'''Staraptor''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ムクホーク''' ''Mukuhawk'') is a {{t|Normal}}/{{t|Flying}}-type Pokémon.
'''Staraptor''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ムクホーク''' ''Mukuhawk'') is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Flying}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation IV]].
 
It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Staravia}} starting at [[level]] 34. It is the final form of {{p|Starly}}.
 
==Biology==
Staraptor is a grayish-brown, avian {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} similar to a large bird of prey. It has small, red eyes and a thin, yellow beak with a black tip. There is a circular white patch on its forehead, which is smaller on the female. Larger white markings cover the front of its throat and chest, separated by a black ruff encircling the shoulders. A red-tipped black crest extends over its head, nearly reaching the tip of its beak. Staraptor is fussy about the shape of this comb, which it uses to appear larger and frighten enemies. It has large wings, five black-tipped tail feathers, and yellow feet with black talons. Its powerful wing and leg muscles allow it to fly effortlessly while carrying other Pokémon, small or large.


Staraptor evolves from {{p|Staravia}} at Level 34.
Upon evolution, this Pokémon leaves its flock to live alone, as it has become strong enough to take care of itself. It can be highly aggressive, persistently attacking even larger foes in spite of illness or injury.


=Biology=
===Evolution===
==Physiology==
Staraptor evolves from {{p|Staravia}} and is the final form of {{p|Starly}}.
Staraptor bares a resemblance between a large gray and white starling and a hawk. It also shares similarities with the great-horned owl. The "M" on the center of its chest resembles the first letter of its Japanese name (''Mukuhawk''). The downward crest on its head makes it appear larger in order to frighten its enemies.


===Gender differences===
(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data&rarr;Evolution data]].)
A female has a smaller white spot on its forehead.

Staraptor (Japanese: ムクホーク Mukuhawk) is a dual-type Normal/Flying Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.

It evolves from Staravia starting at level 34. It is the final form of Starly.

Biology

Staraptor is a grayish-brown, avian Pokémon similar to a large bird of prey. It has small, red eyes and a thin, yellow beak with a black tip. There is a circular white patch on its forehead, which is smaller on the female. Larger white markings cover the front of its throat and chest, separated by a black ruff encircling the shoulders. A red-tipped black crest extends over its head, nearly reaching the tip of its beak. Staraptor is fussy about the shape of this comb, which it uses to appear larger and frighten enemies. It has large wings, five black-tipped tail feathers, and yellow feet with black talons. Its powerful wing and leg muscles allow it to fly effortlessly while carrying other Pokémon, small or large.

Upon evolution, this Pokémon leaves its flock to live alone, as it has become strong enough to take care of itself. It can be highly aggressive, persistently attacking even larger foes in spite of illness or injury.

Evolution

Staraptor evolves from Staravia and is the final form of Starly.

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

Trivia

Origin

Staraptor is based on the white-cheeked starling, a common species of bird found throughout Asia, combined with a bird of prey. Although it largely resembles the starling in appearance, much of its inspiration comes from hawks and falcons, particularly its predatory nature and aerial speed. It also has strong similarities to the harpy eagle. The feathers hanging over its face are similar to the long-crested eagle.

Name origin

Staraptor is a combination of starling and raptor (a predatory bird).

Mukuhawk is a combination of 椋鳥 mukudori (gray starling) and hawk.
