Read more ↓Zubat is a familiar Poison/Flying-type Pokémon first introduced in Generation I. Known for its distinct lack of eyes, Zubat navigates its environment entirely through echolocation, emitting ultrasonic waves from its mouth and interpreting the echoes. This adaptation makes it perfectly suited for dark caves, its natural habitat, where it hangs upside down from ceilings in large colonies. Its diet primarily consists of insects, which it skillfully hunts using its sonic sense. Zubat's behavior is largely nocturnal, emerging from its roosts at dusk to forage. It evolves into Golbat starting at level 22, and then into Crobat when leveled up with high friendship. In the games and anime, Zubat often serves as an early-game encounter, particularly in caves, and is frequently portrayed as a nuisance due to its high encounter rate. Despite its commonality, Zubat holds significant cultural recognition as one of the original 151 Pokémon, a staple of early Pokémon adventures, and a symbol of the challenges and discoveries found within the series' subterranean landscapes. Its evolution, Crobat, is also highly regarded for its speed and design.
