Scrafty (Japanese: ズルズキン Zuruzukin) is a dual-type Dark/Fighting Pokémon introduced in Generation V.

It evolves from Scraggy starting at level 39.

Biology

 
Scrafty wearing its skin as a hood in the anime

Scrafty is a bipedal, lizard-like Pokémon. It has oval, wide-set eyes with small pupils and gray eyelids, as well as small nostrils and a wide mouth with bared teeth, giving it the appearance of a permanent sneer. It sports a red crest on its head, similar in appearance to a mohawk. Baggy yellow skin hangs off its shoulders, falling halfway down its back. As shown in the anime, it can wear this skin like a hood. Scrafty's body is orange, with thin arms and a gray, scaled belly. Its lower body and tail are covered by loose yellow skin resembling baggy trousers. On its tail is a single red scale.

Scrafty is powerful enough to kick through concrete blocks used by Conkeldurr, and can also spit acidic liquid from its mouth, which it does to taunt opponents. It can protect itself while attacking by pulling up or folding the loose skin around its waist. Scrafty lives in groups with other members of its species. Groups determine hierarchy by crest size, with the Scrafty having the largest crest becoming the leader. A group will attack anything that comes within its territory. Scrafty never leaves its territory for a long time. Though often coming off as rude, it takes good care of its loved ones and its turf. Scrafty never leaves the territory it watches over its whole life long.

Major appearances

Scrafty debuted in Meowth's Scrafty Tactics!. It was kicked out of its den by a wild Mandibuzz, who herself had been forced to relocate. Scrafty begged a wild Beartic, Scolipede, and Darmanitan to help it win back its territory, but none of them helped it. As a result, it resorted to kidnapping Iris's Axew and holding it ransom. Meowth and Ash's Scraggy negotiated with and distracted Scrafty whilst Ash, Pikachu, and Snivy rescued Axew. Later, Scrafty confronted Mandibuzz, only to be defeated. However, Scraggy, using the High Jump Kick it had learned from Scrafty, defeated Mandibuzz and won Scrafty's den back.

Trivia

Origin

Scrafty may based on a lizard. With its red spike mohawk, and molted skin "pants" and "hoodie", Scrafty may also be partially inspired by stereotypes of various urban youth subcultures, namely hip hop and punk.

Name origin

Scrafty may be a combination of scrappy (feisty), scruffy, or scraggy (scrawny), and crafty (being skilled at deceit to achieve one's goals).

Zuruzukin may be a combination of 狡 zuru (sly fellow), 狡い zurui (crafty), or ずるずる zuruzuru (onomatopoeia for dragging slowly) and 頭巾 zukin (hood) or possibly skin.
