Trivia

• The design on Croconaw's belly reverses direction in the Generation III sprites and onward.
• Not counting starters in spin off games, Croconaw evolves faster than any other Water-type starter (It evolves at lvl. 30). In fact, it is also the fastest starter to reach its final stage, Feraligatr.
• In Generation II, Croconaw had a spike that flowed back like hair on its head, this was corrected in Crystal.

Origin

This species of Pokémon is based on crocodylians. Also, the head spikes and the pattern on the chest seem to be based on the wild hair and animal-skin cloth worn by a caveman.

Name origin

Croconaw's name is a combination of crocodile and gnaw it may also involve "maw", whereas its Japanese name is based on alligator.

In other languages

• German: Tyracroc
• French: Crocrodil - From crocodile.
• Korean: 엘리게이 Elligei
