This ancient creature is depicted as a horseshoe crab-like arthropod, covered in a hard, protective shell with two prominent red eyes. Its natural habitat is believed to have been ancient beaches and shallow seas, where it thrived approximately 300 million years ago. Kabuto's diet likely consisted of small marine organisms. In the games, players can revive Kabuto from the Dome Fossil, highlighting its prehistoric origins and the concept of bringing ancient Pokémon back to life. Kabuto's Rock typing makes it strong against Fire, Ice, Flying, and Bug types, while its Water typing gives it an advantage over Fire, Ground, and Rock types. However, it is vulnerable to Grass and Electric attacks due to its dual typing. In the anime, Kabuto often appears in episodes related to scientific research or ancient ruins, emphasizing its historical significance. Its unique appearance and fossil revival mechanic have made it a memorable part of the Pokémon franchise, representing the mysteries of prehistoric life within the Pokémon world.
