==Biology==
==Biology==
Oshawott is a bipedal sea otter-like Pokémon. It has a spherical white head with small, triangular dark-blue ears on the sides. Oshawott's eyes are dark and its dark orange nose is shaped like a horizontal oval. Several freckles cover its cheeks which may be premature whiskers, and two pointed teeth can be seen when it opens its mouth. The light blue fur on its body forms bubble shapes around its neck. Its arms are white and rounded, while its feet are dark blue with three toes each. It also possesses a rudder-like dark blue tail. It carries a pale yellow seashell called a "[[Scalchop and seamitar|scalchop]]" on its belly. This shell is made of the same material as its claws, and is used for both battle and cracking hard berries.

This shell is made of the same material as its claws and is used for both battles and cracking hard [[Berry|berries]]. Oshawott wields the shell like a knife. It uses the scalchop to block the moves of its enemies before slashing back at them in swift retaliation. Oshawott learned to how maintain its scalchop with riverbed stones by copying the humans it observes using whetstones. If the scalchop is heavily damaged or lost, Oshawott can grow a new one from its navel.<ref>{{game|Black and White|s}}: "The extremely hard shell that forms over Oshawott's navel can be used as a tool." —''Oshawott Anatomy'', [[Nacrene Gym]]</ref><ref>[[Pokémon Adventures]], [[PS470]]</ref> It has been recently seen living in the [[Terarium]] of [[Blueberry Academy]].
 
===Evolution===
Oshawott evolves into {{p|Dewott}}, which evolves into {{p|Samurott}}.
 
In [[Hisui]], it evolves into Dewott, which evolves into {{rf|Hisuian}} Samurott.

[[Ken Sugimori]] said that Oshawott and its {{p|Dewott|evolution}}s were the hardest for the team to design during production, as conceptualizing its {{p|Samurott|evolution}}s were difficult.

====Name origin====
====Name origin====
Oshawott may be a combination of ''ocean'', ''shell'', ''water'', and ''{{wp|otter}}''. It may be a reference to {{wp|Oshawa}}, {{wp|Canada}}, as Canada contains many protected areas in which sea otters reside, the name of which comes from the Ojibwa word ''aazhaway'' ("crossing the river" or "to leave one's canoe behind"). Oshawott may refer to ''Asherah'', the Hebrew goddess also known as the "Lady of the Sea". It may also derive from {{wp|George Ohsawa}}, a famed dietitian born into a poor samurai family during the {{wp|Meiji Restoration}} of Japan.

Oshawott (Japanese: ミジュマル Mijumaru) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V.

It evolves into Dewott starting at level 17, which evolves into Samurott starting at level 36.

In Hisui, it evolves into Dewott starting at level 17, which evolves into Hisuian Samurott starting at level 36.

Along with Snivy and Tepig, Oshawott is one of the three first partner Pokémon of Unova available at the beginning of Pokémon Black, White, Black 2, and White 2.

Oshawott is also one of the three first parnter Pokémon of Hisui in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, alongside Rowlet and Cyndaquil.

Biology

Oshawott is a bipedal sea otter-like Pokémon. It has a spherical white head with small, triangular dark-blue ears on the sides. Oshawott's eyes are dark, and its dark-orange nose is shaped like a horizontal oval. Several freckles cover its cheeks which may be premature whiskers, and two pointed teeth can be seen when it opens its mouth. The light blue fur on its body forms bubble shapes around its neck. Its arms are white and rounded, while its feet are dark blue with three toes each. It also possesses a rudder-like dark blue tail. It carries a pale yellow seashell called a "scalchop" on its belly.

This shell is made of the same material as its claws and is used for both battles and cracking hard berries. Oshawott wields the shell like a knife. It uses the scalchop to block the moves of its enemies before slashing back at them in swift retaliation. Oshawott learned to how maintain its scalchop with riverbed stones by copying the humans it observes using whetstones. If the scalchop is heavily damaged or lost, Oshawott can grow a new one from its navel.[1][2] It has been recently seen living in the Terarium of Blueberry Academy.

Evolution

Oshawott evolves into Dewott, which evolves into Samurott.

In Hisui, it evolves into Dewott, which evolves into Hisuian Samurott.

Trivia

The three silhouettes on Pokémon Sunday
  • Oshawott and its fellow Unova first partner Pokémon were first revealed as silhouettes on the May 9, 2010 episode of Pokémon Sunday. They were later revealed in full in the June 2010 issue of CoroCoro.
  • Oshawott has the lowest base stat total of all Water-type first partner Pokémon.
  • Oshawott's evolutionary line is the only Water-type first partner Pokémon evolutionary line that is not part of the Water 1 Egg Group.
  • In Pokémon Black and White, Oshawott, along with Snivy and Tepig, has the lowest experience yield of all Pokémon, with a base value of 28. This was done specifically for the first two battles of the games, so the player's first partner Pokémon wouldn't level up after defeating Bianca and thus have a level advantage over Cheren.
  • Oshawott is the only first partner Pokémon in Legends: Arceus to not have either of its evolution levels changed, as they were already 17 and 36, which the other two first partner Pokémon changed to in order to match.
  • Oshawott and its evolutions are the only pre-Generation VIII Pokémon in Legends: Arceus to have not been available in previous Generation VIII games.
  • Oshawott and its evolutions were designed by Yusuke Ohmura.[3][4] It was also the last Generation V first partner Pokémon to be created, with the staff noting that they always have some difficulty coming up with concepts for the Water-type first partner Pokémon.[4]
  • According to Ken Sugimori in an interview, Oshawott's Japanese name was originally ラッコマル Rakkomaru.[5] The name may be a combination of ラッコ rakko (sea otter) and 丸 maru (a common suffix in male Japanese names).

Origin

Bulbanews
Bulbanews has an article related to this subject:

Oshawott is based on a sea otter pup and samurai.[4][5] Sea otters are known for using tools, including clam shells, with their forelimbs; the placement of Oshawott's scalchop is reminiscent of the way a sea otter looks when cracking open its prey against the tool on its stomach. This scalchop also holds similarities with Japanese war fans, which were often used by samurai for defensive purposes.

Oshawott's evolutionary line as a whole is based on the lifespan of a samurai: from a child (Oshawott), to a young samurai (Dewott), to a military commander (Samurott).[5] Snivy, Tepig, and Oshawott's evolutionary lines are collectively based on Western, Chinese, and Japanese culture respectively, to represent the diversity of the Unova region.[4]

Name origin

Oshawott may be a combination of ocean, shell, water, wash, and otter.

Mijumaru may be a combination of 水 mizu (water) or 未熟 mijuku (naive or immature) and 丸 maru (round; a common suffix in male Japanese names). According to Ken Sugimori, suffixes such as -maru or -suke were considered for Oshawott's Japanese name to make it sound more typically Japanese.[5] Miju may also refer to an otter named Mijbil, the subject of an autobiographical novel and movie called Ring of Bright Water.
