Special abilities
Ulgamoth releases fiery scales from its six wings to create a sea of fire. It is said that its fires can replace the sun when it is dark with ash.
It is the only one of these to learn Fly and Magnet Rise.
It learns a new move by level up each tenth level, the only exception being level 59.
Origin
Ulgamoth is based on a moth, particularly the Atlas moth. Conceptwise, it may be based on a solar deity, a type of god said to be able to control various aspects of the sun such as sunrise, sunset, eclipses, position, etc. Its wings may be based on the petals of a tiger lily, having the same number of extensions, black spots, and red-orange coloring.
