Kricketot (Japanese: コロボーシ Korobooshi) is a Bug-type Pokémon that is found in the Sinnoh region.

Biology

Kricketot is a red bipedal insectoid Pokémon. It has a pair of black, curled antennae attached to a deep red part of its head, and its mouth is similar. Its eyes are black with white pupils. Its arms and legs are short and black. It has a pale yellow collar around its neck, which is connected to its front, which has three lines going through it. Kricketot communicate with others of their kind by shaking their heads, which causes their antennae to hit each other and produce xylophone-like noises. These noises are more common around fall.

Gender differences

Females have larger crests than the males.

Evolution

Kricketot evolves into Kricketune at level 10.
