Trivia

 * Razid's old design was drastically different than its current one. It originally was tan and electric blue, had a more jagged mouth, had cutesy electric blue irises, a shorter and curved electric blue mohawk, two electric blue tail spikes, and it had 2 long electric blue toes that didn't have claws at all. It was most likely redesigned this drastically to better reflect the Electric-type into its design.
