Pokemon Review: Crobat

Crobat: The Bat Pokemon

Crobat is a Poison/Flying type that was released in the second generation of Pokemon in the two games known as Pokemon Gold and Pokemon Silver.

Crobat evolves from Golbat and is the highest evolution currently for Zubat. He becomes Crobat by leveling up with high happiness.

Crobat is known for his extremely high speed stat (base 130) and his ability to break down opponents with his powerful attacks.

It states in Crobat's pokedex that it can fly silently and flies very quickly. He also has two sets of wings.

Now that we have that out of the way, the review!

Crobat is a powerful flying type that can, and should, be considered for every team due to his great movesets, high speed, and decent attack.

Personally Crobat is my favorite Pokemon, which is because of his original design, interesting combat style and ability to stop stalls.

Personally the moveset I enjoy using is a life orb set with Brave Bird, Roost, Cross Poison, and U-Turn.

Crobat is a threat to any team and should always be thought about when creating a team in competitive play.

In game Crobat is also a monster. Crobat usually comes in early as Zubat. Although Zubat is considered as an annoying Pokemon because of his fast Supersonic. Although the bad rep that Zubat gave to the line, you will not be disappointed in your Crobat.

Crobat also typically covers the Gym leaders and the Elite 4. For many of them are Fighting, Grass, Bug and other things that it gets STAB on.

Now I'm going to rate the Pokemon on a word grading basis.
