Drapion

() is a /-type Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Drapion is a large, purple, scorpion-like Pokémon. Its eyes are a pointed shape, with blue-colored upper portions. Drapion has two small, pointed protrusions between its eyes, and one on the back of its head. Drapion also has protrusions on its jaws, two on the upper and three on the lower, with large, fang-like, white-colored features extending from its mouth. Its body is composed of many violet-to-lavender body segments which end with a tail with two stingers. Drapion has four segmented legs with pointed toes. Its most distinguishing feature is its huge claws. It can turn its head 180 degrees.
===Behavior===
Drapion are aggressively territorial by nature, relentlessly attacking anyone that encroaches on their land. This has given them rather poor reputations as "Sand Demons", as they are known for attacking desert travelers seemingly out of nowhere. In the past, desert caravans feared Drapion far more than they did thieves, keeping Cornn Berries on hand under the belief that they would keep them at bay. It was thought that their scent deterred Drapion and other poisonous creatures found in the desert. Drapion use their tough pincers to tear apart foes; they are powerful enough to turn cars into piles of scrap metal. In addition to their strength, their claws can also inject a fatal venom that leaves victims in excruciating pain before they succumb to it. Their sturdy bodies are a source of pride among the species; while their venom is very powerful, they prefer to defeat foes using only brute force to demonstrate their power. Despite their strength, however, in areas where they are found together, Drapion will usually acquiesce to Hippowdon in territorial disputes.
==Evolution==
Drapion evolves from Skorupi starting at level 40.
