==Biology==
===Physiology===
Sunkern is a mostly yellow, {{wp|seed}}-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a small sprout growing out of its top. It has triangular, spike-like protrusions on top of its head, encircling the sprout. Its body has three broad, brown, vertical stripes. Two of the stripes start jaggedly above Sunkern's dark eyes and continue downward. The other stripe is directly below Sunkern's mouth. Since Sunkern's eyelids are brown, the brown streak patterning appears uninterrupted when Sunkern's eyes are closed. Its beady eyes are black with white pupils.

Sunkern’s body has three broad brown vertical stripes. Two of the stripes start jaggedly above Sunkern’s dark eyes, continuing downward. The other stripe is directly below Sunkern’s mouth. Since Sunkern’s eyelids are brown, the brown streak patterning appears uninterrupted when Sunkern’s eyes are closed.


====Gender differences====
Sunkern is known to be very weak. Aware of its weakness, it only feeds until it evolves. However, it feeds on only the dew from under the leaves of plants. It tries to move as little as possible since it tries to conserve all the nutrients it has stored in its body for evolution. If attacked by predators such as {{p|Spearow}}, it shakes its leaves at the attacker. Sunkern occasionally falls from the sky on early mornings for unknown reasons. A year after a cold summer, the population of Sunkern explodes. Sunkern can be found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon|temperate, grassy meadows}}.
None.


===Special abilities===
===Evolution===
At this stage of development, it is (statistically speaking) the weakest Pokémon in the game, with a base stat total of only 180. Although it has been stated that its only means of defending itself is violently thrashing its leaves at the attacker, it is capable of using a variety of Grass-type moves.
Sunkern evolves into {{p|Sunflora}}.


===Behavior===
<div style="float:center; display:flex; flex-flow:row wrap;">{{evobox-2
Sunkern have a tendency to fall from the sky on early mornings, though usually without any predictability. Sunkern tries to move as little as it possibly can, since it tries to conserve all the nutrients it has stored in its body for evolution. A year after a cold summer, the population of Sunkern explodes.

|no1=0191
===Habitat===
|name1=Sunkern
[[File:Grassland.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Grassland Pokémon}}]]
|type1-1=Grass
Sunkern are commonly found in [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]], but there have also been sightings in [[Sinnoh]]. They have also been imported to the [[Hoenn Safari Zone]].
|evo1=
Since they are known to randomly fall from the sky, they may also live up in trees.
|no2=0192
 
|name2=Sunflora
===Diet===
|type1-2=Grass
{{main|Pokémon food}}
}}</div>
It only drinks morning dew, found under plants' leaves, as well as its own. But it is sometimes found with the [[Coba Berry]]. Whether it eats this as well is unknown.
 
==In the anime==
[[File:EP187.png|right|200px|thumb|A Sunkern in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Sunkern made its debut appearance in ''[[EP187|Moving Pictures]]''.  {{Ash}}, {{an|Brock}}, {{an|Misty}}, and [[Todd Snap]] found it frozen in a field.  Ash eventually evolved it using his [[Sun Stone]] from ''[[EP161| The Bug Stops Here]]'', and it summoned more {{p|Sunflora}} so that [[Sophia]] and [[Marcello]] could take a picture for their golden anniversary.
 
===Minor appearances===
It also appeared in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part One]]''.
 
Sunkern also made a brief appearance in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'' and ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''.
 
A Sunkern's fossilized leaf made an appearance in a flashback in ''[[DP107|Ancient Family Matters!]]''.
 
A group of Sunkern appeared in ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]'' as a few of the many local Pokémon who lives in [[Crown City]]. Some took part in surrounding {{OBP|Zorua|M13}} in the park along with the other Pokémon to prepare to attack him, angry at Zorua for what {{OBP|Zoroark|M13}} did to the city. Before a fight broke out, the Sunkern, along with the other Pokémon were calmed by {{OBP|Celebi|M13}}.

==In the manga==
[[File:Sunbo Sunkern.png|thumb|125px|{{adv|Gold}}'s {{p|Sunflora}}, Sunbo, as a Sunkern]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
In {{PAV|8}}, {{adv|Gold}} encounters a herd of Sunkern escaping from a {{p|Skarmory}}. He captures one of the Sunkern to help defeat the Skarmory with [[Exbo]]'s {{m|Ember}} attack using its jumping Ability. Although not much of a battler and used sparingly, in {{PAV|14}}, she evolves into {{p|Sunflora}} and uses its {{m|Sunny Day}} to power up the {{p|Typhlosion}}'s fire attacks, helping it combat the [[Masked Man]].
