==Biology==
==Biology==
Durant's steel body is notable for its three distinct sections. Its Abdomen is dark gray with an ovoid shape. It has a light gray band wrapping around the middle with two circles resembling rivets near a jagged seam. Durant's thorax, its middle section, is slightly smaller, but identical in design with its abdomen, the only difference being one circle instead of two. Its head is spherical in shape containing the same light gray wrap design as its body, but it wraps from front to back. On each side of its head are large red eyes with hollow black pupils. It has two round mandibles that it uses to grab things and feed itself. The mandibles are attached below its eyes and sit in front of its horizontally opening mouth. Atop its head are two long antennae, each topped with small spheres. Durant has six black legs sprouting from its thorax. Each leg has one claw at its tip, except the front legs which each have two.

Durant's thorax is slightly smaller, but identical in design with its abdomen. The only difference being one circle instead of two. Its head is spherical, containing the same light gray wrap design as its body. However, it wraps from front to back on the head. On each side of its head are large red eyes with hollow black pupils. Durant has two round mandibles that it uses to grab things and feed itself. The mandibles are attached below its eyes and are situated in front of its horizontally opening mouth. Atop its head are two long antennae, each tipped with small spheres. Durant has six black legs sprouting from its thorax. Each leg has one claw at its tip, except the front legs that each have two.
 
Durant is extremely territorial. It only lives in colonies and digs mazes underground designed to be as complicated as possible. It grows steel armor to protect itself from its natural predator, {{p|Heatmor}}. When attacked, Durant gather in groups to attack as a whole to keep Heatmor away. As seen [[BW074|in the anime]], Durant prefers to eat vegetation, namely leaves. It will attack swiftly and aggressively if bothered, but will not pursue intruders once outside of its colony.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Durant being the prey of {{p|Heatmor}} is reflected in their [[type]]s.
<!--Do NOT mention Durant being a possible reference to Kevin Durant. That is a coincidence and is not notable.-->
* Durant has the highest {{stat|Speed}} base stat of all {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.
* Durant and {{p|Heatmor}} were both designed by [[Ken Sugimori]].<ref name=ND205>''Nintendo Dream'' Vol. 205, May 2011 ([https://web.archive.org/web/20110402003550/http://shellspider.blog101.fc2.com/blog-entry-562.html Shellspider's blog (Japanese)], [http://lavacutcontent.com/ken-sugimori-nintendo-dream/ Translation by Dr. Lava])</ref>
* Durant supposedly developed their metal armor to resist Heatmor's attacks, but due to the {{t|Steel}} [[type]]'s weakness to {{type|Fire}} attacks, the Durant have instead made themselves more vulnerable.
* Durant and Heatmor have the same leveling rate, catch rate, hatch time, base experience yield, and base stat total.
* Durant is the only Steel-type {{DL|List of Pokémon by shape|Pokémon with an insectoid body}}.
* Durant's [[Hidden Ability]], {{a|Truant}}, may be a reference to scientific research showing that some ants are lazy, while its second standard [[Ability]], {{a|Hustle}}, may be a reference to hard-working ants.


===Origin===
===Origin===
Durant is based on an {{wp|ant}}, possibly the {{wp|Argentine ant}}, as its jaw is similar to Durant's. Its coloration may be based on the natural silver coloration of the silver spiny ant (''Polyrhachis sp.'').
Durant is based on an {{wp|ant}}.<ref name=ND205 /> It may specifically be based on the {{wp|Odontomachus|trap-jaw ant}} for its prominent jaws, or either the silver spiny sugar ant (''{{wp|Polyrhachis}} schlueteri'') or the {{wp|Saharan silver ant}} (''Cataglyphis bombycina'') for their silver colorations. Its {{type|Steel}} might have been chosen to be weak to its rival anteater Pokémon's type, {{p|Heatmor}}, which is {{type|Fire}} and has tongue made out of flames.

Durant (Japanese: アイアント Aiant) is a dual-type Bug/Steel Pokémon introduced in Generation V.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

Biology

Durant is an insectoid Pokémon with a steel body that has three distinct sections. Its ovoid abdomen is dark gray with a light gray band wrapping around the middle and two circles resembling rivets near a jagged seam. Durant's thorax is slightly smaller, but identical in design with its abdomen. The only difference being one circle instead of two. Its head is spherical, containing the same light gray wrap design as its body. However, it wraps from front to back on the head. On each side of its head are large red eyes with hollow black pupils. Durant has two round mandibles that it uses to grab things and feed itself. The mandibles are attached below its eyes and are situated in front of its horizontally opening mouth. Atop its head are two long antennae, each tipped with small spheres. Durant has six black legs sprouting from its thorax. Each leg has one claw at its tip, except the front legs that each have two.

Durant is extremely territorial. It only lives in colonies and digs mazes underground designed to be as complicated as possible. It grows steel armor to protect itself from its natural predator Heatmor. When they are under attack, Durant gathers in groups to attack as a whole to keep Heatmor away. They also gather together when protecting their eggs from Sandaconda. As seen in the anime, Durant prefers to eat vegetation, namely leaves. It will attack swiftly and aggressively if bothered, but will not pursue intruders once outside of its colony.

Trivia

  • Durant and Heatmor were both designed by Ken Sugimori.[1]
  • Durant supposedly developed their metal armor to resist Heatmor's attacks, but due to the Steel type's weakness to Fire-type attacks, the Durant have instead made themselves more vulnerable.
  • Durant and Heatmor have the same leveling rate, catch rate, hatch time, base experience yield, and base stat total.
  • Durant is the only Steel-type Pokémon with an insectoid body.
  • Durant's Hidden Ability, Truant, may be a reference to scientific research showing that some ants are lazy, while its second standard Ability, Hustle, may be a reference to hard-working ants.

Origin

Durant is based on an ant.[1] It may specifically be based on the trap-jaw ant for its prominent jaws, or either the silver spiny sugar ant (Polyrhachis schlueteri) or the Saharan silver ant (Cataglyphis bombycina) for their silver colorations. Its Steel-type might have been chosen to be weak to its rival anteater Pokémon's type, Heatmor, which is Fire-type and has tongue made out of flames.

Name origin

Durant may be a combination of durable or durus (Latin for hard) and ant.

Aiant may be a combination of アイアン aian (iron) and ant.
