Volbeat is a firefly-like, bipedal Pokémon. Its body is blue with two yellow stripes, while back, arms, and legs are black. It has a blue face with yellow eyes. Its long, curly antennae are yellow with black stripes. It has a glowing yellow tail, which it uses to communicate and draw geometric patterns in the sky while in a swarm. This is a male only species; {{p|Illumise}} is its female counterpart.
Volbeat is a firefly-like, bipedal Pokémon. Its body is black with a blue chest and abdomen. There are two yellow stripes across its front: one on its chest and one near its legs. A red band separates each limb from its body and a thicker, incomplete one surrounds its shoulders. Two simple wings extend from the band around its shoulder. It has a blue face with yellow eyes, and curly, yellow antennae with black stripes. It has a spherical yellow tail, which glows to communicate and draw geometric patterns in the sky while in a swarm. Additionally, the glow allows it to use its former [[signature move]]s, {{m|Tail Glow}} and {{m|Signal Beam}}. This is a male only species; {{p|Illumise}} is its female counterpart. Volbeat is attracted by the sweet aroma given off by Illumise. It lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|forests near clean ponds,}} but will move if the pond becomes dirty.

===Origin===
===Origin===
Volbeat appears to be based on {{wp|Lampyridae}}s (also known as fireflies) like its counterpart, {{p|Illumise}}. Its coloring suggests that it may have been based on the subfamily {{wp|Cyphonocerinae}}. Its appearance is based on a {{wp|Greaser (subculture)|greaser's}}, a subculture in the 1950's; their Japanese counterparts are the {{wp|Bōsōzoku}}. Greasers usually wore black or brown y-collared trench-coats and/or jackets with under shirts and also had heavily greased hair. This is shown in Volbeat's black colored "shirt", striped belly "under shirt" and "collar". The pose Volbeat is shown in its Sugimori art may also be a reference to greasers, as they are commonly shown with their hands either holding or popping their jacket collars.
