Probopass (Japanese: ダイノーズ Dainose) is a dual-type Rock/Steel Pokémon introduced in Generation IV. It evolves from Nosepass when leveled up in a special magnetic field or when exposed to a Thunder Stone. Probopass is a mostly blue, rock-like Pokémon with a large red nose and a bushy black mustache made of iron filings. It has three small objects called Mini-Noses attached to its sides and back, which it can control. Probopass has a big red hat-like magnet on top of its head and exudes strong magnetism from all over its body. It uses its Mini-Noses to hunt prey and attack opponents from three directions. These Mini-Noses can sometimes get lost and not return. Probopass emits strong magnetic fields that can damage nearby appliances. It can use iron sand to create rocks for attacking. Rare in the wild, Probopass is occasionally found in mountainous areas. Its design is inspired by the moai statues of Easter Island and a compass, and its name is a portmanteau of 'proboscis' and 'compass'.
