Totodile (Japanese: ワニノコ Waninoko) is a Water-type Pokémon.

It evolves into Croconaw starting at level 18, which evolves into Feraligatr starting at level 30.

Along with Chikorita and Cyndaquil, Totodile is one of the three starter Pokémon of Johto available at the beginning of Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver.

Biology

Physiology

Totodile look like small, bipedal blue crocodiles with red spines on their back and tail, the one on their back being larger with additional ridges next to the back spines. Totodile's head is large, with crocodilian ridges above its eyes, and much of the head's size is composed of Totodile's snout and strong jaws. There are two visible teeth on the tip of its upper jaw, and two rows of three teeth on each side of its lower jaw. Totodile's mouth is often depicted open. On its chest is a yellow, somewhat V-shaped pattern that extends to Totodile's arms, with a line bisecting the pattern at the middle. Totodile have five sharp claws and three toes. Its eyes have red irises, and there is a dark blue or black pattern around the eyes.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Despite their small size, Totodile are very powerful, especially when underwater. Totodile have a very large set of jaws for a Pokémon its size, just a playful nip can be painful. It can also bite with ice cold fangs.

Behavior

Totodile have a habit of biting anything they see, including their Trainers. It is unwise to turn one's back on a Totodile. Totodile also have a genuine playfulness about them, they are always ready for a good laugh. There is a tough side to Totodile though, as they can quickly react to difficult situations in a battle and bounce back with boosts of their Water-type moves.

Habitat

Totodile live close to the water. Being reptilian, they prefer tropical climates and are typically found around large rivers and ocean shores.

Diet

Main article: Pokémon food

Due to their strong jaws and sharp teeth, it is most likely that they are a carnivorous species.

In An Egg Scramble!, Khoury's Totodile would not eat its food but Brock crushed up some Chesto Berries and Totodile would eat it.

In Pokémon Adventures, Silver stole a Totodile from Professor Elm's lab. It was then able to evolve into Croconaw after destroying a built-in iron ball trap with Exbo's help, but being left in a coma after his Trainer and Gold's defeat against the Masked Man left it unable to evolve until the fight with an outraged Lugia enticed all three of the Johto starter Pokémon to evolve. With its increased strength and Surf ability, it is the major mainstay of Silver's team.

Other appearances

Super Smash Bros. Melee and Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Totodile was the only Generation II starter Pokémon to appear only as a random trophy, not in a Poké Ball.

Melee trophy information

Little but feisty is the best description for these Water-type Pokémon. The first thing they do when they see something move is latch onto it with their powerful jaws. Totodile was one of the three Pokémon that Professor Elm offered to Trainers in Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal. They evolve into Croconaw.

Brawl trophy information

"A Big Jaw Pokémon. This alligator-like Pokémon stands on two legs. It has a small body but an impressive jaw that boasts potent bite power. It can do serious damage to someone even if it's just playing. Its tendency to chomp down on anything that moves in front of it means Trainers have to be extra cautious around it. When it levels up, it evolves into Croconaw."
