Slowpoke

Gold
It lazes vacantly near water. If something bites its tail, it won't even notice for a whole day.
Silver
A sweet sap leaks from its tail's tip. Although not nutritious, the tail is pleasant to chew on.
Crystal
It is always so absent-minded that it won't react, even if its flavorful tail is bitten.
