'''Raticate''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ラッタ''' ''Ratta'') is a {{type|Normal}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].
 
It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Rattata}} starting at [[level]] 20.
 
In [[Alola]], Raticate has a dual-type {{2t|Dark|Normal}} [[regional form]]. It evolves from {{rf|Alolan}} Rattata when [[level]]ed up at [[Time-based Evolution|night]] starting at level 20.
 
(Specifics may differ in past games. Refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data→Evolution data]] for these details.)


==Biology==
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Raticate is a large, {{wp|rodent}}-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Although it is often depicted on its hind legs, it is a quadruped. It is primarily tawny-colored with a cream underside. It has narrow black eyes, ears with ragged edges and dark insides, and large incisors that grow constantly. There are three whiskers on each side of its face, which it uses to maintain balance. It has short arms with three-fingered hands and webbed feet with three toes. The webbing on its feet allows it to swim. Its tail is long and scaly. Females will have shorter whiskers.
Raticate are much larger than Rattata, and are tawny in color. These rodents have very large teeth that grow quickly. They must often gnaw on things to keep their teeth worn down.
====Gender differences====
A female has shorter whiskers.
====Special abilities====
Their teeth are strong enough to gnaw through steel.


===Behavior===
If attacked, Raticate stands up on its hind legs, bares its fangs and shrieks in an intimidating manner at its enemy. It is willing to take on larger foes if provoked enough. Its teeth are strong enough to gnaw through steel and their constant growth means it often needs to gnaw on something, like rocks and logs. It may even chew on the walls of houses, and is capable of chewing through cinderblocks and toppling concrete buildings. As shown in [[Pokémon Sleep]], Raticate is known to sleep with a log in its teeth, gnawing at it in the process. <ref>[[Sleep style|Sleep Style Dex]]</ref>. This Pokémon typically lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|plains and savannas}}.
===Habitat===
[[Image:Grassland.gif|left|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Grassland Pokémon|Grassland Pokémon]]]]
Raticate naturally live in plains and savannas.


===Diet===
Prior to [[Generation IV]], Raticate and its pre-evolved form, {{p|Rattata}}, were the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the moves {{m|Hyper Fang}} and {{m|Super Fang}}.
{{main|Pokémon food}}
 
===Forms===
Raticate has a [[regional form]]: {{rf|Alolan}} Raticate.
 
In [[Alola]], Raticate has become heavier and darker due to its urban environment and higher calorie diet.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20170227055454/http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/alolan-raticate/ Pokémon Sun and Moon site | Alolan Raticate]</ref> Its fur is mostly black with a brown, leaf-shaped patch on its belly and brown inside its ears. Its hands, feet, cheeks, and tail are a whitish-cream color, and its hands are much smaller. It has large, puffy cheeks with four whiskers under its chin and two sprouting sideways from the top of each cheek. Its large incisors are still visible, but its eyes are now red.
 
This variant uses its nest as a food stockpile, and generally prefers to have the Alolan {{p|Rattata}} it commands to go out and forage for food while it remains in its nest and eats. It is selective in what it eats, however, only eating fresh, high-quality foods, such as fruits. Rumor has it that a certain high-class restaurant even exploits this selectivity, bringing Raticate along to buy ingredients and letting it taste test new dishes. Each Alolan Raticate has its own territory, and disputes over food and feeding grounds happen frequently. Alolan Raticate and Rattata are not native to Alola, having been brought to the region via cargo ships. Their populations grew drastically until {{p|Yungoos}} and {{p|Gumshoos}} were imported as a control measure.
 
;Totem Pokémon
A special Alolan Raticate in [[Alola]] acts as the [[Totem Pokémon]] for [[Ilima]]'s {{DL|Island challenge|trial}} in [[Verdant Cavern]]. This Raticate possesses [[Z-Power]], an energy that originates from [[Ultra Wormhole]]s and takes the form of a golden, flaring aura. The reward for defeating Totem Raticate and completing the trial is a [[Normalium Z]] (in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]'', it is a [[Darkinium Z]] instead).
 
