About Nosepass
Nosepass is a Rock-type Pokémon, the Compass Pokémon (No. 299), introduced in Generation III and native to the Hoenn region.
Once the people of Hisui discovered that its red nose always points north, they grew to rely on it greatly when traveling afar. The nose seems to work in a similar way to ancient compasses.
