Talk:Feraligatr (Pokémon)

Shouldn't we say that the name token in G/S/C is only 10 characters long, so they couldn't fit an o between the t and r? [[User:Hangfromthefloor|Hangfromthefloor]] 10:19, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
:That is an interesting piece of trivia. In fact, it's the same reason it's {{p|Victreebel}} with only one L. Put it in the trivia section. [[User:TTEchidna|Tom Temprotran]] 11:10, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

This guy's Generation III backsprite is the reason I never evolved my Colosseum Croconaw. [[User:Gligar|Gli]][[User talk:Gligar|gar]] 20:01, 20 September 2008 (UTC)

== STAB ==

Shouldn't Aqua Tail in the move tutor section be in bold letters since the move receives STAB --[[User:COLOMBIApsi|COLOMBIApsi]] 04:10, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
:Obviously. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 04:13, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

==Skin Color==

Shouldn't we say the skin color in G/S/C was because of poor color capabilities? Because the artwork from Gold and Silver clearly shows it to have blue skin, but the sprite from the same games clearly shows that it has green skin. I know Sneasel was affected by the same color error. Also, just as a little extra thing, who agrees with me that Feraligatr looks SO much cooler with green skin than blue? [[User:Igglybuff63|Igglybuff63]] 15:17, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

==Where did it say that Feraligatr was cold-blooded?==

I am confused as to the veracity of this statement. I do not know which source this statement is from. [[User:Steph|Steph]] 00:55, 28 July 2010 (UTC)

== Syllables ==

The trivia section says that Feraligatr is the only Pokemon to have more than five syllables in its name. What about Electivire? Does he not have 5 syllables?

What source is there to the existance of this Pokémon? [[User:User142|User142]] ([[User talk:User142|Talk]]) 13:43, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
:The commercials for the game being aired in Japan. It's real, trust me. --[[User:Pie|Pie]] 14:57, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

And further more, where's the source that confirmed that name?--[[User:Pokencyclopedia|Pokencyclopedia]] 14:56, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
:Coro Coro. It's up on [[n:September 2006 CoroCoro scans leaked to Internet|Bulbanews]]. --[[User:Fabu-Vinny|FabuVinny]] 20:55, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

----

Have any of you noticed that the piece of Ken Sugimori artwork that's on this site of Erekiburu has its toes arranged differently than the sprite?--[[User:Pokencyclopedia|Pokencyclopedia]] 10:51, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

----

Will Jynx and Magmar have evolutionary forms as well?
--[[User:Kanga|Kanga]] 22:15, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Isn't it pretty safe to say that his name is Elekiburu, or something of that nature, seeing as every single time the Hepburn translation translates L they get R? Also, why on earth would an electric-type with the first two members starting with 'ele' not also start with 'ele'?
--[[User:123456789|123456789]]
PS: It would be awesome if he learned 'discharge' or whatever that squirrel thing knows that hurts both pokemon; enemy would take damage, and electric engine ups speed.

This might be interesting: Electivire has a plug socket on it's back. Elekid has plug prongs on it's head. Trivia? --{{u|Stinkoman}}

== Dr Eggman ==

Do we REALLY need another sonic reference, I honestly don't see the resemblance. [[User:Shiny Lanturn|Shiny Lanturn]] 12:23, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
:It has been removed. -[[User:Sketchies|Sketchies]] 14:52, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

== Pronunciation? ==

What is the most accepted pronunciation of this Pokemon's name?

'''Crobat''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''クロバット''' ''Crobat'') is a dual-type {{2t|Poison|Flying}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Golbat}} via [[happiness]]. It is the final form of {{p|Zubat}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Crobat has a purple body as opposed to being blue, like its pre-evolutions. Crobat has a stubby pair of feet, and has developed a second pair of wings with greenish-blue undersides and two stubby ‘fingers’. Crobat’s pointed ears are longer than {{P|Golbat}}’s, and, unlike its pre-evolutions, appear to lack ear insides. Crobat’s mouth is smaller in comparison to Golbat’s, and appears to constantly have its teeth bared. Crobat's eyes are yellow with red pupils.
====Gender differences====
None.

====Special abilities====
Crobat's extra pair of wings allow it to fly much faster than its predecessors. Crobat's wings have also developed a more powerful cutting edge for using {{m|Cross Poison}} and {{m|X-Scissor}}.

Like most fully evolved Pokémon, Crobat can learn {{m|Hyper Beam}} and {{m|Giga Impact}}.

