Cubone (カラカラ, Karakara in Japanese language versions) is a fictional creature in the Pokémon media franchise. It is a pure Ground type Pokémon, making an appearance in the earliest games.
Creature description
Cubone is a small, sensitive Pokémon whose actual appearance has never been discerned because it always wears a skull, which is that of its deceased mother, who dies whenever the Cubone is born. It attacks with bones.
Game History
Cubone first appeared in Pokémon Red and Green/Red and Blue, where a plot point required the player to travel up the graveyard Pokémon Tower and battle the spirit of Marowak, killed by Team Rocket, to put it to rest. It is the only wild Pokémon that cannot be caught in any way, as it dodges all Poké Balls thrown at it. Pokémon Tower was also the only place it could be caught, though it later started appearing in the Safari Zone in Pokémon Yellow.
Cubone also appeared in Pokémon Gold and Silver, though here, since Pokémon Tower had been converted into a Radio Station, Cubones had taken refuge in the nearby Rock Tunnel. Crystal Version added the possibility of buying one at the Goldenrod Game Corner, making an excellent early addition to the team.
Cubone did not reappear in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire and Emerald, nor did he appear in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl outside of swarming (a scenario after the Elite Four has been beaten in which a random Pokémon will suddenly appear in great multitude for about a day). Interestingly enough, Cubone was one of the possible starter Pokémon in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red/Blue Rescue Team, putting it alongside Bulbasaur, Charmander, Squirtle, Pikachu, Meowth, Psyduck, Machop, Chikorita, Cyndaquil, Totodile, Treecko, Torchic, Mudkip, and Skitty.
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl
As a stage element
Cubone is a Pokémon that appears on the Pokémon Stadium 2 stage on the Ground Type Stage. It has no effect on gameplay whatsoever.
Trophy Description
A Lonely Pokémon. It wears its mother's skull as a helmet-for this reason, no one has ever seen its face. It sometimes sees its departed mother's face in the full moon, which causes it to grow sad and cry. The stains on the skull are tracks of its tears. When it cries, the skull shakes and emits a mournful sound. When it levels up, it evolves into Marowak.
