Biology

Eelektross is an eel-like Pokémon that resembles a lamprey, with a long tentacle-like, finned limb extending from its head. It has red eyes, dark blue body, and possesses clawed, paddle-like arms with yellow spots and yellow-and-red palms. It has a beige fin on the upper portion of its body and beige fin-like legs below. It lives in the ocean, but it comes ashore to capture prey. It can use its arms to crawl out of the ocean and its sucker mouth to suck in prey. After latching onto its prey using its sucker mouth, it drags the prey into the ocean. It electrifies prey before eating.

Trivia

• Eelektross and its pre-evolved forms are the only Pokémon with no type weaknesses.

Origin

Eelektross and its pre-evolved forms may be based on electric eels, lampreys, and possibly leeches. Its Electric typing may be an allusion to bioelectrogenesis.

Name origin

Eelektross is a combination of eel, a corruption of electric, and possibly boss or gross.

Shibirudon may be a combination of 痺れ shibire (numbness) or しびれうなぎ shibireunagi (electric eel) and don (from the Latin dominus, lord) or ὀδούς odoús (Greek for tooth).
