Cubone (Japanese: カラカラ Karakara) is a Ground-type Pokémon.

It evolves into Marowak starting at level 28.

Biology

Cubone with its face partially revealed

Physiology

Cubone is a small Pokémon that stands up on two legs. Its golden-brown hide covers its arms, legs, tail, and most of its body, including both dorsal spikes. Cubone’s belly is a very light brown. Two small claws, one on each hand, serve as thumbs for Cubone, and two large nails make up its toes. On its head, Cubone wears the skull of its dead mother, so much of its actual face has never actually been seen. The skull is worn like a helmet in such a way that the only visible part of Cubone’s face is its eyes and a small area surrounding them. Cubone's eyes are triangular and white with black irises. The skull has two rounded horns on the top of its head, and under the skull, Cubone has a brown snout, with two fangs protruding from its mouth.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

The exceedingly small Cubone survives only through the immense skill it possesses in wielding its bone as a weapon. Though a naturally simple Pokémon, Cubone can be taught Ice- and Fire-type attacks through the technology of Technical Machines. Cubone is a Ground-type Pokémon, however the only Ground-type attacks Cubone learns by leveling up are Bone Club, Bonemerang, and Bone Rush, which are all exclusive to Cubone and its evolution Marowak, except for Bone Rush which can also be learned by Lucario and Mandibuzz.

Behavior

It is called the Lonely Pokémon because of its tendency to keep to itself and avoid sociality. It was apparently traumatized by the death of its mother, and has now entirely removed itself from society. Cubone will often weep at night in mourning of its mother. When Cubone cries, the skull that it wears on its head vibrates and emits “a plaintive and mournful sound.” On the night of a full moon, the cries are said to be especially terrible. Cubone seems to recognize its mother in the moon, and so it howls with a particular sadness.

Habitat

File:Mountain.gif

Mountain Pokémon

Cubone live in rocky areas, usually on mountains or in caves. They also once inhabited the Pokémon Tower in Lavender Town where deceased Pokémon were buried and mourned. It is infamous for seclusion and clandestine activity, so sightings are obviously very rare, limiting information about Cubone and its preferred habitat. It is known that Cubone is predominantly a Kanto-native Pokémon, but sightings in Sinnoh have been reported as well.

Trophy Information

"A Lonely Pokémon. It wears its mother's skull as a helmet--for this reason, no one has ever seen its face. It sometimes sees its departed mother's face in the full moon, which causes it to grow sad and cry. The stains on the skull are tracks of its tears. When it cries, the skull shakes and emits a mournful sound. When it levels up, it evolves into Marowak."

Trivia

• In the Pokémon Red and Blue beta, Cubone was originally known as "Orphon," a corruption of the word "orphan," based on its abandonment at birth.
• Cubone is Midori Harada's favorite Pokémon.
• Ever since cubone's appearance in the pokemon anime there has been much speculation surrounding its origins. Cubone looks like a baby Kangaskhan. The theory is when a kangaskhan mother gives birth she chooses whether she wants the baby to live with her or not. If the mother chooses for the baby kangaskhan to live with her then this means that the baby kangaskhan will grow up to be a "kangaskhan". However if the kangaskhan mother chooses to abandon its baby then as a result of the baby's abandonment and the baby kangaskhan's living environment there after it will become a Cubone and later a Marowak.
• Despite the Pokédex's statement that it wears the skull of its dead mother, Cubone can be bred in the games with no ill effects on its mother. This is due to Cubone being created before breeding in the games was possible.
• Cubone is one of the Pokémon that appears in the Pokémon 151 clothing line.
• Despite not being a Ghost-type Pokémon, it is still encountered as a ghost in the Pokémon Tower without the aid of a Silph Scope.

Origin

Cubone is possibly based on a dinosaur or a dinosaur fossil, and, like dinosaurs, nobody has ever seen a Cubone's real face; only its mother's skull. It also could be based off of primitive cultures that wore bones for decoration and used them for weapons.

Name origin

Cubone may be a combination of cute and bone, cub and bone, or cue ball (a reference to its pale white head or that its bone resembles a billiards or snooker cue) and bone. It could also be a combination of the Latin word cubo (recluse) and bone; this can refer to its lonely nature.

Karakara may be taken to mean からから (clattering). It is worth noting that karakara denotes lighter clattering than がらがら garagara.
