Description: A tiny, green dinosaur-like Pokémon, Larvitar can be found in mountains and caves. It has dark, diamond shaped holes on its side and back, a bright red diamond on its belly, and black markings under its red eyes. Its tail resembles a tunnel boring machine and it has a large, blunt spike atop its head which helps in digging. Larvitar are born deep in the ground, where it must consume massive quantities of dirt and dig its way out, before emerging to meet its parents. Although this little Pokémon might not seem like much, its final evolution, Tyranitar remains one of the top attackers in Pokémon Go.
