'''Rattata''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''コラッタ''' ''Koratta'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].


It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Raticate}} starting at [[level]] 20.
It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Raticate}} starting at [[level]] 20.


It is also the only possible [[starter Pokémon]] in [[Pokémon Rumble]].  
In [[Alola]], Rattata has a dual-type {{2t|Dark|Normal}} [[regional form]]. It evolves into {{rf|Alolan}} Raticate when [[level]]ed up at [[Time-based Evolution|night]] starting at level 20.


==Biology==
(Specifics may differ in past games. Refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data&rarr;Evolution data]] for these details.)
===Physiology===
Rattata is a small, but unspecialized rodent. Its most notable feature is its large teeth. Like most rodents their teeth grow continuously throughout its life, and must be constantly worn down by gnawing. It has long whiskers and a long, slightly curled tail. Rattata has purple fur on its back, and cream colored fur on its stomach. This coloration (dark on top, light on bottom) is a common protective mechanism for many small animals.
====Gender differences====
A female has shorter whiskers.


====Special abilities====
It is the player's [[List of the player's first Pokémon#Pokémon Rumble series|first]] [[Toy Pokémon]] in [[Pokémon Rumble]] and [[Pokémon Rumble Rush]].
Rattata have very basic survival needs, permitting them to thrive in nearly any environment. Because they reproduce so quickly, a pair of Rattata can quickly colonize an area. Rattata are also very quick, and their teeth grow constantly.


===Behavior===
==Biology==
Rattata have a fast metabolism. As a result, it spends most of its fast-paced life looking for food. Thanks to their sharp fangs, they are able to eat nearly anything. However, because they constantly need to chew on hard material to keep their teeth at a manageable length, it is hard to tell if they are actually eating something, or merely gnawing on it. When they are threatened, Rattata can deliver a powerful bite. Cautious to the extreme, its hardy vitality lets it live in any kind of enviornment. They are a common sight in many places, and can become a nuisance due to their rapid reproductive rate. It is said that for every one Rattata, forty other are hidden somewhere. Most young {{pkmn|Trainer}}s will train Rattata due to their easy accessibility.
Rattata is a small, quadrupedal {{wp|rodent}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. It has purple fur with a cream-colored face, paws, and underbelly. It has narrow eyes containing white sclera and pupil with red irises, rounded ears with cream-colored insides, and a single whisker on each cheek. Its long tail is tightly curled at the end. Its most notable feature is its large teeth. Like most rodents, its teeth grow continuously throughout its life and must be worn down by gnawing. This also ensures that Rattata is not awoken by the sound of its grinding teeth while sleeping. Females will have shorter whiskers.


===Habitat===
Rattata can live wherever it can find food, which it searches for most of the day. Thanks to its sharp fangs, it is able to chew on nearly anything. When it is threatened, Rattata can deliver a powerful bite. Rattata constantly keep their ears up and will immediately scurry away from the slightest sound. {{p|Furret}} is the natural predator of Rattata. Its hardiness lets it live in many environments, although it mainly lives on {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|plains and savannas}}. Because it reproduces so quickly, a pair of Rattata can quickly colonize an area. As shown in [[Pokémon Sleep]], Rattata is known to sleep sometimes with a log in its mouth.<ref>[[Sleep style|Sleep Style Dex]]</ref>
[[Image:Grassland.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon}}]]
Rattata naturally live in plains and savannas. However, they are found in most areas due to their ability to survive nearly any environment. They are very common in [[Kanto]], [[Johto]] and [[Sinnoh]].


===Diet===
Prior to [[Generation IV]], Rattata and its evolved form, {{p|Raticate}}, were the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the moves {{m|Hyper Fang}} and {{m|Super Fang}}.
{{main|Pokémon food}}


Rattata are not picky when it comes to food, and will eat nearly anything edible. However, they're sometimes found in possession of the {{OBP|Chilan Berry|Generation IV}}.
===Forms===
Rattata has a [[regional form]]: {{rf|Alolan}} Rattata.


