==Biology==
Kakuna is a yellow, {{wp|insect}} cocoon-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Kakuna has a dome-shaped head and black, triangular eyes with glowing white pupils. It has two scythe-like arms in the middle of its body. When it comes close to evolving, its body gives off heat that makes it warm to the touch. Kakuna remains virtually immobile and waits for evolution, often hanging from tree branches by long strands of silk. When attacked, however, it can extend its poison barbs. Kakuna nests in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|temperate forests}} and misty wooded areas. Occasionally, it will also nest at the mouth of tunnels and caves, as seen in [[Pokémon Snap]].
 
===Evolution===
Kakuna evolves from {{p|Weedle}} and evolves into {{p|Beedrill}}.
 
(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data→Evolution data]].)

==Trivia==
[[File:Bandai Kakuna card.jpg|thumb|150px|Kakuna's arms extended in [[Ken Sugimori]] artwork]]
* Kakuna shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Metapod}}, {{p|Silcoon}}, and {{p|Cascoon}}. They are all known as the Cocoon Pokémon.
** They also share the same [[Base stats|base stat]] total, move learnset, [[Ability]], and EV yield.
*** This ties them as the evolved Pokémon with the lowest base stat total.
* Kakuna has the lowest base {{stat|Attack}} stat of all {{type|Poison}} Pokémon.
* In the [[Pokémon Red and Green beta|Pokémon Red and Blue beta]], "Kokoon" was the prototype English name for Kakuna. This is similar to its romanized Japanese name.
* The "arms" on Kakuna seen in its {{2v2|Red|Blue}} sprite are commonly mistaken to be a sprite error, as they are rarely shown in any other media. They have so far only been shown on its Red and Blue sprite and a [[Pocket Monsters Carddass Trading Cards|Pocket Monsters Bandai card]].
* Kakuna and its evolutionary relatives were designed by [[Atsuko Nishida]].<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/19980121112202fw_/http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/POKEMON/INTER/ATSUKO/INTER_AT.HTM Interview with Atsuko Nishida on Game Freak's website]</ref>
* Kakuna's English name resembles a Japanese name, translating perfectly into "カクナ", than its actual Japanese name, Cocoon.
<!--* In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Kakuna is explicitly shown evolving more than any other Pokémon. How many times?-->
 
===Origin===
Kakuna appears to be based on the {{wp|pupa|pupal stage}} of a {{wp|bee}} or {{wp|wasp}}. Its tendency to dangle from a thread (as seen in the {{pkmn|anime}} and some [[Spin-off Pokémon games|spin-off games]]) may also be based on certain {{wp|parasitoid wasp}}s whose larvae construct hanging {{wp|Pupa#Cocoon|cocoons}}.
 
====Name origin====
Kakuna may be a corruption of ''{{wp|Pupa#Cocoon|cocoon}}''.
 
Cocoon is literally ''cocoon''.
