Read more ↓Pineco is a Bagworm Pokémon, known for its distinctive, pinecone-like appearance. Introduced in Generation II with the release of Pokémon Gold and Silver, Pineco is a Bug-type Pokémon that evolves into Forretress starting at level 31. Its natural habitat is typically found in forests and near trees, where it camouflages itself among the branches, often mistaken for an actual pinecone. Pineco's diet primarily consists of tree sap and other plant matter, which it extracts using its sturdy mouthparts. Its behavior is largely passive, spending much of its time hanging from trees, waiting for prey or to evolve. In the games, Pineco is often encountered by headbutting trees. In the anime, Pineco is notably featured as Brock's Pokémon, showcasing its defensive capabilities and eventual evolution into a powerful Forretress. Its unique design and simple yet effective camouflage strategy make it a memorable early-game Bug-type. Pineco represents the resilience and hidden strength often found in seemingly unassuming Pokémon, and its evolution into the steel-clad Forretress highlights a significant transformation in both appearance and battling prowess.
