GrubbinSun & Moon #13 Pokémon Card

Grubbin is a Bug-type Larva Pokémon introduced in Generation VII, native to the Alola region. It is known for its strong mandibles, which it uses to burrow through soil and wood, and to grip onto branches. Grubbin is the first stage in an evolutionary line, evolving into Charjabug, which then evolves into Vikavolt. In the games, Grubbin are often found in lush, forested areas, particularly in the early routes of the Alola region, where they can be encountered foraging or clinging to trees. Their diet primarily consists of tree sap and soft plant matter. In the anime, Grubbin are often depicted as resourceful and resilient, using their natural abilities to navigate their environment and evade predators. While not a central figure, its evolutionary line, particularly Vikavolt, plays a role in various trainers' teams, showcasing its electric capabilities. Grubbin itself embodies the early stages of a Pokémon's journey, representing growth and the potential for powerful evolution. Its design, reminiscent of a beetle larva, grounds it in real-world entomology, making it relatable and endearing to many fans.
