Crawdaunt (Japanese: シザリガー Shizariger) is a dual-type Water/Dark Pokémon.

It evolves from Corphish at level 30.

Biology

Physiology

Crawdaunt are large crustacean Pokémon. They have three pairs of limbs in total: two claws, one pair of legs that resembles Corphish's and a back pair that looks almost elephantine. They possess two blue stripes on their chin that are sometimes mistaken for a pair of lips. On the top of their head is a yellow star-shaped object, the purpose of which is currently not known.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Crawdaunt is a very powerful, if violent Pokémon. Its strong pincers allow it to use moves such as ViceGrip and even Guillotine. Its tough outer armor also provide it with a sturdy armor, which can be seen with its ability Shell Armor.

Behavior
