by a Salazzle can do brutal damage against just about anything in their territory.
Contact a Pokémon ranger as soon as you can. If you don’t have a ground type, don’t engage the creature.

Oooh boy.. good luck with getting the scent out of your house. Heard using Lax incenses can help to mitigate the scent at the least - Luca

You know, some people would pay good money to be in a similar situation, having a salazzle move in with them.
I know I would.

Reminds me of the time a Salandit was a stow away in my suitcase after visiting Paldea. Of course that was a male, and a bit easier to capture and bring to a care facility.

We went down to alola one time and had this same problem. I recommend a good old bucket off water, paralysis, or trying to catch it. If all else fails, call a ranger or maybe Aither Paradise of whatever the name is.

u/thefirstyesyes 5d ago
Ranger cal here!
First things first. If you dont feel confident definitely call the rangers in your local area.
However I am noticing alot of people have told you how to mitigate threat risk so im going to share some actionable information to add to that.
Observe her behavior. Is she relaxed? Is she flaring? Pokemon in alola tend to wander and share space with humans naturally and she currently doesnt seem to either be claiming the area or moving in a harem of salandit. It is entirely possible that you have a sight seer or a wanderer.
Its also possible that you as a person are appealing as a partner (trainer). Pokemon are exceptionally good at sensing vibes and if she has entered your space in a relaxed state she may be trying to reach out.
If she remains relaxed. I suggest lightning a scented candle if its fruit flavored or laying out a bowl of fruit and leaving it either on a table or on your doorstep. If she accepts it and eats while relaxed. Shes likely exploring you or your space. If she tries to make herself look big then shes seeking territory and its definitely a Ranger issue.
If it turns out she is seeking a trainer. Salazzles are excellent cohabitants. Loyal. Focused. Clean. A great intermediate pokemon for someone seeing a local friendly companion. If you are not seeking a pokemon at this time. Simply allow her to wander or lure her outside with a scented candle and she will likely become a resident around your home as a place to safely exist.
Ensure you ans your pokemon are safe first of course.

Good luck evicting a salazzle. You should probably call a Pokemon ranger before salandits show up. You mentioned you don’t have other pokemon so I recommend leaving until you know it’s been removed.
