Sun	It can live for a week without eating a thing. It waits patiently at the bottom of its nest for prey to appear.
Moon	As it digs through the sand, its giant jaws crush any rocks that obstruct its path. It builds a funnel-shaped nest.
Ultra Sun	Its jaws are strong enough to crush rocks but so heavy that it can’t get up if it flips over. Sandile seize those moments as their chance.
Ultra Moon	It builds nests that double as traps, lying in wait for its prey to get caught. When night falls, it digs itself a spot beneath the sand to sleep.
Sword	Its nest is a sloped, bowl-like pit in the desert. Once something has fallen in, there is no escape.
Shield	It makes an inescapable conical pit and lies in wait at the bottom for prey to come tumbling down.