===Behavior===

Like its pre-evolutions, Crobat becomes active at night. If Crobat is flying by fluttering only a pair of wings on either the forelegs or hind legs, it's proof that Crobat has been flying a long distance. It switches the wings it uses if it is tired. By alternately resting its front and rear wings, it can fly all day without having to stop. Crobat rests by hanging on a tree branch with its rear legs that serve as wings.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Cave.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Cave Pokémon|Cave Pokémon]]]]
Crobat is a cave-dwelling Pokémon, however it is likely that they flutter outside [[Nocturnal Pokémon|during the night]].

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

Crobat sneaks up on its intended prey.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Brock_crobat.jpg|thumb|right|{{TP|Brock|Crobat}} in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Brock's Crobat]]====
{{an|Brock}} had a Crobat that he originally caught as a {{p|Zubat}}. He eventually gave it to his brother [[Forrest]].

====Other====

===Minor appearances===
Several Crobat appeared in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part One]]'', employed by the [[J's henchmen|followers]] of [[J|Hunter J]].

Crobat made a small appearance in ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'' as one of the Pokémon {{mov|Darkrai|Darkrai|10}} hit with a {{m|Dark Void}} attack as the other trainers were attacking him.

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Johto}}
{{Animedexbody|EP196|Crobat|Ash's Pokédex|Crobat, the evolved form of {{p|Golbat}}. With its two additional wings, Crobat is able to fly much faster than Golbat.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|original|Johto}}

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
In {{PAV|11}}, [[Janine]] uses a Crobat to fight {{p|Suicune}}, but even her best ninja-based skills fail to defeat the legendary Water-type.

Giovanni is later seen with a Crobat in {{PAV|24}}, presumably picked up during his solo training journey.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Crobat (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
Crobat only appears as a random trophy.
====Trophy information====
A Bat Pokémon that evolves from {{P|Golbat}}, Crobat's hind legs have evolved into a second pair of wings, which allows it to fly at great speeds but limits its ability to rest. The affection a Golbat has for its {{pkmn|Trainer}} is vital for the evolution process: if a novice Trainer has a Crobat, it shows that he or she cares for Pokémon well.

==Trivia==
* Despite the fact that the Pokédex information says that Crobat's rear legs and rear wings are the same body part, Crobat clearly has a set of feet and legs distinct from its hind wings depicted in the rear sprites in [[Generation III]], as well as in the anime, TCG, and 3D games. However, the [[footprint]] in the Pokédex for Crobat is blank.
* Crobat is in all regional [[Pokédex]]es except the [[National Pokédex|Kanto Pokédex]], due to the fact that it wasn't introduced until [[Generation II]].
* To date, every [[Villainous teams|villainous team]] in the main series of games have had at least one of their members use Crobat and/or one its [[Evolution|evolutionary]] family. The head of all villainous teams aside from [[Team Rocket]] uses one in their final battle with the player.
**This is especially interesting due to the fact that the villainous teams typically are depicted not to care about Pokémon, yet Crobat evolves with happiness.
* Since its debut in [[Generation II]], Crobat's color scheme has been {{p|Golbat}}'s color scheme, inverted. This also applies to its shiny variation.
* Crobat is the first Pokémon in National Pokédex order to be related to a Pokémon of a previous [[generation]].
* In recent 3-D games, it is revealed that Crobat has teeth only in its lower jaw.
** This is also shown in {{ga|Pokémon Ranger}}, when it uses its attack.
**However in the Generation II sprites, Crobat has its teeth on the upper jaw.
* Crobat and its pre-evolutions are the only Pokémon to have three double resistances.
*Crobat has the highest base stat total of all {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon, excluding {{p|Arceus}} while holding the Toxic Plate.
* Crobat is the fastest {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon, with a base Speed of 130.
** Crobat is tied with {{p|Aerodactyl}} for being the second fastest {{type2|Flying}} Pokémon, behind {{p|Ninjask}}.
* Crobat is the only Pokémon of its body type ([[List of Pokémon by body style#Pokémon that have two pairs of wings|type 13]]) that is not {{type2|Bug}} or in the {{egg3|Bug}}.
* Prior to Generation IV, Crobat was the only member of the Zubat evolutionary line that could learn {{m|Fly}}. This is likely reflective of its increased flight capabilities due to its extra wings.
* Crobat's HeartGold and SoulSilver sprites shows the back of its bottom left wing facing forward.
* Strangely, despite being obtained through happiness, Crobat always has a scowl on its face.

===Origin===
Crobat is based on a {{wp|bat}}.

