Kabutops is an extinct creature that evolves from Kabuto at Level 40. Its body has a sleek shape which is perfect for swimming. Kabutops tuck in its limbs to become more compact and then wiggles its shell to move fast underwater. They are known to have swum underwater in search of prey, although they were apparently evolving to live on land due to changes observed in their gills and legs.
