Biology
Samurott is a quadruped, sea lion-esque Pokémon, radically different in appearance from Dewott. Part of the armor on its front legs can become a giant sword, and one swing of the sword incorporated in its armor can fell an opponent. A simple glare from one of them quiets everybody and its cry alone is enough to intimidate most enemies.
In the time it takes a foe to blink, it can draw and sheathe the armored swords attached to its front legs.
Design & origin
Sugimori decided to base the third evolution on a sea lion, with Oshawott's shell turning into a sword, and stated that Oshawott's evolution would have a Japanese style of design, citing their powerful nature, such as the "sound they made when they stamped on the ground". He intended Samurott to be a completely different shape from Oshawott.

Hard of heart and deft of blade, this rare form of Samurott is a product of the Pokémon's evolution in the region of Hisui. Its turbulent blows crash into foes like ceaseless pounding waves.
