Larvesta is a fuzzy, moth larva-like Pokémon. It has blue eyes in a shadowed face. Its white mane of fuzz encompasses its head and the upper half of its body, while its lower half is brown. It has three pairs of small black legs. There are five orange, slightly whorled horns on the sides of its head, which it can use to spit fire as a defensive tactic to deter predators. It has been seen using fire it spits from these horns to fly. It lives at the feet of volcanoes.<br/><br/><br/>

===Origin===
===Origin===
Larvesta is based on a {{wp|moth}} and the famed Japanese monument, the {{wp|Tower of the Sun}}. Larvesta appears to be based on an {{wp|Attacus atlas|Atlas moth}} larva. The way its red growths are shaped and positioned on its circular body may be a reference to the sun, or to the ''Daimonji''. It may also be based on a {{wp|torch}}.
