Feraligatr Pokémon: Stats, Evolution, Best Moveset, Weaknesses & Counters

The world of Pokémon has been a growing phenomenon since 1996, when the first pair of video games came out in stores. Today, there are almost 900 individual Pokémon identified by the PokéDex and in this article, we are going to tell you everything you need to know about one of them – Feraligatr.

Feraligatr is a Water-type Pokémon first introduced in Generation II of the core video games. It is the second and final evolution form of Totodile, one of the Generation’s Starters. Totodile first evolves into Croconaw, which, in turn, evolves into Feraligatr. It is weak only to Grass-, and Electric-type moves, and is super effective against Fire-, Ground- and Rock-type Pokémon. It is not immune to any moves.

In this article, we are going to tell you all the information you’ll need if you want to breed a Feraligatr in any of the games. You’ll find out about its type, its powers, its strengths and weaknesses, its evolutions, and its moves. We’re going to focus on both the core games, as well as other popular video games based on the Pokémon franchise.

Type

Feraligatr is a Water-type Pokémon is the final evolution of Generation II’s Water-type Starter Pokémon, Totodile. It was first introduced in Generation II of the video games and holds #160 in the National PokéDex.

Feraligatr is based on an alligator, alligator, or crocodile. It is light blue in color, has plates on the arms, thighs and tail. It has a pale yellow spot, just like Totodile, on its lower jaw and belly. On its back it has red dorsal fins. He is much bigger and heavier than his pre-evolutions, as well as more fierce, in addition to having strength in his jaws, he also acquires it in his arms, making him a very difficult opponent to defeat.

When a Feraligatr has closed its jaw on an opponent, it will not release it until the opponent is defeated, swinging its head wildly to tear its victim apart. It is the largest final evolution of a Water-type Starter Pokémon, although not the heaviest, even so, due to its weight, it has a hard time moving on two hind legs, so it prefers to move using all four, being fast in this form. He likes to charge at the enemy and hit them with his big jaws.
