([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ウルガモス''' ''Ulgamoth'') is a dual-type {{2t|Bug|Fire}} Pokémon introduced in [[Generation V]].

Ulgamoth has four small feet. It has six leaf-like wings, yellow and orange in color. Its eyes appear to be compound and are two shades of blue. The fuzz on its body is a smoky white and in tangles. Its bottom end is blue and its middle is black.

Ulgamoth releases fiery scales from its six wings to create a sea of fire. It is said that its fires can replace the sun when it is dark with ash.

Ulgamoth is based on a moth, particularly the {{wp|Attacus atlas|Atlas moth}}. Conceptwise, it may be based on a {{wp|solar deity}}, a type of god said to be able to control various aspects of the sun such as sunrise, sunset, eclipses, position, etc. Its wings may be based on the petals of a {{wp|Lilium philadelphicum|tiger lily}}, having the same number of extensions, black spots, and red-orange coloring. The head and collar of Ulgamoth bears a strong resemblance to the headpiece of {{wp|Hathor}}, which depicts the horns of the goddess cradling a disk representing the sun in between.
