Binacle (カメテテ, Kametete?) (BY-nuh-kull[1]) is a Rock/Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VI.

Biology[]

Physiology[]

Binacle is a two-headed barnacle-based Pokémon. It lives in pairs two on the same rock. Its two heads also serve as its hands, as it has sharp yellowish claw-like features atop its heads. Its heads are attached to a gray rock by orange and white striped tentacles. Each of Binacle's heads are brown in color with sulky expressions on their faces.

Behavior[]

Binacle seems to be an ill-tempered Pokémon, like Dodrio. Their two heads sometimes quarrel, and often a head will move to a different rock when fights break out. When threatened, Binacle contract themselves and hide the vulnerable portions of their bodies, exposing only their bare heads and sharp claws.

Evolution[]

Binacle evolves into Barbaracle at level 39.

  • X

    Two Binacle live together on one rock. When they fight, one of them will move to a different rock.

  • Y

    They stretch and then contract, yanking their rocks along with them in bold hops. They eat seaweed that washes up on the shoreline.

  • Omega Ruby

    Two Binacle live together on one rock. When they fight, one of them will move to a different rock.

  • Alpha Sapphire

    They stretch and then contract, yanking their rocks along with them in bold hops. They eat seaweed that washes up on the shoreline.

  • Sword

    After two Binacle find a suitably sized rock, they adhere themselves to it and live together. They cooperate to gather food during high tide.

  • Shield

    If the two don't work well together, both their offense and defense fall apart. Without good teamwork, they won't survive.
