Barbaracle (Pokémon)

|}
Barbaracle (Japanese: ガメノデス Gamenodes) is a dual-type introduced in Generation VI.
It evolves from starting at level 39.
==Biology==
Barbaracle is a bipedal with a body that consists of two gray rocks connected by an orange, segmented waist. It has four orange arms connected to the upper rock. Its head is brown and resembles a left fist; there are four clawed fingers on top and a clawed thumb on its right cheek. Its face is orange with two eyes but no other distinguishable features. Each arm has a brown hand with a single eye in the center of the palm, four long claws, and a brown band around the middle. Its legs are also orange but have two brown bands and brown feet with four claws and a four-pointed star on the soles. 
Through evolution, two have multiplied into seven. Each limb thinks for itself and moves independently, though they usually follow the head's orders. Since each limb has an eye, it is able to see in all directions at once.
