Description: A prehistoric Pokémon brought into the moderna era through science, Kabutops is the evolved form of Kabuto. Its skeletal body is mostly brown save for its white torso and metallic scythes. It walks on two legs and its arms end in scythes which it uses to slice open its prey. Its legs and gills suggest that Kabutops was in the process of evolving from a sea dwelling creature, into a land dwelling one. Despite this, Kabutops could swim over 30 MPH.
