Character info
The character
Drapion is a Poison and Dark-type Pokémon that evolves from Skorupi. Known for its heavily armored exoskeleton and powerful pincers, it is noted in Pokémon lore for favoring brute physical force over its potent venom. It has enough crushing strength in its claws to be compared to crumpling a car.