====Name origin====
Crobat's name is a combination of ''cross'' and ''{{wp|bat}}''. It may also be a combination of 黒 ''kuro'', black, and English ''{{wp|bat}}''. It may also be a pun on acrobat.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Iksbat - The letter X is pronounced ''Iks'' in German, might refer to the arrangement of its wings.
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Nostenfer - From ''nocturne'' (nocturnal) or ''{{wp|Nosferatu (word)|Nosferatu}}'', and ''Enfer'' (Hell).
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 크로뱃 ''Keurobaet''

'''Magneton''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''レアコイル''' ''Rarecoil'') is a dual-type {{2t|Electric|Steel}} Pokémon. However, in [[Generation I]], it was pure Electric-type since the Steel-type hadn't been introduced at the time.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Magnemite}} starting at [[level]] 30, and evolves into {{p|Magnezone}} via level-up in [[Mt. Coronet]].

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Magneton is the result of three Magnemite being linked together by a strong magnetic force, although a single Magnemite can evolve by itself when no other Magnemite are in the vicinity. There are several ways that the three Magnemite, that Magneton consists of, can be linked. Magneton is most commonly seen as one Magnemite on top, and two Magnemite linked via body on the bottom, forming a triangle. However, in some cases, the Magnemite will not be connected at all, but still remain in a triangular pattern. In the anime, the size of Magneton's magnets change in different episodes. This doesn't seem to be based on anything except possibly an oversight by the animators. Magneton was originally thought to be a pure {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon, but it was eventually discovered to have traits of a {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon as well. Even though Magneton, its {{p|Magnemite|pre-evolution}} and its {{p|Magnezone|evolution}} are all mechanical creatures, they still have emotions, can get hungry, and have a way of reproducing. Magneton has been considered to be related to {{p|Metang}} and {{p|Bronzong}} since both are also half Steel-type Pokémon that float by using electromagnetic waves.

====Gender differences====
This Pokémon is genderless.

====Special abilities====
Magneton can emit strange radio waves that can greatly damage various electronic equipment, raise air temperatures by 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit within a 3,300-foot radius and cause earaches to anyone that gets too close to it. Magneton mostly learns attacks that Magnemite is capable of learning. However, unlike Magnemite, Magneton can learn {{m|Tri Attack}}. Even though Magneton is not yet fully evolved, it can learn {{m|Hyper Beam}} and {{m|Giga Impact}}. On [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness|very rare occasions]], Magneton can know {{m|Refresh}}.

===Behavior===
Magneton behave similarly to their pre-evolution, Magnemite, in that they generally do not bother people and keep to themselves unless provoked. If they are provoked however, they will resort to non-damaging moves, but, will not hesitate to use more powerful moves if not left alone. Unlike most other evolved Pokémon, in battle, Magneton are very easy to command and rarely lose focus.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Roughterrain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon}}]]
Magneton usually live around power plants and rough terrain where large deposits of metal can be found, but they're harder to find than Magnemite.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Magneton feed off of electrical charges.

==In the anime==
[[Image:EP268Shinymagneton.jpg|thumb|right|[[Vincent|Jackson]]'s {{shiny2}} Magneton]]
===Major appearances===
Magneton first appeared in ''[[EP030|Sparks Fly for Magnemite]]''. They, along with {{p|Magnemite}}, saved {{Ash}} and company from a {{p|Grimer}} attack.

A Magnemite that belonged to [[Ethan]] in ''[[EP101|Get Along, Little Pokémon]]'' evolved into a Magneton to save Ash and his {{AP|Pikachu}} from [[Team Rocket]].

Several Magneton attacked the Pokémon Center in ''[[EP195|The Poké Spokesman]]''.

[[Vincent|Jackson]] used a {{shiny2}} Magneton against Ash during the [[Silver Conference]] in ''[[EP268|Tie One On!]]''.

An army of {{p|Magnemite}} and Magneton appeared in ''[[Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'' under the ownership of the main villain, [[Zero]].

===Minor appearances===
A group of Magnemite, and a Magneton, appeared as security guards in ''[[EP199|Current Events]]''. Ash was attacked by the Magnemite, but when Ash retaliated with [[Ash's Chikorita|his Chikorita]], a Magneton showed up and attacked.

A Magneton is shown in ''[[The Rivals]]'' and ''[[Pokémon World (song)|Pokémon World]]''.

[[Wattson]] used a Magneton in his brief Gym Battle with Ash in ''[[AG040|Watt's with Wattson?]]''.

In ''[[AG058|All Torkoal, No Play!]]'', Magneton was one of the {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon in [[Steel Valley]] picking on a wild {{AP|Torkoal}}.

Magneton is one of the unseen Pokémon [[Sho]] offers to trade with Ash in ''[[DP074|Pika and Goliath]]''.

