Spinarak (Pokémon): Difference between revisions

**However, its original [[Ken Sugimori]] artwork is green. Its coloration in Gold and Silver could be attributed to its only appearing at [[Nocturnal Pokémon|night]].

* Spinarak can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Ledyba}}. Both of them are {{type|Bug}} {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}}. Spinarak is exclusive to {{game3|Gold and Silver|Pokémon Gold|s}} and {{game3|HeartGold and SoulSilver|HeartGold|s}}, while Ledyba is exclusive to {{game3|Gold and Silver|Pokémon Silver|s}} and {{game3|HeartGold and SoulSilver|SoulSilver|s}}. Spinarak are nocturnal, while Ledyba are matutinal. Additionally, their rarity is also reversed, with Spinarak being more common in {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Pokémon FireRed|s}}, and Ledyba in {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|Pokémon LeafGreen|s}}. Both were also added to the expanded {{safari|Hoenn}} in {{v2|Emerald}}, and both can only be obtained by breeding their evolved forms in {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Pokémon Diamond, Pearl,|s}} {{v2|Platinum}}, {{game3|Black and White|Black, and White|s}}. Additionally, in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Black 2]] its {{p|Ariados|evolution}} swarms on {{rt|22|Unova}} while {{p|Ledian|Ledyba's evolution}} does so in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|White 2]].

===Origin===

Spinarak shares coloring and appearance with the {{wp|Theridion grallator|Happy Face Spider}}, an arachnid from Hawaii that seems to have a face on its abdomen.
