Oshawott is a sea otter-like Pokémon that stands on two legs. It has a round white head with small blue ears and dark eyes. Its nose resembles an oval shape and is orange in color. Freckles cover its cheeks, which may be premature whiskers. Two pointed teeth are visible when it opens its mouth. The light blue fur on its body forms bubbles around its neck. Oshawott's arms are white and rounded while its feet have three toes each and are dark blue. It also has a tail that resembles a rudder, which is dark blue in color. On its belly, it carries a pale yellow seashell called "scalchop," made of the same material as its claws. This shell can be used for battles or cracking hard berries. If heavily damaged or lost, Oshawott can grow a new scalchop from its navel.
