Contents
Biology
Physiology
Corviknight resembles a large, dark blue, armored raven or crow. The "mask" on its face in its previous forms now resembles a helmet, with peaks on the top and extending over its beak. The lower half of its beak is dark grey. The white markings beneath its eyes are now black, but its eyes remain small and red. Its neck is covered in dark blue armor at the back but has thick feathers in front, while its belly and covert feathers are armored. Its upper legs and four-toed talons are also armored, while its lower legs are dark grey.
In its Gigantamax form, its main difference from its previous for is that it is bigger. However, under its wings are red markings. Corviknight is now accompanied by what appears to be 4 red bird-like objects that help it attack. Like all Gigantamax Pokémon, Corviknight also has red clouds above its head.
Behavior
Often being seen fearlessly soaring through the air, Corviknight is regarded as the strongest Pokémon living in the skies of the Galar region. With just a sharp glare and cry from this fearsome Pokémon, any Pokémon which are foolish enough to challenge it are sent cowering in tremendous fear.
Natural Abilities
Corviknight possesses superb flying skills and high intelligence, which can be helpful for transportation purposes.
