Black · Y · Alpha Sapphire

One swing of the sword incorporated in its armor can fell an opponent. A simple glare from one of them quiets everybody.

White

Part of the armor on its anterior legs becomes a giant sword. Its cry alone is enough to intimidate most enemies.

Black 2 · White 2 · X · Omega Ruby

In the time it takes a foe to blink, it can draw and sheathe the seamitars attached to its front legs.

Legends Arceus

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.
