Cradily

Cradily (Japanese: ユレイドル, HepburnYureidoru) (cray-DILLY[1]) is a Rock/Grass-type Fossil Pokémon introduced in Generation III.

Biology

Physiology

Cradily is a green Pokémon with yellow eyes and a yellow pattern on its underside. The eyes are in its mouth and the pattern on its head are false eyes. It has a yellow band around its neck. It has red and pink tentacles coming out of the back of its head.

Behavior

Cradily were found rooted on rocks in warm seas. Like Lileep, they have fake eye spots on their bells to deter predators, with their real eyes located on their "true" bodies; their insides are very soft, held in place by the firmer green flesh surrounding it.

Cradily can uproot themselves and slowly crawl around with their stubby legs. They often nest in shallow waters, rooting to rocks and using their bodies to weigh themselves down and prevent themselves from being washed away by rough waves and tides. When the tide goes down, they roam around beaches to dig up prey from the sand. They can also crawl on the sea floor, using their tentacles to ensnare passing prey. They can extend these tentacles to three times their usual length.

Because Cradily lack teeth, their instead secrete acid from these tentacles to dissolve prey externally before feeding. This acid also paralyzes entangled victims so they cannot escape in the meantime. When the weather grew cold during an ice age and their prey migrated south, Cradily were too slow to keep up and likely went extinct because of this.

Evolution

Cradily evolves from a Lileep starting at Level 40.

    Trivia

    • Cradily's shiny sprite colors resembles its pre-evolution (Lileep)'s color. The latter's shiny also resembles the former's color.

    Origin

    Cradily is likely based on crinoids, or sea lilies, animals closely related to starfish and sea urchins which resemble flowers. While sea lilies aren't extinct in real life, there are several species of sea lilies which are extinct, and they can often be found as fossils.

    Etymology

    Cradily may come from cradle, creep, and lily (in reference to sea lilies).
