The lush paradise of Alola is home to many native grass-types, and its fringes contain a great deal of fire and ice-types. Due to this fierce competition for space, one breed of Tangrowth adapted to life beneath the waves where fewer natural predators could get at them. In time their feet became better suited for paddling, and they developed transparent covers over their eyes so that they could see clearly even underwater. Their vines took on the qualities of seaweed, allowing them to both absorb water in greater quantities and hide within kelp forests. This adaptation enhanced their speed, but in the process drastically diminished their physical resiliency.
Alolan Tangrowth typically allow their vines to drift for dozens of feet overhead, waiting for prey to brush past before grabbing them and pulling them down into the depths.
