• Up to date, Crawdaunt is the only Pokémon with a catch rate of 155.

Origin

Crawdaunt's name suggests it is based on a crayfish. However its size and dark type would suggest it based on a larger more powerdul variation lobster.

Name origin

Crawdaunt's name is a pun on crawdad, an alternate name for a crayfish. It is also in combination with daunt, to cause to lose courage. Its Japanese name is based on シザー shizā, scissors, and ザリガニ zarigani, crayfish. The German name is based off of crab and attack.
