Dracovish (Japanese: ウオノラゴン Uonoragon) is a dual-type Water/Dragon Fossil Pokémon introduced in Generation VIII.

It is resurrected from combining a Fossilized Fish and Fossilized Drake, and it is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

Biology

This section does not yet meet the quality standards of Bulbapedia. Please feel free to edit this section to make it conform to Bulbapedia norms and conventions.

Dracovish is a hybrid fossil Pokémon. The lower Dino half is reversed. There’s a pink and green circle between the legs. The legs are green with pink toes and stripes. The tail neck is green with pink stripes and spikes. The fish half is placed on top of the tail neck. The round blue head has black rectangular pupils. It has a red spot connected to white spot near eyes. The inside of the mouth is also colored red. It has two white fins connected to the small arms behind the mouth.

It was the apex predator of its time due to its powerful legs and jaws and ability to run at speeds exceeding 40 mph. However, it could not breathe unless underwater, and went extinct due to overhunting its prey.

Trivia

• Dracovish shares its category with Aerodactyl, Dracozolt, Arctozolt and Arctovish. They are all known as the Fossil Pokémon.
• Dracovish, Dracozolt, Arctozolt, and Arctovish are the first Fossil Pokémon to not be Rock-type, or to have a gender.

Origin

Dracovish, like its counterparts, may be based on the Crystal Palace Dinosaurs, a series of misassembled dinosaur sculptures displayed at the Crystal Palace Park. The placement of its head on the tip of its tail may be a reference to the first reconstruction of Elasmosaurus. In the case of Dracovish, its top half appears to be based on the Dunkleosteus, while its bottom half appears to be based mainly on a stegosaurid.

The Pokédex entries for all the Galar Fossils mention them being the cause of their own extinction, which may be a reference to the outdated hypothesis that the dinosaurs were evolutionary inert, which made them get bigger, sluggish and stupider to the point they couldn't sustain themselves.

Name origin

Dracovish may be a combination of dracō (Latin for dragon) and fish.

Uonoragon may be a combination of 魚 uo (fish) and dragon.
