It is resurrected from a Skull Fossil and evolves into Rampardos starting at level 30. Cranidos is a brown, dinosaur-like Pokémon that is identical to the Pachycephalosaur. This has a hooked beak, red irises and a rough, dark, dome-shaped head on its back with four spikes. It has stubby arms with three claws; it can strike with them, given the stubbornness. The back half has a broad, spiky blue pattern and a short tail. This has three front paws at its knees and one backwards. The key attacking skill includes smashing the enemies head-first. Hundred million years ago, as it existed in thick woods and jungles, it would use headbutts to knock obstructing trees off its food, and battle other Pokémon like Aerodactyl. Notably, there is little sophistication behind it.

How Much Useful Is My Cranidos?
Cranidos is a Pokémon in Stone. This is prone to motions of Iron, Land, Combat, Air and Grass. The best moveset for Cranidos is Zen Headbutt & Ancient Strength, with a Max CP of 1.820. Cranidos grows through Rampardos. Rampardos (or Cranidos) is a highly aggressive Pokemon with the game’s second strongest Battle. With a Choice Band / Scarfed Head Smash Slash, Cranidos can OHKO just about everything but he has poor Defenses and Pace, quite a weakness, right?.
So, does the Moveset, weakness, and other information seem worthy of Cranidos Evolution? Then right away head to Cranidos Evolution.
And if the case is otherwise then you may like to see some other Pokemon Evolution rather than the one for Cranidos and can see for whatever Moveset, weakness, and other specification suits better. Visit Herald Journalism for that!
