Karrablast (Japanese: カブルモ Kaburumo) is a Bug-type Pokémon.

It evolves into Escavalier when traded for a Shelmet, which evolves into Accelgor simultaneously. Neither evolves if at least one holds an Everstone during the trade.

Biology

Karrablast is a round, bipedal Pokémon with a primarily blue carapace that comprises a horn at the tip. Its black face has a teal patch on its forehead, a fanged mouth, and eyes with orange pupils and yellow scleras. Its ridged underbelly, or plastron, is yellow, and its stubby arms and legs are black. When it senses danger, it spews an acidic liquid from its mouth. It targets Shelmet, so it can evolve. It resides in forests and fields, and it often hides in trees or grass if threatened.

Trivia

  • Karrablast and Shelmet are the only Pokémon that have to be traded for a specific Pokémon to evolve, having to be traded for each other.

Origin

Karrablast may be based on the Japanese Snail-eating Beetle (Carabus blaptoides blaptoides) due to its penchant for attacking Shelmet, a snail-like Pokémon.

Karrablast and Shelmet may be a reference to coevolution, where the evolution of one species is influenced by changes in another, closely related species. In this case, the relationship between predator and prey.

Name origin

Karrablast may be a combination of κέρατο kérato (Greek for horn) and plastron (the underside of a shelled creature). It may also be a corruption of Carabidae, the family of ground beetles.

Kaburumo is derived from 噛りつく kaburitsuku (to bite into or stick to, referring its species name).
