Anorith (アノプス Anopusu?, Anopth in original Japanese language versions) are one of the 493 fictional species of Pokémon creatures from the multi-billion-dollar[1] Pokémon media franchise—a collection of video games, anime, manga, books, trading cards, and other media created by Satoshi Tajiri. The purpose of Anorith in the games, anime, and manga, as with all other Pokémon, is to battle both wild Pokémon—untamed creatures encountered while the player passes through various environments—and tamed Pokémon owned by Pokémon trainers.[2] The name Anorith refers to the species as a whole and individual specimens in the games, anime, manga, trading cards and other media.

Role

In the video games

Anorith are only found in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, as well as Pokemon Diamond and Pearl. They are an "extinct" Pokémon, meaning they cannot be found in the wild and must be resurrected from the claw fossil (comparable to Omanyte and Kabuto). Ironically, they are weak to water type attacks. This is due to their rock type, but as Pokemon that long ago lived in water they should have an immunity to water type attacks (all ancient Pokémon are Rock types, being a fossil). Being a first-stage Pokémon, Anorith's stats are not particularly impressive, excluding its relatively good Attack. It is also faster than its evolution, Armaldo.
