Personality
Raticate is a very ferocious Pokémon, always screaming his name instead of simply saying it. He likes to show off his power, trying to intimidate other Pokémon to get their food. He knows when to give up, however, being deterred by Buneary's attack.
He is always eager for battle, even in challenges with an unfair advantage. This was shown when he desired to continue the Sprout Tower challenge against several foes at once.