===Evolution===
Raticate evolves from {{p|Rattata}}.


==In the anime==
{{rf|Alolan}} Raticate evolves from Alolan Rattata.
[[Image:Ash_raticate.jpg|thumb|[[Ash's Raticate]]]][[Cassidy]] has a {{TP|Cassidy|Raticate}} that for a time served in her and [[Butch]]'s motto the role that {{MTR}} serves in the motto of [[Jessie]] and [[James]].  


On the [[S.S. Anne]], {{Ash}} traded his {{AP|Butterfree}} for a {{AP|Raticate}} but traded back as the boat was sinking.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*In Pokémon Red and Blue, Raticate was classified as a rat Pokémon. However, in newer games, it was classified as a mouse. This is probably because its Japanese translation could mean either rat or mouse. This is most likely a misconception, since Raticate has a naked tail, just like a rat.
* Raticate's [[catch rate]] was 90 in [[Generation I]] and {{gen|II}}. This was changed to 127 in [[Generation III]].
* Raticate is the only Pokémon that shares its [[National Pokédex]] number with the level at which it evolves from its pre-evolved form.
* Raticate and its pre-evolved form both share their {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Pikachu}}, {{p|Raichu}}, {{p|Sandshrew}}, {{p|Sandslash}}, {{p|Pawmi}}, and {{p|Pawmo}}. They are all known as the Mouse Pokémon, though {{p|Rattata}} and Raticate were originally called the Rat Pokémon prior to [[Generation III]].
* Of all the Totem Pokémon that can be battled in Alola, Totem Raticate is one of the only two Totem Pokémon that is battled in only one game out of the two versions — in this case, {{pkmn|Sun and Moon|Moon}} and {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Moon}}. The other is Totem {{p|Gumshoos}}.
** During the cutscene before Totem Raticate's battle, it cries out {{p|Gumshoos}}'s [[cry]] instead of its own cry.
* Alolan Raticate and its pre-evolution are the only regional forms that cannot be transferred out of {{g|HOME}} into any [[Generation VIII]] or {{gen|IX}} game.
 
===Design variations===
In its [[#Sprites|sprites]] and artwork for {{game|Red and Green|s}} and {{game|Red and Blue|s}}, Raticate originally had four fingers on its front paws instead of three.

===Origin===
===Origin===
Its webbed feet, body shape, and overall design are very similar to the {{wp|coypu}}, or nutria, a semi-aquatic South American rodent.
Raticate appears to be based on a {{wp|rat}}, as well as a semi-aquatic rodent such as a {{wp|muskrat}} or a {{wp|coypu}} due to its large size and webbed feet. Its scruffy ears are similar to a {{wp|guinea pig}}.
 
Alolan Raticate 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 gluttonous behavior, ability to command groups of Rattata to steal, and hostile relationship with the detective-inspired Gumshoos are reminiscent of a stereotypical {{wp|crime boss}}. It has {{wp|cheek pouches}} similar to {{wp|chipmunks}} and {{wp|hamsters}}.
 
====Name origin====
====Name origin====
Raticate's name seems to be a combination of ''{{wp|rat}}'' and ''eradicate'', meaning to destroy or exterminate. ''Ratta'' seems to be derived from ''rat'' alone.
Raticate may be a combination of ''{{wp|rat}}'' and ''eradicate'' (to destroy or exterminate) or ''masticate'' (to chew).

Raticate (Japanese: ラッタ Ratta) is a Normal-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

It evolves from Rattata starting at level 20.

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

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

Biology

Raticate is a large, rodent-like Pokémon. Although it is often depicted on its hind legs, it is a quadruped. It is primarily tawny-colored with a cream underside. It has narrow black eyes, ears with ragged edges and dark insides, and large incisors that grow constantly. There are three whiskers on each side of its face, which it uses to maintain balance. It has short arms with three-fingered hands and webbed feet with three toes. The webbing on its feet allows it to swim. Its tail is long and scaly. Females will have shorter whiskers.

