Biology

It will procreate and form nests anywhere that has enough food; each nest contains at least 40 Rattata. The colony spends entire days scavenging for food. A cautious species, it constantly listens around by moving its ears.

Its incisor teeth do not stop growing, so it gnaws on hard objects, like table legs and door frames, to keep them ground down. Due to their commonness and habits of stealing food and gnawing on structures, it and Raticate are considered invasive species.
