Crobat (Pokémon): Difference between revisions

==Biology==

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 they are 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.
