The Pokémon’s story

Cacnea lives in deserts and stores enough water in its body to endure long periods without drinking. A yellow flower appears on its head once a year. Its fragrance attracts prey; when they approach, Cacnea fires its spikes or swings its prickly arms. The driest conditions can make its flower even more beautiful and fragrant. The Pokédex presents a hunter adapted to drought that turns its bloom into a trap.

A detail worth noticing

Pokémon Black gives Cacnea endurance of up to thirty days without water thanks to its reserves. Pokémon Omega Ruby describes its flower's fragrance as bait before a spike attack. A resource for desert survival thus also becomes useful for hunting.
