Physiology

Scraggy is a small bipedal, lizard-like Pokémon. Its body is mainly yellow in color, with a red scaly belly; below the yellow portion of its head, its body is cream-colored. It has large, bulgy ovular eyes with black pupils that are set to the sides of its head. Its white teeth appear to be constantly exposed, giving it a grinning appearance. It has two tiny nostrils above its grinning mouth. There is a small red scale atop its yellow head. Scraggy has loose, yellow shed skin around its legs, resembling baggy trousers. Some of the loose skin around its legs to trails off to form or cover its tail. Scraggy’s shed skin “pants” are very elastic and can be pulled up to its neck, which enables it to reduce the damage it takes from attacks.

Trivia

  • Scraggy and its evolution Scrafty are the only Fighting type Pokémon that are immune to Psychic attacks, due to their primary typing being Dark.
  • Scraggy's pants-like skin looks similar to the PokéManiac's pants from FireRed and LeafGreen.

Origin

Scraggy is based on a lizard that is shedding its skin.

Etymology

Scraggy's English name may be based on the actual word "scraggy" which means thin/scrawny. It may also be a combination of the words "scruffy" (a way to describe someone's untidiness), "scrappy", and "baggy" (to describe its "pants").
