SANDYGAST

This is the next in a VERY long “to Do” list that my daughters have given me.  They have been asking for Sandygast and his evolution, Palossand, since Pokemon Sun & Moon came out in November last year.  They received the games for Christmas.  Of course, Pokemon Go got them obsessed with Pokemon and it has expanded ever since.  My daughters remind me how my brother was when Pokemon first came out.  This is my pattern for Sandygast.  Palossand will be coming soon.  This pattern includes the color lists for both Sandygast and Shiny Sandygast.
