Krokorok is a bipedal crocodile-like Pokémon introduced in the fifth generation games. It is the middle form of Sandile's evolutionary cycle and evolves into Krookodile.

Information

A Sandile evolves into Krokorok at Level 29. They typically live in groups composed of a few individuals. A Krokorok has a special protective membrane around its eyes which shields its eyes from sandstorms. The membrane also can sense the heat around it, while allows Krokorok to see even in darkness.

Krokorok evolves into Krookodile at Level 40.

Appearances

Mainstream Games

In Pokémon: Black and White Versions, they commonly appear in the lower levels of Relic Castle.

Other Appearances

Other Media

• In the Pokémon anime, the sunglasses-wearing Sandile which had started following Ash around eventually evolved into a Krokorok during a battle with Ash's Pikachu. Despite the freshly evolved Krokorok's advantage, Pikachu won.

Trivia

• Its name seems to be a play on a combination between "crocodile" and "rock" (possibly as in "rock and roll" due to its sunglasses-like membrane).
