Read more ↓Forretress, the Bagworm Pokémon, is a Steel-type Pokémon introduced in Generation II. It is the evolved form of Pineco, evolving when Pineco reaches level 31. Forretress is known for its heavily armored, spherical body, which is covered in a hard, spiky shell. This shell is actually made from its own hardened body fluids, which it secretes and hardens into a protective casing. Forretress typically inhabits forests and mountainous regions, where it often attaches itself to tree trunks, blending in with its surroundings. Its diet primarily consists of tree sap and small insects, which it likely extracts using its internal body parts, as its shell provides little external access. In the games, Forretress is often utilized for its high defensive stats and its ability to learn various entry hazard moves like Spikes and Stealth Rock, making it a strategic asset in competitive play. In the anime, Forretress is notably featured as Brock's Pokémon, evolving from his Pineco and becoming a reliable companion in many battles. Its unique design and defensive capabilities have made it a memorable Pokémon, representing the resilience and adaptability found in nature. Culturally, Forretress embodies the concept of self-defense and protection, creating a formidable exterior to shield its vulnerable core.
