===Physiology===
Yanma is a large, red dragonfly Pokémon. It has a long thin abdomen and a comparatively short thorax. It has three pairs of two-toed legs and {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with two or more pairs of wings|two pairs of wings}} with red bands on them. Its head is red, except for its very large, bright green eyes, which take up most of the space on its head. Its eyes can see all around its body allowing it to have a high evasiveness, and the end of Yanma's tail has two flat extensions from the sides and two spikes in the center.
