#845. Cramorant

Regular Form: It's so strong that it can knock out some opponents in a single hit, but it also may forget what it's battling midfight.

Gulping Form: Cramorant is constantly on the hunt for food along riverbanks. It loves Arrokuda—when it finds them, it swallows them whole without a thought.

Gorging Form: Its throat is clearly not wide enough to swallow a Pikachu, and yet Cramorant makes no move to release its catch.

Colour and symbol charts can be found here.

A note on colours: in my experience, floss looks different irl than in online pattern makers. If you think a different colour will work better, go with your gut!

I just realised you missed Castform's different weather forms...

Finally, someone who noticed!

Which forms I included was somewhat arbitrary. Regional variants, megas, and gigantamax got automatic passes, but for other ones I had to be more specific. I couldn't include all of them, because some Pokémon (cough Alcremie cough) have so many forms they would overwhelm the entire tournament. A form had to be a) interestingly different, b) not change often, because that makes them basically a feature of a single Pokémon and c) not purely cosmetic to be included. Since castform can become any of the forms basically at will, I didn't include them. The forms I didn't include, as far as I remember:

Cap Pikachus

Unown letters

Castforms forms

Cherrim's transformation

Arceus's forms

Deerlings and Sawsbucks

Resolute Keldeo

Genesect's drives

Vivillon's forms

Furfrou's haircuts

Shield Aegislash

Pumpkaboo and Gourgeist's sizes

Neutral vs. Active Xerneas

Zygarde cells and cores

Unbound Hoopa

School Wishiwashi

Silvally's forms

Minior's cores

Busted Mimikyu

Original Color Magearna

Gulping & Gorging Cramorant

Antique Sinistea and Polteageist

Noice Eiscue

Hangry Morpeko

Zacian and Zamazenta's forms

Single strike and rapid strike Urshifu

Dada Zarude

Riders Calyrex

Family of 3 Maushold

Squawkabilly's colors

Zero Form Palafin

Three-segment Dudunsparce

Chest Gimmighoul

There is a bunch of arbitrariness here. I did allow Spiky Eared Pichu in. I included the two Basculins purely because I considered White Stripe different enough as a regional variant (Still, the Shellos line has no such excuse). I remembered Hoopa's forms when I had already queued up a bunch, and I figured nobody would notice because like hell I was going to reorganize everything and besides, they were up against Johto legendaries and Hoenn starters.

Cramorant the Gulp pokemon a water and flying type

2ft 7inc

39.7lbs

Ability: Gulp Missile

Egg Group: Water 1 and Flying

Highest Base Stat: Special Defense: 95

Lowest Base Stat: Defense:55

Base Stat Total: 475

Normal Form: It's so strong that it can knock out some opponents in a single hit, but it also may forget what it's battling midfight. This hungry Pokemon swallows Arrokuda whole. Occasionally, it makes a mistake and tries to swallow a Pokémon other than its preferred prey.

Gulping Form: Cramorant's gluttony led it to try to swallow an Arrokuda whole, which in turn led to Cramorant getting an Arrokuda stuck in its throat.The slightest shock is sometimes enough to get this Pokemon to spit out the Arrokuda lodged in its throat.

Gorging Form: This Cramorant has accidentally gotten a Pikachu lodged in its gullet. Cramorant is choking a little, but it isn't really bothered. The half-swallowed Pikachu is so startled that it isn't struggling yet, but it's still looking for a chance to strike back.

Cramorant is the only pokemon with the ability Gulp Missile (When the Pokemon uses Surf or Dive, it will come back with prey. When it takes damage, it will spit out the prey to attack.)

Day 211: Cramorant Gorging Form

[doodledex-project]

Doodledex - #845 Cramorant

Despite how goofy they look, with their seemingly vacant stare, Cramorant are actually pretty good fighters... even if they sometimes forget what their opponent is! And like real cormorants, they’re also pretty skilled at catching fish...

...Except they often get so excited about their food, they wind up trying to swallow their catch whole! This usually results in Cramorant getting whatever it is it’s eating (usually... the next Pokemon I’m going to post about, actually) lodged in its throat... which can even happen if it uses Surf or Dive in battle! Thankfully, one hit will cause Cramorant to forcefully spit its catch out... right into whatever hit it! (If that didn’t sound painful (and embarrassing) enough, they’ve also been known to try and eat Pikachu by mistake, resulting in a nasty shock for the unlucky sap on the end of that Gulp Missile!)

