Staraptor (ムクホーク Mukuhooku) is a Normal/ -type Pokémon introduced in Generation IV and the evolved form of Staravia.
Staraptor evolves from Staravia starting at level 34 and is the final evolution of Starly.
Biology
Physiology
Staraptor looks like a bigger version of Staravia, except that its feathers are now puffed up into a crest, its eyes have turned into sharp ovals with red pupils, and its comb has now flipped over its head and has red coloration sat the back.
Gender differences
Male Staraptor have bigger crest stamps then the females.
Abilities
Staraptor have access to Intimidate,which drops the foe’s Attack by one stage once staraptor enters battle.
Its hidden ability is reckless, which powers up moves with recoil like Brave Bird.
Staravia have extremely powerful leg and wing muscles that can carry smaller Pokémon in its claws. It is implied to be a solitary Pokémon,leaving its Staravia flock behind when it evolves.
Much like Taillow,they are also very aggressive and persistent.
