Arctozolt (Japanese:パッチルドンPatchilldon) is a dual-typeElectric/IceFossil Pokémon introduced inGeneration VIII.

It is revived from combining aFossilized Bird and aFossilized Dino. It is not known toevolve into or from any other Pokémon, but appears to be related toDracozolt andArctovish.

Biology

Arctozolt is a hybrid fossilPokémon. It has a light-blue body with a snow-like patch on the top. Its body has blue fins with white patches on the ends and some spots. It has a plesiosaur-like tail with a fin on top. It has two yellow hands. Arctozolt has aparavian-like head with closed eyes and a blue spot on each cheek. It produces mucus from its nose.

By shaking its freezing upper half, Arctozolt can generate electricity. It was known to live on ancient shores and preserved its food with the ice on its body. It allegedly went extinct because it moved very slowly, but this is likely not the case due to Arctozolt being combined from two separate Pokémon that each had their niches before going extinct.

Arctozolt and its counterpartDracozolt arethe only known Pokémon capable of learning themoveBolt Beak.

Trivia

• Arctozolt shares itscategory withAerodactyl,Dracozolt,Dracovish, andArctovish. They are all known as the Fossil Pokémon.
• Arctozolt, Dracozolt, Dracovish, and Arctovish are the onlyFossil Pokémon to not beRock-type or have agender.
• Arctozolt, along with the other Galarian Fossil Pokémon, was designed byHitoshi Ariga.^[1]
• InPokémon Journeys: The Series,Bray Zenn is the person who gives Arctozolt its species name.

Origin

Arctozolt, likeDracozolt,Dracovish, andArctovish, may be based on the concept ofchimera in paleontology, which refers to fossils reconstructed from multiple different species or genus of animals, resulting in an inaccurate and mistaken understanding of the animals' biology. In the case of Arctozolt, its top half appears to be based on adromaeosaurid, while its bottom half appears to be based on a marine reptile, like aplesiosaur,mosasaur, orichthyosaur. Arctozolt and the other Galarian Fossil Pokémon may also be based on theCrystal Palace Dinosaurs, a series of scientifically inaccurate dinosaur sculptures displayed at theCrystal Palace Park. Arctozolt may particularly reference theIchthyosaurus statue included in the series. The mucus it possesses is likely inspired by the fact that cold weather often results in a runny nose.

The Pokédex entries for all the Galarian Fossil Pokémon mention them being the cause of their extinction, which may be a reference to the outdated hypothesis that the dinosaurs were evolutionarily inert, which made them get bigger, stupider, and more sluggish, to the point they could not sustain themselves.

Arctozolt being unable tobreed could be a reference tocross-bred animals, which are borninfertile (unable to produce offspring).

Name origin

Arctozolt may be a combination ofarctic andvolt orjolt.

Patchilldon may be a combination of パチパチpachipachi (onomatopoeia for crackling),chill, and-don (common suffix in dinosaur names derived from the Ancient Greek word for tooth).
