Biology[]

Kelpacabana strongly resembles his pre-evolved form. He wears a red loincloth, red leaves on his shoulders, red bracelets on both wrists, and a headband with a red piece of seaweed sticking out like a feather. Several pieces of dark green seaweed stick out from his back like feathers, and he wears a red and gold token on his back as well.

He‘s passionate about dancing, just like in his pre-evolved form. He acts more spontaneous, energetic, and always ready to party.

Kelpacabana is an amazing dancer and causes people to dance insanely great. His favorite thing to do is to dance to the samba beat.
