'''Rattata''' (Japanese: '''コラッタ''' ''Koratta'') is a {{type|Normal}}-[[Types|type]] [[Pokémon (species)|Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation I]]. Its most notable feature is its large teeth. Like most rodents, their teeth grow continuously throughout its life, and must be constantly worn down by gnawing.
