==Biology==
==Biology==
Vikavolt is a beetle-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a large pair of mandibles. Its small orange face has robotic, yellow eyes and is covered by a blue carapace. The mandibles extend from this helmet. They are blue on the inner surface and yellow on the outer surface. At the base of each mandible is a large spike and the inside is lined with short spikes. Its body is black and divided into three sections by yellow rings. The last two sections have a yellow spot on each side. On its back is a pair of wide, flat wings that are transparent with blue wing covers. It has four legs; the front pair of legs has two claws, while the back pair has only one.

On its back is a pair of wide, flat wings that are transparent with blue {{wp|elytra}}. It has four legs; the front pair of legs has two claws, while the back pair has only one.


Vikavolt produces electricity with an organ in its abdomen and controls it with its huge jaws to fire powerful electric beams. When it clasps a {{p|Charjabug}} in its legs, it is able to utilize it as an extra battery. This allows it to continue firing powerful attacks. However, during fierce aerial fights, it will release Charjabug to make itself lighter and more mobile. It is an adept flier, capable of acrobatic maneuvers such as tailspins and sharp turns. Even as it weaves through complicated tangles of branches in the forest, it is able to maintain high-speed flight.<ref>[http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/vikavolt/ Pokémon Sun and Moon site | Vikavolt]</ref> It is known to have a rivalry with {{p|Pinsir}} and {{p|Heracross}}. As shown in [[SM119|the anime]], it likes to drink {{wp|Sap|tree sap}}.
Vikavolt produces electricity with an organ in its abdomen and controls it with its huge jaws to fire powerful electromagnetic beams. Vikavolt shoots these to strike down bird Pokémon. When it clasps a {{p|Charjabug}} in its legs, it is able to utilize it as an extra battery. This allows it to rapidly fire its powerful beam attacks. However, during fierce aerial fights, it will release Charjabug to make itself lighter and more mobile. It is an adept flier, capable of acrobatic maneuvers such as tailspins and sharp turns. Even as it weaves through complicated tangles of branches in the forest, it is able to maintain high-speed flight.<ref>[http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/vikavolt/ Pokémon Sun and Moon site | Vikavolt]</ref> It is known to have a rivalry with {{p|Pinsir}} and {{p|Heracross}}. As shown in the episode ''[[SM119|A High-Speed Awakening!]]'', it likes to drink {{wp|Sap|tree sap}}. In that same episode, it is shown that, in [[Alola]], there is a competition known as the [[Vikavolt race]], where {{pkmn|Trainer}}s can have their Vikavolt race for the chance to win a [[Buginium Z]].


==In the anime==
A special Vikavolt in Alola serves as the [[Totem Pokémon]] for the [[Hokulani Observatory]]'s [[Island challenge|Island trial]].

Vikavolt [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Charjabug}} when [[level]]ed up in a [[special magnetic field]]. There is no special magnetic field in {{g|Sword and Shield}}, so from [[Generation VIII]] onwards, Charjabug is also able to evolve into Vikavolt when exposed to a [[Thunder Stone]].

===Origin===
===Origin===
Vikavolt appears to be based on a {{wp|stag beetle}} and a {{wp|railgun}}. Its straight, scissor-like {{wp|Mandible (insect mouthpart)|mandibles}} resemble those of ''Lucanus hayashii'' and some ''{{wp|Cyclommatus}}'' species of beetles.
Vikavolt appears to be based on a {{wp|stag beetle}} and a {{wp|railgun}}. Its straight, scissor-like {{wp|Mandible (insect mouthpart)|mandibles}} resemble those of ''Lucanus hayashii'' and some ''{{wp|Cyclommatus}}'' species of beetles. Its original evolution method of levelling up in a [[magnetic field]] might come from various insects such as termites (which also have mandibles), which use {{wp|geomagnetism}} to navigate their nests and orient their construction. It may also be based on the Vic Viper, the playable ship from the {{wp|Gradius}} arcade games. Its body shape resembles a jet fighter, with its long, straight mandibles matching the Vic Viper's distinctive frontal prongs, and its behavior of darting around waiting for openings while firing powerful beams also describes gameplay from side-scrolling shooters such as Gradius, while its apparently-contradictory slow base speed may come from the way the screen automatically scrolls slowly in those games.
