Anorith (Japanese: アノプス Anopth) is a dual-type Rock/Bug Pokémon.
It is resurrected from a Claw Fossil and then evolves into Armaldo starting at level 40.
Biology
Anorith is a fossil Pokémon no longer found in the wild, and must be resurrected from a Claw Fossil.
Physiology
Anorith is a swimming creature which uses flexible lobes on the sides of its body to propel itself through the water. Its large head had one pair of large, beady eyes. Two large claws protrude from its head, serving as either defense against predators or attack against prey. These claws eventually turn to the fossil that can be used to revive the Anorith.
Gender differences
No gender differences.
Special abilities
Behavior
Anorith hunt for prey on the sea floor and grip their prey in their sharp claws.
Habitat
The exact habitat of Anorith is unknown, but so far Claw Fossils are only found in the Hoenn and Sinnoh regions.
Diet

In the anime
Its first appearance was on a small island to the east of Hoenn's mainland in Where's Armaldo? where it was being studied with the other fossil Pokémon from Hoenn.
More Anorith were resurrected and studied by the scientists in Oreburgh City in Wild in the Streets.
Team Rocket's plan in Ancient Family Matters! is to steal a large Claw Fossil, though the Pokémon itself does not fully appear.
