Raticate

Biology
Raticate are small, fat, rodent Pokémon with light brown and white coloured fur. Although they are depicted, they are quadruped. They have giant teeth in their mouth to attack the foe with powerful physical moves. They are able to run fastly as they improved that skill over centuries by escaping from other creatures such as Pokémon and people.

Behaviour
Raticate usually live far away from people who would harm them out of disgust. But when they have to appear before people, they tend to go in places as a group, rather than being alone. They usually live as a pack as a leader that guides naïve Rattata. It is not common to see a pack with two Raticate included. They are used to steal food from people and/or other Pokémon, which lead them to be in trouble most of the time. Because of their natural life conditions, they are able to run fast. They usually live in natural areas where fields and woods exist, and are close to the big cities.

Habitat
Raticate have been found or encountered as a wild Pokémon in Pallet Jungle located in Pallet Town and in Kanto.

Minor Appearances

 * A wild Raticate as the leader of his pack debuted in while  was running into the jungle to get his item from a Farfetch'd that Professor Oak had it at his laboratory. When  decided to provoke Redwald and his task, he left Redwald on the way and instead stood on the road. First the Rattata that Raticate had been guiding appeared to attack him, then Raticate made his appearance.


 * Another Raticate, along with a Rattata, appeared in, while Redwald was on . They appeared while Redwald was training with his Eevee on the road. They stole food from Redwald's backpack, and attempted to escape. But Redwald and Eevee stood before them, and stopped them. After they were challenged to a Pokémon Battle, Eevee dealt with both Pokémon one after another. In the battle, Eevee improved a new move, Double Team.
