Its most notable characteristic is the bright red antennae ({{wp|osmeterium}}) on its head, from which it releases a stench to repel predators. These and the large eye-shaped markings help to startle predators. It shares many characteristics with other larval Pokémon such as {{p|Weedle}}, {{p|Wurmple}} and {{p|Sewaddle}}. | ||
