Read more ↓Mothim, the Moth Pokémon, is a Bug/Flying type introduced in Generation IV as one of the two possible evolutions of male Burmy, the other being Wormadam for female Burmy. Mothim is characterized by its large, colorful wings and a distinct, moth-like appearance. Unlike its pre-evolution Burmy, which adapts its cloak based on its environment, Mothim sheds its cloak upon evolution and becomes a swift, agile flier. It is known for its mischievous nature, often stealing nectar and honey from flowers and even from Combee, a Pokémon that diligently collects honey. This behavior highlights its resourcefulness and somewhat parasitic tendencies within its natural habitat, which typically includes forests and grasslands where flowers are abundant. In the games, Mothim is primarily a Special Attacker, boasting decent Speed and Special Attack stats. In the anime, Mothim has made several appearances, often in roles that emphasize its aerial capabilities and its interaction with other Bug-type Pokémon. Its evolution path from Burmy adds an interesting dynamic to its lore, showcasing gender-based evolution, a relatively rare mechanic in the Pokémon world, making it a memorable part of the Sinnoh region's diverse ecosystem.
