Card 017

Grubbin is a small, insectoid Pokémon that resembles a larva, first introduced in Generation VII with the release of the Pokémon Sun and Moon games. It is known as the Larva Pokémon and is an Electric-type, a unique characteristic for such a creature. Grubbin evolves into Charjabug, which then evolves into Vikavolt, forming a powerful Electric-type evolutionary line. Its natural habitat includes forests and grassy areas in regions like Alola and Galar, where it can be found clinging to trees and spinning sticky threads. Grubbin's diet primarily consists of tree sap and other plant matter, which it extracts using its strong, sharp mandibles. Its behavior is characterized by its industrious nature, constantly spinning threads to navigate its environment, often swinging from tree to tree like a pendulum. In the games, Grubbin is an early-game encounter that provides players with a reliable Electric-type option. In the anime, Grubbin has appeared in various episodes, showcasing its charming and determined personality, often seen using its threads to overcome obstacles. Its design, reminiscent of a stag beetle larva, resonates with many fans for its simple yet effective aesthetic and its strong evolutionary potential.
