Archaludon's hands and feet are large and V-shaped, each of which are connected to cuboid forelimbs and have two rectangular digits. On these hands and feet, Archaludon has tall, retractable spires near the joints, with the spires on its feet usually retracted. These spires contain pointed, yellow terminals at their tips, which gather and store static electricity from Archaludon's surroundings, as it is incapable of producing electricity on its own.<ref name=SVsite/> Similar terminal pairs are found on the spikes on Archaludon's head and tail. | Archaludon's hands and feet are large and V-shaped, each of which are connected to cuboid forelimbs and have two rectangular digits.

When Archaludon faces danger, it will get down on all fours, straighten its body, retract its limbs, and fully extend the spires on its hands and feet, forming a shape that resembles a steel bridge. This position allows for less mobility but offers Archaludon a sturdier center of gravity.

In this position, Archaludon is capable of using the static electricity stored in its terminals to fire a {{m|Electro Shot|tremendously powerful beam of electric energy}}.<ref name=SVsite/> When Archaludon charges up to fire this beam, electrical energy connects the terminals on its head, tail, and limbs, in a similar fashion to bridge suspension cables. During storms and other inclement weather, Archaludon's terminals can gather static electricity more easily, allowing it to fire off its beam much faster.<ref name=SVsite>[https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/pokemon/archaludon/ Archaludon — Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet | Official Website]</ref> Archaludon's defensive capabilities are so strong that it cannot be fazed by a cave-in. Archaludon often digs holes in the mountains while searching for food. | ||