In the [[EP001|first episode]] of the anime series, Ash's Pokédex also states that Rattata "likes cheese, nuts, fruit and berries... and will steal food from [[Ash Ketchum|''stupid'' travelers]]."
Rattata are non-native to [[Alola]] and arrived in cargo ships. The Rattata population in Alola was booming until {{p|Yungoos}} and {{p|Gumshoos}} were imported as a control measure. In order to avoid these new predators, Rattata altered its habits. It moved to more urban areas, became nocturnal, and formed large nests led by {{p|Raticate}}.<ref>[http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/alolan-rattata/ Pokémon Sun and Moon site | Alolan Rattata]</ref> Alolan Rattata searches out fresh food by smell and ignores anything spoiled. It has even been known to sneak into people's homes to find food. It has dark gray fur and grayish-purple ear insides. There are two tufts of fur on each ear and near the tip of its tail. Its long, thin whiskers are also replaced by shorter, thicker tufts of fur. The line where its cream underbelly meets its gray fur is ragged instead of smooth. Unlike its Kantonian form, it is sometimes shown as bipedal rather than being in fours.


==In the anime==
===Evolution===
[[Image:Rattatanime.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Rattata in the anime]]
Rattata evolves into {{p|Raticate}}.
===Major appearances===
Rattata debuted in the [[EP001|first episode]] of the [[Pokémon anime|series]], trying to steal food from {{Ash}}'s bag.


[[A.J.]] has three Rattata, as shown in ''[[EP008|The Path to the Pokémon League]]''.
{{rf|Alolan}} Rattata evolves into Alolan Raticate.


{{an|Casey}} also has a Rattata, whose only appearance was in ''[[EP118|The Double Trouble Header]]''. It is unknown what became of this Rattata in her later appearances.
(For specifics on this Pokémon's Evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data&rarr;Evolution data]].)

===Origin===
===Origin===
It is simply based on a real life {{wp|rat}}, the only difference is that Rattata is purple.
Rattata appears to be based on a {{wp|rat}} or a {{wp|mouse}}. It may draw visual inspiration from hairy-tailed {{wp|Pack rat|packrats}}.
 
Alolan Rattata appears to be based on the {{wp|black rat}}, {{wp|brown rat}}, or {{wp|Polynesian rat}}, all of which are {{wp|invasive species}} in {{wp|Hawaii}}. Their attacks on sugar cane fields caused the locals to import the {{wp|Small Indian mongoose}} into Hawaii as a form of pest control, explaining the relationship between {{p|Yungoos}}/{{p|Gumshoos}} and Rattata/Raticate. Its thieving behavior and tendency to work in groups under the command of a Raticate are reminiscent of a {{wp|gangster}}. The shape of its whiskers resembles the knot of a ''hokkamuri'' — a cloth wrapped around the head and tied under nose as a form of disguise, typically worn by thieves in Japanese media for comedic effect.


====Name origin====
====Name origin====
Rattata's English name simply incorporates  the word ''rat'' into it. The etymology of ''tata'' is most likely a combination of ''rat'' and ''attack'', especially when compared to its prototype name "Rattatak" [http://www.reocities.com/Tokyo/Fuji/4362/019RATTATAK.JPG]. Its Japanese name ''Koratta'' is derived from the prefix 小 ''ko'', small, and ''rat''.
Rattata may be a combination of ''rat'' and ''attack'', as indicated by its [[Pokémon Red and Green beta#Localization-specific information|beta name]]. It may also incorporate ''rat-a-tat'' (a tapping sound).
 
Koratta may be a combination of 子 ''ko'' (child) or 小 ''ko'' (small) and ''rat''.

Rattata (Japanese: コラッタ Koratta) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

It evolves into Raticate starting at level 20.

In Alola, Rattata has a dual-type Dark/Normal regional form. It evolves into Alolan Raticate when leveled up at night starting at level 20.

