Code Lyoko Wiki

The Kalamar is one of the monsters that live in the Digital Sea, debuting in the fourth season of Code Lyoko. It has an oval black/grey body with four long legs sticking out of it. The Eye of X.A.N.A. is located in the middle of the Kalamar's body. Its movements mimic that of a squid. Unlike other monsters, the Kalamar's primary weapons are not lasers; instead, its enormous legs hold the target still while it uses its drill to attack. This monster was designed to destroy the warriors while in the Digital Sea, ensuring permanent deletion by taking a more "hands on" approach.

Trivia

  • The Kalamar is the second-largest monster created by X.A.N.A.; it is approximately the size of the Scyphozoa.
  • Like the Scyphozoa, this monster has only been destroyed once. However, it appears to follow the Scyphozoa's fighting style: wait for the target to be isolated by other monsters, then attack.
  • This monster is perfectly balanced between the Scyphozoa and the rest of XANA's monsters. While it is meant for offense, it doesn't attack with any sort of projectile. Instead, it gets close enough to its prey with a more direct attack with its drill.
  • In French, "calamar" means squid. Following the tradition of monsters' names replacing the letter C with a K, this monster was named Kalamar. In English, the name can be equated to calamari.
  • Like the Sharks and Kongres, this monster follows the Digital Sea's underwater motif.
  • While only appearing once in Season 4 (in the episode Cousins Once Removed) and never in Code Lyoko Evolution, they are quite common in the games Quest for Infinity and Fall of X.A.N.A..
  • In Quest for Infinity, there are 3 varieties of the Kalamar. The first is the kind seen in the show, that latches onto vessels and drills. The second variety is similar, but less than 1/3rd of the size. The third variety is the same size as the standard kind, but differently colored. The differently colored version uses a Circular Laser rather than a drill.
