Bellossom (JP) is a species of Pokémon in the series of the same name. It's a Grass-type Pokémon that made its first appearance in Pikachu's Rescue Adventure before debuting in the second generation games Gold and Silver. It evolves from Gloom by using a Sun Stone.

Physiology and Behaviour[]

Bellossom is a primarily green Pokémon with circular blue eyes and red markings on its cheeks. It has two bright red flowers on its head and green and yellow leaves around its waist that resemble a skirt, all adding to the appearance of a hula dancer. Bellossom's petals are said to be more beautiful the worse the aroma of the Gloom it evolved from. When it rubs the petals on its head together, it creates a pleasing sound. Bellossom does not possess feet; in the anime, its center-most leaves bent as it was getting ready to spring, suggesting that it uses its leaves as substitutes for feet or legs. However, the Pokédex does classify it as a biped.

Bellossom is often seen dancing and chanting. In particular, Bellossom dances when cloudy weather persists, or when the heavy rainfall season ends and it is drawn out by the warm sunlight. Being the result of an evolution via Evolution stone, Bellosom is rarely found in the wild, though they can be found in grassy plains, and are more plentiful in the tropics.
