Crawdaunt (Japanese: シザリガー Shizariger) is a dual-type Water/Dark Pokémon.
Biology
Physiology
Crawdaunt are large, mostly red crustacean Pokémon. They have three pairs of limbs in total: two pincers with spikes protruding from the edges and tan-colored lower sides of the claws, one pair of legs that resembles Corphish's with small spikes, and a two-clawed back pair that looks almost elephantine. They possess two blue stripes on their chin that are sometimes mistaken for a pair of lips. Lower on their tan-colored underside is a pattern of angular red shapes, separating the upper portion of their underside from the lower portion. On the top of their head is a yellow star-shaped object, the purpose of which is currently not known. It may just be there for show. Crawdaunt has circular eyes with small pupils in dark sockets, and a pocketing in its shell below its eye resembling ‘bags’. On the lower part of its lobster-like tail is a triangular patch of yellow.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Crawdaunt is a very powerful, violent Pokémon. Its strong pincers allow it to use moves such as ViceGrip and even Guillotine. Crawdaunt often wildly flails its pincers, and also may use them to pick up and toss other Pokémon out of its pond. As a Water-type, Crawdaunt can also use Water-type moves such as Bubble and BubbleBeam.
Behavior
Crawdaunt are extremely aggressive Pokémon that will bully others in order to drive them away from their homes, exhibiting behavior similar to Whiscash. Its nature also means that Crawdaunt is prone to challenge other living things to battle, and it loves to do so. Crawdaunt molt their shells regularly, and immediately after their shells are soft and tender. Until the shells harden, Crawdaunt hide in their streambed burrows to avoid being attacked from its foes.
Veteran Crawdaunt, which have prevailed in hundreds of battles, have giant pincers that are marked with countless scars. Crawdaunt have been said to be hard to raise.
Habitat
Crawdaunt live in ponds and streams.

In the manga
In the Pokémon Adventures manga
In the Pokémon Adventures manga, a wild Crawdaunt is seen ambushing Briney and injuring his Wingull's beak. It was subdued by Coco's Double-Edge attack and fell victim to its Cute Charm before being tied up by Ruby, though he pretends that it wasn't his work, as at this point he still hates battling.

Trivia
- Crawdaunt is the only Pokémon with a catch rate of 155.
- Crawdaunt is the only dual-type Pokémon that can have the Ability Adaptability.
Origin
Crawdaunt's name and appearance suggest that it is based on a red swamp crayfish. However, its size and Dark type would suggest it is based on a larger, more powerful creature, such as the lobster. Crawdaunt's shell may be based on batesian mimicry in association with Sharpedo, as it resembles an open shark mouth with a star on the nose.
Name origin
Crawdaunt is a combination of crawdad or crawfish (alternate names for a crayfish) and daunt (to cause to lose courage) or taunt.
Shizariger is a combination of シザー shizā (scissors) and ザリガニ zarigani (crayfish).
