Read more ↓Applin is a fascinating Grass/Dragon-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VIII, native to the Galar region. Known as the Apple Core Pokémon, its entire existence revolves around living inside an apple. This unique behavior serves as a defense mechanism; Applin hides from its natural predators, particularly bird Pokémon, by expertly camouflaging itself as just an ordinary apple. This clever disguise allows it to remain unnoticed and safe within its fruity abode. Applin is a small, worm-like creature with two large, leaf-like antennae that protrude from the top of its apple, giving it an endearing and somewhat mischievous appearance. Its diet consists of the apple it inhabits, slowly consuming the fruit from the inside out. Applin has a distinctive evolutionary line, branching into Flapple or Appletun depending on the type of apple it is given to consume: a Tart Apple for Flapple or a Sweet Apple for Appletun. These evolutions further emphasize its deep connection to apples. In the games, Applin can be found on trees, often requiring the player to shake the tree to encounter one. Its charming design and unique concept have made it a fan favorite, highlighting the creative diversity of the Pokémon world.
