Dewott (Japanese: フタチマル Futachimaru) is a Template:Type2 Pokémon introduced in Generation V.

It evolves from Oshawott starting at level 17, and evolves into Samurott starting at level 36.

Biology

Physiology

Dewott is a bipedal, otter-like Pokémon that is primarily light blue in coloration. It has small black ears, a pointed crest at the back of its head, a red nose shaped like a tilted oval, and long white whiskers forming tilted "V" shapes. Its forelimbs sport three fingers on each black-colored paw. Around its waist is a large, blue, fringed adornment, with seashells—like those Dewott possessed as an Oshawott—on the thighs. Its feet are tipped in black and its somewhat plank-shaped tail is also black-colored.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Dewott can detach the two shells from its hips and use them as bladed weapons. Swordshell-wielding attacks differ between Dewott.

Behavior

Dewott strictly train themselves to be able to master its shell swordsmanship. It never fails when keeping its swordshell in shape.

Habitat

Dewott primarily live in water, but are actually amphibious, like Oshawott and Samurott.

Trivia

Origin

Dewott is based on a sea otter and samurai[1]. Its trait of fighting with its two shells may be based on Tessenjutsu, a type of martial arts involving the Japanese war fan.

Name origin

Dewott is a combination of dew or duo, water, and otter. Futachimaru seems to come from 二つ futatsu meaning two, 太刀 tachi meaning long sword, and 丸 maru, a common ending in a boy's name, especially in the time of samurai. The 二 futa in Futachimaru may imply a lineage within the evolutionary line, with Dewott being second in line.

In other languages

Language Name Name Origin
Chinese 雙刃丸 Shuāng Rèn Wán From 雙刃 (double-edged blade) and the Japanese 丸 maru.
