'''Crobat''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''クロバット''' ''Crobat'') is a dual-type {{2t|Poison|Flying}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]].
'''Crobat''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: クロバット ''Crobat'') is a {{2t|Poison|Flying}}-type Pokémon.
 
It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Golbat}} when [[friendship evolution|leveled up with high friendship]]. It is the final form of {{p|Zubat}}.


=Biology=
(Specifics may differ in past games. Refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data→Evolution data]] for these details.)
==Physiology==
Crobat has a purple body as opposed to being blue, like its pre-evolutions.  Crobat has a stubby pair of feet and has developed a second pair of wings.  Crobat's eyes are yellow with red pupils.
===Gender differences===
None.


===Special abilities===
==Biology==
[[File:CrobatSkyridge6.jpg|thumb|150px|left|Crobat hanging upside-down with their wings folded]]
Crobat is a purple, {{wp|bat|chiropteran}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a small, round body. It has long, pointed ears, yellow eyes with red pupils, and a small mouth that usually has its teeth bared. On its body are two pairs of wings: an upper pair that is slightly larger and a lower pair that developed from its hind legs. Both pairs have green-blue membranes, but the lower pair's membranes are only visible from the back. The upper wings have two claw-like fingers near the middle. On the bottom of its body are what appear to be a pair of stubby feet or tufts of fur.


==Behavior==
Crobat is capable of flying long distances by alternating between its two sets of wings. The extra set of wings has also improved its flight speed without sacrificing its ability to fly silently. It can also travel through cramped caves without ever slowing. The combination of silent flight and sharp fangs allows it to bite down on prey without being noticed and drain their blood. If unable to consume blood, it becomes lethargic and unable to fly. Due to its lack of legs, it is clumsy on the ground and only able to crawl around with its wings. Crobat is rarely found in the wild, though it is typically found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon|caves}} or on tree branches, where it hangs upside-down by its rear wings. It is a nocturnal Pokémon.
==Habitat==
[[Image:Cave.gif|left|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Cave Pokémon|Cave Pokémon]]]]
Crobat is a cave-dwelling Pokémon.


==Diet==
===Evolution===
''Main article: [[Pokémon food]]''
Crobat evolves from {{p|Golbat}} and is the final form of {{p|Zubat}}.


=In the anime=
(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data→Evolution data]].)

A Bat Pokémon that evolves from {{P|Golbat}}, Crobat's hind legs have evolved into a second pair of wings, which allows it to fly at great speeds but limits its ability to rest.  The affection a Golbat has for its [[trainer]] is vital for the evolution process: if a novice trainer has a Crobat, it shows that he or she cares for Pokémon well.

''A Bat Pokémon that evolves from {{p|Golbat}}, Crobat's hind legs have evolved into a second pair of wings, which allows it to fly at great speeds but limits its ability to rest. The affection a Golbat has for its {{pkmn|Trainer}} is vital for the evolution process: if a novice Trainer has a Crobat, it shows that he or she cares for Pokémon well.''

==Trivia==
{{Sprite|
* No other Pokémon has the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Crobat and its pre-evolved forms. They are also the only Flying-type with a unique type combination.
type=poison|
* Crobat and its pre-evolved forms are the only {{type|Poison}} Pokémon in the {{egg3|Flying}}.
gen=2|
* Crobat and its pre-evolved forms share their {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Woobat}}. They are all known as the Bat Pokémon.
gender=none|
* Crobat's color scheme is the reverse of {{p|Golbat}}'s. This also applies to its {{Shiny}} variation.
ndex=169|
* Crobat's evolutionary family has several similarities with {{p|Swoobat}}'s. All of the members of both lines are based on bats and reach their respective final evolved form by [[friendship]].
name=Crobat|
* Crobat can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Noivern}}. Both are {{type|Flying}} Pokémon based on bats that have {{a|Infiltrator}} as a possible [[Ability]]. They have the same base stat total and the same base [[HP]], {{stat|Defense}}, and {{stat|Special Defense}} stats.
}}
* Although Crobat's Pokédex entries imply that its only pair of hindlegs have developed into wings, Crobat is sometimes depicted with an additional pair of tiny legs/feet.


=Trivia=
===Origin===
*Despite the fact that the Pokédex information says that Crobat's rear legs and rear wings are the same body part, Crobat clearly has a set of feet and legs distinct from its hind wings depicted in the rear sprites in [[Generation III]], as well as in the anime, TCG, and 3D games. However, the footprint in the Pokédex for Crobat is blank.
Crobat seems to be based on a {{wp|bat}}, particularly {{wp|vampire bat}}s, which bite other animals to {{wp|Hematophagy|feed on their blood}}. It may also be inspired by mythological {{wp|vampires}}. Its extra set of wings may be based on the fact that a bat's front legs and hindlegs are connected by their {{wp|patagium}}, essentially incorporating all of their limbs into their wings. Its very high {{stat|Speed}} stat may be based on the {{wp|Mexican free-tailed bat}}, which purportedly has the fastest horizontal flight speed of any animal. Its {{t|Poison}} type may be inspired by either the {{wp|anticoagulant}} properties of vampire bat saliva or the fact that bats are infamous for spreading deadly diseases such as {{wp|rabies}}.
*Since its debut in [[Generation II]], Crobat has been in all regional [[Pokédex]]es.
==Origin==
Crobat is, obviously, based on a [[wp:Bat|bat]].


===Name origin===
====Name origin====
Crobat's name is a combination of ''cross'' and ''[[wp:Bat|bat]]''. It may also be a combination of 黒 ''kuro'', black, and English ''[[wp:Bat|bat]]''.
Crobat may be a combination of ''cross'' and ''{{wp|bat}}''. It may also involve ''{{wp|Acrobatics|acrobat}}'' (referring to its agility in the air).
