Larvitar usually lives in mountains, hills, and caves. It grows by consuming soil and will enter its pupal stage upon eating an entire mountain's worth of earth. Larvitar is born deep underground, far from its parent. It has a tail with a conical center surrounded by a ring of plate-like scales, causing it to resemble a tunnel-boring machine. Its short arms lack fingers, while its feet have a single toenail each. Red scales cover its diamond-shaped belly, and there are several small holes in its body.

It has a blunt spike on top of its head, a short, rounded snout, and triangular, black markings below and on the upper corners of its red eyes. Larvitar is a small, green reptilian Pokémon with rocky skin.
