Feraligatr (Japanese: オーダイル Ordile) is a Water-type Pokémon.

Biology

Physiology

Feraligatr are big, bulky Pokémon, more used for swimming than for walking on land. When they do, they try to crawl on all fours in order to move faster. However, when they are hunting or fighting, they are surprisingly agile and fast. The fact that Feraligatr are cold-blooded Pokémon means that they need to be where they can adjust their body temperatures accordingly. Feraligatr have large, powerful jaws which are able to cause heavy damage.

Gender differences

None noticeable.

Special abilities

Feraligatr's jaws have the ability to lock in place like its pre-evolutions. In combination with their sheer muscle power, this ability can cause massive damage to a Pokémon.

Behavior

Feraligatr are notoriously territorial, coming together only to breed. Every spring, swamps and marshlands resound with the rumbling mating calls produced by male Feraligatr looking for females. If there is a dispute between two males, the two will enter into a contest of roaring and bearing their fangs, hoping to make the other back down. Upon mating, the male aids the female in building a nest out of leaves and other vegetation. As the plants rot, they produce heat to help incubate the eggs. The mother jealously guards the nest from anything that comes near, not even leaving to find food. Instead, she lives off of fat reserves stored up before the mating season began. Once the eggs hatch, she leads the newborn Totodile down to the water. Feraligatr are very good mothers and watch over their young until the babies are large enough to look after themselves.^{[citation needed]}

Habitat

Water's-edge Pokémon

Feraligatr are extremely rare in the wild. They live near water with the rest of their evolution family.

Diet

Main article: Pokémon food

Feraligatr are card-carrying carnivores. Their preferred hunting method is to hide underwater with only eyes and nostrils above the surface, waiting for prey to come to the water's edge. They attack with a sudden burst of speed and clamp their powerful jaws down on a surprised victim before it has time to react. Once the Feraligatr bites it will lock its jaws, and the prey will be secured. Then, the Feraligatr will violently shake its head and begin to tear off chunks of its prey to swallow.

Trivia

• On a height basis, Feraligatr is the tallest final form of a starter Pokémon standing at an amazing 7 feet and 7 inches (2.3 meters).
• Feraligatr is also the earliest reached final form of a starter Pokémon, evolving at level 30.
• In Silver and Gold, Feraligatr's skin was dark green. It was later changed to blue in the later versions.
• Despite being the Big Jaw Pokémon, Feraligatr cannot learn Crunch.

Origin

Like Totodile and Croconaw, Feraligatr is a crocodylian. Appearance-wise, it's an alligator.

Name origin

Feraligatr draws its name from a combination of feral and alligator. Its Japanese name may contain 王 ō, king, 皇 ō, emperor, or 大 ō, large, and dile is a reference to crocodiles. The German name Impergator is a combination of imperial and Alligator. Its French name, Aligatueur, comes from alligator and tueur.

The lack of a vowel between the T and R in Feraligatr is due to the ten character limit on Pokémon names that also affects Victreebel.

In other languages

• German: Impergator
• French: Aligatueur
• Korean: 장크로다일 Jangkeurodail
