Trivia

    • If it were to have the k, its name would be Rattatak, and would have sounded like "Rat Attack"
  • Rattata is the first pure Normal-type in the National Pokédex order.
  • Rattata, Pikachu, Raichu, Sandshrew and Sandslash are all known as the Mouse Pokémon.
    • Despite its classification, Rattata appears to be based off a rat, rather than a mouse.
  • Every Generation has a two-stage, Normal-type Pokémon to be found early in the game. Rattata is the one from the First Generation.
  • A Rattata has the ability to use the F.E.A.R tactic. A plan that can have a very low level Rattata beat any Pokémon. The Rattata holds a focus sash and has to know Endeavor and Quick Attack. The Rattata is attacked and would faint unless holding the focus sash which holds it to one HP. The Rattata then uses endeavor, making the Pokémon the move hit go down to one HP. The Rattata then uses quick attack and unless the other Pokémon uses quick attack the Rattata will have knocked out the other Pokémon.
  • Out of all rodent like Pokemon appearing in the early games, Rattata is the only one who's normal colour is not brown.
