Cranidos is a Rock-type Pokémon (National Dex #408) with a low stat total of 350. You can have one built for Scarlet & Violet, BDSP and Legends: Arceus, and every copy is generated through the same PKHeX legality engine Pokémon HOME uses on deposit.
Its best stat is Attack at 125, which makes it a slow but heavy-hitting attacker. Attack outweighs Special Attack by a clear margin, so an Adamant or Jolly nature and a physical move set play to its strengths. When you order one here you pick the nature, EV spread, IVs and Tera type yourself, so you can build the exact spread the set calls for rather than breeding for it.
Defensively, Cranidos takes super-effective damage from Water, Grass, Fighting, Ground, Steel. It resists Normal, Fire, Poison, Flying. Its ability options are Mold Breaker, Sheer Force, and you choose which one your copy carries.
Cranidos evolves into Rampardos (30). You can order any stage directly rather than raising it — useful when you want the final evolution at a specific level, or the pre-evolution with an egg move it can only learn early.
In-game, Cranidos has 12 recorded encounter locations across Scarlet & Violet (5), BDSP (5), Legends: Arceus (2) — listed in full below with levels, catchable marks and legal Poké Balls. A shiny Cranidos ordered here is built with a legal PID and Encryption Constant, so it passes the same checks a hunted one does.
