Vileplume (Pokémon): Difference between revisions

Vileplume is a blue, bipedal Pokémon with rudimentary hands and feet. It has beady red eyes and a small mouth. On its head is massive red flower with an orange-brown center. Vileplume's flower is said to have the largest petals in the world and is almost too heavy for the Pokémon itself to support. The rounded petals of the flower are red and covered with white spots. A female Vileplume has fewer, but larger, spots on its petals. It can shake, flap, or burst its petals into bloom with a bang in order to release clouds of pollen. This pollen is highly allergenic to humans and toxic to other Pokémon; Vileplume uses it to paralyze its prey. It can also utilize these petals in its former [[signature move]], {{m|Petal Dance}}. Being the result of an evolution via [[evolutionary stone]], Vileplume is rarely found in the wild, though they can be found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|grassy plains}}. It is often mistaken for local flowers in the wild.
