Mothim is a moth-like Pokémon with two pairs of wings, one larger than the other is. The wing are primarily tan with an orange, oval marking on each. The tips of the wings split into small, orange squares; there are three on the large pair and two on the small. Mothim has orange eyes with gray, orange-tipped antennae running along the edges before extending and widening above its head. Its body is black with a patch of orange on the underside and a gray stripe down its back. Four gray legs and a small black tail that splits into two squares are also present. Mothim is a nomadic, nocturnal Pokémon that always remains on the move, searching for [[honey]] and nectar. Instead of gathering honey on its own, it raids the hives of {{p|Combee}}. It is a male-only species, with {{p|Wormadam}} as its female counterpart.
Mothim is a {{wp|moth}}-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with two pairs of wings, one pair larger than the other is. The wings are primarily tan with an orange, oval marking on each. The tips of the wings split into small, orange squares; there are three on the larger pair and two on the smaller pair. Mothim spreads steel-colored scales whenever it flaps its wings. Mothim's head has orange semi-circular eyes with gray, orange-tipped antennae running along the edges before extending and widening at the top. Its body is black with a patch of orange on the underside and a gray stripe down its back. It also has four gray legs and a small black tail that splits into two squares.


==In the anime==
Mothim is a nomadic, nocturnal Pokémon that always remains on the move, searching for flower [[honey]] and nectar. It has often been seen traveling in fields and mountains. Despite its diet, Mothim is never seen near any flower gardens. This is because, instead of gathering honey on its own, Mothim raids the hives of {{p|Combee}} for honey. It is a male-only species, with {{p|Wormadam}} as its female counterpart.

===Evolution===
===Form data===
Despite not having any [[List of Pokémon with form differences|form differences]], Mothim technically has three forms based on the {{fd|Burmy|cloak}} of {{p|Burmy}} it evolves from, though this is only shown in its internal data.
 
However, a Mothim from {{g|GO}} will always be in the plant cloak form if evolved from a Burmy whilst still in GO. The Plant and Sandy Cloak forms of Mothim can still be obtained by transferring Burmy to {{g|Legends: Arceus}} first and then evolving there.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Mothim and Wormadam are the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 424.
* Mothim and Wormadam are the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 424.
* Before [[Generation VIII]], the {{p|Burmy}} family had only been obtainable with their [[Hidden Ability]] in the [[Pokémon Dream World]]. Due to the closure of the [[Pokémon Global Link]], the Burmy family could no longer be obtained with their Hidden Ability, except by trading between games and {{pkmn|breeding}}. The Burmy family's Hidden Ability can currently be obtained via the [[Ability Patch]].
* {{p|Burmy}}, {{p|Wormadam}}, Mothim, {{p|Geodude}}, {{p|Graveler}} and {{p|Golem}} are the only Pokémon in all five [[List of Pokémon by Hisui Pokédex number|Hisui Pokédex]] sublistings.


===Origin===
===Origin===
Mothim is based on an adult {{wp|bagworm moth}}, which only fully matures if it is male.
While Mothim represents the adult stage of a {{wp|bagworm moth}}, which only fully matures if it is male, both its appearance and honey-thieving tendencies suggest that it may draw more inspiration from {{wp|death's-head hawkmoth}}s. It may also draw some inspiration from the {{wp|Pyraloidea}}, a superfamily of moths known for their nose-like palps.
