Pokédex entries

Sword
If it sees any movement around it, this Pokémon charges for it straightaway, leading with its sharply pointed jaw. It's very proud of that jaw.
Shield
After it's eaten its fill, its movements become extremely sluggish. That's when Cramorant swallows it up.

Trivia

Origin

Arrokuda resembles a barracuda, more specifically one in its young stages. It may also be based on different throwing weapons such as spears or arrows. This can be seen when Cramorant gulps this Pokémon and shoots it (in a similar fashion to an arrow) at opponents.

Etymology

Arrokuda comes from arrow and barracuda.
