Wormadam (Japanese: ミノマダム Minomadam) is a Bug-type Pokémon.

It evolves from female Burmy starting at level 20. It is one of Burmy's final forms, the other being Mothim.

It has three different secondary types: Steel, Grass, and Ground, determined by its cloak. Its cloak is permanent and determined by the cloak that Burmy was in when it last battled.

• In its Plant Cloak, it is Bug/Grass-type.
• In its Sandy Cloak, it is Bug/Ground-type.
• In its Trash Cloak, it is Bug/Steel-type.

Biology

Wormadam is a black, bagworm-like Pokémon with a coat of leaves, sand, or building insulation that has fused with its body. It has oval eyes, a long pointed beak, and a long antenna with a coiled tip. The beak is tipped with varying colors depending on the coat. The coat forms a pair of arm-like structures near this Pokémon’s head. The Plant Cloak form has several white flowers covering it, and gives Wormadam a green-tipped beak and large leaves for arms. It will be dotted with reddish-brown rocks, and have chains of pebbles for arms and a brown tipped beak if it has the Sandy Cloak. When covered by the Trash Cloak, it has a pink tipped beak and long, dark pink ribbons for arms. Wormadam that evolve on cold days are said to form thicker cloaks. It is a female-only species, with Mothim as its male counterpart.
