Marshtomp (Japanese: ヌマクロー Numacraw) is a dual-type Water/Ground Pokémon.

It evolves from Mudkip starting at level 16, and evolves into Swampert starting at level 36.

Biology

Physiology

Marshtomp is based on the mudpuppy. Marshtomp is the second evolution of the Mudkip family. Marshtomp has a fin on his head, a point on the ends of both checks that are the same of Mudkip. Marshtomp has a orange belly and two fins as it's tails. Marshtomp can move through mud faster than it can through water.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Mud Shot is one of Marshtomp's special moves because they learn it when they first evolve, and is commonly used by captive and wild Marshtomp alike.

Behavior

Marshtomp can be mild mannered, but are very protective of their kind, and are known to hurl mud at foes, this trait grows fierce upon evolution.

Habitat

Marshtomp and members of its evolution family live in swamps and wetlands deep in isolated islands. They tend to dislike freshwater ponds, lakes, and riverbeds. Oddly they travel great distances to freshwater beaches to make their nests.

In the anime

Prior to Zig Zag Zangoose, Nicolai's Mudkip evolved into Marshtomp.

Ruby The surface of Marshtomp's body is enveloped by a thin, sticky film that enables it to live on land. This Pokémon plays in mud on beaches when the ocean tide is low.
Sapphire Marshtomp is much faster at traveling through mud than it is at swimming. This Pokémon's hindquarters exhibit obvious development, giving it the ability to walk on just its hind legs.
Emerald Its toughened hind legs enable it to stand upright. Because it weakens if its skin dries out, it replenishes fluids by Template:M2.

Trivia

  • Marshtomp is the only first evolved form water starter with two types.

Origin

This Pokémon is based on the mudpuppy or mudskipper.

Name origin

Marshtomp draws its name from a combination of marsh and stomp. The numa in Numacraw is probably 沼, swamp, and craw is the same as claw, since Japanese uses the same characters for both "l" and "r".

In other languages

  • German: Moorabbel
  • French: Flobio
  • Korean: 늪짱이 Neupjjang-i - Combination of 늪 (swamp) and 장이 (specialist) changed slightly.
