Gym Series || BROCK || Pokémon FireRed Part #010 Rocket Hideout
Welcome back to part ten! This part sees Gemma head out into Celadon City proper and stumbles upon the Rocket Hideout in the casino. Granted, it's not like the guard on duty did them any favors... Anyway, this is where we'll get the Silph Scope!

~Trivia~
Similar to how Kabuto is based on horseshoe crabs, Kabutops resembles eurypterids, prehistoric arthropods that hunted in seas and rivers and are believed to have been related to modern horseshoe crabs. The large head is also identical to the cephalon in trilobites and the spines down the back resemble their thoracic sections, though the scythes and predatory nature closely resemble eurypterids more. Because of the cross-similarities, it may also be based on the Cheirurus genus of trilobites.
Kabutops's name derives from both the Japanese words 兜 kabuto (helmet) and 兜蟹 kabutogani (horseshoe crab). The end of its name may derive from the Greek word ops (face), or it might refer to the living fossil triops or the fact that its helmet is now on the top of its head and no longer covers its whole body.
