Summary

Barbaracle Mega is a dual Water/Rock-type Pokémon and the Mega Evolution of Barbaracle.

Type: Water / Rock

Abilities:

  • Tough Claws: Boosts the power of moves that make direct contact
  • (Concept) Some depictions keep Barbaracle’s usual abilities prior to Mega evolution

Physical Characteristics:

  • Bulkier, jagged rock plates with coral-like spikes
  • Central “hand-head” becomes larger with pronounced horn-like ridges
  • Additional barnacle arms sprout from shoulders and forearms
  • Orange limb bands darken; palms’ eyes glow when powered up

Behavior and Habitat:

  • Clings to cliff faces in storm-battered coastal zones
  • Highly territorial; coordinates with its own limbs like a small colony
  • Uses multiple arms to harry foes and control battlefield positioning
  • Remains active during rough tides and heavy surf

In Battle:

  • Physical attacker with strong setup options
  • Signature moves: Shell Smash, Stone Edge, Liquidation
  • Strong against Fire, Ice, and Flying types
  • Weak against Grass, Electric, Fighting, and Ground types

Evolution:

  • Evolves from Binacle at level 39 (into Barbaracle)
  • Mega Evolves into Barbaracle Mega when holding a Mega Stone (e.g., “Barbaracite”)

Interesting Facts:

  • Theme emphasizes many limbs acting in concert—like a living reef
  • The “hand-head” directs the other arms, enabling multi-angle strikes
  • Design draws inspiration from barnacles, coral, and storm-swept rock formations

Flavor Text Entries

  • X: When they evolve, two Binacle multiply into seven. They fight with the power of seven Binacle.
  • Y: Barbaracle’s legs and hands have minds of their own, and they will move independently. But they usually follow the head’s orders.
  • Omega-Ruby: When they evolve, two Binacle multiply into seven. They fight with the power of seven Binacle.
  • Alpha-Sapphire: Barbaracle’s legs and hands have minds of their own, and they will move independently. But they usually follow the head’s orders.
  • Sword: Seven Binacle come together to form one Barbaracle. The Binacle that serves as the head gives orders to those serving as the limbs.
  • Shield: Having an eye on each palm allows it to keep watch in all directions. In a pinch, its limbs start to act on their own to ensure the enemy’s defeat.
