Under its "blanket" are darker green limp leaves which trail under its body.

On its back are the veins of the leaf as well as its stumpy tail.

Trivia

• Kurumayu is currently the final Pokémon in National Pokédex that evolves via happiness.

Origin

Kurumayu is based on the caterpillar of the Epargyreus clarus during chrysalis. Epargyreus clarus fold leaves over themselves for shelter as they age and, when cocooning, eventually use silk to stick the leaves together and form its chrysalis.

Name origin

Its name is likely a combination of 包む kurumu, to wrap up, and 繭 mayu, cocoon.
