==Biology==
==Biology==
Pupitar is encased inside a thick shell made of grayish-blue rock. Its red eyes can be seen through two holes in the shell, and two more holes directly above resemble eyebrows. The upper portion of its body it covered by a mask-like plate with four large spikes on either side. Three additional spikes protrude from its forehead. Since its arms and legs are developing inside the shell, Pupitar is capable of venting gas to propel itself around, and can generate enough forces to knock down mountains. Pupitar lives and moves freely around harsh {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountain}} ranges.
Pupitar is a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} encased inside a thick grayish-blue shell, sporting a hardness that is comparable to bedrock. Its red eyes can be seen through two holes in the shell, and two more holes directly above resemble eyebrows. The upper portion of its body is covered by a mask-like plate with four large spikes on either side. Three additional spikes protrude from its forehead, and another pair of spikes are visible on either side of its lower body.


==In the anime==
While its arms and legs are developing inside the shell, Pupitar uses compressed gas to propel itself around, and can generate enough force to knock down mountains. Pupitar lives and moves freely around harsh {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon|mountain}} ranges.

* Pupitar is only Pokémon that undergoes metamorphosis-like evolution whose {{stat|Defense}} [[base stats|base stat]] is not higher than its {{stat|Attack}}. Instead, its Attack base stat is its highest stat.

Pupitar is based on a pupa, as it is between its evolutionary line's larval stage ({{p|Larvitar}}) and adulthood ({{p|Tyranitar}}).
Pupitar appears to be based on a {{wp|pupa}}, as it is between its evolutionary line's larval stage ({{p|Larvitar}}) and adulthood ({{p|Tyranitar}}), which is more appropriate for {{wp|insect}}s rather than {{wp|reptile}}s.

Pupitar is derived from ''{{wp|pupa}}'', the stage in some insects between the larval stage and adulthood.
Pupitar may be derived from ''{{wp|pupa}}'', the stage in some insects between the larval stage and adulthood, and ''{{wp|Tarasque}}''.


Sanagiras may be a combination of 蛹 ''sanagi'' (pupa) and 嫌い ''kirai'' (hate).

Pupitar (Japanese: サナギラス Sanagiras) is a dual-type Rock/Ground Pokémon introduced in Generation II.

It evolves from Larvitar starting at level 30 and evolves into Tyranitar starting at level 55.

Biology

Pupitar is a Pokémon encased inside a thick grayish-blue shell, sporting a hardness that is comparable to bedrock. Its red eyes can be seen through two holes in the shell, and two more holes directly above resemble eyebrows. The upper portion of its body is covered by a mask-like plate with four large spikes on either side. Three additional spikes protrude from its forehead, and another pair of spikes are visible on either side of its lower body.

While its arms and legs are developing inside the shell, Pupitar uses compressed gas to propel itself around, and can generate enough force to knock down mountains. Pupitar lives and moves freely around harsh mountain ranges.

Evolution

Pupitar evolves from Larvitar and evolves into Tyranitar.

(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to Game data→Evolution data.)

Trivia

Origin

Pupitar appears to be based on a pupa, as it is between its evolutionary line's larval stage (Larvitar) and adulthood (Tyranitar), which is more appropriate for insects rather than reptiles.

Name origin

Pupitar may be derived from pupa, the stage in some insects between the larval stage and adulthood, and Tarasque.

Sanagiras may be a combination of 蛹 sanagi (pupa), 嫌い kirai (hated), and ソーラス -saurus (Greek-derived suffix for dinosaur names).
