📖 Pokédex entry in English and Japanese
Despite the smallness of its body, Totodile’s jaws are very powerful. While the Pokémon may think it is just playfully nipping, its bite has enough power to cause serious injury.体は小さいが、ワニノコの顎は非常に強力だ。ポケモン自身は遊び半分で軽く噛んでいると思っているかもしれないが、その噛みつきは深刻な怪我を負わせるほどの威力を持っている。
