Garchomp (Japanese: ガブリアス Gablias) is a Dragon/Ground-type Pokémon. It is also a pseudo-legendary.


Biology

Physiology

Garchomp appears to be a blue dragon crossed with a hammerhead shark. On each limb are four spikes, their use unknown, with a red belly with one yellow triangle near its pelvis. On each of its forelegs are a single, sharp claw, with two dorsal fin-like "wings" that it flies with. On the sides of its head are two extentions from a hammerhead shark, and resemble plane turbines.

Gender differences

The female has a full dorsal fin, while the male's has a triangular cut in it, like its pre-evolutions.

Special abilities

Though Garchomp is not able to learn the move Fly, and cannot possess Levitate it can still fly at an incredible speed to catch its prey.

Trivia

Garchomp bears the same star symbol that Sharpedo has. It was rumored that Garchomp was going to become a Sharpedo evolution.

Origin

Appearance-wise, Garchomp seems like a cross between a European dragon and a hammerhead shark. Its German name, Knakrack, comes from knackig and Krach. Its Frech name, Carchacrok, comes from Carcharodon, scientific name of sharks, and croquant.
