It evolves into Kurumayu starting at level 20, which evolves into Hahakomori via happiness.

Biology

Physiology

Kurumiru is a caterpillar-like Pokémon, with a broad, apparently bitten leaf enfolding its head. Its large, spherical head is a pale shade of tan, with a rounded, vaguely curl-like feature higher up on it. Kurumiru's eyes are dark and circular, with a crescent-shaped, toothed orange snout, and the underside of its face and neck is white. The rest of Kurumiru's body is segmented and green, with three rows of stubby, spherical orange legs.
