Probably one of my favorites from Galar. They did an amazing job with the pokemon this game. #sellartonline #art #artistsoninstagram #artwork #sketchbooktour #sketchbook #pokemon #Nickit #pokemonnickit #pokemonfanart #fanart https://www.instagram.com/p/B6a_eD5hJhP/?igshid=1ppjcfwkz0ppy
Sketched My Sword And Shield Trainer As My Favorite Galar Mon! He’s Going To Steal Your Berries
My Nickit lost her tail before I caught her, will this cause any issues down the line? She seems skittish but otherwise healthy, but I want to make sure it won't affect her quality of life as she gets older.
i imagine she actually feels much better in captivity than she did in the wild! pokemon do sometimes lose their tails, usually because they get caught in something or get injured in a fight. wild nickit are also prone to mange; it's a bit gruesome, but they sometimes chew their tails off because of how bad it itches.
a wild nickit without a tail would probably be very stressed, because it wouldn't be able to cover up its tracks! they also use the tail to balance when running quickly. your baby's nervousness might arise from not being able to wipe up spots where she's walked. the biggest issue we see arising from this is stress-based overgrooming, especially of the paws. you can help her out by giving her plenty of ways to play and "hunt" toys in areas where she doesn't leave pawprints and giving her safe areas to run around in where she can't run into anything that could hurt her.
