Clamperl is an aquatic Pokémon that makes its home on the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|seafloor}}. Its bivalve shell is dark blue with a silver rim along the inner edges. The shell is used to clamp down on prey, as well as for protection. A fully-grown shell will have nicks and scratches all over. Inside of the shell is a fragile, light blue body composed of six spherical extensions with a pink, pearl-like head in the center. There is a circular white patch on each cheek. | Clamperl is an aquatic Pokémon that makes its home on the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|seafloor}}.

Clamperl (Japanese: パールル Pearlulu) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.
It evolves into Huntail when traded holding a Deep Sea Tooth or into Gorebyss when traded holding a Deep Sea Scale.
Biology
Clamperl is an aquatic Pokémon that makes its home on the seafloor. Its bivalve shell is dark blue with a silver rim along the inner edges. The shell is used to clamp down on prey, as well as for protection. A fully-grown shell will have nicks and scratches all over. Inside of the shell is a fragile, light blue body composed of six spherical extensions with a pink, pearl-like head in the center. There is a circular white patch on each cheek.
The pearls produced by this Pokémon amplify psychic power, and may be blue as seen in the anime. These pearls are also 10 times more valuable than pearls produced by Shellder. It is carnivorous, clamping down on prey without letting go until it stops moving. When it is close to evolution, Clamperl will become too big to fit inside its shell.

Two Clamperl appeared in The Evolutionary War!, under the ownership of Nancy and Keith. It was revealed that Trainers who live on the A-B-C Islands have a rivalry over which Clamperl evolution was stronger.
