'''Wurmple''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ケムッソ''' ''Kemusso'') is a {{type|Bug}} Pokémon.
'''Wurmple''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ケムッソ''' ''Kemusso'') is a {{type|Bug}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].


Wurmple will evolve into either {{p|Silcoon}} or {{p|Cascoon}} starting at [[level]] 7 depending on its [[personality value]]. As personality values cannot be influenced by the player, what a given Wurmple will evolve into is essentially random. From there, the Silcoon or Cascoon will evolve again starting at level 10 into {{p|Beautifly}} or {{p|Dustox}} respectively.
Wurmple will [[Evolution|evolve]] into either {{p|Silcoon}} or {{p|Cascoon}} starting at [[level]] 7 depending on its [[personality value#Wurmple's evolution|personality value]]. As personality values cannot be influenced or seen by the player, what a given Wurmple will evolve into is essentially random. From there, the Silcoon or Cascoon will evolve again starting at level 10 into {{p|Beautifly}} or {{p|Dustox}} respectively.

==Biology==

Wurmple is a small, caterpillar-like Pokémon. Its body is mostly red, with a cream underside and face. Its eyes are large and yellow with dark pupils. It has a sharp yellow stinger on its head and two on its rear. Behind its forehead stinger is a tall, erect, red spine with a similar, smaller spine behind that. It has small spikes running down the top portions of its body and five pairs of stubby white limbs.


====Gender differences====
Wurmple has suction pads at the tips of its feet, which allow it to cling to glass or tree branches without slipping. It can spit white silk that turns gooey when exposed to the air. To defend itself, it can release poison from its tail spikes, which can weaken foes. Wurmple's diet consist of leaves and sap, the latter of which it gets by pulling bark off trees. Wurmple are abundant and live in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|forests}}. It is unknown why Wurmple evolves into either {{p|Silcoon}} or {{p|Cascoon}}, and not even Wurmple's appearance gives a hint to which species it will evolve into. {{p|Taillow}}, {{p|Swellow}}, and {{p|Starly}} are natural predators of Wurmple.
None.


===Special abilities===
===Evolution===
Wurmple’s feet are tipped with suction pads, allowing it to cling to glass or tree branches without slipping. Wurmple can also {{M|String Shot|spit a white silk}} that turns sticky when it comes in contact with air. Wurmple can also release poison from the spikes on its rear end.
Wurmple evolves into either {{p|Silcoon}}, which evolves into {{p|Beautifly}}, or evolves into {{p|Cascoon}}, which evolves into {{p|Dustox}}.


===Behavior===
<div style="float:center; display:flex; flex-flow:row wrap;">
Bird Pokémon such as {{P|Swellow}} and {{P|Starly}} target Wurmple for prey, and Wurmple desperately resists by pointing the venomous spikes on its rear and leaking poison at the foe, weakening it.

* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]]: Wurmple is one of the members of Team Tasty, alongside {{p|Swellow}}. A running joke is that Wurmple is terrified that Swellow is going to eat him, and that's why he named their team that. Only at the end of the game does Swellow realize that Wurmple is afraid of him.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Wurmple shares the same [[species]] name with {{p|Caterpie}}: They are both known as Worm Pokémon.  This also holds true for Wurmple's evolutions, whose species name is also shared by other [[Generation I]] Pokémon.
* Wurmple shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Caterpie}} and {{p|Snom}}. They are all known as the Worm Pokémon.
* Wurmple is the only Pokémon whose branched evolutions evolve further. All other Pokémon with a branch in their evolutionary line either evolve once before the branch or do not have any other evolutionary event besides the one which is branched.
* Wurmple is the only Pokémon whose [[evolution]] is directly influenced by its [[personality value#Wurmple's evolution|personality value]].
* Wurmple, along with {{p|Caterpie}} and {{p|Weedle}}, evolves at level 7, the lowest level required for any Pokémon that evolves by leveling up.
** Pokémon whose evolution are influenced by their [[gender]] also evolve based on their personality value, although, unlike Wurmple, their determined evolution can be known in advance.
** Also, their known {{Abilities}} are same, {{a|Shield Dust}} and {{a|Run Away}}.
** By evolving Wurmple to Silcoon or Cascoon, and then exiting the game without saving, it is possible to learn which form Wurmple will take without irreversibly evolving it. As the [[personality value#Wurmple's evolution|personality value]] is a static value, [[soft resetting]] to revert it to a Wurmple and evolving that same Wurmple again will never result in a different evolution from the prior attempt.
* Wurmple is the only Pokémon whose evolution is directly influenced by its [[personality value]]. Pokémon whose evolution is influenced by their [[gender]] are also technically evolving based on their personality value, although unlike Wurmple, their determined evolution can be known in advance.
* Prior to [[Generation VI]], Wurmple's shape was [[File:Body02.png|32px]].
* Wurmple has on occasion been erroneously depicted with a yellow horn on the back of its head. This design notably appears in it sprites for {{g|Pinball}}: [[File:PinRSani265.png]]. It also appeared in prerelease materials for {{g|Legends: Arceus}}, but was removed in the release version.


===Origin===
===Origin===
Wurmple is based on a {{wp|caterpillar}}. It also appears to resemble an {{wp|earwig}} somewhat.
Wurmple is based on a {{wp|caterpillar}},<ref name=ND84>''Nintendo Dream'' Volume 84, February/March 2003 ([http://lavacutcontent.com/sugimori-masuda-gen-3-interview/ English translation] written by Jacob Newcomb and commissioned by Dr. Lava)</ref> perhaps specifically the {{wp|Battus philenor|pipevine swallowtail}} larva due to its red color and the many nodules along its body.
 
According to [[Ken Sugimori]] in an interview, Wurmple was intentionally designed to be similar to Caterpie, and is meant to fill in for Caterpie's role in the [[Hoenn]] region, i.e. being a simple evolutionary line that can teach new players the concept of Pokémon [[evolution]].<ref name=ND84/>


====Name origin====
====Name origin====
Wurmple is a combination of ''{{wp|worm}}'' and ''rumple'' (referring to the wrinkled texture of its skin). The ending of Wurmple may also come from ''simple''.
Wurmple may be a combination of ''{{wp|worm}}'' and ''rumple'' (creased or wrinkled in texture) or ''simple''.


Kemusso is derived from 毛虫 ''kemushi'' (caterpillar).
