On the back of its abdomen is are two black dots and a line that resemble a face; the face as been shown to change expression in [[EP123|the anime]].

Spinarak is a green {{wp|arachnid}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that resembles a {{wp|spider}}. It has black eyes with white pupils, a white horn on its forehead, and a pair of red {{wp|Mandible (arthropod mouthpart)|mandibles}}. On the back of its abdomen are two black dots and a line that resembles a face; the face on its back can change expression, as seen in the [[EP123|anime]] and 3D video games. There is an additional line encircling the end of its abdomen. It has three pairs of yellow legs, each with a black band around the middle.


Spinarak is a [[nocturnal Pokémon]] that lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|temperate and tropical forests}}. It spins webs that are strong enough to withstand having stones set on them and act as nets for fishermen. A patient hunter, it can wait for days for prey to become ensnared in its web. It senses what kind of prey has been caught by the vibrations in the web and its preferred prey is {{p|Cutiefly}}. Its poison is not very strong, but is potent enough to weaken caught prey. Spinarak and its evolution, {{p|Ariados}}, are the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] that can learn {{m|Toxic Thread}}. In the past, this was also true of {{m|Spider Web}}.

It spins webs that are strong enough to withstand having stones set on them and act as nets for fishermen. A patient hunter can wait for days for prey to become ensnared in its web. It senses what kind of prey has been caught by the vibrations in the web and its preferred prey is {{p|Cutiefly}}. Once its prey is captured, a motionless Spinarak will wait until darkness falls. Its poison is not very strong but is potent enough to weaken caught prey. As seen in [[EP165|the anime]], silk produced by a Spinarak can be used for facial treatments, as well as patching up skin wounds.
 
Spinarak and its evolved form, {{p|Ariados}}, are the [[signature move|only known Pokémon]] capable of learning the move {{m|Toxic Thread}}. Before [[Generation V]], {{m|Spider Web}} was its signature move.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Spinarak can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Ledyba}}. Both of them are {{type|Bug}} {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}}. Spinarak is exclusive to {{game3|Gold and Silver|Pokémon Gold|s}} and {{game3|HeartGold and SoulSilver|HeartGold|s}}, while Ledyba is exclusive to {{game3|Gold and Silver|Silver|s}} and {{game3|HeartGold and SoulSilver|SoulSilver|s}}. Spinarak are nocturnal, while Ledyba are matutinal. Additionally, their rarity is also reversed, with Spinarak being more common in {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|FireRed|s}}, and Ledyba in {{game3|FireRed and LeafGreen|LeafGreen|s}}. Both were also added to the expanded {{safari|Hoenn}} in {{v2|Emerald}}, and both can only be obtained by breeding their evolved forms in {{game3|Diamond and Pearl|Diamond, Pearl|s}}, {{v2|Platinum}}, {{game3|Black and White|Black, and White|s}}. Additionally, in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Black 2]] its {{p|Ariados|evolution}} swarms on {{rt|22|Unova}} while {{p|Ledian|Ledyba's evolution}} does so in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|White 2]].

===Origin===
===Origin===
Spinarak may be based on the {{wp|Theridion grallator|happy face spider}}, an arachnid from Hawaii with similar coloring and a face-like marking on its abdomen. However, it could be based on any number of spiders with face-like markings, including the Asian {{wp|Araneus mitificus|kidney garden spider}}, whose markings appear as a frowning face like most of Spinarak's official artwork; or some {{wp|jumping spider}}s, which have a similar build to Spinarak but do not spin webs. Like Ariados, it may draw inspiration from various species.
Spinarak may be based on the {{wp|Trichonephila clavata|Jorō spider}}, a spider with similar coloring found throughout Japan. The face-like marking on its back has however given rise to a number of other theories, including the {{wp|Theridion grallator|happy face spider}}, an arachnid from Hawaii with similar coloring and a face-like marking on its abdomen. It could also be based on any number of spiders with face-like markings, including the Asian {{wp|Araneus mitificus|kidney garden spider}}, whose markings appear as a frowning face like most of Spinarak's official artwork; or some {{wp|jumping spider}}s, which have a similar build to Spinarak but do not spin webs.

Spinarak is a combination of ''{{wp|Spinneret (spider)|spinneret}}'' or the verb ''spin'' and ''{{wp|arachnid}}''. ''Spinnerak'' is also the {{wp|Afrikaans}} word for ''spider web''.
