Cherubi (Japanese: チェリンボ Cherinbo) is a Grass-type Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.

It evolves into Cherrim starting at level 25.

Biology

Cherubi is a small, cherry-like Pokémon with a round, deep-pink body with two stubby feet. The body becomes redder when bathed in sunlight, which signals that it has stockpiled a lot of nutrients. It has beady eyes and a purple-red stripe running down part of its face. Cherubi has a short stem with two big, green leaves and a second, much smaller head growing out of it. This second head is vestigial in terms of function, but it contains nutrients that contribute to Cherubi's growth as its initial source of food. The second head is apparently edible and has a sweet taste, and several Pokémon such as Starly have been seen trying to pluck it off. When the second head begins to bloom and wilt, it means Cherubi is close to evolving. The second head detaches after Cherubi evolves, which become food for other creatures. Cherubi is attracted to honey.

Major appearances

Cherubi debuted in The Grass-type Is Always Greener!, under the ownership of Gardenia. It was first used in a battle against Ash. It faced off against Turtwig, and during the battle, Gardenia was able to learn quite a bit about Turtwig. Cherubi reappeared in The Grass Menagerie!, where it once again fought Turtwig during an official Gym battle. Its speed forced Ash to recall Turtwig for Staravia, after which Cherubi was defeated.

In Battling a Cute Drama!, Marilyn used a Cherubi in a battle against Dawn. It went up against Buneary, who it defeated. Later, it battled Brock's Sudowoodo, but this match was declared a tie by James, who was acting as referee.

Pokédex entries

Episode Pokémon Source Entry

DP125 Cherubi Ash's Pokédex Cherubi, the Cherry Pokémon. Cherubi's attached small ball holds the nutrients needed for its evolution.

In the manga

A Cherubi appeared in A Fresh Start.

Pokémon Adventures

Cherubi first appeared in Ring Around the Roserade I. Gardenia used a Cherubi alongside her Roserade in a Double Battle against Platinum's Prinplup and Ponyta. After Piplup evolved into Prinplup, Cherubi's Grass Knot became more effective against the heavier Pokémon, leaving the Penguin Pokémon in a difficult situation. However, Platinum took advantage of the cover that the knots gave and the holes that Roserade's poison whips created to deliver a finishing Blizzard that defeated both her Pokémon.

A Trainer's Cherubi appeared in Tackling Togekiss.

Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!

Gardenia's Cherubi was Hareta's first opponent in Win with Teamwork!!. It attempted to use Leech Seed on Hareta's Shinx, but was quickly felled by its Bite.
