Kabuto (Japanese: カブト Kabuto) is an extinct Rock/Water-type Pokémon which can be revived from a fossil.
Biology
Kabuto is a fossil Pokémon no longer found in the wild, and must be resurrected from a Dome Fossil.
Physiology
Kabuto is similar to a shellfish with a tan shell. There are two small black dots, which are a second pair of eyes, on the front of its shell. Kabuto uses these eyes when it hides deeper in its shell to protect itself from harm. Its black eyes sense what is going on outside of the shell while it is hiding. Underneath its shell is mostly black, with two red eyes, which glow in the dark, and six yellow-tan legs.
It mostly attacks using its claws, which can scratch or drain energy.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Kabuto is more adept at regular attacks, but it can use Water, Ice, Ground and Rock powers to its advantage as well. It supposedly also has oils in its shells which can grant immortality; in the Orange Islands, many of their fossils revived in the light of a red moon.
Behavior
Much like a turtle or pill bug, if Kabuto is flipped over onto its back, it becomes defenseless an cannot flip itself back over on its own.
Habitat
All the Kabuto's died out millions of years ago, but a few live samples have been found deep in the ocean in underwater caves, and in deep damp caves. But most were ressurected through bringing a Helix Fossil back to life.
Diet
Main article: Pokémon food
In the anime
Kabuto was one of the fossil Pokémon that attack Ash and Team Rocket until being scared off by Aerodactyl in Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon.
In Shell Shock, a "deranged old man" was saying that an island full of Kabuto fossils would sink once the moon casted a red glow. He was right, the fossils came to life and the island collapsed; since the fossils kept the island together.
