📖 Pokédex entry in English and Japanese
Klefki sucks in metal ions with the horn topping its head. It seems this Pokémon loves keys so much that its head needed to look like one, too.頭の角で金属イオンを吸収する。鍵が大好きで、頭の形も鍵のようになっている。
The Japanese text is a translation of the English entry, written with kanji, hiragana and katakana. Try to spot the katakana words!
