Feraligatr (Japanese: オーダイル Ordile) is a Template:Type2 Pokémon.

It evolves from Croconaw starting at level 30. It is the final form of Totodile.

Biology

Physiology

Feraligatr are big, bulky, bipedal crocodilian Pokémon, primarily blue in coloration with accentuations of red and yellow. In aspects of coloration, Feraligatr much resembles its pre-evolution, with the exception of the vanished ‘animal skin’ pattern. A notable feature of Feraligatr is its large, powerful, toothy jaws that are able to cause heavy damage. Three teeth are visible when Feraligatr closes its mouth, two from the lower jaw and one from the upper. Feraligatr has three sets of spikes on its body, all of which possess three prongs. The one on its back appears particularly prominent, due to its size and the bulk of Feraligatr’s shoulders. The bisected, V-shaped yellow pattern Feraligatr possessed as a Totodile has reappeared, except being on the lower portion of its body and between its thighs instead of its arms. Feraligatr also have large scales on their arms, tails, and legs, the latter of which give the appearance of pockets. A differing feature of Feraligatr in comparison to its pre-evolutions is that its irises are yellow instead of red and that all its digits have nails.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Along with the usual Template:Type2 abilities, Feraligatr's jaws have the ability to lock in place like its pre-evolutions. In combination with their large muscle power, this ability makes them extremely fearsome and brutal.

Behavior

Feraligatr are more used to swimming than to walking on land. When this Pokémon does venture out of water, it crawls on all fours in order to move faster, it has a hard time standing on its hind legs as a result of being big. However, when they are hunting or fighting, they are surprisingly agile and fast, due to their powerful hind legs that are used to kick the ground hard and charge. The fact that Feraligatr are cold-blooded Pokémon means that they need to be where they can adjust their body temperatures accordingly. Feraligatr intimidates its foes by opening its huge mouth, although it lacks the actual ability.

Habitat

Trivia

• Feraligatr is the tallest final form of a Template:Type2 starter Pokémon, at 7 feet and 7 inches (2.3 meters).
• Feraligatr reaches its final evolutionary form earlier than any other starter Pokémon, at level 30. Coincidentally, Totodile evolves at level 18, the latest of any basic starter Pokémon, tied with Turtwig.
• The lack of a vowel between the T and R in Feraligatr is due to the ten character limit on Pokémon names, which also affects Victreebel.
• Feraligatr shares the same base stat values with Blastoise, but differently attributed.
• In Gold and Silver, Feraligatr's body was the same color in both its normal and Shiny sprites. This was changed in Crystal.
• Feraligatr is the only fully evolved Johto starter to appear in PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure.

Origin

Like Totodile and Croconaw, Feraligatr is a crocodilian. It visually resembles an alligator.

Name origin

Feraligatr is a combination of feral and alligator. It may also derive from ferocious. The shortening of "gator" into gatr is a result of the ten-character limit on English Pokémon names.

Ordile may be a combination of 王 ō (king), 皇 ō (emperor), or 大 ō (large), and crocodile.

In other languages

Language Name Name Origin German Impergator Combination of imperial and alligator. French Aligatueur From alligator and tueur. Korean 장크로다일 Jangkeurodail From 장 (長) and crocodile. 장 also means long, referring to its size. Chinese (Mandarin) 大力鱷 / 大力鳄 Dàlì'è Means "Energetic crocodilian". Chinese (Cantonese) 大力鱷 Daaihlihkngohk Same as Mandarin name.
