Dwebble(JP) is a species of Pokémon in the series of the same name. It is a dual-type Bug/Rock Pokémon that made its first appearance in the fifth Pokémon generation in the Black and White games. it evolves into Crustle starting at level 34.

Physiology and Behaviour[]

Dwebble is a small, orange, hermit crab-like Pokémon with large pincers. It has dark, oval-shaped eyes supported by eye stalks. It has a hook-like tail that is concealed underneath the sectioned chunk of gray rock it uses as a shell. It ties with Minior and Carbink as the shortest Rock-type.

When finding a rock to use as its shell, Dwebble inspects the rock to see if it can be used, then it digs a hole in the rock's bottom. It can expel a corrosive spray from its mouth to help it carve such a hole, or to mend its shell. If the rock breaks, Dwebble won't calm down until it can find a replacement. Its search for suitable rocks makes it a natural enemy of Roggenrola and Rolycoly. If it can't find a livable rock, it moves into the ports of a Hippowdon, where it dislodges any stuck stones; in return, the Hippowdon looks after the homeless Dwebble.

Appearances[]

Main Pokémon games[]

Other Pokémon games[]

Pokémon Magikarp Jump: Dwebble may appear during training. As part of the "Dwebble Push" training session, the player's Magikarp pushes it to earn JP.

In the anime[]

In A Home for Dwebble!, Cilan caught Dwebble after helping it retrieve its shell from a trouble-making trio of Dwebble. Since then, Cilan has used Dwebble in various battles. In Crisis at Chargestone Cave!, it evolved into a Crustle.

Origin & Inspiration[]

Dwebble is based on a hermit crab, which lives within a hollowed-out rock rather than a discarded seashell.

Dwebble may be a combination of dwell or dwelling and pebble.

Ishizumai may be a combination of 石 ishi (stone) and 住まい sumai (dwelling).
