Cherrim [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Cherrim|changes appearance]] in [[Harsh sunlight|sunny weather]].

Cherrim is a small Pokémon with two different forms, both of which are dependent on the [[weather]]. During normal weather conditions, Cherrim is in its Overcast Form. Two purple petals enclose its deep pink body. A short purple stem and a green leafy sepal sprout from the top of the petals. Its eyes appear to be near its short legs in this form.

When there is strong sunlight, Cherrim is in its Sunshine Form. Pink petals similar to cherry blossoms surround its head and cover its chest. Several of the petals radiate outward from a yellow sphere on the back of its head. There is a small, triangular patch of green on its neck. Additionally, two berry-like orbs, resembling cherry-shaped hair ornaments, adorn its head. It has stubby limbs, with the arms being pink and the legs being yellow.

Cherrim waits quietly as a bud for a ray of sunlight. When it is hit with strong sunlight, it blooms and absorbs the rays with its entire body. It quickly changes from quiet to excitable and active. It will attempt to make up for everything it had to endure as a bud while the sunlight lasts. Once the light is gone, Cherrim folds back into a bud.

* Cherrim and {{p|Castform}} are the only Pokémon whose alternate forms cannot be viewed in the [[Pokédex]] in {{3v2|Diamond|Pearl|Platinum}}. Only the Overcast Form and its {{DL|Gender|gender differences}} (though it has none) are available, but it is not labeled as such.

Cherrim's reaction to light is apparently based on {{wp|Nastic movements|photonastic flowers}}. Cherrim Sunshine Form seems to be based on {{wp|cherry blossom}}s, flowers that are particularly {{wp|Prunus serrulata|symbolic of Japan}}.

Cherrim is a combination of ''cherry'' and ''cherubim'' or ''blossom''. It may also involve ''{{wp|cherimoya}}'' (a fruit-bearing tree) or ''tirim'' (Irish for ''dry'', as in dry weather).
