Read more ↓Skorupi is known as the Scorpion Pokémon, a dual Bug/Poison-type creature introduced in Generation IV. Its design is clearly inspired by scorpions, featuring a segmented body, sharp pincers, and a venomous tail. In the wild, Skorupi is often found in desert and swampy areas, where it burrows under the sand to ambush unsuspecting prey. Its diet primarily consists of smaller insects and Pokémon, which it paralyzes with the potent venom injected from its tail claws before consuming. Skorupi evolves into Drapion, a formidable Pokémon known for its powerful pincers and increased venom potency. In the games, Skorupi can be encountered in various locations like the Great Marsh in Sinnoh and the Safari Zone in Johto remakes. It has also made appearances in the Pokémon anime, often depicted as a cunning and dangerous predator. Its unique typing gives it several resistances and weaknesses, making it a strategic choice for trainers. Culturally, Skorupi embodies the predatory nature of scorpions, often portrayed as a creature to be wary of in its natural habitats. Its evolution, Drapion, further emphasizes this theme of a powerful and dangerous arthropod.
