Rattata (Koratta (コラッタ Koratta) in the original Japanese) is a basic normal-type Pokémon that evolves into Raticate at level 20. Small and very quick, Rattata is a common sight in many places; when food is available, it will produce offspring very quickly. Rattata is known for chewing on everything it finds.

Name Origin
"Rattata" is either a conjunction of "rat" and "attack," or a misspelling of "Rat-tat-tat," the sound that a machine gun makes. This makes sense because it is a "rapidly attacking rat."
Availability
In Pokémon Red/Blue, Pokémon Yellow and Pokémon Gold/Silver/Crystal, Rattata can be found in a variety of locations. In Pokémon Sapphire/Ruby, Rattata is not available at all.
Strengths / weaknesses
Rattata is vulnerable to Fighting, and is immune to Ghost.
