Card 185Twilight Masquerade #185 Pokémon Card

Applin, the Apple Core Pokémon, is a unique Grass/Dragon-type introduced in Generation VIII with the Galar region. This tiny Pokémon lives its entire life inside an apple, using the fruit for both shelter and sustenance. Its diet consists of the apple's flesh, which it slowly consumes, and it is said that when an Applin is separated from its apple, its body quickly loses moisture and it becomes weak. This symbiotic relationship with the apple is central to its biology and evolution. Applin has two distinct evolutionary paths depending on the type of apple it interacts with: it evolves into Flapple when exposed to a Tart Apple, becoming a Grass/Dragon-type with wings made of apple peels, or into Appletun when exposed to a Sweet Apple, becoming a Grass/Dragon-type resembling a pie. In the games, Applin is often found in trees, sometimes requiring players to shake them to make one fall. Its adorable and unusual concept has made it a fan favorite, embodying the whimsical side of the Pokémon world. Its unique design also reflects the agricultural themes prevalent in the Galar region, known for its diverse produce.