Another Galar-Themed series of Pokemon terrariums is on the way and it seems to be way too early for true individualized close-up visuals

From what I can make out of each the scenes being captured are...

Cramorant with Pikachu in its beak but not like when it’s in Gorging Form

Raboot practicing its skills by kicking fruit off a tree

Toxel picking a flower

Morpekos in both forms with Applin

Corviknight at night

Snom with a little igloo to call home

Ok so I didn't realize cramorant's gorging form was essentially it voring a pikachu and I can't tell whether I feel like laughing or crying

[hunty627]

Here’s Ash reacting to Cramorant in his gorging form. That’s the form when he has a Pikachu in his mouth. When he spits him out, the foe will get hurt and paralyzed. Ash: What the?! Pikachu, what are you doing in that Cramorant’s beak?! Spit him out, Cramorant!

I see you have seen Cramorant's Gorging form. Yes, it is a form. It has two and other is called Gulping form. It is so wild and strange when it has a Pikachu in it's mouth and also uses Pikachu as a attack by shooting it from it's mouth to only have Pikachu returning to it's mouth.

it startled me so much bc I didn’t know it could do that and also I was afraid it would eat the pikachu like a berry to regain health

Poke-Reviews Returns!

Cramorant #845

Height: 2’ 7”        Weight: 39.7lbs

Type: Water/Flying

               Behold! The first Pokémon to be reviewed under this rebooted era of Poke-Reviews! And also the first Pokémon reviewed from the new Sword and Shield Pokémon games! I do love a two-for-one deal.

               Quick aside for anyone who doesn’t know my style for reviewing Pokémon. I generally give fun facts about the Pokémon and my feelings on them. Then I move into discussing their Stats, Move list, and Abilities. All of these come together to inform you if a Pokémon is worth raising or if using it is a waste of time. (If you like a Pokémon reviewed negatively that’s fine).

               Anyway, Cramorant was first introduced in one of the many, many trailers that preceded Pokémon Sword and Shield. And I fell in love instantly. Something about its derpy face, color pallet, and slightly Dodo bird inspired design won my heart over to this goof.

               Now Water/Flying isn’t a unique typing for Pokémon in the slightest. It has two weaknesses (Rock and Electric) but, unfortunately, they are both very common types to run into. In addition, this bird has a quad weakness to electric types and will go down faster than the Arrokunda these things like to eat.

               Stat-Wise: HP 70 Atk 85   Def 55   Sp.Atk 85   Sp.Def 95 Speed 85

               For those of you just joining me, here is how I rank a Pokémon’s stats. First off, these stats are based off a Pokémon’s Base Stat total which is how a Pokémon would look like without factoring in specialized breeding, training, natures, and IV’s. Base Stat totals run between 1 and 255.

               How I rank a Pokémon’s worth based off these stats go as follows: 1-50 are bad. 51-80 are average. 81-100 are good. And 101-255 are the best. Keep in mind, very few Pokémon even make it to 255.

               With that said, Cramorant is a very well rounded, but barely above average according to my scale. Many competitive players might ignore this bird in favor of other Water/Flying types like Gyrados, Mantine, and…Swanna, but I happen to like these stats.

               The even Atk and Sp. Atk stats means you can pick and choose how you raise this bird whether you want a brawler or ranged fighter. The Sp. Def being…honestly a surprisingly high stats. Its gives Cramorant more versatility for switch ins to possibly tank a Sp.Atk from your opponent.

               Speed is technically above average but there are tons of Pokémon who naturally out speed my blue bird. While playing the campaign of Pokémon Shield, there were plenty of fights where Cramorant was four levels higher than his opponent, but they were still running circles around him. I did give my bird a Choice Scarf (an item that drastically increases your Pokémon’s speed), but that also runs the problem that whoever uses a Choice Scarf is stuck with only one move until you switch or they faint.

               Like I said, these stats may be to spread out for most hardcore competitive people. I admittedly don’t know much about competitive play, but from what little I do know, most players Pokémon choices seem to depend on having two really high stats as opposed the four above average stats this one has.

