Drifblim, the Blimp Pokémon, is a dual-type Ghost/Flying Pokémon introduced in Generation IV. It is the evolved form of Drifloon, which evolves at level 27. Drifblim is known for its large, spherical body, resembling a hot air balloon or blimp, with small, cloud-like appendages and yellow, streamer-like tails. Its purple coloration and distinct yellow "X" mark add to its unique and somewhat eerie appearance. In the Pokémon world, Drifblim are often depicted as gentle giants, drifting aimlessly through the sky, sometimes carrying people or Pokémon. However, their nature is also tinged with mystery, as they are said to ferry lost souls to the afterlife. They are primarily nocturnal, appearing more frequently in the evening. As a Ghost/Flying type, Drifblim has an interesting set of type matchups, being vulnerable to Rock, Ghost, Electric, Ice, and Dark type attacks, while resisting Grass, Poison, Bug, and Fighting types, and being immune to Normal and Ground type moves. Drifblim has appeared in the Pokémon anime, often in episodes showcasing its ability to fly and its gentle demeanor. Its unique design and intriguing lore have made it a recognizable Pokémon from the Sinnoh region.