If attacked, Raticate stands up on its hind legs, bares its fangs and shrieks in an intimidating manner at its enemy. It is willing to take on larger foes if provoked enough. Its teeth are strong enough to gnaw through steel and their constant growth means it often needs to gnaw on something, like rocks and logs. It may even chew on the walls of houses, and is capable of chewing through cinderblocks and toppling concrete buildings. As shown in Pokémon Sleep, Raticate is known to sleep with a log in its teeth, gnawing at it in the process. [1]. This Pokémon typically lives in plains and savannas.

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

Forms

Raticate has a regional form: Alolan Raticate.

In Alola, Raticate has become heavier and darker due to its urban environment and higher calorie diet.[2] Its fur is mostly black with a brown, leaf-shaped patch on its belly and brown inside its ears. Its hands, feet, cheeks, and tail are a whitish-cream color, and its hands are much smaller. It has large, puffy cheeks with four whiskers under its chin and two sprouting sideways from the top of each cheek. Its large incisors are still visible, but its eyes are now red.

This variant uses its nest as a food stockpile, and generally prefers to have the Alolan Rattata it commands to go out and forage for food while it remains in its nest and eats. It is selective in what it eats, however, only eating fresh, high-quality foods, such as fruits. Rumor has it that a certain high-class restaurant even exploits this selectivity, bringing Raticate along to buy ingredients and letting it taste test new dishes. Each Alolan Raticate has its own territory, and disputes over food and feeding grounds happen frequently. Alolan Raticate and Rattata are not native to Alola, having been brought to the region via cargo ships. Their populations grew drastically until Yungoos and Gumshoos were imported as a control measure.

Totem Pokémon

A special Alolan Raticate in Alola acts as the Totem Pokémon for Ilima's trial in Verdant Cavern. This Raticate possesses Z-Power, an energy that originates from Ultra Wormholes and takes the form of a golden, flaring aura. The reward for defeating Totem Raticate and completing the trial is a Normalium Z (in Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon, it is a Darkinium Z instead).

Evolution

Raticate evolves from Rattata.

Alolan Raticate evolves from Alolan Rattata.

Trivia

  • Raticate's catch rate was 90 in Generation I and II. This was changed to 127 in Generation III.
  • Raticate is the only Pokémon that shares its National Pokédex number with the level at which it evolves from its pre-evolved form.
  • Raticate and its pre-evolved form both share their category with Pikachu, Raichu, Sandshrew, Sandslash, Pawmi, and Pawmo. They are all known as the Mouse Pokémon, though Rattata and Raticate were originally called the Rat Pokémon prior to Generation III.
  • Of all the Totem Pokémon that can be battled in Alola, Totem Raticate is one of the only two Totem Pokémon that is battled in only one game out of the two versions — in this case, Moon and Ultra Moon. The other is Totem Gumshoos.
    • During the cutscene before Totem Raticate's battle, it cries out Gumshoos's cry instead of its own cry.
  • Alolan Raticate and its pre-evolution are the only regional forms that cannot be transferred out of Pokémon HOME into any Generation VIII or IX game.

Design variations

In its sprites and artwork for Pokémon Red and Green and Pokémon Red and Blue, Raticate originally had four fingers on its front paws instead of three.

Origin

Raticate appears to be based on a rat, as well as a semi-aquatic rodent such as a muskrat or a coypu due to its large size and webbed feet. Its scruffy ears are similar to a guinea pig.

Alolan Raticate 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 gluttonous behavior, ability to command groups of Rattata to steal, and hostile relationship with the detective-inspired Gumshoos are reminiscent of a stereotypical crime boss. It has cheek pouches similar to chipmunks and hamsters.

Name origin

Raticate may be a combination of rat and eradicate (to destroy or exterminate) or masticate (to chew).

Ratta may be derived from ラット ratto (rat).