               But, I prefer a Pokémon with a lot of options to use than having one with only one use and Cramorant fits that bill to the T.

               Move-Wise:

               While there isn’t as much variety in this ones moves, Cramorant still has a number of moves that can be used to make it an effective fighter.

               It has access to the three move combination of Stockpile, Swallow, and Spit up. Stockpile can be used three times in a row, raising ones Def and Sp.Def each time. From there you can either keep that Pokémon as a tank or use the other two moves. Spit-Up hurls all the stored power at the opponent and does damage equal to the number of Stockpiles done while Swallow heals the user for how many Stockpiles done. These moves are all normal type, by the way, and can be powerful, but you don’t get the same type attack bonus from it.

               The rest of the moves Cramorant learns naturally are the likes of Thrash, Dive, Drill Peck, and Hydro Pump. All of these are just flat out damage dealers which wouldn’t be a problem, but they focus more on making a physical attacker when Cramorant’s stats can support a special attack style as well.

               The TMs and TRs pick up this specific slack with a lot more options to turn Cramorant into a special attacker. Moves like Surf, Air Slash, Hurricane, Ice Beam, and Icy Wind. There are also more physical moves that can give birdy boy a slight edge over its weaknesses like Substitute to block Electric attacks and Steel Wing to damage Rock types.

               Ability-Wise: Gulp Missile

               Cramorant only has one ability but believe me, it is a bit of a doozy. First off, Gulp Missile can only be activated after using the moves Dive or Surf which can be a problem. While these are good moves, if you are anything like me, you try to have moves that cover a lot of types of Pokémon your opponent could be using and maybe you want the strongest water attacks to get the most out of Cramorant. But you have to use these two moves if you want the ability which could be limiting.

               I do think it’s worth it though. See, after using one of these moves Cramorant enters one of two forms depending on its health.

               Gulping Form becomes active if Cramorant has more than half its health. A fish gets caught in the bird’s mouth. Gorging form is active if you have less than half of this Pokémon’s total health and the fish is replaced with a Pikachu. A very confused Pikachu who doesn���t try to escape its fate.

               Once in these forms, Cramorant hangs onto its poor victim until the opponent hits it with an attack. Upon taking damage, Cramorant immediately shoots the Pokémon caught in its throat and dealing damage to the opponent equal to ¼ of the opponent’s total health.

               This alone can force your opponent to make a hasty decision unless they are that far ahead of you. Perhaps their Pokémon is low health, they beat your bird, but it shoots its load and takes the opponent with it.

               In case the opponent’s Pokémon doesn’t fall, two things can happen. In Gulping Form, the fish that is shot out lowers the opponents Defense making them more susceptible to attacks and in Gorging Form the Pikachu that is shot paralyzes the opponent which not only means there is a 25% chance that they can’t attack, but it also slows down the opposing Pokémon.

                 All in all, there are worse choices you can pick for your team. I think with a combination of Gulp Missile and the uncertainty of how you will fight would be enough to make your opponent second guess themselves and even if they don’t it will still be a fun ride for you.

Cramorant the Gulp pokemon a flying and water type

2ft 7inc

39.7lbs

Ability: Gulp Missile

Egg Group: Water 1 and Flying

Highest Base Stat: Special Defense:95

Lowest Base Stat: Defense:55

Regular Form: Cramorant instinctively swallow everything whole. They're at their most formidable when they're struggling to swallow overly large prey. It's an incredibly poor learner because it uses the bare minimum amount of energy for its brain. It focuses on battling instead.

Gulping Form: Cramorant is constantly on the hunt for food along riverbanks. It loves Arrokuda when it finds them, it swallows them whole without a thought. Cramorant takes advantage of Arrokuda's frantic thrashing to help spit Arrokuda out at high speed.

Gorging Form: Its throat is clearly not wide enough to swallow a Pikachu, and yet Cramorant makes no move to release its catch. With a Pikachu stuck in its throat, Cramorant can use Pikachu's prickling electricity to give its opponents a shock.

Cramorant is the only pokemon to have the ability Gulp Missile (When the pokemon uses Surf or Dive, it will come back with prey. When it takes damage, it will spit out the prey to attack).
