Skarmory (Japanese: エアームド Airmd) is a dual-type Steel/Flying Pokémon.
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.
Biology
Skarmory is a silver-gray, avian Pokémon with a long, metallic blue neck, legs, and tail. It has yellow eyes, a pointed beak with several sharp teeth, and a triangular crest on its head. There are red feathers under the sheaths that cover its sharp wings, and each feather can be moved independently. Its wings are actually hollow, allowing them to travel up to 180 mph. Its feet have three toes on them, two in front and one in back, and its tail has hooked ends.
Its steel wings become tattered and bashed in from repeated battles, but once a year the battered wings grow back completely. This process restores the cutting edges. Its feathers are sharp enough to be used as blades. Its skin and feathers are solid because it lives and is raised in very harsh conditions. Its nests are usually found in thorn bushes, where continual scratching of its skin will eventually harden it into an iron-like state.
In the anime

Trivia
- No other Pokémon has the same type combination as Skarmory.
- Skarmory can be seen as a parallel to Mantine. Both of them are Flying-type Generation II Pokémon. Skarmory is exclusive to Pokémon Silver, FireRed, and SoulSilver, while Mantine is exclusive to Pokémon Gold, LeafGreen and HeartGold. Furthermore, neither of the two had any evolutions prior to Generation IV.
- Skarmory has kidnapped more Pokémon and people in the anime than any other Pokémon, with the possible exception of Meowth. It has kidnapped Jessie's Wobbuffet, May, an Azumarill, and Meowth in the regular series, and it also kidnapped Diglett, Pichu and Pikachu in the Mystery Dungeon special.
- Skarmory has the highest base Defense of all Flying-type Pokémon.
- Skarmory's number in the Johto Pokédex and New Unova Pokédex are the same: 203.
Origin
Skarmory has much in common with the Andean Condor and also shares characteristics of pteranodons, and cranes, birds which are held in high esteem in Japan. It is also similar to many mythological, metallic birds such as the Stymphalian Birds, the Gagana, and the Alicanto. Skarmory is also believed to be based on an armored knight.
Name origin
Skarmory is a combination of sky and armory or armor. It may also include scar, given how its sharp body could easily wound its prey and even leave them with scars; scar may also refer to Skarmory's own skin, being cut repeatedly in brambles when it is young and building up the harder, callused or scar-like tissue which makes up its steely hide as an adult.
Airmd may be based on air or a pun on armed or armored.
