Feraligatr (Japanese: オーダイル Ordile) is a Water-type Pokémon.

It evolves from Croconaw starting at level 30. It is the final form of Totodile.

Biology

Physiology

Feraligatr are big, bulky Pokémon, more used to swimming than to walking on land. When this Pokémon does venture out of water, it crawls on all fours in order to move faster. However, when they are hunting or fighting, they are surprisingly agile and fast. The fact that Feraligatr are cold-blooded Pokémon means that they need to be where they can adjust their body temperatures accordingly. Feraligatr have large, powerful jaws which are able to cause heavy damage. Feraligatr also have large scales on their arms, tails, and legs, the latter of which give the appearance of pockets.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Feraligatr's jaws have the ability to lock in place like its pre-evolutions. In combination with their sheer muscle power, this ability can cause massive damage to a Pokémon.

Behavior

Habitat

Water's-edge Pokémon

Feraligatr are extremely rare in the wild. They live near water with the rest of their evolution family.

Diet

Main article: Pokémon food

Feraligatr are card-carrying carnivores. Their preferred hunting method is to hide underwater with only eyes and nostrils above the surface, waiting for prey to come to the water's edge. They attack with a sudden burst of speed and clamp their powerful jaws down on a surprised victim before it has time to react. Once the Feraligatr bites it will lock its jaws, and the prey will be secured. Then, the Feraligatr will violently shake its head and begin to tear off chunks of its prey to swallow.

Trivia

• Feraligatr is the tallest final form of a starter Pokémon, at 7 feet and 7 inches (2.3 meters).
  • Feraligatr is also the starter that reaches its final form the earliest, doing so at level 30. Coincidentally, Totodile evolves into its secondary form, Croconaw, at level 18, the latest of any starter Pokémon, tied with Turtwig into Grotle.
    • Feraligatr is also the heaviest fully evolved Water-type starter.
• The lack of a vowel between the T and R in Feraligatr is due to the ten character limit on Pokémon names, which also affects Victreebel.
• Feraligatr is the only Pokémon to have more than four syllables in its name, with five.

Origin

Like Totodile and Croconaw, Feraligatr is a crocodylian. Appearance-wise, it's an alligator. While Tyranitar vaguely resembles Godzilla, Feraligatr resembles Zilla.

Name origin

Feraligatr draws its name from a combination of feral (or possibly ferocious) and alligator. Its Japanese name may contain 王 ō, king, 皇 ō, emperor, or 大 ō, large, and dile is a reference to crocodiles.

In other languages

• German: Impergator - Combination of imperial and alligator.
• French: Aligatueur - From alligator and tueur (killer).
• Korean: 장크로다일 Jangkeurodail