(Specifics may differ in past games. Refer to Game data→Evolution data for these details.)

It is the player's first Toy Pokémon in Pokémon Rumble and Pokémon Rumble Rush.

Biology

Rattata is a small, quadrupedal rodent Pokémon. It has purple fur with a cream-colored face, paws, and underbelly. It has narrow eyes containing white sclera and pupil with red irises, rounded ears with cream-colored insides, and a single whisker on each cheek. Its long tail is tightly curled at the end. Its most notable feature is its large teeth. Like most rodents, its teeth grow continuously throughout its life and must be worn down by gnawing. This also ensures that Rattata is not awoken by the sound of its grinding teeth while sleeping. Females will have shorter whiskers.

Rattata can live wherever it can find food, which it searches for most of the day. Thanks to its sharp fangs, it is able to chew on nearly anything. When it is threatened, Rattata can deliver a powerful bite. Rattata constantly keep their ears up and will immediately scurry away from the slightest sound. Furret is the natural predator of Rattata. Its hardiness lets it live in many environments, although it mainly lives on plains and savannas. Because it reproduces so quickly, a pair of Rattata can quickly colonize an area. As shown in Pokémon Sleep, Rattata is known to sleep sometimes with a log in its mouth.[1]

Prior to Generation IV, Rattata and its evolved form, Raticate, were the only known Pokémon capable of learning the moves Hyper Fang and Super Fang.

Forms

Rattata has a regional form: Alolan Rattata.

Rattata are non-native to Alola and arrived in cargo ships. The Rattata population in Alola was booming until Yungoos and Gumshoos were imported as a control measure. In order to avoid these new predators, Rattata altered its habits. It moved to more urban areas, became nocturnal, and formed large nests led by Raticate.[2] Alolan Rattata searches out fresh food by smell and ignores anything spoiled. It has even been known to sneak into people's homes to find food. It has dark gray fur and grayish-purple ear insides. There are two tufts of fur on each ear and near the tip of its tail. Its long, thin whiskers are also replaced by shorter, thicker tufts of fur. The line where its cream underbelly meets its gray fur is ragged instead of smooth. Unlike its Kantonian form, it is sometimes shown as bipedal rather than being in fours.

Evolution

Rattata evolves into Raticate.

Alolan Rattata evolves into Alolan Raticate.

Alolan Rattata
Sun With its incisors, it gnaws through doors and infiltrates people's homes. Then, with a twitch of its whiskers, it steals whatever food it finds.
Moon When the sun goes down, it becomes active. It runs around town on a chase for good food for the boss of its nest—Raticate.
Ultra Sun It shows no interest in anything that isn't fresh. If you take it shopping with you, it will help you pick out ingredients.
Ultra Moon Night after night, they sneak into people's homes seeking food. A massive outbreak of them has become an issue of public concern.
Let's Go Pikachu Its whiskers provide it with a keen sense of smell, enabling it to pick up the scent of hidden food and locate it instantly.

Trivia

Origin

Rattata appears to be based on a rat or a mouse. It may draw visual inspiration from hairy-tailed packrats.

Alolan Rattata appears to be based on the black rat, brown rat, or Polynesian rat, all of which are invasive species in Hawaii. Their attacks on sugar cane fields caused the locals to import the Small Indian mongoose into Hawaii as a form of pest control, explaining the relationship between Yungoos/Gumshoos and Rattata/Raticate. Its thieving behavior and tendency to work in groups under the command of a Raticate are reminiscent of a gangster. The shape of its whiskers resembles the knot of a hokkamuri — a cloth wrapped around the head and tied under nose as a form of disguise, typically worn by thieves in Japanese media for comedic effect.

Name origin

Rattata may be a combination of rat and attack, as indicated by its beta name. It may also incorporate rat-a-tat (a tapping sound).

Koratta may be a combination of 子 ko (child) or 小 ko (small) and rat.
