Its story
Lifestyle
When danger comes, it takes the shape of a steel bridge and links its terminals to fire a very powerful beam. It lives in boreal mountains and evolves from Duraludon.
In the anime
In the series it battles under Drayton and defeats Roy's Kilowattrel. In the rematch, Drayton Terastallizes it into a Dragon type.
Name origin
Its look suggests cable-stayed bridges and folding bridges. The name Archaludon may join arch, a kind of bridge, with Duraludon.
