Chewtle (カムカメ, Kamukame) is a water-type introduced in Generation VIII. It evolves into Drednaw at level 22.
Biology
Physiology
Chewtle is a small Pokémon that resembles a baby turtle. It has light green skin with orange spiked head and cheeks. Like any turtle, Chewtle has shell with the top half dark green, the bottom half beige, and the brown line between them. It also has a single upper tooth that it teethes with. It has small black eyes with a thin unibrow.
Behavior
Chewtle snaps at anything in front of it because of an itch of its teething. It is known to attack first with its horn, flinching them before biting down and not letting go. For this reason, they prefer to use their horns first in combat to charge at foes. It is only when they see their enemies flinch and give them an opening that Chewtle will chomp down with all of their might. Both their horns and their shells are rock-hard. However, their huge heads make Chewtle unable to retreat back into their shells like some other chelonian Pokémon. Instead, these Pokémon will choose fighting over hiding when it comes to danger, fearlessly biting those who try to harm them.
