Cubone, known in Japan as Karakara (カラカラ), is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak’s Pokémon franchise. Designed by Ken Sugimori and first introduced in Pokémon Red and Blue, it is referred to as the “Lonely Pokémon”, as it is a Pokémon that used its mother’s skull as a helmet after her death. In Pokémon Origins, Cubone is a child of a dead Marowak that died while defending it from Team Rocket. Numerous reviewers of the Pokemon franchise have commented that this background story makes Cubone one of the most memorable Pokémon, with reviewers placing its backstory on design on a spectrum ranging from touching but sad to depressing and creepy.
Cubone wears the skull of its dead mother as a helmet, and is known as the “Lonely Pokémon” because of its tendency to keep to itself and avoid social situations, due to the trauma caused by the death of its mother. On the night of a full moon, the cries are said to be especially terrible. Cubone seems to recognize its mother in the full moon, and so it howls with a particular sadness. Its cries attract Mandibuzz, a natural predator. The stains on the skull the Pokémon wears are made by the tears it sheds. Marowak is the evolved form of Cubone, once it overcomes its sadness with its mother’s death. In the games, Cubone instead evolves after reaching a certain experience level. It was also stated that Marowak was Cubone’s mother being killed by the Team Rocket.
