Goomy looks like a light purple, vaguely slug-like pile of goo. The top half of its body is a lighter purple than its bottom half, and the two halves are separated by a squiggly, dark purple outline decorated with five green dots. It has beady eyes, and it has two rows of two horn-like structures on top of its head.
Goomy is widely considered the weakest Dragon-type Pokémon. It hides in damp and shady places, such as swamps, to prevent its slimy body from drying out. As seen in the anime, its diet consists of leaves.
In the X & Y arc, two Team Flare Grunts, guarding the entrance to their base, each used a Goomy to stop Emma's advance, but Emma calmly used her Espurr's extrasensory powers to knock out both Goomy.
Goomy greatly resembles the prehistoric wiwaxia. Goomy seems to be based on soft bodied gastropods, such as slugs and nudibranch; its typing and eventual dragon design in evolution may be a reference to the "blue dragon" sea slug. It may also be based upon the concept of living slime in popular culture.
Name origin
Goomy may be a combination of goo and gummy or slimy.
Numera is derived from 滑る numeru (to be slippery) and ぬらぬら nuranura (onomatopoetic word for slimy).
