Wattrel is a nest-building species; it makes its nest on top of cliffsides in coastal areas. Oddly enough, the nest that Wattrel builds is a sought-after delicacy as its crackling texture gives off a savory taste.
Natural abilities
Wattrel absorbs electricity from the wind that it catches via its wings. It uses this ability to electrocute underwater prey.

It evolves into Kilowattrel starting at level 27.
