Cradily (Japanese: ユレイドル Yuradle) is a dual-type Rock/Grass Fossil Pokémon.
It evolves from Lileep starting at level 40, after it is revived from a Root Fossil.
Biology
Physiology
Cradily is a mostly green Pokémon that seems to resemble a plant, with various yellow markings on its head, neck, and torso. Although the circular yellow markings on its head appear to be its eyes, Cradily's true eyes are yellow half-circles covered by a mask-like section of black on the front of its head. It also has eight pink tentacles that surround its neck at the base of its head and resemble petals on a flower. Its body is short and squat, with four stubby leg-like growths. Cradily is an ancient Pokémon no longer found in the wild, and must be evolved from a Lileep resurrected from a Root Fossil.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Cradily's strength is far greater than that of its pre-evolution. Before its extinction, it was able to roam the seafloor in search of its prey, and upon finding it, Cradily used its massive tentacles to grip and then eat its prey. Its tentacles secrete corrosive acid that it uses to melt its prey.
Behavior
In ancient times, Cradily moved around the seafloor with stealth in search of its prey. It was a powerful hunter, and was very vicious to its prey while preparing to eat it. It made its nests in shallow waters of the warm seas.
Habitat
Before its extinction, Cradily inhabited environments adjacent to bodies of water, such as seas or oceans, particularly in warm areas. Its personal nest was often made in the shoals of the sea. It was a common sight on beaches when the tides receded.
To prevent being washed out by rough tides, Cradily utilized its body as an anchor.
Root Fossils, from which this Pokémon is resurrected, have been found in the Hoenn and Sinnoh regions.
Diet
- Main article: Pokémon food
Cradily appear to have once been carnivores, as it both hunted and ingested prey found in seafloors or its immediate surroundings using its eight tentacles.
In the anime
Major appearances
Cradily was first seen in Where's Armaldo? on Wales Island.
Minor appearances
One made another cameo in Lucario and the Mystery of Mew living in the Tree of Beginning. Also, one appeared in the opening of the movie.
Cradily also made a small appearance in Dealing With Defensive Types! with an Armaldo.

Trivia
- Cradily's Shiny colors resemble its pre-evolution's ordinary colors in Generation III and IV.
- Despite being the Barnacle Pokémon, and being confirmed to live in water, Cradily is not a Water-type Pokémon. It shares this trait with its pre-evolution Lileep, its Fossil counterparts Anorith and Armaldo, as well as Tynamo, Eelektrik and Eelektross.
- The four Fossil Pokémon are capable of crossing water in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series, despite not being Water-type.
- Cradily consists of the two types with most weaknesses, Grass and Rock, but it has only four weaknesses.
- Cradily is the only Pokémon with Pokéathlon stats where each one is a different level.
- In Generation III and IV, Cradily's tentacles are orange. This was changed in Generation V to pink as it is in the official Ken Sugimori artwork. Its Shiny form retains the orange color.
