Biology

Despite having an aggressive temper, Scrafty takes very good care of its family, friends, and territory.

Design & origin

Scrafty's loose skin is reminiscent of the sagging pants and hoods associated with urban youth subcultures, and balaclavas worn around New York City, the basis for the Unova region.

Forms

Mega Scrafty

Mega Scrafty gains white cloth around its body, which is stated to be its own shed skin.