A group of Magneton appeared in ''[[DP111|Saving the World From Ruins!]]''.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Special manga===
Magneton makes a cameo aboard the [[S.S. Anne]] in ''[[PS010|Danger: High Voltorb]]'' as one of [[Lt. Surge]]'s Pokémon ready to attack {{Special|Red}}. However, it debuts in the next round, ''[[PS011|Buzz Off, Electabuzz!]]'', when some of them torture Red with {{m|Thunderbolt}}. Lt. Surge has a quad of Magneton, capable of using electromagnetism to create a tetrahedral aura. This aura is able to ferry people as well as attack and trap anything within, as seen in Volumes [[Pokémon Special volume 3|3]], [[Pokémon Special volume 10|10]] and [[Pokémon Special volume 12|12]].

==Trivia==
* The original English name for Magneton was planned to be "Recoil."
* Although it is said that Magneton is made up of three Magnemite, there is no evidence of this in the anime. In the only anime episode to date showing a Magnemite evolution, ''[[EP101|Get Along, Little Pokémon]]'', when [[Ethan]]'s Magnemite #6 evolves into Magneton, it "creates" two Magnemite during evolution, instead of getting together with two real Magnemite. This is similar to the games.
** However, in [[Pokémon Snap]], a Magneton ''is'' created by three Magnemite.
** Also, when two Magnemite first get stuck together in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|original Mystery Dungeon games]], they mention how three Magnemite are supposed to come together to evolve.
* Magneton is supposedly composed of three Magnemite; however, after evolution, it becomes 10 times heavier. Magnemite weighs 13.2 lbs, while Magneton weighs 132.0 lbs.
* Magneton's sprites in the handheld games show the three Magnemite that make it up as being connected together; however, in the console games, they are shown as three separate Magnemite floating in a triangular formation with each other, only touching when they attack.
* Despite Magnemite and Magneton's various Pokédex entries saying they can cause damage to any electronic devices in their vicinity, in all of their appearances in the anime, they have not disrupted any electronic devices. In fact, the opposite happens in the episodes in which this evolution family has been the focus, and they actually ''save'' towns.
* Magneton's {{2v2|Red|Blue}} sprite is the only instance where one of the Magnemite's faces on Magneton is not facing the same direction as the other two.
* Magnemite, along with its evolution {{p|Magneton}}, are the only Pokémon to gain another type with the debut of [[Generation II|another generation]], gaining a dual Electric/Steel typing.
* Magneton and its evolution Magnezone have National Dex numbers that differ by 380, more than any other Pokémon related by evolution.
* Magneton and its evolutionary family possess 13 resistances, more than any other Pokémon.
* Magneton can be found [[underleveled]] at level 26 in [[New Mauville]]; this also allows for {{p|Magnezone}} as low as level 27 if one is sent through Pal Park.
* Magneton and its pre-evolution {{p|Magnemite}} are two of few Pokémon that had their [[cry]] changed slightly in [[Generation III]]. This was due to Generation III utilizing a better sound effects game engine and [[Game Boy Advance|newer game system]].
* Magneton's Generation II shiny sprite shows the ends of the magnets being colored, unlike later generations' sprites.
* Magneton is one of the three Pokémon to evolve via leveling up in certain locations, the others being {{p|Eevee}} and {{p|Nosepass}}.
** Of these, Magneton and Nosepass evolve when leveled up in [[Mt. Coronet]].
** Magneton is also the only one of them who has already evolved.
* Magneton and its evolutionary chain are the only {{type2|Electric}} Pokémon to learn {{m|Zap Cannon}} naturally.
*Magneton and its evolved form Magnemite are the only Pokemon to have their fainting animations changed in the console games. In Generations 1 and 2, the Pokemon falls to pieces, which fall to the ground. In generation 3 and on, the Pokemon simply falls to the ground, all parts still attached.

===Origin===
Magneton appears to be based on the concept of a living magnet.

====Name origin====
Magneton's name may be a combination of ''{{wp|magnet}}'' and ''ton'' — indicating that it is larger than Magnemite. A magneton is also a unit of magnetic movement, and a {{wp|magnetron}} forms the core of a {{wp|microwave oven}}. The ''rare'' in ''Rarecoil'' may be a reference to the fact that some {{wp|rare earth elements}} have interesting magnetic properties, or it may simply be alluding to the fact that it is rarer than Magnemite.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Magneton
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Magneton
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 레어코일 ''Reeokoil'' - Literally ''Rare Coil'', based on its Japanese name.
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese (Hong Kong)]]: 三合一磁怪 - Literally "3-in-1 magnetic monster".
