Starmie is a violet sea star-like Pokémon with a gold formation on its front. Starmie's jewel core, which can glow in seven colors, has developed to resemble a cut precious stone. A second set of arms has formed and is semi-attached, being able to spin 360°. Starmie can emit electrical waves from the core that are powerful enough to reach the furthest parts of the universe. It spins the star on its back to propel itself through the water and sometimes to launch itself out of the water and fly through the air for short periods of time. It can re-grow limbs and fire off energy attacks from its core.

Though nocturnal in the wild, captured Starmie have been known for surprising tenacity and enthusiasm during the daytime. It is unknown exactly why wild Starmie are mainly night dwellers; however, there has always been the conclusion that Starmie and its pre-evolution {{p|Staryu}} are {{pkmn2|extraterrestrial}}, implying that perhaps the night sky brings the species some sort of comfort in familiarity. The multi-color glowing of its core is also believed to be a method of communication inside the species. Starmie’s core is most commonly seen as red in color, which may be a relaxed or dormant signal as according to the Starmie communication system. The core will go dark if Starmie is knocked unconscious, and will sometimes flicker, similarly to a light bulb.
The multi-color glowing of its core is also believed to be a method of communication inside the species. Starmie’s core is most commonly seen as red in color, which may be a relaxed or dormant signal as according to the Starmie communication system. As seen in [[EP007|the anime]], the core will go dark if Starmie is knocked unconscious, and will sometimes flicker if Starmie is low on health. Because of its body shape and habit of sending transmissions skyward, some people believe this Pokémon to be {{pkmn2|extraterrestrial}}. Starmie is rarely seen in the wild, but can be found in the deepest parts of the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|ocean}}.
 
Starmie is rarely seen in the wild, as they require a {{evostone|Water Stone}} to evolve from Staryu. Their nocturnal behavior also decreases the chances of one being sighted. If they are ever found in the wild, it is in the deepest parts of the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|ocean}}. Its eating habits are unknown but it’s very probable it filter feeds considering the Pokémon’s lack of a mouth.
