Read more ↓Kabutops is a dual Water/Rock-type Fossil Pokémon introduced in Generation I, evolving from Kabuto. This ancient Pokémon is often depicted as a swift, predatory creature that once roamed the prehistoric seas. Its sleek, blade-like claws are its most distinctive feature, used for both hunting and defense. Kabutops is thought to have been an agile hunter, using its sharp appendages to slice through prey and drain their bodily fluids, a behavior reflected in its Pokédex entries across various game titles. In the Pokémon anime, Kabutops has made appearances that highlight its ferocious nature and its origins as a revived fossil. Its evolutionary line, along with Omanyte and Omastar, represents the ancient past of the Pokémon world and often plays a role in game storylines involving fossil revival. Due to its unique type combination, Kabutops has interesting matchups, being strong against Fire, Flying, and Bug types, but vulnerable to Grass, Electric, Fighting, and Ground moves. Its design, reminiscent of prehistoric arthropods, makes it a fan favorite among those who appreciate the more primal side of the Pokémon universe, and it holds a significant place in the original 151 Pokémon.
